Cryptocurrencies and other virtual assets have outgrown the civil-procedure rules meant to reach a debtor's property. A creditor who once needed a bank account number now faces value recorded on a distributed ledger, controlled by…
This paper explores the role of mast cell overactivation and histamine dysregulation as potential pathophysiological mechanisms underlying symptoms observed in ASD and PTSD. Evidence from reviews, meta-analyses, and observational studies suggests a significant association between…
Telling humans apart from automated bots has long been a frustrating challenge for visually impaired users, who find themselves locked out of ordinary web services by CAPTCHA systems built almost entirely around vision. Distorted text,…
Success in education is a process that can take decades and success in complex engineering education does not start at the university level. It's far easier to succeed in civil engineering education if you have…
This study investigates the association between a licensing policy on teacher quality and school ratings in Dubai's private schools. The research focuses on the association between the policy and improvements in teacher quality. Specifically, this…
This study sets out to examine market resilience asymmetry between the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) and B3 Brazil over the period spanning 2019-2025. Using annual return data for the TA-125 and Ibovespa indices obtained…
The construction sector is under increasing pressure to reduce embodied carbon while maintaining structural safety and durability. Concrete structures, particularly those relying on conventional steel reinforcement, contribute significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions due to…
Most ways of governing cultural and religious diversity today come from Western liberal political ideas. These methods usually focus on being neutral and not favoring specific values. This paper questions that approach. It argues that…
Abstract Arid and semi-arid lands are frequently framed as marginal or degradable spaces, yet drylands cover a substantial fraction of the terrestrial surface and support diverse biota, cultural landscapes, and livelihoods. This article redrafts and…
Abstract Biochar amendments are increasingly proposed to “enhance dune sand” by increasing water retention, nutrient availability, microbial colonisation, and vegetation establishment, thereby stabilising mobile sands and improving resilience in arid and coastal landscapes. Yet dune…
The rise of social media influence has reshaped the communication of information and the trust of consumers in the digital age. The opinion and endorsements of influencers shape and control the markets and behaviors of…
This study re-examines the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and firm performance by introducing capital structure not merely as a moderator but as a financial constraint that conditions the efficiency of CSR investments. While…
Accurate prediction of shear strength in reinforced concrete beam–column joints is essential for seismic design, yet traditional code-based equations, such as those in ACI 318M-14, often oversimplify complex interactions among geometric, material, and reinforcement parameters,…
The present study proposes a multi-objective optimization model for reinforced concrete deep beams based on the study and improvement of structural performance using multi objective optimization. In traditional design methodologies, the complex relationships between various…
Concrete compressive strength (CCS) is a key factor that affects the structural service life of structure. Laboratory testing is time consuming, costly, and restricted in applicability for the mix designs. Machine learning (ML) has emerged…
In October 2019, Lebanon's banking system collapsed, freezing and devaluing deposits held by millions, including a significant proportion of the Lebanese diaspora. While prior scholarship has documented the macroeconomic dimensions of the crisis, the subjective…
Work is central to adult life, yet adults with disabilities remain far less likely to be employed than their non-disabled peers, and vocational rehabilitation (VR) is the principal service response to that gap. This review…
This paper presents a quantitative and comparative risk analysis examining the relative safety of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the context of two concurrent threat dimensions: hostile aerial attacks and routine road traffic incidents.…
Childhood disability rehabilitation has, for much of its history, been organized around the clinic and the specialist rather than around the child's everyday life. This conceptual paper argues that such arrangements underuse the single most…
Assistive technology, from wheelchairs and hearing aids to spectacles and communication devices, is a precondition for the participation, health, education, and livelihood of people with disabilities, yet its distribution is among the most unequal in…
