Ecological flow refers to the minimum amount of water that must be maintained in a body of water to protect and preserve aquatic ecosystems. This article aims to analyze the function of ecological flow to address the reproduction of the natural hydrological regime of the San Rodrigo River, Coahuila, Mexico. A quantitative methodology was used where...

The complexity of urban areas has motivated the search for integrative approaches. This paper addresses three topics—human habitat, urban metabolism, and urban entropy—to explore their links within the context of urban territory and sustainability. The lack of approaches, outlooks, and synergies motivates the search for an integrated conceptual fra...

A catheter is a device that is inserted into the venous system to infuse treatment with controlled doses per unit of time. The study of its interaction with blood flow cannot be easily analysed with common analytical methods or different visualization techniques in real life. Computational Fluid Dynamics has become a very useful tool in a wide vari...

This study addresses the growing concern of social network (SN) addiction, with a focus on TikTok and Instagram. Guided by the Uses and Gratifications Theory (UGT), we explored the motivations (escapism and social interaction), attitudes (critical thinking), and states (flow and sense of belonging) that influence SN use. Our objective was to invest...

Preserved biological communities can provide baseline data about the historical ecosystems and environmental conditions that preceded recent anthropogenic alteration. Freshwater mussel shells show particularly good preservation, and the shell assemblages commonly found during archaeological excavations can offer insights into past ecosystems. We st...

The corneal endothelium is responsible for pumping fluid out of the stroma in order to maintain corneal transparency, which depends in part on the expression and activity of sodium–potassium pumps. In this study, we evaluated how physiologic pressure and flow influence transcription, protein expression, and activity of Na+/K+-ATPase. Native and eng...

Artificial intelligence and positive psychology play crucial roles in education, yet there is limited research on how these psychological factors influence learners’ use of AI, particularly in language education. Grounded in self-determination theory, this study investigates the factors influencing Chinese English learners’ intention to use AI for ...
