Abstract. Heterogeneous reactions occurring at the surface of atmospheric aerosol particles regulate the production and lifetime of a wide array of atmospheric gases. Aerosol surface area plays a critical role in setting the rate of heterogeneous reactions in the atmosphere. Despite the central role for aerosol surface area, there are few assessments of the accuracy of aerosol surface area concentrations in regional and global models. In this study, we compare aerosol surface area concentrations in the EPA’s Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model with commensurate observations from the 2011 NASA flight-based DISCOVER-AQ (Deriving Information on Surface Conditions from COlumn and VERtically Resolved Observations Relevant to Air Quality) campaign. The study region includes the Baltimore and Washington, DC metropolitan area. Dry aerosol surface area was measured aboard the NASA P-3B aircraft using an Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer (UHSAS). We show that modeled and measured dry aerosol surface area, Sa,mod and Sa,meas respectively, are modestly correlated (r2 = 0.52) and on average agree to within a factor of two (Sa,mod/Sa,meas = 0.44) over the course of the 13 research flights. We show that Sa,mod/Sa,meas does not depend strongly on photochemical age or the concentration of secondary biogenic aerosol, suggesting that the condensation of low-volatility gas-phase compounds does not strongly affect model-measurement agreement. In comparison, there is strong agreement between measured and modeled aerosol number concentration (Nmod/Nmeas = 0.87, r2 = 0.63). The persistent underestimate of Sa in the model, combined with strong agreement in modeled and measured aerosol number concentrations, suggests that model representation of the size distribution of primary emissions or secondary aerosol formed at the early stages of oxidation may contribute to the observed differences. For reactions occurring on small particles, the rate of heterogeneous reactions is a linear function of both Sa and the reactive uptake coefficient (γ). To assess the importance of uncertainty in modeled Sa for the representation of heterogeneous reactions in models, we compare both the mean and the variance in Sa,mod/Sa,meas to that in γ(N2O5)mod/γ(N2O5)meas. We find that the uncertainty in model representation of heterogeneous reactions is primarily driven by uncertainty in the parametrization of reactive uptake coefficients, although the discrepancy between Sa,mod and Sa,meas is not insignificant. Our analysis suggests that model improvements to aerosol surface area concentrations, in addition to more accurate parameterizations of heterogeneous kinetics, will advance the representation of heterogeneous chemistry in regional models.

Published: June 2022

Abstract. The results of a destructive single-event effect susceptibility
radiation test of the PNI RM3100 magnetometer sensor, specifically the
MagI2C ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) on the sensor
board are presented. The sensor is a low-resource commercial off-the-shelf
(COTS) magneto-inductive magnetometer. The device was monitored for
destructive events and functional interruptions during exposure to a heavy
ion beam at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's 88′′ Cyclotron. The
RM3100 did not experience any destructive single-event effects when
irradiated to a total fluence of 1.4 × 107 cm−2 at an effective
linear energy transfer (LET) of 76.7 MeV cm2 mg−1 while operated at
nominal voltage (3.3 V) and elevated temperature (85 ∘C). When
these results are combined with previous total ionizing dose tests showing
no failures up to 150 kRad (Si), we conclude that the PNI RM3100 is extremely
radiation tolerant and can be used in a variety of space environments.
Origin of the Yellow River
Authors: Pan Baotian , Hu Zhenbo , Bridgland David
Published: June 2022

The Yellow River originating from the Tibetan Plateau, flow eastward through the Chinese Loess Plateau and North China Plain, thus offers a favorable setting where fluvial response to the tectonic uplift, climatic change, and landscape evolution can be evaluated individually. Its formation and evolution process has attracted worldwide attention from geoscience. A series of continuous fluviolacustrine deposits with a chronological framework of >8.3-3.7 Ma were accumulated on the northeastern Tibetan Plateau and the west front of the Luliang Mtns, and regarded as correlated sediments of a Planation Surface leveling the eastern Asian. The statistics of gravel fabric and lithology in these fluviolacustrine sediments reveals that lots of paleo-lakes fed by local streams dominated the Yellow River catchment in this period. Two sets of fluvial gravel layers with local provenance, covered by Red Clay, were distributed discretely on this Planation Surface, along the northern Jinshaan gorge. They were dated prior to 4.9 Ma and 3.7 Ma respectively, indicating a northward flowing stream, which is different from the current Yellow River. The dramatic surface uplift initiating prior to 3.7 Ma not only interrupted the fluviolacustrine sedimentation, but also leaded to uplift of this Planation Surface. The hypsographic relief was enlarged, resulting in drainage re-organization. Previous fluviolacustrine systems were pirated by the river in the southern Loess Plateau and the North China Plain, creating the main part of the middle and upper Yellow River during the period of 1.2-1.8 Ma. Subsequently, an episode of uplift initiating at 1.2 Ma forced the Yellow River to continuously excavate and extend into the interior Tibetan Plateau. The current drainage pattern of the Yellow River was probably fixed prior to ca.10 ka.

Abstract. Wind and windstorms cause severe damage to natural and human-made environments. Thus, wind-related risk assessment is vital for the preparation and mitigation of calamities. However, the cascade of events leading to damage depends on many factors that are environment-specific and the available methods to address wind-related damage often require sophisticated analysis and specialization. Fortunately, simple indices and thresholds are as effective as complex mechanistic models for many applications. Nonetheless, the multitude of indices and thresholds available requires a careful selection process according to the target environment. Here, we first provide a basic background on wind and storm formation and characteristics, followed by a comprehensive collection of both indices and thresholds that can be used to predict the occurrence and magnitude of wind and storm damage. We focused on five key environments: forests, urban, transport, agriculture, and wind-based energy production. For each environment we described indices and thresholds relating to physical properties such as topography and land cover but also to economic aspects (e.g. disruptions in transportation or energy production). In the face of increased climatic variability, the promotion of more effective analysis of wind and storm damage could reduce the impact on society and the environment.

Abstract. Atmospheric rivers (ARs) transport large amounts of moisture from the mid- to high-latitudes and they are a primary driver of the most extreme snowfall events on Antarctica. ARs also raise surface temperatures when they make landfall over Antarctica, leading to surface melting. In this study, we characterize the climatology and surface impacts of ARs on West Antarctica, focusing on the Amundsen Sea Embayment and Marie Byrd Land. First, we develop a climatology of ARs in this region, using an Antarctic-specific AR detection tool combined with MERRA-2 and ERA5 atmospheric reanalyses. We find that while ARs are infrequent, they cause intense precipitation in short periods of time and account for 11 % of the annual surface accumulation. They are driven by the coupling of a blocking high over the Antarctic Peninsula with a low--pressure system known as the Amundsen Sea Low. Next, we use observations from automatic weather stations on Thwaites Eastern Ice Shelf to examine a case study of 3 ARs that made landfall in rapid succession from February 2 to 8, known as an AR family event. We use snow height observations to force the firn model SNOWPACK to reconstruct accumulation and surface melting during the event, and compare these results with accumulation higher up on the glacier derived from surface height changes using interferometric reflectometry. While accumulation dominates the surface impacts of the event on Thwaites Eastern Ice Shelf (>100 kg m−2), we find small amounts of surface melt as well (<5 kg m−2). West Antarctica currently experiences minimal surface melting, most of which is absorbed by the firn, but future atmospheric warming could lead to more widespread surface melting in West Antarctica. Combined with a future increase in AR intensity or frequency, this could limit the ability of the firn layer to absorb melt water, which could harm ice shelf stability, and ultimately accelerate mass loss of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. The results presented here enable us to quantify the past impacts of ARs on West Antarctic surface mass balance and characterize their interannual variability and trends, enabling a better assessment of future AR-driven changes in the surface mass balance.
The stratosphere: dynamics and variability
Authors: Butchart Neal
Published: June 2022

Abstract. Large-scale, intra-seasonal to inter-annual variability of the stratosphere is reviewed. Much of the variability is dynamical and induced by waves emanating from the troposphere. It is largely characterised by fluctuations in the strength of the polar vortex in winter and a quasi-biennial oscillation in the equatorial winds. Existing theories for the variability are generally formulated in terms of wave mean flow interactions, with refinements due, in part, to teleconnections between the tropics and extratropics. Climate and seasonal forecast models are able to reproduce much of the observed polar stratospheric variability and are increasingly successful in the tropics too. Compared to the troposphere the models display longer predictability timescales for variations within the stratosphere. Despite containing just under 20 % of the atmosphere's mass the stratosphere's variability exerts a powerful downward influence on the troposphere that can affect surface extremes. The stratosphere is therefore a useful source of additional skill for surface predictions. However, a complete dynamical explanation for the downward coupling is yet to be established.

Published: June 2022

Cultural heritage works, which host hundreds of years of knowledge, are in danger of extinction due to various reasons over time. Therefore, it has become a necessity to carry out documentation work in order to transfer the cultural heritage to future generations. Many methods are used in the documentation of cultural heritage. The works, which were previously documented classically, have started to be documented in more detail and sensitively with the development of technology. Especially with digital cameras, the art of documenting with photography and laser scanning data has gained importance day by day. With the integration of digitalization and photography, three dimensions (3D) documentation studies have gained speed and various methods have been developed. The laser scanning method has started to be used in documentation as it has deficiencies as well as the advantages of documenting with photography. The laser scanning method provides a great advantage in terms of accuracy, time, and cost in documenting cultural heritage, as well as providing high-resolution data. The terrestrial laser scanning device, in this study, is aimed to document the historical tombstones digitally without any contact. In the study, the tombstone was scanned with a laser scanning device from different locations. 3D models were produced from laser scanning data and the historical tombstone was documented by visually presenting it.

Published: June 2022

Nganjuk Regency is one of the highest red onion producers in East Java, but its productivity is not followed by a commensurate productivity yet. One of the causes is the attack of plant-disturbing organisms and chemical pesticides which are often the most effective way. Adoption of technological innovations for planting Refugia plants is an alternative in overcoming problems. Several roles of actors are needed to communicate with each other regarding this matter. This study aims to: 1) Analyze the communication network of farmers adopting technological innovations; (2) Analyzing the effect of farmers' characteristics and farming on the communication network; (3) Analyzing the effect of farmer communication networks on the adoption of technological innovations. The method used is a sociogram to determine the distribution of information on farmer groups and related parties. To determine the effect of the characteristics of farmers and farming on communication networks and the effect of communication networks on the adoption of technological innovations using regression analysis. The results of the study show that there is a role in the communication network, namely the head of each farmer group as opinion leader, active and dominant farmers as bridges and farmers who have other main jobs as isolated. Characteristics of farmers and farming have a significant effect on the communication network, so that it has a positive impact on the dissemination of information. The communication network also has a significant effect on the adoption of technological innovations so that the process of using the adoption of refugia plant innovations on red onion plants can be carried out because of the openness of farmers to existing information

Published: June 2022

This research work is aimed at the Evaluation of sugar contents of Selected Coke Drinks. The study was motivated by the increasing global concern of reported cases of sugar-related ill health. Three different Coke drinks namely; RC, Pepsi and Coca-cola were tested to determine the amount of sugar present in the drinks. The selection of these three products was justified by the fact that they are the most commonly consumed coke drinks (amongst others), as reviewed. The soft drink bottles were purchased from “Everyday” supermarket in Owerri, Imo State; analysis was conducted on the samples at the New Concept Laboratory, Obinze Owerri. The parameters tested include pH, Total soluble sugar, Reducing sugar, Total reducing sugar, Sucrose, Glucose and Fructose. The results of the analysis showed that the pH of the three samples were 2.19, 2.21 and 2.27 for RC, Pepsi and Coca-Cola respectively. The Total Soluble Sugar was 8.50%, 10.20% and 7.20% for RC, Pepsi and Coca-cola products respectively. Also in that order, the Reducing sugar was gotten as 8.22%, 11.75%, and 10.18% respectively, while the Total reducing sugar was found to be 18.27%, 17.97% and 15.16% respectively. The sucrose content was 154.56% for RC, 148.53% for Pepsi and 125.06% for Coca-Cola. The glucose and fructose were 1.13%, 0.82%, 1.03% and 7.09%, 10.93% and 9.15% both for RC, Pepsi and Coca-Cola products respectively. Generally, RC was found to have the highest percentage of sugar content amongst the three samples examined. It is, thus, recommended that there should be prudent check in the rate of soft drink consumption, especially those that contain high sugar and phosphoric acids value (as are obtainable in our locality); also drinking plenty of water, instead of sugary drinks like soft drink, is better due to its high sugar and acidic contents. Keywords: Coke, Drinks, Evaluation, Sugar Content.
Sarah Cowper's "Character" of John Locke
Authors: Goldie Mark
Published: June 2022

Lady Sarah Cowper (1644-1720) is best known for her commonplace books, which preserve unique and variant versions of poems by Restoration “wits.” She also kept a diary, in which she recorded her readings and meditations. The diary contains an unnoticed encomiastic “Character” of John Locke, composed at his death. It is one of the earliest obituaries of him, but it was commonplaced from other sources. Her use of her sources exemplifies aspects of the manuscript circulation of texts and the ways in which the active selection and redaction of textual material reflected a reader’s own religious, political, and personal preoccupations. Cowper portrays Locke as a moral exemplar and Christian virtuoso, whose orthodoxy she defends, and whose latitudinarian and Whig commitments she shares.

The Making of the Philippine President: A Textual Analysis of Mythical Archetypes in the TV News Reports of the 2010 Presidential Elections
Authors: Sarmenta Severino
Published: June 2022

Journalists will dispute that they work with myths or archetypes in writing and producing the news yet there is evidence that these are used to frame stories so that they resonate with readers or viewers. This critical discourse analysis using Richardson’s (2007) framework for newspapers studied 278 candidate reports out of 644 election-related accounts on the 2010 Philippine presidential election in the news programs TV Patrol and 24 Oras from January to May 2010. The analyses identified the character portrayals of the candidates and were then matched with familiar archetype qualities identified by Lule (2001). Archetypes in the media are potentially powerful communication frames that could impact on the political literacy of the electorate, especially in a predominantly commercial broadcast environment where there is hardly airtime for lengthy discussion of public issues.
People’s War, People’s Press: History and Evolution of Ang Bayan (The People), the News Organ of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP)
Authors: Tangi Lucia
Published: June 2022

Due to the pivotal role of the press in revolutions, the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) released its official publication Ang Bayan (The People) just months after it was re-established on December 26,1968. CPP founding chairperson Jose Maria Sison used only a few typewriters and one mimeograph machine to write the first issue of Ang Bayan, published on May 1,1969. For almost half a century, Ang Bayan was the CPP’s propagandist, agitator, and organizer. It was instrumental to establish and to maintain party unity and to popularize Marxist-Leninist-Maoist ideals. It simultaneously provided alternative news and perspective, especially during the martial law years, and inspired the rise of more revolutionary publications. The advent of the digital age also prompted the CPP to wage its revolution online. By recruiting members from the information technology sector and providing computer literacy training, Ang Bayan was first accessed online in 1998 on the National Democratic Front (NDF) website. Ang Bayan established its own website in 1999.
Reactivating Filipino Youth Activism in the Age of Slacktivism
Authors: Lanuza Gerry
Published: June 2022

Radical youth movements today are viewed as a chimera of a bygone era inspired by a now-defunct ideology. Many youth scholars believe that the birth of Web 2.0 technology, together with the continued influence of/emphasis on state-sponsored civic education, has drastically reconfigured the youth subculture and the youth’s political engagement. This paper, though, argues that this reconfiguration is but a reflection of neoliberal capitalism still at work in our modern society. While conscious of the changing landscape of a youth culture that is now saturated by various forms of media, this paper, toward the end, reaffirms Jose Ma. Sison’s call for the Filipino youth to be the vanguards of social change.
Spectres Of New Media Technologies In The Public Sphere
Authors: Labiste Ma. Diosa
Published: June 2022

New media technologies are mechanisms of representation that reveal the relationship of technology and society. In the deconstructive politics of Jacques Derrida, the social and technological ontology of new media technologies produce spectres. Spectres introduce doubts and instability in dominant discourses and modes of representation in the public sphere; this becomes possible through iteration, which refers to the transformation of hegemonic authority through repetition of its fundamental terms of identification. The essay presents a critique of new media technologies in the context of the Philippines. It is inspired by the work of Derrida, in his deconstructive reading of Marx’s spectres, and Jürgen Habermas, whose theory of the public sphere offered an implicit appraisal of spectres. This examination of spectres will answer the question: what are the political possibilities of new media technologies in the public sphere?
In Other News: Negotiating a Shifting Notion of Newsworthiness Through Amateur Web Video
Authors: Canlas Daphne-Tatiana
Published: June 2022

This paper attempts to open the discussion on the changing notion of news among Filipino broadcast audiences and the broadcast media gatekeepers through the use of user-generated content. Several versions of singular events are allowed to be told, thus subverting the news media’s monopoly of the telling of events. This paper looks at some of the web videos that made the jump from sites like YouTube and Facebook, and assesses their newsworthiness according to those set by the mass media. Are audiences and producers influencing a change in the criteria of newsworthiness? Through a rhetorical analysis, this paper proposes a switch to the “little narratives” often regarded as novelty by corporate media, and argues for the quotidian that exist as story fragments; the private lives of individuals contribute to the conceptualization of news from the others’ perspective.
Media Assessment of Herbalife’s Crisis Response: An Approach to Explain Vietnam’s Media Transparency Level
Authors: Ly-le Tuong-Minh
Published: June 2022

Vietnam’s media credibility is not highly appreciated both nationally and internationally. Domestically, public trust in the media is deteriorating. Internationally, Vietnam ranked among the bottom countries worldwide on media transparency level. There is thus a strong need to better assess the current media transparency in Vietnam and regain reputation for the Vietnam media. Guided by the research question: What is the difference in transparency between leading and following media in Vietnam during Herbalife’s crisis?, the paper argues that Vietnamese media uphold the transparent practice, but different publications have different standards of transparency. This study found that during the Herbalife Vietnam’s (HVN’s) crisis, coverage from following media are less objective than those from leading media. It can also be inferred from the study that the media transparency level in following media is lower than that in leading media. The result indicates that Vietnam’s leading media are maintaining their standards of media practice and transparency, distinguishing themselves from the following cluster. As from 2003 to the present, no studies were done on media transparency in Vietnam. An updated study is needed to better assess the current transparency level.
Folklore and Insurgent Journalism of Isabelo de los Reyes
Authors: Labiste Ma. Diosa
Published: June 2022

Modern-day journalism has associated folklore with the fictive and mythic. Its deployment in journalistic narratives or human interest pieces generally aims to bring out local color or quaintness. In his long journalistic career, Isabelo de los Reyes’s retrieval of folklore for publication in community newspapers performed a similar function of engaging the reader but also exposed political myths to undermine colonial regimes of Spain and the United States. De los Reyes’s treatment of folklore was not only to catalogue popular knowledge but also to ground such knowledge on conditions of domination. Folklore, as a “conception of the world” is systematized and inflected with reflections upon a reality. Thus, the publication of folklore in newspapers allows the creation of common body of knowledge that, according to Gramsci, “offers to a people the elements for a deeper knowledge of (themselves)” (Gramsci, 1992, p.187). The folklore project of de los Reyes inaugurates a tradition in insurgent journalism. Folklore, as common stories of the lesser heard, performs the dual function of acculturation and subversion. As in de los Reyes’s time, journalism today could include genres adapted to new and critical function that could open up new flanks of expressions and protests.

تقسم العقود في الفقه الإسلامي عدة تقسيمات باعتبار مشروعيتها، أو صحتها، أو تسميتها، أو لزومها، أو تبادل الحقوق فيها، إلى غيرها من التقسيمات. وبخصوص معيار تبادل الحقوق تصنف إلى صنفين: عقود معاوضات وعقود تبرعات. ويضيف بعض الفقهاء صنفا ثالثا يسمونه: عقود تحوي معنى التبرع ابتداء، والمعاوضة انتهاء. وبالتأمل في الموضوع، بدا لنا اقتراح صنف ثالث متميز قائم الذات تحت اسم: عقود المعاونات، يحمل بعض خصائص عقود المعاوضات وبعض خصائص عقود التبرعات، بالإضافة إلى خصائصه الذاتية. ويرجع هذا الاقتراح من جهة لتعدد التكييف الفقهي لمعاملات وعقود مستجدة. وما نتج عنه من إرباك عموم المسلمين والدارسين والمفتين والمهتمين من غير المسلمين، ومن جهة ثانية لانتشار العقود والمعاملات التعاونية في هذا العصر، في مجالات: التسوق والصحة والسكن والتأمين والفلاحة والصناعة وتداول الأموال (جمعيات الموظفين وتسمى في المغرب: دَارَتْ واشتققتُ لها اسم: التَّدَاوُرُ) وغيرها. فلاح لنا أن "اقتراح عقود المعاونات" سيسهم في الحد من هذا الاضطراب، والتأصيل لعقود كامنة في الفقه، وجرى بها عمل المسلمين منذ المجتمع الإسلامي الأول إلى يومنا هذا، مع إقرار الرسول ﷺ  لبعض صورها كالنهد والدية على العاقلة، وإقرار الفقهاء عبر التاريخ للعديد منها تحت مسميات وتكييفات متعددة: كالوقف، وهبة الثواب، والنهد، والتبرع.. أو حتى بدون تكييف أو تسمية. كما أن القرآن الكريم والسنة النبوية، واجتهادات الفقهاء حافلة بالحض على التعاون وصوره المختلفة، مما يسهل ويدعو لتأصيل عقود المعاونات، باعتبار التعاون أحد أحكام الشريعة ومقاصدها. ومع ذلك لم يتم تأصيل ولا إدراج لعقود المعاونات في الفقه، لكن عددا من العلماء قديما وحديثا اهتموا بالموضوع بشكل عارض، رغم أنهم لم يفردوه بكتاب أو بحث خاص به. ولما كان الأصل في العقود والمعاملات الإباحة، فإن المجتمع المسلم يصنعها ويبتكرها وفقا لحاجته ومصلحته، ودور الفقيه أن يحكم عليها وفق ضوابط شرعية بالإبطال أو التصحيح أو التعديل. من أجل ذلك استخرت الله لجمع شتات الموضوع في بحث مفرد، مع تأصيل وتركيب جديد لعقود المعاونات، خصوصا أن تركيب العقود ليس جديدا ولا طارئا على الفقه الإسلامي، كما أن أنواع التركيب وحالاته التي لا يترتب عليها محرم: يكون على أصل الإباحة في المعاملات المالية.
Making Housing Affordable Through Solar Energy: A Proposal for Malaysia

Globally, housing affordability is becoming an increasing concern, particularly to the low and middle-income group. Housing prices have been steadily growing over the years, thereby make it even more burdensome, particularly for fresh graduates and low-income earners (B40), to own a home. The constant price increase is mainly due to inflation in the property sector brought about by the very nature of the modern monetary system, particularly the fractional reserve banking and compound interest charges, leading to housing and property bubbles. Accordingly, governments have generally failed in successfully solving the housing problem. In this regard, this paper provides an affordable housing solution through solar energy harvesting combined with Islamic financing provisions for the case of Malaysia. In our proposed model, housing can be provided in a very affordable manner regardless of the credit-worthiness of buyers with the possibility of free-energy at the end of the tenure.
بين القرآن والشعر- استنكار واستثمار
Authors: الخطيب أحمد سعد
Published: June 2022

يحكي هذا البحث قصة الشعر مع القرآن الكريم، وبيان موقف القرآن منه استنكارا لرديئه الذي لا يتفق وأخلاق الإسلام، واستثمارا لجيده الصادق الذي حاز إعجاب الرسول ﷺ فآثر سماعه من قائليه، أو ممن يرويه عنهم. كما يتناول البحث ما حيك حول القرآن من دعوى تأثره بالشعر؛ استنادا إلى ما في بعض عباراته القصيرة من أوزانه، كما يتناول أيضا ما حيك حول النبي ﷺ من زعم أنه كان يقول الشعر، رغم نفي القرآن عنه ذلك. ويتبنى البحث الجواب عن هذه الأسئلة وغيرها، مقتفيا أسلوب التوجيه المقنع وطريقة الحوار الموضوعي في كل مسألة تحتاج إلى رد ودفع، وهو المنهج نفسه الذي سلكه البحث في رد زعم تأثر القرآن بشعر أمية بن أبي الصلت، كما ينبه البحث على قيمة الشعر الأصيل الجامع لشروط الاحتجاج التي نص عليها العلماء، ودوره المستثمر في فهم معاني القرآن الكريم، وفي الدلالة على إعجازه. وقد سلك البحث مناهج علمية، هي: المنهج التاريخي، والمنهج الاستنباطي، والمنهج النقدي.

Charakter prawny odpowiedzialności członków zarządu spółki z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością z tytułu naruszenia art. 299 k.s.h.
Authors: Trybek Kamil
Published: June 2022

W literaturze przedmiotu występują istotne problemy z ustaleniem charakteru prawnego odpowiedzialności członków zarządu w sytuacji, gdy egzekucja przeciwko spółce okaże się bezskuteczna. Zarówno w doktrynie, jak i w orzecznictwie pojawia się w tej kwestii kilka koncepcji, przy czym najczęściej powtarzają się dwie. Pierwsza wskazuje na charakter odszkodowawczy, natomiast druga – na charakter gwarancyjny, względnie quasi-gwarancyjny1 . Podkreślić należy, że to koncepcja, która wskazuje na odszkodowawczy charakter odpowiedzialności z art. 299 k.s.h. znalazła na przestrzeni ostatnich lat szersze uznanie w orzecznictwie. Niniejsza publikacja ma na celu analizę charakteru prawnego odpowiedzialności członków zarządu spółki z o.o. z tytułu naruszenia art. 299 k.s.h.
Z problematyki odroczenia wydania wyroku w sprawach karnych
Authors: Kozioł Tomasz
Published: June 2022

This paper concerns the issues relating to adjourned delivery of judgment in criminal cases, which are regulated in Article 411 of the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure. The author presents the pragmatic aspects of this procedure, discusses the underlying rationale and timeframe for its application, as well as the procedural consequences if the above are violated. In this regard, the author questions the concept of considering a violation of Article 411 of the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure as a quasi-absolute ground for an appeal resulting in the necessity of reversing the judgment.
Przepadek pojazdu mechanicznego. Glosa do wyroku SN z 3 października 2019 r., II KK 91/19
Authors: Pawlik Renata
Published: June 2022

Glosowane orzeczenie dotyczy problemu, który pojawił się w praktyce wymiaru sprawiedliwości jakiś czas temu i, jak mogłoby się wydawać, znalazł już swoje rozstrzygniecie w uchwale składu siedmiu sędziów SN z 30.10.2008 r. (I KZP 20/08), gdzie przyjęto, że pojazd mechaniczny stanowi przedmiot czynności wykonawczej przestępstwa określonego w art. 178a § 1 k.k., a więc nie należy do kategorii przedmiotów, które służą lub są przeznaczone, w rozumieniu art. 44 § 2 k.k., do popełnienia tego przestępstwa. Zapatrywanie to podzielone zostało również w późniejszych orzeczeniach SN. Przywołana wyżej uchwała była szeroko komentowana, zgłoszono wiele argumentów różnej natury, przemawiających zarówno za przyjęciem tezy reprezentowanej przez Sąd Najwyższy, jak i sprzeciwiających się wyrażonemu w niej poglądowi. W niniejszej glosie podjęto próbę omówienia wyroku SN z 3.10.2019 r. w sprawie II KK 91/19, w którym SN podzielił pogląd wyrażony w przywołanej uchwale w sprawie I KZP 20/08 z perspektywy aktualnie obowiązującego i projektowanego stanu prawnego, poglądów doktryny, a także uwzględniając wątki prawnoporównawcze.
以深度學習模式估測控制之駕駛輔助系統的研發
Authors: 白家納 白家納 , Pachara Opattrakarnkul 黃崇能
Published: June 2022

Adaptive cruise control (ACC) systems are designed to provide longitudinal assistance to enhance safety and driving comfort by adjusting vehicle velocity to maintain a safe distance between the host vehicle and the preceding vehicle. Generally, using model predictive control (MPC) in ACC systems provides high responsiveness and lower discomfort by solving real-time constrained optimization problems but results in computational load. This paper presents an architecture of deep learning based on model predictive control in ACC systems to avoid real-time optimization problems required by MPC, which in turn, reduces computational load. The learning dataset is acquired from the simulation data of the input/output of the MPC controller. We designed the proposed deep learning controller using long short-term memory networks (LSTMs) and simulated it in MATLAB/Simulink using the vehicle’s characteristics from the advanced vehicle simulator (ADVISOR). Finally, the safety and driving comfort are compared with the PID-based control to demonstrate the performance of the proposed deep-learning architecture.
