THE RISE AND DEMISE OF GERMAN STATISM
Authors: Kvistad Gregg
Published: June 2024

German statism as a political ideology has been the subject of many historical studies. Whereas most of these focus on theoretical texts, cultural works, and vague "traditions", this study understands German statism as a functioning logic of political membership, a logic that has helped to determine who is "in" and who is "out" with regard to the German political community. Tracing statism from the early 19th century through German unification and beyond in the 1990s, the author argues that, with its central concern for a political loyalty that is vetted "from above," it historically served the function of stabilizing the political order and containing democratic mobilization. Beginning in the 1960s, however, a mobilized German democratic consciousness "from below" gradually rejected statism as anachronistic for informing political and policy debate, and German political institutions began to respond to kind.
THE JACOBIN CLUBS IN THE FRENCH REVOLUTION, 1793-1795
Authors: Kennedy Michael L.
Published: June 2024

A pendant to two well-received books by the same author on the departmental clubs during the early years of the Revolution, this book is the product of thirty years of scholarly study, including archival research in Paris and in more than seventy departments in France. It focuses on the twenty-eight months from May 1793 to August 1795, a period spanning the Federalist Revolt, the Terror, and the Thermidorian Reaction. The Federalist Revolt, in which many clubs were involved, had momentous consequences for all of them and was, in the local setting, the principal cause of the Reign of Terror, a period in which more than 5,300 communes had clubs that reached the zenith of their power and influence, engaging in a myriad of political, administrative, judicial, religious, economic, social, and war-related activities. The book ends with their decline and final dissolution by a decree of the Convention in Paris.
PRESERVING ORDER AMID CHAOS
Authors: Paige John Rhodes
Published: June 2024

To say that education in Africa is under stress is all to obvious. News reports from that continent seem to describe only war and violence, poverty and malnutrition, corruption and mismanagement, or natural disasters that destroy or threaten already frail infrastructures - most news from Africa is bad news. When an education system survives in a country like Uganda, long subjected to the whims of despotic leadership, it warrants an investigation. This book tells the story of four senior secondary schools during a time of war and intractable social conflict, examining a complex topic through multiple perspectives such as documentary history, oral history, ethnography, and organization theory. The author develops a broad picture of the Amin/Obote years and the accompanying political and social chaos in Uganda, while at the same time filling in the crucial details essential for developing an understanding of school survival in the Kaborole District. The author's intensive field work gives this study a unique dimension: by preserving a record of African voices - students, teachers, parents, alumni, board members, community leaders - a rich tableau of theh local conditions for school survival emerges. At the same time the discussion is situated within the larger Ugandan historical and political context, thus offering an excellent example of the application of multiple research perspectives to a complex social, cultural and political setting.
REFUGEE POLICY IN SUDAN 1967-1984
Authors: Karadawi Ahmed
Published: June 2024

Based on the work of Ahmed Karadawi, Refugee Policy in Sudan discusses Sudanese government policy towards the refugee flows from Ethiopia into the Eastern Region of Sudan in theperiod 1967 to 1984, arguing that there were two underlying assumptions behind successive governments' policies: that refugees were considered a security threat and a socio-economic burden. In response,the policies incorporated the Organization of African Unity norms, which offered a platform to depoliticise the refugees, equally with the international conventions relating to refugees, which assured the externalization of responsibility and access to aid. This prescription, however, ignored the dynamism of the conflict that continued to generate refugees - and, as numbers accumulated in Sudan, the international aid regime did not act as a willing partner of the government. The consequences of a sizeable refugee population revealed a serious conflict of priorities, not only within the Sudanese government of the day, but also between the government and aid donors - thus, the objectives of the government policy were seriously undermined.
FOOD FOR HEALTH, FOOD FOR WEALTH
Authors: Harbottle Lynn
Published: June 2024

Food and eating practices are central to current sociological and anthropological concerns about the body, health, consumption, and identity. This study explores the importance of these themes as they intersect with processes of globalization and cultural production within a specific group of consumers, British Sh'ite Iranians. Through the analysis of the consumption practices of this particular migrant group, this book illustrates how both the nutritional value and symbolic significance of food contribute to its health-giving properties and how gender and ethnic identities are preformed and reinforced through the medium of food-work in public and private spheres. At the same time, as this study demonstrates, migration modifies and transfigures such identities and produces hybrid cultures and cuisines.
NAZISM IN CENTRAL GERMANY
Authors: Szejnmann Claus-Christian W.
Published: June 2024

Most studies on the spread of Nazism in German society before and after 1933 concentrate on the country's western parts. As a result, so the author claims, our overall picture of the situation has been distorted since the eastern areas contained a substantial portion of the population. Neglecting them means that all generalizations about the Nazi period require further testing. This first comprehensive study of Saxony therefore fills a large gap, also in light of the fact that Saxony was one of the most industrialized German regions. It deals with problems of continuity and change in German society during three distinct phases: constitutional monarchy, parliamentary democracy, and dictatorship. The author shows convincingly that it was deep-rooted local traditions that determined the success or failure of Nazism among the local population.

Zastosowanie art. 39 Kodeksu cywilnego w przypadku zbywania (alienacji) nieruchomości przez kościelne osoby prawne
Authors: Grzesiowski Krzysztof
Published: June 2024

W artykule poddano analizie zagadnienie naruszenia zasad reprezentacji kościelnych osób prawnych wynikających z prawa kanonicznego i ich skutku dla zbywania (alienacji) nieruchomości. Celem prowadzonych rozważań było ustalenie zakresu zastosowania znowelizowanego art. 39 Kodeksu cywilnego do kościelnych osób prawnych. Problematyka zbywania nieruchomości przez kościelne osoby prawne z naruszeniem zasad reprezentacji wynikających z Kodeksu Prawa Kanonicznego była już przedmiotem orzecznictwa Sądu Najwyższego i dyskusji w doktrynie, ale większość wypowiedzi została sformułowana przed nowelizacją art. 39 K.c., którego zmieniona treść weszła w życie z dniem 1 marca 2019 r. Dlatego ponownie należało zastanowić się nad skutkami działania organów kościelnych osób prawnych z przekroczeniem umocowania wynikającego z prawa wewnętrznego Kościoła katolickiego. Rozważania zawarte w artykule prowadzone były metodą dogmatycznoprawną. Przeprowadzona analiza wykazała, że znowelizowany art. 39 K.c. znajduje zastosowanie do kościelnych osób prawnych. Umowy dotyczące zbywania (alienacji) nieruchomości zawierane przez kościelne osoby prawne w przypadku naruszenia zakresu kompetencji organu oraz sposobu reprezentacji wynikających z prawa kanonicznego będą dotknięte sankcją bezskuteczności względnej na podstawie art. 39 K.c.

The All-Russian Congress of Learned Monasticism at the Moscow Theological Academy in 1917
Authors: Масин В.В.
Published: June 2024

В начале ХХ века в русском монашестве окончательно сложилась особая подгруппа учёного иночества, основной задачей которой стала преподавательская и научная деятельность в рамках духовных школ. Монахи-академисты отличались от «обычных» монастырских насельников по ряду признаков: постриг без искуса, свободное распоряжение своим имуществом, проживание и несение послушаний вне стен какой-либо обители, частые переводы с места на место в рамках учебно-административного служения. Всё это отрешало грамотных представителей иночества от монастырской жизни и делало их чуждыми русской монастырской традиции. Многие представители академического монашества, признавая свою историческую обособленность от монастырей, стремились преодолеть сложившуюся тенденцию и искали пути к консолидации своих сил на благо Церкви. Начиная с 1909 г., появилась позитивная тенденция общецерковного обсуждения монашеской проблематики. Тем не менее теме академического монашества по-прежнему уделялось мало внимания. Одним из ключевых моментов в деле консолидации этой подгруппы монашествующих перед лицом созыва Поместного Собора 1917–1918 г. стал всероссийский съезд учёных монахов в июле 1917 г. Именно об этом съезде и его решениях в данной статье пойдёт речь. Целью исследования является изучение истории созыва и работы учёного монашеского съезда, а также анализ выработанных им итоговых положений. В результате проделанной работы автор пришёл к закономерному выводу, что участниками съезда учёных иноков был предпринят ряд шагов, направленных на институализацию учёного монашества как особого вида служения, хотя в итоговых постановлениях съезда провозглашался принцип единства всего монашества.

At the beginning of the 20th century, a special subgroup of scholarly monks emerged in Russian monasticism, whose main task became teaching and scientific activities within spiritual schools. The monk-academicians differed from «ordinary» monastery inhabitants in several ways: they were tonsured without the art of hair cutting, had free disposal of their property, lived and obeyed outside the walls of any monastery, and had frequent transfers as part of their educational and administrative service. All of this separated literate representatives of monasticism from monastic life and made them alien to the Russian monastic tradition. Many representatives of academic monasticism, recognizing their historical isolation from monasteries, sought to overcome the prevailing trend and looked for ways to consolidate their forces for the benefit of the Church. Starting from 1909, there was a positive trend of discussing monastic issues at the all-church level. Nevertheless, little attention was still paid to the topic of academic monasticism. One of the key moments in the consolidation of this subgroup of monks in the face of the Local Council of 1917–1918 was the All-Russian Congress of Scholarly Monks in July 1917. This article will discuss this congress and its decisions.

РОЗВИТОК КУЛЬТУРИ МОВЛЕННЯ МАЙБУТНІХ ГУМАНІТАРІЇВ (МОВНІ ДЕВІАЦІЇ Й ЛІТЕРАТУРНЕ УЖИВАННЯ ГРУПИ ПИСЬМОВИЙ, ПИСЕМНИЙ, ЛИСТОВНИЙ, ПИСАНИЙ)
Authors: Мішеніна Тетяна , Скидан Сергій
Published: June 2024

Публікація присвячена питанню вироблення культури мовлення у майбутніх гуманітаріїв у вивченні мовних дисциплін.
Спостереження над мовними девіаціями й літературним уживанням групи письмовий, писемний, листовий, писаний спрямовує на уважне ставлення до нормативного вживання, поєднання з іменниками, доречне уведення у фаховий текст.
Простежено розвиток внутрішньої форми спостережуваної групи через діахронний аспект. Такий підхід уможливлює розгляд мовних одиниць з урахуванням історико-культурного чинника розвитку їх значення, параметрів функціонування залежно від стильового віднесення.
Нормативне уживання терміносполучень безпосередньо впливає на успішність комунікації, оскільки трансляція фахових знань орієнтує на продукування текстів, у яких використані доречно й точно терміносполучення забезпечують імпресію інформації, визначають хід когнітивного осмислення викладеного.
Культура фахового мовлення майбутніх гуманітаріїв визначає рівень сформованості елітарної мовної особистості, яка продукує фахові тексти, виявляє креативність у відтворенні інформації, демонструє інтелектуальну довершеність у доборі мовного ресурсу задля відтворення думки. Діахронний аспект розгляду розвитку внутрішньої форми мовної одиниці сприяє усвідомленню її історико-культурної детермінації.
Мовна девіація полягає не лише в неправильному поєднанні відповідно до семантико-синтаксичної тяглості, але також у нерозумінні значення (внутрішня форма слова засвідчує активний розвиток конотативних відтінків).
Розроблено систему завдань, спрямованих на контекстуальний розгляд групи мовних одиниць, які перебувають у паронімічних, гіпонімічних і партитивних відношеннях.
Здобувачі звертають увагу на модифікацію іншомовних елементів у структурі терміна шляхом діахронного спостереження.
Запропоновано ситуативні завдання, розв’язання яких передбачає звернення до історії розвитку основного й додаткових значень. Виконання завдань передбачає здійснення лексикографічної роботи, звернення до моно-, бі- й галузевих полісловників.
Окремо розглянуто поняття писемності через призму каналів комунікації.
ПРОФЕСІЙНИЙ МЕНЕДЖМЕНТ В УПРАВЛІНСЬКІЙ ГАЛУЗІ КЕРІВНИКА КАФЕДРИ ДОШКІЛЬНОЇ ОСВІТИ
Authors: Панасенко Елліна
Published: June 2024

У статті розглянуто основи професійного менеджменту, зокрема привернуто увагу до теоретичних засад і концепцій, методології та практичних рекомендацій із питань управління, організації та планування роботи менеджера й кафедри, зокрема дошкільної педагогіки. Виокремлено поняття менеджменту й управлінських якостей керівника кафедри дошкільної освіти. Зауважено на розвиткові менеджменту як галузі для запровадження головних управлінських процесів і планування наукової діяльності кафедри та її складу. Акцентовано на думці, що роль сучасного менеджера полягає не лише в проведенні дій і реагуванні на зовнішні події, які впливають на нього. Менеджер повинен сам активно впливати на ці події, актуалізуючи себе, власні здібності, управляти собою й іншими учасниками навчально-виховної процесуальної діяльності в будь-якій ситуації. Підкреслено, що менеджер – це людина, яка професіонально виконує управлінські функції, використовуючи всі засоби, надані в його розпорядження. Обґрунтовано думку, що менеджер у процесі власної діяльності повинен володіти професійними, діловими, адміністративно-організаторськими, соціально-психологічними та моральними якостями. Зазначено, що особові характеристики, визначальна поведінка та результативність менеджера на кафедрі, зокрема дошкільної освіти, розподіляють на взаємопов’язані групи: знання та навички, здібності та позиції (установка, орієнтація на досягнення). Аналіз наукової літератури уможливив виділити в статті такі критерії комунікативної компетентності професійного менеджера: мотиваційно-ціннісний, когнітивний та діяльнісно-комунікативний компоненти. Підкреслено, що компетенція – це сума знань, досвіду, умінь і навичок, які управлінець має у своєму розпорядженні.

The article identifies the prospects for increasing labor potential in the context of European integration processes. Literary sources are analyzed in order to determine the essence of the country's labor resources. The current state of the country's labor resources and prospects for increasing the labor potential are highlighted. The key aspects of cooperation between Ukraine and the European Union are identified. The problems of increasing labor potential and development of labor resources in the context of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine are investigated. The author emphasizes that increased migration activity, rising unemployment and loss of income for a large part of the population have led to a deepening of inequality in income distribution. In addition, it is noted that increased competition in the labor market and a shortage of human resources in the context of war impede the development of the country's labor potential. Effective ways to increase the labor potential in Ukraine during the war and in the context of the development of European integration processes are investigated. It was determined that the top priorities are the implementation of financial support programs for enterprises and the population, raising the minimum wage, developing social security, developing measures to improve the psychological state of the population, and implementing European standards of equal rights and opportunities for all segments of the population. It is noted that the current strategy for the development of human capital in Ukraine involves the attraction of foreign labor and support from the European Union and partners. The author analyzes the key programs and initiatives of the European Union aimed at developing the labor potential of Ukraine. It is determined that active cooperation with the European Union in the field of scientific and technological programs contributes to the formation of an innovative environment, but will require reforms in the field of labor resources, and it is important to start the necessary changes in the short term.

The essence of the concept of «food security» is studied. Theoretical and practical approaches to ensuring food security are studied. The general situation of food security of Ukraine is considered, the structure and features of its provision are determined. The general state and main aspects of the problems of food security of the Chernihiv region are disclosed and the main directions of its formation are determined. The main orientation of the regional organization of production and improvement of the living standard of the population is proposed, taking into account economic, socio-demographic and natural-climatic factors. It is determined that the theoretical features and regional structure of the agricultural sector of both Ukraine as a whole and Chernihiv region continue to be formed under the influence of the economic situation in the country. A diagnostic assessment of food security in the Chernihiv region was carried out. An analysis of the indicators of sufficiency of consumption of products of different groups in 2023 in the Chernihiv region is carried out. In particular, attention is paid to the main indicators that indicate the level of food security in the region. Scientific approaches to the development of a mechanism for ensuring food security by supporting domestic production have been expanded, namely, the introduction and support of organic production. According to statistics, in 2022, the area of land certified as organic or in transition in our region amounted to 3045.8 hectares, which is 12% less than in 2021 (0.22% of all arable land in the region). Producers of organic products grew 2502.7 tons of grain crops, including rye, oats, tritical, mustard, barley, buckwheat, etc. It is proved that organic production is one of the main directions of development of food security in the Chernihiv region. In particular, the priority strategy for sustainable development of the Chernihiv region for the period up to 2027 is the development of organic farming and the production of environmentally friendly food, one of the directions is the start of specialization of the Chernihiv region.

The article examines the concepts of "marketing" and "marketing management", analyzes the main concepts of marketing and defines the relationship between marketing and management at the enterprise. This study aims to provide a deep understanding of the key aspects of marketing activities and their integration with general management processes to achieve sustainable commercial success. In the scientific literature, various definitions are given to understand the essence of "marketing". From the given definitions, certain approaches can be distinguished, which include: functional approach, process approach, socio-management approach, entrepreneurial approach, strategic approach, behavioral approach and social approach. In our opinion, marketing should be understood as a complex and multifaceted process that includes market research, product development, pricing, organization of distribution and promotion in order to meet consumer needs and achieve company goals. The development of marketing was carried out within the framework of marketing concepts, in particular: improvement of production; product improvement; intensification of efforts; classic marketing; relationship marketing; marketing deals; strategic marketing; maxi-marketing; mega-marketing. The study of the essence of the concept of "marketing management" allows us to distinguish the following approaches, in particular: functional approach, process approach, organizational approach, systemic approach, adaptive approach and interactive approach. In our opinion, marketing management should be understood as the process of planning, analysis, implementation and control of the enterprise's marketing activities in order to achieve its strategic goals. Marketing and management and their relationship play a key role in ensuring the success of the enterprise. Effective integration of marketing strategies with management processes allows enterprises to adapt to market conditions, satisfy customer needs and achieve their business goals.

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia and frailty may develop at varying rates depending on the metabolic, structural, and functional changes in the muscle structure after stroke. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty in patients with stroke and affecting clinical parameters. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional and analytical study. Twenty-six (49.1%) women and 27 men (50.9%) with stroke with an average age of 60.2 ± 10.3 (median = 62) years were included in the study. To evaluate physical performance, balance, and mobility, we used the 4-meter walk test (4-MWT), timed up and go test, chair sit and stand test, and the Berg Balance Scale (BBS). Sarcopenia was diagnosed according to the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 criteria. The SARC-F scale was used for sarcopenia. RESULTS: The average stroke duration was 21.6 ± 18.2 months. Prefrailty was present in 14 (26.4%) patients, frailty was present in 34 (64.2%) patients, and two (3.8%) patients were normal. Sarcopenia was detected in 28 (52.8%) patients. According to handgrip strength, the prevalence of low muscle strength was 17% (n= 9). In the sarcopenic group, female sex (p= 0.005) was more frequent, 4-MWT was longer (p= 0.003), chair stand test results were lower (p< 0.001), the clinical frailty scale (CFS) was higher (p< 0.001), fall risk was higher compared with the BBS (p< 0.001), there was lower HG strength (p= 0.009), lower malnutrition scores (PNI, prognostic nutritional index, p< 0.001), and lower lymphocyte counts (p= 0.037). EAT-10 scores and dysphagia presence (p= 0.026), the presence of malnutrition (p< 0.021) and Nottingham Health Profile score (p< 0.001) were higher in the sarcopenic group. CONCLUSION: Sarcopenia and frailty frequently develop in patients with chronic stroke, with low lymphocyte counts, physical performance, muscle strength, and mobility and balance scores, and it is associated with poor prognostic factors including high disease severity, dysphagia, malnutrition, risk of falling, and poor quality of life.

In the last decade, the world has witnessed remarkable technological development, especially in artificial intelligence, which helps researchers find solutions to problems of concern to the individual and society, mainly, the huge propagation of hate speech with the increased use of social media platforms. In this study, we aim to enhance the detection of Arabic hate speech on social media by addressing challenges related to imbalanced datasets through data augmentation techniques. Several machine learning algorithms and the DziriBert, a pre-trained transformer model, are implemented on the Tunisian Hate Speech and Abusive Dataset (T-HSAB). The proposed approach achieves good results, improving the detection of hateful comments on Arabic social media using the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE). Notably, the DziriBert model exhibits remarkable proficiency in detecting hate speech, achieving an accuracy of 82%. Random Forest (RF) and Linear SVC outperform the state of the art approaches, achieving the best result.

A new accurate and fast convergence cuckoo search algorithm for solving constrained engineering optimization problems
Authors: Abdollahi Mahdi , Bouyer Asgarali , Arasteh Bahman
Published: June 2024

In recent years, the Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (COA) has been widely used to solve various optimization problems due to its simplicity, efficacy, and capability to avoid getting trapped in local optima. However, COA has some limitations such as low convergence when it comes to solving constrained optimization problems with many constraints. This study proposes a new modified and adapted version of the Cuckoo optimization algorithm, referred to as MCOA, that overcomes the challenge of solving constrained optimization problems. The proposed adapted version introduces a new coefficient that reduces the egg-laying radius, thereby enabling faster convergence to the optimal solution. Unlike previous methods, the new coefficient does not require any adjustment during the iterative process, as the radius automatically decreases along the iterations. To handle constraints, we employ the Penalty Method, which allows us to incorporate constraints into the optimization problem without altering its formulation. To evaluate the performance of the proposed MCOA, we conduct experiments on five well-known case studies. Experimental results demonstrate that MCOA outperforms COA and other state-of-the-art optimization algorithms in terms of both efficiency and robustness. Furthermore, MCOA can reliably find the global optimal solution for all the tested problems within a reasonable iteration number.

Authors: Cai Yuan
Published: June 2024

Accompanied by a series of developments in information technology, such as the Internet of Things, big data, and digital twin technology, these innovations came into existence and began to gain significance. Targeting the issues of hierarchical confusion and inadequate visualization in traditional logistics and warehousing systems, this study begins by analyzing the framework structure of the warehousing system. It uses genetic algorithm calculation to obtain the solution set for optimizing cargo pull objectives. Finally, it proposes a novel intelligent IoT logistics and warehousing system by integrating digital twin technology. The experiment results indicated the genetic algorithm could optimize up to 60% of the cargo pull optimization objective function in this model with at least 300 iterations. The simulation and actual times of outgoing and incoming storage under this model varied between 0 to 1. The error throughout the range was a minimum of 0.1 seconds. The study found that the storage density achieved a maximum value of nearly 98%, while the minimum storage cost was approximately $3 per order and the maximum was $9 per order. Overall, the proposed model can aid enterprises in optimizing their operations by improving efficiency and reducing logistics and warehousing costs, ultimately promoting the digital and intelligent development of the logistics industry.

Published: June 2024

Background:

Computer-aided machine learning models are being actively developed with clinically available biomarkers to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in living persons. Despite considerable work with cross-sectional in vivo data, many models lack validation against postmortem AD neuropathological data.

Objective:

Train machine learning models to classify the presence or absence of autopsy-confirmed severe AD neuropathology using clinically available features.

Methods:

AD neuropathological status are assessed at postmortem for participants from the National Alzheimer’s Coordinating Center (NACC). Clinically available features are utilized, including demographics, Apolipoprotein E(APOE) genotype, and cortical thicknesses derived from ante-mortem MRI scans encompassing AD meta regions of interest (meta-ROI). Both logistic regression and random forest models are trained to identify linearly and nonlinearly separable features between participants with the presence ( N = 91, age-at-MRI = 73.6±9.24, 38 women) or absence ( N = 53, age-at-MRI = 68.93±19.69, 24 women) of severe AD neuropathology. The trained models are further validated in an external data set against in vivo amyloid biomarkers derived from PET imaging (amyloid-positive: N = 71, age-at-MRI = 74.17±6.37, 26 women; amyloid-negative: N = 73, age-at-MRI = 71.59±6.80, 41 women).

Results:

Our models achieve a cross-validation accuracy of 84.03% in classifying the presence or absence of severe AD neuropathology, and an external-validation accuracy of 70.14% in classifying in vivo amyloid positivity status.

Conclusions:

Our models show that clinically accessible features, including APOE genotype and cortical thinning encompassing AD meta-ROIs, are able to classify both postmortem confirmed AD neuropathological status and in vivo amyloid status with reasonable accuracies. These results suggest the potential utility of AD meta-ROIs in determining AD neuropathological status in living persons.

Authors: Wang Qian
Published: June 2024

Undoubtedly, the Internet is an indispensable part of daily life in this era. In this context, the emergence of new media has played a disruptive role in information dissemination, and has also provided new definitions and evaluation standards for the impact of information dissemination. In an environment where excellent research is constantly emerging, it is of research value to redefine the elements of new media information dissemination from a new perspective and provide specific examples to analyze their information dissemination paths. The new-media information communication influence evaluation from super intellectual property (IP) perspective is a multipleattribute group decisionmaking (MAGDM) problem. Recently, the Exponential TODIM (an acronym in Portuguese of interactive and multicriteria decision making) method has been used to cope with MAGDM issues. The interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy sets (IVPFSs) are used as a tool for characterizing uncertain information during the new-media information communication influence evaluation from super intellectual property. In this manuscript, the interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy Exponential TODIM (ExpTODIM) (IVPFExpTODIM) method is built to solve the MAGDM under IVPFSs. In the end, a numerical case study for new-media information communication influence evaluation from super intellectual property is given to validate the proposed method. The main research contribution of this paper is constructed: (1) the Exponential TODIM (ExpTODIM) method is extended to the IVPFSs; (2) the interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy Exponential TODIM (ExpTODIM) (IVPF-ExpTODIM) method is built to solve the MAGDM under IVPFSs; (3) the information Entropy is used to obtain the weight values based on the score value and accuracy value under IVPFSs; (4) Finally, a numerical case study for new-media information communication influence evaluation from super intellectual property is given to validate the proposed method.

Heavy metals are one of the most important environmental pollutants. One of the methods of absorbing heavy metals from industrial wastewater is the use of synthesized nanosorbents. The high cost and low efficiency of some common industrial wastewater treatment processes have created limitations. One of the interesting methods is the absorption process by carbon nanotubes as a new method. The present research aims to investigate the application of Al nanoparticles coated with polyaniline and functionalized modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) for removal of Ni2+ and Zn2+ from a simulated industrial effluent. In the present study, the effect of absorption process time, pH, nickel and zinc ion dose, adsorbent dose and temperature on the efficiency of heavy metal absorption was investigated. The concentration of metal ions was measured using the ICP model ES-710. FTIR spectra for modified MWCNT nanotubes and polyaniline-coated alumina nanoparticles were recorded before and after adsorption using a PerkinElmer Spectrum One FTIR vacuum oven. X-ray diffraction patterns were obtained by XRD Rigaku Ultima IV, Japan, and SEM and TEM micrograph analysis were performed by FESEM TESCAN MIRA 3 and PHILIPS CM300, respectively.The maximum removal efficiency of nickel and zinc cations using nano alumina coated with polyaniline was obtained at pH 10 and 8, respectively. The maximum removal percentage of these two metal ions using functionalized MWCNTs can also be obtained at pH 7 and 8. The optimal concentration of metal ions for the highest removal efficiency of studied cations using surface modified alumina nanoparticles and functionalized MWCNT was obtained at 800 mg/L and 100 mg/L, respectively. In addition, the adsorption efficiency decreased with increasing process temperature. The obtained results showed that surface MWCNT with carbonyl, carboxyl and hydroxyl functional groups together with alumina nanoparticles modified by polyaniline can be considered as a potential adsorbent for absorbing nickel and zinc cations from simulated industrial effluents.
