Evaluation of ground-based methods for monitoring neotectonic processes at geodynamic sites
Authors: Lysko Bohdan , Hutsul Taras
Published: January 2025

The relevance of the article lies in the need to improve the methods of monitoring neotectonic processes and develop technological parameters to ensure more effective forecasting of geodynamic phenomena. Accurate monitoring of neotectonic processes is important for assessing changes in geological conditions and preventing potential risks affecting the environment and human life safety. The purpose of research was to evaluate the effectiveness of various ground-based methods of monitoring neotectonic processes to determine their reliability and accuracy. The authors used different methods, in particular geodetic measurements, which ensure high accuracy and reliability of the results; geophysical methods that help to detect subsurface structures and processes; and remote sensing of the Earth, which provides large-scale monitoring and analysis of the dynamics of neotectonic phenomena. Having analysed the existing methods of determining the changes in the shape of the equipotential surface, the advantages of using geodetic measurements to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results were identified and substantiated. The proposed methodology is based on the study of changes in the shape of the equipotential surface on geotechnological sites and takes into account the inhomogeneity of the gravity field, and if the developed technological parameters are followed, it ensures the determination of the deflection of plumb lines with an accuracy of ± 0.2". The research results showed that the combination of these methods helps to obtain a more complex picture of neotectonic processes, which, in turn, contributes to more accurate forecasting and prevention of the consequences of geodynamic phenomena. The proposed approach to monitoring neotectonic processes can be used to develop effective strategies for monitoring and managing environmental risks associated with geological hazards

Published: January 2025

Neural tube defects are developmental abnormalities that occur during embryonic neural formation, leading to a range of clinical outcomes. This study investigates the clinical characteristics and prevalence of NTDs in Eastern Libya over five years. A descriptive hospital-based retrospective study was conducted at Aljala Hospital from 2015 to 2019. Data from 214 patients, aged 2 to 120 days, were analyzed. The study assessed clinical presentations, demographic data, timing of surgery, and complications. The most common form of NTD, spina bifida cystica, was the most common type of NTD, with a higher prevalence in males than females. A lack of awareness about folic acid supplementation and limited use of advanced imaging were significant findings. Hydrocephalus was frequently associated with NTDs, and shunt placement occurred predominantly postoperatively. Complications included wound sepsis, CSF leaks, and meningitis. The study emphasizes the need for improved preventive strategies, early antenatal diagnosis, and multidisciplinary care for NTD management in Libya.
Contextualization and the Old Testament
Authors: Hwang Jerry
Published: January 2025

Christianity is often viewed in Asia as a Western imposition. Challenging this, Dr. Jerry Hwang examines the Old Testament’s cultural engagement of its ancient Near Eastern context, arguing that Scripture itself provides the ultimate model for contextualizing theology in Asia.

This is an ideal resource for scholars and practitioners interested in a biblical perspective of contextualization, especially as related to constructing theology that honors the truth of Scripture in the context of Asia.

A identificação de um bebê prematuro pode se mostrar pelo acompanhamento pré-natal durante  a gravidez pelo processo de exames de rotina ao longo desse período. É fundamental os exames  durante esse período de gestação até pela saúde da mãe, e o acompanhamento de sua gravidez,  no entanto algumas dessas gestações apresentam alguns risco e complicações, dentre elas a  prematuridade, que se torna uma das principais causas da mortalidade infantil. Identificar na  literatura as principais terapias utilizadas no tratamento de prematuros para melhorar a sua  qualidade respiratória e motora. Trata-se de um estudo de revisão de literatura de tipo integrativa  e retrospectiva dos últimos 5 anos no qual o objetivo é descrever e discutir o contexto.  Constituem basicamente de análise da literatura publicada em livros, de revistas impressas ou  eletrônicas na interpretação e análise crítica pessoal do autor. O presente estudo teve como  finalidade analisar a literatura, as evidências científicas acerca da assistência fisioterapêutica ao  prematuro com síndrome do desconforto respiratório do recém-nascido. A revisão dos estudos  recentes sobre cuidados neonatais revela avanços significativos em várias áreas. A  administração precoce de corticosteróides por via aérea, conforme evidenciado por Zhong et al.  (2019), mostrou-se eficaz na redução da displasia broncopulmonar em prematuros com  síndrome do desconforto respiratório neonatal, minimizando tanto o risco de complicações  pulmonares quanto os efeitos adversos sistêmicos. Além disso, intervenções como a  estimulação sensório-motora, discutidas por Johnston et al. (2020), demonstraram benefícios  significativos como melhora no desenvolvimento neuromotor e na interação materno-infantil,  através de práticas como o contato pele a pele e a estimulação multissensorial. Esses avanços  são fundamentais para melhorar os resultados de saúde e qualidade de vida dos recém-nascidos  prematuros.Intervenções eficazes e específicas para recém-nascidos prematuros, focadas na  assistência fisioterapêutica e no manejo respiratório, são cruciais. A administração de  corticosteróides por via aérea reduz significativamente a incidência de displasia  broncopulmonar, enquanto métodos não invasivos como CPAP e VNIPP oferecem suporte  respiratório com menor risco de lesão pulmonar. Práticas como a estimulação sensório-motora  e o método canguru demonstraram benefícios significativos no desenvolvimento neuromotor,  qualidade do sono e redução do estresse.

Authors: Deka Barnali , Rajkhowa Subhram
Published: January 2025

The 21st century has witnessed a profound transformation in the landscape of female
criminality, challenging traditional stereotypes and prompting a re-evaluation of our
understanding of this complex issue. This paper explores the evolving patterns, trends, and
factors influencing female involvement in criminal activities during this era of change. Firstly,
we delve into the changing patterns and trends of female criminality in the 21st century,
examining the types of crimes women are increasingly engaged in, from cyber crimes to violent
offenses. Through this analysis, we aim to uncover the underlying dynamics and motivations
driving these shifts. Secondly, we identify the root causes and risk factors contributing to
female criminal behaviour in contemporary society. Factors such as socio-economic
disparities, gender dynamics, cultural influences, and access to education and employment
opportunities are scrutinized to better understand the driving forces behind female criminality.
Lastly, this paper assesses the legal and social responses to female criminality, including the
evolving role of the criminal justice system and societal attitudes towards female offenders. We
also explore rehabilitation and reintegration programs tailored to the unique needs of female
offenders, emphasizing gender-sensitive approaches and equitable outcomes.
Obstacles in Recovery of Dower in Bangladesh
Authors: Mostofa Md. , Rahman Samiur , Tasnim Kazi Sonia
Published: January 2025

Dower, a crucial element of marital agreements in Bangladesh and other Muslim societies, refers to the financial or property rights a wife is entitled to from her husband. Moreover, it plays a crucial role to enhance women’s financial security and economic independence, particularly in the event of divorce, widowhood. In Islam, a balanced societal structure is promoted through a clear division of responsibilities: women traditionally manage household affairs, while men are tasked with providing for the family’s financial needs. In Bangladesh, the right to dower is safeguarded by law, recognizing it as a binding obligation on the husband. This article examines the practical challenges in recovering dower within the Bangladeshi context and recommends enhancing awareness among wife and husband regarding their respective religious, legal, and social responsibilities in fulfilling dower obligations. The author presumes that addressing the challenges in recovering dower require multilateral approaches involving collaborations between the government, judicial activism, civil societies, religious institutions and community leaders. Moreover, increasing public awareness, reforming statutory frameworks and advocating for changes in the societal attitude to deprive women from this significant right are all inevitable for mitigating the barriers towards recovery of dower rights of Bangldeshi women.
AVRUPA İNSAN HAKLARI SÖZLEŞMESİ ÇERÇEVESİNDE TERCÜMAN YARDIMINDAN YARARLANMA HAKKI
Authors: Kaynakçıoğlu Uğur
Published: January 2025

Avrupa İnsan Hakları Sözleşmesi’nin 6/3(e) maddesinde düzenlenen tercüman yardımından yararlanma hakkı, savunmanın gerçekleştirilebilmesi ve adil yargılanma hakkının sağlanabilmesi için gerekli ve zorunlu olan mutlak bir haktır. Madde metninin içeriğine göre kendisine bir suç isnat edilen ve mahkemede kullanılan dili anlamayan veya konuşamayan kişiler bedelsiz olarak tercüman yardımından yararlanacaktır. Ancak hakkın kapsamını yalnızca bu tek cümleyle ilişkilendirmemek gerekir, çünkü hakkın kapsamı Sözleşme içeriğinden daha çok Avrupa İnsan Hakları Mahkemesi kararlarıyla şekillendirilmiştir. Nitekim hakkın önemi, hakkın uygulanma kapsamı, haktan yararlanabilecek kişiler, haktan yararlanmanın karşılığı, tercüman temin etme yükümlülüğü ve tercümanın niteliği, hakkın kısıtlanması ve haktan feragat gibi pek çok mesele Mahkemenin kararlarına konu olmuştur. Bu çalışmada tüm bu meseleler incelenecek; hakkın kullanım alanı netleştirilecektir. Böylece hakkın Sözleşmeye taraf olan devletlere yüklediği kullanılan dili anlamamak veya konuşamamak konularında tespit yapma ve nitelikli tercümanı atama yükümlülüğüne ilişkin değerlendirmelerde hâkimlerin önlerine gelen her olayda kararlarını olanca dikkat ve titizlikle hassas bir dengeyle ele almaları gerekecektir.

A necessidade de criar, aumentar e modernizar os equipamentos de infraestrutura públicos levou o poder público a instituir instrumentos que possibilitam ao empreendedor privado realizar serviços públicos delegados, incluindo ou não a realização de obras para assegurar esses objetivos. As concessões e as parcerias público-privadas são utilizadas pelo setor público para prestarem serviços públicos delegados com eficiência e fomentar infraestrutura logística e social para atender às demandasda sociedade. Esta monografia aborda a necessidade de investimentos de recursos, públicos e privados, em projetos de infraestrutura, levanta o arcabouço legal sobre concessões e parcerias público-privadas e suas características; e demonstra os principais desafios dos Tribunais de Contas brasileiros para a fiscalização de concessões e parcerias público-privadas. Realizou-se pesquisa exploratória na forma de estudo de caso, em que foi procedida a análise documental de normas legais obtidas nos portais institucionais e a revisão bibliográfica dentro de uma abordagem qualitativa. Verificou-se que a participação de investimento privado na criação, manutenção e modernização de equipamentos de infraestrutura vem crescendo a partir da década de 1990, que o arcabouço legislativo federal para fundamentar sua contratação está constituído pelas Leis 8.985/1995, 11.079/2004, 9.094/1995, 13.529/2017 e Decreto 8.428/2015, sem prejuízo de os entes subnacionais legislarem de forma suplementar; e que existe uma série de desafios na fiscalização feita pelo controle externo em razão das especificidades dos institutos de concessões e parcerias público-privadas, a exemplo de capacitação dos servidores dos Tribunais de Contas que atuam em processos e fiscalização, avaliação da consistência da justificativa para sua autorização, fiscalização de remuneração variável, quando couber, funcionamento da Sociedade de Propósito Específico, existência de matriz de risco adequada, assunção do controle ou da administração temporária da Sociedade de Propósito Específico, utilização de garantias públicas e privadas e análise do processo licitatório, do contrato e de sua execução. Assim, a fiscalização exercida pelos Tribunais de Contas brasileiros assume papel fundamental para verificar a correta aplicação dos recursos públicos nestes institutos e avaliar o resultado alcançado em termos das melhorias dos serviços públicos concedidos.

Authors: Ayaz Maryam , Urooj Rida , Tajmeena  , Iftikhar Sumayya , Rehman Zia Ur , Ghani Sania
Published: January 2025

Background: Nomophobia, or the fear of being without a mobile phone, has emerged as a growing concern in modern society, particularly among young adults. Loneliness, characterized by perceived social isolation, has also become prevalent among university students, exacerbated by digital overreliance. Despite the increasing use of smartphones, limited research has explored the link between nomophobia and loneliness, especially in the sociocultural context of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. This study aimed to investigate this relationship among university students.
Objective: To explore the correlation between nomophobia and loneliness among university students in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, and examine potential gender differences in loneliness.
Methods: A cross-sectional quantitative design was employed. Data were collected from 377 university students aged 18–25 years using purposive sampling. An adapted questionnaire, including the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q) and the UCLA Loneliness Scale, was utilized. Internal consistency was confirmed with Cronbach's alpha values of 0.93 for NMP-Q and 0.85 for UCLA Loneliness Scale. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and t-tests were conducted to analyze the data.
Results: The mean score for nomophobia was 85.45 (SD = 21.27), and for loneliness, it was 53.29 (SD = 9.59). A significant positive correlation (r = 0.408, p < 0.01) was observed between nomophobia and loneliness. Gender analysis revealed no significant difference in loneliness between male and female participants (p > 0.05). Most participants reported distress when unable to access mobile phones or maintain social connections, indicating a behavioral and emotional dependence on smartphones.
Conclusion: The study established a positive relationship between nomophobia and loneliness, emphasizing the psychological and social implications of excessive smartphone reliance. These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to mitigate the effects of nomophobia and loneliness among students, promoting healthier digital habits and mental well-being.

Eccentric Enactments: Naturkraft as Non-Formal Sustainability Education in the Anthropocene
Authors:   , Kardyb Daniel Feldballe Støjberg
Published: January 2025

This dissertation presents an exploration of the Danish non-formal sustainability education project Naturkraft. The Naturkraft project develops and – since 2020 – operates a nature science centre by the name Naturkraft in the Ringkøbing-Skjern Municipality on the Danish west coast. This dissertation is based on an ethnographic field study conducted in and around the Naturkraft project between February 2020 and September 2021. The focus of the exploration is to understand the Naturkraft project as a way of 'enacting' non-formal sustainability education in the Anthropocene. Accordingly, the dissertation seeks to open new perspectives on sustainability educational thought, research, and practice in relation to Anthropocene challenges.

The dissertation situates itself within the research field of environmental and sustainability education (ESE), with a particular focus on non-formal education forms and the thematization of Anthropocene issues in pedagogy and education. This implies, on the one hand, a broad understanding of 'education' that extends beyond formal education institutions and rationales. On the other hand, it implies understanding sustainability perspectives in Naturkraft from a socioecological perspective, with theoretical attention to material, embodied, and imaginary aspects of the educational situations the project frames. Drawing on thinkers such as Deleuze & Guattari, Anna Tsing and colleagues, Timothy Morton, Elizabeth Ellsworth and George Marcus, the dissertation proposes the concept of eccentric education as a way to consider and discuss the mode of sustainability education in Naturkraft.
Le Lieu de l’archive (IMEC) : (ré)écrire l’archive entre cimaises et vitrines
Authors: Van Vyve Camille
Published: January 2025

Dès l’ouverture de son nouvel espace d’exposition en 2016, l’Institut Mémoires de l’édition contemporaine (IMEC, France) a inauguré une série d’expositions intitulée Le Lieu de l’archive, dans lesquelles la notion de l’archive se métamorphose en un espace vivant de création. Depuis lors, cette approche novatrice a permis à chacun des neuf écrivains et écrivaines, artistes et philosophes d’assumer le rôle de commissaire dans le cadre d’une carte blanche, avec comme fil directeur « d’apporter une nouvelle lecture, un nouveau regard » sur les archives conservées à l’abbaye d’Ardenne. L’objectif de cette étude est de présenter cette série et d’explorer la mise en exposition personnelle de l’espace de l’archive à travers des procédés de narrativisation, qui permettent un déploiement de la fabrique de l’oeuvre, du geste créateur littéraire sur les cimaises et sous vitrine. En plus de ces réflexions sur l’espace muséal en tant qu’environnement narratif singulier, le présent article vise à examiner le rôle de l’écrivaine-commissaire et écrivain-comissaire, ainsi que la série éditoriale qui accompagne le cycle d’expositions comme un lieu « curatorial » potentiel. Il s’agira donc d’une analyse approfondie et comparative de différents cas d’étude, incluant les réalisations de Valérie Mréjen (Soustraction, 2019), Jean-Michel Alberola (Le Fleuve, 2021) et Georges Didi-Huberman (Tables de montage, 2023), ainsi que les publications associées à ces expositions.
Le care à l’épreuve des lieux hétérotopiques et des bons sentiments dans Les Enfants du sabbat d’Anne Hébert et Soigner, aimer de Ouanessa Younsi
Authors: Oberhuber Andrea
Published: January 2025

Les Enfants du sabbat (1975) d’Anne Hébert et Soigner, aimer (2016) de Ouanessa Younsi soulèvent la question de l’effet des espaces hétérotopiques sur les êtres humains. Elles nous incitent plus précisément à nous interroger sur l’impact de certains lieux – sacrés ou profanes – sur les êtres qui s’y réfugient, y travaillent et subissent leurs règles, leurs contraintes et leurs interdits, qui y assument les tâches qui leur sont attribuées. Aussi différents en termes d’appartenance générique et de contexte de publication soient-ils, le roman d’Anne Hébert et le récit de Ouanessa Younsi retiennent notre attention afin de comprendre l’effet d’un espace hétérotopique sur le « prendre soin de l’autre » (Fabienne Brugère), sur les modalités d’un care-giving en deçà et au-delà des bons sentiments. Ainsi, je grefferai la perspective du care à la conception foucaldienne des « espaces autres » aménagés généralement dans les plages réservées aux « individus dont le comportement est déviant par rapport à la moyenne ou à la norme exigée » (Michel Foucault), ce qui nous permettra d’interroger la triade « souci d’autrui, personnage féminin et lieu de soin ». Nous montrerons que le care n’est pas réductible à la seule bienveillance, injonction essentialisante adressée traditionnellement aux femmes dans les sociétés occidentales ; que la sollicitude (care affectif) et le soin (care matériel ou care de service lié généralement aux tâches matérielles) ne sont pas leur apanage ; qu’outre leurs effets bénéfiques, les pratiques du care-giving viennent tantôt avec leur lot d’ambivalences, tantôt avec des impasses ou des pièges.
De l’hétérolinguisme dans le roman amazighe (berbère)
Authors: Moumouch Larbi
Published: January 2025

Notre article aborde l’hétérolinguisme littéraire dans le roman amazighe (berbère, Maroc). Réputée pour son oralité, la littérature amazighe s’impose aujourd’hui en tant que littérature écrite, en croissance éditoriale, qui affermit ses genres et diversifie ses thématiques et son esthétique. En se constituant dans un système littéraire pluriel, elle fait l’écho de la diversité sociolinguistique qui caractérise la société et le marché linguistique marocains. Mais, l’hétérolinguisme romanesque prend davantage une dimension esthétique. S’appuyant sur un corpus de trois romans en amazighe, notre analyse se propose d’interroger la présence glossonymique des langues autres et les formes et fonctions qu’assurent les segments et îlots hétérolingues convoqués dans ces romans.

Authors: Barsczewski Joshua , Jimenez Florianne
Published: January 2025

In this article, a postcolonial theorist and a queer studies scholar reconsider the role of student resistance in Writing Studies’ social justice turn, arguing for a way of reading student texts that accounts for why students might choose to take up social justice or not in their own writing. Through examples from their ongoing research projects, the writers discuss how students’ resistance surfaced not as visible and explicit signs of a changed epistemological framework or political perspective, but as a series of normative rhetorical choices that made space for more transgressive or subversive possibilities.

Mapping James Moffett: Formative Assessment and Common Core Standards for the Contemporary Language Arts Classroom
Authors: Marine Jonathan , Nathan Ruth
Published: January 2025

In this article, we argue for an expanded conception of language assess-ment based on the principles of James Moffett and centered on outfitting teachers with useful information with which to guide their practice and optimize student learning. Importantly, we begin the article by demonstrating that Moffett’s interest in assessing language growth occurs much earlier than previously thought. Then, we sketch a composite view of Moffett’s evolving views on assessment as drawn from works across the span of his career while also investigating the many thinkers who influenced his ideas in order to situate them in the historical and educational con-text from which they emerged. Next, we present a selection of his growth sequences in order to take up both the principles which undergird them and their potential value for pedagogical practice while also mapping them to Common Core Readi-ness Anchor Standards (CCRAS). Finally, we discuss the implications of Moffett’s work for writing assessment, educational policy, and national assessment standards.
Julio Cortázar según Peri Rossi: del tránsito experiencial al ficcional
Authors: Vásquez Rodríguez Gilberto Daniel
Published: January 2025

Los relatos biográficos y autobiográfi cos parecen constituirse con una vocación documental a partir de unas experiencias, recuerdos, vestigios, huellas o registros que buscan su sostén en el llamado principio de sinceridad. Pero, más allá de esa aspiración de la Filosofía cognitiva, el relato de la experiencia biográfica y autobiográfica –atravesada por los dones de la subjetividad, de la interpretación del recuerdo– encuentran en la imantación de la imaginación o del deseo, un salto o giro hacia lo fi ccional. Así, el dato objetivable o documentado o la sensación afectiva del recuerdo como materias del “hecho experiencial” pueden cobrar otras resonancias y resurgimientos en la fi cción; que exhiben travesías y destinos de la representación biográfi ca. De allí que el interés fundamental de este artículo resida en analizar, según los complejos linderos de esta problemática, la construcción del relato biográfico que sobre Julio Cortázar realiza su amiga, la escritora Cristina Peri Rossi. Por esto, las crónicas de sus vivencias, los poemas y cartas dedicadas al escritor, algunos segmentos de su correspondencia o el testimonio del encuentro fascinado de ambos escritores, recogidos tanto en Julio Cortázar (2001) como en una edición posterior y ampliada en Julio Cortázar y Cris (2022), conforman el corpus comparado de este abordaje.
Alberto da Veiga Guignard: modernidade e tradição
Authors: Palhares Taisa
Published: January 2025

Alberto da Veiga Guignard (1896-1962) é reconhecido como um dos mais importantes artistas modernos em atuação no Brasil na primeira metade do século XX. Sua produção se destaca principalmente pelas paisagens montanhosas de tom lírico que aludem às festas juninas e que, no geral, foram interpretadas pela crítica de arte como índice de uma visão pura e ingênua sobre o país. Este estudo pretende investigar as origens da produção artística de Guignard, desde sua formação europeia até o diálogo que estabelece com o meio artístico brasileiro a partir do final dos anos 1920, a fim de ampliar a compreensão do sentido moderno de sua obra.
Late killing of Plasmodium berghei sporozoites in the liver by an anti-circumsporozoite protein antibody

Plasmodium
sporozoites are inoculated into the skin during the bite of an infected mosquito. This motile stage invades cutaneous blood vessels to reach the liver and infect hepatocytes. The circumsporozoite protein (CSP) on the sporozoite surface is an important antigen targeted by protective antibodies in immunoprophylaxis or elicited by vaccination. Antibody-mediated protection mainly unfolds during parasite skin migration, but rare and potent protective antibodies additionally neutralize sporozoite in the liver. Here, using a rodent malaria model, microscopy and bioluminescence imaging, we show a late neutralizing effect of 3D11 anti-CSP monoclonal antibody (mAb) in the liver. The need for several hours to eliminate parasites in the liver was associated with an accumulation of 3D11 effects, starting with the inhibition of sporozoite motility, sinusoidal extravasation, cell invasion, and terminating with the parasite killing inside the invaded cell. This late neutralizing activity could be helpful to identify more potent therapeutic mAbs with stronger activity in the liver.

Recent studies showed an unexpected complexity of extracellular vesicle (EV) biogenesis pathways. We previously found evidence that human colorectal cancer cells
in vivo
release large multivesicular body-like structures
en bloc
. Here, we tested whether this large extracellular vesicle type is unique to colorectal cancer cells. We found that all cell types we studied (including different cell lines and cells in their original tissue environment) released multivesicular large EVs (MV-lEVs). We also demonstrated that upon spontaneous rupture of the limiting membrane of the MV-lEVs, their intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) escaped to the extracellular environment by a ”torn bag mechanism”. We proved that the MV-lEVs were released by ectocytosis of amphisomes (hence, we termed them amphiectosomes). Both ILVs of amphiectosomes and small EVs separated from conditioned media were either exclusively CD63 or LC3B positive. According to our model, upon fusion of multivesicular bodies with autophagosomes, fragments of the autophagosomal inner membrane curl up to form LC3B positive ILVs of amphisomes, while CD63 positive small EVs are of multivesicular body origin. Our data suggest a novel common release mechanism for small EVs, distinct from the exocytosis of multivesicular bodies or amphisomes, as well as the small ectosome release pathway.
Robust capabilities design and optimization for a modular block-based organization
Authors:   , San Martín Riveros Luis Alberto
Published: January 2025

Capability-based planning is a methodological framework born in the early 2000s after the end of the Cold War as an answer to NATO’s lack of a tangible threat. The critical element that governs this process is capability, defined as the ability to accomplish a task, which is embedded within entities as building blocks for their aggregation. The main subject of this research is a military organization that must exhibit capa bilities assembled by combining different types of minor functional and indivisible units called battalions to respond to an adversary’s capability demand. To solve this problem, we propose a mixed integer linear optimization model to assign battalions within brigades as a mechanism to allocate capabilities and a heuristic method to approximate the results in a shorter resolution time, an activity called force design. A robust reformulation is proposed to deal with uncertainty because of its tractability and the difficulty of obtaining reliable probability distributions.The main formulation is also complemented with an optimization model that maximizes the designed capability level across the military force life cycle in the force training and sustainment. Lastly, the capability allocation model is applied to a context other than defense to build capabilities for wildfire-fighting brigades. Results showed that the proposed robust capability allocation framework is effective for dealing with force design, training, and sustainment activities for the military and other industries, even under uncertainty. Finally, the heuristic method is helpful for reliably approximating the capability allocation process.
