An enhanced fourier neural operator surrogate for radioactive plume transport forecasting by Ayoub, Ali, Wainwright, Haruko M., Wang, Lijing, Sansavini, Giovanni

“…The speed and efficiency of this framework offers a powerful tool for swift decision-making during emergencies, facilitating risk-informed protective actions, evacuation execution, and zone delineation. Its application extends to various contaminant release and transport problems, and can be instrumental in engineering tasks requiring uncertainty quantification (UQ) for environmental risk assessment.…”

Chiral phonons and giant magneto-optical effect in CrBr₃ 2D magnet by Yin, Tingting, Ulman, Kanchan Ajit, Liu, Sheng, Granados Del Águila, Andrés, Huang, Yuqing, Zhang, Lifa, Serra, Marco, Sedmidubsky, David, Sofer, Zdenek, Quek, Su Ying, Xiong, Qihua

“…Here it is shown that 2D magnetic CrBr3 hosts chiral phonons at the Brillouin-zone center. These chiral phonons are linear combinations of the doubly-degenerate Eg phonons, and the phonon eigenmodes exhibit clockwise and counterclockwise rotational vibrations corresponding to angular momenta of l = ± 1. …”

Strut-and-tie and finite element modelling of unsymmetrically-loaded deep beams by Fan, Shengxin, Zhang, Yao, Ma, You-Xin, Tan, Kang Hai

“…Furthermore, a minimum-strain-energy criterion is adopted to define the optimal STM geometry from the stress field, including the dimensions of struts and nodal zones, and strut angles. The proposed STM is validated against 140 test results, including 14 unsymmetrically-loaded deep beams and 126 symmetric deep and short beams, and finite element models (FEMs) for the 14 unsymmetrical deep beams. …”

Alteration of hippocampal CA2 plasticity and social memory in adult rats impacted by juvenile stress by Raghuraman, Radha, Navakkode, Sheeja, Sajikumar, Sreedharan

“…Unlike entorhinal cortical inputs, the Schaffer collateral inputs to CA2 do not support activity-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP), which serves as the basis for long-term memories. This LTP-resistant zone also expresses genes that restrict plasticity. …”

A Proposed Framework of Unemployment and Youth Restiveness in the North-Eastern Nigeria: Exloring the Role of the “Almajiri” Culture by Abbo, Usman, Romle, Abd Rahim

“…More so as unemployment in Nigeria increase by 16% from 2011 to 2013 representing 39.9%, with youth unemployment representing 50% of this, where the north-eastern region continue to manifest the worst poverty rate compare to the other five geo-political zones couple with the existence of about 10 million “Almajiris” in the entire northern region which is much more than the total population of Sweden and the result of several investigation panels revealing the involvement of “Almajiri” in most of the violence occurring in the northern region from 1980 to 2010, where the vulnerability of the “Almajiri” due to abject poverty makes them a tool for unleashing violence by some unscrupulouselements. …”
