Reinforced concrete column-steel beam (RCS) composite structures are widely used in super highrise buildings due to their excellent performance. In this paper, the numerical simulation analysis of the RCS hybrid joints of “beam through” and “column through” RCS constructed with steel hoop structure are carried out, and the influence of five different parameters, i. e. , flange width-thickness ratio, steel yield strength, axial compression ratio, concrete strength and end plate thickness, on the seismic performance and failure mode of RCS hybrid joints is investigated. The results show that the ABAQUS finite element model can simulate the performance of RCS mixing under static load through reasonable parameter settings, which is in good agreement with the experimental results. Under the mechanism of “strong column and weak beam”, the combined node firstly undergoes beam-hinge damage, and the change of the axial compression ratio and the concrete strength parameter of the joint have little effect on the ultimate bearing capacity and deformation performance of the joint. Increasing the flange width-thickness ratio reduces the bearing capacity of the joint by up to 11%, and increases the yield strength of the steel, and increases the bearing capacity of the joint by 36. 4%. The thickness of the end plate of the column through specimen is increased, and the bearing capacity and deformation performance of the joint are improved to a certain extent. The changes of each parameter have no significant effect on the final plastic hinge failure mode of the joint. The research in this paper provides theoretical support for the design and research of this type of node in the future.

Bringing consciousness into the realm of the mind and returning the mind to the essence of life, the core is how to place the self of life. It is necessary to provide answers within the realm of the central intelligence of life and explore its natural realization in order to overcome the difficulty of consciousness. Firstly, in our view, consciousness is merely a common interpretation of the state of the mind, which is essentially integrated into life and contained in life traits. Therefore, the interpretation of the mind should be projected onto the characteristics of life itself and project onto phenomena. Understanding the mind also requires solving some basic problems and establishing interpretation norms: firstly, the basis of argument is to establish three classification concepts for objects in the sense of structure function: non self energy system, self energy system, and quasi self energy system, in order to determine a sphere of existence for life and the central intelligence of life, and to explain the available effects and spiritual phenomena of the mind; Secondly, in order to overcome the problem of the use of names for the detriment of the meaning of the word, issues such as mind and intelligence, mind and brain in mental understanding were distinguished, and the real-life experiences of consciousness were questioned. The problems in the understanding of mind such as mind and intelligence, mind and brain, and traces the reality of what happens to consciousness. Then, a summary statement was made on the occurrence and evolution of life, as well as the spiritual phenomena that arise with the supply and use effect of the mind. From the perspective of availability, based on the biological value of life control, the sense of dependence on motion, the functionality of memory, image and image flow editing, and self reflection and self illumination, the possible abilities of the mind were stated.

In recent years, extramural education has rapidly developed, but the educational agencies of varying quality have seriously damaged the education ecology, and standardization of extramural education has become the focus of the current education governance. Since the implementation of the “double reduction” policy, Guizhou Province has attached great importance to the implementation of the relevant decisions and deployments of the central government and has made it an important political task by playing a “combination of punches”———formulating detailed policies, implementing multiple regulations across the board and giving strengthened transformation guidance--to norm the extramural education. Therefore, how to better improve the effectiveness of governance, promote the process of modernization of the governance of extramural education in Guizhou, and build a better ecological “Guizhou practice” is an important practical issue that needs to be resolved in the process of modernizing social governance in Guizhou. Based on theoretical research and empirical analysis, this paper defines the practice of modernizing the governance of extramural education in Guizhou as an educational modernization governance system under the leadership of the Party coordinated with government management, social tuning, school management and platform. autonomy, which, with the orientation of educating people, will build a governance structure of “one core with multiple coordination” to promote the modernization of extramural education governance. Based on the empirical analysis of the effectiveness of governance in Guiyang City, the paper has analyzed and summarized the results of the model analysis, integrated the corresponding tracking case validation analysis, and the effectiveness of the governance process of estramural education in various regions of Guizhou with exploration of the rules and summarization of the experiences and lessons. This paper aims to bring into play the role of multi-subject collaborative governance of government management, social regulation, school management, and platform. autonomy under the guidance of Xi Jinpin’s thought on socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era to achieve the goal of governance of extramural education in the unity of co-governance, co-construction and sharing, to contribute to the modernization system of governance of extramural education with “Guizhou experience”, to provide a new methodology and path for the community of governance of extramural education in which everyone has the responsibility, everyone does his/her part and everyone enjoys the benefit.

Se plantea en esta propuesta una pieza audiovisual que retrata a cinco cantautoras del panorama musical actual de Granada. Visibilizar el trabajo, talento, vivencias y dar voz a estas jóvenes mujeres cantautoras que, a pesar de la estigmatización, los prejuicios y de tener muchas más dificultades que los hombres, se mueven y luchan por un futuro en la música, es el principal objetivo de este proyecto. Asimismo, se contrastan y retratan diferentes procesos creativos de cada cantautora, Se trata de una investigación artística basada en la práctica y en la experiencia personal, pues yo misma soy cantautora.  La idea de este proyecto surge por necesidad propia; cómo cantautora busco el encuentro, las realidades y las vivencias de otras mujeres que cómo yo, sienten el impulso y el anhelo de expresar parte de lo que pensamos y nos inquieta, a través de nuestras canciones. Surge el deseo de profundizar y visibilizar la figura de estas mujeres músicas, indagando sobre los distintos procesos creativos ¿De dónde surge la necesidad de componer? ¿Qué queremos mostrar? La música es una de las herramientas fundamentales que las personas tenemos para expresar lo que sentimos, nuestros estados de ánimo, nuestras vivencias o, sin más pretensión, el poder experimentar el placer de la propia música en sus variantes. Se necesitan personas, en este caso mujeres, que canten a la libertad y a la igualdad de oportunidades. Personas que con sus canciones y músicas saquen a la luz inquietudes, que nos hagan pensar, que remuevan conciencias y corazones. Para nosotras como mujeres jóvenes en la escena musical, supone un tremendo esfuerzo dignificar, visibilizar y profesionalizar , es decir, poder vivir de la música como oficio o profesión, no solo hablamos de la música, esto trasciende desafortunadamente también a otras manifestaciones artísticas. El formato documental audiovisual es una herramienta idónea para retratar estas realidades, la conjunción de la imagen, la emoción y lo musical.
Equipo Crónica. Su aportación a la divulgación del arte de Las Vanguardias Históricas en España a través de la apropiación (1969-1978)
Authors: Ruiz Bago Jesus
Published: August 2024

La obra del grupo artístico valenciano Equipo Crónica (1964-1981), constituyó desde el campo de las artes plásticas, durante un breve espacio temporal (1969-1978 aprox.), una aportación a los debates por la recuperación de los estudios de las Vanguardias Históricas europeas en España, que durante el franquismo habían sido denostadas por su pluralidad ideológica y cosmopolitismo. Este valor divulgador ha sido hoy en día sustituido por los estudios científicos normalizados de la Historia del arte en España, pero en el período político convulso de la década de los setenta en España, constituyeron una aportación desde el campo de la imagen a las grandes lagunas culturales que lastraban al país.
A Hybrid Technique Based on RF-PCA and ANN for Detecting DDoS Attacks IoT
Authors: Hayder Jalo  , Mohsen Heydarian
Published: August 2024

The increasing reliance on smart products has increased vulnerabilities in Internet of Things (IoT) traffic, which poses significant security risks. These vulnerabilities allowed some hackers to exploit them, which led to system performance degradation. Attacks can lead to these vulnerabilities to various undesirable outcomes, including data leakage, economic losses, data breaches, operational disruptions, and damage to the company's reputation. To address these security challenges, network intrusion detection alarms play a crucial role in assessing system security. In recent years, the proliferation of intelligent and soft computing-based algorithmic and structural frameworks has been evident. However, previous studies have faced challenges related to comprehensiveness, zero-day attacks, realism, and data interpretation. In light of these concerns, this study proposes to design a neural network for proactive detection of attacks. Moreover, we propose to use a hybrid system called RF-PCA to facilitate dimensionality reduction and help classifiers. Notably, this is the first application of a BOT-IoT data set in such an approach. The study also includes a discussion of relevant IoT terms in the context of our work. The proposed method uses high-level data features to represent and draw conclusive conclusions. To evaluate its effectiveness, an experiment was conducted using Python as the programming environment, achieving a remarkable detection rate of 99.73%.
Novel Rotor Fault Diagnostic Method Based on RLMD and HT Techniques
Authors: Guedidi Asma , laala Widad
Published: August 2024

Frequency domain analysis using the Fast Fourier transform (FFT) has been a popular method for diagnosing broken rotor bar (BRB) faults in squirrel-cage induction motors (IM). However, FFT analysis is limited by sampling frequency and time acquisition constraints, making it less effective under time-varying conditions. To overcome these difficulties, a novel BRB fault detection method for non-stationary conditions is proposed. The proposed strategy is based on the recently developed robust local mean decomposition (RLMD) and Hilbert transform (HT) methods. Using these techniques, the BRB characteristic frequency and amplitude component are obtained from only one phase stator current allowing automation of the features detection process. in fact, HT is used to extract the stator current envelope (SCE). Then, the SCE is processed by RLMD for determining the sub signals production functions (PFs). Finally, HT is applied to the most sensible PF to compute its instantaneous frequency and amplitude. The tracking of the BRB fault characteristic can inform us about the condition of the induction motor. The effectiveness of the proposed diagnostic strategy is validated through simulation conducted in the Matlab environment. The simulation results show the capability of this method to track accurately the frequency and amplitude of the 2sf component where f and s represent the fundamental stator current frequency and motor slip respectivel

Published: August 2024

In a world where connecting and working with people from different countries is more and more important, the language barriers are often the main reasons why the cross border communication and collaboration is not successful. This research paper is about the use of Generative AI models, most notably the MarianMT Model and T5 Model, that enable to go through the linguistic boundaries and create the multilingual forms. The paper,on the other hand, explores the real-life application of these models in a Python environment through the Hugging Face Transformers Library. The paper goes into detailed code sample to show how these models can be used to brightly transfer textual data from one language to another apart from currently utilized models . The experimental design concerns with the translation of different sample data, this data contains individual attributes like name, age, height, weight, and the medical problems, into a number of target languages. Besides, this study not only shows the technical difficulties of model initialization and translation but also it emphasizes the wider meaning of such technology for developing cross-cultural understanding and making the world communication easier. The results underline Generative AI's potentiality to overcome language obstacles, thus enabling the worldwide cooperation, knowledge spread, and cultural exchange.
Comparing LLMs using a Unified Performance Ranking System
Authors: Leon Maikel
Published: August 2024

Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed natural language processing and AI-driven applications. These advances include OpenAI’s GPT, Meta’s LLaMA, and Google’s PaLM. These advances have happened quickly. Finding a common metric to compare these models presents a substantial barrier for researchers and practitioners, notwithstanding their transformative power. This research proposes a novel performance ranking metric to satisfy the pressing demand for a complete evaluation system. Our statistic comprehensively compares LLM capacities by combining qualitative and quantitative evaluations. We examine the advantages and disadvantages of top LLMs by thorough benchmarking, providing insightful information on how they compare performance. This project aims to progress the development of more reliable and effective language models and make it easier to make well-informed decisions when choosing models.

The purpose of this work is to link a natural user interface and an autonomous navigation system to a conventional wheelchair with two control modalities: manual and automatic. It is taken into account that not all people have the same type or degree of disability, for this reason we seek to implement a user interface that involves different forms of user-machine interaction, with which the user can choose the manual mode that allows direct commands to control the movement of the chair and the automatic mode, which only needs the point or place where you need to go and through predefined trajectories, the autonomous navigation system will execute the necessary movements for the chair to follow the desired route.

Building research and evaluation within an Australian community eating disorder organisation through academic partnership: A pragmatic protocol
Authors: Verma Sumedha , Salom Caroline , Miskovic-Wheatley Jane , Aouad Phillip , Sidari Morgan , Caldwell Belinda , Maguire Sarah
Published: August 2024

Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions with rising prevalence. Despite this, research and evaluation (R&E) remain under-funded, hindering translation, policy, prevention and advances in care; an equitable and responsive ecosystem of research and knowledge-sharing across the sector is needed to enhance outcomes for people and systems affected by eating disorders. Community members engage with community eating disorder organisations/services to receive guidance and support, often through innovative co-designed programs and resources. Building R&E capacity and capability within community settings is essential in capturing, leveraging and translating local knowledges, such as evaluation outcomes to research, policy, practice settings and the broader community to improve understandings, actions and outcomes. Partnerships between community service providers and academic researchers could be a way of establishing reciprocal knowledge- sharing pathways while simultaneously building internal R&E capacity/capability. The current article presents a longitudinal participatory protocol to plan for, co-design and implement R&E practices within an Australian community-based eating disorder service via an academic partnership. We present a four-stage methodological outline aiming to (a) identify the needs, experiences and feasibility of engaging in R&E in a community eating disorder context; and (b) collaboratively plan for, develop and integrate R&E practices through partnership. We will collect data through focus groups, meetings, interviews, researcher notes and questionnaires across several months. This pragmatic plan can guide future collaborative R&E building efforts within a community mental health context in ways that inform the development and scalability of sustainable, effective and efficient R&E praxis and partnerships across the eating disorder and broader mental health sector.

Venezuela ante la Corte Penal Internacional (CPI): algunas cuestiones sobre el crimen de lesa humanidad
Authors: Díaz Galán Elena
Published: August 2024

La situación en Venezuela afecta a los derechos humanos y ha conducido a que un grupo de Estados americanos soliciten a la CPI que abra una investigación para determinar la eventual comisión de crímenes de lesa humanidad. Una vez en marcha esta investigación habrá que dilucidar si les son atribuibles a las autoridades venezolanas comportamientos que están tipificados en el Estatuto de Roma. Para ello, será preciso comprender el significado más profundo del crimen de lesa humanidad, más allá de las precisiones técnicas y normativas, y habrá que analizar los hechos que han ocurrido en el país caribeño, sobre todo a partir de las protestas de 2017. Y, en particular, se deberá resolver si las conductas que violan los derechos humanos se llevaron a cabo dentro de un plan previamente establecido, organizado e ideado por las autoridades venezolanas. Es la primera ocasión en la que la CPI realiza una investigación sobre crímenes internacionales cometidos en el continente americano.
Naturaleza y derecho, voces discordantes

Published: August 2024

Con este título muchos lectores estarán sospechando de que va este artículo. Probablemente acierten, pero sólo en parte. Se trata de cómo a la naturaleza a través de la ley se le ha conferido la categoría jurídica de sujeto de derecho. No lo consideramos razonable y epistemológicamente apropiado. Si se le reconoce derechos a la naturaleza habría que exigirle también obligaciones que no podría cumplir. Todo derecho, desde el punto de vista teórico y lógico, exige una obligación correlativa; y la naturaleza, como ser carente de pensamiento, voluntad y juicio no puede ser sujeto de derechos y mucho menos de obligaciones. La naturaleza no es centro de imputación y objeto de razonamiento animista alguno, pero esa situación ontológica no la excluye para que el ordenamiento jurídico le extienda su debida y oportuna protección, adecuándose siempre con la dignidad humana.
Un Empleo y desempleo de los jornaleros agrícolas migrantes en Oxnard, California, USA
Authors: Barrón Pérez María Antonieta
Published: August 2024

Este trabajo tiene como propósito describir los cambios en las condiciones de trabajo de los jornaleros migrantes mexicanos en Oxnard, condado de Ventura, California, USA. Se muestra cómo después de 10 años, entre 2012 y 2022, nada cambió en las condiciones de trabajo en la agricultura intensiva, la reducción de la jornada de trabajo responde a los ajustes legales donde se obliga al empleador a pagar 1.5 salarios si el jornalero trabaja más de 8 horas. La respuesta a esta medida fue la intensificación de la jornada de trabajo y la fijación de la jornada a no más de ocho horas. Deflactando el salario a precios de hoy, se encontró que, sí el jornalero gana más, ha sido a costa de trabajar arduamente, todo lo demás sin cambio, como es el trabajo estacional sin contrato, con un número de seguridad social prestado o alquilado y precarias condiciones de trabajo. Para llevar a cabo lo anterior se aplicó una encuesta en dos momentos en el tiempo, en 2012 a 95 jornaleros y en 2022 a 97, se trata de estudios de caso combinados con entrevistas a profundidad.

Published: August 2024

This research aims to emphasize the operational importance of avionics subsystems integrated into helicopters, primarily used for assault purposes, such as the Helmet Mounted Display System (HMDS) and Turreted Gun Systems. It addresses the functional capabilities of HMDS in target detection and aiming, as well as the defense and engagement capabilities of Turreted Gun Systems against various threats. The focus of the research is on evaluating the parametric data, such as the dispersion of the Turreted Gun Systems and the targeting performance values of the HMDS, during their use together. It also assesses the transmission of this data through a Kalman filter before being sent to the Turreted Gun Systems to mitigate platform-induced disruptive factors. The findings help us understand the profound impact of technological advancements in helicopter avionics systems on operational effectiveness. Additionally, this study sheds light on the impact of dispersion values on hit performance during usage. It is assessed that the proposed method in this study will result in more stable data, and that controlling the Turreted Gun Systems with this stable data can enhance hit performance. The study can be further developed by examining subsystems with different performance characteristics and filtering methods.
Peak Velocity Pressure of Air Traffic Control Towers: A Comparative Study
Authors: Tuncal Arif
Published: August 2024

The aim of the study was to compare the structural resistance of air traffic control towers (ATCTs) in Europe over 100 feet (30.48 meters) in height by determining their peak velocity pressure. A comprehensive examination was conducted on the ATCTs of 64 airports across Europe, with a reference to the EN-1991-1-4 criteria. The findings revealed notable differences in wind speeds and peak velocity pressure values experienced by ATCTs located in diverse geographical regions of Europe. The Athens Airport ATCT recorded the highest peak velocity pressure at 2.52 kN/m², while the lowest value was recorded at Zagreb Airport ATCT at 0.89 kN/m². These differences play a crucial role in determining the structural resistance of ATCTs. ATCTs exposed to high peak velocity pressures should use stronger materials and incorporate aerodynamic designs. Considering the significant influence of geographical location on wind loads, these results provide important insights into the safety of existing and future ATCTs. It is recommended that these findings be extended by investigating ATCTs in different geographical regions and that structural design strategies against wind loads be more thoroughly investigated in future studies.

English is the most widely spoken language in the world, making it essential for effective global communication. This is why individuals who aspire to thrive in today's global society must possess proficiency in English. This study focuses on how the use of code switching (CS) and code mixing (CM) affect the learning of the English language in G. S. Bisizi and G. S. Gikombe of Rubavu District in Rwanda. The study was conducted with the aim to: (1) identify reasons for code switching and code mixing in lower secondary schools; (2) assess the impact of CS and CM on students’ performance in learning English; and (3) establish strategies to adopt in order to avoid CS and CM in English language classrooms. It was conducted based on the matrix language frame and sequential theories. A descriptive research design was used. The researchers employed a mixed method for data collection, analysis, and presentation. Its total population is comprised of 726 individuals, including 716 students, 6 teachers, and 4 school leaders from both schools. The sample size is 85 respondents (75 students, 6 teachers, and 4 school leaders) got by use of simple random sampling (students) and purposive sampling techniques (teachers and school leaders). During the collection of primary data, questionnaires, interview guides, and observation checklists were used as convenient tools, while documentation was used in collecting secondary data. The findings indicated that the lack of vocabulary, emphasizing a particular topic while teaching and learning English, and the intention to clarify the speech content are the major reasons for using CS and CM. They also reveal that CS and CM contribute to students’ failure in learning English, as both create a lack of their confidence in speaking, limit students’ practice in speaking English, retard their ability to master English, and lead to a low understanding and mastery of English. In addition, the study revealed that teachers are the main source for CS and CM in their classes. Finally, this research recommends that school leaders and English language teachers should reinstate a policy of speaking English in the school premises and make an effective follow-up to ensure students do not violate it. Teachers should also act as role models in their language classes by avoiding CS and CM, whereas the decision makers in education should initiate a short-term professional program and special ways to avoid CS among teachers to help students effectively learn English language.

O presente trabalho investiga os motivos da expressividade de votos, na campanha presidencial pelo Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) no Piauí, no ano de 2022. A pesquisa analisou os municípios com maior expressividade de votos e sua relação com a qualidade de vida, desde as ações políticas desenvolvidas pelo partido. Nesse contexto, foram investigados os motivos da expressividade de votos do PT no estado do Piauí em 2022. A pesquisa está pautada nas seguintes etapas: revisão bibliográfica; levantamento do perfil socioeconômico dos municípios do Piauí, representantes com maior expressividade de votos, tomando como referência, dados do PIB per capita, nos anos de 2010 e 2020. Complementa o recorte metodológico, a coleta de dados sobre a distribuição dos votos válidos contabilizados na eleição de 2022, pelo Tribunal Superior Eleitoral (TSE), de forma regionalizada no território piauiense, por meio de amostragens cartográficas. Os resultados revelam que os municípios com baixo PIB per capita obtiveram uma melhoria considerável na qualidade de vida através das políticas de diminuição da desigualdade social desenvolvidas pelo PT, a exemplo do Bolsa Família. Tal condição, é motivo justificador para a expressiva votação nos municípios recortados nesta pesquisa.
