Examining the Tale of Keloğlan and Giant Mother Using Psychoanalytic Method: Transition from the Preoedipal Stage to the Oedipal Stage
Authors: Memetoğlu Mehmet Erdem
Published: July 2024

Psychoanalytic literary theory is one of the frequently used analytical approaches. The theory tries to understand the unconscious motivations and desires of characters in literary works, as well as subjects in real life. This theory, founded by Sigmund Freud and developed by his followers, suggests that the words, behaviors and actions in a literary text can be interpreted through a psychoanalytic lens in order to reveal the repressed desires and anxieties of the characters and the author alike.
In the psychoanalytic approach, the oral stage, one of the psychosexual stages, is the period when strong bonds between the mother and the child are at the forefront, and competition with the father has not yet emerged. This period can also be called the pre-oedipal period. At this stage, as sexual differences begin to be perceived, the child turns towards the opposite-sex parent. This phase, which includes the phallic period, is referred to as the oedipal period. During this period, the father, whom the child perceives as positive or negative, is also included in the child's life. Fairy tales have been passed down through generations and have survived until today, both orally and in writing. The effects of situations such as fear and violence that can be found in fairy tale on children and how the child perceives and assimilates this content have attracted the attention of psychoanalytic literary theorists. It is assumed that the language of fairy tale can be effective in solving some unconscious issues of the child in the pre- and post-oedipal periods.
In this text; In terms of psychoanalytic theory, the tale of Keloğlan and the Giant's Mother, which is thought to include the issues of the child's pre-oedipal period, has been tried to be interpreted in the light of 'psychoanalytic literary theory'.

Bureaucratic Mismanagement: Understanding Refugees and Asylum Seekers Scapegoating in the Context of Global Policy Shifts and South Africa’s Evolving Approach
Authors: Skota Siyamthanda
Published: July 2024

Rather than addressing the bureaucratic mismanagement causing system overload, there is a prevalent tendency to scapegoat asylum seekers and refugees. This scapegoating motivates the introduction of new legal and policy changes. Consequently, governments, including South Africa, respond by introducing measures that scapegoat migrants instead of strengthening their bureaucratic asylum seeker systems. This chapter, based on an examination of recent policy and legal documents, contends that South Africa’s recent shifts in policy regarding asylum seekers and refugees are indicative of a global trend of restricting the rights of this vulnerable population group. These shifts encompass not only the reduced benefits for applicants but also result from overwhelmed asylum seeker systems. The broader issue highlighted in this chapter is the global perception of migration as a crisis, leading governments worldwide to portray asylum seekers and refugee movements as a crisis. This chapter underscores the need to address this problem, emphasising its impact on asylum seekers, refugees, and international refugee governance systems.

Authors: Rodrigues Bonamichi do Couto Samuel , Nogueira Silenciato Lara , dos Santos Dutra Okada Mariana , Reis e Silva Otávia , Esquerdo Ferreira Joaquim , Roberto Bourg de Mello Marco
Published: July 2024

Progesterone (P4) is a key hormone in the reproductive physiology of cattle, playing a crucial role in regulating the estrous cycle and establishing and maintaining the pregnancy. In the context of reproductive efficiency, the use of P4 has been a strategy increasingly used on rural properties to anticipate puberty, increase pregnancy rates and reduce gestational loss. A common application is the administration of P4, often in the form of intravaginal devices or, more recently, with long-acting injectable progesterone. These methods help synchronize ovulation, allowing more precise management of reproductive programs, facilitating the use of artificial insemination, and contributing to genetic improvement. The synchronization of ovulation in beef and dairy cattle allows insemination at a pre-determined time without the need for estrus detection. These treatments increase the number of inseminated animals and, consequently, the number of pregnant animals. Overall, the strategic use of P4 in livestock management serves as a valuable tool for increasing reproductive efficiency, facilitating better control of reproductive cycles, and contributing to increased pregnancy rates and better overall reproductive performance in cattle herds.

Authors: A. Sharaf Mohammed , Kloczkowski Andrzej
Published: July 2024

The scarcity of clean water is the root cause of the global sustainability problem. It impacts billions of people and poses serious threats to the survival of all life forms. Membrane desalination produces fresh water from saline ones. The energy efficiency and water production are impacted by the membrane’s low water permeability. Sophisticated wastewater treatment technologies remove hazardous wastes and pollutants from water. Removing pollutants improves the chances for having access to clean and sustainable water. Polymer membrane technologies are paramount in conquering obstacles. In polymer membrane technology, polymer matrix-based nanocomposite membranes are among the most widely used due to their convenience. Environmentally friendly, economical, energy-efficient, operationally flexible, and practical are the main characteristics of these membranes and their constituent parts. To treat wastewater and remediate the environment, this review focuses on polymer and nanocomposite membranes. Additionally, stability, antibacterial qualities, and adsorption processes—all benefits of nanocomposite membranes have been explored. The objective of this review was to provide an overview of the use of polymer matrix-based nanocomposite membrane technology for the remediation of hazardous contaminants from water and wastewater/effluent, as well as to identify its limitations and future potential. Additionally, desalination is one industrial application for nanocomposite membranes.

Published: July 2024

Gly m 3 and Gly m 4 are major soybean food allergens, causing birch pollen cross-allergic reactions, particularly with Bet v 1 and Bet v 2. These allergens can mediate anaphylactic reactions; however, the causative factors are still unknown. The goals of this comparative study are to characterize (A) the structural functionality of Gly m allergens of Glycine max and Bet v allergens of Betula pendula form birch, with a focus on their immunological properties, and (B) the molecular mechanisms of cross-allergenicity involved in pollen-food syndrome. This was achieved by extensive analysis using different molecular computer-aided approaches covering (1) physicochemical properties and functional-regulatory motifs, (2) sequence analysis, 2D and 3D structural homology modeling comparative study, (3) conservational and evolutionary analysis, (4) identification of B-cell epitopes based on sequence and structure-docking, while T-cell epitopes were identified by inhibitory concentration and binding score methods. Thus, we found that particular epitopes, in addition to the conserved ones, could be responsible for eliciting cross-reactivity between Bet v 1 and Bet v 2, and their respective homolog allergens proteins found in soybean. Moreover, variable epitopes were present in the Gly m 4 and Gly m 3 structures, which may be also responsible for this causative cross-allergenicity between soybean seed and birch pollen proteins.

Published: July 2024

Background: The control room is a critical work environment where optimal performance is essential to minimize errors. Lighting is one of the key environmental factors influencing the performance of control room operators. Inadequate sleep quality and job stress also significantly impact job performance. Poor sleep quality, eye fatigue, inappropriate lighting, and occupational stress can lead to errors and decreased accuracy in work. Objectives: The present study aims to determine the correlation between lighting intensity, eye fatigue, occupational stress, and sleep quality among control room operators at the Abadan Refinery. The study was conducted in 2022. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 190 control room operators at the Abadan Refinery in 2022. A lux meter device was used to evaluate the intensity of lighting. Standard Pittsburgh sleep quality, eye fatigue, and Occupational Stress questionnaires were also administered. The results were analyzed using SPSS software. Results: The average light intensity of the work surface was 347.95 ± 147.34 lux. The mean and standard deviation of job stress score and sleep quality were 155.42 ± 9.18 and 9.38 ± 1.62, respectively. The average eye fatigue score was 5.09 ± 0.821 in people without glasses and 4.47 ± 0.828 in people with glasses. A significant correlation was found between brightness intensity and visual fatigue (ρ = 0.201, P = 0.029). The correlation between eye fatigue and sleep quality score was also significant (ρ = 0.225, P = 0.002). However, no significant correlation was observed between lighting intensity and sleep quality (ρ = - 0.005, P = 0.946). The correlation between the overall score of occupational stress and sleep quality was statistically significant (r = - 0.148, P = 0.042). Conclusions: The results showed a significant correlation between lighting intensity and the factors of sleep quality and eye fatigue. Additionally, there was a significant correlation between eye fatigue and sleep quality, as well as between occupational stress and sleep quality. Therefore, it is suggested that planning to minimize job stress, and improve lighting and sleep quality for gas refinery control room personnel should be designed and implemented by the authorities.

Published: July 2024

Manufacturing of components that are subjected to high stress levels during operation, such as aircraft engine

turbine blades and battery calender rollers, is resource intensive and costly. These components are often designed

not as a mono-material, but as a layered system. If operational stresses initiate crack-like defects or changes in the

microstructure in the coating and/or base material, this can lead to premature component failure. To prevent this,

the component’s condition is assessed during maintenance by inspections. Based on the data obtained, a decision

is made whether the component can remain in operation, must be replaced or needs to be repaired. This decision

is based on safety, economic and environmental considerations. In order to repair or regenerate such capital goods

in a targeted and resource-efficient manner, a differentiated assessment of surface defects and material changes in

the coating as well as in the base material is required. This can be achieved by an intelligent combination of

different non-destructive testing techniques. In this paper, the differentiated assessment of the condition of the

individual layers and the base material is presented using the example of a high-pressure turbine blade. The test

results of the non-destructive testing techniques used are combined in a digital image of the component from which

suitable repair measures can be derived. The transfer of the findings from the turbine blade to the layered system

of a calender roller is also discussed.

Comparative Considerations
Authors: Carelli Paul ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: July 2024

Comparative philosophy is an important and growing field. Increasingly, philosophy instructors are looking to offer philosophy courses that span more than just one regional culture. Developing a syllabus for a course in comparative philosophy for the first time can be a daunting challenge. Among the many questions one has to ask is how much class time should be spent characterizing the cultural differences between the two philosophical traditions before examining the philosophical traditions themselves and what sort of materials should be covered from each tradition. Perhaps surprisingly, my answer to the first question is little to none. Characterizing cultures brings with it a danger of essentializing that should be avoided in the classroom. As to the sorts of materials to be covered, it is best to look at whole works from individual philosophers, rather than try to compare whole traditions.

Published: July 2024

This study explores the crafting of news quality standards on cross-media platforms to enhance journalistic practices among multimedia journalists (MJs) in broadcast media organisations in Malaysia. Guided by the News Value Theory, semi-structured interviews with 15 MJs were conducted and interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to identify the superordinate and subordinate themes. Findings reveal three superordinate themes, namely commodities, journalism principles and newsworthiness to shareworthiness. In crafting the standards of quality in news on cross-media platforms, media organisations should develop and enforce a comprehensive code of ethics that prioritises accuracy, objectivity, and transparency in reporting. Additionally, implementing rigorous fact-checking processes and mechanisms for discerning quality news from misinformation promotes responsible and accountable reporting among MJs. In conclusion, the challenges posed by the digital transformation in the media landscape underline the need for a national response from the media industry to navigate future practices while maintaining journalistic integrity standards.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) influencers as models in brand campaigns in recent years, particularly in beauty brands, has sparked scepticism and distrust among the public. This study aims to explore the impact of AI influencer usage on message reception within beauty brand campaigns on Instagram according to the audience reception theory. Using a quantitative approach with random sampling techniques, the research covers the entire active Instagram user population in Indonesia, with 100 respondents. The analysis reveals a decline in message reception when AI influencers are employed in beauty brand campaigns on Instagram. Factors contributing to this decline include a lack of trust, limited social presence, and absence of humanistic elements in content. Additionally, aspects like visual realism and hyperreality content create a disparity between the portrayed image and reality. These findings indicate a tendency for declining message reception over time, warranting further investigation into public responses and AI influencer roles. To counter this decline, continuous monitoring of evolving trends and dynamics in message reception through AI influencers is recommended. Further, collaborative efforts between AI influencers and humans are suggested to mitigate the downward trend. This comprehensive understanding is vital for brands navigating the evolving landscape of influencer marketing and maintaining a positive reception among their target audience.

Published: July 2024

The problem of stress in perforated thin-walled cylinders due to mechanical and thermal load was analyzed for cases where the load of the system varies both along the cylinder circumference and axially. Starting from the solution and considerations for a smooth thin-walled cylinder, the concept was expanded and the distribution of deformations caused by thermal loads on the cylinder and the resulting stresses in the structure of the thin-walled perforated cylinder was observed for a specific form of perforation. The cylindrical perforated burner is one of the main elements of premixed condensing boiler for home heating systems. The quality of combustion, and thus the heat load on the outer sheath of the burner, largely depends on the layout, shape and dimensions of the perforation. This paper presents the mechanical modeling of thermomechanical processes of a cylindrical gas burner with premixing for a triangular layout or the so-called checkerboard shape of perforation.

Contemporary irregular migrations in the Republic of Serbia: Ethical normative aspects
Authors: Petrović Zoran
Published: July 2024

This paper examines global and regional trends in contemporary irregular migration, which reflect complex economic, political, social, and security factors, which, as such, reflect on the Republic of Serbia. Analyzing the ethical norms of migration, the author starts from the theoretical framework of Kant's principle of general hospitality, which dictates openness to foreigners, emphasizing that in practice this principle has limitations due to real security and economic reasons. Through the ethical aspects of irregular migration, the author analyzes two categories of mandatory admission - family reunification and asylum seekers. It is shown that states have a moral obligation to enable family reunification, as well as to ensure a fair process for considering asylum applications. When it comes to discretionary admission, the author identifies permitted exclusion criteria (threat to national security, criminal history) and selection criteria (family ties, economic potential, cultural affiliation). Serbia has established a national legislative framework and is implementing best practices, continuing the trend of improving migration management policy. The paper presents current statistical indicators analyzing the current situation on the Western Balkan migration route. Migration ethics requires a complex balancing act between the sovereign rights of states, moral principles, and practical limitations, which is also reflected in the actual policies of liberal-democratic states. Through the analysis of these aspects, the paper provides insights into the ethical and normative aspects of contemporary irregular migration in the Republic of Serbia and lays the groundwork for further research and understanding of this phenomenon.

Published: July 2024

Multi ply fabric cutting by laser is very challenging because of low thermal conductivity of textile materials. A laser beam can through-cut only limited number of fabric plies placed one above another. In experiment the conditional spread of ten 100% cotton fabric plies was cut by a laser beam to see how cutting speed influences cutting quality. It was established that using a 100 W laser beam all 10 plies could be cut only by lower speeds 30-45mm/s. In the laser cutting process the cut edges of material got coloured. The smaller was processing speed, the wider coloured edges were obtained. After sample washing edge colouring disappeared. Additional laundry process will not be needed processing garments which are dyed as a ready goods or manufacturing denim clothing when vintage look is obtained during washing process.

Published: July 2024

Physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, fast-paced lifestyle, as well as genetic predispositions lead to the appearance of diabetes mellitus, and with it many other complications, of which diabetic foot syndrome is very common. In order to avoid complications with the diabetic foot, one of the forms of prevention is wearing specially designed footwear that protects and reduces the pressure on the foot and thus the risk of ulcers. Insoles also play a big role in preventing complications. The paper will present a conceptual solution of a model of footwear for patients with diabetes mellitus and a prototype of an insole made of knitwear, which was previously printed with medical clay, honey and extracts of the plants Rosmarinus officinalis and Zingiber officinale. Samples of knitwear that were printed with a paste containing Rosmarinus officinalis extract showed exceptional antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Replaceable insoles for footwear are intended for the prevention of complications from Diabetes mellitus.

Authors: Gupta Aradhna , Sharma Bechan
Published: July 2024

Na+-K+-ATPase is a membrane-bound enzyme responsible for the transport of ions through the membrane and the immediate release of energy. This enzyme is known to be an early target for oxygen radical-induced damage to intact cells. Exposure of C. punctatus to subacute concentrations of lindane for 96 h caused a significant reduction in the activities of Na+-K+-ATPase in all the tissues of the fish tested, with the brain being maximally affected and the heart being the least affected organ at the highest concentration of lindane (0.1 mg/L). The effect of pesticides was concentration-dependent. The percent decrease in the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in brain, gills, heart, kidney, liver, and muscle was found to be 36.7, 23.4, 19.2, 29, 22.9, and 29.7, respectively. The order of level of enzyme activity recorded was as follows: liver > gills > kidney > brain > muscle > heart in the control.
