For ensuring fire safety, it is required to bring the legal and regulatory and regulatory-technical base in the field of fire safety in line with the up-to-date requirements based on the scientific research and development. However, the application of the equirements for the provision of primary fire extinguishing equipment (portable fire extinguisher) to the premises of industrial buildings and the calculation estimates according to the proven methods is impossible in the on-line mode and in the conditions of time pressure. Estimates regarding the equipment and efficient use of the portable fire extinguishers at the initial stage of a fire allowed to formulate the information and analytical support for equipping premises in the industrial buildings with primary fire extinguishing equipment at the initial stage of a fire. Developed information and analytical support make it possible to justify the minimum required number of portable fire extinguishers, as well as the efficiency of use, considering their technical characteristics. And for its practical implementation, an algorithm was developed that allows an assessment of the provision of portable fire extinguishers for the premises of the building. Practical application of the information and analytical support for the provision of primary fire extinguishing equipment (portable fire extinguisher) in specific situations allows to make prompt, reasonable and effective management decisions. It also allows assessing safe use of the portable fire extinguishers by the personnel of the enterprise when extinguishing a fire in the industrial buildings, avoiding litigation, removing administrative barriers, improving the scientific and experimental and educational and material base of the scientific and educational organizations, forensic expert institutions, switching to more reasonable engineering and technical, organizational measures in terms of providing the object of protection with primary fire extinguishing means.

Imam Mahdi, Antichrist Or A Promised Saviour Besides Jesus Christ?
Authors: khanghah Reza
Published: August 2022

Purpose: In this article, we discussed whether Imam Mahdi is an Antichrist or a Promised Saviour Besides Jesus Christ and other topics. This article attempts to deal with the concepts "Occultation", "Imamat", "Mahdaviat", "Mahdism" and Who is Antichrist that prophesied both in Islam and Christianity. Also, this research was conducted to answer and clarify three questions that stated in the Introduction section.

Methods: We performed our methods in 4 stages: Identifying studies, Selection of Studies, Collating Studies, Reporting results.

Results: One of the statements of those who say that Imam Mahdi is the Antichrist is that he is not included in other religious books at all and his name is not mentioned in the Quran and the Muslims forcibly accepted him as their Messiah, but in response to these people, it is not the Muslims who are forcibly introducing the Imam Mahdi as a savior, but vice versa. The Quran contains many verses that mention Imam Mahdi. Not only the Quran, but also other religious books mention him, even with the titles and names mentioned in the Qur'an.

Conclusion: The coming of Imam Mahdi and Jesus Christ is one of the sure promises of God, and these two saviors will appear with God's help and the will of the people. They fill the earth with justice and establish the government of God. We hope this article will take an important step in acquainting people with Imam Mahdi and Jesus Christ and paving the ground for their reappearance.

Authors: khanghah Reza
Published: August 2022

Purpose: In this article, we will discuss the narrations and prophecies that exist in Islam, both in Shia, Sunni and other religions regarding Imam Mahdi. This article also attempts to deal with Holy Fatima and her characteristics. Also, we will show that Imam Mahdi is mentioned not only in other religions but also in other books. Also, this research was conducted to answer and clarify three questions that stated in the Introduction section.

Methods: We performed our methods in 4 stages: Identifying studies, Selection of Studies, Collating Studies, Reporting results.

Results: According to Abrahamic religions, a person will reappear and establish fairness and justice with the help of God, who is called Imam Mahdi and based on the opinion of Christians, he is Christ. If the Shiites, may Allah help them in His obedience, had fulfilled their covenant with united hearts, then there would have been no delay in meeting the Promised Saviour.

Conclusion: The concept of Imam Mahdi is universal and cannot just be rejected. The appearance of Imam Mahdi will coincide with the coming back of Jesus Christ. Imam Mahdi, with the assistance of the Messiah, will ensure the completion and practical actualization of the mission of the Prophet Muhammad. The Hidden Imam wrote to Abu-Omar Ameri: The Prophet’s daughter (Holy Fatima) is a nice model for me. We hope this article will take an important step in acquainting people with Imam Mahdi and Jesus Christ and paving the ground for their reappearance.

Distanciamento e cancelamento
Authors: Bernardes Antonio
Published: August 2022

O cancelamento e distanciamento são experiências muitas características da contemporaneidade. A primeira está mais relacionada às vivências pelas relações sociais virtuais e a segunda, às restrições sanitárias preconizadas para conter a transmissão do vírus da Covid-19. Quando olhamos mais deperto, percebemos como a experiência de cancelamento se aproxima da indiferença e como o distanciamento social a aprofundou, pois as relações que antes também eram presenciais, passaram a ser, majoritariamente, virtuais. Entendemos que essas experiências estão imbricadas, não somente uma com outra, mas também às relações presenciais e às virtuais, ressignificando as nossas experiências a ponto de não ser possível dissociá-las. É nesse sentido que desenvolvemos este manuscrito, considerando aindissociabilidade entre as experiências de distanciamento, cancelamento e indiferença, assim como das relações presenciais e virtuais e como esse fluxo de significações constitui o Nós e o lugares. Para ilustrar essas experiências, utilizaremos como exemplo alguns causos do reality show Big Brother Brasil 21.
Research on Developing a Size System and Designing Shoe Lasts for Men with Diabetes in Vietnam
Authors: BUI Van-Huan , CAO Thi-Kien-Chung , PHAN Duy-Nam
Published: August 2022

This paper presents the method and results of developing a shoe last sizing system on the basis of the foot parameter system, designing shoe lasts for men with diabetes in Vietnam. Diabetic patients often have foot complications and need to use extra depth shoes or custom shoes to protect their feet and prevent foot ulcers. The parameters of 5 shoe last sizes by length and 3 sizes by width according to the French sizing system have been developed. The results show that the shoe last parameters for men with diabetes are much larger than those for healthy men, especially the ball girth and width are larger by about 20 mm and 5 mm, respectively. Afterward, shoe lasts were designed and modified using 3D CAD tools for style, fit and comfort specifically suited for men with diabetes. Using shoe last design software, 3D printing technology to design and fabricate a shoe last, the proposed approach proved the viability of designing and manufacturing extra depth shoes for men with diabetes in Vietnam.
3D Modelling of Customized Lasts Based on Anthropometric Data Acquired from 3D Foot Scanning – One Case Study
Authors: COSTEA Mariana , MIHAI Aura , SEUL Arina
Published: August 2022

Designing and manufacturing personalized lasts are the first steps in obtaining the right fitted footwear for various users, especially for sports or/and medical purposes. The accurate dimensional relationship between foot and last represents the key element for this activity. The critical shape of the last should always be determined by the shape of the foot and the cumulative relationship between lengths, widths, heights and girths, whatever method is used. Some corrections and constraints must always be considered because the shoe-last is not identical to the foot. The foot anthropometric measurements are modified based on biomechanical constraints and technological limitations and they are interactively transformed into last’s dimensions by using 3D modelling. The present study brings together the modern scanning technique with the new methodology for modifying a reference last, and it is aimed to explore the philosophy of re-designing functional lasts. It also tests and highlights the limits of the actual methodology for shoe-last virtual prototyping based on anthropometric data acquired from a commercially available 3D foot scanning system.
The Use of the Fuzzy Inference System in Determining the Quality of Goatskin as Raw Material for the Leather Industry
Authors: MUTIAR Sri , KASIM Anwar , EMRIADI Emriadi , ASBEN Alfi
Published: August 2022

Leather products are affected by the quality of the raw hide, the pre-treatment, and the tanning process. Furthermore, some leather products use quality goatskins with the right determination as raw materials. This study aims to determine the quality of goatskin through the use of Fuzzy Logic science. It was conducted using the Sugeno Fuzzy Inference System (FIS), while data analysis was carried out through the Matlab R2018a program. The criteria for using this method were the factors that affected the quality of raw goatskin such as thickness, length of the backline, skin area, number of scratches on the skin, number of holes, presence of boils, lice bumps, and hair loss. The results of the analysis showed that Sugeno FIS could be used to help determine the quality of goatskin with a good accuracy level with a MAPE value of 18%. Furthermore, the FIS method could be used as an appropriate modeling system for determining the quality of goatskin as a raw material for the leather tanning industry.

Authors: NUGRAHA Aditya Wahyu , SUPARNO Ono , INDRASTI Nastiti Siswi , HOERUDIN Hoerudin
Published: August 2022

Enzyme is one of the ingredients used in several tanning processes such as bating. Bating is generally conducted under alkaline conditions, but it can also be carried out under acidic conditions. This study aimed to evaluate mechanical and physical properties of wet blue following bating conducted under acidic conditions treated with enzymes synthesized by R. oligosporus compared to those of the conventional process. This study was arranged on a completely randomized design with a single factor, i.e., five levels of enzyme activity (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10 U mL-1). The results showed that the use of enzymes from R. oligosporus influenced positively mechanical properties of the wet blue produced. Increasing levels of enzyme activity produced significantly higher tear strength and lower elongation at break values. No significant differences in tensile strength were observed following applications of both the synthesized and conventional enzymes. The synthesized enzyme was best applied at an activity level of 5 U mL-1 producing leather with good tear strength (55.40 ± 5.49 N mm-1) and elongation at break (45.63 ± 4.17 %) values, which were significantly different from those of 0 U mL-1, but not significantly different from those of 10 U mL-1 and the conventional process. Mechanical properties of the leather produced met the standard values for goat/sheep leather jacket as specified in Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 4593:2011. The results suggest that the synthesized enzyme from R. oligosporus can potentially replace the conventional enzyme commonly used in the bating process.

Three Arguments against Constitutive Norm Accounts of Assertion
Authors: Cull Matthew J.
Published: August 2022

In this article I introduce constitutive norm accounts of assertion, and then give three arguments for giving up on the constitutive norm project. First I begin with an updated version of MacFarlane’s Boogling argument. My second argument is that the ‘overriding response’ that constitutive norm theorists offer to putative counterexamples is unpersuasive and dialectically risky. Third and finally, I suggest that constitutive norm theorists, in appealing to the analogy of games, actually undermine their case that they can make sense of assertions that fail to follow their putative constitutive norm. These considerations, I suggest, together show that the constitutive norm project founders not because any single norm is not descriptively correct of our assertion practices, but rather, because giving a constitutive norm as the definition of assertion alone is insufficient.
Higher-Order Skolem’s Paradoxes and the Practice of Mathematics: a Note
Authors: Hosseini Davood , Kimiagari Mansooreh
Published: August 2022

We will formulate some analogous higher-order versions of Skolem’s paradox and assess the generalizability of two solutions for Skolem’s paradox to these paradoxes: the textbook approach and that of Bays (2000). We argue that the textbook approach to handle Skolem’s paradox cannot be generalized to solve the parallel higher-order paradoxes, unless it is augmented by the claim that there is no unique language within which the practice of mathematics can be formalized. Then, we argue that Bays’ solution to the original Skolem’s paradox, unlike the textbook solution, can be generalized to solve the higher-order paradoxes without any implication about the possibility or order of a language in which mathematical practice is to be formalized.
In Defence of Discrete Plural Logic (or How to Avoid Logical Overmedication When Dealing with Internally Singularized Pluralities)
Authors: Picazo Gustavo
Published: August 2022

In recent decades, plural logic has established itself as a well-respected member of the extensions of first-order classical logic. In the present paper, I draw attention to the fact that among the examples that are commonly given in order to motivate the need for this new logical system, there are some in which the elements of the plurality in question are internally singularized (e.g. ‘Whitehead and Russell wrote Principia Mathematica’), while in others they are not (e.g. ‘Some philosophers wrote Principia Mathematica’). Then, building on previous work, I point to a subsystem of plural logic in which inferences concerning examples of the first type can be adequately dealt with. I notice that such a subsystem (here called ‘discrete plural logic’) is in reality a mere variant of first-order logic as standardly formulated, and highlight the fact that it is axiomatizable while full plural logic is not. Finally, I urge that greater attention be paid to discrete plural logic and that discrete plurals are not used in order to motivate the introduction of full-fledged plural logic—or, at least, not without remarking that they can also be adequately dealt with in a considerably simpler system.

Published: August 2022

When designing structures, it is often necessary to re-analyse a structure that is different in some parts from the original one. As real structures are often complex, their analysis is therefore very challenging. In such cases, reanalysis methods are advantageously used. The aim of this paper is to approach the problem of solving the constructions using reanalysis method in which the time taken in solving algebraic equations is reduced. In particular, the purpose of this work is to demonstrate on a chosen system the time savings and the advantages of the chosen direct efficient reanalysis method for a given design problem. A basic condition for meeting these criteria is the modernization of computational procedures in the mechanics of compliant solids.

Published: August 2022

Introduction

Escherichia coli is present in the normal intestinal flora but some strains can cause intestinal and extraintestinal diseases, and research on its presence in food of animal origin is in the interests of public health. This study was designed to characterise E. coli strains according to their origin, their carriage of virulence genes specific for certain pathogroups, and phylogenetic group affiliation.

Material and Methods

The study was carried out on 100 E. coli strains isolated from food samples of various animal origin as well as pig and cattle carcass swabs. Isolation of the strains was performed using two methods. One method included colony count and the other an overnight enrichment of the samples. Isolation was followed by DNA extraction and detection of virulence genes and phylogenetic group with conventional and multiplex PCRs.

Results

In this study, the most prevalent gene was EAST1 (20%) and strains which carried it were identified as enteroadherent E. coli. Other pathogroups were represented in lower incidences. Phylogenetic group analysis revealed the prevalence of the A and B1 groups, with B1 mainly present in game and cattle strains, while the majority of pig and poultry strains were assigned to group A.

Conclusion

This study provides an overview of the presence of potentially pathogenic strains and E. coli phylogenetic groups in Croatia, for which the data are limited. Further microbiological and molecular research is required to examine the epidemiological situation in the country.

Authors: Agersnap Thea Nørregaard , Hougaard Esben , Jensen Morten Berg , Thastum Mikael
Published: August 2022

Background

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is one of the most common anxiety disorders among adolescents. It is associated with extensive distress and negative long-term consequences. Generic cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is one of the preferred treatments for anxiety disorders, but it has shown poorer outcome for adolescents with SAD than for other anxiety disorders.

Aim

As preparation for a randomized controlled trial the aim of the present study was to examine the feasibility of an adjusted diagnosis-specific CBT group intervention for adolescents with SAD, and provide preliminary information on adolescent and family outcomes.

Method

Thirteen adolescents (age 12-17 years) diagnosed with SAD received a group therapy version of the Cool Kids Anxiety Program, Social Enhanced (CK-E), a program developed at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. The treatment is a diagnosis-specific manualized CBT treatment for adolescents with SAD. Semi-diagnostic interviews and questionnaires were completed at baseline, post, 3-month follow-up and 1-year follow-up.

Results

Thirteen adolescents participated with no drop-outs. Most families attended all 10 intervention sessions. The families were generally satisfied with the treatment and would recommend it to others in need. Preliminary outcomes showed that participants had marked improvements in their anxiety symptoms and life interference, with significant medium to large baseline-post effect sizes durable at 1-year follow-up. Two of the adolescents were free of their SAD diagnosis at 3-month follow-up.

Conclusion

Results from this feasibility study indicate that the Danish-translated and revised version of Cool Kids Anxiety Program - Social Enhanced could be a feasible intervention for Danish adolescents with SAD. The intervention will be investigated further in a randomized controlled trial.

Published: August 2022

This research investigates the influence of financial reporting quality, tax avoidance, and debt maturity on investment efficiency in Indonesia. This study also examines the role of corporate social responsibility disclosure as a moderating variable. Samples of manufacturing companies listed in Indonesia between 2014 and 2019 were selected (414 observations). Using panel regression, this study unveiled a positive effect of financial report quality, while a negative effect of tax avoidance and debt maturity on investment efficiency. Corporate social responsibility disclosure fails to moderate the impact of financial report quality and tax avoidance on investment efficiency. In contrast, corporate social responsibility disclosure strengthens the influence of debt maturity on investment efficiency. This study suggests that the Indonesian Tax Authority needs to improve its supervision on Indonesian companies to suppress tax avoidance by companies that may reduce investment efficiency.

Published: August 2022

Objetivo: Relatar um caso clínico de artralgia associada a um deslocamento de disco com redução, conduzido por alunos e professores na clínica da Liga de Dor e DTM do Centro Universitário Braz Cubas, através de terapias conservadoras não invasivas e um ajuste oclusão. Relato de caso: Paciente do sexo feminino, 63 anos, compareceu ao atendimento queixando-se de dor constante em ambas as articulações temporomandibulares, sendo esse sintoma mais intenso do lado direito. Ela relata ter tido, há seis meses, um travamento fechado. O critério diagnóstico para as Disfunções Tempororomabidulares (DC/TMD) foi aplicado, fechando o diagnóstico de artralgia e deslocamento de disco com redução na ATM direita. No exame intraoral, foi observado uma giroversão e extrusão do dente 17, que apesar de bem inserido, impossibilitava a sua inclusão na placa estabilizadora, que foi realizada na arcada superior e adotada como tratamento, juntamente com o aconselhamento. Com isso, houve uma considerável redução da sintomatologia, que apenas foi zerada, após um ajuste oclusal realizado sob a restauração de amálgama do dente 17. Discussão: Apesar da oclusão não ser um fator de risco importante para as DTMs e que ajustes oclusais não são formas efetivas de tratamento, nesse caso um ajuste foi realizado apenas sobre uma restauração de amálgama para tentar amenizar essa condição, garantir um conforto durante as funções excêntricas da paciente e impedir um maior prejuízo periodontal. Conclusão: A terapia realizada foi capaz de gerar uma remissão total dos sintomas, o que implicou em melhor qualidade de vida para essa paciente.

تعتبر نظرية الأعمال اليومية  أو العقود الضرورية من النظريات المهمة في القانون المدني، لأنها تركز على شريحة كبيرة من المجتمع ألا وهم القاصرين الغير بالغين سن الرشد. حيث تمنح هذه النظرية القاصر أهلية كاملة لإبرام عقد صحيح نافذ، إذا تعلق العقد بسلعة أو خدمة ضرورية في حياة الصغير. وتحاول هذه الدراسة تسليط الضوء على هذه النظرية بالرجوع إلى جذورها الراسخة في القانون الإنجليزي، وتسليط الضوء على التعديل الأخير للقانون المدني الفرنسي لسنة 2016، والذي نص على هذه النظرية بإسم الأعمال اليومية. كما تقوم الدراسة بتسليط الضوء على موقف المششرع العراقي من هذه النظرية. وتوصلت الدراسة إلى أن نظرية العقود الضرورية تعد من النظريات الحديثة والتي يجب على المشرع العراقي الأخذ بها في قانونه المدني أسوة بالقوانين الحديثة، حيث أن هذه النظرية لا تتعارض مع مبدأ حماية القاصرين. إتخذت الدراسة المنهج التحليلي في عرض وتحليل المواد القانونية ذات الصلة، وكما اتخذت المنهج المقارن لتقييم موقف القوانين المدنية من موضوع العقود الضرورية .
Expanding Interplanetary Transfer Opportunities from Geostationary Transfer Orbits via Earth Synchronous Orbits
Authors: Ito Daichi , Pushparaj Nishanth , Kawakatsu Yasuhiro
Published: August 2022

Geostationary transfer orbits (GTOs) are geocentric orbits widely considered for kick-stage operations of satellites for deep space missions. A piggyback spacecraft departing from GTOs requires a low transfer cost. The type of GTO and launch timings of piggyback missions, on the other hand, are typically determined by the primary mission that carried the piggyback spacecraft. This research introduces a new transfer strategy that coordinates piggyback spacecraft’s departure timing from Earth to deep space via an Earth synchronous orbit (ESO) after departure from a GTO. It also enables the spacecraft to change its velocity direction by introducing Earth gravity assists. Connecting several GTOs and interplanetary trajectories via ESOs reduces the [Formula: see text] required for the transfers. It leads to using transfer opportunities previously considered unsuitable for missions or miniaturizing the kick motor. As a result, ESOs allow for a broader launch opportunity for deep space piggyback probes. In addition, the feasibility of ESOs is shown numerically by comparing direct and ESO-assisted transfers from GTOs to Mars with the required [Formula: see text].
Improved Model for Flexible Flapping Wings: Considering Spanwise Twisting and Bending
Authors: Yang Feng Liu , Chen Long , Wang Yan Qing
Published: August 2022

Insect wings and biomimetic wings in flapping-wing micro air vehicles (FWMAVs) are flexible and subject to passive deformations, including spanwise twisting and bending. This raises a typical bilateral fluid–structure interaction (FSI) issue, which is conventionally solved based on combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and computational solid dynamics (CSD) methods. To reduce the computational cost of this FSI issue while maintaining a reasonable accuracy, a theoretical model with improved adaptability is proposed here. The improvement results from the consideration of spanwise bending: the distribution of which is formulated by a quadratic polynomial. The aerodynamic force is approximated by a predictive quasi-steady aerodynamic model based on the blade element theory. The FSI iteration at a time step is converged within 0.5 s in our model, whereas a traditional CFD–CSD solution takes about 30 s. Compared to our previous model, the current model can better match the experimental measurements of insect wings. Further analysis reveals that considering spanwise bending affects the stiffness design of flexible flapping wings quantitatively. To maintain a high lift efficiency, the structural stiffness of the wing should be appropriately decreased. Our model provides a refined tool for the wing design in FWMAVs and can promote the development of FWMAVs.

Many problems associated with the engineering technology field can be transformed into Fredholm integral equations of the first kind to achieve problem-solving strategies. In this paper, the iterative kernel technique was reformulated to treat the numerical solution for the system of Fredholm integral equations of the first kind for the degenerate kernel. Three new theorems have been proposed and proved. This technique was programmed via Matlab and achieved a good result.
Performance Against Cavity Index and Discharge Coefficient between Broad and Sharp Crested Weirs
Authors: A Abo A.
Published: August 2022

The purpose of this research is examining the performance of rectangular broad and sharp crested weirs in terms of cavity index and discharge coefficient. For this purpose, a computational fluid dynamics CFD code FLUENT is applied. Firstly, the code verified by applies on the experiments work of Hagre et al 1994 the results show excellent agreements between CFD and Hager et al 1994. Secondly the code applied on both broad and sharp crested weirs. The results demonstrate that broad crested weirs have a lower discharge coefficient than sharp crested weirs, implying that broad crested weirs have a lower ability to discharge flow than sharp crested weirs. While the cavity index of a broad crested weir is lower than that of a sharp crested weir, the risk of cavitation is lower for a broad crested weir. Finally, designers should use caution when deciding which type of crest to use in their designs.
