Afrika’s Cause Must Triumph: Towards the Hegemony of Lembede’s “Afrika for the Afrikans” as a Political Philosophy of National Liberation in “South Africa”. by Masilo Lepuru

“…The second one is that the intellectual legacy of Lembede is a marginalised study in South African scholarship especially on the figures of the Black Radical Tradition. The third one is that the broad nationalism of Mda was transformed into the Azanian political tradition by Robert Sobukwe and Steve Biko. …”

Neural ODEs for holographic transport models without translation symmetry by Zhuo-Fan Gu, Yu-Kun Yan, Shao-Feng Wu

“…This allows us to determine $$\eta _{\textrm{re}}(\omega )$$ η re ( ω ) of a strongly coupled field theory by the black hole metric and the graviton mass. The latter serves as the bulk dual to the translation symmetry breaking on the boundary. …”

Application of Extrapolation Capability of Vector Fitting for Out-of-Band Dominant Modal Synthesis of Voltage-Source Converters by Weihua Zhou, Jef Beerten

“…Conventional state-space-based stability assessment method of voltage-source converters (VSCs) can be hindered by the black-box feature. Black box-based state-space model identification method using the terminal admittance/impedance frequency responses has thus been drawing increasing research attentions recently. …”

Race and gender biases in assessing pain intensity and medication needs among Chinese observers by Zhiyuan Liu, Tzu-Ying Chuang, Shan Wang

“…Chinese observers were more stringent on East Asians' pain intensity and needs for medication than Whites and Blacks'. However, when Black and East Asian sufferers were perceived to have a similar level of pain, East Asians were more likely to receive medication than Blacks, which is partly due to the observers' stereotypical beliefs that Blacks would have a speedier recovery than East Asians. …”
