Published: July 2022

The present study proposes a decision-making model based on different models of driver behavior, aiming to ensure integration between road safety and crash reduction based on an examination of speed limitations under weather conditions. The present study investigated differences in road safety attitude, driver behavior, and weather conditions I-69 in Flint, Genesee County, Michigan, using the fuzzy logic approach. A questionnaire-based survey was conducted among a sample of Singaporean (n = 100) professional drivers. Safety level was assessed in relation to speed limits to determine whether the proposed speed limit contributed to a risky or safe situation. The experimental results show that the speed limits investigated on different roads/in different weather were based on the participants’ responses. The participants could increase or keep their current speed limit or reduce their speed limit a little or significantly. The study results were used to determine the speed limits needed on different roads/in different weather to reduce the number of crashes and to implement safe driving conditions based on the weather. Changing the speed limit from 80 mph to 70 mph reduced the number of crashes occurring under wet road conditions. According to the results of the fuzzy logic study algorithm, a driver’s emotions can predict outputs. For this study, the fuzzy logic algorithm evaluated drivers’ emotions according to the relation between the weather/road condition and the speed limit. The fuzzy logic would contribute to assessing a powerful feature of human control. The fuzzy logic algorithm can explain smooth relationships between the input and output. The input–output relationship estimated by fuzzy logic was used to understand differences in drivers’ feelings in varying road/weather conditions at different speed limits.

Published: July 2022

A greenhouse experiment with soil cores and wastewater application was carried out to investigate the effects of biochar and zeolite on the mobility of nitrogen and coliform bacteria during the leaching of columns repacked by a silty loam soil. Triticum aestivum plants were grown in cores with and without biochar and zeolite irrigated with municipal wastewater for 4 months in the greenhouse. Cores were then flushed with 800 mLof distillate water and, finally, the leachate was collected. Application of biochar or zeolite significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced nitrate and ammonium loss in soil after leaching process, compared to their non-treated counterparts. In addition, interactions of biochar and zeolite significantly decreased nitrate and ammonium content in leachate. Biochar had higher removal effects of coliform bacteria in leachate than zeolite. Lower nitrate and ammonium content in leachate was related to the increased retention of soil amendments. Application of 5% w/w of biochar also reduced the volume of leachate by 11% compare to control, but using 5% w/w and 10% w/w of zeolite increased the volume of leachate compared with non-treated columns by 21% and 48%, respectively. Taken together, these data highlight the need to consider the potential benefits of biochar and zeolite as soil amendment to reduce nitrogen mobility and remove coliform bacteria in the leaching process of municipal wastewater in agricultural systems.

Authors: Yan Zhengxiao , Zhou Wei , Wang Yuyi , Chen Xi
Published: July 2022

Food security is always a pressing agenda worldwide. The grain production in many areas has decreased due to the reduction in agricultural research funding and infrastructure investment. In this paper, we employed the Extreme-Tree algorithm to determine the main effectors in grain production in Hexi Corridor, Gansu, China, during 2002–2018. First, we applied the three-stage super-SBM DEA to precisely assess agricultural production. Then, we used the Extremely randomized trees algorithm to quantify the importance of each factor. Our results show that the variant of average efficiency score at the first stage was minimal. After removing the influence of environmental factors on production efficiency, the more accurate efficiency score was decreasing from 2002 to 2018. The R2 value of the Extra-Tree model was 0.989 in the grain production analysis. Our research shows that grain production in the Hexi Corridor was controlled by human-driven but not nature-driven during our research period. Based on the importance attribution analysis of each model, it showed that the importance of human-driven investment occupied 93.7% of grain production. The importance of nature-driving was about 6.3%. Accordingly, we proposed corresponding opinions and suggestions to government and growers.

This work aims to perform a holistic review regarding renewable energy mix, power production approaches, demand scenarios, power policies, and investments with respect to clean energy production in the southern states of India. Further, a thermoelectric-generator model is proposed to meet rural demands using a proposed solar dish collector technology. The proposed model is based on the idea of employing a parabolic concentrator and a thermoelectric (TE) module to generate electricity directly from the sun’s energy. A parabolic dish collector with an aperture of 1.11 m is used to collect sunlight and concentrate it onto a receiver plate with an area of 1.56 m in the proposed TE solar concentrator. The concentrated solar thermal energy is converted directly into electrical energy by using a bismuth telluride (BiTe)-based TE module mounted on the receiver plate. A rectangular fin heatsink, coupled with a fan, is employed to remove heat from the TE module’s cool side, and a tracking device is used to track the sun continuously. The experimental results show considerable agreement with the mathematical model as well as its potential applications. Solar thermal power generation plays a crucial part in bridging the demand–supply gap for electricity, and it can be achieved through rural electrification using the proposed solar dish collector technology, which typically has a 10 to 25 kW capacity per dish and uses a Stirling engine to generate power. Here the experimentation work generates a voltage of 11.6 V, a current of 0.7 A, and a power of 10.5 W that can be used for rural electrification, especially for domestic loads.

Authors: Zhao Yilin , He Feng , Feng Ying
Published: July 2022

The economic development of various regions is influenced by high-quality population mobility. The research object of this article is the employment mobility data of “Double First-Class” university graduates from 2014 to 2019; the subsequent analysis is based on these data. First, this paper summarizes the current state of university graduates’ employment mobility. Second, this paper employs the fixed-effect model and PCA method to conclude that economic factors are the primary factors influencing university graduates’ employment mobility. Finally, based on the nonlinear, small sample, and high-dimensional characteristics of university graduates’ employment mobility data, this paper employs the random forest and BP neural network methods to build a prediction model for university graduates’ employment retention rate. The results show that the BP neural network model outperforms the random forest model in terms of prediction accuracy. The BP neural network model can accurately predict the employment retention rate of “Double First-Class” university graduates, which can guide the reasonable mobility of university graduates and provide a reference for government universities and individuals to make decisions.
Selection Strategy and Coordination of Green Product R&D in Sustainable Competitive Supply Chain
Authors: Feng Qinghua , Liu Tong
Published: July 2022

Green product R&D is a necessary measure for enterprises to achieve sustainable development. This paper studies the optimal selection strategy of green product R&D and the impact of price competition and green R&D cost on prices, green levels, and enterprise profits in the sustainable competitive supply chain. We establish manufacturer-led game models and compare the equilibrium results of green R&D strategies. The study found that three types of green product R&D strategies exist in competitive supply chains: neither conduct green product R&D (NN), only one supply chain conducts green product R&D (YN), and both conduct green product R&D (YY). Price competition intensity and green R&D cost have a negative impact on prices, green levels, and enterprise profits. Wholesale prices, retail prices, green levels, and enterprise profits are highest in YY strategy, but they are lowest in NN strategy. When one supply chain does not conduct green product R&D, the other supply chain will choose green product R&D only if the green R&D cost meets certain condition. When one supply chain conducts green product R&D, the optimal choice for the other supply chain is always to conduct green product R&D. For the optimal selection strategies, applying two-part pricing contracts achieve supply chain coordination. Our research results provide a reference for the strategic choice of green product R&D in competitive supply chains.

Authors: Niu Shandong , Lyu Xiao , Gu Guozheng
Published: July 2022

Cultivated land protection policies (CLPP) are essential for maintaining social stability, guaranteeing food security, and ensuring sustainable development. However, a mismatch exists between policy performance and the objectives that influence the implementation of CLPP, and the system mechanisms of CLPP must be revealed and explored. Based on the literature review, this paper summarizes the current dilemmas of China’s cultivated land protection at the theoretical level, and preliminarily depicts the external foundation of CLPP in view of China’s topography and spatial distribution of cultivated land. This paper uses CLPP texts as research samples based on grounded theory to construct an analytical framework. The results show that the operation logic of the CLPP is founded on situation–structure–motivation–action–space–outcome. Accordingly, systematic analysis and in-depth understanding of the operation logic of CLPP will help to re-examine the profound relationship between policy text and implementation effect from such perspectives as transnational, trans-regional, and multi-scale. It also helps to reveal the hidden scientific value of spatiotemporal pattern for cultivated land protection, and serve the formulation and implementation of relevant policies in the future. Under the background of the new era of ecological civilization, it is urgent to enhance the operational effectiveness of the CLPP, identifying the focus of policy implementation, and scientifically formulating the CLPP is of great significance to its success.

One of the conifers that survived after the last glaciation is the Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco. Due to the gradual increase in temperature, this species was forced to move from the south to the north and to higher elevation, causing a fragmented and intermittent distribution in Mexico. The main objective of this study was to model and identify suitable areas for the future conservation of the P. menziesii in Mexico. The specific objectives of this research were: (i) to model the habitat suitability of P. menziesii in Mexico, (ii) to identify the most relevant environmental variables based on its current and future habitat suitability (2030, 2050, 2070 and 2090) and (iii) to suggest areas for the conservation of the species in Mexico. Records were compiled from different national and international sources. Climate and topographic variables were used. With MaxEnt software version 3.4.3 (Phillips, New York, NY, USA) 100 distribution models were obtained, where the model showed an area under the curve of 0.905 for training and 0.906 for validation and partial ROC of 1.95 and Z reliable (p < 0.01), with TSS values > 0.80. The current area of the P. menziesii was 31,580.65 km2. The most important variables in the current and future distribution were maximum temperature of the hottest month, precipitation of the coldest trimester and average temperature of the coldest trimester. The percentage of permanence (resilience) for the 2030, 2050, 2070 and 2090 climate horizons was 49.79%, 25.14%, 17.45% and 16.46%, respectively, for the SSP 245 scenario. On the other hand, for the SSP 585 scenario and the analyzed horizons, the percentage resilience in areas of suitable habitat zones was 41.45%, 27.42%, 9.82% and 2.89%.

Published: July 2022

Caring is a crucial aspect of early childhood education (ECE) and is an essential attribute possessed by kindergarten teachers. The sustainable development of ECE in aging China calls for the sustainable development of teachers’ caring. However, research into teachers’ caring in education for sustainable development in ECE has been scarce. This paper aims to emphasize a concern for the theme of caring in the sustainability of ECE and to provide a Chinese perspective on this topic. This study explored the path to promote the sustainability of teachers’ caring from the perspective of Chinese kindergarten teachers, based on an analytical framework of cognition, emotion, will, and behavior. For this purpose, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 Chinese kindergarten teachers. The data were analyzed using MAXQDA, qualitative data analysis software, and the descriptive analysis technique. Main themes were generated and then the views were aligned under the themes. Research shows that reading, leisure and art activities, cultural immersion, and mentoring practice can bring many benefits to the promotion of teachers’ caring. Continuous reading can awaken teachers’ caring conscience and promote the sustainability of caring cognition while sufficient leisure and art activities can generate their caring emotions and promote their sustainability. Cultural immersion can cultivate teachers’ caring beliefs and promote the sustainability of caring will while mentoring practice can shape teachers’ caring behaviors and promote their sustainability. The four paths cited above successfully helped teachers overcome the obstacles to caring that they faced and promoted their caring abilities. This study provides systematic paths for promoting the sustainability of kindergarten teachers’ caring and emphasizes their self-care as critical to ensuring teachers’ caring. The necessity of providing effective institutional and policy support to promote the sustainable development of teachers’ caring is suggested.
Scenario Analysis of Energy-Related CO2 Emissions from Current Policies: A Case Study of Guangdong Province
Authors: Wang Junyao , Liu Anqi
Published: July 2022

Regional carbon management is essential for China to achieve the carbon reduction target. Studying the emission peak time and volume for Guangdong Province, which is the largest economic province with rapid carbon growth, is important for developing regions to formulate low-carbon policies. In this study, an end-use energy-based emission model integrating the guidelines for provincial CO2 emission peaking action plans and updated policies was developed to study the regional energy-related peaking time and emission scale. Taking Guangdong as a case, multiple scenarios were designed and analyzed considering factors of economic development, energy intensity, and structure. The results show that the energy-related CO2 cannot reach its peak by 2030 without control, even under low economic growth scenarios. Specifically, under high economic growth scenarios, the carbon peak can only be addressed by 2030 at around 0.65 Gt in the context of a strong transformation in energy structure as well as improvement in energy efficiency. Under medium and low economic scenarios, energy-related CO2 emissions will reach a plateau before 2030 between 0.61 and 0.64 Gt by implementing the medium and strengthening optimization of energy structure. Thus, effective measures are necessary for Guangdong’s peak target in both energy efficiency improvement and energy structure optimization. At last, this study puts forward policy recommendations for the low-carbon pathway of Guangdong Province, which can provide an experience for other regions in understanding their carbon emission trajectories and help policymakers enact appropriate actions.

Authors: Shi Jianwen , Yang Xiuyun
Published: July 2022

Accurate and quantitative assessments of rural development can offer important information for the formulation of rural development strategies. The purpose of this study was to provide a new perspective on the evaluation of rural sustainable development, overcoming the limitations of past studies that were based on simple analyses using a single method. In doing so, we aimed to provide a theoretical reference for formulating differentiated policies for regional rural development. In the present study, the rural development levels of 31 provincial administrative regions in China from 2000 to 2020 were analyzed based on the rural revitalization index framework, using five dimensions proposed in a previous study, i.e., industrial prosperity, ecological livability, rural civilization, effective governance, and a rich life. China’s rural sustainable development level was calculated using kernel density estimation and least squares estimation of temporal and spatial analyses. The results revealed that the development levels of rural areas in China are improving, but the improvement is not spatially consistent across rural areas. On the basis of the driving factors and causal mechanism, seven types of rural development levels were identified. We further analyzed the main reasons for the spatial differences in rural development levels and offer suggestions for improvement.

The paradigm of green finance is currently in the developmental stage in Bangladesh; however, it has drawn enormous interest in the global financial sector. Recently, researchers, academics, policymakers, and both the supply-side and demand-side of these funds are more serious in Green Finance and Sustainable Finance than ever before. In creating a greener economy, market players need to focus on sustainable development. All banks and NBFIs have to disburse the funded loan greater than or equal to 5% in green finance and 20% in sustainable finance according to BB policy guidelines. This paper examines the recent target accomplishment scenario of green finance and sustainable finance through banks and NBFIs in Bangladesh for the year of 2021 (four quarters). This study also observes the highest and lowest contributors in both schemes and is descriptive in nature. Data has been collected from secondary sources. According to the findings of this study, Bangladesh’s central bank has made significant accomplishments in the effort to green the country’s financial system by implementing several green policies and regulatory measures. This study also indicates the total target achievements of banks and NBFIs were 3.16% of 5% in the green finance of total loan disbursement and 9.32% of 20% in sustainable finance, which is still far behind the SDGs’ goal that must be achieved by 2030. The intention of this research is to encourage the supply and demand sides of the fund and to capitalize more on future research directions. Independent experts in this field are needed to confirm the findings of any further research.

Objective: The objective of this article is to define a correct diagnostic pathway for oropharyngeal cancer of unknown primary (OPCUP) identification. Background: OPCUP represents one of the most frequent causes of neck metastases onset without the identification of the primary tumor. Therefore, there is a high percentage of late or missing diagnoses, resulting in treatment delay or in a wrong therapeutic process. The up-to-date diagnostic procedures can help us to begin therapies at the right time. Methods: This is a review of the latest articles about diagnostic pathways in the OPCUP. A selection of the references was carried out in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and CENTRAL electronic databases. Conclusion: The oropharynx represents the most common site of primary unknown head and neck cancer (HNCUP). Recent epidemiologic data reported an increasing incidence of HNCUP related to human papilloma virus positive squamous cell carcinoma. Positron emission tomography combined with computerized tomography scanning or magnetic resonance imaging allows for improving the detection of primary unknown tumors and distant and locoregional metastases. Finally, the introduction of the trans-oral robotic surgical approach has introduced a new role of surgery in the HNCUP diagnosis and treatment. Hence, the new technological improvement allows reaching in most HNCUP patients an early diagnosis, achieving targeted management and better treatment outcomes, as well as decreasing toxicity and the side effects of treatment options.

Development and Applications of a Zebrafish (Danio rerio) CYP1A-Targeted Monoclonal Antibody (CRC4) with Reactivity across Vertebrate Taxa: Evidence for a Conserved CYP1A Epitope
Authors: Anderson Amy L. , Dubanksy Benjamin D. , Wilson Lindsay B. , Tanguay Robyn L. , Rice Charles D.
Published: July 2022

CYP1A is a heme-thiolate enzyme associated with the cytochrome P4501A1 monooxygenase system and is inducible by a wide variety of xenobiotics and endogenous ligands that bind and activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). The AHR-CYP1A axis is important for detoxification of certain xenobiotics and for homeostatic balance of endogenous sex hormones, amine hormones, vitamins, fatty acids, and phospholipids. Herein, we generated and described applications of a zebrafish CYP1A-targeted monoclonal antibody (mAb CRC4) that fortuitously recognizes induced CYP1A across vertebrate taxa, including fish, chicken, mouse, rat, and human. We then demonstrated that mAb CRC4 targets a highly conserved epitope signature of vertebrate CYP1A. The unique complimentary determining region (CDR) sequences of heavy and light chains were determined, and these Ig sequences will allow for the expression of recombinant mAb CRC4, thus superseding the need for long-term hybridoma maintenance. This antibody works well for immunohistochemistry (IHC), as well as whole-mounted IHC in zebrafish embryos. Monoclonal antibody CRC4 may be particularly useful for studying the AHR-CYP1A axis in multiple vertebrate species and within the context of Oceans and Human Health research. By using archived samples, when possible, we actively promoted efforts to reduce, replace, and refine studies involving live animals.

The effects of air pollution on the general public received much attention recently. Personal exposure and deposition fraction of aerosol particles were studied in Vilnius, Lithuania, focusing on individuals working in an office and driving to work. Aerosol monitoring in the urban background was found to give an indication of the minimum concentrations of particulate matter (PM) expected at urban roads, as these correspond to the lowest PM concentrations measured there. In March 2021, PM2.5 concentrations at the urban background monitoring station reached values above the annual limit of 5 μg/m3 the World Health Organization in 50% of cases. Our study shows significant differences in exposure to air pollution in a car cabin and in a modern office. According to the multiple-path particle dosimetry model, the exposure of the person in the office is about 14 times lower than driving a car, where the minute deposition dose for PM1 is 0.072 µg/min for the period when the PM2.5 concentration in the urban background reaches 10 µg/m³. Compared to the PM2.5 mass concentration at the urban background station, the mean PM2.5 concentration in the vehicle reaches values that are 2–3 times higher. During the working day, when driving takes less than 10% of the time considered (commuting plus working), PM exposure during driving accounts for about 80% of the PM exposure caused by PM concentration in the office.

Published: July 2022

The artificial locomotion control strategy is the fundamental technique to ensure the accomplishment of the preset assignments for cyborg insects. The existing research has recognized that the electrical stimulation applied to the optic lobes was an appropriate flight control strategy for small insects represented by honeybee. This control technique has been confirmed to be effective for honeybee flight initiation and cessation. However, its regulation effect on steering locomotion has not been fully verified. Here, we investigated the steering control effect of honeybee by applying electrical stimulation signals with different duty cycles and frequencies on the unilateral optic lobes and screened the stimulus parameters with the highest response successful rate. Moreover, we confirmed the effectiveness of steering control by verifying the presence of rotation torque on tethered honeybees and the body orientation change of crawling honeybees. Our study will contribute some reliable parameter references to the motion control of cyborg honeybees.
The Impact of Industrial Agglomeration on Urban Innovation: An Empirical Analysis in China
Authors: Li Shengsheng , Wang Yuanyuan
Published: July 2022

Based on the theory of industrial agglomeration affecting urban innovation, the panel data of 269 prefecture-level cities and above in China from 2011 to 2017 was used to empirically analyze the internal relationship between industrial agglomeration and urban innovation. The study found that overall industrial agglomeration and tertiary industry agglomeration have a significant promotion effect on urban innovation, while the secondary industry agglomeration does not significantly affect urban innovation; The overall industrial agglomeration and tertiary industrial agglomeration of eastern cities, large and medium-sized cities, and high-tech cities have a significant role in promoting urban innovation, while the promotion effects of mid-western cities, small-scale cities, low-tech, and medium-tech cities are not obvious; The secondary industry agglomeration has no significant impact on the innovation of all regional cities, large-scale cities, and cities with medium and high-tech levels, and the secondary industry agglomeration of low-tech cities also hinders urban innovation. However, with the improvement of the city's technological level, the effect of the concentration of secondary industries on urban innovation has gradually increased; Further analysis found that after using the PSM model to eliminate urban system differences, the basic conclusion that industrial agglomeration affects urban innovation is still valid. The secondary industry agglomeration has a threshold effect on urban innovation, and the effect of the secondary industry agglomeration on urban innovation will gradually increase with the increase of the degree of secondary industry agglomeration. It can be seen that China's high-quality secondary industry agglomeration effect has not yet formed. The above findings provide a theoretical basis for the rational formulation of industrial policies to promote urban innovation.
Values of Life of the People of Neithal Land

During the era of classical languages, classical literature can be seen in the writings of classical authors. There should be maturity in language, character, maturity, principles, broad mind, broad vision, idealism, high generality, dignity, control, discernment, character, clarity, etc. Any literature that is written in a language that does not have a high level of language development, richness, strength, and ability to mould itself according to time will not be considered classical literature. Similar to how the language is nurtured, literature written by such individuals cannot be considered classical literature since they lack character, a broad perspective, and a true heart. In this case, Tamil was a cultural language during the Sangam period. It can be known from its concepts. It is no exaggeration to say that this period was a fertile period for the emergence of classical literature. Among these ancient Sangam works, the Sangam literature accurately described the ancient people's living circumstances in the weaving department, which was divided into five categories. These are divided internally by prioritizing masculinity and femininity and highlighting the personality of the individual. Also in the Sangam literature, there are four that deal with time, soil, and life. They are Kurinji, Mullai, Marutham, Neithal, etc. A specific way of life and culture have been established for each department. Every sector has a distinct culture and way of life. These include textiles that depict coastal life. Additionally, coastal trading began in this area. The aim of this research article is to reveal the life values of the people who lived on this land.
A Study concerning the Execution of Security Right in a Judicial Security Deposit
Authors:   LAW RESEARCH INSTITUTE CHUNGBUK NATIONAL UNIVERSITY, Kim Gwang Su , Kim Gun Ho
Published: July 2022

A judicial security deposit is being made for trial to guarantee the damage the other party will receive due to the litigation act or provisional disposition. The Civil Procedure Act stipulates that the security right holder has the same right as the pledgee on the security (Article 123 of the Civil Procedure Act), and this applies to the Civil Execution Act (Article 19 of the Civil Execution Act).
At this time, in relation to the nature of the security right, there is an opinion that the security right holder has the right to pledge bonds on the right of the security obligor to claim the recovery of the deposit. However, this view is insufficient to protect the security right holder's rights, such as requiring a complicated procedure for the execution of the security right.
Furthermore, in the regulations on the withdrawal of payment of collateral deposits (Administrative Regulation No. 952), it is rather confusing in understanding the nature of security rights as both the method of requesting direct withdrawal for deposit and seizure procedure for the execution of the pledge are recognized. The seizure procedure for the execution of the pledge shall be recognized only when the purpose cannot be achieved by the method of exercising the direct withdrawal right. But it is confused that this regulation allows all the method of requesting direct withdrawal for deposit and seizure procedure for the execution of the pledge.
The reason why the provisions of our law stipulate that the depositor gave the same right as the pledgee to the security provided by the depositor in the trial security deposit means that the right to claim the collection of the deposit is established.
Therefore, the security right holder, who is the trustee, has the right to claim preferential withdrawal from the deposit(direct claim right), and this right must be understood as the purpose of the security right. This interpretation is considered to be consistent with the purpose of recognizing the security right to the security right holder for the object deposited as a security deposit in court.
Subject of Extinctive Prescription
Authors:   LAW RESEARCH INSTITUTE CHUNGBUK NATIONAL UNIVERSITY, Seo Jonghee
Published: July 2022

According to Article 162 of the Civil Code, The extinctive prescription of a claim shall become complete if not exercised for a period of ten years, the extinctive prescription of property rights, other than a claim and ownership, shall become complete if not exercised for a period of twenty years. In other words, our Civil Code makes property rights the subject of the extinctive prescription(statute of limitations). To sum up this article, it is as follows: 1. Ownership is not subject to the statute of limitations.
2. Whether an Anspruch(right to claims) is subject to a statute of limitations depends on what the legal nature of the Anspruch is. Thus, while the right can be granted in a number of situations, the statute of limitation against the right differs depending on why the right is granted and what kind of legal nature it has. For example, whether the right to claim(Anspruch) registration cannot be enforced due to statute of limititations or not is the most important in resolving such issues. The right to claim(Anspruch) registration under the contract of sale corresponds to a claims as property right, and therefore has a statute of limitations of 10 years. However, it would be reasonable to assume that claim(Anspruch) based on a real right is not subject to a statute of limitations.
3. The right to formation(Gestaltungsrechte) can also be regarded as a property right, if it can be subject to a statute of limitations.
4. The property rights, other than a claim and ownership will have to be different whether it is subject to a statute of limitations. In other words, the outcome will vary depending on how the right is exercised.
