Authors: Maftuna Bakhtiyorova Nilufar Sadullaeva,
Published: February 2021

This article deals with the problems of naming in English and Uzbek languages. The main principles of formation of onomastic units are discussed and  the cultural bases of choosing the name are interpreted in the article as well. Theoretical views of well-known linguists are represented from the point of linguocultural aspect. The most important issue in this area was to determine what the Proper Nouns meant. In this paper, we will endeavor to prove the assertion, at the same time accounting for some of the motivations upon which Proper Nouns appear. It may cover the wide range of linguistic and extralinguistic motivations underlying the lexical units – Proper Nouns. Proper Nouns in most cases are not simply a tool of naming, but as linguistic unit they can render an information about the owner. A new exploration of a certain phenomenon, a new perspective for its consideration and contain a new moral and ethical assessment of the phenomenon. Based on this, this article presents linguistic features of Proper Nouns in speech, ethno-linguistic, ethno-cultural, sociolinguistic problems of naming the objects. The analogies and differences between the linguistic phenomenon of Proper Nouns and Common Nouns have been examined in detail.
Epic To Pandemic: A Perspective On Gender Dichotomy And Conflict With Self (With Reference To Mahabharata And Modern Society)
Authors: Dr. Yashoda Verma Ritu Raj Choudhary,
Published: February 2021

From the Paleolithic era till the modern times of current Pandemic, human race has witnessed not only biological evolution but also sociocultural one. Gender has always been an important consideration in development of civilizations. Without much change, the world has been perceived only in binary oppositions which consign the social structure only in heteronormative ideal of having an adamant notion of a man or woman, their social practice, behavior and fixed identities. Contemporary Post-modernist Indian writers through their writings shamble the power hierarchy and reconsider these social practices, softening the gender distinctions. Based on these literary texts of gender dichotomy in terms of non-normative sexual identities from the epic Mahabharata presented in the book The Pregnant King, this paper is an attempt to reinterpret the gender transgression and psychological issues which testifies unawareness of a double marginality, a perspective on latent conflict between society and individuals, an inequality felt by the victims in terms of gender from Mahabharata India till today. These complex areas need to be dealt with more conscious interventions, somewhat deconstruction of queerness is required and the ideas that question fixed notions of heterosexual society indicate empirical enquiries. Today’s society seems more sensitive towards understanding the difficult emotions connected to objective sexuality and preferences - a person’s discomfort in accepting gender-based restrictions. Need of the hour is to ponder on the subtle yet significant questions like-What happens if one desires toexperience life regardless of his/her gender? Why there is a contradiction on the part of how societies are preaching and practicing value systems which welcome idea of rainbow structure and individual freedom. Though many cultures have moved towards a more egalitarian social system over past centuries but still patriarchy has a strong influence on modern civilization especially in context of India. For improving life satisfaction and promoting happiness, there is need of a more aware society where one has the ability to choose circumstances of one’s life.

Published: February 2021

The number of Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia reached 64,194,057 units in 2018 and made a good impact on Indonesia’s economy. However, it turns out that SMEs face various problems, such as business strategy, marketing, and branding. Only 12% of SMEs currently use digital as one of their platforms and most of these businesses are still in stagnant condition. Currently, SMEs are starting to use influencers as their marketing strategy on Instagram. However, it is difficult to find a suitable influencer for their product or service due to so many influencers with various categories. The market potential in this field is quite high considering that Indonesia has the largest number of social media users in the world, especially Facebook and Instagram. Globally 5-10 billion USD marketing is done through influencer marketing in 2020, 65% of companies plan to use more influencer marketing and 92% of customers trust personal recommendations more than conventional advertising. An analysis was conducted of the selection of Instagram influencers on the brand campaign in Indonesia through a case study from IAM.ID. This company provides solutions in the fields of influencer marketing and technology with influencers data analytics. IAM.ID services include content creations, endorsement, store visits, and influencer’s community. In this research, the hypothesis is based on the level of engagement and influencer category. Influencers are considered more effective if they match the advertised brand. Influencer data analytics are obtained from engagement rate (ER) influencers, the number of followers, influencer categories, and content analysis. Brand analysis is obtained from brand preferences obtained through questionnaires. Then a correlation analysis was carried out on the ER campaign and the result was that both the number of followers and ER influencers had a strong relationship to the ER campaign. Besides, the suitability of the influencer category can also be checked using content analysis.
A Study on the Heat Transfer Rate Performance of the Hot Water Circulating in the Tubes in the Hot Water Panels Laid in the Walls and Floor of a Small Leisure Cabin in Relation to Changes in the Temperature and Flow Rate of the Hot Water
Authors: Cho Dong-Hyun
Published: February 2021

In this study, hot water panels were laid in the three walls as well as the floor of a small leisure cabin to implement radiant heating with the heat supplied by the hot water circulating inside the hot water tubes in the hot water panels. As a result of the study as such, compared to the forced convection heating at the current technology level in which air is forced to circulate by the air conditioner, the radiant heat transfer by the hot water panels laid in the floor and walls of the small leisure cabin in this study implemented more comfortable heating and wellbeing heating beneficial to health because it implemented heating without any movement or circulation of air. In addition, this study investigated heater accessories suitable for small leisure cabins not larger than 6 m2 to significantly reduce thermal energy and manufacturing costs. The thermal energy lost by hot water per unit time and the thermal energy obtained by air inside the small leisure cabin per unit time coincided well at the accuracy of ±5%. Therefore, the reliability of the result of the heat transfer rate accuracy experiment in this study was secured. As the mass flow rate of the hot water increased, the heat transfer rate performance of the small leisure cabin improved. In addition, as the mass flow rate of hot water increased, the heat transfer rate performance of the small leisure cabin improved linearly.

In spite of the fact that endless arrangements are given for these issues, still there is no fitting answer for street mishap recognition. Likewise, because of the deferral in arriving at the emergency vehicle to the mishap area and accordingly the gridlock in the middle of the mishap area and clinic expands the probabilities of the passing of the person in question. Thus, it is needed to give handheld answer for the general public.This paper introduces a handheld solution to reduce the loss of life due to accidents and the time taken by the ambulance to reach the hospital. First, the proposed system finds out the road accidents automatically with the help of sensors in intelligent vehicles.  Second, an alert is sent to all nearby hospitals after the road accident. This system maintains a database server which holds all hospital details in around the city. A GPS or GSM gadget in the concerned vehicle will send the area character of the mishap to the close by medical clinics through primary worker and afterward a rescue vehicle from very closest clinic is shipped off the mishap spot. Alongside these, there would be an effect of traffic inside the way of the emergency vehicle utilizing RF correspondence. This will limit the hour of ambulances to arrive at the clinic.Third, this system maintains another database for all kind of mechanical services. This system provides support to the roadsiders while the vehicle got breakdown or any other service issues in the vehicle. It also saves the time of the driver and unnecessary delay. Altogether, this system provides the appropriate handheld solution to the vehicle drivers and the society.

Published: February 2021

L2 de-motivation has considerable role in diminishing or slowing down  the second/L2 (English) learning outcomes. However, L2 de-motivation in general and the context of Pakistan in particular is under-researched. So, the main purpose of the study is to identify various L2 de-motivational factors of the BS Undergraduate L2 learners of the Department of English of a remote and under-researched Kohat University of Science and Technology, Khyber Pakhtunhwa, Pakistan. Drawing upon the questionnaires of the well referenced L2 de-motivation experts and also adding some items related to gender and anxiety oriented L2 de-motivation, a modified closed ended questionnaire of 40 items was developed. The data was obtained from 400 (250 Male and 150 Females) L2 learners was analysed by applying the rarely used but much recommended exploratory factor analysis.  Total 08 L2 de-motivational factors emerged: Teacher, syllabus, non communicative methods, L2 anxiety, lack of classroom resources, unfavourable classroom environment and rarely noted gender related L2 de-motivational factors. Moreover, in this study in contrast to earlier studies in Pakistan, we are able to not only identify the various L2 de-motivational factors in well defined forms but also construct and validate the modified questionnaire with the help of applying factor analysis. Thus the questionnaire can be exploited for future research in field of L2 de-motivation in general and particularly in Pakistan. Similarly, unlike the earlier studies, learners' negative attitudes towards English and learning its culture did not emerge as a L2 de-motivational factor. Moreover, new but equally contesting gender related L2 de-motivational factor also emerged. This study highlights that L2 teachers should adopt motivating teaching methods,  interesting teaching materials and develop interesting syllabus. Moreover, L2 learners' needs analysis be given more importance for addressing their L2 de-motivation and thus enhancing their language proficiency in the Higher Education in Pakistan.

By giving exemption of liability of online intermediary services for Indonesia, it is also expected to create one comprehensive and codified regulation applied only for the general internet regime, or possibly only for online intermediary services. The current overlapping creates multiple impositions of rules. Online intermediary services providers are meant to only provide a platform or media for users to use the platform. This research aims to compare the online intermediary service provide between Indonesia and European Union. This a normative legal research using secondary data. The analysis was conducted using a qualitative approach. Results and discussion found that the E.U. E-Commerce Directive 2000/31 could be a reference for the Indonesian government to improve its regulations regarding e-commerce, especially in the online intermediary services provider. However, to adopt the E-Commerce Directive 2000/31 especially articles 12 to 14, where the exemption of liability is regulated, it needs some adjustment to be suitable for the Indonesian legal system and culture.

Cooperatives are the support of the national economic order which is an integral and inseparable part, so that’s why it is not only the mandate of the constitution but also becomes hopes in building the people's economy. This study utilized a sociological juridical approach by examining the rules, concepts, community views, legal doctrines obtained from secondary legal materials, as well as applicable laws and regulations relating to the issues discussed. The results found the factors that influence cooperative public policy that has not been able to play a role in the field of government construction services by basing on legal system theory are caused by 3 legal subsystem factors (first legal factors, second legal structure factors, and legal culture factors). Thus, based on the values of justice, it is necessary to reconstruct the laws and regulations, especially the provisions of Article 6, Article 15 and Article 16 of Law No. 25 of 1992 concerning cooperatives.

The current research aims to develop a hybrid metal matrix composition that focuses on the nickel alloy and its thermal properties. The different temperature ranges are used to analyze the function of MMCs such as thermal conductivity and coefficient of thermal expansion. This paper addresses the thermal properties obtained from a series of Al2O3 and TiO2 reinforced nickel alloy (ASTM A494 M), with dispersed particle sizes ranging from 40-45 microns of Al2O3 and 1-5 microns of TiO2. The quantity of the Al2O3 addition varies from 3-12 weight % and 9 weight % of TiO2 unvarying in the stages of three weight percentages. The microstructural investigation states that, because of the stir casting on the vortex, the distribution of reinforcements is uniform with a strong bond. With the increase in Al2O3 and TiO2 content in HMMCs, a thermal property is found to diminish significantly. The results indicate that the reinforcements have a major effect on the thermal expansion coefficient as well as on the thermal conductivity of the hybrid composites being produced. Various types of microstructural have been performed using electron microscopy scanning and EDAX. The limited examination of the exhaust valve of the I C engine shows that the nickel combination composites can be utilized as a substitute for the present valve material (Ni-Cr alloy steel). All tests acted in this investigation meet ASTM specifications.
Electromechanical delay in right bundle branch block: suggestive predictor of right ventricular systolic function

Published: February 2021

Background: RV dysfunction is a powerful predictor of prognosis in cardiopulmonary diseases. Recognition of RV dysfunction is clinically important, because impairment of RV systolic function is independently associated with adverse outcomes. ECG may serve as a simple tool for detection of underlying RV dysfunction in patients with RBBB.Methods: Patients with complete RBBB (n=225) who underwent ECG and echocardiography were screened from May 2017 to Jan 2019. Demographic, comorbidity data, ECGs and echocardiography were obtained. QRS and R’ duration was measured. RV dysfunction was defined by RV FAC<35%, TAPSE<17 and RV TEI Index>0.54.Results: As compared to normal RV function, patients with RV dysfunction showed reduced TAPSE and RV FAC and increased RV systolic pressure, RV dimension and RV myocardial performance index (all p<0.05). The R′ duration was significantly associated with RV FAC (r=-0.615, p<0.001), RV systolic pressure (r=0.138, p=0.008), RV dimension (r=0.189, p<0.001) and RV Myocardial Performance Index (r=0.190, p<0.001). On ROC curve analysis, V1R′ duration>100 ms was associated with RV dysfunction with 40% sensitivity and 90% specificity (AUC: 0.883; p<0.001). Lead V1 QRS duration>137 ms and the ratio of R′:QRS duration was also useful for predicting RV dysfunction (all p<0.001).  Conclusions: In patient with RBBB, the electromechanical delay has a correlation with RV systolic dysfunction. R′ prolongation in lead V1 can be a useful marker to determine the presence of underlying RV dysfunction as a non-expensive tool.
Standard operating procedure for paediatric inpatient care in a public general hospital in rural South India: a quality improvement project
Authors: Dhali Arkadeep , D'Souza Christopher
Published: February 2021

Background: The paediatrician stationed in a Public General Hospital noticed a significant number of complaints from the patient party about the delay in initial assessment and the quality of care provided in the hospital. This initiated the idea to review the standard of care given in the paediatric inpatient ward.Methods: Aiming to ensure proper management of children in the paediatric inpatient ward, a team was formed to improve inpatient care and daily functioning of the ward. A standard operating procedure (SOP) was formulated referring to the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM), while modifying it to suit available resources and manpower in the hospital. A series of interventions were implemented and assessed using plan-do-study-act (PDSA) cycles. The findings from the PDSA cycle of a previous intervention were used to implement change in the next intervention. The data was analysed to accept the change or to further modify it.Results: At the end of 3 months, improvement was noted with the increase in the bed occupancy rate by 22%, paediatric admission rate by 8%, bed turnover rate by 24%, percentage of new-borns exclusively breastfed from admission to discharge by 30%, and proportion of mothers given effective nutritional counselling by 35%. There was also decrease in the time taken for initial assessment by 50 minutes, average length of stay by 2 days and LAMA rate by 4%.Conclusions: In the span of few months, we were able to implement an SOP and bring a significant improvement in the quality of care provided.
