Bringing the expert to the fore: Learner practices for reproducing teachers' institutional identity during teacher-led and open pair-work interactions

Within the institution of the language classroom, participants for the most part display their orientations to the institution-specific identities of expert and novice on a turn-by-turn basis so as to materialize teaching and learning as the institutional business of this setting...

Identifying and explaining effective indicators in choosing financial software packages: English research companion to the 2023 Persian article

English research companion to the Persian article by Ghodratpanah, Malekian, and Kamyabi (2023), Financial Economics, 17(2), 25–48. It presents the study framework, Delphi method, and reported selection criteria for international readers. The original study assessed 48 criteria i...

Bony labyrinth taxonomic identification and long-term evolution of livestock in the Southwest and Central Asia

Abstract Southwest and Central Asia were pivotal regions for the domestication and dispersal of domestic herbivores. Here we investigate long-term variation in bony labyrinth morphology of domestic bovids (sheep, goats and cattle) across the last 10 000 years. We focused on the o...

Regional Hypertrophy of the Gluteal Muscles Is Task-Specific: Differential Responses to 10 Weeks of Hip Extension Versus Hip Abduction Training

Abstract Attarieh, P, Nunes, JP, Khani, S, Moniri, A, Goli, A, Negahdar, S, Mohammadinia, F, Fallah, MH, and Shahrbanian, S. Regional hypertrophy of the gluteal muscles is task-specific: Differential responses to 10 weeks of hip extension versus hip abduction training. J Strength...

Enhanced electro-osmotic microfluidic mixing in an obstacle-embedded converging–diverging channel

This work presents an electro-osmotic micromixer that contains an obstacle-embedded converging-diverging channel for the purpose of enhancing fluid mixing at the microscale. Based on the finite element method, a two-dimensional transient model for Alternating current (AC) electro...

Beyond the bounce: multiple tidal sign reversals and turning-point bifurcations in multi-horizon black holes

Abstract We investigate the radial motion and tidal forces experienced by neutral test particles in multi-horizon black hole solutions arising from Einstein gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NED). Focusing on the three- and four-horizon configurations, we examine how...

Durability and electrical resistivity of recycled abrasive stone aggregate concrete with GGBFS and polymer fibers

Although the use of decorative stones can satisfactorily meet architectural requirements, neglecting the wastes generated during stone polishing processes, particularly considering their chemical nature, may lead to significant environmental consequences. The present study invest...

Intermittent fasting in diabetic retinopathy: microbiome modulation, mechanisms, and clinical insights.

Intermittent fasting, a nonpharmacological approach, shows promise for controlling diabetic retinopathy but lacks concrete human evidence directly associating intermittent fasting with eye responses. This review highlights preclinical research insights about intermittent fasting...

The effect of various plant extracts on TiO₂ nanoparticles as efficient photoanode materials for natural dye-sensitized solar cell applications: Green sol-gel and a comparative study

The excessive use of fossil fuels significantly contributes to global warming and environmental damage. A viable solution to these problems is the use of renewable energy sources, especially the clean-energy potential of solar cells. This study investigates the photovoltaic prope...
