High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The emergence of (ultra)wide bandgap ((U)WBG)‐based devices has significantly enhanced performance in high‐frequency switching applications, enabling breakthroughs in electric transportation, aerospace, and renewable energy systems. However, it also presents considerable challenges to insulation systems, such as electric motor winding ...

Electrical Breakdown Analysis of Emerging Oil–Paper Insulation Systems
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This investigation addresses the effect of particulate additives on the electrical breakdown strength of the oil impregnated insulation paper system. The morphological complexity is addressed by converting data from scanning electron microscope images to a data set suitable for numerical simulation analysis. Then, by using the conventional oil‐

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the fields of automotive electronics, power electronics, and aerospace, environmental conditions are often extremely harsh, particularly for materials that must endure high temperatures, high power and require high stability. The degradation of capacitance performance in polymer dielectrics under high electric fields and elevated ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This paper estimates the rate of chronic wasting disease spread in multiple regions and compares these rates with model predictions based on deer movement data. Abstract Rare long‐distance movements can increase the spatial spread of invasive species and shifts in species ranges. For wildlife disease spread, however, seasonal migrations may only matter

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Why and when do cities vote for the left? The emergence of the urban–rural divide in the United States in the 1930s is inconsistent with canonical theories of cleavages. This paper introduces an explanation: agglomeration effects. The provision of government services is more efficient in urban environments because of nonrivalries, economies of

Why did Putin invade Ukraine? A theory of degenerate autocracy
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Many dictatorships end up with a series of disastrous decisions such as Hitler's attack on the Soviet Union or Saddam Hussein's aggression against Kuwait. Even if a certain policy choice is not ultimately fatal for the regime, such as Mao's Big Leap Forward or the Pol Pot's collectivization drive, they typically involve both a miscalculation ...

Natural History of Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis: Implications for Interventional Trial Design
Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.In this nationwide cohort of 6894 patients with recurrent acute pancreatitis, recurrence risk increased progressively with each episode and occurred most frequently within the first year. Successive episodes were separated by shorter intervals, indicating an accelerating disease course and highlighting the importance of early preventive interventions ...

Multidimensional unipolar IRT and applications to the measurement of print exposure
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Item response theory (IRT) has been a prominent modelling framework in educational and psychological measurement. Traditional IRT models are bipolar, commonly assuming symmetric measurement link functions and symmetric trait distributions over a latent continuum unbounded at both ends. However, many measured constructs, such as print exposure,

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.
