Authors: Shi Jiangang , Duan Kaifeng , Wu Guangdong , Si Hongyun , Zhang Rui 
Published: September 2021

AbstractIn recent years, sustainability at the community level has drawn attention from academic circles. However, no studies attempt to comprehensively explore the research field reflecting sustainability at the community level (hereinafter referred to as SC field). To fill this knowledge gap, this study makes an unprecedented attempt to draw the general aspects, intellectual structure and conceptual evolution of the SC field from 1992 to 2020. Using a set of sustainability‐related terms to delineate the boundary of the SC field, a total of 416 journal articles published in the databases of Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) and Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) were used to conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis. Interpretation of main findings of the bibliometric analysis and implications for future trends of the SC field have been discussed. This study can provide a new reference for scholars to better understand the research status and knowledge domains of the SC field.
Bond deterioration effects on corroded RC bridge pier in seismic zone
Authors: Bartolozzi Mara , Casas Joan R. , Domaneschi Marco 
Published: September 2021

AbstractThe effects of corrosion focusing on the consequences of bond strength deterioration for a reinforced concrete bridge pier in a seismic affected area are examined in this research. A bond degradation model based on the local bond stress‐slip model presented in FIB Model Code 2010 is chosen. A motorway overpass object of a previous study, which considered the rebars cross‐section reduction effect only, has been selected to assess the seismic capacity of the corroded pier in the time domain when bond degradation due to corrosion is also taken into account. The modification of strength capacity and ductility of the structural element is analyzed and the effect of corrosion during the whole service life of the structure is obtained. It is concluded that the effect of bond degradation is more critical for the safety of the pier than the effect of rebars cross‐section loss.

Published: September 2021

AbstractSalt‐inducible kinase 2 (SIK2) has been reported to be involved in cancer progression in a dichotomous manner. However, the role and mechanism of action of SIK2 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression remain elusive. SIK2 expression in HCC tissues in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was analyzed using the AIPuFu platform. SIK2 expression in HCC cells was examined by quantitative real‐time PCR and western blot analysis. The expression of N‐cadherin, E‐cadherin, β‐catenin, and c‐Myc was detected by western blot analysis. SIK2 was downregulated in HCC tissues compared with normal patients, and low SIK2 expression was correlated with poor prognosis in HCC patients in TCGA database. SIK2 was lowly expressed in HCC cells than that in normal human liver epithelial cells. SIK2 overexpression inhibited cell proliferation and invasion and promoted apoptosis in HCC cells, while SIK2 silencing exerted the opposite effects. Additionally, SIK2 overexpression inactivated the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in HCC cells, as evidenced by the reduced expression of β‐catenin and c‐Myc. β‐catenin overexpression rescued the inhibitory effects of SIK2 on the malignant properties of HCC cells. Xenograft tumor experiment confirmed that SIK2 suppressed the growth of HCC cells in vivo. In conclusion, SIK2 exerted anti‐tumor activity in HCC via inactivating the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway.
An efficient numerical simulation of nonlinear‐dispersive model of shallow water wave
Authors: Labidi Samira , Rouatbi Asma , Omrani Khaled 
Published: September 2021

AbstractThis paper studied a linearized conservative high‐order finite difference scheme for a model of nonlinear dispersive equation: the regularized long wave‐Korteweg de Vries (RLW‐KdV) equation. The scheme is proved to be conservative, uniquely solvable, and conditionally stable. The convergence of the difference scheme is proved by using the energy method to be of fourth‐order in space and second‐order in time in the discrete ‐norm. An application on the regularized long wave and the modified regularized long wave equations are discussed numerically in details. Furthermore, interaction of solitary waves with different amplitudes is shown. The three invariants of the motion are evaluated to determine the conservation proprieties of the system. Several numerical examples are presented in order to validate the theoretical results and compared with other existing methods. Comparison reveals that our linearized difference improves the accuracy and shortens computation time largely.
‘It Would Be Silly to Stop Now and Go Part-Time’: Fathers and Flexible Working Arrangements in Australia
Authors: Borgkvist Ashlee 
Published: September 2021

AbstractExpectations of fathering have changed over the past few decades, and it appears fathers are increasingly participating in care activities. Despite this, the capacity for Australian men to participate in child rearing is impeded by limitations around flexible working arrangements. The link between fathering, masculinity, paid work, and the persistent expectation that fathers will be the financial providers within the family unit is examined in this chapter. The influence of this gendered expectation on Australian policy development is briefly discussed, and some recommendations provided for policy makers, organizations, and fathers.
The Role of Love and Children’s Agency in Improving Fathers’ Wellbeing
Authors: Macht Alexandra 
Published: September 2021

AbstractThis chapter focuses on father-child wellbeing arguing that fathers are emotionally transformed by having a child and that children have a beneficial influence on father’s health and positive engagement in work. Previous research described how involved fatherhood offers men the opportunity to resist practices of risk-taking, denial of treatment, expression of anger, which are harmful to their health. However, studies on the relationship between fathers and children often overlook the mutual beneficial effects that these family members have on each other. Based on findings from 47 qualitative interviews and 6 observations with Scottish and Romanian involved fathers and their children, I show how children were described by fathers as re-energizing them for work and helping them let go of negative health habits, such as smoking, drugs, and reckless driving. Fathers in turn, adopted a long-term perspective for their health and wellbeing brought on by planning for the future. Conclusively, children seem to play an important role in counteracting the toxic aspects of masculinity, as children were described as helping fathers shift emotionally from stoicism and control to increased nurturance and emotional openness, thereby affecting their wellbeing in positive ways.

Published: September 2021

AbstractSynthetic biology uses engineering-based modeling and building techniques to modify existing organisms and microbes or to construct them from scratch. The rate of development and research related to synthetic biology for both industry and academia has increased over the past two decades (Ahteensuu 2017), with applications in medicine (new vaccines, delivery of therapeutics, and treatments), energy (biofuels), environmental remediation, food production, and general industry (detergents, adhesives, perfumes) (Evans and Selgelid 2015; Gronvall 2015).
Technical Aspects of Biosecurity: Screening Guidance, Attribution, and Traceability
Authors: Appleton Evan , Millett Piers 
Published: September 2021

AbstractBiosecurity is a multi-disciplinary topic that covers areas of policy, public health, economics, and science. This chapter focuses on the technical scientific aspects of the current international biosecurity framework. We discuss these technical areas in terms time horizon. We begin this chapter with review of current technology within the international biosecurity framework and discuss weakness and opportunities for further work. We then focus on near-term technical developments and imminent opportunities to strengthen the existing framework. Specifically, we break down the range of issues into biological threat prevention, detection, and response. We discuss how technical tools can assist in policy development and the engineering cycle of Design, Built, and Test. Finally, this chapter describes a ‘futuring’ exercise conducted by the working group that created this chapter to explore broader longer-term issues in the biosecurity space.
Responsible Governance of Biosecurity in Armenia
Authors: Malsch Ineke , Espona Maria 
Published: September 2021

AbstractThis chapter analyses a case study of responsible governance of dual use life sciences and biosecurity in Armenia. It is based on materials presented during a Responsible Research and Innovation Course in Armenia, held on 17–19 May 2019. The course was organised as part of the ISTC Targeted Initiative (TI) on CBRN Export Control and Dual Use in Central Asia. The focus of the case study is on ethical aspects and how collective responsibility for biosecurity can be organised, in order to prevent innovation from undermining international law prohibiting hostile uses of life sciences.
Naturalness and the muon magnetic moment
Authors: Arkani-Hamed Nima , Harigaya Keisuke 
Published: September 2021

Abstract
We study a predictive model for explaining the apparent deviation of the muon anomalous magnetic moment from the Standard Model expectation. There are no new scalars and hence no new hierarchy puzzles beyond those associated with the Higgs; the only new particles at the TeV scale are vector-like singlet and doublet leptons. Interestingly, this simple model provides a calculable example violating the Wilsonian notion of naturalness: despite the absence of any symmetries prohibiting its generation, the coefficient of the naively leading dimension-six operator for (g − 2) vanishes at one-loop. While effective field theorists interpret this either as a surprising UV cancellation of power divergences, or as a delicate cancellation between matching UV and calculable IR corrections to (g − 2) from parametrically separated scales, there is a simple explanation in the full theory: the loop integrand is a total derivative of a function vanishing in both the deep UV and IR. The leading contribution to (g − 2) arises from dimension-eight operators, and thus the required masses of new fermions are lower than naively expected, with a sizeable portion of parameter space already covered by direct searches at the LHC. The viable parameter space free of fine-tuning for the muon mass will be fully covered by future direct LHC searches, and all of the parameter space can be probed by precision measurements at planned future lepton colliders.
Notes on flat-space limit of AdS/CFT
Authors: Li Yue-Zhou 
Published: September 2021

Abstract
Different frameworks exist to describe the flat-space limit of AdS/CFT, include momentum space, Mellin space, coordinate space, and partial-wave expansion. We explain the origin of momentum space as the smearing kernel in Poincare AdS, while the origin of latter three is the smearing kernel in global AdS. In Mellin space, we find a Mellin formula that unifies massless and massive flat-space limit, which can be transformed to coordinate space and partial-wave expansion. Furthermore, we also manage to transform momentum space to smearing kernel in global AdS, connecting all existed frameworks. Finally, we go beyond scalar and verify that $$ \left\langle VV\mathcal{O}\right\rangle $$

Well-Posedness for a Modified Bidomain Model Describing Bioelectric Activity in Damaged Heart Tissues
Authors: Amar M. , Andreucci D. , Timofte C. 
Published: September 2021

AbstractWe prove the existence and the uniqueness of a solution for a modified bidomain model, describing the electrical behaviour of the cardiac tissue in pathological situations. The leading idea is to reduce the problem to an abstract parabolic setting, which requires to introduce several auxiliary differential systems and a non-standard bilinear form. The main difficulties are due to the degeneracy of the bidomain system and to its non-standard coupling with a diffusion equation, accounting for the presence of the pathological zone in the heart tissue.
Societal importance of Antarctic negative feedbacks on climate change: blue carbon gains from sea ice, ice shelf and glacier losses

AbstractDiminishing prospects for environmental preservation under climate change are intensifying efforts to boost capture, storage and sequestration (long-term burial) of carbon. However, as Earth’s biological carbon sinks also shrink, remediation has become a key part of the narrative for terrestrial ecosystems. In contrast, blue carbon on polar continental shelves have stronger pathways to sequestration and have increased with climate-forced marine ice losses—becoming the largest known natural negative feedback on climate change. Here we explore the size and complex dynamics of blue carbon gains with spatiotemporal changes in sea ice (60–100 MtCyear−1), ice shelves (4–40 MtCyear−1 = giant iceberg generation) and glacier retreat (< 1 MtCyear−1). Estimates suggest that, amongst these, reduced duration of seasonal sea ice is most important. Decreasing sea ice extent drives longer (not necessarily larger biomass) smaller cell-sized phytoplankton blooms, increasing growth of many primary consumers and benthic carbon storage—where sequestration chances are maximal. However, sea ice losses also create positive feedbacks in shallow waters through increased iceberg movement and scouring of benthos. Unlike loss of sea ice, which enhances existing sinks, ice shelf losses generate brand new carbon sinks both where giant icebergs were, and in their wake. These also generate small positive feedbacks from scouring, minimised by repeat scouring at biodiversity hotspots. Blue carbon change from glacier retreat has been least well quantified, and although emerging fjords are small areas, they have high storage-sequestration conversion efficiencies, whilst blue carbon in polar waters faces many diverse and complex stressors. The identity of these are known (e.g. fishing, warming, ocean acidification, non-indigenous species and plastic pollution) but not their magnitude of impact. In order to mediate multiple stressors, research should focus on wider verification of blue carbon gains, projecting future change, and the broader environmental and economic benefits to safeguard blue carbon ecosystems through law.
Ultimate lateral pressures exerted on buried pipelines by the initiation of submarine landslides
Authors: Zhang Weiyuan , Askarinejad Amin 
Published: September 2021

AbstractSubmarine slope instabilities are considered one of the major threats for offshore buried pipelines. This paper presents a novel method to evaluate the ultimate pressure acting on a buried pipeline during the liquefaction of an inclined seabed. Small-scale model tests with pipes buried at three different embedment ratios have been conducted at an enhanced centrifugal acceleration condition. A high-speed, high-resolution imaging system was developed to quantify the soil displacement field of the soil body and to visualize the development of the liquefied zone. The measured lateral pressures were compared with the hybrid approach proposed for the landslide–pipeline interaction in clay-rich material by Randolph and White (2012) and Sahdi et al. (2014). The hybrid approach is proved to be able to predict later pressures induced by the movement of (partially) liquefied sand on buried pipelines. It is found that the fluid inertia (fluid dynamics) component plays an important role when the non-Newtonian Reynolds number >~2 or the shear strain rate > 4.5 × 10−2sec−1.
An IPCC that listens: introducing reciprocity to climate change communication
Authors: Dudman Karl , de Wit Sara 
Published: September 2021

AbstractAs the epistemic hand in the UNFCCC’S political glove, the IPCC is charged with furnishing the global dialogues with ‘reliable knowledge’ on climate change. Much has been written about how this body of scientific information can be communicated more effectively to a diverse public, but considerably less so on the role communication might play in making the IPCC itself more receptive to alternative forms of contribution. Climate change communication remains centred on a unidirectional model that has helped climate science achieve greater public legibility, but so far not explored equivalent channels within institutional thinking for representing public and other non-scientific knowledges. Anticipating a new assessment report and major developments for the Paris Agreement, now is an opportunity to consider ambitious pathways to reciprocity in the IPCC’s communication strategy. Drawing on interdisciplinary insights from social science literatures, we argue that communication is not only inseparable from knowledge politics in the IPCC, but that communication activities and research may prove key avenues for making the IPCC more inclusive. Recognising climate communication as a developed field of study and practice with significant influence in the IPCC, we present a framework for categorising communicative activities into those which help the panelspeakwith a more human voice, and those that help itlistenreceptively to alternative forms of knowledge. The latter category especially invites communicators to decouple ‘epistemic authority’ from ‘scientific authority’, and so imagine new forms of expert contribution. This is critical to enabling active and equitable dialogue with underrepresented publics that democratises climate governance, and enhances the public legitimacy of the IPCC.

AbstractWe present the scientific motivation for future space tests of the equivalence principle, and in particular the universality of free fall, at the 10− 17 level or better. Two possible mission scenarios, one based on quantum technologies, the other on electrostatic accelerometers, that could reach that goal are briefly discussed. This publication is a White Paper written in the context of the Voyage 2050 ESA Call for White Papers.

AbstractCosmic history has witnessed the lives and deaths of multiple generations of massive stars, all of them invigorating their host galaxies with ionizing photons, kinetic energy, fresh material, and stellar-mass black holes. Ubiquitous engines as they are, astrophysics needs a good understanding of their formation, evolution, properties and yields throughout the history of the Universe, and with decreasing metal content mimicking the environment at the earliest epochs. Ultimately, a physical model that could be extrapolated to zero metallicity would enable tackling long-standing questions such as “What did the first, very massive stars of the Universe look like?” or “What was their role in the re-ionization of the Universe?” Yet, most of our knowledge of metal-poor massive stars is drawn from one single point in metallicity. Massive stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC, $\sim $
∼
1/5Z⊙ ) currently serve as templates for low-metallicity objects in the early Universe, even though significant differences with respect to massive stars with poorer metal content have been reported. This White Paper summarizes the current knowledge on extremely (sub-SMC) metal poor massive stars, highlighting the most outstanding open questions and the need to supersede the SMC as standard. A new paradigm can be built from nearby extremely metal-poor galaxies that make a new metallicity ladder, but massive stars in these galaxies are out of reach to current observational facilities. Such a task would require an L-size mission, consisting of a 10m-class space telescope operating in the optical and the ultraviolet ranges. Alternatively, we propose that ESA unites efforts with NASA to make the LUVOIR mission concept a reality, thus continuing the successful partnership that made the Hubble Space Telescope one of the greatest observatories of all time.
Dovish and Hawkish Influence in Distributive and Integrative Negotiations: The Role of (A)symmetry in Constituencies
Authors: Aaldering Hillie , Kopelman Shirli 
Published: September 2021

AbstractDovish and hawkish constituency pressures influence representative negotiations. Dovish constituency voices promote a collaborative and problem-solving approach, but can also allow for exploitation in negotiations. Hawkish voices encourage a competitive approach, but may leave value on the table. These dynamics are investigated in four experiments. In two interactive dyadic-negotiation experiments (Experiments 1 & 2; N = 186 and N = 220), we investigated how constituency pressures influenced outcomes in two negotiation settings (distributive and integrative). Representatives of dovish constituencies reached higher negotiation outcomes than representatives of hawkish constituencies, when facing a representative with a similar constituency (Experiment 1). However, when representatives with a dovish constituency met with representatives of a hawkish constituency, dovish representatives reached lower gains in both negotiation settings (Experiment 2). This hawkish advantage was replicated in two online scenario studies (Experiments 3 & 4; N = 248 and N = 319). There was no consistent empirical support for the role of a potential future interaction in eliciting representatives’ concessions (Experiment 1–3), however, an absence of accountability to constituents reduced representatives’ competitiveness, irrespective of whom they represented (Experiment 4). Theoretical and practical implications for labor relations, diplomacy, and business negotiations are discussed.
