Power in the Home: Digital Housekeeping and Its Relevance to Information Behaviour, PIM, and Information Ethics
Authors: Ochsner Catharina , Dinneen Jesse David 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTDigital housekeeping (DH) is an emerging research topic focused on the labour and social implications of setting up and maintaining technology in the home. Although examined by multiple fields, the literature on DH has yet to be reviewed and its potential overlap and synergy with library and information science (LIS) have yet to be explored. We therefore conducted a tool‐supported review of 26 scholarly publications on DH. Below we summarise the people‐ and relationship‐focused sub‐topics and findings of DH literature and explore promising directions for future research in LIS, particularly in information behaviour and personal information management. The poster visually maps the sub‐topics and disciplinary connections.
Exploring Historians' Critical Use of Generative AI Technologies for History Education
Authors: Pope Andrew , Ma Rongqian 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTThe newest editions of generative AI (GenAI) tools demonstrate profound capabilities that promise to reshape education. It is of vital interest to determine how these applications will modify how the public perceives and interacts with history, as well as how history education is delivered. In this poster, we investigated academic historians' practices and perceptions of integrating GenAI into their teaching. We conducted semi‐structured interviews with seven historians who teach university‐level courses. We identified the major concerns and perceived benefits of GenAI integration in history education, and some typical uses of GenAI in history classes. Our work contributes an important baseline assessment of attitudes and practices within the field so that we may better understand the existing gaps among academic historians and the extent of those gaps.
Teaching Linked Data Principles through Virtual Wikidata Edit‐a‐thons
Authors: Swierenga Marianne 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTCataloging and metadata professionals in libraries have an interest in learning about the Semantic Web and Linked Data technologies. However, with limited release time and funding for continuing education, professional development opportunities need to be designed with learner needs in mind: free, flexible, and fun. Our regional Linked Data interest group approached this challenge by developing an annual program in the form of a five‐day edit‐a‐thon, providing training and hands‐on experience in creating and editing Wikidata. The flexible format makes use of synchronous video conferencing, detailed online documentation, independent editing days for hands‐on learning, and opt‐in community discussion via Slack. Individual and project progress was tracked with the Wikimedia Event Dashboard. This poster proposes the Wikidata edit‐a‐thon as an ideal method to fulfill a professional development need of library staff by introducing participants to the principles of Linked Data through this flexible and interactive event.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTResearch teams naturally appear from long‐term collaborations. However, effectively tracking their evolution, showing cross‐team participation, and defining team activity periods pose significant challenges. To address these issues, we propose an innovative method involving the computation of an annual active index for each researcher. We applied our method to analyze the solid‐state battery domain. Leveraging co‐inventor relationships, we found 246 teams, categorized into three groups based on their size. Approximately one‐third of these teams drive technological development, with more than half of the members taking part in multiple teams simultaneously.
The Effect of Stressful Life Events on Online Privacy Protective Behavior of Israeli Students
Authors: Weinberger Maor , Bouhnik Dan 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTThis exploratory study investigates the influence of stressful life events on privacy‐protective behavior. We examine the effects of the ongoing state of war in Israel on the rate of deliberate falsification of personal details during website registration, in a user study of 107 students at Israeli universities. The students were queried using a quantitative method in online closed‐ended questionnaires. This research builds on our previous work (Weinberger & Bouhnik, 2021) examining the effects of other stressful life events, specifically the COVID‐19 pandemic, on the privacy‐protective behavior of Israeli students. We found that distrust of website operators and the desire to remain anonymous are the most common reasons for identity falsification. In addition, our analysis showed that the greater the concern over privacy, the more likely identity falsification was to occur. The Israel‐Hamas War in Israel seems to have exacerbated privacy concerns among online users, in turn increasing the tendency of users to exhibit privacy‐protective behavior.
What Is Left Unsaid: Ongoing Tacit Knowledge Loss from the Pandemic
Authors: Willson Rebekah , Dalkir Kimiz , Montazeri Peymon 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTRemote work and its challenges have been around for decades, yet the COVID19 pandemic brought these challenges to the fore and prompted organisations to address them. One of the challenges is the potential loss of tacit knowledge (knowledge that resides in the heads of “knowers”) among knowledge workers by shifting from in‐person to remote work. This paper reports on the initial findings of a pilot study that interviewed knowledge workers about the interruption of information sharing, the importance of technology to resemble in‐person working, and organization adaptability. The findings highlight the importance of in‐person interactions to exchanging tacit information but indicates that for organisations that are resilient, technology can mimic in‐person sharing.
“Our Privacy Needs to be Protected Equally as Everybody's”—A Preliminary Study of Crowdsourced Delivery Riders' Privacy Concerns in China
Authors: Ye Yuxiang , Xia Huichuan , Liu Chang 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTDelivery riders belong to crowd workers in the gig economy, representing a vulnerable group. Their privacy concerns and protection have not been duly investigated. To address this research problem, we surveyed to examine the issue of crowdsourced delivery riders' privacy concerns in China. It was found that these riders had often experienced privacy breaches and expressed major privacy concerns, such as the leakage of facial recognition information and contact details. Moreover, they lacked sufficient awareness of the Crowdwork platform's surveillance and knowledge of the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) in China. It is suggested that PIPL target vulnerable groups in addition to the general public, and privacy research in Human‐Computer Interaction (HCI) in China should focus on vulnerable populations like crowdsourced delivery riders.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTThe rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) has led to significant innovations but also raised ethical concerns. Researchers and students designed an ethical online game in this study to spread awareness about making informed decisions when using AI and ML. Conducted within a directed research group (DRG) curricular method, the study engages students as co‐researchers to develop a game, from developing ideas to playtesting the game in a class setting. The study employs a quantitative methodology to analyze a survey that 32 students, each with diverse backgrounds and knowledge in game development, conducted after each class session over three semesters. Findings indicate that self‐reported engagement changes depending on the activities done in each session, with students feeling capable of contributing to research and game design.

Published: October 2024

AbstractThe anisotropic and irreversible expansion properties of polymer‐bonded explosives (PBX) can significantly influence the utility and reliability of associated equipment. The physical state of PBX under temperature cycling affects the strain distribution across the surface of cylindrical specimens. This strain is indicative of the irreversible growth and anisotropic expansion of the specimens. In this study, fiber Bragg grating sensors are employed to monitor the strain of PBX throughout the temperature cycling process, and our focus was on analyzing the changes in anisotropy and strain distribution during the cycle. The relationships between strain, temperature, material properties, and differences among various materials are examined. Experimental results indicate that the strain along the height and radial directions of the PBX specimens displayed a monotonic gradient distribution, increasing progressively in areas of higher density. TATB‐based PBX exhibited anisotropic expansion throughout the temperature cycling, with the degree of anisotropy increasing during heating and decreasing upon cooling. Conversely, HMX‐based PBX showed greater expansion in the height direction during both the heating and cooling phases, but it did not display noticeable anisotropy following the temperature cycling. At the highest temperature‐holding stage (100°C), the HMX‐based PBX was isotropic. The extent of strain in PBX was correlated with the thermal expansion coefficient of the crystal, although the final degree of expansion was not dependent on the initial range of strain. The ratchet growth of TATB‐based PBX was approximately 31 μϵ greater than that of HMX‐based PBX.

Published: October 2024

AbstractImproving the safety of explosive materials through the synthesis of insensitive explosives has been studied extensively. However, little work has focused on creating switchable explosives. A switchable explosive is normally insensitive to detonation, and therefore safe to handle and transport, but can be sensitized when needed to create a functional explosive. Similarly, it may be desired to desensitize an explosive to prevent its function. This study examined the ability to create a switchable 1,3,5‐trinitro‐1,3,5‐triazinane (RDX)‐based rubberized explosive using thermally‐expandable microspheres (TEMs). The addition of TEMs to the explosive formulation allowed for microstructural changes and potential hot spot locations to form as the microspheres expanded. Small voids (less than about 10 μm) are more likely to be critical hot spots when shocked, and likewise larger voids are less likely to ignite successfully (sub‐critical) when shocked. Consequently, both sensitization and desensitization are possible. The rubberized explosive considered here with unexpanded microspheres was unable to sustain a detonation for the size used, but after specific heating followed by cooling to produce small voids, a detonation was achieved. The TEMs addition to the RDX‐based rubberized explosive resulted in an explosive that is detonation insensitive when unheated but becomes a functional explosive after it is sensitized through heating. This paves the way to create insensitive explosive formulations with on‐demand switchable detonation function through the incorporation of thermally‐expandable microspheres. Desensitization was also demonstrated with specific heating of TEMs in an initially detonable explosive charge. Finally, we also demonstrated that deflagration can be affected by heating TEMs.

AbstractBACKGROUNDRachiplusia nu (Guenée) was historically a secondary soybean pest in Brazil, but a key soybean pest in Argentina. From 2021 onwards, injury caused by R. nu has been reported in soybean that expresses the Cry1Ac toxin from Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner) in both countries. In this study, we selected resistant and susceptible strains of R. nu to Cry1Ac using Cry1Ac‐containing leaf tissue and characterized the inheritance of resistance, cross‐resistance patterns and fitness cost.RESULTSNeonates of the Cry1Ac‐resistant strain of R. nu were able to develop on Cry1Ac soybean leaves and emerge as fertile adults, while neonates from the susceptible and heterozygous strains did not survive beyond 10 days. The resistance ratio to Cry1Ac estimated in diet‐overlay bioassays in the resistant strain was > 736.92‐fold. The inheritance pattern of Cry1Ac resistance in R. nu was characterized as autosomal recessive and monogenic. The Cry1Ac‐resistant strain of R. nu also exhibited high resistance to Cry1A.105 (resistance ratio > 159.87‐fold), but negligible resistance to Cry2Ab2 (resistance ratio = 1.25‐fold). Life history data showed that the resistance to Cry1Ac in R. nu is not associated with a substantial fitness cost.CONCLUSIONSThe inheritance pattern of Cry1Ac resistance in R. nu is autosomal recessive, monogenic and not associated with obvious fitness costs. Cross‐resistance occurred between Cry1Ac and Cry1A.105 in R. nu but not between Cry1Ac and Cry2Ab2, indicating that Cry1A.105/Cry2Ab2/Cry1Ac soybean is a valuable tool to manage Cry1Ac resistance in R. nu. This is the first study reporting the genetic basis of Cry1Ac resistance in R. nu. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.
Predictability of midlatitude Rossby‐wave packets

Published: October 2024

AbstractRossby‐wave packets (RWPs) along the midlatitude jet are a fundamental ingredient of extratropical dynamics. RWPs have been linked to enhanced atmospheric predictability and the occurrence of extreme weather events. We here investigate the predictability of Northern Hemispheric RWPs as physical entities, defined by enhanced values of the Rossby‐wave envelope field. Using a catalogue of RWPs identified and tracked in reanalysis data, we analyze RWP predictability in a 19‐year period of NOAA GEFSv12 reforecasts. Our analysis adopts the so‐called distance and amplitude score (DAS), a verification metric that avoids both the double‐penalty issue of field‐based verification of coherent features and the complications of an object‐based approach. Applied to the envelope field, forecast errors defined by this metric asymptote towards saturation, but do not completely reach saturation within the 10 days lead time available to this study. The growth rate of the median DAS is highest initially and decreases with lead time. This is a nontrivial result, because the underlying envelope field largely de‐emphasizes phase information, but still exhibits very similar error‐growth characteristics to fields that contain the full phase information. Variations in RWP predictability are dominated by the stage of the RWP life cycle, with higher predictability found for the propagation stage than the onset and decay stages. In addition, RWP predictability exhibits a seasonal cycle, with higher predictability in winter than in summer. Controlling for seasonality and the stage of the life cycle, we find that (i) high‐amplitude RWPs exhibit higher predictability than low‐amplitude RWPs up to 6 days lead time and (ii) there is a general pattern of relatively high predictability over Eurasia. Finally, predictability of the propagating stage is higher if forecasts are initialized after RWP onset than if initialized before onset. In this sense, RWP onset acts as a predictability barrier to the subsequent propagation stage.

Published: October 2024

AbstractChiral interaction between light and quantum emitters leads to emergence development of chiral quantum optics and stimulates a wide range of practical applications in quantum regime, such as single‐photon isolation and photon unidirectional emission. Cavity optomechanics studying the interaction between optical and mechanical resonators plays an important role in the field of quantum optics. However, how to achieve the chiral interaction between light and mechanical oscillators and explore the applications of the chiral optomechanical systems are still difficult encountered in cavity optomechanics. Here, a method is proposed to achieve chiral optomechanical interaction by exploiting directional squeezed light in a multimode optomechanical system. Based on the chiral interaction between photon and phonon, the nonreciprocal photon transport at a single‐photon level can be realized. An isolation ratio of and a negligible insertion loss for the photonic isolator are obtained. This method paves the way to realize chiral optomechanical interaction for conducting chiral optomechanics and opens up the prospect of exploring and utilizing chiral photon–phonon manipulation in the quantum regime.
Event‐Triggered Secure Control of Positive Networked Control Systems Under Multi‐Channels Attacks
Authors: Qiu Hongling , Shen Jun , Xing Wei , Wang Ruiying 
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACTThis paper focuses on the secure control of positive networked control systems under multi‐channel attacks characterized by a Bernoulli distribution. Specifically, the sensor‐to‐controller channel suffers from false data injection (FDI) attacks, whereas the controller‐to‐actuator channel suffers from denial of service (DoS) attacks. The objective is to design a static output feedback controller that guarantees the positivity and stochastic stability of the closed‐loop system in the presence of DoS and FDI attacks. To conserve communication resources, we employ an event‐triggered scheme to reduce the frequency of information transmission. Due to the positivity of the system, the proposed event‐triggering mechanism employs the 1‐norm form instead of the 2‐norm form, which allows that the controller parameter is determined via linear programming rather than LMI technique. Finally, two simulation examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of our methods.

Published: October 2024

AbstractResponsive polymers can react to surrounding environments by changing their physical and/or chemical properties. Among them, liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) have emerged as one of the important branches in the field of applied polymer science due to their significant advantages in flexible mechanics and shape memory. Manufacturing LCE fibers with a large specific surface area and functional fillers has become a research hotspot in recent years. This type of LCE‐contained fibrous composite (LCEF) exhibits not only extremely high response sensitivity but also excellent axial mechanical strength and a high degree of deformation freedom. In this paper, we provide a bird's eye view of recent developments in LCEF, including structural designs, synthesis and forming methods, mechanical response principles and modes. Furthermore, we discuss recent advances of LCEF in artificial muscles, smart textiles, biomimetic systems, intelligent soft machines, followed by challenges and possible routes in fabrications and applications of LCEF. At the end, we aim to provide a perspective for an emerging field of stimulus‐responsive polymeric fiber composites.

Published: October 2024

AbstractTo ensure the quality and effectiveness of nanoparticle material for specific applications, it is essential to eliminate contaminants or unreacted substances produced during the green synthesis process using leaf extract. In this study, dialysis membranes with a molecular weight cut‐off (MWCO) of approximately 12,000–14,000 Dalton (Da) were employed to remove metal ions, chlorides, and polyphenols from the zerovalent bimetallic nanoparticles (BNPs) suspension, instead of using centrifugation or filtration, which causes solvent loss to the environment. Our research results showed that the efficiency of removing impurities and residual components achieved by the dialysis membrane was relatively high. Furthermore, alterations in specific characteristics of BNPs following dialysis were also observed and discussed.
