Földrajzi Árujelzők Magyarországon – Mi várható a magyar cseresznye ágazatban? : Geographical Indications in Hungary –what can be expected in the Hungarian cherry industry?
Authors: Török Áron , Koleticsné Lükő Annaróza , Gál Péter
Published: December 2021

Az Európai Unió eredetvédelmi szabályozása lehetővé teszi egyes mezőgazdasági termékek és élelmiszerek előállítási hely szerinti megkülönböztetését, ha azok minősége nagymértékben az adott helyszínhez kötődik. Európában számos ilyen élelmiszer elnevezése élvez nemzetközi védelmet, Magyarországról jelenleg mindösszesen tizennégy. Azonban számuk a közeljövőben várhatóan jelentősen emelkedni fog, köztük két cseresznyével. A nagykörűi és szomolyai cseresznyetermelők helyzetét és az eredetvédelmi rendszerhez való csatlakozásuk várható hatásait vizsgálva megállapítható, hogy a földrajzi árujelzők hozzájárulhatnak ahhoz, hogy a gyümölcsöt nagyobb mennyiségben, magasabb áron lehessen értékesíteni, s a folyamat során létrejövő hasznok elsősorban az előállítás helyszínén realizálódjanak. Mindezek eléréséhez ugyanakkor az eredetvédelemben rejlő lehetőségek maximális kihasználása, továbbá széleskörű összefogás és egységes fellépés szükséges a földrajzi árujelzők érintettjei részéről. The geographical indication system of the European Union allows to differentiate agricultural and food products based on their origin, in case their quality is highly linked to the place of production. In Europe many such products with protected denominations benefit from the international production, from Hungary currently only fourteen products are protected, however their number is about to significantly rise in the near future, including two cherry producing sites. Based on the status and the expectations of the cherry producers in Nagykörű and Szomolya it is visible that geographical indications can contribute to sell these fruits in higher quantity for a higher price while the main beneficiaries would be local actors. However, in order to meet these expectations, all the potential advantages embedded in geographical indications have to be taken, and a wide cooperation and coordinated actions on behalf of the stakeholders is required.
Innováció és képességhármas : Iparpolitika és egyetemi-vállalati együttműködés

Published: December 2021

Jelen összefoglaló elméleti alapját a képességhármas adja: az elmélet szerint a gyors növekedéshez három terület összehangolt szervezeti változása szükséges: „az üzleti modell a termelési képességek és a készségformálás. A három terület nem alkotórésze a növekedésnek, sem külön-külön, sem együttesen, hanem egyetlen fejlesztési folyamat egymástól függő alrészei.” (BEST 2019) „Olyan szakpolitikák, amelyek egymástól elkülönülten, önállóan célozzák a termelési képesség, a vállalatok növekedésének és készségformálásának előmozdítását, nem lesznek sikeresek” (BEST 2019)
Hardness and Texture of Electrolytic Copper Processed by ECAP at Ambient and Warm Temperature
Authors: Yamada Magalhães Hiron Akira , Souza Talita Gama , Cardoso Rodrigo Felix de Araujo , Silva Bruno Rangel , Brandão Luiz Paulo
Published: December 2021

Among several severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods, the Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) process is one of the most popular. This process's main characteristic is producing materials with ultra-fine or nanometric grains. Due to these microstructural changes, it is possible to improve mechanical properties such as strength and ductility. In this perspective, the aim of the present work was to evaluate the variations of the mechanical hardness property associated with microstructural and textural changes of pure copper as a function of its processing by SPD via ECAP. For this, the material was submitted to four passes through routes A (the sample is repetitively pressed without any rotation between each pass) and Bc (the sample is rotated in the same sense by 90° between each pass) at cold and warm temperatures. Through the obtained result, it was verified that the ambient temperature of the Bc route was the one that promoted greater homogeneity in the microstructure and weakening of the texture after the fourth pass. On the other hand, warm processing of copper by ECAP promoted a softening of the samples and a homogeneous distribution of hardness in both routes.

Authors: Mendes Gabriel Angelo Santos , Scari Alexandre
Published: December 2021

The consumption of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has been increasing every year, as well as its recycling process as the applications of recycled PET are diversified. However, the recycling companies are not able to recycle 100% of PET because the particles with low granulometry (refuse) are not utilized because they stick to the extruder screw and are discarded. This study presents the structural dimensioning of a proposal of an equipment to sinter this refuse in some predetermined geometries, in order to achieve possible commercial applications. This structural dimensioning was done with finite element analysis open-source software Salome Meca. Some structural modifications required to achieve the design requirements are presented. Yet, the hydraulic system to operate the compression was also dimensioned.

Published: December 2021

The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of treatment strategies and methods as well as a practical decision support, based on the current version of the guideline on memory rehabilitation [55] and the authorsʼ views. We show that the choice of a method for efficient neuropsychological treatment depends on the type and severity of the memory disorder as well as on the previous therapy experience of the affected person and the defined therapy goal: e.g., what it means to work with implicit »errorless learning« methods; which form of external memory aids can be used with which patients; that methods for improving memory performance are available for persons with moderate to mild memory disorders; and that PC therapy is also likely to help younger and more mildly affected persons. The aim is also to provide a broad overview of current studies on memory rehabilitation, some with very promising results. However, many questions remain unanswered to date, some of which have been highlighted in this paper with the aim of stimulating future research to enable those affected by memory impairment to achieve the best possible rehabilitation and the greatest possible independence

Authors: Darwis Mochammad
Published: December 2021

The occurrence of various disruptions and damage to equipment and electrical installations begins with a significant temperature increase in it. The temperature increasing in electrical equipment and installations will also increase the consumption of energy or power required. Previous technology used a temperature sensor and current sensor which had to be installed in the environment to be monitored. The temperature measurement system without touching the surface which is measured using infrared rays is a new breakthrough that really helps maintenance and repair. Also with the existence of a temperature sensor arranged in an array, it can map the existing temperature so that it can provide a better picture for analyzing the symptoms that  occur, compared  to using a temperature sensor that measures one point only. A temperature imaging camera is currently very expensive, making procurement a bit difficult for laboratories dealing with electrical equipment and installations. In this research, we will try to make an inexpensive temperature imaging camera using the MLX90640 sensor and the ESP32 microcontroller. Bicubic interpolation is used to  enlarge the resulting image obtained  by the MLX90640 sensor. The MATLAB program is   used to simulate and create an overall temperature imaging camera system. Tested and compared with two other interpolation methods to ensure that bicubic interpolation can produce better magnified images.

Published: December 2021

Capacity and queue management are currently used in financial institutions. With decreasing bank units due to internet services, research in this field has focused on improving to utilize their employees efficiently and achieve service excellence. In developing countries like Brazil, the customer has become more bank-accounted due to government and labor requirements, such as the wage credit became mandatory in the wage account. The paper's aim is motivated by a real-life case study to simulate discrete events to improve queue management at a Brazilian bank branch with the Arena software simulation environment. The simulation model was designed, tested, and applied considering the Discrete Event Simulation (DES) replication for queuing strategies on a real-world banking scenario. The arrival and service times were collected from 115 customers in Ferraz de Vasconcelos/SP city. It was performed in version 15.10 (2018) of the Arena software, with processor Intel core i3 CPU dual-core 3.07 GHz and 8GB of RAM. The results indicate that the bank agency should consider providing 9 to 11 operators to attend customers considering the arrival and service rate.

On log-bimodal alpha-power distributions with application to nickel contents and erosion data
Authors: Salinas Hugo S. , Martínez-Flórez Guillermo , Lemonte Artur J. , Bolfarine Heleno
Published: December 2021

In this paper, we present a new parametric class of distributions based on the log-alpha-power distribution, which contains the well-known log-normal distribution as a special case. This new family is useful to deal with unimodal as well as bimodal data with asymmetry and kurtosis coefficients ranging far from that expected based on the log-normal distribution. The usual approach is considered to perform inferences, and the traditional maximum likelihood method is employed to estimate the unknown parameters. Monte Carlo simulation results indicate that the maximum likelihood approach is quite effective to estimate the model parameters. We also derive the observed and expected Fisher information matrices. As a byproduct of such study, it is shown that the Fisher information matrix is nonsingular throughout the sample space. Empirical applications of the proposed family of distributions to real data are provided for illustrative purposes.
On the Fear of the Void and Killing Babies in Pascal, Nabokov, and Game of Thrones
Authors: Bronowski Ada
Published: December 2021

The article places Game of Thrones within a tradition of pessimism, reaching back to Blaise Pascal and coloured by Nabokov’s vision of birth as a separation between two voids. This lineage provides a philosophical thread to analyse the motivations and actions of the protagonists of Game of Thrones, in particular their relation to child-killing. The void looms large in the world of Game of Thrones as the unchartered space beyond the wall. It is the awareness of the reality of this void and the horrors it harbours which is shown to propel those who have it, to go to the greatest lengths to preserve the life of a child.
From Episodic Novel to Serial TV:The Handmaid’s Tale, Adaptation and Politics
Authors: Gerrits Jeroen
Published: December 2021

This article analyzes the changes inThe Handmaid’s Tale’s moral and political outlook as it tracks different forms of complexity in the novel, the film, and the TV series. While the sense of female empowerment increases with each adaptation of this tale of forced sexual servitude in fictional theocratic state of Gilead, the essay argues that Hulu’s TV series (created by Bruce Miller, 2017–) develops an intriguing interaction between the interiority of Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel and the exteriority emphasized in Volker Schlöndorff’s 1990 film. In so doing, the TV series Escher-twists across related binaries between activity/passivity and personal/political actions as well. By expanding, displacing, and creatively intersecting storylines which the novel cut short, the series weaves an intricate perspectival web that invites the viewer to participate in its mind games.

Authors: McCabe S. , McHugh N. , O’Connell N.E. , Prendiville R.
Published: December 2021

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of genetic merit of the national Irish maternal index and genotype (i.e. beef vs. beef × dairy [BDX]) of beef cows and subsequent performance of their progeny. With the exception that high genetic merit cows produced 0.57 kg more milk and tended to have 0.04 of a lower body condition score (BCS), no significant differences were observed between cows of diverse genetic merit. Differences between contrasting cow genotype were apparent. Beef cows were 50 kg heavier and had a BCS 0.27 greater than BDX cows. The BDX cows produced 1.67 kg more milk and had a greater 24-d submission rate than beef cows. Calves generated from BDX cows were 19 kg heavier at weaning and were worth €51 more than progeny generated from beef cows. Beef cow progeny, however, had 0.77 of a greater conformation score at slaughter than BDX. While differences were observed across cows of different replacement strategies, results from the current study showed that genetic selection for national maternal index had no effect on the overall performance of suckler cows in a pasture-based spring-calving system.

Oral Cancer is considered as one of the common problems of global public health and despite the progress in advanced research, the mortality rate has not been improved significantly in the last few decades. A natural product such as Thymoquinone, black seeds (TQ), is an active component of Nigella sativa or black cumin elicits cytotoxic effects on various oral cancer cell lines. A wide range of studies have been concluded that the TQ has two different anti-neoplastic actions that might trigger apoptosis, have the capacity to induce cell death in oral cancer cells. In the presence of TQ, oral cancer has been proved experimentally shows the decelerating trend of the growth. This article models the decelerating of the oral cancer growth by using a linear stochastic differential equation (SDEs). The Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method used to estimate model parameters for 100, 500,1000 and 2000 simulations. The best set of kinetic parameters are identified. It can be seen that for 1000 simulations of the sample paths, the model fitted well the data, hence indicating a good fit. However, if the number of simulation is incerasing up to 2000, the parameter obtained shows instablity of the solution. This is due to the high numbers of noise generated, may influenced the stability of the solution.

Published: December 2021

Road traffic fatality is a burden towards low- and middle-income countries including Malaysia. Seeing that Selangor has the highest number of road traffic fatalities in Malaysia for the year 2019, therefore the state is selected as a case study. The aim of the article is 1) to understand the road traffic crash pattern and road traffic fatality pattern in Selangor 2) to determine the ability of 16 road traffic features in classifying road traffic fatality occurrence. The preliminary data screening shows that road traffic crash patterns and road traffic fatality patterns in Selangor have many similarities. However, both of them also have few dissimilarities such as crash time of occurrence, day of occurrence, number of vehicles involved in a crash, and type of vehicle first hit for the crash. Supervised machine learning algorithm in Orange data mining software was considered in this analysis. The analysed algorithms among others are neural network, random forest, decision tree, logistic regression, naïve Bayes, and support vector machine. Neural network was seen as the best algorithm to classify road traffic fatality occurrence with 97.0% classification accuracy outperform other algorithms. The result of the article can be used by the relevant traffic stakeholders to execute safety intervention in a more focused manner in Selangor to reduce the number of road traffic fatalities.
The Adoption of International Arbitration as the Preferred ADR Process in the Resolution of International Intellectual Property Disputes
Authors: Lewis David
Published: December 2021

This article, which is intended for arbitration practitioners, demonstrates that international arbitration as a subset of the field of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) offers a useful toolkit for the expeditious resolution of international intellectual property law disputes. The article demonstrates how the theory and practice of international arbitration is particularly well poised to address some of the specific considerations and requirements of paramount concern to the international intellectual property lawyers and their clients. The article will explain how the inherent features of the international arbitration legal landscape combine to indicate that it should be considered as the preferred method of ADR and explain how each of these features can provide both time and cost efficiencies. The article will identify the legal reasoning behind the benefits inherent to choosing international arbitration and will also address those circumstances when international arbitration may be precluded or otherwise considered unsuitable for intellectual property matters. The article examines several distinct benefits that international arbitration uniquely offers to international intellectual property law users and highlights some areas of the field that require additional caution.
The Universal Right to File Petitions as a Contemporary Challenge for Legal Studies
Authors: Małecka-Łyszczek Magdalena , Małysa-Sulińska Katarzyna
Published: December 2021

The universality of the right to petition, in terms of both the broad specification of its subject matter and the group of entities entitled to petition, as well as the specification of the accessible formal requirements for filing petitions, is a challenge at the level of both lawmaking and applying the law. The need arises not only to ensure that an extensive group of entities has the opportunity to file a petition, but also to provide a guarantee that the petition will be processed and considered properly. The subject matter of this article is the analysis of the Polish legal regulations on this, as well as a review of the established practices of filing petitions with the Sejm and the Senate, as well as their comparison with the solutions applied in other countries. The findings indicate that this is a tool of a civil society commonly used in the European Union Member States. It should also be noted that the Polish solutions, as well as the practice of their application, are seen to be particularly targeted at increasing social activity and enabling the use of the potential that is inherent in the citizens, groups of citizens and all forms in which they can interact with each other.
The Role of Fiscal Expenditure Rules in Maintaining the Financial Stability of the State
Authors: Lotko Ewa
Published: December 2021

One of the main challenges which legal science faces nowadays is the creation of legal mechanisms guaranteeing sound public finance. The aim of this article is to assess the role of national fiscal rules in maintaining financial stability. Firstly, to fulfil this aim, the role of fiscal rules and their efficiency was analysed. Next, based on the commonly used tool assessing the quality of national fiscal rules – the Fiscal Rule Index – the quality of expenditure rules in the EU countries was analysed in order to evaluate the Polish stabilising expenditure rule and the escape clause of its application. Therefore, the following research question is to be answered: whether in the face of an unstable financial situation of the state connected with an increasing deficit, deviation from the stabilising expenditure rule should be considered as being right. Research methods based on non-reactive research, i.e., analysis of professional literature, legal acts, and statistical data published by the European Commission, were used in this article. Due to this analysis, it was indicated that expenditure rules are regarded as one of the most effective tools to manage public funds, and therefore any derogations from the application of these rules should be evaluated negatively.

Oder existieren Parallelen zu den ostasiatischen Nachbarländern? Gibt es begründete Zweifel am Narrativ eines „chinesischen Wirtschaftswunders“?
Die ganzheitliche Bewertung von Zeitmanagementmaßnahmen durch Verknüpfung "weicher" und "harter" Kennzahlen
Authors: Mischer Melanie , Kirsch Tim Lukas , Günther Thomas
Published: December 2021

Zeitdruck führt als mitarbeiterbelastende Arbeitsanforderung zu Stress, Erschöpfung und erhöhten Ausfallzeiten. Zeitmanagementmaßnahmen können dieser Entwicklung entgegenwirken. Um deren monetäre Auswirkungen auf das Unternehmen ganzheitlich beurteilen zu können, ist eine Bewertung sowohl anhand von harten als auch anhand von weichen Kennzahlen notwendig. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt einen solchen Bewertungsansatz vor und zeigt die Umsetzung anhand eines Praxisbeispiels aus einem Pilotunternehmen.

Una aproximación a LABoral. Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial (2007-2011) desde la teoría y la praxis de José Luis Brea
Authors: Vega Manrique Miguel
Published: December 2021

La hipótesis de la que partimos es que ciertas tesis formuladas por José Luis Brea sobre el estatuto de las prácticas artísticas en la era del mundo-Internet, acompañadas de su labor artística y curatorial en la red, podrían verse continuadas y ampliadas con la puesta en marcha y consolidación de LABoral. Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial de Gijón. Creemos que el programa del centro asturiano, dedicado íntegramente al arte, la ciencia, la tecnología y la innovación, materializa una parte significativa de las concepciones que sostenía Brea para un mundo inmerso en la digitalización de los procesos de producción. En el presente artículo intentaremos poner de manifiesto la transición del net art a la contemporaneidad de las prácticas artísticas; la posible influencia de Brea en dicho proyecto institucional, que fragua su primera directora Rosina Gómez-Baeza; y la conexión existente y apenas comentada entre ambos actores del mundo del arte en el estado español.
LA LÚDICA COMO REMEDIO PARA LA ENFERMEDAD CONSUMISTA: UNA MIRADA DE LOS JUEGOS OLÍMPICOS
Authors: Guarnizo Carballo Nicolás
Published: December 2021

Este articulo de reflexión refleja el consumo incesante de la sociedad frente al materialismo, generando una felicidad efímera que conlleva a una satisfacción ilusoria, por tal motivo, se reflexiona desde la lúdica y los Juegos Olímpicos, como se redirecciona hacia un consumo subjetivo y experiencial, este tipo de pensamiento debe ser enfocado a partir de las relaciones interpersonales que se generan en el interior de los contextos culturales a partir de contenidos lúdico-deportivos. La propuesta de este trabajo se da desde escenarios en los que la lúdica es una estrategia que ofrece al sujeto posibilidades de potencializar las relaciones interpersonales, para hilar así, esa relación entre el consumismo y la dimensión lúdica.

La pandemia del covid-19 ha vuelto a situar en la palestra pública las carencias en materia de enterramiento y servicios funerarios que tienen los y las musulmanas en España, especialmente en grandes urbes como Madrid, que siguen sin contar con un espacio funerario acorde con sus prescripciones religiosas, tal y como garantiza el derecho fundamental de libertad religiosa y de culto. Para abordar esta problemática, en el presente artículo se analizan las reivindicaciones realizadas por las comunidades musulmanas en el marco de los derechos de ciudadanía y el derecho a la ciudad, atendiendo principalmente a las prácticas y discursos de los distintos actores implicados.
Modified Presplit Blast Design and its Implementation to Control Near Field Blast Vibrations
Authors: Rasagna D.L.S. , Reddy K.S.N. , Singh Sanjay , Das Sudip
Published: December 2021

The development of urban infrastructure projects like metro rail projects in the major cities in India is one of the challenging tasks due to several site construction and operating constraints. These rapid transit systems (RTS) are conceived to minimise traffic congestion by providing commuters with fast and efficient transportation alternatives. One such project is the Phase-II of the ongoing Bangalore Underground Metrorail Project. The design and construction of the metro rail project require sound engineering judgment and field experience on envisaged strata conditions along the proposed route alignment.
The important factors that govern the excavation cycle depend on Rock mass material properties, efficient blast design and construction performance. All these considerations needs to be evaluated for achieving safe, cost-effective excavation design layouts. Proper blast design and safe blasting operations play a key role in achieving good fragmentation, minimising over break and equipment downtime. Site-specific innovative methods on controlled blasting techniques are being experimented with and demonstrated to minimise the ground vibrations. The major challenge lies with the design of efficient and smooth wall blasting techniques to safeguard the old heritage buildings and other subsurface structures and utilities.

Aims. To assess the use of digital photography in dentistry and its relation with the professional experience of the dental practitioners in Romania.

Methods. An anonymous questionnaire including eight questions was distributed online to collect information on the use of dental photography.

Results. 84.84% of the respondents were using a photographic equipment in their clinical practice. Regarding the type of photographic equipment used, 51.79% of the participants indicated DSLR cameras, 44.05% smartphones, 2.38% compact cameras and 1.78% other devices for taking clinical images. There was a significant association (p<0.05) between the experience of the practitioners and the use of dental photography, type of equipment and protocol used.

Conclusions. Respondents with more than 10 years of experience were more likely to use digital photography in their practice than those with less experience. Most of the digital photography users with more than 10 years of experience were taking images with a DSLR Camera (65.52%) followed by 31.04% smartphone users. Conversely, 56.42% of the clinical photography users with less than 5 years of experience mainly preferred a smartphone device and 41.02% a DSLR Camera.

Authors: Sičiūnienė Viktorija
Published: December 2021

The article observes the results of the questionnaire of 1923 tenth-formers and their mathematics teachers. Statistical analysis of these results has been done using SPSS 13.0.The practice of curriculum differentiation in Lithuania is the subject of the observation.The research has shown that about 70 per cent of teachers more or less base their syllabus on the content of the textbook. The students’ achievements are dependent both on the teacher‘s understanding that syllabus has to be adapted to the students and ability to do that effectively. The following conclusion could be done: about 60 per cent of mathematics teachers should improve their competence in planning and developing syllabus.Organizing learning process about 80 per cent of teachers basically use reproductive teaching-learning method which requires little independent students’ activity. The institutions that prepare teachers and care about their competence should pay more attention to teachers’ qualification to apply teaching and learning methods in practice.The article has also observed the students and teachers’ understanding of principles and criteria and assessment used in schools and the quality of students’ feet-back.More attention should be paid to teachers’ competence providing faster and more efficient feet-back to students and help they need.
