In-pipe Hydropower Vertical Axis Parallel Turbine Prototype
Authors: Ahmad Aima Mariaty , Julai Sabariah , Jauhari Iswadi
Published: December 2022

A unique in-pipe hydropower prototype with a water separation feature, designated as P40 is developed in this research. Fabricated mainly using steel-based materials, it has two power generation (PG) channels with nozzles and turbines. Water flows into the PG channels and is controlled by inlet and outlet valves. From the experiment, it showed that all valves in P40 functioned well as it prevented water from flowing into the PG channels. P40 works effectively as a device that allows most water to flow uninterrupted. With a valve that works well, this system allows maintenance to be done without having to disrupt the flow of water to the consumer. It is also expected to generate more power compared to the previous studies.

Authors: Ayob Aida Normardiana , Hassan Che Rosmani Che , Hamid Mahar Diana
Published: December 2022

Occupational safety is vital and should be prioritised in the public sector's critical performance agenda. Strong safety culture is able to address safety issues. In researching safety culture measures, education sectors such as technical and vocational education and training (TVET) remain ambiguous. This paper describes the work undertaken to develop and evaluate the components of a preliminary research framework for assessing the maturity of safety culture in TVET institutions, i.e., polytechnics, by adapting the existing safety culture maturity (SCM) model with local guidelines documents to the studied organisation. Experts consented to participate in this study and validated the proposed elements under four primary constructs using the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM). The proposed elements must adhere to three FDM principles to be retained: 1) Threshold value (d) ≤ 0.2, 2) Expert Consensus Percentage > 75.0% and 3) Fuzzy score (A) value of α - cut = > 0.5. The construct's threshold (d) value is also accepted with the value (d) 0.2 or less. The selected elements are then used to develop the subsequent phase's framework content. The identified elements are used as components of a preliminary research framework and as an initial point for the established SCM measurement framework for the Polytechnic.

Published: December 2022

The improper disposal of plastic waste and low recycling rate have caused various environmental issues around the world. Therefore, microwave metal pyrolysis approach is proposed to efficiently convert plastic waste into liquid fuel, wax and gaseous by-products. This study aims to investigate the effect of different parameters such as microwave power and mass of metal on the product formation of the pyrolysis of polypropylene (PP). The experimental study was conducted in a closed glass reactor with a capacity of 500 ml, in a modified 2.45 GHz microwave, at a pressure of 1 atm and nitrogen is flowed at 0.5 L/min. The plastic was mixed with iron (Fe) powder and pyrolysed for 30 min. The produced pyrolysis vapor was condensed in a two-stage condenser where the oil formed was subsequently collected in a flask. The increase in microwave power from 500 to 700 W increased the oil yield of PP with iron powder from 22.4 to 54.5 wt.% and decreased the wax yield from 40.2% to zero. The increase in mass of iron powder from 5 to 10 g improved the oil yield from 20.0 to 54.5 wt.%, while the oil yield slightly decreased to 50.1 wt.% at 15 g. The pyrolysis oil formed has high calorific value of 45-46 MJ/kg comparable with the commercial fuel, thus the fuel can be blended with pure diesel to reduce the portion of fossil fuel in diesel combustion engine application.

Published: December 2022

Energy forecasting is affected by various factors like seasonality, abrupt weather changes, system malfunctions, and lack of efficient resource management. Hence, towards meeting the energy demand of consumers, there is a need to generate energy efficiently which can be from renewable or nonrenewable sources like coal, wind, solar etc. This requires the need of machine learning and deep learning technique to forecast the generation of energy efficiently and economically. This work focuses on solving the issue related to energy generation forecasting by analyzing energy generation from various fuel sources over the course of 8 years by applying various techniques such as Bi-LSTM, Nbeats, ETS, Xgboost and MLP. From the performance analysis for four seasons, it has been concluded that Bi-LSTM performed the best overall 4 seasons with an average SMAPE of 20.412. This would really benefit utility companies in forecasting the fuel generation effectively in meeting the consumer demand.

Managing Municipal Solid Waste Issues; Sources, Composition, Disposal, Recycling, and Volarization, Chililabombwe District, Zambia
Authors: Sakanyi Gift
Published: December 2022

Solid waste continues to pose important challenges to our environment on a daily basis. Insufficient solid waste management systems and equipment have contributed to the alteration to the ecosystems, including water, air, and soil pollution that infringes on the health of the general public that is associated with health ailments like cholera and other food and water borne diseases. Chililabombwe district’s face has continued to be dented with the unkempt environment with littered solid waste that has become a stinging and widespread challenge, especially in the urban areas of the district. Solid waste (SW) collection and working disposal systems are the major problems of the urban environment in most developing countries worldwide. MSW management solutions are financially dependable for the technical viable, socially inclement, and legally accepted. Solid waste management remained the biggest challenge that all the local authorities in Zambia and many developing countries in Africa. Commercialization or valorization of organic food waste was one of the important research areas that could combat the increased solid waste in the environmental causing environmental degradation. The objective of this study was to address matters that would respond positively to the waste management crisis in the district. As waste continues to be accumulated, with its high generation, more technologies are sought in the area of treatment and exploitation of organic and municipal waste through composting and anaerobic digestion in the management of waste. The lack of technologies and machinery has equally downplayed the essence of waste management in the Chililabombwe district.

Published: December 2022

The HIV test and treat strategy removes many barriers that interrupt HIV intervention. The Test and Treat campaign is an important strategy such that it promotes the general public access various promotive, preventive and treatment services. The aim of the study was to determine the acceptability of HIV Testing and Treatment and factors that influence acceptance among women and men seeking health care at Monze Mission Hospital. A cross-sectional study design was used at Monze Mission Hospital in Monze district. The findings from 171 patients showed that 72% (12) participants knew the meaning of HIV test and treat policy compared to 28% (48) that seemed not to know. The general distribution of HIV test acceptability among participants shows that the majority of the participants in this study had accepted to be tested for their HIV status. The study shows that 87% of the study participants accepted to be tested for HIV. The study shows that acceptability for HIV test and treat as per UNAIDS 2020 target i.e achieving 90/90/90 has not been achieved. This could be due to less sensitization as 28% of participants never knew the meaning of the policy. Other factors could be lacking awareness, 31% of the participants were not aware of care, treatment, and support services availability for HIV positive people at the hospital. To achieve acceptability of HIV test and treatment, we need to consider educational programs to strengthen or increase sensitization on the meaning and benefits of the program. Keywords: Acceptability to HIV; test; treat; men and women.

Aortic stenting for aortic isthmus stenosis caused by the patent ductus arteriosus occluder: a case report
Authors: Tarasov R.S. , Kolesnikov A.Yu. , Vereshchagin I.E.
Published: December 2022

We present a case report of stenting the aortic isthmus to manage a rare complication – stenosis caused by the patent ductus arteriosus occlude previously implanted to a child at the age of 7 months. After 7 years the patient was re-admitted to the cardiology hospital with the signs and symptoms of the aortic coarctation. The echocardiography revealed a peak pressure gradient of 40 mm Hg in the area of the aortic isthmus. The pressure gradient between the upper and lower extremities was 25-30 mm Hg. At the age of 8 the compromised blood flow in the aorta was completely resolved by stenting the aortic isthmus with covering of the implanted occluder. Andrastent XL (Andramed GmbH, Reutlingen, Germany) stent was implanted. Characteristics of this stent allow expanding it up to 14 mm. The pressure gradient in the area of the aortic isthmus was completely eliminated after the procedure. The effectiveness of the intervention was confirmed after 7 months with echocardiography. In conclusion, the aortic stenting using devices with the potential for further expansion as the child grows is justified due to its effectiveness, minimal invasiveness, and radical nature.

Otwarty patriotyzm jako konsekwencja dynamicznej religii
Authors: Palaver Wolfgang
Published: December 2022

Mimo pojawienia się po II wojnie światowej światopoglądu kosmopolitycznego, problem budowania wspólnoty i tożsamości oraz żywotności państwa narodowego pozostał aktualny. W artykule autor zastanawia się nad rolą religii w budowaniu otwartego patriotyzmu, czyli takiego, który jest pozbawiony ograniczeń związanych z poglądami nacjonalistycznymi. Sięgając m.in. do Henriego Bergsona, rozróżnia religię statyczną i dynamiczną, stwierdzając za tym filozofem, że punkt kulminacyjny religii dynamicznej uwidacznia się w Ewangelii, a zwłaszcza w Kazaniu na Górze. Zwolenników tego podejścia łatwo także znaleźć poza religią chrześcijańską (np. Buber, Gandhi czy muzułmanin Iqbal). Rozróżnienie Bergsona miało wpływ na zapoczątkowanie m.in. przez Jacquesa Maritaina tzw. bratnich nowoczesnych poglądów w katolicyzmie, które obecnie mają dosyć znaczący wpływ na nauki Kościoła, również w kontekście rozróżniania między nacjonalizmem a patriotyzmem. Patriotyzm otwarty, w przeciwieństwie do swojej nacjonalistycznej odmiany, nie wyklucza wewnątrzspołecznego pluralizmu ani też nie narzuca jedności etnicznej lub religijnej. Bliski był on m.in. Schumanowi, Janowi Pawłowi II czy Franciszkowi. Autor zauważa, że szukanie łączności między lokalnością a globalną solidarnością jest zadaniem społeczności religijnych we współczesnym świecie.
Religia a polityka – dramat w sanktuarium Analiza postrzegania wpływu chrześcijaństwa na porządek polityczny na przykładzie Bezsilnego Boga Marka Lilli i współczesnych poszukiwań duchowości
Authors: Szymborska Maria
Published: December 2022

Artykuł wpisuje się w szeroką debatę na temat relacji religii i polityki. Przedstawia powstające wśród współczesnych intelektualistów napięcie, gdy z jednej strony poszukują, dla dobra społeczeństwa, jakiejś formy duchowości, a z drugiej – obawiają się nadania religii zbyt dużego wpływu na życie publiczne. Na przykładzie Bezsilnego Boga Marka Lilli, przedstawiono negatywne konsekwencje wynikające z tendencji do mylenia w tych refleksjach religii z ideologią. Zwrócono uwagę, że lokowanie konfliktu (między religią a polityką) w intelektualnych debatach pomija poziom ludzkich sumień, który zdaje się prawdziwym polem dramatu. W artykule nawiązano do twórczości m.in. Daniela Bella, Marka Lilli, Jacques’a Maritaina, Jana Pawła II, Piotra Mazurkiewicza, Rogera Scrutona i Macieja Zięby.
O duchowym przywództwie politycznym. Polityka duchowa jako droga dla rozwoju przyszłej Europy
Authors: Korab-Karpowicz W. Julian
Published: December 2022

Duchowe przywództwo polityczne odnosi się do sztuki rządzenia państwem, która uwzględnia pełny i wszechstronny rozwój osobowy człowieka, umożliwia obywatelom samorealizację i w ten sposób zaspakaja ludzkie dążenie do osiągnięcia doskonałości moralnej i intelektualnej, osiągającej swój najwyższy stopień rozwoju w świętości jako łączności z doskonałością Boga. Jego celem jest szczęśliwe społeczeństwo, w którym każdy ma możliwość samorealizacji, a jednocześnie szanuje samorealizację innych. Wspiera harmonię społeczną, która wynika ze współdziałania między różnymi grupami w obrębie społeczeństwa oraz jest alternatywą dla dzisiejszej dysharmonii będącej pokłosiem toczącego się konfliktu politycznego. Z wartości duchowego przywództwa politycznego wyłania się postulat praktyczny: przywódcy Unii Europejskiej oraz indywidualnych państw europejskich powinni porzucić modernistyczny trend to sekularyzacji i uczestniczyć w rozwoju cywilizacji chrześcijańskiej, jednoczącej ludzkość całego świata na poziomie etycznym, oraz mieć zawsze na uwadze najwyższe wartości uniwersalne i ostateczny cel życia ludzkiego. Nadszedł czas, aby odbudować w Europie siłę chrześcijaństwa oraz budować w naszych państwach promieniującą na inne państwa i kontynenty harmonię społeczną.
Polityczny wymiar braterstwa. Perspektywa Fratelli tutti na tle tradycji katolickiej
Authors: Gierycz Michał
Published: December 2022

Artykuł analizuje polityczny wymiar kategorii braterstwa w encyklice Ojca Świętego Franciszka Fratelli tutti. W pierwszej części autor rekapituluje istotę braterstwa przedstawioną w encyklice. W drugiej – odsłania znaczenie politycznego wymiaru proponowanego przez Papieża rozumienia braterstwa. Trzecia część poświęcona jest ukazaniu wyzwań, jakie rodzą się w kontekście proponowanego ujęcia braterstwa w perspektywie nauki społecznej Kościoła. W ostatniej, czwartej części, przedyskutowane zostaje możliwe źródło tych wyzwań, poprzez ukazanie napięcia między proponowanym przez Fratelli tutti rozumieniem braterstwa a specyficznym dla katolickiej tradycji pojmowaniem braterstwa.
The state’s attitude towards religious communities in a health crisis: pursuing toward new interpretative approaches?
Authors: Madera Adelaide
Published: December 2022

Jako swego rodzaju przełom wybuch COVID-19 w 2020 r. głęboko zmienił nasze zwykłe wyobrażenie o życiu społecznym. Taki bezprecedensowy stan zagrożenia zdrowia stanowi również poważne wyzwanie w zakresie podstawowych praw i wolności, będąc testem radzenia sobie w skrajnych warunkach dla nowoczesnych konstytucyjnych systemów pluralistycznych. Ożywił obawy dotyczące „wyjątkowej” roli religii w postsekularnych społeczeństwach demokratycznych, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem wolności religijnej. Celem tego artykułu jest zbadanie, poprzez analizę porównawczą, implikacji ery pandemii jako okazji do refleksji nad potrzebą ponownego przyjrzenia się roli organizacji religijnych w ramach sieci aktorów społecznych. Artykuł pokazuje, że współpraca między aktorami politycznymi i wspólnotami wyznaniowymi może przyczynić się do wdrożenia nowych sposobów wspólnego życia, w których wszyscy aktorzy społeczni promują wspólne zaangażowanie na rzecz wspólnych celów z myślą o budowaniu bardziej zrównoważonej przyszłości.
Irańscy sunniccy muzułmanie wobec wyborów prezydenckich 2021: zmiana paradygmatu czy polityczny kompromis?
Authors: Doroh Hessam Habibi
Published: December 2022

W 2018 roku w Iranie doszło do serii powstań ludowych, przy czym szczególnie widoczne było niezadowolenie wśród mniejszości sunnickiej na peryferiach Iranu. W miarę zbliżania się wyborów prezydenckich w 2021 r., gdy preferowani kandydaci irańskich sunnitów zostali zdyskwalifikowani przez państwo, wzmogło się ryzyko przemocy sunnickiej. Jednak ich lojalność polityczna uległa zmianie, co doprowadziło do powszechnego poparcia dla Ebrahima Raisiego, szyickiego dogmatycznego duchownego. Niniejszy artykuł analizuje rolę sunnitów w tych wyborach, pokazując, w jaki sposób aktorzy i instytucje religijne mobilizowały czynniki w kampanii politycznej. W trakcie kampanii sunnickie elity skupiały się wyłącznie na alokacji władzy w określonych elitarnych grupach, ignorując żądania zwykłych sunnitów, by zaradzić nierównościom. Cały proces ilustruje elastyczność podejmowania decyzji politycznych przez irańskich sunnitów i ich zdolność do osiągania porozumień. W związku z tym dochodzę do wniosku, że zmiana lojalności sunnitów może być lepiej zrozumiana jako polityczny kompromis niż jako epokowa zmiana paradygmatu.
„My we Francji wiemy, jaką rolę spełnia Kościół w życiu tego drogiego narodu i co uczynił dla jego wielkości”
Authors: Kłakus Michał
Published: December 2022

Najważniejszym wydarzeniem w Polsce w 1967 r. była wizyta Charles’a de Gaulle’a. Jeden z punktów spornych dotyczył ewentualnego spotkania ze Stefanem Wyszyńskim. Władze komunistyczne kategorycznie sprzeciwiały się zorganizowaniu takiej rozmowy, obawiając się wzrostu prestiżu Prymasa Polski na arenie międzynarodowej oraz że konflikt Kościół – władza PRL zostanie przeniesiony na arenę międzynarodową. Dla de Gaulle’a wizyta w Polsce miała być spotkaniem z narodem, którego nieodłączną i ważną część stanowił Kościół. W czasie przygotowań do wizyty dyplomaci francuscy nie docenili skuteczności działań polskiego wywiadu dyplomatycznego. Ostatecznie do spotkania miedzy de Gaulle’em i Wyszyńskim nie doszło.
Entre Cristo, Orfeo y Nietzsche una lectura de El perfume, de Süskind
Authors: Carou Mariano
Published: December 2022

La novela El Perfume, de Süskind, que narra los crímenes llevados a cabo por un perfumista, a primera vista parece ser simplemente una novela policial ambientada en el siglo XVIII. Una lectura más atenta nos permite comprobar que es un texto atravesado por profundas preocupaciones religiosas. Grenouille, el personaje principal, confronta permanentemente con el Dios cristiano a fin de afirmarse a sí mismo. A lo largo de la novela, además del cristianismo, se evidencia un diálogo con el orfismo y el pensamiento de Nietzsche en torno de lo sagrado, en un marcado sincretismo. De esta manera, este texto, al igual que otros similares, propone nuevos caminos de reflexión para la Teología y los estudios de la religión. El abordaje llevado a cabo es interdisciplinario, ya que contempla la Teopoética, la Filosofía de la Religión y la crítica literaria.

Resumo

A psicologia do esporte possui um campo de atuação recente, sua função é   intervir no praticante desportivo, visando o equilíbrio mental, físico e melhor qualidade no desempenho e rendimento. Dito isso, o presente estudo se propõe a analisar através de uma revisão de literatura o papel do psicólogo nas categorias de base. Por definição, a categoria de base é descrita como uma subdivisão pertencente a um grupo esportivo, com atletas de faixa etária de 11 a 20 anos. De acordo com os artigos encontrados, foi possível identificar a importância da psicologia do esporte na vida dos atletas, não apenas nos treinos e jogos, mas em todo o seu âmbito social, como em suas emoções e na relação entre família e esporte, favorecendo o bem-estar do atleta e o desempenho da equipe. A Terapia Cognitivo-Comportamental foi apontada como uma abordagem comumente usada pelos profissionais. No entanto, ressalta-se a lacuna na literatura nacional em relação à produção acadêmica sobre esse assunto na área da Psicologia. Também se destaca a produção em outras disciplinas, principalmente nos estudos da Educação Física e na língua inglesa, o que indica o caráter interdisciplinar do problema e seu interesse de estudos em outros países. Os dados reforçam a carência de estudos sobre o tema e a importância de aprofundamento nessa temática.

O consumo abusivo de drogas na adolescência tem sido uma questão complexa para a sociedade, sendo a escola um local estratégico para a prevenção. No entanto, ainda há muitas incertezas sobre o que pode ser feito em relação às ações preventivas aplicadas pelos educadores. Sabe-se que a adolescência é um período de muitas transformações decorrentes da transição entre a infância e a vida adulta. Dito isso, o presente estudo se propõe a analisar através de uma revisão de literatura a importância do papel da escola como dispositivo de prevenção ao uso abusivo de drogas entre adolescentes, trazendo reflexões sobre possibilidades de ações mais efetivas. A busca por uma identidade que o defina e a identificação com os pares são comuns entre os jovens que, em muitos casos, afastam-se dos familiares na procura por outros modelos de identificação. Através do levantamento bibliográfico justifica-se os números alarmantes que indicam o crescente uso de drogas entre jovens, fazendo com que políticas públicas de prevenção sejam cada vez mais urgentes e necessárias de forma permanente nas escolas entre essa população.

Abstract

Abusive drug use in adolescence has been a complex issue for society, and the school is a strategic place for prevention. However, there are still many uncertainties about what can be done in relation to preventive actions applied by educators. It is known that adolescence is a period of many changes resulting from the transition between childhood and adulthood. That said, the present study proposes to analyze through a literature review the importance of the school's role as a device to prevent drug abuse among adolescents, bringing reflections on possibilities for more effective actions. The search for an identity that defines them and identification with peers are common among young people who, in many cases, distance themselves from family members in the search for other identification models. Through the bibliographic survey, the alarming numbers that indicate the growing use of drugs among young people are justified, making public prevention policies increasingly urgent and necessary in a permanent way in schools among this population.
