Natural deep eutectic solvent extraction of xanthorrhizol and curcuminoids from Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb and simultaneous determination by high-performance liquid chromatography
Authors: Simamora Adelina , Timotius Kris H. , Setiawan Heri , Putra Masteria Y. , Mun’im Abdul
Published: October 2023

Context: Curcuma xanthorrhiza, a native to Indonesia, has been recognized as a potential medicinal plant. Xanthorrhizol (XTZ), curcumin (Cur), bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC), and demethoxycurcumin (DMC) are the main major metabolites with different bioactivities. Thus, the selective extraction of these markers is required. Aims: To characterize and use natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) for the extraction of XTZ and curcuminoids (CURS) from C. xanthorrhiza. Methods: Four NADES, comprising of glucose:lactic acid (Glu:LA, 1:3), choline chloride: malic acid (ChCl:MA, 1:1), choline chloride: glycerol (ChCl:Gly, 1:1), and choline chloride: sucrose (ChCl:Suc, 3:1) were synthesized and subjected to FTIR. The physicochemical properties of NADES were characterized, including polarity, viscosity, and density. Their antioxidant profiles were evaluated. The toxicity of NADES was assessed towards Escherichia coli by real-time growth monitoring. Tested NADES were employed to extract marker compounds from the rhizome of C. xanthorrhiza. A validated high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was applied to simultaneously quantify XTZ and CURS in NADES extracts. Results: FTIR spectra confirmed the formation of hydrogen bonds between components. Using the DPPH and FRAP methods, all NADES and NADES extracts displayed antioxidative activity, suggesting the contribution of NADES to the activity. Of the tested NADES, Glu:LA (1:3) obtained the highest content of XTZ over Cur, BDMC, and DMC, comparable to that of ethanol maceration. All tested NADES were harmless to E. coli, except for ChCl:MA (1:1). However, NADES extracts of Glu:LA (1:3) and ChCl:MA (1:1) suppressed the growth of the bacterium. Scanning electron micrographs demonstrated the destruction of the surface structure of the rhizome powder by NADES-ultrasonication. Conclusions: The study recommended the use of Glu:LA (1:3) to selectively extract XTZ to promote environmentally friendly and sustainable extraction.

Published: October 2023

In the process of treating raw water into clean water, the pathogenic bacteria must be eliminated. The process of eliminating pathogenic bacteria which then cause an unpleasant odor can be carried out by disinfection. The thing that needs to be considered in the context of disinfection is how to prevent the transfer of germs to the human body through clean water by breaking the chain between the two by means of disinfection. This research begins with a laboratory test of the total coliform content in water treated by Biofilter without disinfection. The laboratory test results showed that the content of Fecal Coli was 1880/100 ml and the bacteria in the Coli group were 2060/100 ml. This parameter must be reduced to the limit according to the Environmental Quality Standard (BML) using a disinfection treatment. From the observations made on the coagulation process from raw water it can be informed that in the range of observed variables, with an increase in the dose of Calcium Hypochlorite (Ca (OCl) 2) from 1 mg / lt to 3 mg / l in the disinfection process, the number of E. coli bacteria which is being lowered more and more. At a dose of Calcium Hypochlorite Ca (OCl) 2 2.5 mg in 1 liter of raw water for the Kebon Agung Canal Drainage Channel with a stirring time of 30 minutes was able to reduce the number of E. Coli bacteria by 99, 40%.

Study of correlation between the gender gap index, economic efficiency, and governance in European countries
Authors: Podolchak Nazar , Martyniuk Volodymyr , Tsygylyk Natalia
Published: October 2023

As gender equality is a priority for 17 sustainable development goals, it is appropriate to establish a correlation between the Gender Gap Index (GGI), economic efficiency and governance. Three hypotheses have been investigated. It is established that there is no general direct relationship between the level of GGI and GDP per capita growth (annual) for all countries, regardless of their level of development. In the UK, small fluctuations in GDP per capita growth (annual) do not affect GGI levels; however, the Covid-19 pandemic does have its impact. In Germany, any fluctuations in GDP per capita growth (annual) do not affect the level of GGI, yet it is affected by changes in population, in particular by increasing migration. In Ukraine, significant fluctuations in GDP per capita growth (annual) do not affect the level of GGI, although this index is reduced by the effects of the pandemic a year after its onset. In addition, the relationship between the population, civil servants, their distribution by sex, average wages and GDP per capita growth (annual) and, consequently, the welfare of the population of these countries was established. The obvious efficiency of the UK's and Germany's strategic governance systems has different implications for achieving gender equality and well-being. It is proposed to use the Windmill economic model to achieve gender equality among civil servants in the developing country.
Fuelling Life and Managing Surplus: Revisiting Type 2 Diabetes
Authors: Gudat Uwe
Published: October 2023

Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is becoming an increasing global health challenge. Despite intensive efforts to understand its pathophysiology we seem still to be scratching on the surface. Starting from first principles this essay attempts to explore new ways to approach T2D. The premise is that a prolonged nutrient surplus lies at the heart of T2D. Given that homeostasis relies on steady states that require a balance between in- and efflux to maintain the milieu interieur, imbalances between energy uptake and utilisation can only be reconciled by storing unused energy. This explains the link between obesity and T2D. But putting on unlimited reserves is impractical. This is the dilemma the body faces. The natural conclusion is to reduce energy intake or increase expenditure to regain balance. The essay further explores rates of change of fluxes as the medium through which homeostatic control occurs. Steady states are maintained by resisting perturbations and in that way create corridors of control. In closing the essay advocates a pluralistic integrated approach to studying the multi-faceted phenomena that underlie T2D.
Self-harming behavior in adolescents: Current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches
Authors: Yazici Merve , Hocaoglu Cicek
Published: October 2023

Self-harming behavior (SHB) refers to a culturally disapproved situation in which a person intentionally damages his/her own body. SHB is an important public health problem in the world, especially during adolescence, and is widely encountered in clinical practice. It can be seen together with psychopathologies such as depression and borderline personality disorders, but it can also occur without concomitant psychopathology. In addition to the fact that SHB has a high risk of recurrence and can result in negative mental health problems in the long term, it is also one of the most important risk factors for suicidal behavior. Studies on SHB have increased in recent years. However, the epidemiology and etiology of SHB have not been fully elucidated. In addition, there is no psychotherapeutic intervention method or pharmacological agent whose effectiveness for SHB has been proven yet. In this article, it is aimed to review the studies related to the definition, epidemiology, risk factors, and treatment of self-harming behavior.
Learning out Loud: A Framework for Learning in an Era of Information Abundance
Authors: Caldwell Karen
Published: October 2023

Learning out loud (LOL) is an approach to learning and teaching in an era of information abundance and the changing state - and role - of formal education (K-12 and higher education, training and development programs). LOL frames a learning experience that extends beyond the traditional, centuries-old emphasis on encoding, or taking in information in formal settings, by expanding the storage, or sense-making process, stretching and sustaining retrieval, or application of content, and adding “bookends” of emphasis on motivation in the early stages and sustainability and flexible transfer toward the latter stages. In this way, a learning experience framed by LOL extends beyond the formal setting through authentic, emotional, and applied learning journeys. Based on theory and extensive empirical research from cognitive science and the science of learning, LOL addresses two pressing challenges for learners, the role and relevance of formal learning and the mismatch between how we feel we learn best and how we actually learn best. Learning out loud maps a learning journey to harness information abundance, seize the opportunities of the changing state and role of formal education, and scaffold individualized and collaborative sense-making.

Published: October 2023

Smallholder poultry actors play key roles in increasing food security and contribute significantly to the economy of both developed and developing countries. Despite their roles, they are a vulnerable group and mostly neglected by developmental programmes. As well, they account for most of the world’s poor and hungry. Nevertheless, they continually strive to keep their activities directly as livelihood and indirectly as contributors to the society. They are challenged with; high cost of investment compare to slim margin on returns per unit, poor infrastructure; bad road network and public power supply, poor linkages to information, inputs, market, funding facilities and logistics for both input and output delivery, etc. Diversification into value addition, direct marketing of products using trust factors, investment in alternative power generation through cooperative society and community efforts in rural road development are observable resilience strategies used by these actors.

Published: October 2023

Fowls and their eggs provide animal protein for human populations. Parasites are very common in fowls and heavy infection can affect the growth, and egg production, and cause death. Fowls during feeding pick the parasitic infective stage by ingesting contaminated food, and water. There are two groups of parasites infecting fowls: external (ectoparasites) and internal parasites (endoparasites). The clinical findings of the examined affected chickens showed that symptoms vary from healthy to subclinical symptoms. The main clinical signs were dullness, emaciation and weakness, hemorrhagic enteritis, congestion of ceca, mucoid and watery diarrhea Besides. The research refers found 2 species of lice namely Mencanths stramineus and Goniocotes gallinae. One species of soft tick, from genus Aragas persicus, was recorded. While internal parasites included different types of Eimeria oocysts. The current study did not reveal any blood parasites or Cryptosporidium oocysts in all of the examined fowls. Different types of intestinal nematodes which were recovered with Subulura species followed by large roundworms, Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum, Capillaria. Regarding tapeworms, six species were recorded and identified, which were Raillietina tetragona, R. echinobothrida, R. cesticillus, Fimbriaria fasciolari, Davainea proglottina, and Amoebotaenia sphenoides.
A Study on the Relationship between Health and Physical Fitness and School Life of Children
Authors: Kim Mijin
Published: October 2023

In this study, in order to clarify the relationship between health and physical strength, athletic capability, school life, and lifestyles, we collated the results of physical fitness tests with questionnaire surveys of 102 elementary school fifth-grade males and females. In the school life aspect, children who scored high on the physical fitness test, like Physical Education, enjoy learning, play well with friends while in the lifestyle aspect, they clean up their surroundings and rooms, study even without being told and there is a tendency for them to make their own plan. In addition, it was confirmed that children with high physical fitness test scores were in good condition, such as being healthy every day and hardly getting sick. On the other hand, in relation to the physical fitness test scores and the body shape by BMI, there were many high scorers among the children whose body figure was standard. These results suggest that physical fitness and athletic capability are related to children’s school life and health, and that high physical fitness has a positive impact on children’s school life and health.
Accessible Resistance Movement Experiences for Elementary Students and Educators
Authors: Morag Murray Alison , Murray Pamela , Howells Kristy
Published: October 2023

What is meant by accessible resistance movement and why is the elementary education phase proposed as such a superb period in a child’s life to gain competence and knowledge using resistance activity? This chapter presents a case and a means to do just that. The resistance program is called ‘I Can Resist’. It is shared with accompanying pedagogical methods to scaffold learning and progress motor competence and biomotor fitness (agility that improves health through skill-related fitness). Interleaved through the progressions are ways to increase the self-management in how to participate in and create meaningful ways to improve targeted benefits. ‘I Can Resist’ is designed for novices to more experienced, participants and tutors alike. It was developed primarily for physical education supporting national curricular policy and implementation as regards knowledge and fitness outcomes. It was extended beyond the curriculum expectation in order to encourage greater use of the available affordances beyond the curriculum for lifelong health and well-being. Current findings are examined and insights offered. The ‘I Can Resist’ program is underpinned through research and theoretical application. It is showcased as interwoven with the means to develop agentic thinking and action. This ecological approach to and through resistance movement is contextually adaptable.
Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Early Brain Injury: A New Pathophysiological Perspective
Authors: Nascimento de Morais Guilherme , Rojas Salomón
Published: October 2023

Non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage is a devastating neurological emergency, the main cause of which is aneurysmal rupture. The treatment of the aneurysm, whether microsurgical or endovascular, is essential for the recovery of these patients, however, a series of pathophysiological events in the days following the bleeding cause great damage to the brain tissue. For many years efforts have been focused on the prevention and treatment of cerebral vasospasm, which is believed to be the cause of late cerebral ischemia. However, new pathophysiological perspectives point to a series of events that begin immediately after bleeding, known as early brain injury, mainly involving brain microvascular dysfunction, cortical spreading depolarizations and neuroinflammation, which we discuss below.

Authors: Naz Anis Farheen , Umat Cila
Published: October 2023

The advancement in cochlear implant (CI) technologies and how CIs help their users have far exceeded expectations. Speech perception remains the focus of many studies related to cochlear implant clinical research to ensure the technology maximizes the benefits to be obtained by CI users. This chapter will discuss the perception of non-native sounds among congenitally deaf pediatric CI users, specifically emphasizing Arabic consonants. This language is used and learned by billions of non-native Arabs worldwide. Non-native auditory signals are perceived differently by children with CI due to speech processor signal processing and native language learning effects. This study measured the perceptual learning of uncategorized-dispersed-assimilated Arabic consonants for a group of non-native children with CI using a newly developed, FizBil© bottom-up, customized software training module. The framework and hypothetical pathway will be discussed.

The Evolution of Sustainable Rice Production along the Lower Mississippi River (USA) with the Increasing Spector of Climate Change
Authors: Aide Michael
Published: October 2023

It is incumbent to assess the status of U.S. rice production and its agronomic practices and then predict if the status is sustainable with climate change. Climate change expectations include a strong likelihood of higher temperatures and some uncertainty in precipitation. Technological solutions appear to be revolving around (i) rice breeding to improve cultivar heat tolerance, especially for high nighttime temperatures, and (ii) altering irrigation regimes to conserve groundwater. Of concern are the potential of protracted droughts in the Sacramento Valley of California, salinization along the gulf coast and aquifer depletion across portions of the mid-South. The objectives of this manuscript include: (i) evaluate existing US Mid-South rice irrigation strategies, (ii) assess the yield potential and seed quality of emerging water-conserving irrigation regimes, (iii) assess the influence of rice irrigation regimes on aquifer overdraft, and (iv) assess the influence of increased temperatures on rice growth and development. Alternate wetting and drying irrigation and furrow irrigation are attractive irrigation regimes to reduce aquifer depletion. Yield trials show mixed results, with yield differences associated with soil type, timing and frequency of irrigations, nitrogen fertilization, and variety selection. Producer acceptance of furrow irrigation is rapidly developing, even in rice producing regions that have not experienced aquifer overdraft.
Advanced Physiotherapy Intervention for Muscular Dystrophy
Authors: Swathi Saina , Chandrasekaran Gayathri Kandhili , Senthil Purushothaman
Published: October 2023

Muscular dystrophies are rare neuromuscular conditions which are genetically and clinically diverse that cause gradual, progressive weakness and breakdown of skeletal muscles over time. Gene mutations, typically in those involved in producing muscle proteins, are the primary cause of muscular dystrophy. Based on these gene mutations and proteins involved a wide variety of muscular dystrophies have been identified. The primary muscles affected, the level of weakness, the rate at which symptoms increase, and the onset of symptoms vary among different muscular dystrophies. Some forms are linked to issues with other organ systems. The kind of muscular dystrophy will be ascertained through a physical examination, medical history, and other diagnostic techniques. Currently, there is no cure for muscular dystrophy. Multidisciplinary management plays a vital role in increasing life expectancy and improving the quality of life. Physical therapy as a part of supportive care management can help muscular dystrophy patients in various ways. It can help in maintaining joint range of motion, flexibility, and overall fitness. It helps in maintaining muscle strength, improving range of motion, and reducing pain. In this chapter, we will present the advanced physiotherapeutic interventions helpful for subjects with muscular dystrophies, based on the evidence available in the literature.

La tesis tiene por objeto de estudio la protección jurídica de los hombres de mar frente a los riesgos derivados de la exposición al ruido. Para poner en evidencia que los niveles de ruido a bordo, en algunos espacios de trabajo, son altos, se cuantifican los niveles de los focos de ruido en el buque, su composición espectral y la forma de evaluarlos de forma aproximada mediante formulas semiempiricas. Posteriormente se analizan los niveles globales detectados en algunos tipos característicos de buques mercantes y las reducciones de intensidad que se alcanzan aplicando las técnicas habituales de insonorización. Tras examinar los efectos generales de la exposición al ruido y los particulares que tiene desde el punto de vista de la salud laboral, se termina incardinando la protección jurídica de los hombres de mar dentro del bloque normativo protector general.
El Sindicato Libre de la Marina Mercante, un intento de unidad sindical: notas para una historia del movimiento obrero en la marina mercante
Authors:   , Zamora i Terrés Joan
Published: October 2023

La primera asociación de marinos de carácter sindical nace en Barcelona en 1878. En los años posteriores se van fundando numerosas asociaciones de náuticos (oficiales de cubierta), y de oficiales de máquinas. Las reivindicaciones generales de los marinos civiles en el primer tercio del siglo XX, motivaron diversos intentos unitarios, plasmados en las tres federaciones de oficiales de la marina mercante que se formaron. Finalizada la guerra civil y fuera de la ley todas las organizaciones sindicales de clase y democráticas, los marinos se encuadraron obligatoriamente en el sindicalismo vertical. En abril de 1975, se fundó el sindicato libre de la marina mercante (SLMM). A su naturaleza de clase y democrática, el SLMM unía un rasgo esencial: era una organización unitaria de todos los trabajadores de un buque. La división sindical del movimiento obrero hizo inviable la continuidad del SLMM. En su V congreso el SLMM aprobó por amplia mayoría su integración en comisiones obreras, poniendo fin al mas fructífero de los intentos sindicales unitarios de la marina mercante.
Desarrollo de un cemento de fosfato de calcio macroporoso: influencia de la macroporosidad y de la microestructura en el comportamiento biológico
Authors:   , Valle Fresno Sergio del
Published: October 2023

Los cementos de fosfato de calcio son biomateriales utilizados para la regeneración ósea. En esta tesis doctoral se estudia la influencia de la microestructura y la macroporosidad en el comportamiento biológico de un cemento de fosfato de calcio.

En la primera parte, se caracterizaron las propiedades físico-químicas y superficiales de dos sustratos de apatita deficiente en calcio con diferente microestructura obtenidos a partir de un cemento de fosfato de calcio (CPC) cuyo principalmente componente es el fosfato tricálcico en fase $\alpha$. % con dos distribuciones de tamaño de partícula distintos.
Se estudió la influencia de la microestructura en el comportamiento celular y la adsorción de proteínas como la albúmina, la fibronectina y la lisozima. El uso de dos agentes desorción (EDTA y SDS) permitió evidenciar la influencia de la morfología y tamaño de los cristales de apatita en la fuerza de adhesión de las proteínas estudiadas. Los cultivos celulares con la línea MG-63 mostraron el efecto de la microestructura y el intercambio iónico sobre la proliferación celular. Se observó asimismo una estimulación en la diferenciación celular en uno de los sustratos que fue atribuido a un efecto de la topografía.

En la segunda parte, se desarrolló un cemento macroporoso inyectable para aplicaciones médicas, utilizando como agente espumante una solución proteica de albumen. Se optimizó la obtención de la macroporosidad a partir de variables como: la distribución del tamaño de partícula, la relación entre la fase sólida y la fase líquida, la cantidad de agente espumante y la adición de un agente de cohesión como el alginato de sodio para posibilitar su inyección directa en el lugar de implantación.

Por último, se demostró mediante estudios \emph{in vivo} en fémur de conejos un mayor potencial de regeneración ósea por parte del cemento macroporoso en comparación con su homólogo microporoso, al obtenerse una mayor cantidad de tejido óseo y una mayor reabsorción en el cemento macroporoso.

Phylogenetic analyses and description of a new species of black widow spider of the genus Latrodectus Walckenaer (Araneae, Theridiidae) from Mexico; one or more species?
Authors: Valdez-Mondragón Alejandro , Cabrera-Espinosa Luis A.
Published: October 2023

A new species of the spider genus Latrodectus Walckenaer, 1805 from Mexico is described based on an integrative taxonomic approach. Latrodectus occidentalis Valdez-Mondragón sp. nov. is described using the molecular markers cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) and internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2), morphology of male and female specimens, and Species Distribution Models (SDM). Four molecular methods for species delimitation were implemented. The new species is characterized by having a unique dorsal coloration pattern on the abdomen. Latrodectus occidentalis sp. nov. is considered a distinct and valid species for four reasons: (1) it can be distinguished by morphological characters (genital and somatic); (2) the average interspecific genetic variation is > 2%; (3) 12 haplotypes were recovered within the species, being separated by the next close haplogroup of L. hesperus Chamberlin & Ivie, 1935 (30 mutations); and (4) congruence was observed among the four molecular methods. The number of recorded species of Latrodectus from Mexico increases to four: Latrodectus mactans (Fabricius, 1775), L. hesperus Chamberlin & Ivie, 1935, L. geometricus C.L. Koch, 1841 (introduced), and L. occidentalis sp. nov. The diversity of the genus Latrodectus from Mexico is surely underestimated, and more sampling is needed from the different biogeographical provinces and ecoregions to fill in these gaps.
Piecewise linear differential systems with an algebraic line of separation
Authors: Gasull Armengol , Torregrosa  Joan , Zhang Xiang
Published: October 2023

We study the number of limit cycles of planar piecewise linear differential systems separated by a branch of an algebraic curve. We show that for each \(n\in\mathbb{N}\) there exist piecewise linear differential systems separated by an algebraic curve of degree \(n\) having [n/2] hyperbolic limit cycles. Moreover, when n=2,3, we study in more detail the problem, considering a perturbation of a center and constructing examples with 4 and 5 limit cycles, respectively. These results follow by proving that the set of functions generating the first order averaged function associated to the problem is an extended complete Chebyshev system in a suitable interval.

Evolution of regulations in the field of fisheries, protection and use of natural aquatic biological resources
Authors: Bulat Dumitru , Saptefrati Nicolae , Bulat Denis , Avornic Gheorghe
Published: October 2023

The fishing regulatory measures that have been applied over the years in the Republic of Moldova in natural ecosystems have not always been effective - either through the faulty organization of the exploitation of fish resources, non-compliance with the fishing regime, failure to assess the state of fish resources, the ineffectiveness of ameliorative measures etc., or through the imperfection of the normative framework. In this paper, for the first time, an analysis of the existing normative acts in the field of protection of aquatic biological resources in the Republic of Moldova is made in historical and content terms. Also, an attempt was made to harmoniously integrate the scientific results from the field of ichthyology into that of environmental law. Following the multi-systemic approach of the existing normative framework in the field of exploitation and protection of aquatic biological resources, scientifically argued recommendations and proposals were submitted to improve the legislation in the field.
Modern approaches to morphofunctional dynamics of spermatogenesis process
Authors: Sheptitskiy Vladimir , Leorda Ana , Raischi Viorica , Grosul-Raileanu Olesea
Published: October 2023

This paper summarises modern approaches to the morphofunctional dynamics of spermatogenesis as a complex dynamic process with well-organised cellular and molecular events, which includes three specific basic functional steps - spermatocytogenesis (mitosis), meiosis and spermiogenesis (differentiation with no cell division), and leads to sperm production. The first stage involves the differentiation of spermatogonia (small diploid germ cells) by mitotic division into primary spermatocytes. The second stage requires meiosis, in which diploid cells - spermatocytes form round haploid spermatids. The final stage of spermatogenesis involves the production of mature, motile spermatozoa from round spermatids in a process called spermiogenesis. At any of these stages, functional disorders can occur, which can lead to disruption of the whole process and infertility. To date, a comprehensive understanding of the cell biology and genetics of spermatogenesis is difficult as it takes place in a complex testicular environment, characterised by a close association of developing spermatozoa with additional cells. Therefore, it is necessary to intensify the study of the mechanisms of the morphofunctional dynamics of spermatogenesis and its regulation in general and at different stages.

Fighting apatosaur art #6: the ones that got away
Authors: Taylor Mike
Published: October 2023

Here’s the last post (at least for now) in the Fighting Apatosaur Art series — and we’re back to Brian Engh, who we started with. Early in the process of putting together artwork to illustrate our apatosaur neck combat hypothesis, Brian tried out a whole bunch of outlandish concepts. Here are two that he showed us, but which were too speculative to push forward with.
Four different reasons to post preprints
Authors: Taylor Mike
Published: October 2023

Preprints are in the air! A few weeks ago, Stephen Curry had a piece about them in the  Guardian  (Peer review, preprints and the speed of science) and pterosaur palaeontologist Liz Martin published Preprints in science on her blog  Musings of Clumsy Palaeontologist  . The latter in particular has spawned a prolific and fascinating comment stream.
What is my mystery baby bird?
Authors: Taylor Mike
Published: October 2023

Here’s my newest specimen: a tiny baby bird, maybe 5 or 6 cm from wingtip to foot. This one came from my next-door neighbours: apparently it had been sitting on their car for several weeks before they thought to lift it off and give it to me. As you can see, the specimen is extraordinarily well preserved — more or less mummified, I suppose by wind-drying. Like a Chinese duck, though less appetising.

Authors: Sarmento Elisângela Campos Damasceno , Moura Geraldo Jorge Barbosa de
Published: October 2023

A Ecocrítica e a Zooliteratura, por serem campos inter e transdisciplinares, apresentam alternativas à solidariedade acadêmica. Nesse sentido, esta investigação tem como objetivo analisar essas vertentes científicas como uma possibilidade pedagógica a um ensino articulado das Ciências, haja vista a necessidade de superação da visão positivista, que compartimenta os saberes. A metodologia desta pesquisa caracteriza-se como um estudo de caso qualitativo, de caráter descritivo-explicativo. A técnica de interpretação dos dados fundamenta-se na Análise do Discurso de Linha Francesa, tendo, como meios de investigação, as obras: O Sertanejo, de José de Alencar; O Quinze, de Rachel de Queiroz, e Vidas Secas, de Graciliano Ramos. Destaca-se que os principais resultados apontam que, mediante a Eco e a Zoocrítica, há indicações de possíveis correlações entre diversas ciências, como Geografia Humanista, Biologia, Psicanálise, Filosofia, História, Sociologia e Antropologia. Portanto, a Ecocrítica e a Zooliteratura revelam-se como potentes estudos inter e transdisciplinares, que suscitam um ensino integrado das ciências.

Assessment of bicycle experimental objective handling quality indicators
Authors: Ronné Jules , Dubuis Laura , Robert Thomas
Published: October 2023

Understanding and mastering handling quality is a critical concern for bicycle designers, as it directly impacts safety, comfort, and performance. However, this aspect has received limited attention to date. Existing literature offers experimental handling quality indicators based on bicycle kinematics, but their validity has yet to be established. This study aims to assess the predictive power of these indicators using experimental data derived from subjective assessments of handling quality. These data, obtained from a protocol involving 20 participants and 2 bicycles, enabled testing 39 experimental indicators. The results indicate that certain vehicle kinematic quantities are indeed correlated with the perception of handling quality but with low predictive power. Indicators based on handlebar movement are the most effective in explaining the sensation of handling quality. These indicators perform particularly well at low speeds, where physical and cognitive workload are associated with the quantity of control actions on the handlebars.
Influence of parallel and series U-loop configurations on the thermal behaviour of energy piles
Authors: Faizal Mohammed , Bouazza Abdelmalek
Published: October 2023

Energy piles are foundation piles that have heat exchanger pipes installed in them for exchanging geothermal energy between buildings and the ground through the use of a ground source heat pump (GSHP). This is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly method to supplement heating and cooling of buildings. Heat transfer occurs between the piles and the ground through a heat transfer fluid circulating in the pipes. The heat exchanger pipes in the piles are commonly made from polyethylene pipes formed into U-loops [e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]. The U-loops are configured into series or parallel configurations to circulate water in the pipes. A number of studies have investigated the thermal and thermo-mechanical behaviour of energy piles with U-loop heat exchangers [e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]. Despite this widespread research, the fluid flow and temperature variations in the individual U-loops are not well understood for parallel and series U-loops in the piles. Given that the fluid flow behaviour varies between the two configurations [8], it can be hypothesised that the thermal behaviour of the energy piles may vary as well.  

This study investigates the influence of series and parallel U-loop configurations on the variations in fluid temperatures and flowrates in the individual U-loops of energy piles, and the effects of these variations on the geothermal energy extracted by the piles. Heating experiments were conducted on a set of four field-scale energy piles installed below a 5-storey building in Brighton group sandy soils. The energy piles have a length of 15 m and diameter of 0.9 m, but different numbers of U-loops (1, 2, 3, and 4 U-loops in Piles 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively). The fluid temperatures and flowrates were monitored in the individual U-loops of the piles that were connected to a plumbing manifold located in the monitoring room (Figure 1). A comparative thermal performance analysis of the two configurations was conducted to derive conclusions on the preferred configuration for improved thermal performance of the piles.

The flowrate variations and change in fluid temperatures in the individual U-loops at Day 15 of group tests are shown in Figure 2. The flowrates were inconsistent between the U-loops in the parallel configuration but remained constant in the series U-loops. Heat exchange occurred in all the U-loops in parallel, whereas only the first few U-loops in the series configuration exchanged heat with the ground. The results suggest that all the energy piles in the group with parallel U-loops were thermally active and could improve the performance of energy pile systems compared to energy piles with U-loops in series.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emission into the atmosphere from human activities and industrial processes continues to pose a major environmental and health threat to public safety worldwide with many governments launching initiatives to reduce the impact of CO2 emission. Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is a process of separating CO2 from industrial facilities and other point sources and injecting it in a deep geological formation such as depleted oil and gas reservoirs for long-term storage [1]. Usually, CO2 is injected into a deep formation at a depth more than 1000 m where in-situ pressure and temperature is above the critical point for CO2 (31.1°
Juridical Analysis of Corruption Crime Asset Confistion As an Effort to Return State Losses Using Non Penal Approach in Indonesia
Authors: Akbar Fauzan , Syaekh Khaerul Ardhian
Published: October 2023

In its development, corruption in Indonesia has increased from year to year, both in terms of the quality or amount of state financial losses and the quality of how it is carried out in a sophisticated and systematic manner, and has even penetrated across national borders. Therefore, handling corruption, especially in order to maximize the recovery of state losses, requires a comprehensive approach, as well as through international cooperation. This research found the fact that the asset confiscation mechanism using a non-penal approach is more effective and efficient. This argument is based on the fact that because there is no need to confirm the crime of corruption as long as the perpetrator's assets are suspected to be illegal assets of corruption, this shortens the time. Confiscation of property or assets using non-penal means is more efficient when compared to confiscation of property or assets through civil means in accordance with the provisions of the Corruption Eradication Law (PTPK) which is legal in Indonesia. Because if in a criminal case using civil law it is the same as placing the burden on the prosecutor to carry out proof, then it actually increases the number of things that might happen, namely reconvention lawsuits against the prosecutor as the plaintiff. The asset confiscation mechanism using a non-penal approach no longer focuses on chasing perpetrators but rather following the movement of money so that the number of corruption in Indonesia is expected to decrease.
