A Zero-Flux Material Cylinder in the Unsteady Kiknadze--Krasnov Vortex

Khalid M. Saqr

In viscous flow, the circulation enclosed by a deterministic material loop generally changes through vorticity diffusion. It is shown that the source-bearing unsteady Kiknadze--Kra…

A gauge identity for interscale transfer in inhomogeneous turbulence

Khalid M. Saqr

Local interscale energy transfer in Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is typically diagnosed using the subgrid-scale (SGS) production, . In this work, an exact algebraic gauge i…

Resonant spectral cascade in Womersley flow triggered by arterial geometry

Khalid M. Saqr

Age-related arterial remodeling is dominated by progressive loss of elastic-fiber function and concomitant stiffening, and in many vascular beds it is also accompanied by measurabl…

Zero-shot reasoning for simulating scholarly peer-review

Khalid M. Saqr

Scholarly publishing requires scalable scrutiny supported by auditable evidence. This paper presents a two-component benchmark of xPeer, the peer-review simulation engine delivered…

The State of Papers, Retractions, and Preprints: Evidence from the CrossRef Database (2004-2024)

Khalid M. Saqr

A 20-year analysis of CrossRef metadata demonstrates that global scholarly output -- encompassing publications, retractions, and preprints -- exhibits strikingly inertial growth, w…

Simulation of Non-Ordinary Consciousness

Khalid M. Saqr

The symbolic architecture of non-ordinary consciousness remains largely unmapped in cognitive science and artificial intelligence. While conventional models prioritize rational coh…

Amicus Plato, sed magis amica veritas: There is a reproducibility crisis in COVID-19 Computational Fluid Dynamics studies

Khalid M. Saqr

There is overwhelming evidence on SARS-CoV-2 Airborne Transmission (AT) in the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. It is extraordinarily difficult, however, to deduce a generalized framewor…

Physiologic Blood Flow is Turbulent: Revisiting the Principles of Vascular Hemodynamics

Khalid M. Saqr, Simon Tupin, Sherif Rashad +4

Contemporary paradigm of vascular hemodynamics considers normal blood flow to be pulsatile laminar flow. Transition to turbulence can cause diseases such as atherosclerosis or brai…

A Novel Kuhnian Ontology for Epistemic Classification of STM Scholarly Articles

Khalid M. Saqr

Despite rapid gains in scale, research evaluation still relies on opaque, lagging proxies. To serve the scientific community, we pursue transparency: reproducible, auditable episte…

Non-Kolmogorov Turbulence and Inverse Energy Cascade in Intracranial Aneurysm: Near-Wall Scales Suggest Mechanobiological Relevance

Simon Tupin, Khalid M. Saqr, Sherif Rashad +3

The genesis, growth and rupture of intracranial aneurysm (IA) are open questions in neurovascular medicine until the present moment. The complexity of aneurysm mechanobiology and p…
