For many decades, it has been common practice to overlook the differences between response spectra and pseudo response spectra. This practice stems from analyses indicating that the average difference between response spectra and pseudo response spectra is negligible for a viscou...

Advocacy— Fürsprache : The situation of rhetorical speech and the history of rhetoric
Abstract This essay examines rhetoric from the standpoint of “ Fürsprache ” or advocacy speech. This perspective brings into focus the interconnections between rhetoric's legal institution, its form of speech and overarching objectives, and its particular linguistic procedures. R...

Abstract Hydrosilane-free access to iridium–silyl species is achieved via cleavage of unstrained Si–C bonds within pyridyl-based ligand scaffolds. Treatment of (triorganosilyl)methyl-substituted 2,2′-bipyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline ligands with a tris(boryl)iridium complex ind...

Whole-genome sequencing files are large, and a common shortcut is to analyse only their first few million reads. That is safe only if the order of reads in the file carries no information. We asked whether the shortcut distorts a rare signal, the share of reads made of telomeric...

Thinking with Objects. Understanding Non-Representational Cognitive Artifacts
This paper defends the notion of cognitive artifacts that do not serve representational functions. Contrary to the standard account of cognitive artifacts as representational, we argue that it is possible to distinguish a special class of artifacts that fulfill cognitive roles wi...

Separating Common-Factor from Covariate-Specific Spillovers: An Exact SLX Score-Test Decomposition
This paper studies the score test for spatially lagged regressors (WX) in SLX modelswhen the data may also exhibit spatial dependence in the lagged dependent variable or theerror term. Building on the exact score identity of Koley (2024), Sρ = Sλ + ˆ β′ncSθ, we show that the unad...

Physical activity is promoted in later life, yet its capacity to reduce loneliness or improve subjective well-being remains uncertain when social contact is incidental rather than intentionally designed. This review synthesised controlled intervention evidence and examined how so...

Abstract Laser powder bed fusion involves highly localized and transient heat input, resulting in steep thermal gradients and residual stresses that may lead to distortion, cracking, and non-uniform mechanical properties. Dual-laser powder bed fusion (D-LPBF) incorporates a secon...

Internet of Things (IoT) sensors deployed in agricultural environments frequently suffer from noise interference caused by environmental fluctuations, which degrades the performance of deep-learning-based anomaly detection. This work presents a hybrid pipeline combining a Butterw...

In Xanthomonas , RpfF is a bifunctional enzyme having both enoyl-ACP dehydratase and acyl-ACP thioesterase activities catalyzed by a single active site. While the hydratase activity is essential for producing quorum-sensing signals of the diffusible signal factor (DSF) family, th...

Abstract Sustainable ageing depends on equitable opportunities to maintain physical, mental, and social well-being, yet older migrants are often treated as a homogeneous group. This study aimed to identify sociodemographic and migration-related subgroups among midlife and older R...

The 40 hexagonal hexads of the E8 root system, when partitioned into 20 phase-conjugate mirror pairs oscillating at 132Hz, predict that glymphatic peristaltic micro-arousals encode a topological error-correction code suppressing stochastic gating fluctuations in voltage-gated ion...
