Triply‐Twinned Metamaterials: Unraveling the Mechanics and Failure Pathways Through High‐Resolution XCT

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 31, 2 June 2026.
Triply‐twinned architected lattices transform deformation from bending to stretching of struts, delivering up to threefold increases in stiffness and strength across polymeric and metallic systems. High‐resolution synchrotron XCT and image‐based simulations reveal how meta‐grain architecture, defects, and AM build orientation govern failure pathways ...

Combining SLA prediction and cross layer adaptation for preventing SLA violations

, 2011
Service-based Applications (SBA) are deployed in highly dynamic and distributed settings, where various parts of the constituent components -services and their infrastructure- are controlled by different third parties. In such a loosely coupled environment, adaptation capabilities are needed to manage deviations and unforeseen situations which might ...

Stepping Up or Stepping Out? Sustainable Livelihood Resilience, Heterogeneous Strategies and Poverty Alleviation Among Retired Fishermen in the Yangtze River Basin

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ‘Ten‐Year Fishing Ban’ policy in the Yangtze River Basin has compelled over 230,000 fishermen to cease fishing and transition to alternative livelihoods, making their post‐ban livelihood development critical to the policy's long‐term effectiveness. Drawing on household survey data from Hubei and Hunan provinces—which account for nearly 40%

SLAaaS: an OCCI Compliant Framework for Cloud SLA Provisioning and Violation Detection

Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services Science, 2016
SLAs are an integral part of all modern service provisioning operations. They have been a topic of discussion, research and development for many years but still the norm is the use of rigid, complex and not easy to automate Service Level Agreements. In this paper we are presenting a service framework that is leveraging the OCCI specification in order ...
