COMENTÁRIO SOBRE O TEXTO “O V INTERCRÍTICA: UMA SÍNTESE POSSÍVEL DO ACÚMULO TEÓRICO E POLÍTICO”
Authors: Pelissari Lucas , Do Socorro Rodrigues Doriedson
Published: April 2024

Em geral, comunidades de pesquisadores são vistas pela sociedade como grupos dissociados dos grandes problemas do povo. Mesmo quando os cientistas têm como preocupações questões sociais, como no caso de sociólogos, educadores ou cientistas políticos, o senso comum interpreta as ações desses grupos com alguma desconfiança. Afinal, o que as grandes discussões acadêmicas, infalíveis, têm a ver com o sofrimento causado pela exploração do trabalho, pela desigualdade ou pelas opressões? Como essas reflexões podem se relacionar com as pessoas comuns, já que são acessíveis apenas àqueles que “sabem” fazer ciência? Para essa visão corrente, produto de uma espécie cientificista de ideologia, ciência é uma coisa e sociedade é outra.

Distributed trajectory tracking by control contraction theory with learning-based model compensation
Authors: Hu Wenbo , Zhang Litai , Yang Chengqian
Published: April 2024

In this paper, the contraction theory is used to solve the robust
trajectory tracking control method for distributed complex nonlinear
systems. The controller designed by the contraction theory can make the
system track any trajectory and get rid of the assumption of the stable
point of the Lyapunov method. For complex nonlinear systems, parts with
unknown parameters or difficult to model will have a great impact on
controller design. Neural network is used to compensate the
uncertainties of the model, and a global linear matrix inequality (LMI)
which satisfies distributed robust trajectory tracking is proposed. A
decomposition method of global linear matrix inequalities (LMIS) is
presented to meet the solving requirements of distributed controllers.
The rationality of the matrix inequality proposed in this paper is
verified by theoretical analysis.
The ´elongate chelicera-problem‘: a virtual approach in an extinct pterygotid sea scorpion from a 3D kinematic point of view
Authors: Schmidt Michel , Melzer Roland
Published: April 2024

Chelicerae, the distinctive feeding appendages in chelicerates such as
spiders, scorpions, or horseshoe crabs, can be classified based on their
orientation relative to the longitudinal body axis as either
orthognathous (parallel) or labidognathous (inclined), exhibiting
considerable diversity across various taxa. Among extinct chelicerates,
sea scorpions belonging to the group Pterygotidae represent the
exclusive chelicerates possessing markedly elongated chelicerae. Despite
various hypotheses regarding the potential ecological functions and
feeding movements of these tripartite structures, no comprehensive 3D
kinematic investigation has been conducted yet to test these ideas. In
this study, we generated a comprehensive 3D model of the pterygotid
eurypterid Acutiramus, making the elongated right chelicera movable by
equipping it with virtual joint axes for conducting Range of Motion
analyses. Due to the absence in the fossil record indicating whether the
chelicerae were of a orthognathous or a labidognathous orientation, and
their potential lateral or ventral movements (vertical or horizontal
insertion of joint axis 1), we explored the Range of Motion analyses
under four distinct kinematic settings. The most compelling and
plausible kinematic setting involved orthognathous chelicerae that could
be folded ventrally over a horizontal joint axis. This configuration
positioned the tips of each chelicera closest to the oral opening.
Concerning the maximum excursion angle, our analysis revealed that the
chela could open up to 70°, while it could be retracted against the
basal element to a maximum of 145°. The maximum excursion in the
proximal joint varied between 55°-116° based on the insertion and
orientation. Our findings underscore the utility of applying 3D
kinematics to fossilized arthropods for addressing inquiries on
functional ecology such as prey capture and handling, enabling insights
into their behavioral patterns. Pterygotid sea scorpions likely captured
and processed their prey using the chelicerae, subsequently transporting
it to the oral opening with the assistance of other prosomal appendages.
The Marshmallow Test as Screenings Instrument: Sensitivity and Specificity of a Delay of Gratification Tasks as a Longitudinal Predictor for ADHD and Conduct Problems
Authors: Ulitzka Bianca , Daseking Monika , Koerner Julia Kerner auch
Published: April 2024

Delay of gratification tasks seem to have an impressive predictive value
for several outcomes and are supposed to measure self-regulation. Since
many behavioural and psychological problems in children are related to
limitations in self-regulation, the extent to which delay tasks can be
used as a screening to detect psychopathology is examined. Children (N=
1498; 51% girls) participated in Delay tasks at the age of 3 and 5.
Parents rated ADHD and conduct problems at the children‘s age of 5 and
6, which we classified according to cut-offs. Delay at age 3 was related
to ADHD at age 5 (OR = 1.84) and conduct at age 6 (OR = 2.61). The
results showed high specificity (77-78%) and negative predictive values
(95-98%), correctly identifying children below the SDQ cut-off, but low
sensitivity (27-42%), deeming the task unsuitable as screening for
children at risk. These results were aggravated when considering only
the first 20 seconds.
Spatio-temporal variability of CO2 fluxes in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean
Authors: Carvalho Gabrielle Tavares , Pezzi Luciano Ponzi , Rodrigues Celina , Santini Marcelo Freitas , Lefèvre Nathalie , Mejia Carlos E
Published: April 2024

The Southern Ocean (SO) plays a fundamental role in the planet’s climate
system, due to its ability to absorb and redistribute heat and CO2 (an
important greenhouse gas). Besides, the SO interconnects three large
oceanic basins the Pacific, the Atlantic, and the Indian Oceans, and it
has an important role in the nutrient distribution into these oceans.
However, the SO is poorly sampled with most measurements made in austral
spring and summer. The variability of the air-sea CO2 flux is estimated,
as well as the role of atmospheric and oceanic variables in this
variability. The CO2 fluxes are calculated by the bulk parameterization
method, in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean, from 2003 to 2022,
using in situ measurements, satellites and reanalysis data set. A neural
network model is built to produce maps of the partial pressure of CO2 in
seawater (pCO2sea). The CO2 flux varies from -0.05 to 0.05 gC m-²
month-1. The Atlantic sector of the SO is a sink of CO2 in summer and
spring and becomes a source in austral winter and autumn. The CO2
absorption intensifies from 2003 to 2022 by 7.6 mmol m-²month-1, due
stronger westerly winds, related to the trend of the positive phase of
the Antarctic Oscillation and the extreme events of El Niño and La Niña.
The δD records of n-alkane and n-alkanoic acid of tropical trees reflect δD of precipitation during the early stages of the leaf growth
Authors: Saishree Amrita , Managave Shreyas Ramesh , Yadava Madhusudan Girdhar , Maheshwori Salam Devi , Sanyal Prasanta
Published: April 2024

The hydrogen isotopic compositions of the leaf-wax n-alkanes
(δD) and n-alkanoic acids
(δD) are known to reflect ambient climatic
conditions (including precipitation δD values,
δD). However, the climatic conditions of exactly
which period (i.e. early or entire period of the leaf’s lifespan) these
biomarkers represent, i.e. the seasonality in δD and
δD records, is still evolving. The seasonality
studies on the δD and δD values,
done only in extra-tropical regions, mostly indicate the
δD values are biased towards the early growing season
whereas δD values are not biased towards any season.
To decipher the seasonality in the δD and
δD records from the tropics, we conducted a
long-duration experiment wherein deciduous and evergreen species were
grown using normal water (δD = −2‰) during the early stages of the
leaf’s growth and later using isotopically-labeled water (δD = 1000‰).
Our experiment revealed (i) in deciduous and evergreen species,
δD and δD values reflect
δD during the early stages of the leaf’s growth,
(ii) synchronous synthesis of n-alkanes and n-alkanoic
acids, and (iii) in deciduous species, minor incorporation of the
previous year’s photosynthates in the leaf wax pool of the current
year’s mature leaves. Our study suggests that the δD
and δD records in the tropics are biased towards the
climatic conditions prevailing during the early stages of the leaf’s
growth. This bias should be considered while comparing the
δD values generated from the leaf wax proxy
records and isotope-enabled atmospheric circulation models.
Interaction between typhoon, marine heatwaves, and internal tides: Observational insights from Ieodo Ocean Research Station in the northern East China Sea
Authors: JS Saranya , Dasgupta Panini , Nam SungHyun
Published: April 2024

Typhoons, fueled by warm sea surface waters, heighten concern as they
increasingly interact with frequent Marine Heatwaves (MHWs) in a
changing climate. Typhoon Hinnamnor (2022) weakenned and re-intensified
as it approached the Korean Strait, interacting with underlying MHW in
the northern East China Sea (nECS). Here, we found a substantial
increase in latent heat loss from the nECS during the MHW period,
contributing to the typhoon re-intensification from in-situ observations
supplemented by reanalysis products. Strong sea surface wind forcing
associated with the typhoon enhanced vertical mixing and upwelling,
resulting in a pronounced (0.90°C) sea surface cooling after the typhoon
passage, facilitating MHW dissipation with reduced thermal
stratification. Such changes in background stratification, furthermore,
significantly weakened semidiurnal internal tides due to unfavorable
condition for generation from a nearby source. These findings underscore
the importance of continuous time-series observations for monitoring
interaction processes among the extremes in a changing climate.
Realization of different-shaped electromagnetic band gap antennas for Wi-Fi applications
Authors: Premalatha Bantupalli , Srikanth Gimmadi , Pandit Rohit , Srikanth Koka
Published: April 2024

The primary objective of this paper is to conduct a comparative analysis of
diverse Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) antennas in terms of their
suitability for Wi-Fi applications operating at 5 GHz. Wi-Fi primarily
operates within the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, with the 5 GHz band
offering higher data rates and reduced interference compared to the 2.4 GHz
band. Furthermore, its larger number of available channels makes it an
optimal choice for environments with high user density. The antennas in this
study are designed with dimensions of 28.11x32.40x1.6 mm? (length x width x
height) using RT/Duroid 5880 substrate, which has a thickness of 1.6 mm and
a relative permittivity (?r) of 2.2. The integration of Electromagnetic Band
Gap structures in antenna designs has gained substantial attention due to
their unique properties that enhance antenna performance characteristics.
The paper presents sixteen distinct EBG antennas, all designed using CST
software. These antennas incorporate various EBG shapes, such as Fork,
L-shape, C-shape, Hash, and Z-shape, positioned on a rectangular patch and
in the ground plane. The study's results reveal that the Hash EBG on the
patch offers superior performance compared to other EBG types. As a result,
the Hash EBG on the patch, alongside various Z-shaped EBGs on the ground
plane, is assessed for different antenna performance parameters, including
return loss, radiation patterns, and gain. Finally, a diagonal Z-shaped EBG
antenna is designed, simulated, and tested. The antenna return loss at
5.2GHz is -48 dB The proposed antenna achieved a peak gain of 7.3 dB at
5.2GHz. The proposed antenna exhibits omnidirectional properties. The
antenna shows an efficiency of 90% at the resonant frequency. The
experimentally measured results of the designed diagonal EBG antenna have
shown satisfactory agreement and are consistent with the simulated results.
The findings of this research contribute to a better understanding of EBG
antennas potential for Wi-Fi applications in the 5 GHz frequency band.
Fast eye centre localization using combined unsupervised technics
Authors: Berrached Saliha , Berrached Nasr-Eddine
Published: April 2024

Eye movements offer precious information about persons? state. Video surveillance, marketing, driver fatigue as well as medical diagnosis assistance applications manage eye behavior. We propose a new method for efficiently detecting eye movement. In this paper, we combine circle eye model with eye feature method to improve the accuracy. A set of detectors estimate the eyes centers to increase the localization rate. As a pre-processing stage, the mean of the edges yields the center of the two eye regions. Image treatment operations reduce the ROI. A Circle Hough Transform (CHT) algorithm is adopted in a modified version as a detector to find the circle eye in the image; the circle center found represents the eye's pupil estimation. We introduced the Maximally Stable Extremal Region (MSER) as a second detector, which has never been used for eye localization. Invariant to continuous geometric transformations and affine intensity changes and detected at several scales, MSERs efficiently detect regions of interest, in our case eye regions, and precisely, their centers. Ellipses fit MSERs, and their centroid estimation match eyes center. We demonstrate that the true eye centers can be found by combining these methods. The validation of the proposed method is performed on a very challenging BioID base. The proposed approach compares well with existing state-of-the-art techniques and achieves an accuracy of 82.53% on the BioID database when the normalized error is less than 0.05, without prior knowledge or any learning model.
Peirce and the problem of qualia
Authors: Risteski Aleksandar
Published: April 2024

In this paper I will address the specifics of Peirce?s concept of qualia.
Peirce is the first philosopher to ever use the term qualia as
philosophical, but his understanding of it differs considerably from the
contemporary philosophy of mind. There are certain tendencies to present
Peirce in this regard as a forerunner of contemporary debates. Although such
an interpretation is not unfounded, I believe that it does not do full
justice to the significance of the concept for Peirce?s thought. I will try
to elucidate its importance with an adequate web of synonyms, that is, the
other important concepts in Peirce?s philosophy. The main idea of the paper
is that Peirce?s concept of qualia is not a technical term meant to tackle a
finite group of problems within an already accepted ontology, but one of the
concepts that Peirce uses to build his ontology.
Interpretation of law: From legal foundationalism to legal hermeneutics
Authors: Micic Stefan
Published: April 2024

This paper will explore the relationship between natural law theory, legal
positivism, and legal hermeneutics in interpreting legal norms. This work
investigates the transition from foundationalism, which bases law on
specific objective values, to legal hermeneutics, which emphasizes the
importance of interpretation in understanding law. The focus is on the
change in perception of law, from an idea founded on objective norms to an
understanding of law as a concept that relies on philosophical rather than
solely legal interpretation. The central question of the paper - ?What is
the essence of law?? - serves as a starting point for examining the history
and evolution of the idea of law, reevaluating its significance through the
prism of legal hermeneutics. The paper also explores how legal
interpretation is vital in the philosophy of law, highlighting the
differences between traditional theories of natural law and legal positivism
and the newer, increasingly present legal hermeneutics.
On apples, or the martyr and the bulky
Authors: Sarovic Srdjan , Popovic Una
Published: April 2024

In this essay, we will reflect upon comparative aesthetics with regard to the
thesis about so-called different art kinds, i.e. their comparison. The
analysis shows that the thesis is based upon considering the art starting
from the artwork?s appearance, as well as the artistic medium and the
technology of making the artwork supported by the medium. The analysis also
proves that the application of the same artistic method can result in
artworks in different media; since their origin is one and the same, such
artworks are akin despite the differences in the appearance. Finally, our
results confirm that the thinking about the art has to start with the
artworks, and that the art is one of the kind. On the other hand, the
kinship, as well as the particularities of individual artworks can and
should be explained by referring to the artistic method. The analysis is
done on the example of making the artworks in real and crypto space, by
applying the artistic method of exception.
Theater arts as the subject of comparative aesthetics
Authors: Ilic Vlatko
Published: April 2024

In this paper we will show how the new theoretical thought about theater,
since the beginning of the last century and the establishment of theatrology
as the academic discipline and field of research, is being based on the
comparative aesthetic perspective - on the distinction between different
arts on the one hand and the identification of the transcultural foundation
of theater arts on the other. Following the analyses of examples of
contemporary theatre and the insights that emerge from them, we will
demonstrate how the questions that rise out of theatrical practice and
theory resonate with the issues addressed in the field aesthetics, not only
the ones about artistic creation, art or its reception.

Published: April 2024

This article is dedicated to Hartmann?s stratification theory, which he
develops within his aesthetics. The first part of the article discusses
Hartmann?s idea about the two strata structure of the aesthetic object,
consisting of its foreground and background. In the second part of the
paper, an initial comparative analysis of the aesthetic objects of fine
arts, poetry, music and architecture is carried out based on his thesis
about the relationship of appearance of the background in the sensory
foreground. The last part of the paper is dedicated to the reconstruction
and interpretation of Hartmann?s more detailed scheme of primarily
background layers of the aesthetic object, and further analysis in which
this scheme is applied to the arts.

The present study was conducted during kharif (July-November, 2020) at the Department of plant pathology, N. M. College of Agriculture, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujarat, India to  isolate, purify and identify the pathogen responsible for rice bacterial blight. The pathogen was isolated from infected rice leaves and purified through streaking techniques, with its cultural and morphological characteristics utilized for identification. The analysis revealed that colonies grown on nutrient agar media exhibited traits consistent with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, appearing raised, creamy yellow, smooth, entire and buttery as cultural  characteristics and the bacterium as possessing a rod-shaped structure, gram-negative staining, encapsulation and non-spore formation as morphological characteristics. Furthermore, a pathogenicity test was conducted on the susceptible rice cultivar GR-11, cultivated in pots under controlled conditions within a net house was successfully satisfying Koch’s postulates. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the important cereal crop and a crucial dietary staple grown extensively in Gujarat, where it plays a significant role in ensuring food security and sustainability. However, rice bacterial blight remains a persistent threat, leading to substantial losses in both quantity and quality. To address this issue the investigation provided valuable insights into understanding the pathogen, thereby contributing to the development of cost-effective solutions for managing rice bacterial blight, which helps in increasing crop yield to the rice growing farmers of Gujarat.

Authors: Suraj Dr Shaini , Patil Dr Pradeep , Sangolkar Deepa , Rane Nayna
Published: April 2024

The first description of ulcerative colitis (UC) dates back to 1859. It is one of the two main types of inflammatory bowel disease. This disease affects the colonic mucosal layer where inflammation causes superficial damage. In the latter part of the 18th century, only the symptoms were recognized but little was known about its cause and treatment. But in 19th century with diagnostic advances, it was known that the disease caused ulcerations in mucosal lining which led to effectiveness in treatment. The early 20th century saw an expansion in understanding of UC and it was differentiated from other gastrointestinal diseases. There was better awareness about the disease pathophysiology and role of immune system. A surge in genetic research and gut microbiome provided the needed information about the causes of the disease. With all this knowledge, there is a definite improvement in quality of life of Ulcerative Colitis patients. This article summarizes the advances in knowledge about ulcerative colitis and its prevalence.

This study aimed to determine the morphometric performance of polled Bali cattle aged 12-15 months and the influence of the cows on the morphometrics of breeding cattle.The research material consisted of 120 head Bali cattle divided into 40 head polled cattle, 40 head with horns, and 40 cows with horns. The study was conducted in Barru District, South Sulawesi Province. The study parameters consisted of withers height, body length, and heart girth. The data were statistically analyzed using the independent sample t-test, and the effect of the morphometrics of the cows on the calves was analyzed using simple regression analysis. Measurement data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistics application. The results showed a very significant difference in the body length of polled and horned males (p<0.01). Significant differences were also found in withers height and body length between polled and horned female calves (p<0.01). Polled Bali cattle aged 12-15 months have a larger morphometric size than those with horns. It is hoped that identifying the superiority of polled Bali cattle will continue at different age statuses to compile information as material for the Indonesian National Standard for hornless Bali cattle.

Published: April 2024

This study aimed to find out the effect of different ages on the body dimensions of Bali cattle which are reared intensively to select calves. This study was designed using a completely randomized design (CRD) which consisted of 3 treatments, namely different ages of cattle with the same repetition. Based on the results of the analysis of variance, it was shown that the age of the cows had a significant effect on the body dimensions of Bali cattle which were reared intensively. Based on the least significant difference test (LSD) showed that the P3 treatment was higher than the P1 and U2 treatments. While the treatment of P1 and P2 is relatively the same. This is because P1 and P2 are the phases of bone growth while at P3 the bone growth is maximized leading to fat accumulation. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the selection of breeding stock can be carried out by taking into account the body dimensions of Bali cattle where aged 2.5-3 years have body dimensions such as body length, chest circumference, hip height, shoulder height, chest width and crotch width which are larger. better than age 1.5-2.5 and 2–2.5 years.

Published: April 2024

Litter traits and site conditions alter nutrient inputs from deciduous and evergreen forests by influencing litter decomposition processes. Here, we investigated the leaf and stem mass loss rate (MLR) of a deciduous (Tectona philippinensis) and an evergreen (Parashorea malaanonan) tree species and the factors influencing it through an intersite experiment and litterbag method in secondary forests in Lobo, Batangas and Mount Makiling Forest Reserve (MMFR). Variations in initial litter quality (leaf area, specific leaf area (SLA), leaf thickness, vein density), and site factors (light intensity and temperature) were assessed. P. malaanonan has a lower SLA and vein density than T. philippinensis. The leaf and stem MLR were significantly higher in the mixed litter (44.09–57.83%) than that of a single-species litter of either T. philippinensis (28.16–41.83%) or P. malaanonan (33.60–47.66%). The leaf MLR of T. philippinensis was greater when placed in Lobo (where the litter originated) than at a different site (i.e., MMFR). Moreover, leaf litter decomposition was faster in T. philippinensis than in P. malaanonan, particularly during the rainy season. Overall, the study showed that litter decomposition in deciduous and evergreen differed across sites due to variations in litter quality and environmental variables.

Introduction: Workplace outcomes are significant not only for productivity and profitability but also for the value of the process and the experience elements involved in reaching these objectives. There is a continuous discussion between employers and employees regarding the concept of the workplace, concentrating on a thorough understanding of labor and its physical surroundings. This study focuses on the connection with the natural world, specifically how plants can improve aesthetics and support well-being in the built environment. The study explores the implementation of biophilic design to combat sick-building syndrome by integrating a living wall into workplace interiors. Methods: The study employs a parametric design approach to identify a design solution for incorporating a living wall into the workplace. This approach optimizes the correlation between multiple parameters influencing the design outcome. This approach operates on two levels: firstly, an analogical design process is employed to establish the form of green wall units and generate various iterations based on generation parameters derived from the natural concept source. Secondly, interactivity is incorporated to enhance users’ perception of the green wall and its different states, ultimately leading to the creation of a unique ambiance suitable for diverse functions or activities within the space. Results: The results section would detail the specific outcomes of employing the parametric design approach, including the successful establishment of green wall units’ forms, the generation of various iterations, and the enhancement of user perception through interactivity. The effectiveness of these design solutions in creating a unique ambiance and optimizing user engagement within the workplace is presented.

The study employed methods of clinical and paraclinical medical examination and statistical mathematics to investigate the current status of partial rupture of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in sports players examined at An Sinh Hospital, Tan Son Nhat Hospital and Gia An Hospital (n = 33). The results of both clinical and paraclinical tests clearly showed that partial rupture of the ACL had a significant impact on the patients’ knee joint function. However, signs such as pain level were not too large (only average) making the patients easy to get subjective. If not treated promptly, the ACL could be completely ruptured. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the screening of ACL to avoid missing lesions. Furthermore, if treated early, the remaining ACL should be a good foundation for the support and orientation of collagen fiber proliferation. As a result, it is necessary to have early intervention measures to improve and restore knee function helping patients return to sports activities soon.

This research from 2016 to 2022 intends to understand the relationship between the Islamic banking sector in Indonesia, company value, where profitability is the mediator between non-performing loans and third-party funds, and interest rates. This methodology uses purposive sampling to produce nine samples representing Islamic financial institutions. The criteria is an annual banking report, which can be obtained on the bank's official website or at the OJK. The quantitative descriptive methodology used in this research consists of the Sobel test and panel data regression analysis. Data analysis findings show that while profitability and the BI rate impact a company's value less, non-performing loans and third-party funding do. Profitability is unaffected by BI rates, non-performing loans, and third-party funding. Profitability does not mitigate the effect of third-party financing, non-performing loans, and the BI rate on a company's value.

Makanan halal menjadi perhatian khusus karena selain sebagai kebutuhan sehari-hari, makanan halal juga menjamin kebaikan, kebersihan dan manfaatnya bagi tubuh. Keterjaminan halal dari suatu produk makanan memerlukan sertifikasi dari lembaga yang berwenang. Saat ini pemerintah Negara Indonesia mencanangkan program sertifikasi halal bagi produk makan dan minuman melalui program sertifikasi halal gratis (SEHATI) melalui skema self-declare. Program ini memiliki 1 Juta kuota sertifikat halal dan membutuhkan pendamping proses produk halal (PPH) dalam pengajuannya. Akan tetapi pemerataan dan ketersebaran informasi terhadap program SEHATI belum maksimal dikarenakan terbatas nya media dan sumber daya manusia.
