THE MAIN FACTORS INFLUENCING THE DAMAGE AND POPULATION DYNAMICS OF CAMERARIA OHRIDELLA (DESCHKA & DIMIC, 1986) IN URBAN PLANTATIONS OF KYIV REGION
Authors: Bondareva L. , Tarnavskyi N.
Published: January 2024

In Ukraine, the horse-chestnut leaf-miner (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae, Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dimic, 1986) was first discovered in 2002 in the Lviv region. Currently, the species is widespread in Ukraine and its range continues to expand. The consequence of the life activity of the miner lies in severe damage to the leaves and premature defoliation, negatively affecting the accumulation of reserves of nutrients necessary to maintain the vitality of plants in the winter and restore growth in the spring. The article provides data on the first detection and further spread of the invasive pest of horse-chestnuts C. ohridella in the world and on the territory of Ukraine. The phytosanitary condition of horse-chestnut trees (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) in the conditions of urban plantations in Makariv town, Buchansky district, Kyiv region in 2022 was studied. The data of the seasonal dynamics of the number of the pest, tracked with the help of pheromone monitoring, are given. In the course of route surveys of horse chestnut plantations, the phytosanitary condition of the trees on both sides of the road in the city of Makariv along Dmitriy Rostovsky Street and on the territory of the Makariv Lyceum No. 1 was assessed according to the following criterias: damage to the crown, the degree of damage to the leaf plates, and the overall vitality of the trees. The condition of each tree was assessed with a certain number of points according to the appropriate methods. According to the conducted surveys, it was found that the trees that were located on the isolated territory of the Lyceum suffered less damage from the phytophagus during the month and had significantly higher vitality and decorativeness, compared to the horse-chestnuts that grew along the road. Phytophage pheromone monitoring showed that the number of C. ohridella recorded in traps on both sides of the roadway on Dmitry Rostovsky Street significantly exceeded the number of insects caught on the territory of the educational institution. A clear inverse relationship between the number of insects caught and meteorological conditions was established: during heavy rains with high air humidity, the flight of the chestnut miner almost completely stopped, and the number of insects in the traps was close to zero, and vice versa.

Published: January 2024

Harvesting energy from multiple hybrid sources and efficiently combining the harvested energies is critical for enabling self-powered devices. Designing an efficient energy combiner is a technical challenge and is non-trivial. Various factors viz. kinds of sources, harvestable energy level and range from the sources, electrical characteristics of sources (low current and high voltage, high current and low voltage, capacitive, inductive etc.), impedance matching (resistive, resistive-reactive, modulus, complex conjugate etc.) of sources, sources scheduling algorithms for combiner, sources switching and control/trigger circuit losses, power conversion and management etc. influence the overall energy combiner’s efficiency. Considering that, this article presents a SPICE modelling and simulation framework for analyzing hybrid energy harvester combiner topologies such as Inductor sharing, voltage level detection and powerORing for its power and energy flow characteristics, regulation, and energy combining efficiency. Such analysis through simulation enables arriving efficient combiner architecture for the chosen harvestable resources, source models, power management circuits and schemes etc. Based on a case study with three different kinds of sources, it has been observed that the voltage level detection technique with DC-DC converters results in the highest efficiency as compared with the other two topologies for such a scenario.
Review of lithium-ion, fuel cell, sodium-beta, nickel-based and metal-air battery technologies used in electric vehicles
Authors: KURTULMUŞ Zeyneb Nuriye , KARAKAYA Abdulhakim
Published: January 2024

Interest in electric vehicles (EV) or hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) is increasing day by day. These vehicles have many advantages as they operate more efficiently and do not cause noise or environmental pollution compared with conventional vehicles. However, it has some disadvantages. For some, it is the most important trust issue. An important criterion is that the daily vehicle cannot go to a sufficient range. Therefore, vehicle designs and applications continue to be made with high energy and power distribution, low performance, and high efficiency ESSs using two or more energy storage systems (ESS). In addition, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in EVs and HEVs. Although they have high power and energy estimations, their high duration, short freezing life or service life, and insufficient efficiency are the guides for executing different alternative solutions. The aim of this article is to create a different perspective by including unusual battery types and fuel consumption technology known as clean energy sources. The Zero Emlu Battery Research (ZEBRA) battery, which is seen as a future technology in EVs and HEVs in this article, features such as the operating principle of the nickel-based battery structure (Nickel-Cadmium, Nickel-Iron, Nickel-Zinc), operating temperature ranges, cycle lifetimes, and service lives. In addition to the lithium-air battery, which is a metal-air battery technology and is seen as a source of hope with its high energy densities in the future, it is also included. Comparisons between these batteries were made, and their applicability in HEVs and EVs was examined.
Assessing the feasibility of off-grid photovoltaic systems for rural electrification

Published: January 2024

In this investigation, the absence of an electricity grid in numerous locations, including military bases, tiny houses, and chalets, prompted the development of a model for providing electrical energy through an off-grid Photovoltaic (PV) system in Konya, Türkiye. The study delineates the daily energy consumption of a residential dwelling as 39,974 Wh/day, and the feasibility of satisfying this demand through the implementation of a 9.45 kWp PV system is scrutinized. The research encompasses the determination of optimal tilt and azimuth angles set at 35° and 0°, respectively. The maximum global effective irradiation intensity, recorded in August at 208.3 kWh/m², contrasts with the minimum intensity observed in December, registering at 106.2 kWh/m². Likewise, electricity production attained its zenith in August at 1,581.3 kWh, starkly contrasting its lowest level in December at 791 kWh. Modelling outcomes conclude that Solar Fraction (SF) values equate to unity during summer but fall below unity during winter. Furthermore, a surplus in electricity generation relative to demand is observed during the summer, resulting in the full charge of batteries. Evaluating the annual average SF, it is deduced that the modelled system fulfils 90.8% of the energy requirement. The Performance Ratio (PR), an additional pivotal parameter in PV systems, reaches its zenith at 0.865 in November and its nadir at 0.614 in August. This comprehensive study underscores the efficacy of the modelled off-grid PV system in meeting the energy demands of the selected residence, emphasizing the significance of seasonal variations and key performance metrics in assessing system performance.

RESEARCH OF AUDIO AND VIDEO TRAFFIC THE CHARACTERISTICS IN LOW-BANDWIDTH RADIO COMMUNICATION NETWORKS
Authors: STRELKOVSKAYA Irina , ZOLOTUKHIN Roman , PASCALENKO Viktoria
Published: January 2024

The construction of mass service systems, namely automated control systems, requires preliminary analysis and modeling of traffic in their communication networks. Mathematical models of various types of traffic have been developed for public networks, which allows to estimate the necessary functional characteristics of equipment for building a communication network, depending on the number of users. Low-bandwidth communication networks, which are built on the basis of ultra high frequency and very high frequency (UHF/VHF) radio stations, are distinguished by low speed, high delay and jitter of data transmission. To work in such communication networks, special data transmission protocols are adapted and developed. In this paper, a study of the characteristics of audio and video traffic in low-bandwidth communication networks is carried out, which are built on the basis of UHF/VHF radio stations, which will allow creating a software implementation of simulated traffic modeling for the further determination of the services availability at the stage of planning and designing the communication system. Two personal computers and two modern RF‑7850M-HH UHF/VHF radio stations were used to study the characteristics of audio traffic. The radio stations worked in three operating modes: narrowband mode with a fixed carrier frequency FF, narrowband mode with pseudo-random adjustment of the operating frequency QL1A, and wideband mode ANW2C. The voice was transmitted in digital mode using the built-in MELP 2400 codec, and the "iperf-v2.0.5" software was used to determine the characteristics of the audio traffic on personal computers connected to these radio stations. Two personal computers, two modern RF‑7850M‑HH UHF/VHF radio stations, a video encoder and a video camera were used to study video traffic characteristics. The radio stations operated in ANW2C broadband mode. To evaluate the characteristics of the video traffic, the Wireshark software was used on a personal computer, with the help of which the video broadcast from the video encoder was presented. It was found that voice transmission in low-speed communication networks based on UHF/VHF radio stations occupies a bandwidth of 2 Kbit/s - 2.5 Kbit/s, and when voice and data are simultaneously transmitted in radio stations, data buffering and jitter increase. The resolution, bitrate, FPS, and necessary bandwidth of video traffic that can be transmitted via UHF/VHF radio communication channels are determined. Based on the conducted research, recommendations are provided for the transmission of video traffic through low-bandwidth communication channels.

Medialidades biográficas, práticas de si e do mundo
Authors: Delory-Momberger Christine , Bourguignon Jean-Claude
Published: January 2024

As noções de “medium” e de “medialidade” trazem uma renovação fecunda para maneira de se conceber as relações das mediações com o si mesmo. Elas permitem mostrar o papel decisivo do medium, de sua natureza e de suas formas de modelagem específicas que levam ao reconhecimento de que o sujeito se constitui mediante ações práticas com o mediums pelos quais e nos quais a subjetividade se constitui. De modo que a noção de “práticas automediais” abrange todas as formas de expressão e de linguagem: falada e escrita, fotográfica, visual, auditiva, gráfica, plástica, digital, corporal, gestual, cênica entre outras. Por conseguinte, a reflexão sobre a “medialidade”, ao tempo em que amplia o campo da prática, traz aberturas para os procedimentos de formação e de abordagens mais conscientes do papel constitutivo das mediações nos processos de construção do sujeito.

Através da narrativa da professora participante, constatou-se que ela enfrentou barreiras de acessibilidade em espaços que deveriam ser acessíveis a todos. A análise revelou também percepções permeadas por preconceito, notadamente relacionadas ao capacitismo, e uma tendência a enxergar o corpo com deficiência como “anormal”. As vivências relatadas nesta pesquisa desvendam experiências significativas na formação acadêmica de pessoas com deficiência física e contribuem para a reflexão sobre a construção de uma sociedade mais equitativa e inclusiva.
MOBY-DICK, MODERNISM AND THE “POST-DEATH” NARRATION
Authors: Vujošević Vladimir
Published: January 2024

There is a peculiar tendency among many first-person Modernist narrators to simulate the narrative perspective of “posthumousness” (as if these accounts were somehow narrated by the dead). The procedure (that could be termed the “post-death narration”) seems to be present in various proto-modernist and Modernist works such as Conrad's Heart of Darkness, Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom!, T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land, etc. This narrative perspective is entwined with the trauma discourse, and the article argues that some of the best-known Modernist techniques (like the stream of consciousness) are based on the Gothic model of spectral narration. In the works of the genre, ghosts are often portrayed as traumatized, incommunicative, and disoriented “shattered selves” eternally entrapped in the closed space of a single, repetitive traumatic memory. This also seems to be the case with many Modernist narrators. The article shows various ways this genre convention of the Gothic has been (re)used in Modernist storytelling. Furthermore, the “post-death narration” could also be interpreted as a “symptom” of extreme subjectivity and epistemic frustration (which are typical features of Modernist narration in general). It is also claimed that the narrative perspective of “posthumousness” was first employed in Melville's Moby-Dick and that Ishmael, the narrator of the novel, could be seen as the “prototype” of this kind of Modernist “post-death” narration.
CULTURAL CAPITAL AND GENDER DISCRIMINATION IN THE FIELD OF EDUCATION: PIERRE BOURDIEU’S THEORY OF PRACTICE
Authors: Jalali Valeh , Kouchak Marzieh
Published: January 2024

Gender discrimination can be observed in all historical periods in diverse societies and cultures in all fields, especially in the field of education. Having chosen Parinoush Saniee’s The Book of Fate and Anne Brontë’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, the present paper attempts to plot complex connections between cultural capital, gender discrimination, and education. This paper scrutinizes and examines how cultural capital has engaged with and fostered gender discrimination in the field of education based on Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of practice. The findings of this study represent that the individuals’ culturallycreated habitus renders gender discrimination seems natural and therefore contributes to the continuation of masculine domination and women’s submissiveness in the field of education. This paper also demonstrates that women are ultimately submitted to the prevailing culture of the patriarchal society in which they live despite their efforts to resist the confinements imposed on them by that culture.
IN-SCHOOL READING AND FREE CHOICES – WHAT THE EIGHTH-GRADERS PREFER AND WHY
Authors: Popović Dušanka
Published: January 2024

Reading literacy is a key factor in education, life, and work in the modern age, which is recognized in the Montenegrin subject curricula for teaching the mother tongue and literature in primary (2017) and secondary schools (2020) and is noticeable in educational and knowledge outcomes aimed at the development of both different reading strategies and this demanding cognitive skill as a whole. Concerning the described topic, in this paper, we also cite the results of research into the reading interests of children and young people carried out in Montenegro and the region, and we also refer to international research from similar fields, given that the problem of (non)reading among young people is a global trend. The mentioned topic in the region was mostly researched at the high school age, but considering that the researched population (primary school eighth-graders) goes to high school as the next level of education, and a step forward in the development of literacy competence, of which reading is an inseparable part, the mentioned results we considered significant for our research. A comparison with similar research in the region and beyond has shown that, when it comes to the genre of literary works, and partly their titles, both inschool and out-of-school reading, the preferences of the respondents largely coincide with the choices of their peers from the region and beyond, which is why it is most likely contributed by a strong generational connection based on the possibilities provided by modern technology. The results of the research are proof that future dedicated readers, seekers of a good book, and sincere devotees can still be successfully formed during the teaching of literature in modern circumstances. Therefore, it is the task of adults, as creators and implementers of education, to dedicate themselves to the development of the reading of literary-artistic texts, in an organized and synergistic way, and to change themselves by accepting changes for the sake of those they educate.
COOPERATIVE LEARNING IN PRIMARY AND SECONDARY LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE EDUCATION
Authors: Grubor Jelena V.
Published: January 2024

Contemporary teaching methods and approaches are increasingly being directed towards learners (instead of teachers), learner competences (instead of abilities), learner autonomy and responsibility for learning (instead of viewing them as “empty recepticles”, i.e. passive participants in the learning process). Thus, learners and learner outcomes have been growingly placed at the forefront of modern-day teaching, which is visible both in scholarly papers within the educational studies, as well as tendencies in teaching practices and practical suggestions proposed by national education systems. In conclusion, despite the insightful comments given by a large number of the participants, some teachers still appear to cling to the belief that traditional classes and the teacher as the only relevant source of knowledge are crucial for complex teaching units (e.g. the introduction of a grammar unit that learners find difficult and complex). Finally, it is deemed necessary that teachers in Serbian state schools should be given support and trained in such a teaching approach. Consequently, the fact that a considerable number of the participants expressed their wish to attend a cooperative learning workshop is promising. Finally, in future studies, we aim to investigate not only the general perception of language teachers, but also their knowledge on concrete cooperative learning postulates to gain more valuable insights into the extent to which teachers are familiar with this teaching approach, but also to determine their beliefs and attitudes towards its actual use in the classroom. Such investigations might provide a step forward in Educational Studies, as well as Applied Linguistics.

Islamic inclusiveness is identical with the attitude of openness, tolerance and the spirit of cooperation both between adherents of Islam and with adherents of other religions. One of the big figures who initiated this is KH. Abdurrahman Wahid. To know the concept of inclusive Islamic education perspective according to KH. Abdurrahman Wahid and learning Islamic Education that is inclusive of current Islamic education. The type of research used in this research is library research. This research is a library research in which a lot of data collection is obtained through collecting data from various literatures. The literature studied is not limited to books or books, but is also obtained through documentation study materials, magazines, journals, and others. Meanwhile, the data analysis method used is content analysis. The results of this study state that the concept of Islamic education naturally should have an inclusive nature because Islam teaches respect for followers of other faiths and religions. Inclusive religion does not mean doubting their beliefs but accepting the existence of people of other religions/beliefs whose rights must be respected in society. With inclusive education, it is hoped that it will be able to foster a comprehensive view of students towards each other, make them aware that they are to cultivate an attitude of tolerance in differences.
Women’s Sexist Attitudes and Their Self-Silencing Tendency to Sexismthe Buffering Role of Personal Belief in a Just World and Gender Role-Related Attitudes
Authors: Grigoropoulos Iraklis
Published: January 2024

The current study tested the hypothesis that personal belief in a just world and gender role-related attitudes would mediate the effect of women’s sexist attitudes (hostile and benevolent sexism) on their self-silencing tendency to sexism. An online cross-sectional study was administered between September 2 and December 30, 2021. The total sample comprised two hundred and twenty-one respondents (Mage =38.22, _SD = 2.75)_. A between-subject, correlational design was utilized. Bootstrapping analysis for simple mediation models (Hayes, 2013; Model 4) was performed to test the current study’s hypothesis. This study demonstrates that gender role-related attitudes and a personal belief in a just world could act as a set of a system justifying beliefs buffering women’s motivation to challenge everyday sexism. The theoretical implication of this relationship is that individuals who endorse sexist attitudes and gender stereotypes are expected to exhibit corresponding behaviors.

A szerzői jog szabályrendszerének kialakítása során hosszú és küzdelmes munka eredménye, hogy a védelem valamennyi, az irodalom, a tudomány és a művészet területére eső alkotásra kiterjed, függetlenül annak minőségétől, mennyiségétől, a rá vonatkozó értékítélettől, azaz akár annak erkölcsi megítélésétől. A formalitásmentesen, azaz automatikusan keletkező szerzői jogi védelem tehát fő szabály szerint valamennyi egyéni, eredeti jellegű művetmegillet – ami a cenzúra elleni küzdelemmel karöltve komoly teljesítményként könyvelhető el az alkotás szabadságának biztosítása terén. Felmerül azonban a kérdés, hogy egy adott mű elérheti-e az erkölcstelenség olyan fokát, hogy annak kezelésére már nem elegendők a szerzői joghoz képest külső korlátnak minősülő eszközök, azaz szükséges-e egy ilyen körülményt a szerzői jog szabályrendszerén belül (is) kezelni (hasonlóan az iparjogvédelem területén látott néhány oltalmi formához). A jelen tanulmány a kérdést boncolgató vonatkozó szakirodalom és joggyakorlat áttekintése mellett arra igyekszik felhívni a figyelmet, hogy a szerzői jog sem távolodhat el a jóerkölcs zsinórmértékétől, de a szabályrendszerén belül megtalálni a helyét nem kihívásoktól mentes feladat.
A Review on Global Homelessness: An Attempt to Understand the Phenomenon in the Nigerian Context
Authors: Famous Joseph Aigbolosimon
Published: January 2024

This paper examines global perspectives on homelessness and contributes to scientific knowledge in this area. The work is motivated by my academic and research background particularly my doctoral dissertation. It examines the concept, nature and theories of homelessness from a global perspective to create an understanding of the phenomenon in the Nigerian context. The study reflects the conceptual complexity of homelessness in the light of the criteria that are used to define adequate housing worldwide. It reflects different theoretical dimensions of the study of homelessness including homelessness as a personal pathology, homelessness as a structural dysfunctionality and homelessness as a combination of both. It emphasises the importance of field, recognitionand structuration theories in understanding homelessness. It also highlights the importance of the five structures of ‘relational model’ and ‘critical realism’ in understanding the mechanism of the emergence of homelessness in Nigeria and concludes with some relevant facts and findings.The study examines homelessness in global and local contexts to examine the conceptualisation and theoretical framework of homelessness along with related findings in a multifaceted sense to understand the phenomenon from different perspectives. The literature is reviewed considering the relevant conceptual background, applied theories, arguments and relevant findings. The study reveals the conceptual and theoretical diversity and reflects on the complexity, heterogeneity and dynamics of the phenomenon around the globe. The conceptual diversity of the phenomenon is a factor of the dynamic theoretical frameworks. They range from personal pathologies to structuraldysfunctionalities to new orthodox and critical realism. In Nigeria, the problem is more structurally influenced than personally influenced. The duality of agency in structuration theory, the (4) model structure and the field of structural relations expand the understanding of the causes of homelessness in Nigeria.

The mental health status of homosexuals has attracted more and more attention from the society. Based on the influence of factors such as the pressure of the current social environment, the group faces the pressure from itself, the family and the society, the mental health level is also affected. Psychological resilience plays an important protective factor in mental health, so this study explores the influencing factors of psychological resilience of Chinese gay men, to provide scientific basis for maintaining the mental health level of the group. In this study, 16 gay men were interviewed by qualitative interview method. The results show that the main factors affecting the psychological resilience of gay men are: external environmental resource factors (parental rearing style, social support), internal individual factors (self-esteem, self-efficacy, personality, coping style), and the interaction of all factors, so as to form individual psychological resilience. In the future, the corresponding psychological intervention plan can be designed according to these factors to intervene in the low resilience of the male gay group, so as to promote the harmonious development of their body and mind.
The Dual Nature of Diana Arbus's Photographic Art
Authors: Ma Margaret
Published: January 2024

Diana Arbus is a photographer to be criticized for unethical practices, yet her unique photographic style has left a lasting imprint on civilization. She's good at capturing marginalized societal groups, confronting the harsh realities and ugliness. Her work influenced people's contemplation of photographic art, while simultaneously subjecting her to significant ethical controversies. Arbus's photographs evoke feelings of terror and discomfort, but at the same time, she shed light on the people and experiences hidden in the shadows, revealing the greatness and sacredness of suffering and its essence. This gave rise to an aesthetic of alienation that contradicts traditional aesthetics. In Arbus's photographic works, there is a juxtaposition and fusion of oppositions between art and morality. Traditional aesthetics pursue happiness, harmony, and beauty, whereas Arbus's photographs present pain, distortion, and ugliness. Consequently, some argue that Arbus violates the moral principles of beauty. However, on the other hand, Arbus's works also bring visibility, attention, and understanding to marginalized groups, achieving a fusion of art and morality in a divergent way.

Authors: Liu Yuzhen
Published: January 2024

This paper explores optimized combination strategies for implementing effective hybrid work models in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the post-COVID-19 pandemic landscape. As remote and on-site workflows become increasingly intertwined, SMEs face distinct challenges in strategically adopting these blended models catered to their unique organizational constraints. This research aims to address the lack of tailored guidelines for SMEs by consolidating insights across multiple disciplines including leadership, organizational behavior, and digital transformation theory. We employ a mixed-methods approach combining surveys, interviews, case studies and longitudinal tracking to examine diverse aspects of hybrid model efficacy in SMEs. Key results reveal that balance between flexibility and in-person collaboration is crucial, but optimum ratios vary across industries. Additionally, inclusion risks must be mitigated and policies personalized to meet generational preferences. Practical recommendations focused on change management and leadership upskilling can significantly enhance SME productivity. We conclude that purpose-driven hybridity centered on belonging and resilience holds strategic advantages for SMEs navigating workforce transformation. Further comparative research can reveal additional success factors for context-specific hybrid work models.

Published: January 2024

The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of organic waste (pig manure and chicken layer droppings) on the production of house fly larvae (HFL) and its nutritive value. A completely randomised design was used, with three treatments (pig manure, chicken layer dropping and equal combination of the pig and chicken excreta) replicated six times. The data for biomass reduction, larvae wet and dry weight, moisture, ash, crude fibre, crude protein, fat, calcium and phosphorus were analysed using analysis of variance. While the least square means were generated using the Tukey's honestly significant difference. Pig manure produced the highest yield of HFL significantly (P < 0.05), as indicated by both wet (3.61 g) and dry (0.63 g) larvae weight. Introduction of HFL reduced organic waste by 39–42%. Furthermore, results indicated HFL to contain high protein 50-53%, considerable levels of Ca (1.32–1.465%) and P (1.72–2.09%) on as is basis. It can be concluded that pig manure and chicken layer droppings are suitable substrates for the production of HFL, which contain a suitable nutritional value for use as a protein source in animal diets. The study recommends further studies on HFL production on a larger scale for inclusion in animal diets.
