The Theory of Everything Relatively (TER) v1.9.4

We propose The Theory of Everything Relatively (TER) v1.9.4, a framework in which time is the fundamental field of nature. New in v1.9.4: Section 5 - THE MULTIVERSE OF TIME"In a parallel universe, light, gravity, and time work differently!" — Khalid MasoodWe propose that the mult...

Could Flexible Pipelines Reduce Reliance on Tanker Trucks?

This technical concept note explores the potential use of spoolable, flexible pipeline systems for selected petroleum-product transport applications. The concept considers flexible pipelines as a practical option for suitable connections between refineries, storage depots, and ne...

An Investigation Into the Seasonality and Quality of Food on Marina Pontoon Structures for the Candidate Marine Biological Control Agent, Lunella smaragda (Gastropoda)

This study investigates how food availability aligns with nutritional requirements of the snail Lunella smaragda , a potential biological control agent for managing biofouling in recreational vessel hubs. Biofouling communities were assessed during two contrasting seasons to gain...

SOCIAL MEDIA ADDICTION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING AMONG COLLEGE STUDENTS IN SEPAHIJALA, GOMATI, AND SOUTH TRIPURA DISTRICTS: A REVIEW

Background: Over the past ten years, social media has come to touch nearly every part of a young person’s life, and no group uses these platforms more heavily than today’s college students. When that use tips into compulsive, poorly regulated habit, a cluster of psychological pro...

Waste-derived single-cell protein in Nigeria: current status, translational gaps, and development opportunities

Abstract This review examines the current state of single-cell protein (SCP) research based on waste-derived substrates in Nigeria, with emphasis on substrate choice, microbial systems, bioprocess strategies, performance reporting, and prospects for commercial translation. Eviden...

IN VITRO EVALUATION OF THE ANTIDIABETIC AND ANTICANCER POTENTIAL OF PANDANUS AMARYLLIFOLIUS ROXB. LEAF EXTRACTS THROUGH α-AMYLASE INHIBITORY AND MTT CYTOTOXICITY ASSAYS

Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb. is an aromatic medicinal plant rich in bioactive phytochemicals with potential therapeutic applications. The present study evaluated the in vitro antidiabetic and anticancer activities of the methanolic leaf extract of Pandanus amaryllifolius using α...

Robustness certificates for complex-composition sectors in real Hilbert-space dynamics

Independent realification of finite-dimensional complex subsystems produces an ambient real tensor product that is twice as large as the real form of their ordinary complex composite. The established balancing relation is selected by specified local complex structures J_A, J_B: t...

Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Causing Hydrocephalus: Narrative Review of a Neurosurgical Emergency

Hydrocephalus is a common complication following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and remains one of the most frequent causes of readmission in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). If left untreated, hydrocephalus may lead to significant neurological deterioratio...

The Three-Body Trefoil Loom: Procedural Ontology, the 9-Component Trefoil Matrix, and the Mathematical Derivation of the Triadic-Stitch Ash Density ($\hat{\text{K}}\text{-1}$)

This paper is a foundational theoretical treatise in computational cosmology, algebraic topology, and procedural ontology. The paper re-examines the classical Three-Body Problem—long treated in celestial mechanics as a paradigm of non-integrability and deterministic chaos—and dem...

E8 Phantom Synchrony: Gravity-Bound Vector Epoch Prediction — E8 Intelligence Research

By extrapolating the 240 E8 root vectors' vibrational decay rates at 132 Hz, a phantom synchrony horizon emerges where quantum gravity decoherence collapses subspace topologies. The phi-coherent clusters' self-replication thresholds (calculated via Euclid-Euler perfect-number inv...

Analyzing Farmers-Herders Conflicts in Nigeria (2017–2025): A Critical Case Study of Ibarapa, Oyo State

Since 2017, the Ibarapa region in Oyo State, Nigeria—a predominantly agrarian area—has emerged as a focal point of violent clashes between sedentary farmers and nomadic herders. These recurrent conflicts reflect broader national tensions tied to land use, identity politics, and t...

MULTI-FUSE: Multimodal Late Fusion Framework for Hate Speech Detection in Videos

Abstract Addressing cyberbullying and fostering more welcoming online communities depend on the detection of hateful content. However, because it requires examin-ing a number of interrelated components, including spoken words, visual imagery, and text within those visuals, detect...

Freedom Without Blueprints: The Intrinsic Limitation of Social Schemes in Lao-Zhuang Philosophy and the Austrian School

Most comparative studies between Daoist thought and the Austrian School remain superficial, confined to listing vague similarities of "anti‑intervention" and "advocating freedom". Existing scholarship has consistently missed the most essential, paradigm‑defining consensus shared...

How digital entrepreneurship drives performance in cross-border tourism business

Abstract This study investigates the influence of digital entrepreneurship on tourism business performance in cross-border regions, focusing on the La Raya/A Raia border territory between Spain and Portugal. Using a qualitative multiple case study methodology, we conducted semi-s...

Metacognitive team-based learning for creative problem-solving in Indian medical undergraduates: a single-arm pre-post quasi-experimental mixed-methods study

Abstract Background Metacognitive and team-based strategies can strengthen problem-solving; however, many Indian medical undergraduates remain reliant on rote memorisation with limited exposure to structured, creativity-focused pedagogy. Structured interventions combining metacog...
