The specific features relating to voltage control of power transformers at distribution network transformer substations are considered. An approach to implementing high-speed on-load voltage control of serially produced 10/0.4 kV power transformers by using a solid-state on-load tap changer (SOLTC) is presented. An example of the SOLTC circuit solution on the basis of thyristor switches is given. On-load voltage control algorithms for power transformers equipped with SOLTC that ensure high reliability and high-speed operation are proposed. The SOLTC performance and the operability of the suggested voltage control algorithms were studied by simulation in the Matlab/Simulink environment and by experiments on the SOLTC physical model. The structure and peculiarities of the used simulation Matlab model are described. The SOLTC physical model design and its parameters are presented. The results obtained from the simulating the SOLTC operation on the Matlab model and from the experiments on the SOLTS physical model jointly with a power transformer under different loads and with using different control algorithms are given. An analysis of the experimental study results has shown the soundness of the adopted technical solutions. It has been demonstrated that the use of an SOLTC ensures high-speed voltage control, high efficiency and reliability of its operation, and arcless switching of the power transformer regulating taps without load voltage and current interruption. By using the SOLTC operation algorithms it is possible to perform individual phase voltage regulation in a three-phase 0.4 kV distribution network. The possibility of integrating SOLTC control and diagnostic facilities into the structure of modern digital substations based on the digital interface according to the IEC 61850 standard is noted.

Nexus Between Intellectual Capital and Profitability: Evidence from Listed SMEs in Malaysia
Authors:   Faculty of Accountancy, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Sabah Branch, Malaysia, Mohammad Hapsah S.
Published: May 2022

This paper examines the impact of intellectual capital and its components on profitability using the Modified Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (MVAIC) methodology. Data was collected from 26 listed SMEs in Malaysia from 2017-2019 providing 78 observations. This study employed the fixed-effect and random-effect models. The results showed that the MVAIC was significant and positively associated with profitability. Of the four components of the MVAIC, human capital efficiency and capital employed efficiency correlated positively and significantly with profitability. Structural capital efficiency was negatively associated with profitability. While, relational capital efficiency revealed an insignificant association with profitability. Overall, listed SMEs profitability was driven by both intellectual capital and physical capital, however the magnitude of contribution varied. The effect of capital employed efficiency presented a superior relative magnitude in comparison to human capital, structural capital and relational capital suggesting that physical capital was the main drive behind profitability. This study presented a robust theoretical foundation and employed a validated methodology. Therefore, it extends knowledge of intellectual capital among academicians and stakeholders as well as highlights its contribution to value creation. Keywords: intellectual capital, profitability, SMEs, MVAIC models
Simplified Woven Fabric Geometry for Tensile and Bending Analysis
Authors: Yahya Mohd faizul , Ungku Mohd Aziz Ungku Nur  Ainaa
Published: May 2022

This paper introduced a simplified finite element analysis (FEA) tensile model to replace the actual prototype with the FEA software. FEA was performed using commercially available ABAQUS software. FEA is a computerized method of predicting how a product reacts to real-world forces, vibrations, heat, fluid flow, and other physical effects. Furthermore, fabric performance can expect by using FEA in textile testing. This project aims to determine the tensile and bending analysis of the plain-woven fabric using ABAQUS software. The fibre modulus was configured 10% and 20% lower than the initially configured modulus. The mesh size is reduced to 20% and 40% to determine the stress and strain curve and analyze the bending model. The results showed that the stress-strain curve would be affected as the modulus and mesh size decreases.
Microfibre Release Due to Domestic Washings: An Overview from Textile Fuzzing Perspective
Authors: Bonnia Noor Najmi , Nasir Eryna , Abdul Ghani Suzaini
Published: May 2022

Microfibre release into the aquatic environment is one of the latest research interests among the environmental community. Washing activities at home or also known as domestic washings have been claimed as one of the sources of the microfibre release and the main factor of fibre loss from textile materials is due to the entanglement of small fibres on the fabric surface during wearing or care activities. Hence, the review from the context of textile surface fuzzing is needed to understand the phenomenon better especially for the evaluation purpose. The microfibre release from textile materials during washing was due to the detachment of the fibres either prior to or after pilling formation. In any of these situations, some amount of microfibres or fuzzing were left on the textile surface. Hence, the evaluation on the fuzzing is proposed to see if it has a relationship with the amount of microfibres being released into the washing effluent. The evaluation of textile fuzzing is usually made by either physical test or digital image processing, which the latter offers more objective results.

"This article discusses the assimilation process of a Computerized Pedagogical Management System (CPMS), which was developed in Israel in 2006 by Hameiri, and since then has been integrated into 1,680 Jewish and Arab schools throughout the country. It was developed in the aim of utilizing the computer and internet infrastructure to process, report and use real time relevant data to carry out management tasks and data presentation by school principals and staff and to improve school effectiveness. This research seeks to examine the culture’s impact on the assimilation of the CPMS leading to educational change process, relevant to the 21st century. The Participants (N=96) were teachers, coordinators, and principals, 39 from the Arab society and 57 from the Jewish society. The study findings indicate that the extent of assimilation of the CPMS vary between Arab and Jewish schools, with the Arab educational staff reporting a greater degree of assimilation. There is also a greater degree of assimilation in the schools supervised by the Ministry of Education, than in the schools of the Ministry of Labor. At the practical level, the study indicates a need to strengthen the assimilation of CPMS in schools supervised by the Ministry of Labor. Training programs and technological support are needed so they may benefit from this system. Training the parents in all schools - both Jewish and Arab, on the value of CPMS, which provides real-time updates on their child's educational development, and how to use this system is of particular importance."

In Western countries, up to 40% of teachers report that their jobs and positions entail high levels of stress and tension, and many leave the teaching profession after a few years. High pedagogical and organizational demands pose a threat to the wellbeing special education teachers, which could cause burnout, stress reactions and anxiety. This paper deals with the need to develop a unique yoga based pedagogical intervention program for teachers who teach students with special needs. A comprehensive review of the research literature on the effect of yoga reveals significant improvements in the physical and emotional health of diverse populations defined by age, gender, occupation, health, and employment status. Therefore, Yoga seems to be an appropriate method to be embedded in the daily school routine in order to provide relief and reduce special education teachers’ stress and anxiety levels. The primary conclusion of this paper reveals a need for a unique intervention program and that this is especially important for teachers generally, and teachers of special education specifically.
Mala conducta penitenciaria en CERESO Hermosillo I: Una aproximación desde la teoría del control administrativo
Authors: Galindo Fuentes José de Jesús
Published: May 2022

Los actos de mala conducta efectuados por personas privadas de la libertad representan violaciones a la normativa interna. Han sido estudiados en países desarrollados, pero no así en países en desarrollo. El objetivo del estudio es presentar un marco conceptual que describe la relación entre variables de lateoría del control administrativo e incidentes de mala conducta. Para este fin, se evalúan 3 hipótesis. Se aplicó un cuestionario a una muestra de 129 internos del centro penitenciario CERESO Hermosillo I en Hermosillo (Sonora, México). A partir de los hallazgos se concluyó que la percepción de la comunicación y legitimidad de las autoridades vista por parte de los internos tienen influencia como predictores de actos de mala conducta debido a su impacto en el quiebre organizacional.
Translations of the French comedy Bienvenue chez les Ch’tis into Portuguese
Authors: Dias Sousa Márcia
Published: May 2022

Audiovisual translation has been experiencing a growing complexification of its contours. The subtitling of the French comedy Bienvenue chez les Ch’tis into Portuguese is an interesting case study, for it shows the role of non-professional audiovisual translations and translators, as well as their impact over the (mis)understanding of the Other. We aim to contribute to such an acknowledgement through a doubly comparative analysis: (i) between two linguistic variants – the European Portuguese and the Brazilian Portuguese; and (ii) between professionally and non-professionally conducted translation practices. Most of all, we wish to realize whether the translational choices mirrored (or not) a cultural perspective over the Ch’tis community and whether the technical conditions influenced (or not) the translators’ work, mainly in terms of meaning conveyance.

Del thriller a la cárcel: mujeres criminales en la obra cinematográfica de Isabel Coixet y Belén Macías
Authors: Pacheco Jiménez Laura , Durán Manso Valeriano
Published: May 2022

La presencia de mujeres directoras ha sido escasa en el cine español. Con la excepción de Ana Mariscal, Josefina Molina y, sobre todo, Pilar Miró, pocas cineastas han conseguido una carrera fílmica estable. En la década de los 90, nuevos nombres aparecieron en el panorama cinematográfico nacional, con películas protagonizadas por mujeres que pertenecían a diversos géneros. Tradicionalmente, dos de los menos relacionados con el protagonismo femenino han sido el drama carcelario y el thriller, pero Belén Macías e Isabel Coixet los abordan en El patio de mi cárcel (2008) y Mapa de los sonidos de Tokyo (2009), respectivamente. Con los objetivos de conocer la evolución de estas directoras y destacar su aportación en el tratamiento de esos temas, se analizan como persona y como rol –según Francesco Casetti y Federico Di Chio-, las protagonistas de ambas películas, enmarcadas en el ámbito de la criminalidad y en la lucha contra la misma. Desde estas consideraciones, este trabajo pretende reflexionar sobre la apuesta de Macías y de Coixet por tratar dos géneros narrativos habitualmente vinculados con directores, contar con el absoluto protagonismo de los personajes femeninos y plasmar nuevos roles para la mujer en el celuloide español actual.
La recepción inicial de Hegel en Schopenhauer (1813-1827)
Authors: Herrera Fernando
Published: May 2022

La oposición a Hegel («antihegelianismo») mediante la cual con frecuencia la tradición presenta la filosofía schopenhaueriana se ha interpretado en ocasiones como una relación de dependencia, en la medida en que aquella habría surgido como una cierta reacción frente a la de Hegel. El artículo muestra que los documentos disponibles acerca de los comienzos de la relación de Schopenhauer con Hegel hacen insostenible tal supuesto, además de ofrecer un marco y diversas claves para comprender su posterior polémica con el hegelianismo.

Authors: Casas José Antonio , Jiménez David , Sánchez Sergio
Published: May 2022

El presente trabajo se centró en estudiar la relación que surge entre los adolescentes y los youtubers con el objetivo de conocer el significado y el grado de repercusión que representa seguir a un determinado youtuber. La limitada investigación científica al respecto ha señalado la importancia de aspectos como la tipología de contenidos en las emisiones de video, el estado de ánimo que pueden llegar a transmitir estos personajes en los adolescentes o el grado de cercanía e idealización que muestran los seguidores más jóvenes. Para ello, se desarrolló y validó un cuestionario ad hoc. Los resultados respaldan las dimensiones propuestas y perpetúan ciertos roles de género. Se concluye que es necesario desarrollar una educación mediática crítica, concientizando a las familias y al profesorado sobre la importancia de este tema y la necesidad de fomentar un enfoque crítico en los jóvenes respecto al “seguimiento” de estos nuevos ídolos.

Published: May 2022

Introduction: Nanoparticles (NPs) have been proven to enhance radiotherapy doses as radiosensitizers. The introduction of coating materials such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) to NPs could impact the NPs’ biocompatibility and their effectiveness as radiosensitizers. Optimization of surface coating is a crucial element to ensure the successful application of NPs as a radiosensitizer in radiotherapy. This study aims to investigate the influence of bismuth oxide NPs (BiONPs) coated with PEG on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation on HeLa cervical cancer cell line.

Material and methods: Different PEG concentrations (0.05, 0.10, 0.15 and 0.20 mM) were used in the synthesis of the NPs. The treated cells were irradiated with 6 and 12 MeV electron beams with a delivered dose of 3 Gy. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was measured immediately after and 3 hours after irradiation.

Results: The intracellular ROS generation was found to be slightly influenced by electron beam energy and independent of the PEG concentrations. Linear increments of ROS percentages over the 3 hours of incubation time were observed.

Conclusions: Finally, the PEG coating might not substantially affect the ROS generated and thus emphasizing the functionalized BiONPs application as the radiosensitizer for electron beam therapy.

The Perception of The Widow in Stand-up Comedy Mega Syalshabillah
Authors: Sihombing Lambok Hermanto , Saputra Adithiya Wiradinatha
Published: May 2022

This article discusses the perception of widows in the stand-up comedy presented by Mega Syalshabillah. Stand-up comedy is a comedy performance art performed by one performer or who is familiarly called a comic. In her performances, Mega Syalshabillah always uses a theme close to the life of a widow. The depiction she did was a form of answering the negative perception that existed in the public's mind about a widow. In this study, the author will examine how the perception of widows in stand-up comedy delivered by Mega Syalshabillah. Researchers use data sourced from YouTube shows, and this is because the YouTube platform is very close and dominantly used as a means of finding information/watching entertainment by the public. The process for selecting YouTube views is based on the most significant number of views. In practice, the author uses the theory of perception proposed by J. Cohen. The theory of perception that the researcher used aims to see the views and perspectives of a widow due to divorce. Personal branding theory is also used in this study as a supporting theory, and it aims to answer how a comedian promotes himself so that the wider community knows it. The findings obtained from this analysis are that people always have a negative perception of a widow due to divorce; the community first generalizes the bad things about widow status.

Developing growth reference charts for the head circumference of Pakistani children aged 6 to 18 years
Authors: Asif Muhammad , Aslam Muhammad , Ismail Tariq , Rahman Akasha , Saleem Nasir
Published: May 2022

Background. Head circumference (HC) measurement is a significant measure of brain volume. It is also considered a powerful predictor in the evaluation of developmental and neurological disorders in children. This study aims to develop smoothed reference curves for HC of the Pakistani children of age 6 to 18 years.
Methods. A cross-sectional dataset, consisting of 9194 school-going children of age 6-18 years, were obtained using a multi-ethnic anthropometric survey. For the measurement of HC (cm), the standard procedure was adopted. For both sexes, the smoothed centile curves of HC were developed by using the lambda-mu-sigma (LMS) statistical approach. Moreover, we compared our 50th percentile curves to those produced for few other countries.
Results. The centiles curves of both sexes indicated that the HC increased with age. Until the age of 10 years, the boys had larger HC percentiles than those of the girls. From the age of 11 years, upper percentiles (90th, 95th and 97th) of the girls were higher than those of the boys. The comparison of our 50th percentile data for the HC with the data from the United States (US) and Turkish children revealed that the Pakistani children of both genders had smaller head sizes in all ages when compared to those reported for the latter stated countries.
Conclusions. Our results show the larger disparity of HC percentiles in different countries. This comprehensive study suggests that the references from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data and other populations are not suitable for Pakistani children. Therefore, each country is required to create its own HC reference curves, separately.

Background. Juvenile systemic sclerosis (JSS) is an extremely rarely seen auto-immune disease characterized by the increased fibrosis of skin and internal organs. Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) is a developmental disorder of the lung, characterized by atypical cell hyperplasia which creates the ground for lung adenocarcinoma. In general, CPAM is diagnosed in early childhood, due to recurrent respiratory symptoms including cough, hemoptysis and respiratory infections. Although rare, there are some sporadic asymptomatic cases of CPAM that have been reported. We present a case with a coincidental presence of two rare diseases: JSS and CPAM.
Case. An adolescent female patient was admitted to hospital due to clinical signs of JSS. During the followup, the patient had been diagnosed with cystic adenoid malformation of the lung complicated by mucinous adenocarcinoma. The patient was previously healthy with an unremarkable history, including lack of respiratory symptoms. Left inferior lobectomy was performed. Considering the small size of malignant loci, the total resection of the tumor and absence of any sign for metastasis disease, adjuvant therapy was not scheduled. We haven`t found a pediatric case of CPAM associated adenocarcinoma of the lung presented by signs of JSS in the literature. In this case, the clinical signs of JSS possibly represent part of the paraneoplastic syndrome related to adenocarcinoma of the lung.
Conclusions. Internal organ involvement, including respiratory system, should not be omitted even in asymptomatic patients with JSS. Auto-antibody negativity represents a clue for the possible underlying condition. Further studies with a higher number of patients would reveal more relevant data.

Authors: Özkaya Pınar Yazıcı , Turanlı Eşe Eda , Arı Hatice Feray , Kurt Serap , Karapınar Bülent
Published: May 2022

Background. Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) is a disorder due to the loss of regulation of autonomic activity. The most common condition predisposing to the development of PSH is traumatic brain injury (TBI), followed by anoxic brain injury, stroke, tumors, and infections. Awareness about the condition and early recognition is important to avoid life threatening complications.
Case. We report a 4-year-old child with tuberculous meningitis with symptoms of PSH who developed cardiac failure. PSH episodes were treated with beta blocker, benzodiazepine, morphine, dexmedetomidine, baclofen, and tizanidine. Three weeks after readmission PSH episodes decreased and the patient was transferred to the general ward.
Conclusions. PSH assessment tool has benefits such as monitoring the patient, evaluating response to treatment and early diagnosing PSH patients.
Cutaneous Allergic reactions to pine processionary caterpillar (Thaumetopoea Pityocampa): a complicated cutaneous reaction in an infant and review of the literature
Authors: Galip Nilüfer , Şanlıdağ Burçin , Babayiğit Arzu , Bahçeciler Nerin Nadir
Published: May 2022

Background. Thaumetopoea Pityocampa (TP) are frequent in the Mediterranean region especially affecting forest workers in pinewood areas. The common symptoms include swelling, rash or burns like any form of dermatitis. The reactions can be triggered by mechanical, chemical or allergic factors and the `allergic` reaction is caused by sensitization to a hair protein named `thaumetopoein`. This protein triggers the IgE mediated reaction resulting in the mast cell degranulation causing urticaria. Different kinds of allergic reactions like urticaria or anaphylaxis have been reported previously commonly in adults, especially in forest workers while severe reactions without direct contact are rare in pediatric population.
Case. A 28 month old healthy boy was admitted to Near East University Pediatric Allergy and Immunology Outpatient Clinic in March with complaints of pain, hyperemia and swelling on the left hand. His complaints had started the day before his admission just after walking around in their garden which is surrounded by pine trees. On admission, his physical examination revealed serious edema and hyperemia on his left hand limiting his finger movements with a few bullae on the skin. His temperature was 38 C and the other vital parameters were normal. Based on hyperemia, swelling and high acute phase reactants he was hospitalized with the differential diagnosis of soft tissue inflammation and cellulitis. The case was treated with iv antihistamines, systemic steroids and antibiotics.
Conclusions. Pine processionary (PP) is an important irritant and allergen especially in endemic areas like Cyprus which is a Mediterranean Country. It must be kept in mind in case of local or generalized urticaria, dermatitis, bullae and other allergic reactions even if there had been no direct contact with PP. Systemic involvement with fever and elevated acute phase reactants in infancy may necessitate hospitalization and intravenous treatment. Hereby, we reported an infant who presented with fever in addition to severe cutaneous lesions following the exposure to TP without direct contact. This is the first case reported from North Cyprus.

Hitler, el Holocausto y los campos de concentración constituyen la trama principal de la narrativa israelí, mientras que la narrativa árabe comienza a perfilarse con mayor fuerza tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Los árabes y el Holocausto. La guerra de narrativa árabe-israelí es un libro que, en este sentido, analiza el tema y describe “una historia de horror narrada por una persona amable en el mejor sentido de la palabra. El espíritu del libro aúna rigor con humildad de una forma que permite ser extremadamente perceptivo sin mostrar ningún rasgo de evangelismo o de proselitismo ni ningún desprecio elitista o racista”. Es un libro capaz de recordarnos “la ilimitada capacidad de la escritura para alcanzarnos y conmovernos”.
Shakespeare para el siglo XXI
Authors: Menassé Adriana
Published: May 2022

Ensayo que muestra la vigencia, en pleno siglo XXI, del complejo trasfondo de las obras de Shakespeare a través de aproximaciones filosóficas al teatro isabelino. El bien  y el mal, el orden y el caos, arriba y abajo, conceptos opuestos pero interdependientes, se desarrollan en su dramaturgia, aunque hoy resulta ingenuo plantear un universo sin una mente superior que lo rija, pero al mismo tiempo es más necesaria que nunca. Como se demuestra en Hamlet y Macbeth, el desarrollo teocéntrico y moral de sus personajes, reflejo de su tiempo, será la constante en toda la obra shakespeariana.
