With the rapid development of the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence technology, the smart home system has become an important part of the modern living environment. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), is a key factor of smart home user experience, the optimization of its mode and attributes is crucial to improve user satisfaction. Smart home system provides a convenient life experience, but the complex interaction mode and unclear interaction attributes may lead to user operation difficulties and affect user acceptance. Therefore, a further study of the mode and attributes of HCI is of great significance for the design of a more humanized intelligent home system. The purpose of this study is to explore the variables related to the characteristics and attributes of HCI in the existing smart homes. The key variables are extracted through an extensive literature review, collecting and organizing existing relevant studies of smart home HCI characteristics and attributes. A comprehensive framework of HCI characteristics is constructed based on the literature findings while the interactions are revealed through the constructed model towards theoretical support and practical guidance for future smart home design. The findings will help smart home developers and designers gain a deeper understanding of user needs in designing a more efficient, intuitive, and satisfactory smart home interaction system.

Perceived risk is important to identify the appropriate improvements needed for maintenance management in public schools. Addressing perceived risk in public schools highlights the importance of considering it to enhance facility performance and sustainability. School building maintenance is a global issue that needs immediate attention, as poor maintenance can compromise a school’s safetyl. This should not undermine the school’s mission of providing quality education to all occupants while ensuring productivity and comfort through effective building maintenance management. This study aims to address the gap in current maintenance management practices by investigating the role of perceived risk in enhancing maintenance management in public schools. The primary objective is to develop a conceptual model based on Perceived Risk-Based Maintenance Management (PRBMM), which prioritizes maintenance tasks according to perceived risk, thereby improving facility performance and sustainability. A systematic literature review was conducted after a comprehensive search
of research papers from 2009 to 2024 on perceived risk in risk-based maintenance management. The search included databases such as Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Elsevier, Google Scholar, and Science Direct using keywords such as (“Perceived Risk”) AND (“Maintenance Management”) and (“Risk-Based Maintenance Management”) and (“Public School”). The searcher identified 1,165 articles based on the search term of 150 articles in Scopus, 200 articles in WoS, 155 articles in Elsevier, 230 articles in Google Scholar, 430 articles in Science Direct, and 1,155 were excluded. This research highlights the necessity of investigating the relationships between perceived risk and Risk-Based Maintenance Management (PRBMM), focusing on responses to PRBMM approaches. As a result, a conceptual
model centred on PRBMM is proposed.

It is becoming increasingly common to apply adaptive reuse to preserve and make use of older structures. Multiple stakeholder scenarios are frequently involved in adaptive re-use; consequently, coordination or administrative concerns may limit the design of adaptable facilities for the purpose of preserving cultural heritage and maximising operational efficiency. This research explores the applicability and benefits of an FM-led adaptive reuse technique to overcome the coordination challenge, a concept not previously explored in the existing literature. Methods of observation and literature review are utilised in this paper. Using field observations, publicly available policies, and project data, this study was able to discover the attitudes and requirements of stakeholders about facilities management (FM) in adaptive reuse projects, including heritage buildings. The paper elaborates on the way FM coordinates adaptive reuse for the benefit of stakeholders and society. Adaptation of heritage buildings, user experience, and community effects are all factors that FM accounts for. The facilitation of innovative facility design, effective decision-making, and public engagement are all made possible by it. Urban regeneration demonstrates the heritage advantage of FM. The research has not addressed the significance of FMled business strategy for adaptive reuse in heritage buildings, nor has it discussed the benefits those strategies offer. Not only does it develop a heritage conservation management evaluation methodology, but it also reveals the strategic functions that FM plays.

Published: February 2025

O objetivo deste trabalho consiste em estudar os fenômenos fonológicos do português do período arcaico, investigando especificamente as consoantes nasais duplas presentes em 250 cantares medievais galego-portugueses. O nosso propósito é o de verificar se, naquela época da história, a consoante nasal dupla, representada na grafia como  ou , do ponto de vista fonológico, poderia ser interpretada como sendo geminada no ambiente intervocálico. A análise da amostragem foi empreendida a partir dos modelos fonológicos não-lineares. O método usado se fundamenta na observação da possibilidade de variação na escrita das consoantes nasais e na análise do comportamento fonológico de nn/nh dentro da sílaba e da palavra. Os casos coletados mostraram que, entre vogais, a nasal duplicada do PA é um elemento que vale por dois, podendo ser interpretada como sendo geminada, no nível fonológico. Não foram encontradas ocorrências de ditongo antes de nn/nh e de palavra proparoxítona com nasal duplicada no contexto de ataque da última sílaba, fatos que contribuem para a validação da nossa interpretação.

Published: February 2025

Mullet fish (Mugil cephalus), glassfish (Ambassis nalua), and mudskipper (Periophthalmus sp.) dominate the mangrove ecosystem waters of Banda Aceh City, Indonesia. These fish are potentially contaminated with microplastics from domestic and industrial waste. This study aimed to analyze microplastic contamination in the digestive tracts and flesh of fish from the mangrove area of Banda Aceh City, Indonesia. Sampling was conducted at 3 stations: Alue Naga in Syiah Kuala District, Pande in Kuta Raja District, and Blang in Meuraxa District, from December 2023 to February 2024. A total of 478 mullets, 462 glassfish, and 435 mudskippers were sampled. Based on fish species and sampling location, glassfish and the Alue Naga station exhibited the highest abundance of microplastics, with values of 1.55 particles/fish and 1.77 particles/fish, respectively. Black was the most dominant color of microplastics found in all fish samples, with the predominant size groups being <20 μm and 21–40 μm. Film was the predominant shape of microplastics in all fish species. FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of nylon and polypropylene microplastic polymers in the fish flesh. Mullet fish, glassfish, and mudskippers from the mangrove forest waters of Banda Aceh City, Indonesia, have been contaminated by microplastics.

Designing Routes in Terminal Maneuvering Area Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing
Authors: Zhou Jun , Wang Xujie , Hu Xiaobing
Published: February 2025

To ensure the safe and efficient operation of flights in terminal maneuvering areas, airports establish standard arrival and departure procedures. However, designing these procedures is typically time-consuming and challenging for quantitative path length optimization. This paper presents an efficient optimization method for designing multiple arrival and departure procedures, taking into account the configuration of the airport and the nearby environment. The objective is to minimize the total length of routes while satisfying related operational constraints, such as obstacle avoidance and route separation. Each route is modeled in three dimensions, consisting of a horizontal polygonal line and a vertical cone. Considering the actual procedures’ merging or diverging configuration characteristics, multiple arrival or departure routes are then modeled as a tree-like topology structure. A hybrid algorithm, integrating simulated annealing and an improved [Formula: see text] algorithm, is developed for automated problem-solving. Simulation results, based on tests at Sweden’s Arlanda Airport, exhibit advantages over existing related research in terms of both total route length and computing time. Tests at Shanghai Pudong Airport show an 8% reduction in total path length compared to actual procedures, demonstrating the proposed method’s effectiveness and potential contributions to energy savings and emissions reduction.
Analytical Treatise on Endo-Atmospheric Fuel-Optimal Rocket Landings
Authors: Sagliano Marco , Lu Ping , Seelbinder David , Theil Stephan
Published: February 2025

While there is a strong current interest in and an increasing body of the latest numerical work on fuel-optimal powered descent inside an atmosphere, little recent analytical understanding of the problem has been reported. This paper analyzes the endo-atmospheric fuel-optimal rocket landing problem in three-dimensional motion. The necessary conditions for the problem that account for both propulsive and aerodynamic forces are derived. They include the full set of costate equations and the optimality conditions of the body attitude in terms of the angle of attack and sideslip angle. In contrast to a long-standing assumption of coordinated flight in the literature, it is shown that in general coordinated flight is not optimal if sideslip modulation is allowed. Special cases, such as small-angle and in-plane motion, are analyzed and harmonized with the previous results that are well known in the literature. The analytical conditions derived in this paper can also serve as independent verification for numerical solutions obtained by direct methods in optimal control or can be exploited for trajectory-design purposes.

Published: February 2025

Tumour-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by increased production of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23). A 45-year-old man presented to us with progressive weakness over 2 years along with recurrent fractures with minimal trauma. His FGF-23 was found to be above the normal range and DOTATATE positron emission tomography (PET) scan showed a well-defined enhancing soft tissue density involving the left posterior ethmoid with extension to the spheno-ethmoidal recess and sphenoid sinus ostium. He underwent endoscopic sinus surgery and excision of the tumour. Histopathological examination showed features of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour–mixed connective tissue type. Postoperatively the serum phosphorus level increased from day 1 and reached the normal value of 2.5 mg/dl on day 3. He was discharged and continued on oral calcium and vitamin D3. Gradually his myalgia improved and he started walking independently over the next 1 month. The mean delay from symptom onset to treatment in our patient was 2 years and 5 months. Timely diagnosis and meticulous follow-up are necessary for the management of patients with this rare disorder.

Published: February 2025

Glaucoma remains a leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, necessitating effective management strategies to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) and mitigate associated complications. This study investigates the efficacy and potential complications of Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) implantation, with a particular focus on two critical postoperative challenges: corneal endothelial damage and hypotony. The research assesses both immediate and long-term outcomes of AGV surgeries, specifically examining the effects of tube placement on corneal health and the success of different surgical modifications designed to manage hypotony and loss of endothelial cells. The use of ophthalmic viscosurgical devices (OVDs) is evaluated for their role in managing postoperative hypotony by stabilizing the anterior chamber and maintaining appropriate IOP levels. Additionally, the paper discusses new, less invasive suture-assisted tube revision techniques that address the prevalent issue of tube-endothelial contact, which frequently leads to corneal endothelial decompensation. The adoption of these methods marks a significant advancement in glaucoma surgical practices, particularly beneficial for patients with systemic conditions or inflamed glaucoma, where more complex surgeries pose greater risks. The manuscript delves into various AGV placement strategies, emphasizing the benefits of ciliary sulcus placement over anterior chamber placement to reduce corneal complications. Overall, the findings underscore the necessity for meticulous surgical planning and proactive management to effectively mitigate severe complications associated with AGV implantation.

The increased interest in health capital as part of human capital, along with the transformation of the healthcare sector, requires clarification of the key concepts in this area with regard to the contemporary methodology of economic theory. The researchobjective is to identify and systematize the theoretical approaches that are currently used in economic theory to describe the market of medical services. The research methods utilized in the study include the analysis of relevant domestic and foreign scientific publications, analysis of the Russian legislative framework, synthesis, as well as analytical and graphical modeling. Results. In modern economic research, the healthcare sector is a provider of a complex good aimed at maintaining and improving the health of the population. Health itself is perceived as a capital good, and, in contrast to investments in education, which serve to increase income due to an increase in knowledge and skills, investments in health capital help to avoid income losses by reducing the duration of periods of disability and decreased productivity caused by health problems of individuals themselves or their close relatives. The main component of the complex good produced by the healthcare sector and considered by health care economics is a medical service (or medical care as a set of services). This service may have the following characteristics: uncertainty of demand, information asymmetry, duality of the role of the service provider, lack of a price mechanism as a regulator of demand, local monopoly of producers, limited access to the market for new producers, limited interest in maximizing profits, the presence of externalities. The degree of manifestation of these characteristics is heterogeneous within the totality of medical goods. Conclusion. The variety of medical services requires a differentiated approach to modeling the economic processes associated with them. At the same time, the classification of a certain service into one category or another depends both on the characteristics of the service itself and the characteristics of the institutional environment in which its production and consumption occurs.
Effect of Glass Powder on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC)
Authors: Ardiansyah Ardiansyah , Sutandar Erwin , Supriyadi Asep
Published: February 2025

Glass waste is often dumped directly into the ground or rivers in large quantities, causing environmental pollution. To overcome this problem, glass waste can be processed into powder as a mixture in concrete. This research partially uses glass powder to replace silica fume in reactive powder concrete. This research uses experimental methods to test concrete's physical and mechanical properties. The research process includes making test specimens, analyzing materials, curing, testing slump, compressive strength, split tensile strength, and elasticity modulus. The results showed that the slump values ranged from 50-75 mm, with an average volume weight of 1.990,073 kg/m³ - 2.149,228 kg/m³. The average compressive strength values were in the range of 56,277 MPa – 56,341 MPa, the average split tensile strength between 8,182 MPa - 9,384 MPa, and the average elasticity modulus between 30.543,305 MPa – 32.568,181 MPa. This research found that glass powder can partially replace silica fume, with an optimum content of 12,5%. At this level, the average compressive strength of RPC concrete at 28 days reached 66,341 MPa. Therefore, using glass powder in RPC concrete mixes can improve the quality of the concrete and become a more environmentally friendly construction solution.
Access to enantioenriched atropisomers through biocatalytic deracemization
Authors: Roos Casey , Schulert S. Luke , Zetzsche Lara , McMinn Spencer , Cheong Angela , Shim Eunjae , Kwan Eugene , Narayan Alison
Published: February 2025

The ability to synthesize enantiopure materials is vital for pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries due to the inherently chiral nature of biological systems and the fact that two enantiomers can have drastically different biochemical properties within organisms and ecosystems. In particular, enantioselective preparation of atropisomers is of great interest due to their privileged status as chiral ligands and pharmacophores. Although chromatographic- or crystallization-based methods are commonly used to separate atropisomers, we urgently need more efficient and economical approaches to access enantioenriched atropisomers. The use of stereoconvergent methods to access molecules with point chirality is well established, but we have not yet tapped the potential of stereoconvergent catalytic methods to arrive at enantioenriched atropisomers. We recently discovered deracemization activity in a wild-type P450 enzyme and explored its ability to deliver a stereoconvergent route toward enantioenriched atropisomers. Using a curated set of P450 variants, we found that a wide variety of symmetric and non-symmetrically substituted 2,2ʹ-binaphthol (BINOL) building blocks can be deracemized to high enantiomeric purity. Further, we demonstrated that this deracemization activity is mechanistically distinct from activity of previously reported P450 enzymes, which operate through enantioselective bond formation to afford enantioenriched atropisomers, whereas, the deracemization process reported here is proposed to proceed through bond rotation. As engineered variants have complementary selectivity profiles and substrate scope, this biocatalytic platform should be readily tunable for any desired substitution pattern. We anticipate that these results will inspire new stereoconvergent approaches to synthesizing configurationally stable atropisomers.
Single molecule peptide synthesis without any side-chain protection using a nanopore and a sub-nanometer positioning system
Authors: Sampath G
Published: February 2025

Peptide synthesis without side-chain protection is proposed at the single molecule level. A peptide is synthesized C-to-N or N-to-C as an extension to a homopeptide header with one end bound to a fixed surface and the other free and enclosed by a nanopore. The surface is mounted on a platform that can be moved with 0.1-0.15 nm precision; the pore acts like a ribosome tunnel to protect amino acid (AA) side-chains from unwanted couplings and also prevents aggregation and cyclization. Synthesis occurs in cycles with the following steps: a coupling agent attaches an end-protected AA to the terminal residue of the growing header at the end of the pore; completion of coupling is detected optically; coupling agent, protector, and excess AAs are washed out; the platform is retracted by 3.5 Å; the newly added AA is deprotected and the protector washed out. On completion of synthesis the platform is moved toward the pore by the added peptide’s length, the peptide is separated from the header. A combination of electrical potential and hydraulic pressure keeps the peptide fully stretched at all times. The nanopore plays a secondary role, no measurements are made on it. Parallel synthesis can be done with an array of headers and an array of nanopores, capacities of up to a femtomole may be possible. In principle there is no limit to the length of the peptide that can be synthesized. With no side-chain protection, minimal reagent amounts, reduced washing, and almost no post-synthesis cleanup, the method has a potentially high level of greenness.

Solubility and processability play critical roles in the practical application of conjugated polymers, in addition to their optoelectronic properties. Enhancing these features is normally accomplished by attaching aliphatic side chains to the polymer backbone, which, however, can come at the expense of other desirable properties, such as charge carrier mobility and crystallinity. Here, we present a promising alternative approach: incorporating conjugated macrocycles into the conjugated polymer backbone. To demonstrate this approach, we synthesized two novel macrocycle-containing polymers, poly(PCT-T) and poly(PCT-2T), which we found to be soluble in chloroform despite not featuring any aliphatic side chains. The polymers displayed minimal structural defects as well as high conformational flexibility and a tendency towards linearity, as confirmed by electrospray deposition scanning tunneling microscopy, and promising photophysical and electrochemical properties, with computational modeling confirming retained macrocycle functionality. The presented approach unlocks a new avenue for the design of solution-processable conjugated polymers with enhanced performance in organic battery electrodes and (opto)electronic devices.

Atomic oxygen (AO) is a major cause for the deterioration of spacecraft materials, such as polymers, composites and optical coatings, in low Earth orbit (LEO). AO exposure can degrade thermal, mechanical, or optical system performance, potentially leading to premature mission failure. Future missions, especially for remote sensing, are designed for very low Earth orbit (VLEO) where thermospheric density and AO flux variations are more significant than in higher orbits. Therefore, accurate real-time assessment of the AO fluence impinging upon spacecraft surfaces becomes a crucial issue for mission success, as well as for improving current thermospheric density models. We present a compact, solid-state sensor with high sensitivity and fast response to AO. The sensor is based on two semiconductor components that exhibit unique electrical properties when assembled together: hydrogenated diamond substrate and transition-metal oxide (TMO) coating. The Diamond:H-Transitional Metal Oxide AO sensor (DiMO) was characterized using RF plasma-based and laser detonation AO facilities. Tungsten oxide, WO3, with thickness ranging from 6 nm to 30 nm was used as the TMO coating of choice. The results showed a linear increase in electrical resistance as a function of AO fluence of up to 2×1020 O-atoms∙cm-2, as tested in a laser detonation AO beam facility. The sensitivity of the sensor was found to be tunable, ranging from 10-14 to 10-15 Ω∙O-atoms-1∙cm2, and inversely dependent on the coating thickness. This work demonstrates the potential usage of diamond-based devices for VLEO real-time AO flux monitoring. Furthermore, the compact dimensions and minimal power consumption of the DiMO sensor make it an ideal low-cost solution for the emerging "new-space" era, including nanosatellite applications.

Language documentation plays a critical role in preserving linguistic diversity and cultural heritage. However, balancing the academic goals of linguists with the practical needs and interests of indigenous communities remains a challenge. This study reports on the first phase of documenting the relatively isolated indigenous language of Baduy Dalam in Banten, Indonesia. Using a linguist-centered approach, the fieldwork involved eliciting language data and recording daily narratives, culminating in the creation of a small Baduy dictionary. While the project succeeded in capturing targeted word forms and sentence structures, local informants expressed concerns about its relevance to their community. These findings highlight the limitations of linguist-driven documentation efforts, suggesting the need for approaches that prioritize community engagement and shared ownership of language preservation initiatives. A shift towards community-based and multidisciplinary methodologies may foster greater participation, ensuring that language documentation aligns with both academic and local community objectives.

Authors:   Irkutsk State University, Karnyshev A.D.
Published: February 2025

For the first time in Russian science and practice the monograph examines issues related to the mental and psychological health of the Siberian family, taking into account interdisciplinary aspects.

The book has 3 main features: a) addressing the totality of genetic, climatic, landscape and cultural criteria for identifying different variants of the Siberian family; b) addressing primarily the environmental, economic and confessional (shamanism, Orthodoxy, Buddhism) determinants of the psychological health of the family; c) taking into account the experience gained over 50 years of joint work the life of a particular family, and the presence of expert opinions on the problem from family members who have been differing in their mental and psychological health for many years. All these three aspects are described on the basis of four groups of Siberian families (aboriginal, old-timers of the Russian type, Old Believers, polyethnic (mixed)). Each of these families has notable ethnoregional specifics, which are revealed in the book.

The book is intended for students and undergraduates studying family issues; it can be used by researchers and practitioners whose functions include working with young families. Some of its sections and recommendations will be useful to read in specific families.
Outdoor gym equipment in parks in Aotearoa New Zealand: preliminary surveys of availability and usage
Authors: Wilson Nick , Thomson George
Published: February 2025

aim: There is growing international evidence that outdoor gym equipment in parks can provide health and fitness benefits to the population. As little is known concerning the availability and usage of such equipment in the Aotearoa New Zealand setting, we aimed to study this topic further.
methods: An internet survey identified outdoor gym equipment in parks in the 10 most populated territorial authorities (TAs). A field survey of 22 selected parks examined the actual equipment. Observational data were obtained on equipment usage in one large urban park over 3 summer months.
results: The internet survey identified 122 parks with outdoor gym equipment in the 10 TAs. The prevalence ranged from zero (in three TAs) up to 5.6 parks per 100,000 population in Christchurch City (i.e., one such park per 18,000 people). The field survey of 22 parks indicated that all the equipment worked as intended and none was vandalised. Observations from one large urban park indicated that the eight pieces of equipment averaged 16 uses per hour overall. This was extrapolated to estimate around 18,000 episodes of use over the 3 summer months for this park. Usage of the different items of gym equipment varied sixfold (p<0.0001).
conclusions: There is a need for further research on the relationship between outdoor gym equipment provision and population health and fitness in the New Zealand context. Nevertheless, this study provides preliminary data that such equipment can be extensively used by the public in some settings.

Təqdim olunan tədqiqatın əsas məqsədi idman fiziki fəaliyyətinin idmançıların və qeyri-idmançıların ürək-damar sisteminin tənzimləmə keyfiyyətinə və adaptiv imkanlarına təsirini öyrənməkdir.
Alınan nəticələr göstərdi ki, istirahət dövründə ürək vurğularının sayının azalması müşahidə olunur. Fiziki yük yerinə yetirən zaman ürək vurğularının sayının dəyişilməsi idmançıların yaş normalarına uyğundur. Bundan əlavə, ürək vurğularının sayında və sistolik qan təzyiqində əhəmiyyətli dəyişikliklər aşkar edilməmişdir, lakin diastolik qan təzyiqi əhəmiyyətli dərəcədə azalmışdır, nəbz təzyiqi isə artmışdır.

Published: February 2025

Oxumaq həzz və mərifət bəxş edir. Bilinməyənləri açır. Bu, bilik cəmiyyəti növü üçün zəruri olan mürəkkəb idrak fəaliyyətidir. Beləliklə, müasir dünyanın tələbələri oxumaqdan necə öyrənməli və indiki savadlı cəmiyyətə daxil olmağı bilməlidirlər. Oxuyan başqalarını nura apara bilər. Müəllimlər oxumağın bütün növlərini, xüsusən də tənqidi oxumağı vurğulamalıdırlar ki, bu, təkcə sətirlərdə oxumaqla deyil, həm də sətirlər arasında və ondan kənarda oxumaqla məşğul olur. Tənqidi oxucu müəllifin fərziyyələrinə, qənaətlərinə və nəticələrinə etiraz edir və oxuduqlarının düzgünlüyünü, etibarlılığını, keyfiyyətini və dəyərini əvvəlki təcrübələr əsasında hazırlanmış sağlam meyarlar və ya standartlar əsasında mühakimə edir. Oxuma bacarığına yiyələnməyin yolları və vasitələri olsa da, ona ciddi təsir edən bir neçə amil var. Müəllimlər bu maneələrin qarşısını almaqda diqqətli olmalı və öz himayədarlarının oxumasını asan, təsirli və uğurlu etməlidir. Müəllimlər şagirdlərin oxu vərdişlərini inkişaf etdirmələrində əsas mənbədir. Onların məsləhətləri və həvəsləndirilməsi tələbələrin oxumağa münasibətini inkişaf etdirməkdə bir addım irəliləməyə kömək edəcək. Müəllimlər ilkin mərhələdə oxuculara fonetikanı öyrədə, hərf və sözlərin səslərini düzgün tələffüz etməyə kömək edə bilərlər. Onlar həmçinin ibtidai sinifdə yazı tapşırığını vurğulamalıdırlar, çünki bu, oxu proqramı ilə birbaşa bağlıdır. Onlara yeni sözləri tanımaq üçün heca yazmağı öyrədə bilərlər. Onlar başa düşməlidirlər ki, onlar tələbələri aciz oxucu olmağa həvəsləndirmək və cəlb etməkdə böyük rol oynamalıdırlar.

THE ANALYSIS OF THE CURRENT STATE OF NEFTCHI FOOTBALL CLUB AND WAYS TO IMPROVE CLUB MANAGEMENT
Authors: U.Z. Malikzade
Published: February 2025

This paper presents an analysis of current problems which one of the historically most important football teams in Azerbaijan, Neftchi Football Club, is experiencing, and consequently, searches for ways to solve them in its management and performance. Despite its bright history and established reputation, Neftchi has been struggling in the last years, achieving only incomplete success on both domestic and international scenes. Mismanagement, poor decision-making, breakdowns in communication, and misguided transfer of players and coaches have been identified as some of the important problems. This study also looks into sponsorship and financial mismanagement as a factor for poor performance. By identifying best practices that have been observed in the management of football clubs elsewhere, and by drawing lessons from both the successes of the past and the current challenges, this study comes up with actionable recommendations on how such a club could be managed to restore its competitive level and return to its previous status among leading names in Azerbaijani football.
