Investigating parameters to control 3D-printed extrusions at the micro-level using PLA and TPU

The primary aim of this research is to investigate the extent to which standard Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) 3D printers can be explicitly controlled to fabricate flexible microstructures. Specifically, the study seeks to determine if manipulating automated toolpaths via geometric code (G-code) generation can c...

Benchmarking Post-Quantum Key Encapsulation in S3-Compatible Object Storage under Client Concurrency

Per-object ML-KEM against classical key exchange on an S3-compatible object store, with two client implementations, two processor types and up to 500 concurrent workers, using pre-registered experiments and statistical equivalence tests, shows that the size of the loss depends on the implementation.

Lossy Lorentz boosts at ultra-relativistic energies: Numerical study and source survey of high-energy physics software

Most high-energy-physics software packages implement Lorentz boosts for themselves. At sufficiently large boosts, these routines can return finite, plausible-looking four-vectors whose invariant masses and rest-frame properties are no longer accurate. We survey implementations in widely used collider and air-shower sof...

Are We Testing the Wrong Quantum Bugs? A Study of Fault Representation Gaps in Quantum Software Testing

This study audits four quantum mutation-testing tools and three curated bug benchmarks, and collects 410 verified bugs from ten quantum software repositories over two years to provide empirical evidence to guide fault models and benchmarks that capture these mechanisms and preserve the contexts needed to reproduce them...

Evaluating and Improving Static Application Security Testing Tools for Rust

An empirical evaluation of mainstream Rust SAST tools using security vulnerabilities identified in real-world Rust applications is conducted and a large language model (LLM)-assisted automated testing framework, TRUST, is proposed, which automatically analyzes the official Rust reference to derive and implement semanti...

Composition-Dependent Density Modeling of Chalcogenide Glasses: Empirical Evidence for Influential van der Waals Interactions and the Central Role of Lone-Pair Electrons

We present an expanded empirical framework for predicting the density of chalcogenide glasses (ChGs) and use it to examine atomic bonding interpretations across a broad compositional landscape. Building on our earlier methodology and dataset work, we compile 468 measured densities spanning 60 elemental families and 19...

Finite Nonlinear Mixing: Exact Bounds (R2.1)

Original explanatory preprint for the finite SIGMA nonlinear mixing model. It derives conservation, nonnegativity and a complete-step contraction under an explicit uniform positive-mixing assumption; reproduces a constant-fraction rational trajectory and its closed-form decomposition; and distinguishes injective from n...

A smartphone-integrated test strip platform based on a europium-based ratiometric fluorescent probe for on-site and visual detection of PO43- in milk.

Phosphates are commonly used food additives; however, their excessive use or long-term consumption may pose health risks, making their accurate detection crucial for food safety and human health. In this study, 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)imidazo[4,5-f]-1,10-phenanthroline (HNCP) and pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (H2PZDC) were...

Enabling large language model agents for high-fidelity many-body perturbation theory calculations

AI-Donkey is developed, an agentic framework that combines expert-curated knowledge with deterministic execution to enable high-fidelity GW, GW-BSE, and GWPT calculations and analyses and demonstrates autonomous calculations and post-processing on 1D, 2D, and bulk materials, including the many-body enhancement of Frohl...

Does Client Diversity Protect the Lightning Network? Evidence from the 2026 Core Lightning Shutdown

Client diversity is often cited as the Lightning Network's defence against a bug in any one implementation, yet LND runs 84% of public nodes and holds 84% of public channel capacity, a share that has barely moved since 2023. We test what diversity buys with a natural experiment. On 26 August 2026, amid security fixes i...

Requirements Don’t Live in Isolation: What We’re Exploring with Req-Space

Requirements in large systems rarely exist in isolation. Their meaning depends on the wider project context - other requirements, policies, decisions, tests, and implementation details. That becomes especially important when AI is used for review, because spotting a possible conflict or gap is only the beginning. ReqSpace explores how AI, visualisation, and connected project context can help reviewers understand those findings, trace the relationships behind them, and focus on the questions that…
