Development and Validation of an Occupant Biomechanical Model for the Aortic Injury Analysis under Side Impacts

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
Traumatic rupture of the aorta (TRA) is one of the leading causes of death in side impacts. However, the injury mechanism of TRA is still not clear now. In this study, an occupant biomechanical model for the aortic injury study was presented.

First train schedule optimization for metro systems considering minimum adjustment cost for special event scenarios

International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology
During special events, some metro lines and stations may alter their first train schedules to an earlier time, while others remain unchanged. These adjustments can result in longer transfer waiting times for passengers, negatively impacting the overall ...

Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard): An Aerial Robotic Swarm for Autonomous Detection and Entrapment of Rogue Multirotors

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard) is introduced as a four‐drone swarm that autonomously detects, tracks, and safely captures rogue drones using a coordinated net system. Computer vision and leader–follower control architecture enable synchronized enclosure, while integrated failsafes enhance system reliability. Validated through closed‐environment

Future of Urban Logistics

Internationales Verkehrswesen, 2013
Urban logistics, in fact, has become even more relevant and important today than ever before. There is already a paradigm shift in how products are being manufactured (3D printing) and retailed (transition to online channels) today and the supply chain as the common denominator at all stages of a product’s lifecycle must quickly adapt to the changes ...

Cigarette Smoke‐Induced Alveolar Macrophage Senescence via GEM/SIRT3‐Mediated Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cigarette smoke accelerates the aging of immune cells in the lung. By combining human single‐cell sequencing, cell culture, and mouse models, the authors show that the protein GEM drives mitochondrial damage and senescence in alveolar macrophages by suppressing SIRT3.

Long‐Term Ambient Benzene Exposure and Brain Disorders Among Urban Adults: Effect Modification by Genetic Susceptibility and Potential Mediation by Plasma Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Low‐level ambient benzene exposure is associated with increased risks of multiple brain disorders in urban adults. Genetic susceptibility modifies these associations, while plasma proteomics points to potential biological pathways linking benzene exposure to adverse brain health.
