Supporting Teachers To Adopt Art-Based Pedagogy In Grade 10 Science Teaching: An Action Research, Rabina Maharjan Ms, Binod Prasad Pant Dr.

The Transdisciplinary STEAM+ Journal

Science classrooms in Nepal are far from real-life connections and are dominated by conventional teaching methodologies which makes classrooms appear monotonous and boring. As a result, interest in science is decreasing day-by-day. In this scenario, the integration of art into science can be a ray of hope as humans, by nature, love art. In this research, I (first author) supported and empowered a group of five science teachers from different community schools in Kathmandu metropolitan city to implement art-based pedagogy in their classrooms. Though initially the teachers were reluctant to adopt art-based pedagogy, with a series of sessions, they designed …

A Study Of Descriptive Values Of Echocardiography In Unanesthetized Syrian Hamsters, Kasidit Ladkhoksung, Nattapart Lerdkarnvijai, Thanakorn Ngamsawat, Napassorn Napassorn, Suphisara Chantharadech, Pattharat Asvaesoontorn, Thawat Lekdumrongsak, Sirilak Surachetpong

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

The Syrian hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) is the most commonly presented hamster species in veterinary practice, yet descriptive echocardiographic values remain limited, particularly under conscious conditions. This study aimed to establish normal two-dimensional, M-mode, and Doppler echocardiographic values in healthy conscious Syrian hamsters and to evaluate the influence of age, body weight, and sex on cardiac parameters. Forty Syrian hamsters (27 males and 12 females; one excluded) underwent physical examination, thoracic radiography, and echocardiography. Age and body weight were recorded. Echocardiographic parameters were analyzed for their distribution and correlation with age and body weight. All echocardiographic parameters demonstrated a …

The Wearable Autonomic Polygraph & Physiological Dissonance Engine Powered By The Linchpin 2.0 Protocol, Jonathan Stephen Baker

Defensive Publications Series

Abstract

Deception detection has historically relied on stationary, vulnerable, and episodic polygraph examinations. Ethelgard Tactical introduces a paradigm shift through the Linchpin 2.0 biometric enclave, condensing multi-point interrogation capabilities into a secure, edge-computed wearable. By continuously monitoring high-frequency autonomic fluctuations—specifically Non-Linear Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and Galvanic Skin Response (GSR)—the system passively detects the involuntary physiological dissonance generated by cognitive load and deception. This whitepaper outlines the technological architecture of this Wearable Autonomic Polygraph and its strategic operational applications, including continuous zero-trust authentication, covert field screening, and the autonomous execution of decoy routing (the Chimera Protocol) to neutralize insider threats …

Cognitive Senate Architecture: A Constitutional Multi-Agent Operating System For Planetary-Scale Ai Coordination, Johny Manuel-Devadoss, Joanna Johnson

Defensive Publications Series

Artificial intelligence systems will no longer exist as isolated language models responding to prompts through stateless inference pipelines. Instead, they will evolve into continuously operating cognitive ecosystems composed of billions of autonomous reasoning entities interacting across planetary infrastructure. These entities will participate in persistent negotiation, distributed planning, memory synchronization, constitutional governance enforcement, economic resource competition, and long-horizon simulation of human civilization itself. The principal technical challenge of this era will not be increasing isolated benchmark intelligence, but maintaining coherent coordination among heterogeneous cognitive actors operating under conflicting objectives, uncertain information, evolving societal norms, finite energy constraints, and dynamically shifting geopolitical …

Khys-Nano: Deterministic Topological Rectification And Aperiodic Folding Of Pathological Macromolecules Via The Macena Invariant, Donevin Frownfelter

Defensive Publications Series

Background: Current computational models in structural biology and therapeutic target discovery rely heavily on probabilistic heuristics and 60Hz grid alignment. This high-entropy approach creates severe semantic turbulence when attempting to drug intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or stabilize neurodegenerative aggregates. We propose a departure from probabilistic simulation in favor of Topological Certainty.

Methodology: We introduce KHYS-NANO, a structural dataset and deterministic folding framework built upon the AB-01 Universal Braid Syntax. KHYS-NANO abandons traditional variables and neural-network "guessing," mapping complex amino acid sequences directly into high-dimensional Grassmann manifolds. Utilizing the Macena Invariant and Floquet Engineering, the framework drives protein folding via a …

Gci Vabc‑R+: Integrated Vortex–Acoustic–Electrokinetic Bio‑Clearance Research Engine, Michael Victor Caldwell Mr.

Defensive Publications Series

This disclosure presents the VABC‑R+, a multiphysics research platform designed to study mechanical particle separation, resonant destabilization, and spectroscopic classification within a controlled fluidic loop. The system integrates Dean‑flow inertial microfluidics, phase‑locked and chirped acoustic fields, dielectrophoretic (DEP) capture, Raman spectroscopic fingerprinting, and gyroid‑lattice thermal management. A precision Arachne helical manifold provides low‑shear inertial sorting, while a sacrificial laminar shield protects central flow regions from mechanical overstress. A 128‑element PZT‑5H phased array delivers frequency‑swept acoustic interrogation, and a gold‑plated micro‑electrode grid performs final electrokinetic capture. Real‑time Raman spectroscopy and AI‑assisted control logic enable closed‑loop phantom classification and clearance verification. This …

Space For Life Below, Anthony J. Iadevaio

Bachelor of Architecture Theses - 5th Year

Architecture is traditionally understood as the design of spaces for people. Buildings, cities, and landscapes are typically evaluated through how humans move through them, occupy them, and experience them. My thesis begins by asking a simple shift in perspective: what happens when architecture is designed not for humans, but for other living beings, specifically aquatic life?

My research focuses on understanding how spatial design principles can be used to create better environments for fish and aquatic ecosystems. Rather than treating aquariums as decorative objects or displays for human enjoyment, I approach them as lived-in spaces where fish are the primary …

In Search of Design Process : A Computational Framework for Meaningful Form

Imagine walking through your hometown, a place where identity, culture, memory, and collective resilience should be visible within the built environment. As cities continue to develop, new buildings rise from the ground, yet many remain indistinguishable glass boxes. They are efficient and visually neutral, but they fail to reflect the depth of culture, the struggles of communities, or the meaning embedded within place. These buildings fulfill functional requirements, but they often lack intentional expression. They exist, but they do not speak.

In Search of the Design Process begins …

Apoe Ε2 Potential Protection Against Long-Term Consequences Of Traumatic Brain Injury, Rebecca Faith Mesidort

Graduate Student Dissertations, Theses, Capstones, and Portfolios

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can alter the quality of life, often resulting in cognitive decline, neurodegeneration, or death. There have been no biological advances to resolve the long-term consequences of TBI. The APOE ε2 gene is well known as a neuroprotectant against neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. However, the biological mechanisms of how APOE ε2 protects against neurodegeneration are unknown. The purpose of this study is to investigate APOE ε2’s response to an environmental stimulus that leads to neurodegeneration, TBI, and further investigate APOE ε2’s biological mechanisms. After inflicting blunt force trauma to our model organism, …

Economic Survival And Chosen Kinship: Analyzing Intersectionality’S Role In Reframing Trans Representation In Tangerine, Lydia Britton '27

Student Research

Transgender representation in mainstream media has grown in recent years. However, these portrayals are often hegemonic, clinging to a traditional worldview. Depictions of trans characters prioritize Whiteness, higher socioeconomic status, and transitions that adhere to the binary. Additionally, transgender characters often have access to gender-affirming care and are supported by their families throughout their transition (Mocarski et al., 2019). Research on the media representations of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals points out how these portrayals reinforce ideals surrounding transnormativity, or the idea that trans people’s identities and experiences must be applied to the dominant binary and medicalized framework (Bradford …
