Abstract

Pore-water pressure changes the effective stress and deformation of saturated geomaterials, while skeleton deformation generates pressure and drives drainage. Resolving this feedback together with hydraulic boundary conditions is necessary for simulations that connect consolidation to large post-failure movement. This paper presents a hydromechanical extension of GeoDualSPHysics using a single-layer displacement-pore-water-pressure ($u$-$p_w$) smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) framework. An explicit pressure-rate equation combines volumetric compression and Darcy diffusion, and the resulting pore pressure feeds back into the skeleton momentum balance. The implementation extends the existing modified dynamic boundary condition (mDBC) infrastructure to carry hydraulic ghost values alongside mechanical boundary data. Prescribed pressure at drained surfaces is combined with impermeable walls and impermeable loaded contacts, with separate control of loading and drainage activation. The formulation is assessed through one-dimensional consolidation, two-dimensional flexible-strip loading, and the three-dimensional Cryer problem. The Cryer simulations reproduce the non-monotonic central pressure response over four Poisson ratios, with normalized pressure root-mean-square errors of 0.012-0.030. The consolidation tests also expose remaining settlement and late-time pressure discrepancies. Applications to 5 m and 8 m sensitive-clay slopes illustrate sequential retrogressive failure and large deformation. The contribution is the integration of hydraulic feedback and boundary handling within GeoDualSPHysics; the results establish an initial verification basis while identifying remaining accuracy and convergence questions.

Interpretable Meta-Learning for Multi-Objective Chemical Search

Navigating the vast space of synthetically accessible molecules demands surrogate models that are interpretable and capable of handling multiple competing objectives at the same time. Deep learning approaches struggle to satisfy them under the computational constraints of quantum-level chemistry. Here, we introduce a modular pipeline that combines interpretable linear meta-learning models and adaptive-confidence uncertainty quantification into an Efficient Global Optimization (EGO) framework for multi-objective molecular discovery. For the first time, linear meta-learning is deployed in a multi-objective chemical search setting: by training across chemical objectives and cheap auxiliary properties, the meta-learned surrogates acquire transferable chemical knowledge that adapts rapidly to new objectives from limited data. Evaluated empirically on a real large scale search for spin-crossover metal-organic complexes, the baseline performs 78% worse in Pareto sense than the meta-learning alternative. We also address the calibration challenges inherent to active search. Since optimal candidates typically lie precisely in the distributional tails, standard uncertainty estimates fail. We introduce an adaptive confidence-tuning algorithm that dynamically recalibrates the exploration-exploitation trade-off as the molecular search evolves. Empirically, dynamic confidence tuning further dominates over 50% of the statically calibrated front.

Observability-Aligned Diffusion and Null-Space Completion for EEG Source Localization

Electrophysiological source imaging is severely underdetermined because the lead-field matrix has limited rank relative to the source dimension and strongly correlated columns. Scalp EEG measurements constrain only the observable row-space component, leaving a high-dimensional null space unobservable. We propose a two-stage framework coupling posterior diffusion refinement with deterministic null-space completion. A minimum-norm-initialized, singular-coordinate Posterior-DDIM sampler combines a spatiotemporal diffusion prior with direction-dependent measurement reliability to refine the observable component. A frozen ridge predictor and nonlinear temporal residual network then estimate the null component under explicit projection constraints, preserving the refined row estimate and its predicted EEG exactly. All learned components are trained exclusively on simulated cortical activity and its row-null decomposition, without paired EEG-source training data. Across simulations with varying noise levels, the method achieved higher frame-level area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and average precision, together with lower localization error, than conventional and learning-based baselines. Exploratory evaluations on evoked EEG and simultaneous scalp EEG-stereo-EEG recordings showed condition- and event-dependent concordance with cross-modal and intracranial references.

Restraint-Induced Loss in Software-Intensive Enterprises: Large A Verified Technical Economic Impact Model of Operational Downtime and Delayed Commercialization, with Tail-Risk Security Sizing and Three Enterprise Case Studies

When an enterprise must stop using a software component (for example, because of an interim court restraint in a technology patent dispute), the economic loss passes through a chain of technical mechanisms. Withdrawing the component exposes dependent capabilities. Fallback paths degrade throughput, correctness or feature coverage. Incident rates and recovery backlogs rise. Customers respond. Remediation programmes compete against the restraint clock, and planned launches are pushed back. This paper develops and verifies a \emph{technical--economic impact model} (TEIM) that quantifies this chain end to end as a probability distribution of present-value loss rather than as a point estimate. The technical layer combines (i)~a lattice-valued, fixed-point semantics of service dependencies with degraded fallbacks, (ii)~continuous-time Markov reliability models evaluated by uniformization and specified in continuous stochastic logic, and (iii)~a fluid queueing model of post-outage backlog. These feed (iv)~convex acute-outage loss functions with regulatory and contractual thresholds, (v)~compound-Poisson excess-incident processes, (vi)~survival-weighted functional, attrition and funding channels that provably avoid double counting, (vii)~a real-options valuation of forcibly delayed launches with an explicit closed form, and (viii)~a COCOMO~II--driven stochastic activity network for design-around and substitution strategies. We prove seven theorems and eight propositions.
