HRD Conducts Research Using Public Sector Banks and Private Sector Banks
Authors: Sharma Prof. Nidhi
Published: July 2024

The banking sector, which is reliant on the health of the public, was discussed in this article. Only people use its services, and they are also the only ones who directly influence productivity. Up until 1969, banking was still in some ways a traditional enterprise. when the Indian government took over major banks. Banks became a powerful force for social change after being nationalized and ceased to be the sole source of finance for industry. The assertion that the banking industry is increasing astronomically is supported by additional proof in the form of statistics. The Indian banking industry needs to be governed by banking professionals if it is to profit from the sector on a global scale. The goal of the study is to look at four important factors that have a big impact on how the banking industry develops in private sector banks: selection and recruitment policies, training, performance appraisal, and compensation. For this descriptive and exploratory analysis, the researcher used a standard random sampling technique. In the study, employee impressions of the HRD environment in the two largest banks are assessed. Additionally, it looks to examine if bank employees working for public and private sector banks have different perspectives on each facet of the HRD climate. The HRD climate is divided into three categories: General Climate, OCTAPACE, and HRD Mechanisms. 200 employees submitted the primary data using a standardized questionnaire with 40 items. KEY WORDS Performance review, bank employees, private banks, and methods of human resource management.

Antibiotic resistance of Salmonella, particularly multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains have emerged and are becoming more prevalent, which is a very serious issue worldwide. This study sought to determine the antibiotic resistance profiles of Salmonella isolated from raw chicken meats, which were collected at selected slaughterhouses in Peninsular Malaysia and evaluating its biofilm-forming capability on surfaces. Antibiotic resistance of 135 Salmonella isolates against 12 antibiotics were investigated via disk diffusion method. The biofilm-forming ability of the isolates was evaluated by crystal violet staining using two media; a tryptic soy broth (TSB) and a 1/20 TSB with incubation periods of 24 and 48 h at 37 °C. A total of 118 strains of Salmonella showed higher resistance to erythromycin (87.41%), followed by tetracycline (85.19%;); 93 of the isolates (68.88%) were multi-drug resistant. A greater quantity of Salmonella was able to produce biofilm when grown in 1/20-TSB (90.37%) compared to the growth in TSB (88.15%), respectively. The findings in this study showed high prevalence, antibiotic resistance, and the biofilm forming ability of Salmonella strains isolated from raw chicken meats, suggesting that effective measures are required to ensure food safety in the poultry industry.
Emberek és a háborúk
Authors: Braun László
Published: July 2024

A háborúk végigkísérik az emberi történelmet, s olyannyira részei a múltnak, hogy azok a történeti gondolkodás szerves, kihagyhatatlan elemei. A nagy háborúk esetenként történelmi korszakhatárokat jelentenek. Az bizonyos, hogy a háborúk után az élet már sohasem tér vissza ugyanabba a mederbe, és előre nem látható módon, kiszámíthatatlanul változtatják meg a jövőt. Egyes filozófusok – mint Kant vagy Hobbes – az emberi természet részének tartották a háborúkat, s inkább a háborúktól mentes állapotot gondolták természetellenesnek. A háború az ember műve. Nem magától, előre nem látható módon robban ki, hanem akkor lesz, amikor akarják annak kitörését. A tanulmány a múlt mintáin keresztül kutatja, hogyan lehet az ellenséges érzelmekből háború; miképpen viszonyul a háborúhoz a kereszténység; milyen a benne keresett igazság; szabályozhatók-e a háborúk, vagy éppen a benne alkalmazott erőszak; kötelesség lehet-e a részvétel a háborúban.

With the advancements in technology, electrical energy has become a basic need to support every field of life including Electric Vehicles (EVs), Industry automation, security networks and communication systems. This, in turn, demands a high order of design, protection and measurement setup of power transmission from the energy source to the end users (load) with minimum loss of energy. All types of loads need a nominal supply voltage to operate, which necessary for its safe operation. Usually the nominal-rated voltage allows ±5% variation tolerance in the operation of loads, without affecting the equipment. The transmission lines that connect several smart grids are called as interconnection, by using it the stability and proficiency can be increased. It should provide reliable and secure communication, with a low-cost solution. Hence, in this research paper, an efficient communication system based on wireless sensor networks will be under consideration, to ensure good quality of service for smart grids. The initial two points that are required to be covered include 1) research on optimum network topology to connect several smart grids and 2) interference cancellation to avoid errors in transmission due to the induced field from the power lines. In addition, 3) the wireless sensor network will be used to support efficient data collection, self-organization of the network and data reduction by removing the redundancy. Finally, 4) development of data prediction algorithm to reduce the transmission rate and latency. Overall, these approaches will help in development of smart network to reduce the energy wastage, ensure nominal supply voltage, increased reliability and improved communication network as compared to existing solutions. The presented work includes the two sorts of wind and solar energy in ordinary working environments and illuminates the energy trade between buyers and power Production Company.

The Influence of Pump-Turbine Specific Speed on Hydraulic Transient Processes
Authors: Giljen Zdravko , Nedeljković Miloš , Cheng Yongguang
Published: July 2024

The main porpose of this paper is to perform and present at transient process analysis on the influence of different specific speeds (nq) of the three-model pump-turbines that may implemented at the hydropower pump storage plant (HPSP) Bajina Basta, Serbia. The intention is to analyze the operation regimes along the S-shaped characteristic curve, which creates difficulties in calculations during the load-rejection process. These problems are manifested by an unusual increase in water pressure, followed by an increase in machine vibrations, thus threatening the stability of machine operation. The subject of this research is the four-quadrant (4Q) characteristic curves, presented in the form of Suter curves (the head and momentum parameters (Wh and Wm), in dependence of angle (θ)) for different wicket gate openings, of the three pump-turbine models with different specific speeds (nq = 27, nq = 38 and nq = 50). These 4Q characteristics are used as input data for numerical code developed to calculate the simultaneous load rejection of both pump-turbines. The numerical code is based on the method of characteristics and applied to the test case at HPSP. This is especially relevant when dealing with characteristic S-shaped curves that may lead to serious instability in operation during the transient process. The calculation results show changes in the pressure, speed of rotation and discharge of the machine operation regimes, but the important findings are reflected in further application of the results to determine the parametric flow and speed (Q11 and n11) trajectories of the operating points, where the unstable behavior of a pump-turbine operating in turbine mode is presented and periodically the trajectories also pass through the reverse pump zone.
On Experimental Determination of Poisson’s Ratio for Rock-like Materials using Digital Image Correlation
Authors: Koc Pino
Published: July 2024

This article compares the two most used strain determination experimental techniques, the strain gauges and the digital image correlation (DIC), which are used here to determine the static Poisson's ratio of rock-like materials under a compressive loading. While the strain gauge technique measures the strains on the small patch of the underlying material on the spot, where the strain gauge is applied, DIC is a novel optical full-field technique that can measure the strains over the entire region of interest of the specimen. The key research question presented in this paper and research significance is to what extent the measurement of Poisson’s ratio is improved by leveraging the richness of the full-field measurements compared to the conventional strain gauge technique. To this purpose, the hypothesis was tested through virtual experiments in which a numerical simulation of a uniaxial compression test with a cylindrical, rock-like sample was created to mimic the strain gauge and DIC measurement techniques, as well as by conducting an actual compression test on a sandstone material. In contrast to conventional strain gauges, novel optical techniques such as stereo DIC proved to be able to capture the macroscopic Poisson coefficient with higher precision, thus reducing the margin of error.

Published: July 2024

The occurrence of transient culture positivity for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), known as Mirage de tuberculose, poses significant challenges in understanding its spectrum and implications. Here, we report a case of transient culture positivity, oscillating between
detectable and non-detectable MTB cultures with minimal radiological features and review the literature on this phenomenon. The scarcity of scientific literature on this subject stems from the inherent impossibility of systematically studying mirage de tuberculose. Ethical and public health
concerns prevent withholding treatment to monitor spontaneous reversion to negative cultures. Based on the literature, we estimate that mirage de tuberculose occurs in approximately one-third of individuals infected with MTB who exhibit no symptoms. Despite the inherently limited nature of
these findings, they suggest that the significance of mirage de tuberculose may be greater than currently perceived. Managing cases of mirage de tuberculose presents formidable challenges from a public health perspective. Striking a balance between prompt treatment initiation to prevent transmission
and the risk of unnecessary treatment requires careful consideration. In conclusion, mirage de tuberculose remains a poorly understood clinical entity with very limited literature available. Advancing research and interdisciplinary collaborations are essential to unravel the intricacies of
this phenomenon and develop effective strategies to address its public health challenges.

As cardiopatias congênitas são anomalias estruturais do coração ou dos grandes vasos intratorácicos que podem ter importantes implicações funcionais e representam cerca de 40% de todos os defeitos congênitos. Populações como os portadores da trissomia do cromossomo 21 apresentam maior incidência de malformações cardíacas. A comunicação interventricular (CIV) é a cardiopatia congênita mais comum na infância, com prevalência de 3,07 casos por 1000 indivíduos. A embriologia do coração mostra que ele se forma entre a terceira e oitava semana de gestação, a partir de duas estruturas tubulares. As CIVs resultam de falhas no desenvolvimento do septo interventricular, que se completa entre a 5ª e 8ª semana fetal. A fisiopatologia das CIVs depende do tamanho e número dos defeitos, e da resistência nos leitos vasculares pulmonar e sistêmico. Pequenos defeitos podem fechar espontaneamente, enquanto defeitos maiores podem causar insuficiência cardíaca e hipertensão pulmonar. O tratamento pode incluir medicamentos ou intervenção cirúrgica, dependendo da gravidade e localização do defeito. Métodos avançados, como a oclusão periventricular, são utilizados para minimizar complicações em pacientes de baixo peso.
“UNKNOWN” QUOTATIONS IN R. ZELAZNY’S NOVEL “CREATURES OF LIGHT AND DARKNESS” AS A PROBLEM OF TRANSLATION INTERPRETATION
Authors: FILATOVA G.A.
Published: July 2024

Precedent statements are an important intertextual phenomenon that makes it possible to include the work in the body of already existing texts but to actualize the game with the readers’ expectations. A quotation has the potential to perform many functions: it can serve as a direct reference to the author or a specific work, it can imply a broad cultural outlook of the reader, it can form the internal context of the work, as if these quotations were taken from texts invented by the characters themselves, etc. The aim of the article is to analyze the precedent statements in the novel of R. Zelazny “Creatures of Light and Darkness”. The extensive use of different types and levels of precedent phenomena characterizes this fiction novel as a whole. Three Russian translations of R. Zelazny’s novel were used as illustrative material. The method of research is contrastive semantic-syntactic analysis. A number of quotations in the novel by R. Zelazny’s novel initially assumes some “understatement”, when the reader either has to have a broad outlook in order to recognize the reference to the precedent text, or must try to guess what it is about. It is especially interesting when the source of the quotation is unknown and unrecognizable, so there is an interpretive lacuna that serves as a challenge to the reader. Translators look for ways to convey and simultaneously compensate for this reticence by various means, including, in some cases, eliminating the reticence itself (e. g. by introducing a reference to pretexts, although this does not exist in the original work). The results allow us to identify the translation that is closest to the original in pragmatic terms, as well as to conclude that there is some continuity in the translations: while the earlier translations are significantly different, the later translation uses some of its predecessors’ solutions.
