APPLICATION OF CIRCULAR ECONOMY PRINCIPLES IN CAR MANUFACTURING: THE EXPERIENCE OF LEADING EUROPEAN CAR MANUFACTURERS
Authors: Matusiak Serhii ,   West Ukrainian National University
Published: July 2024

This article is part of a study of the trend of changes in the automotive industry, other industries, logistics and electricity that is currently taking place in the world and is significantly changing the global economy. It reflects modern approaches to automotive production based on environmental protection throughout the entire car production cycle – from manufacturing to waste recycling and reuse of materials, i.e. the implementation of circular economy principles. These processes are in line with the general trend of reducing CO2 emissions to zero from both the use of transport and its production and disposal. To this end, leading European automakers are already implementing zero-waste and carbon-free production. This article examines how to achieve this and what methods are most effective. The challenge is to identify the most effective methods of zero-carbon car production to reduce CO2 emissions during production. After all, the automotive industry has many production, logistics and ancillary processes that have an impact on the environment. This diversity of raw materials is compounded by the wide range of parts they are used in. In addition, automotive production requires the assembly of components. All of these processes require significant energy consumption to operate plants that emit significant carbon emissions. Therefore, sustainability in the automotive industry is achieved through a large number of innovations and implementations. The purpose of the article is to study the main methods of production of passenger cars of such brands as Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Renault, Skoda, Volvo, and to analyse the most efficient methods that ensure carbon-free production. Conclusions were drawn on the effectiveness of these methods and the most advanced and efficient ones were identified. The study shows that leading automakers can achieve carbon-free production in the coming years to meet the EU's commitments to reduce its carbon footprint under the Fit for 5 programme. This is achieved through the use of energy-saving technologies, green energy, and recycling of used materials.

Authors: Biletska Natalia ,   PHEE ",   Vinnytsia Institute of Designing of Clothes and Entrepreneurship"
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the definition and systematization of factors of influence and development on the investment attractiveness of the tourism and recreation industry. The insufficient level of information support reduces the interest of investors in financing tourism in Ukraine. The available information does not fully reflect the development of the industry, which does not stimulate investors. Despite the created legislative framework, complex procedures for harmonizing documents create barriers for investors. Investments are concentrated in the western and southern regions, where tourism is a priority. Economic justification, profitability calculations, payback period and business plan are required to attract investments. The formation of a favorable investment climate requires complex measures to improve the conditions of investors' activity and expand the mechanisms of investment projects. A system of influencing factors on the investment attractiveness of the country's tourism sphere is proposed, including factors reflecting the general state of the country's economy and its social stability; indicators that determine the degree of development and organization of tourist services; factors including assessment of physical infrastructure necessary for tourism development; availability of tourist resources; indicators including the total volume and dynamics of investments in the tourism sphere; factors that determine the legislative and regulatory framework that regulates tourist activity. A set of internal and external factors of investment attractiveness of the tourism and recreation industry is substantiated. Where among the domestic staffing of the tourism and recreation industry; availability of cross-border cooperation in the field of tourism and recreation with neighboring states; the level of technological equipment and the level of expenses and socio-economic indicators of the state's development. External ones include: the political and economic situation in the state; investment attractiveness of the state; guarantees of inviolability of investments; natural resource; and the cultural and historical potential of the state. Taking into account these factors will help to develop effective strategies for attracting investments and developing tourism infrastructure, which will contribute to the overall economic growth of the country.

Phenomenology of Reference in Male Seduction: “Pragmatic Love” by Alia Mamdouh as a Model
Authors: Abbas Ass.Prof Dr. Mohammed Jasim Mohammed
Published: July 2024

The research frames its critical approaches on two axes. The first deals with the "phenomenological concept," relying on its principal propositions, along with a section on procedural intersection based on philosophical comments that literary theorists have made consistent with the specificity of the literary work. This makes "the coupling of phenomenology with the conditions of literature" a key to the method's validity before concluding with the observation of "probability and the signs of appearance" and "reference and the ways of introspection."
 
The other axis explored the references to male seduction in the novel "Pragmatic Love" by the novelist "Alia Mamdouh." It observed the manifestations of reference in the seductive models it contained, where the male character "Bahr" exercised persuasive skill to attract the female "Rawiya," through studies of "reference through the logic of seduction," "reference through imaginative seduction," "reference through the culture of seduction," and "reference through physical seduction."
 
The research concluded with results, the most important of which was that Gadamer and Ricoeur contributed to the crystallization of a phenomenology reconciled with literature. Moreover, the studied novel broke the conventions of seduction and made its areas of effectiveness carry a referential energy that reorders the structure and meaning to achieve implicit plots, the evidence of which the reader creates.

La educación, sin duda, impacta en la transformación de las sociedades, pero a su vez su capacidad de cambio está condicionada por la relevancia que la misma sociedad le concede. En este círculo virtuoso que se puede establecer entre educación y transformación social es difícil identificar el verdadero valor agregado que aporta la educación si no se consideran de manera especial los contextos externos (mediato e inmediato) e internos (entradas y procesos) en que trabajan las escuelas o el profesorado. Impacto y relevancia de la educación son dos caras de una misma moneda: la acción educativa.

El offside constituye una regla de sanción de carácter deportivo cuyo propósito es mantener las condiciones de igualdad en la competición entre individuos o equipos. En el fútbol americano, este se produce en el momento en que cualquier parte del cuerpo de un jugador defensivo cruza la línea de scrimmage seguido del movimiento del balón que inicia la jugada. Esta situación deportiva es ilustrativa de los comportamientos de tiempo de reacción, anticipación y táctica de algunos jugadores dentro del campo de juego. El presente texto ofrece una explicación funcional psicológica general, desde el llamado Modelo Teórico de Campo, de los diferentes comportamientos en situaciones de offside dentro del fútbol americano. Se describen los niveles funcionales, parámetros y finalidades adaptativas, así como las variaciones cuantitativas del campo psíquico que podrían explicar la ocurrencia de este tipo de penalizaciones deportivas. De manera adicional, se propone una serie de lineamientos que podría ser de utilidad para el psicólogo conductual del deporte en un programa de entrenamiento de fútbol americano y eventual aplicación en la ganancia de yardas
Assessing the impact of COVID-19 on Toronto's Spanish-speaking Latin American population: Qualitative study
Authors: Molina Irma , Sanford Sarah , Oyuela Raul , Roche Brenda , Sirotich Frank
Published: July 2024

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified pre-existing health, social, and economic disparities in Canada, particularly affecting racialized, immigrant, refugee, and newcomer communities. While existing research indicates that Latin Americans have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic, questions remain about why this group faces greater risk and worse health and other outcomes compared with the rest of the population. Despite knowledge of inequities in Toronto and elsewhere, research remains limited on the perspectives and experiences of specific communities throughout the pandemic. Methods: This qualitative research focuses on the experiences of Spanish-speaking Latin Americans in Toronto who contracted COVID-19, had family members and friends who were sick from the virus, and/or provided services to Latin Americans in the city during the pandemic. Results: The study highlights challenges related to informal caregiving, language barriers in accessing healthcare, digital inequities, and difficulties faced by individuals with precarious immigration status. Conclusion: Understanding the experiences of Spanish-speaking Latin Americans in Toronto can help identify necessary support and services to address these inequities in a post-pandemic scenario.
The aftermath: A secondary analysis of OECD countries’ healthcare system responses to COVID-19
Authors: Khadem Sameni Mona
Published: July 2024

Several proponents believe a universal healthcare system might have allowed the United States to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic more effectively, potentially leading to less devastating outcomes. Yet, comprehensive studies assessing this assertion on an international scale across multiple pandemic phases are sparse. This study evaluates the COVID-19 response efficacy in OECD countries, contrasting single-payer with multiple-payer healthcare frameworks. Data from different pandemic phases through to October 2023, suggest a single-payer system correlate with reduced death rates, diminished excess mortality, and overall lower cumulative excess mortality. Notably, among the high-income OECD nations, the U.S. ranks lowest in pandemic response. Such findings underscore the significant impact of disparities in healthcare access. Essentially, these inequities can debilitate a healthcare infrastructure to the extent that it lags nations with similar socio-economic, demographic, and health profiles.
Self-management practices among diabetic patients during the COVID 19 pandemic: Systematic review
Authors: Nandasena H.M.R.K.G. , Prasanga P.T.S.
Published: July 2024

Introduction: Self-management is crucial in diabetes care and assessing its impact during the COVID-19 pandemic is vital. This systematic review examines the pandemic's influence on self-management practices among diabetic patients. Methods: We conducted searches in PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Science Direct from December 2019 to June 2021. Included studies evaluated the effect of COVID-19 on self-management practices in diabetic patients. After removing duplicates, two independent reviewers conducted title and abstract reviews, followed by full-text screening, in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. Results: Of 1083 records, nine studies were included, comprising 5279 patients with sample sizes ranging from 52 to 1510. During the pandemic, most self-management practices remained relatively stable. Improvements were observed in dietary control (1% to 82.6%), self-blood glucose monitoring (11.3% to 47.1%), medication adherence (8.1% to 18.4%), weight management (19% to 40.9%), and physical activity (1% to 25.7%). Notably, physical activity showed a decrease (19% to 69.1%) during the pandemic. Conclusion: Compared to the pre-pandemic period, dietary control exhibited the most significant improvement, while physical activity demonstrated the least increase. Medication adherence and self-blood glucose monitoring were relatively better than other self-management practices. It is imperative to enhance self-management practices in diabetic patients during similar pandemics.
Social ageing varies within a population of bottlenose whales
Authors: Walmsley Sam , Feyrer Laura , Girard Claire , Zwamborn Elizabeth , Whitehead Hal
Published: July 2024

How social behaviour changes as individuals age has important consequences for the health and function of both human and non-human societies. However, the extent of inter-individual variation in social ageing has been underappreciated, especially in natural populations of animals. Here, we leverage a photo-identification dataset spanning 35 years to examine social ageing in an Endangered population of northern bottlenose whales (Hyperoodon ampullatus), an oceanic beaked whale that exhibits fission-fusion social dynamics. Patterns of social ageing were sex-specific: males experienced a decline in social behaviour with age, shedding direct social connections and holding less central social roles. Conversely, female social traits were generally stable throughout adulthood, while the average strength of their relationships increased with age. Beyond sex, additional inter-individual variation played a large role in how animals responded socially to age. This study shows that inter-individual variation can play a key role in how animals experience behavioural senescence.

1. While cetaceans are known to produce large and complex acoustic repertoires, the challenges of exhaustively sampling sounds at sea and counting relevant signals has precluded an understanding of their true repertoire diversity. 2. Here we quantify and compare the whistle repertoires of 16 populations in the genus Sotalia, belonging to two sister species, the Guiana dolphin (Sotalia guianensis) and the tucuxi (Sotalia fluviatilis), both endemic to Latin America. We used an adaptive resonance theory neural network combined with dynamic time-warping (ARTwarp) to categorize whistles into types. Applying recent methods from community ecology, we then determined the size of each population’s repertoire and estimated β-diversity between sites while accounting for differences in sampling effort. 3. Our analysis included a total of 1,817 whistles from 16 populations along the Atlantic coast of Latin America and six in the Amazon Basin, distributed throughout the range of the genus Sotalia. Contrary to previous studies comparing acoustic parameters alone, this whistle contour type based analysis reveals significant differences in the composition of each population’s repertoire, with 21% of types being unique to a single population. We also identified surprisingly large variation in repertoire size, estimating some populations to have up to 20-times more whistle types than others. 4. Our findings reveal substantial intraspecific variation in the whistle repertoires of two sister delphinid species. This suggests that repertoire diversity and size are strongly influenced by population-specific processes, rather than being constant within species. Further application of these methods for comparison across unevenly sampled populations will open the door for new insights into the evolutionary and ecological drivers of odontocete repertoires, and can also be applied to other animal groups.

Published: July 2024

A total of 96 broiler chickens, aged 28 days were fed palm kernel meal (PKM) diets supplemented with cellulase at the finisher phase. The birds were allotted to four diets, each replicated three times, with 8 birds per replicate in a Completely Randomized Design. Final weight decreased (1740.04g-973.00g) with PKM level. However, 20%PKM birds (1000.09g) were similar to 30%PKM (973.00g). Daily weight gain (60.41g-23.83g) and daily feed intake (120.25g-54.56g) followed similar trend as final weight. Feed conversion ratio was best (P<0.05) in 0% PKM group (2.00) and poorest in 20% PKM birds (2.37). Bled weight was significantly affected (P<0.05), birds fed 0%PKM (1616.75g) and 10%PKM (1608.38g) were similar but different from 20%PKM (1325.05g) and 30%PKM (1290.05g). De-feathered weight decreased (1563.36g-1221.73g) with level of PKM. Eviscerated weight (1345.09g-1078.31g) and dressing percentage (74.39-70.67) showed similar trend of variation as live-weight. Head, neck, leg, drumstick, thigh, back, wing, breast, intestine and gizzard varied significantly (P<0.05). Drumstick and thigh were highest in birds fed 10%PKM (11.07g/11.57g) and lowest in birds fed 20% PKM (9.58g/10.84g). Back declined (14.53-12.59) with PKM level. Highest wing percentage was in 30%PKM (8.29) and least in 20%PKM (7.81). Highest breast percentage was in 20%PKM (20.98) and least in 0%PKM (19.90). Intestine was highest in 0%PKM (11.58) and least in 10%PKM (9.53). The gizzard increased (5.55-6.96) with PKM. Heart and liver were not affected (P>0.05). PKM with cellulase supplementation could be fed to finisher broiler chickens up to 10% for improved growth response and carcass yield.

Published: July 2024

The study was carried out to examine the market structure and conduct of Nsukka yellow pepper in Enugu State, Nigeria. Specifically, the study sought to: describe the socio-economic characteristics of Nsukka yellow pepper marketers, examine the market structure of Nsukka yellow pepper, determine the marketing channel and conduct, and identify the constraints militating against the marketing of Nsukka yellow pepper. Purposive and multistage random sampling technique and a well-structured and validated questionnaire were used in the study. Based on the findings, the males (60%) dominated the wholesale market, while the females (90%) dominated the retail market of Nsukka yellow pepper in the study area. There was relatively a high-income inequality and degree of concentration with the Gini-coefficient of 0.584 in wholesaling against 0.524 in the retailing level of the crop. Five distributive channels (producers- marketing agents – wholesalers- retailers-consumers) were identified in the marketing of Nsukka yellow pepper. Major constraints among others include cost of transportation (93.3%), seasonality (63.3%) and perishability (86.7%) of the product and marketing charges (92.2%). It was recommended that Nsukka yellow pepper marketers should form cooperative societies to help them properly dispose their products, strengthen their capital base and easily assess credit facilities. Enlightenment campaigns about the crop should be embarked upon and the channels of distribution should be improved to help reduce the problem facing the marketers in the disposal of the product.

Authors: Yati Kori , Nugrahaeni Fitria , Melinda Rika , Wati Lilis Rokimah
Published: July 2024

The flesh of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) contains carotenoid compounds that act as antioxidants. The purpose of this study was to determine the variation in the concentration of carbopol 940 on physical properties, irritation tests, and the stability of emulgel antioxidants against temperature and storage time. Evaluation of the physical properties of C. lanatus pulp extract emulgel includes organoleptic, homogeneity, dosage pH, dispersion, adhesion, emulsion type, viscosity as well as hedonic test and irritation test. Antioxidant stability testing of emulgel was carried out for 28 days at three temperature conditions: 4, 25, and 40°C and tested on days 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28 with the DPPH method. The results of the physical properties evaluation meet the requirements with pH values of 5.50–5.57, dispersion 5–6 cm, adhesion <4 seconds, viscosity 5624–15443 cPs, F2 and F3 hedonic tests are preferred by researchers, and irritation tests of all formulas show no irritation symptoms to all refiners. The results of antioxidant stability of emulgel after storage on the 28th day showed an average result of IC50 temperature of 4°C (112.4547 ± 0.1432 mg/L), 25°C (119.3170 ± 0.1966 mg/L), and 40°C (124.1554 ± 0.1317 mg/L). The results of stability analysis show that temperature and storage duration affect antioxidant stability. The higher the temperature and duration of storage, the antioxidant stability of emulgel decreases. Storage of C. lanatus flesh extract emulgel at 4°C was able to maintain antioxidant activity for 28 days of storage.

Published: July 2024

Parkinson's disease is a global health challenge affecting over 10 million individuals worldwide, leading to increased disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and a rise in mortality rates. This study explores the potential anti-Parkinson's properties of Xylocarpus granatum, focusing on its interaction with key enzymes associated with the disease: catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR), and monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B). Using molecular docking and molecular dynamics approaches with YASARA Structure, the ethanol extract of X. granatum was investigated for its mechanism of action. Among 30 compounds, five demonstrated promising binding affinities. Structural flexibility analysis revealed minimal fluctuations in active-site residues, highlighting the stability of key complexes involving kaempferol, epicatechin, epigallocatechin, and native ligands. Molecular Mechanics Poisson–Boltzmann Surface Area (MM-PBSA) simulations provided insights into the binding energy of these complexes. Notably, kaempferol exhibited higher binding energy than the natural ligand, suggesting superior binding affinity. Analysis of the average radius of gyration (Rg) showcased control drug-MAO-B exhibited higher Rg values, indicating a more flexible protein conformation. Confirming mode stability with root mean square deviation (RMSD) analysis shows overall stability, except in the A2AR-bound complex. The study's collective findings underscore the structural stabilization of ligand-protein complexes, contributing valuable insights into the potential anti-Parkinson's properties of X. granatum. These discoveries hold promise for developing more effective therapies for Parkinson's disease and significantly contribute to the neurology field.
