Published: June 2022

Geothermal energy has attracted increasing attention worldwide due to its abundant reserves, stability, and sustainability. Based on the survey of geothermal resources in the Yanqing-Huailai Basin, this paper conducts comprehensive data study, demonstrates geothermal distribution and multiscale characteristics, and constructs the geothermal mechanism and conceptual model to promote regional geothermal energy development and utilization. Our study proposes to characterize geothermal reservoirs using geophysical data ranging from the representative geothermal field scale to the basin scale. Hydrochemical samples were also collected. According to the results of multiscale analysis and interpretation, combined with field geological and geothermal investigations, it is concluded that the Dahaituo pluton is composed of acid granite and monzonite granite, with low gravity and high magnetic anomaly. Its intrusion and development are responsible for the local geothermal anomaly. Multiscale analysis and source depth estimation of potential field data and MT profile interpretation were carried out. The regional thermal structure and reservoir characteristics were demonstrated from the deep to the shallow. In addition, according to the regional geological background and geophysical interpretation, a three-dimensional geological model is constructed to characterize the distribution law and genetic mechanism of geothermal anomalies. The study shows that strong Cenozoic tectonic movement and the intrusion and development of rock mass are the main factors causing local geothermal anomaly. The development of regional deep and major faults and extensional structures, as well as the channels and space formed by the breaking of rocks at the intersection of faults, provides advantageous conditions for the upwelling, migration, and convergence of geothermal fluids. The recharge of surface water in the intermountain basin and thermal convection drive the circulation of the geothermal system.
A Dramatic Marine Environment Change in the Beibu Gulf of the South China Sea around 3.2 kyr BP

Published: June 2022

The profile geochemical characteristics of a seafloor sediment core, collected from the Beibu Gulf of the South China Sea, have been investigated in terms of the sediment grain size, the content of major and trace elements, the total organic carbon (TOC) and organic nitrogen (TN), and the carbon isotopic composition of organic matter (δ13Corg) and AMS 14C dating. These results show that the core sediments were deposited since 11.3 kyr BP and the profile could be clearly divided into the lower and upper sediment section based on geochemical characteristics. The lower section covers the depth of 86 cm to 200 cm and was deposited from 3.2 to 11.3 kyr BP, while the upper section is at the depth of 4 to 86 cm and represents sediments from 0.2 to 3.2 kyr BP. The upper section sediments are charcteristized by a much finer grain size and a clearly positive deviation of the δ13Corg value. Obviously, the overall profile geochemical characteristics indicate that the upper section was deposited under a significantly deeper seawater depth associated with a relatively weaker hydrodynamic and a better preservation condition for organic matter, while the low section was deposited under a relatively shallow seawater depth with the relatively stronger hydrodynamic condition and a relatively poor preservation condition for organic matter. Finally, it is suggested that the transition between the lower section and the upper section occurring around 3.2 kyr BP was mostly likely due to a dramatic marine environmental change caused by the rapid seafloor subsidence associated with the further expansion of the Qiongzhou Strait. And further multidisciplinary studies are needed to better reveal and understand different aspects of the significance of this marine environment change in the Beibu Gulf of the South China Sea.
“Trust Not A Man At The Fyrst Sight”: Tracing a Proto-Feminist Thought in Isabella Whitney’s Poetry
Authors: DÜRÜKOĞLU Okaycan
Published: June 2022

This paper examines the poems in Isabella Whitney’s two poetry collections, The Copy of a Letter (1567) and A Sweet Nosegay (1573) to trace a pro-woman argument in her works. In her poems, Whitney’s themes and subject matter point out that she is a marginal woman poet of sixteenth-century England since she assumes the role of a counsellor for the inexperienced women who might be manipulated by men. Instead of writing in a low-key manner as expected from the woman writers of the sixteenth century, she adopts an assertive and critical style in her poetry. By articulating this pro-woman argument in her poems, Whitney attacks Ovidian tradition and she re-reads and sometimes rewrites the stories of the traditionally silenced female figures in myths and male texts. Whitney seeks solutions for women who are culturally and socially trapped in the patriarchal texts.
Toplumsal Rol Kategorileri Bağlamında “Horoz” ve “Dünyanın Nizamı” Başlıklı Hikâyeler
Authors: ÖKSÜZ GÜNEŞ Elif
Published: June 2022

Bireysel varlığı ile kolektif kimliğini kurma aşamasındaki insan, ben’ini ve ötekini tanımlama çabalarında sosyal normlardan bağımsız davranamaz. Bu normlar kadın-erkek şeklinde biyolojik cinsiyete dayalı yapılan kategorilendirmede toplumsal cinsiyetin oluşmasına yol açar. Erkek kendisine güç, akıl, bilgi, muhakeme ve yönetme kabiliyetini yakıştırıp buna göre davranıp güçsüzleri kendisine itaat ettirirken kadın, uysallık ve zayıflıkla tanımlanır. Bu durum sadece biyolojik bakımdan kadın olanlar için değil, erkekler için de geçerlidir. İçinde yaşadığı toplumun davranış normlarını başarıyla eserlerine yansıtan Ömer Seyfettin, benlik ve kimlik algısını “Horoz” ve “Dünyanın Nizamı” adlı hikâyelerinde toplumsal cinsiyetin hiyerarşisini miras olarak kendinden sonrakilere aktaran kadınlar ve erkekler cephesinden katmanlı biçimde kurguya taşır. İlk katmanda kadın-erkek arasındaki hiyerarşik ilişkide erkek egemenliğini insan dışındaki canlılardan örnekler. Erkeğin simgesi olarak gösterilen horozun kümesteki egemenliğini, babanın evdeki hükümdarlığıyla bütünler. İki hikâyede de erkeğin kadına fiziksel, psikolojik şiddet uygulaması; evin efendisi olma hakkını kendinde görmesi, bunun kadın tarafından onaylanması işlenir. İkinci katmanda babanın oğula kendi hâkimiyetini tanıtması söz konusudur. Baba varken oğulun söz hakkının bulunmaması; ancak babadan sonra ya da kendi evleri olduğunda erkeklik/güç iddiasında bulunabileceği ve bunun kadın tarafından onaylanması dile getirilir. Bu yazıda “Horoz” ve “Dünyanın Nizamı” adlı hikâyeler ekseninde kadınların ve erkeklerin toplumsal kaderlerini değiştirmekten ziyade, mevcut yazgıyı kendilerinden sonraki nesillere kültürel miras şeklinde sunmaları eleştirilecek ve konu, “erkeklik/masculinity çalışmaları” bağlamında değerlendirilecektir.

Bir İdealin İnşası: Stoacı Dünya Yurttaşlığı
Authors: MOLACI Melike
Published: June 2022

Antikçağ ve Aydınlanma düşüncesinin başlıca ideallerinden olan dünya yurttaşlığı, çağdaş felsefenin ve siyaset tartışmalarının halen tartışılan konularındandır. Günümüzde evrensel ile yerel, insanseverlik ile yurtseverlik arasındaki gerilimi/uzlaşmayı vurgulayan düşünürlerden bazıları, bu kadim ideali çağdaş koşullara uyarlayarak yeniden dile getirirler; diğerleri ise onu geride bırakılması gereken tarihsel bir an, bir nostalji olarak düşünürler. Bununla birlikte bu kavramın yahut idealin tarihi oldukça karmaşıktır; nitekim yüzyıllar boyunca yurttaşlık konumunu dolduran özneler farklılaşmış ve yurdun anlamı da dönemden döneme değişmiştir. Kökleri Kinik filozoflara dayanan dünya yurttaşlığı ilk kez Stoacıların uzun uzadıya temellendirdikleri bir ideal olsa da bu okulun düşüncesinde bile onun tek bir anlamı yoktur. Bu kadim ideal, Stoacılığın dönemleri boyunca farklılaşmış ve günümüzdeki anlamını ancak geç dönem Stoacı filozoflarla kazanmıştır. O halde halen tartışılan bir kavramın tarihini, belirli bir dönemle sınırlayarak incelemeyi amaçlayan bu yazıda, Stoacı dünya yurttaşlığı kavramına odaklanılmaktadır. Stoacılığın dönemleri boyunca dünya yurttaşlığının nasıl değiştiği ve bir ideal olarak nasıl temellendirildiği ele alınmaktadır.
Domination and the Arts of Resistance: Hidden Transcript
Authors: PARLAK Fatmanur , ISLAM Mozharul
Published: June 2022

This review critically analyzes James Scott's book, Domination and the Arts of Resistance. Scott's account explores the mysteries of unequal power relations in society and the reflection of human behavior in the intellectual world. The book examines the reflections of people's positions on their actions in social life. In addition, by producing new concepts such as public and hidden transcripts, the author contributes to the process of social interpretation. Based on these concepts, Scott tries to analyze why people behave differently in different environments and examine these behaviors' motives. In this way, he explains that the emotions that people involuntarily reflect in some extraordinary situations come from these hidden urges. Within the scope of this book review, we analyzed the book based on Scott's strategies for advancing this scholarship and the relationships in our daily lives. We also tried to emphasize the importance of the book reflected in human life and observed in the social sphere.

Published: June 2022

Stimulating scientific activity in students of higher medical educational institutions is one of the important tasks of the current healthcare system. However, should this be limited to student journals and conferences only? Can students apply for publication in major scientific journals on an equal basis with renowned scientists? In our work, we determined how often medical students publish articles in peer-reviewed pediatric journals and whether the scientometric indicators of their work differ from the general array of articles. We manually selected 2,618 publications of the journals «Practical Pediatric Problems» and «Russian Bulletin of Perinatology and Pediatrics» using the information analysis system of the Scientific Electronic Library, of which 74 articles (2,8%) were written with the participation of students. They do not differ significantly from the total number of publications based on to the main scientometric indicators, such as the total number of citations of publications, the average number of citations per article, and the number of articles cited at least once. This indirectly suggests that these materials comply with the accepted standards of publishing practice typical for peer-reviewed scientific journals. We believe that, under the guidance of experienced teachers, future pediatricians can not only contribute to the collection of materials for research and their statistical processing, but also, possibly, offer new ideas based on advanced medical knowledge.
Nephronophthisis due to mutation in the TMEM67 gene
Authors: Andreeva E. F. , Savenkova N. D.
Published: June 2022

The urgency of the problem is due to the prevalence and clinical heterogeneity of hereditary cystic kidney diseases. The phenotypic diversity of nephronophthisis and nephronophthisis-related syndromes, which in most cases are characterized by an autosomal recessive type of inheritance, suggests the necessity of genotype diagnosis to personalize the choice of therapeutic means, taking into account the individual (genetic) characteristics of the disease in a particular patient. The article provides a review of the literature on the characteristics of the clinical phenotype and genotype of nephronophthisis and nephronophthisis-related syndromes that developed as a result of mutations in the TMEM67 gene (Meckel—Gruber 3 syndrome, Bardet—Biedl 14 syndrome, Joubert 6 syndrome, COACH 1 syndrome, RHYNS syndrome). On the example of a proband with prenatally identified renal cysts and nephrogenic arterial hypertension (AH) from birth, the features of the course and diagnosis of nephronophthisis-11 due to mutations in the TMEM67 gene were demonstrated. Difficulties in differential diagnosis in patients with a negative family history confirm the importance of molecular genetic testing.

Published: June 2022

Premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension have a longer persistence of apnea of prematurity and periodic breathing. We hypothesized that apnea of prematurity and periodic breathing may be associated with the persistence of pulmonary hypertension in infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

The aim of the study was to determine the characteristics of apnea episodes and periodic breathing in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension.

Characteristics of  children and research methods. Cardiorespiratory monitoring was conducted on 27 premature infants born at 22 0/7 — 29 0/7 weeks of gestation with a body weight of <1000 grams. All infants had bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and 14 infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia were diagnosed pulmonary hypertension (main cohort).

Results. The group of infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia + pulmonary hypertension had lower average SpO2, higher desaturation index and apnea/hypopnea index as compared to infants without pulmonary hypertension. Four infants from the main cohort had obstructive apnea index of ˃1 events/hour and had high values of 1,1; 2,5; 5,8, and 8,6/hour. In the comparison group, only one infant had a high obstructive apnea index (1,1/hour). Eleven infants(78%) with pulmonary hypertension had episodes of periodic breathing, at the same time only six infants (46%) in the group without pulmonary hypertension had such episodes. Periodic breathing episodes with a drop of SpO2 <90% were registered in 82% of cases in the main cohort and in 67% of cases in infants of the comparison group.

Conclusion. Premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia and pulmonary hypertension had more significant decrease in mean SpO2, increased desaturation index and apnea/hypopnea index and tend to have obstructive apnea index >1/hour and longer periodic breathing than infants without pulmonary hypertension.

Published: June 2022

Identifying the characteristics of Indonesian local governments that disclose financial statements looks relevant in order to find out the reasons for local governments in making policies to disclose financial statements. This study aims to examine whether financial condition, financial independence and political competition have an effect on the disclosure of financial statements in local governments, particularly districts/cities in Sumatra, Indonesia. A sample of 151 districts and cities on the Indonesian island of Sumatra were used in this quantitative analysis. The use of cluster sampling due to the implementation of accrual accounting based on the government regulation No. 71 of 2010 is applied in all districts/cities in Sumatra and has the same characteristics. The data analysis technique used in this study is a multiple linear regression with the SPSS test tool. The results reveal that factors influencing the financial statements disclosure is influenced by financial conditions (β = 0.095; p < 0.05), financial independence (β = 0.069; p < 0.05), and political competition (β = 0.038; p < 0.05). Overall, the results show a strong conclusion regarding the factors that affect the financial statements of the Indonesian government. The findings of this investigation can be a useful consideration for local governments in improving the quality of their external communications and improving public governance.
Dependability of water disposal systems of major cities
Authors: Baranov L. A. , Yermolin Yu. A.
Published: June 2022

The Aim of the paper is to develop an analytical procedure for calculating the dependability indicator of a specific tree-like transporting network, i.e., the water disposal system of a major city.

Methods. It is suggested using the relative volume of sewage water released from a sewage system into the environment as the result of the failure of the former’s components as the measure of dependability. This paper presents a simple and convenient method for calculating such volume. The method is based on the representation of a tree-like sewage network as a combination of Y fragments referred to as structural elements. Every such element is formally replaced with its pseudo equivalent with a failure rate calculated assuming that the volumes of untreated waste water released by actual and fictitious elements are equal. A consistent application of this approach reduces the problem of estimation of the volume of released waste water to elementary subproblems that are solved using probability methods.

Results. The problem of identifying the operational dependability indicator comes down to a recurrent stepwise procedure for equalization of Y fragments of the network, at each step of which the calculation data from the preceding step are used as the input data. Each such step, starting from the entry network, leads to another (virtual) network, for which the procedure repeats. The equalization process ends when the original network is represented by only one pseudo element, for which the dependability indicator is defined in an elementary way.

Conclusion. The authors developed a convenient method for calculating the operational dependability indicator of a tree-like sewer network of a major city. Some practical problems are referred to that can be solved using the proposed method. Future lines of research in the domain were identified.
Improving the efficiency of estimation of the dependability indicators of various test plans of homogeneous product
Authors: Mikhailov V. S.
Published: June 2022

Improving the efficiency of comparison of various test plans for homogeneous products is based on the use of the efficiency criterion of biased estimates C( ), where is a certain parameter estimate. The process of selecting efficient biased estimates involves the following: all parameters of the submitted estimates are to be strictly monotone; the estimates with minimal bias A( ) = b2 or close to it are chosen. If, in the process of selection out of the proposed estimates, there is a single unbiased estimate, then the latter is the efficient one. For this estimate to be efficient in the class of unbiased estimates, it is required to prove the Cram r-Rao inequality for such estimate; estimates, for which inequality A = b2 > D is fulfilled, i.e., the bias prevails over the value scatter of such estimate, are excluded; estimates are selected, for which the inequality D/A > 4 is fulfilled, i.e., the estimates, for which the realizations are grouped around the true quantitative value of the estimated parameter from different sides; out of the remaining estimates, the estimate with the minimum bias A( ) = b2 is selected. In case a single estimate with minimum bias A has been selected, such estimate is considered efficient; in case A are equal, the estimate with minimal variance is chosen as the efficient one. As the efficiency criterion of biased estimates, characteristic C( ) = D·b2 is specified. The suggested probability of no-failure (failure) estimates are to be strictly monotone in terms of all parameters and not equal to zero or one.

The Aim of the paper. The paper aims to obtain efficient estimates of the probability of no-failure for the binomial test plan and the test plan with limited time and recovery using the efficiency criterion of biased estimates.

Methods of research. A bias-efficient estimate was found using integral numerical characteristics of estimation accuracy, i.e., total squared bias of the expected realization of a certain estimate off of the examined parameters of the distribution laws, etc.

Conclusions. Bias-efficient estimates were obtained of the probability of no-failure for the binomial test plan and the test plan with limited time and recovery. The obtained probability of no-failure estimates are practically applicable as part of testing and operation of various products not associated with failures.
NeuMF: Predicting Anti-cancer Drug Response Through a Neural Matrix
Factorization Model
Authors: Liu Hui , Yu Jian , Chen Xiangzhi , Zhang Lin
Published: June 2022

Background:

Anti-cancer drug response is urgently required for individualized therapy.
Measurements with wet experiments are costly and time-consuming. Artificial intelligence-based models are currently available for predicting drug response but still have challenges in prediction accuracy

Objective:

Construct a model to predict drug response values for unknown cell lines and analyze drug
potential association properties in sparse data.

Methods:

Propose a Neural Matrix Factorization (NeuMF) framework to help predict the unknown responses of cell lines to drugs. The model uses a deep neural network to figure out drug and cell lines'
latent variables. In NeuMF, the inputs and the parameters of the multi-layer neural network are simultaneously optimized by gradient descent to minimize the reconstruction errors between the predicted and
natural values of the observed entries. Then the unknown entries can be readily recovered by propagating the latent variables to the output layer.

Results:

Experiments on the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) dataset and Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) dataset compare NeuMF with the other three state-of-the-art methods. NeuMF reduces constructing drug or cell line similarity and mines the response matrix itself for correlations in the network, avoiding the inclusion of redundant noise. NeuMF obtained drug averaged PCC_sr of 0.83 and 0.84 on both datasets. It demonstrates that NeuMF substantially improves the prediction. Some essential parameters in NeuMF, such as the strategy of global effect removal and the scales of the input layer, are also discussed. Finally, case studies have shown that NeuMF can better learn the latent characteristics of drugs, e.g., Irinotecan and Topotecan are found to act on the same pathway TOP1. The conclusions are in line with some existing biological findings.

Hyperglycaemic Metabolic Complications of Ischemic Brain: Current
Therapeutics, Anti-Diabetics and Stem Cell Therapy
Authors: Chavda Vishal , Patel Snehal
Published: June 2022

Stroke is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients. Diabetes alters
the endothelial function and disrupts brain pathways, resulting in a variety of systemic metabolic complications.
Diabetics not only have impaired neurotransmission, but also have progressive neurodegeneration,
which leads to long-term neurological complications. Diabetes risk factors and physiology
alter the frequency and severity of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, necessitating more
hospitalizations. Stroke and diabetes have a mutually reinforcing relationship that worsens their outcomes.
Diabetes has far-reaching systemic consequences for human physiology as a metabolic syndrome.
As a result, diabetic stroke patients require dual-therapeutics with dual protection. Scientific
researchers have made tremendous progress in diabetes-related stroke and its therapeutics over the last
few decades. We have summarised diabetic brain and associated risk factors, co-morbidities, biomarkers,
and hyperglycemia-associated neurovascular insult and cognitive demur. In addition to
providing an overview of the effects of hyperglycaemia on brain physiology, this article aims to summarise
the evidence from current glucose-lowering treatment, recent advances in stroke therapeutics as
well as exploring stem cell therapy in the management of diabetes-associated stroke.

Published: June 2022

Photoluminescence, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy are used to study electronic and atomic structure of n-InP(100) surfaces treated with different sulfide solutions. It is shown that the sulfide treatment causes removal of the native oxide layer from the semiconductor surface and
formation of the passivating layer consisting of In−S chemical bonds with the structure dependent on the solution composition and atomic arrangement at the initial surface of the semiconductor. This is accompanied by an increase in photoluminescence intensity and narrowing of the surface depletion layer. Atomic structure of the passivating layer determines the total dipole that modifies the depth distribution of the bands potentials and thus the surface electronic structure.

In paper the influence of parameters of inductively coupled chloropentafluoroethane plasma on the rate and characteristics of gallium arsenide etching was studied. Etched GaAs profiles by white light interferometry and scanning electron microscopy were investigated. It turned out that the process rate does not depend on freon flow, but forward and inductive power, as well as pressure determined. In this case, when the power of the plasma generator increase, the surface morphology changes significantly, that manifests itself in roughness increase and the detection of defects on GaAs and mask. Carrying out a process at low pressure leads to the deposition of single large inhomogeneities on the substrate. The transition from pulsed to continuous etching is accompanied by deterioration in the anisotropy of a process due to the polymer layer deposition on side walls.

Temperature dependences of the longitudinal resistance and heat capacity of silicon carbide epitaxial films grown on monocrystalline silicon substrates by the method of coordinated substitution of atoms are investigated. Peculiarities in the behavior of these dependences have been found at temperatures equal to 56°C, 76°C, 122°C and 130°C. The observed peculiarities of the behavior of heat capacity and longitudinal resistance, considering appearance of a giant value of diamagnetism previously discovered in the samples at these temperatures, are interpreted as phase transitions of charge carriers into a coherent (superconducting, if we consider diamagnetism) state.
Promoting Physical Activity Among University Students During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial (Preprint)
Authors: Goncalves Aurelie , Bernal Caroline , Korchi Karim , Nogrette Maxence , Deshayes Maxime , Philippe Antony G , Gisclard Béatrice , Charbonnier Elodie
Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, sanitary context and e-learning have greatly modified student lifestyles and led to deteriorations in their mental health. An increase in anxiety and depressive symptoms and sedentary behaviors, reduction in physical activity, and a stronger tendency to move toward unhealthy diet have been demonstrated. This finding highlights the need for innovative interventions to promote healthy lifestyle among students.

OBJECTIVE

This research protocol aims to evaluate the effects of an intervention program on the lifestyle and psychological state of students.

METHODS

Students from University of Nîmes were recruited and randomly assigned to 1 of 2 following conditions: an intervention group and a control group. Participants in the intervention group were engaged in an 8-week physical activity program. Prior to the start of the program, design-based innovative workshops were conducted with participants to ensure that the program was co-constructed by the users and met their specific needs. Students in the control group did not receive any intervention. For each group, measures of physical activity, sedentary time, anthropometric data, sleep, physical condition, and psychological variables (eg, anxiety, depression, motivation, body appreciation, perceived control, well-being) were conducted at baseline and 9 weeks later.

RESULTS

A total of 110 participants were initially included. Reporting of the results is projected for the spring of 2022.

CONCLUSIONS

It is anticipated that this innovative intervention co-constructed by pairs will promote a healthier lifestyle and psychological health in students. There is every reason to believe that a mobilized co-construction approach is a promising strategy to limit unhealthy habits and promote physical activity while increasing motivation. The development and evaluation of interventions to address the specific needs of university students is essential and could be transferred to other vulnerable populations such as people with chronic diseases or older people.

Psychological Impact on Family of Transgender and Non-Conforming (TGNC) Children in Alex Gino’s “George” (Novel)
Authors: Kour Navleen
Published: June 2022

The paper is an attempt to contemplate the youth’s emotional, mental, romantic, and sexual orientation and its psychological influence on the members of the family. In novel, there is a discussion about sexual orientation, preferences for the minority individuals are somewhat or merely focused on the same sex. Writers like Christopher Isherwood, Evelyn Waugh, James Baldwin, Mary Renault have provided us with illuminating experience in their prose style on issues related to LGPTQ. The paper has accentuated the repertoire of qualitative literary review analysis, including qualitative data on the experience of parents of TGNC children. The paper delves with the dilemma of identification of one’s own sex and sense of self worth. The study focuses on the implications for transgender, gay, bisexual and lesbian youth and their family members’ psychological health and well being. Parental rejection and acceptance is the main concern. The importance of parents in the lives of youth is unassailable beginning with the birth of the child and affecting all relationships. Family Communication is an indispensable component when we talk about accepting and disclosing our hidden existence and feelings in front of our family member, whether parents or siblings. The main objective of the paper is to conceptualise the reactions of parents to the disclosure of their child’s identity, when one has been in disguise, ranging from acceptance to rejection: What are the consequences? How are they going to react? How are they going to manage stress level? How are they going to balance and maintain equality between the child and other children? Will they be able to appreciate their child’s heroism and endurance for revealing his/her true identity?

Authors: Thuy Dao Thanh
Published: June 2022

Urbanization, industrialization and transformation of livelihoods of peri-urban communities are issues of concern for many urban areas in the country. The process of adjusting administrative boundaries has turned the peri-urban rural areas into inner cities due to the requirements of the expansion of urban space. Villages change towards industrialization, urbanization, and modernization. Followed by cultural change, many new factors appear intermingled or superimposed on the traditional culture layer. In that drastic change trend, Dong Son villages are no exception to the rule. The process of transforming the livelihood model of people living in peri-urban areas in general and Thanh Hoa urban areas, in particular, is taking place strongly. How this transformation is associated with sustainable livelihoods has not only received special attention from experts and scientists but also received the attention of managers and policymakers.

In recent years, international trade in Maltese half-blood (Citrus sinensis) has increased. The rootstock's potential defines the fruit's characteristics in the eco-system where it is developed. As a result, in order to achieve the demands of the Maltese half-blood fruit market, it is critical to understand the effects of the rootstock and its role in fruit and juice quality. The Maltese half-blood was grafted onto four rootstocks and the fruit and juice quality parameters were evaluated. The obtained results revealed that rootstocks have a significant impact on the peel tickness of the fruits, as well as the acidity and total soluble solids of the juices. Indeed, the rootstocks significantly impacted the quality of the fruits and the juices in their environment. It was found that C35 citrange is a good rootstock for Maltese half-blood variety. Therefore, these on-site rootstock evaluation effects should assist local farmers in selecting the best rootstocks for their Maltese half-blood citrus cultivar based on the cultivation site's specific climatic and edaphic conditions.

Abstract: The aim of our paper is design and fabrication of portable concrete mixture machine. Mixer widely used to make a concrete mixture which used to building construction and other industrial application such as concrete block, pipe, sheets, etc. As for all materials, the performance of concrete is determined by its microstructure. To determine the mixing method best suited for a specific application, factors to be considered include: location of the construction site. the concrete mixture machines which are currently available in the market is heavy and having big capacity of concrete mixing. Continuously and easy handling, we have fabricated this concrete mixture machine. The construction and building industries are expanding on a daily basis as a result of increase in human population and continually demand for shelter. Concrete which comprises mainly of sand, cement and gravel is an important component required for construction of houses and roads. However, most operation of mixing concrete in Nigeria is done manually as a result of lack of insufficient machinery and high importation cost. In this research, I carried out the design of a low-cost concrete mixing machine. The materials used in this research work are as follow; sand, gravel, water, mild steel, hopper, electric motor, shaft, bearing, V-belt, angle bar, mild steel plate, bolts and nuts, etc. In other to achieve a good design, feasibility studies, and preliminary tests were carried out. The materials selected for this design were justified. Keywords: portable mixer, design model, mixing volume, power, torque, belt tension

Published: June 2022

Abstract: The explosive growth of demands on huge process imposes a crucial burden on computation, storage, and communication in data centers, that so incurs wide operational expenditure to data center suppliers. Therefore, Price decrease has become Associate in Nursing rising issue for the longer term huge data era. All totally different from customary cloud services, one in each of the foremost choices of huge data services is that the tight coupling between data and computation as computation tasks is also conducted provided that the corresponding data is obtainable. As a result, 3 factors, i.e., task assignment, data placement and data movement, deeply the operational expenditure of data centers. Throughout this paper, we tend to tend to unit of measurement meant to see the worth decrease downside via a joint improvement of these three factors for big data services in geo-distributed data centers. To elucidate the task completion time with the thought of every data transmission and computation, we tend to tend to propose a two-dimensional stochastic process and derive the standard task completion time in closed-form. Moreover, we tend to tend to model the matter as a mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) and propose economical resolution to correct it. The high efficiency of our proposal is valid by thorough simulation primarily based studies Keywords— Nonlinear Programming, Big Data, Computer Centres, Integer Programming, Minimisation, Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming, Cost Minimization, Data Centers, Big Data Services, Operational Expenditure, Task Assignment, Big Data
