Characteristic Differences of Wind-Blown Sand Flow Field of Expressway Bridge and Subgrade and Their Implications on Expressway Design

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Bridges and subgrades are the main route forms for expressways. The ideal form for passing through sandy areas remains unclear. This study aims to understand the differences in the influence of expressway bridges and subgrades on the near-surface blown ...

Acute kidney injury in a dog after ingestion of homemade modelling dough containing cream of tartar (potassium bitartrate)

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, November 2026.
Summary A 16‐month‐old, male, neutered cocker spaniel developed gastrointestinal signs following ingestion of a homemade modelling dough containing cream of tartar. Blood biochemistry (29 hours post‐ingestion) showed elevated creatinine, urea and symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA).

Interpreting Non‐Linear Compaction Mechanics of Expansive Soils Using Reliability Calibrated Framework

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
This study introduces a reliability‐calibrated machine learning framework to predict the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of heterogeneous soils. By integrating 15 algorithms with conformal prediction, the models deliver accurate compaction estimates alongside rigorous, distribution‐free 90% confidence intervals.
