Housing Expenditure and Childbirth in the United Kingdom
Authors: Buh Brian
Published: June 2024

Previous literature looking at regional property prices found higher housing costs reduce affordability and are negatively associated with childbirth. On the other hand, (soon-to-be) parents are often willing to pay more to get better quality housing to pursue fertility desires. Thus, the relationship at the micro level incorporates both affordability and the willingness to pay. The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between micro level housing expenditure and the likelihood of first, second, and third birth in the United Kingdom (UK). This paper finds that higher housing expenditure is positively associated with childbirth across birth order. In parallel, a higher housing share of income is negatively associated with childbirth. These results suggest that couples anticipating childbirth are willing to pay larger amounts to pursue their fertility desires. Simultaneously, a higher share of household income going to housing reduces affordability, making having a(nother) child unfeasible. Using household level housing costs illuminates the affordability/willingness to pay trade-off. The relationship is stronger in households in which women are not in paid work. This indicates that women’s labor market participation is intertwined with housing costs and childbirth.
Embracing Uncertainty: John Keats's Negative Capability and its Romantic Legacy
Authors: Adhikary Ramesh Prasad
Published: June 2024

This research paper delves into John Keats's concept of Negative Capability, a pivotal idea in the Romantic literary tradition, which emphasizes the poet's ability to remain in uncertainties and mysteries without the irritable reaching after fact and reason. Originating from Keats’s letter to his brothers in 1817, this concept challenges the Enlightenment’s rationalist approach, advocating for a more intuitive and imaginative understanding of human experience. The primary objective of this study is to comprehensively analyze Keats’s articulation of Negative Capability, its manifestation in his poetry, and its broader implications within the Romantic tradition and subsequent literary movements. This study enhances the understanding of Romantic literature, offers insights into Keats's poetic philosophy, and highlights the enduring influence of Negative Capability on modern literary theory and creative practices. The research employs a qualitative methodology grounded in close reading, historical analysis, and comparative analysis. Primary texts include Keats’s letters and major poems, while secondary sources encompass critical essays and scholarly works on Keats and Romanticism. The analysis reveals that Negative Capability is central to Keats’s major works, such as "Ode on a Grecian Urn," "Ode to a Nightingale," and "To Autumn." These poems exemplify Keats's embrace of ambiguity, beauty, and transience, reflecting his resistance to rational explanations and his celebration of the unknown and the mysterious. The study also identifies the concept’s influence on later literary movements, particularly Modernism and Postmodernism, which similarly grapple with themes of uncertainty and existential doubt. John Keats’s Negative Capability represents a profound acceptance of life’s uncertainties and the mysteries of artistic creation. This study underscores its significance in Keats's work and its lasting impact on the literary landscape, reaffirming the importance of embracing ambiguity and the transformative power of art.
Navigating the Complexities of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) in Nepal
Authors: Pokharel Arjun Prasad
Published: June 2024

This research explores the intricate dynamics surrounding Nepal's involvement in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), positioned amidst the strategic interests of China and the United States. Nepal's historical foreign policy, characterized by selective isolationism and international engagement, has been shaped by its geostrategic location between the two global powers, often likened to a "yam between two boulders." The BRI, launched by China in 2013, aims to bolster connectivity and infrastructure across Asia, Africa, and Europe, influencing Nepal through substantial investments and geopolitical alignments. Conversely, the MCC, initiated by the U.S. in 2017, seeks to enhance Nepal's economic stability and development, albeit amid perceptions of strategic rivalry with China's regional influence. This study employs qualitative analysis to evaluate the implications of these initiatives on Nepal's sovereignty, stability, and strategic positioning. It addresses the strategic challenges of managing Nepal's relationships with China, India, and the U.S. while maintaining its policy of non-alignment, offering insights into navigating the complexities of international collaborations in a rapidly evolving geopolitical landscape.

Authors: Pokhrel Lal Mani , Ghanghas Seema
Published: June 2024

This study examines the effects of inflation on jewelry consumers in Nepalgunj, Nepal, using a descriptive research design. The research aims to understand how inflation affects purchasing power, identify coping strategies, assess the impact on demand, and explore mitigation measures. The findings reveal that 70% of respondents believe middle-class individuals are most affected by inflation, leading to reduced jewelry affordability. Additionally, 30% of respondents agree that people buy less jewelry nowadays, and 76% agree that customers opt for substitute products as gifts instead of jewelry. The study suggests that inflation significantly impacts the jewelry industry, reducing consumer purchasing power and altering spending behaviors. To navigate these challenges, businesses in the jewelry sector must adopt strategic measures, such as price adjustments, value emphasis, and efficient sourcing practices. The findings provide valuable insights for policymakers, economists, and businesses in the jewelry industry. The study's implications include the need for policymakers to consider the impact of inflation on the jewelry industry and its consumers, for economists to develop models that better predict consumer behavior during inflation, and for businesses to adopt strategic measures to mitigate the effects of inflation. Overall, the study highlights the importance of understanding the effects of inflation on jewelry consumers and the need for stakeholders to take proactive measures to address these challenges.

Published: June 2024

An uncomfortable foot ailment called plantar fasciitis is brought on by an inflammation of the plantar fascia. When this band of tissue is overworked or overextended, plantar fasciitis develops. This results in tiny rips in the fascia's fibers, particularly where it connects to the heel bone. This study set out to determine how much the nurses at the Civil Service Hospital in Kathmandu knew about plantar fasciitis and how common it was. At the Civil Service Hospital in Kathmandu, 58 nurses participated in a descriptive cross-sectional research. Data were gathered using a self-administered questionnaire and the windlass test. SPSS version 20 was used to analyze the data, which included frequency and percentage using a descriptive statistical approach. The results showed that majority of respondents (53.4%) of nurses were age group of 18 to 25 years. Maximum respondents (93.1%) had normal BMI, maximum (46.6%) had 1 to 4 years work experience and majority of respondents (74.1%) worn flats during duty hours. Out of 58 respondents (56.9%) had poor knowledge, (29.3%) satisfactory and (13.8%) had good knowledge regarding plantar fasciitis with positive prevalence of windlass test (63.80%) and (36.2%) had negative windlass test. In the present study, it is concluded that majority of the respondents had (56.9%) poor knowledge, (29.3%) satisfactory and (13.8%) had good knowledge regarding plantar fasciitis with positive prevalence of windlass test (63.80%) and (36.2%) had negative windlass test, which means majority have plantar fasciitis.

Violence- A Shared Experience of Colored Women
Authors: Chapagaee Rajendra Prasad
Published: June 2024

Violence reproduces the system of aggression and carries emotive states of individuals. Power and violence are interrelated. The definition of violence differs according to the definitions of power and politics. It gets disclosure according to its relation with their attachment with the social system and human relations. All forms of violence have short- and long-term negative effects on mental, physical and spiritual well-being. Ritual legitimizes the violence with the notion of death that is ever present in any sacrificial ritual. Women of color have to endure different types of violence. Psychological and spiritual violence cannot be seen and easily be measured for it is the matter of personal feeling and experience. Black women have to endure violence in their own home, their culture and general society. They find themselves suspended spiritually, culturally, economically and psychologically carrying the burden of multiple fold repression as black women. They are doubly repressed as being black in racial society and being women in patriarchal society. Racial, ritual and sexual violence, repression and resistance constitute black experience as a part and parcel of colored women of American life

Актуальність даної статті обумовлена необхідністю удосконалення математичних моделей польоту твердих тіл сферичної і циліндричної форми таподальшого розвитку методів дослідження їх балістичних траєкторій.
Метою статті є побудова моделі польоту твердого тіла сферичної та циліндричної форми у просторі з урахуванням різних варіантів моделювання сили лобового опору повітря.
Проведено дослідження балістичних траєкторій польоту твердого тіла з моделюванням лобового опору повітря лінійною залежністю при малих швидкостях (опір Стокса) та квадратичною — при великих швидкостях (опір Ньютона). Математична модель задачі побудована на основі другого закону Ньютона та представлена у вигляді диференціальних рівнянь руху тіла в проекціях наосікоординат. Побудова розв’язку для випадку квадратичної залежності сили лобового опору повітря має особливість врахування напрямку польоту тіла. Для фази підйому тіла на максимальну висоту врахування сили лобового опору повітря зменшує дальність польоту та збільшує її на фазі спуску.
Проведено дослідження траєкторії польоту твердого тіла циліндричної з квадратичним опором повітря з різними кутами кидання та початковими швидкостями та побудовано параболоїд безпеки. За результатами дослідження було встановлено, що основними параметрами впливу на дальність польоту являються величина початкової швидкості польоту твердого тіла та значення кута кидання. Також визначено, що для кожного випадку дальності польоту меншої максимально досяжної існує дві траєкторії польоту з різними значеннями кута кидання.
 
В подальших дослідження необхідно побудувати моделі та провести дослідження балістичних траєкторій із урахуваннямвпливу атмосферних та погодних умов.

Abstract
In recent decades, progressions in care of health have increased the average lifespan, resulting in an increase in old age population. Unfortunately, this has led to an increase in periods of health problems or disabilities, and multiple diseases that associated with aging are responsible for the largest health problems in the majority of developing nations. Many anti-aging approaches such as healthy life styles and medical therapies aimed for reducing the prevalence of bad health conditions and the age associated disease as Alzheimer disease, cardiovascular disease, renal impairment, and cancer. Grapes, peanuts, and blueberries are just a few examples of the many foods that contain resveratrol, numerous reports have shown its importance in antiaging therapy that decreases oxidative stress, lowers inflammation, enhances mitochondrial activity and controls apoptosis. Throughout this review, we will describe the possible antiaging mechanisms of resveratrol and its effect on extension of life span and on many aging-related diseases.

Rethinking the Concept of Al-Saadah (Happiness) in Light of the Quranic Istikhlaf Framework
Authors: Hidayah Wan Ismail  , Abdelaziz Berghout
Published: June 2024

This article analyses the Quranic Istikhlaf framework and its impact on redefining the notion of Al-Saadah and its different components. To rejuvenate the methods of understanding the Qur'an and implementing it in our present situation, it is essential to develop thorough and ingenious frameworks that are both unique and applicable to our current specific circumstances. This article aims at presenting the Istikhlaf framework as a guiding outline for revitalising our comprehension of the profound Quranic methodologies and teachings. Next, utilise the framework to redefine the concept of Al-Saadah. The article used an analytical descriptive method to investigate the degree to which the Quranic Istikhlaf framework can offer a more profound understanding of the idea of Al-Saadah, which is translated into English as happiness. This paper examines the different sources and content pertaining to Istikhlaf and Al-Saadah to construct the Istikhlaf framework. The article shows that there are various methodologies for studying Al-Saadah, depending on the different perspectives taken, such as religious, psychological, sociological, philosophical, cultural, economic, environmental and others. The proposed Quranic Istikhlaf framework offers a comprehensive approach to Al-Saadah by examining the four dimensions (4D) analysis: 1) the relationship with God, 2) the relationship with oneself, 3) the relationship with others, and 4) the relationship with nature and the universe. The article concluded that this framework integrates the concepts of religion, holistic man as a vicegerent, society as the centre of human civilisation and umran, and the environment and nature as key aspects in achieving Al-Saadah. It also emphasises the four aspects of Al-Saadah namely, the inner, the outer, the Dunya (worldly) and the Akhirah (hereafter). The article suggests doing a comprehensive analysis of the Quranic Istikhlaf model and utilising it to examine and elucidate the discourse, methodologies, and implementation of Al-Saadah approaches and programs in both individual and social contexts.

Kültürler, tarih boyunca gelişerek büyümüş ve evrilmiştir. Teknolojinin hayatımıza girmesiyle birlikte, bir milletin özünü oluşturan gelenekler ve değerler dönüşmüş, ancak Hindistan, kendi öz kültür ve geleneklerinden kopmamıştır. Toplum, bir ülkenin kültürü, tarihi, insanları, dini ve dili gibi birçok dalından beslenir. Bu nedenle, Hindistan’ın zengin ve karmaşık kültürünü anlamak için bu farklı alanlarda derinlemesine bir bilgiye ihtiyaç vardır.
Hindistan, tarih boyunca birçok istilaya uğramış olmasına rağmen, bu farklı kültürleri kucaklayarak daha da zengin bir medeniyetin temelini atmıştır. İstilaların etkisiyle Hindistan toplumu, sadece dışarıdan gelen etkileri absorbe etmekle kalmamış, aynı zamanda bu etkileri kendi öz kültürüyle birleştirerek benzersiz bir kimlik geliştirmiştir. Hint toplumu, tarih boyunca farklı inançlar, gelenekler ve yaşam tarzlarıyla iç içe geçmiştir. Bu da Hindistan’ın kültürel çeşitliliğini ve zenginliğini artırmıştır. Bu durum, Hindistan’ın her bir bölgesinin kendine özgü bir kültüre ve yaşam tarzına sahip olmasına yol açmıştır. Kuzey Hindistan’da yaşayanlar, örneğin, Hint tarihinin eski dönemlerinden kalma gelenekleri koruyarak yaşamlarını sürdürürken, Güney Hindistan’da yaşayanlar farklı bir kültürel mirasa sahiptir. Bu zenginlik ve çeşitlilik, Hindistan’ın tarihsel ve kültürel dokusunu derinleştirir ve ülkeyi dünya çapında benzersiz bir destinasyon hâline getirir.
Bu araştırmada, kültürün tanımı üzerinde durulmuş, Hint kültürü ve geleneklerle ilişkisi incelenmiş ve Hindistan’ın kültürel içeriği ve geleneklerin özellikleri detaylı bir şekilde ele alınmıştır.

On a method for constructing the Green function of the Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation
Authors: Kalmenov T.Sh.
Published: June 2024

The study of boundary value problems for elliptic equations is of both theoretical and applied interest. A thorough study of model physical and spectral problems requires an explicit and effective representation of the problem solution. Integral representations of solutions of problems of differential equations are one of the main tools of mathematical physics. Currently, the integral representation of the Green function of classical problems for the Laplace equation for an arbitrary domain is obtained only in a two-dimensional domain by the Riemann conformal mapping method. Starting from the three-dimensional case, these classical problems are solved only for spherical sectors and for the regions lying between the faces of the hyperplane. The problem of constructing integral representations of general boundary value problems and studying their spectral problems remains relevant. In this work, using the boundary condition of the Newtonian (volume) potential and the spectral property of the potential of a simple layer, the Green function of the Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation was constructed.

Authors: Kosmakova M.T. , Khamzeyeva A.N. , Kasymova L.Zh.
Published: June 2024

In the article, the boundary value problem for the wave equation with a fractional time derivative and with initial conditions specified in the form of a fractional derivative in the Riemann-Liouville sense is solved. The definition domain of the desired function is the upper half-plane (x,t). To solve the problem, the Fourier transform with respect to the spatial variable was applied, then the Laplace transform with respect to the time variable was used. After applying the inverse Laplace transform, the solution to the transformed problem contains a two-parameter Mittag-Leffler function. Using the inverse Fourier transform, a solution to the problem was obtained in explicit form, which contains the Wright function. Next, we consider limiting cases of the fractional derivative’s order which is included in the equation of the problem.
Nutritional value of clariid catfish in the conditions of aquaculture in Ukraine
Authors: Bal Іvan
Published: June 2024

The nutritional value of raw materials is determined by a set of indicators that define the biological value of protein, lipids, mineral composition, and safety. Therefore, their investigation in the meat of one of Ukraine's aquaculture species – the clariid catfish – is relevant. The purpose of the study was to investigate the biological value of protein, lipids, mineral composition, and safety of catfish meat when grown in Ukraine and evaluate these indicators in accordance with the recommendations of FAO/WHO. The amino acid composition of the protein was determined by ion exchange liquid-column chromatography on an automatic analyser T 339 (Czech Republic); the fatty acid composition of lipids was determined on a gas chromatograph HRGC 5300 (“Carlo Erba”, Italy). The mineral composition of meat was investigated by atomic emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma; the content of heavy metals was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry. The study of the amino acid composition of the protein established the presence of all essential amino acids in an amount significantly exceeded in the ideal protein in accordance with FAO/WHO recommendations, which indicates a high biological value. The fatty acid composition of lipids is typical for freshwater fish and catfish lipids from other aquacultures. The biological value of catfish lipids is determined by the ratio of fatty acids of the ω-6/ω-3 families as 1.8:1.0 at the recommended value of 10:5, which indicates the possibility of using lipids of this fish as a source of especially deficient ω-3 fatty acids in the human diet. The low level of polyunsaturated fatty acids and the absence of essential fatty acids eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids gives the basis for developing the design of biologically valuable catfish meat products by enriching it with lipids from marine aquatic organisms. The practical significance of the findings is to obtain original data on the nutritional value of meat from one of the aquaculture species in Ukraine, determine the degree of satisfaction of the daily human need for its consumption, and develop recommendations for rational use

FROM RECOVERY TO CATASTROPHE
Authors: Lieberman Ben
Published: June 2024

Historians of the stabilization phase of Weimar Germany tend to identify German recovery after the First World War with the struggle to revise reparations and control hyperinflation. Focusing primarily on economic aspects is not sufficient, however, the author argues; the financial burden of recovery was only one of several major causes of reaction against the republic. Drawing on material from major German cities, he is able to trace the emergence of strong local activism and of comprehensive and functional policies of recovery on the municipal level which enjoyed broad political backing. Ironically, these same programs that created consensus also contained the potential for destabilization: they unleashed intense debate over the needs of the consumersand the purpose and extent of public spending, and with that of government intervention more generally, which accelerated the fragmentation of bourgeois politics, leading to the final destruction of the Weimar Republic.
AT HOME IN THE HILLS
Authors: Gray John N.
Published: June 2024

To most outsiders, the hills of the Scottish Borders are a bleak and foreboding space - usually made to represent the stigmatized Other, Ad Finis, by the centers of power in Edinburgh, London, and Brussels. At a time when globalization seems to threaten our sense of place, people of the Scottish borderlands provide a vivid case study of how the being-in-place is central to the sense of self and identity. Since the end of the thirteenth century, people living in the Scottish Border hills have engaged in armed raiding on the frontier with England, developed capitalist sheep farming in the newly united kingdom of Great Britain, and are struggling to maintain their family farms in one of the marginal agricultural rural regions of the European Community. Throughout their history, sheep farmers living in these hills have established an abiding sense of place in which family and farm have become refractions of each other. Adopting a phenomenological perspective, this book concentrates on the contemporary farming practices - shepherding, selling lambs and rams at auctions - as well as family and class relations through which hill sheep fuse people, place, and way of life to create this sense of being-at-home in the hills.
SUBSISTENCE-SETTLEMENT SYSTEMS AND INTERSITE VARIABILITY IN THE MOROISO PHASE OF THE EARLY JOMON PERIOD OF JAPAN
Authors: Habu Junko
Published: June 2024

This book examines the settlement patterns and intersite variability in lithic assemblages of Early Jomon (ca. 5000 BP) hunter-gatherers in Japan. A model is proposed that links regional settlement patterns and intersite lithic assemblage variability to residential mobility. The results of this study suggest that the Early Jomon people were not sedentary, as previously assumed, but instead moved their residential basis seasonally. The implications of this result are discussed in the context of the development of hunter-gatherer cultural complexity in general and the course of Japanese prehistory in particular.

Published: June 2024

This article examines new cylindrically anisotropic materials, including winding composite materials reinforced with various fiber, and a mathematical solution of the fourth-order partial differential equation with two variables in polar coordinates.

Purpose: Ther aim of this work is to study anisotropy properties of composite materials with cylindrical anisotropy.

Methodology/approach: Foe a solution, equations are translated into Cartesian coordinates, and stress functions are used as a sum of polynomials. As a result of the solution, two relations are obtained between the elastic constants in the main direction of anisotropy, i.e., elasticity parameters. These parameters are important to determine the mechanical properties of anisotropic material.

Research findings: New high-strength composite materials are improved to apply in new technologies for building design and construction, high-strength structures are obtained using synthetic composite materials.

Originality/value: Elastic constants for cylindrically anisotropic materials represent an innovative approach to determine the properties of composite materials with a flat anisotropy scheme, which make it easier and more efficient to determine elasticity parameters and strength in an arbitrary direction of coordinate axes.
Influence of thermal treatment on mechanical properties of pine wood with regard to prime cost
Authors: Volokitin G. G. , Ustinova M. V. , Cheremnykh V. A.
Published: June 2024

Currently, it is relevant to create new and modify existing building materials in order to improve their physical, mechanical and operational properties. Wood is one of the common building materials. In order to improve the service life of wooden structures and products, it is necessary to protect them from negative factors. The most eco-friendly is thermal treatment. As an alternative to thermal modification in the hot steam/gas environment and wood burning, it is proposed to use the surface treatment with low-temperature plasma. To determine the possibility of using this type of treatment, it is necessary to study the plasma flow effect on mechanical properties of wood. However, its prime cost restricts the application of this method.

The paper presents results of compressive strength testing along the fiber for pine samples before and after the treatment with low-temperature plasma and gas burner. Both methods have no effect on the compressive strength. It is shown that the treatment cost is significantly lower than that with the gas burner. Comparatively low cost of the plasma treatment is provided by the high process performance, which, in turn, is achieved through a significant value of specific heat flows.
