This questionnaire consists of three parts: first, the demographic characteristics of students agreed to participate in the present study; Second part contains 16 items represents the psychological problems and the third part is supposed to measure the physical problems and contains 11 items. Levels of severity of problems were determined by using the quartiles step. The data of the study were analysed by applying descriptive data analysis: frequencies, percentages and tables of distribution; and inferential data analysis: Pearson coefficient correlation and Chi square, using the statistical analysis program of SPSS 19th version. Results: The present study reveals that more than half of the students are 20 and 21 years old; the majority of them are unmarried; one third of the sample are from the first class; more than three quarters have different levels of severity of psychological and physical problems distributed among slight level to the levels which interrupt the daily activities and/ or change the life style. The study has not found any differences between married and unmarried students. Also, the study does not find significant association between demographic characteristics and psychological problems but there is a significant relationship between the study stage and physical problems and age and psycho-physical problems. Recommendations: The present study recommends that medical and health follow up for students with levels which interrupt the daily activities and/ or change the life style of those students. Further studies concerning the impact of psychological and physical problems upon the academic achievement and also upon social relationship and the way the student deals with her family and society. Further studies aimed to discover the mood fluctuations which might result to suicidal ideation.
Cash Waqf for Public Health Expenditure
Authors:   Putra Business School, Selangor, Malaysia, NOR NOR AKMAR MOHD , SARIB NORHANIM MAT ,   Putra Business School, Selangor, Malaysia
Published: July 2023

Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic and economic crisis have imposed constraints on government spending and increased borrowing to redevelop the economy. Thus, there is a need for alternative funding sources to ease the government's financial burden. Cash waqf has the potential to finance public health sector expenditures. Additionally, giving behavior plays a significant role in establishing cash waqf funds and ensuring the sustainability of waqf institutions. This paper examines the views of the public, specifically Muslims in the Klang Valley, Malaysia, regarding cash waqf and their willingness to contribute to it as an alternative financing method for public healthcare expenditures. The research framework combines variables from the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and additional variables such as attitude, perceived behavioral control, religiosity, and trust in waqf institutions. The study finds that Muslims in the Klang Valley are aware of and willing to contribute to cash waqf for public health expenditure, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study further reveals that attitude and perceived behavioral control are significant factors influencing their intention to contribute. These findings can encourage relevant authorities to consider cash waqf as an alternative financing source for public health expenditures, benefiting both Muslims and non-Muslims.
Investigating the Institutional Quality Integration with Islamic Banking ‎Development in Promoting Entrepreneurship
Authors:   University of Management and Technology, Lahore, SOHAIL HADIA , ARSHAD NOMAN ,   University of Education, Lahore
Published: July 2023

Empirically, conventional finance has proven insufficient while providing the ‎required finance for startups and entrepreneurs. While handling the risks, ‎entrepreneurs tend to avoid the high-cost nature of the debt, which limits their ‎true potential leading to sub-optimal resource utilization. For this, Islamic finance ‎provides a participative and equitable alternative for new ventures with proven ‎merits, but a lack of regulation hinders its penetration among entrepreneurial ‎aspirants. This study investigates how Islamic finance assists entrepreneurial ‎decisions and the role of institutional quality in aligning Islamic law with ‎commercial law requirements. This study selected the unbalanced panel data of 37 ‎countries between 2011 and 2020 and used panel quantile regression to estimate ‎the quadratic Islamic financial development effects and the moderation of ‎institutional quality. The results showed that generally, Islamic financial ‎development has a U-shaped relation with entrepreneurship, but with the ‎improvement in institutions, the U shape is flipped to inverted-U shape. This study ‎points toward the potential of Islamic financing when coupled with better ‎regulations for the economies which are developing the nascent Islamic financing ‎system.

Published: July 2023

The present study aims to highlight the issues related to the growth of Islamic ‎Banking. Because of various modes of Islamic banking, the banking system is ‎growing not only in Muslim countries but also in non-muslim countries. Likewise, ‎Islamic banking is also growing in Pakistan in terms of its market capitalization as ‎well as its banking accounts. However, despite the dominance of Muslims in the ‎Islamic Republic of Pakistan, the growth of Islamic banking is not up to ‎expectations. The present study aims to highlight the issues that create hurdles in ‎the growth of Islamic banking. Based on the survey from the users and non-users ‎of banking, the study postulates the reasons for the slow growth of Islamic ‎banking. This study analyzes the customers’ perception and awareness level ‎towards the IBI. It further investigates the relationship between different ‎demographic variables and the perception and awareness of customers. A sample of ‎‎267 respondents from different regions of Muzaffarabad was selected. For the ‎analysis, descriptive statistics & Logistic regression was adopted to check the ‎relationship between demographic variables and perception and awareness. The ‎respondents expressed their perception of some of the services and expressed ‎dissatisfaction with few. Customers indicate that they are aware of different ‎products but do not adopt these products‎.

Strengthening Peace and Economic Cooperation in South Asia
Authors:   Foundation University Rawalpindi, Rehman Muhammad
Published: July 2023

Conflict resolution proponents consider economic integration the silver bullet. Politically stable states in Europe and Southeast Asia are currently united under a single flag. While "monetary inclusion" is sometimes cited as a means toward stability, this is not always the case. But a unified currency is not necessarily the key to peaceful coexistence. This article will examine South Asia to see if and how much monetary settlement has aided in maintaining peace in that region. Despite attempts to bring nations together in South Asia through peace and monetary reconciliation, these efforts have been mostly ignored. Entombment and interstate strife are major contributors to this problem. While this article focuses on provincial financial partnerships as a means of promoting development and peace in South Asia, it argues that the legacy of state structures in the region effectively preempts any such provincial involvement. The religious and socioeconomic tensions that fuel the political turmoil in South Asia portend a bleak future for the area. In light of recent events, it would appear that praying for a peaceful synthesis and permanent peace in South Asia through reconciliation is naive.

Minimal Media Art – Minimal Music (Steve Reich)
Authors: Leitner Birgit Maria
Published: July 2023

Der Text befasst sich mit vier minimalistischen Produktionen aus der aktuellen Medienkunst (Themen: Schwarmbewegungen, Tanz, moderne Kunst u. a.). In ihnen korreliert das phase shifting der Musik von Steve Reich von 1967 mit neuartigen Visualisierungsformen und –technologien. Das Zusammenspiel von digitaler Identität und analoger Differenz mit ihren klanglichen und visuellen Polyrhythmiken und patterns führt zu „entropischen Verschiebungen“, die ungewöhnliche „psycho-physische Effekte“ bewirken. Die mit den prozessualen Systemen einhergehende ästhetische Erfahrung wird in eine „Architektonik des Sinns“ der Moderne des 21. Jahrhunderts eingebettet.

The paper deals with four minimalist productions on the field of actual media art (themes: covey movements, dance, modern art etc.). With them the phase shifting of Steve Reich’s music from 1967 correlates with novel visualisations and technologies. The interplay of digital identity and analogue difference with its acoustic and visual polyrhythms and patterns leads to “entropic shiftings”, which cause unusual “psycho-physical effects”. The aesthetical experience of the process-related systems is embedded into an architecture of sense of modernity in the 21st century.

Authors:   Symbiosis Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability (SCCCS), Symbiosis International (Deemed University), Pune, Maharashtra, India, Pawar Divyanshu
Published: July 2023

This article discusses the concept of campus biodiversity initiative using the efforts of Symbiosis International University as a model system. It also indicates how campuses can contribute to the biodiversity conservation mission of Govt. of India, focusing on Campus Biodiversity conservation initiatives. As we know, a large chunk of green spaces and land cover is a part of Institutional and academic campuses, and campus biodiversity has a significant role. If appropriately managed, campus biodiversity may support as much, if not more, as any other urban green space and can be effectively maintained. Symbiosis International University can be taken as a model to replicate in other institutions. We also look at the gaps that are currently present in policy and possible solutions. Campuses should be managed periodically since they provide a vital breathing space for growing biodiversity

The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of Over-The-Top (OTT) users and the impact of OTT platforms on their body modification choices (hair colouring, body tattooing and body piercing). It was also aimed to analyse awareness about the medical risks or complications associated with these choices. An online survey was conducted for 3 months (November, 21 to January, 22) predominantly in Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and minorly in other states of India. The variables considered in the study were demographics, choice of OTT platforms and time spent on them as viewers, characteristics of hair colouring, body tattoos and piercings, decision-making process before opting for such body modification choices, and knowledge or awareness about the risks associated with them. The Chi-square test was used for testing intergroup comparisons. A positive correlation was found between the time spent on OTT platforms and the level of anxiety or restlessness felt by respondents when they were not able to watch the content on such platforms. A positive correlation was also found between the time spent on OTT platforms and the inspiration taken by the respondents from them while deciding on their next look (r = 0.094). Based on the results obtained from the study, it was found that the prevalence of OTT platforms has gained immense popularity, and 83.6% of respondents were found to be OTT users. Interestingly, 89.6% and 75% of the respondents were aware of the health risks associated with body modification choices like hair colouring and body tattooing, respectively.

The SARS-CoV-2-induced pandemic initially began as a local viral outbreak in Wuhan in late December 2019. Thereafter, it rapidly spread to the remaining parts of the globe, causing substantial psychosomatic disorders and socioeconomic disruption. Consequently, millions of lives have been lost due to the ongoing pandemic. Furthermore, common people have also been at the receiving end, and continue to struggle daily on multiple fronts of sustenance, existence, and survival. To date, there has not been the successful development of effective therapeutic drugs (except for a few prophylactic vaccines) to contain this pandemic. Therefore, focus on non-pharmacological interventions, including spread of public health awareness, and inculcating good practices and attitudes among the general population, have become crucial at this juncture, facilitating the transition from pandemic to post- pandemic life. Here, we conducted a questionnaire-based survey to evaluate COVID-19-related knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of the general population residing in and around Delhi, the National capital of India, involving a random sample of 521 participants. Our comprehensive data analyses unravel a statistically significant (p < 0.05) disparity in knowledge, attitude, and practices about COVID-19 in the general population based on contrasting variables, such as gender, educational qualification, location, and economic background. This highlights the crucial need for removing significant disparity concerning basic COVID-19 knowledge by communicating evidence-based information through regular educational programs and awareness campaigns to help the community and common people in fighting against the ongoing pandemic.

When I started programming a few years ago, one of my first projects was linked to a project for school. Our team was making a presentation, and at some point I decided I wanted to program it myself, for the web. This resulted in the version of a project which, to this day, doesn't have a name (but soon will have). After a few months I wanted to expand this. With some research and trial and error in the area of CSS 3D Transforms, I made a program similar to impress.js. Regular slides, in the web, in 3D, but with some unique things.

Roberto Machado, Gilles Deleuze e a filosofia
Authors: De Toledo Barbosa Mariana
Published: July 2023

Neste artigo, buscarei apresentar as principais teses de “Deleuze, a arte e a filosofia”, versão revista e ampliada de “Deleuze e a filosofia”, de Roberto Machado, o primeiro livro sobre Deleuze no Brasil, e um dos primeiros no mundo. São elas: 1) a questão que move o pensamento deleuziano é “O que significa pensar?”; 2) Deleuze constrói a sua filosofia a partir de uma relação peculiar com a história da filosofia e com pensadores de outros domínios, como a ciência e a arte; 3) Deleuze faz mais uma geografia do pensamento do que uma história da filosofia, estabelecendo dois espaços antagônicos do pensamento, da representação e da diferença, utilizando a diferença como critério de seleção de seus aliados na tarefa de composição do espaço da diferença; 4) a singularidade de sua filosofia se deve ao seu procedimento, que pode ser abordado como uma colagem ou um teatro filosófico. A exposição dessas teses será entremeada com anedotas na tentativa de trazer ao leitor a presença do professor e filósofo Roberto Machado, que, ao encarnar os conceitos em seu próprio corpo, parecia transmitir uma vida intensa a eles, e a todos nós que o ouvíamos.
Nosso enredamento nas “armadilhas da linguagem”: notas sobre o papel da linguagem na crítica nietzschiana da subjetividade

O presente artigo analisa a crítica de Nietzsche da subjetividade e sua relação com o problema da linguagem, tal como ela se desenvolve na última fase da obra nietzschiana, buscando demonstrar que a linguagem possui um papel crucial no entendimento da crítica da subjetividade, da consciência, de uma noção fixa metafísica do sujeito moderno, buscando apontar, de maneira breve, a forma como tal projeto se articula com o legado aberto pela crítica da razão de Immanuel Kant, que em Nietzsche se dá, de maneira particular, intermediado pela filosofia de Arthur Schopenhauer.
Circo al sur. Un recorrido por los procesos de institucionalización del circo en Uruguay de cara al siglo XXI
Authors: Alonso Virginia
Published: July 2023

Este trabajo realizó un recorrido por algunos procesos de institucionalización que las artes circenses vienen atravesando en las últimas décadas en Uruguay. Si bien su presencia como campo artístico es de larga y variada trayectoria, es recién en los últimos años que se inicia un camino por el cual el circo es estudiado, investigado y sistematizado. Este proceso no sucede de manera aislada, sino que es producto del recorrido particular de esta práctica desde finales de los años 90. Esto se relaciona, entre otros factores, con la consolidación de procesos educativos de carácter comunitario en alianzas con políticas culturales y educativas, con su incorporación en el ámbito universitario y con la conformación de redes que organizan y articulan reclamos del sector frente a las políticas estatales de apoyo a la cultura. Se abordó para este trabajo en particular el caso del circo en la Asociación civil El Picadero y en el Instituto Superior de Educación Física de la Universidad de la República (ISEF-Udelar).

Authors: Scalari Rodrigo Cardoso
Published: July 2023

O artigo é oriundo de minha pesquisa de doutorado sobre a criança como modelo na pedagogia teatral. Evidenciam-se relações tácitas entre a criança e o clown no pensamento de Jacques Copeau e a maneira pela qual a criança se torna um modelo para a aprendizagem da linguagem clownesca nas pedagogias de Jacques Lecoq e de Philippe Gaulier. Objetiva-se a problematização de lugares comuns sobre a relação criança-clowna partir de um diálogo com diferentes disciplinas (antropologia, psicanálise, psicologia, performance studies), em busca de uma compreensão expandida de noções como inocência, autenticidade, singularidade e criatividade na formação do clown dentro da tradição teatral francesa de Copeau-Lecoq-Gaulier.

A criação de corpos em experiência no espetáculo autoficcional Casa Vazia
Authors: Morais Gabriel
Published: July 2023

“Uma casa, cinco atuantes, 24 horas: chegue quando puder, saia quando quiser” – essa era a sinopse do espetáculo autoficcional Casa Vazia, trabalho que se insere na zona de contágio entre teatralidade e performatividade e aposta tanto em uma relação espaço-temporal não convencional, como na proximidade radical entre performers e espectadores. A partir de materiais do processo, entrevistas com o elenco e revisão bibliográfica, o artigo investiga de quais maneiras Casa Vazia se estabeleceu como um campo estético-político potente de criação de corpos que vibram, isto é, corpos em experiência, através da circulação, agenciamento e negociação de afetos, memórias e desejos entre atuantes, espectadores, o espaço da casa e o território da cidade. O trabalho contribui com reflexões sobre os modos de operação da cena contemporânea, com destaque para a oscilação entre cena e não-cena e a experimentação de relações não tradicionais entre performers e espectadores.
A voz na cena contemporânea: a preparação vocal em montagens brasilienses de peças curtas de Beckett
Authors: Rocha Valéria Cristina Machado
Published: July 2023

O presente artigo pretende apontar alguns dos aspectos que se estabeleceram na cena teatral a partir de transformações e revoluções pós-final do século XIX, período no qual pôde ser observado o entrelaçamento entre artes plásticas, música, dança, cinema, vídeo e performance, oportunizando uma pluralidade estética que transborda e excede o texto dramático. Tais experimentações estimularam novos modos de compreender como a voz emancipou-se de uma compilação de signos vinculados ao texto dramático, reverberando em novos modos de acionamento para as práticas e poéticas que tangenciam a voz. A partir desse panorama, serão apresentados relatos das práticas vocais na montagem de algumas peças curtas do autor irlandês Samuel Beckett desenvolvidas com intérpretes de Brasília.

Authors: Bulandari Desty , Widodo  , Yulianto Bayu Asih
Published: July 2023

The increasing demand for and investment in energy production from offshore oil and gas sources in Southeast Asian countries, including Indonesia, has increased the risk of offshore oil spills. This study aimed to describe offshore oil spill response to achieve maritime security in Indonesia. This research is qualitative with findings without going through statistical testing and collecting data sources through library research. Data were analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verifying. Environmental, maritime security, mainly from pollution, is classified as the closest part to the marine safety dimension, which aims to protect the marine environment and the blue economy-related to aquatic resources. Oil spills can cause substantial economic losses and endanger ecological systems and community health. The shortcomings in handling the 2009 Montara case showed that offshore oil spill response to achieve maritime security in Indonesia is not optimal.

The e-commerce growth scenario is forging a new dynamism in business and does not offer time-bound, cost-effective and hassle-free buying and selling. Following the changing approach, security management in e-commerce (cyber security) is now a focus. This research is a qualitative research that uses a case study method to analyze risks and vulnerabilities in the field. People in Bangladesh are primarily unaware of the risks related to using computing and digital devices and online platforms. This article articulates the risk factors associated with the growing reliance on digital technologies and devices. Then, some policy guidelines are prescribed for the national level and individual level, including leading social campaigns, new chapters in the school curriculum, advancing technological aptitudes of law enforcers, strengthening security systems in e-commerce, embanking sites, bringing frauds to justice, initiating law to define cybercrimes, fortifying institutional management of cyber securities.
Sovereignity Issues and Legal Framework Challenges for Foreign Direct Investment in Developing Countries
Authors: Keita Kain , Yeon Asmah Laili Binti , Razak Aida Binti Abdul , Abdullah Nor Anita
Published: July 2023

A host state has faced sovereignty issues and challenges in adopting and applying a legal framework for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) governed by International Investment Law (IIL). IIL provides certain protection to FDI in a host country. The protections have been considered standard in the liberation of the FDI, which could positively impact the FDI attraction into countries. However, the host state's ability to regulate the public interests for a common concern of the peoples, such as social, economic, environmental, and human rights achievement, is indeterminate in IIL, and it became mostly a challenge for the host states. These needs are increasingly being requested by the population from governments. This study looks at how the state’s sovereignty power can be met in the adoption and application of laws and policies for the public's interest and assessment methods which are mostly used by the court in foreign investment disputes. An empirical analysis of the legal issue based on available literature is made. The findings of this study show that the necessity to understand the fears for sovereignty underpins the debate on its legitimacy in investment arbitration. The established sovereignty of state laws is shown in FDI and the desired areas of public interest regularisation. The international arbitral tribunals may reveal the right to balance between private and public interests in applying the national laws, which significantly show unclear and or open-textured international investment agreements (IIAs) provisions. The public interests are mostly applied to national laws over international law.
Group velocity and dispersion of Buchwald and Adams shelf waves. A new analytical approach
Authors: Gnevyshev V. G. , Travkin V. S. , Belonenko T. V.
Published: July 2023

In this paper, a new analysis of the known topographic models of Rossby waves for piecewise exponential topography profiles is performed. A mathematical method is proposed that allows us to find analytically the group velocity and variance. A numerical comparison is made of the relations presented in the study of Buchwald and Adams and the dependencies obtained within the framework of a new analytical approach. Numerical comparative analysis showed that the discrepancy for the phase velocities lies in the range of five percent. For group speeds, the discrepancy reaches nineteen percent for the first mode and decreases for higher mode numbers. We also consider long-wave asymptotics of eigenfunctions. It is established that the long-wave limit for Rossby shelf waves has specifics: the longitudinal wave number tends to zero, and the transverse wave number reaches a certain finite positive constant, which is the greater the higher the mode number. It is shown that in the long-wave limit, Rossby shelf waves transform into shelf topographic currents, while there is a certain self-similarity for the phase and group velocities of shelf currents depending on the value of the topography gradient.

Introduction : Aujourd’hui, la dégradation contribue non seulement à l’appauvrissement de l’écosystème, mais aussi elle met en danger la qualité de vie, voir même la survie de certaines populations vulnérables. Le rôle que joue le sol dans le fonctionnement du milieu ainsi que dans les activités humaines est développé en fonction des contraintes et potentiels que présente le milieu naturel. Objectifs : Le présent travail s’inscrit dans le contexte des relations « sol-plante ». Il vise à faire un diagnostic de la fertilité chimique du sol de la série Yakonde (Y2) à travers les paramètres chimiques classiques du sol. Méthode : Pour atteindre ce but, 6 fosses pédologiques ont été creusés en raison de deux fosses par espèce suivant les techniques de leur mise en plantation (Martineau (MA) et Blanc Etoc (BE)) dans l’arboretum de Bongololi et deux fosses témoins sous forêt primaire. Ces fosses mesuraient 1,5m x 1,0m x 1,0m représentant respectivement la longueur, la largeur et la profondeur. Les échantillons des sols ont été prélevés sur trois tranches du sol (10- 20 cm, 20-40 cm et 40-60cm) donnant ainsi 6 échantillons par fosse. Résultats : Les résultats obtenus ont montré que le paramètre étudié (pH à l’eau et la somme de cations acides : Al3+ + H+) ne manifeste pas d’important changement d’une technique à l’autre par rapport au témoin. Conclusions : Le présent travail s’est fixé comme tâche d’étudier quelques propriétés chimiques des sols sous Pachyelasma tessmannii sous plantation à Yangambi, République Démocratique du Congo enfin d’en évaluer les teneurs nécessaires à la croissance végétale de ladite espèce suivant les techniques de Martineau et Blanc-étoc et forêt dense comme témoin. Mots-clés : pH à l’eau, l’acidité d’échange, Pachyelasma tessmannii, région de Yangambi, R.D. Congo.
ANÁLISE DAS ESTRATÉGIAS PARA MITIGAÇÃO DO ABATE DE ÁRVORES NO DISTRITO DE CHIMBUNILA

Published: July 2023

O trabalho tem como objectivo analisar as estratégias aplicadas na mitigação do abate de árvores no Distrito de Chimbunila. A pesquisa baseou-se na metodologia qualitativa e quantitativa, desenvolvida com base no método hipotético-dedutivo, com recurso à pesquisa bibliográfica e à colecta dos dados na base das entrevistas envolvendo moradores que operam no ramo de florestas no Distrito de Chimbunila. Quanto aos resultados, constatou-se que 100% dos moradores entrevistados já abateram árvores para alguma actividade. À finalidade das árvores abatidas, 50% dos entrevistados responderam que o abate das árvores foi exclusivo para o uso na cozinha para a confecção de alimentos; em relação à sensibilização dos moradores pelas entidades competentes, constatou-se que 77% dos entrevistados nunca foi sensibilizada; todos os entrevistados revelaram não ter conhecimento das consequências do abate indiscriminado das árvores. Destes resultados pode-se chegar às seguintes conclusões: que a população deste distrito depende das florestas para o seu sustento; a crescente procura dos recursos naturais para sua sobrevivência torna os recursos florestais escassos; a sensibilização é factor decisivo no processo de desenvolvimento para a adopção do uso racional dos recursos florestais; as consequências do desmatamento e da degradação florestal são várias, mas neste distrito são notáveis a degradação dos solos, alteração dos tipos de florestas que levaram à eclosão de doenças das plantas cultivadas e a escassez de madeira.

GERENCIAMENTO DA ZONA TAMPÃO DA RESERVA ESPECIAL DO NIASSA, UMA ANÁLISE NO CONTEXTO DE CONSERVAÇÃO DO ECOSSISTEMA FRÁGIL
Authors: Matiaco Presseguido Bunaia , Majuasse Elsa
Published: July 2023

O processo de conservação de áreas protegidas conduz ao estabelecimento de uma área de amortização. No contexto conservacionista, zona-tampão corresponde a uma faixa de terra que separa duas entidades geográficas, biogeográficas ou políticas diferentes. Em nível internacional, vários tratados e convenções foram e estão sendo levados a cabo no sentido de salvaguardar ambientes florestais e faunísticos por via da conservação e delineamento de áreas protegidas. Foi nesse sentido que se realizou esta pesquisa com intuito de analisar os procedimentos de gerenciamento da zona-tampão da Reserva Especial do Niassa no contexto de conservação do ecossistema frágil. Os resultados mostraram ineficiência dos procedimentos de gestão da zona tampão no que cerne à conservação de ecossistemas aliada à fragilidade de fiscalização, exiguidade de recursos, conhecimento técnico deficiente e falta do domínio dos objectivos de desenvolvimento sustentável.

Published: July 2023

O estudo teve como objectivo analisar o impacto socioambiental das técnicas e instrumentos utilizados na pesca artesanal no Lago Chiuta na comunidade de Muhala. A pesquisa caracterizou-se por ser de natureza qualitativa, com uma abordagem descritiva e explicativa, em que se procedeu com uma pesquisa bibliográfica, análise documental e entrevista dirigida a um total de oito (8) pessoas distribuídas da seguinte forma: cinco (5) pescadores do sexo masculino, um (1) técnico de Serviços Distritais de Actividades Económicas do Distrito de Mecanhelas (SDAE) e dois (2) membros do Conselho Comunitário de Pesca. A actividade pesqueira que é realizada ao nível da comunidade de Muhala é artesanal, feita a partir de material rudimentar a saber: rede mosquiteira, rede de arrasta, rede de emalhar, anzóis, nasas e ntuto. Esta é uma actividade de importância para a população de Muhala, porque, desta actividade as famílias conseguem o auto-sustento. Devido ao uso de material ou instrumentos não apropriados tem-se comprometido a continuidade de diversas espécies por mais anos. Os principais factores que contribuem para o uso destes instrumentos nocivos ao meio ambiente vão desde a disponibilidade dos instrumentos apropriados ao nível da comunidade bem como, a falta de recursos financeiros para a sua aquisição.

Published: July 2023

Mit dem Aufkommen der Digitalisierung (Industrie 4.0) eröffnen sich innerhalb der chemischen Prozessindustrie und Petrochemie neue Möglichkeiten zur Kosteneinsparung und Erhöhung der Anlageneffizienz. Der notwendige und ganzheitliche Digitalisierungsgrad macht u.a. den Einsatz geeigneter Geräte der Informationstechnik (portable IT-Endgeräte), wie beispielsweise Tablets oder Smartphones, für das Anlagenpersonal unerlässlich. Aufgrund des hohen Gefährdungspotenzials durch explosionsfähige Atmosphären erfordern die mobilen Geräte auch die sicherheitstechnische Bewertung der Batterien.
