Authors: Jerlite K. J. Jasmine , Nevaditha N. T.
Published: April 2022

Bio based polymers are reinforced with natural fibers as a good candidate to the replacement of synthetic materials. In this work biobased polyurethane cellulose nanocomposites (PUCNs)  prepared from hydroxylated olive oil and diphenyl methane - 4, 4 - diisocyanate,in the presence of dibutyl tin dilaurate as catalyst and incorporated with varying concentration of cellulose nanocrystals. The polyurethane cellulose nanocomposites films have been characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM and TGA/DTA studies. The compatibility of the nanocomposites is evaluated by invitro hemolytic assay method. The FTIR analysis indicates the presence of the cellulose nanocrystals in the polyurethane matrix. The formation of urethane linkage is confirmed by the stretching vibrations of the peak  around 3330 cm-1. XRD diffraction pattern of the samples shows a increase of 2% crystallinity by the addition of cellulose nanoparticles. The average size of cellulose nanocrystals is calculated as 16nm. SEM images shows a rod like structure of cellulose nanocrystals and the fine dispersion of cellulose nanocrystals in the polymer matrix. The degradation of PUCNs is more pronounced in different chemical environments than polyurethane. Thermogravimetric analysis observed that the addition of cellulose nanocrystals increases the thermal stability of PUCNs upto 300oC.

Authors: JAIN PS
Published: April 2022

Following lead from Lovejoy's (1982) investigations the structure of radar determined clouds around Madras in northeast monsoon season (October-November 1986) was investigated.

 

Six hundred cloud echo samples having area between 50 and 5350 sq. km detected within 200 km radius by a high power S-band radar located at Madras were analysed for the relation between their perimeter and area.

 

Consistency of the relation between the perimeter (P) and area (A) through a log P vs log A plot and of fractal dimensions (D) of cloud perimeter, has been established and conclusions drawn that cloud perimeter conforms to fractal curve.

 

From the regression line of the logP vs logA scatter diagram the mean values of D=I, 30 and S=2.07 were evaluated, where S is the constant of proportionality for the relation P, AD/2. These values have been suggested to be used as, base values for ending out, D values for individual clouds in northeast monsoon season around Madras, for their possible real time use In Identification of clouds having strong horizontal/vertical winds embedded within them, especially In cloud field associated with cyclones.

Authors: PRASAD RAJENDRA , DATAR SV
Published: April 2022

Weekly Aridity Index (AI) based on Thornthwaite's water balance technique has been employed to study the intensification and persistence of. kharif agricultural drought during the southwest monsoon season of 1987, In 33 meteorological sub-divisions of India, by adopting a simple criterion. The periods and areas of maximum intensification and persistence have been identified.

 

The analysis revealed that intensification occurred in only seven sub-divisions confined mostly to the northern and western regions of the country. Persistence was invariably associated with intensification whereas reverse observation was not perceptible. Mixed mode drought persistence was maximum in Rajasthan and Gujarat region. A comparison with meteorological drought, however, revealed that either intensification or persistence of agricultural drought did occur in those sub-divisions that were affected by severe meteorological drought.

Authors: GHADEKAR SR , PATIL VP
Published: April 2022

Water requirement of kharif, rabi and summer grown groundnut was determined following climatological approach. Modified Penman’s model to predict evapotranspiration (ET 0) was employed. Long climatic data of about 40 years (1946-1985) was used In computation. The results showed that water demand of groundnut followed variations in three seasons. Water demand in summer season was highest (913.69 mm) more than double that of rabi groundnut (431 .98 mm) requiring totally Irrigations. In kharlf, crop required 563.83 mm of water and the demand completely met through monsoon rains. Rabi groundnut required lowest water and the demand was met through post monsoon rams, residual soil moisture after monsoon recharge of soil partly and supplementary Irrigations.

Published: April 2022

An attempt is mad~ to establish a relationship between rainfall and runoff. The basic input data are (i) rainfall, (ii) run off and (iii) evapotranspiration. The moisture content prior to rainfall under consideration and after the termination of rainfall is computed by water balance technique this method is applied in small agricultural catchments in Soil Conservation Research Farm at Ballary, Karnataka, which is categorised its semiarid zone of black soil region. The relationship between rainfall and runoff under different initial moisture content and rainfall intensities are found out. Attempts are also made to get relationship between moisture condition of the catchment after the end of rainfall and runoff with rainfall intensities as an additional factor. The estimated runoff obtained from various equations are compared with the observed runoff. The rainfall-runoff relationship with initial moisture content as third parameter gives encouraging results for estimation of runoff.
Spectral model with a regional focus
Authors: MOHAN GYAN
Published: April 2022

A global spectral model with selective high resolution region Is appropriate for the study of a sharp local weather system if it is not very sensitive to the atmospheric state outside a limited active region. If the linear dimension of the resolution required is 1 and the area of active region is A then one finds that an adequate spectral model has the following features: (a) the model pole is moved away from the geographical north and re-located In the Vicinity of the weather system under study, (b) the set of new spherical harmonics ymn as basis functions should have the parallelogrammic truncated range | m | <=n <=N, 0<= | m | <=M, where N~, 2pi a|l.

M|N = 4f(1~f),j=AI(4" a2), where a is the radius of the earth.

 

Since the decomposition of a vector field, in a spherical coordinate system, into the radial and horizontal parts is rotationally invariant, the form of the equations of motion do not change under the re-location of the model pole except for the Coriolis force term. Mathematics of the modelling including truncation and management of non-linear terms do not change.

Widespread thunderstorm activity over northwest India on 26 May 1986- Satellite and synoptic studies
Authors: MANDAL JC
Published: April 2022

The growth and evolution of a persistent mesoscale convective complex have been depicted by INSAT cloud imagery. Using satellite cloud imagery and conventional data, it is possible to identify the area of severe convective activity well in advance, New area of imminent development can be predicted from cloud top temperature contours prepared from infrared cloud imagery, Synoptic, dynamic and thermodynamic analysis have revealed that low-Level convergence, presence of small scale low-level vortex, moisture incursion to the disturbed area, strong surface heating, temperature and moisture contrast, below normal upper air temperature and above normal upper air vertical wind shear are responsible for this development. Persistence may be due to hydro dynamical effect of the environmental flow around the cloud mass and cyclonic flow embedded in it. Upper air divergence field may not be a necessary condition for formation of convective complex.
Towards a Theoretical Framework for a Systematic Study of Theological Influence in Bible Translation
Authors: Liu Chao-Chun
Published: April 2022

Although Bible scholars have generally acknowledged that theology plays an important role in Bible translation, affecting it from beginning to end, no studies have been done to date to offer a systematic, theoretical explanation of this phenomenon, thus leaving this subject a largely unmapped territory for study. As an initial attempt to fill this gap, this paper explores theological influence in Bible translation in terms of its theoretical foundation and seeks to find suitable theoretical concepts from both the fields of translation studies and Biblical translation studies in order to construct a theoretical framework that can be used to sharpen and enrich the study of this phenomenon. The paper first addresses the generally negative or fearful attitude toward the subject and then explores the possibility of applying the theoretical concepts of norms (Toury and Chesterman), narrative (Baker), constraints (Lefevere), “Skopos” (Nord), “contextual frame of reference” (Wendland), and “Bible translation polysystem theory” (Kerr) for developing a theoretically-sound, disciplined, and comprehensive study of theological influence in Bible translation. Convinced that Bible translation is inherently a theological task and it is important to enhance our understanding of the theological nature and dimension of Bible translation for theoretical, pedagogical, and translational purposes, this paper proposes that with these five theoretical frameworks at our disposal, it is possible for the multifaceted theological influence involved in Bible translation to be studied in a more objective and systematic way in order to achieve a greater awareness and understanding of their profound and consequential interrelationships.

The first day of employment starts the promotion and tenure clock. It is the responsibility of the new Extension professional to take immediate steps to move forward with development of programming and application of the skill set that they bring to the job. Finding success in the first year of an Extension appointment revolves around understanding the expectations of the institution and the needs of the stakeholders. Once the institutional expectations and programming needs are understood, formulating a strategy that includes plans of work and logic models, measurement of outcomes and impacts, team building, professional development, peer mentoring, grant writing, and scholarship will provide a foundation for firstyear success in Extension. A willingness to follow a timely and systematic approach to meeting the expectations of the institution and stakeholders will provide for an efficient transition and relieve many of the stressors associated with a new appointment. This paper is based primarily on the author’s first year experience as an Extension faculty member and summarizes several best practices.
Considering Positive Psychology Constructs of Life Satisfaction and School Connectedness When Assessing Symptoms Related to Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Authors: Mancil Emily B. , Bird Jason M. , Lyons Mike , Van Eck Kathryn , Smith Bradley H.
Published: April 2022

Children and adolescents diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) demonstrate significant difficulty with academic and behavioral functioning. This, in turn, can lead to lower educational attainment and vocational achievement, which has serious long-term consequences and costs to individuals and society (Barkley, 2002, 2006; Mannuzza, Klein, Bessler, Malloy, & LaPadula, 1993). Researchers from a positive psychology framework suggest that ADHD symptoms (i.e., inattention, hyperactivity/impulsivity) alone may not fully explain academic impairment (Diener, Scollon, & Lucas, 2004). From the standpoint of positive psychology, life satisfaction and school connectedness are important constructs that examine positive life functioning; however, they have been understudied, particularly in the area of ADHD. The current study investigated the relationship between ADHD symptoms and these positive psychological constructs. Results indicate that as ADHD symptoms increase, life satisfaction decreases; however, no relationship between ADHD symptoms and school connectedness was found. Beyond our primary analysis, we examined the relationship between gender and these variables. Results suggest that gender significantly moderates the relationship between ADHD and life satisfaction, with life satisfaction ratings decreasing for males as ADHD symptoms increase, yet remaining stable for females. ADHD symptoms did not significantly predict changes in school connectedness.

Libo (Ficus varieagata) is a wild plant that has not been utilized in any form, including traditional because it has latex plant fruit and bark, and if the latex on the skin causes itching to occur even irritation. The nature of that causes undesirable fruit so that the fruit-eating animals are well maintained. Libo ripe fruit on the tree will fall to the ground and grow into a mature Libo tree. Potential plant fruiting and fruit continuously disliked fruit-bearing animals that populations of plants Libo maintained and continued to grow. Has conducted numerous studies on fruit Libo relations with pharmaceutical potential and proven potential as a source of antioxidants, cytotoxic or anticancer, larval exterminator A. Aegypti, and as an antibacterial. These potentials can be used as a preservative, an anticancer drug, and a source of antibiotics if the research is done in detail. Libo fruit also contains a group of secondary metabolites that are highly variable so it still allows for other uses in the pharmaceutical field.

Sugarcane industry is of crucial importance to the South Asian countries. These countries depend heavily on agriculture and the sugarcane industry has immense potential to contribute towards its economic development. Hence, the precise and timely forecast of sugarcane production is of concern for farmers, policy makers and other stakeholders. In this manuscript, we strived to forecast the production and growth rate of this important commodity using standard statistical approaches. The ARIMA (Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average) and ETS (Exponential Smoothing) models were applied and compared on the basis of their forecasting efficiency for South Asia countries. This study also investigated the trends in sugarcane production in the region and studies the causes of the decline in production of sugarcane in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Furthermore, the expected production for following 7 years was computed using both models. In addition, we also calculated the projected growth rates of sugarcane production of South Asian countries over the years 2020-2027.

Authors: Buranawong Adisorn , Witit-Anun Nirun
Published: April 2022

The oxidation behavior of reactive DC magnetron sputtered TiN thin films was investigated under annealing temperature ranging from 400 to 700oC in the ambient atmosphere using X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy techniques. The oxidation rate and oxidation activation energy of the films were also calculated from parabolic and Arrhenius relations. The as-deposited film had a polycrystalline TiN structure. After annealing at 450oC, the TiO2 rutile structure was found in the XRD spectra and the relative integrated intensity of the oxide phase increased gradually with temperature. The EDS analysis gave confirmation of XRD patterns, showing the expected increase in O content. Grain growth resulting from grain coalescence occurred through the annealing temperatures. The cross-sectional analysis showed that a very thin dense oxide overlayer was present at 400°C and the oxide thickness increased gradually with temperature. Moreover, the films were fully oxidized into a porous structure after 650oC. The results revealed that the films showed an oxidation rate from 400°C and the oxidation activation energy of films was 156.56 kJ/mol.
OPTIMAL DG PLACEMENT USING FUZZY AND ANT LION ALGORITHM
Authors: sekhar K. Muni
Published: April 2022

This article proposes a novel methodology for placing DG units in electrical distribution systems that incorporates Fuzzy and Ant Lion Algorithms (ALA) in order to minimize power losses and improve the voltage profile. Electrical energy is critical to daily existence. A keen interest in all available sources of energy has resulted in the promotion of generating electrical power using renewable energy sources such as solar, tidal waves, and wind. Due to the growing interest in renewable energy sources in recent years, research on distributed generating integration into the power grid has accelerated. Distributed generation (DG) sources are added to the network primarily to mitigate power losses by supplying a net quantity of energy. To minimize power system line losses, it is critical to establish the amount and placement of local generating. Numerous studies have been conducted to determine the optimal site for dispersed generating. The research employs a fuzzy technique to determine the ideal positions of DG units and a ant lion algorithm based on the intelligent behavior of ant lions to determine the optimal locations and sizes to reduce the losses and to improve the voltage. The proposed approach is written in MATLAB, and the results are provided for 15-bus and 33-bus test systems.

As technology advances faster and also the use of computer systems increases compared to past, cheating may be a growing trend. Misappropriation of another person's work is understood as cheating. Personal detection of cheating is difficult so this process should be automated. There are various tools that may be wont to detect cheating. Some work on internal copying while others work on external copying. data processing could be a field which will help detect cheating and may help improve process efficiency. Various data processing methods is wont to detect cheating. Text digging, merging, bigram, tri-grams, n-grams are ways in which can help during this process. Cheating severely damages the academic process in many ways, while preventing students from developing creativeness and important analysis skills and undermining trust between teachers and students. additionally, if cheating isn't detected, it's going to affect the reputation of the tutorial institution and reduce its values. Therefore, cheating requires discovery. Key Words: technology, data processing, plagiarism, technique.

Social Justice durch die Erforschung von Linguistic Landscape
Authors: Krompák Edina
Published: April 2022

Im Mittelpunkt von Social Justice durch mehrsprachige Bildung stehen die Sprachenpolitik eines Landes, Sprachenhierarchien und der Sprachgebrauch (Skutnabb-Kangas et al. 2009; Piller, 2016). Mehrsprachige Bildung ermöglicht sowohl die Förderung der mehrsprachigen Kompetenzen der Schülerinnen und Schüler als auch die kritische Auseinandersetzung mit den oben genannten Themen. Im Rahmen des vom Bundesamt für Kultur geförderten Praxisprojekts der Pädagogischen Hochschule Schaffhausen «Sprachland – Förderung der Mehrsprachigkeit durch Linguistic Landscape» entdecken die Lernenden die sprachlich-semiotische und die Klanglandschaft ihres Lebensraumes. Linguistic Landscape (LL) befasst sich mit den sichtbaren sprachlichen und semiotischen Zeichen im öffentlichen Raum und stellt Fragen zum Sprachgebrauch und zur Sprachenpolitik des untersuchten Orts bzw. eines bestimmten Stadtviertels (Landry & Bourhis, 1997). Das Projekt setzt sich zum Ziel, die Familiensprachen und die individuelle Mehrsprachigkeit der Schülerinnen und Schüler zu fördern sowie eine enge Zusammenarbeit zwischen den am Projekt Beteiligten zu ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus möchte das Projekt die Potenziale von LL als didaktischem Werkzeug ausschöpfen und Möglichkeiten ihrer Verwendung für eine sozial gerechte sprachliche Bildung eröffnen.
À l’école, les filles sont-elles systématiquement interrompues ?
Authors: Carvalho Bárbara
Published: April 2022

L’article présente les résultats d’une étude portant sur les interruptions intrusives de la parole des filles en milieu scolaire. Se basant sur un corpus d’interactions en classe de français langue première, notre analyse s’est donnée pour objectif l’identification et la description de l’organisation de telles interruptions ainsi que les ressources interactionnelles mobilisées par les participants lors de ces interruptions. Le taux d’interruption de la parole des filles a été identifié, démontrant la systématicité de ce phénomène interactionnel. Dans cette contribution, nous montrerons un exemple d’analyse d’une séquence d’interruption intrusive de la parole des filles et discuterons du taux d’interruption de la parole des filles. Les résultats de cette étude nous invitent à réfléchir sur une possible dévalorisation de la parole (et par conséquent, de la pensée) des filles à l’école et sur l’effet éventuel des interruptions sur l’apprentissage. Nous conclurons par des implications pratiques concernant la construction d’un environnement d’apprentissage équitable en termes de genre.
Opportunities for Anti-Bias Frameworks in Japanese EFL Textbooks
Authors: Efron Kate
Published: April 2022

In Japan, recent Foreign Language Activities (2018-2020) policies have explicated the importance of facilitating multiculturalism and global thinking through education and educational tools, including through the use of textbooks. Accordingly, an Anti-Bias Framework (ABF) is one way for educators to develop learners’ global and cultural identities, as well as learners’ appreciation of human differences. ABFs are of particular relevance in multicultural textbooks and classrooms, as they are used for helping students develop local and international identities, and for helping learners eliminate biases. However, the current EFL textbooks (2018-2020) issued by the Japanese Ministry of Education are not inclusive of ABFs. Consequently, there are numerous missed opportunities for teachers and learners to engage in active anti-bias lessons for the facilitation of global citizenship. This paper seeks to address this gap in the textbooks by discussing opportunities for EFL teachers in Japan (and elsewhere) to use anti-bias frameworks in language and culture education. Elaborating upon the Teaching Tolerance Anti-Bias Framework (2017), this article proposes that EFL students in Japan can develop intercultural competencies and anti-bias thinking through an ABF, and offers suggestions for lesson activities, guided classroom discussions, engagement with local interlocutors, for English language development. While positioned against the backdrop of the Japanese EFL elementary classroom, these suggestions can be adapted to other EFL in-person and online classrooms, as well.

Published: April 2022

In our paper we introduce our model “Structures of Language and Music” and report about a case study in Iceland.We show how language und music education partly draw from similar concepts in either discipline and how theseconcepts may be combined for a deeper understanding of language and music learning both in natural as well asin instructed settings. Looking at data collected in a focus group discussion at the University of Iceland and byobservations in Icelandic music and foreign language classrooms in an inclusive school in Reykjavík we show inthis paper how music and language learning can inspire each other.By understanding the relationship between music and language learning from a more theoretical approachsuggested by our model and its reception by specialists from the music and modern languages departments of theUniversity of Iceland as well as its application to classroom practice, we suggest that our model can make acontribution to language and music education as well as teacher education
ELT and Social Justice in Multilingual Classrooms
Authors: Kapur Kirti
Published: April 2022

The challenge for educators and policy-makers is to ensure that the rights of all school children are respected, and the cultural, linguistic and economic resources of the nation are maximized. Today this is all the more relevant because many languages are becoming endangered and some have actually disappeared from the Indian linguistic landscape despite our claims to multilingualism and maintenance. The loss of a language is equivalent to the loss of an entire culture in itself. The first task of the school becomes relating home language to second language. In this manner more languages can be integrated and there is a movement towards other languages without losing the first and English is not contextualized in a western ambience but is taught through a contextually rich local perspective.
Motivating Performers and Audience to Combat Prejudice Through Readers’ Theater
Authors: Finger Alexis
Published: April 2022

There are very few well-contextualized references to civil rights and activism found in Swiss materials and what learners bring home in their EFL lessons is often over-generalized, if learnt about at all. In local language instruction in Swiss secondary school history lessons, there are occasional units on the United States, but these are often lacking in focus on movements and activism, they focus on basic historical dates and events and do not cover the depth necessary to even plant seeds in learners’ minds to take their understanding even further. Thus, the need to better contextualize in the hopes of creating a deeper understanding of events and of humanity can well be done through current materials such as those being produced for accepting Black Lives Matter not just as a movement but as a standard of living, and another way that is of readers’ theater – an extremely approachable tool for content and language teaching in Swiss secondary and tertiary English language classrooms.
Social Justice as the Hidden Curriculum: Making “Small” Pedagogical Changes to Promote Equity
Authors: Hercula Sarah
Published: April 2022

This article proposes a method for integrating social justice themes—specifically, linguistic (in)equality—within the content of existing courses by harnessing the power of the hidden curriculum. By making “small” changes to their courses and by committing to the study of the effectiveness of such changes, instructors can promote tacit yet impactful messages about the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion that students are likely to carry with them into the future.
