LOAD FREQUENCY CONTROL STRATEGY USING HYBRID ADAPTIVE PARTICLE SWARM-SPIRAL DYNAMIC OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR STAND-ALONE RENEWABLE RURAL NETWORK
Authors: Lawal K.O. , Miya H.S. , Bakare G.A. , Aliyu U.O.
Published: April 2024

This paper proposes an advanced Load Frequency Contol (LFC) strategy, using a hybrid adaptive particle swarm-spiral dynamic optimization algorithm (HAPSSDOA). The optimization algorithms iteratively adjust the PID gains based on the evaluation of the cost function and eventually find the optimal values that minimize the cost function and result in a satisfactory frequency value of 50Hz. The P-I-D parameters for the APSO, SDA, and HAPSSDOA algorithms were 3.5112, 2.9691 and 1.1972; 2.3712, 2.8479 and 0.9827; 2.3519, 1.7989 and 0.8864 respectively. The system’s performance showed the rise time, settling time, percentage overshoot and ITAE of 0.28s, 2.33s, 42.10%, and 0.1076 for APSO; 0.324s, 3.67s, 38.4%, and 0.3590 for SDA; 0.36S, 2.2S, 33.5%, and 0.2430 for HAPSSDOA respectively. The LFC strategy using the hybrid HAPSSDOA achieved better performance, improved robustness, and the best response. The optimized PID controllers’ values brought more stability to the designed microgrid network, by ensuring that the frequency remained at 50Hz.

Published: April 2024

El presente estudio evalúa el comportamiento agronómico y el rendimiento del ají habanero en diferentes densidades de siembra, con el objetivo de determinar la mejor densidad de siembra en el cantón Quinindé. Para llevar a cabo esta investigación, se implementó una metodología que combinó enfoques cualitativos y cuantitativos. Se establecieron nueve parcelas de plantación de ají habanero, con tres tratamientos diferentes: T1 (30 cm entre plantas x 1,20 m entre hileras), T2 (40 cm entre plantas x 1,20 m entre hileras) y T3 (50 cm entre plantas x 1,20 m entre hileras). Se llevaron a cabo mediciones mensuales durante seis meses para las variables: número de hojas, la altura de la planta, el diámetro del tallo, el número de flores y el número de frutos. Se utilizó un diseño completo al azar con tres tratamientos y tres repeticiones, y se realizó un análisis de varianza junto con pruebas de Tukey al 95% de confiabilidad. Los resultados mostraron que la densidad de siembra tiene un impacto significativo tanto en el comportamiento agronómico como en el rendimiento del ají habanero. A medida que disminuía la densidad de siembra, se observó un aumento en el número de hojas, la altura de la planta, el diámetro del tallo, el número de flores y el número de frutos. Los tratamientos con densidades de siembra más altas generaron un mayor rendimiento en términos de número de frutos producidos por planta. La densidad de siembra óptima identificada estadísticamente en este estudio fue la del Tratamiento 2.

Published: April 2024

The development of information and communication technologies, the availability of information online, and the wide spread of the internet have changed the trends of library services. On the other hand, the user’s attitudes towards the library change. The users want digitalized resources and online services. To serve information seekers, there is no other way than digital reference service. Digital Reference Service is the only way to give the right information to the right users at the right time. Digital Reference Service provides a user assistant when they want while sitting at home. University libraries are an important part and parcel of higher education, and the users of these libraries, such as students, faculty members, and researchers always involved in education. They will need any type of information or document at any time. To fulfill their requirement and to achieve their satisfaction, there is no alternative to Digital Reference Service (DRS). From this study, it is found that the mentality of library professionals has changed. They try hard to make the library digital and provide internet-based services. Public university libraries offer a large number of databases to meet the needs of users. Besides these, the university libraries offer online services like Current Awareness Service (CAS), Selective Dissemination of Information (SDI), institutional repositories, and so on. They faced some problems with providing DRS. This study provides some recommendations that will help them to run digital reference services smoothly.

Engineering students’ thoughts on teamwork and approaches to solving a problem with an underperforming member
Authors: Deveci Tanju , Bedirhanoğlu İdris
Published: April 2024

Engineering programs have to develop students’ teamwork skills. However, the onus on content specialists to teach teamwork skills may be challenging partly because of students’ negative attitudes towards and experiences with teamwork. This study investigated 295 engineering students’ thoughts on teamwork and the strategies they used to solve problems with underperforming team members. Data were collected using a survey and a discourse completion task. The results revealed that among the key reasons why the students liked such activities was the exchange of information and experience, increased quantity and quality of work, and interpersonal communication. However, they indicated lack of harmony, social loafing, lack of attention paid to tasks, and individual approaches to learning as reasons for skepticism about teamwork. As to problem-solving strategies, emphatic inquiry and judgmental questioning were most common. Based on these results, we suggest that engineering faculty collaborate with communication instructors in planning and executing soft-skills training for students. Engineering faculty should also be provided with technical support for the incorporation of teamwork activities in virtual environments.

Published: April 2024

Education institutions quickly made the switch to remote teaching and learning because of the COVID-19 pandemic’s extraordinary problems. This study intends to investigate how the pandemic has affected lecturers’ soft skills, which are vital non-technical and interpersonal skills such as efficient communication, teamwork, adaptation, empathy, problem-solving, and leadership. Data were gathered from lecturers who had firsthand experience with the change to remote teaching through a qualitative study methodology that included interviews and focus group discussions. The research shows that lecturers used new tools, modified their teaching methods, and navigated the virtual environment with amazing flexibility and adaptation. Communication skills improved as lecturers used digital tools to interact with students and offer support. With lecturers attending to academic demands and emotional well-being, empathy and student assistance emerged as crucial. Through creative virtual methods, cooperation and teamwork were promoted. To overcome obstacles, problem-solving skills were used. The study advances knowledge about how the pandemic affected lecturers’ soft skills. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed how instructors use their soft skills. Rapid technological advancement, improved communication abilities, adaptability and flexibility, student support and empathy, and teamwork have all been identified as major areas of change. To successfully adapt to changing educational environments and guarantee the delivery of high-quality education, lecturers will need to further develop these soft skills in the future. By accepting these adjustments, lecturers may not only deal with the difficulties caused by the pandemic but also create a future-focused, welcoming learning atmosphere for their students. Future research should focus on long-term effects, quantitative validation of findings, and evaluation of interventions to improve lecturers’ soft skills in distance learning. In light of changing educational environments, such research can promote lecturers’ professional growth and inform pedagogical methods.

ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNING THE NURSING HOMES IN TEHRAN CITY (AS A SAMPLE)
Authors: Aliyari Mahdi
Published: April 2024

In recent years, there has been an increasing trend of entrusting the elderly to nursing homes, thus providing a suitable space that meets their physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs has become necessary. The nursing homes is the first and simplest solution that can be considered for such individuals. However, considering the characteristics and temperament of this group, it is necessary to define a model that can meet the elderly's spiritual and physical needs, alongside maintaining their normal life, in the home of their hopes and memories. Therefore, there is a need for a model that defines a new space in accordance with the psychological and physical conditions of the elderly and can replace previous methods in order to improve the mood of the elderly.

The design of elderly homes, and certainly the creation of suitable decoration for them, should match the global standards. The concept of an elderly village is another model that has been introduced and implemented for the elderly in the West. In this model, housing units have been designed for the elderly to live alone or with their families. Basic and necessary services for the elderly are available in proximity and neighboring the housing units. These places will have a positive impact on creating a sense of usefulness, increasing hope in life, and uplifting the mood of the elderly.

The elderly have the autonomy to use these facilities and they fulfill their needs, such as suitable spaces for exercise and recreation, socializing with peers, preserving their dignity, and creating conditions for their independence during leisure time. They also provide counseling, teach necessary techniques for the elderly’s lives and more.

Authors: Sredić Svetlana , Knežević Nebojša , Milunović Igor
Published: April 2024

Landfill leachate, due to its high total pollution, and above all due to their high organic pollution, represents a significant environmental problem. This study investigated the impacts of the Tilić ada landfill on ground and surface waters. The location of the landfill Tilić ada is extremely sensitive due to the fact that it is located right next to the Drina river bed on the border with the Republic of Serbia, and especially because the source of drinking water Tilić ada is located at a distance of approx. 500 meters. 

Therefore, analyses of impact of leachate from the landfill were carried out, which indicated that the groundwater is at risk even 5 years after the landfill was closed. At the same time, water analyses from the Drina River were also carried out, which showed that the water quality was not impaired in relation to the defined water class.

HELENISMO E CRÍTICA DA MODERNIDADE: a relação com a antiguidade no pensamento de Nietzsche
Authors: Alves Alexandre
Published: April 2024

À procura da essência do helenismo, o jovem Nietzsche ainda acalentava a idéia de um efetivo “retorno” a uma experiência originária, que teria sido ocultada no decorrer da história da civilização e da qual somente os Gregos da época trágica possuiriam a chave. Entretanto, quando Nietzsche inicia sua luta contra a metafísica platônico-cristã, os Gregos passam a desempenhar o papel de um “contra-ideal” cultural para fazer face tanto à visão religiosa e metafísica de mundo quanto ao racionalismo científico moderno. Dessa forma, o helenismo será um dos elementos fundamentais na crítica de Nietzsche à modernidade.
Valores humanos e justiça organizacional no contexto das lotações e remoções de Delegados de Polícia Civil do Distrito Federal
Authors: Pedron Helder Arns , Torres Claudio Vaz
Published: April 2024

O estudo investigou uma relação pouco explorada no campo científico: valores humanos individuais como preditores de justiça organizacional. O contexto foi a distribuição de postos de trabalho para delegados de polícia nas diversas unidades policiais do Distrito Federal, recurso organizacional conhecido como “lotação funcional”, que foi considerado muito importante em uma amostra de 206 participantes, representando 64% da população estudada. As variáveis foram medidas por meio do Portrait Value Questionaire Refined, PVQ-R (Schwartz et al., 2012; Torres et al., 2016), e a Escala de Percepção de Justiça Organizacional, EPJO (Mendonça et al., 2003). As médias gerais revelaram que os valores de conservação e autopromoção são predominantes na carreira, havendo baixa percepção de justiça organizacional sobre a distribuição das lotações, especialmente quanto aos procedimentos adotados para a decisão. Análises inferenciais apontaram poder de predição de valores de conservação sobre justiça distributiva (R² = 0,043) e justiça de procedimentos (R² = 0,068), enquanto que valores de abertura à mudança predisseram justiça interacional (R² = 0,022). O sentido das correlações foi harmônico ao caráter senoidal do Contínuo Motivacional de Schwartz. Os resultados apontam que os delegados com valores de conservação perceberam menos justiça distributiva e de procedimentos, indicando que o sistema de lotações e remoções pode ativar metas de segurança com impacto negativo na percepção de justiça, enquanto que policiais com metas opostas relataram maior justiça interacional.
Pushbacks From Europe’s Borders Enter the Mainstream
Authors: Grześkowiak Maciej
Published: April 2024

The Polish reckoning with the illiberal turn of the past years seemingly does not apply to the unlawful practice of pushbacks on the Poland-Belarus border. The unlawful practices, best exemplified by pushbacks, have come to be accepted in the European mainstream. The humanitarian crisis on the Poland-Belarus border and its handling by the new government, together with its rejection of the New Pact on Migration and Asylum, vividly illustrates this point.

Authors: Hanifa Dien , Arrisman Arrisman , Haryanto Imam
Published: April 2024

The source of the State Budget is Taxes. Tax is a mandatory contribution that is coercive because it is regulated by law. One of the tax collection systems is self-assessment, where taxpayers are given the freedom to pay and report their taxes independently, the fiscal officer supervises and checks the tax returns reported by taxpayers every year. This difference in opinion on the results of the examination between taxpayers and tax officers is what raises the problem of tax disputes. The problem of tax disputes has existed from the Dutch colonial era to the present. The Tax Court is the body that decides tax dispute cases, the name and duties of the tax court have changed from time to time and with the decision number 26/PUU-XXI/2023 concerning the Tax Court. The authority of the tax court changed to the full authority of the Supreme Court. This article concludes that the Tax Court developed over time, and along with tax reform the Tax Court also underwent reform with the transfer of organizational, administrative, and financial coaching  authority to the Supreme Court (MA). With this transfer of authority, it is hoped that the Tax Court can decide tax dispute cases fairly and have legal certainty for the parties to the dispute.

The research was conducted through descriptive qualitative method involving classroom observation, questionnaire and interview. The subject of the research consisted of two teachers, a male and a female English teacher and 20 students of SMPN 4 Marioriawa. The data gathered had been analyzed through data analysis proposed by Miles and Huberman (1994) namely data reduction, data display and conclusion drawing. The result of this research revealed that there were 8 kinds of nonverbal communication that commonly used by teachers of SMPN 4 Marioriawa namely physical appearance, kinesics, oculesics, vocalics, haptics, proxemics, chronemics and olfactics. Findings also show that there are some differences between the kinds of nonverbal communication that are preferred by male and female students. Those differences can be seen on the students’ perspective on teacher’s physical appearance, chronemics and vocalic. Furthermore, each kind of nonverbal communication has different impact toward students’ learning domains that are cognitive, affective and psychomotor. The proper use of nonverbal communication helps teacher to deliver material easier. Physical appearance, kinesics, vocalics and proxemics can increase student’s cognitive domain. Meanwhile physical appearance, kinesics, oculesic, haptics, chronemics and olfactics can improve students’ affective domain including motivation, enthusiasm and behavior. And proxemics can improve students’ psychomotor domain including skills.

In financial market forecasting, the mean squared error (MSE) was reduced to 0.015, and the fault detection accuracy in industrial equipment monitoring increased to 95%. The paper also proposes future research directions, including multi-source data fusion, anomaly detection, computational efficiency enhancement, and model interpretability. Adaptive machine learning technology not only enriches the theoretical framework of machine learning but also provides new solutions for practical applications in various fields, paving the way for further development of intelligent systems.

Published: April 2024

Objetivo. Demostrar la eficacia del masaje terapéutico en el alivio del malestar en niños con bronquiolitis.
Pacientes. Niños de ambos sexos menores de 13 meses de edad, con diagnóstico de bronquiolitis, ingresados en el servicio de Cuidados Intensivos Pediátricos del Hospital Universitario La Paz que presenten síntomas de malestar, evaluado como presencia de tiraje respiratorio, aleteo nasal, descenso de la pO2 y/o modificaciones en la frecuencia respiratoria y/ o cardíaca y que no estén sometidos a ventilación mecánica, sedo-analgesia o que hayan recibido analgésicos en la hora previa a la intervención.
Diseño. Ensayo clínico aleatorizado paralelo, de tres ramas de tratamiento con grupo control de “no intervención”.
Variables independientes. El tratamiento con tres niveles (masaje terapéutico mediante la técnica Tui-na, estimulación cutánea y no tratamiento) y la variación antes y después de la aplicación del mismo. Las variables dependientes: frecuencia cardíaca, frecuencia respiratoria, saturación de oxígeno, presencia de tiraje respiratorio, presencia de aleteo nasal y niveles de cortisol en saliva. Se recogerán antes y a los 20-30 minutos después de finalizar el tratamiento. Se compararán los valores antes y después del tratamiento para cada grupo, y las posibles diferencias en cada una de las variables dependientes tras la aplicación del mismo.
Análisis. Análisis descriptivo de los datos demográficos de los pacientes, de las necesidades respiratorias y de cada variable dependiente, de cada grupo y un ANOVA de medidas repetidas.
Se espera generar evidencia científica que permita realizar propuestas para mejorar la calidad de los Cuidados de Enfermería.
¿Qué es Enfermería de Práctica Avanzada (EPA)?
Authors: Sobrino Ángel Alfonso Álvarez
Published: April 2024

Introducción. Exísten más de trece definiciones de Enfermería de Práctica Avanzada, lo que demuestra una gran heterogeneidad. El Consejo Internacional de Enfermería (CIE) define la EPA como: "una enfermera especialista que ha adquirido la base de conocimientos de experto, las capacidades de adopción de decisiones complejas y las competencias clínicas necesarias para el ejercicio profesional ampliado cuyas características vienen dadas por el contexto o el país en el que la enfermera está acreditada para ejercer. Como nivel de entrada se recomienda un título medio universitario" (CIE2009a)
Material y método. Análisis de textos normativos y consulta con expertos.
Resultados. Desde hace unos años se publica el Real Decreto que regula las especialidades de enfermería y a la vez se comienza a hablar de la EPA, algo que parece contradictorio cuando ni si quiera se ha desarrollado la planificación necesaria para que estás enfermeras desarrollen su actividad como especialistas. Esta planificación está dirigida por normativas como la Ley de Ordenación de Profesiones Sanitarias que recoge la formación especializada en Ciencias de la Salud.
Conclusiones. Por tanto, ¿por qué crear una EPA cuando ya se ha definido esta figura en la ordenación jurídica, dentro del marco de especialidades enfermeras?
Enfermería de práctica avanzada a nivel internacional, una aproximación a esta figura en pediatría
Authors: Sobrino Ángel Alfonso Álvarez
Published: April 2024

Introducción. Con el objetivo de realizar una aproximación de la Enfermería de Práctica Avanzada Pediátrica (EPAP) a la Enfermería de Práctica Avanzada (EPA) y el significado que tiene en el contexto actual en nuestro país con el desarrollo de las especialidades enfermeras y en concreto con la Especialidad en Enfermería Pediátrica.
Material y método. Se llevó a cabo una revisión bibliográfica que comenzó en junio de 2018 hasta julio de 2019, que fue identificada a través de búsquedas sistemáticas, sin filtros temporales en bases de datos nacionales e internacionales, así como libros y literatura gris incluidas.
Resultados. Haciendo una comparativa entre las figuras de Neonatal Nurse Practitioner (NNP) que es la más frecuente y reconocida a nivel mundial con la figura más próxima que tenemos en España, Enfermera Especialista en Pediatría (EEP) con acreditación propia, se establecen puntos en común entre ambas.
Conclusión. Hay una cohesión evidente entre la NNP que sería una EPAP y la EEP, comprobándose sobre todo en el propio lenguaje de redacción de los textos legales en los que se habla de práctica avanzada en muchas ocasiones, además de que las competencias que se enumeran y explican en el marco teórico de la especialidad están en íntima consonancia con las competencias de la práctica avanzada.
Instrumentos metodológicos para la mejora de la calidad de los cuidados del niño con heridas y/o contusiones
Authors: Arribas Cachá Antonio
Published: April 2024

Se realiza una descripción de los tres elementos básicos que permiten establecer el marco conceptual de la atención de enfermería al niño con heridas y/o contusiones. Enfermería como disciplina científica dotada de un cuerpo de conocimientos propio y un ciclo de calidad para llevar a la práctica estos conocimientos de forma eficaz y segura. Valoración de enfermería como una de las fases del ciclo de calidad destinada a realizar el control y seguimiento de la efectividad de los cuidados. Heridas y contusiones como incidencias agudas de la salud en la que la base de la actuación está basada en los cuidados de salud que permiten actuar al organismo en su reparación, evitando complicaciones.
Se intenta conocer la posibilidad de disponer de instrumentos fiables que mejoren la eficacia y seguridad en la atención del niño con heridas y/o contusiones, comprobándose que sí es posible. Se consigue la elaboración de un protocolo clínico estandarizado de valoración para su control y seguimiento y unos planes de cuidados estandarizados con trayectos metodológicos completos como instrumentos de ayuda en la toma de decisiones.
Asociación entre un programa de almuerzo escolar y obesidad infantil. Estudio piloto en un colegio de primaria.
Authors: Martín Soler Raquel , Blázquez Castro María Teresa
Published: April 2024

Introducción. La alta prevalencia de obesidad infantil ha llevado a la creación de intervenciones sobre la alimentación y la actividad física en los escolares. Pero hay escasos estudios que se centren en el almuerzo escolar.
Objetivos. Descubrir si existe una asociación entre el cumplimiento del programa del almuerzo escolar y la obesidad infantil, conocer el grado de adhesión a las recomendaciones y determinar la prevalencia de sobrepeso y obesidad en nuestra muestra.
Metodología. Estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal. Muestra de 189 escolares entre 6 y 9 años. Medimos el IMC y preguntamos lo tomado durante el almuerzo del recreo en 5 días diferentes de la semana.
Resultados. no se ha encontrado una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre la adhesión al programa del almuerzo escolar y la obesidad infantil. Hay diferencias significativas al relacionar la adhesión al programa con la edad de los sujetos. El 61,9% de la muestra cumple las recomendaciones del programa. La prevalencia de sobrepeso es de 26,5% y la de obesidad es de 15,9%.
Discusión. Los datos de sobrepeso y obesidad coinciden con los encontrados en el estudio ALADINO 2015. Otros autores revelan la utilidad de programas similares sobre la reducción de la obesidad y el sobrepeso en escolares.

Authors: Aguado Ullate Carolina , Pérez de Zabalza Polite Andrea , Salinas Bazán Rebeca
Published: April 2024

En las Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos es necesario un continuo control hemodinámico del paciente crítico. La cateterización arterial, que es el segundo procedimiento más realizado en UCI, nos permite tener un control continuo de la presión arterial (PA) y un acceso permanente para muestras gasométricas. La canalización de un catéter arterial radial y su correcta monitorización es una técnica enfermera desarrollada a diario por las enfermeras de UCI. Por ello es importante que estén bien instruidas en esta técnica, con lo que conseguiremos minimizar los posibles riesgos y complicaciones para el paciente derivados de este procedimiento.

Published: April 2024

Introducción. La prevalencia de la obesidad infantil está influenciada tanto por factores psicológicos, socioeconómicos y familiares, incluida la educación de los hijos. La influencia de los padres en la alimentación de sus hijos es un tema crítico teniendo en cuenta la creciente prevalencia de obesidad en niños y jóvenes. Los niños dependen exclusivamente de sus padres para llevar una nutrición adecuada y una actividad física regular.
Objetivo. En este estudio se pretende determinar los factores asociados al riesgo de presentar sobrepeso u obesidad infantil, así como resaltar las características nutricionales y estilos de vida tanto de la población pediátrica como de sus progenitores.
Resultados. Los resultados muestran una necesidad de mejora del patrón alimentario en la población pediátrica y el aumento de la actividad física tanto en la población infantil como en la muestra parental. Resaltando el alto porcentaje de niños que comen mientras utilizan un dispositivo electrónico.
Conclusiones. La enfermera pediátrica en atención primaria tiene una función relevante para la prevención del sobrepeso y la obesidad infantil, así como, ser influyente en la adquisición de hábitos saludables de niños y sus familiares.

Authors: Monje Vigón Marta
Published: April 2024

Con el objetivo de analizar su potencial para el autocuidado, en este trabajo se realiza el estudio comparativo de una selección de aplicaciones móviles de salud en español, desarrolladas con la finalidad de asistir en la autogestión de la diabetes mellitus tipo 1.
Como estrategia metodológica, se realizó una revisión sistemática de aplicaciones de los sistemas operativos iOS y Android, analizando una muestra de 882 apps. Las funcionalidades se valoraron de acuerdo a 31 criterios obtenidos de traducir, en requisitos implementables en un dispositivo móvil, las recomendaciones de tres guías clínicas referentes en materia de autocuidado sobre diabetes mellitus. Para la evaluación de las aplicaciones se utilizó el método Delphi de consenso entre un grupo de expertos.
Únicamente 8 apps resultaron relevantes para este estudio. Aunque ninguna comprende funcionalidades que promuevan la totalidad de las 7 conductas de autocuidado, sí incluyen una media de 14 criterios, siendo más prevalentes los relacionados con el registro e interpretación de las automonitorizaciones de glucemia. Social Diabetes, myDiabecticAlert y mySugr alcanzaron la mayor puntuación.
