‘Grabbing Our Land Deprives Us of Our Future’: Struggles Against State‐Led Land Dispossession, Demands for Justice and Citizenship in Dakar's Urban Outskirts

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How do people at the outskirts of Dakar struggle against urban land grabs and state‐led dispossession for urban development? How do they express the injustices they face and their demands for justice? What are they claiming, and what success have they had?

Experimental Characterization of PCI Sensitivity for Industrial Ultrasonic Testing Applications

open access: yese-Journal of Nondestructive Testing
Phase Coherence Imaging (PCI) is a recent evolution of the Total Focusing Method (TFM) in ultrasonic Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). Unlike TFM, PCI relies exclusively on phase information and produces normalized coherence factors instead of amplitude ...

FRAM for systemic accident analysis: a matrix representation of functional resonance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Due to the inherent complexity of nowadays Air Traffic Management (ATM) system, standard methods looking at an event as a linear sequence of failures might become inappropriate.

Integrating technical and scientific approaches to restore rupicolous plants threatened by climbing activities

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Rocky habitats are fragile ecosystems that host unique biodiversity and are increasingly threatened by the rapid expansion of outdoor climbing. In the northwestern region of El Bierzo (Spain), populations of the endemic rupicolous species Petrocoptis grandiflora and P. pyrenaica ssp. viscosa have experienced severe declines linked

Osteology and arthrology of the ankle and tarsometatarsus of anoles (Iguania: Anolidae): not convergent with geckos but divergent from the ancestral iguanian condition

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 1002-1025, June 2026.
Geckos and anoline iguanid lizards are well‐known for their possession of adhesive toepads, which are generally regarded as being convergent structures. We show that the anatomical configuration of the foot in these two lineages differs markedly and that these differences likely relate to the contrasing ways they deploy their adhesive systems and ...

Robust Beamforming for Ultrasonic Imaging using Wavelet-based Thresholding and Coherence Weighting [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Industrial Electronics, Control and Optimization
The delay-and-sum (DS) beamforming and delay-weight-and-sum (DWS) beamforming are primary methods in ultrasonic imaging with phased arrays. Total focusing method (TFM) and Minimum Variance (MV) based adaptive beamforming are well-known methods within DS ...

Silicosis, Sarcoidosis, and Silicosarcoidosis Are Overlapping Diagnoses and Difficult to Differentiate

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 313-322, May 2026.
ABSTRACT We evaluated 12 workers with documented exposure to respirable crystalline silica who were referred to a tertiary care center due to clinical suspicion of silicosis, sarcoidosis, or silicosarcoidosis. Although silica exposure is a well‐established risk factor for silicosis and has been associated with autoimmune diseases, mycobacterial ...

Managing maternity: Moving care, not patients, using artificial intelligence (AI), internet‐of‐things (IOT) and point‐of‐care testing (POCT) devices

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 173, Issue 2, Page 602-613, May 2026.
Abstract The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare is accelerating and maternity care is at a pivotal moment for the strategic implementation of these technologies. This article explores how AI‐assisted women's health innovations, often termed “FemTech,” may transform pregnancy care by addressing long‐standing disparities ...
