Implementación de la notificación electrónica en el procedimiento administrativo sancionador en la Superintendencia de Transporte Terrestre de Personas, Carga y Mercancías – SUTRAN
Authors:   , Carrizo Coronado Roy Martin
Published: November 2023

La presente investigación se realizó con el objetivo de determinar cómo la notificación electrónica, puede contribuir a la eficacia, reducción de costos, y de t iempos de atención, en el desarrollo del procedimiento administrativo sancionador en la Superintendencia de Transporte Terrestre de Personas, Cargas y Mercancías - SUTRAN, con el objeto de impulsar un cambio sustantivo en la acción de dicha entidad al momento de notificar los diversos actos administrativos que emite en el ejercicio regular de sus funciones en dicho procedimiento. Dentro del marco de su competencia, los actos administrativos relacionados al procedimiento administrativo sancionador (PAS), por el incumplimiento de la normativa en materia de transporte, conlleva a la emisión de una serie de actos administrativos desde el inicio de este y hasta su conclusión, siendo una práctica común que estos actos sean notificados a los interesados de manera personal. La forma de notificación electrónica a implementar, resulto satisfactorio en cuanto al logro de los objetivos planteados. Fundamentamos este nivel de cumplimiento en el desarrollo del trabajo, teniendo en cuenta el contexto nacional e internacional, producto de la pandemia producida por el COVID - 19, lo que conllevará a replantear los procesos internos en la gestión administrativa pública a futuro.

A valência em Bakairi e os verbos intransitivos na família Karib
Authors: Xagope Valdo , Bonfim Evandro
Published: November 2023

O artigo tem como objetivo discutir as principais hipóteses acerca do surgimento dos verbos intransitivos ativos nas línguas da Família Karib à luz das discussões de Souza sobre os mecanismos de mudança de valência e as classes de verbos inacusativos e inergativos em Bakairi. A partir de dados de primeira mão da língua, o texto busca contribuir para as formulações mais gerais sobre as relações entre verbos intransitivos e transitivos na Família Karib, apontando para a complexidade interna do agrupamento genético no que diz respeito ao estatuto dos verbos moargumentais.
O diálogo com o discurso citado e a construção da posição autoral na produção do gênero resenha acadêmica
Authors: Silva Sibely Oliveira
Published: November 2023

Se se admite que a escrita é tessitura tramada num espaço de heterogeneidades, como assumir o estatuto de autor (exigência da escrita acadêmica) quando se é um principiante, estudante universitário, que recorre a outras vozes/teóricos e que é convocado a agenciar alteridades para se constituir singularmente como uma voz autoral? Neste trabalho, busco responder a esta pergunta, apoiando-me nas contribuições dos estudos do discurso e da perspectiva dialógica da linguagem, bem como nos estudos que concebem a escrita como processo e trabalho. Ancorado na metodologia de abordagem qualitativa, o método de pesquisa adotado é o da pesquisa-ação. De um modo geral, os resultados da pesquisa apontam para a necessidade de que as ações de formação para a escrita na universidade privilegiem alguns dos princípios que envolvem a escrita acadêmica e a construção de uma posição autoral, numa perspectiva dialógico-discursiva, que transcenda a perspectiva comumente referendada nos manuais de escrita acadêmica. Além disso, em linhas gerais, os resultados apontam que os percursos de escrita dos alunos são marcados por um processo de (re)construção do posicionamento autoral marcadamente não linear, no qual a voz autoral vai se (re)modelando ao compasso que os sujeitos apreendem determinados valores inerentes à escrita acadêmica, retroagem sobre o processo de produção de sentidos dos textos e, consequentemente, ressignificam suas escolhas (posicionamentos, citações pinçadas dos textos resenhados, interatuam sobre os seus saberes, estabelecendo novas filiações de sentido com e a partir deles)

The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether consumer intention to use and behavior with regard to digital wallets is influenced by factors such as sales promotions, habits, hedonic motivation, perceived benefits, and convenience. The demographic included in this study consists of actual people who use digital wallets in Indonesia. Purposive sampling combined with non-probability sampling was the sample strategy employed. The sample for this study included 200 users of digital wallets. In this study, a field survey with a questionnaire instrument was used as the data gathering method. Path analysis using SPSS AMOS is the data analysis technique employed in this study. The findings of the study led to the following deductions: The benefits that users of digital wallets believe to be obtained are influenced by their perceived convenience. Perceived ease of use has no bearing on users' intention to use digital wallets. Perceived utility has no bearing on a person's inclination to utilize a digital wallet. Perceived benefits have an impact on consumers' usage behavior while using digital wallets. The intention to utilize a digital wallet is influenced by hedonic incentive. The intention to utilize digital wallets is influenced by one's behaviors. The usage patterns of users of digital wallets are influenced by habit. Sales promotions have little effect on how users of digital wallets use their devices. Users' usage behavior of digital wallets is influenced by their intention to use one.

Towards a Shared Framework: A Classificatory Matrix for Teaching Data Standards
Authors: Badger Kelsey
Published: November 2023

Standards for research data can be a mystifying topic for both researchers and data professionals.  A common source of confusion is that they are multipurpose: standards can (and should) be applied to both primary data and metadata, enabling a wide range of functions from the search features in a repository to the integration of disparate data sources. This paper reviews examples of classificatory approaches used by both librarians and researchers to describe data standards. This literature is synthesized into a classificatory matrix that can be used to map different types of standards. The matrix is constructed around two organizing principles: purpose (finding or using data) and type of information controlled (meaning or syntax). The objective of this classificatory exercise is to encourage further discussion about the misunderstandings between researchers and data support professionals and to spur further development of the educational resources needed to improve understanding and use of data standards.
Magnesium and groundwater flow relationship in karst aquifers: a tool for exploitation management of springs
Authors: De Filippi Francesco Maria , Sappa Giuseppe
Published: November 2023

Karst aquifers are characterized by different types of groundwater flow, related to different types of permeability due to the simultaneous presence of matrix, fractures and conduits. The presence of a well-developed karst conduit system leads to a rapid circulation of groundwater within the aquifer and a pulse-type response of the spring flow to the rainfall inputs, with a potential fast transport of contaminants from the hydrogeological basin surface to the discharge zones. Supported by hydro chemical analyses of spring water samples and single discharge measurements, it was possible to develop specific mass balance models, correlating ion content to spring flowrates. Specifically, Mg2+ content revealed a reliable application for spring baseflow separation in karst settings. Once the local model has been set, its conservative behaviour, in mostly limestone-dominant aquifers, allows using Mg2+ as a natural tracer of groundwater flow, distinguishing conduit flow (overflow) and diffuse flow (baseflow) occurrence in the spring outlet, without additional discharge measurements. In karst settings, the difficulty in continuously monitoring the spring discharge values makes this application interesting for exploitation management. This study shows the results obtained for two springs located in Central Italy, confirming that monitoring groundwater quality in karst environments is often the key for successfully characterizing springs and assessing the total yield when direct measurements are not available.
Mesotrode allows chronic simultaneous mesoscale cortical imaging and subcortical or peripheral nerve spiking activity recording in mice
Authors: Xiao Dongsheng , Yan Yuhao , Murphy Timothy H
Published: November 2023

Brain function originates from hierarchical spatial-temporal neural dynamics distributed across cortical and subcortical networks. However, techniques available to assess large-scale brain network activity with single-neuron resolution in behaving animals remain limited. Here, we present Mesotrode that integrates chronic wide-field mesoscale cortical imaging and compact multi-site cortical/subcortical cellular electrophysiology in head-fixed mice that undergo self-initiated running or orofacial movements. Specifically, we harnessed the flexibility of chronic multi-site tetrode recordings to monitor single-neuron activity in multiple subcortical structures while simultaneously imaging the mesoscale activity of the entire dorsal cortex. A mesoscale spike-triggered averaging procedure allowed the identification of cortical activity motifs preferentially associated with single-neuron spiking. Using this approach, we were able to characterize chronic single-neuron-related functional connectivity maps for up to 60 days post-implantation. Neurons recorded from distinct subcortical structures display diverse but segregated cortical maps, suggesting that neurons of different origins participate in distinct cortico-subcortical pathways. We extended the capability of Mesotrode by implanting the micro-electrode at the facial motor nerve and found that facial nerve spiking is functionally associated with the PTA, RSP, and M2 network, and optogenetic inhibition of the PTA area significantly reduced the facial movement of the mice. These findings demonstrate that Mesotrode can be used to sample different combinations of cortico-subcortical networks over prolonged periods, generating multimodal and multi-scale network activity from a single implant, offering new insights into the neural mechanisms underlying specific behaviors.
Senescence of endplate osteoclasts induces sensory innervation and spinal pain
Authors: Pan Dayu , Benkato Kheiria Gamal , Han Xuequan , Zheng Jinjian , Kumar Vijay , Wan Mei , Zheng Junying , Cao Xu
Published: November 2023

Spinal pain affects individuals of all ages and is the most common musculoskeletal problem globally. Its clinical management remains a challenge as the underlying mechanisms leading to it are still unclear. Here, we report that significantly increased numbers of senescent osteoclasts (SnOCs) are observed in mouse models of spinal hypersensitivity, like lumbar spine instability (LSI) or aging, compared to controls. The larger population of SnOCs is associated with induced sensory nerve innervation, as well as the growth of H-type vessels, in the porous endplate. We show that deletion of senescent cells by administration of the senolytic drug Navitoclax (ABT263) results in significantly less spinal hypersensitivity, spinal degeneration, porosity of the endplate, sensory nerve innervation, and H-type vessel growth in the endplate. We also show that there is significantly increased SnOC-mediated secretion of Netrin-1 and NGF, two well-established sensory nerve growth factors, compared to non-senescent OCs. These findings suggest that pharmacological elimination of SnOCs may be a potent therapy to treat spinal pain.

Published: November 2023

Virtual machine scheduling and resource allocation mechanism in the process of dynamic virtual machine consolidation is a promising access to alleviate the cloud data centers of prominent energy consumption and service level agreement violations with improvement in quality of service (QoS). In this article, we propose an efficient algorithm (AESVMP) based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for the virtual machine scheduling in accordance with the measure. Firstly, we take into consideration three key criteria including the host of power consumption, available resource and resource allocation balance ratio, in which the ratio can be calculated by the balance value between overall three-dimensional resource (CPU, RAM, BW) flat surface and resource allocation flat surface (when new migrated virtual machine (VM) consumed the targeted host’s resource). Then, virtual machine placement decision is determined by the application of multi-criteria decision making techniques AHP embedded with the above-mentioned three criteria. Extensive experimental results based on the CloudSim emulator using 10 PlanetLab workloads demonstrate that the proposed approach can reduce the cloud data center of number of migration, service level agreement violation (SLAV), aggregate indicators of energy comsumption (ESV) by an average of 51.76%, 67.4%, 67.6% compared with the cutting-edge method LBVMP, which validates the effectiveness.

A redução das receitas e a manutenção ou aumento das despesas, em termos reais, resultam em insustentabilidade da situação fiscal. Como consequência, surgem índices crescentes de endividamento público, observados nas esferas federal e estadual e refletidos no âmbito municipal brasileiro. Apesar das transferências intragovernamentais de receitas representarem uma forma de redução das desigualdades econômicas regionais, prevista constitucionalmente, este mecanismo tende a ampliar a dependência dos municípios em relação a estados e ao governo central. No ano de 2000 é editada a Lei de Responsabilidade Fiscal, com o intuito de estabelecer maior governança à Administração Pública, estabelecimento de limites de despesas e de endividamento, inclusive para municípios. Nesse contexto, o presente artigo objetiva analisar a sustentabilidade da dívida pública municipal agregada no período de vigência da Lei de Responsabilidade Fiscal, por meio da verificação da existência de raiz unitária e cointegração das séries de dívida/PIB e superávit primário/PIB, bem como análise de comportamento do superávit em função do crescimento da economia e das taxas de juros, especificamente com dados mensais anualizados no período entre dezembro de 2002 e agosto de 2016. Os resultados indicaram a condição de sustentabilidade de 2002 a 2015, mas testes suplementares revelaram insustentabilidade a partir de março de 2015, condição que se estendeu até agosto de 2016, mesmo após o afrouxamento fiscal, cujos efeitos surgiram em fevereiro de 2016.

Published: November 2023

The principal as an administrative officer has the duty of providing professional guidance and assistance to teachers for the improvement of their instructional delivery. The study seeks to ascertain the correlation between the discipline of schools, the system of rewards, and the efficacy of administrative practices implemented by principals in secondary schools in Uyo, Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. The chosen research design was a correlation research design. The population consisted of all 374 members of the teaching staff in 15 public secondary schools in the study area. A sample comprising 76 teachers was selected from three schools chosen at random. The technique employed for this purpose was simple random sampling. A researcher made instrument, titled "Principals Administrative Efficacy Questionnaire" (PAEQ), was employed for data collection. The reliability of the PAEQ was determined to be 0.89 through the use of Cronbach Alpha Statistics. To test the two hypotheses, Pearson product moment correlation statistics was employed at p≤0.05 level of significance. The findings of the study indicated that there exists a weak positive correlation between school discipline, the reward system, and the administrative efficacy of principals in secondary schools. As a result, it was concluded that a relationship does exist between school discipline, the reward system, and the administrative efficacy of principals in secondary schools.

Mild steel corrosion inhibition in 1 M HCl solution by semi-pure seeds extracts of Cola nitida was investigated using gravimetric and electrochemical (potentiodynamic polarization) methods. The results obtained reveal that dichloromethane (DCM) semi-pure seeds extracts of C. nitida coded Mb4 and Mb5) inhibited mild steel corrosion in hydrochloric acid solution. The inhibition efficiency, by the gravimetric method, increased with increase in the extracts concentration but decreased with increase in temperature. The inhibition efficiency by the potentiodynamic polarization also increased with increase in extract concentration. The evaluated thermodynamic parameters revealed that the corrosion inhibition process was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements revealed that the extracts were mixed – type inhibitors since E_corrvalues were less than the threshold value of 85 mV. The adsorption of the extracts onto mild steel surface fitted the Temkin adsorption isotherm. Scanning electron micrographs revealed the formation of protective dense film on the steel surface in the presence of the extracts compared to the blank. Physical adsorption has been proposed for the adsorption of C. nitida seeds extracts onto mild steel surface.

Lead Sulphide (PbS) nanoparticles were processed using ball milling techniques. The processed PbS nanoparticles were characterized using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM),, energy dispersive analysis (EDAX), and electrical investigation using four-point probe. The XRD results of the PbS nanoparticles show peaks at the crystal plane (111), (200), (210), (211) and (320). The average size of PbS nanoparticles crystallite is found to be 51.05 nm. The optical energy band gap of PbS nanoparticles dispersed in ethanol was observed to be 3.98ev and 4.06eV for PbS nanoparticles dispersed in distilled water. The absorbance of PbS nanoparticles shows that the absorbance values were moderate in the UV region but dramatically decreased as they moved towards the visible and near-infrared regions. The EDX analysis shows that PbS nanoparticles is composed of 54.36% Pb, 36.47% C and 9.16% S. The sheet resistance, resistivity, and conductivity were measured and found to be 1.51 × 107 Ω/Sq., 3.61 Ω.cm and 2.77 × 10-1 (Ω.cm)-1 for PbS nanoparticles. PbS nanoparticles are classified as promising materials for various electronics and optoelectronic devices based on the determined properties.

Minimum tillage methods offer numerous benefits compared to conventional tillage, including reduced farm operations to establish a good seedbed. Spot tillage, in particular, has advantages such as preserving soil structure, preventing erosion, saving time and energy, and reducing input costs. For this study, the effect of different auger size (40, 50 & 70mm) which was operated by 12V DC motor at different depth of operations (80, 120 & 160mm) were determined. The different parameters were measured such as bulk density, cone index, germination percentage, root length, root weight and cob weight for maize crop (GAYMH-3) and same for traditional sowing method. The results showed that auger size (40, 50 & 70mm) and depth of operation (80, 120 & 160mm) significantly influenced bulk density as bulk density of the soil increased with depth and decrease with increase in auger size. The larger auger (70mm) resulting in lower values in bulk density due to more soil removal. However, cone index was not significantly affected by auger size (40, 50 & 70mm) and depth of operation (80, 120 & 160mm). Seed germination for maize was consistently around 90%, with no significant effects of auger size and depth of operation were observed. An auger size (70mm) was associated with shorter root lengths. Increasing depth resulted in greater root development, leading to longer roots was observed in small size augers. Larger auger size and deeper depths generally resulted in higher root weights. Cob weight increased with auger size (70mm) and deeper depths. Auger size and depth significantly impacted cob weight. Overall, results showed that auger having the size of 70mm and depth of operation at 160mm was desirable compared to other auger size in terms of lower bulk density and cone index but increased root weight and cob weight of maize crop.

Laser‐based powder bed fusion of metals (PBF‐LB/M) is found to be a promising processing method for the fabrication of components with no limits of complexity by adding layers upon layers of material. However, drawbacks such as productivity and dimension limitations adversely affect the employment of components processed by additive manufacturing (AM) in envisaged applications. This brings welding and joining techniques into play to integrate AM metal parts into larger assemblies. In the present study, electron beam welding is used to join the AlSi10Mg specimens, fabricated via two different manufacturing processes, that is, PBF‐LB/M and casting. The main focus is to study the quasistatic and fatigue behavior of similar and dissimilar welded joints in different combinations, namely AM–AM, AM–cast, and cast–cast, alongside thorough microstructure analysis, to investigate the correlation between the microscopic and macroscopic properties. Dissimilar welded joints demonstrate inferior material strength. This fact can be attributed to the inherent coarse microstructure of the cast material. Although similar welded joints of AM components suffer from high porosity in the weld zone, they are characterized by a better fatigue life, which can be attributed to the equiaxed eutectic microstructure in the welded area.

The introduction of porous hierarchical microstructures effectively improves the sensitivity of flexible pressure sensors. However, it is difficult to achieve porous hierarchical microstructures for pressure sensors through inexpensive, efficient, and simple preparation methods. Herein, a hemispherical array with porous hierarchical microstructure is prepared on polydimethylsiloxane substrate using a simple one‐step microwave curing process with glucose as porogen. Furthermore, the flexible electrode based on the polydimethylsiloxane substrate is combined with an ionic liquid polymeric gel membrane to obtain a flexible capacitive pressure sensor. Thanks to the deformability of porous hierarchical microstructure and the double‐dielectric layer effect of ionic liquid polymeric gel membrane, the sensor displays an ultrahigh sensitivity of 131.21 kPa−1 within 0–1 kPa. Meanwhile, the sensor has short response time, excellent dynamic loading stability, as well as excellent long‐term stability (>3000 cycles). In application testing, the sensor effectively monitors various physiological activities like pulse, breathe, speech, and swallowing, demonstrating its good prospects in the field of health electronics. Most importantly, the proposed microwave curing method can realize the preparation of porous hierarchical structure on flexible substrate through a one‐step process, which offers a fresh way for the economical, green, and efficient preparation of high‐sensitivity capacitive pressure sensors.

In recent years, two‐dimensional (2D) materials with unique mechanical, optical, and electrical properties have attracted extensive attention. In terms of mechanical properties, 2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) can perform larger strains than traditional semiconductor materials. In this contribution, the chemical vapor deposition technique to grow MoS2 films on a Si wafer and transfer them onto a flexible substrate is used. The controlled deformation of 2D MoS2 samples is realized by encapsulating them with a flexible acrylate film via successive spin‐coating and photopolymerization. Improved strain control is achieved due to the perfect integration of different components (MoS2/substrate) and the high adhesion of polymers. This approach provides a better detection of the changing structure of the MoS2 monolayer on the flexible substrate during tensile. It is noted that the crystal symmetry damage caused by strain is reflected in the redshift of the characteristic bands of MoS2. Hence, an effective way for strain regulation of MoS2 for future applications in flexible devices is provided.

Polymer‐based composites combining the flexibility, low density, and processability of the matrix with the tailored functional performance provided by the fillers are also particularly suitable for large area, flexible, and printable applications. Herein, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composites with conductive graphene nanoplatelets (G‐NPL) and high‐dielectric constant ceramics, including barium and strontium titanate (BT and SrT), have been developed to achieve electrically conductive and high‐dielectric response materials, respectively. Flexible composites reinforced with 45 wt% ceramic content lead to a dielectric constant of ε´ = 33 and 25 for BT and SrT, respectively, 6 and 4 times higher than for pristine PVDF. Further, the inclusion of G‐NPL allows for the development of highly conductive composites with a maximum conductivity of 5.5 × 10−2 (Ω.m)−1 for a 5 wt% filler content, 10 orders of magnitude larger than PVDF. The G‐NPL and ceramic in optimized contents in PVDF tricomposites do not enhance the dielectric properties compared to PVDF‐ceramic composites. Theoretical analysis has been used to determine the critical percolation threshold of the PVDF/G‐NPL, which occurs at 0.6 wt% G‐NPL content with a critical exponent of t = 2.49 and to describe the dielectric properties of the composites, allowing to further tailor materials responses for specific application needs.
