Pavement Distress, Road Safety, and Speed Limit Selection: An Integrated Mechanistic–Quantitative Approach

open access: yesFuture Transportation
Speed management plays a critical role in road safety; however, conventional speed limits are determined based on characteristics such as geometry and traffic volume.

Dynamics of Size and Shape Variation During Embryonic Development in the Balkan Crested Newt

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Morphological variance in Triturus ivanbureschi embryos fluctuates during the tailbud phase, coinciding with developmental arrest caused by the balanced lethal system. Prehatching embryos show uniform variance. Our study reveals dynamics of morphological variability during early development and provides a baseline for further studies.

Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance of Underwater Swarms Based on Relative Visual Feedback

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater multi‐robot and swarm systems require advanced methodologies for controlling collective behavior. Conventional single‐robot techniques, such as tethering, sonar imaging, and acoustic localization, are not scalable or effective for swarm applications.

Looking for Trouble: Pre‐Intervention Monitoring in Human and AI Driver Training

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
We compare two types of situations involving monitoring of car driving: a driving instructor overseeing a trainee driver and a safety driver overseeing the performance of autonomous vehicle (AV) software. Our focus is on instances of monitoring that precede (1) interventions that are aborted before impacting the driving and (2) actual interventions on ...

Incorporating vehicle mix in stimulus-response car-following models

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2016
The objective of this paper is to incorporate vehicle mix in stimulus-response car-following models. Separate models were estimated for acceleration and deceleration responses to account for vehicle mix via both movement state and vehicle type.

When Time Stands Still: The Destructive Experience of Ambiguous Loss among Mothers of Combat Soldiers

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
What happens when stories refuse coherence? This article examines ambiguous loss among mothers of combat soldiers, focusing on how prolonged waiting and uncertainty infiltrate everyday life, eroding sensemaking. Drawing on ethnographic interviews, it explores how mothers experience the contraction of time and space—manifested in suspended routines ...

Understanding the Dynamics of Mechanically Interlocked Molecular Systems via Metadynamics Simulations

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This Personal Account discusses how molecular simulations help uncover motion, shuttling mechanisms, and kinetics in mechanically interlocked molecules such as rotaxanes and catenanes. Mechanically interlocked molecules, such as rotaxanes and catenanes, display complex internal dynamics and reciprocal motions that are central to their use as artificial

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Monitoring GPS‐collared moose by ground versus drone approaches: efficiency and disturbance effects

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Efficient wildlife management requires precise monitoring methods, for example to estimate population density, reproductive success, and survival. Here, we compared the efficiency of drone (equipped with a RGB camera) and ground approaches to detect and observe GPS‐collared female moose Alces alces and their calves. We also quantified how drone (n = 42)
