The Role of Authentic Materials in EFL Education: Maximizing Student Engagement and Language Acquisition
Authors: Mitrulescu Corina Mariana , Negoescu Alina Gabriela
Published: July 2024

This paper attempts to explore the motivational effects that stem from the use of authentic materials in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning contexts. Additionally, it provides some suggestions with respect to how educators can frame materials to increase students’ understanding and subsequently keep up and improve their motivation. Authentic materials have nowadays become an important part of second language classes mainly because they provide semantic input to students and enable them to interact with a wide variety of information that allows them not only to find inspiration but also to become motivated learners. Foreign language teachers use a wide variety of authentic materials, from menus, leaflets and magazine articles to audio materials, such as recorded radio programs, TV shows and movies. There are many reasons why these materials are used, but EFL teachers mostly view them as a means to provide students with real-world language input that is able to motivate them.
Considerations on the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Military Engineering Operations
Authors: Andrei Constantin , Bucăţa George
Published: July 2024

Contemporary society is going through a period of deep transformations generated by the emergence and implementation of advanced technologies. Of all these, Artificial Intelligence (AI) stands out as having the greatest potential to generate profound changes in postmodern society, with strong implications in most areas of social life, especially in military competition. War, a social phenomenon of major relevance to human communities, is no exception to this reality, and artificial intelligence (AI) represents a “potential game changer” in the field of leading and executing military actions, with the possibility of introducing significant adjustments in the principles, rules, methods and procedures of preparing and conducting military actions, at all levels - strategic, operational and tactical. At the same time, the rapid growth of the global population, together with the phenomenon of increased urbanization, makes the urban environment one of the main environments in which the military operations of the future will be carried out. The complexity and high degree of difficulty of such environments (multi-layering, reduced mobility and high vulnerability of forces) bring with them various challenges for engineering support operations. For this reason, adjustments are needed at the level of operations planning, endowment with autonomous systems and equipment, as well as at the level of the selection process, recruitment and training of human resources.
Technological Processes in the Production of Sustainable Aviation Fuels
Authors: Benkov Ivan
Published: July 2024

Air transport expansion in recent decades has been continuous. The main aviation fuels used so far are mainly petroleum products, the annual consumption of which (2017) amounts to approximately 300 Mt. The gases emitted by the aviation industry (carbon dioxide CO2, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide) exert a powerful pressure on the environment. The development of the aviation industry will also provoke a growing demand for fuels, and the fuels used will deepen the environmental, social and economic effects. This necessitates the implementation of the concept of sustainability of aviation transport and the replacement of conventional with sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). In the coming years, the production of aviation biofuels will increase as part of the use of renewable energy and the development of the circular economy-bioeconomy. This report briefly presents the current status of developed and deployed bioreactive fuels in aviation; certified technologies; the potential raw materials that can be used and an assessment of the economic and environmental characteristics of biokerosenes. The report also indicates global initiatives and policies to promote the use of biofuels, as well as the commitments made by the airlines.
SEM/EDX and FTIR/ATR Behavior of Ammonium Perchlorate Under Accelerated Aging in a New Solid Rocket Motor Fuel Composition with Superior Explosive and Mechanical Performance
Authors: Marin Alexandru , Sandu Maria-Daniela , Iorga George-Ovidiu , Epure Gabriel , Moşteanu Dănuț
Published: July 2024

The oxidation potential of perchlorates is high, which makes this material suitable for fuels with high specific impulse. Perchlorates are characterized by a ClO4- moiety/anion in their molecular structure and are crystalline materials used in the formation of solid fuels. Ammonium perchlorate (AP) particle size and shape influence the manufacturing process of fuels and their burning rate. The physical and chemical processes that can occur in the natural degradation process of composite fuels are related to molecular reactions and diffusion phenomena governed by kinetic processes and can be accelerated by increasing the temperature.

The paper presents studies carried out by scanning electron microscopy and infrared spectrometry on the behavior of ammonium perchlorate in the new composite material of solid rocket motor fuel under the effect of high temperature, in the range of 65-85οC, at regular time intervals. The self-initiation temperature was also determined, with a temperature rise rate controlled at 5ºC/minute.

It is very likely that these accelerated aging studies will show the changes that occur in the stability, sensitivity, mechanical and functional properties of fuels during their lifetime.

Does the Conflict-Related News from Donbass Affect the Volatility of the Renewable Energy Market?
Authors: ERYILMAZ Serkan , ERGÜNEY Enes Burak , ZEREN Feyyaz , GÜRSOY Samet
Published: July 2024

The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has deeply affected many countries, mainly EU member states, and has led to an energy crisis. However, this war is also an opportunity for the world to transition from fossil fuels to clean energy because the renewable energy transition has the potential to both reduce Russia’s energy revenues and ensure the EU’s energy security. For this reason, many countries are planning to invest in the renewable energy sector both to prevent Russia’s aggressive behaviour and to overcome the energy crisis. In this context, the study aims to investigate the existence of a dynamic relationship between the intensity of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the renewable energy stock market. For this purpose, we adopt a DC-MSV model with the number of conflict news in the Donbass region and ECO and ERIX return series data as proxies of the renewable energy market. As a result, we find that changes in the conflict intensity in the Donbass region do not affect the stock volatility of renewable energy companies, while there is a weak relationship between their returns.

Published: July 2024

Bond is a medium or long-term debt agreement which when the bond matures will be paid back with the interest. Bonds are issued to obtain new fund flows to meet operational needs and strengthen financial position.  One of the risks of bonds is credit risk. This risk occurs due to the issuer's inability to continue and complete its obligations. This risk often occurs in corporate bonds. So, investors need to conduct risk analysis and proper risk management. One method of credit risk analysis is the creditmetrics. In this method, credit score changes are not only caused by the probability of default, but also caused by migration of company ratings. This study aims to calculate the portfolio risk of six corporate bonds and determine the weight that must be given to each bond, so that the minimum risk will be obtained. The estimated portfolio risk obtained is Rp. 15.615 billion with an average portfolio value is Rp. 18.74 billion.

Karet merupakan salah satu komoditas pertanian yang sangat penting bagi Indonesia dan Internasional. Perolehan devisa yang diperoleh dari karet cukup mendukung, bahkan Indonesia unggul dalam menguasai produk karet dunia. PT. Hok Tong Jambi merupakan salah satu perusahaan yang memproduksi karet remah (Crumb Rubber) yang akan diekspor. PT. Hok Tong Jambi memproduksi karet remah hanya berdasarkan permintaan konsumen sehingga tidak ada persediaan produk di gudang. Dari permasalahan tersebut maka perlu dilakukan peramalan jumlah permintaan ekspor kedepan agar perusahaan dapat memperkirakan jumlah bahan baku yang dibutuhkan dan menyiapkan persediaan produk. Metode peramalan yang digunakan adalah metode ARIMA karena data jumlah ekspor karet bertipe data time series, dengan membaca plot ACF dan PACF untuk memprediksi data time series. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendapatkan model ARIMA terbaik yang akan digunakan untuk peramalan permintaan ekspor karet dan untuk mendapatkan hasil peramalan jumlah permintaan ekspor karet pada bulan Januari – Desember 2020. Data yang digunakan adalah data jumlah ekspor karet periode Januari 2016 – Desember 2020. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah: Pada penelitian ini diperoleh model ARIMA (1,0,1) atau ARMA (1,1) dengan persamaan matematis Z_n(l)=0 ,9996Z_n (l-1)+e_n (l)-0,9039e_n (l-1). Dan hasil prediksi jumlah permintaan ekspor karet dengan model ini cenderung menurun dari Januari hingga Desember 2021.
Rapid levothyroxine absorption test for assessment of nonadherence to levothyroxine treatment: a case series of six patients

Background:

Failure to treat persistent hypothyroidism despite the use of adequately prescribed doses of levothyroxine should be evaluated for malabsorption and nonadherence to medication. Previous literature suggested that orally administered levothyroxine showed maximum absorption at or near 2 hours. This rapid absorption suggests the use of a 2-hour levothyroxine absorption test as an alternative to long, cumbersome protocols. Limited data are available measuring free thyroxine (FT4) levels at 2 hours after oral administration of 1,000 mcg of levothyroxine.

Case Presentation:

Six patients who continued to have hypothyroidism despite taking ostensibly high doses of levothyroxine underwent a 2-hour protocol levothyroxine absorption test. All patients were given 1,000 mcg of levothyroxine, and serum levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), FT4, and free triiodothyronine (FT3) were measured at 0, 60, and 120 minutes. All patients showed an increasing trend in FT4 in subsequent samples at 60 and 120 minutes, compared to baseline values, providing strong evidence of peak levothyroxine absorption at 2 hours. Five patients had raised baseline TSH levels, indicating nonadherence to treatment, and one had normal baseline TSH levels, indicating adherence to levothyroxine therapy on prior test scheduling, with increased FT3 and FT4 levels in subsequent samples at 60 and 120 minutes.

Conclusion:

We conclude that the rapid levothyroxine absorption test, using a 2-hour protocol, is a more convenient method to differentiate nonadherence from malabsorption. Moreover, scheduling the patient will result in adherence to levothyroxine therapy in some patients.

Published: July 2024

Canine hepatozoonosis is a widespread tick-borne protozoan disease and generally affects domestic dogs. Diagnosis can be made via PCR, serology, and direct observation of the gamonts of the parasite on stained blood smears. In the present case, a four-year-old female crossbred hunting dog presented to Balikesir University Veterinary Faculty clinics of internal medicine with a history of exercise intolerance, and weight loss for ten days. The dog was highly infected and showed anemia, thrombocytopenia, and neutrophilia. In radiographic analysis, unilateral pulmonary pathology was determined. This case report can be important for clinicians who live in Turkey to recognize the parasite.
RESOLVING THE PROBLEMATIC ARRANGEMENT OF THE TRIUMVIRATE AS INTERIM PRESIDENT IN INDONESIA: INSIGHTS FROM GABON AND AUSTRIA

Published: July 2024

This article presents the challenges associated with the triumvirate concept as an interim presidential arrangement in Indonesia and alternative statutory regulations. This normative legal research was performed to determine whether Indonesia's current triumvirate arrangement adequately addresses extraordinary events such as a vacuum of power. The statute approach and the comparative approach were employed in this research. The results showed that Indonesia's triumvirate arrangements are insufficient and comparatively simplistic when contrasted with other countries employing similar concepts. To strengthen Indonesia's framework, it is crucial to examine the regulatory frameworks of comparable nations, with a particular focus on insights from Gabon and Austria.

OBJECTIVES: To describe a case series of children diagnosed with Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection with atypical dermatologic manifestations, in order to broaden the picture of possibilities for differential diagnoses in cases of similar clinical presentations. METHODS: This is a series of cases in which were included all patients aged between zero and 18 years and who, between January, 2018 and November, 2020, were admitted to the emergency department of a pediatric public hospital, presenting atypical cutaneous manifestations associated with a clinical-epidemiological or laboratory diagnosis of CHIKV. RESULTS: A total of six patients were screened from a cohort of 432 patients. Of these, four were female and five were under one year of age. The most reported manifestations were fever of sudden onset, besides exanthema and bullous skin lesions, mainly affecting the limbs. There was hospitalization of five of patients, without deaths. CONCLUSION: Cutaneous presentations are of different magnitude according to the age range affected by CHIKV, especially for children under one year of age, affecting mainly extremity areas of the body surface. It is therefore worth noting that pediatric patients deserve greater attention and early care, in order to reduce complications from the infection and thus also the morbidity of the affected population.
