FRAUD TRANSACTION DETECTION FOR ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING SYSTEMS BASED ON DEEP LEARNING
Authors: Pazos Jorge Felix Martínez , González Jorge Gulín , Lorenzo David Batard , Morales Jorge Alejandro Robaina , Alvares Moises Miguel Rodriges
Published: January 2024

This study addresses the escalating problem of financial fraud, with a
particular focus on credit card fraud, a phenomenon that has skyrocketed
due to the increasing prevalence of online transactions. The research
aims to strengthen anti-money laundering (AML) systems, thereby
improving the detection and prevention of fraudulent transactions. For
this study, a Dense Neural Network (DNN) has been developed to predict
fraudulent transactions with high accuracy. The model is based on deep
learning, and given the highly unbalanced nature of the dataset,
balancing techniques were employed to mitigate the bias towards the
minority class and improve performance. The DNN model demonstrated
robust performance, generalizability, and reliability, achieving over
99% accuracy across training, validation, and test sets. This indicates
the model’s potential as a powerful tool in the ongoing fight against
financial fraud. The results of this study could have significant
implications for the financial sector, corporations, and governments,
contributing to safer and more secure financial transactions.
Optimizing Geometric Shapes for a Compact Planar Multiband MIMO Antenna in Vehicular Communications
Authors: Mahmud Tahmin
Published: January 2024

The purpose of this study is to investigate and comprehend the
performance analysis of a compact planar multiband
multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna, accomplished as a part of
the ECE 533: Advanced Antenna Design course at Washington State
University, Vancouver during the Fall 2022 semester. This study has
introduced two symmetrical radiating elements joined by a neutralizing
line to nullify the reactive coupling that makes up the MIMO antenna’s
basic structure. The basic MIMO antenna occupies an overall three
dimensions of 60x80x0.8mm volume on a FR4 substrate
with relative permittivity e=4.40 and loss tangent of
tanδ=0.02. Coplanar waveguide (CPW) transmission lines of 50Ω have been
used to feed the MIMO antenna. Furthermore, the base plane of the basic
MIMO antenna has four slits and two compact rectangles of
2x12mm cut into it to compensate the mutual coupling.
The slit width, neutralizing line, substrate material, and its thickness
have all been tuned in the proposed techniques to analyze different
antenna parameters. The operating frequency band has been set to
500MHz-3500MHz for all the four cases. By employing simulation results
obtained from the ANSYS HFSS environment, the performance of the
fundamental MIMO antenna is evaluated and assessed against the optimized
models. The optimized versions of the conventional MIMO antenna design
have been thoroughly discussed in separate case studies. From our
software simulation analysis, we find that optimized geometric shapes of
the compact planar MIMO antenna show significant improvement in the
isolation parameter of |S|, from
<= 14.9 dB to <= 18.44 dB, <= 20 dB and up
to <=27.68 dB for ease of understanding, no servicing
frequencies have been predetermined.
Global History through the Lens of Intellectual History
Authors: Rosenboim Or
Published: January 2024

This article explores the evolving discourse surrounding global history. While historians initially embraced global history as essential for comprehending a globalised world, recent debates have questioned its desirability and feasibility. The author examines the intersection of global history with intellectual history, discussing the establishment of dedicated publications—such as the journal Global Intellectual History—and evaluating the three heuristic approaches proposed in the volume edited by Samuel Moyn and Andrew Sartori in 2013 (universalist interpretations, comparativist perspectives, and investigations into networks and interactions across space). The author highlights challenges such as translatability and the dominance of English-language scholarship. The article concludes with a call for a critical examination of the ‘global’ as a concept, acknowledging the need for reflectivity, collaborative efforts, and a nuanced understanding of historical contexts in shaping the future of global history.

Investigating Students’ Writing Skills in Generating Descriptive Texts: Experiences Learned from English for Specific Purposes (ESP) Contexts in Privates Universities
Authors: Saori Sopian , Sugianto Sugianto , Christian Badilo Kim
Published: January 2024

Writing occupies a paramount role in the conveyance of ideas, demanding a profound comprehension of the nuances integral to crafting impeccable written compositions. The research under consideration was undertaken with the objective of delving into the writing skills of students and discerning the challenges they encounter in composing descriptive texts. Employing a mixed-method approach, the study engaged English learners at STIE AMM Mataram, constituting a cohort of 28 students. To attain a comprehensive understanding of their writing abilities and difficulties, the research employed writing tests and interviews as research instruments. The research outcomes revealed a mean score of 69.92 for the students, indicative of a concerning trend of inadequate proficiency in writing descriptive texts, essentially categorizing their abilities as 'poor.' A closer examination of the data delineated specific performance distributions among the students: 12% garnered scores below 60, designating them as 'poor,' while 40% fell within the 61-70 score range, also categorized as 'poor.' Moreover, 36% secured scores in the 71-80 range, positioning them in the 'average' category, and a mere 12% earned scores designated as 'very good. Vocabulary and organization stood out with ratings categorized as 'good to average,' showcasing relative strengths. Conversely, content, grammar, and mechanics were characterized by a 'fair to poor' categorization, underscoring significant areas of difficulty. In particular, students grappled with challenges concerning grammar, content development, and mechanical aspects of writing. In light of these findings, it is evident that students encounter multifaceted difficulties, particularly in the realms of grammar, content creation, and mechanics. As a viable solution, it is recommended that English teachers prioritize providing students with ample opportunities for writing practice. These opportunities should be designed to specifically enhance content development and grammar proficiency in writing descriptive texts.

Authors: Zurriatinnisa Syasfia
Published: January 2024

This study aims to determine students' difficulties in working on PISA-like mathematical problems on shape and space content based on van Hiele's level of thinking. This type of research was descriptive with a qualitative approach. The research subjects comprised 6 class X at High School in Mataram using VHGT instruments and PISA-like problems. The students' answers were thoroughly examined through in-depth interviews. Data analysis was performed using the Miles and Huberman model with data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification steps. The results showed that students were at the visualization, analysis, and informal deduction levels of thinking. The difficulties experienced by students at the visualization level were the same as students at the analysis level, which is found in several aspects such as language comprehension, visual perception, knowledge transfer, and numeracy. The difficulties of students with informal deduction thinking levels occur in 3 aspects: visual perception, knowledge transfer, and counting ability. Language comprehension includes students' understanding or confusion of the meaning of the problem and students' ability to convert the problem into mathematical form. Difficulties in the visual perception aspect of students relate to students' ability to visualize mathematical concepts in the problem. The knowledge transfer aspect focuses on how students connect existing ideas, and the numeracy aspect is related to students' ability to operate numbers.

Os resultados do presente estudo reforçam a importância de identificar e caracterizar o perfil dessa população que faleceu por neurotuberculose, favorecendo uma reflexão sobre a importância da prestação de cuidados em todas as áreas e níveis de atenção, para prevenção e centralização das ações de cuidado de enfrentamento com este problema.
FATORES DE RISCO PARA O DESENVOLVIMENTO DE LESÃO POR PRESSÃO EM PACIENTES EM UNIDADE DE TERAPIA INTENSIVA
Authors: Santos Widson Silva Gama dos
Published: January 2024

O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar através de levantamento bibliográfico o risco de Lesão Por Pressão (LPP) em pacientes internados nas Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (UTI), identificando seus riscos relacionados e analisando as principais medidas de prevenção e a importância da assistência de enfermagem.  Estudo qualitativo de caráter descritivo cujo instrumento utilizado para sua elaboração foi uma revisão de literatura, buscando atingir ao objetivo proposto. A LPP é caracterizada por alteração na pele, normalmente próxima a regiões de proeminências ósseas, onde ocorre uma pressão que não foi atenuada. O desenvolvimento da lesão se dá por intermédio de determinantes etiológicos críticos, como a intensidade e a duração da pressão associada a tolerância dos tecidos para suportar determinada pressão exercida. Os fatores de riscos são: Mobilidade e atividade comprometida, percepção sensorial, fatores que reduzem a tolerância tissular (extrínsecos e intrínsecos). A prevenção é um desafio para toda a equipe e um cuidado indispensável, devido ao trabalho necessário e os altos custos para lidar com as consequências do surgimento. A equipe de enfermagem conta na prevenção com alguns instrumentos de avaliação de risco como a escala de Braden que ajuda a identificar o paciente em risco e também os fatores de risco que estão associados auxiliando na tomada de decisões para o planejamento das medidas preventivas individualizadas. É importante a realização de novos estudos sobre o tema para ajudar na prevenção e tratamento de LPP, assim incentivando a busca de novas pesquisas, com intuito sempre de informar sobre as devidas atualizações do determinado assunto, trazendo benefícios para os leitores em busca de inovação, e da saúde em si.

Este artigo discute a inclusão de indígenas surdos nas escolas de educação básica e o ensino bilíngue. Como objetivo geral optou-se por levantar e dar visibilidade as práticas desenvolvidas em algumas regiões do Brasil referente à inclusão de alunos indígenas surdos na educação formal, especificamente os anos inicias e finais do ensino fundamental. O método utilizado foi o dialético que implica sempre em revisão e reflexão crítica. Os dados foram analisados a partir das referências Libras, indígena surdo e bilinguismo, tendo como base o método Histórico Cultural de Vigotski (2007). Os resultados mostram que há sinais compartilhados pelos surdos nas aldeias, por eles criados e que fazem parte da sua própria Língua. Conclui-se que é necessário identificar os elementos culturais que constituem sua identidade, bem como os contextos em que emergem os sinais linguísticos surdos próprios à cultura e como se legitimam e entrelaçam com a Língua de Sinais Brasileira.

A partir da constatação da importância da leitura para a formação de estudantes surdos, o objetivo deste estudo é observar as ações desenvolvidas nas bibliotecas do Sistema Integrado das Bibliotecas da UFG (SIBI). Por meio de questionário, aplicado aos servidores da SIBI e alunos surdos, desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa sobre o atendimento de usuários surdos. A metodologia da pesquisa também abordou a leitura bibliográfica e consultas aos sites e ambientes do SIBI, para entendermos quais as ações desenvolvem e se nestas a acessibilidade está presente. De acordo com a pesquisa, os servidores das bibliotecas do SIBI desejam receber qualificações e serem habilitados para tornarem os ambientes mais acessíveis, pois os mesmos os limitam a não realizar eventos culturais ou ações de inclusão para atenderem aos surdos. Porém, de acordo com os entrevistados, nota-se a falta de qualificação e motivação para que os servidores possam promover tais ações de cunho articulado à acessibilidade dos surdos.

DEMOCRATIZAÇÃO DA EDUCAÇÃO DE SURDOS A PARTIR DA LITERATURA SURDA:
Authors: Felix Silva Erliandro , Ferreira Ribeiro Valquíria , Regina e Souza Campello Ana
Published: January 2024

A Literatura Surda pode ser entendida como aportes identitários-culturais produzidos a partir dos registros impressos ou em vídeo de manifestações tipicamente relacionadas à comunidade surda. Em nosso país a língua reconhecidamente utilizada por essa comunidade é a Libras. Desenvolvemos uma pesquisa de cunho qualitativo que reflete a importância da educação bilíngue de surdos com a utilização da Literatura Surda, que possibilita reflexões sobre as dificuldades passadas pelos surdos quanto à exclusão, barreiras linguísticas, preconceito e patologização da surdez. Expressa a partir de piadas, poemas, slams, adaptações e criações de histórias, sobretudo infantis, a Literatura Surda enfoca o estímulo visual e pode compor positivamente a apropriação da Libras como primeira língua das crianças surdas, desde os primeiros anos da escolarização. Nossos resultados apontam que a democratização da educação de surdos no país não será alcançada senão sem luta, debates e avanço das produções relativas a esse tipo de literatura.

Authors: Jovita Gabriella Alodia
Published: January 2024

The realization of investments in Indonesia has surpassed 23.3% of the targeted amount for the year 2023, indicating a gradual economic recovery. This creates an opportunity for companies to attract more investors. The high level of investment is followed by certain responsibilities named Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) within their operational businesses. The implementation of ESG in Indonesia is further supported by the Indonesia Government through the Financial Services Authority Regulation No. 51/POJK.03/0217 and the establishment of the Carbon Exchange regulation in 2023. The objective of this study is to discern the influence of company ESG scores on companies’ performance, measured through ROE and its capital structured, measured by DER. ESG data were obtained through access to Refinitiv Eikon, incorporating data from all sub-points within the three ESG aspects. The study population is companies listed on the Kompas100 index. Under the purposive sampling method, twenty-six companies have disclosed their ESG and financial data for the year 2017-2022. Statistical processing of data was conducted using SEM-PLS. The study concludes that E, S, and G scores individually influence ROE but do not have any significant impact on DER. This study offers insight to assist companies in formulating ESG implementation strategies, with a focus on environmental innovation for E aspect, product responsibility for the S aspect, and shareholder considerations for the G aspect.

Published: January 2024

This book has been a recent addition to the University Library, Benghazi, authored by Mr. Syed Ahmed Aly B.Sc. (econ.) London, and F.R. Econs and who is now on the academic staff of the Libyan University, Faculty of Commerce.

The author joined the Patna University in 1941. He has toured the Middle East, Europe, Canada, U.S.A., moreover, he served with the International Commission in Loas and wrote an interesting "Econormc Report on Laos'

To Mr. Syed Ali, Humanism and Islam are interchangeable. He felt the lack of a book about Islam that dealt fairly with the subject, based on the study of the Koran, its commentaries and reliable traditions. He has spared no effort, time or money to dig for the facts, his criteria being quality, authenticity and reasonableness of material. His aim is to present the pure Islamic thought in social and economic matters. He sees Islam as neither patterned after anv economic norm, nor based on laissez-faire theory or totalitarianism. The author seeks to prove his theory that Islam can serve the purpose of a modern social and economic system.

He traces Islam through the ages since its dawn in the 7th Century. Chapter Two deals with the foundation of social and economic order, giving an account of its postulates, Chapter Three presents a resumé of the struggle for existence. Man is taught to adiust himself to nature

أثر تذبذب شمال الأطلسي على الأمطار في منطقة طبرق للفترة (1985 – 2018م)
Authors: محمد محمود سليمان د. محمود
Published: January 2024

تناول هذا البحث تأثير تذبذب شمال الأطلسي (North Atlantic Oscillation) على كميات الأمطار في منطقة طبرق الواقعة في القسم الشمالي الشرقي من ليبيا، وللتعرف على العلاقة بين المتغيرين تم تتبع السجل الشهري لكل من مؤشر (NAO) وكميات الأمطار في محطة طبرق للفترة 1985 – 2018. وأشارت النتائج الإحصائية إلى وجود ارتباط إيجابي ضعيف وعلاقة طردية موجبة ضعيفة لا تُذكر بين كميات الأمطار و فترات (NAO) السلبية في أغلب الأشهر، و علاقة طردية موجبة متوسطة خاصة في شهري أبريل و ديسمبر، و أوضحت الدراسة أن معظم الشهور و السنوات التي يقل أو يزيد فيها الهطول بالمنطقة ليس لها علاقة بظاهرة (NAO).

    وعلى الرغم من وجود ارتفاع نسبي في المؤشر السلبي لـ (NAO) خلال عدة أشهر متتالية من فصل الشتاء و في سنوات متفرقة إلا انه لم يكن هناك أثر على زيادة كميات الأمطار بالمحطة، كما يظهر ذلك واضحاً خلال عام 2010، لا سيما تأثير ضعيف على شهور سبتمبر و أكتوبر و نوفمبر و ديسمبر عام 2009. وبصورة عامة خلال المواسم الانتقالية (الربيع والخريف) كانت هناك علاقة طردية ضعيفة بين المتغيرين خاصة في شهور مارس و أبريل و نوفمبر، و ظل فصل الصيف دون أثر يذكر على مدار الثلاثة عقود الماضية.

A composition of “Difron-4102” depressor additive and С-1+“Difron-4201”=28:1 (code name – AI-1) against paraffin sedimentation was developed for the first time. The decrease of the freezing temperature and surface tension, their effect on a sample of the paraffin oil from Bulla-deniz field was studied in laboratory conditions. It was defined that the composition of AI-1 shows higher effectiveness compared to the “Difron-4102” depressor additive. Thus, in an optimum concentration, when the highest effect is observed, the impact of the additive and composition is equal to 96.3 %, against paraffin sedimentation - 97.8 %, 1.6-2 times by freezing temperature, and 2.1-3.2 by the surface tension as well. Moreover, the effect of “Difron-4102” depressor additive and redeveloped AI-1 composition on the dynamic viscosity of the oil sample from Bulla-deniz field was studied. It was specified that the dynamic viscosity of the oil decreases as the concentration of the additive and composition increases. The highest drop occurred in an optimum concentration of the agents. Thus, the oil viscosity in 900 g/t additive decreases from 21.6 Pa·s up to 0.9 Pa·s, and in 700 g/t composition – up to 0.3 Pa·s.

Published: January 2024

The authors suggest a simple environmental-friendly method to obtain the additives with anticorrosion and washing properties. Described method is based on the interaction of hydroxides of the alkaline-earth metals with carboxymethylamine-methylalkylphenol obtained via the reaction of the industrial alkylphenol with formaldehyde and the aminoacetic acid. The effect of synthesized compounds – calcium and barium salts of carboxymethylamine-methylalkylphenol on the anticorrosion and washing properties of ДС -11 oil has been studied. It was established that they show high anticorrosion and washing performance. In 2.5% concentration of the additive, the corrosion of ДС -11oil is eliminated. The compounds studied do not worsen other properties including the viscosity index and freezing temperature of studied ДС -11 oil. It was revealed that the composition from barium salts of carboxymethylamine-methylalkylphenol and ИХП-21 additive shows high anticorrosion, antioxidation and washing properties as well.

Authors:   Azerbaijan State University of Oil and Industryof Baku, Azerbaijan, Mukhtarova Kh.Z.
Published: January 2024

The article discusses the influence of structural-tectonic aspects on the formation, distribution and prospects of oil and gas potential of non-structural traps in the oil and gas regions of Azerbaijan. For this, the surfaces of the Baikal basement, Mesozoic and Maikop deposits of the region were modeled and analyzed. Modeling revealed a submeridional uplift, i.e. a positive tectonic element between the Kura and South Caspian basins began to develop in Maykop. This strongly influenced folding and especially the formation of non-structural traps in the region. As a result of the analyzes carried out, the geotectonic features of the formation of non-structural traps were substantiated, on the basis of which an appropriate map of their distribution was compiled and the prospects of deposits formed in these traps were assessed.

During the development of heterogeneous reservoirs as a result of unimpeded water filtration from highly permeable formations, premature watering of wells occurs. Increase of water in the composition of well products leads to premature failure of oilfield equipment, reduction of the time between repairs, additional costs during production of well products and, along with these, to loss of oil. Various technologies and compositions are used to prevent well watering. Short-term technological efficiency, limited ability to regulate the isolation process and high prices of reagents reduce the efficiency of compositions implementation. In order to increase the efficiency of isolation of water inflow into the well, to block high permeable and involvement in the development of low-permeable oil zones of the reservoir, laboratory tests of a new composition based on the use of a solution of 9–10 % sodium silicate and 10–12 % hydrochloric acid have been carried out. The composition developed for the purpose of isolation of water inflow into the well has a possibility to regulate both the process of gel formation and time. The composition was tested in field conditions and positive results were obtained.
Lubricants

Published: January 2024

The article indicates that lubricating materials include lubricating oils and lubricants. The majority of lubricating materials are lubricating oils, of which only 8 % are lubricants. Lubricants are divided into solid, gaseous and grease (semisolid). Of the lubricants, greases are the most widely used. In the production of lubricants as a liquid base various mineral, vegetable and synthetic oils were used. Lubricants are preferred over oils. In some cases plastic lubricants can replace lubricating oils. Analysis of scientific, technical and patent literature showed the main directions in the development of lubricants. These include: widely used “Lithium” lubticants, nanosized particles and graphene as additives to lubricants, high-alkaline calcium lubricants, and others. Research and development work related to lubricants is also underway at the Institute of Chemistry of Additives after acad. A.M. Guliyev.

The article discusses the possibilities of using synergetics to improve the efficiency of economic processes. The importance and necessity of applying the concept of “synergistic approach” in the innovative economy is especially emphasized, as a result of the direct impact of synergetics in three different areas (synergetics – in economy, economical synergy and synergistical economy) on the economic processes, existing in society. According to connection with the volatility of the modern economic situation, it is indicated that economic analysis is more effective and expedient on the basis of synergistic rather than a classical approach.
Hydraulic losses in cryogenic pipelines

Published: January 2024

Pressure losses in cryogenic pipelines for cases of monophasity of the flow are defined by known formulas of hydraulics for ordinary viscous liquids. The movement of the two-phase flow is much complicated by the hydraulic calculation of the cryogenic pipeline. There are basically three types of cryogenic flow movement in the pipelines. The first type is characterized by a sufficiently uniform distribution of the gas phase over the entire volume of the flow (homogeneous gas-liquid mixture). The second type is characterized by sections of gas and liquid (projectile structure). The third type is characterized by the movement of liquid along the annular section at the walls of the pipe and gas with a higher speed in its central part. In the absence of heat exchange with the environment, when pressure losses are associated with gravity and friction, the calculation formulas are offered in the paper for hydraulic calculation of multiphase cryogenic pipelines.
