Will “Seeking Pleasure” Definitely “Sap One’s Spirit?”: Impacts of Mobile Phone Addiction on Research Self-Efficacy
Authors: Li Peng , Chen Jiangyuan , Duan Zhitong , Xu Wei , Feng Yangcun
Published: September 2024

With Generation Z youths growing up with the Internet, the problem of mobile phone addiction is becoming increasingly worse. This paper administered questionnaires based on measures such as the Mobile Phone Addiction Index Scale, Research Self-Efficacy Scale, The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale, and Stress Mindset Measure. The survey targeted 2,278 graduate students and explored the mechanism of mobile phone addiction on their research self-efficacy (RSE). The results revealed that such addiction has significant negative effects on self-efficacy, with mental stress playing a mediating role in this process. That is, mobile phone addiction lowers RSE by increasing mental stress. Meanwhile, the aforementioned negative impacts caused by addiction can be moderated through stress mindsets: the “stress-is-enhancing” mindset reduces the negative effects of addiction on scientific RSE, whereas the “stress-is-debilitating” mindset amplifies these negative effects by enhancing the mediating effect of mental stress.
A Unified Force Theory Based on Quantum Aether Dynamics: Predictions and Experimental Support
Authors: Thomson David , Bourassa James
Published: September 2024

This paper presents the Aether Physics Model (APM), a novel theoretical framework that offers a unified description of the fundamental forces and weak interaction. The APM proposes a quantum Aether composed of discrete units, recognizes two distinct charge manifestations, and treats all charges as distributed. Using dimensional analysis and simple equations, the APM derives force equations that unify gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong forces and the weak interaction. The model makes specific predictions about force strengths, maximum mass density, and fine structure constants for protons and neutrons. These predictions align with existing observations and offer new avenues for experimental testing. The APM addresses the limitations of the Standard Model while providing a more intuitive explanation for phenomena like the quantum Hall effect and Casimir effect. If validated, the APM could revolutionize our understanding of space, matter, and fundamental forces.
The Drastic Turn in Neurology: From Classical Disciplines to Neurogenetics
Authors: Montgomery Richard Murdoch
Published: September 2024

The field of neurology has undergone a profound transformation over the past two decades, shifting from traditional clinical and pathological approaches to a more genetically informed perspective. This essay explores the drastic turn in neurology from classical disciplines to neurogenetics, examining the factors that have contributed to this shift and the implications for clinical practice and research. The traditional approach to neurology, grounded in clinical examination, neuroanatomy, and neuropathology, has been effective in diagnosing and treating many conditions but has had limitations in understanding the etiology of complex and rare neurological disorders. The emergence of neurogenetics has been driven by advancements in genetic technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) and genome-wide association studies (GWAS), as well as the recognition of the genetic basis of many neurological disorders. This shift has led to more accurate diagnoses, targeted treatments, and a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying neurological disorders. However, challenges remain, including the complexity of genetic architecture and the ethical implications of genetic testing. The future of neurogenetics holds great promise for improving the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of neurological conditions, with new technologies and interdisciplinary approaches poised to further advance the field.

3D Light-Direction Sensor Based on Segmented Concentric Nanorings Combined with Deep Learning
Authors: Huang Pengcheng , Wu Peijin , Guo Ziyuan , Ye Zhicheng
Published: September 2024

High-precision, ultra-thin angular detectable imaging upon a single pixel holds significant promise for light field detection and reconstruction, thereby catalyzing advancements in machine vision and interaction technology. Traditional light-direction angle sensors relying on optical components like gratings and lenses face inherent constraints from diffraction limits in achieving device miniaturization. Recently, angle sensors via coupled double nanowires have demonstrated prowess in attaining high-precision angle perception of incident light at sub-wavelength device scales, which may herald a novel design paradigm for ultra-compact angle sensors. However, the current approach to measure the three-dimensional (3D) incident light direction is unstable. In this paper, we propose a flexible segmented concentric nanorings structure capable of discerning the 3D light-direction based on its sensitivity character to both elevation (θ) and azimuth (ϕ) angles at a micrometer device scale. Through deep learning (DL) analysis and prediction, our simulations reveal that for angle scanning with a step size of 1o, the device can still achieve a detection range of 0∼360o for azimuth and 45o∼90o for elevation, with an average accuracy of 0.19o, and DL can further solve some data aliasing problems to expand the sensing range. Our design broadens the angle sensing dimension based on mutual resonance coupling among nanorings segments, and through waveguide implementation or sensor array arrangements, the detection range can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate diverse application scenarios.

Published: September 2024

Flood protection infrastructures are crucial for enhancing the resilience of societies exposed to natural hazards. Newly designed infrastructures are evaluated for sustainability using a coherent and internationally recognized method defined by the International Hydropower Association (IHA). However, older structures require a different assessment approach. Popescu et al. (2024) proposed a modified IHA protocol, mHSAP, which identifies opportunities for improvement and develops a sustainability evaluation framework for existing infrastructures. This paper applies the modified protocol to evaluate the sustainability of two types of flood protection structures: a unique canal system for flood-drought protection of an urban area and a flood protection dyke. The time of operation of over 250 years, and respectively over 50 years. The application of the modified framework demonstrates its advantages in identifying areas for improvement in operating the flood protection structure, such that it is maintained sustainable. It also illustrates how Romanian water boards can use such tools to facilitate collaboration between structure owners and stakeholders, allowing them to assess the risks and effects of flooding on society. Potentially water boards, could use the results of the method to account for the effects of climate change and addressing the issue in a coordinated and efficient manner. Through these two examples from Romania, we also show that the mHSAP framework has the potential to actively support the fulfillment of the United Nations Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
