High-resolution projections of ambient heat for major European cities using different heat metrics
Authors: Schwingshackl Clemens , Daloz Anne Sophie , Iles Carley , Aunan Kristin , Sillmann Jana
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Heat stress in cities is projected to strongly increase due to climate change. The associated health risks will be exacerbated by the high population density in cities and the urban heat island effect. However, impacts are still uncertain, which is among other factors due to the existence of multiple metrics for quantifying ambient heat and the typically rather coarse spatial resolution of climate models. Here we investigate projections of ambient heat for 36 major European cities based on a recently produced ensemble of regional climate model simulations for Europe (EURO-CORDEX) at 0.11° spatial resolution (~12.5 km). The 0.11° EURO-CORDEX ensemble provides the best spatial resolution currently available from an ensemble of climate model projections for the whole of Europe and makes it possible to analyse the risk of temperature extremes and heatwaves at the city-level. We focus on three temperature-based heat metrics – yearly maximum temperature, number of days with temperatures exceeding 30 °C, and Heat Wave Magnitude Index daily (HWMId) – to analyse projections of ambient heat at 3 °C warming in Europe compared to 1981–2010 based on climate data from the EURO-CORDEX ensemble. The results show that southern European cities will be most affected by high levels of ambient heat, but depending on the considered metric, cities in central, eastern, and northern Europe may also experience substantial increases in ambient heat. In several cities, projections of ambient heat vary considerably across the three heat metrics, indicating that estimates based on a single metric might underestimate the potential for adverse health effects due to heat stress. Nighttime ambient heat, quantified based on daily minimum temperatures, shows similar spatial patterns as daytime conditions, albeit with substantially higher HWMId values. The identified spatial patterns of ambient heat are generally consistent with results from global Earth system models, though with substantial differences for individual cities. Our results emphasise the value of high-resolution climate model simulations for analysing climate extremes at the city-level. At the same time, they highlight that improving the currently rather simple representations of urban areas in climate models would make their simulations even more valuable for planning adaptation measures in cities. Further, our results stress that using complementary metrics for projections of ambient heat gives important insights into the risk of future heat stress that might otherwise be missed.
Numerical model for noise reduction of small vertical-axis wind turbines
Authors: Wang Wen-Yu , Ferng Yuh-Ming
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Wind turbines are a promising solution for sustainable energy, but their noise emissions present a challenge to public acceptance. Numerous blade designs have been aimed at reducing noise but often come with a decrease in wind turbine aerodynamic efficiency. In this study, the acoustic power and torque of a 5 kW vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) were simulated by using different mesh sizes and turbulence models. The simulated torque and noise of the turbine have significant sensitivity to the mesh size, so suitable mesh sizes were determined for the near-wall and rotating regions that can be used as a design reference for future turbines with similar operating conditions. The selection of the turbulence model was found to affect the predicted torque by about 10 % and the predicted tip noise by about 2 dB. The selected mesh size and turbulence model were then applied to simulating the effectiveness of three common noise mitigation techniques: a mask, deflector, and wall roughness. The results showed that deflectors are suitable for noise reduction of small VAWTs. This paper provides valuable information on simulating noise propagation from small VAWTs and the optimal noise reduction techniques.

When the Singapore International Mediation Centre (SIMC) was invited to put together a series of papers on the mediation scene across Asia, we saw it as an opportunity to present to a global readership, a panoramic snapshot of the state of mediation in Asia. Working with mediation practitioners as opposed to academic scholars on a project of this nature poses its own unique characteristics and challenges. Professionals in the academic field are accustomed to living under the yoke of a “publish or perish” mandate. Industry practitioners are under no such pressure. While some suggestions were given to the mediation practitioners on the topics that they might consider covering in their contributions to this edition of the Journal, they each had their own perception of what the most essential aspects of mediation that they should focus on were in relation to their respective jurisdictions. Nevertheless, despite these challenges, through sheer dogged persistence and the good-spirited endeavour on the part of all the contributing practitioners, we managed to cobble together this series of papers.

Authors: Moreno Padilla María Isabel
Published: July 2023

El siguiente trabajo tiene como objetivo principal analizar los patrones de regularidad, los cambios estilísticos y los niveles de significación social de la iconografía vascular ibérica. Centrando nuestra atención en las tumbas de fundación de las necrópolis clientelares iberas del Guadiana Menor, los resultados muestran diferentes pautas de apropiación de la identidad aristocrática, generando discursos únicos en el imaginario colectivo. En este momento, fechado en la segunda mitad del siglo V a.n.e., los mecanismos de legitimación aristocrática se encuentran caracterizados por un lenguaje multivariante en el que se suceden no sólo códigos y soportes de otros ámbitos cronológicos o culturales, como el orientalizante o el ático; sino que además convergen, en el soporte cerámico ibérico caracterizado por el repintado de sus superficies, una variabilidad de mitemas que, de influencia exógena o innovación local, generan una compleja iconografía al servicio de los códigos aristocráticos de prestigio y representación social.

Published: July 2023

Presentamos los resultados del seguimiento de la iluminación solar en el interior de la cueva nº 3 del yacimiento arqueológico aborigen de Cuevas del Barranco de la Angostura (Agüimes, Gran Canaria). La cavidad tiene una forma cilíndrica con techo abovedado, rematada por una claraboya, similar a otras cuevas grancanarias donde se ha propuesto la existencia de marcadores astronómicos. Encontramos que el Sol ilumina el interior durante la mitad del año, desde unos diez u once días antes del equinoccio de otoño hasta otros tantos días después del equinoccio de primavera. El resultado más destacable es el descubrimiento de un marcador del solsticio de invierno muy preciso, pues los primeros rayos solares que iluminan el interior de la cueva en dicha fecha lo hacen dentro de una pequeña cúpula pintada situada en la pared norte. Encontramos también un posible marcador del equinoccio o del día mitad entre solsticios basado en el comportamiento del patrón de iluminación solar en dichas fechas.

In this study, it is aimed to develop performance approaches for organizational management from result-oriented to process-oriented in national educational institutions. Before starting to design the performance management system in other organizations, especially national educational institutions, important decisions need to be made on the issues that constitute the touchstone of the performance management system. There are two important objectives of performing performance evaluation, which helps to eliminate organizational conflict in organizations. The first goal of these is to obtain information about working performance. This information will be necessary while the management decision is being taken. Decisions regarding price and wage increases, bonuses, educational process, disciplinary order, career planning, promotion and assignment form and other managerial activities within the organization are usually based on the information and findings gained during the performance evaluation phase. The management power and staff of organizations cannot make managerial decisions without the knowledge and findings gained from performance evaluation and management. As with other orientations towards human resources in organizations, it is necessary to make arrangements in accordance with the legal standard that prevents discrimination against any person or persons in performance evaluation processes. The second purpose of performance evaluation in organizations is to provide feedback on how close employees are to the standard determined in the job description and job analysis. If workers are approached with a positive approach and supported by vocational training, the performance evaluation system will be very useful. People usually like to receive similar or exactly this kind of self-confidence-boosting and constructive feedback.

Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Chagas Disease
Authors: . Supriya , Mahajan Angad , Sharma Mridul
Published: July 2023

Chagas’ disease is caused by the flagellate protozoa Trypanosoma cruzi. It has 3 different stages acute, indeterminate and chronic phase. The disease is endemic in all continental Latin American countries, but has become a worldwide problem because of migration of infected individuals to developed countries, mainly in Europe and North America. Chagas cardiomyopathy results from the combined effects of persistent parasitism, parasite-driven tissue inflammation, microvascular and neurogenic dysfunction, and autoimmune responses triggered by the infection.
Treatment with antitrypanosomal drugs can cure CD in acute, congenital, and early chronic cases and provides improved clinical outcomes for chronic indeterminate cases. This treatment should be offered as early as possible, before advanced CCM develops.

Urethral stricture is a relatively common disease in male causing lower urinary tract symptoms. In most practice, fluoroscopy is the standard imaging technique to assess urethral stricture. However, it is not available at our local hospital. We present a case of 72-year-old male patient who reported hematuria after suffering a straddle injury. A one shot x-ray non fluoroscopy contrast injection urethrography was found partial stricture of the bulbous urethra. The patient was performed urethroplasty. Three months after operation, the patient has been able to void spontaneously. One shot x-ray non fluoroscopy contrast injection urethrography revealed remarkable widening and no contrast extravasation was apparent. It can be concluded that one shot x-ray non fluoroscopy contrast injection urethrography is a useful modality for diagnosis urethral stricture. The advantages of this examination are that it uses fewer staff and minimal radiation exposure. Meanwhile the disadvantages are the lack of accuracy and are operator dependent.

Published: July 2023

Anemia in pregnant women is a big problem in Indonesia, including West Sumatra. In the city of Padang, the provincial capital and the largest city in West Of the 23 Puskesmas in Padang City, the highest cases of anemia in pregnant women were recorded at the Pauh Puskesmas, which was 20%. One of the important causes of anemia is iron deficiency in the body of pregnant women. Iron deficiency during pregnancy occurs due to a doubling of the need for iron caused by an increase in blood volume to meet the mother's needs and the fetus's growth during pregnancy. Protein is the structure of hemoglobin. Therefore, protein intake is important in preventing iron deficiency in the blood, especially in pregnant women. The mother's hemoglobin and reticulocyte hemoglobin levels are normal if protein intake is suitable during pregnancy. This study used a cross-sectional research design at the Pauh Puskesmas and the Central Laboratory of RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang. The research sample is 62 pregnant women. Sampling using consecutive sampling. Data analysis used the computerized SPSS Pearson Correlation test (p<0.05). The results showed that the average protein intake, hemoglobin, and reticulocyte hemoglobin in the first, second, and third trimesters was 88.20 g, 84.48 g, 86.48 g, 11.86 g/dL, 11.42 g/dL, 11.13 g/dL, 29.32 pg, 29.83 pg, and 28.95 pg. Protein intake significantly correlated with hemoglobin levels. Protein intake was significantly associated with reticulocyte hemoglobin levels.
The study concluded that there was a relationship between protein intake and hemoglobin and reticulocyte hemoglobin levels in pregnant women.

Effect of Essential Oil of Basil Leaf (Ocimum basilicum) on Malondialdehyde (MDA) Levels in Wistar Rats with Excessive Physical Activity
Authors: Ari Tirtayasa Gede Agus , Jawi I Made , Griadhi I Putu Adiartha
Published: July 2023

Introduction: Excessive physical activity causes the formation of ROS and RNS in the body, which can damage cellular lipids, DNA and proteins. This is responsible for the formation of oxidants that cause the aging process. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is produced from lipid peroxidation and is the end product of oxidative stress. This study aims to prove that administration of basil leaf essential oil can reduce levels of MDA in Wistar rats with excessive physical activity.
Methods: This research was an experimental post-test only control group design using male rats as the object of research. The sample was divided into 2 groups, the treatment group which was given basil essential oil 30 minutes before physical activity, and the control group which was given 1 ml of aquabidest every day 30 minutes before excessive activity. Each group was given physical activity in the form of swimming for 60 minutes. Then on the 21st day, MDA levels were examined using the ELISA method on blood. Data is recorded and analyzed.
Results: The average (MDA) level in the control group was 3.229 nmol/mL (95% CI 2.823 – 3.635) with a standard deviation of 0.816. The lowest MDA level in the control group was 2.456 nmol/mL and the highest was 5.217 nmol/mL. The average MDA level in the treatment group was 2.356 nmol/mL (95% CI 2.204 – 2.508) with a standard deviation of 0.285 nmol/mL. The lowest MDA level in the treatment group was 1.768 nmol/mL and the highest was 2.772 nmol/mL.
Conclusion: Administration of basil essential oil resulted in lower MDA levels than controls in Wistar rats subjected to excessive physical activity.

Iron in Armenian really means a Sky Drop?
Authors: Yeghikyan A.
Published: July 2023

In the languages of the ancient Hittites and Egyptians, and later the Greeks, iron was called celestial
metal or by the close in meaning word. A browse review of iron names in several languages shows that
with the exception of the mentioned three languages, in other languages the name of the iron reflects its
function (hard, cutting, superpower, iron-stone, etc.) but not origin. According to the Hittite sources,
iron was produced by the masters of the Hatti kingdom controlled by Hittities, located, by the way, next
to the kingdom of Hayasa. Hatti adjoins the region on the southeastern coast of the Black Sea, where,
according to Aristotle, the Halibs lived - craftsmen who produced the best iron. It is known that the
mountain rivers of this area brought sand and accumulated in the mouths sand with a high content of
magnetite, an iron-containing mineral with a lower melting point (compared to other rocks). It is this
circumstance, according to geologists, that the beginning of the iron century takes place in this area
in the XV-XIII centuries BC. On the basis of all of the above, the literal translation of the Armenian
name of iron erkat = dropped from the sky does not seem to be meaningless. But academic philologists
categorically disagree with this. In this report, a more convincing (from the astrophysicist point of view)
etymology of the Armenian word erkat = er-ka = heavenly metal is proposed.

Long period fluctuations of solar active regions
Authors: Dumbadze G.
Published: July 2023

The fluctuation spectra of solar active regions (ARs) contain information about the geometrical features and ground physical processes responsible for the appearance of such a background vibration noise. The investigation is based on an analysis of a time series built photospheric magnetograms and comprises case studies of several types of AR structures. We detect characteristic properties of Fourier and wavelet spectra evaluated for the solar active region area and radial magnetic flux time series. There are long-period oscillations, similarly to the characteristic lifetimes of super-granulation, determined from the datasets of the AR total area and radial magnetic flux, respectively. According to our results the fluctuation spectra of the AR areas and radial magnetic fluxes somewhat differ from each other both in terms of values of the spectral power-law exponents, as well as their variability ranges in different consider cases. The characteristic properties of the area and radial magnetic flux fluctuation spectra for the Ars show noticeable discrepancies between each other. It can also be concluded that behind the formation of AR area and radial flux vibration spectra might be different physical mechanisms in action.

Authors: Hambaryan V. , Neuhaeuser R.
Published: July 2023

The project, funded by Science Committee of RA (ARPI program), intended to search, detection, kinematic study and identification of the birth places of the high-velocity and isolated neutron stars that encountered in the past with a stellar groups (multiple stars, stellar clusters, associations, etc.) closer than 10 pc, i.e. to test the concept: a high-velocity star and a stellar group or some of its members in the past were “in the same place at the same time”.
We plan to use stars with the high-quality astrometry and radial velocities from the very recently released Gaia DR3 catalogue and empirically select high-velocity candidates. Next, by using full gravitational potential of the Galaxy to calculate the motion of a stellar groups and a candidate of high-velocity star from their current positions to the proximity epoch. For numerical integration we will utilize the fast and accurate numerical integration.

Background: Premenstrual syndrome includes a bunch of physical and emotional problems that many girls and women get right before their periods begin each month. Premenstrual syndrome has both behavioral and physiological symptoms The present study was done to assess knowledge on Premenstrual Syndrome among adolescent girls at selected junior colleges. Objectives: 1) To assess the knowledge regarding premenstrual syndrome among adolescent girls of selected schools of Maharashtra state2) To find out the association between knowledge on premenstrual syndrome with selected demographic variables3) To prepare information booklet on Premenstrual syndrome. Methodology: The design used was Non experimental descriptive research design with quantitative approach. Stratified simple random sampling technique was used to select sample. The sample size was 30 adolescent girls between age 16-20 years. The tools used was structured questionnaire for socio-demographic and knowledge regarding premenstrual syndrome. Result: The findings of present study were that out of 30 girls 03 (10%) respondent had poor knowledge, 26 (86.67%) respondent had good knowledge and 1 (3.33%) respondent had excellent knowledge. Association between knowledge and demographic variables type of family, mother’s education, age at menarche, source of information, and place of living, attended sex education classes were found to be non significant association with knowledge score. Mother’s education and type of family got significant association with knowledge score.

CICERO - UN SCURT EPISOD ALETHIC (Tusculanae Disputationis, I, XVII, 39)
Authors: ADĂMUȚ Anton
Published: July 2023

Tusculanae Disputationis seeks to bring stoic philosophy in Rome. It is (mainly in the first of the five books, where I am interested in a fragment that I comment in the text) a dialogue about whether death is evil, thus being a lamentation vitae and a consolatio. The use of Plato, mainly his Phaidros and Phaidon is large, bringing forth the problem of the soul and his immortality, of the continuous movement of the soul as a sign of its immortality. Only what moves itself moves endlessly, because nothing forsakes itself. We notice with astonishment that the Aristotelic theory of primus movens is in fact to be found in Phaidros. All these are shared to us by Cicero and he prefers to be besides Plato and be wrong than be without Plato. Hence the later short alethic episode of Amicus Plato… Anyway, Cicero’s probabilistic perspective does not make him argue the truth, but only makes him say that the truth is neither pure nor simple.
SUBIECTUL CA EXISTENȚĂ LA MAURICE MERLEAU-PONTY
Authors: NEACȘU Adriana
Published: July 2023

In this article, the author analyzes Merleau-Ponty's position on the issue of the subject, as it appears in his work Phenomenology of Perception. She finds that the philosopher approaches the subject from several perspectives: as a thinking subject, which is consciousness, as a perceptual subject, which is the body, and as a plenary or total subject, which expresses the close unity of the two, and which he calls "existence." The author highlights the specificity of the subject as existence and emphasizes that this existence represents human existence. Analyzing human existence as a subject, the author also addresses the issues of intersubjectivity, history and freedom.
„THE SOCIOLOGY OF SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE“ (SSK) ZWISCHEN EPISTEMISCHEM SKEPTIZISMUS UND SOZIALER HERMENEUTIK DER WISSENSCHAFT. EINE KRITISCHE EINFÜHRUNG IN DAS SSK-FORSCHUNGSPROGRAMM
Authors: PERSU Darius
Published: July 2023

In this paper considerations are made regarding the question of whether the SSK (“Sociology of Scientific Knowledge”) research program represents a skeptical view of scientific knowledge. In this regard, I will try to defend the SSK against the objection of skepticism. The paper includes five parts. After a brief historical introduction about the development of the SSK research program, in the next two parts of the article the terms used here with reference to the SSK research program and epistemic skepticism are more precisely defined and critically discussed. In the fourth point, the attempt is made to illustrate the investigation undertaken here using the example of the so-called “regress of the experimenters”. The fifth part presents the basic theses of social hermeneutics that SSK proposes regarding scientific knowledge. The closing remarks offer me the opportunity to briefly summarize the most important points and, based on this, to make my suggestion for understanding the SSK.
