Stress field estimation and evaluation in eastern Hokkaido, northernmost Japan

Earth, Planets and Space
In eastern Hokkaido, a volcanic front extends in the northeast–southwest direction, and small eruptions have occurred in recent years. Although eastern Hokkaido is a low-seismicity region, we estimated the stress field using a larger dataset than those ...

Dependence of Coseismic Landslide Distribution Patterns on Fault Movement

Applied Sciences
Faults are the primary drivers of earthquakes and exert a strong control on rupture mechanisms, earthquake magnitude, and the spatial distribution of coseismic landslides (CLs).

Hexapod Locomotion Across Structured and Unstructured Terrains: A Data‐Driven Review of Modeling, Control, and Validation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of a hexapod is complex and requires integration between kinematic models, control systems, and sensing. Existing literature has reviewed these sub‐systems in isolation. Since 2021, there has been no review of the field despite significant advancements in soft soil, lunar traversal, and artificial intelligence.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

The Myth of Decarbonized Oil: Technological Fixes, Climate Delay, and the Politics of Low‐Carbon Fossil Fuels

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The idea of “decarbonized oil” has become increasingly visible in climate, energy, and corporate transition debates as oil and gas actors seek to reconcile continued fossil fuel production with net‐zero commitments. This article offers a critical narrative review of the concept, asking what political work the idea of decarbonized oil performs ...

Engineering Flexible Nanofibrous Hydroxyapatite Scaffolds With Tunable Degradation and Mechanical Properties for Bone Regeneration

Small, EarlyView.
Conventional hydroxyapatite ceramics are brittle and poorly resorbable, limiting their use in bone repair. To overcome these limitations, flexible scaffolds are fabricated using ceramic nanofibers as structural building blocks. Adjusting nanofiber characteristics allows modulating the mechanical properties and degradation, providing a versatile ...

Strong ground motion and structural damage in the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquakes: A comparative case study of numerical predictions and field observations

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract On February 6, 2023, southeastern Türkiye was struck by two catastrophic earthquakes (Mw: 7.7 and Mw: 7.6) along the East Anatolian Fault Zone, causing extensive structural failures and significant loss of life. This study evaluates the seismotectonic characteristics of the sequence, analyzes strong ground motion data against the Turkish ...

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

Symbolic 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 ...

Study on the Power‐Frequency Arc Extinction Characteristics of Semi‐Closed Short‐Gap Device

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐chamber arc‐extinguishing devices have a simple structure and excellent arc‐extinguishing performance; thus, they have attracted considerable attention as lightning protection devices. However, the structural parameters of different models of the aforementioned devices vary, leading to inconsistent protection levels; therefore, the arc ...

The Dark Pyramid: Unpacking the Multidimensional Nature of the Dark Side of Leadership

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The dark side of leadership has been employed as an umbrella term to cover an array of concepts typically concerned with the dysfunctionality and/or toxicity of individual leaders. As the field of leadership studies moves towards ‘post‐heroic’ perspectives, we apply the same ontological positioning, adopting a ‘post‐villainous’ perspective in ...
