MECHANISM OF MARINE POLLUTION - THE CASE OF PAKISTAN
Authors:   Bahria University, Sherazi Sadia
Published: June 2023

The aim of this paper is to study the major causes of marine pollution & its negative effects on coastal areas of Sindh and Balochistan in Pakistan; the role of the regulatory setup to control marine pollution; and the status of local & international legal implications in Pakistan. In addition, due to ports & shipping developments/activities, they are causing environmental and human health problems by disrupting the ocean ecosystem and biota. This paper also identifies the direct and indirect sources of marine pollution through ports & shipping activities, infrastructural developments, and the discharge of wastes into the sea from different sources. It also explores the failures of the system to control marine pollution due to the lack of political will, unsustainable management practices, lack of traditional knowledge and modern standards and technologies, lack of community participation, and not ratifying the mandatory laws and conventions on marine pollution nor proper implementation of them. The analysis indicates the weakness of the implications of the legal setup as per international standards (by the International Maritime Organization (IMO)). The results showed that only pollution by ports and shipping activities is an insignificant reason for the weakness of the shipping business. The analysis shows that legal bodies, the Ministry of Maritime Affairs (MOMA), associated organizations, policy matters, the role of ports of Sindh and Balochistan, and coastal communities have less understanding about management and procedures to control pollution in the coastal areas and in the sea. It can be concluded that pollutants can cause a variety of biological effects, including metabolic dysfunction, genetic damage, and phonological changes. Therefore, it is recommended that the government formulate specific policies within the framework of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 14)-2015-2030 and UN Ocean Decade Challenges for 2021–2030 that would develop the significant objectives and implementation plans for the green environment, which would contain potential procedures for the sustainable growth of ports and shipping businesses through compliance with IMO standards and maintain the positive relationship between national and international levels.

Authors: Damasceno Márcia de Souza
Published: June 2023

As social distancing was officially recognized worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the physical presence of teachers and students in the traditional classroom has been abruptly replaced by a digital environment in an online class. Visual literacy is directly related to understanding that visual information is an ornament of verbal information and a semiotic element that adds meaning to the text. Due to the multimodal language of comics, which provides a fruitful situation for constructing meaning during remote emergency learning, the relevance of the topic has been verified. Thus, this paper aims to present insights concerning the use of classic literature in comic book format. In this sense, the theoretical basis was built with the contributions of authors who corroborate the discussions presented here, anchored in the proposal of a didactic sequence carried out with elementary school students in the city of Barra do Garças - MT (Brazil), amid the pandemic context. The results revealed a change in the student's perception, even though the verbal language is predominant over the image. Regarding the classic literary works, it was noticed that the language change facilitated the understanding of the text read, making the reading enjoyable and exciting and making a bridge between past and present.

Signature dating
Authors: Ledić Andrea
Published: June 2023

The most common question that a handwriting expert is confronted with is to determine whether or not the signature or handwriting in question is authentic or forged. Moreover, in many cases, the request is to determine if the date on the document is the actual date the document was created or if the document has been backdated. Two methods of examination can be applied for the latter: the ink dating method as a destructive method or the signatures and handwriting dating method as a non-destructive method. This case study aims to show the changes that occur in a person's signature over time. During the secret investigation phase, the Croatian State Prosecutor's Office for the Suppression of Organized Crime and Corruption sent the Forensic Science Centre two Annexes to professional playing contracts containing two signatures in the name of Luka Modric. The experts were asked to determine if the questioned signatures were authentic and other facts relevant to the investigation (backdating etc.). The results obtained have shown clear variations/developments in known signatures over time without applying any destructive method.
Income Elasticity of Imports and External Constraint in Periods of Commodity Export Boom: Evidence for the Brazilian Economy
Authors: Orsolin Teixeira Felipe , Missio Fabrício José , Dathein Ricardo
Published: June 2023

The work proposal includes verifying: i) whether the increase in the income elasticity of demand for imports (IEDI) in Brazil (between 1997q1 and 2018q4 ) can be explained by the increase in exports; ii) whether this could have occurred as a result of the increase in commodity exports; iii) the mechanisms by which the increase in IEDI occurred, whether through final consumption goods or through intermediate goods; iv) whether this should be considered in models that explain economic growth through the performance of the balance of payments (Thirlwall's Law). Then, to test this, we propose estimates a modified version of the multi-sectoral Thirlwall Law (MSTL). The vector autoregressive (VAR) methodology and the vector error correction model (VECM) were used in the estimations. The results showed that the growth of commodity exports has a significant impact on the increase in the IEDI in the analyzed period, which limits the possibilities for the Brazilian economy to reach a balanced growth trajectory with a higher growth rate in the long term.
¿Sirven los controles de capitales para morigerar los shocks financieros globales?
Authors: Brest-López Caterina , Carrera Jorge , Montes Gabriel , Toledo Fernando
Published: June 2023

Este trabajo estudia si los controles a la movilidad internacional de capitales atenúan el impacto de los shocks financieros en la entrada (definido como venta neta de activos domésticos a no residentes) y salida de capitales (definido como compra neta de activos externos por parte de residentes). Se estiman modelos de datos en panel dinámicos con datos trimestrales para 17 economías emergentes durante 2001-2015 para analizar el efecto de la interacción entre índices de controles a la movilidad con variables de shocks a la política monetaria de los Estados Unidos sobre los flujos de capitales. Los principales resultados indican que las variables de interacción resultan estadísticamente significativas para morigerar la entrada de capitales especulativos. Por el contrario, los controles a la salida no tienen un efecto significativo. Estos hallazgos asimétricos indican que los controles a la entrada son un elemento relevante para la decisión de cartera de los no residentes, pero que los controles a la salida de capitales no son efectivos para las decisiones de los residentes (acumulación de activos externos por parte de residentes).

Authors: Miao Sisi , Lu Lin , Si Shengyong , Peng Dandan , Zhong Ya , Li Zhijing , Yu Zhenqiu
Published: June 2023

Background: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in Cushingžs syndrome (CS). Primary bilateral macro-nodular adrenal hyperplasia (PBMAH), is a rare cause of CS that is clinically distinct from the other common types of CS, but cardiac characteristics have been poorly studied. Methods: The clinical data, steroid hormones and echocardiographic variables of 17 patients with PBMAH were collected. Twenty-one CS patients with cortisol-producing adenoma (CPA) were collected as controls. The similarities and differences of clinical and cardiac features between the two groups were compared. Results: In the PBMAH group, the proportion of female was lower (35.30 vs 100.00%), the age was older (55.76 ± 2.42 years vs 39.57 ± 2.72 years), and the course of disease was longer 13.00 (5.00, 21.50) years vs 1.58 (1.00, 5.00) years. The proportion of PBMAH patients with hypertension was higher than that of CPA patients (100.00% vs 61.90%). Plasma cortisol and 24h urinary free cortisol (24h UFC) were lower in PBMAH patients than that in CPA patients morning cortisol 19.50 (15.35, 24.48) mg/dL vs 28.30 (22.88, 29.89) mg/dL, 24h UFC 106.20 (65.35, 156.58) vs 506.23 (292.53, 712.18) mg. The PBMAH group had longer right ventricular diameter (24.06 ± 1.23 mm vs 20.48 ± 0.83 mm), left atrial diameter (39.41 ± 1.15 mm vs 32.86 ± 0.76 mm), and a higher rate of diastolic dysfunction (76.50% vs 38.10%) than the CPA group. Univariate regression analysis showed that combination of hypertension and duration of hypertension had significant effects on left atrial diameter (b=6.383, P=0.001; b = 0.276, P<0.001, respectively) and E/A ratios (b=-0.496, P< 0.001; b=0.022, P<0.001, respectively). Multivariate regression analysis showed that corticosterone level had a significant effect on systolic blood pressure (b=6.712, P=0.025). Conclusion: Comparing to the CPA, ventricular diastolic dysfunction was common in PBMAH patients under relatively lower cortisol level. PBMAH had high corticosterone levels which may play a role in the development of hypertension and further cardiac changes.

Structured Electronics Design: a conceptual approach to amplifier design
Authors: Montagne Anton
Published: June 2023

Many people consider analog electronic circuit design complex. This is because designers can achieve the desired performance of a circuit in many ways. Together, theoretical concepts, circuit topologies,electronic devices, their operating conditions, and the system's physical construction constitute an enormous design space in which it is easy to get lost. For this reason, analog electronics often is regarded as an art rather than a solid discipline. Structured Electronics Design: - Defines a step-by-step design process and indicates which design question is answered at each step. - Properly orders and orthogonalizes the design steps, based on solid principles from systems engineering, physics, signal processing, control theory, and network theory. - Helps circuit designers efficiently and effectively obtain the desired performance-cost ratio. - Provides a solid foundation for circuit design education and automation. - Has been developed and educated since the 1980s at the Delft University of Technology.
Menilik Aspek Kebahasaan Mistik Dalam Ajaran Manunggaling Kawula Gusti Syaikh Siti Jenar
Authors: Jumadissaniyah Sitorus Nurul , Muhammad Ichsan Sayed
Published: June 2023

Syaikh Siti Jenar merupakan sosok yang kontroversial, terlihat dari corak kebertuhanan Jenar yang mengutamakan hakikat daripada syari’at. Manunggaling Kawula Gusti selaku puncak kebertuhanan Jenar ikut membagikan andil dalam kekontroversialan Jenar. Bagi orang Jawa ajaran Manunggaling Kawula Gusti ialah ilmu tingkatan tinggi buat mendapatkan derajat kesempurnaan hidup yang dapat dicapai dengan menjauhi amarah, lawamah, sufiah, serta memupuk nafsu muthmainnah. Dalam ajaran Siti Jenar mengarahkan supaya seorang bisa lebih mengutamakan prinsip ikhlas dalam beribadah. Metode dari riset ini merupakan Library Research, dimana Penulis mengumpulkan data-data terpaut yang hendak dibahas dalam penyusunan ini. Hasil dari penelitian ini dapat dijelaskan diantaranya pertama, manusia, alam semesta serta Tuhan ialah perihal yang silih berkorelasi dalam pemikiran Jenar. Kedua, Jenar dalam ajarannya, sebetulnya bukan menjadikan dirinya selaku Tuhan, melainkan berbentuk wujud penghambaan makhluk yang setinggi-tingginya terhadap Tuhan. Ketiga, aspek kebahasaan dari sebutan Manunggaling bisa dimaknai dengan bersatunya seseorang hamba dengan Tuhan. Manusia yang bisa menggapai Manunggal dengan Tuhannya, hingga dia menggapai tingkatan Insan Kamil.
Weight Assessment of Marine Diesel Main and Auxiliary Engines
Authors: Dev Arun Kr , Saha Makaraksha
Published: June 2023

During the conceptual and preliminary ship design stages, designers must ensure that the selected principal dimensions and parameters are good enough to deliver a stable ship (statically and dynamically), besides deadweight and speed. To support this, the initial intact stability of the proposed ship must be calculated, and for that, the lightship weight and its detailed breakdown are necessary to be known. After hull (steel) weight, machinery weight, mainly marine diesel propulsion and power generation machinery, plays a vital role in the lightship weight estimate of a ship directly. It also affects the deadweight, displacement, draft, and trim, which finally influence stability. The correct estimation of respective weights improves calculating a ship’s initial stability, typically designed and built. Hence, it would be advantageous for the ship designer to convince the shipowner. Weight control is not easy, especially since its consequences in terms of deadweight and stability could be disastrous. It should start right at the beginning and control throughout the design and construction phases. Marine diesel main engines (MEs) and auxiliary engines (AEs) of various power output (generators output for AEs), engine speed, and cylinder number of different engine manufacturers are collected. These are analyzed and presented in tabular and graphical forms to demonstrate the possible relationship between propulsion engine weight and power generation engine weight, and their respective power, speed, and power–speed ratio. In this article, the authors have attempted to investigate the appraisal behavior of ME weight and AE weight regarding engine power, generator power, engine speed, and power–speed ratio (independent variables). Further attempts have been made to identify those independent variables that influence the weight of the propulsion engine and power generation engine (dependent variables) and their interrelationships. A mathematical model has thus been developed and proposed, as a guiding tool, for the designer to estimate the weight of main and AEs more accurately during the conceptual and preliminary design stages.
Design and stigma: the relation between mobility aid and stigmatization of older people
Authors: Rodrigues Yago Weschenfelder , Souza Fábio Feltrin de
Published: June 2023

Walking aids are part of the material culture of older adults. If, on the one hand, they bring security to this population, on the other, they trigger a stigmatization process that generates negative emotions. This research reflects on the power of design and its ability to stigmatize aging through product categories (canes, crutches, and walkers). The discussion is divided into three parts: I) Things and their meanings, II) The biomedical device and III) The stigma of design. In this way, we present how design knowledge is organized by the biomedical device (medical-hospital aesthetics) and how it stigmatizes mobility aids and the aged body. Finally, from an interdisciplinary perspective, this article has contributed to understanding the stigmatization process through the meanings attributed to materiality (product-body-prejudice-emotions-product).
