To ensure that surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters fulfill the requirements of Carrier Aggregation (CA) applications, the development of modeling tools that can forecast and simulate high-frequency spurious responses has been necessary. This paper pr...
The surface acoustic wave (SAW) gyroscopic effect in an interdigital transducer (IDT) deposited on a piezoelectric substrate is different from that in the piezoelectric substrate due to a reflection induced by IDT. In this work, an extended coupling-...
Accurate Calcium Oxalate Monohydrate (COM) solubility measurements are essential for elucidating the physiochemical mechanism behind the formation of kidney stones, nephrolithiasis. Yet the reported solubility values of COM in ultrapure water, arguab...
This paper investigates the locomotion of bipedal robots, with a focus on knee-extended walking. While knee joint extension is essential for efficient human walking, humanoid robots face challenges such as pose singularities, and traditional control...
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system and has a high lethal rate despite therapeutic advances. Although immunotherapies have achieved great success in solid tumors, the highly immunosuppressive tumo...
Early-age cracking of tunnel lining concrete under adverse curing threatens long-term durability. This study integrates material-scale testing, structural-scale testing, and multiscale simulation to investigate cracking behavior and prevention strate...
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs), which consist of numerous passive reflecting elements, have emerged as a prominent technology to enhance energy and spectral efficiency for future wireless networks. RISs have the capability to intelligentl...
In order to perform various complex tasks in place of humans, humanoid robots should walk robustly in the presence of interference. In the paper, an improved model predictive control (MPC) method based on the divergent components of motion (DCM) is p...
The purpose of this study is to explore how pro-environmental energy behavior is manifested at a military unit and what behavioral change factors can enhance such behavior. The military unit represents an organization dominated by an exceptionally st...
Coupling hydrological modelling systems (HMS) with a geographic information system (GIS) can significantly enhance hydrological research and expand its applications. The calculation for HMS requires geographic information data; however, the current G...

This study developed a speech database for assessing one of the elements of physical literacy—physical competence. Thirty-one healthy and native Cantonese speakers were instructed to read a material aloud after various exercises. The speech dat...
Background: Accurate identification of EGFR-mutant, KRAS-mutant, and triple-negative (TN) LUAD driver mutation subtypes is essential for guiding targeted therapy, yet standard molecular testing is invasive and not always feasible. Gene expression-bas...
We report on a sensor data fusion algorithm via an extended Kalman filter for estimating the spatial motion of a bipedal robot. Through fusing the sensory information from joint encoders, a 6-axis inertial measurement unit and a 2-axis inclinometer,...

Electronic word of mouth (eWOM) is a powerful form of online communication that strongly influences consumer purchasing behaviour. However, what remains less clear is the combined influence of situational factors versus personality traits when assess...
This study involved a detailed analysis of an energy distribution strategy and the parameters of key components of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). In order to better utilize the advantages of multiple energy sources, the wavelet-fuzzy energy man...
Poor solid waste management in Kisumu, Kenya, contributes to adverse health, social, and environmental outcomes as a result of open burning, illegal dumping, and reliance on landfills. Taking Kisumu as a case study, we use behavioural systems mapping...
As the culture and tourism industry moves toward high-quality development, tourist perception has become a core dimension for measuring that quality. Most existing work on tourism spatial differentiation still looks at the supply side, and describes...
The increasing complexity of products and manufacturing processes, combined with the constantly advancing technological integration of the manufacturing sector, raised new challenges for world-class industries to optimize time-to-market, resources, a...
Reinforced concrete flat slab design commonly relies on a fragmented workflow: finite element models are built through graphical interfaces, reinforcement demands are manually interpreted, and code-compliance checks are performed separately. This fra...
Guests weight negative and positive attribute performance asymmetrically, and destination and culture shape service expectations. Whether destination alters this asymmetry itself has received little direct testing. Extending stimulus–organism&n...
Contemporary enterprise IT operations are largely implemented on Shannon–Turing computing models in which programs execute read–compute–write cycles over data structures, while governance—fault handling, configuration control,...
The field of self-adaptive software is becoming increasingly crucial because software has to adapt its behavior at runtime to keep up with dynamic and constantly evolving environments. The ability of software to modify and adjust itself is known as a...
