Authors: Latha P. , Anitha T. , Swethasree M. , Srividya A. , Reddy C. Kiran Kumar
Published: July 2023

Background: Drought is a leading abiotic factor limiting groundnut production globally. Therefore, the screening and development of moisture stress tolerant groundnut genotypes is a key issue towards sustainable agriculture. Methods: An experiment was laid in a split plot design taking two conditions, control (T1) and moisture stress (T2) as main treatments and 7 genotypes of groundnut as sub treatments. Several morpho-physiological traits like dry matter production, dry matter partitioning, photosynthetic traits, relative water content, were measured after 10 days of stress imposition. Yield and yield attributes were also recorded at harvest along with drought tolerance index and principal component analysis. Result: Results showed significant differences among the genotypes at moisture stress and control conditions. Significant decrease was observed in chlorophyll content, total dry matter production, dry matter partitioning efficiency, relative water content, photosynthetic traits, except specific leaf area among all the genotypes. TCGS-1694 have been identified as moisture stress-tolerant genotypes in principal component analysis with higher efficiency interms of total dry matter production, photosynthetic rate, dry matter partitioning to pods, stress tolerance index, yield and yield attributes while Kadiri-6 has been identified as susceptible genotype.

The perspective on the market for higher education is essential in the understanding of the paths for the internationalization, that mainly our institutions are in pursue to increase their prestige and achievable economic resources. Nonetheless, reflection is needed in regard the application of market models, institutional diversity, institutional profiles and the feasibility of the double degrees and joint-degree programs. Lead us to the understanding of the junctions and paradoxes that Latin-American public institutions in their quest for upholding the equilibrium between social responsibility and self-interest, to provide identity to the “good institution” in the so-called global era. To this end, an analytical strategy of key texts and documents on market theories and models and higher education was adopted.

Authors: Narváez Trejo Oscar Manuel , Núñez Mercado Patricia , Cruz Martínez Cliserio Antonio , Estrada Sánchez Gabriela Guadalupe
Published: July 2023

Higher education institutions in Mexico face an early leaving phenomenon as one of their main challenges. This is why the main objective of this qualitative, transversal, descriptive research was to identify the reasons causing the students’ early leaving in an ELT teacher education program, so as to find strategies to deal with this problem. Institutional documents on students’ dropping out were systematically consulted and ten former students of a BA in English Language in a state university in the southeast of Mexico were interviewed in-depth. Data were analyzed using a content analysis approach. Results indicate that causes influencing undergraduate students’ decision of dropping out are multifactorial, and among them the most salient are related to a poor choice of a degree program, the faculty and school administration.
Keywords: dropping out; teacher education; pre-service teachers; ELT; México.

Образ жизни россиян разного возраста во время второго года пандемии
Authors:   HSE University, Moscow, Russia, Roshchina Ya. M.
Published: July 2023

В работе на основе данных «Российского мониторинга экономического положения и здоровья населения НИУ ВШЭ» (RLMS‑HSE) рассматриваются изменения, произошедшие в жизни россиян за два года пандемии COVID‑19. Несмотря на всю серьезность угрозы распространения коронавирусной инфекции, мерами, направленными на ее сдерживание, было охвачено меньше половины населения страны. К осени 2021 г. лишь 40% респондентов хотя бы один раз сдавали тест на антитела или ПЦР‑тест. Степень охвата тестированием была ниже среди молодых и пожилых людей. Около 3% респондентов имели подтвержденный диагноз COVID‑19 осенью 2020 г. К концу 2021 г. доля таких респондентов выросла до 14,4%. Доля респондентов, отказавшихся от вакцинации, снизилась с 41,5% в 2020 г. до 30% в 2021 г. При этом больше всего «отказников» оставалось среди молодых (37,2%) и пожилых (34%) людей. Значительное число респондентов в 2021 г. продолжали выражать недоверие вакцине, сомневались в ее надежности и безопасности. Всего к концу 2021 г. вакцинировались 45,8% респондентов, причем более трети из них сделали это вынужденно. Два года пандемии в большей степени повлияли на самооценку здоровья и в меньшей – на удовлетворенность материальным положением и отношениями внутри семьи. Доля респондентов, утверждавших, что их здоровье ухудшилось, выросла с 11,8 до 16,2%, в то время как уровень удовлетворенности своим материальным и семейным положением практически не изменился. В целом пандемия не оказала сильного влияния на образ жизни россиян. Она практически не сказалась на питании и досуге респондентов и не привела к ускоренному распространению вредных привычек. Одним из наиболее очевидных последствий пандемии стало ускоренное внедрение в повседневную жизнь цифровых технологий, связанное прежде всего с увеличением аудитории интернета и социальных сетей за счет пожилых людей. Однако несмотря на быстрый прирост пожилых пользователей, «цифровой разрыв» между старшими и младшими возрастами сохранялся

Published: July 2023

The rare boreo-alpine moss Herzogiella striatella was found on Mt Snježnik (W Croatia) in 2015 and constitutes the first national record. Two populations were recorded inside an old and hardly accessible spruce forest on steep boulders (Lonicero caerulae-Piceetum) along the Frankopanski Put hiking path. The markedly cool and humid microclimate ensured by small karst dolines within the forest shapes the specific bryophyte species composition with the elements of snowbed and timberline pine krummholz vegetation and the domination of boreal and arctic taxa. Due to its pronounced isolation from other European populations, the species is certainly of relict origin in Croatian Dinaric Alps.

Published: July 2023

Aim: Financial incentives improve response to electronic health surveys, yet little is known about how unconditional incentives (guaranteed regardless of survey completion), conditional incentives, and various combinations of incentives influence response rates. We compared electronic health survey completion with two different financial incentive structures. Methods: We invited women aged 30-64 years enrolled in a U.S. healthcare system and overdue for Pap screening to complete a web-based survey after receiving a mailed human papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling kit in a pragmatic trial. HPV kit returners (n = 272) and non-returners (n = 1,083) were allocated to one of two different incentive structures: (1) Unconditional: $5 pre-incentive only (n = 653); (2) Combined: $2 pre-incentive plus $10 post-incentive conditional on completion (n = 702). Chi-square tests evaluated whether survey completion differed by incentive structure within kit return groups or was modified by kit return status. For each incentive-by-kit status group, the cost-per-survey response was calculated as: ([number invited*pre-incentive amount] + [number responses*post-incentive amount]) / number responses. Results: Overall, survey response was higher in kit returners vs. kit non-returners (42.6% vs. 11.0%, P < 0.01), and survey response was higher in the combined (20.1%) vs. unconditional (14.4%) incentive group (P = 0.01). Kit return status did not modify the association between incentive type and survey response (P = 0.52). Among respondents, time to survey completion did not differ by incentive type among either kit returners or non-returners. Among returners, the cost-per-survey response was similar between groups ($13.57 unconditional; $14.15 combined); among non-returners, the cost was greater in the unconditional ($57.78) versus the combined ($25.22) group. Conclusion: A combined incentive can be cost-effective for increasing survey response in health services research, particularly in hard-to-reach populations.

Authors: Liu Dongqing , Shen Jun , Jian Zelang , Cai Xingke
Published: July 2023

The potassium (K) metal anode, following the "Holy Grail" Li metal anode, is one of the most promising anode materials for next-generation batteries. In comparison with Li, K exhibits even more pronounced energy storage properties. However, it suffers from similar challenges as most alkali metal anodes, such as safety and cyclability issues. Borrowing strategies from Li/Na metal anodes, the three-dimensional (3D)-structured current collector has proven to be a universal and effective strategy. This study examines the recent research progress of 3D-structured electrodes for K metal anodes, focusing on the most commonly used host materials, including carbon-, metal-, and MXene-related electrode materials. Finally, existing challenges, various perspectives on the rational design of K metal anodes, and the future development of K batteries are presented.

La toma de decisiones es una habilidad importante en la vida que se ha de potenciar desde las aulas. Sus beneficios se ven reflejados en la mejora del pensamiento crítico, al tomar decisiones, los estudiantes aprenden a evaluar opciones, analizar información y tomar decisiones informadas, lo que fortalece su pensamiento crítico. También se fomenta la independencia y la responsabilidad, dándoles a los estudiantes un sentido de control, contribuyendo a desarrollar confianza en su capacidad para tomar decisiones informadas y enseñándoles a ser responsables de las consecuencias de sus decisiones. Prepara a los estudiantes para la vida real, ya que se trata de una habilidad necesaria en la vida cotidiana y en el futuro profesional de los estudiantes, por lo que potenciar la toma de decisiones en el aula contribuye a una mejor preparación del alumnado para el mundo real. No podemos olvidarnos de la importancia que el desarrollo de la toma de decisiones tiene a la hora de promover la creatividad y la innovación, al tomar decisiones, los estudiantes deben pensar fuera de lo convencional y considerar múltiples soluciones posibles, lo que fomenta su creatividad y capacidad de innovación a la vez que propicia el aumento de la participación y el compromiso, dándole a los estudiantes voz en el aula.AbstractDecision-making is an important life skill that should be promoted in the classroom. Its benefits are reflected in the improvement of critical thinking. By making decisions, students learn to evaluate options, analyze information and make informed decisions, which strengthens their critical thinking. It also fosters independence and responsibility, giving students a sense of control, helping them develop confidence in their ability to make informed decisions and teaching them to be responsible for the consequences of their decisions. It prepares students for real life, as it is a necessary skill in everyday life and in students' future careers, so enhancing decision-making in the classroom contributes to better prepare students for the real world. We cannot forget the importance of developing decision making in promoting creativity and innovation. When making decisions, students must think outside the box and consider multiple possible solutions, which fosters their creativity and innovativeness while increasing participation and engagement, giving students a voice in the classroom.
Patient satisfaction with Indonesian sharia hospital services: Halal healthcare tool and implications for loyalty-WoM
Authors: Alfarizi Muhammad , Arifian Rafialdo
Published: July 2023

Purpose − Analyze the psychology of patients related to halal healthcare tools that impact their loyalty intentions to Sharia hospitals in Indonesia for health visits and the implications of word of mouth on the community.Methodology − The research employed quantitative techniques by utilizing cross-sectional survey information gathered from Sharia hospital patients in Indonesia, selected through convenience sampling methods. The study analyzed a total of 229 patient responses through the application of structural equation modeling.Findings − Sharia facilities, doctor-nurse services, medical expertise and administrative conduct as indicators of halal health services affect patient satisfaction in sharia hospitals. However, there is resistance to the influence of the medical facility atmosphere on satisfaction caused by the concentration of patients in medical services and solving health problems. Patient satisfaction affects loyalty which in turn gives a positive word of mouth effect.Implications − Islamic hospitals should prioritize patient assessment and satisfaction by reviewing their physical facilities, cleanliness, comfort, and spiritual needs. Medical personnel should enhance communication and sharia-compliant practices. Digitalization and improved service standards are essential, requiring adaptability and technology integration. Regular evaluations and external monitoring are vital. The government should collaborate with relevant ministries and organizations to intensively monitor and improve the quality of sharia hospitals. Originality − This study develops new knowledge on indicators of special services for sharia hospitals according to halal standards by integrating the outputs of satisfaction, loyalty and Word of Mouth (WoM) outputs which have been separated so far but have a chronological sequence in line with existing marketing theory.
Microwave Field Distribution in Grain Drying Installations for Different Types of Emissions
Authors: Vasilyev Alexey A. , Vasilyev Alexey N. , Budnikov Dmitry
Published: July 2023

The microwave field is used for drying and disinfection of grain, during pre-sowing seed treat-ment. The use of a microwave field in these installations leads to an increase in their productivity and a decrease in the energy consumed by them. One of the principal problems of microwave field use for treatment of dense grain layers is to insure sufficient distribution uniformity of the field. In this article, waveguide design options have been discussed that serve to introduce microwave radiation into the grain layer. Mathematical simulation of the electromagnetic field distribution was performed with the use of CST Microwave Studio software in order to evaluate and compare horn-type, rectangular and semicircular waveguides. The data on the standing wave ratio and radiation efficiency for these types of waveguides have been reported. Specific features of the microwave electromagnetic field distribution and radiation power in the output of those wave-guides have been described. Results of mathematical simulations enabled to make out that sem-icircular waveguides with slot-type radiators are preferable for processing dense grain layers.
Internet of Things (IoT) in Buildings: A Learning Factory
Authors: Cano-Suñén Enrique , Ruiz Ignacio Martínez , Fernández Cuello Ángel , Zalba Belén , Casas Roberto
Published: July 2023

Advances towards smart ecosystems showcases Internet of Things (IoT) as a transversal strategy to improve energy efficiency in buildings, to enhance their comfort and environmental conditions, and to grow knowledge about building behavior, its relationships with the users and the interconnections among themselves and with the environmental and ecological context. EU estimates that 75% of the building stock is inefficient and aged with +40 years old. Although many buildings have some kind of system for regulating their indoor temperature, only a small subset provides integrated Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems; within that subset, only a low percentage includes smart sensors, and only a minimum of that percentage integrates those sensors into IoT ecosystems. This work proposes several contributions. On the one hand, to understand the built environment as a set of interconnected systems that constitute a complex framework where IoT ecosystems are key enabling technologies to improve energy efficiency and Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) by filling the gap between theoretical simulations and real measurements. On the other hand, to understand IoT ecosystems as cost-effective solutions where: acquire data through connected sensors, analyze information in real-time, and build knowledge to make data-driven decisions. Furthermore, data set is public for third-party use to contribute scientific community to their research studies. Thus, this paper also contributes with a detailed functional scheme of IoT ecosystem deployed in 3 buildings of University of Zaragoza (Spain) with +200 geolocated wireless sensors with +100 representative spaces. The obtained results, through real installations with IoT as learning factory, show several learned lessons (about building complexity; energy consumption, costs and savings; and IAQ and health improvement) and contribute, as a proof-of-concept, with a proposal of prediction of building performance based on both correlations (between CO2 and occupancy) and neural networks (applied to CO2 and temperature). In summary, in a real context of economic restrictions, complexity, higher energy costs, social vulnerability and climate change, IoT-based strategies, as proposed in this work, highlight as an open, modular and interoperable approach to move towards smart communities (buildings, cities, regions, etc.) by improving energy efficiency and environmental quality (indoor and outdoor) with low cost, quick implementation, and low impact on users within great challenges for growth, interconnection, climate change and sustainability.

Authors: Huang Xuxing , Li Xuefeng , Li Hequn , Yang Yihao , Duan Shanda , Xiao Wuning , Du Han , Liu Hao
Published: July 2023

The rock strata movement deformation generated by the mining process of the mine will inevitably lead to surface subsidence and a series of environmental hazards, so it is particularly important to monitor the rock strata movement deformation and surface subsidence in the goaf area. With the development of surface subsidence monitoring technology, InSAR technology has been widely used in the research of surface subsidence in mining areas with the advantages of high precision and wide monitoring. In this paper, by obtaining the image data of 59 Sentinel-1A scenes in the mining area, the obtained PS points were analyzed and processed by ArcGIS difference analysis by PS-InSAR technology, and the surface deformation cloud map and settlement curve of the mining area in various periods were obtained, and the rock strata movement deformation and surface subsidence law of the goaf before treatment and after different treatment methods were studied by influencing factors such as stope layout and mining depth. The results show that the rock strata movement deformation and surface subsidence degree of the goaf under different treatment methods are different due to different influencing factors, and their positions also change dynamically with time. Applying InSAR technology to study rock strata movement deformation and surface subsidence can provide an important basis for mine safety mining, goaf treatment, rock strata movement deformation and surface subsidence monitoring.

Published: July 2023

Polymer-based composites represent a separate class of materials in demand by the industry. In comparison with other polymers, UHMWPE is characterized by exceptionally high wear and impact resistance. In this work, compacts were produced from UHMWPE GUR 4120 powder with the addition of Nanoscale Detonation Carbon (NDC) and Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) on a hydro-pneumatic impact device by the Cyclic Impact Compaction (CIC) technique. The obtained samples were subjected to wear resistance test, their hardness and tensile strength were measured. Studies have shown that the addition of NDС and SWCNTs in UHMWPE leads to an increase in hardness by 6.4 and 19.6%, to a decrease in wear by 11.5 and 38.5% and a decrease in the coefficient of friction by 10 and 20%, respectively.

Purpose: For businesses of all sizes, turnover is a significant issue that has a detrimental impact on organizational performance. This study investigates the variables influencing SME workers' intentions to leave their current employers. This study also examines the moderating effect of organizational commitment on the relationships between attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and turnover intentions. Methodology: Six hypotheses were proposed regarding the connections between the initial TPB components and organizational commitment. Results: The PLS-SEM structural path analysis findings revealed that the three fundamental predictors of TPB significantly influence turnover intention, with perceived behavioral control most strongly influencing intention. Furthermore, the results revealed that organizational commitment moderated the relationship between TPB constructs and turnover intention. Practical Implications and Originality: This study used an extended TPB model to introduce fresh perspectives into the literature on SME workers' organizational commitment.

To reduce environmental impacts from sodium silicate synthesis it was suggested the use of sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) as a source of silicon dioxide and sodium carbonate using the ceramic method. Although the production of sodium silicate is carried out on a large scale, it should be noted that its process requires temperatures above 1000 °C or the use of highly corrosive agents such as sodium hydroxide and chlorine gas used to neutralize the remaining sodium hydroxide. In the present work, the synthesis temperatures were reduced to 800 °C with a reaction time of 3 hours by pressing equimolar mixtures of previously purified SCBA and sodium carbonate, then heat treatment was carried out under the indicated conditions. The resulting materials were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Among the crystalline phases, calcium disodium silicate was identified, in addition to sodium silicate, so it was inferred that the other components of the ash can interfere with the synthesis of silicate. Therefore, to obtain the highest composition of sodium silicate, a leaching treatment of the SCBA is required.

Creep is a fundamental property naturally exists in some types of rock, which is significant for the long-term stability of roadways during the mining process. In this paper, the long-term strength of coal and rock were obtained via laboratory experiments, and a Cvisc elasto-viscoplastic model was adopted and introduced in FLAC3D, based on the 3101 transport roadway in Hongqinghe Coal Mine, to investigate the influence of creep on the stability of deep-high stress roadway. The test results show that the long-term strength of 3-1 coal and sandy mudstone, respectively, is 18.65 MPa, 39.95 MPa. The plastic zone, the deformation, and the damage of roadway surrounding rock behave an obvious increase after being excavated for 720d as the creep model was chosen. The plastic zone failure with models shear-p (1090.7 m3), shear-n (381.7 m3), tension-n (98.4 m3), and tension-p (30.8 m3), the damage value has an obvious increment of increased 21.2% (0.053), the deformation increases in the order is two-sidewalls (1978 mm), roof (907 mm), floor (101 mm). The creep of the roadway can be divided into three stages: the accelerating stage, the decaying stage, and the stable stage. The creep speed of each stage is greatly affected by the presence or absence of anchor spray support: the creep speed of the bare roadway roof, roadway side, and floor stability, respectively, is 1.01, 1.02, and 0.12 mm/d; After anchor spray support, the creep velocity, correspondingly, decreased to 0.69, 0.37, and 0.12 mm/d, and the amount of surrounding rock damage decreased from 0.302 to 0.243. This indicates that the anchor spray support can significantly reduce the creep effect of the roadway. The Cvisc creep model was verified reliable and can provide guidance for deep high-stress coal roadway support.

A rigid protruding surface, agitator and vortex generator often dissipate more energy than to produce a satisfied turbulence production. In contrast, a passively-oscillating flexible protruding surface has the ability in generating greater turbulence level. In the current study, a circular finite cylinder (cantilever) was used as the geometry of the rigid and protruding surface. They were varied through the aspect ratio (AR) and materials. Also, a local Reynolds number within the subcritical flow range (102<ReD<105) was considered. The results from the rigid protruding surface (finite cylinder) is served as a validation to the published results and benchmark to the improve-ment of the turbulence generated by the flexible protruding surface. It was mentioned in the pre-vious work that the increment of turbulence production by the flexible cylinder is speculated to be oscillation, this work investigates the validity of the speculation through manipulating the struc-tural stiffness of the flexible cylinder by employing different materials. The results have further demonstrated that the flexible cylinder is capable of generating a greater turbulence through the examination of turbulence intensity, turbulence production term and Reynolds stress. All the flex-ible cylinders that oscillate show increment in turbulence production but at a different percentage. The cylinders studied in this work ranged from the least structural stiffness (EVA), moderate (al-uminium) to the highest structural stiffness (carbon steel). Through studying the normalized am-plitude responses graph of the flexible cylinder, it is identified that the oscillating motion does in-deed contribute to increment. A further investigation into the results, it is found that the factor which governs the increment is the structural velocity instead of just oscillating motion alone.

The research code MARPLE was originally created to model high-speed dynamic processes caused by the action of high-intensity energy fluxes on matter. At present, it is a universal tool able to solve various continuum mechanics problems. The implemented physical models are the following: single-fluid two-temperature MHD model of plasma dynamics, including electron-ion energy exchange and generalized Ohm's law; model of electrical and thermal conductivity taking into account the anisotropy in the magnetic field; radiative heat transfer: models pertinent to optically thin as well as optically thick media: techniques for taking into account radiative cooling losses, spectral multigroup diffusion transfer, laser radiation propagation etc.; model of multicomponent flow. Calculations are performed using wide-range equations of state, transport and optical data. The MARPLE code utilises modern computational technologies based on block structured and unstructured meshes consisting of tetrahedral, hexahedral, prismatic elements and their combinations. The solvers implement conservation laws using high-resolution techniques. We apply the physical splitting to solve the governing system. The object-oriented approach to software design is used, as well as methods of object and generic programming (C++ implementation language). Design of computational domains is provided by means of integrated SALOME open source CAD-CAE system. Marple works as MPI application for modern HPC systems. The paper presents examples of problems in plasma dynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, astrophysics, and solid thermomechanics solved by means of the MARPLE code.

The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a political participation scale for youth, considering both traditional and digital political participation (DTPP). The research was conducted using 458 participants from Turkey, Italy, and Romania, aged between 15 and 29 years. Explanatory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were performed to test the structural validity of the scale. EFA results illustrated that scale consisted of three factors and the total variance was 61.23%. These factors were labeled as “digital political support”, “traditional political support” and “digital political following”. During confirmatory factor analysis, the three-factor structure was tested, and the resulting model produced an acceptable goodness of fit The scale consists of 39 items and the reliability coefficients for each subscale vary from .92 and .95. The results show that the scale is valid and reliable to measure traditional and digital political participation of young people.
