Published: July 2021

One of the strategic attitudes toward development, in order to increase its improvement by arrangement of comprehensive planning, by considering potency as multi sector development concept is the development of art that is taken for consideration. The development of art in Bali nowadays is closely related to the historic movement of Indonesian art, pioneering era Raden Saleh (1807-1880), Hindia Jelita era (1908-1937), and Pita Maha era (1930s). In the Pita Maha era, there occurred a combinatioan between the modern west esthetic and classical Bali esthetic that based on Hindu religion. The modern esthetic was brought to Bali by western artist R. Bonnet and W. Spiese, merging with the classical esthetic which bearing aperiod of art in Bali that is known as Seni Lukis Bali Modern (Bali Modern Art Painting) The period is also the beginning of Modern Art in Bali. Academic movement in the field of art exist in 1950 is an attitude toward renewal expansion within expression. During the orde baru government in 1966, various styles of modern art come into elaboration, moreover by the graduations of many academic artists.

The aim of these research is to study the effects of laras toward the listener emotional well-being. From the psychology of music point of view, this research attempts to understand the emo- tional well-being of the listeners. These study may be primarily cog- nitive or may consist of the frequency with which listener expe- rienced pleasant and unpleasant emotions. The samples were every- one whose have an experienced on listening the gamelan in their everyday life. Through quasi-experiment and purposive sampling, the 73 samples listened to two songs that composed in slendro nem and pelog lima’s scale and also interviewed in focus group discus- sions. The results shown that the pelog’s scale influenced more to the emotional well-being of the listeners than slendro’s scale.

Balinese gamelan music is an Indonesia traditional music which consist of pelog and selendro scales. The existence of Balinese gamelan music in Yogyakarta has an important function in its community. It marks by the significant development of it. The establishment of organization and Balinese gamelan groups indicate the devolopment. Balinese gamelan music uses by the Yogyanese, as good Balinese or native Yogyanese. Contextually, Balinese gamelan music in Yogyakarta has four functions, such as: ritual ceremonial, entertainment, esthetic presentation, and arts education. First, as a medium of a ritual ceremonial, Balinese gamelan music uses to accampany dewa yadnya, pitra yadnya, and buta yadnya. Second, Balinese gamelan music uses as an entertainment. Third, as an artistic presentation usually treated with some creativities and innovations. And the last but not least, Balinese gamelan music uses as course matrial at the Gamelan and Etnomusicology Departments at the Indonesia Institute Of The Arts at Yogyakarta.
Intercultural Balinese Painting from the Classic to the Modern
Authors: I Wayan Setem
Published: July 2021

This article examines the representation mode painting like a change parallel to the profound transformation of the technical or theoretical knowledge, and also parallel to changes in the Balinese society values due to the physical evolution and the evolution of the system of values. In fact, within one century of painting it has been like moving from the classical, traditional, standard, homogeneous, local, and collectively turned into a painting that has been varied, heterogeneous, individual, and internationally with a modern twist. These waves of change occurred in the span of time through several stages, and most striking result from cash capitalistic economy and culture, especially tourism. In pre-colonial time the painting is a narrative religious functions until the time of breath commercialism modernist touches to always make innovations or changes. From the sacred space of temples and palaces to moving objects souvenirs, hotel interiors, fash- ion and even interior and exterior car. Developments of painting through innovation should not be inter- preted as a discontinuity (rapture) or discontinuity of the local context, but on the contrary, to appreciate again the classical values (pastiche), not by road of preserving it rigidly, but the process of reinterpretation and re-contextualization.
EFFECT OF HEALTHCARE EXPENDITURE ON THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE NUMBER OF NURSES AND DOCTORS EMPLOYED
Authors: ATALAN Abdulkadir
Published: July 2021

The aim of this study is to analyze the correlation between the numbers of doctors and nurses, as well as the effect of health expenditure (HE) on the employment of doctors and nurses. The study data belong to the Turkish health system and cover the years 1975-2018. The amount of HE data was handled as the ratio of Turkey to national income (GDP). Pearson correlation test and linear regression model methods were used in this study. The doctor-nurse ratio was examined in order to see the interaction levels of the relationship between the doctor and the nurse apart from the correlation. There is a strong correlation between nurse and doctor employment, and the correlation value was calculated as 0.973 (p-value=0.001, n=44 samples). Correlation coefficients between dependent variables and independent (HE) variables were analyzed as 0.715 (p-value=0.001) for nurse employment and 0.840 (p-value=0.001) for physician employment, respectively. The amount of HE was very effective on both the number of physicians and the nurses based on the regression analysis.

Differential expression of regulator of G-protein signaling 1 in human epithelial ovarian cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: July 2021

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We performed discovery of genes associated with epithelial ovarian cancer and of the high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) subtype, using published microarray data (2, 3) to compare global gene expression profiles of normal ovary or fallopian tube with that of primary tumors from women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer or HGSC. We identified the gene encoding regulator of G-protein signaling 1, RGS1, as among the genes whose expression was most different in epithelial ovarian cancer as compared to the normal fallopian tube. RGS1 expression was significantly higher in high-grade serous ovarian tumors relative to normal fallopian tube. RGS1 expression correlated with overall survival in patients with ovarian cancer. These data indicate that expression of RGS1 is perturbed in epithelial ovarian cancers broadly and in ovarian cancers of the HGSC subtype. RGS1 may be relevant to pathways underlying ovarian cancer initiation (transformation) or progression.
New systemically measured sand mining budget for the Mekong Delta reveals rising trends and significant volume underestimations

Published: July 2021

The river beds of the Mekong Delta are some of the most intensively sand mined places in the world, however sand mining budgets are limited to rough and indirect estimates. Here, we provide a systematic, semi-physically based estimation of the Mekong Delta’s sand mining budget. We provide a quantified budget that overcomes limitations resulting from previous reliance on officially declared statistics and bathymetric surveys of short channel reaches. We apply Sentinel-1 radar imagery to monitor the distribution of sand mining activities using boat metrics-driven mining intensity maps correlated with a field-based bathymetry difference map derived from two extensive bathymetric surveys of ~100 km reaches in the Tiền River conducted in 2014 and 2017 that cover ~15% of the Mekong Delta. We then extrapolate the Tiền River findings to the broader Vietnamese Mekong Delta from 2015 to 2020 and measure a continuous increase of the extraction budget by ~25% between 2015 (38 Mm3/yr) and 2020 (47 Mm3/yr). We estimate a total sand mining budget of 254 Mm3 during the 6-year study period with an average annual rate of ~42 Mm3. Our semi-physically based annual rate differs from both official declarations provided and estimates from previous studies implying that a substantial portion of sand mining budget remains unaccounted for. Riverbed sand mining remains key threat to the Mekong Delta as it exacerbates or contributes to a multitude of other threats including dam construction effects on sedimentation, ongoing subsidence, sea level rise and recurring salt intrusion. This integrated study offers a new method that is readily implementable elsewhere to allow for extensive monitoring and quantification of sand mining activities that are vital for assessing future projections on environmental impacts.
A biobehavioural approach to understand how mindfulness-based cognitive therapy reduces dispositional negative self-bias in recurrent depression
Authors: Kirschner Hans , Kuyken Willem , Karl Anke
Published: July 2021

Negative self-bias is a detrimental vulnerability factor of recurrent depression. Here we examine the potential of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) to reduce this bias by assessing self-report and psychophysiological responses to a previously validated self-compassion exercise in individuals with recurrent depression. One group (n= 25) received eight sessions of MBCT between two assessments (2.5 – 3 months apart). The second group was an untreated control group (n = 25) tested at similar intervals.Our results indicate that, when the MBCT group engaged in the self-compassion exercise after MBCT, they showed reduced physiological arousal and enhanced parasympathetic activity whereas no changes were observed in the control group. Interestingly, self-reported state self-compassion after the exercise increased in both groups at both timepoints, but only in the MBCT group the overall levels of state and dispositional self-compassion were increased significantly. This suggests that MBCT reduces both strategic (self-report) and automatic (psychophysiological) negative self-bias.
How compliance with behavioural measures during the initial phase of a pandemic develops over time: a longitudinal COVID-19 study
Authors: Chambon Monique , Dalege Jonas , Borsboom Denny , Waldorp Lourens , van der Maas Han , van Harreveld Frenk
Published: July 2021

In this longitudinal research we adopt a complexity approach to examine temporal dynamics of variables related to compliance with behavioural measures during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dutch participants (N = 2,399) completed surveys with COVID-19-related variables five times over a period of 10 weeks (April 23th – June 30th 2020). With this data we estimated within-person COVID-19 attitude networks containing a broad set of psychological variables and their relations. These networks display variables’ predictive effects over time between measurements and contemporaneous effects during measurements. Results show 1) bidirectional effects between multiple variables relevant for compliance, forming potential feedback loops, and 2) a positive reinforcing structure between compliance, support for behavioural measures, involvement in the pandemic and vaccination intention. These results can explain why levels of these variables decreased throughout the course of the study. The reinforcing structure points towards potentially amplifying effects of interventions on these variables, and might inform processes of polarization. We conclude that adopting a complexity approach might contribute to understanding protective behaviour in the initial phase of pandemics by combining different theoretical models and modelling bidirectional effects between variables. Future research could build upon this research by studying causality with interventions and including additional variables in the networks.
Law-abiding versus criminal identity and self-efficacy: A quantitative approach to unravel psychological factors supporting desistance from crime
Authors: Oberlader Verena , Banse Rainer , Beier Susanne , Schmidt Alexander F.
Published: July 2021

Previous studies suggest that the process of becoming desistant from crime is accompanied by a shift from criminal to law-abiding identity and by the development of self-efficacy for law-abiding behavior. Utilizing direct (self-report) and indirect (Implicit Association Test; IAT) measures of both variables we predicted that a) a stronger law-abiding relative to criminal identity and a stronger/weaker self-efficacy for law-abiding/criminal behavior will correlate with less previous criminal involvement at T1 and b) will prospectively explain variance in desistance two to three years later at T2. Results from a sample of late adolescent and adult offenders on probation largely confirmed cross-sectional associations with previous criminal involvement at T1 (N = 325). Univariately, self-reported and latency-based measured identity for law-abiding relative to criminal behavior explained variance in (survival time until) recidivism at T2 as opposed to self-efficacy for law-abiding or criminal behavior. Multivariately, self-reported law-abiding relative to criminal identity explained variance in survival time until recidivism over and beyond actuarial risk factors at T2. Further analyses showed that actuarial risk factors increasingly overestimated the risk to reoffend as the strength of law-abiding relative to criminal identity increased. The findings indicate that the strength of law-abiding relative to criminal identity plays a role in persisting in or desisting from criminal behavior. Yet, further research is necessary to identify the causal psychological mechanisms of identity change in the process towards desistance from crime.

Microbe-intensive technology is an integrated package of various biocontrol agents in chili cultivation. This technology was known to be effective in suppressing various chili diseases. The effect of this technique on the two mayor pests of chili, i.e. fruit flies (Bactrocera sp) and thrips (Thrips sp) is still unknown. The aim of this study was to find out the effect of microbeintensive technology on the infestation intensity of fruit flies and thrips on chili pepper. The study consisted of four treatments, namely fully microbe- intensive, microbe- intensive in the nursery, conventional, and control. The research was conducted in three locations with different altitudes. Infestation intensity of fruit fly were observed at 10 and 11 weeks after planting, while observations of infestation intensity of thrips were carried out once a week from 2 to 10 weeks after planting. The application of microbe-intensive technology significantly reduced the infestation rate of fruit flies. Microbe-intensive technology reduced thrips infestation at two planting locations, i.e. Margasari and Bojong, but It was not significantly affect the thrips infestation on Bumijawa.

U radu se traži odgovor na pitanje kad je izborna kampanja dobra u etičkom smislu i kad je dobra u smislu uspješnosti rezultata koje je ostvarila. Istražuju se mogući kriteriji prosudbe te nalazi da izborna kampanja može biti dobra u etičkom smislu ako se vodi načelom istine i nastoji potaknuti dobar odaziv birača na izbore te da može biti dobra u smislu uspješnosti ako uz umjerene troškove donese rast rejtinga u anketama i veći broj glasova nego na prijašnjim izborima. Primijenivši navedene kriterije na kampanje političkih stranaka u hrvatskim izborima za Europski parlament 2019. spoznaje se da kampanja većine stranaka u etičkom smislu nije bila dobra, a u smislu uspješnosti ističu se samo dvije i to uoči izbora nastale stranke.

Study Objective: To analyse parasitic GIT damage in children in Astrakhan Region as exemplified by Lamblia intestinalis invasion. Study Design: real-time epidemiological analysis. Materials and Methods. Follow-up enrolled 131 children aged 2.5 to 17 years with lambliosis, including 55 (42.0%) school children. Parasitic GIT damage was diagnosed in 33 (60.0%) school children. The highest percentage of subjects with GIT damage and lambliosis was recorded in children aged 7 to 14 years — 21 out of 33 (63.6%) children. Study Results. All children came from organised groups (school children). All followed up children had clinical signs of GIT damage (ultrasound imaging results): reactive pancreas changes — 2 (6.1%), reactive liver changes — 5 (15.2%), signs of biliary dyskinesia — 12 (36.3%), a combination of liver and pancreas damage — 4 (12.1%), a combination of liver, pancreas damage and signs of biliary dyskinesia — 5 (15.2%), liver damage and signs of biliary dyskinesia — 3 (9%), and pancreas damage and signs of biliary dyskinesia — 2 (6.1%). In the majority of cases (n = 25; 75.8%), children were treated with Nifuratel 15 mg/kg twice daily for 7 days. Albendazole 12 mg/kg once daily for 5-7 days was prescribed to 8 (24.2%) children. Conclusion. Lambliosis was more common in primary school children; it can be indicative of inadequate knowledge of personal hygiene routine. The main causes of disease are poor personal hygiene and contact with pets, mostly with cats. Key complaints are abdominal pain, nausea, loss of appetite, loose stool and skin allergies. Keywords: lambliosis, geography, onychophagy, personal hygiene, reactive liver changes, reactive pancreas changes.

Objective of the Paper: To demonstrate a case of successful use of tocilizumab in a child with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Key Points. A clinical variant of JIA is systemic arthritis (systemic JIA). Currently, management of systemic JIA includes tocilizumab, a recombinant humanised anti–interleukin-6 receptor monoclonal antibody. The article describes a case of successful use of tocilizumab in a child with systemic JIA after inefficient therapy with glucocorticosteroids and methotrexate. Conclusion. Systemic JIA is the severest clinical JIA variant. Tocilizumab allows achieving the quiescent disease stage where the standard therapy with glucocorticosteroids and methotrexate is ineffective. Keywords: system arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, tocilizumab, children.
Muscular system of euconodont animals and their systematic position (Euconodontophylea)
Authors: Kasatkina A.P. , Buryi G.I.
Published: July 2021

The muscular system of euconodont animals was studied in detail on the basis of the photographs of imprints from the Lower Carboniferous Shrimp Bed of Granton (Scotland), Upper Ordovician Soom Shale (South Africa), and Silurian Waukesha biota (North America). Superficial body structures are for the first time recognized for euconodont animals: external rings (annulation) (Panderodus imprint) and their traces (specimens 2 and 3 from Granton). This makes them looking like many invertebrates, such as annelids, priapulids, or pentastomids, and different from primitive chordates. In all other imprints of euconodont animals, a deep frontal break reaching their central part uncovers the inner transversal structures of the body, muscular fibers. As in invertebrates, they have different orientation. The medial apices of the fibers can be directed obliquely towards either the head (specimens 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 from Granton, and Promissum pulchrum Kovacs-Endrődy imprints) or the tail (specimens 2 and 6 from Granton) or to be perpendicular to the body axis (specimens 3-5 from Granton). Discontinuity of the transversal structures (specimens 1 and 6) appears to occur in the euconodont animals. This suggests that the transversal obliquely-oriented structures visible on the euconodont imprints, are not myomers typical of chordate animals. Differently directed position of medial apices of the obliquely-oriented muscular fibers depends, probably, on physical state (direction of movement) of the animal. The longitudinal median structure, in our opinion, cannot be considered a chord, but is rather a gut extending from pharynx to anus. Apparently, in spite of visual similarity, the euconodont animals under study cannot be classified as chordates, or chaetognaths, or pentastomids. Their muscular system differs from that of all known groups of animals and shows its own unique structure: its inner transversal structures are muscular fibers, which externally look like rings (annulation). This supports our earlier conclusion (Kasatkina & Buryi, 1997) that euconodonts constitute a separate phylum, Euconodontophylea Kasatkina & Buryi, 1997.

Impact of Punitive Supervision on Employee Performance: Employees Exhaustion as a Mediating Role in The Hospitality Sector of Pakistan
Authors: Sattar Shahzadi , Mushtaq Danish , Mushtaq Amna
Published: July 2021

The deliberate, cognizant utilization of animosity (as an operant) to shape and control the reactions of subordinates and increase consistency with orders, hierarchical guidelines and casual standards is known as punitive supervision. In this study, we investigate the relationship between punitive supervision and employee performance by using employee exhaustion as a mediating role in the model. The target population in the investigation is the hospitality sector, including hotels and restaurants in south Punjab. The research was quantitative in nature. We developed a questionnaire from existing literature. The research sector of the survey was the Hospitality sector, and we choose a management level of the hotel industry. The framework of the investigation has proposed the search out the outcomes of the punitive supervision in the hospitality sector of Pakistan. In this study, the model was developed according to the social exchange theory. Punitive supervision is a newly developed concept. The results recommend that if the supervisor has behavior negatively then the employee was exhausted, and in the resultants, the performance of the employee was decreased.

Increased life expectancy and low mortality rates are the major reason for the increasing number of the older population. Developed countries are not only facing this problem, but the number of developing countries are also increasing. Pakistan is also among those countries having a greater portion of the older population. Objective: The present study was focused on exploring the relationship between the educational achievement of older persons and their disease profile. Methods: A structured tool was developed to interview 384 older persons. Data were coded and analyzed in SPSS. Male and female participation was with ratio 70:30 while 53.9% sample was age 60-65 years. Results: Most of the respondents were illiterate, followed by primary, secondary, and matriculation degree holder elders. Hypertension, Heart problem, Diabetes, Arthritis, and Asthma issue are observed among older persons. Diabetes is the only disease reported by OPs with a qualification from illiterate to a Master degree with varied percentiles. Regression model [ y=5.0749+.0646x] with R Square = .0013. Conclusion: We conclude that a relationship exists among study variables but non-significantly while the value of R^2tells us how assertive you can be that each distinct variable has some correlation with the dependent variable, which is the important indicator.

Soviet-Egyptian political relations in the views of the Egyptian publicist Mohamed Heikal
Authors: Abdel' Vakhed Essam
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to the activities of Egyptian publicist Mohamed Hassanein Heikal and his views on Soviet-Egyptian political relations in the second half of the 20th century.
In the early 1950s Heikal took a high place among Egypt’s popular writers. He is considered the first correspondent of Arab modern journalism, which absorbed some Western approaches and traditions.
The political life that was unfolding before his eyes, the friendship with President Gamal Abd Nasser, many trips to different countries of the world, shaped his rich experience as a journalist.
The materials of the study were the books of Mohamed Hassanein Heikal, reflecting the diplomatic relations of the two countries. The article notes that throughout his activities Haikal advocated the establishment of Soviet-Egyptian relations and praised the role of the USSR in supporting Egypt. He wrote about this in several journalistic books “For Egypt, not for Nasser”, “Sphinx and the Commissioner”, “Cairo Documents” and “Soviet Earthquake”, based on documents and personal impressions of events which he witnessed personally.
The books of Egyptian journalist and publicist Mohamed Hassanein Heikal, his views are a reflection of the realities of the modern Arab world. Heikal School - School of Journalism. Submitting information in his newspaper Al-Ahram, he analyzed events, relying on facts and documents, thereby influencing the minds of readers. Heikal worked in various directions, created a center for strategic policy research, which studied the influence of the West on the Middle East.
Heikal's work was described as “controversial”, “intriguing”, “based on the unique information” of this “most informed journalist in the Arab world”.
Inhibitory Effects of Targeted Regulatory LKB1 Gene on the Proliferation and Invasion of Osteosarcoma Cells
Authors: Liu Jie
Published: July 2021

In this study, Immunodeficiency Nude Mouse Osteosarcoma Xenograft Model was subjected to the drug intervention to explore the effect of bexarotene on the proliferation and invasion of osteosarcoma cell lines in vitro. The inhibitory effects of targeted regulatory genes on the proliferation and invasion of osteosarcoma cells were studied through various in vitro experiments include bioinformatics combined with tissue microarray research, transcription factor prediction combined with co-expression analysis to predict the transcription factor of targeted regulatory genes in osteosarcoma. The RXR protein family, LKB1, AMPK pathway, and mTOR are closely related to the body’s immune regulation. The oral administration of Bexarotene could inhibit the proliferation and able to up-regulate the expression of LKB1 gene in living osteosarcoma tissue. The xenograft model of immunodeficiency nude mice used in this study was reason for reduced the potential immunoregulatory effect of drug targeted LKB1 therapy to a certain extent. However, overexpression of LKB1 in vivo, and combined immunotherapy may become an important immunotherapy approach for osteosarcoma. LKB1 targeted therapy can potentially be used as one of the alternative treatments for mTOR inhibitors.

Die Digitalisierung ermöglicht es Menschen weltweit und kulturübergreifend, sich zu vernetzen. Sie erleichtert aber auch die Versuche unterschiedlichster Akteure, Einfluss auf Wahlen und Abstimmungen zu nehmen. Die Diskussionen um Fake News, Echokammern und die Polarisierung der Gesellschaften werden aktuell hitzig geführt. Doch sind all diese Diskussionen gleich relevant? Und haben wir als Gesellschaft die nötige Reife, um von den neuen Instrumenten ideal zu profitieren? Die Studie von gfs.bern enthält eine Bestandesaufnahme. Sie zeigt, wie das schweizerische Politiksystem der Digitalisierung ausgesetzt ist und wie es darauf reagiert. Die Studie ist eine von insgesamt drei Studien, die im Rahmen des Projekts «Bürger und Institutionen angesichts der Digitalisierung der Demokratie in der Schweiz» im Auftrag von TA-SWISS erarbeitet worden sind. Sie beleuchten die Auswirkungen der Digitalisierung auf die Demokratie aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln: Während gfs.bern insbesondere die Auswirkungen sozialer Medien auf Meinungsbildung und Partizipation untersucht, legt der Dachverband der Schweizer Jugendparlamente DSJ den Fokus auf Jugendliche und ihre Teilhabe am demokratischen System.

Verschwörungsmythen am Beispiel von QAnon und Neue Weltordnung – Eine rekonstruktive Metaphernanalyse
Authors: Fehr Charlotte
Published: July 2021

Dieser Beitrag untersucht mit Hilfe der Methode der rekonstruktiven Metaphernanalyse die Wirklichkeitskonstruktion von Verschwörungsgläubigen. Die weite Verbreitung von Verschwörungsmythen deutet darauf hin, dass diese umfassende gesellschaftliche Funktionen übernehmen und rein pathologisierende Beschreibungen von Verschwörungsgläubigen nicht ausreichend sind. Folglich scheint eine systematische Untersuchung der subjektiven Wahrnehmung der sozialen Wirklichkeit notwendig unter Berücksichtigung der Frage, welche Funktionen Verschwörungsmythen für Individuen und Kollektive erfüllen. Anhand eines Interviews und ausgewähltem Textmaterial von Verschwörungsgläubigen wird gezeigt, wie verschiedene Elemente eines Verschwörungsmythos sowie die Verhältnisse dieser Elemente zueinander metaphorisch konzeptualisiert werden. Die verwendeten Metaphern werden dazu nach Bildspendebereichen kategorisiert und die daraus resultierenden Konzepte analysiert. Die Konzeptualisierung von Verschwörungen beispielsweise als „Krieg“, „Jagd“ oder „Theaterstück“ thematisieren potenziell lebensbedrohliche Konflikte, Autonomieverlust sowie Machtungleichheiten und offenbaren Gefühle von Ohnmacht und Angst.
‚Krisen‘ und ‚Verschwörungstheorien‘ in Zeiten der Corona-Pandemie. Wissenssoziologische Analysen
Authors: Klimasch Sebastian
Published: July 2021

In Zeiten der Corona-Pandemie dominieren Krisendiagnosen das Tagesgeschäft. Zu deren zentralen Bezugspunkten zählen neben (den Folgen) der Pandemiebekämpfung im engeren Sinne vor allem sogenannte Verschwörungstheorien und Verschwörungstheoretiker*innen. Zum einen mehren sich angesichts der von den „Querdenker*innen“ initiierten „Hygiene-Demonstrationen“ Krisendiagnosen, die in der gegenwärtigen Protestpraxis den vorläufigen Höhepunkt eines demokratiezersetzenden „postfaktischen Zeitalters“ sehen. Zum anderen werden die Gründe für diesen vermeintlichen Popularitätszuwachs von Verschwörungstheorien ihrerseits in der Krisenhaftigkeit der Pandemie verortet. Das Moment der Krisenhaftigkeit wird also regelmäßig sowohl als Ursache wie auch als Folge von Verschwörungstheorien verhandelt. Der vorliegende Beitrag gewinnt sein Untersuchungsinteresse aus dieser prominenten diskursiven Verknüpfung von subjektiven und gesellschaftlichen Krisen einerseits sowie Verschwörungstheorien andererseits. Aus der Perspektive einer phänomenologisch-fundierten Wissenssoziologie will er auf eine theoretisch-konzeptionelle Alternative zur bislang öffentlich dominierenden Bestimmung dieses nicht nur gegenwärtig kulturbedeutsamen Phänomenbestands verweisen.
Ultrasonic unilateral double-position excitation lamb wave defect detection and quantification method for ground electrode of transmission tower

Published: July 2021

The power transmission tower’s ground electrode defect will affect its normal current dispersion function and threaten the power system’s safe and stable operation and even personal safety. Aiming at the problem that the buried grounding grid is difficult to be detected, this paper proposes a method for identifying the ground electrode defects of transmission towers based on single-side multi-point excited ultrasonic guided waves. The geometric model, ultrasonic excitation model, and physical model are established, and the feasibility of ultrasonic guided wave detection is verified through the simulation and experiment. In actual inspection, it is equally important to determine the specific location of the defect. Therefore, a multi-point excitation method is proposed to determine the defect’s actual position by combining the ultrasonic guided wave signals at different excitation positions. Besides, the precise quantification of flat steel grounding electrode defects is achieved through the feature extraction-neural network method. Field test results show that, compared with the commercial double-sided excitation transducer, the single-sided excitation transducer proposed in this paper has a lower defect quantization error in defect quantification. The average quantization error is reduced by approximately 76%.
Modal analysis of a complex shell structure under operational loads
Authors: Bazhenov Viktor , Krivenko Olga , Kozak Andrii
Published: July 2021

The results of calculation of a complex shell structure under the action of operational loads are presented. A three-section cooling tower, called a three-petal cooling tower, is regarded as a complex-shaped structure. Three variants of loads on the shell are considered: wind pressure, heating and load combination. The design model of a shell of a complex shape is based on the developed universal spatial finite element. The universal spatial finite element allows one to take into account the geometric features of structural elements for a thin shell (constant or varying thickness, knees, ribs, cover plates, holes, cavities, channels, inserts, facets) and multilayer structure of the material. According to the method, thin and medium thickness shells of various shapes and structures are considered. The shells are under the action of static mechanical and temperature loads. The finite element method is based on the unified positions of the three-dimensional geometrically nonlinear theory of thermoelasticity and the moment finite element scheme. The method for determining the natural vibrations of thin-walled shell structures is based on an integrated approach. Modal analysis is carried out taking into account the prestressed and deformed states of the shell at each step of thermomechanical loading. Thus, the problem of determining the natural frequencies and vibration modes of the shell is solved by the step method in two stages.

Brazil stands out among the world's largest soy producers. The uniformity in the deposition of seeds and the correct distribution of plants are important factors for the crop to express its maximum productive potential. The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of the lubricant agent “graphite”, applied during and after the chemical treatment of soybean seeds in function of its longitudinal distribution at different operating speeds. For this purpose, a seeder with mechanical type feeder was used, at three working speeds: 4, 6 and 8 km h-1 and conducted in a strip design, organized in a 2x3 factorial scheme, with two different modes of application of graphite and 3 operating speeds. The results presented showed that the addition of graphite concomitantly with the seed treatment, increases the unevenness of sowing, the same occurs in relation to the increase in the speed of operation. Graphite loses lubricating action when added to the seed treatment, increasing the number of failures.

Definition of Globalization in the Context of European Integration
Authors: Szabó Barna
Published: July 2021

Globalization is perhaps the most frequently used yet least defined terms of our era. Theodore Levitt was the first to  scientifically analyse the phenomenon in his study  published in 1983; however, no one came up with a  definition accepted by everyone to date. In addition to the  introduction of scientific definitions, evolvement and the  main branches of globalization, in this paper I attempt to  present my own, scientific definition of the term that may  serve as a useful working definition in the analysis of  European integration.
How Does Monetary Policy Affect Income Inequality? Evidence from Europe
Authors: Czeczeli Vivien
Published: July 2021

The issue of inequalities has become increasingly important in recent decades. Although distributional effects, such as  inequalities, are commonly associated with globalisation  and fiscal policy processes, many of the side effects of the  exceptionally loose monetary policy of the last decade also  affect the issue. After identifying the mechanisms and  channels linking the field of monetary policy and inequality,  the research focuses on empirical analyses. The  research is based on a panel ARDL test focusing on the 19  Euro area countries and Denmark, Sweden and Switzerland,  where negative nominal interest rates have  been applied. The research includes the period of 2008–2018. The aim of the paper is to assess how certain  monetary policy indicators affect inequality. The main  conclusion is consistent with the existing literature: the  effect of monetary policy to inequalities is modest, however  not negligible. The effect of inflation seems to be  weak; however, the rise in unemployment rate and long  term interest rates negatively affect inequalities. The  positive effects of the rising GDP per capita are also proven  by the analysis.
The Appearance of Awareness Related to Counter Intelligence in the Home Affairs Review in the Early 1960s
Authors: Mezei József
Published: July 2021

In the early 1960s, there were several events in the world and in Hungary that posed adecisive impact on the work of state security, including the field of counter intelligence. Political shifts in the socialist countries that began in the second half of the 1950s, including aconfrontation with the former Stalinist system, the need to win over society in detecting crime, and the necessary broadening of relations between the two opposing blocs, all affected state security; also the reorganisation of the Ministry of the Interior (BM) in 1962, but also the rethinking of the professional journal of the Ministry of the Interior (Police Review) and its launch as the Home Affairs Review in 1963.The purpose of the present writing is to overview how those changes appeared in the articles of the Home Affairs Review with regard to one of the main areas of state security, the counter intelligence.
