Enhancing mechanical properties and crack resistance of earth-sand building materials through alfa fiber reinforcement: An experimental investigation
Authors: Sadouri Reda , Kebir Hocine , Benyoucef Mustafa
Published: February 2024

This paper investigates enhancing the mechanical properties and crack resistance of earth-sand building materials by incorporating Alfa fibers, derived from the Alfa plant. Earth-based construction materials, known for their sustainability, face challenges in mechanical performance and cracking. The study explores a composite of earth (60 wt%) and sand (40 wt%) reinforced with Alfa fibers of varying lengths and rates. Tensile strength and water absorption of the fibers were assessed, and prismatic specimens (40x40x160 mm3 ) with different cutting lengths were tested. Results inform the potential of Alfa fibers for improving earth-based material performance. Incorporating 2% wt of Alfa fibers reduced the unit weight of the composite from 1849 kg/m3 to 1632 kg/m3 , resulting in a slight material weight decrease. Compared to unreinforced adobe specimens, fibrous samples exhibited lower linear shrinkage rates and improved mechanical behavior, with 2% wt of 3 cm fibers showing optimal performance. The fibers effectively impeded crack propagation, with both length and content influencing crack attenuation. However, microstructural observation revealed poor fiber/matrix adhesion, negatively impacting adobe specimen compactness despite enhanced mechanical properties.
Beyond the written word: Investigating Post-Colonial identity through ballooned words and drawn texts in Sarnath Banerjee's graphic novels
Authors: Christabel Godwin Jerusha Angelene , C. L. Shilaja
Published: February 2024

This study delves into the unique narrative style of graphic novelist Sarnath Banerjee, focusing on his depiction of post-colonial identity in a modern, multilingual Indian context. It examines how Banerjee utilizes both phonetic elements and text to express this theme. Contrary to the perception of comics as trivial, this paper argues that they effectively blend visual and verbal elements, creating multimodal texts where various semiotic elements contribute significantly to meaning-making. Banerjee's work, characterized as rhizomatic, employs a hybrid symbolic system to navigate the complex postmodern and postcolonial landscape of India. He does so through the use of symbolic, emblematic, and indexical features, which are integral in articulating these societal tensions.

Authors: Azarraga Stefani , Cruz Isabella , Santos Samantha , Riosa Julliana , Cleofas Jerome
Published: February 2024

Comprehensive Sexual Education is often overlooked due to its sensitive nature in conservative society, resulting in higher teen pregnancy rates, unsafe sex practices, and an increase in sexually transmitted diseases. It also restricts preadolescents from learning about other equally valuable information such as sexual orientation and gender expression. This study utilized scales to measure its main four variables — Background Characteristics, Perceived Quality, Sexual Knowledge, and Attitude — and a descriptive correlational design to explore the relationships between them. The results showed that quality sexual education had positive contributions to sexual knowledge, and that students had a relatively positive sexual attitude. The study also revealed that respondents with higher religiosity had higher perceptions of comprehensiveness and the school environment in relation to their quality of JHS sex education.

Published: February 2024

Curcuma longa is used traditionally in the treatment of diabetes and diabetic complications. Aldose Reductase (ALR2) inhibition is a plausible therapeutic strategy against diabetic complications. This work was aimed at evaluating Curcuma longa phytochemicals, in silico, for their ALR2 inhibitory potentials. Thirty-nine (39) phytoconstituents of Curcuma longa were subjected to a succession of in silico screenings comprising molecular docking, drug-likeness and safety profiling to identify ALR2 inhibitor leads, validating their binding interactions with molecular dynamics simulations at 50 ns simulation time. The in silico evaluations afforded two demethoxylated curcuminoids, bisdemethoxycurcumin and demethoxycurcumin, as potential ALR2 inhibitor leads forming stable ALR2 complexes, their relative potencies correlating to their degrees of demethoxylation. The two curcuminoids are herein recommended as leads for the discovery of ALR2 inhibitory antidiabetic complication drug leads.

One of the important components of the organization of drug crime prevention is its legal framework. The subject of the author’s research is the relevant norms of substantive law – criminal and administrative. The results of the author’s research show that the above-mentioned foundations need to be improved. Despite the fact that the Criminal Code of the Republic of Armenia has been adopted since July 1, 2022, its relevant norms, according to the author, need to be updated. The author proposes to expand the legislative concept of the analogue of narcotic drugs and psychotropic (psychoactive) substances, since it does not express the main features of the analogue; to establish responsibility for the propaganda of narcotic drugs and psychotropic (psychoactive), since the criminal law establishes responsibility only for advertising these substances.; to toughen the punishment for the sale of narcotic drugs and psychotropic (psychoactive) substances to minors, since their body is weak and bears enormous damage as a result of the consumption of these substances; to establish responsibility for the illegal acquisition of a precursor at the instigation of another person for him, since the law provides for punishment for this action only in relation to narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances (psychoactive) substances, etc. Naturally, it is necessary to improve the norms defining administrative responsibility for drug-related offenses. Thus, the author considers it necessary to group these offenses in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Republic of Armenia by the type of violated public relations, to correct other shortcomings of legal regulation.

The author conducts a comprehensive analysis of judicial practice and doctrinal approaches to defining the concepts of "object" and "subject" of judicial control in the administrative proceedings of the Republic of Armenia. The article highlights the problems and ambiguities in the use of these terms by the courts of Armenia and proposes ways to clarify and unify them to ensure consistency and clarity in judicial decisions. The author identifies two main groups of approaches to distinguishing the object and subject of judicial control in relation to normative legal acts in administrative proceedings. According to the first group, the object and subject of judicial control are considered equivalent concepts, but the preference is given to the formulation "subject of judicial control." The second group of authors seeks to clearly differentiate these concepts, where the object of control is considered to be normative legal acts that are subject to court scrutiny, while the subject of control is their lawfulness in accordance with acts possessing higher legal force. In the article author proposes adopting a doctrinal approach to defining the object and subject of judicial control in administrative proceedings of Armenia, including a clear differentiation of these concepts in court decisions. The author emphasizes the importance of correct usage of terminology to ensure legal clarity and unambiguity in judicial rulings. In conclusion, the article presents well-founded conclusions and recommendations regarding the application of the terms "object" and "subject" of judicial control in administrative proceedings of Armenia, and underscores the necessity of maintaining unity and consistency in judicial practice to improve the efficiency of judicial procedures and protect the rights and interests of citizens and organizations in Armenia.

Within the framework of this article, the need to introduce and apply anti-corruption expertise in the RA legal system was discussed. The current situation in relation to the field was analyzed, as a result of which we proposed to define the anti-corruption examination as an independent type of examination at the law level, as well as to establish an authorizing norm by law, within the framework of which a sub-legislative normative legal act regulating the procedural issues of anti-corruption examination will be adopted. In addition, for the implementation of anti-corruption examination, we have proposed to create a separate specialized independent body, to define the scope of the legal acts and/or the criteria for their selection, which will be subject to anti-corruption examination. At the same time, in order to achieve the desired result, we proposed to create effective cooperation between the state body that will carry out anti-corruption expertise and the higher education institutions involved in that process.
