Linking cognitive reserve to neuropsychological outcomes and resting-state frequency bands in healthy aging by Vanesa Perez, Vanesa Perez, Vanesa Hidalgo, Vanesa Hidalgo, Alicia Salvador, Alicia Salvador

“…EEG power was analyzed across four frequency bands: delta (0.1– < 4 Hz), theta (4– < 8 Hz), alpha1 (8–10 Hz), alpha2 (10–12), and beta (14–30 Hz), focusing on five cortical regions of interest.ResultsNeuropsychological tests did not reveal significant differences between the two groups on most of the cognitive measures. However, the EEG analysis showed that individuals with high CR exhibited lower spectral power in the theta and delta frequency bands across different brain regions, compared to those with low CR.DiscussionThese findings suggest that individuals with high CR tend to function more efficiently, relying on fewer neural resources to sustain cognitive performance. …”

A Study on the Spatial Perception and Inclusive Characteristics of Outdoor Activity Spaces in Residential Areas for Diverse Populations from the Perspective of All-Age Friendly Des... by Biao Yin, Lijun Wang, Yuan Xu, Kiang Chye Heng

“…The findings reveal that: (1) Common Demands: All groups prioritize spatial features such as unobstructed views, adequate space, diverse landscapes, proximity accessibility, and smooth pavement surfaces, with similar levels of concern. (2) Differentiated Characteristics: Children place greater emphasis on environmental familiarity and children’s play facilities, while middle-aged and elderly groups show heightened concern for adequate space, efficient parking management, and barrier-free facilities. (3) Technical Validation: Heart Rate Variability (HRV) was identified as the core perception indicator for spatial inclusivity through dimensionality reduction using Self-Organizing Maps (SOM), and the Extra Trees model demonstrated superior performance in spatial inclusivity prediction. …”

Weld morphology, microstructure and mechanical property of laser welded joint of Ti80 alloy by Fei Yan, Jingrui Liu, Gao Liu, Panpan Lin, Zhongmei Gao, Pan Zhang, Xiaoyang Lu, Peng Jiang

“…Rapid cooling during the welding process of 40 mm/s promoted the formation of acicular α′ martensite with a volume fraction of 99.5 %, refined the grain size to 3.3 μm and increased the hardness to 430 HV. EBSD analysis revealed that dynamic recrystallization (73.5 % recovered grains + 23.1 % DRX grains) dominated the weld zone (WZ), thus generating 96.2 % high-angle boundaries with an average grain size of 3.6 μm. …”
