Authors: Pei Shuo , Miao Jiaqi , Song Shengrong
Published: November 2024

Vibration control in cantilever systems is a critical challenge in various engineering applications, where unwanted vibrations can lead to structural fatigue, reduced performance, and potential failure. This study investigates the effects of integrating biomechanical and impact-responsive metamaterials into cantilever systems to mitigate vibration transmission. The metamaterials, characterized by their adaptive stiffness and energy-absorbing properties, are strategically embedded in key structural components such as the arms, joints, and base. Through experimental analysis, this work assesses the reduction in vibration amplitude, shifts in natural frequency, enhanced damping capacity, energy absorption during impact, and strain reduction at critical points. The results show that the metamaterial-enhanced system achieves significant reductions in vibration amplitude, up to 40%, and increases in natural frequency by over 30%, minimizing the risk of resonance. Additionally, the damping ratio is improved by as much as 53%, while the energy absorption during impact is increased by up to 26%. Strain reduction at critical points reaches 24%, contributing to improved mechanical resilience. These findings demonstrate the potential of biomechanical and impact-responsive metamaterials in enhancing the dynamic performance of cantilever systems, offering a new approach to vibration mitigation in engineering applications.

Published: November 2024

The development of all sports requires a competent sports ecological environment. Pollution of the sports ecological environment greatly restricts people’s enthusiasm and interest in taking part in sports activities, and at the same time greatly affects people’s physical and mental health and hinders the development of sports. As people’s awareness of environmental pollution protection increases, it will certainly curb and alleviate the environmental pollution problem. Promote social harmony and sustainable development. Therefore, this paper will intuitively analyze the integration mechanism of sports development and ecological environmental protection based on artificial intelligence. After analysis, China’s research in related fields, sports and environmental engineering disciplines accounted for the largest proportion of 74.46%, and with the progress of sports events and environmental protection, the number of international publications in 2017 reached a maximum of 134. To a certain extent, this is linked to the Rio Olympics in Brazil the previous year. However, in the global research in this field, the number of published papers in the United States reached a maximum of 159, which opened a large gap with other countries.

Published: November 2024

The growing number of vehicles in major cities has posed significant challenges in parking lot management. Motorists often have difficulty finding empty parking slots quickly, which not only wastes time but also aggravates traffic congestion and increases air pollution. This research develops a Python-based smart parking system by utilizing the OpenCV library to detect the status of parking slots in real-time. The system uses a camera as the main sensor and processes the image using techniques such as grayscale, Gaussian blur, and adaptive threshold to identify the parking slot status, whether empty or occupied, with good accuracy. The parking slot coordinate data is stored in CSV format to ensure efficient data management. Experimental results with video recordings show that the system is able to operate well in various parking conditions. The system proved to be cost-effective and easy to implement, making it an ideal solution for parking managers who want to improve management efficiency without being burdened with high costs. This research offers a practical solution to help motorists and parking managers optimize parking space usage, reduce search time, and minimize negative impacts such as congestion and carbon emissions.
Integrated approaches in pediatric pharmacotherapy : the neonatal Göttingen minipig model for drug disposition in perinatal asphyxia and therapeutic hypothermia
Authors:   , Stroe Marina-Stefania
Published: November 2024

Pediatric drug therapy presents challenges due to the pronounced growth and development during early life stages, affecting drug response. Perinatal asphyxia (PA) is a condition in neonates often requiring therapeutic hypothermia (TH) and intensive care to reduce morbidity and mortality. Animal models, such as the neonatal Göttingen Minipig, are valuable for understanding the mechanisms of conditions and therapies. This study hypothesized that systemic hypoxia, as well as TH, affect drug disposition, including enzyme functionality. The primary hypothesis was that TH significantly decreases metabolic clearance (CL) in asphyxiated neonates, necessitating drug dosing adjustments. To address this, in vitro and in vivo data from neonatal Göttingen Minipigs will be used to develop a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to ensure accurate drug dosing for asphyxiated neonates. An experimental study was carried out to examine the pharmacokinetics of midazolam, fentanyl, phenobarbital, and topiramate under four conditions: therapeutic hypothermia (group TH), hypoxia (group H), hypoxia and therapeutic hypothermia (group H+TH), and controls (group C). Six healthy male Göttingen Minipigs, within 24 hours of birth per condition, were anesthetized for drug administration and blood sampling. Whole-body hypothermia was induced by lowering the body temperature to 33.5C, while systemic hypoxia was induced using a low-oxygen gas mixture. The gene and protein expression, as well as the activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes were evaluated using in vitro methods. The study confirmed the feasibility of conducting complex in vivo procedures in neonatal Göttingen Minipigs. Furthermore, a novel pig model of asphyxia was established. Fentanyl was mostly affected since TH led to a 66% decrease in CL and approximately a 3-fold longer half-life. The study also revealed TH impact on heart rate in neonatal Göttingen Minipigs, consistent with documented effects in human neonates. These effects are particularly important for high extraction ratio drugs like fentanyl, due to their dependence on liver blood flow for their subsequent metabolism. Additionally, the research provided insights into the influence of age, hypothermia, and hypoxia on CYP enzymes. The vitro studies revealed differences in CYP expression and activity between neonatal and adult Göttingen Minipigs, underscoring the role of maturation in drug metabolism. Additionally, adult liver microsomes exhibited a 36% reduction in CYP activity following in vitro hypothermia. Alterations in the expression of CYP3A29 and CYP2E1 occurred due to hypoxia in neonatal Göttingen Minipigs. Lastly, this PhD thesis underscores the importance of refining and updating PBPK models to improve its predictive accuracy and clinical relevance.
Development of nurses’ critical thinking skills: Implications for clinical practice
Authors: Sternberg Janet
Published: November 2024

Critical thinking skills of registered nurses are important to improve patient safety through recognition of an adverse change in a patient’s condition and initiation of appropriate action. The purpose of this study was to determine whether participation in case scenario simulation exercises significantly increased the critical thinking skills of registered nurses. The study used a simulation program developed by the American Association of Critical Care Nurses. Sixty registered nurses in an acute care hospital participated in the study. Although the results failed to indicate a significant statistical difference in the critical thinking skills of the registered nurses following completion of the assigned modules, limitations of the study may have adversely affected findings. Additional research is warranted to further explore the potential of using case-based simulation exercises to promote critical thinking skills in registered nurses. Wider implications include promoting an environment of continual learning to strengthen the critical thinking skills of staff. Implementation of case scenario simulation exercises may be an effective way to develop critical thinking skills and reduce incidences of registered nurses failing to rescue a patient when intervention is required. The actionable findings of this research may generate further studies to enhance the practice of nursing, improve patient safety and reduce the number of adverse events involving hospitalised patients.
Inclusive environments: Access to commercial property, goods and services — disability-specific access requirements
Authors: Tagg Adrian
Published: November 2024

It has been nearly 30 years since the introduction of the first bespoke legislation preventing discrimination against disabled people in accessing commercial property, goods and services. Despite the rise in public awareness of disability promoted by the Paralympics, a global financial crisis, austerity and the COVID-19 pandemic appear to have taken disability rights off both the political and social agendas. Research published in 2020 identified commercial value in providing a truly inclusive built environment and for commercial property owners as well as those delivering goods or services to seek opportunity over obligation in providing above-minimum access. In an attempt to challenge the notion of a ‘one size fits all’ approach to access, this paper analyses disability-specific access needs as well as unpick the term ‘reasonable adjustment’. The paper focuses primarily on the access to buildings and not the accessibility of actual service provision. The paper identifies that the complexity of disability, the wide-ranging symptoms of individual impairments and the prevalence of those with more than one condition validates a one-size approach to designing for disabled people. Furthermore, when comparing the delivery of best practice solutions to facilitate access, the paper demonstrates that the majority of the necessary adjustments are essential (critical) and not just reasonable. While this is based upon the experiential understanding of access challenges by disabled people, it is also worth noting that there exist significant challenges from a service provision perspective in proving an inclusive environment. Removing the existing physical barriers within the built environment may be difficult and costly, and may appear unreasonable for some smaller organisations. Despite this, however, there are a number of relatively low-cost, high-priority adjustments that can make a difference. These, along with more complex adjustments, mean it is necessary to adopt a balanced, pragmatic notion of compromise that facilitates access while still being commercially viable.

Authors: Abraham Feby , Clements Ross , Shea Chris
Published: November 2024

The healthcare landscape is increasingly complex, characterised by economic uncertainty, regulatory challenges and rising operational costs. This paper provides a strategic framework for healthcare leaders to navigate this challenging deal environment. Despite economic pressures, merger and acquisition (M&A) activities remain robust, driven by strategic considerations rather than pure expansion motives. Important trends include horizontal and vertical consolidation, innovative joint ventures, strategic partnerships and direct equity investments, all aimed at enhancing operational efficiency, expanding into emerging value pools, and fostering innovation. This paper also delves into the evolving transaction strategies within healthcare systems, highlighting the importance of programmatic capital allocation and structured innovation investments. It outlines the crucial factors for successful execution, such as modernising capital allocation; creating effective governance structures; and building capabilities to test, learn and scale innovations. By leveraging these strategies, healthcare systems can better position themselves for sustainable growth, improve patient outcomes and create value in an increasingly dynamic and competitive market.

Published: November 2024

Cosmic rays have been studied for over a century. In addition to investigating their fundamental properties, such as origin, composition, and acceleration mechanisms, some of the most important studies in the field involve the interaction of cosmic rays within the heliosphere, near-Earth space, and the immediate Earth’s environment. These areas have been of particular interest in recent years.One such type of study focuses on the modulation of cosmic rays by the solar magnetic field and the geomagnetic field in the heliosphere and Earth’s magnetosphere, respectively. Among other things, the study of these modulations allows for the indirect observation of solar events, which produce characteristic signatures in the interplanetary magnetic field.Another interesting aspect of cosmic ray physics involves the interactions of secondary cosmic rays, primarily the muon component, within Earth’s atmosphere. Precise models of these interactions allow for corrections for atmospheric effects to be made to the muon flux, increasing the sensitivity of Earth-based detectors. Additionally, these models can enable inversediagnostics of the atmosphere, potentially providing an additional technique for atmospheric sounding.Thus, precise monitoring of cosmic ray variations can serve as a proxy for measuring solar activity and variations in Earth’s atmosphere. This can be invaluable in situations where direct measurements are not available and can provide significant contributions to the study of space weather and Earth’s climate.

VLF radio signal propagation under severe stormy weather conditions
Authors: Kolarski Aleksandra
Published: November 2024

Due to the ongoing climate change, extreme weather events globally came to attention primarily since their more frequent occurrence, especially during the last decade. Severe stormy weather conditions and interrelated electrification processes in storm-bearing clouds are well known to get into relation with Earth’s ionosphere through a global electric circuit, forming in lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere coupling processes. Very Low Frequency (VLF, 3-30 kHz) radio- propagation, taking place within the Earth-ionosphere waveguide, is strongly under the influence of such conditions. Atmospheric electric discharges and related transient luminous events, common for severe stormy weather, through electric processes cause abrupt and intense changes in electrical properties of their surroundings. VLF signals, propagating sub- ionospherically, are strongly influenced by these regions of changed electric properties and undergo perturbations of distinct features, which can be used for studying related processes and phenomena, through a remote sensing approach. Characteristic perturbations observed on monitored VLF signals transmitted from USA, UK, Germany, Italy and France and registered in Belgrade, Serbia, related to stormy weatherconditions in region over Balkan Peninsula during the last decade, were examined, with main findings presented in this research.
Is demography a real problem for sustainability?
Authors: Šantic Danica
Published: November 2024

The impact of a growing population on the environment has been a focus of interest for many years. This is because of the well-known links between more people on the planet, growing wealth and consumption, and increasing environmental degradation. However, less attention has been paid to the environmental impacts of a stagnant and possibly shrinking population. The relationship between demographics and sustainability is fraught with significant contradictions. It appears that growth is critical to the planet because population is a major cause of environmentally damaging emissions, impacts, or resource use. However, halting population growth would accelerate population ageing, resulting in a decline in the labour force and an increase in the proportion of economically dependent people. Shifts in population trends have multiple impacts on the environment, but their nature and effects are often misunderstood or oversimplified, leading to population dynamics being ignored in both intergovernmental negotiations and adaptation to these changes.Demographic change, with its global megatrends of migration and population ageing, as well as numerous health issues, has significant implications for the transition to sustainability and challenges its human, technological, economic, social, and political elements. In discussions of mobility impacts, environmentally induced migration is sometimes viewed as a failure to adapt to environmental degradation that has resultedin large numbers of displaced people. However, the reality is much more complex. An alternative view presents migration as an important adaptation strategy. Population ageing is thought to have a direct impact on the environment by leading to changes in consumption levels and patterns, resulting in a reduction in certain environmental pressures. The impact of an ageing population on labour markets, as well as the negative consequences for fiscal balances, can affect public and private budgets, which in turn can influence policy and discourage investment. Therefore, more accurate information is needed to dispel misconceptions (growth paranoia, Anthropocene, etc.) that often underlie the population-development nexus and to formulate policies that lead to a transition to sustainable societies.
Early depictions of the first Lisbon rhinoceros in the 16th century
Authors: Rookmaaker Kees , Monson Jim , Billia Emmanuel  ME
Published: November 2024

The first post-Roman rhinoceros to be seen alive in Europe reached the harbour of Lisbon, Portugal on 20 May 1515. After a fight with an elephant staged on 3 June 1515, King Dom Manuel I ‘the Fortunate’ decided to gift the rhino to Pope Leo X in Rome. The animal drowned when the vessel was shipwrecked in a storm off La Spezia in northern Italy at the end of January 1516. Information and a sketch reached the German city of Nuremberg, where Albrecht Dürer proceeded to make a drawing with text dated 1515, followed by a woodcut of the Lisbon Rhinoceros. Dürer’s works show a characteristic twisted horn in the shoulder region, found in all later copies, which became the standard representation of the rhinoceros from 1545 in books and artworks. During the first part of the 16th century, until about 1560, there were at least 16 works showing a rhinoceros without this Dürer-hornlet. These would have been sketches of the living animal during its short life in Europe, or possibly been derived from such portrayals. Five such works have remained largely unknown, and are here described, discussed and illustrated. First, there is a set of similar engravings found in three separate Cartinhas (booklets) produced in Portugal between 1534-1544 by the printer Germão Galharde, where the animal is uniquely named “Rhinocerom”, here noticed in zoological context for the first time. Second, two similar figures of a rhinoceros on the cover of a pamphlet by the Italian author Giovanni Giacomo Penni and in the background of a large painting by Francesco Granacci of 1515-1516 might both be based on a coloured unsigned sketch found in a volume of manuscripts in the Library of the Vatican (Vat. lat. 2847). Third, the Historia Senensium by Sigismondo Tizio contains a sketch of a rhinoceros in shackles in an entry for 1515. Fourth, a rhinoceros is found among marginal drawings and manuscript annotations added to a volume of Pliny’s Natural History. Finally, a book on Quadrupeds published by Michael Herr in 1546 has an independent illustration of a rhinoceros without a hornlet on the shoulders, copied in books by Hubert de L'Espine of 1558 and Barthélemy Aneau of 1559. All examples are illustrated for future comparison.

The Creativity of Ildar Abuzarov Through the Lens of Literary Criticism in the Context of Contemporary Russian-Language Literature
Authors: Yuldasheva Nilufarkhon , Baltabaeva Aziza
Published: November 2024

Abstract. This article examines the work of contemporary Russian writer Ildar Abuzarov through the lens of literary criticism. Ildar Abuzarov's writing is distinguished by its originality in narrative strategies, deep philosophical undertones, and symbolism, which allows for an analysis of his works from various literary approaches, such as structuralism, postmodernism, and intertextuality.
Special attention is paid to issues of national and cultural identity, which are reflected in the plots and images created by the author. Drawing on the rich cultural traditions of Tatar and Russian literature, Ildar Abuzarov creates a unique literary world where mythological and modern motifs are seamlessly intertwined. The role of symbolism and mythology in his works is explored, along with the distinctive features of his poetics, expressed through the use of archetypes, allusions, and metaphors.
The article analyzes key studies on Abuzarov's work, focusing on the genre and stylistic characteristics of his texts. Researchers demonstrate how Abuzarov, through formal experimentation, expands the boundaries of traditional storytelling, creating texts that can be interpreted as postmodern, with their characteristic multiplicity of meanings and openness to interpretation.
In addition, the article explores the philosophical and existential aspects of Abuzarov's prose, which are manifested through his characters' search for the meaning of life, self-identification, and confrontation with the metaphysical uncertainty of the world. Based on the analysis conducted, it is concluded that Ildar Abuzarov’s work occupies an important place in contemporary literature due to its multilayered nature and richness of interpretations, making it of significant interest to literary scholars.

Authors: Cardial Iago Oliveira
Published: November 2024

Advances in technology have led to the use of cloud systems, the storage and distribution of files over the Internet, especially Saas (Software as a Service), which is now widely used by businesses due to its great advantage of scalability and practicality. However, in the midst of this technology, there has been an increase in ransomware attacks, a type of malware designed to encrypt data storage areas on computers and servers, causing users to lose access to their data in the cloud. The main objective of this work is to apply a methodology based on IDS (Intrusion Detection Systems), using the Snort tool in a virtualized network environment in Oracle Virtualbox, on the Kali Linux virtual machine, to analyze and solve problems with ransomware attacks in the cloud. The goal is to present ideas and considerations to train users to take security measures against these attacks should they occur at any time, making the work of cybercriminals more difficult. To keep this storage environment clean and secure, we need the cooperation of the security software, with rules and alerts that are always up to date, together with the monitoring team.
