As an important carrier and tool for the implementation of China’s national strategies such as “building China into a maritime power” and “Belt & Road”, oceanographic research vessels also face new demands and development prospects. The current standards and specifications for oceanographic research vessels in China are generally old and outdated, lack of professional specifications, and deficient of standard guidance for the use of scientific research equipment on oceanographic research vessels. From the perspective of the classification and special stability of scientific research equipment on oceanographic research vessels, an evaluation system for the stability of scientific research equipment is proposed, in hope of providing reference for the use of scientific research equipment on oceanographic research vessels.
A System Analysis of the Emerging Concept of “Inter-regional Justice of Energy Transition” in China
Authors: Li Zheng , Tang Ruoyao , Ma Linwei
Published: July 2023

During the low-carbon development of China, the different capacity and impact of energy transition among regions has raised an issue of inter-regional justice. However, there are few studies on it, and even basic concepts are lacking. This study proposed the definition of the concept “inter-regional justice of energy transition” (IRJET) based on a system approach. First, the connotations and cross-fields of three basic concepts of “justice transition”, “energy transition”, and “coordinated regional development” are analysed and compared based on China’s background. Second, we take Shanxi Province as a typical case to identify the barriers of IRJET. Third, action suggestions are proposed, combined the policy mechanism of China’s carbon peak policy and the EU’s just transition mechanism. The results indicated that “IRJET” means during the low-carbon energy transition, some regions with concentrated traditional and high-emission industries must be protected to avoid serious losses for current generation’s need satisfaction, while the whole country can be prosperous and carbon reduction targets can be realized. The main barriers include lacking of a clear positioning of each region for multi-regional cooperation in the low-carbon energy transition, lacking of a policy mechanism to balance benefits and costs among regions, lacking of a multi-regional energy and carbon market mechanism that can fully considers the needs of each region，inefficient talent and fund guarantee mechanism. To end this up, national governments should clarify the significance and requirements of IRJET. Cross regional enterprises should layout high-quality industries in disadvantage regions. Local governments should actively participate in energy transition and actively reduce the impact of transition.
Study on the influence of fiber layering on the tensile properties of carbon fiber composites
Authors: Pang Anwei
Published: July 2023

In order to study how the tensile properties of carbon fiber composites change under different layering angles and layering sequences, this paper analyzed the tensile process of CFRP laminates under six different layering modes by using numerical simulation method based on ABAQUS finite element software, and compared the major tensile mechanical properties parameters of CFRP laminates under different layering modes. For example, tensile strength, tensile stiffness, and other physical quantities can measure the mechanical properties of the laminates, and finally obtain a reasonable laminate way that can effectively improve the tensile properties of CFRP laminates. The simulation results show that, under the premise that the number of CFRP laminates is certain, the 0° laminates should be placed on the outside of the laminates as far as possible, and the proportion of 0° laminates should be increased appropriately, which can effectively improve the longitudinal tensile strength of the laminates. The tensile stiffness of laminates can be increased by the existence of positive symmetric or antisymmetric laminates.

Authors: Liu Jiaran , Li Guoping , Luo Yunjun
Published: July 2023

Silane coupling agent has low surface energy, and its side chain contains organic groups that are easy to participate in the reaction. In the process of film formation, Si is easy to aggregate to the surface, which has the advantages of water and oil resistance, good permeability, low glass transition temperature and good thermal stability. Therefore, in this paper, four silane coupling agents such as KH540, KH550, KH560 and AEAPTMS were used to hydrophobically modify waterborne polyurethane (WPU). A series of self-matting waterborne polyurethane solutions were prepared with HTPB and PTMG as soft segments and IPDI as hard segment. The siloxane introduced in the WPU structure was hydrolyzed to form a Si-O-Si hydrophobic structure, which increased the crosslinking degree of the system and improved the water resistance of the system. It was also beneficial to increase the particle size and improved the extinction performance of WPU. Through comprehensive analysis, we found that the most suitable silane coupling agent for modifing self-matting WPU was AEAPTMS. After modification, the gloss of WPU leather coating can be reduced to 0.4 GU, and the surface energy can be reduced to 19.72 mJ/m2. It greatly improved the extinction performance and water and solvent resistance of WPU, and has a wide application prospect in the field of WPU leather finishing agent.

Authors: He Qian
Published: July 2023

After the reform and opening up, with the change of state-society relationship structure in China, the formation mode of public policy in China is shifting from state-led to state-led and limited interaction between state and society. This transformation with modern value orientation shows that after the reform and opening up, China has begun the cooperation and interaction between the state and society, and the value concept of social fairness and justice has been paid more attention and manifested. The ultimate realization of the modern transformation of China's public policy formation mode depends on the establishment and improvement of the state-society cooperation and coordination mechanism, and the realization of positive interaction between the state and society, so that it can ultimately promote the development of democratic politics and social progress.

Avianpox (AP) is an infectious, slow spreading viral disease that has been reported to affect numerous species of birds including poultry. There is very limited information available regarding the molecular and biological characteristics of the avipox viruses (APVs) circulating in India. In the present study, APVs from fowl [FP/As- K(R)], pigeon [P2/ As- K9(R)] and duck [D2/ As- N] origin isolated from natural outbreaks of the disease in different areas of Assam were selected for adaptation in different cell culture. All the three isolates were propagated in chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) primary cell culture and Vero cell line and their propagation was confirmed by observing virus specific cytopathic effects (CPE) and by performing PCR targeting the 4b gene of APV. All three isolates were adapted in the CEF primary culture with production of virus specific CPE. However, a high degree of CPE was observed in the cultures infected with the fowl isolate from an earlier passage (P-11) in comparison to the other two isolates. Even the time required for completion of CPE was considerably less in case of the fowl isolate. The log TCID50 of the fowl isolate was found to be 4.18 ± 0.11, 5.29 ± 0.06 and 6.29 ± 0.13, respectively in the 5th, 15th and 20th passage, which was higher in comparison to the other two isolates. Interestingly, none of the isolates showed any virus specific CPE in vero cell line on propagation till the 10th passage. Moreover, all the passages were found to be negative by PCR.

Published: July 2023

The 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1 (HSD3B1) gene has a great influence on reproductive traits and therefore has been widely studied. However, little is known about the relationships between polymorphisms of the HSD3B1 gene and laying traits in Taihang chickens. Therefore, the HSD3B1 gene was selected for polymorphism detection and analysis of its relationship with laying performance traits. The mRNA expression levels of HSD3B1 in 16 tissues of Taihang chickens were detected, and the HSD3B1 gene was SNP screened and genotyped, and associated with laying traits. The results showed that the HSD3B1 gene was widely expressed. The HSD3B1 expression level was highest in F1 follicles, lowest in small white follicles, and differentially expressed in large follicles with small yellow follicles. The C274T allele was moderately polymorphic in Taihang chickens, and the age of opening day was significantly earlier for the CC genotype than for other genotypes. The present results demonstrate that the homozygous CC genotype can be considered a genotype for molecular marker-assisted selection (MAS) to improve the breeding efficiency of Taihang chickens.

The present study investigated the effect of a phytogenic feed additive (PFA) formulated with Aerva lanata, Piper betle, Cynodon dactylon and Piper nigrum on the haematological and serum biochemical profiles in broiler chicken, and its efficacy to improve quality and oxidative stability of chicken meat. In a six-week experiment, a total of 192 day-old broiler chicks were subjected to four dietary treatments that included, basal diet+ chlortetracycline; only basal diet without chlortetracycline and PFA; and basal diet + 1 or 2% PFA. Each treatment group included six replicates of eight birds per replicate. The results showed improved albumin and cholesterol in serum of birds fed 1% PFA. The meat of birds supplemented 1% PFA showed a significant reduction in drip loss after 1 and 4 days of storage. The lipid peroxidation of breast meat measured as malondialydehyde concentration was not altered by dietary treatments at different periods of storage. Feeding 1% PFA did not induce any toxic effects on liver, kidney and spleen histology. It was concluded that the PFA when used as a feed additive improved serum biochemistry and meat quality in broiler chickens.
The criminal responsibility of the individual at the international plan
Authors: Silva Bárbara Thaís Pinheiro
Published: July 2023

With the occurrence of the two world wars in the 20th century, in addition to other international and non-international conflicts, the search for the criminalization of individuals who committed human atrocities, at a global level, was strengthened. Consequently, the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals were established as a reflection of the outcry of the international society in the face of war crimes. Thus, the principle of the criminal responsibility of the individual and the existence of international criminal courts are directly linked, above all because the absence of these courts would make it impossible for the individual to be effectively criminally responsible at the international level (WOOTTON, 1981).

Published: July 2023

The feeling that is found in the people of a nation regarding the unity of their language, religion, region, source of livelihood, and customs is what makes it unique from other nations. This feeling is called the concept of nationalism. Most of the short story writers try to describe this concept in their writings. Zahida Hina is one of them, she is a renowned Urdu short story writer, Novelist, Columnist, and poetess of the era. She has short stories books namely “Titliaan Dhondny Wali”, “Rah ma Ajal hy”, “Raqs Bismal Hy”, and “Qaidi Saans Lyta hy”. Her short story “Hua Phir sy Hukm Sadir” is included in “Raqs Bismal hy” and in this short story, Zahida Hina tried to describe the geographical and chronological distance between the people of the two countries after the migration. It has been described in such a way that the attitudes of mutual hatred and non-conformity between the people of the two countries have come to the fore. The spirit of nationalism takes a negative direction when the color of extremism prevails in it. In this research, it will be found how nationalism is described by a writer as a psychological disorder.

Wazir Agha was known as a critic but first of all, he is a poet. He started his literary career as a poet. Wazir Agha's poem presents a rich picture of human psychology. Man has been in search of the mystery of existence since eternity. Wazir Agha presented such excellent symbols in his poetry that these symbols and metaphors become an effort of mere suffering, oppression, unconscious, or mere optimism and sovereignty beyond the conscious and the subconscious. Wazir Agha is not only an authentic reference to human psychology but also to modern psychological theories. He not only describes his sexual experience but also the effects of childhood on human life, repression of emotions in youth, fear of death in middle age and the revelation in old age also describes the caste very well.

Necesidades neuróticas: condicionantes en la percepción de la paz y la construcción de una vida digna
Authors: Moreno García Blanca Verónica , Moreno Cuahtecontzi Francisco Javier
Published: July 2023

La presente investigación tuvo como escenario de estudio la ciudad de Chetumal, cuyo objetivo consistió en abordar la percepción que tienen los individuos para la construcción de la Paz, como condición para mantener relaciones de armonía con los demás, identificando para el efecto las necesidades neuróticas incorporadas en el modelo del mundo de las personas. Se utilizó como modelo explicativo de la conducta la teoría sobre las necesidades neuróticas de Horney, quien explica que la interpretación de la realidad interpersonal tiene una profunda influencia por estas necesidades. El enfoque fue cualitativo, con un diseño narrativo de historia de vida de naturaleza autobiográfica, abordando las historias personales de los sujetos y los comentarios de sus experiencias. A través de la entrevista a profundidad se explora el modelo del mundo de los sujetos, utilizando el Metamodelo propuesto por Bandler y Grinder inspirado en la gramática transformacional de Chomsky; la muestra fue de máxima variación de 471 sujetos entre 18 y 60 años. Los resultados indican que la percepción de la Paz como valor afectivo depende de la salud mental de quien la anhela, siendo las necesidad neurótica de poder, de explotación y de dependencia las que presentan mayor incidencia y expresan mayor nivel de malestar en la percepción de la interpretación de la realidad;  a diferencia de las personas que tienen la necesidad neurótica de admiración, de logro personal y de vivir la vida dentro de límites estrechos, las que tienen menor nivel de incidencia; concluyendo que, si bien la Paz es deseada para una vida armónica, los desajustes de personalidad son un filtro que condicionan la percepción sobre la construcción de la misma en un camino de malestar permanente.

Aim: to study radiological semiotics of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) detected by CT of the chest, and establish radiological patterns, which significantly increase effectiveness of navigation bronchobiopsies. Materials and methods. A cohort retrospective study included 278 patients with PPLs with verified diagnoses established by invasive diagnostic procedures (navigation bronchoscopy with a complex of biopsies and/or diagnostic thoracic surgery). The study included 162 (58.3%) women aged 13 to 80 yrs. (average age – 46.21 ± 5.23) and 116 (41.7%) men aged 14 to 85 yrs. (average age – 46.05 ± 3.49). The patients were divided into 4 nosological groups: pulmonary TB patients – 158 (56.8%), neoplastic patients – 79 (28.4%), nontuberculous pulmonary mycobacteriosis (NTPM) patients – 21 (7.6%), and protracted course community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients (presentations of PPLs) – 20 (7.2%). Results. According to chest CT data, PPLs had three major radiological sings, defined as “infiltrate”, “rounded shadow”, and “focus”. Rounded shadows prevailed in NTPM patients and neoplastic patients. Statistically significant differences between the groups were as follows: the medium maximum size and contour of PPLs (focus / rounded shadow / infiltrate), the presence of bronchiectasis and the type of foci (lobular/sublobular/acinar) in the lung parenchyma surrounding PPLs, the presence of calcification, cavitation, or air bronchograms inside PPLs. The total effectiveness of bronchoscopic verification of PPLs in patients with “CT bronchus sign” was 79.4%, which significantly exceeded diagnosis verification in patients without it (17.9%) (р < 0.001). The effectiveness of diagnosis verification by bronchobiopsy in patients with PPLs less than 20 mm (CT data) achieved 50% irrespective of etiology. The most effective bronchoscopic verification of diagnoses was observed in TB and NTPM patients with PPLs ≥ 20 mm – 83.3% and 100.0% respectively, and in neoplastic patients with PPLs ≥ 30 mm it reached 93.0%. The lobar localization of the process did not affect the diagnostic effectiveness of bronchobiopsies. Conclusion. The highest effectiveness of bronchobiopsies was observed in patients with the CT bronchus sign and with PPLs ≥ 20 mm or ≥ 30 mm (CT data). The volume of diagnostic biopsies obtained by navigation bronchoscopy or surgical resection should be determined by radiological morphology of PPLs with estimation of malignancy or benign signs revealed by CT of the chest.

We carried out a cohort retrospective study to justify the possibilities to continue the main TB treatment course in adolescents with determined drug susceptibility during treatment (without return to treatment commencement) in order to reduce the total duration of treatment. Out of 123 patients who completed treatment in 2019–2022 we selected 31 patients with drug susceptibility test (DST) results obtained by only cultural studies using BACTEC MGIT 960 after 1.5-2 months of treatment. We established that DST results obtained using BACTEC MGIT 960 during treatment would determine further treatment tactics. We compared two groups of patients. Group 1 included 17 patients susceptible to at least 3 TB drugs and positive clinical and X-ray dynamics; their treatment regimens were corrected without return to the intensive phase. Group 2 included 14 patients susceptible to 1-2 TB drugs of the administered regimen without positive clinical and X-ray dynamics; after treatment correction they received the intensive phase of treatment again. The comparison of the main chemotherapy course duration showed that the patients of group 2 received treatment for a significantly longer period of time as compared to the patients of group 1 (the Mann–Whitney U test – 30.5, the critical value 67; р < 0.05).

Objective: to assess effectiveness of surgical treatment for mediastinal lung hernias using a polymeric mesh implant in patients after pneumonectomy due to TB. Materials and methods. Polymeric mesh implants were installed to 15 patients, which developed mediastinal lung hernias after pneumonectomy due to TB. Four of these patients underwent lung hernia plasty along with resection of the only lung, where single or multiple tuberculomas were detected. The assessment of treatment effectiveness was based on the features of early and late (after 3 months) postoperative period, dyspnea severity by the mMRC scale, radiological and spirometric data, and blood gases. The resection samples were studied morphologically to determine activity of TB process in the only lung. Results. The effectiveness of treatment for mediastinal lung hernias was 93%. Technical success was achieved in 100% of patients. The complications in the postoperative period were lessthan 7% (one case). Dyspnea decreased by 46% by the mMRC scale. The medians of FVC and FEV1 decreased by 12.8% and 11.6% respectively, the median of PaO2 increased by 6 mm Hg (9% of the baseline value). The median of the shifted lung tissue volume (V cm3) decreased by 57%. Active TB process was observed in the resection samples of the single lung. Conclusion. Anterior mediastinal plasty using a polymeric mesh implant is a safe and highly effective method of treatment for mediastinal lung hernias. Timely use of this method postpneumonectomy patients is necessary to obtain positive treatment outcomes.

AN EFFECT OF WORD OF MOUTH IN MOBILE PURCHASE INTENTION: A CASES FROM KATHMANDU
Authors: Manandhar Raju Bhai
Published: July 2023

Word-of-mouth is the sound of new ideas reaching our ears through discussion, information sharing, radio, storytelling, etc. When people hear another story, its impact is felt in their brains. It is a free type of advertising brought by consumers’ perceptions, sentiments, and ideas. The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of rapport, source similarity, source attractiveness, trust, and physical evidence on mobile phone purchasing intention. The research design was analytical for this study. The population of mobile phone users was targeted to survey. The study was conducted among 199 respondents within Kathmandu Valley. The respondents were chosen at the mobile shop using a convenience sampling technique. Quantitative data was used in nature, and the main source of information for the study was primary data. A questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale has been made to collect the needed data and information. Respondents were given 250 questionnaires, but only 210 were sent back. 199 of them were valid and were put into the SPSS spread sheet. Data was analyzed and interpreted using statistical methods like descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation and inferential statistics as independent sample t test, correlation, and regression. According to the study’s findings, rapport, source similarity, source attractiveness, trust, and physical evidence all had an impact on mobile purchasing intention. The findings also revealed that trust and physical evidence had an impact on mobile phone purchase intentions. However, rapport, source similarity, and source attractiveness did not significantly affect the purchase intentions. In addition, researchers can study the causative factors of the purchase decision and analyze the effect of demographic variables on word of mouth and purchase intention.
IFRS ADOPTION AND KEY ACCOUNTING RATIOS: AN EVIDENCE FROM COLOMBO STOCK EXCHANGE
Authors: Nijam  , Priyadarshani
Published: July 2023

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adoption on key accounting ratios of firms listed in the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE). The study also sought to test if the entity’s sector discriminates the impact that the IFRS adoption has on accounting ratios being evaluated. Descriptive statistics and non-parametric univariate analysis (Mann Whitney U test) were used to compare pre and post IFRS convergence ratios. The researchers tested eleven accounting ratios falling under profitability, liquidity, leverage, and market performance. We randomly sampled 40 firms listed in CSE, 20 each from the service and manufacturing sectors. The study period was ten years from 2007 through 2016, whereby the periods corresponding to pre-IFRS convergence were from 2007 through 2011, and post-IFRS convergence was captured from 2012 through 2016.. We showed that all profitability measures we tested were significantly impacted by IFRS adoption. We infer that the direct comparability of the profitability measures across pre and post-IFRS periods is no longer useful for decision making. In contrast, all liquidity ratios investigated were significantly indifferent between the pre and post-IFRS adoption. We have argued that liquidity measures have not changed considerably due to IFRS adoption and may thus still be comparable across pre and post-IFRS periods. Leverage and market ratios returned mixed results. We also document that the IFRS convergence’s impact on profitability and leverage ratios tends to be influenced by the sector in which firms operate, while its impact is not evidenced in relation to liquidity measures and market ratios. The limitation of this paper is that the effects of firm-specific variables and macro-economic factors on accounting ratios were not controlled. The results are useful for those interested in analyzing the long-term trends of accounting ratios. Our findings will also help the policymakers, standards setters, financial analysts, and future researchers about the behaviors of accounting ratios and quality financial reporting due to convergence to IFRS-based accounting regimes. This study is one of very few works on this topic in Sri Lanka, an IFRS jurisdiction with a developing economy.

A área de Inteligência Artificial (IA) tem potencial para melhorar o ensino e a aprendizagem, por exemplo, por meio da análise de dados produzidos em ambientes educacionais. Além disso, também pode agravar a desigualdade, pois exige que alunos e instrutores tenham acesso à infraestrutura (smartphones ou computadores) exigida pela maioria dessas ferramentas para gerar e analisar dados. No entanto, o acesso a tal infraestrutura não é uma realidade para muitos estudantes ao redor do mundo. Para lançar luz sobre esse problema, este artigo investiga, por meio de um Estudo de Mapeamento Sistemático (MS), iniciativas que permitem uma análise de dados mais inclusiva usando IA na educação, especialmente em cenários com poucos recursos de conectividade. Identificamos que essas iniciativas são escassas e estão focadas na primeira fase da tarefa de análise de dados: a coleta de dados. Com base nos resultados do MS, propomos um conjunto de recomendações para os pesquisadores oferecerem direções para uma análise mais inclusiva de dados educacionais usando IA.

Der Fokus liegt dabei auf der Frage nach den sozialen Beziehungen der Incoming-Freiwilligen und deren transnationalen Beziehungsnetzwerk. Mit wem sind die jungen Menschen in Kontakt? Wie und mit wem verbringen sie ihre Freizeit und von wem werden sie unterstützt? Die sozialen Beziehungen sind stets auf der Folie von postkolonialen Strukturen zu reflektieren, so die Grundthese des Beitrags.
Characterising smart service systems – Revealing the smart value
Authors: Kurtz Julian , Zinke-Wehlmann Christian , Lugmair Nina , Schymanietz Martin , Roth Angela
Published: July 2023

The increasing use of digital technologies is creating new values, which can be unfold in smart service systems (SSS). Although SSS offer multiple values in products and services, research is still struggling to fully capture the specific values of "smart" as result of digital technologies. Therefore, there is no all-encompassing value understanding of SSS. In our work, we derive values of SSS, especially the "smart" values, by a qualitative analysis of cases in an open coding approach. These cases are identified by a systematic literature review. The derived “smart” values are e.g. increasing system transparency and autonomy, increasing knowledge integration, and enabling ecological savings fostering value in context. The specific values of "smart" in SSS give rise to value in context as a representation of those specific values. In addition, the emergence of derived values in SSS is further illustrated with an SSS value continuum, which presents value in product, value in services, and value in context as characterisation of values in SSS. The derived values and the SSS value continuum developed are intended to promote a better understanding of SSS and its value manifestations, and provide a basis for further research into SSS as a theoretical lens for value co-creation.
