Mathematical modelling of sensitization and desensitization in austenitic alloys using Gaussian-based peak models
Authors: Ahmedabadi Parag M 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This study presents four Gaussian-based mathematical models for accurately simulating the sensitization and desensitization processes in austenitic alloys. By incorporating temperature and time as variables, these models aim to predict the Degree of Sensitization (DOS) and generate Time-Temperature-Sensitization (TTS) diagrams. Validation using experimental datasets shows that the models perform well across various datasets, minimizing over-fitting when peak sensitization data is adequately provided. The models also introduce a statistical index to assess accuracy, combining fitting parameters systematically. This work offers a comprehensive tool for investigating localized corrosion phenomena and supports the development of strategies to control chromium depletion during heat treatments, relevant for stainless steel and nickel-based alloys.

Abstract
With the growing importance of wearable and portable electronics in modern society and industry, researchers from all over the world have reported on advances in energy harvesting and self-powered sensing technologies. The current review discusses recent developments in triboelectric platforms from a manufacturing perspective, including material, design, application, and industrialization. Manufacturing is an essential component of both industry and technology. The use of a proper manufacturing process enables cutting-edge technology in a lab-scale stage to progress to commercialization and popularization with scalability, availability, commercial advantage, and consistent quality. Furthermore, much literature has emphasized that the most powerful advantage of the triboelectric platform is its wide range of available materials and simple working mechanism, both of which are important characteristics in manufacturing engineering. As a result, different manufacturing processes can be implemented as needed. Because the practical process can have a synergetic effect on the fundamental development, resulting in the growth of both, the development of the triboelectric platform from the standpoint of manufacturing engineering can be further advanced. However, research into the development of a productive manufacturing process is still in its early stages in the field of triboelectric platforms. This review looks at the various manufacturing technologies used in previous studies and discusses the potential benefits of the appropriate process for triboelectric platforms. Given its unique strength, which includes a diverse material selection and a simple working mechanism, the triboelectric platform can use a variety of manufacturing technologies and the process can be optimized as needed. Numerous research groups have clearly demonstrated the triboelectric platform’s advantages. As a result, using appropriate manufacturing processes can accelerate the technological advancement of triboelectric platforms in a variety of research and industrial fields by allowing them to move beyond the lab-scale fabrication stage.
Fast and Smooth Control of Converter’s DC-Link Voltage Using Optimal Fractional-Order Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Controller
Authors: Asakereh Aghil 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The need to use fully controlled AC/DC converters for DC-based power supply systems has led to structural development and improved performance. Due to existence of various distribution network loads sensitive to noise and fluctuation, PWM-based converters cannot provide accurate and fast performance. In this regard, this paper suggests a novel robust control strategy based on FOIT2FC for this distribution power system to enhance the tracking accuracy and smooth the DC voltage of converter’s DC-link with presence of system uncertainties and disturbances. To strengthen the proposed control strategy, MOMSA has been utilized to optimally tune the FOIT2FC’s parameters. Precise and robust tracking performance of the proposed MOMSA-based FOIT2FC has been thoroughly compared with PSO-based FOIT2FC, PSO-based IT2FC and PSO-based Fuzzy controllers under DC reference variation, resistive load variation, unbalanced three-phase voltage and reproductive operation. The simulation results show that the proposed MOMSA-based FOIT2FC almost gives 1.53% overshoot, 1.25% undershoot and 0.023% fluctuation, while PSO-based FOIT2FC gives 1.95% overshoot, 1.89% undershoot and 0.14% fluctuation, PSO-based IT2FC gives 2.46 % overshoot, 2.38% undershoot and 0.19% fluctuation and PSO-based Fuzzy controller gives 2.74% overshoot, 2.95% undershoot and 0.22% fluctuation. To more certify the simulation model, its prototype structure has been provided and tested in laboratory.

Excess mortality and associated community risk factors related to hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico
Authors: Cowan Kristen N , Zavala Diego E , Suarez Erick , Lopez-Rodriguez José A , Alvarez Omar 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Background: In the 6 months following Hurricane Maria the number of people who died from the hurricane was much higher than was initially estimated from death certificates. Disruption of health care services and displacement led to the exacerbation of pre-existing chronic diseases. The objectives of this study were to (1) estimate the excess deaths in Puerto Rico in the 6 months following Maria, (2) identify geographical areas experiencing higher risk of chronic disease mortality following Maria and (3) identify community-level vulnerability characteristics associated with some communities being at higher risk of increased chronic disease mortality after Maria. Methods: Death records were obtained from Puerto Rico’s Department of Health Demographic Registry. Mortality risks per 100 000 were calculated for chronic disease categories and all-cause mortality for the 6 months following Maria and the same months in the year before. Geospatial analysis using Getis–Ord Gi* Statistic was used to determine if mortality clusters of 6 month mortality risk following hurricane Maria by census tract were statistically significant. Multinomial logistic regression was used to model the association between census tract level social vulnerability and being classified as higher or sustained risk of mortality in the 6 months following Hurricane Maria compared to the previous year’s mortality risk. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were estimated to measure associations between social vulnerability and mortality risk. Results: In the 6 months following Maria there were increases in mortality risk for cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, sepsis, chronic respiratory disease, hypertension and all-cause mortality. Examining community level characteristics associated with vulnerability to disasters, neighborhoods with higher proportion of people 65 and older, higher proportion of houses being multiunit structures and higher proportion of households with no vehicle, in comparison to other neighborhoods in Puerto Rico,were more likely to have sustained high risk for mortality before and after Maria or increased risk of being a hot spot for chronic disease mortality after Maria.
Nonintervention, Nonrecognition, and the Articulation of a Mexican Doctrine of International Law
Authors: Fernandes Carvalho Fabia 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This chapter explores the particularities of the post-revolutionary Mexican engagement with international law based on the international legal theses of two Mexican diplomats from the interwar period: Isidro Fabela on nonintervention and Genaro Estrada on nonrecognition. They played an essential role in articulating and disseminating international legal interpretations that eventually crystallized a legalistic Mexican engagement with the vocabulary of international law. Assessing the emergence of the Mexican doctrine of international law in the interwar period can help us understand how a distinctly Latin American political project was coupled with the international legal vocabulary aiming not just to be part of the European community of nations but, more ambitiously, to put forward a form of internationalism that sought to eliminate foreign control of natural resources and economic dependency.
Positivism and Latin American Developments in International Law
Authors: Fuentes Ximena 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Positivism is often described as Latin American law’s defining feature. In contrast to natural law theory, positivism considers that legal norms are the result of decisions made by those who have the power and authority to create law. Ximena Fuentes shows how, as international law itself moved toward a positivist self-definition in the nineteenth century, Latin Americans seized the new theory to shield themselves from European claims rooted in natural law. Against the doctrine of discovery, which might have allowed Europeans and North Americans to claim unoccupied lands, they posited the principle of uti posseditis; against claims of the sovereign right to protect nationals in foreign jurisdictions, they posited the principle of nonintervention. Thus, positivism became the polestar of international law theory and practice in the region.
The Latin American States and the Peaceful Settlement of Disputes before the International Court of Justice
Authors: Valencia-Ospina Eduardo , Vega-Barbosa Giovanny 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This chapter describes the practice of Latin American states before the International Court of Justice (ICJ). The assessment of the practice of Latin American states before the World Court takes place in three successive periods. The first period is characterized by timid yet important expressions of trust in the jurisdiction of the ICJ and is followed by a quarter of a century of absentia. The authors suggest that this second period can be explained by a mixture of unique factors, including the Cold War, the specific nature of the processes and events taking place in Latin America at that time, and the historical preference of Latin American states to settle highly sensitive matters within the region through arbitration. The final period is characterized by confidence in the Court as an effective instance for the peaceful settlement of the most important international legal disputes.
Latin America and the Codification of the Law of State Responsibility
Authors: Bordin Fernando Lusa , Paddeu Federica 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
In recent years, Latin American states have drawn on their historical experience to advocate for an orderly and restrictive regime of countermeasures, to curb unilateral action and interventionism. These states have also remained committed to asserting their juridical equality and actively shaping international law through codification. They favor the adoption of a convention on state responsibility. Both projects invoke two key postulates of the traditional “American international law”: juridical equality of states and nonintervention. In this chapter, Bordin and Paddeu show how Latin American states are pushing this project in the hope that the international community will come together in an earnest multilateral endeavor to create greater legal certainty.
Epilogue
Authors: Chehtman Alejandro , Huneeus Alexandra , Puig Sergio 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The epilogue closes with a brief, bold claim born of reflection on the rich chapters in this volume: there is a new canon of Latin American international law (LAIL) in our time. It is characterized by broader participation, greater pluralism in theory and scholarly methodology, emphasis on international human rights as an essential language of domestic law and politics, and, crucially, a turn inward, away from the United States and Europe. In this brief epilogue, Chehtman, Huneeus, and Puig delve into the two main regionalist projects of the past and show how the current era is different. They end by discussing the limits and fragility of the current LAIL project and a call for further study of the shifting LAIL landscape.
“Now is the time. Come, come!”
Authors: Kedhar Anusha 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This chapter examines brahmin women’s performances of erotic humor in Bharatanatyam love songs (padams and javalis). Through various corporeal humor tactics, such as juxtaposition, sarcasm, sexual innuendo, and mockery, padams and javalis offer dancers a platform to temporarily occupy the space of the erotic and experiment with erotic embodiments that may be unavailable to them in their everyday lives without risking their sexual and caste “purity.” However, they derive pleasure and freedom—and audience laughs—by performing a kind of sexual deviance associated with courtesans or courtesan-like women. Thus, while dancers use erotic humor to transgress gendered expectations regarding idealized Indian womanhood, they do so at the risk of reinscribing caste distinctions regarding “respectable” gender performance. Drawing on Arabella Stanger’s notion of “critical negativity,” author Anusha Kedhar argues that padams and javalis can “model freeing experiences for dancers and audiences” while still masking dispossession and brahminical patriarchy. This is the darker side of erotic humor: even as dancers use humor to transgress gender norms and restrictions, they do so by reinscribing brahminical notions of appropriate female sexuality and idealized womanhood. Taking both caste and gender into consideration enables us to see the possibilities as well as the limits of erotic humor as a vehicle for female empowerment.
Insolent Tangos
Authors: Savigliano Marta E 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
In this paper Marta E. Savigliano follows Blanchot (1943) in his explorations of insolence, Bergson (1911 [1900]) in his groundbreaking observations on the comic, Guattari (1996) in his reflections on soft subversions, and, as a self-described “fickle milonguita” (woman tango-dancer), various other authors in search of the transcultural limits of humorous choreographic tangos. The author’s guiding questions include: What makes tango dancing funny, how, and to whom? How are insolent tangos’ contestatory moves composed? Tangos’ tragic solemnity and piquant sobriety have often attracted the interest of physical humorists. This chapter focuses on tango humor in the hands of professional tango dancers who, unlike comedians, make a funny spectacle of what they know best and, in doing so, use their expertise to question spectators’ othering prejudices.
Chaplin’s Border Moves and My Own
Authors: Tapia Minerva 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This chapter examines the use of physical humor in contemporary dance choreographies of the San Diego–Tijuana region. Among other border dances selected for analysis, a central example choreographed by the author and performed by her dance company revives the comic embodiments of Charlie Chaplin in the final scene of The Pilgrim (1923). As Chaplin’s pilgrim straddles both sides of the border in a stiff-legged waddle, he ponders whether to try his luck in the United States after escaping prison or face a worse fate in the dangerous unknown of Mexico. Following Chaplin’s lead with a twist, the author-choreographer and her ensemble reconstruct a comic homage, taking the piece from Tijuana to “al otro lado.” What they find are the important affectations of audiences on both sides of the border for whom the layers of humor (slapstick, irony, and comic relief) land quite differently in localized contexts and points of reference.
A Holist Balance Scale
Authors: Tucker Chris 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Scale-based models of weighing reasons face challenges concerning the context sensitivity of weight, the aggregation of weight, and the methodology for learning what the weights of reasons are. This chapter resolves these challenges. The first challenge is resolved by explaining how scale-based models can accept holism, the idea that weight is context sensitive. The second challenge is resolved by relying on holism to explain features of aggregation that are thought to be incompatible with the view that reasons always aggregate by addition. The third challenge is resolved by reverse engineering, which allows us to infer the weights of reasons (among other things) from the deontic status of the action in the case at issue.
Moral Options and the Normative Significance of Small Improvements
Authors: Tucker Chris 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Weight Pluralism is the idea that reasons have at least two weight values that are not always equivalent. This chapter relies on a version of Weight Pluralism to resolve the justification intransitivity paradox and normative significance of small improvements, as well as explain other related phenomena. Weight Pluralism explains, therefore, the intuitive moral options that Parity Monism can explain and more besides. In addition, Weight Pluralism explains how quantitative differences can make a deontic difference, as well as generate the sort of predictions needed to make the theory testable. If you have to choose only one complication—the existence of parity or the existence of more than one weight value—you should choose the latter.
Demonstrating Scientific Knowledge in Geometry and Civil Philosophy
Authors: Adams Marcus P 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Chapter 4 argues that the demonstrations that Hobbes provides in the sciences of geometry and civil philosophy are instances of maker’s knowledge wherein teachers impart actual causal knowledge to students by showing them how to make something. In such a demonstration, teachers move beyond private marks and show others how to make using signs. The motivation for connecting these two sciences is straightforward on Hobbesian grounds since Hobbes explicitly identifies them both as instances of scientific knowledge; indeed, they are the only instances of Hobbesian such knowledge in the strictest sense because knowledge of actual causes is possible. The chapter shows that demonstrations in these two sciences are founded in a thought experiment in which, by undergoing the experiment, one gains the principles of that science by means of definitions by explication of simple conceptions. Those definitions by explication are used as the component parts—the “causes”—of constructions in civil philosophy and geometry. In the same way that Hobbes says that the geometer “put[s] together” the parts of a “square” to learn its cause, the chapter contends that the Laws of Nature, considered jointly, are the cause of PEACE. The chapter next shows benefits of this understanding of the Laws of Nature over competing interpretations and outlines how this interpretation impacts our understanding of the relationship of the first two parts of Leviathan by suggesting that Leviathan Part II plays the role of corollaries in geometry.
