Regional Adjustments to NGA‐West2 Ground‐Motion Models for Turkey

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a ground‐motion model updating (GMMU) framework to adjust NGA‐West2 models for predicting a set of intensity measures in Turkey, including peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and pseudo‐spectral acceleration (PSA) at periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s. The GMMU framework integrates bias identification

Conspiracy Beliefs, Institutional Mistrust, and Health‐Related Behaviours During the COVID‐19 Pandemic in Burkina Faso: A Mediation Analysis

The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background No study has yet examined the conjoint role of institutional trust and COVID‐19 conspiracy beliefs on compliance with COVID‐19 preventive behaviours among populations of African countries. This study aims to deepen the understanding of the relationship between institutional mistrust, conspiracy beliefs, and health‐related behaviours

Experimental Factors and Techniques for Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement: A Critical Review

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review presents a comprehensive assessment of active strategies for enhancing pool boiling heat transfer, with a focus on techniques that do not rely solely on the boiling surface modification. It examines a broad range of methodologies including fluid additives, external fields, mechanical interventions, and thermal‐geometric tuning that

Ultrafast in‐memory computing and highly efficient deep neural networks driven by phase‐change memory materials with partially amorphous state transitions

InfoScience, EarlyView.
This work addresses challenges including the nonlinear weight‐conductance update and the trade‐off between increasing melting uniformity and reducing solid‐to‐liquid transition time. It utilizes all four melting states to create an integrated framework for attaining in‐memory computing and deep neural network applications. The framework achieves a near‐

Interaction Between Vortex‐Induced Vibrations and Base Vibrations in Piezoelectric Harvesters

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the present era, powering sensors using green energy is a significant challenge. One promising solution for the power supply of small sensors relies on piezoelectric energy harvesters excited by vortex‐induced vibrations (VIVs) generated by wind.

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

All‐sky assimilation impacts of the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder constellation on global weather forecasts

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Key Findings: An assimilation methodology is established for the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder (TMS) flying on CubeSats in sun‐synchronous and inclined orbits, and in all cloud scenes. The TMS has a significant impact on weather forecast lead times up to 3 days in the Tropics in a research‐quality numerical weather prediction setting, and yields water ...

COBASE: A new copula‐based shuffling method for ensemble weather forecast postprocessing

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We propose COBASE, a novel copula‐based postprocessing methododology that combines the strengths of multivariate parametric correction with non‐parametric rank‐based approaches. We consider two case studies for multi‐site temperature in Austria and multi‐site temperature and dew‐point temperature in the Netherlands.
