ABSTRACT

Peanuts are one of the high economic value commodities in the dry land area. This commodity also contributes to the social life of the dry land area. This research has been conducted in Semau Sub-district, Kupang Regency, with the aim to determine the amount of income, break event point (BEP), R / C ratio, efficiency of capital use and factors that affect the income of peanuts farming, with the number of farmer respondents as many as 92 people , simple randomly selected. Data that has been collected by survey, library and interview methods; analyzed quantitatively-descriptive using regression methods.

The results showed that the total average income of peanut farming in the study location was IDR 1,739,895 with a total average income of IDR 3,498,261 and a total average cost of IDR 1,758,366. While the break event point average of production is 147 Kg and the break event point price is IDR. 6.509, while for the total average the R / C ratio is

1.99. With factors that affect income are production (X1), seed costs (X2), and labor costs (X3). From the regression results with the Cobb-Douglass function the coefficient of determination (R2) is 0.822 with the meaning that variations in independent variables such as production, seed costs and labor costs explain the dependent variable namely income (Y) of 82.20% and the rest 17.80 % is explained by variables outside of the variables analyzed. From the results of the F test (diversity test) it was found that the factors X1, X2, and X3 had a significant effect on income at ⍺ 1%, then accept H1 at least one of: βi ≠ 0. Whereas the results of the t test (partial test) obtained that factors significant effect on income, namely production (X1) and labor costs (X2), while the cost of seeds (X3) does not significantly affect income.

Arnis has been identified as a combative, full-contact sport in the context of the school's co-curricular activities, in which students may have acquired meaningful learning, skills, and physical well-being. This qualitative study explores the experiences of arnis players or arnisadors in their curricular and co-curricular pursuits; has utilized non-probability purposive sampling; and employed Colaizzi's seven-step phenomenological method as a reference in interpreting and formulating relevant themes that reflect the curricular and co-curricular experiences of the participants. Data collection was carried out employing interviews and observation methods. Relative themes that emerged from this study were commitment, milestones, physical development, self-discipline, realization, pride and passion, training, competition, camaraderie, support, and aspiration. Curiosity and peer influence were the main factors that led participants to join the arnis team, and the rigors of the training changed their perspective towards the fulfillment of curricular and co-curricular objectives. Significant benefits from joining Arnis have been highlighted, such as sound health, asthma healing, physical and character development, and other positive attributes have been enhanced. Their aspiration as senior practitioners would be to share the kind of discipline, advancement, and expertise they have achieved with the beginners to express gratitude to the team. Furthermore, it was revealed that the ideal peer influence would lead to something beneficial, such as an affiliation to a sport like Arnis. At the same time, the loco parentis is essential for the role modeling to student-athletes who have been successful in managing difficulties due to genuine friendship and love. And the support of teammates, coaches, family, and school.

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a common form of CHD, accounts for approximately 8% of congenital heart disease with the incidence of one in 2500 to 5000 live births. More common in female. It may be asymptomatic and is sometimes not diagnosed early resulting into prolonged abnormal aorto-pulmonary shunt which may result in silently progressing hypertension and left ventricular dysfunction.
This study aims to evaluate the immediate &short-term follow up results after TCC of large PDAs with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PHT) in children.This is a observational study of 38 patients with Large PDA and severe PHT who were referred to this centre for treatment during the period from July 2015 to Feb 2018 . After evaluating clinical and hemodynamic parameters reversibility of severe PAH was established and transcatheter closure of PDA was performed. Patients were followed up clinically and echocardiographically at 24 hours, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months to assess the efficacy, safety of the procedure & its impact on PHT. Thirty eight patients, (26 females, 12males) patients between 6 months to 16 years of age had underwent successful device closure. 18 patients had PDA sizes between 6-8 mm,12 had between 8- 10 mm , 6 had between 10-15mm and only 2 patients had largest PDA more than 15 mm at PA end . 5 patients were selected for closure with muscular VSD device . We have successfully closed 3 of our largest PDA (12 mm , 16mm and 18mm) with Post Infarct Muscular VSD Occluder measuring 20 mm,22 mm and 24 mm respectively.

Agricultural productivity is an important factor in a country's economic development. Therefore, the diagnosis of plant diseases is a field of research of great importance for the agricultural sector since it allows us to help recommend strategies to prevent the spread of diseases, thus reducing economic losses. Currently, with the rise of computer systems, computer systems have been developed that allow computer assisted diagnosis in different fields of research, including the agricultural sector. Since late blight is one of the main diseases due to its high incidence and severity, this paper proposes a methodology to obtain late blight segmentation in tomato leaf images through image analysis and color analysis using the HSV color model. The proposed methodology was applied to a set of publicly available PlantVillage images, to which late blight segmentation was obtained.

Series Loss-Free Resistor: Analysis, Realization and Applications
Authors: Barbi Ivo
Published: November 2020

An analysis of the transient behavior of DC
networks consisting of voltage sources, capacitors, and series loss-free
resistors (SLFRs) is presented. The realization of an SLFR was achieved by
means of a topological variation of the positive output-voltage buck-boost
converter operated in discontinuous-conduction mode (DCM). It is demonstrated
that even simple RC circuits containing SLFRs exhibit behavior that is
described by Abel nonlinear differential equations, which do not have an exact
analytical solution. Some possible applications of the SLFRs in power
electronics, DC microgrids and renewable energy power systems, include
loss-free charge and discharge of capacitor banks, voltage equalization of
capacitors, and loss-free voltage clamping circuits. The concept of the SLFR
can also be applied for voltage control in DC microgrids, employing the droop
voltage technique, equalization of power and current in voltage sources
associated in parallel (including batteries and DC-DC converters), and also
input and output voltage natural balance in input-series output-series (ISOS)
association of DC converters. The theoretical analysis results are validated
via numerical examples and computer simulation.
Predicting COVID-19 Spread Level using Socio-Economic Indicators and Machine Learning Techniques

Published: November 2020

The new so-called COVID-19 virus is unfortunately founded to
be highly transmissible across the globe. In this study, we propose a novel
approach for estimating the spread level of the virus for each country for
three different dates between April and May 2020. Unlike previous studies, this
investigation does not process any historical data of spread but rather relies
on the socio-economic indicators of each country. Actually, more than 1000 socio-economic
indicators and more than 190 countries were processed in this study.
Concretely, data preprocessing techniques and feature selection approaches were
applied to extract relevant indicators for the classification process. Countries
around the globe were assigned to 4 classes of spread. To find the class level
of each country, many classifiers were proposed based especially on Support
Vectors Machines (SVM), Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLP) and Random Forests (RF). Obtained
results show the relevance of our approach since many classifiers succeeded in
capturing the spread level, especially the RF classifier, with an F-measure
equal to 93.85% for April 15th, 2020. Moreover, a feature importance study is
conducted to deduce the best indicators to build robust spread level
classifiers. However, as pointed out in the discussion, classifiers may face
some difficulties for future dates since the huge increase of cases and the
lack of other relevant factors affecting this widespread.
NDF of the near-field of a strip source in orthogonal directions
Authors: Pierri Rocco , Moretta Raffaele
Published: November 2020

In the manuscript, we address the problem of evaluating the

number of degrees of freedom (NDF) of the field radiated by a strip source along all the directions orthogonal to it.

The NDF represents at the same time the number of independent functions required to represent the data with a given degree of accuracy, and the dimension of the unknowns subspace that can be stably reconstructed. For such reason, the knowledge of the NDF gives insight on the forward and on the inverse problems and it represents one of the metrics to evaluate the achievable performance in the inversion.

The main difficulty arises since in near-zone the eigenvalue

problem that must be solved for the computation of the NDF,

involves a non-convolution and non-bandlimited kernel. In the paper, we show how to overcome this drawback and how to obtain a closed-form expression of the NDF which highlights the role played by the configuration parameters.

Authors: Da Silva Alves Eliene , Campos Pojo Toutonge Eliana
Published: November 2020

:  O artigo discute os ‘saberes das águas’ no ensino de ciências na rede municipal de ensino do Acará (PA), considerando as intertrocas socioculturais, os aprendizados do cotidiano e as relações que estabelecem no espaço das águas por moradores residentes às margens do rio Acará. Trata-se de uma pesquisa em andamento, balizada por estabelecer relações entre os saberes das águas e possíveis temáticas a serem trabalhadas no ensino de ciências. O estudo de caráter qualitativo, cujos procedimentos metodológicos envolvem observação participante, entrevistas e registros do cotidiano do entorno do rio Acará junto aos sujeitos envolvidos. Soma-se, ainda, o estudo bibliográfico a partir de Brandão (2007), Freire (1996), Diegues (2007), Castro (1998) e Sasseron (2017). São notórias as formas funcionais de movimentação dos sujeitos com as águas em suas vivências, sugerindo-nos intertrocas teóricas e metodológicas de produção de conhecimento. Como resultados parciais, é possível sinalizar que os saberes das águas são de ordem prática na vida dos sujeitos e, simultaneamente, relacionam-se com conhecimentos escolares, sendo uma oportunidade de estudo dos aspectos culturais e ambientais do lugar, a partir dos aprendizados dessa movimentação cotidiana que circulam nesse espaço.

Modelos educacionais utilizados atualmente seguem uma tendência de homogeneização cultural que desconsidera a diversidade étnica, territorial e cultural na qual os sujeitos estão inseridos. Nesse sentido, um trabalho de conclusão de curso se orientou a partir da seguinte questão: Quais contradições vividas e percebidas no contexto de uma escola do campo podem ser mobilizadas a partir do ensino de ciências? Sendo assim, o objetivo deste trabalho consiste em mobilizar a realidade de uma escola do campo do município de Campo Florido - MG com temas geradores que oportunizam uma educação crítica para o ensino de ciências e para uma leitura de mundo que consiga articular avanços frente às situações limites e contraditórias locais. Foi desenvolvido a partir dos princípios da pesquisa-ação, sendo adotado o modelo teórico-metodológico da investigação temática freireana para construção de quatro ações pedagógicas das quais participaram alunas e alunos da Educação para Jovens e Adultos – EJA da escola localizada no assentamento Nova Santo Inácio Ranchinho e que atende à comunidade. A dialogicidade imbricada no processo suscitou discussões acerca dos modelos de produção, memórias dos assentados e desafios vivenciados pela comunidade. Os conflitos socioambientais surgiram como temas geradores, acentuados principalmente pela disputa pelo território, que inclui não somente a propriedade da terra, mas as relações com a natureza, culturais e de trabalho desenvolvidas pela comunidade configurando uma situação limite. A construção de processos educativos para o ensino de ciências pelas relações estabelecidas na comunidade aponta a memória biocultural dos assentados e assentadas fundamental para articular estes elementos em contraponto ao currículo alinhado com a lógica de grandes transnacionais de commodidities.

Na Educação do Campo é preciso que as Ciências da Natureza (CN) sejam trabalhadas com o objetivo de permitir que o aluno do campo compreenda o meio em que vive, sendo as questões ambientais relacionadas ao conhecimento científico primordiais para essa garantia. Para tanto, é preciso um professor que conheça a realidade do aluno do campo e desenvolva práticas que possibilitem reflexões sobre a relação sociedade-natureza a partir dos próprios elementos cotidianos dos povos do campo. Este trabalho propôs avaliar a importância da Educação Ambiental (EA) para o Ensino de CN na EDUCampo/UFCAT. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa cuja coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevistas com egressas do Curso. Os dados foram tratados através da Análise Textual Discursiva. Neste Curso, no Tempo Comunidade (TC) são propostos temas geradores com o intuito de problematizar o meio e integralizar as discussões das disciplinas num arranjo interdisciplinar, buscando garantir uma prática pedagógica a partir da realidade do campo com o embasamento das CN. Percebeu-se que o TC foi apontado como o principal meio adotado para se trabalhar as questões ligadas ao meio ambiente e tem proporcionado a interdisciplinaridade e a contextualização do conhecimento científico, realizando a discussão da EA por meio de visitas.

A Educação do Campo prioriza o ensino de qualidade e defende o respeito às especificidades dos sujeitos e dos seus territórios. Sob essa perspectiva, a disciplina de Ciências apresenta desafios em sua prática, já que exige conhecimentos e ferramentas adequadas de intervenção, no intuito de avalizar significações sociais, políticas, econômicas e culturais. Em busca de atender às referidas expectativas, descrevemos o presente relato de experiência, desenvolvido a partir da temática “Quintais”, com ações que envolvem o ensino de Ciências (foco em Agroecologia) e que utilizam, como recurso pedagógico, a Facilitação Gráfica. Assim, destacamos uma proposta pedagógica motivadora e participativa, havendo grande satisfação por parte dos envolvidos, além de possibilitar reflexões sobre a produção de conhecimentos, que, por sua vez, visa superar a educação fragmentada e descontextualizada. Ainda, salientamos certas significações acerca do papel do docente, da importância da Agroecologia e da valorização do campo.

Apresentamos os resultados de um estudo qualitativo que envolveu estudantes do 4º ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública do povoado de Pedra Branca, município de Santa Terezinha, Bahia. O objetivo foi investigar como esses estudantes representam os insetos e quais as possíveis implicações para a aprendizagem sobre a biologia desses animais. A coleta de dados aconteceu através de desenhos esquemáticos acompanhados de textos explicativos elaborados pelos estudantes após escutarem a palavra “inseto” e as análises procederam indutivamente, tendo revelado que eles classificam os insetos como sendo animais de um modo geral (espécies da própria classe Insecta e de outros grupos, como crustáceos, mamíferos e peixes, entre outros). Essa classificação revela um ordenamento diferente do científico, podendo estar associado ao universo sociocultural dos estudantes, que se não for considerado nos métodos de ensino escolar, poderá dificultar uma compreensão científica adequada. Consideramos imperativo que os professores investiguem e compreendam os conhecimentos culturais dos estudantes para a promoção de diálogos com negociação de significados culturais e ampliação de conhecimentos que permitam a compreensão cientifica acerca da biologia dos insetos e sua importância ecológica nos diferentes ecossistemas.
