Understanding the Experiences of University Students Facing Psychosomatic Symptoms in e-Learning
Authors: Kechil Rafizah , Abd Rahman Nor Hanim , Abd Razak Noor’Aina
Published: October 2024

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic has triggered a profound transformation in the field of teaching and learning (T&L) resulting in the transition from conventional face-to-face teaching to e-learning methods. This transition not only changed the educational landscape but also inflicted emotional and mental distress on educators and students. In Malaysia, university lecturers and students are grappling with the challenges that arise as a result of this sudden transition. They experience psychosomatic symptoms characterized by psychological factors such as stress, anxiety or depression. This article examines the psychosomatic symptoms among university students in Malaysia in the context of e-learning. Psychosomatic Symptoms Questionnaire-5 (PSQ-5) is used to measure the level of psychosomatic symptoms experienced by students. A comprehensive data set of 700 respondents was collected and analyzed using SPSS software. The findings of the study found that all respondents experienced moderate to severe psychosomatic symptoms. These findings are meaningful to policymakers in shaping the direction of T&L, especially in the face of challenges arising from the Education 5.0 paradigm. Therefore, it is important that psychosomatic symptoms are addressed to strengthen the education system and build a conducive environment so that the implementation of e-learning is more effective.

Published: October 2024

Setiap insan yang bergelar guru mempunyai kemahiran khusus dalam penggunaan Bahan Bantu Mengajar kerana amalan penerapan BBM ini begitu akrab sebagai satu bentuk sokongan bagi memastikan pemahaman murid di dalam bilik darjah. Proses penyediaan BBM dalam pengajaran memerlukan guru merancang terlebih dahulu sebelum kelas berlangsung kerana ianya perlu direkod di dalam Rancangan Pengajaran Harian (RPH). Kajian ini adalah bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti kemahiran penggunaan BBM oleh guru pelatih Fakulti Pendidikan Universiti Islam Selangor (UIS) semasa menjalani latihan mengajar di sekolah. Seramai 80 orang guru pelatih telah dipilih sebagai populasi kajian, dengan 66 orang dijadikan sampel berdasarkan Jadual Penentuan Saiz Sampel Krejcie dan Morgan. Sampel terdiri daripada pelajar semester lapan Ijazah Sarjana Muda Pendidikan Islam dengan Multimedia dan Ijazah Sarjana Muda Pengajaran Bahasa Inggeris sebagai Bahasa Kedua (TESL) serta pelajar semester enam Diploma Perguruan (Pendidikan Islam) yang menjalani latihan mengajar di sekolah dalam negeri Selangor, wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, wilayah Persekutuan Putrajaya dan Negeri Sembilan. Reka bentuk kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kuantitatif dengan menggunakan borang soal selidik bagi mendapatkan maklumat daripada responden. Soal selidik difokuskan kepada dua bahagian iaitu Bahagian A mempunyai 3 item dan ianya berkenaan dengan demografi responden. Manakala Bahagian B pula mengandungi soalan yang mempunyai 10 item berkaitan kemahiran penggunaan BBM oleh guru pelatih. Data kajian dianalisis dengan menggunakan perisian program Statistical for Social Science (SPSS) versi 25.0 bagi menguji frekuensi, peratusan, min dan sisihan piawaian. Secara keseluruhannya, hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa kemahiran penggunaan BBM oleh guru pelatih berada pada tahap sederhana tinggi. Ini mencadangkan bahawa walaupun terdapat kesedaran tentang kepentingan BBM, pelaksanaan dan kekerapan penggunaannya perlu ditingkatkan. Cadangan penambahbaikan termasuk memperkukuhkan latihan guru dalam penggunaan BBM dan menyediakan lebih banyak sumber serta alat sokongan untuk memudahkan pengajaran. Dengan pendekatan ini, diharapkan kemahiran dan kekerapan penggunaan BBM oleh guru pelatih dapat dipertingkatkan.

equação “tempo = dinheiro” como campo transcendental capitalista
Authors: Dos Santos Pirola Émerson
Published: October 2024

O artigo propõe, através da filosofia deleuzeana e da pesquisa em teoria monetária social de base simmeliana, um estudo transcendental sobre a natureza do dinheiro, que o afirma como campo de individuação múltipla, procurando uma resposta ao problema do dinheiro que vá além do nível empírico. Através de intuições marxistas e marxianas (principalmente com Postone), o artigo propõe um modo de entender como se deu e se dá a identificação entre tempo e dinheiro sob a máquina social capitalista, através da emergência do tempo abstrato e descodificado. Assim, o tempo-dinheiro acaba por constituir o campo transcendental em que se subjetivam os sujeitos capitalistas, bem como o campo de individuação que define o que será ou não produzido e consumido, quando, como e por quem. Analisamos então como a subjetivação se dá de modo desigual e diferencial entre ricos e pobres, capitalistas e proletários, visto que a uns o tempo, em suas três dimensões (passado, presente e futuro), lhes pertence, e a outros lhes escapa, lhes é capturado. Por fim, discutimos o papel da economia de dívida nessa subjetivação e ligamos o fenômeno ao horizonte de expectativas decrescentes (Arantes) que marca o contemporâneo, em que o porvir é fechado de antemão, submetido ao passado enquanto capital acumulado, trabalho morto.
Grupo de estudos em esquizoanálise

Published: October 2024

Este artigo tem por objetivo realizar um estudo de caso clínico-institucional de um grupo de estudos de esquizoanálise. Partindo da experiência do grupo no que se refere à dificuldade de permanência nele, com entradas e saídas constantes de pessoas, utilizou-se uma metodologia cartográfica com destaque para o acompanhamento de processos e a tomada do coletivo de forças como plano da experiência. Dessa forma, chegou-se à formulação de que tais entradas e saídas seriam um analisador do grupo, podendo esse indicar, no que se refere à leitura da obra de Deleuze e Guattari, a modalidade grupal como uma aposta potente e mais acolhedora não apenas para o estudo desses autores mas também para certa formação clínica. Para além da vivência específica do grupo, tal analisador também pode apontar uma dificuldade no momento atual, em decorrência de nossa sociedade neoliberal, de constituição de grupalidades e de fomento pela busca de respostas individualizantes e imediatas para problemas que possuem certa complexidade. Nesse sentido, a criação de grupos surge como um modo de resistência a tal modo de vida neoliberal, indicando possibilidades inauditas de transformação da realidade.

Authors: Nomura Joelma Iamac , Mello Elisabete Marcon
Published: October 2024

O presente trabalho tem como proposta apresentar a contribuição de diferentes Cenários para Investigação construídos à luz da Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (ABP) no ensino e aprendizagem de diferentes objetos matemáticos no ensino superior. A busca pelos diferentes Cenários para Investigação poderá estimular novas soluções e análises, o desenvolvimento de estratégias e o pensamento crítico dos alunos das graduações investigadas. Nesse sentido, destacamos a questão norteadora de nossa investigação: Quais Cenários para Investigação construídos à luz da ABP podem efetivamente estimular o pensamento crítico e estratégico do estudante no ensino superior? Destacamos que esta questão visa contribuir para a identificação de diferentes conceitos matemáticos, e evidenciar o papel de aspectos interdisciplinares relacionados aos objetos matemáticos investigados e ao campo de atuação profissional dos futuros egressos. Apoiamo-nos nas principais ideias adotadas por Skovsmose (2000) e Alro e Skovsmose (2007) para subsidiar a definição de diferentes Cenários para Investigação, e em Munhoz (2005) para fundamentar nossa análise a respeito do papel da ABP no desenvolvimento desses cenários. Para a efetivação da coleta de dados e posterior análise, consideramos a pesquisa exploratória de cunho documental como uma técnica valiosa de abordagem de dados qualitativos. Como resultado, identificamos que os autores das pesquisas elencadas buscam retratar Cenários para Investigação fortemente relacionados a temas atuais e reais como o de microcefalia e o da poluição ambiental, trazendo importantes reflexões sobre questões ambientais, jurídicas e éticas.
A efetivação da garantia constitucional do direito à educação para as pessoas idosas como fator dissociativo à violência
Authors: Andrade Luciana Viana Cidronio de , Gomes Fábio Alves , Lima Helton Carlos Praia de , Holanda Ellen Oliveira Nobre
Published: October 2024

O crescimento da população idosa é um fenômeno mundial que segue acompanhado de vários desafios, entre eles, a contenção dos números de violência contra as pessoas idosas. O objetivo do presente artigo foi conhecer as informações sobre a violência contra as pessoas idosas, na cidade de Manaus, no primeiro semestre de 2024, e sua incidência considerando o nível de escolarização dessas vítimas, a partir dos dados de violência divulgados pelo Ministério do Direitos Humanos e da Secretaria de Segurança Pública do Estado do Amazonas. Identificou-se que o número de vítimas, com baixo nível de escolarização apresentaram maior índice que nas vítimas com maior grau de instrução. Há uma grande ausência de políticas públicas para esta população geral, embora a educação seja uma garantia constitucional e um direito fundamental previsto a todos os brasileiros, indistintamente. A falta de escolarização potencializa a vulnerabilidade das pessoas idosas para o recebimento de violência, que ocorrem, em sua maioria, no seu próprio domicílio, considerando que essas pessoas possuem menor autonomia frente aos seus agressores. A pesquisa se caracterizou como um estudo de abordagem quantitativa, do tipo documental e bibliográfica. Diante do crescente número dos casos de violência contra pessoas idosas, as vias de enfrentamento à violência, se devem aliar à políticas de educação, a fim de que se possa proporcionar maior independência e autonomia às vítimas de violência, encorajando-as à buscar ajuda e assim, diminuir o crescente número de casos relatados, ano após ano.
Detriments and Benefits in Collaborative Memory of Social Information: Insight From Gender Stereotypes
Authors: Nie Aiqing , Li Mengmeng
Published: October 2024

Stereotypes are well documented to elicit stereotype-consistent effects in individual memory. Additionally, collaborative memory can result in detrimental collaborative inhibition and 2 beneficial effects: error pruning and postcollaborative memory benefit. We examined whether the stereotype-consistent effect can be expanded to the context of collaborative memory. Additionally, we examined whether the effects observed in collaborative memory also apply to the memory for social stereotypes. This study applied positive, neutral, and negative gender stereotype words and engaged participants in an individual study and 2 recall tests. Recall 1 was completed either individually or collaboratively, whereas Recall 2 was always performed individually. The recall was to remember both the studied words and the speaker's gender associated with them, testing both item memory and source memory. (a) We expanded the stereotype-consistent effect to both ongoing and postcollaboration situations, affecting both item memory and source memory. Additionally, in the word gender–speaker inconsistent situations, there was an involuntary bias to remember the sources of own-gender stimuli. (b) We extended the detrimental and beneficial effects of collaboration into the domain of gender stereotypes. The detrimental effect of collaborative inhibition was sensitive to both memory tasks and the emotional valence of stimuli. This indicates that when dealing with social stimuli, the disruption of preferential strategies is not confined. The beneficial effects acted as a function of the memory task, providing evidence for the conditional application of the mechanisms of the retrieval strategy disruption hypothesis and the processes of dual process theory in social memory processing.
A Review of Common Acceleration Models in Accelerated Life Testing
Authors: Zhao Ling
Published: October 2024

The core of accelerated life testing (ALT) is the development of acceleration models. These models can be classified into three types based on their underlying methodologies: physics-based, empirical inductive, and statistical inference models. This paper primarily examines the acceleration models that are commonly applied in engineering practice and presents the relevant computational formulas to highlight the fundamental research methodologies of ALT. Additionally, the paper underscores that ALT is increasingly recognized as a vital and emerging trend, driven by its role in shortening design cycles, enhancing product reliability, and managing costs.

This paper investigates the optimization of SEPIC-Cuk DC-DC converters to enhance efficiency and compactness, addressing the increasing demands of modern power converters. Given the topological structure, a paralleling approach is crucial due to its potential to improve both size and performance. Utilizing a bipolar SEPIC-Cuk configuration, this research meticulously evaluates, refines, and validates an experimental prototype of a bipolar DC-DC converter. To achieve optimal outcomes, the investigation employs a multi-objective metaheuristic optimization technique, focusing on efficiency and size attributes to design a cost-effective converter. The selection of design parameters - including switching frequency, capacitance, inductance, and power electronic switches - is integral to the optimization process. The proposed converter features a single switch control mechanism to operate a single input and dual output structure, ensuring high efficiency while enhancing converter response and minimizing ripple. A laboratory prototype of a low-cost 300 W converter, designed for a bipolar DC microgrid as a photovoltaic optimizer, has been developed and tested, accommodating an input voltage range of 20 V to 60 V and supporting standard output voltages. Experimental results demonstrate an average efficiency of 97.5% and 98.35% for a 300 W load, validating the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. Additionally, a comprehensive comparison between theoretical predictions and experimental findings is presented, confirming the validity and applicability of the proposed methodology.
Neuroprotective effect of olive leaf extract in the mouse neuroblastoma cell line (NB2a): A good model to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of natural products
Authors: Olmez Ercument , Dariverenli Ertan , Vural Kamil , Fafal Tugce , Tatli Dilek , Kivcak Bijen
Published: October 2024

Chronic neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, whose prevalence increases with aging, cause serious health problems with inadequate treatment options. Long-term exposure to low doses of pesticides like chlorpyrifos has been linked to an increased risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases. This study assessed the effects of olive leaf extract (OLE) on cell viability and neurite outgrowth inhibition induced by chlorpyrifos (25 µM) using the mouse NB2a neuroblastoma cell line. High concentrations of OLE as 100 to 3000 µg/ml reduced cell viability, likely due to its anticancer properties. On the other hand, lower concentrations of OLE as 3, 10, 30 and 100 µg/ml significantly reversed the inhibition of neurite outgrowth caused by chlorpyrifos exposure, demonstrating a neuroprotective effect. In conclusion, the regular consumption of OLE may effectively slow or prevent the advancement of neurodegenerative diseases linked to long-term exposure to low-dose organophosphate pesticides. Furthermore, the chlorpyrifos-induced moderate neurotoxicity model can be employed as a valuable screening method for evaluating the neuroprotective potential of natural products, including various plant extracts.

Article: Preliminary Procedures at the General Court: More than Meets the Eye?
Authors: Ros Erik
Published: October 2024

From 1 October 2024, the General Court will have jurisdiction to hear preliminary rulings in a number of specific areas of EU law. These include VAT, excise duties, customs and tariff classification, compensation and assistance to travellers, and greenhouse gas emissions trading. In this article, the author discusses and evaluates this reform of the preliminary ruling procedure. Among other things, the article discusses the extent to which the reform contributes to reducing the workload of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). It is further argued that the reform could potentially go beyond a merely practical, technical reallocation of preliminary ruling powers. Any future extension of the General Court’s preliminary ruling jurisdiction to other jurisdictions will potentially fundamentally change the judicial structure of the EU and put the CJEU even more on the track of a constitutional court.
From the Voc to the Spac: At the Root of the Corporation’s Soul
Authors: D’Alvia Daniele
Published: October 2024

This article aims to provide a thorough analysis of the evolution of the company, starting from the inception of the first public company in the seventeenth century, namely the United East India Company (VOC), until the modern expression of a novel form of cash-shell company that in recent years has taken Wall Street by storm: the Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC). As opposed to common wisdom that would like to compare the SPAC to England’s South Sea Bubble of 1720, the paper argues that both the VOC and the SPAC have remarkable similarities by virtue of sharing one of the most important corporate features: ‘venturing beyond’ for special purposes, and being the instruments through which the dreams of entrepreneurs can be realised.
The Patient as a Consumer in the EU: Legal Provisions and Their Implementation Based on the Examples of Poland and Italy
Authors: Kopaczyńska-Pieczniak Katarzyna , Dumkiewicz Małgorzata , Bartolacelli Alessio
Published: October 2024

In this paper, we analyse the situation of the patients’ rights under the Polish and the Italian legislation, with a specific focus on the qualification of the patients in terms of consumers and of the healthcare facilities in terms of traders. We describe the different situations present in Poland and in Italy, in spite of the substantive harmonisation in the field of consumers’ protection at the European level. Nevertheless, the results of the analysis show that, even if healthcare treatments are left outside the scope of application of the consumers’ protection directives, including them would be far more advisable. This would also go in the same direction of the European rules in the field of cross-border mobility of patients and might contribute to the development of a common idea of trader which might include all the healthcare facilities. In fact, one of the findings of the article is the fact that many differences are still present in the domestic rules when it comes to the definition of the healthcare facility in term of trader and this is likely to prevent a consistent enactment of the regulations in the field.

This article examines the legal framework governing subsidies. It scrutinizes the manner in which green subsidies are treated under the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measure (ASCM). The main issue of the current system is that subsidies cannot be justified by a policy rationale. This paper then discusses some of the proposals made for the amendment of ASCM in order to provide states with sufficient policy space. This article examines the question of whether international climate change obligations are jus cogens norms, before ending with concluding remarks.
Article: The Contribution of the Canadian-European Partnership to the Integration of Sustainable Development Issues into the Multilateral Trading System
Authors: Comont Antoine
Published: October 2024

In their influential roles within the World Trade Organization (WTO), Canada and the European Union (EU) demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainable development and multilateralism, navigating challenges and opportunities. Plurilateral negotiations, particularly the Joint Statement Initiatives (JSI), underscore their dedication to addressing issues like services regulation and fostering inclusive trade. The institutional framework of their Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) provides a structured mechanism, with specialized committees like the one on Trade and Sustainable Development, to ensure transparency, regulatory cooperation, and trade promotion aligned with sustainable development goals. However, challenges persist in achieving consensus on binding commitments. The temptation of unilateralism, exemplified by the EU’s carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), raises concerns about its compatibility with WTO principles and the potential prioritization of sustainability over economic development. Despite these challenges, Canada and the EU continue to champion sustainable development in various international forums, emphasizing the importance of the WTO as the primary platform for reconciling trade and sustainability. The forthcoming thirteenth WTO Ministerial Conference in 2024 presents a crucial opportunity for these leaders to demonstrate a significant commitment to a balanced approach between economic development and sustainability in international trade.
Article: A Hamiltonian Moment for EU Taxation?
Authors: Bizioli Gianluigi
Published: October 2024

This contribution explores the possibility of a ‘Hamiltonian moment’ in the European Union (EU) public finances, drawing a parallel with the historical experience of the United States (US) in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It examines the different theoretical positions on the existence and scope of the EU’s authority to tax, as well as the legal and political challenges that such an authority would entail. It argues that the EU does have the power to levy taxes for funding its budget, based on Article 311 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the EU (TFEU), but that this power is constrained by the principles stemming from the common constitutional traditions, the respect for national identities, and the need for democratic legitimation. It suggests that a ‘Hamiltonian moment’ in the EU would require a qualitative change in the structure and size of the EU budget, as well as a stronger involvement of the European Parliament and the national parliaments in the decision-making process on the system of own resources.
The Dejudicialization of International Dispute Settlement: A Paradigm Shift in International Economic Law?
Authors: Du Ming , Peng Delei
Published: October 2024

The objective of this article is to reflect on the rise and decline of judicialization in international trade and investment regimes and explore the future of international economic dispute settlement. It makes three key arguments. First, the severe disjuncture between anticipated benefits of international dispute settlement and the actual costs imposed on states explains the emerging trend of dejudicialization in international economic law. Second, at least to some extent, dejudicialization is likely to be a staple feature of international economic law in the new era of deglobalization, climate crisis, and great power rivalry. Third, judicialization of international dispute settlement will not demise but substantial transformation is necessary to meet contemporary challenges.
Can the CPTPP’s Digital Format on Data Flows Serve a Role Model for the WTO?
Authors: Ni Kuei-Jung
Published: October 2024

Digital trade has grown at an unprecedented pace due to advancements in information technologies. The global COVID-19 pandemic further highlighted the importance of international digital transactions and created momentum for the negotiation of digital rules at the World Trade Organization (WTO). Large technology companies rely on free access to data and cross-border data flows, making them influential in shaping digital rule-making at bilateral, regional, and multilateral levels. The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) is currently the leading regional trade agreement (RTA) on digital trade, which aligns with the market-based approach. Australia, Singapore, and Japan, the main parties to the CPTPP, now play a key role in WTO digital negotiations. Their proposals, largely based on the CPTPP’s context, aim to liberalize data flows. However, many WTO members remain cautious of this approach, considering it may compromise regulatory autonomy and essential common interests, such as data sovereignty, privacy, and consumer protection.Though the CPTPP’s e-commerce chapter provides a comprehensive benchmark, fundamental problems with establishing cross-border digital rules remain unsolved at the WTO. This article will examine the limits of, and obstacles to, the realization of the CPTPP approach within the trade system, and propose a preliminary and progressive arrangement for global data governance.
Turkey: Certain Measures Concerning the Production, Importation and Marketing of Pharmaceutical Products: Critical Appraisal of the First WTO Article 25 Appeal Arbitration Award
Authors: Nedumpara James J. , Sharma Arnav
Published: October 2024

The Article 25 appeal arbitral award in the WTO dispute DS583: Turkey – Certain Measures concerning the Production, Importation and Marketing of Pharmaceutical Products has several distinctions. It emerges in the backdrop of the Covid-19 pandemic and at a time when the WTO continues to look for a solution to the ongoing Appellate Body impasse. On the substantive side, the dispute examines whether procurement by private entities towards public healthcare mandate could fall within the ‘government procurement’ derogation of the GATT 1994. In addition, the excessive focus on the ‘design test’ at the provisional stage in the invocation of general exceptions under GATT Article XX has key implications for future disputes. The dispute is also historic as it is the first time that parties to a WTO dispute took recourse to Article 25 of the WTO DSU, considered as an alternative form of dispute settlement, apparently to mimic the appellate review process which the Appellate Body used to perform. The article focuses on the substantive and procedural issues discussed in the dispute, and how the WTO Panel, and subsequently, an Article 25 arbitration addressed a number of such novel issues. In this exercise, the article also comments on the unique modus operandi of the Article 25 ad hoc arbitration mechanism.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Risk of Developing Dermatological Conditions
Authors: Basharat Rehman
Published: October 2024

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, has impacted global health across various medical domains, including dermatology. Dermatological manifestations are increasingly recognized in COVID-19 patients. This study aimed to evaluate the risk of developing dermatological conditions in patients with COVID-19 compared to non-COVID patients. Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed electronic health records (EHRs) from January 1, 2020, to January 1, 2022, including two cohorts: COVID-19 patients with confirmed diagnoses and non-COVID patients. The primary outcome was the development of new dermatological conditions within three months of the index date. Risk differences and risk ratios (RRs) were calculated to compare the cohorts. Confounding factors such as age, sex, race, and ethnicity were controlled during the statistical analysis. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: COVID-19 patients exhibited a significantly reduced risk for various dermatological conditions, including acne vulgaris (RR = 0.671), atopic dermatitis (RR = 0.649), and seborrheic dermatitis (RR = 0.606), among others. Certain rarer conditions, such as lichen planus (RR = 0.585) and basal cell carcinoma (RR = 0.517), also showed a decreased incidence. However, pallor was significantly more prevalent in COVID-19 patients (RR = 2.328), suggesting systemic vascular involvement. Conclusion: The findings indicate a reduced risk for many dermatological conditions in COVID-19 patients, possibly due to immune modulation and vascular alterations by the virus. Pallor’s increased prevalence in these patients underscores the broader systemic effects of COVID-19. These results contribute to our understanding of COVID-19's dermatological impacts, offering insights for better patient management and future research into the long-term effects on skin health.

Authors: Chen Fengyuan
Published: October 2024

During the Anti-Japanese War, as a Mongolian anti-Japanese armed army established with the help of the Simon Working Committee of the Communist Party of China, the newly organized Third Division played a key role in Suiyuan and Ikchao League. In the Bailingmiao Uprising, Suiyuan Resistance War and Ikchao League Resistance War, the newly formed third Division of the National Revolutionary Army promoted the Anti-Japanese War situation in Inner Mongolia to deepen. As a member of the Mongolian Communist Party, Ulanfu led the united front and political work in the New three Divisions, and promoted the development of the united front work of the Communist Party of China in the Ikchao League and Suiyuan area. The experience of the United front of the new three divisions has important implications for the Communist Party of China in dealing with the relations between minority armies.

Published: October 2024

PVV-5AVN explosive is a type of polymer-bonded explosive (PBX that typically comprises a mixture of RDX (hexogen), a high-explosive compound, and a polymer binder such as polyisobutylene. It finds extensive application in various generations of explosive reactive armor. This study investigates factors influencing the quality and specifications of PVV-5AVN explosives, including solvent choice, solvent ratio, mixing time, and ingredient proportions. Specifically, the RDX content is 85 ÷ 91%, and the binder system content is 9 ÷ 15% (with a DOS/PIB mass ratio of 2.75). These findings establish a fabricating process for laboratory-scale PVV-5AVN explosives that meets technical standards comparable to existing literature.
