Plant Disease and Phytopathogen Research in Central Asia: A Bibliometric Mapping of Research Trends, Collaboration, and Emerging Directions

Plant diseases and phytopathogenic threats pose significant challenges to agricultural productivity and food security in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. This study aimed to characterize research development, scientific productivity, collaboration...

Contactless palmprint identification using CompNet on the IITD and SMPD databases

Contactless palmprint recognition is attractive for mobile biometrics, yet how well a learned representation transfers between acquisition settings is rarely measured. Using CompNet - a compact network of learnable Gabor filters and competitive coding — we apply one unified proto...

Hawking Radiation from Non-minimal Einstein--Yang--Mills Black Holes

Abstract We study Hawking emission from the regular magnetic black hole of non-minimal Einstein--Yang--Mills theory. The geometry is supported by a Wu--Yang charge whose Yang--Mills field couples directly to curvature through the non-minimal susceptibility tensor. This coupling r...

Decellularized extracellular matrix bioinks through a polymer engineering lens: tissue-source-dependent macromolecular architecture, crosslinking chemistry, rheological behavior, and 3D bioprinting performance

Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) bioinks are widely regarded as one of the more compositionally faithful hydrogel platforms for three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting in tissue engineering. However, the field still lacks a unified polymer engineering framework that links ti...

Field-validated modelling of coupler forces during freight-train start-up on a steep gradient

Restarting a heavy freight train on a steep gradient produces transient tensile forces because locomotive tractive effort is transmitted through sequential coupler-slack closure and nonlinear draft-gear loading. This study develops a longitudinal multi-body model in MSC Adams for...

ORGANIZATIONAL-PEDAGOGICAL CONDITIONS FOR MANAGING STUDENTS' INDEPENDENT LEARNING IN ENGLISH AT NON-PHILOLOGICAL HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS: A THEORETICAL ANALYSIS

Independent learning (IL) occupies a central place in English language teaching (ELT) at non-philological higher education institutions, where classroom contact hours allotted to the foreign language are limited and English itself is a secondary, non-core subject. The effective f...

Selective transport of plasma-derived reactive species through the plant aquaporin channels: a molecular dynamics study

Abstract The selective permeability of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), generated by cold atmospheric plasma (CAP), through plant aquaporins was investigated to identify plasma-derived species capable of intracellular delivery. Using atomistic molecular dynamics and e...

Multi-Layer Soil Moisture Variability and Its Hydroclimatic Controls in Tajikistan, Central Asia

Tajikistan is highly vulnerable to climate change and depends heavily on agriculture, making soil moisture dynamics critical for water and food security. This study provides a comprehensive assessment of soil moisture variability across four depth layers (0–10 cm, 10–40 cm, 40–10...

Energy extraction from a rotating Buchdahl star via magnetic reconnection

Abstract In this work, we investigate the magnetic reconnection (MR) process as a mechanism for energy extraction from a rapidly rotating Buchdahl star (BS), one of the most compact horizonless objects that can, in principle, possess a spin parameter exceeding the extremal limit...

Systematic evidence review on radiosensitizers and the abscopal effects of radiotherapy

BACKGROUND: The abscopal effect, defined as regression of non-irradiated tumors following localized radiotherapy (RT), is increasingly recognized as an immune-mediated phenomenon. Radiosensitizers may enhance this effect by amplifying radiation-induced immunogenicity and systemic...

Experimental and thermal performance evaluation of a PCM-enhanced solar water heater with a spiral coil heat exchanger

Latent heat thermal energy storage is an effective approach for enhancing the performance of solar water heating (SWH) systems by storing surplus thermal energy and delivering it during periods of low solar availability. In this study, the thermal performance of a solar water hea...
