Authors: Nedoshytko Iryna , Bilovus Lesia , Vilkova Teofilia
Published: June 2024

The article discusses the possibilities of use the newest web-technologies to optimize the multi-vector work of libraries, not only implementation of their accumulative and information functions in the Internet environment.
It is emphasized that the late 90s of the last century were marked by the emergence and spread of blogs, and in the early 2000s they were transformed into social media, which became an integral part of everyone's life. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the increase in the number of blogging platforms, this type of activity has gained popularity, and the number of users and their activity in the online environment is growing every day.
It is proved that the use of new media in library activities, such as blogs and social media, helps libraries to interact with their readers. Due to the internet-platforms libraries can improve their services, which include the following: processing reference requests, assistance in finding materials, formulating advice on choosing information and search strategies, and round-the-clock information and communication services.
It is found that the use of social media will help to involve library users in discussion and events. For example, blogs can be used to clarify various library issues; to expand professional contacts; to build a positive image; to encourage users to become partners and sponsors of the library; to organize and conduct seminars, workshops, e-exhibitions; to inform about new acquisitions; to announce events, organize surveys and contests; to review books; to publish lists of debtors, and to earn money using targeted advertising.
An outstanding sugar manufacturer of Ukraine
Authors: Doiar Larysa
Published: June 2024

The presented article is a continuation of the author's previous research on the history of agriculture in Ukraine — a production industry that for centuries has determined the role and place of the Ukrainian ethnic group in the global production of food products and, without exaggeration, is the face of our subjectivity. This survey is dedicated to the bright memory of the outstanding organizer of the sugar industry of Ukraine, a prolific scientist and a productive industrialist Oleksandr Semenovych Zaits (1929—2011). Considering the personalization of the past as one of the most priority areas of modern historical science, the author set herself the goal of researching the life and work path of a person who made every effort for the economic development of his native land. Relying on the fundamental biographical work, prepared and published on the initiative of the grateful children (son and daughter) of Oleksandr Semenovych, the author actualized the problem of the personal factor in the national development of Ukraine: Oleksandr Semenovych the hare is an example of conscientious service to the state and one's own people, a figure worthy of imitation and education of future generations. Applying the method of content analysis, the author processed the printed material available at the Book Chamber of Ukraine (books, magazines, newspapers, printed publications, etc.), which is tangential to the given topic and significantly deepens the announced goal of personalizing the historical past of Ukraine. The scientific achievement of the presented article is the enrichment of the introduced personality of O. Zaytsia with several previously unused bibliographic positions. In general, general and special monographic works, dictionary, materials of scientific and industrial periodicals, newspaper publications and printed posters and leaflets were involved in the work on this investigation.

The Challenges of Colonial Historiography to the Study of African and Indian History up to the Second Half of the 20th Century
Authors: Shuaibu Ibrahim , Bem Japhet Audu
Published: June 2024

Colonial historiography has been an ineffective tool in the study colonialism both in African and Indian history. It is a major flaw in the thinking of the Eurocentric writers about the development process of the history of the societies of Africa and India. This development has formed the subject-matter and focus of the paper. The paper’s findings show that contrary to the western basis of history which denigrated the African and Indian past, the development and expression of African and Indian historiography as an ideological wing of nationalist struggle laid a crucial foundation for the reconstruction of their past. The most significant change in the historiography during the second half of the 20th century is the use of discourse and locally grounded narratives to question older paradigms of historical understanding of African and Indian historiography.The paper has advanced the argument that historical consciousness was a factor in Indian and African societies in the pre-colonial period and the tools for its expression grew and expanded only with the different epochs of European activities on the continent, as well as the events of the post-colonial period. This paper used the historical research method, the multidisciplinary approach, intellectual perspectives of history, and secondary sources to achieve the objectives of its focal point. It concludes that African historians must continue to be rigorous in establishing independent views in their writing of the African past.

Published: June 2024

Este artículo ofrece una reflexión sobre la peste  de mediados del siglo XVII que afectó a la isla de Cerdeña (situada en el centro del Mar Mediterráneo), donde se pone de relieve un analisis de ciertos elementos que marcaron la difusión de la enfermedad en todo el territorio sardo. Aqui se evidencian los metodos de control para la epidemia de peste, desde las politicas publicas: donde se conformo un grupo de expertos, los cuales fueron obligados a negar la existencia de la enfermedad, cuando la muerte ya no pudo esconderse se organizaron patrullajes armados para impedir que escaparan de la villa, tambien se inciaron cuarentenas en las iglesias rurales y se indico destruccion de las casas de los infectados; en la económia: pertenecer a la nobleza condicionaba una alimentacion de calidad, asi como acceso a servicios medicos y menor grado de contagio, asi mismo se procuro la seguridad alimentaria como prioridad en salud; la religion con su cultura: muestra que el origen de la peste era un castigo de dios, el cual se combatia con rezo y penitencia, y el agua caliente para limpieza personal estaba contraindicado. La relacion de esta epidemia no dista mucho de lo que se presento en la pandemia de COVID-19, por lo cual debemos reconocer la historicidad del proceso en salud, enfermedad, atencion, cuidado, muerte, para las proximas pandemias.

Characterizing the Performance of Keke Emitter in Drip Irrigation System
Authors: Isa Abubakar Sani , Abdullahi Abubakar Sadiq
Published: June 2024

Rural farmers in Nigeria barely meet the cost of drip irrigation equipment because it is expensive. They resort to acquiring polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, medi – emitters, syringes needles, etc., as improvised emitters and install them in irrigation farms. This study uses a bicycle (Keke) air pressure valve as an emitter on the drip irrigation system. Rural farmers use air pressure valves to inflate their bicycle tubes, which is affordable and generally acceptable. The calibration and performance evaluation of the Keke emitter was done on sandy loam soil. The experiment involved using the Keke emitter to discharge water at 5, 10 and 20 minutes. Discharges were selected randomly and calculated using the volumetric method. It was observed that variations in flow volumes along the laterals are minor.  For the 5, 10 and 20 minutes of applications, the average discharge was calculated to be 5.67, 10.48 and 20.3 Lh-1, respectively. Correspondingly, the uniformity coefficient was found to be 96.8%, 97.0% and 98.4%, and distribution uniformity was 97.4%, 98.1% and 98.9%, respectively. The uniformity coefficient was high, which describes the emitter as proper for discharging water into the field. This is a new dimension in economic drip irrigation technology and exploiting cheap materials in drip irrigation systems, especially for rural farmers in Nigeria and beyond.

Published: June 2024

The global plastic waste crisis poses a significant environmental challenge, requiring innovative and sustainable solutions for its management. This study explores the integration of various plastic wastes (PP, MLP, LDPE, and crumb rubber) into asphalt mixtures. It conducts a comparative assessment of four distinct plastic materials by analyzing their Marshall properties. Laboratory experiments demonstrated that including various plastics at an approximate rate
of 8% significantly reduces the demand for virgin bitumen in asphalt mixes, indicating the potential for bitumen replacement by waste plastic to some extent. Plastic waste is added to hot aggregates, resulting in coated aggregates. When used in the asphalt mix, plastic-coated aggregates (PCA) exhibit better binding properties, enhanced resistance to moisture damage, Marshall stability, and density. Additionally, incorporating PCA in road construction leads to a reduction in carbon emissions. This paper promotes a circular economy, reducing the environmental impact, i.e., carbon footprint of plastic waste, while improving the quality and longevity of our road networks.

Charge Control of ESS In SEIG By Using MPPT And SoC
Authors: - Y.D. KEERTHI , - D. MAHESH KUMAR , - P. ANIL KUMAR
Published: June 2024

In recent times, renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and micro-hydro have seen increased usage for electric energy generation. This paper presents a wind-based standalone hybrid energy system designed for remote area power applications. There is still significant growth potential in the field of renewable energy resources in the coming years.

With the renewed interest in wind turbines as an alternative energy source, induction generators are being considered as a viable alternative to well-developed synchronous generators due to their lower cost, inherent ruggedness, and simplicity in operation and maintenance. Induction generators can generate power at varying speeds, making them suitable for self-excited standalone (isolated) mode and grid-connected mode, supplementing local loads alongside synchronous generators. Extensive research is being conducted to select an appropriate generator for standalone Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS). To ensure a continuous power supply, suitable storage technology is used as a backup.

Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) play a vital role in wind power applications by controlling wind power plant output and providing auxiliary services to the power system, thereby enabling increased integration of wind power. A charge controller for the battery bank, based on turbine Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) and battery State of Charge (SoC), is developed to ensure controlled charging and discharging of the battery. The mechanical safety of the WECS is assured using a pitch control technique. Both control schemes are integrated, and their efficiency is validated through various load and wind profiles in MATLAB/SIMULINK.
Safeguarding Authenticity in the Digital Realm: a Holistic Approach Integrating Content Provenance, Secure Watermarking, and Transparent Labeling to Combat Deepfakes
Authors: - Ashutosh Pal Singh
Published: June 2024

A previously unheard-of threat to the veracity of information shared across multiple platforms and the integrity of digital material is the emergence of deepfakes, or synthetic media created using sophisticated AI techniques. In order to counter deepfakes, this study suggests a triadic system called Veritas that smoothly integrates three essential pillars: transparent labelling, strong watermarking, and validated content. The framework determines the authenticity and provenance of digital media by utilising state-of-the-art techniques for content authentication, including blockchain-based provenance tracking and digital signatures. Enough watermarking algorithms are used to implant visible or invisible traces so that possible modifications may be traced back and detected. Furthermore, consumers are informed of the existence of artificial or modified material through the use of obvious signs provided by standardised labelling systems. After thorough assessments, Veritas' effectiveness and performance are proven, strengthening digital trust and opening the door to a more transparent and safe digital environment.

Authors: - Amit Kumar
Published: June 2024

This study investigates the impact of urban and rural environments on social support and wellbeing among the elderly population in Patna, India. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, we conducted surveys and in-depth interviews with 400 elderly individuals, equally distributed between urban and rural settings. Our analysis reveals significant differences in the levels and types of social support available to the elderly in these distinct environments. Urban elderly benefit from better access to healthcare and social services but report higher levels of loneliness and stress. In contrast, rural elderly experience stronger community bonds and familial support, though they face challenges due to limited healthcare infrastructure and economic resources. The study highlights the critical role of social networks in enhancing wellbeing and underscores the need for tailored interventions to address the unique challenges faced by elderly populations in both urban and rural areas. Recommendations include the development of community-based programs to strengthen social support systems and improve access to essential services, aiming to enhance the overall wellbeing of Patna's elderly residents. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the interplay between environment, social support, and wellbeing, providing a foundation for policymakers to create more inclusive and supportive communities for the aging population.

Cost-Effective Fabrication of c-Si Solar Cell Using Transition Metal Oxides Interfaces
Authors: - Bhoora Ram , - Dr. Shrikant Verma
Published: June 2024

For global energy supply and demand to be reached, non-traditional energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) technology are crucial. With a market share of 95% and an efficiency range of 20 to 25%, crystalline solar cells (c-Si) based on aluminium back surface (Al-B.S.F.) and passivated emitter and rear contact (P.E.R.C.) exhibit efficiency levels of 20% and 25%, respectively. The SHJ solar cells have passivation of i:a-si:H and doped a-Si:H, enabling 26.7% efficiency; however, the fabrication process is complicated for doped a-Si:H contacts and emits hazardous gases, and energy losses from parasitic absorption and Auger recombination are still present. Transition metal oxides (TMOs) contacts as an alternate can be fabricated at low temperatures and have more economical, opto electrical, and other properties that can reduce energy losses. TMOs act as carrier-selective contacts, allowing one kind of charge carrier to pass while obstructing the other. TMOs with double-asymmetric heterocontact with an efficiency of 24.83% have been attained by c-Si solar cells and a potential of
above 28.4%. By adjusting TMOs deposition thickness, assessing passivation quality, and measuring Voc, Isc, and FF using a solar simulator with Keithley, the I-V measurement, and different spectroscopy, it is possible to experimentally choose the TMOs material and tune it with c-Si for good passivation. By reducing manufacturing costs and establishing a levelized cost of energy (LCOE), solar power becomes more competitive and economically viable.

Published: June 2024

Both urban and rural life depend heavily on the handling and collection of waste. A poorly planned and inefficient waste collection system raises costs and harms the general public’s health. The existing method of collecting conventional
garbage is neither the best or most efficient. By enabling intelligent, adequate, and self-sufficient systems, the Internet of Things, or IoT, has proven important in boosting human well-being. Thus, the paper suggests an Internet of Things based efficient waste collection system with smart bins. This selects the bins that require emptying at the beginning of each garbage collection cycle and tracks them in real time.0ur waste segregation system can be sent straight for processing with the help of our affordable, user-friendly Automatic Waste Segregator. The garbage will be divided into three categories: dry, wet, and
metallic waste. Hardware design incorporates machine learning based algorithms to identify plastic garbage. The project also intends to incorporate an Internet of Things communication system to notify the waste collection authorities when the waste container is filled. The ultrasonic waste level sensor and the esp32 wall board, which regulate system functions, make up the
proposed system. In order to ensure that the trash gets picked up right away, it can also send an IoT-based warning message to the municipality when the trash can is almost full or full. Reducing human resources and efforts in addition to enhancing the Smart City vision is a key aim of this project. In addition, it is expected that the efficiency of solid waste management will be improved.

Most cleaning agents can visibly remove bloodstains from substrates like fabric, but sensitive preliminary tests can still detect the presence of blood in such cases. There have been many studies conducted to compare the efficiency of preliminary tests to detect blood from fabric washed with detergents that are commonly available in the market. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of Kastle-Meyer and Luminol in detecting bloodstains on laundered fabrics. The research involved conducting controlled experiments where bloodstains were intentionally applied to various types of fabrics (Cotton, Linen, Polyester, Rayon, and Satin Polyester) and dried for 12h and 24h. Subsequently, the fabrics were laundered using standard procedures with and without laundry agents (Ariel detergent powder, Sodium Tetraborate – Borax powder and Sodium hypochlorite – Bleaching solution) to simulate real-life scenarios. The results were then analyzed to determine the accuracy and reliability of each method in detecting blood traces post-laundering. The outcome is that Kastle-Meyer gives better results with stains that were washed earlier but significantly shows a reduction in performance when the drying period is increased. Whereas Luminol gives stable performance for stains dried for longer. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the most effective method for detecting bloodstains on laundered fabrics, which can have significant implications for forensic investigations and criminal cases.

Authors: - Vipan
Published: June 2024

In the phase of interdependence, no country can afford to live in isolation. Therefore, foreign policy becomes a crucial instrument to operationalise objectives of nation-states in the international arena. There are many trends which can be identified with the post-cold war scenario. The dominant trend is that of globalization. The world today is being referred to as ‘global village’. The world is becoming a more integrated economic community that it was ever before, supported by the communication revolution. India and its neighbours have many things in common, particularly their political history. Bangladesh emerged on the world map as sovereign independent country in December 1971. India’s role in the liberation of Bangladesh strengthened bilateral ties between the two nations. The study is an attempt to understand the relationship between India and Bangladesh from 1971 to 2010. This paper first provides a brief overview of India-Bangladesh relations followed by discussing the change in their relationship in detail.
