“Epystemologically Different Worlds”: from J. Uexküll to G. Vakariu by Egor V. Falev

“…It is shown that both Husserl’s concept of “lifeworld,” Heidegger’s “world-formation,” and Varela’s “structural coupling,” on the one hand, go back to Uexküll’s concept of Umwelt, on the other hand, can be summarized under the general notion of “epistemologically different worlds.” …”

Stability control of open stopes in high-stress deep mining: a structural parameter design methodology based on the improved mathews stability graph method by Zi-Bin Li, Zi-Bin Li, Deng-Pan Qiao, Deng-Pan Qiao, Tian-Yu Yang, Tian-Yu Yang

“…IntroductionWith the depletion of shallow mineral resources and surging demand for deep mining, metal mines in China have generally entered the kilometer-depth mining stage, confronting challenges in stope stability caused by high ground stress, elevated rock temperatures, high seepage pressure, and intense mining disturbances (“three highs and one disturbance”).MethodsTaking the Dahongshan Copper Mine (800–1000 m depth) as a case study, this paper proposes an enhanced design methodology for structural parameters of deep open stopes to address the limitations of the traditional Mathews stability graph method in 3D mechanical characterization, dynamic evolution analysis, and model generalization.ResultsFirst, an improved stability graph model was developed by refining hydraulic radius calculations through cross-sectional collaborative analysis and establishing quantifiable zoning thresholds for span and exposure area based on geological variations between eastern and western ore sections. …”

Influence of psychosocial factors and parent–student relationships on the academic engagement of TCM students: a structural equation modeling and multi-criteria decision-making fra... by Liang Shaoshuai, Peng Qian, Zhang Yiwen, Xu Meiru

“…Furthermore, the interplay between EQ, AQ, PR, and parent-student relationships, an underexplored dimension in higher education, may serve as a stabilizing force against academic stressors.MethodsThe study involved 428 Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) students who underwent comprehensive evaluations to assess EQ, AQ, PR, parent-student relationships, and academic engagement. Structural equation modeling (SEM) via SmartPLS analyzed causal pathways, while the VIKOR-AHP method addressed MCDM by (1) weighting criteria via AHP and (2) ranking interventions via VIKOR’s compromise-ranking, ensuring practical solutions amid real-world constraints.ResultsThis study examined the impact of EQ, AQ, PR, and parent-student relationships on the academic engagement of TCM students. …”
