Pushed to the Edge? Entrepreneurs with Disabilities and the Post-socialist Experience of Ableism
Authors: Csillag Sára , Svastics Carmen , Hidegh Anna Laura , Győri Zsuzsanna 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
In this study, we examine the narratives of Hungarian entrepreneurs with disabilities (EWD) of the post-socialist era, using microhistory. Our research question concerns how ableism appears in the lives of EWD and how the aftermath of socialism emerges in their experience of ableism. We believe that a state-socialist past influences the lives and careers of EWD in a way that is unique in entrepreneurial and disability literature. Drawing on the accounts of 29 Hungarian entrepreneurs, we identified four mechanisms that make post-socialist ableism specific: invisibility; passivity and welfare dependency; the legitimacy of disability organisations; as well as the limitations of economic participation. Our research suggests that these effects, embedded in the current political, social, and economic environment, can only change slowly and over a long time.
Substrate preferences and the effect of temperature on planulae settlement of the scyphozoan Rhopilema nomadica
Authors: Dror Hila , Angel Dror L. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Rhopilema nomadica is the most prominent jellyfish species in the eastern Mediterranean, forming huge annual summer swarms. Although planula settlement success is essential in the formation of jellyfish outbreaks, quantitative studies to examine its response to environmental variables have not been performed thus far due to the difficulty in collecting planulae. We concentrated large numbers of R. nomadica planulae to study the effect of substrate type and seawater temperature on planula settlement. In the substrate preferences experiment, two natural substrates (bivalve shells and kurkar rock) and two artificial substrates (concrete and plastic (PVC)) were offered for planula settlement. Settlement success was not different between concrete, PVC, and kurkar substrates, but was significantly lower on the shells. In the temperature experiment, planulae were able to settle and metamorphose into polyps at all five temperatures (16—32 °C) tested, on glass slides, and most settled within three days. Higher temperatures were not only associated with accelerated settlement but also increased settlement success. The anticipated increase in marine infrastructures (potential settlement substrates), and rising seawater temperatures may favor planula settlement success and further enhance outbreaks of R. nomadica in the Mediterranean.

Abstract
The Coq Community Survey 2022 was an online public survey of users of the Coq proof assistant conducted during February 2022. Broadly, the survey asked about use of Coq features, user interfaces, libraries, plugins, and tools, views on renaming Coq and Coq improvements, and also demographic data such as education and experience with Coq and other proof assistants and programming languages. The survey received 466 submitted responses, making it the largest survey of users of an interactive theorem prover (ITP) so far. We present the design of the survey, a summary of key results, and analysis of answers relevant to ITP technology development and usage. In particular, we analyze user characteristics associated with adoption of tools and libraries and make comparisons to adjacent software communities. Notably, we find that experience has significant impact on Coq user behavior, including on usage of tools, libraries, and integrated development environments (IDEs).

Published: February 2025

Abstract
The reliability and performance of solder ball joints are critical factors affecting the durability and functionality of electronic parts. This study investigates the relationship between metal pad size and the bonding force of solder ball joints. Mechanical strength tests were performed on solder ball bonds with various pad diameters and heights to evaluate the shear stress. Results showed that there is a direct correlation between pad size and bonding stress, with larger pad sizes increasing the contact area and forming a larger area of intermetallic compounds during reflow soldering, resulting in improved mechanical robustness. Conversely, smaller pad sizes were found to be more susceptible to mechanical failure and crack propagation under stress and exhibited higher solder ball dropout rates and misalignment. This study provides valuable insights for optimizing pad design in microelectronic packaging to improve the mechanical reliability of solder ball bonding in applications. Furthermore, it also highlights the importance of considering pad size as a critical parameter in the design and manufacturing process of electronic components.
A singular case of complex suicide by hanging with hesitation marks by axe
Authors: Vinci Annachiara , Laura Ambrosi Laura , Benevento Marcello , Ferorelli Davide , Solarino Biagio 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We present a case of complex suicide concerning a 55-year-old man who hanged himself using a rope anchored to a beam on the terrace of his apartment. Multiple parallel linear wounds were observed on his head. At the crime scene, an axe stained with blood and hair was found resting against the wall adjacent to the stairs leading to the upper floor. Forensic investigations identify the cause of death as mechanical asphyxia due to the hanging, in a complex suicide characterized by hesitation marks inflicted on the head with an axe. This specific type of complex suicide has never been described in the literature.
Beschwerdeverfahren als Mittel zur Verschleierung von Krisen
Authors: Equit Claudia , Thomas Elisabeth 
Published: February 2025

Zusammenfassung
Der Beitrag diskutiert auf der Grundlage des DFG-Projekts „Partizipation in Organisationskulturen der Heimerziehung“ Einblicke in die Funktionsweisen von Beteiligungs- und Beschwerdeverfahren in stationären Wohngruppen. Es zeigt sich, dass Fachkräfte Handlungsspielräume in der Umsetzung von formalen Beteiligungs- und Beschwerdeverfahren besitzen, sodass letztlich sie es sind, die bestimmen, ob sie formale Beteiligungs- und Beschwerdeverfahren zur Umsetzung der Kinderrechte im Alltag der Adressat_innen nutzen oder aber eine Form von „displaying children’s rights“ betreiben, in der formale Beteiligungs- und Beschwerdeverfahren genutzt werden, um junge Menschen zum Schweigen zu bringen. Die Krise ist hier zweifach verortet: einerseits bei jungen Menschen, deren Rechte in einigen Wohngruppen häufig verletzt werden, während sich die Organisation formal als die Kinderrechte anerkennend ausweist, andererseits bei der Jugendhilfereform und Politiken, die auf formale Konzepte wie Beschwerdeverfahren zur Sicherung der Kinderrechte fokussiert sind.
Arbeitsplatzattraktivität und Beschäftigungsqualität beim Deutschen Caritasverband
Authors: Pietsch Marcel , Krimmer Pascal , Heinz André 
Published: February 2025

Zusammenfassung
In Zeiten eines intensivierten Fachkräftemangels sind Organisationen des Sozial- und Gesundheitswesens mehr denn je dazu aufgefordert, qualifiziertes Personal durch attraktive Arbeitsbedingungen zu gewinnen und langfristig an sich zu binden. Mit empirischen Befunden des Caritaspanels 2022 lassen sich Tätigkeitsattraktivität und Beschäftigungsqualität in Sozialer Arbeit und Altenpflege beim Deutschen Caritasverband vergleichen. Das Ergebnisreview zeigt, dass Caritas-Rechtsträger beider Handlungsfelder zahlreiche wichtige Arbeitsplatzaspekte als attraktiv bewerten. Der Grad der Arbeitsbelastung wird hingegen eher als Negativfaktor eingeschätzt. Als aktive Anreize zur Fachkräftesicherung setzen die Rechtsträger v. a. auf gute Weiterbildungsmöglichkeiten, die Umsetzung flexibler Arbeitszeitwünsche und hohe Arbeitsplatzsicherheit. Angebote zur Karriereplanung spielen in Sozialer Arbeit noch eine untergeordnete Rolle, während sie in der Altenpflege bereits stärker etabliert sind. Dies lässt sich u. a. mit den unterschiedlichen Qualifikationsniveaus der Handlungsfelder verknüpfen. Die Befristungsquoten liegen in beiden Bereichen zwischen den branchenweiten Referenzwerten. In der Caritas lassen sich aktuell mehr Personalabgänge in Folge auslaufender Verträge als im übergeordneten Sozial- und Gesundheitswesen beobachten. Allerdings kommt es deutlich häufiger zu Entfristungen als in der übergeordneten Erziehungs- und Unterrichtsbranche. Bei fast 40 % des Personals in der Altenpflege und Sozialen Arbeit handelt es sich zudem um langjährig Beschäftigte, die seit mindestens zehn Jahren im derzeitigen Betrieb tätig sind. Somit scheinen Mitarbeitende vielerorts nachhaltige Beschäftigungs- und Bindungsmöglichkeiten vorzufinden. Für die prospektive Handlungsfähigkeit und Attraktivität sozialprofessioneller Betriebe scheint die weitere empirische Erforschung eigener Praxis- und Beschäftigungsstrukturen insgesamt sehr bedeutsam zu sein.

This technique has been introduced in Kuksin and Shirikyan (J Phys A: Math Gen 37:1–18, 2004), using a different dissipation. However, considering a linear damping of zero order and weaker solutions, we can deal with larger ranges of the nonlinearity and of the spatial dimension; moreover we consider the focusing equation and the defocusing equation as well.
Obinutuzumab in Rituximab-resistant and recurrent membranous nephropathy: a case-series
Authors: Sridharan Krita , Gopal Basu , Wilson Scott , Pham Alan , Hutton Holly 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Background
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults, with high risk of progression to end-stage kidney disease when untreated. Rituximab is commonly used in its treatment however many patients do not respond. Obinutuzumab is a novel anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody for which there is increasing observational evidence in treatment-resistant membranous nephropathy. The majority of evidence for its use relates to anti-phospholipase A2 receptor-(PLA2R) associated membranous nephropathy.

Methods
This was a single-centre case-series of all patients at a tertiary nephrology centre in Melbourne, Australia, treated with Obinutuzumab for membranous nephropathy, between January 2023 and June 2024. All patients who received Obinutuzumab were included in this case-series, irrespective of PLA2R status.

Results
Out of 5 patients with treatment-resistant membranous nephropathy, 3 had PLA2R-associated membranous nephropathy which had previously been refractory to, or relapsed on Rituximab therapy. All 3 patients with PLA2R-positive membranous nephropathy achieved complete immunological and clinical remission after receiving Obinutuzumab. The case of secondary PLA2R-negative membranous nephropathy only achieved partial remission after Obinutuzumab before unexpectedly dying from another cause. The case of recurrent PLA2R-associated membranous nephropathy in a renal allograft did not respond to Obinutuzumab.

Conclusion
This case-series supports the existing evidence in favour of Obinutuzumab for treatment-resistant PLA2R-associated membranous nephropathy. To our knowledge it is the first reported use of Obinutuzumab in sarcoidosis-associated membranous nephropathy.

Adaptive robotic tamping: a novel robotic method for formative surface finishing in earth-based additive manufacturing
Authors: Chadha Kunaljit , Vasey Lauren , Gramazio Fabio , Kohler Matthias 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Earth-based materials are emerging in additive manufacturing (AM) for construction due to their wide availability and minimal environmental impact. However, the inherent rough surface texture from AM processes poses significant barriers to getting accepted by the building industry partly due to its tendency to accumulate dust, dirt, and pollutants, leading to challenges in long-term maintenance. To address this challenge, this paper presents a novel ’tamping’ technique as a formative robotic surface finishing method to achieve smooth surface quality in structures produced through robotic additive manufacturing with earth-based materials, particularly for the Impact Printing process, which involves the discrete aggregation of workable parts at high velocity to create volumetric structures. The tamping process achieves a smooth surface finish by iteratively compacting the structure’s surface while the material remains workable, leveraging the extended workability period of the material post-deposition and eliminating the need for additional materials for surface finishing. This paper describes the experimental setup consisting of a custom end-effector and electronic integration for adaptive control and presents preliminary results of the robotic tamping process, demonstrating its potential to improve surface quality and affirming the viability of the Impact Printing method for sustainable construction practices within the industry.
COP29: achieving net zero through financial sustainability
Authors: Arora Pranay 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Conference of Parties (COP) provide a critical platform to global leaders to review and discuss targets related to achieving the Paris Agreement, and the sustainable development goals. This yearly summit has become a key part of the policy-making sector, allowing actors from different sectors to come together and take action on anthropogenic climate change. At the recently held COP29 summit, important decisions regarding financial flow in the climate sector were taken. These goals aim to increase funding for climate actions, particularly in developing nations, and help reduce human and economic damage from anthropogenic weather disasters. While the decisions promise a huge increase in channeling of funds to developing nations, some critical issues remain in the targets. This article aims to assess the outcomes and decisions taken at COP29 and their benefits and disadvantages, particularly for the developing nations. It also discusses steps that can be taken to further improve these outcomes.
Computational analysis of sutterby nanofluid with heat and mass convective conditions: a comparative study of Riga plate and stationary plate
Authors: Eswaramoorthi S. , Loganathan K. , Choudhary Prasun , Senthilvadivu K. , Ahlawat Anil , Sivakumar M. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The purpose of current study is to analyze the Darcy–Forchheimer flow of sutterby nanofluid in porous media by accounting for both viscous and inertial effects. This flow model enables accurate modelling for industrial, environmental and biological applications, especially at higher flow rates. In this study, the flow of Sutterby nanofluid over a Riga plate is discussed, considering chemical reaction and heat radiation effects in the presence of first-order velocity slip. The nonlinear partial differential equations of this study are tackled by the application of the suitable transformations, which results in a new set of ordinary differential equations. The derived equations are subsequently analysed by an analytical methodology, the Homotopy Analysis Method. The impact of the acquired parameters on velocity, temperature, nanoparticle concentration, and motile microbe distribution is well detailed through diagrams and tables. The results indicate that the velocity of Sutterby nanofluid elevates with the change of the Deborah number. The temperature of Sutterby nanofluid grows with a higher heat generation parameter. The concentration of nanoparticles raises with an elevated solutal Biot number. The profiles of microorganisms drop as the bioconvection Lewis number improves. Also, current modelling offers initial guidance for various biotechnological and industrial uses.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Microbial degradation of methylphosphonate (MPn) is an important pathway contributing to the ‘methane paradox’ in the oxic ocean. Vibrio spp. are suggested to participate in this process. However, little is known about the molecular basis, phylogenetic breadth and catabolic efficiency of methane production in Vibrio species. Here, 18 Vibrionales strains known to be effective in MPn demethylation were obtained. The most effective strains, i.e., Vibrio gallaecicus HW2-07 and HW2-08, can convert 70%–80% of amended MPn into methane in 5 days. Estimations based on quantitative PCR determination indicated that Vibrio spp. were influential contributors to marine methane production. Genes flanking the common phn genes suggested a divergent gene arrangement and grouped the phn operons into nine types. This was consistent with the phylogeny of phnJ and phnL. The phn operons of cluster I and II were identified frequently in Vibrio isolates and were common in coastal seas and the open ocean. Addition of MPn increased expression of the phn genes, as well as an unexpected gene that encodes an acyltransferase (act), which frequently occurred in cluster I–IV operons. This study provided experimental evidence and theoretical support for a further understanding that Vibrio spp. may play important roles in aerobic marine methane production.
Microbial biobank-based strain phenotyping efficiently identifies plant growth-promoting bacteria from citrus rhizosphere

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) enhance nutrient accessibility and offer disease protection, conferring significant advantages to host plants. Although considerable progress has been made in PGPR research, efficient acquisition of PGPR remains challenging, primarily due to the absence of a microbial biobank, especially for perennial woody crops like citrus. Through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, this study analyzed rhizobacterial communities from five citrus-producing regions in China, identifying 9,887 amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) across 28 rhizobacterial phyla. Subsequently, a citrus rhizosphere microbial biobank was established, comprising 3,142 bacterial strains, through extensive isolation of citrus rhizobacteria. From this collection, 269 potential PGPR were screened from 435 bacterial taxa based on their production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), siderophore synthesis, phosphate solubilization, and their effects on Arabidopsis root growth. Further evaluation of 22 selected PGPR strains via pot-culture inoculation on citrus and tomato seedlings demonstrated that 11 strains significantly enhanced plant growth. This study provides a foundational theoretical and technological framework for advancing the development and application of beneficial rhizobacteria in citrus agriculture.

Submesoscale Processes Associated With the East India Coastal Current

Published: February 2025

AbstractSeasonal variations and generation mechanisms of the submesoscale features associated with the East India Coastal Current (EICC) are investigated using a high resolution (1 km) regional ocean model set up for the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during 2012–2013. Simulations show that EICC is extremely rich in submesoscale features manifested as fronts, filaments, and eddies and the associated submesoscale processes exhibit significant seasonal variations. Characteristics such as local Rossby number, normalized horizontal divergence, vertical velocity, and strain rate show marked increase during winter monsoon (November–January). Submesoscale features of EICC are least active during spring (March–April). EICC is much more active in the submesoscale regime than the open ocean. Frontogenesis is the strongest at the end of summer monsoon in the north bay and spreads throughout the EICC in winter monsoon. There is continuous conversion of available potential energy to kinetic energy throughout the year. In the summer monsoon, strong stratification caused by the increased freshwater influx from Ganga‐Brahmaputra rivers suppresses generation of mixed layer instabilities in the north bay. In the winter monsoon, freshwater advection by EICC enhances the generation of mixed layer instabilities. The Ertel potential vorticity is mostly negative for EICC region throughout the winter monsoon. Further investigations of the criteria for symmetric instability reveals that the conditions over EICC region remain highly susceptible to the symmetric instability throughout the winter monsoon. The seasonal variability and generation processes of submesoscale features of EICC are closely related to the seasonal variability of EICC and freshwater forcing of the bay.
