Performance of Different Spray Nozzles in the Application of Defoliant on Cotton Plants (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
Authors: Bayat Ali , Ibrahim Mohamud Ali , Bolat Ali
Published: October 2024

Defoliant spraying is an important link in the mechanized cotton harvest because adequate and uniform spraying can improve defoliation quality and reduce cotton trash content. In defoliant application, application volume and spraying technology are extremely important. In this study, the effectiveness of defoliant application to cotton plant that has come to harvest with two different application volumes and three different types of nozzles with a standard field crop sprayer was determined. Application rates were 250 and 400 L/ha and spraying nozzles were: (1) standard flat fan nozzle (TP8006), (2) air induction nozzle (AI 11002-VS) and (3) dual pattern nozzle (AI307003VP). A tracer (BSF) and defoliant were applied to mature cotton with approximately 60% open bolls and samplings for BSF deposition and spray coverage on cotton plant were done at two plant height (upper layer, lower layer) of plant. Before and after spraying, bolls open and leaves rate on cotton plants were calculated and filter papers were used to detect BSF deposition and water sensitive papers (WSP) were used to measure coverage rate of spraying methods used. Spectrofluorophotometer was used to detect the amount of tracer deposition on targets and an image process computer program was used to measure coverage rate on WSP. In analysis conclusions showed that air induction nozzle (AI 11002-VS), achieved better results than the dual pattern and standard flat fan nozzles in terms of higher depositions, coverages and leaf defoliations and boll opening rates. AI nozzles operating at 250 L/ha application rate provide the highest deposition and coverage rate on applications of defoliant, in addition, BSF as an indicator of the defoliant used reached on leaf beneath in merely this spray nozzle. After defoliation boll opining rate was 85-% on the 7th and 12th days after spraying and falling rate of leaves was 76-% at application rate of 250 L/ha with air induction (AI1102) nozzle.

Unbounded Star Convergence in Lattices
Authors: Vural Mehmet
Published: October 2024

Let L be a vector lattice, "(" x_α ") " be a L-valued net, and x∈L . If |x_α-x|∧u→┴o 0 for every u ∈〖 L〗_+ then it is said that the net "(" x_α ")" unbounded order converges to x and is denoted by □(x_α □(→┴uo x)) . This definition of unbounded order convergence has been extensively studied on many structures, including vector lattices, local solid vector lattices, normed lattices and lattice normed spaces. It is not possible to apply this type of convergence to general lattices due to the lack of algebraic structure. Therefore, we will use a type of convergence that is considered to be the motivation for this type of convergence, first defined as independent convergence in semi-ordered linear spaces and later called unbounded order convergence. Namely, L is a lattice, x_α is an L -valued net, and x ϵ L . If (x_α∧b )∨a order converges to (x∧b )∨a for every a,b∈L with a≤b, then it is said that "(" x_α ")" individual converges to x or unbounded order converges to x . This definition can be easily applied to general lattices. In this article, this definition will be understood as unbounded order convergence. Also, even if these two convergences are called by the same name, there is no equivalence between them for general lattices, an example of this is mentioned in this article. Let L be a partially ordered set, "(" x_α ")" be an L -valued net and x∈L (x_α) is said to be star convergent to x if every subnet of the net (x_α ) has a subnet that is order convergent to x and denoted by x_α □(→┴s x). In this paper, a new type of convergence on lattices is defined by combining unbounded order convergence (individual convergence) and star convergence. Let L be a lattice, (x_α ) a net and x∈L (x_α) is said to be unbounded star convergent to x if for every subnet (x_β) of (x_α), there exists a subnet (x_ζ) of (x_β) such that (x_ζ∧b)∨ □(a→┴o ) (x∧b)∨a for every a,b∈L with a≤b and it is denoted by x_α □(→┴us x). The differences between the new type of convergence, called unbounded star convergence, and order convergence, star convergence are demonstrated with counterexamples. The meaningfulness of the unbounded star convergence type is analyzed with these counterexamples and the implications presented. In addition, basic questions about unbounded star convergence of a given net on lattices such as convergence of a fixed net, uniqueness of the limit, convergence of the subnet of a convergent net are answered.

F. Ensuring quality service and maintaining competitiveness in hospitality businesses: rethinking approaches to incentivizing industry personnel
Authors:   Moscow State Linguistic University, Krasnozhenova Galina F.
Published: October 2024

Every company, including those in the hospitality industry, faces an important task — finding and using effective approaches to distributing tasks in order to reveal the capabilities of each employee of the company and improve overall productivity. The leading role in increasing productivity is played by activating the interest of employees. Analysis of this area allows us to understand what serves as a stimulus for labor activity and what elements influence decision-making when performing tasks. An effectively designed incentive system is an important resource for management, contributing to increased employee loyalty and growth of the organization's profits. Such a system must be well-thought-out, balanced and really attractive to employees. In the hotel business, such strategies become key due to the specifics of the starting conditions, where employee salaries are often lower than in other industries. This leads to an outflow of qualified specialists and a drop in overall efficiency. However, a well-designed and implemented motivational system can radically change the situation.

The Dilemmas in Financing Higher Education in Kenya, 1960-2012
Authors: Okuro Samwel Ongwen
Published: October 2024

In the last two decades or so Kenya has witnessed increased demand for university education. This has forced education planners to experiment with a number of strategies to admit these increased numbers of qualified students to existing public universities. These strategies have seen remarkable flexibility in public university programs and admission requirements. Some of these strategies include: evening programs, weekend programs, holiday programs, and open and distance learning programs. But one which has raised enough public attention is the variedly labeled parallel, module two or self- sponsored students programs. Although this program has substantially increased access to public university education in Kenya, it has equally been criticized particularly on its ability to deliver quality university education. The argument has been that the programs were primarily tasked with the purpose of raising income and ensuring institutional survival in the prevailing harsh economic conditions. What is however unknown is the extent to which the program has promoted quality training for students and improved skills for public university academic staff. The brief paper seeks to address this gap. The paper will be based on secondary data and personal observations. This will go along way to addressing the reported declining quality of teaching and research in public universities not only in Kenya but also in sub- Saharan Africa
Unveiling Longitudinal Patterns in International Mental Health Assessments: A Systematic Evaluation of Clustering Techniques
Authors: Makunda. John , Waititu Helen , Nyakundi Cornelius
Published: October 2024

Background: Mental health assessments across diverse populations provide valuable insights into the prevalence and patterns of mental health issues. However, the complexity and volume of longitudinal data present challenges in extracting meaningful information for effective intervention. Clustering methods have emerged as powerful tools for identifying hidden structures within such datasets, yet a comprehensive evaluation of these techniques in the context of international mental health assessments is lacking. Objectives: This study aims to systematically evaluate various clustering techniques applied to longitudinal mental health data from international assessments. The focus is on understanding how different methods capture and reveal patterns and subgroups within the data, thereby guiding targeted mental health interventions. Methods: We applied and compared three clustering techniques—K-Means Clustering, Hierarchical Clustering, and Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM)—to longitudinal mental health assessment data. We assessed the performance of these methods in identifying meaningful clusters, considering their strengths and limitations in capturing the complexity of mental health trajectories. Results: Our analysis revealed distinct clusters reflecting varying levels of mental health severity and symptom trajectories. K-Means identified broad clusters, while Hierarchical Clustering provided insights into the data’s hierarchical structure. GMM offered a probabilistic view, highlighting overlapping mental health experiences among individuals. Each method contributed uniquely to understanding the longitudinal patterns in the data. Implications: The findings underscore the importance of using a multi-faceted approach to clustering in mental health research. By revealing different dimensions of mental health trajectories, this study provides valuable insights for tailoring interventions and resource allocation. The results highlight the need for ongoing evaluation of clustering techniques to enhance their applicability in diverse international contexts.

Authors: Prihandoko Aris , Sunyoto Sunyoto , Sarbini Sarbini
Published: October 2024

In the manufacturing industry, there are companies that operate in the metal forming sector. Many products are produced by the metal forming process, one of which is the packaging box lock hook. The key hook is a component part of the packaging box which functions as a hook so that the packaging box can be closed and locked. In the production of key hooks there is waste, namely over processing, which reduces the efficiency of production time. To reduce this problem, improvement efforts were made by implementing continuous improvement using the DMAIC method. Continuous improvement steps are carried out by direct observation in the field to find problems. After that, measurements and analysis are carried out to determine improvements that will be implemented. Then the improvement stage was carried out as an implementation of continuous improvement. Continuous improvement resulted in a press dies design for the key hook piercing process. By designing new press dies, production time efficiency will be achieved. After carrying out Continuous Improvement, it resulted in an increase in the efficiency of the number of processes from 6 processes to 5 processes and the total production time in 1 cycle from 13.3 hours to 11.4 hours or 1.9 hours faster or an increase in efficiency of 13.3 % of the total time before Continuous Improvement. And 50% increase in sub piercing process.

Published: October 2024

Increasing reliance on digital resources in the classroom has raised concerns about cognitive overload and its impact on learning efficiency, particularly in language acquisition. The present study will investigate the effectiveness of Canva as a digital tool to support Arabic vocabulary acquisition, underpinned by cognitive load theory and social learning theory. It employs a mixed-methods design that combines quantitative and qualitative interviewing to gather the intensive data from participants who used Canva to acquire vocabulary. The quantitative data were analyzed with statistics to test the effect of Canva on vocabulary retention, while the qualitative data provided rich insights into the experiences of the users and their perceived cognitive load. Results have shown that Canva significantly improves vocabulary retention by reducing cognitive overload and enhancing collaborative learning environments. These findings mean that Canva is an effective tool in language acquisition, offering a coherent integration of multimedia elements matching cognitive load theories. The implications of this study are twofold: from a theoretical viewpoint, it justifies the implementation of multimedia tools in educational settings; from a practical perspective, the inclusion of Canva in language acquisition courses is recommended for the better achievement of educational outcomes. However, the restrictions of the research-a limitation to one single language and the abstract nature of the study-indicate a need for further empirical studies to confirm these findings in different contexts and languages. Future studies should research the impact of Canva on language retention over a longer period, and if possible, include other principles of lean management in education methodologies.

Published: October 2024

his article examined patient violence on mental health practitioners, the experiences and the unique effects of these encounters among practitioners in the mental health setting, as well as the ways of minimizing these discomforting circumstances to enable a conducive atmosphere for the practitioners and their patients. The study created an in-depth understanding of the practitioners’ experiences, using a phenomenological design on 28 participants from three mental health settings in Nigeria. Data was transcribed word for word and analyzed and then displayed using matrix, quotations, and causal networks. Findings from the study indicated that violence against practitioners included physical attacks, lockups in the office, threats, abuses and insults, and accusations. Consequently, practitioners experienced fear, injury, distress, fatigue, reduced concentration and brain function, inadequate performance and poor general well-being. These patient attacks lead to disturbing experiences that are capable of causing pain and affecting the practitioner’s ability to handle patients and other duties. Nonetheless, patient hostility could be minimized by training the practitioners for a positive mindset, recruiting more practitioners, increasing security and providing rescue doors to every building in the psychiatric hospitals for easy escape.

Authors: Onyango Edward Orwa , Mutungi Joseph , Chepkirui Rotich Gladys
Published: October 2024

Land ownership, a critical factor in food security, is particularly significant in sub-Saharan Africa, where agriculture is the primary source of income and sustenance for many. This study, which focused on Migori County, Kenya, examined the gender dynamics of land ownership and their impact on food security. Anchored on the sociological institutionalism theory, the study used a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data from a household survey (n=250) with qualitative data from in-depth interviews with key informants (n=20) and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) (n=4). The paper delves into how cultural norms, inheritance practices, and a weak legal framework perpetuate these inequalities. The study’s findings, which reveal a persistent gender gap in land ownership, with men disproportionately controlling land titles and decision-making power, are essential. This patriarchal land system restricts women’s access to land, hindering their agricultural productivity and contribution to household food security in particular and human security in general. The study recommends legal reforms to entrench women’s right to land ownership and use, cultural sensitization programs, and promotion of innovative land access models such as joint titling and land leases. These recommendations can potentially make a tangible difference in the lives of women in Migori County, significantly improving their food security.

Digital transformation is a complex process that involves integrating new technologies into an organization’s operations, which requires significant change management. The process affects all facets of an organization, from its business model to its culture, and requires a clear understanding of the potential challenges to pave a more efficient and successful path toward transformation. Building Information Modelling is a set of digital transformation tools or software that can integrate the data and manage construction projects to run efficiently and effectively. BIM is also a technology that can improve the effectiveness and standard of built asset design, construction, and operation. The quantity surveyors can accomplish their typical tasks, such as measurement, procurement advising, estimating and cost planning, and the creation of bills of quantities, more successfully and efficiently by adopting BIM. However, the adoption of BIM amongst quantity surveyor is still low in many countries, including Malaysia. Thus, this research aims to present the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) amongst fresh graduate quantity surveyors based on current demand on work in the construction industry with the intention of uncovering new findings. There are two research objectives had been developed which are to identify the advantages of BIM amongst fresh graduate quantity surveyors, to determine the challenges encountered in adopting BIM amongst fresh graduate quantity surveyors. To achieve these objectives, a questionnaire survey based on random sampling methods was adopted. The questionnaire survey had been distributed to the fresh graduate quantity surveyors working at Contractor G7 in Selangor. Consequently, the findings of this research revealed that the advantages of implementing BIM are that BIM produce time savings in the preparation of costs. The challenges encountered in adopting BIM are lack of information technology and computing skills in adopting BIM.

Data governance, policies and Data Access
Authors:   MORU, Cheah Phaik Yeong
Published: October 2024

No research using clinical data can happen without good governance of that data. Good data governance relies not only on the ethical considerations covered in the previous module (see Ethics of sharing individual level health research data), but on an interlocking framework that also includes policy, legal agreements and regulatory compliance. For example, the need for third parties accessing data to meet ethics requirements will be mandated and reinforced by inclusion of this obligation in a legally-binding agreement, which in turn will reflect the principles outlined in the policies created by the institution drafting that agreement. The Data Access Committee is included in this module as useful catalyst in the development, delivery and oversight of these components for good data governance. While a primary role of data access committees is to assess the ethical footing and scientific feasibility of data access requests, the manner of their formation and operation can serve to support equitable outcomes in the reuse of data for research. This module will introduce the components of data governance and provide a starting point for anyone wishing to implement these solutions within their institution, consortium or network.
Data repositories

Published: October 2024

Have you wondered what happens to data when a research study is completed? Supposing you are a researcher who wants to share a copy of the data you have been recently working on with me, how would you do it? Would you give me a USB drive with the data on it, send it to me through email, or perhaps upload the files to Dropbox? If I requested to see data you worked on 6 months ago, a year ago, or even 5 years ago, would you be able to find it easily and share it with me? Where might these data be stored - on an old laptop, a hard drive, or in your email archives? There are two important aspects here: how to store data and how to transfer the data to someone else. We can see the ideal system emerging slowly: we need to focus on long-term data preservation. Data preservation involves safeguarding digital data against corruption, loss, or damage. It ensures future accessibility and usability of the data despite changes in technology and in data formats. In this module, we discuss how data repositories solve problems with data storage and access.

La diabetes es una enfermedad crónica causada por un elevado nivel de glucosa en la sangre, que con el transcurso del tiempo conduce al desarrollo de enfermedades cardiovasculares, ceguera, neuropatía diabética, cetoacidosis diabética, entre otras, por lo cual la investigación sobre su tratamiento ha ganado una gran relevancia en la medicina actual. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo explorar los tipos de tratamientos complementarios y alternativos (TCA) actuales utilizados en los pacientes con diabetes. Para esto, se realizó una revisión sistemática de diversos artículos publicados desde el 2020 hasta el 2024 en determinadas bases de datos (Google Scholar, Redalyc y Dialnet), con la finalidad de identificar y analizar las investigaciones relacionadas con el tema de estudio. Para la selección de los estudios, se aplicaron criterios de elegibilidad mediante el método Prisma; a partir de esto, se obtuvieron un total de 15 artículos. En los resultados se observó que entre los TCA más importantes se encuentran la fitoterapia (uso de plantas medicinales), la acupuntura, la actividad física, la homeopatía y el ayuno, los cuales ayudan a controlar la glucosa, liberar la insulina y mejorar la función de las células beta. Como conclusión del estudio, se determina que los TCA son opciones eficaces para tratar a los pacientes con diabetes debido a los beneficios que les brinda y a su impacto positivo en la mejora del estilo de vida.
Lightly chaotic dynamical systems
Authors: Miranda Annamaria
Published: October 2024

In this paper we introduce some weak dynamical properties by using subbases for the phase space. Among them, the notion of  light chaos is the most significant. Several examples, which clarify the relationships between this kind of chaos and some classical notions, are given. Particular attention is also devoted to the connections between the dynamical properties of a system and the dynamical properties of the associated functional envelope. We show, among other things, that a continuous map f : X → X , where X is a metric space, is chaotic (in the sense of Devaney) if and only if the associated functional dynamical system is lightly chaotic.

Published: October 2024

Teenagers more often consume foods that are high in fat and glucose than vegetable and fruit consumption. This can trigger the onset of diabetes mellitus, especially in adolescents who have Diabetes Mellitus (DM) parents. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in consumption patterns and status between adolescents and parents of DM and not DM. This cross sectional study involved 42 adolescents as samples, consisting of 21 adolescents with DM parents and 21 adolescents who were not DM parents, randomly using simle rendom sampling technique, the differences between variables were analyzed using the Independent T-test and Mann Whitney test (α=0.05). The results showed that there were no differences in the consumption patterns of high Glycaemic Index (GI) foods (p = 0.229) and fruit and vegetables (p = 0.14) between adolescents with DM parents and non-DM parents, but adolescents with DM parents tended to consume more high GI foods than adolescents with non-DM parents. There were differences in nutritional status between adolescents with DM parents and non-DM parents (p = 0.036). The conclusion of this study is that most adolescents with DM parents are very overweight at the time of nutritional status. In adolescents, it is necessary to reduce the frequency of consumption of foods with high IG and to increase the consumption of fruit and vegetables and physical activity, especially in adolescents with DM parents.

Managing Regional Development In The Area of Renewable Energy Sources In Poland
Authors: FILIPOWICZ Magdalena
Published: October 2024

This article examines the challenges of power grid congestion in a municipality located in central Poland and presents potential solutions in the form of a photovoltaic farm project or prosumer group installation. In the context of growing demand for electricity and an increasing number of households producing energy from renewable sources, there is a need to upgrade the energy infrastructure to meet the needs of the local community. A planned photovoltaic farm or group prosumer installations are not only a way to relieve stressed grids, but also a step towards sustainable energy production and reduction of CO2 emissions. In the article, I also discuss the economic, social and environmental aspects of implementing these projects and the possible benefits for the municipality and its residents. My analysis indicates the potential for solar energy development in the region and presents effective tools that can help modernize energy infrastructure and promote sustainable development in local communities.
Renewable Energy Progress in The European Union Under the Challenges Brought by The Russian-Ukrainian War

Published: October 2024

The ongoing Russian – Ukrainian war followed by the energy crisis that emerged in mid-2022 have sparked concern about the European Union’s security energy security, highlighting that renewable energy must be at the core of European energy policy in the medium and long term. Our paper aims to investigate the main drivers and progresses of renewable energy (RE) development in the European Union (EU) using a quantitative analysis, based on the latest Eurostat data, to show what Member States perform best in the European hierarchy. Our research also aims to highlight the existing opportunities and threats for RE development in the Member States under the green transition goals. Our main finding is that while there are significant progresses toward boosting RE development and use in most Member States, additional national policies focused on incentives and special derogations for investors may be necessary to further develop RE across EU. Our second finding is that, under the current geopolitical framework, RE remains an essential pillar for reducing EU’s dependence on fossil fuels imported from Russian Federation.
