Foundations of Nature-Conforming Psychology
Despite significant advances in the study of individual psychological processes, the principles governing the organization of the human psyche as an integrated system remain insufficiently developed. Contemporary psychological theories provide detailed accounts of cognitive, emot...

Boosting PeroxideReactivity: New Mn(II) ChelidamateCatalysts for Efficient Low-Temperature Bleaching
Abstract The development of efficient catalytic systems for low-temperature bleaching is a key challenge for reducing energy consumption in laundry processes. In this work, five manganese(II) complexes derived from chelidamic acid were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as blea...

Multi-Scale Simulation of GH4706 Superalloy Turbine Disk Prepared by Integral Hot Forming
During hot deformation of GH4706 alloy forgings, to achieve effective control over the uniformity of its microstructure, it is first necessary to establish a quantitative relationship between the microstructural characteristics of an entire hot-formed turbine disk forging and pro...

AI Designed Conformation Locking Peptides Target STING to Restore Diabetic Wound Healing
ABSTRACT Diabetic foot ulcers are a major complication of diabetes characterized by persistent inflammation and impaired tissue repair, in part driven by aberrant activation of the cGAS‐STING innate immune pathway. Precision immunomodulation in the protease‐rich wound microenviro...

THE RELEVANCE OF SYNERGOI THEOU (1 COR 3:5-9) IN AFRICAN CHRISTIAN MISSION
ABSTRACT: This paper examines the Pauline metaphor of synergoi theou (God’s fellow workers) in 1 Corinthians 3:5-9, emphasising its significance for inspiring African believers to view themselves as valued partners in God’s mission and fostering a sense of shared purpose and dign...

For any field, there exists a time after which the minimum knowledge required to contributetakes longer to acquire than a human life allows. I argue this threshold exists given only twoassumptions: that knowledge accumulates, and that humans are finite. I then examine proposedsol...

Machine systems now produce results faster than readers absorb them, and machine-generated summaries are widely observed to emphasize the wrong material. This paper argues the failure is structural, not one of model capability. Given only prose, a renderer can weight content by p...

Monocular per-object distance estimation aims to predict a metric distance for each detected object from a single RGB image. Although monocular dense depth estimation and monocular 3D object detection are well studied, indoor object-level distance estimation remains weakly standa...

Understanding transitional phase uncertainty in rewetted peatlands
Moore speichern ca. ein Drittel des weltweiten Bodenkohlenstoffs und wurden über Jahrhunderte hinweg großflächig entwässert. Entwässerung führt zu veränderten CO2- und CH4-Dynamiken und erhöhten N2O-Emissionen, wodurch sich Moore von einer C-Senke in eine C-Quelle verwandeln. Die...
