Published: December 2023

An alloy wheel is generally a symmetrically shaped part integral to a vehicle because its weight and strength can improve driving performance. Therefore, alloy wheel design is essential, and a novel design method should be considered. Currently, the Multi-Additional Sampling Efficient Global Optimization (MAs-EGO) has been proposed and widely implemented in various fields of engineering design. This study employed a surrogate model to maximize Expected Hypervolume Improvement (EHVI) for multi-objectives by increasing multi-sampling per iteration to update a surrogate model and evaluate an optimal point for alloy wheel design. Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) was used to generate an initial design of an alloy wheel, including the thickness and width of the spoke wheel. The maximum principal stress according to the dynamic cornering fatigue simulation was then evaluated for risk of failure using Finite Element (FE) analysis. The objectives were to minimize both the principal stress and weight of the symmetric alloy wheel. The Kriging method was used to construct a surrogate model, including a Genetic Algorithm (GA), which was performed to maximize hypervolume improvement to explore the next additional sampling point, and that point was also an optimal point for the process when computation had converged. Finally, FE results were validated through a designed apparatus to confirm the numerical solution. The results exhibit thatMulti-Additional Sampling Efficient Global Optimization can achieve an optimal alloy shape. The maximum principal stress distribution occurs in the spoke area and exhibits a symmetrical pattern around the axis following the cyclic bending load. The optimal design point of the alloy wheel can reduce 20.181% and 3.176% of principal stress and weight, respectively, compared to the initial design. The experimental results are consistent trend in the same direction as FEA results.

Published: December 2023

Current physical systems are built in more that one coordinate: for example, electrical power systems, aeronautical systems and robotic systems can be modeled in multibond graphs (MBG). However, in these systems, some elements use only one axis or dimension—for example, actuators and controllers—which can be modeled in bond graphs (BG). Therefore, in this paper, modeling of systems in multibond graphs and bond graphs (MBG-BG) is presented. Likewise, the junction structure of systems represented by (MBG-BG) is introduced. From this structure, mathematical modeling in the state space is presented. Likewise, modeling of systems on a platform (MBG-BG) can be seen as symmetric to the mathematical model that represents these systems. Finally, a synchronous generator modeled by (MBG-BG) as a case study is developed, and simulation results using 20-Sim software are shown. Furthermore, an electrical power system connected to the power supply of a DC motor as another case study is explained.
A Maturity Model for Diagnosing the Capabilities of Smart Factory Solution Suppliers and Its Pilot Application
Authors: Cha Cheol-Won , Lee Jeongcheol , Jun Sungbum , Kang Keumseok , Chang Tai-Woo
Published: December 2023

For the successful and sustainable deployment and diffusion of smart factories, both the capabilities of the adopters who operate the factories and the capabilities of the suppliers who supply information technology and equipment play very important roles. However, since the existing models for diagnosing the capabilities of smart factories are mainly focused on evaluating the capabilities of the manufacturing companies themselves, such as technological capabilities and digital transformation, there are not many models that diagnose the supply capabilities of suppliers from the perspective of demand companies. Unlike models that diagnose the level of smart factories, when diagnosing the capabilities of suppliers, various factors such as supply experience and management capabilities must be comprehensively evaluated in addition to the capabilities of the company itself. Therefore, this study proposes a new model to diagnose the capabilities of suppliers from the perspective of adopters who want to build smart factories and verifies the validity of the model by applying the model for a pilot diagnosis for 32 suppliers. In addition, based on the survey results obtained from both adopters and suppliers participating in the pilot diagnoses, this study proposes an institutionalization plan for capability diagnosis.
Laplace Transform-Based Modelling, Surge Energy Distribution, and Experimental Validation of a Supercapacitor Transient Suppressor
Authors: Silva Thotabaddadurage Sadeeshvara
Published: December 2023

The discovery of the transient-surge-withstanding capability of electrochemical dual-layer capacitors (EDLCs) led to the development of a unique, commercially beneficial circuit topology known as a supercapacitor transient suppressor (STS). Despite its low component count, the new design consists of a transient-absorbing magnetic core which takes the form of a coupled inductor placed between the AC-main- and load-side varistors. With an introduction to the structural features of metal oxide varistors (MOVs), gas tubes, thyristors, and EDLCs, this research presents a frequency (S)-domain analysis of an STS circuit to accurately model the surge propagation through its coupled inductor. Transient energy distribution trends among STS components are estimated in this paper, with an emphasis on peak energies absorbed and dissipated by the various inductive, capacitive, and resistive circuit elements. Moreover, this study reveals STS transient-mode test waveforms validated by a standard lightning surge simulator with supporting simulation plots based on LTSpice numerical techniques. Both experimental and simulation results are consistent, with the analytical findings showing 90% of the peak transient propagating through the primary coil, whereas only 10% is shared into the secondary coil of the coupled inductor. In addition, it is proven that the two STS MOVs dissipate over 50% of the transient energy for a standard 6 kV/3 kA combinational surge, while the magnetic core absorbs over 20% of the energy. All test procedures conducted during this research adhere to IEEE C62.41/IEC 61000-4-5 standards.

Published: December 2023

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 87% of Asian Americans had received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine as of July 2023. The purpose of this study is to identify the sources of information, preferred vaccine types, and levels of satisfaction related to COVID-19 vaccination among Chinese Americans, the largest subgroup of Asian immigrants living in the U.S. Our survey data were collected from 241 Chinese American early adopters of the COVID-19 vaccine, who completed at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine in June 2021. Our results indicated that their major information sources regarding COVID-19 vaccination included health officials and authorities, local news, family/friends/co-workers, social media platforms, and healthcare professionals. More than half of the participants expressed a preference for the Pfizer-BioNTech (New York, U.S.) vaccine based on the primary considerations of safety, efficacy, credibility of the developer, and availability. A majority of the participants felt satisfied with their experience of receiving the COVID-19 vaccination. Participants with higher levels of self-efficacy and subjective norms related to receiving the COVID-19 vaccine were more likely to express satisfaction with the vaccination. These findings provide valuable insights into Chinese Americans’ information sources, vaccine preferences, and satisfaction levels regarding COVID-19 vaccination. This knowledge can help guide future vaccination interventions and campaigns.
Leptospira Lipid A Is a Potent Adjuvant That Induces Sterilizing Immunity against Leptospirosis
Authors: Varma Vivek P. , Kadivella Mohammad , Kavela Sridhar , Faisal Syed M.
Published: December 2023

Leptospirosis is a globally significant zoonotic disease. The current inactivated vaccine offers protection against specific serovars but does not provide complete immunity. Various surface antigens, such as Leptospira immunoglobulin-like proteins (LigA and LigB), have been identified as potential subunit vaccine candidates. However, these antigens require potent adjuvants for effectiveness. Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPSs), including lipid A, are a well-known immunostimulant, and clinical adjuvants often contain monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA). Being less endotoxic, we investigated the adjuvant properties of lipid A isolated from L. interrogans serovar Pomona (PLA) in activating innate immunity and enhancing antigen-specific adaptive immune responses. PLA activated macrophages to a similar degree as MPLA, albeit at a higher dose, suggesting that it is less potent in stimulation than MPLA. Mice immunized with a variable portion of LigA (LAV) combined with alum and PLA (LAV-alum-PLA) exhibited significantly higher levels of LAV-specific humoral and cellular immune responses compared to alum alone but similar to those induced by alum-MPLA. The adjuvant activity of PLA resembles that of MPLA and is primarily achieved through the increased recruitment, activation, and uptake of antigens by innate immune cells. Furthermore, like MPLA, PLA formulation establishes a long-lasting memory response. Notably, PLA demonstrated superior potency than MPLA formulation and provided sterilizing immunity against the leptospirosis in a hamster model. Overall, our study sheds light on the adjuvant properties of Leptospira lipid A and offers promising avenues for developing LPS-based vaccines against this devastating zoonotic disease.
Bioaerosols in Wastewater Treatment Plants: Trends, Recent Advances, and the Influence of SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak

Published: December 2023

Bioaerosol emission at various WWTP treatment units has drawn attention due to their potential negative impacts on human health. This study conducted a bibliometric analysis of the global research on bioaerosol emissions from WWTPs from 1995 to 2022. The Scopus database was used to identify relevant articles and research trends, major contributors in the field, and recent developments. The study examined 122 articles in the field of bioaerosols in WWTPs. The analysis findings showed that publications and citations peaked in 2022, with values of 25 and 818, respectively. At the beginning of the study period, the USA, Poland, and Italy led the publications’ ranking, but with time, China emerged as the most influential country in the field. Recent advances in the field have revealed that spectral intensity bioaerosol sensors have contributed to the faster and more reliable identification and classification of bioaerosols. It was also observed that probabilistic techniques relying on mathematical models and assumptions to ascertain the risks associated with bioaerosols may result in false interpretations. Despite their high cost, epidemiological studies were best for assessing plant workers’ health risks. The outbreak has raised questions about accurately evaluating and modeling SARS-CoV-2 persistence, infectivity, and aerosolization over WWTP sites and environmental factors. Finally, the study highlighted the potential of three control treatment approaches: carbon absorption, UV irradiation, and ozone treatments, which proved efficient in reducing bioaerosol emissions.

Published: December 2023

The current paper defines a framework for the introduction of automated frequency restoration reserve services, enabled by vehicle-to-grid technology, into the business model of an entity owning and operating a network of semi-public Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment. It assesses the profitability of this introduction by performing a case study based on the real-life electric vehicle charging data from the EVSE network located in a hospital parking lot. From the results of the study, it is clearly visible that the introduction of vehicle-to-grid-enabled automated frequency restoration reserve services has a significant positive incremental profitability; however, this is heavily dependent on the plug-in ratio of the charging network, determined by electric vehicle users’ behavior.

Neste artigo, foi discutido as áreas corticais envolvidas no processamento visual, como o córtex visual primário (área V1) e as áreas visual secundária e associativa. Essas áreas desempenham papéis distintos na análise de características visuais, como forma, cor e movimento. Além disso, foi destacado a importância de diferentes abordagens para analisar dados de atividade neural e resposta a estímulos visuais.  Conclui-se que a integração de diferentes técnicas de análise, como séries temporais, curva ROC e modelos de rede, pode ampliar o escopo de investigação dos processos de percepção visual. Essas abordagens fornecem insights valiosos sobre a organização e o funcionamento do córtex visual em diferentes níveis de processamento. A aplicação dessas técnicas em estudos de percepção visual pode contribuir para uma compreensão mais profunda dos mecanismos envolvidos na formação da experiência visual.
Les armées françaises et l'observation à partir de la troisième dimension. Du ballon au satellite.
Authors: Carlier Claude
Published: December 2023

Gathering intelligence on an adversary has always been a vital element of success. Man’s conquest of aerospace (the Third Dimension), beginning in 1783, opened up fresh perspectives. Reconnaissance was one of the first missions given to lighter-than-air vessels, balloons and dirigibles and then, from 1909, to aeroplanes. A half-century later the Third Dimension experienced an almost-limitless expansion with the conquest of space. Almost another fifty years on, new means to utilise the Third Dimension started to come into service with UAVs (known sometimes as drones).

New aerospace military reconnaissance systems are increasingly capable, complex to operationalise, and very expensive. The naval, army and air force military budgets must face up to additional costs because the new assets do not always simply replace older ones, they add to them. The development of such assets, by France and the European Union, is strategically crucial. A lack will condemn them to paralysis.
La menace stratégique sur la France à l'ère nucléaire : les instructions personnelles et secrètes de 1967 et 1974
Authors: Soutou Georges-Henri
Published: December 2023

Under the Fifth Republic, defence policy at the very highest level - the politico-strategic - is the domain of the Head of State. Threat evaluations depend on him. From him, through the Defence Committee, stems the definition of the principal lines of French defence policy dictated by those threats, and the choice of the means of response. It is then the government's business to implement the choices that have been selected. The President of the Republic is therefore at the heart of politico-strategic decisionmaking. This underlines the interest of the two unpublished documents presented here : a Personal and Secret Instruction signed by de Gaule on 24 January 1967 and an equivalent text from Georges Pompidou dating from 1 February 1974, entitled 'France's defence policy'.

The two texts articulate very similar directions for policy, essentially hinging on the notion of national independence and the strategic and nuclear consequences of this. At the same time, however, there are important differences between de Gaulle's 'Instruction' and that of Pompidou. These differences doubtless indicate a major divergence of approach between the two men as regards the hierarchy of threats facing France, and their interpretation. Hence the politico-strategic approach, that seeks to determine the relationship between external policy and strategy, is an essential analytical tool here.

Published: December 2023

In the article we’d the aim to study challenges of on-line studying, to show the technical characteristics of online learning, to single out the pedagogical and psychological features of online learning. So, we described teaching method which are in a great degree enriched by the integration of information technologies into them; also, we defined the concept of “information and communication technology”; we showed the most commonly used information and communication technology’s method for assessing learner’s listening skills and giving feedback; we presented the field of information and different communication technologies.

The technical characteristics of online learning are: virtuality / conventionality of educational space and time; interactivity of educational methods and non-linearity of the communicative process, dispersion of its structure, synchronicity of communicative acts; the presence of an electronic signal, which determines the possibility of constant access to the Internet; distance and indirectness of online learning; preservation of the transcript of the educational process, the opportunity for teachers and students to reflect on their own activities; ease of updating and changing the content of text material and perceived educational material, which determine the efficiency of students’ performance of tasks and the ways of solving problems; more effective process of subject-subject interaction, openness in communication; conditional socialization; the possibility of simultaneous electronic search and syndication and the process of perceiving new information.

We also singled out the pedagogical and psychological features of online learning, such as: significant limitation of the person’s sensory experience to visual and auditory ones; a sense of a space and time, which is more different from a real image of the world; the presence of students in a state of continuous distracted attention, the feeling of being constantly overloaded with unnecessary educational material; the appearance of negative emotions in the case of rather limited access to wider cyberspace; the implementation of permanent recording of the results of cyber activity; multifacetedness and multiplicity of personality, virtual identity, disinhibition of “online self”; alignment of personal statuses and profiles, unlimited access to various interactions; change of personal priorities and behavior, feeling of complete “browsing”, “web surfing”, “filter bubble”.

La interpretación patrimonial intercultural
Authors: Gándara Vázquez Manuel
Published: December 2023

Se discute actualmente la necesidad de que el concepto de patrimonio incorpore aquellas manifestaciones culturales propuestas no sólo por autoridades nacionales o internacionales, sino las reconocidas por las propias comunicades locales. Surge entonces una pregunta: si la interpretación patrimonial es una forma de traducir el lenguaje de los especialistas al lenguaje del gran público, ¿qué sucede cuando los valores los reconocen y entienden de antemano las comunidades locales? ¿Es en ese caso superflua o redundante la interpretación patrimonial? En este texto sostengo que la interpretación patrimonial sigue siendo indispensable, si pretenden compartir su patrimonio con otros públicos, particularmente cuando el bien en cuestión es uno que recibirá públicos internacionales.
Borges, Lost in Translation

Published: December 2023

Jorge Luis Borges publicó “Emma Zunz” en 1948. Tomando como referencia Días de odio, la primera adaptación que Leopoldo Torre Ni- lsson (Argentina) realizó en 1954, este ensayo se propone indagar cómo y por qué su autor escribió el relato de tal manera que, 75 años más tarde, siga provocando discusiones e in- terpretaciones literarias, pero también fílmicas. Una de las conclusiones más importante es que debido a que su autor estaba imbuido por ideas e influenciado por la manera de hacer cine, lo que sale de él son posibles lecturas, mas no certezas. Por eso perdernos en la traducción entre el texto escrito y nuestras propias sensi- bilidades como lectores solo puede tener una salida: seguir leyendo.

Published: December 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho é identificar e analisar as estratégias de diferenciação dos engenhos da cidade de Areia, região do brejo paraibano, que compõem parte da rota turística Caminhos do Frio, especificamente no que diz respeito à Rota dos Engenhos. Quando os locais turísticos estabelecem conexões entre si, incorporando carcaterísticas e rotas específicas, isso resulta em uma compreensão mais profunda dos produtos e serviços turísticos, gerando insights valiosos para a experiência dos visitantes. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com gestores e/ou proprietários de quatro engenhos da região, a saber, engenho Vaca Brava, engenho Cachoeira, engenho Triunfo e engenho Ipueira. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que os quatro engenhos atrelam a produção de cachaça com a recepção de visitantes, ainda que nem todos tenham o turismo como grande enfoque. Dois deles cobram entradas e disponibilizam outros pontos de interesse para além do processo de produção da cachaça. Todos os engenhos apostam em estratégias de diferenciação, ainda que tais estratégias também sejam diferentes entre si. No que diz respeito às estratégias de marketing, todos os engenhos pesquisados utilizam as redes sociais como canal de marketing, dois engenhos têm também a prática de parcerias com atores locais, enquanto apenas um dos engenhos dispõe de um departamento de marketing. Pode-se observar, finalmente, que ainda que os engenhos pesquisados sejam diferentes entre si, tanto no que diz respeito ao tamanho da propriedade e volume de produção, como na relação para com o turismo e nas estratégias de diferenciação e de marketing, seus gestores têm como interesse comum o desenvolvimento da cidade de Areia e da região como produtora de cachaça, trabalhando em clima de cooperação.

As taxas de mortalidade, em Goiás e em Goiânia, no período analisado não tiveram reduções, com tendência de aumento significativo (R2 >0,65), sendo a taxa do estado superior à de Goiânia, consoante a literatura com menores índices em capitais. No que se refere ao número de internações notou-se aumento significativo de internações, aumento que é visualizado também a nível nacional e internacional. O valor médio gasto por paciente subiu, podendo explicar pela ausência de correção monetária, mas confirma a tendência temporal de aumento de gastos a nível mundial. Os procedimentos tiveram aumento significativo em suas realizações (R2=0,79), acompanhado em aumento em números absolutos no número de óbitos, com estabilidade da taxa de mortalidade. As taxas de mortalidade por SCA em Goiás e em Goiânia, mesmo com a implantação do Serviço de Hemodinâmica do HUGOL em Goiânia-GO, continuaram com uma tendência de aumento, sugerindo que a maior realização de procedimentos invasivos ainda não foi suficiente para mudar a epidemiologia destas doenças no Estado.

Prognostic Factors for the Occurrence of Recurrent Major Adverse Cardiac Events after Isolated Coronary Arterial Bypass Graft

Published: December 2023

Background: Coronary heart disease (CHD), commonly known as coronary artery disease (CAD), is a heart disorder that occurs when the arteries supplying blood to the heart walls experience hardening and narrowing, leading to a reduced supply of oxygen and nutrients to the myocardial tissue due to limited coronary blood flow. The treatment of CHD requires revascularization or reperfusion procedures on the coronary blood vessels responsible for supplying the heart muscle. One recommended therapy is coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Patients post-CABG are at risk of experiencing major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).

Methods: This design is a cross-sectional study involving all patients who underwent CABG at Siloam Hospitals in Lippo Village and Kebon Jeruk from January to June 2023. Data analysis using a regression approach aims to evaluate the relationship between various prognostic factors and MACE occurrences, thereby identifying a cross-sectional association between these variables and MACE events.

Results: Findings from this cross-sectional study indicate a correlation between overweight and the occurrence of recurrent MACE in patients with a history of CABG (p-value = 0.037). These results suggest that individuals with obesity undergoing CABG have a higher risk of experiencing recurrent MACE in CHD.

Conclusion: The prognostic factor for recurrent CHD-related major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) is body mass index (BMI). Monitoring body mass index (BMI) in CHD patients who have undergone CABG is essential to reduce the risk of recurring MACE in the future.

In this article, coastal sea sediments from three different selected sites of Reggio Calabria and Vibo Valentia districts, Calabria region, Southern Italy, were picked up to quantify natural and anthropogenic radioactivity content and metal concentrations. The aim was to assess any possible radiological health hazard for human beings due to external exposure to gamma rays, as well as the level of pollution due to anthropic radionuclides and metals in the investigated area. To this purpose, High Purity Germanium (HPGe) gamma spectrometry was employed to quantify specific activities of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and 137Cs radioisotopes. The absorbed gamma dose rate in air (D), the annual effective dose equivalent (AEDE) outdoors, the external hazard index (Hex) and the excess lifetime cancer risk (ELCR) were also estimated to assess any possible radiological health risk for the population, mainly due to the use of coastal sea sediments for the beach nourishment. Moreover, Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) measurements were carried out for the quantitative elemental analysis of the samples, to assess any possible chemical pollution by metals, that could be released into the environment by both natural and anthropogenic sources, through a comparison with the limits set by the Italian Legislation. Finally, the results reported in this paper can be used as a baseline for future investigations concerning a more complete mapping of the radioactivity levels in coastal sea sediments.

Antimicrobial resistance is an issue of enormous proportions that poses a significant threat to global public health. This study focuses on lanthipeptides, ribosomally encoded peptides which display significant structural diversity and hold promising potential as antibiotics. Genome mining was employed to locate biosynthetic gene clusters (BGC) for class II lanthipeptides. A phylogenetic study analyzing homologous sequences of functional LanM sequences revealed a unique evolutionary clade of 39 LanMs associated with 28 Clostridial bacterial genomes. In silico exploration identified nine complete BGCs, including one from Clostridium cellulovorans 743B, that harbors two new lanthipeptides: Clostrisin and Cellulosin. The lanthipeptide BGCs were heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. Molecular weights associated with the expected post-translational modifications of the purified lanthipeptides were confirmed by MALDI-TOF. Both peptides demonstrated antimicrobial activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria, such as a clinical strain of Staphylococcus epidermidis MIQ43 and a reference strain of resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14. This study showcases the immense potential of genome mining in identifying new class II lanthipeptides.
