ABSTRACT Assuring environmental sustainability is essential for the continuity of the ecosystem. Every sector of the economy has some degree of impact on environmental sustainability. The United Nations (UN)’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have placed these objectives within a broader global framework, offering a global plan aimed at ensuring ...

Abstract Environmental protection and tax policies are part of the crucial pillars and the evolving aspects of environmental sustainability drive. These policies are increasingly employed to counter the 21st century's global climate problem alongside providing economic relief for the implementing economies.

Gender diversity in endodontics: Women's representation at recent biennial meetings
Abstract Aim Leadership opportunities within professional fields often include invitations to speak at major organizational meetings. However, the representation of speakers from underrepresented groups at annual scientific meetings of endodontic organizations has yet to be documented.

Electromagnetic transitions among octet and decuplet baryons in QCD [PDF]
The magnetic dipole G_M(Q^2), electric quadrupole G_E(Q^2), and Coulomb quadrupole G_C(Q^2) form factors, describing the spin-3/2 to spin-1/2 electromagnetic transitions, are investigated within the light cone QCD sum rules. The Q^2 dependence of these form factors, as well as ratios of electric quadrupole and Coulomb quadrupole form factors to the ...

Exploring neuronal mechanisms of osteosarcopenia in older adults
Abstract figure legend The mechanosensitive osteocytic network within the bone matrix acts as a receptor and plays a crucial role in the functional adaptation of bone to mechanical loading. Through mechanotransduction, osteocytes convert mechanical impulses into electrical signals, which are transmitted via afferent nerves to sympathetic preganglionic ...

Ellipsoidal collapse and previrialization [PDF]
We study the non-linear evolution of a dust ellipsoid,embedded in a Friedmann flat background universe, in order to determine the evolution of the density of the ellipsoid as the perturbation to it related detaches from general expansion and begins to collapse.

Multiplexed Piezoelectric Electronic Skin with Haptic Feedback for Upper Limb Prosthesis
This study introduces the development of an electronic skin designed for upper limb amputations, capable of providing comprehensive sensations of pressure, temperature, vibration, and texture. It is integrated with a haptic feedback mechanism that effectively transmits these critical sensations from the prosthetic hand to the healthy part of the body ...

Temporal and spatial correlations in a visco-elastic model of heterogeneous faults [PDF]
We study the temporal and spatial correlations in a one-dimensional model of a heterogeneous fault zone, in the presence of visco-elastic effects. As a function of dynamical weakening and of dissipation, the system exhibits three different "phases" : one in which there are no time correlations between the events, a second, in which there are ``Omori's ...

The Effects of Shear and Rotation Anisotropy Upon the Process of Gravitational Instability [PDF]
In this paper, we study the role of shear fields on the evolution of density perturbations embedded in a Friedmann flat background universe, by studying the evolution of a homogeneous ellipsoid model. In this context, we show that while the effect of the shear is that of increasing the growth rate of the density contrast of a mass element, the angular ...
