The Awareness–Behaviour Paradox: Media Literacy and Social Media Risk Behaviour Among Nigerian Undergraduates
Abstract: Background: The proliferation of internet-capable devices and social media platforms has created an intricate web of risks for Nigerian undergraduates, including cyberbullying, addiction, misinformation, and exposure to indecent content. While media literacy has been widely proposed in Western scholarship as a sustainable intervention for responsible online behaviour, its protective mechanisms remain insufficiently understood in non-Western contexts, particularly with respect to the psychological pathways through which literacy operates.Objectives: This study examined …

Generative AI-Driven Design Optimization of Lightweight Polymer Composites for Electric Vehicles
Abstract: Lightweight polymer composites are increasingly important for electric vehicles, where mass reduction must be achieved without compromising structural performance, thermal stability, manufacturability, or material reliability. This study develops a generative AI-driven inverse-design framework for identifying experimentally credible lightweight polymer-composite configurations under coupled EV-oriented constraints. Public experimental polymer-composite datasets were integrated through leakage-controlled preprocessing and group-aware validation. A multi-task neural surrogate predicted mechanical response, while a conditional variational autoencoder explored feasible …

Representation-Theoretic Symmetry Reduction and Fuzzy-Grey Optimization of Modular Vibration Systems
Abstract: This paper presents a representation-theoretic framework for symmetry-aware vibration control in modular structural systems. Exploiting cyclic symmetry, the mass, damping, and stiffness operators are block-diagonalised into irreducible representations, reducing the full structural dynamics to a collection of lower-dimensional modal subsystems. This decomposition provides both computational efficiency and a rigorous mathematical description of symmetry-preserving dynamic behaviour. To account for imperfections arising in practical implementations, near-symmetry defects in stiffness and damping are …
