Authors: Бочаров Сергей Геннадиевич , Масловский Андрей Николаевич
Published: December 2024

В работе охарактеризована одна из групп византийских амфор, поступавших на территорию Золотой Орды в ранний период её существования. В отечественной научной литературе эта группа амфор получила название «Триллия» по порту Никейской империи на Мраморном море или «амфор с высокоподнятыми ручками». Ранее она не удостаивалась отдельных публикаций. Она занимает третье место по численности находок среди византийской керамической тары на территории Золотой Орды. Приводится обзор точек зрения относительно места её производства. Даётся технологическая и морфологическая характеристика изделий группы, сосуды которой изготовлены путем вытягивания тулова из комка глины по емкостно-донной программе с отдельно изготовленным горлом. Данные амфоры являются важным хроноиндикатором при изучении материального комплекса памятников Золотой Орды, позволяя выделять материалы и памятники, появившиеся не позднее первой четверти XIV в.

Authors: Егоров Андрей Владимирович
Published: December 2024

Данная статья посвящена истории обнаружения и дальнейшего изучения найденного в 1888 г. местными крестьянами на берегу р. Лекмы клада, состоящего из 242 золотоордынских монет и 4 «татарских» браслетов, в последствии датированного первой половиной XV в. Представлен подробный обзор упоминаний и истории изучения Ташьялудского клада золотоордынских монет и браслетов, начиная с дореволюционного периода (архивные документы Вятского губернского статистического комитета) и заканчивая современными обобщающими работами (Г.А. Федоров-Давыдов, Е.Ю. Мокерова и проч.). Отдельно рассмотрены: хронология клада и ее связь с масштабными историческими событиями в регионе, возможные причины его тезаврации, историческая топография места обнаружения и связь с ближайшими археологическими памятниками современного Ярского района Республики Удмуртия. Сделано предположение о связи клада с булгаро-татарским населением, переселившимся в бассейн р. Чепцы в период кардинальных изменений в Волго-Камском регионе, вызванных распадом Золотой Орды.

Authors: Terriault Patrick , Gagnon Caroline
Published: December 2024

To meet the accreditation criteria set forth by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board, institutions are required to provide evidence that their graduates exhibit proficiency in 12 specific attributes. These attributes are usually assessed by instructors, albeit with some reliability and validity concerns. In an effort to enhance the variety of data sources, a study has been initiated to measure students' perceived sense of competency in relation to these graduate attributes. To assess their self-efficacy, 207 first to fourth year undergraduate students of sixteen courses were asked to voluntarily respond to a survey during the last three weeks of the fall 2023 semester. The statistical analysis of the gathered data reveals that students' self-efficacy is the lowest toward the graduate attribute 9 related to the impact of engineering on society and the environment. Therefore, a program improvement is recommended to enhance the students’ self-efficacy regarding this graduate attribute.

Dopasowanie ofert kont instytucji finansowych do zmieniających się trendów w zachowaniu pokolenia Z
Authors: Król Patryk
Published: December 2024

Celem badawczym artykułu jest określenie, czy instytucje finansowe kierują do pokolenia Z dopasowane i atrakcyjne oferty kont. Artykuł podejmuje również próbę scharakteryzowania przekazu reklamowego kierowanego do pokolenia Z. Jak wynika z analizy literatury, dotychczas w tym obszarze nie przeanalizowano konkretnych ofert kont instytucji finansowych. Podjęto więc własne badania na ten temat. W tym celu porównano 18 ofert różnych instytucji finansowych: 13 banków komercyjnych, 2 grup banków spółdzielczych, 2 banków spółdzielczych samodzielnych, 1 SKOK-u. Z próby następnie wyłączono instytucje nieposiadające konta dla osób w wieku 18‒25. Wnioskiem płynącym z rozważań jest obserwacja, iż większość instytucji finansowych ma specjalne oferty kierowane do pokolenia Z. Te instytucje, które ich nie posiadają, najczęściej mają w ofercie konto, w którym brak opłat za podstawowe usługi jest zerowy lub niski dla wszystkich grup wiekowych. Problemem instytucji finansowych może być natomiast utrzymanie lojalności klienta.
Balancing Innovation and Sustainability: Assessing the Impact of Generative AI on Energy Consumption
Authors: Balogun Barnabas Friday  , Dhakir Abbas Ali
Published: December 2024

The rapid advancement of Generative AI is driven by its potential benefits, improvements in computing efficiency, productivity enhancement, organization consolidation of AI's innovations and capability, and limited regulatory oversight. Like many large-scale technology-induced changes, generative AI's current trajectory, characterized by rapid advancements and relentless demand, fails to fully take into account the negative impacts alongside anticipated benefits. Key among these negative impacts is the energy requirement of generative AIs, and the environmental effects are a growing concern. This partial cost-benefit estimation encourages unhindered growth and risk of unfair techno-optimism with possible environmental consequences, together with growing demand for computing power resulting in increasing energy consumption, larger carbon footprints, and accelerated depletion of natural resources, including water resources for cooling.
This necessitates an assessment of the current unsustainable method toward generative artificial intelligence (AI) development and deployment, emphasizing the significance of evaluating the cost-benefit analysis of technological advancements alongside the energy requirement and consequential social and environmental impacts. Currently, efforts to improve computing sustainability largely focus on efficiency enhancements, including refining AI algorithms, boosting hardware energy efficiency, and improving the carbon efficiency of computing workloads. In the existence of expected benefits, relentless demand, and prioritization of economic growth, this focus on productivity improvements results instead of growing adoption without fundamentally taking into account the enormous sustainability implications of generative AIs.
This study posits that striking a balance between innovation and sustainability ensures a brighter future for businesses, the economy, and the planet. Secondly, integrating environmental impact assessments into AI development processes could guide the creation of more sustainable models, ensuring that innovation is not at the detriment of environmental sustainability. Third, the development of sustainable AI models requires focus beyond only efficiency improvements and demands cost-benefits assessment frameworks that promote the development of generative AI models in ways that support social and environmental sustainability goals along with economic opportunity. Fourth, value consideration is multi-layered and needs comprehensive analysis, evaluation, coordination, innovation, and adoption across diverse stakeholders. Fifth, collaboration between governments, international organizations, technology companies, researchers, technical and sociotechnical experts, civil society and other stakeholders is crucial for advancing sustainable AI development practices.

Published: December 2024

In the present study, eight reinforced concrete slabs divided into four groups with two slabs per group were fabricated and tested under impact load, replacing their aggregate with 0%, 4%, 8%, and 16% of polyethylene terephthalate) PET). During the preparation process, PET materials increased the workability of fresh concrete by up to 16% and decreased the density by 9%. The compressive strength decreased by about 11.7%, 15.7%, and 19.9% using 4%, 8%, and 16% of PET, respectively. Splitting strength decreased by 7.2%, 17.4%, and 20.3% using 4%, 8%, and 16% of PET, respectively. Failure mode and deflection amplitude results showed that PET delayed the first cracks and reduced the crack lengths and width and crack spreading at failure. Also, impact resistance enhanced at the first crack and ultimate load stages when PET was used compared to normal concrete. The maximal and minimal displacement decreased with increasing PET proportion to 8% and 16%. The slabs were modeled using the finite element program SAP2000 with 4-node shell elements. The finite element (FE) analysis showed a similar deflection response as those experimentally obtained for all slabs. The deflection obtained by FE was less, about 15.5% and 19%, compared with all slabs experimentally tested except slab G2-2, which showed a higher deflection of about 16.3%.

Authors: Dimitriadis Grigorios , Crovato Adrien , Martínez Mariano Sánchez , Laraspata Vito , Soria Leonardo , Kilimtzidis Spyridon , Kostopoulos Vassilis
Published: December 2024

The steady and unsteady aerodynamic predictions of the Doublet Lattice Method (DLM) are routinely corrected for camber, twist, and transonic effects using steady reference data obtained from experiments or higher-fidelity calculations. In this work, a novel correction technique is presented for the unsteady compressible Source and Doublet Panel Method (SDPM) in order to correct for transonic effects. Although the SDPM is more computationally expensive than the DLM, it can predict complete steady and oscillatory pressure distributions around the entire surface of the exact geometry of a wing or body. Consequently, it does not require corrections for geometric properties such as camber and twist, only for transonic flow phenomena. The corrected predictions are compared to unsteady pressure distributions measured experimentally for two experimental test cases from the literature. It is shown that that the predictions of the SDPM correction method are accurate as long as the reference pressure data are of adequate quality. Finally, the SDPM with transonic correction is applied to the prediction of the flutter boundary of the AGARD 445.6 wing, and it is demonstrated that the proposed approach is capable of predicting the transonic dip.

Authors: Anisa  , Asep Sopian  , Hanip Hidayatulloh
Published: December 2024

Arabic plays an important role in the history of education in Indonesia and must remain as focus of attention. Arabic language learning at MTs under the Ministry of Religious Affairs needs to be well-integrated into the existing curriculum, so that it is relevant to the values promoted by the current vision of Indonesian Education, especially the Pancasila Student Profile which focuses on building the character of students. However, in practice, Arabic language teaching materials at MTs are not fully connected to these values.  For this reason, efforts are needed to test the feasibility of one of the teaching materials. In this context, the researcher chose the teaching material "al-Muthalaah" by Abu Abdurrohman to test its feasibility for the Pancasila Student Profile. Exploratory descriptives will be used in this feasibility test with the Miles and Huberman model data analysis technique. The validation test was carried out by two experts, including a material expert and a media expert. The validation test results show that al-Muthalaah's teaching materials received an average score of 87.75% and were categorized as extremely valid by material experts. The aspect of the relevance of teaching materials to the Pancasila Student Profile also received a high score with 95%. However, media experts gave an average score of 80% with the category being sufficiently valid and requiring slight revision. This shows that Al-Muthala'ah teaching materials were declared feasible and relevant to be applied in Arabic language learning at MTs. So that it can become practical material for aligning ourselves with the vision promoted by the government and also helps students understand and internalize the values that support their interactions with the surrounding environment.

Antonio Borges da Fonseca produced several newspapers and periodicals throughout his political life and in various places from north to south of Brazil. What gave it the greatest notoriety, however, was the so-called O Republico, which began in 1830 in Rio de Janeiro. This periodical allowed the publicists to debate their ideas and further inflate the political spirits that the capital of the empire was experiencing. With intense attacks on the monarchic system and the emperor, O Republico provided a differentiated view among so many newspapers produced by Borges da Fonseca. This article aims to analyze the publications of O Republico in its first stage, between 1830 and 1831, analyzing the main strategies of the publicist for the defense and propagation of his ideas, mainly the republic and federalism.

Published: December 2024

Adolescent pregnancy is a major public health problem in India due to its deleterious consequences on maternal and child health outcomes. A secondary data analysis was performed to assess the proportion of adolescent pregnancy and its association with maternal anemia among pregnant women attending a tertiary care hospital in Kolkata, West Bengal. The secondary data captured in the labor room logbook was analyzed after obtaining permission from the concerned authority. The data were anonymized and checked for completeness, and only complete responses were used for analysis. Among the women who were admitted during the study period, 11.5% were adolescents. Among them, 17.4% were multigravida during their current pregnancy. The prevalence of anemia in teenage pregnancies was higher compared to its adult counterpart (46.4% vs. 40.7%), and this difference was statistically significant. As adolescent pregnancy was found to be significantly associated with maternal anemia, this group needs special attention to prevent adverse consequences.
Respiratory Abnormalities Among Elderly Women in Urban Slums: A Comprehensive Analysis of Contributing Factors
Authors: Ghosh Anushka , Mukhopadhyay Susmita , Mukhopadhyay Barun
Published: December 2024

Background:

India experiences a growing aging population and prioritizing the comprehension of respiratory health concerns among the elderly becomes crucial. Those in the elderly demographic residing in urban slums confront notable socioeconomic obstacles and encounter restricted healthcare accessibility, heightening their vulnerability to respiratory illnesses. Therefore, examining respiratory health in this specific urban context provides insights into how living conditions impact the health of vulnerable populations.

Objectives:

The present study aims to evaluate the occurrence of respiratory abnormalities among slum-dwelling elderly women and also to determine the concomitant factors responsible for respiratory abnormalities among them.

Material and Methods:

The study includes a total of 261 elderly women aged 60 years and above living in slum areas of Kolkata. The standard protocols were followed to collect spirometry and anthropometric data. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed to satisfy the study objectives.

Results:

The majority of the participants show forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV0.1) below the predicted level, indicating the presence of mild-to-moderate respiratory abnormality. Chronic obstructive respiratory disease (COPD) was observed in 15.2% of elderly women, significantly higher than the national average. The study identified significant correlations between age and respiratory abnormalities. Factors such as overcrowded living conditions, the absence of a separate kitchen, and the use of certain cooking fuels increased the likelihood of COPD. Body fat percentage was found to be inversely related to FVC, FEV0.1, and COPD.

Conclusion:

The poor living conditions and a few other associated factors are indicative of developing respiratory problems among elderly individuals. As the global population ages, this study contributes valuable insights for public health strategies, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches to address the specific challenges faced by elderly women in urban slums in the megacity of Kolkata.

Космическая инспекция понимается как комплекс операций, осуществляемый с помощью средств космического базирования и направленный на получение информации об космических объектах искусственного происхождения путем наблюдения, в том числе при сближении с ними, с целью решения одной из прикладных задач. Особенностью применения космического аппарата-инспектора для решения целевых задач является необходимость их автономного наведения космические объекты. Для обеспечения скрытности в качестве измерительного устройства в контуре наведения центра масс космического аппарата-инспектора, используется пассивная оптико-электронная система. Предлагается метод определения расстояния до движущегося излучающего целевого орбитального объекта с помощью фотометрической оптико-электронной системы, входящей в арсенал, подвижного космического аппарата-инспектора. Анализируются условия сходимости решения в рассматриваемой задаче и приводятся рекомендации по их обеспечению. Предлагается методика определения расстояния по данным фотометрических измерений.

State Election Commission of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, Mirny, Russian Federation Space inspection is understood as a complex of operations carried out using space-based facilities and aimed at obtaining information about space objects of artificial origin through observation, including when approaching them, in order to solve one of the applied tasks. The peculiarity of using an inspector spacecraft to solve target tasks is the need for their autonomous guidance of space objects. To ensure secrecy, a passive optoelectronic system is used as a measuring device in the guidance loop of the center of mass of the inspector spacecraft. A method is proposed for determining the distance to a moving radiating target orbital object using a photometric optoelectronic system included in the arsenal of a mobile spacecraft inspector. The conditions of convergence of the solution in the problem under consideration are analyzed and recommendations for their provision are given. A method for determining the distance based on photometric measurements is proposed.

Исследование информации о чрезвычайных ситуациях природного и техногенного характера, позволяет сделать вывод, что своевременное обнаружение возникновения и определения очага стихийного бедствия позволяют значительно предотвращать их дальнейшее распространение и снижать последствия, при своевременном контроле районов возможного возникновения чрезвычайных ситуаций. Одним из подходов контроля таких районов является патрулирование этих районов с использованием мобильных объектов. Предлагается широкомасштабное использование орбитальных группировок космических аппаратов дистанционного зондирования Земли для мониторинга районов вероятного возникновения чрезвычайных ситуаций и маршрутов их патрулирования с использованием мобильных объектов, что делает актуальным решение задачи определения координат границ зон обзора космических аппаратов на ортодромии путей движения этих объектов.

The study of information on natural and man-made emergencies allows us to conclude that timely detection of the occurrence and determination of the source of a natural disaster can significantly prevent their further spread and reduce the consequences, with timely monitoring of areas ofpossible emergency situations. One of the approaches to monitoring such areas is patrolling these areas using mobile objects. It is proposed to use large-scale orbital groups of Earth remote sensing spacecraft to monitor areas of probable emergency situations and their patrol routes using mobile objects, which makes it relevant to solve the problem of determining the coordinates of the boundaries of spacecraft coverage areas at the orthodromy of the paths of these objects.

Конституционное право на жизнь ребенка на пренатальной стадии развития: духовно-нравственный аспект
Authors: Воронкова М.Л.
Published: December 2024

Глубокий демографический кризис, стремительное старение населения России в последние десятилетия имеют множество причин, в том числе и довольно большое число абортов. В этой связи остро стоит вопрос о защите жизни на пренатальной стадии развития, что обусловливает актуальность данного исследования. Автор использует как общенаучные, так и специальные юридические методы исследования. В результате исследования автор предлагает закрепить конституционное право на жизнь с момента зачатия, вывести аборты из системы обязательного медицинского страхования и полностью запретить аборты по желанию женщин, в том числе и на платной основе. Следует развивать фетальную хирургию и возможность оказания медицинской помощи в утробе матери в целях сокращения числа абортов по медицинским показаниям. Также нужно запретить на уровне уголовного права фетальную терапию и опыты на человеческих эмбрионах, поскольку именно этой индустрии выгодно большое количество абортов, разрешенных законом. Следует отнести все эти опыты к тяжким преступлениям против личности. В женских консультациях необходимо проводить беседы об ответственности женщины за жизнь своего ребенка во время беременности. Все эти меры должны быть направлены на создание такого общества, где многодетные семьи являются правилом, а не исключением, а право на жизнь ребенка в утробе матери защищено наряду с правом на жизнь женщины.

The deep demographic crisis and the rapid aging of the Russian population in recent decades have many reasons, including a rather large number of abortions. In this regard, the question of protecting life at the prenatal stage of development is urgent, which determines the relevance of this study. The aim of the study is a comprehensive analysis of the current legislation related to the constitutional right to a childs life in the prenatal period, from a moral point of view. The author uses both general scientific and special legal research methods. As a result of the study, it is proposed to consolidate the constitutional right to life from the moment of conception, to remove abortions from the compulsory health insurance system and to completely ban abortions at the request of women, including on a paid basis. Fetal surgery and the possibility of providing medical care in the womb should be developed in order to reduce the number of abortions for medical reasons. It is also necessary to prohibit fetal therapy and experiments on human embryos at the level of criminal law, since it is precisely this industry that benefits from the large number of abortions permitted by law. To attribute all these experiments to serious crimes against the person. In antenatal clinics, it is necessary to conduct discussions about the womans responsibility for the life of her child during pregnancy. All these measures should be aimed at creating a society where large families are the rule, and not an exception, and the right to life of the child in the womb is protected along with the right to life of a woman.
