Optimism and friendship quality as mediators between trait emotional intelligence and life satisfaction in Chinese adolescents: A two-wave longitudinal study
Authors: Wang Xiaobo , Lu Xiong , Hu Tao , Xue Shuang , Xu Wenjian , Tang Wanjie 
Published: November 2022

AbstractUsing a convenience sample of adolescents (N = 1609; 63.5% female; Mage = 16.54), this study explored whether EI predicted adolescent life satisfaction and whether friendship quality and optimism mediated this relationship during the COVID-19 pandemic. The structural equation modeling revealed that EI predicted adolescent life satisfaction, friendship quality, and optimism, friendship quality partially mediated the relationship between EI and life satisfaction, and optimism partially mediated the relationship between EI and friendship quality. These findings prove that psychological or educative approaches focused on EI could increase life satisfaction in adolescents during difficult times such as COVID-19, but EI may be linked with life satisfaction via friendship quality only. Training in optimism approaches and friendship quality enhancement programs could also effectively promote life satisfaction.

Published: November 2022

AbstractCoating of Mg alloys with Mg-phosphate is usually performed by complex and costly methods. This work was mainly aimed at using Mg-phosphate ceramic for Mg metal implants by simple and cost-effective spin coating combined with a sol–gel approach. Where, Mg-phosphate ceramic particles were dispersed with different percentages (0, 10, and 30 wt. %) in the glass sol (85 SiO2 – 10 CaO – 5 P2O5 system) as a coating solution. The coated substrates were characterized by TGA, XRD, FTIR, contact angle, and SEM/EDX analyses, and the in vitro bioactivity test was performed in revised simulated body fluid (rSBF). The results showed the coating thickness was 8.8 ± 0.8, 5.4 ± 0.6, and 5 ± 0.7 μm for MP0, MP10, and MP30, respectively. Moreover, the coatings increased the hydrophilicity of the metal surface. All coatings enhanced the formation of an apatite-bone like layer on the Mg metal surface, and they were viable with oral epithelial cells at a concentration ≤ 125 μg/ml. Moreover, MP0 and MP10 coatings significantly enhanced the corrosion resistance of the metal, while; MP30 coating did not show a significant effect on it. Thus, the percentage of Mg-phosphate in the coating was valuable for corrosion resistance when it was ≤ 10 wt. %. As a result, the composite coatings showed promising coatings for Mg metal substrate to enhance its corrosion resistance at low percentages of Mg-phosphate ceramic.
RETRACTED ARTICLE: Intelligent power management based on multi-objective cost function for plug-in biogas hybrid vehicles under uncertain driving conditions
Authors: Abd-Elhaleem Sameh , Shoeib Walaa , Sobaih Abdel Azim 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis paper presents a new intelligent power management strategy based on multi-objective cost function for plug-in biogas hybrid vehicles (PBHVs). This strategy consists of long-term power management and a short-term controller. The long-term power management depends on an improved generalized particle swarm optimization algorithm (IGPSO) to obtain the globally optimal values of motor and biogas engine torques. To reduce the computation time, five-mode rule-based control is used, where the IGPSO estimates the optimal values for the motor and engine torques in a hybrid mode depending on a multi-objective cost function. This cost function aims to reduce fuel consumption and the drawn current from the battery and takes into consideration the battery ageing. The short-term controller is designed using an interval type-2 Takagi–Sugeno-Kang (IT2TSK) fuzzy algorithm, which depends on human experts to overcome the uncertainties of the driving conditions. Lyapunov stability theory for the online controller is proved. The proposed technique improves the energy consumption compared to other techniques. The simulation results using real data for the engine, motor and battery illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach with comparative results.

AbstractUsing Mujica’s linearization theorem, we extend to the holomorphic setting some classical characterizations of compact (weakly compact, Rosenthal, Asplund) linear operators between Banach spaces such as the Schauder, Gantmacher and Gantmacher–Nakamura theorems and the Davis–Figiel–Johnson–Pełczynski, Rosenthal and Asplund factorization theorems.
A semantic blocks model for human activity prediction in smart environments using time-windowed contextual data
Authors: Dunne Rob , Morris Tim , Harper Simon 
Published: November 2022

AbstractComplex human activity prediction is a difficult problem for computer science. Simple behaviours can be mapped to sequence prediction algorithms with good results; however, real-world examples of activity are generally stochastic and much more computationally difficult to infer. One method for solving this problem is to utilise contextual data—clues surrounding the actual activity—to decipher what is about to happen next; in much the same way humans do. In this paper, we present the semantic blocks model (SBM), a method for using contextual data to infer the next activity in a smart home environment by augmenting the inference with contextual data, but also segmenting it into time-windowed sections of activity—or semantic blocks. Our proof-of-concept produces 74.55% accuracy on the CASAS smart home dataset, an increase on the comparable CRAFFT algorithm which produces 66.91% on the same dataset. We detail how our experimental prototype works using intersecting contextual data, and explore opportunities for further work by the research community.

Published: November 2022

AbstractAcquired hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare autoimmune disease caused by autoantibodies against coagulation factor VIII and characterized by spontaneous hemorrhage in patients with no previous family or personal history of bleeding. We report here a case of AHA that occurred in the Department of Medicina D’Urgenza in Sant’Andrea Hospital in a patient with previous diagnosis of NSLC. The aim of this article is to allow a more comprehensive knowledge of AHA that both for the rarity and the poor literature is underdiagnosed; for all these reasons, it is important that different specialists, like emergency specialists, experts in internal medicine, hematologists, and oncologists, acquire a more complete knowledge of the clinical and laboratory features of this disease, allowing an early diagnosis crucial for the evolution of the coagulopathy.
A time-periodic reaction-diffusion population model of a species subjected to harvesting on the boundary of a protected habitat
Authors: Searle K. D. , van Vuuren J. H. 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe objective in this paper is to determine analytically a maximally sustainable pro-rata density-dependent harvest rate of a hypothetical biological species on the spatial boundary of a protected habitat (i.e. no harvesting of the species is allowed in the interior of the spatial domain). This is achieved by analysing an initial-boundary value model involving a reaction-diffusion equation in which the reaction term is a concave function of the population density, depends periodically on time, and varies spatially. The model is equipped with Robin boundary conditions modelling a continuum of potential pro-rata density-dependent harvest rates on the spatial boundary. A set of necessary and sufficient criteria for the existence of a unique positive periodic attractor of solutions to the model is established by employing the theory of comparison principles and monotone iteration schemes. Thereafter, a long-time asymptotic analysis of the population density is undertaken by invoking classical results from the theory of eigenproblems. In this way, the aforementioned necessary and sufficient conditions are rendered more practical in terms of an upper bound on the maximal allowable pro-rata density-dependent harvest rate. Moreover, important properties of the time-periodic attractor of solutions are established to guarantee the existence of a density pro-rata harvest rate which maximises the total harvest per unit time at equilibrium.

AbstractYoussef introduced two-temperature thermoelasticity without energy dissipation theorem. This theorem depends upon two distinct temperatures: the conductive temperature and the thermo-dynamical temperature. Through this work, the variational principle theorem will be obtained for an isotropic, homogeneous, and thermoelastic body in the context of two-temperature thermoelasticity without energy dissipation theorem.
Impact of the place on human health during pandemic and methods to enhance
Authors: Mowafy Mohamed Abdelbary Wafa 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe spread of COVID-19 worldwide pushed many governments to impose curfews on citizens, that lead a major number of people to stay longer times at certain places in their homes. This is descriptive research, as this paper demonstrates the possibility of impact of the place on its occupant’s health, also it reviews the literature to present a framework to deal with that case in the future, whether there is a need for a new building or for just some modifications in existing ones. The research results showed that there is a certain impact of the place on the human physical and mental health, which results from one or both, the natural earth electromagnetic field and the shape design and proportions. In conclusion there are many methods and theories to deal with the energies of the place that have a negative impact on humans, one of them is to apply a regulatory energy that eliminates the negative impact of the existing energies, whether natural or artificial.

AbstractBackgroundChildhood maltreatment can result in lifelong psychological and physical sequelae, including coronary artery disease (CAD). Mechanisms leading to increased risk of illness may involve emotional dysregulation and shortened leukocyte telomere length (LTL).MethodsTo evaluate whether (1) childhood maltreatment is associated with shorter LTL among older adults with CAD or other chronic illnesses; (2) sex and/or CAD status influence these results; and (3) symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress moderate or mediate the association between childhood maltreatment and LTL, men and women (N = 1247; aged 65 ± 7.2 years) with and without CAD completed validated questionnaires on childhood maltreatment, symptoms of depression, anxiety, and perceived stress. LTL was measured using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Analyses included bivariate correlations, hierarchical regressions, and moderation/mediation analyses, controlling for sociodemographic and lifestyle variables.ResultsChildhood maltreatment was associated with significantly shorter LTL (r = −0.059, p = 0.038, b = −0.016, p = 0.005). This relation was not moderated by depression, anxiety, nor perceived stress, though there was mitigated evidence for absence of a maltreatment-LTL relation in men with CAD. Stress perception (but not anxiety or depression) partially mediated the relation between childhood maltreatment and LTL [Indirect effect, b = −0.0041, s.e. = 0.002, 95% CI (−0.0085 to −0.0002)].ConclusionsChildhood maltreatment was associated with accelerated biological aging independently of patient characteristics. Emotional dysregulation resulting in chronic stress may contribute to this process. Whether stress management or other interventions may help prevent or slow premature aging in those who have suffered maltreatment requires study.
Mobile Health in China: Well Integrated or a New Divide?
Authors: Sun Lujia , Buijsen Martin 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe application of mobile health holds promises of achieving greater accessibility in the evolving health care sector. The active engagement of private actors drives its growth, while the challenges that exist between health care privatization and equitable access are a concern. This article selects the private internet hospital in China as a case study. It indicates that a market-oriented regulatory mechanism of private mobile health will contribute little to improving health equity from the perspectives of egalitarians and libertarians. By integrating the capability approach and the right to health, it is claimed that mobile health is a means of accessing health care for everyone, where substantive accessibility should be emphasized. With this view, this article provides policy recommendations that reinforce private sector engagement for mobile health, recognizing liberty, equity, and collective responsibility in the Chinese context.
Gender stereotypes in print and online media coverage of Slovak presidential candidates in 2009 and 2019
Authors: Žuffová Mária 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIn Slovakia, women are poorly represented in politics and public life. Yet it is the first country in Central Europe with a female president. By applying a mixed-methods approach to analyzing an original dataset containing media coverage of leading presidential candidates (n = 1492), this study explores how the media covered them and discusses under what conditions gender-stereotypical coverage could be detrimental or beneficial to electoral outcomes. The results show media outlet type was not significantly associated with a gender-stereotypical attribution of communal and agentic traits to candidates. Tabloids and quality press equally perpetuated gender stereotypes. Irrespective of their gender, journalists were more likely to depict women candidates as possessing communal qualities perceived as incompatible with leadership. However, findings from the qualitative analysis suggest that when corruption perception is high, and public trust in institutions is low, communal traits stereotypically attributed to women are appreciated. Novelty also works to women’s advantage. These findings have important implications for women candidates’ campaign strategies.
Detectable Increase in Global Land Areas Susceptible to Precipitation Reversals Under the RCP8.5 Scenario
Authors: Cheng Linyin , Liu Zhiyong 
Published: November 2022

AbstractOf rising concern is the consecutive occurrence of contrasting precipitation extremes such as droughts followed by severe floods, which tips a precarious balance with lasting impacts on human and natural systems. However, it is not clear how the risk of such precipitation reversals may change over time at the global scale. Using precipitation data from the Community Earth System Model Version 1 (CESM1) Large Ensemble Simulations (LENS), we examined changes in the likelihood and spatial distribution of low‐intensity dry‐to‐wet fluctuations and more severe shifts from meteorological droughts to pluvials over global land areas via a conditional statistical framework. Our analysis of CESM1‐LENS leads to the conclusion that the worst‐case climate change scenario, that is, RCP8.5 can increase the percent of global land areas susceptible to both low‐intensity and more severe precipitation reversals by the end of the twenty‐first century, while inducing disproportionate impacts at regional scales depending on the severity of precipitation reversals. Particularly, we find 13.6% of global land areas may be depressed by interannual dry‐to‐wet events with a transition probability of greater than 0.5 in the twenty‐first century, quintupling the figure in the past century. The increase in the susceptible global land areas further indicates that new local hotspots with low‐frequency drought‐pluvial seesaws are more likely to emerge under the effects of enhancing anthropogenic greenhouse gases. Collectively, the study is expected to provide useful information for policy makers and infrastructure operators to prioritize actions that affect water resource objectives of flood control, drought mitigation, and water quality protection.

AbstractTyphoon Faxai hit Japan in 2019 and severely damaged the Tokyo metropolitan area. To mitigate such damages, a good track forecast is necessary even before the typhoon formation. To investigate the predictability of the genesis and movement of a precursor vortex and its relationship with the synoptic‐scale flow, 100‐member ensemble simulations of Typhoon Faxai were performed using a 14‐km mesh global nonhydrostatic atmospheric model, which started from 16 different initial days (i.e., 1,600 members in total). The results show that the model could predict an enhanced risk of a Faxai‐like vortex heading toward Japan 2 weeks before landfall, which was up to 70%. The reason for the enhancement was a rapid increase in the members reproducing a precursor vortex from 15 to 12 days before landfall in Japan. In addition, the upper‐tropospheric vortex played an essential role in the track simulation of Faxai.
Simulated Cycles of East Asian Temperature and Precipitation Over the Past 425 ka

Published: November 2022

AbstractRecords from a wide range of geological archives covering the last few glacial‐interglacial cycles show large inconsistencies in the East Asian summer monsoon variability, which severely hampers our understanding of the evolution and potential mechanisms of the regional East Asian climate on orbital timescales. Here, we examine the simulated temperature and precipitation in East Asia based on a series of equilibrium simulations conducted for the past 425 ka, and we investigate the sensitivity of temperature and precipitation to potential forcings. Our simulations show that, in East Asia, the seasonal mean temperature is dominated by a ∼20‐kyr cycle, and the annual mean temperature (AMT) is dominated by a ∼100‐kyr cycle, which is consistent with previous modeling efforts and geological reconstructions. Additional sensitivity experiments indicate that the greenhouse gas concentration, in combination with the ice volume, is the dominant force for the variations of AMT in East Asia on orbital timescales. For the precipitation in East Asia, our equilibrium simulations and additional sensitivity experiments, together with comprehensive model‐data intercomparison analysis, suggest that the cycles of simulated annual mean precipitation over East Asia are highly model‐dependent, although the dominant ∼20‐kyr cycle in summer precipitation appears to be a robust feature. Overall, the results highlight the large model uncertainty with regard to the relative roles of forcings in hydroclimate variations in East Asia on orbital time scales. There is, therefore, an urgent need to implement more realistic precipitation schemes in models in order to decrease the model spread in simulated precipitation.
Lithology, Pore‐Filling Media, and Pore Closure Depth Beneath InSight on Mars Inferred From Shear Wave Velocities

Published: November 2022

AbstractWe quantify the volume and distribution of water, cement, sediments, and fractured rocks within the Martian crust beneath NASA's InSight (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy, and Heat Transport mission) lander by using rock physics models to interpret shear wave velocities (Vs) measured from InSight data. The models assume that Mars' crust comprises sediments and fractured rocks whose pores and fractures host variable combinations of gas, liquid water, and mineral cements. Measured Vs in the upper crust (0–8 km) can be explained by layers of minimally (<2%) cemented sediments and gas‐filled fractured basalts. Measured Vs in the deeper crust (8–20 km) can be explained by fractured basalts or more felsic igneous rocks (modeled here as 100% plagioclase feldspar) that is unfractured or has up to 23% porosity. Open pores in the deeper crust could host gas, liquid water, and up to 2% cement. Modeled Vs are too low for a seismically detectable ice‐saturated cryosphere in the upper crust and temperatures are too high to freeze liquid water in the deeper crust. Notably, with Vs alone, we are unable to distinguish between liquid water and gas within the pores.
An Optimized Solution to Long‐Distance Flight Routes Under Extreme Cosmic Radiation
Authors: Xue Dabin , Yang Jian , Liu Zhizhao , Wang Bing 
Published: November 2022

AbstractDuring extraordinary space weather, cosmic radiation can be significant enough to pose a threat to aircrew health. Traditional methods of reducing massive cosmic radiation exposure include flight cancellation, lowering flying altitudes, and flight rerouting. However, flight cancellation can result in additional financial expenditures, while lowering flight altitudes and rerouting can consequently cause more fuel consumption or even violation of airspace rights. As a result, we use a multi‐objective optimization model to assign optimal flight altitude and speed to reduce the overall weighted sum of cosmic radiation and fuel consumption. The simulation scenario is based on a space weather event with dramatically increased cosmic radiation that occurs during a routine international flight from Tokyo to London. Our results show that the proposed model can reduce fuel consumption while satisfying cosmic radiation limits recommended by the Council of the European Union if the forecasts of cosmic radiation are sufficiently accurate. In addition, a Pareto frontier is provided as a tactical air traffic management guideline. Our study provides insight into future policymaking for air transportation during harsh space weather conditions.
