  • Abstract: The aerospace industry is undergoing a profound transformation driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration. AI-powered generative design algorithms expedite aircraft component exploration, optimising performance and lowering production costs. Predictive maintenance and quality control utilise AI to preemptively detect anomalies, enhancing safety and minimising downtime. Robotic automation improves assembly precision and output efficiency. AI also… Read more →

  • Abstract: The U.S. has been historically very active in West Asia, not just after World War II but much before that. The U.S. and West Asia also share the Abrahamic religion; therefore, there are religious affiliations primarily with Jerusalem. The engagement of great powers with this region is also justified by the region’s abundant fossil… Read more →

  • Abstract: Yemen’s Ansar Allah Shia (commonly known as the Houthis) have claimed the use of a hypersonic missile in an attack on the container ship MSC Sarah V. However, since the beginning of the Red Sea crisis, the Houthis have made numerous claims; nevertheless, most are unverified and seem to be expressed for propaganda purposes.… Read more →

  • Abstract: France’s influence in its former Sub-Saharan African colonies has been slipping. Russia has been capitalising on popular anti-French sentiment, weak state security, and vulnerable infrastructure to advance its geopolitical goals on the continent. This is done through the use of the Wagner Group, a Russian-based Private Military Contractor (PMC), which has proved to be… Read more →

  • Abstract: The characteristics of a pyramid scheme consist of paying benefits based on the increase in the number of participants in the scheme or the increase in the contributions made by the participants in the scheme. Forming a pyramid scheme requires only one prerequisite. Even though pyramid schemes have one or two characteristics, people find… Read more →

  • Abstract: Prof. Kisilowski, in his article on Verfassungsblog, advocates for a militant public administration in Poland and other countries to defend against populist takeovers. Examples from Austria, Italy, and the U.S. demonstrate that resilient civil servants can effectively hinder populists’ efforts to reshape public administration. The global rise of populism threatens public institutions, including the… Read more →

  • Abstract: Innovation in analysing different methods and techniques promises new avenues for effective education. Learning and teaching processes are becoming increasingly significant for both theoretical and practical reasons. New technologies, such as virtual reality (VR), have been employed in recent years to transform teaching methods and enhance learning. Concurrently, educational psychologists strive to better understand… Read more →

  • Abstract: Taiwan’s New Southbound Policy (NSP) to foster deep ties with Southeast and South Asia seems to synergise with India’s Indo-Pacific strategy. The coming together of Taipei and New Delhi has been necessitated not only because of an assertive People’s Republic of China (PRC) but also by the strategic opportunities offered because of close collaboration.… Read more →

  • Abstract: The current Russian campaign in Ukraine suggests that due to the ongoing Attrition Warfare, the Manoeuvrist Approach is becoming obsolete. Against this backdrop, the role of the operational level in accordance with military doctrine in terms of the general approach towards warfare is being examined. There is a focus on the linkage of these… Read more →

  • Abstract: As Bangladesh is mainly surrounded by India, most of its political decisions are influenced by the latter’s presence.
