From Particle to Purpose: A Systems‐Theoretical Model of Unity and Coherent Adaptation
ABSTRACT This paper develops a conceptual integration that bridges classical systems theories with insights from the Islamic intellectual tradition, focusing on the notion of zerre (particle) as articulated by Said Nursî. We reinterpret zerre as a systems‐theoretical agent that exhibits lawful responsiveness without autonomy, offering a new lens on how

Toward a cross-border early-warning system for Central Asia
Rapidly expanding urban areas in Central Asia are increasingly vulnerable to seismic risk; but at present, no earthquake early warning (EEW) systems exist in the region despite their successful implementation in other earthquake-prone areas. Such systems

Abstract The preservation of reinforced concrete masterpieces from the 20th century poses a complex challenge. These structures often combine architectural, historical, and technological value, which standard engineering codes and conservation practices are not fully equipped to address. The Erasmus+ REcube project responded to this gap by promoting an

Experimental investigation of reinforced concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic axial loading
Abstract This paper presents an experimental campaign of five reinforced concrete members subjected to cyclic axial loading alternating between tension and compression. Fiber optical sensors and digital image correlation, in combination with automated crack detection and measurement, were used to investigate, among other aspects, the development of ...

Teaching Through Trauma: English Teachers Navigating Affective Regimes in Post‐Earthquake Türkiye
Abstract This study explores how English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in post‐earthquake Türkiye narrated their experiences of loss, survival, and teaching within state‐imposed affective regimes. Drawing on an affective–discursive analysis of Ministry of National Education (MoNE) documents and media texts, the study first investigates how ...
