The Evaluation of the Impact of VE for Shortening Construction Periods and VE for Changing Construction Methods on the Occurrence of Disasters at Construction Sites
Authors:   Korea Safety Culture Society, Kwon Yun Soo , Park Jong Yong
Published: November 2024

This study examines the impact of Value Engineering (VE) for shortening construction periods and changing construction methods on disaster occurrences at construction sites. While past research has focused on cost and time savings, this study explores the relationship between VE and construction-related accidents, particularly falls and collapses. An online survey of 206 construction professionals from Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon was conducted, with data analyzed using multiple regression and mediation analysis. The findings show that both types of VE significantly influence falls and collapses, with construction period and construction cost as mediators. VE for shortening construction periods affects disasters indirectly through construction period, while VE for changing methods does so through construction cost. These results indicate that VE can increase accident risks, highlighting the need to balance efficiency with safety. Safety reviews during design and risk assessments during construction are essential. Ensuring sufficient construction periods and costs, along with developing integrated models to enhance VE safety, are critical to improving safety management and policy in the construction industry.
Constitutional status and management system of the right to health as a fundamental right of the state
Authors:   Korea Safety Culture Society, Cha Su Bong , Kim Eun A
Published: November 2024

It is very important and meaningful to systematically consider the system and meaning of the health rights stipulated in the constitution, which is directly related to the health of the people. The constitutional right to health means that the state will take responsibility for health, which is a necessary and sufficient condition for leading a happy life. The right to health has emerged as an area of interest to all citizens as they experience medical services in times of crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the expansion of medical school enrollment. However, discussions on the right to health in public law have been limited. Accordingly, in order to examine the status of the right to health within the constitutional norms, the Constitutional Court's precedents and laws related to the right to health were investigated to clarify the status and content of the right to health. This was a task to legally specify the right to health and to define its substantive meaning. The right to health is a practical task of the state's duty to protect fundamental rights and can be said to be the core of social fundamental rights. The right to health under the Constitution is a human rights protection norm that realizes human dignity and value as stipulated in Article 10 of the Constitution, which guarantees a healthy and enjoyable life for each citizen, and has been established in a system and status as a public interest norm that guarantees the right to life and the right to health. To make this concrete, we categorized the management system into citizen-centered infectious disease response and strengthening of health and medical capacity, expansion of public medical services through improved accessibility to health, and improvement of quality of life through linkage of medical and welfare services. In order to realize the right to health as stipulated in the Constitution, the state should recognize that it is a core value norm of social fundamental rights and implement policies that prioritize investment of national financial resources and manpower.

Metodologia do processo de desenvolvimento de guias cirúrgicos para correção de deformidades angulares e rotacionais na medicina veterinária
Authors: Barros Sulamita da Silva , Galvão Andrey Carlos , Silva Calebe Valadares , Costa Anderson Figueredo
Published: November 2024

Com a crescente valorização dos animais de estimação, a medicina veterinária enfrenta um momento propício para a inovação em seus métodos e tecnologias. A manufatura aditiva (MA), também conhecida como impressão 3D, tem sido amplamente utilizada na medicina humana para aprimorar processos pré-operatórios, como simulações cirúrgicas e confecção de próteses e guias cirúrgicos. No entanto, sua aplicação na medicina veterinária ainda é limitada. A MA permite a produção de componentes a partir de modelos tridimensionais gerados por softwares CAD, possibilitando a criação de peças com geometrias complexas e reduzindo custos e tempo de fabricação. Essa tecnologia é ideal para a produção de biomodelos anatômicos e guias cirúrgicos, essenciais para a realização de cirurgias mais precisas. A proposta deste trabalho é explorar a integração entre engenharia mecânica e medicina veterinária, demonstrando a metodologia necessária para o desenvolvimento de guias cirúrgicos voltados à correção de deformidades angulares e rotacionais de esqueleto em cães e gatos. Utilizando simulações e representações virtuais, o estudo visa apresentar todo o processo de fabricação desses dispositivos, que são normalmente produzidos em resina autoclavável e utilizados durante as cirurgias. Os guias cirúrgicos, que podem ser de corte, posicionamento e furação, são projetados para seguir a anatomia do paciente, facilitando o procedimento cirúrgico e garantindo que a operação ocorra conforme planejada. Além de otimizar o planejamento cirúrgico, a utilização de guias produzidos por MA representa um avanço significativo na medicina veterinária, proporcionando mais segurança e eficiência nos procedimentos. A proposta é, portanto, contribuir para uma maior adoção de tecnologias de engenharia na área veterinária, assegurando que tanto os animais quanto os profissionais de saúde se beneficiem de inovações que já demonstraram seu valor na medicina humana. Com isso, esperamos incentivar futuras pesquisas e aplicações que ampliem o uso da MA e de outros recursos tecnológicos na medicina veterinária, promovendo um cuidado mais assertivo e eficaz para os pets.
O uso séries e jogos na educação básica a partir do método praxiológico
Authors: Macedo Jane Teixeira do Vale , Silva Suely dos Santos , Borges-Gonçalves Humberto
Published: November 2024

Este estudo explora as possibilidades pedagógicas de uso de séries e jogos na escola de educação básica e, para isso, orienta-se pelo método praxiológico de Pierre Bourdieu. Busca-se compreender a complexa dinâmica social em que a escola está inserida, relacionando o protagonismo juvenil exercido no mundo virtual com a formação crítica, autônoma e cidadã dos(as) estudantes no mundo real. Nessa perspectiva, a pesquisa toma a série O gambito da rainha, cujo tema central é o jogo de xadrez, e a analisa como recurso audiovisual que pode ser integrado ao ambiente escolar para promover o desenvolvimento de capitais culturais, linguísticos e sociais. O estudo propõe, portanto, a ampliação das inúmeras formas de capital que o(a) estudante possui por meio da incorporação de novos habiti no ambiente escolar. Ao refletir sobre a função transformadora da escola na construção de novos habiti e na democratização do conhecimento, o estudo propõe que esses recursos audiovisuais podem transformar a experiência escolar, incentivando a participação ativa, o protagonismo e a autonomia dos(as) estudantes em seu processo de aprendizagem. Por fim, o estudo argumenta, que, ao se mudar o habitus do(a) estudante, o seu campo de atuação também mudará e se ampliará, visto que, conforme propôs Bourdieu, o habitus é uma estrutura estruturante formada por um conjunto de normas, regras e preceitos sociais que introduzem e marcam a mente do indivíduo e criam um estilo subjetivo de vida, que determinará o seu campo social de atuação.

Authors: Oliveira Pedro Lucas Louzada de , Silva Adriano Frutuoso da
Published: November 2024

A descaracterização de barragens de mineração tem se tornado um tema de extrema relevância e urgência no cenário global contemporâneo. Diante dos recentes desastres e tragédias ambientais decorrentes do rompimento de barragens de mineração, no Brasil em 2015 e 2019, a necessidade de implementar processos eficientes e seguros para a desativação e recuperação dessas estruturas se tornou imperativa. A complexidade inerente a esse tipo de empreendimento demanda uma abordagem criteriosa e abrangente na avaliação das opções disponíveis. A simples seleção de uma alternativa com base em um único critério, como o custo financeiro ou prazo, por exemplo, pode resultar em consequências adversas e impactos negativos tanto do ponto de vista técnico, quanto econômico, ambiental e social. Este trabalho tem como objetivo explorar a importância da análise de alternativas considerando critérios múltiplos. A metodologia consiste na análise das alternativas propostas, contemplando a definição e ponderação das variáveis múltiplas avaliadas. O resultado obtido demonstra que a adoção de múltiplos critérios, que englobem não apenas aspectos econômicos, mas também ambientais, sociais, técnicos e de segurança, foi fundamental para garantir uma decisão embasada e sustentável. Foi evidenciado que a análise de múltiplos critérios também foi capaz de favorecer o processo de tomada de decisão nas soluções de descaracterização de barragens de mineração, facilitando a rastreabilidade e entendimento entre as diversas partes interessadas envolvidas em projetos dessa natureza.
The Conflict and Integration of Environmental Law and Commercial Law: Exploring Environmental Responsibility in International Trade
Authors: Wu Yiman
Published: November 2024

The nexus between international trade and environmental protection is complex and of great significance. Policymakers, including the World Trade Organization (WTO), aim to combine the two targets within the sustainable development framework. However, deficiencies such as the vague environmental exception clauses persist in the environmental legal framework. This paper seeks to solve the contradictions in the current legal framework and enhance the uniformity of international trade and environmental agreements. It will first demonstrate the current dilemma of environmental responsibility in international trade, particularly examining the strengths and limitation of the WTO law in resolving these conflicts. The discussion will then compare the landmark Shrimp-Turtle case with the recent European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and analyze the historical challenges these cases highlight. Ultimately, this paper aims to offer suggestions to improve the legislative framework for international environmental responsibility in trade, and to achieve its enforcement more effectively.

Interpretation of Western Images from a Postcolonial Perspective: A Case Study of Antonioni's Documentary Chung Kuo - Cina
Authors: Zhang Jipeng
Published: November 2024

This paper employs textual analysis and postcolonial theory to explore Michelangelo Antonioni's 1972 documentary Chung Kuo - Cina. The study delves into the film's portrayal of Chinese culture, people, and environment, focusing on how these depictions either reinforce or challenge Western audiences' expectations and prejudices. Antonioni's documentary is analyzed for its use of symbolism, cinematographic techniques, and scene selection in constructing an "exotic" image of China. Through a postcolonial lens, the paper examines how the documentary demonstrates Orientalist perspectives, reflecting Western stereotypes and biases towards China. Furthermore, it explores the broader implications of these representations in the context of cultural exchange and power dynamics. The analysis also considers the historical and political backdrop of the film's production, including the Cultural Revolution and China's efforts to shape its international image. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of how visual media shape and disseminate national images in cross-cultural contexts, highlighting the complexities of postcolonial identity construction and the enduring impact of Orientalism in contemporary visual culture.

Authors: Mai Zitong , Ouyang Yizhi , Yang Rongwei
Published: November 2024

The female protagonist Katniss portrayed in the "Hunger Games" film series breaks free from the constraints of mainstream films on female protagonist images. Such a young woman can make brave choices as the protagonist in a tyrannical and chaotic world full of oppression and slaughter, not relying on those men and igniting a revolutionary wave. This is extremely rare in mainstream commercial films. In this paper, text analysis and comparative analysis will be used as the main research methods. First of all, with the help of Hofstede’s theory of cultural dimensions, the Hunger Games series of films is carefully analyzed, the construction process of Katniss’s image and his personality characteristics are deeply explored, and an attempt is made to bring a new interpretation to the audience. The purposes of this study are to draw attention to how important Katniss’s role has been in subverting conventional gender norms in movies and to provide some references for future studies.

Assessment of the Impact of China's Carbon Emissions Trading Pilot Policy on the Export Product Quality
Authors: Li Runfei
Published: November 2024

To achieve the "dual carbon" goals, China has established a carbon emissions trading market to reduce corporate carbon emissions through market mechanisms. The effect of China's carbon trading pilot programme on export product quality is examined in this study. The analysis employs the quasi-natural experiment provided by this policy, focusing on the quality of exported goods. From 2009 to 2016, panel data from 31 provinces and municipalities created a difference-in-differences (DID) model. This model allows for a comprehensive examination of the impact at the city, industry, and destination country levels. The results show that the quality of exported goods is much improved by the adoption of the carbon trading pilot programme. Additionally, the examination of heterogeneity shows that the influence of the policy is greatest in central cities, with less noticeable effects in the eastern and western areas. The report offers suggestions for advancing carbon trading policies at its conclusion, including the adoption of customized strategies that take into account the distinctive qualities of certain geographic areas. These recommendations are intended to maximise the effectiveness of the carbon trading system and support China's broader environmental and economic objectives.

Authors: Chen Xiaotang
Published: November 2024

Formally proposed in 2009, China's high-speed rail ‘go global’ was effectively promoted in 2013 with the proposal of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which expanded China's high-speed rail overseas investment to a global scale. Studying the impact of China's high-speed rail (HSR) investment overseas is of great significance for the continuous promotion of BRI. Based on the panel data of 46 countries along the Belt and Road from 2006 to 2021, the difference-in-difference method (DID) is used to evaluate the impact of China's HSR overseas investment on the economic growth of corresponding countries. Besides, heterogeneity analysis in terms of region is carried out in this paper. The empirical results show that, first, China's overseas investment in HSR promotes the economic growth of the countries along the Belt and Road, and this conclusion is confirmed by the parallel trend test. Second, compared with other regions, China's HSR investment has a more obvious positive effect on the economic growth of Asian countries.

Published: November 2024

La labor curatorial de la profesora Anna Maria Guasch en la exposición La memoria del otro en la era de lo global enraiza en su trayectoria académica e investigadora. Esta muestra, que itineró por Bogotá, Santiago de Chile y La Habana entre 2009 y 2011, refleja los enfoques de esta autora con respecto a algunos de sus temas de interés, como son la interculturalidad y el impacto de la globalización en el arte contemporáneo. La propuesta se enmarca en una genealogía de “exposiciones identitarias” iniciada en 2002 con la curaduría de Okwui Enwezor para la Documenta 11 de Kassel, que ha sido revisada por la propia comisaria en sus trabajos teóricos y publicaciones. La cuidada lista de artistas fue ampliándose en cada itinerancia. La profesora Guasch considera los proyectos seleccionados como “repositorios de memoria” y observa en ellos rasgos transversales, tales como su abordaje de los procesos de traducción y de mediación respecto a la infoesfera contemporánea. De este modo, el conjunto propone una geografía planetaria específica de lugares y momentos en los que se producen diálogos entre lo local y lo global, generándose una comprensión más dinámica de las narrativas identitarias bajo el prisma de la interculturalidad.

Authors: Khalid Amina Nabeel , Abu-Resha Rasmiya Abd
Published: November 2024

Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are primarily caused by Escherichia coli. Various genes in UPEC isolates are considered virulence factors that cause illness in humans. Objective: To identify the adhesive genes sfa and afa in UPEC strains isolated from UTI patients that form biofilm and to investigate the impact of probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus) on their expression. Methods: Between October and December 2023, 140 samples were obtained from Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) patients and urinary catheter specimens at Al-Yarmouk Hospital and Ghazi Al-Hariri Hospital for Surgical Specialties locations in Baghdad, Iraq. All bacterial isolates were identified using the VITEK-2 system and standard biochemical testing. The isolates were subsequently subjected to PCR to detect adhesive genes sfa and afa using primers that were specifically designed. The MRS broth was centrifuged, and Lactobacillus acidophilus extract was obtained as a result. Then, isolates that contained two genes were subjected to a Lactobacillus acidophilus extract test. Results: The formation of biofilm of UPEC isolates was (33.33%) a strong biofilm-former, (61.90%) a moderate biofilm, and (4.76%) a weak biofilm. The sfa and afa genes were present at a frequency of 80.95% and 14.28%, respectively. At least one adhesive gene was present in most isolates. Conclusions: Most of the isolates showed a decrease in the expression of sfa and afa genes because of the effect of L. acidophilus on gene expression.

In recent years, novel strategies to combat (multi-) drug-resistant microorganisms have been investigated. Essential oils (EOs) with bactericidal, bacteriostatic, and fungicidal activity have been used to treat infections and in food sanitation. This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial and modulating activity of Cinnamomum cassia (cinnamon) and Eugenia caryophyllus (clove) essential oils against microorganisms isolated from goat milk processing plants in northeastern Brazil, and their synergistic effect when combined with antimicrobial agents. The microdilution technique was used to obtain the minimum inhibitory (MIC) and bactericidal concentrations (MBC) and the antibiotics studied were ampicillin, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, cephalothin, ceftazidime, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, meropenem, norfloxacin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, and tetracycline. Klebsiella pneumoniae (MIC50) and Escherichia coli (MIC90) were sensitive to cinnamon EO. Clove EO did not inhibit the growth of either microorganism. In regard to MBC, cinnamon EO had a bactericidal effect against six K. pneumoniae and six E. coli samples. For the antibiotics evaluated, a greater synergistic effect was observed for cinnamon EO associated with gentamicin and meropenem, and antagonistic effect with ampicillin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, and tetracycline. As such, EOs may be an alternative for the control of pathogenic microorganisms.
