Sustainable Skyscrapers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Architectural Engineering Technology, 2021
Increasingly, architects and engineers are interested in pursuing sustainable design. Yet, they lack sources that summarize best practices. As such, this review paper maps out and examines prominent examples of "sustainable" skyscrapers of varying geographic locations, climates, and socio-cultural contexts.

A Static Kropki Puzzle Pattern‐Based Shade Dispersion Technique for a Partially Shaded Photovoltaic Array

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 289-299, January 2026.
Kropki puzzle pattern for a partially shaded photovoltaic array. ABSTRACT Partial shading is crucial in reducing the performance of the photovoltaic (PV) array. The static reconfiguration is a viable option for alleviating the partial shading. The scattering of shade relies on its puzzle pattern.

Beyond PD‐1/PD‐L1: New Immune Checkpoints and Therapeutic Combinations in Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 61-93, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Recently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), particularly PD‐1/PD‐L1 and CTLA‐4 inhibitors, have revolutionized cancer treatment, significantly improving survival rates for various malignancies. However, ICI therapies targeting single checkpoints on T cells still face numerous challenges, such as low response rates and post‐treatment ...

Surface operators in four-dimensional topological gauge theory and Langlands duality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study surface and line operators in the GL-twisted N=4 gauge theory in four dimensions. Their properties depend on the parameter t which determines the BRST operator of theory.

A Fourier transform for sheaves on Lagrangian families of real tori

open access: yes, 2001
We systematically develop a transform of the Fourier-Mukai type for sheaves on symplectic manifolds $X$ of any dimension fibred in Lagrangian tori. One obtains a bijective correspondence between unitary local systems supported on Lagrangian submanifolds ...

Camp Time: Heterochronies in ‘Other Spaces'

open access: yesPopulation, Space and Place, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Contemporary global apartheid is built upon temporal discord, with refugee camps playing a central role. Yet camp studies have largely neglected the temporal dimensions of displacement, leading to reductive notions of time in the camp as a paradox of permanent temporariness.
