Comparison of Classical and Voxel Model Analyses of the Gaziantep Hüseyin Paşa Mosque Observed During the February 2023 Earthquake
Authors: Demirel Yusuf
Published: February 2025

In order to examine the structural behavior of the Gaziantep Hüseyin Pasha Mosque, whose behavior was observed in the February 6, 2023 earthquake, point cloud readings were taken for survey purposes and core samples were taken from the masonry stone elements to determine the material axial load capacity and shear strength. Earthquake spectra were taken from the nearest earthquake station, station TK0723, from AFAD data, and the structure was modeled and analyzed using classical and voxel model methods. In the classical modeling method, the structure is measured with traditional methods and the internal and external dimensions and element thicknesses are determined. Then, these elements are defined in the 3D model, material properties and element definitions, geometric shapes of the elements are made with the engineer's prediction, and the structural relationship and load transfer definitions between the dome, pendentive, arch, load-bearing wall and column elements are left to the engineer's interpretation. In voxel modeling, the structure is transferred to the 3D model as a whole by means of auxiliary programs and methods due to the photographic scanning of the structure as a whole. In this way, the structure is directly modeled as a whole without any element definition, dimensioning or element load transfer relationship acceptance in the 3D model. In this way, the structure and structural element behavior during the construction phase and the entire structure load transfer are not interfered with during the analysis phase. By comparing the behavior and damages of Gaziantep Hüseyin Pasha Mosque under the detected earthquake with the results of the two analytical methods obtained, the realism of both models and their behavior under the earthquake were examined. In both modeling methods, stress concentrations are observed in the arches and the dome-arch-over-arch connections, but in the classical modeling, it was determined that these concentrations were more intense and the resulting damages were less than the stress concentrations obtained in the classical model. In the voxel model, it was observed that there were similar stress concentrations, but the stresses were more distributed as a result of the voxel model analysis. It was determined that the damages that occurred after the earthquake behavior of the mosque overlapped with the scattered stress concentrations in the voxel model. As a result of the comparison of both models, it was concluded that the results obtained with the element definition in the classical modeling did not overlap with the structural behavior, and the behavior obtained by modeling the structure as a whole overlapped more with the earthquake behavior of the structure.
Power Loss, Attenuation and Electric Field Intensity Determination Of PCL/Rice Husk Using Numerical Technique for Microwave Application
Authors: Jimoh Ahmed
Published: February 2025

Materials used as microwave absorbers for electromagnetic waves interference is dependent on the ability of such material to absorb or cutoff transmission of energy from the incident radiation. The measurement of these properties responsible for the absorption had been exploited using theoretical and experimental methods. There is a dearth in the use of numerical technique to calculate these properties in the field of radio frequency characterization. Finite element method (FEM) was used to calculate the power loss, attenuation and electric field intensity of an absorber placed inside a rectangular waveguide. For the calculation, five different thicknesses (5, 10, 15, 30, and 50 mm) of rice husk/PCL samples were used. The result of the numerical calculation showed that the power loss the 50 mm has the least power loss of 0.76 at 12 GHz, an attenuation of -16.57 GHz was obtained for the 50 mm thick substrate at 12 GHz and there was a decrease in the electrical field intensity as the substrates thickens. The results indicated that the 50 mm thick sample absorbs the highest radiation and is good for small radar absorber applications. The numerical technique used was able to calculate these parameters with ease and simplicity.

Authors: Divi Sirram , Durga Rao Ganta , Anand Saurab
Published: February 2025

In India, agriculture and the allied sector is one of the foremost sectors but it is highly dependent on weather, which makes it highly susceptible to climate change risks. Thus, building resilience in the sector becomes imperative. This paper will dwell on ex-post strategy of mitigative measure, by focusing on agricultural insurance (AIn). Currently, PMFBY 2.0, which was rolled out to stabilize farmers’ incomes against the increasing risks due to climate change and the SDGs. The review of the existing literature establishes a dire need for a comprehensive assessment of PMFBY on parameters such as awareness, satisfaction, and transparency. Thus, the present study attempts to fill this gap by measuring the perceived impact (PI) of PMFBY on three variables: awareness, satisfaction, and transparency. The study uses a sequential exploratory mixed-method research design, utilizing qualitative methods and quantitative methods. It uses 15 in-depth interviews and a questionnaire with dichotomous and matrix Likert scale questions to understand variables' effects on scheme performance in four states and their districts. The analysis was done using Pearson correlation to measure the linear correlation of PI of farmers on these variables. The results highlight multicollinearity among the factors, which indicates that PI has a positive relationship with the selected variables. Thus, provides a policy dimension to improve the effectiveness of the scheme through three interconnected variables. The study addresses the issue of the comprehensive assessment of PI on the PMFBY and provides a way forward for policymakers to create resilient policies in the sector.

Published: February 2025

Riverbank erosion is a natural process that occurs as rivers adjust to disturbance events and to changes in water and sediment delivery over time. The resulting lateral movement of river channels is fundamental to building complex, dynamic, and resilient landscapes. In this sense, bank erosion is crucial to creating healthy rivers and should be preserved whenever possible. However, river managers may deem protection from bank erosion necessary if bank retreat threatens infrastructure, developed land, or other valuable natural and cultural resources. The National Park Service manages over 220,000 miles of rivers, approximately 3,750 of which are part of the National Wild and Scenic River System, encompassing various climatic, geological, watershed, and land use settings. These rivers have unique protections granted under National Park Service policies and the Wild and Scenic River Act, which require any action taken to mitigate bank erosion must minimize impacts to natural processes and river health. This document provides river managers with guidance and tools to ensure that bank erosion management aligns with the protections granted to Wild and Scenic Rivers and rivers managed by the National Park Service. River managers should reference this document during the project conceptual design phase to steer bank erosion management practices toward techniques that maintain the ecological and geomorphic functions of rivers. When evaluating a bank erosion issue, managers are encouraged to determine if erosion can be allowed to continue unimpeded or if offsite measures can be undertaken to slow the rate of bank retreat. A variety of surface treatments and flow deflection treatments are described for situations in which on-site bank protection is deemed necessary. Deformable treatments and those using organic materials, such as live vegetation or logs, are generally favored over those using inert materials, such as concrete and rock riprap.

Transition from reference adalimumab to biosimilar SB5 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: sub-analysis of Spanish patients in the PROPER study
Authors: Pérez-Ruiz Fernando , Olivares Paret Begoña , Chamizo Carmona Eugenio
Published: February 2025

This sub-analysis of the PROPER study aimed to evaluate outcomes following the transition from reference adalimumab (ADL) to SB5 (Imraldi™) in routine clinical practice in Spanish patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Adult Spanish patients (n = 73) with RA who initiated SB5 as part of routine clinical practice following treatment with reference ADL were recruited. Outcome measures included persistence on SB5, clinical characteristics, and disease activity scores at the time of transition to SB5 treatment, clinical management over time, and safety. At Week 48, the Kaplan-Meier [95% confidence interval (CI)] estimate of the probability of persistence on SB5 after switching from reference ADL was 0.84 (0.73–0.90) and 83.6% (46/55) of patients were in remission or had low disease activity. The majority of patients [83.6% (61/73)] experienced no disease flare during the study period and reported that the injection was “simple or very simple” to administer (baseline: 66.7%; Week 48: 69.0%) and were generally “satisfied or very satisfied” with the duration of the injection. In total, 21 patients (21/73, 28.8%) reported at least one drug-related adverse event, which were mild in most cases (17/21, 80.9%). In a Spanish cohort of patients with RA transitioning from reference ADL to SB5, the probability of SB5 persistence was high and treatment effectiveness was maintained for up to 48 weeks. There were no new safety signals and SB5 was well tolerated. These findings suggest that there is no evidence to mitigate against transition from reference ADL to SB5 in patients with RA (Clinicaltrials.gov listing: NCT04089514).
Perspective on clinical and imaging tools for early identification of temporomandibular joint involvement in juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Authors: Magni-Manzoni Silvia
Published: February 2025

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) involvement is an underestimated feature of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) since it is usually asymptomatic at presentation for an undeterminable time. Late diagnosis of TMJ arthritis in JIA patients leads to delayed treatment, long-term orofacial disturbances, and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Therefore, the detection of TMJ involvement is fundamental and represents a challenge. This perspective presents state-of-the-art current initiatives and available tools for early diagnosis of TMJ arthritis in children with JIA. Standardized protocols and multidisciplinary efforts for improving clinical skills in the assessment of TMJ in JIA are presented and commented on. An overview of imaging efforts for early detection of TMJ involvement in JIA is also provided, with a critical review of the advantages and limitations of different techniques, imaging protocols, and scoring systems. The perspective offers insights into the correct use and improvement of available and potential tools for early identification of TMJ arthritis in JIA subjects who deserve timely multidisciplinary treatment, avoiding both underestimation and over-diagnosis of TMJ arthritis in routine clinical practice.
Experimental Assessment of the Performance of Meta-resonator Based Band-stop Waveguide Filters Fabricated with CNC Milling and Stereolithography Methods
Authors: Bicer Sinan , Abdo Abdulrahman Nasser Abass , Dogan Habib , Genc Abdullah
Published: February 2025

In this work, using SRR meta-resonators, a band-stopping waveguide filter (WGF) in C band (4-7.5 GHz) is designed and fabricated by using both CNC milling and SLA methods, and the effect of the fabrication methods on the filter performance is experimentally evaluated. The filter order for each case is increased from 1 to 7 and meta-resonators are used as many as the number of filter degrees. To determine the performance of the WGFs, some results such as frequency response, center frequency, fractional bandwidth (FBW), and quality factor (Q) values are given comparatively for each filter order. Also, the simulated and measurement results are in good agreement with each other. The measured results show that the performance of the WGFs fabricated by the CNC milling method is partially better than the filter fabricated by the SLA method. This decrease in SLA performance is thought to be due to the production methods. However, The WGF with the SLA method is nearly 50% lighter in weight than that produced with the CNC method. As a result, the SLA fabrication method is experimentally demonstrated to be a good alternative to conventional fabrication methods such as CNC milling.
Relative Location Information Acquisition without Direct Distance Measurement in Mobile System
Authors: Takebayashi Naoki , Higaki Hiroaki
Published: February 2025

Relative location information among multiple mobile nodes is critical for cooperative and competitive applications in mobile distributed systems. One of the effective conventional methods does not measure distances between pairs of mobile nodes directly. Angles formed by sets of three mobile nodes are achieved by camera images taken by omni-directional cameras mounted on all the mobile nodes. Search for sets of interior angles of triangles and measurement of distance between a pair of mobile nodes provides relative location information. This paper extends this conventional method to achieve the relative location information without direct measurement of distance between mobile nodes. Here, camera images are taken by all the omni-directional cameras synchronously two times, two mobile nodes are required to suspend their mobility temporarily and the other mobile nodes measure their mobility distances. The computational overhead for the proposed method is not so higher than the conventional method since the additional procedure for achieving distance between the mobility suspended mobile nodes is localized.

Authors: Ismail Assoujaa
Published: February 2025

Cyber threat hunting is a proactive cybersecurity approach focused on identifying threats that evade traditional security measures. It involves the integration of human expertise, data analytics, and advanced tools to detect anomalies within organizational networks and systems. Despite its potential, many organizations remain dissatisfied with their threat hunting programs due to gaps in required analytical skills and the lack of integration of advanced techniques such as machine learning. This paper explores the design of an effective threat hunting exercise, examining its role in complementing traditional security measures. It emphasizes the importance of advanced data analytics, threat intelligence integration, and automation to enhance the effectiveness of threat hunting. The proposed framework underscores the significance of the data collection and analysis process, improving detection rates and reducing the impact of advanced threats. This study also addresses the challenges faced in threat hunting, including skills gaps and the need for better tools, and outlines strategies for overcoming these obstacles to create more robust security programs.

Вертикальный контекст как объект и метод исследования поэтики постмодернизма
Authors: Кузнецова Т.Я.
Published: February 2025

В первой половине XX века технический прогресс освободил в человеке стихию бессознательного и иррационального. Воплощая свое время, постмодернизм создает ощущение нестабильности, всепредсказуемости, что выражается фрагментарностью и прерывистостью повествования. Постмодернисты утверждают монополию на отрицание однозначного смысла. Они исходят из положения, выдвинутого Р. Бартом, что осмысленность появляется в процессе становления текста. Вследствие этого мы сочли возможным определить теоретической основой нашего исследования теорию психосистематики, рассматривающей языковые явления в процессе их функционирования. Язык понимается как система, элементы которой представляют собой следы мыслительных операций, сформировавшихся в ходе онтогенеза и постоянно воспроизводимых в ходе речевого акта.

In the first half of the 20thcentury technical progress contributed to releasing the unconscious and irrational parts of the human mind. Embodying its time, postmodernism creates a sense of instability, all-predictability, expressed by the fragmentation and discontinuity of the narrative. Postmodernists assert a monopoly on the denial of the unambiguous meaning. The author proceeds from Barthes’ point of view that meaningfulness emerges in the process of text formation. Therefore, the theory of psychosystematics, which considers linguistic phenomena in the process of their functioning, is accepted as the theoretical basis of the study. Language is the system whose elements represent traces of thought operations formed during ontogenesis and constantly reproduced during the speech act. The novelty of the study lies in the consideration of the vertical context as the basis of the postmodernist text, providing its perception and understanding. Its theoretical significance consists in understanding postmodern aesthetics as a combination of literary tradition with innovative methods of artistic intent.

Environmental problems represent one of the greatest threats to humanity, which is why environmental sustainability has become an issue of great relevance. In this context, sociodemographic factors are considered to play a fundamental role in the investigation of sustainable consumption behavior, particularly among residents of Indigenous communities. The present study aims to evaluate sustainable consumption behavior in relation to sociodemographic factors in indigenous communities in the Amazon region of Peru. Data were collected through a survey applied to a sample of 319 people selected by stratified probability sampling. The conceptual model and hypotheses were tested by multivariate analysis and structural equation modeling, using the principal component analysis method for factor extraction. As a result, the research revealed a positive connection between pro-environmental factors and sustainable behavioral intention. However, although sustainable behavioral intention was strong, it did not always translate directly into sustainable practices. Significant differences in gender, age, education, income, and occupation were identified as factors influencing sustainable practices. The results highlight the complexity of sociodemographic factors in the adoption of sustainable lifestyles in Indigenous communities. These findings provide a crucial basis for the development of tailored intervention strategies and the formulation of contextualized policies that promote sustainable consumption in these communities.

Published: February 2025

This study investigates the experiences of LGBT learners regarding LGBT bullying in the Sekhukhune district. This study utilised a qualitative phenomenological study approach. It eomplyed semi-structured interviews as technique for data collection. Five LGBT learners were purposively selected from three secondary schools in the rural village of Sekhukhune, Limpopo province, South Africa. Their ages ranged from 14 to 17 year-old and faced continuous bullying at school and in his community, ultimately leading to his tragic death. The results showed that even minor instances of bullying is crucial to prevent them from escalating. This study recommends raising the awareness, dispel misconceptions, and educate communities and schools about LGBT issues. It gives all stakeholders a platform on how to eliminate and manage bullying in schools. This study is significant because it includes learners' perspectives, which are often overlooked in prior research.
Causes of learners’ misbehaviours at primary schools in the Makonde district, Zimbabwe: A stakeholders’ concerns
Authors: Zambezi Fortunate
Published: February 2025

Misbehaviours are one of the major problems rampant in primary schools and hinder the learners’ academic performance. Hence, it is a concern for all stakeholders. This study explores the causes of learners’ misbehaviours at primary schools in Makonde district, Zimbabwe. It also intended to determine factors that influence the leaners’ misbehaviours. It adopted a qualitative approach and interpretive paradigm. A descriptive survey research design was also employed. Two head teachers, ten teachers, and twenty learners were selected from two primary schools as participants in this study. Data was collected from questionnaires, observation, and document analysis. The results showed that learners’ misbehaviours could be caused due to poor parenting, peer pressure, mass media influence, permissive school environments, drug abuse, home background, and the social environments where learners live. The results revealed that learners’ misbehaviours lead to poor academic performance, as learners who misbehaved always perform badly academically. This study recommended a collaborative effort between teachers and parents to curb misbehaviours. It further suggests using guidance and counselling in schools to reduce the rate of misbehaviours amongst primary school learners. It is recommended that further studies be conducted on the same topic but from a broader perspective.
Wasteland plants can be prospected as potential source of commercially important cellulose
Authors: Devi Jupitora , Roy Baishali , Kalita Dipul , Bhattacharyya Nabanita
Published: February 2025

Being present in all plants, cellulose is the most abundantly found natural polymer on earth and is extensively used for various commercial purposes. Conventional sources of commercial cellulose include the forest woods, fibres like cotton, jute, flax, hemp, sisal etc. and agricultural by-products like rice husk, sugarcane bagasse etc. However, the potential of the wasteland plants, which produce considerable biomass despite of various environmental stresses, has not been explored adequately. In this study, we have extracted and characterized cellulose from five wasteland plants viz. Senna alata, Calotropis gigantea, Solanum torvum, Solanum myriacanthum and Clerodendrum infortunatum, which thrive well under adverse environmental conditions and grow naturally and abundantly in wastelands. Results from FTIR and XRD analyses reveal that the extracted cellulose fibres, with a crystallinity index ranging from almost 45 - 66%, are at par with cellulose from other non-conventional sources that are used in commercial and pharmaceutical applications and to obtain various cellulose derivatives of commercial importance. This work demonstrates novel information on wasteland plants as potential and sustainable options as sources of cellulose to reduce the burden on natural forests, imposed for collection of woods to produce commercial cellulose.

Antares: Variability of the Nearby M Supergiant and Core Collapse Type II Supernova Progenitor
Authors: Marici Ed , Guinan Edward
Published: February 2025

Antares A is a bright ∼0.6–1.3 mag irregular/semi-regular variable M1.5 Iab star. Antares with Betelgeuse (M2.5 Iab) are the two nearest red supergiant, core-collapse Type-II supernova progenitors. Unlike Betelgeuse, Antares A has a resolved companion (B4V: Antares B) and is near its birthplace in the Upper Scorpius OB Association. We analyzed ∼70 yr of photometry mostly from the American Variable Star Observers database and Hipparcos. Due to its southern declination (−26

4), accurate visual photometry from mid-northern latitudes is difficult where air masses often exceed z > 3.0. As a result, Antares has fewer, generally lower quality visual-magnitude measurements. We vetted the observations, applying less weight to the visual observations made at high airmasses. The photoelectric observations were given higher weights. Period analyses were conducted utilizing the CLEANest Power-Spectrum and weighted wavelet Z-transform Wavelet programs provided in the Peranso-3 period analysis software. The results are compared to Betelgeuse.
