Using Wearable Sensors To Trigger Visual Safety Overlays In Augmented Reality, Sumukh Shevde Sep 2026

Using Wearable Sensors To Trigger Visual Safety Overlays In Augmented Reality, Sumukh Shevde

Defensive Publications Series

Individuals experiencing a fear of heights may suffer sudden panic attacks in elevated real-world environments, and traditional coping methods typically lack immediate visual interventions. A disclosed system may provide real-time assistance by utilizing a wearable device to monitor physiological stress indicators, such as heart rate variability and electrodermal activity. A processing device may evaluate these physiological parameters alongside environmental altitude data to calculate a personalized stress score. If a calculated score exceeds an established threshold, a display device, such as augmented reality glasses, may render virtual safety elements within a visual field of a user. These visual interventions, which may …


In-Situ Metrological Reporting And Asset-Embedded Quality Annotation, Hp Inc Sep 2026

In-Situ Metrological Reporting And Asset-Embedded Quality Annotation, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

A surface-inspection system is described that acquires position-referenced measurements as it moves across a target surface, calculates local quality information while the measurements are acquired, and deposits localized markings at the corresponding physical positions. A controller combines coordinate and measurement data to maintain a surface map, applies selected acceptance criteria to local regions of that map, and generates marking instructions for a printer or other marking assembly. The markings may include numeric values, pass or fail symbols, contour lines, corrective-action regions, or machine-readable codes that identify the local data. The result is a persistent, surface-anchored quality record that can be …


A Cognitive Accessibility Framework For Mitigating Resumption Lag Using Transitional Context Lobbies, Rachit Mathur, Payal Shah Sep 2026

A Cognitive Accessibility Framework For Mitigating Resumption Lag Using Transitional Context Lobbies, Rachit Mathur, Payal Shah

Defensive Publications Series

This disclosure presents a cognitive accessibility framework designed to mitigate "resumption lag" and severe cognitive friction during task resumption in modern software ecosystems. While existing operating systems and web browsers facilitate context-switching away from tasks, they universally lack a mechanism to re-onboard users when they switch back, forcing users to manually reconstruct their working memory. To address this accessibility barrier, we introduce Transitional Context Lobbies—an additional strategic UI layer that re-orients users returning to suspended workspaces. The primary inventive step is a client-side engine utilizing Teleological Intent Parsing to translate a user's past behaviors, interactions, and browsing data into a …

Response Of The Eddystone Lighthouse To Storm-Wave Impacts, Davide Banfi, Alison Raby, Geoffrey Bullock, David Simmonds Sep 2026

Response Of The Eddystone Lighthouse To Storm-Wave Impacts, Davide Banfi, Alison Raby, Geoffrey Bullock, David Simmonds

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics

Structural response to wave action is difficult to predict due to complex wave–structure interactions, particularly for structures subject to impulsive loads from breaking waves such as rock lighthouses. This study examines the response of the exposed Eddystone Lighthouse, located some 21 km offshore from Plymouth, UK, using field measurements from geophones, video cameras and an offshore wave buoy. Accelerations and displacements are derived from geophone velocity measurements recorded just below the lantern during 3085 response events in the exceptional UK winter storms of 2013–2014. These are complemented by video records of breaking waves with estimated heights up to 10–15 m. …


Barriers To Psychological Care: Lived Experiences Of Adults With Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Hovhannes Nazaryan Sep 2026

Barriers To Psychological Care: Lived Experiences Of Adults With Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Hovhannes Nazaryan

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Adults with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) may experience significant disability-related stressors, yet mental health services remain underused within this population. Although prior research has identified barriers to service use among individuals with SMA and people with disabilities more broadly, there is less literature about how adults with SMA experience the mental health care system. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore lived experiences of adults living in the United States with SMA as they relate to this system. Guided by the biopsychosocial model and Andersen’s behavioral model, the study involved addressing the question: What are lived experiences …

Fully Anharmonic Infrared Spectra Of Neutral Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons With Up To 38 Carbons, Nolan J. H. White, Vincent J. Esposito, Christiaan Boersma, Louis J. Allamandola, Jesse D. Bregman, Alexandros Maragkoudakis, Pasquale Temi, Ryan Fortenberry Sep 2026

Fully Anharmonic Infrared Spectra Of Neutral Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons With Up To 38 Carbons, Nolan J. H. White, Vincent J. Esposito, Christiaan Boersma, Louis J. Allamandola, Jesse D. Bregman, Alexandros Maragkoudakis, Pasquale Temi, Ryan Fortenberry

Biology, Chemistry, and Environmental Sciences Faculty Articles and Research

Interstellar aromatic infrared band (AIB) spectra show agreement with presently computed anharmonic spectra for various types of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) determined using a novel semiempirical quantum chemical method. Since the AIB spectrum is a blend of emission spectra from a vast number of different PAHs, likely with an array of different molecular structures, the spectra for a sample set of 31 PAHs ranging in size from naphthalene (C10H8) up to circumbiphenyl (C38H16) are combined, giving consideration to almost all PAH structural motifs. The computed numerical quartic force fields coupled to second-order …

Toward Efficient Small Organic Molecule Electrooxidation: Catalyst Interface Engineering, Peiyun Zhou, Ligang Feng Sep 2026

Toward Efficient Small Organic Molecule Electrooxidation: Catalyst Interface Engineering, Peiyun Zhou, Ligang Feng

Online First

Electrooxidation of small organic molecules (e.g., methanol, urea, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural) represents a promising strategy to replace the kinetically sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water electrolysis, thereby reducing hydrogen production energy consumption and simultaneously achieving co-production of value-added chemicals or degradation of environmental pollutants. However, single-component catalysts often struggle to achieve efficient coupling between organic molecules and OER-derived oxygen species. This review addresses this challenge by highlighting the pivotal role of catalyst interface engineering (including reconstruction), drawing on our series of studies and relevant important reports. By constructing heterointerfaces, electronic structures can be modulated and intermediate adsorption optimized, thereby enhancing the …

Field-Induced Electrochemistry: Concept, Application, And Outlook, Jingyu Wu, Yingjie Ji, Shiyu Wang, Shuyun Yao, Xiaoxuan Wang, Kang Ji, Wanlong Bai, Chao Yi, Zhiyu Yang, Yi-Ming Yan

Online First

Field-induced electrochemistry has attracted increasing attention as a complementary strategy for regulating electrode process kinetics beyond conventional composition and structure optimization. Externally applied fields and local fields arising from interfacial polarization, nonuniform charge or spin distribution, defects, heterostructures, spontaneous polarization, and high curvature surface geometries can influence adsorption, interfacial electron transfer, ion and mass transport, and gas–liquid transport. This review summarizes the conceptual development from field-induced chemistry to field-induced electrochemistry and discusses field effects from a multiscale kinetic perspective, including atomic and molecular processes, nanoscale interfacial regulation, and mesoscopic and macroscopic transport. Representative electric, magnetic, flow, strain, thermal, acoustic, and …

Molecular And Structural Basis For Replication Initiation And Strand Separation By Human Mitochondrial Dna Polymerase Γ, Viktoriia Sokolova, Gina Buchel, S. Strock, Ashok R. Nayak, Dmitry Temiakov Sep 2026

Molecular And Structural Basis For Replication Initiation And Strand Separation By Human Mitochondrial Dna Polymerase Γ, Viktoriia Sokolova, Gina Buchel, S. Strock, Ashok R. Nayak, Dmitry Temiakov

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Faculty Papers

Defects in human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication can lead to somatic mutations associated with a range of devastating mitochondrial diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms governing the earliest steps of mtDNA replication and their fidelity remain poorly understood. Here, we found that DNA polymerase gamma (Polγ) forms stable complexes with RNA-DNA primer-template substrates, exhibiting greater stability and lower misincorporation than on DNA-primed substrates. Structural analysis revealed that Polγ interacts with the 2'-OH groups of ribose within the first four nucleotides of the primer, explaining the stability of complexes that utilize RNA primers. Although Polγ requires TWINKLE to extend RNA primers, its …
