Authors: Abdulmujeeb Aliyu , Garba M. M. , Sokoto A. M. , Rikoto I. I. , Alabi A. O.
Published: September 2023

In this work, the thermal efficiency of a dual-operated solar cooking and drying system that may be utilized for domestic use was examined. An analysis of the system’s thermal performance was conducted at Sokoto Energy Research Centre (SERC) using the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). Sampling cooking and drying tests were carried out, and the potential for extended cooking time for brine solution and animal fat was conducted. The results showed that the first figure of merit (F1) value agrees with the standard value of 0.12 and the second figure of merit (F2) value is in close correspondence with 0.25 (BIS Standard). The system was able to dehydrate 89 % of the moisture content of banana slices weighing 118 g which is of uniform thickness of 4 mm to achieve a stable weight of 12 g after 8 hours of drying. Animal fat showed more potential for extended cooking time than brine solution, as it took 5 hours to cool after heating for about 3 hours. Six pieces of eggs were boiled for 45 minutes in a temperature range of 29.7 oC and 88.2 oC. These findings indicate the potential of this dual-operated system for domestic applications.

FOREIGN POLICY AND MILITARY INVOLVEMENT Case Study: Russia-Sudan Relationship (KEBIJAKAN LUAR NEGERI DAN KETERLIBATAN MILITER Studi Kasus: Hubungan Rusia-Sudan)
Authors: Hashmi Hassan Raza
Published: September 2023

It would not be justified to say that Sudan is important to many great powers only because of its resource-rich lands. Sudan also stands unique because of its geopolitical importance and of its geographic location. A country located on the shores of the Red Sea, with connection to both the Arabian and Mediterranean Seas proposing a very base land to all superpowers. Despite all the resources available and perfectly located, geostrategically Sudan has not been able to exploit these advantages in true letter and spirit. There may be many reasons for it but the biggest can be a lack of sincere leadership and a fair political system acting in the best nation’s interest. Therefore, any strategic decisions made and foreign policies implemented have shown zero sum towards its sovereignty and prosperity; allowing foreign military interference directly or indirectly.
Belt and Road Initiative: Advantages and Disadvantages for Indonesia
Authors: Dil Saqib Athar
Published: September 2023

The Belt and Road Initiative, formerly known as One Belt One Road (OBOR), is a crucial element of President Xi's "Major Country Diplomacy" policy. This policy aims to enable China to take on greater leadership in global affairs as a result of its growing power. The BRI's objective is to foster collaboration and joint development between China and countries in Asia, Africa, and Europe. The launch of the BRI coincided with ASEAN's vigorous promotion of its Masterplan for ASEAN Connectivity (MPAC), a strategy aimed at enhancing intra-ASEAN links. There is an opportunity to combine these efforts in a way that respects each other's borders and sensitivities. Indonesia and China are among the four most populated countries in the world, and the BRI will play a crucial role in their bilateral relations. The partnership between China and Indonesia holds great potential in areas such as trade, economy, technology, education, social services, and culture. This process has advantages and disadvantages for Indonesia, which will be discussed in this article, along with the way forward.

Authors: Abdulhay Husain
Published: September 2023

Vocabulary is part and parcel of learning of a second or a foreign language. This study examined the effect of vocabulary learning through translation of English words (Persian equivalents) and the use of English synonym on the retention and retrieval of vocabularies. Static-group comparison design was utilized to scrutinize sixty EFL learners split into two groups. The experimental group was instructed on the memorizing strategies and the control one left alone to memorize words presented in class in a week time span. The experimental group being taught on coding, interim device, and visual imagery strategies was assayed on spot by dint of written word recognition tests for their receptive knowledge of synonyms written on the board. The findings of the matching test tasks divulged that the learners’ recognitions of synonyms than the first language equivalents were significantly higher. The experimental group significantly scored higher in the recognition test of synonyms than that of translation equivalents. Results have practical implications and application for foreign language learning and teaching which are discussed.

Influence of Vitreoretinal Surgery on Ocular Surface Dynamics Using Keratograph 5M
Authors: Hwang Gyu Eun , Lee Eung Suk , Kim Hoon Dong
Published: September 2023

Purpose: To evaluate changes of ocular surface dynamics using Keratograph 5M for 3 months after vitreoretinal surgery.Methods: Eighty-three patients were divided into three groups: phacoemulsification group, vitrectomy group, and combined group. Keratograph 5M was performed for all patients at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after the surgery. Ocular surface dynamics parameters measured by Keratograph 5M, including noninvasive keratograph first tear film breakup time (NifBUT), noninvasive keratograph average tear film breakup time (NiaBUT), and tear meniscus height (TMH) were compared among the three groups over time.Results: The mean age of all patients (46 men and 37 women) was 62.2 ± 8.4 years. NifBUT and NiaBUT were significantly decreased at 1 week after surgery compared to those at baseline in all three groups (all p < 0.001). NifBUT and NiaBUT in the phacoemulsification group almost recovered to the preoperative level, while those in the vitrectomy group and the combined group were still significantly less than those at baseline. NifBUT and NiaBUT in the phacoemulsification group were significantly longer than those in the vitrectomy group and the combined group at 3 months. After 1 week, TMHs were significantly higher in the vitrectomy group (p = 0.001) and the combined group (p = 0.022) than in the phacoemulsification group, while TMHs were significantly less in the vitrectomy group (p = 0.010) and the combined group (p < 0.001) than in the phacoemulsification group at 3 months after surgery.Conclusions: These results suggest that vitreoretinal surgery could induce alteration of ocular surface dynamics for 3 months. The vitrectomy group and the combined group showed tear film instability compared to the cataract surgery alone group. Patients who underwent vitreoretinal surgery experienced more severe dry eye syndrome symptoms than those who underwent cataract surgery. Thus, managing dry eye syndrome after vitreoretinal surgery should be considered important for patients.
Scoliosis - a Universal Rotational (De)compensation of the Spine
Authors:   , de Reuver Steven
Published: September 2023

The uniqueness of human sagittal spinal alignment, and its link to the distinct phenomenon
of idiopathic scoliosis are studied in this thesis, with an emphasis on contemporary
imaging techniques. Spinal ultrasound is introduced in this thesis as a radiation-free
alternative to X-rays, thereafter verified and implemented in standard scoliosis care.
Furthermore, it was discovered that already discrete differences are present in the
straight spines of healthy children, that may play a role in the development of scoliosis
later in life: e.g. intervertebral disc slenderness, observed to be especially present in girls
in their mid-thoracic area during early adolescence. In scoliosis of different etiologies it
was demonstrated that axial rotation into the curve convexity combined with lordosis,
i.e. anterior opening of the rotated intervertebral discs, is a universal phenomenon
among idiopathic, non-idiopathic and compensatory scoliotic curves, that can occur
in the spine of any species. Therefore, scoliosis seems to be a universal rotational
(de)compensation to any cause of disturbance of spinal equilibrium, hence the title of
this thesis.

Scoliosis has a 20-fold increased prevalence in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, this
thesis demonstrated that scoliosis in these children morphologically and dynamically
resembles idiopathic scoliosis, supporting the use of these patients as a ‘model’ to
prospectively study scoliosis in general. In this thesis this model provided prospective
evidence that the severity of the posteriorly inclined segment (part of any spine) is a risk
factor for scoliosis. While important clues in idiopathic scoliosis etiology have historically
been drawn from retrospective studies, this model enables prospective research, which
is the only way to truly confirm or discard these clues, distinguishing between cause
and effect of the disorder and contribute certainties to the ongoing effort of taking the
‘I’ out of AIS (Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis). Identifying causal factors that are already
present before scoliosis development may be used as biomarkers in identifying those
at risk in the general population. Screening and prevention currently have next to no
place in scoliosis clinical care, while this has been proven to be the most effective way
in battling any disease, especially on population level.

It is time to take the big leap, and transfer the focus from watchful waiting and treatment
of secondary symptoms, towards developing prevention that targets the primary

It is known that short-span high-speed railway viaducts are prone to suffer significant dynamic effects due to the passage of moving train loads. Recent technological advances in railway engineering have resulted in track typologies different from the conventional ballasted track consisting of discrete sleepers fastened to the rails and resting on a ballast bed. In particular, ballastless track has been identified as an effective solution due to reduced maintenance costs, high track stability and excellent geometric quality. Though different track typologies are available in the market, they can be classified as monolithic or independent according to the interaction degree with the bridge girder. In the present paper, the dynamic behaviour of short-span bridges is numerically studied by taking into account the track-bridge interaction by modelling explicitly the components of the track. Two types of ballastless track (monolithic continuous slab and independent short slabs) and conventional ballasted track are considered on simply supported bridges with span length in the range of 15-25 m subjected to envelope and commercial train loads at speeds between 200 and 360 km/h. In total, 2448 numerical cases have been analyzed. The study shows that dynamic deflections and accelerations produced at the bridge girder by moving train loads can be reduced when the ballasted track is replaced to ballastless track systems, especially for the critical speeds higher than 300 km/h. Moreover, it is shown that the two ballastless track systems lead to very similar results, with the monolithic system resulting in slightly smaller bridge deflections and also moderately larger accelerations.

Background. A child’s personality is formed at an early age. This is the most favorable time to develop a child's emotional intelligence (EI), which is an important factor for further social, emotional, and cognitive development. Parents and teachers are important actors in a child’s social environment and can have a significant impact on a child's emotional development and behavior. Adults with high emotional intelligence can teach a child empathy, emotional perception, problem-solving, and other skills, as well as help the child learn to manage their emotions, understand and express feelings, and find appropriate ways to control inappropriate behavior or resolve conflicts. High emotional intelligence also correlates with the ability to understand a child's behavior better and choose appropriate educational strategies. In Lithuania, there is a lack of comprehensive research on the expression of EI among pre-school children’s parents and teachers, and differences identified between the public and private pre-school education sectors can be useful in further analyzing factors related to education quality. In this context, we aim to analyze the characteristics of EI among parents and teachers of pre-school children, as well as the differences that occur between representatives of private and public education sectors.

Methods. Emotional intelligence was assessed using the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale, which consists of 33 statements (Schutte et al., 1998).

Results. It was determined that the overall EI score of the participants was higher than average. After comparing EI indicators of different education sectors, it was determined that private sector educators have statistically significantly higher EI scores than their public sector counterparts. Parents with children in private sector education institutions had the highest EI level, while educators of the public sector education institutions had the lowest. No emotional intelligence differences based on gender were identified.

Conclusions. Educators in the private education sector have higher EI compared to their public sector counterparts. Parents choosing private education sector for their children have the highest EI levels in the entire study population.

Background. Self-esteem is one characteristic of personality, a construct of self-confidence, self-respect, and harmonious interaction with oneself (Breslin, Leavey, 2019). Research devoted to the analysis of men's self-esteem reveals that a positive self-evaluation of men requires an image of a physically active man, which the man could compare with other men who demonstrate physical strength (Conzelmann, Schmidt, 2019). A man's physical self-perception is part of the assessment of a physically healthy and strong person and an aspect that ensures his sociality (Crawford, 2017). Scientific research establishes clear links between a man's physical attractiveness (Anderson-Butcher, 2019), sociability and self-esteem (Anderson, White, 2017). Men who systematically engage in active physical activity are physically healthier and more attractive (Burrmann, 2018). They are also emotionally more stable, their emotional self-control is more focused and their self-confidence is higher (El Ghali, 2018).

Aim of the research. To reveal the effect of sports activities on the self-esteem of men experiencing social exclusion.

Methods. To determine men's self-esteem changes The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale was chosen,  and the Data were processed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science), version 22.0.

Results. A study in which men experiencing social exclusion participated in independent and team sports activities for half a year revealed a positive change in their self-esteem. When analyzing the changes in men's self-esteem before and after the activities, the distance between the estimates of the Rosenberg test before the experiment and 6 months after it ended is 1 standard deviation on the z-scale of the standard normal distribution. According to Cohen's concept of effective size, such a difference between standardized means can be considered as large. Despite the relatively small sample (N=30), the test met the very strict condition of statistical reliability (p≤0.001).

Conclusion. The study revealed that when socially excluded men were included in sports activities held for half a year, their self-esteem changed from 15 points (low self-esteem) to 25-30 points (high self-esteem).

Published: September 2023

The prevalence of activity detectors in users’ personal mobile devices has been incorporated into an increasing interest in research into physical function recognition (HAR - Human Activity Recognition). With this research interest, different enterprises developed HAR systems working with measurement devices and still work on this subject. Although many HAR systems have been developed, there are still concrete practical limits. This situation is improved with modern techniques such as machine learning. A properly trained machine learning model predicts human activity from measured data. The data was measured at certain time intervals by sensors on smartphones. These different machine learning architectures were trained on sensor data that detected human activities, and their accuracy was calculated. A HAR system that predicts human activity is constructed separately with five approaches. KNN, Random Forest, Decision Tree, MLP and Gaussian Naive Bayes algorithms were used, and KNN produced the most accurate results.
Preserve, Pressure, Protect, and Peel: The US-China Rivalry and the Politics of Vaccine Provision
Authors: Inouye Rikio
Published: September 2023

Lead states compete for influence and followers and the provision of health aid is a crucial foreign policy tool. Yet, there is variation in the means and patterns of provision. How and to which countries do providing states distribute vaccines amidst global crisis and rivalry? This article posits a novel typology of strategies: preserving existing partnerships, pressuring opponents, protecting recipients based on need, and peeling off countries from geopolitical rivals. It then analyzes US and Chinese vaccine distribution throughout the COVID-19 pandemic with respect to such strategies. Regression results and Bayesian process tracing suggest the US approach is characterized by protecting and peeling, while the Chinese approach is a combination of pressuring, preserving, and protecting. As for why certain provision strategies are pursued over others, evidence from original interviews and case studies of Nicaragua and Paraguay suggest grand strategic considerations take precedent over dyadic geopolitical calculations or domestic special interests.

The pandemic had a huge impact on many things and situations, particularly the new normal. The researchers decided that field study of pre-service teachers is one of them because no one has ever taken the course under the new COVID-19 setup. The researchers aim to inform their readers about how the COVID-19 pandemic challenge will affect every pre-service teacher in the new set-up of education through online learning. Purposive homogenous sampling was used to choose 12 students from Rizal Technological University-Boni and Pasig Campuses. Researchers chose typical students, non-workers, and university scholars as participants. Age, gender, and geography vary among participants. Researchers used interviews and supported by an interview script to gather replies. Pandemic-related preparations have been taken. Thematic analysis is used to understand pre-service teachers' challenges in the new field study setup. Pre-service teachers face challenges in this setting, according to the research most are struggling because of the rapid move from traditional classes to the new typical format, causing unpreparedness and lack of expertise when they face more complex situations. In addition, slow internet and a lack of resources make it difficult to attend classes and meet prerequisites. Some have many restrictions, especially on classroom monitoring because of the pandemic. The findings imply that the study's premise is significant and relevant in today's environment, especially for individuals pursuing an education degree and becoming pre-service teachers. Pre-service teachers face new obstacles in the new normal.
