Fluid Model of Spacetime Curvature and Galactic Dynamics
Authors: Hernández Pedro Javier Villanueva
Published: January 2024

This article proposes a fluid mechanics-inspired perspective to explore
galactic dynamics and spacetime curvature. It suggests that spacetime
can be considered as a fabric under tension, influencing the trajectory
of galaxies analogously to particles in a viscous fluid. The presented
visualization artistically reflects this concept, showing galaxies
moving over a concave surface akin to a convex lens, moving away from
the center and towards the edges, akin to the behavior of viscous fluid
droplets on a slanted surface. This model offers an opportunity to
rethink cosmological theories and could provide new avenues for
interpreting astronomical observations.
Sector-coupling Green Hydrogen to Electrify Steel Production - A Case Study at Ovako Hofors
Authors: Elmfeldt Teodor , Arafat Yasir , Tjernberg Lina Bertling , Lugnet Anders , Nyström Göran
Published: January 2024

With a global energy system in rapid transformation from fossil fuels,
Green Hydrogen is one of few solutions to hard-to-abate emissions within
industry. While most hydrogen projects are in a planning phase, the
Ovako hydrogen facility in Hofors, with a scrap-based Electric Arc
Furnace process, was inaugurated in September 2023. This project studies
wider system benefits of the electrolyser such as power grid support,
oxygen byproduct, providing hydrogen to external actors, and district
heating. This is analysed both with current capacity and in regards to
possible future development. Replacing fossil fuel with hydrogen
produced by an atmospheric alkaline electrolyser is an indirect
electrification with the potential to decrease Green House Gas
emissions. Industry-wide electrification increases the demand for
electricity, affecting all existing users. Therefore, system benefits
and sector couplings such as enabling ancillary services to the grid,
producing low-marginal cost hydrogen for hydrogen-powered trucks, and
using waste heat for district heating, are important to ascertain
system-wide improvements.

Authors: Elmfeldt Teodor , Tjernberg Lina Bertling , Levin Christina Carlsund
Published: January 2024

This paper explores the application of Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity
(PSH) within an electricity market characterised by a substantial share
of renewable and intermittent electricity production. The purpose of PSH
is to enhance the alignment of supply with demand by storing energy at
electricity surplus and releasing it during shortage. The Juktan Power
Station, once the PSH facility in Sweden with a storage capacity of
about 25 GWh and maximum generation of 335 MW, serves as a case study.
An in-depth analysis of the properties of the Swedish electricity market
and its influencing factors is conducted. Wind speed data is
successfully used to increase accuracy of electricity price prediction.
Furthermore, a model is developed to calculate potential profitability
employing various operation methods. In conclusion, large-scale PSH
provide significant benefit to the robustness of the electricity system
with a clear increase in value beginning in 2021. However, concerns
about grid tariff design, electricity market development and energy
storage incentives means that investments are not obviously profitable.
Innovative Strategies for Ensuring Privacy in Machine Learning Environments
Authors: Shammar Elham
Published: January 2024

This paper presents an in-depth examination of privacy-enhancing methodologies in machine learning. It highlights the integration of federated learning with cutting-edge encryption techniques and explores how blockchain architectures contribute to data privacy. A major focus is on federated learning, a decentralized model training strategy, and its combination with privacy-protecting technologies like Homomorphic Encryption, Differential Privacy, and Secure Multi-Party Computation. We emphasize that federated learning naturally improves data privacy and, when paired with cryptographic methods, increases resilience against data breaches and cyber-attacks. Additionally, this study explores the potential of blockchain in enhancing data privacy. Blockchain’s immutable and transparent characteristics, supplemented with shuffling technology, zero-knowledge proofs, and ring signatures, improve the confidentiality and integrity of data transactions. The paper also emphasizes the critical need for transparency and explainability in machine learning, advocating for methods that demystify the decision-making processes of ML models. This transparency is crucial for building trust and is becoming a regulatory requirement in many industries. Furthermore, the paper discusses the importance of auditing in machine learning, highlighting the need for comprehensive model validation and ethical considerations. In conclusion, the paper argues that achieving a balance 1 between functionality and privacy in ML applications is essential. It suggests that a combination of federated learning, advanced cryptographic techniques, and explainable AI principles can create effective and privacy-respecting systems.
A Low-Complexity Detector for OTFS-based Sensing
Authors: Bacchielli Tommaso , Pucci Lorenzo , Paolini Enrico , Giorgetti Andrea
Published: January 2024

Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation holds great promise
for enabling integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems in
future mobile networks. However, computing the channel matrix in OTFS
presents significant challenges due to its extremely high dimension,
especially in sensing applications. This study introduces a novel
approach to drastically reduce the computational complexity of the
OTFS-based ISAC system. Firstly, we define four low-dimensional
matrices, which are utilized in computing the channel matrix through
simple algebraic manipulations. Secondly, we establish an analytic
criterion independent of system parameters to identify the most
informative elements in each of these matrices by leveraging the
properties of the Dirichlet kernel. To gauge the impact of our approach,
we derive the computational complexity of the distilled channel matrix
in terms of the number of elementary operations required. Numerical
results demonstrate that our proposed technique significantly reduces
receiver complexity by up to three orders of magnitude without
compromising sensing performance.
Image Intrinsic-Based Unsupervised Monocular Depth Estimation in Endoscopy
Authors: Li Bojian , Liu Bo , Zhu Miao , Luo Xiaoyan , Zhou Fugen
Published: January 2024

Unsupervised monocular depth estimation plays a vital role for
endoscopy-based minimally invasive surgery (MIS). However, it remains
challenging due to the distinctive imaging characteristics of endoscopy
which disrupt the assumption of photometric consistency, a foundation
relied upon by conventional methods. Distinct from recent approaches
taking image pre-processing strategy, this paper introduces a pioneering
solution through intrinsic image decomposition (IID) theory.
Specifically, we propose a novel end-to-end intrinsic-based unsupervised
monocular depth learning framework that is comprised of an image
intrinsic decomposition module and a frame reconstruction module. This
framework seamlessly integrates IID with unsupervised monocular depth
estimation, and dedicated losses are meticulously designed to offer
robust supervision for network training based on this novel integration.
Noteworthy, we rely on the favorable property of the resulting albedo
map of IID to circumvent the challenging images characteristics instead
of pre-processing the input frames. The proposed method is extensively
validated on SCARED and Hamlyn datasets, and better results are obtained
than state-of-the-art techniques. Beside, its generalization ability and
the effectiveness of the proposed components are also validated. This
innovative method has the potential to elevate the quality of 3D
reconstruction in monocular endoscopy, thereby enhancing the accuracy
and robustness of augmented reality navigation technology in MIS. Our
code will be available

PROMOTING EFL STUDENTS ENTREPRENEURSHIP ENTHUSIASM: USING PROJECT-BASED LEARNING IN EXTENSIVE READING ACTIVITIES
Authors: Zulfariati Zulfariati
Published: January 2024

This article discusses how Extensive Reading (ER) activities promote English as a Foreign Language (EFL) college students’ entrepreneurship enthusiasm by giving the chance to the individual student to select the topic to be read based on the most interesting one in his/her life. As ER is defined as pleasure reading, most of the previous research reports promoting ER activities for EFL students deal mostly with reading literary texts. For EFL college students, however, ER should not focus on reading literary texts, but also on the academic and popular ones. They need to be able to read a wide range of academic and popular texts for school task demands and for their prospective work purpose. They should be encouraged to read other types of texts other than literary one—which can improve their entrepreneurship enthusiasm. The method used in this study is classroom action research by implementing Project Based Learning (PBL) in two cycles. The results of this study showed that in the first cycle the students were able to read everything about the most interesting thing in their life guided by the mind map usage, made papers of reading reports based on both printed and digital resources, made the slides of oral report contained project plan of entrepreneurship products or services. In the second cycle the students were able to complete the project in form of portfolio contained the complete plan of entrepreneurship products and/or services. It is concluded that the implementing of PBL can promote EFL students’ entrepreneurship enthusiasm.

Authors: Kuswardani Yuli , Ningsih Nuri Ati , Ambarwati Rosita
Published: January 2024

Muallaf novel contains many cultural terms and concepts that translator was faced with translation ideology, whether translator will maintain cultural concept of source text or adapt it to cultural concept of target text. This choice has implication for the application of translation procedures. This research was focused on two objectives, namely translation procedure used by translator and translation ideology chosen by translator. Researchers used qualitative research as the approach and descriptive qualitative as type of research. Primary data was Muallaf novel by John Michaelson and secondary data were some appropriate journals and related books. Data collecting technique used was documentation. Sample was gained from four subparts of novel. Data analysing technique used was data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. First research result indicated that there were 11 procedures used in translating the novel that categorized into foreignization (SL-oriented) including literal, borrowing and calque and other procedures that categorized into domestication (TL-oriented) including free, adaptation, transposition, description, modulation, reduction, amplification and word for word. The finding about procedures was then used to generate second research result which showed that translator applied foreignization and domestication to be carried out in translating novel. The results of this research can provide input and new insights for translators to combine two ideologies rather than to adopt one of two ideologies in order to produce translation that can still reflect cultural aspects of SL while on the other hand readers do not feel if what he is reading is a work of translation. Due to previous researches that use this novel as an object of study this research can add findings from different point of view. This research also become input for next researchers to study translation ideology to improve translation quality.

Published: January 2024

This study investigated the anxiety-related challenges faced by students in argumentative writing and their impact on writing performance. The research utilized questionnaires to collect quantitative data from fourth-semester students enrolled in the Argumentative Writing Subject. The study explored psychological, emotional, and cognitive obstacles that impede students' writing abilities and contribute to anxiety. Results indicated that 31.8 percent of students reported psychological symptoms such as excessive sweating and trembling hands when engaging in argumentative writing tasks. These manifestations highlighted the negative influence of anxiety on learning outcomes, emphasizing the need for support and interventions. By addressing psychological, emotional, and cognitive difficulties, promoting engagement in the writing process, and encouraging initiative in group discussions, educators can create an inclusive learning environment that fosters student’s ability to overcome anxiety barriers and excel in argumentative writing. However, it is important to acknowledge limitations in this research, including potential response bias due to self-report measures and the limited sample size from a specific educational institution, which may affect the generalizability of the findings. Future research should employ diverse assessment methods, and larger and more representative samples, and further explore the intricate connections between psychological, emotional, and cognitive symptoms of anxiety and their specific impacts on writing performance to enhance our understanding of this topic.

Published: January 2024

This study aimed to investigate the correlation between extrinsic motivation and academic achievement among first-year students studying English at MAS TI Kumpulan during the 2021/2022 academic year. This study revealed several issues affecting students’ motivation in learning English. Specifically, many students lacked interest in studying English, experienced a lack of motivation from teachers, but received a reward at the end of the semester for the highest score. Additionally, a significant number of students failed to complete homework due to inadequate parental support. Furthermore, students found English to be a challenging subject because of a lack of peer support. The study comprised 65 students, with a sample size of 24, selected using purposive sampling.  Data were collected using questionnaires and documentation. The coefficient of correlation was determined to be -0.114, indicating no significant relationship between extrinsic motivation and academic achievement in English studies among the students. In other words, according to hypothesis testing, the t-score was -0.114 while the t-table was 0.432. This indicates that the t-score was lower than the t-table. As a result, Ha was rejected and Ho was accepted, indicating that there was no significant correlation between students' extrinsic motivation and their academic achievement in the study of English.

Authors: Wahyudi Mohammad Arief , Kusumahwardani Andini
Published: January 2024

The insufficient vocabulary of students often leads to their reluctance in applying English language skills. To address this issue and encourage active usage of English, it is crucial to focus on vocabulary development through effective learning practices. In this context, the researcher sought a solution to enhance writing skills and promote a deeper understanding of word meanings. The chosen approach involved incorporating an engaging and enjoyable medium, namely the Puzzle game, as a means of facilitating vocabulary growth. The Puzzle game, specifically the Word Search Puzzle, was selected as it not only serves as a game but also captures students' interest by sparking curiosity about hidden words. In a Word Search Puzzle game, players search for concealed words in provided boxes, guided by word clues. These words may be arranged vertically, horizontally, or diagonally within the grid. The study involves a sample of 20 students selected from the entire population. Utilizing SPSS 22 for calculations, the results indicate statistical significance, leading to the conclusion that the Word Search Puzzle game is effective in enhancing vocabulary. This finding underscores the proven efficacy of the Word Search Puzzle game as a learning medium, demonstrating its capacity to augment students' vocabularies. Consequently, teachers can consider integrating this method into their teaching practices to facilitate effective vocabulary instruction.

Authors: Rika Atta , Br. Perangin-angin Alemina , Fitria Dila
Published: January 2024

This study aims to describe the forms of double standards in hate comments against K-POP artists found on Instagram. This research used a descriptive qualitative approach, which refers to research methods that produce descriptive data using a pragmatic approach. The data was collected from the most followed K-POP pages on Instagram in Indonesia: @fyi.korea, @officialkvibes, and @coppamagz. The objects of this study are the hate comments found on these Instagram pages. The theory used to analyze the data was speech act theory, which consists of locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary. This was followed by the identification of double standards. Pragmatic coding specifically targets linguistic patterns that indicate double standards. Based on the results of observations on these sites, it was found that some of the data included hate comments aimed at several K-pop idols. The results of the study indicate that the topics that receive the most hate comments were related to dating scandals, the sexy appearance of K-Pop artists, and  the physical appearance and visual aspects. Based on the results, the double standard towards the involved K-POP artists is glaringly obvious. It can be concluded that there were two main factors that contribute to this double standard: gender and popularity. In terms of gender, female K-POP artists are criticized and receive hate comments more often than their male counterparts. Meanwhile, in terms of popularity, K-POP artists who are more popular tend to receive more hate comments than those who are less popular.
TEACHERS’ PERCEPTION ON REFLECTIVE TEACHING PRACTICE IN ENGLISH FOREIGN LANGUAGE (EFL) CLASSROOM: A CASE STUDY OF ENGLISH NOVICE TEACHER
Authors: Hutauruk Desi Ramadali , Br. Kembaren Farida Refelitawaty
Published: January 2024

The aim of this research was to explore the perceptions of English novice teachers regarding reflective teaching practices in EFL classrooms in rural schools. The study employed a qualitative description with a case study design as the research method, and data collection was conducted online through semi-structured interviews and reflective journals with five English novice teachers selected through convenience sampling at the secondary school level. The findings revealed that novice English teachers had positive perceptions regarding the implementation of reflective teaching practices. English novice teachers applied some reflective practices in their teaching, but some practices proved challenging for them due to a lack of understanding, limited preparation time, and a lack of collaboration with peers, hindering them from engaging in more effective reflective practices. Therefore, it can be concluded that the implementation of reflective teaching practices by English novice teachers in rural schools was less effective in developing the quality of their teaching. This study suggests that teacher education programs, especially for English teachers, and schools should equip prospective teachers with adequate understanding and support. This can be achieved through structured training programs, mentoring initiatives, and learning communities to prepare future English teachers for a successful teaching career in rural settings by fostering effective reflective teaching practices.

Hence, this study aimed to develop a pulverized Balimbing (A. carambola) as a potent food enhancer. This study also determined the level of sourness of a pulverized A. carambola fruit sour spice at different maturity levels (unripe and ripe). Phytochemical screening was done in the Balimbing (A. carambola) fruit to determine its chemical components, secondary metabolites, and toxicity. The study utilized a descriptive research method. This design was deemed appropriate because in this study, the researcher could set up an experiment to determine the level of pH value of the pulverized A. carambola at different maturity levels, ripe and unripe. The experiment was conducted to determine the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the pulverized Balimbing. The set-up consisted of two maturity levels: unripe and ripe. Each maturity level has three replicates. Each replicate contains a mass of 20 grams. All the replicates were evaluated for their quantitative characteristics, such as pH level. Findings revealed that A. carambola fruit differs in its pH concerning its maturity levels, with an average pH in mature green fruit (unripe) and ripe A. carambola fruit, respectively. It was found that the developed A. carambola food enhancer showed a very acceptable result in terms of texture, appearance, and flavor/taste. At the same time, its aroma was described as acceptable. Further, the moisture, strip, and pH of A. carambola show significant differences with respect to its maturity levels (ripe and unripe) at 0.01 significance level.
Assessing Betweenness Centrality for Multimodal Transport Network – A Case Study of Delhi Metropolitan Area
Authors: - Jagannath Das , - Sewa Ram
Published: January 2024

This study introduces an approach for analysis of network centrality, with a focus on betweenness centrality in complex urban transport systems. Central to this research is the development of a Path Evaluation Function (PEF), a tool that enriches traditional centrality assessments for transport networks by factoring in critical network attributes like link capacity and travel time. This approach is particularly adept at unraveling the intricacies of betweenness centrality in multimodal transportation networks. Using this approach, the study delves into the dynamics of betweenness centrality within the Delhi Metropolitan transport network, an evolving urban landscape characterized by diverse transit modes. The analysis reveals a marked concentration of high betweenness centrality along key transport corridors, highlighting their role in facilitating urban mobility. This refined understanding of betweenness centrality, obtained through the PEF, offers deeper insights into how crucial nodes and links function within the network, thereby enabling more informed decision-making in urban planning and policy. Furthermore, the versatility of the PEF extends beyond betweenness centrality, showing promise as a tool for evaluating other centrality measures within varied network contexts.

BACKGROUND: Academic stress is defined as the body’s response to academic related demands that exceeds adaptive capability of students. It estimated that 10-30% of students experience some degree of academic stress during their career. Physiotherapy students have attributed academic demands like time demands, amount of material to be learnt, uncertainty about expectation, lack of skill and personal factors as contribution to¬¬¬¬¬ psychological morbidity
OBJECTIVE: The study aims at assessing the level of Perceived stress among Physiotherapy students and their coping behaviors with the stress
METHOD: It is a cross sectional time of descriptive study that was conducted on 250 physiotherapy students in and around Bangalore. A convenient non probability technique of sampling is used and 207 participants selected for study.
RESULTS: The study consisted of 207 Physiotherapy students, majority of the students that is 40.8% were between 18 to 20 years followed by 44% between 21 to 23 years and 6.3% were between 24 to 26 years old. Out of 207 participants, 67.6% were female and 32.4% were male. According to this study 34.8% were 1st year students, 25.6% were 4th years, 25.1% were 2nd years and 14.5% were 3rd year students. Average stress score was 42.82±8.14 and average COPE score was 65.71±12.60.
CONCLUSION: As a result, the objectives of this study is to identify the causes of the respondent’s academic stress and the coping mechanisms they employed that have already been met by using the PAS questionnaire and the Brief Cope questionnaire as the instruments.

Published: January 2024

The use of alternative therapies, herbs, and supplements occurs at a very high rate among patients attending a variety of health care settings. Such therapy may cause significant interactions or effects on hypertension and other cardiovascular disorders and needs to be considered by clinicians. In this brief review, we highlight several commonly used alternative therapies that may have a clinical impact in the hypertensive patient. Several problems hinder our complete awareness of these effects .These problems include patients not informing physicians about alternative treatment from the herbal use, which may occur the lack of constituents with specific scientific standards for the bioactivity and bioequivalence of many herbals or supplements, and the multiple names that each bioactive substance show a therapeutic effect under a given mechanism of each drug which effect the body with a particular dose. regarding herbals therapies in the hypertension clinic it show the therapeutic effect which may increase the activity. Therefore herbal drugs including garlic, and licorice all may cause important consequences in the hypertensive patient. Added care is needed in monitoring the use and effects of herbal and alternative therapies in the hypertensive population.
