Magnetic Field Effects on Q355B Steel Corrosion Morphology and Helical Anchor Uplift Behavior

This study quantitatively characterized corrosion morphology evolution of Q355B steel under magnetic fields (MFs) using non-contact 3D scanning. MFs exert a threshold-dependent effect on the corrosion morphology and spatial distribution of Q355B steel, while the macroscopic mass...

Multi-Phase, Multi-Method Usability Evaluation of an Enhanced Dosimetry Quality Assurance Checklist in Radiation Oncology: From Think-Aloud Testing to Near-Live Clinical Implementation

Most patient safety events in radiation therapy originate in treatment planning, and quality assurance (QA) checklists are widely deployed to mitigate them; however, these tools are rarely subjected to formal human factors evaluation before clinical release. Building on our prior...

The Persistence Index: Foundations of Persistence Measurement in Persistence Science

The Persistence Index provides the foundational framework through which persistence is measured within Persistence Science. The theory formalizes the Persistence Index, Ω = P/D where P denotes Persistence Capacity and D denotes System Decay. As one of the two foundational operati...

Unconventional Biexciton Dynamics in Superradiant Perovskite Quantum Dots Driven by Many‐Body Correlations

ABSTRACT Excitons and biexcitons emission traits, for example, quantum yield, lifetime, and coherence, govern device performance metrics including brightness, optical gain thresholds, and the efficiency of single‐ and entangled‐photon generation. Biexcitons are conventionally und...

Additionality and charitable support for public services: community fundraiser perspectives in a tax-funded national health service

Additionality refers to the idea that charitable contributions to publicly-funded services should enhance, not replace, state provision. While it is often assumed that donors will avoid substitution of public funding when seeking causes to support, longstanding traditions of char...

Oral health and systemic health outcomes: A call for interdisciplinary action

Abstract Objectives To make the case, from periodontology and dental public health, for interdisciplinary action on oral and systemic health, and to set out recommendations for practice, policy, education, and research. Materials and Methods A joint working group of the European...

Why Public Service AI Governance Frameworks Risk Failing in the Age of General-Purpose AI: Lessons from Policing

Public services face growing pressure to adopt artificial intelligence (AI) to close the gap between rising demand and falling resources. That pressure has intensified with general-purpose AI (GPAI): AI built on large language models that can be directed by prompt alone to perfor...

Exploring the structural relationships between soft skills, emotional intelligence, cognitive flexibility, and self-directed learning in the digital age: A cross-sectional PLS-SEM study of female students of king Faisal University, Saudi Arabia

Digital transformation has fundamentally reshaped higher education, creating dynamic and technology-mediated learning environments that demand more than technical proficiency. Students must develop strong psychological, cognitive, and behavioural competencies to navigate these ch...

Stretching a Concept to Breaking Point: An Empirical Audit of a Taxonomy of Conceptual Tensions

A glass-box creativity engine, the Concept Collider, rests on a single primitive: a concept is not merely a point but a structure held under tension, and pressing it along one of seven fracture types breaks it in a characteristic way. That taxonomy is load-bearing—every profile,...

The spacetime weave and its consequences: theorems, mechanizations, and a falsifiable register (TQNT)

Version 2 (August 31, 2026): acronyms, postulate labels and the bibliographic apparatus introduced and wired throughout (TQNT expanded, "Framework and notation" paragraph, name-first postulate glosses with point-of-use references, all 19 bibliography entries cited in text, STAR 2...

Comprehensive Phenotyping of Circulating T- and B-Cell Subsets in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis Associated with Crohn’s Disease

Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) associated with Crohn’s disease (CD) is a nosological form of spondyloarthropathies with a low population prevalence. The pathogenesis of this disease is not fully understood, and there are no precise differential diagnostic methods to dist...

Organizational Monsters and the Shaping of Systemic Irresponsibility

Abstract Organizational monsters populate capitalist societies and shape the conditions of systemic irresponsibility. Building on organizational sociology and critical approaches, I argue that organizational monsters are powerful yet ambiguously organized and unevenly recognized...

Conformal Symmetry, SM and Gravity

This paper is a bottom-up attempt to incorporate the standard model and general relativity in a unique quantum field theory. In particular, the tentative model presented here is free of chiral gauge and gravitational anomalies that appear in the divergence of currents and in the...

Exploring educational supervisors’ professional commitment: The roles of psychological capital, psychological empowerment, and professional competence

Background Educational supervisors play a pivotal role in teacher development and school improvement, yet little research has examined the psychological mechanisms associated with their professional commitment, particularly in non-Western contexts. Grounded in Conservation of Res...

Ballot Completion in Türkiye’s Concurrent Presidential and Parliamentary Elections: A Comparison of 2018 and 2023

This article examines parliamentary ballot drop-off in Türkiye’s concurrent presidential and parliamentary elections of 24 June 2018 and 14 May 2023. Drop-off is defined as the non-negative province-level shortfall in parliamentary ballots submitted relative to presidential ballo...

Exploring self-regulatory processes in League of Legends using think-aloud

Although self-regulation is widely recognised as central to performance in traditional sport, esports research often relies on retrospective or self-report measures, offering limited insight into how players regulate cognition, emotion, and behaviour in real time. This novel stud...

Genetic Structure and Population Affinities of Albanians: A Regional STR-Based Analysis Within the European Context

Background/Objectives: Albania occupies a key geographic position in the Balkan Pen-insula, yet its fine scale population structure and genetic relationship with neighboring European populations, remain incompletely characterized. This study investigated the regional genetic stru...

Qualitatively Investigating the Impact of Augmented Reality Interactions for Radiological Training

While the value of XR has been broadly demonstrated in the literature, there has been little empirical work seeking to establish where AR could effectively be placed within the training pathway. This is particularly true in radiology, where training relies heavily on anatomical c...
