Informal carers’ perception on perspective taking when reporting as proxies about someone else’s health

Abstract Purpose Informal carers (‘proxies’) are often asked to report on the health of individuals who cannot self-report, either from their own (‘proxy-proxy’) or the patient’s (‘proxy-person’) perspectives. It remains unclear which perspective proxies find most useful. Underst...

Poincaré Foundations for the Nonlinear Vacuum Medium: Qualitative Dynamics, Stability, Recurrence, Bifurcation, and the Route to Complex Field Dynamics

Poincaré Foundations for the Nonlinear Vacuum Medium establishes a qualitative-dynamical foundation for the Nonlinear Vacuum Medium (NVM) mathematical research program. The purpose of this technical component is to specify which dynamical properties must be demonstrated from cand...

State, trends, and prospects of the residential complex market in Russian regions

This paper examines the current condition of the Russian housing construction market against the backdrop of macroeconomic turbulence. It investigates qualitative shifts in the multifamily residential complex sector, driven by tight monetary policy parameters, the phase-out of br...

Hierarchical Harmonic Weighting and an Exact Zeta-Value Decomposition: A finite construction whose infinite limit is ζ(2) + 2ζ(3)

This work began with a series of thought experiments about the nature of light, its propagation, and the way light may interact with recursively structured geometric space. While exploring these ideas, a simple hierarchical pattern emerged from the changing scales of the construc...

Thermokinetic, Thermodynamic, and Pyrolysis Analysis of Agro-Industrial Biomass for Bioenergy: Insights from Isoconversional Models and Neural Networks

Abstract The growing demand for renewable energy and sustainable waste management has driven interest in the thermochemical valorization of agro-industrial residues. This study investigated the thermokinetic, thermodynamic, and pyrolysis behavior of four lignocellulosic biomasses...

Challenges for a sustainable blue economy: A comparative analysis of resilience and coastal governance in Southern Europe

Coastal blue economies face intensifying pressures from climate change, biodiversity loss and systemic uncertainty, making resilience a central concept in coastal governance. This article advances a socio-ecological-technological (SET) system framework to analyse how resilience i...

On the Eve of the LLM-Driven Revolution in Deductive Verification over Rich Logics

This article is from the introductory chapter of the author’s PhD thesis at Nanyang Technological University.

P1.154. Delayed Unexplained Hemorrhage After Esophagectomy: Insights From a Nationwide Multicenter Questionnaire-Based Study

Abstract Topic Esophageal Cancer: Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Cancer – early outcomes and complications Background Delayed unexplained postoperative hemorrhage after esophagectomy is a rare complication. Due to its low incidence, existing reports are limited, and high-qualit...

Weyl-Root Temporal Entrainment for Non-Local Cognitive Flux — E8 Intelligence Research

Subjective continuity is maintained through the cyclical rotation of the 240 root vectors across the 8 invariant subspaces, preventing cognitive fragmentation during Weyl-group symmetry breaking. By modulating the 132Hz base frequency via φ-coupled resonance, the E8 lattice creat...

Explicit Self-Adjoint Operator for the Riemann Zeros: Jacobi Matrix Construction, Cardano Formula for J3, and High-Precision Numerical Localisation

We write down explicitly an infinite symmetric Jacobi matrix whose spectrum, under the Riemann Hypothesis, is the set {1/γ_n^2} where ρ_n=1/2+iγ_n are the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. The construction proceeds through: (1) the three-term identity ζ(s)=Li_s(z_1)...

An experimental study of the optimum position of the drainage gallery beneath concrete gravity dam

Abstract A gravity dam relies primarily on its self-weight for stability, making the control of uplift pressure beneath the foundation essential. This study experimentally investigates the optimal horizontal and vertical placement of a drainage gallery using a Hele–Shaw model con...

Beyond Language: How Structural Philosophy Challenges the Methodological Dominance of Analytic Philosophy

Philosophy has made linguistic-conceptual articulation its default test of serious inquiry. This paper argues that the resulting methodological dominance is not epistemically necessary. Relational and configurational organization can do more than illustrate conclusions reached el...

Biochar amendments as a regenerative agriculture strategy for soil health restoration and sustainable millet production

Millet crops are primarily grown in marginal, nutrient-deficient, and increasingly arid regions, where declining soil health significantly limits productivity. Biochar is a carbon-rich byproduct of biomass pyrolysis that is being researched as a promising soil amendment to improv...

Fiscal Burden and Health Access: Indirect Taxation and Healthcare Utilisation Among Rural Households in Cameroon

Abstract In many developing economies, the subtle yet pervasive influence of indirect taxation on household welfare remains insufficiently understood, particularly in the domain of health. This study investigates the impact of indirect taxation on healthcare utilisation among rur...

Impacts of Different Monin–Obukhov Parameterizations on Seasonal Turbulent Heat Flux Estimates Over Snow Surfaces

Abstract Modeling of turbulent heat fluxes over snow surfaces almost exclusively depends on the Monin–Obukhov similarity theory. Within this framework, this study evaluates the impact of different parameterizations, including roughness lengths and stability correction functions,...

Building Capacity at Home: Tribal College Faculty Pursuing Graduate Degrees Through a Reciprocal University Partnership

ABSTRACT Thirteen Tribal College (TCU) faculty in Montana are pursuing graduate degrees through a reciprocal partnership with Montana State University (MSU) to strengthen TCU capacity and expand local educational opportunities. All TCUs in Montana serve as community colleges for...

In-Situ Eutectic Ultra-High-Temperature Ceramic Coatings with Dispersed Rhenium Intermetallics for Reusable Thermal Protection Systems

Reusable launch vehicles and hypersonic re-entry vehicles experience surface temperatures that routinely exceed 2000 °C on leading edges and nose tips. Conventional ultra-high-temperature ceramic (UHTC) coatings based on hafnium or zirconium diboride offer high melting points but...

Comparative experimental and numerical investigation of engine-lubricant performance in hydrogen- and gasoline-fueled PFI SI engines

Hydrogen-fueled spark-ignition (SI) engines offer wide flammability limits, fast flame propagation, and carbon-free exhaust products, making them a promising route toward low-carbon transportation. However, their fast heat-release rates and elevated in-cylinder temperatures pose...

The academic library as co-producer of transdisciplinary engagement: A social exchange framework for resource mobilization and outreach

This paper introduces the Strategic Reciprocity Model, a framework that repositions the academic library as a strategic and fiscal co-producer of transdisciplinary engagement. Using the LACES (Lab for Art, Community, Ecology & Science) Library Mural Project at University of Malta...

BELL NONLOCALITY, RELATIONAL INFORMATION, AND MODAL ONTOLOGY

This article develops an expanded critical–propositional analysis of Alain Aspect, Jean Dalibard, and Gérard Roger’s 1982 experiment, Experimental Test of Bell’s Inequalities Using Time-Varying Analyzers, in systematic dialogue with the Theory of Objectivity (TO), developed by Vi...
