Detaching the Actor’s Face: Control and Usage of the Face as an Image-object
Authors: Runcanu Andrei
Published: July 2024

This article explores the extent to which the actor’s face has impacted society to the point that it is no longer a personal possession and that its usage and context are difficult to control. I bring together perspectives from visual studies and celebrity studies to address the issues of face borrowing and identification. I examine the engagement of the general public with the actor’s face in an attempt to create the basis for a critical analysis. I propose viewing the actor’s face as an image-object, detached from the physical body and able to travel without the actual presence of the actor. Three defining stages are identified in social behaviour that are a direct result of capturing the face in a photograph: detaching, owning and wearing the face. The need for intimacy and identification that governs the relationship between audiences and celebrities has an effect on the handling of images of actors. Furthermore, this article investigates the concurrence of technological advancements that allow individuals to use actors’ faces for shaping their own identities and highlights the danger that actors are facing as the rise of artificial intelligence can render them as replicable digital assets.

Published: July 2024

Purpose

This study aims to explore how the microarchitectural features of lacunae and perilacunar zones impact the biomechanics of microdamage accumulation in cortical bone, crucial for understanding bone disorders' pathogenesis and developing preventive measures.

Methods

Utilizing the phase-field finite element method, the study analyzed three bone unit models with varying microarchitecture: one without lacunae, one with lacunae, and one including perilacunar zones, to assess their effects on cortical bone's biomechanical properties.

Results

The presence of lacunae was found to increase microcrack initiation risk, acting as nucleation points and accelerating microcrack propagation. Proximity to Haversian canals exacerbated stress concentration, speeding microdamage progression. Conversely, perilacunar zones mitigated both initiation and propagation. An elevated critical energy release rate correlated with slower crack growth and reduced damage severity.

Conclusions

The research sheds light on the intricate mechanisms governing microcrack behavior in compact bone, highlighting the significant role of bone's microarchitectural features in its biomechanical response to microdamage. These insights are valuable for the development of strategies to prevent and treat bone-related disorders.

Authors: Honglong Yu  , Yuehu Wu  , Xuefeng Feng  , Yuan He  , Qilian Xie  , Hu Peng
Published: July 2024

Purpose

The utilization of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and Impella has been suggested as means of left ventricular unloading in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) patients. This study aims to assess the local hemodynamic alterations in VA-ECMO patients through simulation analyses.

Methods

In this study, a 0D-3D multiscale model was developed, wherein resistance conditions were employed to define the flow-pressure relationship. An idealized model was employed for the aorta, and simulations were conducted to contrast the hemodynamics supported by two configurations: VA-ECMO combined with IABP, and VA-ECMO combined with Impella.

Results

Relative to VA-ECMO alone, the combination treatment had the following differences:(1) Overall mean mass flow rate increased significantly when combined with Impella and did not change significantly when combined with IABP. Blood flow pulsatility was the strongest in ECMO+IABP, and blood flow pulsatility was significantly suppressed in ECMO+Impella. (2) For all arterial inlets, HI was decreased with ECMO+Impella and increased with ECMO+IABP. (3) The flow field did not change much with ECMO+IABP, with better blood flow compliance, whereas the flow field was relatively more chaotic and disorganized with ECMO+Impella. (4) The difference between shear stress values in ECMO+IABP and ECMO alone was small, and ECMO+Impella (P6) had the largest shear stress values.

Conclusions

Variances in hemodynamic efficacy between VA-ECMO combined with IABP and VA-ECMO combined with Impella may underlie divergent prognoses and complications. The approach to ventricular unloading during ECMO and the degree of support should be meticulously tailored to individual patient conditions, as they represent pivotal factors influencing vascular complications.
Understanding the Role of Serendipity and Savoring on Travelers’ Life Satisfa
Authors: Kwon Jangwook , Lee Jaeeun
Published: July 2024

This study challenges the top-down theory’s view that travel does not lead to sustained increases in life satisfaction. The impact of travel experience factors on life satisfaction before, during, and after travel was longitudinally evaluated among 252 young travelers (aged 20‐30
years). The survey results showed that expectations before the trip, serendipity during the trip, and savoring after the trip affected life satisfaction directly or indirectly. In particular, the influence of savoring after travel on life satisfaction was much higher than that associated with
travel satisfaction. In addition, the effect of travel satisfaction on savoring was nonsignificant, while that of serendipity was significant. Thus, beyond travel satisfaction, serendipity and savoring offer alternative paths to amplify life satisfaction derived from travel experiences.

Authors: Yoerizta Ratu An Nissa’ , Arina Widya Murni
Published: July 2024

Background: Chronic pain and sleep disorders frequently co-occur, exacerbating each other in a vicious cycle. This meta-analysis aimed to identify and quantify risk factors associated with sleep disorders in individuals experiencing chronic pain.
Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted from January 2018 to June 2024. Studies assessing sleep disorders (insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome) in adults with chronic pain (non-cancer pain lasting >3 months) were included. Data on demographics, pain characteristics, sleep measures, and potential risk factors were extracted. Meta-analyses were performed using random-effects models to estimate pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Results: Twenty-seven studies (n = 12,453 participants) met the inclusion criteria. Chronic pain significantly increased the odds of having any sleep disorder (OR 2.83, 95% CI 2.19-3.65). Specific risk factors identified included: Female gender: OR 1.41 (95% CI 1.18-1.67); Higher pain intensity: OR 1.15 per 1-unit increase on a 0-10 scale (95% CI 1.08-1.23); Longer pain duration: OR 1.04 per year (95% CI 1.01-1.07); Presence of depression or anxiety: OR 2.32 (95% CI 1.85-2.91); Use of opioid medications: OR 1.58 (95% CI 1.23-2.04).
Conclusion: Chronic pain is a substantial risk factor for sleep disorders. Gender, pain intensity, duration, comorbid mental health conditions, and opioid use emerged as modifiable risk factors. Targeted interventions addressing these factors may improve sleep outcomes in individuals with chronic pain.
Analysis of Risk Factors and The Impact of Nitric Oxide (NO) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) Levels on Lung Function: A Comparative Study of Palm Oil Factory Workers and the Community in Kuantan Mudik District, Riau, Indonesia
Authors: Herdika Yusri , Indi Esha Siregar  , Suyanto
Published: July 2024

Background: Air pollution, particularly from industrial sources like palm oil factories, poses a significant risk to respiratory health. This study aimed to investigate the impact of nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) exposure on lung function in palm oil factory workers and compare it to the lung function of individuals in the surrounding community.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Kuantan Mudik District, Riau, Indonesia. One hundred palm oil factory workers with a minimum of two years of employment and 100 community members not occupationally exposed to NO and CO were recruited. Lung function was assessed using spirometry, and NO and CO levels were measured using specialized analyzers. Participants completed the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS) questionnaire, and demographic and clinical data were collected. Statistical analyses included univariate, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression.
Results: Factory workers exhibited significantly higher levels of NO (p=0.000) and a higher prevalence of restrictive lung function (17%) compared to the community members (3%). Multivariate analysis identified NO exposure as the most significant risk factor for restrictive lung function (p=0.005). Each unit increase in NO was associated with a 1.12-fold increased risk of restrictive lung function. CO exposure, age, gender, smoking history, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) were not significantly associated with lung function impairment in this study.
Conclusion: Occupational exposure to NO in palm oil factories is a significant risk factor for restrictive lung function impairment. Regular monitoring of NO levels and the implementation of effective control measures are crucial to protect the respiratory health of palm oil factory workers.

Published: July 2024

Improvements in the efficiency and precision of using the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor infusion fluid volumes have been particularly beneficial to the health sector. It is now feasible to create intelligent solutions that replace labor-intensive and error-prone manual techniques with the aid of affordable devices like the ESP8266 and accurate sensors. Through the use of an internet connection, the server may easily receive data on the volume of infusion fluids collected by the ESP8266-based system and precision sensors. This enables remote access to real-time monitoring using a web platform. The main advantage of this technology is that it allows medical personnel to adequately monitor patients even when they are nearm not them. This reduces patient distraction and gives patients more time to focus on important medical tasks. By using this technology, healthcare personnel can improve the quality of treatment they give by reducing the chance of human error when calculating and changing IV bags. When medical staff has access to dependable and real-time data updates, they can manage IV fluid management more skillfully and respond to changes in patient situations more quickly. All things considered, these advancements represent significant strides forward in the administration of intravenous fluids, offering more accurate, effective, and conveniently accessible solutions that elevate the bar for healthcare overall

Published: July 2024

If businesses wish to compete in the industrial world, they must produce quality and process results. No matter how big or little, some goods will always fail to generate or be rejected in a production process. In this case, companies in the automobile sector have noticed an increase in the number of pinholes that have been returned during the past three months. The company established a maximum reject rate of 0.9% each month based on the rejected data; from May to July, the average reject rate was 0.23%. Finding the factors causing the surge in pinhole rejects that occurred between May and July is the aim of this investigation. The analysis showed that the increase in pinhole rejects was caused by a variety of variables, including machine, process, and human factors. Further examination disclosed alterations to the device's configuration and software, along with the operator's persistent incapacity to comprehend the process. As operations become less efficient, repair components build up in the manufacturing line area. As a result, an improvement plan is needed, which is put into action by giving operator training and rearranging the machine and its software according to process requirements. Operators with a greater understanding of the process yield better results and higher productivity. As a result, operator confidence will rise along with performance. It was discovered that after developments in the field of human resource development, the number of rejections had dropped. Before the repair was finished, the average reject from May to July 2023 was 0.23%; following the repair, the average reject from August to October 2023 was 0.09%

Published: July 2024

In the Indonesian archipelago, boats play a major role in people's daily mobility. In the realm of transportation, especially on sea vessels, it is crucial to keep an eye on the circumstances and state of affairs when traveling long distances. The objective of this study is to use an optocoupler sensor based on the Internet of Things (IoT) and a real-time monitoring technique to track the speed of an electric boat. This instrument can be tested using three different treatments: low-level gas, medium-level gas, and high-level gas with five repetitions. Motor speed was measured at 938 Rpm with a Knot difference of 0.7 utilizing XSpeed and an optocoupler sensor for low-speed measurements. Using an optocoupler sensor and XSpeed, the medium speed tests yielded a motor speed of 1205.6 Rpm and a Knot difference of 1.7. Using an optocoupler sensor and XSpeed, high-speed measurements yielded a motor speed of 1985.4 Rpm and a Knot difference of 1.2. Because the Blynk application may display data of both boat speed and motor rotational speed, readings obtained from the optocoupler sensor yield higher accuracy than those obtained from the comparison application XSpeed

Authors: Lina Aulia  , Almirah Amanda Putri  , M Zaky Hadi
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study is to standardize the workplace to meet CV ND Konveksi's goals for working hours. The variety of t-shirt production process timings at CV ND Konveksi, the unknown production process time for each type of t-shirt, and the nonconformity of Standard Operational Procedures (SOP) with actual work techniques are all impacted by current work environment issues. Using process activity mapping, observations were conducted of every step in the t-shirt production process to gather data for the study. By classifying the value of operations into three categories—value added, no value added, and no value added but necessary—the outcomes of data processing are assessed. Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is used to perform a root cause analysis based on the activity categories whose values have been determined. The identification of the root cause of the issue was based on the source of the problem that was experienced. This root cause was the absence of standardization in the work environment, which led to the formation of wasteful practices such as searching. The 5S principle (seiri, seiton, seiso, seiketsu, and shitsuke) is applied in the work environment standardization strategy. When CV ND Konveksi Lampung adopted the 5S program, performance productivity increased by 10%, the value ratio decreased by reducing NNVA activities by 22 and NVA by 13, and the processing time efficiency increased by 30%, from 19.7 minutes to 13.9 minutes for the production of a single t-shirt. Another result was activity efficiency, which came in at 22%. Of the activities, 15 could be deleted because they contributed no value

Published: July 2024

Roko SN04 Metal Sensor technology and equipment are evolving and growing more advanced with time. One type of equipment that needs to consider both the user's safety and the equipment's development and safety is technological equipment used in the military. The soldiers can shoot and do so with skill. As a result, soldiers must be able to move swiftly against the enemy and vigilant when utilizing combat equipment to ensure that it is used correctly and for its intended purpose. Nevertheless, there are still several fighting tools in the military that require a lot of physical labor, making them exceedingly inefficient for the user. One such tool is the portable magazine for 5.56-millimeter ammunition. This study employed the 4D methodology, which stands for Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. Development research is a part of this methodology. A device for loading magazines has been created to make it easier for soldiers to move in situations where loading bullets by hand is still risky and impractical. The Roko SN04 sensor is used in the construction of this tool. One sensor that can be used as a metal detector is the Roko SN04. This magazine refill gadget uses a DC motor as a mechanic and an Arduino as a control to randomly arrange ammunition. This study's success rate was 96.67%

Sterilization of reusable medical devices (RMD) is considered as one of the major components of healthcare associated infection (HAI) prevention that should be strictly maintained. Microorganisms responsible for HAI can be transmitted from a common inanimate vehicle such as medical RMD to patients. Sterilization is a complete process with a set of successive steps to finally achieve a sterile RMD. In addition to these steps, which must be carefully controlled, the whole environment of this process should also conform to quality and security standards and criteria in order to ensure a robust sterilization process and a secure RMD. Therefore, a complete and exhaustive evaluation of this process is highly recommended. This evaluation aimed firstly to examine the inventory of sterilization process, architecture, and environment as well as to present recommendations to be adopted to adjust the practices and failures recorded accordingly.

Authors: Mendoza Álcala José  Manuel , Muñoz Ochoa Mauricio , Rodríguez Montesinos Yoloxochitl Elizabeth , Arvizu Higuera Dora Luz
Published: July 2024

Algae are exposed to substantial stress. In response, these organisms have developed efficient defense systems, such as protective secondary metabolite synthesis, making algae a primary source of bioactive compounds with a wide spectrum of biological activities. Thus, algae show potential for use in treatments of thrombotic, infectious, and chronic degenerative diseases. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the phytochemical compounds and pharmacological activity of an extract obtained from Sargassum lapazeanum. Algae were collected in the intertidal zone of Tarabillas beach (Bahía de La Paz, BCS). The biological activities of an ethanolic extract and its fractions were evaluated using chromatographic techniques. In addition, a bioautographic assay of hemolytic activity was conducted, and phytochemical profiles and acute toxicity in Artemia franciscana were evaluated. The relationships among the main extract components were also determined. The ethanolic extract exhibited significant antioxidant and hemolytic activity, which was mainly attributed to its content of anthrones, anthraquinones, and unsaturated triterpenes. Its toxicological activity reached an LC50 value of 225.1 μg mL-1, which was mainly attributed to alkaloids, flavonoids, anthrones, and saponins. The results suggest that Sargassum lapazeanum, which is endemic to the Gulf of California, has great pharmacological potential with biomedical applications.

This article provides information on the results of studying the optimal planting scheme for obtaining high and quality yields from cucumber hybrids in an unheated greenhouse. In order to increase the yield of cucumbers and grow crops quickly, it is necessary to ensure the optimal planting scheme of the plant. Placement scheme and number of plants have an effect on increasing yield and improving its quality. Therefore, the study of feeding area and planting pattern will always remain the main focus of research. Studying the relationship of planted plants to each other is a theoretical basis for developing a feeding area and a planting scheme.

pKalculator: A pKa predictor for C–H bonds
Authors: Borup Rasmus M , Ree Nicolai , Jensen Jan H
Published: July 2024

Determining the pKa values of various C–H sites in organic molecules offers valuable insights for synthetic chemists in predicting reaction sites. As molecular complexity increases, this task becomes more challenging. This paper introduces pKalculator, a quantum chemistry (QM)-based workflow for automatic computations of C–H pKa values, which is used to generate a training dataset for a machine learning (ML) model. The QM workflow is benchmarked against 695 experimentally determined C–H pKa values in DMSO. The ML model is trained on a diverse dataset of 775 molecules with 3910 C–H sites. Our ML model predicts C–H pKa values with a mean absolute error (MAE) and a root mean squared error (RMSE) of 1.24 and 2.15 pKa units, respectively. Furthermore, we employ our model on 1043 pKa-dependent reactions (aldol, Claisen, and Michael) and successfully indicate the reaction sites with a Matthew’s correlation coefficient (MCC) of 0.82.

A comparative study is presented between two advanced flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) systems designed for monitoring temperature within storage containers across various industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, automotive, and defense. The first system, a copper-flex system (CFS), employs an 88.9 µm polyimide substrate with 35 µm thick copper traces, coated with a 12.5 µm polyimide solder mask. The second system, a printed-flex system (PFS), utilizes a 127 µm polyimide substrate with high-temperature resistance and tensile strength. Conductive silver ink was screen-printed on the PFS substrate, and electronic components including a temperature sensor were attached. Functional and reliability tests were performed to check the accuracy and durability of the temperature sensor. Further, environmental and mechanical characterizations including moisture and insulation resistance, corrosion, elongation, bending, and terminal bond strength tests were performed based on ASTM and IPC-TM650 standards. Moisture and insulation resistance test on the PFS test coupons without a coating layer indicated stable resistance of approximately 18 MΩ, while permanent color change indicated oxidation of copper on uncoated CFS test coupons. After 72 hours of corrosion test, both the CFS and PFS “meander line” test coupons covered with polyimide showed negligible change in weight and resistance, approximately 0.35%. A Young’s modulus of 7.17 GPa and 2.6 GPa was calculated from the elongation test for the CFS and PFS, respectively. Bending tests on PFS revealed negligible average resistance change (0.1%) during 180° bending cycles, while no impact was recorded on the CFS. During the terminal bond strength test, soldered wires detached from the CFS test coupons at an average force of 43 N, while it was 3.8 N on the PFS test coupons. Both systems with polyimide coating layer demonstrate robustness and reliability for diverse applications in various industries.
Intermetallic Compounds in Solder Alloys: Common Misconceptions
Authors: Hillman David , Pearson Tim , Coyle Richard
Published: July 2024

Intermetallic compounds (IMC) or intermediate phases are formed between two or more metallic elements in many metal alloy systems. During soldering, an IMC is formed at the soldered interface as the molten solder reacts with an element in the substrate. IMCs also can form within the bulk solder as the joint solidifies. IMCs have critical roles in the solder joint quality and reliability. Unlike most metal alloys, an intermetallic compound typically has a fixed stoichiometry and is in variance with the conventional phases or constituents in the metal system (e.g., alpha and beta). IMCs have a different crystal structure than any of its constituents and some but never all the characteristics and properties of its constituents. Ductility is an important solder joint property, and the low intrinsic ductility of IMCs is associated with brittle behavior and reliability risk in service. However, a review of published solder field failures shows little evidence that IMC properties or IMC evolution under service conditions reduce solder joint reliability. Most IMC-induced solder joint failures are found to result from incorrect material specification or uncontrolled soldering processes. This paper describes the IMCs that occur typically in eutectic, Sn63Pb37 solder and near-eutectic SAC305 or other tin-based Pb-free solder alloys, including how they impact solder joint reliability. The paper also describes the potential impact of IMCs on the solder joint reliability for the newest generation of Pb-free high-performance solder alloys.
Debating Holy Remains: a Discourse on Islamic Relics between the Sufi and Salafi Scholars
Authors: Gambari Yusuph Dauda
Published: July 2024

Relics of holy people have been attractive among Muslims of all generations due to their mundane and spiritual importance. Sufi scholars are, especially, notable for their particular interest in relics, which form an integral part of their beliefs and practices. They venerate relics through which they seek blessing (tabāruk) and intercession (tawāṣul), among others. Meanwhile, the modern Salafi scholars criticized the Sufis’ perspective on relics, claiming that their actions constitute bid’ah (innovation), kufr (infidelity), and syirk (associating partners with Allah). This paper, therefore, examined the modern Salafis’ criticism of the religious attitudes of the Sufis on relics. It adopted both historical and exegetical methods to achieve the set objectives. It has been discovered that relics have spiritual values, and Muslims of all generations, especially the companions (ṣahābah), have used them for different spiritual purposes. It is also clear that both the Salafis and Sufis venerate and seek blessing from the relics, though Sufis are more prominent in the practice. The paper identified excessiveness and arbitrariness in the disposition of the Sufis to the relics, which engendered deification of them as the yardstick for the Salafis’ criticisms. Therefore, it concluded that advocacy for the desecration of relics on the part of modern Salafi scholars lacks merits. Instead, machinery to checkmate arbitrariness should be advocated for.
