Multiply Hölder functions
Authors: Rosas Rudy
Published: February 2025

In this article we show several properties about multiply Hölder functions. We study the Hölder class of a composition of multiply Hölder functions and prove that a map and its inverse belong — under certain hypotheses — to the same Hölder class. We also prove some extension properties of multiply Hölder functions; for example, we show that a multiply Hölder functions always extends, in the same Hölder class, to “exceptional” sets that are codimension one manifolds.

Published: February 2025

Tulungagung and Trenggalek are two regencies located south of Java Island with quite complex geological conditions because they are located in the Southern Mountains area. This study aims to identify the presence of faults based on the magnetic anomaly value of the Tulungagung sheet. The presence of faults at the research site were determined based on three lines on the regional magnetic anomaly using First Horizontal Derivative (FHD) and Second Vertical Derivative (SVD) derivative analyses. The results show that the regional magnetic anomaly is -210.7 nT to 113.2 nT. Line A-A' identified two fault locations at a distance of 15 km and 27 km from the line's starting point. Line B-B' identified three fault locations at a distance of 4 km, 27 km, and 45 km from the line's starting point. Line C-C' identified three fault locations at 10 km, 22 km, and 42 km from the line's starting point. The interpretation results also obtained subsurface lithology in the Alluvium Formation, Arjosari-Mandalika Formation, Wungkal Limestone Formation, and Malihan Rock Formation.
STOCK MARKET INDICATORS AND NIGERIAN ECONOMY

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThis study examines the impact of stock market indicators on economic growth in Nigeria. The research used an expo-facto design and purposive sampling, employing ARDL to analyze the effects of stock market indicators on Nigeria's economic growth. Data was sourced from Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin. The overall findings revealed correlation value of 0.628 which indicate a moderate positive correlation between the predictors Equity (LEQ), Corporate Bond (LCB), All-Share Index (LALS), and Inflation (INFLA) and GDP. The study also revealed F statistic of 4.237 with a significance level of 0.009 which confirms that the model is statistically significant, meaning that there is significant relationship between the dependent and independent variables. The study recommendations that the policymaker should not only rely on the value of bond as the driver on economic growth in Nigeria. The investors can be encouraged to diversify their investment across different asset classes which serve as long-term investment strategy rather than focusing on the stock market equities. This is because the economic cycle and market trend can change over time and this will mitigate risk that is associated with volatile equity market and take into account broader economic trend and potential growth over time. The Nigeria stock market regulators should always review rules and regulations guiding the activities of buying and selling on the market in order to promote efficiency in price movement of stock market.Keywords: All Share Indexes; Gross Domestic Product; Stock Market Corporate Bonds; Stock Market Equities.
Policy on the application of conditional early release in Poland for the years 2014–2023
Authors: Mrozek Kamila
Published: February 2025

Conditional early release from the remainder of a prison sentence is a key institution in the regulation of the penitentiary population. The subject of this study is an analysis of the policy on the use of conditional early release from the remainder of the prison sentence between 2014 and 2023. The title institution has been assessed from the perspective of the number of convicts serving custodial sentences, the initiative of the bodies entitled to submit applications on this subject, and changes in the number of successful and unsuccessful applications. The analysis confirmed a clear decrease not only in the number of successful applications, but also in the interest of convicts in the title institution itself. It can be assumed that this is due to the nature of the penal and penitentiary policies implemented in recent years, i.e., the actual tightening of the repressive and isolation functions of imprisonment. This observation is confirmed by the numerous amendments to the penal codification tightening, inter alia, the grounds for applying for conditional early release from the remainder of the prison sentence.

Published: February 2025

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a serious threat to global health, with rising incidence and mortality rates. Therapeutic options for advanced HCC are quite limited, and the overall prognosis remains poor. Recent advancements in immunotherapy, particularly immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) targeting anti-PD1/PD-L1 and anti-CTLA4, have facilitated a paradigm shift in cancer treatment, demonstrating substantial survival benefits across various cancer types, including HCC. However, only a subset of HCC patients exhibit a favorable response to ICB therapy, and its efficacy is often hindered by the development of resistance. There are many studies to explore the underlying mechanisms of ICB response. In this review, we compiled the latest progression in immunotherapies for HCC and systematically summarized the sophisticated mechanisms by which components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) regulate resistance to ICB therapy. Additionally, we also outlined some scientific rationale strategies to boost antitumor immunity and enhance the efficacy of ICB in HCC. These insights may serve as a roadmap for future research and help improve outcomes for HCC patients.

Iontronic power sources have attracted widespread attention in the field of energy harvesting and storage. However, conventional devices only generate an output voltage of ~1.0 V. Herein, we have developed units with an ultra-high voltage of ~2.0 V per unit based on osmotic effects and fine-tuning interfacial redox reactions. These systems are designed to harness the efficient ion dynamics of K+ within graphene oxide nanofluidic channels and tailor Faradaic processes at the interfaces. Printable, scalable, and optimized through fractal design, these miniaturized units are capable of directly powering commercial electronics, presenting a transformative paradigm for salinity gradient-based power generation. This approach offers a safe, ultra-thin, and portable solution for next-generation energy systems.

Published: February 2025

Aims: This study used induced pluripotent stem cell-derived podocytes from a Fabry disease (FD) patient carrying the p.Met284Thr pathogenic variant as an in vitro model to investigate lysosomal abnormalities driving cell pathology. Proteomic analysis was used to assess changes in lysosomal protein abundance in FD podocytes compared to controls. Additionally, temporal changes in lysosome number in FD podocytes were analyzed using automated live-cell imaging.

Methods: Label-free mass spectrometry proteomics was performed on FD podocytes at day 10 of differentiation compared to controls. For live-cell imaging, cultured podocytes were transfected with CellLight Lysosomes-GFP and Plasma Membrane-CFP, and then visualized and quantified on days 10 and 20 post-differentiation using a Perkin Elmer Phenix High Content Screening Microscope.

Results: Proteomic analysis showed dysregulation of glycosphingolipid metabolism proteins, including decreased galactosidase alpha (GLA; P < 0.01) and increased galactosylceramidase and glucosylceramidase (P < 0.01) in FD podocytes. Lysosomal proteins were enriched, with a significant increase in cathepsin B (P < 0.001) and a decrease in lipase A (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the dysregulation of proteins involved in cell cycle regulation and growth signaling pathways, such as polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1; P < 0.0001) and proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src (SRC; P < 0.01), suggested broader impacts on cellular processes. Temporal live-cell imaging revealed a significant increase in lysosome number in day 20 FD podocytes compared to day 10 FD podocytes and controls (P < 0.01).

Conclusions: These findings collectively suggest that FD podocytes undergo progressive lysosomal impairment, which may contribute to cellular dysfunction and disease progression. These proof-of-concept findings lay a foundation for future research on targeted FD therapies using high-throughput screening and advanced analytical techniques.

Published: February 2025

Pharmaceuticals in water bodies are a significant threat to aquatic life and human health, often persisting due to incomplete degradation in conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a promising method for efficiently treating wastewater (WW). TiO2 P-25, a well-known photocatalyst, has been widely used to remove persistent organic pollutants (POPs) from aquatic media, primarily on a laboratory scale. In this study, the photocatalytic removal of Paroxetine (PXT), an antidepressant drug, is investigated at the lab scale and pilot scale using a compound parabolic collector (CPC) reactor (85 L) working in batch recirculating mode and secondary treated hospital wastewater (HWW) as the substrate using different catalyst concentrations (200, 300, and 500 mg/L). The lab experiments achieved the fastest PXT degradation with 500 mg/L, while the pilot tests found 200 mg/L to be optimal. Thirteen transformation products (TPs) were identified using liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HR-MS-Orbitrap), and their ecotoxicity was assessed with ECOSAR software, indicating they were less toxic than PXT. The T.E.S.T. software showed most TPs were not mutagenic but displayed developmental toxicity. Toxicity assessments from the pilot scale using the Microtox bioassay demonstrated that toxicity was eliminated by the end of the photocatalytic treatment. In conclusion, the study provides an integrative approach to photocatalytic degradation of PXT, integrating lab-scale and pilot-scale experiments, pure water and real WW matrices, environmentally relevant concentrations, TPs’ identification along with toxicity assessment of both in-silico and in-vitro , which is not followed in most previous studies dealing with the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants.
Hyperelastic behavior of cable gland silicon shroud: finite element analysis
Authors: Bhoye Ganesh , Jain Ishant
Published: February 2025

This study characterizes the hyperelastic behavior of a silicon shroud and evaluates its suitability for cable gland applications. Experimental uniaxial and biaxial stress–strain data were analyzed, and multiple hyperelastic material models were fitted to the data using a least-squares algorithm. Among the models evaluated, the Mooney–Rivlin 9-parameter (MR 9P) model best captured the material’s mechanical response under diverse loading conditions. Finite element analysis simulations were conducted to assess the shroud’s performance during radial expansion, exploring both direct and sliding expansion scenarios. The results demonstrated the silicon shroud’s excellent radial expansion capacity, achieving a maximum observed displacement of 7.5 mm while maintaining induced stresses within acceptable limits. These findings highlight the silicon shroud as a superior alternative to conventional polyvinyl chloride shrouds, offering enhanced flexibility, reduced weight, and improved environmental resistance. The hyperelastic material model developed in this study provides a robust tool for predicting the shroud’s behavior under varied loading conditions, enabling optimized designs and ensuring long-term performance.
INTELLIGENT TECHNOLOGY FOR SEMANTIC COMPLETENESS ASSESSMENT OF BUSINESS PROCESS MODELS
Authors: Rudskyi Oleksandr , Kopp Andrii , Goncharenko Tetiana , Gamayun Igor
Published: February 2025

In this paper, we present a method for comparing business process models with their textual descriptions, using a semantic-based approach based on the SBERT (Sentence-Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) model. Business process models, especially those created with the BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) standard, are crucial for optimizing organizational activities. Ensuring the alignment between these models and their textual descriptions is essential for improving business process accuracy and clarity. Traditional set similarity methods, which rely on tokenization and basic word matching, fail to capture deeper semantic relationships, leading to lower accuracy in comparison. Our approach addresses this issue by leveraging the SBERT model to evaluate the semantic similarity between the text description and the BPMN business process model. The experimental results demonstrate that the SBERT-based method outperforms traditional methods, based on similarity measures, by an average of 31%, offering more reliable and contextually relevant comparisons. The ability of SBERT to capture semantic similarity, including identifying synonyms and contextually relevant terms, provides a significant advantage over simple token-based approaches, which often overlook nuanced language variations. The experimental results demonstrate that the SBERT-based approach, proposed in this study, improves the alignment between textual descriptions and corresponding business process models. This advancement is allowing to improve the overall quality and accuracy of business process documentation, leading to fewer errors, introducing better clarity in business process descriptions, and better communication between all the stakeholders. The overall results obtained in this study contribute to enhancing the quality and consistency of BPMN business process models and related documentation.

Published: February 2025

The article presents a modified deployment algorithm for software systems using multithreading in AWS CodeBuild, aimed at optimizing build time and reducing computational resource costs in cloud environments. The key stages of the build process, including parallel test execution, task allocation analysis, and resource management, were modeled using finite automata, timed automata, and Petri nets. Particular attention was given to identifying and addressing the limitations of AWS CodeBuild's standard parallelization mechanisms, which can lead to inefficient resource utilization and extended build durations. The study revealed that AWS CodeBuild's default mechanisms are not always capable of optimally leveraging system resources, especially when handling large software projects with numerous dependencies. To overcome these limitations, the use of Python's multithreading capabilities was proposed as a convenient tool for extending the platform's base functionality. The proposed approach enabled flexible thread management and task distribution at the user scenario level, significantly reducing overall build time. Experimental results demonstrated substantial reductions in build execution time compared to the default AWS CodeBuild settings, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in enhancing performance and ensuring high scalability for build processes in cloud environments. The developed algorithm is particularly relevant for large software projects requiring frequent iterative builds and testing. The findings can be utilized to improve automated deployment processes and computational resource management in cloud ecosystems.
Otentisitas dan Keterbatasan Sumber Tafsīr bi al-Maʾṯūr dalam Menangani Tantangan Pemikiran Kontemporer

Published: February 2025

This study examines the authenticity and limitations sources of Tafsīr bi al-Maʾṯūr in addressing contemporary intellectual challenges. While often regarded as authoritative for relying on the Qur'an, Hadith, and the sayings of the Sahabah and Tābi'īn, Tafsīr bi al-Maʾṯūr faces challenges such as the inclusion of Isrāiliyāt, omitted Sanad (chains of transmission), as fabricated reports. This study explores traditional scholars' approaches to these issues using qualitative and descriptive methods based on library research. It evaluates the contribution ofTafsīr bi al-Maʾṯūr to modern Islamic thought. The conclusion indicates that not all Tafsīr bi al-Maʾṯūr maintain high authenticity despite its general perception as being based on reliable sources. Some interpretations rely on narratives that lack a direct connection to the Qur'anic text, including Isrāiliyāt and fabricated hadiths, or omit Sanad, raising doubts about their credibility. Therefore, looking at previous studies which say that Tafsīr bi al-Maʾṯūr is sufficient as the primary reference in understanding the text of the Qur'an, this is fatal because a more dynamic and contextual interpretation approach is still needed to ensure that the interpretation of the Qur'an remains relevant in the modern era.

Role of Fragility of the Glass Formers in the Yielding Transition under Oscillatory Shear
Authors: Karmakar Smarajit , Chatterjee Roni , Adhikari Monoj
Published: February 2025

Metallic glasses are widely used amorphous materials known for their exceptional mechanical properties, such as high yield strength and large yield strain. Understanding the microscopic mechanisms behind their failure, particularly the yielding transition, remains an active
area of research. Previous studies have shown that yielding behavior depends on the initial age of the sample. Through extensive computer simulations, we demonstrate that this age dependence varies across different materials and is influenced by the specific characteristics of the initial glass former, particularly its fragility. Both strong and fragile glass formers exhibit similar behavior in poorly annealed conditions, but the yield point increases significantly with annealing for fragile glasses while remaining relatively constant for strong glasses. We rationalize these findings by introducing a new elastoplastic model, which qualitatively reproduces the simulation results and offers valuable insights into the physics of the yielding transition under oscillatory shear deformation.
Both small heat shock protein and J-Domain protein direct defense against Areca palm velarivirus 1 (APV1) by degrading coat protein via autophagy pathway

Published: February 2025

Both autophagy and heat shock proteins (HSPs) play dual roles in promoting or inhibiting viral infections. However, the coordination between autophagy and HSPs in the defense against viral infections remains underexplored, and the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. This study first revealed an interaction between a cytosolic small heat shock protein (AcsHSP) and a type II J-domain protein (AcDNAJB13) of areca palm with the coat protein (CP) of Areca Palm Velarivirus 1 (APV1) and the interaction is independent of the HSP70 chaperones. The closest homologs in Nicotiana benthamiana (NbsHSP and NbDNAJB13) also interacted with CP. Both AcsHSP and AcDNAJB13 were localized in the cytoplasm and nucleus, and co-expression with CP altered AcsHSP intracellular localization. APV1 infection or transient CP expression induced the expression of AcsHSP and AcDNAJB13, which, in turn, inhibited CP accumulation. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) of NbsHSP and NbDNAJB13 significantly increased the accumulation of transiently expressed CP-GFP. CP degradation occurred via an autophagic pathway. Both AcsHSP and AcDNAJB13 interacting with AcATG8f1, and these interactions were required for CP degradation. Furthermore, silencing endogenous NbsHSP and NbDNAJB13 enhanced APV1 replication, while overexpression of AcsHSP reduced APV1 accumulation. Our findings demonstrate that AcsHSP and AcDNAJB13 function as selective cargo receptors for CP degradation via autophagy pathway, thereby limiting APV1 infection and offering new insights into the roles of heat shock protein families.

Published: February 2025

Polymer electrolyte fuel cells hold great potential for powering heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) run by clean hydrogen, but a major challenge lies in the ionomer poisoning of scarce platinum (Pt) catalysts, which hinders the Pt utilization and cell efficiency. Here, we report a simple yet effective approach to mitigate polymeric densification at the Pt/ionomer interface, via enlarging tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) spacing between neighboring side chains. Ionomers with weaker confinement to Pt, arising from strengthened hydrophobic interactions, suppress the specific adsorption and lead to less-densified ionomer morphology. Despite having a lower ion-exchange capacity, they exhibited high accessibilities (over 80%) and a significant reduction of 22–8% in sulfonate coverage, hence resulting in two-fold improvements in activity and local transport towards the oxygen reduction reaction. This strategy offers a key solution to unlock the full potential of Pt, offering seamless integration into current manufacturing processes, thus accelerating the sustainability and scalability of fuel cell technology.
Pathways to global hydrogen production within planetary boundaries
Authors: Hauschild Michael , Lejeune Michaël , Kara Sami , Shahrabifarahani Sareh , Daiyan Rahman
Published: February 2025

Hydrogen is regarded as a key lever for decarbonising hard-to-electrify sectors and industries. Future projections suggest that a significant increase in global hydrogen production is required to limit global warming to 1.5°C. However, the planetary footprint of global hydrogen production is not well understood, particularly when considering potential interactions between Earth's biophysical systems. This study quantifies planetary footprint using a bottom-up hydrogen production system considering potential planetary boundary interactions. Here, we show that from 2025 to 2050, even under the most sustainable scenarios, global hydrogen production is unsustainable with multiple boundary transgressions. As opposed to current trends, we find that biomass-based production has the potential to amplify boundary transgression levels. We also find that an increased electrolytic hydrogen production capacity with concurrent carbon removal will be required to alleviate the planetary footprint of global hydrogen production. Our general analysis confirms the need to re-evaluate the “green hydrogen” concept, which, besides the sole focus on climate change, largely overlooks critical interactions between Earth's biophysical systems. Therefore, achieving absolute sustainability for global hydrogen production will require reconsidering environmentally viable production pathways.

Published: February 2025

The coherent control of phonon polaritons (PhPs) in holds transformative potential for nonlinear photonics. We demonstrate terahertz-driven excitation of low-frequency PhPs in zinc oxide (ZnO) crystals, with their nonlinear dynamics resolved via time-resolved second harmonic generation (SHG) spectroscopy. By achieving phase matching via nine sequential reflections within a millimeter-scale crystal, we observe sustained SHG oscillations with 3–4 THz modulation frequencies, achieving optimal extinction ratios of ~18 dB that persist for 90 picoseconds—a temporal span directly governed by polariton propagation dynamics. This work establishes a dual-functionality platform enabling spectral-temporal resolved mapping of quasiparticle interaction dynamics while simultaneously advancing polariton-engineered nonlinear optical modulators through symmetry-broken frequency conversion architectures.

Deconvolution algorithm enables estimation of cell type abundances from tissue-level data, providing a crucial way for exploring plentiful cohort data at the cellular level. However, most deconvolution algorithms are specifically designed for single-omics data, thereby limiting their generalizability and scalability for multiomics data from different cohorts. A deconvolution algorithm applicable to various omics data can use cell abundance as a bridge to improve the comparability of different cohorts. Here, we developed DECODE, a universal deconvolution framework of both cell type and cell state designed for transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics data, which seamlessly integrates diverse multiomics tissue datasets in cellular level. DECODE fills the gap in metabolomics deconvolution and significantly outperformed state-of-the-art methods on different omics data across donors, disease conditions, healthy states, and measurement platforms. In addition, DECODE exhibits high robustness in scenarios that are closer to real applications, that it can accurately deconvolve known cell types even when the reference single-cell data incomplete all cell types of target tissue. DECODE will serve as a powerful tool for the fully extending multiomics cohort data into cellular level.

The Tethyan orogenic belt underwent prolonged tectonic evolution and hosts numerous world-class porphyry copper deposits. Notably, most porphyry deposits are associated with Cenozoic continental collision, while fewer are formed during Mesozoic subduction. Here we integrate detrital zircon oxybarometry with geochemical data, stratigraphy, sea-level and temperature fluctuations, and major geological events. Our results reveal a stark redox transition–from anoxic during Mesozoic subduction to oxidized during Cenozoic collision. We propose that subduction of organic-rich, reduced sediments in the Mesozoic suppressed the oxidation state of arc magmas, locking chalcophile elements in the lower crust and inhibiting the formation of subduction-related porphyry Cu deposits. In contrast, the subduction of more oxidized sediments during the Cenozoic elevated oxygen fugacity, releasing stored metals and promoting extensive formation of porphyry Cu deposits during continental collision. These findings underscore the critical role of sediment redox state and subduction history in governing porphyry mineralization along the Tethyan belt.

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5 viruses have recently been documented in mammals including humans, posing a major threat to global public health. To prevent a potential H5 pandemic, it is critical to elucidate the antigenic evolutionary pattern and identify key drivers underlying its evolution. In this study, we constructed a comprehensive antigenic map of H5 influenza viruses spanning their evolutionary history for the first time, revealing three distinct antigenic clusters (AC1, AC2, and AC3) with no cross-neutralization. In contrast to its sequential genetic evolution, AC3 lies between AC1 and AC2 in antigenic space. This divergence stems from two distinct mutation patterns at six key amino acid positions: (1) persistent mutations at positions 88 (N > R > S), 199 (D > N > S), and 205 (K > N > D), and (2) reversible mutations at positions 131 (Q > L > Q), 139 (S > P > S), and 289 (N > H > N). Moreover, single mutations at positions 205 and 289 can lead to significant immune escape. The risk clade of current interest, 2.3.4.4b belongs to AC2 and remains sensitive to current AC2-targeted vaccine strains. Additionally, clades 2.3.2.1c of AC1 and 2.3.4.4h of AC3 are also prevalent and capable of human infection, necessitating continuous surveillance of their epidemiological dynamics. These findings not only reveal the antigenic evolution mechanism of H5 influenza unseen in other influenza viruses, but also provide important guidance for vaccine strain selection and broad-spectrum vaccine development.
Empowering EAP teachers of Chinese: a narrative inquiry into professional development for Chinese students’ listening instruction in Melbourne
Authors: Zhou Dan
Published: February 2025

As the programme of English for academic purposes (EAP) has gained popularity in recent decades, teachers’ professional development (PD) in this field has drawn increasing scholarly attention. The reason behind it is that PD significantly contributes to teachers’ teaching quality, facilitating effective classroom practices. However, given the complexity of students’ needs, concerns have emerged about whether current PD adequately supports teachers’ growth. This study investigates the current landscape of PD for EAP teachers of Chinese, specifically focusing on listening teaching for newly arrived Chinese tertiary students in Melbourne. Through narrative inquiry with semi-structured interviews, this research gathers personal accounts from three teachers. Grounded in sociocultural theory, thematic analysis is employed to synthesise the research data. The findings reveal that teachers strive to employ adaptive teaching strategies to address learners’ needs and proactively engage in PD. Also, their experiences suggest a need for frequent and systematic professional support to alleviate the challenges associated with listening teaching. This research not only provides EAP programme leaders with valuable insights for creating a supportive PD environment for listening teaching through systematisation, but also offers a sociocultural theoretical foundation for researchers to explore EAP teachers’ PD in listening teaching.

This study demonstrates the use of oxygen vacancy-induced planar defects to significantly enhance electrical polarization through a local flexoelectric effect. By introducing an appropriate level of aliovalent dopants, numerous local planar defects are induced in (Bi0.5, Na0.5)TiO3-based thin films. These defects, identified as oxygen-deficient structures through direct visualization of oxygen atoms and oxygen vacancies using integrated differential phase-contrast (iDPC) microscopy, result in the formation of head-to-head (H-H) domain structures. Geometric phase analysis (GPA) confirms that these structures exhibit a substantial local strain gradient of up to 109 m− 1, contributing significantly to the flexoelectric polarization. Consequently, a giant maximum polarization (Pm) of 161 µC cm− 2 under 750 kV cm− 1 and a remanent polarization Pr=115 µC cm−2 along with a coercive field of 250 kV cm−1 are achieved, allowing these BNT-based thin films to be used in low-power electronic applications. Crucially, the Pm and Pr of the thin films can be sustained at 133 and 98 µC cm−2, respectively, at 230°C. Additionally, they exhibit exceptional high-temperature fatigue endurance, with Pm and Pr demonstrating a negligible reduction of less than 9% after 107 cycles under 750 kV cm−1 at 230°C. To the best of our knowledge, these values establish a new record for oxide perovskite thin films at elevated temperatures, demonstrating potential applications of our thin films in high-temperature environments. Our findings offer promising avenues for advancing the application fields of ferroelectric thin films.

Uncertainty of loading in distribution system, which differs over time, raises difficulty in working and control over distribution system. Also, increased continuous load and makes the distribution system work nearby load limit. The load which increases steadily will cause more power losses, least voltages regulation, uncertainness, in secured traditional feedings system. This paper contributes enhancement in profile of voltage in transmission systems, which reduces voltage fluctuation and power loss. Electrical power which transfers in the same way throughout Radial Distribution Network (RDN) in power grid stations will results lower voltage continuity, voltage fluctuations which occur significantly and also loss of power in distribution networks even with higher load and power loss issue, in spite of mounting DG in RDS in maintaining voltage profiles using grid networks. The meta-heuristic optimization algorithms also hold major place which determines optimal location of DG which achieves the goal of the research. Here, in practical networks, the single objective optimized strategies were not used to solve power systems optimization issues of several types. Therefore, multi-objective function was mentioned. The major work of the research lies in investigating along with assigning the optimal locations of connecting DG, along with the evaluation of optimal DG configuration, which minimizes power loss thereby improving voltage profiles of distribution network using Gazelle Optimization + Dwarf Mongoose Optimization (GOA + DMO) algorithms. The standardized IEEE 37-bus Radial Distribution Systems (RDS) were used as testing bus system in testing execution and efficiency of optimization techniques. Illustrating effectiveness of devised algorithms, outcomes were compared using several optimization methods.

Global climate change intensifies extreme weather-induced crop losses, necessitating drought-resilient crops. Qingke (Hordeum vulgare var. nudum), the staple barley of Tibet's climate-vulnerable plateau, offers genetic insights into stress adaptation. We established a seedling-stage drought evaluation system identifying four biomarkers: fresh weight, chlorophyll fluorescence (Fv/Fm, NPQ, RFD), photosynthetic parameters (E and gsw), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Systematic screening of the physiological traits revealed these parameters as optimal predictors of drought tolerance, enabling rapid germplasm classification. Application to three uncharacterized cultivars (ZY673, ZY1403, KL14) demonstrated weak drought resistance across all lines, with ZY1403 showing extreme sensitivity. This standardized protocol for hulless barley integrates photosynthetic efficiency and oxidative stress metrics, providing breeders with actionable thresholds for climate-resilient crop development in montane agroecosystems.
