Discussion on the Construction of Interactive Chinese Teaching Mode of Mobile App Application under the Internet Background

Under the new situation of Chinese internationalization promotion and educational informatization, online learning of Chinese as a foreign language is the key to learning Chinese as a foreign language in the future. Today, people learning Chinese as a second language must learn Chinese quickly online. However, it is not the best thing to open a website for learning Chinese as a foreign language at present. Learning Chinese online may not meet the needs of students, and it is not uncommon for students to give up in the process of Chinese learning. Therefore, the article discusses the teaching methods of Chinese as a foreign language and the use of new media and analyzes the shortcomings of Chinese teaching. This paper demonstrates the possibility and scienti ﬁ city of using mobile app to conduct online interactive teaching of Chinese as a foreign language from both theoretical and practical aspects, aiming to promote the development of online teaching of Chinese as a foreign language, and then promote the promotion of foreign language Chinese as a foreign language. The results of the survey show that 75%, 96.1%, and 96.2% of the students who have studied Chinese for three months, six months, and one year, respectively, have downloaded the app Chinese language-assisted teaching software to learn Chinese.
Scanning electron microscopy investigation of loess soil stabilized with cement and natural zeolite

Zeolite and Portland cement have been used to stabilize a loess soil from the region of Kozloduy (North Bulgaria). This paper examines the microstructural behavior of cement–zeolite treated loess soil without compaction at water content higher than optimum. Scanning electron microscopy and semi-quantitative energy dispersive spectroscopy analyses on stabilized loess were carried out after various curing periods. The identification of the formation of cementitious products in treated loess soil was conducted by SEM–EDS spectral analysis. Based on the study of the microstructural development, it was found that the modified loess microstructure undergoes significant modifications during the observed period.
Technology gap assessment and productivity gain through front line demonstration in groundnut

KVK, Padampur, Sriganganagar (Rajasthan) conducted total 94 cluster front line demonstrations on groundnut at farmers field in Sriganganagar district (Rajasthan) during three consecutive Kharif seasons from 2019 to 2021. The farming situation was irrigated and soil was sandy loam low in nitrogen, medium in phosphorus and medium to high in potash. Assessment of gap was done and on basis of gap assessment, improved recommended technologies were demonstrated. On overall average basis, 16.75 % higher pod yield was recorded under demonstrations than the farmer’s traditional practices (Local check). The extension gap, technology gap and technology index were 350 kg/ha, 357 kg/ha and 12.74 %, respectively. An additional investments of Rs. 1249 per ha consist with scientific monitoring of demonstration and non–monetary factors resulted in additional return of Rs. 17,787 per ha. On three year average basis incremental benefit : cost ratio was found 18.16.
Optimizing Antimicrobial Dosing for Critically Ill Patients with MRSA Infections: A New Paradigm for Improving Efficacy during Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

The dosage regimen of vancomycin, teicoplanin and daptomycin remains controversial for critically ill patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Monte Carlo simulation was applied to identify the optimal regimens of antimicrobial agents in patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections based on the mechanisms of different CRRT modalities on drug clearance. The optimal vancomycin dosage for patients received a CRRT doses ≤ 30 mL/kg/h was 20 mg/kg loading dose followed by 500 mg every 8 h, while 1 g every 12 h was appropriate when 35 mL/kg/h was prescribed. The optimal teicoplanin dosage under a CRRT dose ≤ 25 mL/kg/h was four loading doses of 10 mg/kg every 12 h followed by 10 mg/kg every 48 h, 8 mg/kg every 24 h and 6 mg/kg every 24 h for continuous veno-venous hemofiltration, continuous veno-venous hemodialysis and continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration, respectively. When the CRRT dose increased to 30–35 mL/kg/h, the teicoplanin dosage should be increased by 30%. The recommended regimen for daptomycin was 6–8 mg/kg every 24 h under a CRRT dose ≤ 25 mL/kg/h, while 8–10 mg/kg every 24 h was optimal under 30–35 mg/kg/h. The CRRT dose has an impact on probability of target attainment and CRRT modality only influences teicoplanin.
An Evaluation of 2D Human Pose Estimation based on ResNet Backbone

: 2D Human Pose Estimation (2D-HPE) has been widely applied in many practical applications in life such as sports analysis, medical fall detection, human-robot interaction, using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), which has achieved many good results. In particular, the 2D-HPE results are intermediate in the 3D Human Pose Estimation (3D-HPE) process. In this paper, we perform a study to compare the results of 2D-HPE using versions of Residual Network (ResNet/RN) (RN-10, RN-18, RN-50, RN-101, RN-152) on HUman 3.6M Dataset (HU-3.6M-D). We transformed the original 3D annotation data of the Human 3.6M dataset to a 2D human pose. The estimated models are ﬁne-tuning based on two protocols of the HU-3.6M-D with the same input parameters in the RN versions. The best estimate has an error of 34.96 pixels with Protocol #1 and 28.48 pixels with Protocol #3 when training with 10 epochs, increasing the number of training epochs reduces the estimation error (15.8 pixels of Protocol #1, 12.4 pixels of Protocol #3). The results of quantitative evaluation, comparison, analysis, and illustration in the paper.
Inclusive Education – A Prescript to Engagement by all Stakeholders

Abstract Inclusive education forms a crucial part of social cohesion that underpins fairness in any society, which means equal opportunities for all. Many countries have embraced this concept as the general view is that society will undergo a positive paradigm shift if education is all encompassing since education is a microcosm of society. However, the main question that should be addressed is to what extent is education inclusive? Does it cater for diverse student population, for example, the disabled (physically and mentally), students with mild, moderate and serious learning disabilities, different genders, ethnic groups, religious affiliations, classes, etc. A mixed research methodology can determine the core roles of the different stakeholders that underpin fundamental concepts of full inclusivity. Inclusive education can be realised if different stakeholders who are directly affected are taken on board. These would be students as the focal point, as well as teachers, schools, institutions where teachers are trained, curriculum developers and the government. Students’ academic needs as well as their personal growth and development must be the prescript that informs the curriculum, and this must be embedded in all education policies and practices. Students’ engagement and motivation form the bedrock of inclusive education as the support of the other stakeholders culminates in this. Lack of a strong academic background and the student’s home language are some of the strategies used to deny enrolment to certain students. In essence, revising current practices with a view to updating policies and the curriculum to align them with students’ educational needs will increase students’ engagement and will therefore lead to full integration and success. Key words: Inclusive education, education policies, curriculum, learning disabilities, education reform
Effect of Chitosan Incorporation on the Development of Acrylamide during Maillard Reaction in Fructose–Asparagine Model Solution and the Functional Characteristics of the Resultants

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of 0.5% chitosan incorporation on acrylamide development in a food model solution containing 0.5% fructose and asparagine after heating for 30 min at 180 °C. All the solutions were investigated for the following characteristics: acrylamide, asparagine, reducing sugar content, color, kinematic viscosity, Maillard reaction products (MRPs), and pH every 10 min. After heating for 10 min, the viscosity of chitosan-containing solutions reduced significantly. The investigational data confirmed that chitosan may have decomposed into lower molecular structures, as demonstrated by the reduced viscosity of the solution at pH < 6 and a decrease in the acrylamide content during 30 min of heating in a fructose–asparagine system. This study also confirms that the formation of ultraviolet-absorbing intermediates and browning intensity of MRPs containing acrylamide prepared by fructose–asparagine was more than those of MRPs prepared by glucose–asparagine solution system. MRPs containing acrylamide resulted from the reaction of asparagine with fructose (ketose) rather than glucose (aldose). Acrylamide formation could be significantly mitigated in the fructose–asparagine–chitosan model system as compared to the fructose–asparagine model system for possible beverage and food application.
Evaluation of Growth Progress among Malnourished Children Attending Village Child Nutrition Centre (VCNC) Under Mission Balam Sukham at Ahmedabad District, Gujarat

Introduction: Government of Gujarat launched “Mission BalamSukham” in the year 2012 to combat the malnutrition with three tier approach. At village level Village Child Nutrition Center (VCNC) runs at Anganwadi centers where children with Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) and Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM) children aged 6 months to 6 years without any medical complications are enrolled for 30 days and provided with the nutrition supplements as per standard protocol including micronutrients. Objectives: To study the growth progress among malnourished children after one month of intervention at VCNC. Method: A cross sectional study was conducted over one year pe¬riod in selected VCNCs of Ahmedabad District. All the malnourished children admitted to these selected VCNCs during study period were included in the study. Data on weight status at admission and discharge, rate of weight gain, grade of malnutrition at entry and exit were collected from the records and analyzed using statistical software. Results: A total of 934 malnourished children were included in the study. A statistically significant difference was observed for weight at discharge (11.1 ± 2.07) and weight at admission (9.92 ± 1.77) for all the children. About 8.7 % children in urban and 16.5 % in rural area achieved the recommended weight gain of 5 grams/kg/day and the difference was statistically significant. In urban and rural area children who achieved the target (>15%) weight gain was 6.3% and 14.7%, respectively and this difference was statistically significant. Conclusion: In the current study, 7.3% children achieved the target (>15%) weight gain. Suggesting that VCNC supplementation for 1 month was not found adequate to give desired result.
Studi Pengarusutamaan Kebijakan Lingkungan Hidup dan Perubahan Iklim dalam Perencanaan Pembangunan di Indonesia

ABSTRACT Over the past few years, environmental issues have become a major policy agenda in developed and developing countries. The government has some alternatif policies that can be used as a form of the intervention either to play the role of market-based policies and government regulations as well as another options. In this context, the Government of Indonesia already issued Presidential Decree No. 61 Year 2011 on National Action Plan for Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions (RAN-GRK). Based on this document, financial source for climate change (PI) and also protection, preservation of the environment (PPLH) mainly comes from the state budget, local budget, private sector and other sources that allowed by regulations. Unfortunately, the capacity for this obligation is still constrained. For this reason, public finances must be able to cooperate with the private sector in order to leverage the capacity. Regarding this matter, the flexibility for the allocation of state budget/local budget is not easy, due several reason. One of that reason is the lack of policy meanstreaming PPLH the PI on the budgeting systems, the nature of the management PI and PPLH and also lack of awareness from many stakeholders. By using descriptive analysis method, this paper tries to answer these issues from the variety of scenarios, especially in the sphere of government planning and budgeting policy. ABSTRAK Selama beberapa tahun terakhir, isu lingkungan telah menjadi agenda kebijakan utama di negara-negara maju dan berkembang. Pemerintah memiliki beberapa kebijakan alternatif yang dapat digunakan sebagai bentuk intervensi baik untuk memainkan peran kebijakan berbasis pasar dan peraturan pemerintah serta pilihan lain. Dalam konteks ini, Pemerintah Indonesia sudah mengeluarkan Keputusan Presiden Nomor 61 Tahun 2011 tentang Rencana Aksi Nasional Penurunan Emisi Gas Rumah Kaca (RAN-GRK). Berdasarkan dokumen ini, sumber keuangan untuk perubahan iklim (PI) dan juga perlindungan, pelestarian lingkungan (PPLH) terutama berasal dari APBN, APBD, swasta dan sumber-sumber lain yang diperbolehkan oleh peraturan. Sayangnya, kapasitas untuk kewajiban ini masih terkendala. Untuk alasan ini, keuangan publik harus dapat bekerja sama dengan sektor swasta dalam rangka untuk meningkatkan kapasitas. Mengenai hal ini, fleksibilitas untuk alokasi APBN / APBD tidak mudah, karena beberapa alasan. Salah satu alasan itu adalah kurangnya kebijakan meanstreaming PPLH PI pada sistem penganggaran, sifat dari PI manajemen dan PPLH dan juga kurangnya kesadaran dari berbagai pemangku kepentingan. Dengan menggunakan metode analisis deskriptif, tulisan ini mencoba untuk menjawab isu-isu ini dari berbagai skenario, terutama di bidang perencanaan pemerintah dan kebijakan penganggaran.
Effect of Load Spatial Configuration on the Heating of Chicken Meat Assisted by Radio Frequency at 40.68 MHz

Food heating assisted by radio frequencies has been industrially applied to post-harvest treatment of grains, legumes and various kind of nuts, to tempering and thawing of meat and fish products and to post-baking of biscuits. The design of food processes based on the application of radiofrequencies was often based on rules of thumb, so much so that their intensification could lead significant improvements. One of the subjects under consideration is the shape of the food items that may influence their heating assisted by radiofrequency. In this work, a joint experimental and numerical study on the effects of the spatial configuration of a food sample (chicken meat shaped as a parallelepiped) on the heating pattern in a custom RF oven (40.68 MHz, 50 Ohm, 10 cm electrodes gap, 300 W) is presented. Minced chicken breast samples were shaped as cubes (4 × 4 × 4 cm3) to be organized in different loads and spatial configurations (horizontal or vertical arrays of 2 to 16 cubes). The samples were heated at two radiofrequency operative power levels (225 W and 300 W). Heating rate, temperature uniformity and heating efficiency were determined during each run. A digital twin of the experimental system and process was developed by building and numerically solving a 3D transient mathematical model, taking into account electromagnetic field distribution in air and samples and heat transfer in the food samples. Once validated, the digital tool was used to analyze the heating behavior of the samples, focusing on the most efficient configurations. Both experiments and simulations showed that, given a fixed gap between the electrodes (10 cm), the vertically oriented samples exhibited a larger heating efficiency with respect to the horizontally oriented ones, pointing out that the gap between the top electrode and the samples plays a major role in the heating efficiency. The efficiency was larger (double or even more; >40% vs. 10–15%) in thicker samples (built with two layers of cubes), closer to the top electrode, independently from nominal power. Nevertheless, temperature uniformity in vertical configurations was poorer (6–7 °C) than in horizontal ones (3 °C).
A 10-Year Impact Evaluation of the Universal Salt Iodization (USI) Intervention in Sarawak, Malaysia, 2008–2018

A universal salt iodization (USI) was introduced in Sarawak, Malaysia in 2008 to control the iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) among its population. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the USI among school children in Sarawak after 10 years of implementation. The data were extracted from 2008 and 2018 Sarawak state-wide IDD surveys. Briefly, both surveys were cross-sectional surveys covering information on the socio-demographic, status of goitre, urinary iodine, and the amount of iodine in the salt samples. A total of 1104 and 988 between the ages of 8 and 10 were involved in the 2008 and 2018 surveys, respectively. The overall prevalence of goitre among the school children in Sarawak was significantly lower in 2018 (0.1%) compared to 2008 (2.9%). The median urinary iodine concentration (UIC) in urine samples had risen significantly from 102.1 µg/L in 2008 to 126.0 µg/L in 2018. In terms of iodine content in salt samples, the median concentration improved significantly in 2018 (35.5 µg/L) compared to 2008 (14.7 µg/L). After 10 years of USI implementation in Sarawak, the results from both surveys confirmed the effectiveness of mandatory USI in increasing the nutritional iodine status of school children in Sarawak.
Behavior of Selected Materials to Create Sliding Joint in the Foundation Structure

Some foundation structures can be loaded with horizontal stress, for example pre-stressed foundation structures or structures on undermining areas. Then it is necessary to solute their effects, because they can have very significant effect on the building. When it is spoken about the foundation structures which are loaded with horizontal stress then it is spoken about two possibilities of this loading. In the first case there are horizontal deformations in the structure and in the second case these deformations can arise in the subsoil. In both of them it can be used the method with using sliding joint to increase of shear stress between foundation structure and subsoil. Asphalt belt is often used to create this sliding joint. At the faculty of Civil Engineering some materials are tested to better knowledge of asphalt belts properties and to more precise design and calculation of sliding joint.
Centrifugal Impeller Blade Shape Optimization Through Numerical Modeling

Surrogate model based shape optimization methodology to enhance performance of a centrifugal pump has been implemented in this work. Design variables, such as blade number and blade angles defining the pump impeller blade shape were selected and a three-level full factorial design approach was used for efficiency enhancement. A threedimensional simulation using Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) equations for the performance analysis was carried out after designing the geometries of the impellers at the design points. Standard k-ε turbulence model was used for steady incompressible flow simulations. The optimized impeller incurred lower losses by shifting the trailing edge towards the impeller pressure side. It is observed that the surrogates are problem dependent and most accurate surrogate does not deliver the best design always.
A combined transport-injection model for hot-electron and hot-hole injection in the gate oxide of MOS structures

In this paper, we present a unified model for electron and hole transport and injection into the gate oxide of MOS devices based on our Monte Carlo simulator BeBoP. The injection problem has been tackled by means of a simplified analytical solution of the Schrodinger equation across the Si-SiO/sub 2/ gate barrier, that leads to a direct calculation of the transfer probability from Si into the gate (P/sub Si-G/). With appropriate choice of parameters the model reproduces a wide set of experiments sensitive to low and high energy transport phenomena, including for the first time homogeneous hole injection data. <<ETX>>
Untangling the controls on bedload transport in a wood‐loaded river with RFID tracers and linear mixed modelling

Bedload transport is a fundamental process by which coarse sediment is transferred through landscapes by river networks and may be well described stochastically by distributions of grain step length and rest time obtained through tracer studies. To date, none of these published tracer studies have specifically investigated the influence of large wood in the river channel on sediment transport dynamics, limiting the applicability of stochastic sediment transport models in these settings. Large wood is a major component of many forested rivers and is increasing due to anthropogenic ‘Natural Flood Management’ (NFM) practices. This study aims to investigate and model the influence of large wood on grain‐scale bedload transport.
Prostate MRI: Is Endorectal Coil Necessary?—A Review

To assess the necessity of endorectal coil use in 3 Tesla (T) prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a literature review comparing the image quality and diagnostic performance with an endorectal coil (ERC) and a without endorectal coil (NERC), with a phased array coil or a wearable perineal coil (WPC), was performed. A PubMed search of 3T prostate MRI using an endorectal coil for studies published until 31 July 2021 was performed. A total of 14 studies comparing 3T prostate MRI with and without endorectal coil use were identified. The quality scores and diagnostic performances were recorded for each study. In total, five studies compared image quality; five studies compared quality and performance; and four studies compared performance of detection, size of detected lesions, accuracy of cancer localization, and aggressiveness/staging. The use of an endorectal coil improved image quality with a higher overall signal to noise ratio, posterior and peripheral zone signal to noise ratio, high b-value attenuation diffusion coefficient (ADC) signal to noise ratio, and contrast to noise ratio. Endorectal coil use improved subjective image quality for anatomic detail on T2 weighted images (T2WI) and diffusion weighted images (DWI). Endorectal coil use had less motion artifact on DWI than non-endorectal coil use, but produced a higher occurrence of other artifacts on DWI. Endorectal coils had higher sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV) in the detection of overall and index lesions, as well as smaller and less aggressive lesions, missing fewer and smaller lesions than non-endorectal coils. Endorectal coils had higher sensitivity than non-endorectal coils in localizing and staging lesions. Endorectal coils improved quantitative and qualitative image quality and diagnostic performance in the detection of smaller and less aggressive cancers in 3T prostate MRI.
