    Abstract Shallow, rain-induced landslides are often described with an infinite slope model, which considers the stresses acting on a slope’s slice to calculate the factor of safety. In this paper, a literature review is conducted to assess different approaches to this physically based method, considering the success of various assumptions about traditional slope stability. These […]

    Author: Darynne Lee Peer Reviewer: Lauren Cho Professional Reviewer: James Truncer “Sustainability is the ability to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of the future generations to meet their own needs” (“1987: Brundtland,” n.d.). Over the years, conventional agri-farming and aqua-farming have led to many unsustainable practices. Conventional agri-farming has depleted […]

    Abstract Artificial Intelligence mimics human learning through algorithms and data analysis, with applications to visual art. Recent advances in AI art generators have raised concerns that these models may replace human artists one day.  This paper considers various evidence on artistic quality, public reception, and economic impact to investigate this possibility. I reject the extreme […]

    We analyze the relationship between Maxwell’s equations and two types of transformations of frame of reference: the Galilean transformation and the Lorentz transformation. To enhance our understanding of Maxwell’s equations, we first introduce the del operator and its operations: gradient, divergence, and curl. Then, we explain Maxwell’s equations in differential form and illustrate the equations’ […]

    Abstract Nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as valuable tools for various biomedical applications; however, their applications are often limited due to a lack of specificity which leads to adverse side effects. The functionalization of NPs with ligands offers many benefits: improved biocompatibility, extended circulation times, facilitated active targeting, improved receptor-mediated uptake, and induced cellular responses. These […]

    Zhan Peng1, Ting Zhang11 Shanghai World Foreign Language Academy, Shanghai, China Abstract Addressing the growing demand for energy-efficient and self-powered systems, we fabricated pyroelectric generators (PEGs) based on the Mn-doped Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (Mn-PIMNT) ferroelectric single crystals with high pyroelectric properties to convert thermal energy from environment into electricity. The purpose of this work was to develop […]

    Abstract The widespread adoption of advanced Artificial Intelligence models has integrated algorithmic decision-making into numerous fields, providing both benefits and drawbacks that intensify concerns in domains that depend on human nuance. As algorithmic systems adopt roles once reserved for humans, understanding how people evaluate and respond to decisions made by these systems becomes increasingly crucial. […]

    Abstract The study examines performance improvements achieved through Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) use in commercial aviation, particularly aircraft like Boeing 787-9, and whether partial substitution of CFRP and aluminum components with Graphene-Reinforced Composites (GRC) may reduce structural mass without redesigning the aerodynamic profile of the wing. Therefore, this paper presents an evaluation if GRC […]

    Abstract Eutrophication is one of the most problematic processes that happen as a result of human activity. By searching and analyzing scientific literature, this paper summarizes the effect of eutrophication on marine ecosystems, with a particular focus on coastal regions. Although eutrophication has been thoroughly reviewed, the specific impacts of wastewater have not been. This […]

    Abstract In this paper, we explore minimal surfaces and graphs in differential geometry. We derive the equation for a catenoid, a rotationally symmetric solution to the first variation of area functional for equidistant bounded discs. This analysis reveals two possible configurations for the catenoid, with an inner-radius and outer-radius catenoid that arise when the distance […]

    Abstract This research investigates whether the daily price movements of a major developed-market stock index (FTSE-100 in the UK) and a major emerging-market stock index (BSE-SENSEX in India) display nonlinear and chaotic-like behaviour, as indicated by the largest Lyapunov exponent (LE). The LE quantifies the average exponential rate at which nearby trajectories in a dynamical […]
