Classical Liberalism’s Evolutionary Foundations Reconsidered
Authors: Montanye James A.
Published: October 2024

The economist and Nobelist Friedrich (F. A.) Hayek argues that classical liberal principles of individual liberty, free markets, and spontaneous order are rooted in evolved aspects of human nature. To establish a natural-law proof supporting this argument, Hayek borrowed from Charles Darwin’s controversial theory of natural selection occurring at the group level. Some scholars challenge Hayek’s reliance upon Darwinian theory, and yet the modern literature in economics, history, biology, paleontology, sociobiology, physical sciences, and nonlinear complex adaptive systems supports the conceptual basis of Hayek’s evolutionary approach. It also suggests that the civil and economic strands of classical liberalism and libertarianism represent a distinct phase within an evolutionary progression, although not the telos that Hayek claimed. This article examines Hayek’s argument, its criticisms and justifications, and alternative scientific and linguistic theories explaining the adaptive evolution of social and economic systems. The implications of this examination transcend the bounds of Hayek’s argument.
La mediatización del proceso electoral en Argentina:
Authors: Arcangeletti Antonella , Cecchini Murúa Bianca , Tello María José
Published: October 2024

En 2023 la Argentina atravesó un proceso electoral que, a nivel nacional, incluyó tres instancias. Ciudadanos/as debieron votar en unas PASO, unas generales y luego en un balotaje para definir al nuevo Presidente de la nación; finalmente, la fórmula de La Libertad Avanza, encabezada por Javier Milei y Victoria Villarruel, ganó las elecciones. En ese escenario, los medios de comunicación cumplen un rol fundamental para la sociedad. Amparado en las teorías de la agenda setting y el framing y en la metodología del análisis de contenido cuantitativo, este trabajo pretende analizar la cobertura mediática que ocho diarios digitales, de diferente escala y estructura de propiedad, hicieron del fenómeno; en términos específicos, se pretende identificar la relevancia del tema, los tópicos que se le asociaron y los encuadres que predominaron. Los principales hallazgos se pueden sintetizar en que en términos descriptivos los distintos tipos de medios aquí analizados llevaron una agenda similar, que la relevancia del tema estuvo asociada a los eventos del calendario electoral, que hubo una mediatización de las acciones de los candidatos/as más que de propuestas y que primaron los encuadres emocionales (consenso/conflicto) por sobre los racionales (posiciones oficialistas/opositoras)
Devenir supermanzana.
Authors: Ortiz Narvaja María Macarena
Published: October 2024

Este artículo parte de la trama ciudad/comunicación/cultura, para explorar las prácticas espaciales cotidianas en el Mercado Norte y su alrededor atendiendo a los sujetos y el uso, apropiación y reapropiación de este espacio devenido en supermanzana cordobesa, capital provincial inmersa en un proceso de embellecimiento estratégico y turistificación, intensificado postpandemia. En un primer momento, se expone la perspectiva teórico/analítica desde la cual se observa a la ciudad; para luego detallar antecedentes y la historia del espacio social a estudiar. Luego, se presenta la metodología articulada en dos momentos: un acercamiento a la representación del espacio a través de un análisis de contenido cualitativo de una publicación oficial de la municipalidad; y una aproximación a las prácticas sociales del espacio a través de observaciones semi-estructuradas. Posteriormente, se exponen las principales características de la representación del espacio analizada y una síntesis de las prácticas espaciales observadas. Para concluir, se relacionan las características de la representación de la “Supermanzana” con las prácticas espaciales en la misma, buscando poner ambas dimensiones en diálogo y tensión; atendiendo al mismo tiempo a tendencias de urbanización, embellecimiento y turistificación tanto locales como globales.
Zwischen künstlerischem und pädagogischem Selbstverständnis. Ein autosozioanalytischer Selbstversuch
Authors: Martinsich Christian
Published: October 2024

Musikpädagog*innen finden in der Schule oft wenig Raum für ihre künstlerische Seite. Im Studium besonders mit der Heranbildung eines eigenständigen künstlerischen-Ichs beschäftigt, ist dann der*die Pädagog*in gefragt: Das kann zu einem Spannungsfeld, zwischen Pädagog*in und Künstler*in-Sein, führen. Im Beitrag wird die Methode der Autosozioanalyse angewendet, um persönlich erlebte Situationen des Autors retrospektiv und in Bezug zu ihrer gesellschaftlichen Bedingtheit reflektieren zu können. Deutlich wird, dass die Bedingung der Möglichkeit der musikalischen Förderung von Kindern und Jugendlichen eine Entwicklung von Lehrpersonen hin zu einem pädagogisch-künstlerischen Selbstverständnis ist.
O espraiamento de você em contextos sintáticos de complementação e adjunção no alto sertão alagoano
Authors: Vitório Elyne Giselle de Santana Lima Aguiar , Santos Pedro Henrique Sousa dos
Published: October 2024

Nos estudos sociolinguísticos, a segunda pessoa do singular (2PS) apresenta uma vasta descrição na posição de sujeito. Entretanto, na posição de complemento e adjunto, os estudos são escassos, o que mostra a importância de novas investigações acerca do espraiamento das formas do paradigma “você” em tal posição, em contraposição ao nulo e aos clíticos. Com isso, esta pesquisa, amparada no aporte teórico-metodológico da Sociolinguística Variacionista, objetivou analisar a variação desses pronomes em uma amostra de 96 informantes coletada pelo projeto LUSA (A Língua Usada no Sertão Alagoano), controlando as variáveis sociais sexo/gênero, faixa etária e escolaridade, bem como as variáveis linguísticas relação gramatical, tipo de núcleo, paralelismo formal e semântico e tipo de referente. Os dados foram analisados quantitativamente no programa RStudio com o uso de ferramentas para a criação de gráficos, de um modelo de regressão multinomial e de uma árvore de inferências condicionais. Como resultado, observou-se a baixa presença, na região do alto Sertão, do paradigma “você” e a maior utilização da variante nula, o que não foi observado em nenhuma das pesquisas analisadas, com essa variação sendo condicionada pelas variáveis relação gramatical, tipo de referente e faixa etária. Assim, esses resultados contribuem para uma nova perspectiva acerca do fenômeno, mostrando uma possível diferença regional na variação da 2PS em posição de não sujeito na região sertaneja de Alagoas.

Tarig Transform Analysis of Undamped Mechanical Oscillating System Subjected To a Periodic Force
Authors: N.O ONUOHA
Published: October 2024

Theoretical analysis of undamped mechanical oscillating system subjected to periodic force is discussed in this paper using Tarig transform technique. We first applied Tarig transform to elementary first and second order ordinary differential equations to illustrate the approach. Thereafter, it was used to solve the undamped mechanical system equations; system subjected to periodic force and forced free system. Tarig solutions obtained are bounded and oscillatory solutions in the time variable, t . It was observed that periodic force (external force) reduces the rate at which a mechanical system oscillates. Hence, the force reduces the amplitude of oscillation of the mechanical oscillating system. Keywords: Tarig transform, Oscillating systems, undamped mechanical system, periodic force, Amplitude of oscillation, bounded solution, Differential equations

Authors: Kayode Jimoh AbdulAzeez
Published: October 2024

A new zero-stable two-step hybrid block method for solving third order initial value problems of ordinary differential equations directly is derived and proposed. In the derivation of the method, the assumed power series solution is interpolated at the initial and the hybrid points while its third ordered derivative is collocated at all the nodal and off-step points in the interval of consideration. The relevant properties of the method were examined and the method was found to be zero-stable, consistent and convergent. A comparison of the results by the method with the exact solutions and other results in literature shows that the method is accurate, simple and effective in solving the class of problems considered.

Investigating the atomic structures and electronic properties of WS2 thin films with sulfur vacancies via a neural network potential-aided first-principles study
Authors: Otsuka Ryuji , Shimizu Koji , Wakabayashi Hitoshi , Watanabe Satoshi
Published: October 2024

Transition metal dichalcogenides are promising materials for high-performance electronics, whereas the impact of defects on their electronic properties remains elusive. Here, we employ neural network potentials (NNPs) constructed from density functional theory (DFT) data to investigate defect-laden WS2 thin films. Molecular dynamics simulations reveal that at low defect concentrations (S/W ratio of 1.9), single sulfur vacancies are predominant. Conversely, at high defect concentrations (S/W ratio of 1.7), complex defects with short lifetimes appear. Additionally, DFT results indicate that the band gap persists at S/W = 1.9 but disappears at 1.7, aligning with observed device degradation at high defect concentrations.

Em atletas de alta performance, principalmente aqueles que praticam esportes de resistência com treinos de alta intensidade e longa duração, o coração sofre a probabilidade de arritmias ventriculares e atriais. Sabese que esses atletas possuem aumento do diâmetro e do volume indexado do átrio esquerdo (AE), entretanto, os efeitos dessas alterações na função atrial ainda não estão totalmente esclarecidos. A mecânica do AE envolve três funções: 1) função de reservatório, caracterizada pelo armazenamento do retorno venoso proveniente das veias pulmonares, que ocorre durante a sístole ventricular; 2) função de conduto, representada pelo enchimento passivo do ventrículo esquerdo (VE); e 3) função contrátil, expressa pela contração atrial. Recentemente, a análise da função do átrio por meio da deformação miocárdica, utilizando a técnica de speckle tracking, vem sendo utilizada cada vez mais e contribuindo para a compreensão da mecânica atrial. Atletas de resistência apresentam maiores adaptações atriais, como um maior diâmetro e volume do AE, provavelmente provocado pelo aumento repetitivo e sustentado da pré-carga de esforço, a fim de atender a demanda do débito cardíaco durante o treinamento de alta intensidade. Além do aumento do AE, estudos têm demonstrado redução da função de reservatório em atletas, quando comparados ao grupo controle. Deste modo, acreditamos que estes achados podem contribuir para melhor estratificação de pacientes com maior risco de desenvolver fibrilação atrial (FA). Por fim, entendemos que são necessários mais estudos para um melhor entendimento sobre a relação dose-resposta entre exercício e função atrial esquerda.

Published: October 2024

The learning method of the Prophet Muhammad is full of pedagogical content so it has become a prototype learning method for educators and has provided many positive learning outcomes. This article aims to analyze the amṡāl method in the authentic Bukhāri hadith number 573 regarding the amṡāl of the Prophet Muhammad and its implications for Islamic religious education, especially on the theme of monotheism/belief. The author uses a qualitative descriptive approach through literature study to examine theories of research variables from relevant hadith books, books, and journals. The author also uses the takhrij method in terms of both matan and sanad hadith with the help of jawami' al-kalim and al-maktabah al-syamilah as well as a hadith dictionary. Based on takhrij, this hadith is classified as an authentic hadith li zatihi. This hadith includes hadith that is maqbul, ma'mul, and muhkam so it is worthy of being a strong proof to be conveyed to the people. The mass expressed can be categorized as maṡal al al-musarrahah or al-qiyasiyah. The amṡāl method is effectively applied as a PAI learning method which contains monotheism material. The amṡāl method is considered capable of realizing education that relies on three main human instruments, namely the heart, mind, and senses. The proverb method is student-centered, where teachers need to accommodate the needs of their students. Ru'yatullah studies provide opportunities for students to develop their theological understanding to create a comprehensive awareness.

In this research, a watermelon postharvest and process engineering system was designed, developed, and assessed its performance. The watermelon postharvest engineering system integrates a mechanised cleaning and a robotic sizing system with a capacity of 100-120 fruits/h, targeting fresh watermelon for the export market. The cleaning efficiency was 90%, whereas the sizing efficiency was 100%. Adding 250 ppm sodium dichloroisocyanurate in water during the cleaning process can extend the storage life of watermelon up to five weeks. The application of vacuum suction cups in the robotic sizing system did not cause any mechanical injury to the watermelon. The integration of mechanised cleaning (inclusive sanitation treatment) and robotic sizing systems is novel in Malaysia's watermelon postharvest engineering system. The system maintains good quality, reduces losses, and expands the market potential of watermelon. On the other hand, the watermelon mechanised puree processing system consists of a watermelon peeler, extractor, pasteuriser, and targeted watermelon puree production for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Watermelon peeler, extractor and pasteuriser have a capacity of approximately 1 peeled watermelon/min, 430 kg watermelon puree/h, and up to 90 L watermelon puree/batch, respectively. The mechanised watermelon puree processing system showed the potential to diversify local agricultural products. The developed system can benefit fresh watermelon exporters and puree producers regarding market expansion.
ENHANCED MULTIMODAL LEARNING FOR DISASTER DETECTION: A DEEP ATTENTION-BASED APPROACH TO SOCIAL MEDIA ANALYSIS
Authors: ZIAUDDIN Dr. KHAJA , SAINIKITHA KODITHYALA
Published: October 2024

Twitter and other microblogging sites are becoming essential for sharing important information, particularly during natural and man-made catastrophes. Multimedia elements including photographs and/or videos are often posted by individuals to provide critical information about events like fatalities, infrastructure damage, and the immediate needs of those impacted. Humanitarian organisations may prepare an appropriate reaction in a timely way with the use of such information. It is a laborious effort to detect disaster-related information from a large number of postings, thus an autonomous system that can separate out actionable from non-actionable disaster-related information from social media is required. Even though a number of studies have demonstrated the value of combining text and image contents for disaster identification, the majority of earlier research concentrated solely on textual analysis and/or used conventional recurrent neural networks (RNNs) or convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which may cause performance issues with lengthy input sequences. In order to categorise tweets, this research provides a multimodal disaster detection system that synergistically uses textual and visual data by combining the influential word aspects with the visual features. To be more precise, we use a bidirectional long-term memory (BiLSTM) network with attention mechanism to extract textual data and a pretrained convolutional neural network (like ResNet50) to extract visual features. Next, we use a feature fusion technique to combine textual and visual information, and then we use the softmax classifier. The assessments show that the suggested multimodal system improves performance over the current baselines, which include both unimodal and multimodal models, by achieving gains in performance of around 1% and 7%, respectively.

The sugar industry faces the dual challenge of an aging workforce and the pressing need to digitize operations for enhanced efficiency. The traditional knowledge, accrued over decades, risks being lost if not effectively transferred to the newer generations, while the industry's modernization beckons a digital overhaul. Harnessing Large Language Models (LLMs) like Llama3, Gemma2, and GPT-4o for Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) emerges as a viable solution to address these challenges. By encapsulating the veteran expertise in a digital framework and making it readily accessible through RAG, a seamless knowledge transfer is facilitated. Concurrently, the digitalization of operational processes is accelerated, fostering a culture of data-driven decision-making and innovation. The application of LLM for RAG not only ensures the preservation and accessibility of critical industry knowledge but also positions the sugar industry on a modernization trajectory, promising enhanced operational efficiencies, sustainability, and a competitive edge in the evolving market landscape.

Published: October 2024

This study attempted analytical estimation of the welding domain for underwater explosive cladding of aluminium (Al 5052) - stainless steel (SS304). A welding window, an analytical estimation, can ascertain whether the interface is wavy-like or otherwise. The welding window's lower, upper, left, and right boundaries were constructed using empirical relations suggested by peer researchers. The soundness of the dissimilar clads relates to their closeness to the lower boundary. The interface microstructure is in concurrence with the analytical outcomes.
POWER COMPARISON OF TESTS FOR NORMALITY AND RECOMMENDED TEST ORDERS FOR MANUFACTURING ORGANIZATIONS
Authors: LaFromboise Lucius
Published: October 2024

Manufacturing organizations are increasingly concerned with statistical analysis as a tool for understanding and improving processes. With the release of a new statistical package, QESuite, designed for manufacturers, it is important to directly compare the included normality tests to guide the standards of manufacturing organizations. A common metric of the usefulness of a normality test is its power, the test’s ability to identify data that do not follow the normal distribution correctly. Through Monte Carlo simulation, the power of 6 normality tests: Anderson-Darling, Jarque-Bera, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Lilliefors (corrected KS), Shapiro-Wilk (Royston), and Ryan-Joiner; was evaluated at multiple sample sizes with different original distributions. The sample size of the data being tested greatly impacted the power of all the tests studied. As the sample size increased, the power of almost all the tests studied approached 1.0 (100%). The underlying distribution also showed an effect, with the power being higher for all tests when evaluating asymmetrical distributions than symmetric distributions. When the power was averaged across all distributions and the average ranks of each test across sample sizes were calculated, the following general order of highest power to lowest is recommended: Shapiro-Wilk (Royston), Lilliefors, Ryan-Joiner, Anderson-Darling, Jarque-Bera, Kolmogorov-Smirnov.

Published: October 2024

Introduction: Preterm birth is defined as babies born before 37 completed weeks of pregnancy or fewer than 259 days since the first day of a woman’s last menstrual period. Globally, approximately 15 million children are born pre-term, and the WHO has estimated a global pre-term prevalence of between 4-16%. In 2020 it is estimated that more than one million neonates died due to complications of preterm birth and millions more survived with lifelong disabilities. Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and Southern Asia account for 60% of pre-term birth prevalence, and most of these countries lack reliable data on the burden and predictors of pre-term birth. This study investigated the prevalence and predictors of pre-term birth at Migori County Referral Hospital (MCRH) in Kenya. Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in MCRH where a systematic sampling method was used to enrol 692 mothers who delivered at the hospital between April and June 2023. Hospital records were reviewed, and an online semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect maternal, fetal and institutional characteristics. The prevalence of preterm births was calculated, and binary logistic regression was performed to identify the predictors of preterm births. 95% CI and P-values <0.05 were used to identify significant predictors of preterm birth. Results: The prevalence of preterm births was found to be 15.4%. Previous history of preterm births (AOR 2.5, 1.2-5.4), and syphilis in pregnancy (AOR 6.3, 1.5-2.7) were significant predictors of preterm births. Attending ANC was found to be a protective factor against preterm births by 87% (AOR = 0.13 (0.02– 0.71), p = 0.018). Conclusion: The prevalence of preterm births at MCRH was high, underscoring the significance of addressing this issue within the community.  History of preterm births and syphilis were predictors of preterm births. ANC attendance was identified as a protective factor against preterm birth
Implementation of Asymmetrical Multi-Level Inverter Configuration using Extended Hexagonal Switched Cell in MATLAB/Simulink
Authors: Chandramouli Adupa , Sivachidambaranathan V.
Published: October 2024

This paper critically examines a novel extended HSC-based configuration capable of supporting both symmetrical and asymmetrical operations. The quest for optimizing classical multilevel inverter (MLI) topologies to minimize switch count has led to the emergence of various configurations known as reduced switch count (RSC) MLIs. Among these, the simplest are the T-type configurations. However, due to their limited asymmetric capability and absence of redundancies, researchers have endeavored to devise novel configurations employing the highly modular H-bridge structure. One such configuration is the hexagonal switched cell (HSC), comprising six switches interconnected in an anti-parallel manner using two unidirectional switches. Each HSC can independently function as a seven-level inverter with binary voltage ratios. Inspired by the HSC, several novel symmetrical and asymmetrical topologies have been developed to extend its capabilities to higher levels. The primary objective of this paper is to scrutinize the extended asymmetrical multilevel inverter topology based on HSC and implement it utilizing low-frequency-based PWM. To validate the operation of the proposed configuration with PWM, simulations are conducted in the Simulink environment using MATLAB.
Analysis of the Influence of PV Integration on an Unbalanced Grid Voltage Deviation
Authors: Abayomi A. , Nnachi Agha F.
Published: October 2024

With the increasing utilization of renewable energy sources (RES) to mitigate climate pollution from fossil fuel-based energy production, it is imperative to investigate the influence of integrated Photovoltaic (PV) generation on distribution grid voltage levels and power losses. Voltage stability in dispersed systems with high PV penetration is a major challenge due to solar power dynamic generation. Voltage stability is an important parameter for measuring the level of penetration of PV systems on distribution grids in terms of load capacity. As a result, this study provides analytical voltage stability, which is achieved using a 4.16 kV voltage level on a modified IEEE 13 bus radial distribution system. The network was modeled, simulated, and analyzed based on a snapshot power flow solution. Four simulation scenarios were tested for PV penetration levels on the grid. The collected outcomes demonstrated that the system voltage profile and losses remained within the voltage limit established by international standards with PV penetration. As a result, PV penetration levels greater than 40% of the loading capacity resulted in voltage increases that exceeded the prescribed limits, reverse power flow, and an increase in grid power loss.
