Published: September 2020

The work purpose is development of the theory ensuring creation of an efficient system of fast process control in the plasma generator of a glow discharge and contributing to the development of new techniques and equipment for their realization under conditions of controllable automated tool production.

There are used regulations of quantum mechanics lying in that any system can be described by setting in a general case a complex wave function of the kind of . A possibility to find out a charged particle at the time t in some point of the near-cathode area of the closed volume of the plasma generator with the radius-vector was defined by probability density which is presented by a module square of the wave function of .

In the course of the investigation carried out there are obtained the following results. The formation of charged particle flows in the plasma generator of a glow discharge has a probabilistic character. The Schroedinger equation use to obtain analytical dependences describing the processes of charged particle flows formation in the plasma generator of a glow charge is the most corresponding as it allows defining a value of their energy depending on the gas technological environment used. The rate change of gas technological environment pumping allows forming a corresponding volume of ions having specified energy and frequency, in the flow taking into account their mass and energy according to the adopted exponential distribution of ion mass in the flow.

In automated technological environment having changed a kind of gas technological environment and a rate of its pumping it is possible to obtain predictable results of the impact of glow discharge plasma upon a surface of products worked explaining the effect of defect generation. As a result of high-energy ion bombardment of the surface of products under processing in the plasma generator of the glow discharge there is discovered the presence of a dissipative process with the elements of self-organization. The low-energy ion presence in the flow ensures an ion current transfer which results in the change of chemical and phase structure in the surface volume of material, its modification and reduction of a crystalline structure and also in amorphism on the surface.

HZ. PEYGAMBER'İN HAYATINDA UYKU
Authors: ÖNAL Ramazan
Published: September 2020

Bu araştırmada Hz. Peygamber’in uykusu, uyku vakitleri, uykudan önce ve uyandıktan sonra yaptığı duaları ile uykuya dair bazı faaliyetleri ele alınacaktır. Hayatımızın üçte biri gibi önemli bir zaman dilimi uykuyla geçmektedir. Hayatın akışı içerisinde faaliyetsiz ve faydasız bir süreç olarak algılanan uyku, Hz. Peygamber’in hayatında ibadet, zikir ve dua vesilesi olmuştur. Esasen fıtri bir ihtiyaç olan bu davranış, Hz. Peygamber’in hayatında zamanlaması, süresi ve diğer yönleriyle bir hayat disiplini ve ibadet vesilesi haline gelmiştir. Zira onun hayatında uyku, uygun vakitlerde abdestli olarak ibadetin ruhu olan dua ile başlamış, edep ve adapla devam etmiş ve yine dua ile tamamlanmıştır. Ayrıca Hz. Peygamber’in hayatında uykunun amacı ve zamanlaması ibadet için önemli bir fırsat ortamı olarak ayarlanmıştır. Hz. Peygamber, her konuda olduğu gibi uyku konusunda da ümmetine örnek olmuş ve onlara bu konuda bir takım tavsiyelerde bulunmuştur. Uykusu son derece hafif ve sınırlı olduğu halde Hz. Peygamber’in, buna rağmen hayatında uykusuzluk çektiği görülmemiştir. O, bazı dönemlerde gecenin büyük bir kısmını uyumadan ibadet ederek geçirdiği olmuştur. Hastalık veya başka sebeplerden dolayı kalkamadığı geceler de olmuştur. Onun hayatında uyku ve istirahat fıtratı sağlıklı bir insanın yaşaması gereken güzel bir alışkanlık haline gelmiştir.
The United States Policy in Relation to Ethiopia, Democratic Republic Of The Congo, Sudan, South Sudan, Angola, and Libya
Authors: Urnov Andrey
Published: September 2020

The political, economic and strategic significance of these six African countries have made them the object of intent attention and multivector activities by the United States of America. The article is focused on the events of 2019-2020. Despite an unprecedented internal political split and the coronavirus pandemic, the US African policy was sufficiently energetic, based on traditional “pillars” and conducted as part of the course for global hegemony.

The US tries to derive maximum benefits from the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where due to their interference there took place a change of presidents. The task is set to reinforce positions in Sudan and South Sudan. The provisional state power bodies are pressurized to implement the agreements on peaceful “transit to democracy”. The attempts are made to draw the new leaders of Ethiopia and Angola in the sphere of American influence. In Libya, while claiming to be “a neutral mediator”, the US intends to control the process of political settlement and to cajole the parties of the conflict into a compromise which will make the United States the dominant foreign partner of the country’s post conflict leadership.

Published: September 2020

Technology has significantly brought changes in all aspects of human life, the changes that occur require everyone to change from old habits to new habits that are not used to be done. Changes in general in face-to-face classes began to shift to virtual classes. Even the elements of education have undergone many changes both parents, students and teachers. They experience new teaching patterns and ways of teaching. Learning places are transformed and can be done at home, public places, and so on. Time and place are no longer a barrier to teaching and learning activities because they can be done online. Online learning is carried out by utilizing existing technology through media that uses the internet to carry out teaching and learning processes such as cellphones and laptops. This media will support the teaching and learning process through available applications such as whatsApp, google classroom and so on. Learning brings many challenges and obstacles faced by parents in particular.

Screen time as an index of family distress
Authors: Hartshorne Joshua K. , Huang Yi Ting , Oppenheimer Kathleen , Robbins Parker Tory , Molina María Daniela Velasco , Aulestia Pablo Martín Lucio Paredes
Published: September 2020

The increase in children's screen time over the last few decades has concerned parents, educators, and policymakers alike, due to its association with negative developmental outcomes. Interventions have focused on educating parents about the apparent dangers and coaching them on how to limit screen time. Such interventions are unlikely to be effective if screen time is driven less by parental preference than by parental necessity, supplementing insufficient adult caretaker availability. We show that during the COVID crisis, screen time increased dramatically as a direct result of sudden decrease in adult caretaker availability. This indicates that lower screen time rates prior to the pandemic were not (merely) a function of well-informed parenting but of well-resourced parenting. We discuss implications for policy, as well as for the ongoing scientific debate about whether screen time is actually problematic for development.

Authors: Nazmul Abdul Kader , Islam Nazrul , Alam Md. Mahmudul
Published: September 2020

Glass ceiling is an important issue in the developed world, but there are few studies on the developing world, especially on the private sector of Bangladesh. Therefore, this study aims to determine the influences of the factors of glass ceiling on the job satisfaction and job switching decisions among the female employees in the private sector of Bangladesh. This study conducted structured questionnaire surveys on 192 female employees from two private sector industries – banking and telecommunication in Bangladesh. The data were collected in December 2013 by using random sampling technique. The study used Ordered Logit and Binary Logit regressions. The study found that women employees working in banking sector hold more job satisfaction than those of telecommunication sector. Further, the study found that glass ceiling related variables has no significant relationship with the job satisfaction of women employees but there are several glass ceiling factors that statistically significantly influence on the decisions of changing or switching the existing jobs of women employees. Those who feel they are discriminated by any male colleague or being discriminated to move to higher level management positions or discriminated for promotions or holding less job security are likely to change their existing jobs. To improve the situation, several initiatives need to be taken in the organization like awareness building, standard and ethical human resource practices, strict policies for discriminatory attitudes and behavior etc.

Published: September 2020

This study uses a natural experiment and machine learning to examine how threats shift immigrants' political attention from their home country to host society. We trace how the September 11 attacks, an exogenous shock, increased Arab and Indian Americans' interest in U.S. domestic politics. We classified 5,684 Arab American and Indian American newspaper articles using machine learning. We estimated that three more articles on U.S. domestic politics were published daily in the post-9/11 period than in previous years. We found that the intervention produced a 46% smaller effect among the host population by analyzing 23,086 New York Times articles. The findings demonstrate how threats shift the locus of targeted immigrant groups' political attention.

Published: September 2020

Background: For many decades, hypertension guidelines have recommended dual-arm blood pressure
measurement. However, the practice is poor in Nigerian primary care and its significance largely
unidentified. Hence, the need to determine the significance of detecting inter-arm blood pressure difference
among primary care patients in our local population. This study was done to determine the point prevalence
of inter-arm blood pressure difference and its relationship with hypertension and diabetes mellitus.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 214 respondents at the general outpatient clinic of
a tertiary hospital in Nigeria. Demographic characteristics and anthropometric indices were obtained. Blood
pressure readings were obtained through sequentially repeated measurements in respondents’ arms.
Results: One hundred and eighty-six respondents had complete data given a completion rate of 86.9%.
Systolic blood pressure was higher on the right and left arm in 102 (54.8%) and 56 (30.1%) of the
respondents respectively. Diastolic blood pressure was higher on the right and left arm in 73 (39.2%) and
63 (33.9%) of the respondents respectively. The overall prevalence of significant systolic inter-arm
difference (≥ 10 mmHg) and diastolic inter-arm difference (≥ 10 mmHg) were 24.2% and 18.8%
respectively. Significant systolic inter-arm difference (p=0.033) and diastolic inter-arm difference (p=0.01)
were significantly more among respondents with hypertension and/or diabetes mellitus.
Conclusion: The blood pressure readings in both arms were different among majority of the
respondents, being higher on the right arm in more of them. The prevalence of significant inter-arm
difference was high in the unselected primary care patients studied especially among patients with
hypertension and/or diabetes mellitus. Blood pressure measurement in both arms should become a
routine practice during initial patients’ visits in primary care.

Are We Still Illyrians?
Authors: Higgins Valerie
Published: September 2020

This paper examines the changing attitudes of young Albanian archaeologists to Albania’s archaeological heritage. As Cold War archaeologists retire and are replaced by a generation trained after the fall of communism, this paper asks how their different world perspective will influence the future direction of archaeology. Particular issues that are addressed are the perceived role of the Illyrians in national identity and the willingness of young archaeologists to embrace new types of heritage sites, such as industrial and Cold War archaeology. Examples of the latter are very prominent in the Albanian landscape, but their interpretation and incorporation into the national narrative are still contentious issues for many.
Frontiers of Romania: Nationalism and the Ideological Space of the Roman Limes
Authors: Hanscam Emily R.
Published: September 2020

Modern Romania is a nation-state containing space which has long been considered marginal - first as part of the Roman Empire and now within the European Union. The national narrative of Romania highlights this liminality, focusing on the interactions between the Romans and the local Dacians on the northeastern border regions of the Empire. Romania still contains significant material remnants of the Iron Age, including the Roman Limes, a series of fortifications on the Danube River meant to protect the Roman borders. As such, the archaeological tradition of this geographic space is heavily entangled with Romania’s identity as a frontier region. This paper outlines the formation of Romanian national space, focusing on the period between the seventeenth century and 1918. It considers the relationship between the materiality of the Roman Limes and ideological frontiers in Romania, examining the role of archaeology in the sustainment of the Romanian nation space.
Thracology and Nationalism in Bulgaria. Deconstructing Contemporaneous Historical and Archaeological Representations
Authors: Marinov Ivan , Zorzin Nicolas
Published: September 2020

It is now widely acknowledged that Bulgarian academic discourses of the country’s so-called communist era (1945-1989) were heavily politicized with the aim of nationalizing and ethnicizing the history of the Bulgarian people. This communist era phenomenon subscribes to a chronologically vaster process of nationalist continuum recognized to have spanned from the middle-end of the nineteenth century to at least the early 1990s. Despite this trend, Bulgarian academics, especially in the field of archaeology, have more recently presented their post-communist, transition period disciplines as ideology-free, objective, scientific research.

In this paper, we provide examples of recent theoretical developments and interpretations in the sub-field of thracology – studies of ancient Thracian culture – that indicate that this claim to objectivity is unfounded. Based on the examples provided we argue that not only have Bulgarian academic discourses in the fields in question not severed with the ethnicizing practices of the so-called nationalist continuum of the pre-communist and communist eras, but they are now flourishing on the nationalist foundation of the preceding century and a half. As such discourses are reproduced unquestioningly in specialized publications, their influence on right wing populism is incontestable as they provide the latter, wittingly or not, with the scientific authority it needs to justify its ethnicizing of “historical” tenets of racial and social discrimination.

Published: September 2020

Lack of motivation to carry out rehabilitation exercise from a hand injury or stroke is one of the most challenging aspects faced by Occupational Therapy (OT) and Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants (COTA). Some patients refuse to exercise due to behavioral, psychological, or cognitive reasons. We hypothesize that recovery to their former activity level and strength can be quickened if we develop Augmented Reality (AR)/Virtual Reality (VR) games which add fun into rehabilitative hand exercises. A physical card game for hand rehabilitation, which contains puzzle pieces and rehabilitative exercise instructions, is designed and developed to trigger the display of an Augmented Reality virtual reward upon completion of the puzzle. User testing results are promising. Users find it easy to use, supportive, efficient, exciting and interesting; suitable for either individual or collaborative play. Being object-oriented, it is also scalable, extensible and easily portable. An extended Leap-Motion-enhanced AR environment for limb rehabilitation is being developed. We hope that both will improve physical, mental and socio-cognitive health.

Authors: Salim Saema , Ali Qamar
Published: September 2020

Hydrazones are a unique division of compounds found in various syntheses. They have an important role in synthetic chemistrydue to their different biological properties, such as antifungal, anticonvulsant, antibacterial, antimalarial, anti-inflammatory and anti-TB properties. This paper reports the syntheses of a series of 3 hydrazones based on the condensation of 2,4-dimethylphenyl hydrazine HCl with different aromatic carbonyl compounds. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by EIMS. These compounds can act as ideal candidates in chemosensor chemistry.
EVALUATION OF APPROPRIATENESS IN PRESCRIPTION OF GERIATRIC POPULATION IN RESIDENTS OF OLD AGE HOMES USING MAI CRITERIA

Published: September 2020

WHO evaluated that in every nine people there is one elderly individual, i.e. of age >60 years. Compared to young adults, elderly persons have more illnesses, as ageing is often accompanied by chronic diseases, co-morbidity, disability and social isolation. MAI was developed to evaluate appropriateness of medications in all age group. Objective of the study was to assess polypharmacy and appropriateness in prescription. A cross sectional study was carried out for a period of 6 months to assess medication appropriateness. Patients of both sexes above 60 years of age, with at least one chronic illness were included. Out of 481 drugs 32 drugs were marginally inappropriate and 53 drugs were inappropriate according to MAI criteria and 12 participants were completely frail according to GFI (GFI Score ≥4). Polypharmacy and PIM are highly prevalent in geriatric population, which has a major health care outcome. Standard criteria should be considered before prescribing the medications in geriatric population.

Keywords: Geriatrics, polypharmacy, MAI.
PRIORITIZATION OF KEY ACTIVITIES ON ESTABLISHMENT OF BPM PRACTICE IN APPAREL ORGANIZATIONS
Authors: DOBROSAVLJEVİĆ Andrea , UROŠEVİĆ Snežana
Published: September 2020

The research is approached with the assumption that business process management (BPM), as well as other management practices, is subject to a specific adoption manner by taking certain steps and activities as a priority in accordance with the characteristics of the industry. The apparel industry is considered to be particularly specific because it has labor-intensive and creative character, it is necessary to acquire certain professional knowledge and skills, the female labor force is dominant, and that micro, small and medium-sized enterprises are present in the largest number. Based on the experts' evaluation of specifics importance, activities that influence the adoption of BPM practice are ranked. Weighting coefficients of specifics were obtained based on the application of a pairwise comparison matrix, while prioritization of activities was performed using the WASPAS method, whereby the priority of defining process roles and responsibilities is determined. The Pareto diagram gives a situational presentation of results.
STATISTICAL PROCESS CONTROL METHODS FOR DETERMINING DEFECTS OF DENIM WASHING PROCESS: A TEXTILE CASE FROM TURKEY
Authors: ATA Serhat , YILDIZ Mehmet Selami , DURAK İsmail
Published: September 2020

The denim garments, which are made with many different sewing patterns, are given the final appearance by applying industrial washing processes and these are turned into high value-added fashion products. In this study, denim fabric control performed in a textile company, washing department after weaving for one month was investigated and as a result, washing defects are examined using statistical methods. Pareto analysis, cause and effect diagram and 𝑝 control graphs, which are statistical process control methods, were used to classify the defects seen as a result of quality control. In Pareto analysis, chemical repair (20, 52 %), blue floor (19, 86 %), chemical-intensive (19, 56 %), light floor (10, 71 %), deep floor (7, 95%) are in first five places among 53 defects and account for 78, 6 % of total number of defects. Of the 53 defects encountered during the washing process, it is found that only five of these defects could be prevented during the washing process, thus reducing the total waste by about 80%. In cause and effect diagram, washing defects are divided into categories as chemical, foreground, intensity, repair, tinctorial and processual and sub-dimensions as causes are determined. In the Laney P control chart, all processes are found under control.
I territori dell'auto elettrica: oltre il paradigma urbanocentrico
Authors: Pucci Paola
Published: September 2020

L'articolo propone quattro scenari per restituire diverse intensità/modalità/velocità di diffusione dei veicoli elettrici nella Regione urbana milanese. Gli scenari, costruiti con un'analisi multicriteri che analizza le relazioni tra mobilità elettrica, pratiche di mobilità, caratteristiche socio-economiche e insediative, offrono elementi per definire politiche di incentivo e di regolazione per una transizione sostenibile ed equa verso una mobilità a basse emissioni di carbonio.
I diritti fondamentali fra ‘Carta dei diritti UE' e "costituzionalismo multilivello"
Authors: Gambino Silvio
Published: September 2020

L'articolo esamina la protezione dei diritti fondamentali nella prospettiva del processo di in-tegrazione europea e delle sue relazioni con l'ordine costituzionale interno nel quadro del costituzionalismo multilivello. In tale contesto, recenti nuovi indirizzi della giurisprudenza costituzionale sottolineano come il giudice nazionale ordinario sia chiamato a occupare un ruolo di crescente importanza nei rapporti con il Giudice costituzionale e nel dialogo con il Giudice dell'Unione (CGUE). Tali indirizzi restituiscono una nuova centralità alla ‘dottrina dei controlimiti' rispetto alla dottrina della CGUE sul primato del diritto dell'Unione con riguardo alle disposizioni costituzionali in tema di principi e di diritti fondamentali. In tale prospettiva, il testo esamina sia il tema dei rapporti fra libertà fondamentali economiche e processo di integrazione europea sia solleva interrogativi sul livello di protezione giurisdi-zionale di tali libertà fondamentali fra costituzioni nazionali e diritto primario dell'Unione.
