For a new Sociology of Social love
Authors: Montagna Nicola 
Published: March 2023

AbstractLove is a theme at the centre of all our lives, including those of sociologists and social scientists. It has been widely addressed and described in literature and poetry, extensively depicted in the pictorial arts, sung about in music. Even philosophy, from its very beginnings, has devoted beautiful and intense pages to this theme. For reasons difficult to understand, the founding fathers of our discipline have been reluctant to enter the analytical realm of love. They touched this theme, but only marginally. It is only relatively recently that more insightful and focused discussions have come from some key figures of contemporary sociology in works by Niklas Luhmann, Anthony Giddens, Ulrich Beck and Elisabeth Beck-Gernsheim, Zygmunt Bauman and, more recently, Eva Illouz that demonstrate the profoundly social nature of our most intimate feelings and convey how the transformation of love and intimacy is related to wider social changes. In this sense, this collection edited by Silvia Cataldi and Gennaro Iorio aims to fill a major gap, while fuelling the debate on social love and its implications as a transformative force in an era characterised by multiple crises. By bringing together scholars from across several countries, not only it collates the fruit of years of research, but it also launches new developments in the debate on social love and set a new research agenda.
The Use of Wooden Clubs and Throwing Sticks among Recent Foragers
Authors: Hrnčíř Václav 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThere is a popular idea that archaic humans commonly used wooden clubs as their weapons. This is not based on archaeological finds, which are minimal from the Pleistocene, but rather on a few ethnographic analogies and the association of these weapons with simple technology. This article presents the first quantitative cross-cultural analysis of the use of wooden clubs and throwing sticks for hunting and violence among foragers. Using a sample of 57 recent hunting-gathering societies from the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample, it is shown that the majority used clubs for violence (86%) and/or hunting (74%). Whereas in hunting and fishing the club usually served only as a secondary tool, 33% of societies used the club as one of their main fighting weapons. The use of throwing sticks was less frequent among the societies surveyed (12% for violence, 14% for hunting). Based on these results and other evidence, it is argued that the use of clubs by early humans was highly probable, at least in the simplest form of a crude stick. The great variation in the forms and use of clubs and throwing sticks among recent hunter-gatherers, however, indicates that they are not standardized weapons and that similar variation may have existed in the past. Many such prehistoric weapons may therefore have been quite sophisticated, multifunctional, and carried strong symbolic meaning.

Published: March 2023

AbstractThe dyeing of recycled polyamide nonwoven fabrics based on nanofibers (PA-NWNF), which were fabricated from polyamide wastes, was conducted in this study. Since PA-NWNF exhibited a high surface area to volume ratio, it was dyed with different particle sizes of Disperse Red 167 dye (DR 167, DR 167-B, and DR 167-C) without auxiliary agents to prevent further environmental pollution. The undyed and dyed PA-NWNF, as well as the applied dyes, were characterized by SEM, BET, XRD, and FT-IR techniques. Both color yield (K/S) and fastness of dyed PA-NWNF were also evaluated. The morphology of dyed DR 167-C owned homogeneity and smooth nanofibers. In addition, DR 167-C dye (the smallest particle size) provided numerous advantages, including high particle dispersion, low dyeing temperature, minimum processing time, and greater color yield. At a concentration of 15%, DR 167-C produced 55.1 and 33.18% color yields which were higher than DR 167 and DR 167-B, respectively. Also, DR 167-C achieved a better colorfastness to washing (very good, 4) compared to other studied dyes.
State Variation Regarding Other Health Impairment Eligibility Criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Published: March 2023

AbstractThe special education eligibility category that has come to be most commonly associated with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in recent years is Other Health Impairment (OHI). However, the eligibility criteria for the OHI disability category have been criticized for being especially vague, given that the disability category incorporates a wide range of health impairments without providing any additional specificity. Because states have the latitude to utilize more specific eligibility criteria than what is provided at the federal level, the purpose of the current study was to review state-level special education eligibility criteria for OHI, with particular interest in identifying the degree to which eligibility guidance exists specific to students with ADHD and the extent to which this guidance varies across states. Results suggested that wide state variation exists regarding eligibility guidance, with 22% of states utilizing the federal definition and only 14% of states providing elaboration regarding all three components of the federal definition. Whereas it was most common for states to provide additional guidance surrounding what is needed to establish that a student has a health impairment, less than half of states provided specific guidance surrounding the other two components of the federal definition. Implications for policy and practice are discussed.
Evaluation of the survival of homofermentative Lacticaseibacillus casei subsp. casei in fermented milk matrix enriched with non-digestible natural fibers

Published: March 2023

AbstractThe physicochemical changes induced by seven different dietary fibers (oat, bamboo, pea, inulin, apple, potato, and wheat) during storage and their effects on the survival of homofermentative Lacticaseibacillus casei subsp. casei (L. casei) in fermented milk matrix were analyzed. For this, an experimental study of the effect of storage time on the microorganisms count and physicochemical properties (pH, titratable acidity, syneresis and viscosity) of milk fermented with L. casei was carried out every two weeks during a storage period of 42 days. Throughout the period studied at 4 °C, no significant differences were found in terms of viscosity values, syneresis rates and L. casei counts, despite the substantial decrease in the pH values. Notably, the substantial increase in the concentration of free hydronium ions (active acidity) in the fiber-enriched matrices during the follow-up period was positively correlated with the L.casei survival. The microbial count determined in all samples was higher than 1 × 107 CFU/g, the minimum value recommended by world organizations for nutraceutical fermented foods. Consequently, the studied prebiotic fibers could be considered in the production of new fermented dairy products with functional properties.

Departing Employees, Confidentiality Clauses and European Trade Secret Protection
Authors: Irgens-Jensen Harald 
Published: March 2023

AbstractDeparting employees are a classic problem in trade secret law. Employees who wish to set up on their own or accept a job offer from their principal’s competitor may often be tempted to take with them valuable and secret information from the existing principal’s business. The law should protect employers against this. On the other hand, employees have a legitimate interest in being able to change jobs, and trade secret law should not be so protective as to severely hamper labour mobility. According to leading scholars, Directive 2016/943 on the protection of trade secrets does not harmonise the legal protection of trade secrets vis-à-vis departing employees. This leaves room for national legislators and courts to develop the law on this important topic on their own. One might fear that this could lead to substantial legal differences within the European Economic Area. This article explores this question with a particular focus on many employers’ practice of including obligations of confidentiality in their employment contracts or entering into separate non-disclosure agreements with their employees. The author shares the view that the Directive, along with much of the national legislation that implements it, gives courts considerable freedom in how to solve the difficult cases of departing employees, including when the ex-employee is bound by post-employment confidentiality obligations. This is not, however, necessarily a threat to legal certainty, as national case-law prior to the Directive seems to have had many common traits. This could provide important guidelines as to how the relevant parties’ interests have to be safeguarded and balanced also under the Directive. The author has two main points on the substantive law: (1) an agreement that generally prohibits employees from disclosing or using “trade secrets”, “business information” or the like may be important – but not necessarily decisive – for establishing that the employer has taken “reasonable steps” to protect the information, as required by the Directive; (2) however, the concrete assessment of whether a former employee has violated such a contract should not differ much from an assessment of whether they would have violated trade secret law in the absence of such an agreement.
Comparative modelling results between a separable and a non-separable form of principal stretches–based strain energy functions for a variety of isotropic incompressible soft solids: Ogden model compared with a parent model
Authors: Anssari-Benam Afshin 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThis paper presents a comparative analysis on the application of two models from the family of principal stretches–based strain energy functions to a wide range of incompressible rubber-like materials, including hydrogels, foams, silicone elastomers, filled rubbers and biomaterials. The two models of concern here are the seminal Ogden model of the separable form, and a more general non-separable form parent model proposed by the author. To this end, the three-term Ogden model, with corresponding six model parameters, and the one-term parent model with four model parameters, are applied to exemplar extant deformation datasets of the aforementioned rubber-like materials, and the ensuing modelling results are then compared. This comparison encompasses the quality of the obtained fits as measured by the resulting relative errors, and the mechanistic validity of the ensuing strain energy function as assessed by the convexity of the iso-energy plots in the principal stretches $$\left({\lambda }_{1},{\lambda }_{2}\right)$$

plane. The studied modes of deformation involve a wide range of deformation types including uniaxial, biaxial, simple shear and inflation. It is shown that for the considered range of materials and deformations, the optimal fits obtained by the Ogden model either (i) possess higher relative errors; or (ii) offer a marginal improvement but with the loss of convexity. This loss of convexity is further exemplified on considering an additional soft tissue dataset. Finally, an important implication of the separable versus non-separable functional forms of the two models in application to the deformation of elastomers will be demonstrated, where a separable function proves to be an inappropriate choice. In all these applications, the proposed parent model, by contrast, will be shown to provide equally good or better fits, with fewer model parameters, while remaining free of the foregoing undesirable modelling outcomes.
A Review of the Application of Multi-modal Deep Learning in Medicine: Bibliometrics and Future Directions

Published: March 2023

AbstractIn recent years, deep learning has been applied in the field of clinical medicine to process large-scale medical images, for large-scale data screening, and in the diagnosis and efficacy evaluation of various major diseases. Multi-modal medical data fusion based on deep learning can effectively extract and integrate characteristic information of different modes, improve clinical applicability in diagnosis and medical evaluation, and provide quantitative analysis, real-time monitoring, and treatment planning. This study investigates the performance of existing multi-modal fusion pre-training algorithms and medical multi-modal fusion methods and compares their key characteristics, such as supported medical data, diseases, target samples, and implementation performance. Additionally, we present the main challenges and goals of the latest trends in multi-modal medical convergence. To provide a clearer perspective on new trends, we also analyzed relevant papers on the Web of Science. We obtain some meaningful results based on the annual development trends, country, institution, and journal-level research, highly cited papers, and research directions. Finally, we perform co-authorship analysis, co-citation analysis, co-occurrence analysis, and bibliographic coupling analysis using the VOSviewer software.
Norm nudging and twisting preferences
Authors: Bicchieri Cristina 
Published: March 2023

AbstractPublic policies often involve “norm nudging”, the use of norm information to steer individual behavior in a prosocial direction. Analysis of social norm messaging often concentrates on the outcome measure: the potential change in behavior. The cognitive and psychological processes that underlie individuals’ response to norm information, especially the inferences they draw, are usually overlooked. This knowledge gap may lead to adverse consequences, such as messages backfiring. To (factually) justify norm nudging interventions, it is essential that policymakers understand the complex mechanisms that link context, social expectations and preferences, and how the interpretation of different types of messages affects behavior.
On the L1 acquisition of recursive no in Japanese
Authors: Pérez-Leroux Ana T. , Roberge Yves , Hirayama Manami , Hayashi Midori , Bamba Kazuya 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThis article investigates the emergence of recursive DPs in child language. In certain languages, DP modification can be achieved via diverse structures and any number of different embedding markers (prepositions, particles, case-marker, etc.), each having to be learned; this diversity may impact the L1 development of recursive DP modification. Japanese, in contrast, relies on two uniform unrestricted strategies: the adnominal particle の (no) or a relative clause. We report the results of an elicited production study comparing the production of recursive DPs in Japanese-speaking children and adults. Our results show that Japanese children were much like adults in the types of semantic modificational relations that elicited the most target responses. Children were different from adults in that they were: a) much less successful overall, and b) they preferred no, independently of whether the condition was biased toward no. We review the implications of these findings for analyses of no.
Negative moments of orthogonal polynomials

Published: March 2023

Abstract
If a sequence indexed by nonnegative integers satisfies a linear recurrence without constant terms, one can extend the indices of the sequence to negative integers using the recurrence. Recently, Cigler and Krattenthaler showed that the negative version of the number of bounded Dyck paths is the number of bounded alternating sequences. In this paper, we provide two methods to compute the negative versions of sequences related to moments of orthogonal polynomials. We give a combinatorial model for the negative version of the number of bounded Motzkin paths. We also prove two conjectures of Cigler and Krattenthaler on reciprocity between determinants.
Crevasse density, orientation and temporal variability at Narsap Sermia, Greenland

Published: March 2023

AbstractMass loss from iceberg calving at marine-terminating glaciers is one of the largest and most poorly constrained contributors to sea-level rise. However, our understanding of the processes controlling ice fracturing and crevasse evolution is incomplete. Here, we use Gabor filter banks to automatically map crevasse density and orientation through time on a ~150 km2terminus region of Narsap Sermia, an outlet glacier of the southwest Greenland ice sheet. We find that Narsap Sermia is dominated by transverse (flow-perpendicular) crevasses near the ice front and longitudinal (flow-aligned) crevasses across its central region. Measured crevasse orientation varies on sub-annual timescales by more than 45$^\circ$in response to seasonal velocity changes, and also on multi-annual timescales in response to broader dynamic changes and glacier retreat. Our results show a gradual up-glacier propagation of the zone of flow-transverse crevassing coincident with frontal retreat and acceleration occurring in 2020/21, in addition to sub-annual crevasse changes primarily in transition zones between longitudinal to transverse crevasse orientation. This provides new insight into the dynamics of crevassing at large marine-terminating glaciers and a potential approach for the rapid identification of glacier dynamic change from a single pair of satellite images.
Is Thermodynamics Subjective?
Authors: Robertson Katie , Prunkl Carina 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThermodynamics is an unusual theory. Prominent figures, including J. C. Maxwell and E. T. Jaynes, have suggested that thermodynamics is anthropocentric, and contemporary approaches label thermodynamics a “subjective theory.” Here, we evaluate the arguments for anthropocentrism but conclude that instead of pointing to an anthropocentric view, they point towards a resource-relative understanding of thermodynamics which can be shorn of the “subjective gloss.”
“We are not in Geneva on the Human Rights Council”: Indigenous peoples’ experiences with the World Heritage Convention
Authors: Disko Stefan , Sambo Dorough Dalee 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThis article examines Indigenous peoples’ experiences with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s (UNESCO) World Heritage Convention against the backdrop of their rights as recognized in the 2007 United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) and reviews the efforts of Indigenous peoples and human rights mechanisms to ensure respect for Indigenous peoples’ rights, cultures, and values in World Heritage sites. Although the Convention’s governing bodies have adopted policy and operational guidelines “encouraging” states parties to respect Indigenous peoples’ rights, many nomination, management, and protection processes of World Heritage sites continue to be marked by an exclusion of Indigenous peoples from decision making, a lack of respect for their relationship to the land, and disregard for their traditional livelihoods and cultural heritage. Human rights violations against Indigenous peoples continue to occur unabated in many sites and are in many ways enabled, and sometimes even driven, by decision making under the Convention. This article argues that there is an unacceptable disconnect between this Convention and the UN human rights system, with significant implications for the Convention’s and UNESCO’s credibility, and that a concerted effort should be made to align this UN Convention with the UNDRIP and the human rights purposes of the UN Charter and the UNESCO Constitution.
Laboratory Investigation Into the Effect of the Storage Capacity of a City Block on Unsteady Urban Flood Flows
Authors: Mejía‐Morales Miguel Angel , Mignot Emmanuel , Paquier André , Proust Sébastien 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThe increasing occurrence of urban flooding in recent years demands a more accurate flood hazard assessment. Therefore, a better understanding of the predominant hydraulic processes in urban flood flows is required. The present paper reports an experimental study conducted in a laboratory scale model, which represents an urban area consisting of a rectangular city block and four surrounding streets. The objective is to quantify the impact of open areas within the city block on the key features of floodwaters. Tests are carried out under unsteady flow conditions, by using three inflow hydrographs with different unsteadiness levels. For each inflow hydrograph, the space available for floodwater volume storage within the block (storage capacity, ϕ) is varied, keeping the boundary conditions unchanged. A case where the city block has no space for floodwater storage (i.e., ϕ = 0) is used as a reference case. The results indicate that the unsteadiness level of the inflow hydrograph, especially during the rising stage, has a strong influence on the floodwater volume stored within the city block. The increase in storage capacity within the city block leads to a reduction of the global peak outflow discharge, a decrease in flow depths and a local increase in velocities in some streets and within the city block. Finally, with these variations in floodwater features, the level of risk to pedestrians is also impacted, increasing locally when the storage capacity of the block increases.
Sensitivity Analysis: An Operational Picture
Authors: Dell’Oca A. 
Published: March 2023

AbstractModeling is crucial to understand the behavior of environmental systems. A deeper comprehension of a model can be aided by global sensitivity analysis (GSA). Variability ascribed to model variables could have a stochastic (i.e., lack of knowledge) or an operational (i.e., possible design values) origin. Despite the possible different nature in the variability, current GSA strategies do not distinguish the latter in their formal derivations/developments. We propose to disentangle the variability in the operational and stochastic variables while assessing the model output sensitivity with respect to the former. Two operational sensitivity indices are introduced that serve to characterize the sensitivity of a model output of interest with respect to an operational variable in terms of (a) its average (with respect to the stochastic variables) intensity and (b) its degree of fluctuation (across the set of possible realizations of the stochastic variables), respectively. We exemplify our developments considering two scenarios. Results highlight the relevance of employing an operational GSA when the focus is on the influence of operational variables on model output.
