Driving Drugs Deeper: Force‐Driven Microneedle Systems for Active Therapy and Their Road Towards Clinical Implementation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Force‐driven microneedles are presented as active therapeutic microdevices that overcome the diffusion limits of conventional patches. By integrating gas generation, magnetic actuation, cavitation, or iontophoresis, these systems drive payloads deeper into tissue, enabling faster, more controlled delivery and highlighting key design principles and ...

Recursive Grid Indexing for Fast Non‐Uniform Quantization Without Binary Search

open access: yesSoftware: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To present Recursive Grid Indexing (RGI), a practical software technique for accelerating non‐uniform quantization and predecessor queries without relying on binary search at any stage. Design/Methodology/Approach RGI replaces conventional logarithmic binary search with a recursive, low‐branching grid structure. The method constructs a

Modelling Suicide‐Related Communication Dynamics: A Socio‐Cybernetic Framework for Governance

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Suicide‐related phenomena (SPS) are often approached through individual‐level risk factors or moral framings, yet their population‐level dynamics depend critically on how ‘suicide’ becomes observable, circulates and is governed across functionally differentiated systems.

Humidity Ramp Protocols Systematically Underestimate Human Heat Tolerance Limits

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Short dwell times in humidity‐ramp protocols (Δt/τ≪1 ${\Delta }t/\tau \mathit{\ll }1$) prevent human core temperature from reaching equilibrium, causing premature inflection points and systematic underestimation of critical environmental limits by ∼3°C–4°C.

Tailoring Model‐Based Systems Engineering for Sub‐100 g PlanarSats: A Power‐First View Stack

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses how to apply model‐based systems engineering (MBSE) to ultrasmall planar satellites under severe power and resource constraints. PlanarSats are sub‐100‐gram spacecraft built as single printed‐circuit boards where the same surface must host both electronics and solar cells, so power generation, geometry, and component ...

The 5T Paradox of Triclosan: From Toiletries to Toxic Trash, a Growing Threat to Humanity

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) persists as a contaminant of concern in the Anthropocene, despite regulatory actions. Environmental dissemination continues through wastewater effluents, biosolid application, and improper disposal practices. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence regarding triclosan's environmental fate, transformation pathways ...

Home range and core area characteristics of urban and rural coyotes and red foxes in southern Wisconsin

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Second‐order habitat selection is influenced by a variety of factors, including individual‐ and species‐specific traits and resource requirements, as well as landscape characteristics. By comparing home range characteristics across individuals, species, and landscapes, we can draw conclusions regarding whether and how different factors influence home ...
