The study was for the comparison and to know the choice of Models of appreciation of the mineralization of the two herbicides under the effect of two manures (cattle and sheep) in two agricultural soils of different textures. During this work, we used two types of manure, cattle F1 and sheep F2 with two doses. The application of respirometry for monitoring biological activity has been conducted in the laboratory. The treatments were measured for carbon-labeled herbicides released (14CO2) after 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 42, 60, 90, 120 and 150 days of incubation. Non-linear mathematical models have been developed for the study of the kinetics of the mineralization of herbicides under the effect of manures. The selection criteria for these fit models are R² and RMCE. The comparison of six models stated to choose the single-compartmental model to a first-order ascending exponential that best fits the experimental data. These models show a strong positive correlation between labeled carbon and the biodegradation time of herbicides, especially in clay-textured soil.

Kohandej is a combination of two words, alt and dej, meaning fence and old castle. Both words denote a high enclosure, and the historical course of Kunduz, which is the main basis of the enclosure at the time of the Aryan rulers of Balkh, namely Ki Khosro and Qiqbad, was formed in their time 1900 years before Christ. It was conquered and destroyed and rebuilt several times over time, earning it the name Kohandezh. The province of Kunduz, known as Kunduz, Kunduz, "Waki Dej" The kings of this period were also known as Kayanis, which the epic poet Ferdowsi mentions in his book Shahnameh about these kings. Our ancient and historical land of Afghanistan was a place where cultures and trade goods intersected on a regional level, and it has long been considered a trading center between East and West. The Kushans, who founded a large empire in Ariana in the early centuries of the Christian era, traded with neighboring rulers via the Silk Road. Qunduz or Kunduz, originally known as Kohan Dej, is located in northeastern Afghanistan, and its center is the city of Kunduz. This city was the capital of Yaptlian for 110 years. Unfortunately, the historical and ancient areas of Kunduz province have been severely damaged by the internal wars of the last four decades, and no attention has been paid to the insecurities and developments of the last decade. It originates from Islam, Hivan Tseng mentioned the city of Kunduz under the name (Heweh) and regarded it as the center of Buddhism.

This paper sheds light on the works of composer Ih Kangyul, who has not yetbeen studied in a full-fledged academic manner. The piece <> for clarinetand piano, which is discussed in this paper, is the last piece of small chamber ensemblewritten in the latter half of his life. It not only condenses his musical skills and thoughts, butalso suggests the future-oriented direction he was pursuing. This piece shows how tonalstructures and harmony of tonal music are integrated and utilized in atonal music. In this piece, the structure is considered as a two-part form, and it is divided into foursections. The clarinet and piano are separated horizontally, and the tonal relationships andchords shown in the piano are investigated, and the characteristics of the melody anddevelopment method shown in the clarinet are focused on. The attempt to combine tonal music and atonal music is considered to be one way forcomposers living in the 21st century. In addition, the composer's highly musical and logicaldevelopment method shown in this piece is considered to be a model for later composers.

Abstract
This study evaluated the profitability of locally formulated finishing rations to enhance sheep growth performance. Kenya, a net importer of meat and meat products, is projected to face increased demand due to rising incomes and urbanization. Sheep play a crucial role in food production, rural employment, and the national economy by converting roughage into meat, wool, and skin. The growing domestic and export demand for mutton necessitates the development of more efficient production systems. However, current production systems are constrained by low slaughter weights and extended timeframes to market readiness, with small ruminants requiring over two years to reach market weight. Thus, a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was employed, assigning 10 groups of three sheep to different diets, including a control group. Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), with diet as the primary independent variable. The results indicated that Ration 8 significantly outperformed other diets, achieving the highest weekly average weight gain. Profitability analysis revealed an internal rate of return (IRR) of 22 per cent, suggesting that the investment would break even within 2.5 years. Ration 8 demonstrated both growth and economic benefits, providing a viable solution for improving sheep production. This study advocates for the promotion and commercialization of Ration 8 to enhance meat production, reduce imports, support rural livelihoods, and contribute to climate change mitigation. Future research should focus on investigating the nutrient composition, digestibility, and genetic interactions of Ration 8, along with long-term studies on its effects on meat quality, reproduction, and flock health.

Esta pesquisa surgiu da inquietação do pesquisador em saber o grau de dificuldade que os alunos têm em algumas áreas da geometria. Para tanto, este artigo tem como objetivo de compreender como os alunos desenvolvem o entendimento e fixam os conceitos relacionados às relações entre triângulos, circunferências e construções geométricas em sala de aula. Os triângulos são figuras geométricas formadas por três vértices, três lados e três ângulos internos e externos. Um dos conceitos fundamentais na geometria é que a soma dos ângulos internos de qualquer triângulo é sempre igual a 180º. É um grande desafio trabalhar esse assunto em sala de aula devido ao grau de dificuldade que muitos alunos têm sobre o assunto. Quando isso superado, os alunos desenvolvem habilidades importantes, como a resolução de problemas, a construção de argumentos matemáticos lógicos e a compreensão de relações espaciais Podemos dizer que a presente pesquisa foi realizada por meio das seguintes etapas: revisão da literatura, construção do instrumento de pesquisa, validação e aplicação do mesmo, sistematização e análise das informações produzidas, na qual utilizou uma abordagem qualitativa de cunho descritivo, envolvendo atividades práticas, observações e análise de produções dos estudantes.
Fitting the junction model and other parameterizations for the unsaturated soil hydraulic conductivity curve: KRIAfitter version 1.0
Authors: de Rooij Gerrit Huibert
Published: January 2025

Abstract. Several current models for the unsaturated soil hydraulic conductivity curve consider the conductivity of the domains of capillary water in water–filled pores and adsorbed water in films on soil grains, as well as an equivalent conductivity for water vapour diffusion. These models rely on unrealistic configuration of the domains. A junction model is introduced that sidesteps this problem by assigning all liquid water to films (dry range), or to capillaries (wet range). Combined with a sigmoidal junction model for the soil water retention curve, it has up to six fitting parameters, one less than the other multidomain models. Tests on data for 13 soils show that the junction model and an additive model (that adds all domain conductivities) often produce good fits. Models with six or more parameters may be overparameterized for many soils, giving the more parsimonious junction model an advantage, but for some soils, the extra parameter of the additive model is needed to achieve a good fit. This paper and a User Manual document a Fortran code (KRIAfitter) that uses the Shuffled Complex Evolution algorithm to fit the junction, additive, and four other conductivity models for any combination of fixed and fitting parameters or their log–transforms. KRIAfitter either maps the Root Mean Square Error in the entire parameter space in order to then constrain the parameter space around the likely global minimum, or it generates many fits and uses those to calculate statistics for individual parameters, as well as the covariance and correlation matrices.
Characterising evapotranspiration signatures for improved behavioural insights

Published: January 2025

Abstract. Hydrological signatures are statistical metrics useful to quantify and infer behaviours of hydrological processes, but there has been limited use of signatures for non-streamflow variables, such as actual evapotranspiration (AET). AET signatures can assist in tasks such as evaluating remotely sensed products, diagnosing deficiencies in hydrological models, and improving understanding of hydrological processes, such as the role of AET in driving hydrological drought. This study proposes eight AET signatures defined at various temporal scales from daily to annual. We demonstrate the value of AET signatures by using them to assess two remotely sensed AET (AETRS) products against flux tower AET (AETFluxtower) at seventeen FluxNET sites in Australia. The two AETRS products are Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS, 16A2GFv06.1), and CSIRO MODIS Reflectance-based Scaling Evapotranspiration (CMRSET). Annually, median AETRS closely matches AETFluxtower, except in less-arid regions. However, signatures reveal RSAET largely underestimates the variability of flux tower data at both annual and monthly scales. Other monthly indices are better matched, such as indices of water stress and AET asynchronicity with potential evapotranspiration. However, some metrics are better matched in one product than the other, such as the strength and timing of seasonal fluctuations, with MODIS exhibiting a phase shift. Overall, the signatures reveal that regionally-developed CMRSET outperformed globally-developed MOD16A2GFv061. This study, the first to systematically define AET signatures, offers a way of assessing various aspects of AET dynamics across temporal scales. Furthermore, the case study highlights specific deficiencies in AETRS and may assist in selecting appropriate AETRS, including for modelling studies.

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant and deadly infection among pulmonary diseases caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a highly adaptive bacterium. The ability of M. tuberculosis to evade certain drugs has been linked to its unique structure, particularly in the cell envelope, where the Ag85 complex proteins play an essential role in this part.  The aim of this study was to utilize a drug repurposing strategy targeting the Ag85 complex proteins. This study utilized a computational approach with 120 selected drugs experimentally identified to inhibit Tuberculosis. A virtual screening molecular docking with Autodock Vina was used to filter the compounds and identify the strong binders to the Ag85 Complex. Molecular dynamics simulations employed the Gromacs Packages to evaluate the stability of each complex, including root mean square deviation (RMSD), root mean square fluctuation (RMSF), and radius of gyration (RoG). Additionally, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) assessments were conducted to gather more information about the drug-likeness of each hit compound. Three compounds, selamectin, imatinib, and eltrombopag were selected as potential drugs repurposed to inhibit the activity of the Ag85 complex enzyme, with binding affinities ranging between -10.560 kcal/mol and -11.422 kcal/mol. The MD simulation within 100 ns (3 replicas) showed that the average RMSD of each Ag85A complex was 0.15 nm–0.16 nm, RMSF was 0.09 nm–0.10 nm, and RoG was 1.80 nm–1.81 nm. For Ag85B, the average RMSD was 1.79 nm–1.80 nm, RMSF was 0.08 nm–0.09 nm, and RoG was 1.79 nm – 1.80 nm. Then, for Ag85C, the mean RMSD was 0.16 nm–0.18 nm, RMSF was 0.09, and RoG was 1.77 nm. The study highlights that these promising results demonstrate the potential of some repurposed drugs in combating the Ag85 complex.

Investigation of Inner and Outer Flow Field Characteristics of Pyramidal Roof Rectangular Base Building Due to Synoptic Wind Flow through it by Changing the Wall Porosity of the Building.
Authors: Franky Kumar Kalia
Published: January 2025

A key component of building design involves understanding the flow field that develops near a building due to synoptic wind flow across it. The wind environment around buildings is important for their structural strength, but it also has an impact on ventilation effectiveness, pedestrian comfort, and the spread of pollutants. Modern structures now have a variety of apertures, including windows, doors, and ventilators, leading to the rise of the green building idea and environmentally friendly living. The flow field becomes more complex as a result of these apertures, which alter the flow properties inside and outside the building. The goal of the current study is to better understand the flow fields surrounding the structures with openings, both internally and externally. This study aims to examine the wind flow over structures with Pyramidal roof rectangular base building that have openings exposed to synoptic winds. Using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach, internal flow within the buildings is also examined for optimal ventilation. Numerical simulations are conducted using ANSYS-FLUENT, a commercially available CFD program. The steady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) equations are solved by numerical simulations.  This study examines the effects of various wall porosities on the building façade as well as the relative vertical placements of the openings. The flow field both within and outside of buildings is significantly impacted by wall porosities and the relative vertical positions of openings on building facades. The internal pressure distribution and air flow rate are greatly influenced by the wall porosity. The study provides information about the flow environment within and outside of a low-rise building with Pyramidal roof rectangular base building with openings, which is useful for estimating wind loads for the building's structural design and for creating a natural ventilation system.
MICHEL DE MONTAIGNE: WRITERLY NUDITY AND THE DISSOLUTION OF THE SEXUAL CHASM
Authors: BAUER J. Edgar
Published: January 2025

On his way to Rome, Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) made a one-day visit to the city of Vitry-le-François on September 10, 1580. There, he met a female-born man whose male sexual organs had been generated as the erstwhile young girl had been making large strides. The narrative of the event in Montaigne’s Essais reflects his interest in the complexities of sexual difference and his critical approach of the regnant scheme of sexual binarity. The present contribution highlights Montaigne’s attentiveness to sexual configurations at variance with the male/female template that subtends the normative views upheld by the ecclesiastical and civil authorities of the French sixteenth century. Not being an outspoken advocate of contrarian sexual takes, Montaigne sufficed himself with pointing to the existence of mythological, anthropological and historical accounts implying the categorial inadequateness of subsuming individuals under one of two mutually exclusive sexes. What appears at first to be merely illustrations of anormative sexual forms, is actually meant to open the way toward the validation, within the ambit of sexuality, of Montaigne’s foremost ontic principle: "Nature has committed herself not to make any other thing that was not different." On this assumption, Montaigne eventually hints in his comprehensive essay "On some verses of Virgil "at a template of sexual differentiation that dispenses with the prevalent (albeit thoughtless) scheme of dichotomous sexuality. Despite introducing a self-deprecative tone to dissipate possible accusations of propounding an un-Christian stance on sexual matters, the brief passage at stake envisages surrendering the immemorial fixity of sexual compartmentations to the limitless sexual variability that occurs in Nature, thereby setting the theoretical stage for his writerly aspiration to portray himself "tout nud" in a world free of taxonomic closures.
A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF JÜRGEN HABERMAS' CONCEPTION OF LABOUR IN HIS EARLY WRITINGS
Authors: DEACONU Alex-Flavius
Published: January 2025

This paper revisits Jürgen Habermas early conceptualization of labor, emphasizing its framing as instrumental action. While recognizing that Habermas' instrumental model—centered on efficiency and control over nature—captures a vital dimension of labor, the analysis argues that it overlooks labor’s full emancipatory potential. To address this limitation, the paper proposes supplementing the instrumental model with communicative action, emphasizing the interplay between labor's technical and moral-social dimensions. By integrating these complementary perspectives, the paper advances a more comprehensive understanding of labor’s role in human emancipation.
HINTIKKA’S THEOREM DOES NOT HOLD IN NON-AXIOMATIC LOGIC
Authors: LÓPEZ-ASTORGA Miguel
Published: January 2025

Hintikka’s theorem relates what is impossible to what is forbidden. It provides that if something is impossible, that cannot be permitted. There are logical demonstrations of the theorem. Those demonstrations follow requirements of classical, modal, and deontic logics. However, there are also accounts based on psychological theories trying to explain why people’s tendency should be to reject it. I will attempt to account for the probable rejection of the theorem by people too. But my explanation will resort to Non-Axiomatic Logic. I will argue that, from the latter logic, linking possibility and prohibition is preferable to linking impossibility and prohibition. So, Hintikka’s theorem does not hold in Non-Axiomatic Logic.

WITTGENSTEIN AND PROGRESS
Authors: CHURUKANAVA Katsiaryna
Published: January 2025

In this article, I consider the concept of progress and Ludwig Wittgenstein’s attitude towards it. The difficulty we face when attempting to unambiguously define and even understand such a phenomenon as progress gives rise to some confusion in our perceptions and analysis. Moreover, this difficulty may distort our understanding of certain philosophers’ thoughts on progress. Given that Wittgenstein lived during a time of remarkable scientific discoveries, but also of tragic historical events, examining his thoughts on progress seems both intriguing and fruitful. The aim of this article is not to identify any specific stance that Wittgenstein articulated with regard to progress, but rather to attempt to demonstrate that today many of his ideas can be effectively utilised to better understand progress and its role.
Exploring the buffalo whey: a look at nanotechnology in search of strategies for the modern nutraceutical industry
Authors: Vasile Franco E.
Published: January 2025

Buffalo whey is the most important by-product of the cheese industry. Whey proteins constitute the most exciting component from a technological and economic point of view. They present attractive, functional properties and, similarly to proteins of bovine milk whey, they could also be used as an ingredient (dairy beverages, nutritional supplements) and/or food additives (emulsifier, foaming agent, encapsulant) in novel applications with high-added value, such as nano or microencapsulation. However, buffalo whey has traditionally been used as a raw material for producing ricotta, as animal feed, or well discarded, constituting the main effluent in cheese-making establishments. The use of buffalo whey in novel applications poses a promising scenario, while research is still limited, which warns of endless possibilities.

BACKGROUND

Fear of childbirth (FoC) is a widespread issue that impacts the health and well-being of mothers and newborns. However, there is inconsistency regarding the prevalence of FoC in the and there is limited research on the prevalence of FoC among Australian pregnant women.

AIM

To investigate the prevalence of FoC, its risk factors and birth outcomes in Australian multiparous women.

METHODS

In this prospective cohort quantitative study, 212 multiparous women were recruited from antenatal clinics at Westmead Hospital in western Sydney from 2019 to 2022. Pregnant women who attended antenatal visits and met the inclusion criteria signed the consent forms and completed several online questionnaires at baseline. After they gave birth, their birth outcomes were collected from the hospital’s medical record database. The data were analyzed using SPSS software and descriptive statistics, χ 2 test, independent samples t -test, and multivariable logistic regression analysis.

RESULTS

Out of 212 participants, 24% experienced a high level of FoC and 7% experienced severe FoC. The χ 2 test results revealed that a family income of ≤ $100000, no alcohol intake during pregnancy, pre-existing health problems, previous caesarean section (emergency or planned), and previous neutral/traumatic childbirth experiences were significantly associated with higher levels of FoC (P < 0.05). Other risk factors included being moderately to very worried and fearful about the upcoming birth, having severe to extremely severe anxiety throughout pregnancy, and expressing low relationship satisfaction. According to multivariable logistic regression, the odds of a high level of FoC were higher in women with anxiety, a history of traumatic childbirth experience, a history of sexual assault during childhood, pre-existing health problems, and lower relationship satisfaction (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSION

High-severe levels of FoC are experienced by pregnant multiparous women and are affected by several demographic factors. However, due to the small sample size in the present study, further studies with larger sample sizes are required to draw a firm conclusion on the prevalence of severe FoC among multiparous women and its associated risk factors and birth outcomes.

Hypertension is a significant global health challenge and a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and metabolic disorders. Insulin resistance, often associated with hypertension, plays a pivotal role in the development of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. This study aims to explore the relationship between hypertension and insulin resistance, focusing on the correlation between insulin resistance and varying grades of hypertension. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 190 participants, comprising 95 hypertensive and 95 non-hypertensive individuals. Key parameters such as blood pressure, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, lipid profiles, and the Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) were evaluated.
The results revealed a statistically significant association between hypertension and higher levels of insulin resistance (p < 0.001). Additionally, patients with Stage II hypertension exhibited significantly higher HOMA-IR values compared to those with Stage I hypertension. The findings underscore the bidirectional relationship between hypertension and insulin resistance, highlighting the need for integrated clinical management to mitigate cardiovascular and metabolic risks. Future studies should focus on the mechanistic pathways and the impact of targeted interventions.
SYNTHESIS, CRYSTAL GROWTH, OPTICAL, THERMAL AND THEORETICAL STUDIES OF 1-(4-BROMOPHENYL)-3-(4-CHLOROPHENYL)PROP-2-EN-1-ONE

Published: January 2025

Transparent tiny crystals of 1-(4Chlorophenyl)-3-(4-bromophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one [CBP] were grown in ethanol by the slow evaporation solution growth technique at room temperature. The functional groups were confirmed by FT–IR and compared with theoretical studies. The crystallographic data indicate that the CBP crystallizes in the monoclinic system with centrosymmetric space group of P21/c. The powder X–ray diffraction study shows the good crystallinity of the material and there is a good agreement with the simulated XRD patterns. TGA/DTA study reveals the purity of the sample and no decomposition is observed up to the melting point. Electron delocalization is confirmed by molecular electrostatic potential contour maps. The intermolecular charge transfer is evidenced by Mulliken charge population analysis. Hirshfeld surfaces derived fingerprint plots are used to quantify the hydrogen bonding interactions present in the crystal lattice. Molecular level nonlinearity with a high first-order molecular hyperpolarizability is observed. By proper design it is possible to disturb centrosymmetry and sustain nonlinearity at the macro level, a required property for an NLO material.

The Function of Common Sense as a Hegemonic Instrument in Paul Beatty's Novel the Sellout
Authors: Abadi Diana Salsabila , Darmawan Ruly Indra
Published: January 2025

This study aims to investigate how deeply ingrained common sense can become as a hegemonic tool of the dominant group, normalizing and naturalizing ideas to the point where they feel like accepted and indisputable realities that can guide actions and thoughts, while also influencing social interactions and identity formation of subaltern groups. This study uses qualitative and descriptive analysis methodologies within the theoretical framework of Antonio Gramsci's theory of hegemony, it is centered on the novel The Sellout by African-American author Paul Beatty that focuses on the interactions and characters in the novel to see how common sense acts as a hegemonic tool that upholds the beliefs, values, and viewpoints of dominant groups. The researcher discovered around forty-two instances of the concept of "common sense" function in the novel The Sellout. However, the total may surpass this figure based on broader interpretations. The researcher picked nine cases that were most pertinent to the research aims of this article. This study found that the novel The Sellout, when analyzed using qualitative and descriptive methods in the context of Antonio Gramsci's approach, successfully captures the function in which common sense acts as a hegemonic tool for upholding the beliefs, values, and viewpoints of dominant groups and, as a result, can influence social dynamics and personal identities
