The urgency of decarbonization has generated increasing interest in using mission-oriented innovation policies to achieve net-zero emissions. An energy transformation, however, requires managing a much more complex portf...

This paper examines the development of the electric vehicle (EV) industry in China from the perspective of mission-oriented innovation policies. It explores how China’s central and local governments interact to create ...

Rapid population ageing has confronted numerous societies, including South Korea, with a severe crisis of elderly isolation, poverty and care deficits. However, existing mission paradigms have failed to provide theologic...

Abstract Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, are increasingly deployed for critical missions such as environmental monitoring, infrastructure inspection, and disaster response. Assessing the reliability of these ...

Abstract Background Respect for patients’ rights is a cornerstone of quality, patient-centred health care and effective healthcare governance. Ghana’s Patients’ Rights Charter (PRC), introduced in 2002, provides a ...

Global university rankings have increasingly come to function as a proxy for quality, shaping institutional priorities, internal quality assurance (IQA) practices, and scholarly labour in ways that may conflict with loca...

Abstract Access to clean and safe drinking water is a fundamental human right and a cornerstone of sustainable development. Among all the Sustainable Development Goals, SDG 6 (Clean Drinking Water and Sanitation) is dist...

Background/Aim: Omission lies (lies whereby lie tellers deliberately leave out information they do not wish the target person to know) are frequently told, yet under investigated. Detecting such lies could be challenging...

This article critically examines the transformation of Christian mission paradigms from expansion-oriented approaches toward dialogical and relational models within the plural context of the Indonesian archipelago. The s...

This study is motivated by the gap between the massive dynamics of digital transformation and the church’s mission practices, which have not yet fully integrated local culture into the digital sphere in a theologically...

This paper re-examines the concept of Missio Dei as a relational fellowship, starting from a theological study of John 17:20–21. In practice, the understanding of the church's mission is often reduced to mere programma...

Due to error sources arising from undersampling of target signals and imperfections in background models, the single-pair satellite gravity missions equipped with the low-low satellite-to-satellite tracking technology ar...

Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operations confront complex systemic risks that challenge traditional analytical methods. This paper develops a hierarchical Bayesian Network (BN) to quantitatively model these risk...

Abstract This paper proposes a corridor-based drone–carrier framework for last-mile urban delivery that explicitly minimizes environmental impact while improving logistics efficiency. Starting from a central warehouse,...

Abstract Efficient and timely transportation of blood samples across medical centers is critically important, particularly in countries where traffic congestion significantly delays road-based delivery. The operational r...

Abstract Introduction The Emergency Medical Service Benefit Score (EBS) was recently developed from the former Helicopter Benefit Score (HBS) to provide a standardized tool for evaluating the benefits of prehospital inte...

Abstract Nozomi was Japan’s first space mission to Mars, launched on 3 July 1998 UT. It was equipped with the Mars Dust Counter (MDC) which was an impact ionisation dust detector. MDC detected 96 dust particle impacts ...

Terrestrial evaporation ($E$) plays a crucial role in the water, energy, and carbon cycles and modulates climate change through multiple feedback mechanisms. While process-based models estimate $E$ using satellite-derive...

This paper examines how finance shapes sustainability transitions in food and agriculture, using Nova Scotia as a case study. While the role of finance is increasingly recognized in sustainability transitions scholarship...

Today, substance use disorder is a pandemic in Zimbabwe, mostly because of political and economic crises and consequential societal despair. Several clinical and sociological studies with a major focus on saving youth fr...

Introduction. Reliable and accurate state estimation plays a central role in mobile robotics, ensuring effective localization, navigation, and control in uncertain and dynamic environments. Traditional estimation methods...

Abstract Low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites encounter significant energy challenges during eclipse periods and low solar illumination, limiting mission autonomy, operational lifespan, and functionality. This paper presents...

Abstract Optically trapped silica nanoparticles are a promising tool for precise sensing of gravitational or inertial forces and fundamental physics, including tests of quantum mechanics at “large” mass scales. This ...
