Corporate social responsibility and sustainable consumption behavior influencing consumer purchase intensions in FMCG sector

Abstract The excessive use and mismanagement of environmental resources have led to the rapid depletion of natural ecosystems, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable consumption practices. In response to increasing environmental concerns and global initiatives such as SDG 1...

A Neuro-Symbolic Co-Pilot for Autonomous Driving: Post-Hoc Behavioral Discovery for Hierarchical Decision-Making

In the quest for Level 5 autonomous driving, a critical cognitive bottleneck exists between high-frequency mechanical reflexes and low-frequency semantic reasoning. End-to-end Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models provide strong semantic reasoning but introduce inference latency in...

An ecosystem framework for municipal asbestos removal as a material legacy transition

Abstract The phase-out of asbestos remains a critical yet underexplored challenge in the broader context of urban and regional sustainability transitions in Europe. Although asbestos has been banned in the European Union since 2005, recent European policy debates and Commission i...

Towards circular economy: policies and acts governing municipal solid waste management and innovation opportunities for inclusive solid waste management in Ghana

Abstract Rapid urbanisation in Ghana has outpaced municipal infrastructure, leaving cities like Accra struggling to manage daily waste. Municipalities and private waste management companies are struggling with significant uncollected municipal solid waste and a high reliance on u...

A Rare Case of GOO due to Gastro-duodenal Intussusception caused by Duodenal Polyp

Gastroduodenal intussusception is a rare pathological condition in adults, often associated with an identifiable lead point such as a tumour or polyp. We report a case of a 65-year-old male presenting with recent worsening epigastric pain, chronic dyspeptic symptoms along with po...

Distinct amino acid signatures and neutralization sensitivity of plasma- and CSF-derived HIV-1 subtype C clones

Abstract Background Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) offer a promising alternative for HIV prevention and treatment, with the potential to cross the blood–brain barrier. However, the extent to which viral genetic variation between the peripheral blood and central nervous s...

A Cubic Generative Model Unifying Logical, Quantum-Number, Magnetic, and Crystal Structures

This paper presents a unified cubic generative model linking logical transformations, quantum numbers, magnetic ordering, and crystal symmetries. Each domain shares three generative axes—negation, order, symmetry—forming an isomorphic Z2^3 structure. Embedding spdf orbitals, anti...

Unified Field Theory: A Nonlinear Electromagnetic Unified Framework with Topological Solitons

Abstract General relativity and the Standard Model are the two foundational frameworks of modern physics, each supported by extensive high-precision experimental data. They govern, respectively, macroscopic gravitation and the microscopic electromagnetic, weak, and strong interac...

A child-centred measure of tooth hypersensitivity for molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH-TH): development and psychometric evaluation

Abstract Purpose Children with molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) frequently experience tooth hypersensitivity (TH), affecting functional, emotional and social wellbeing. Various assessment methods have been used to investigate these impacts; however, there are concerns about...

Statistical Monitoring of Multivariate Count Data From Real‐Time Particle Counters

ABSTRACT In the pharmaceutical industry, production environments are monitored for bacterial contamination. Particle counters are increasingly investigated for real‐time monitoring of viable microorganisms using count data for different particle size intervals. Monitoring these m...

The journey of numbers from attention to motor processing: an embodied account of neural response to number magnitudes

Abstract Embodied cognition suggests numbers are linked to physical actions and sensory experiences. Additionally, sensory processing, thoughts or actions are modulated by attentional shifts/control. This study investigates how learned motor associations in individuals (finger-co...

Unified Field Theory: A Nonlinear Electromagnetic Unified Framework with Topological Solitons

Abstract General relativity and the Standard Model are the two foundational frameworks of modern physics, each supported by extensive high-precision experimental data. They govern, respectively, macroscopic gravitation and the microscopic electromagnetic, weak, and strong interac...

Order-Parameter Field-Theoretic Foundation of the Maxwell Distribution — Information Dissipation, Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem, and the Necessity of Statistical Equilibrium

The central result of statistical mechanics — the Maxwell velocity distribution — is derived in standard textbooks from the maximum entropy principle or the molecular chaos hypothesis. These derivations take a statistical postulate as the logical starting point and fail to answer...

Metal‐Half‐Salen Chemistry for One‐Pot Mineralization on Hydrophobic Polymer Membranes

ABSTRACT Organic–inorganic composite membranes combine the advantages of polymers and inorganic materials, yet their fabrication remains challenging due to poor interfacial compatibility, especially on chemically inert hydrophobic substrates. Here, we report a one‐pot strategy to...

The Carlo Field Engine Specification: A Multi‑Layer Framework for Contradiction, Mutation, Instability, Collapse, and Emergence

The Carlo Field Engine Specification presents a comprehensive, multi‑layer computational and meta‑mathematical framework for modelling dynamic systems that evolve through contradiction, mutation, instability, collapse, and emergence. It defines a full ontology for entities, field...

Mapping spatial patterns and determinants of Indonesian agricultural sustainability using the case of rice and corn commodities and their policy implications

Abstract Purpose Achieving agricultural sustainability in mega-biodiverse yet highly vulnerable nations like Indonesia requires a nuanced understanding of spatial dynamics and commodity-specific variations. Balancing food security and sustainability in developing provinces remain...

Economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions in Somalia testing the N shaped environmental Kuznets curve

Abstract Economic growth has played an important role in Somalia’s post-conflict recovery, but it may also have increased dependence on carbon-intensive sources of energy. This study examines the long- and short-run relationship between economic growth and carbon dioxide (CO₂) em...

The Regression Trap

Building on Daniel Kahneman’s account of regression to the mean (including his flight-instructor case), Silvan Tomkins’ theory of discrete affect, Donald Nathanson’s Compass of Shame, and recent neurobiological work on the lateral habenula (LHb), the paper traces a mechanism by w...

Finite Criteria for Simplicial States and Local Tomography toward Emergent Operational Composition

The companion paper on effective composition characterises, for a finite substrate without a supplied subsystem factorisation, the possibilistic support layer completely and the preparation layer for two reference classes, and explicitly leaves open the states-and-effects layer o...
