With increasing requirements for the professional training of a teacher, the issues of acquiring speech technique and improving his professional qualities are of particular importance. Democratization and humanization of the educational process in universities and schools requires a high level of professional skills from the current teacher. On the one hand, this is an important component of his pedagogical culture, and on the other hand, it is considered a condition for professional development and excellence. Solving the problem of a future teacher's speech technique involves changing the educational process at a pedagogical university, increasing attention to the student as a subject of educational and professional activity, individualizing his training, and developing flexible educational technologies. Since the teacher’s speech ensures the development of subject knowledge of students and makes it possible to fully and easily explain the educational material, it is important to use facial expressions, gestures, diction, speech, and even correctly breathing. A correctly formed teacher’s speech can become an impetus for the rational formation of student’s cognitive activity and is the main means in creating a positive psycho-emotional climate among the student community. Also, it asserts trust to the teacher and the relative behavior of students in the pedagogical process. Therefore, when teaching pedagogical disciplines at a university, it is necessary to pay special attention to the formation of the speech culture of future teachers.
(Re)Presenting Indigenous Histories of the First World War: Case Studies for Museums
Authors:   Queensland Museum, Cockburn Sylvia , Beetson Alethea
Published: February 2024

Over 1000 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander soldiers fought in WW1, at a time when they had few rights on home soil. While on active duty many of these soldiers received the same conditions and respect as their non-Indigenous counterparts. Yet when they returned it was back to a life of discrimination, and their stories were silenced. In the decades after the war, Indigenous voices were rarely present in the memorialising of the ANZAC legend. For museums trying to commemorate the centenary of WWI the absence of tangible collections relating to Indigenous soldiers presents a challenge. How do you exhibit what you do not have? In recent years the arts have been one of the most prominent means of drawing attention to the experiences of those who served. From the play Black Diggers to Tony Albert’s sculptural installation Yininmadyemi-Thou didst let them fall, leading artists have been creating spaces for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to commemorate family members’ contributions, and raise their stories into the collective Australian consciousness. This paper will explore the role that the arts can play in creating a true and representative ANZAC mythology within Australia’s cultural institutions.
The Last Resort: the experience of First World War returned soldiers in the Dunwich Benevolent Asylum and the Dunwich Inebriate Institution
Authors:   Queensland Museum, Jackson Lisa
Published: February 2024

Over 450 men who returned from fighting overseas during the First World War were admitted to the Dunwich Benevolent Asylum on North Stradbroke Island. The Asylum had been established at Dunwich in the 1860s to house and care for people who were unable to provide for themselves. Many returned soldiers who were suffering from the long-term effects of wounds, trauma, shell shock, gas, tuberculosis, venereal disease, and enduring mental illness sought shelter and support at Dunwich. Almost all the veterans who were admitted to the Asylum became inmates of the Inebriate Institution, which was part of the Asylum at the time. This was not necessarily because they were alcoholics, although some were, but also to create an illusion that the soldiers were receiving better treatment than the general population of the Asylum. Despite public concern and expectations that returned solders would be looked after well, the facilities at Dunwich provided the men with only their basic needs, and not the specialised medical care, psychological support and rehabilitation the returned soldiers required. Many soldiers died as inmates and were buried in the Dunwich cemetery in graves that are now unmarked. The experiences of these returned soldiers demonstrates the impact that a lack of understanding of war trauma had on the veterans who did not have the security and stability of family life to provide the environment necessary for recovery from wartime experiences. For men without families to nurture and support their return to civilian life, the Asylum was a place of last resort.
ACCURACY OF REPLICATION OF SURFACE TEXTURE WITH A CONTACT PROFILE METHOD
Authors: Baršić Gorana , Nujić Bernard , Šimunović Vedran
Published: February 2024

Surface texture is of great importance in specifying the function of a surface. The surface finish of products influences the friction performance, wear resistance, bearing, sliding, lubricating properties, functionality, etc. Replicas of surface textures are widely used in many industries for evaluating the condition of textures when no measurable surfaces are available for measurements or in the case of non-dismantled objects of immense dimensions. The replication’s reliability and accuracy are significant concerns in actual applications. Although there are several parameters, Ra and Rz are still most often defined in technical product documentation as the indicators of whether a surface texture is within certain tolerance limits. In real production conditions, tactile stylus profilometers are still the most common instruments for measuring surface texture. For all the reasons mentioned above, the accuracy of the Technovit® 3040 replica was analysed. The quality of the Technovit® 3040 replica was researched on 15 samples processed with six conventional machining methods. Average roughness parameters Ra and Rz were measured on original surfaces and then compared to replica surfaces. A qualitative comparison of the profile geometries of original surfaces and their replicas was discussed.
EFFECT OF Zr, Zn AND Cu ADDITIONS ON ELEVATED-TEMPERATURE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF AS-EXTRUDED Mg-3Sn-1Ca ALLOY
Authors: Jia Zheng , Yu Yongzhi , Fu Li , Hu Wenyi
Published: February 2024

In this study, the effects of Zr, Zn and Cu additions on the microstructure, room-temperature and high-temperature mechanical properties of an Mg-3Sn-1Ca alloy (from 25 °C to 250 °C) were studied. The results reveal that additions of Zr and Zn do not change the phase composition of the alloy, composed of CaMgSn and Mg2Sn phases. After the addition of Zn, the grains are significantly refined, the volume fraction of the second phase is increased and dispersed, and the Mg2Ca phase is precipitated. The grain refinement of Zr is better than that of Zn. After adding the Cu element, the Mg2Cu phase precipitates besides the CaMgSn phase. A comparison of mechanical properties shows that the alloy with Zr (TXK311) has the best mechanical properties at room temperature and high temperature, and the elongation of the TXK311 alloy can reach 68.3 % at 250 °C. The TXK311 alloy was comprehensively considered to find its optimum mechanical properties. The analysis shows that fine grains, a uniform phase distribution and texture play important roles in the deformation of the alloy.
NUMERICAL MODEL FOR OPTIMIZING THE PARAMETERS FOR LASER-BEAM WELDING OF A HIGH-TEMPERATURE MATERIAL
Authors: Palanivel R. , Krishnan Thiyagarajan Muthu , Alqurashi Yousef , Rasheed Mohammad Abdur
Published: February 2024

Ferritic stainless steel (FSS) is one of the high-temperature materials, used in many industries for sustainable applications such as power plants, automotive, offshore and chemical industries. Joining these materials is challenging due to the formation of an intermetallic and the grain growth with high-heat-input welding methods. Laser beam welding (LBW) that uses a low heat input was used successfully to join AISI 409 FSS tubes. In this work the welding speed and focal distance were varied as per a two-factor, three-level face-centred central composite design (FCCCD) to join AISI 409 FSS. A numerical model was developed to correlate the relationship between the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and LBW process parameters. The validation of the developed model was carried out using the analysis of variance. Both welding speed and focal distance have a significant effect on determining the UTS. The optimised process parameters provided for a better UTS as reported in this paper.

Introduction: The bodily and psychological changes of pregnancy can be a source of well-being, but also of vulnerability and psychological suffering. The aim of this study was to investigate pregnancy-related psychological reactions in Senegalese pregnant women. Methodology: This was a prospective, descriptive, and analytical study of pregnant women attended at the Mermoz Health Post in Dakar, Senegal from October 04, 2022, to December 26, 2022. We studied psychological reactions using the Brief Pregnancy Experience Scale, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale 21, the Marital Support Scale, and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Results: The emotional experience of pregnancy was intense for both positive and negative pregnancy-related elements. Nonetheless, elements perceived as positive were more frequent and more intense. The prevalence of stress symptoms was 25%, depressive symptoms 53%, and anxiety symptoms 75%. The negative psychological impact was closely linked to risk factors such as young age, singlehood, low pregnancy experience (gestational age and parity), and low marital support. Also, low self-esteem in 53.1% of our population was correlated with low marital support. Conclusion: Most pregnant women report a positive pregnancy experience, but this positive feeling does not exclude high levels of stress, anxiety, and depression.

Published: February 2024

El riesgo de lesión del ligamento cruzado anterior es multifactorial y son numerosas las pruebas que han ido utilizando para localizar posibles factores que incrementen el riesgo de lesión. El objetivo del presente estudio fue describir los déficits funcionales y las mecánicas del riesgo lesional para el ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) en jugadoras de fútbol de categoría semiprofesionales, así como correlacionar el riesgo de lesión de las jugadoras a través de una prueba funcional y otra de habilidad. En este estudio de caso participaron 17 jugadoras de fútbol femenino de categoría Primera Autonómica y Preferente Autonómica Femenina de un club de fútbol con rango de edad de 14 a 23 años (edad media 17,05±3,24 años). Se utilizó un día de entrenamiento normal para realizar las siguientes pruebas: Over Head Squat y Tuck Jump. Los resultados destacados fueron que la mayoría de jugadoras mostraron riesgo medio de lesión en la prueba funcional, por otro lado, no se mostraron asociaciones significativas entre las pruebas de Overhead Squat test (OHS) y Tuck Jump. Por tanto, se recomienda continuar con esta línea de investigación con la finalidad de detectar un posible sistema de pruebas óptimo para identificar el riesgo de lesión del LCA de forma individual en jugadoras de fútbol, y de este modo, ofrecer a los entrenadores la posibilidad de prescribir trabajo individualizado para alejar a cada jugadora de la lesión del LCA.

Published: February 2024

El objetivo de estudio fue analizar el “tiempo de raqueta a raqueta”, según el tipo de golpe durante el rally de jugadores menores de 11 años (sub-11) en competición, acorde a la reglamentación oficial de la Federación Mundial de Bádminton (WBF). Se presenta un estudio de tipo descriptivo de carácter observacional, donde se utilizó una muestra de 967 golpes realizados en 7 partidos individuales, correspondientes a 14 jugadores élite sub-11. El instrumento de video análisis para el análisis observacional fue el software “Kinovea-0.8.25”, mientras que el registro continuo de los golpes se realizó en el software informático “Microsoft Excel, 2016”. Las variables analizadas fueron el “tiempo de raqueta a raqueta” y el porcentaje de uso de cada golpe. Entre los resultados obtenidos se observa: a) una variación temporal del servicio de derecha entre 0,99 s y 1,51 s; b) un mayor uso del clear de derecha en mano alta, con un 85,08% del uso con respecto al resto de posibilidades de golpeo del clear; y c) un predominio en el uso del drive de derecha con 77,11% frente al drive de revés con 22,77%. Los resultados obtenidos muestran la existencia de una problemática en el desarrollo del juego en etapas formativas. Los jugadores tienden a realizar golpes de forma estandarizada, existiendo una falta de creatividad y conciencia táctica a la hora de variar el tiempo y el tipo de ejecución de dichos golpes. Es posible que uno de los motivos que generan este estilo de juego en etapas formativas, sea la falta de adaptación de las dimensiones del juego, y la falta de entornos que favorezcan un aprendizaje de corte comprensivo.
PRESENT SITUATION, DIRECTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT AND PROBLEMS OF TERRITORIAL ORGANISATION OF VITICULTURE IN THE MOUNTAINOUS SHIRVAN ECONOMIC REGION
Authors:   Institute of Geography named after H. Aliyev, Ministry of Science and Education of Azerbaijan, Baku, Azerbaijan, GAHRAMANOV Bakhtiyar
Published: February 2024

The study's main objective is to analyze the current state of the territorial organization of viticulture in the Mountainous Shirvan economic region for the period 2010-2021 and to determine the direction of its development. The study also examines the problems of specializing in wine growing as the main crop in the region. To this end, research objectives have been set, such as the determination of the rate of development of viticulture in the Mountainous-Shirvan economic region and the differences between economic regions in terms of the development of viticulture and the identification of the factors that have led to them, and detailed analyses have been carried out. In the article, the collection and analysis of statistical data, the ranking of the regions by the area of agricultural land and the working patterns of the people have been performed. The data of the State Statistical Committee and the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) are the main database of the research. The software ArcGis (10.3) has been used for the mapping of the territory. During the research carried out, an increase in the area under vines was observed in the region. However, the opposite trend, a decrease in production, was noted. At the same time, there has been a decline in productivity over the years. In individual economic districts of the region, including Shamakhi district, the area under vines increased by 41% and production by 3.5 times, while in Ismayilli district the area under vines increased by 21%, but production decreased by 25.2%. The main reason for this is that the productivity of the vineyards in the region has been reduced by up to two times as much. As a result, with the decline in productivity, the planting habits of the population and their interest in viticulture have diminished or shown only partial interest. There have been major changes in the area planted in the Agsu and Gobustan regions.In both regions, there was a change in agricultural area and, consequently, a decrease in vineyard planting. The interest in planting vineyards in the Agsu region, which was in third place in the planting ranking in 2015, has fallen to seventh place in 2021. It was found that viticultural specialisation was not clearly defined or registered by sector in the studies carried out in the region. The article concludes that, despite the presence of wineries in the region, viticulture is not the main area of specialisation. Due to a trend in production and productivity, it has been observed in certain regions that wineries have experienced a decline in supply.
Privacidad de grupo: un reto para el derecho a la protección de datos a la luz de la evolución de la inteligencia artificial

Published: February 2024

Uno de los derechos fundamentales que más afectados se ven por el desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial (IA) es el derecho a la protección de datos, que hasta ahora se ha caracterizado como un derecho de no injerencia o de primera generación. Debido al desarrollo de la IA basada en datos y la analítica de datos en masa (que permite microsegmentar a la población), el derecho a la protección de datos ha adquirido una dimensión colectiva que lo acerca a derechos de tercera generación, como el derecho a un medio ambiente saludable o el derecho de consumidores. La expresión «privacidad de grupo» ha sido precisada como la privacidad correspondiente a grupos definidos por cualquier característica o combinación de estas. En este trabajo propondremos una noción complementaria de privacidad de grupo, centrada en la defensa del derecho a un medio ambiente digital saludable.
Clinical assessment and patient education of chemical intolerance

Published: February 2024

Chemical intolerance (CI) is characterized by multi-system symptoms initiated by a one-time high dose or persistent low-dose exposure to environmental toxicants. Symptoms of this “medically unexplained illness” often include fatigue, headache, weakness, rash, mood changes, musculoskeletal pain, gastrointestinal, difficulties with memory, concentration, and respiratory problems. A general disease mechanism called toxicant-induced loss of tolerance (TILT) explains the initiation, symptoms, and intolerances to chemicals, foods, and medicines reported worldwide by individuals with this condition. TILT is a 2-stage disease process initiated by a major chemical exposure, or a series of low-level exposures, followed by multisystem symptoms and onset of new intolerances. Despite its prevalence of up to 20%, most primary care physicians are not aware of this disease process and thus have been unable to recognize patients with CI. This case series describes three family medicine clinic patients who had multisystem symptoms that were triggered by chemical exposures, saw multiple specialists with no improvement, who were eventually diagnosed with CI and went through a behaviorally based avoidance education program. This report describes the impact of a coordinated educational intervention for patients with CI. We offer several educational tools for health practitioners to discuss with their patients. These patient stories highlight the importance for physicians to be knowledgeable about CI in order to facilitate symptom reduction and improve the quality of life for these patients.
Assessment of compassion and empathy in students of health care professions
Authors: Rao Nallapu Samson Sanjeeva , Bhanu Sundeep G.
Published: February 2024

Compassion is one of the most important qualities expected and anticipated by patients from their healthcare professionals. Empathy is the ability to recognize and respond to others’ emotions. What differentiates compassion from empathy is the creation of a strong desire to reduce suffering.

To assess and compare compassion levels in students of MBBS, BSc Nursing and Bachelors in Physiotherapy (BPT) in a medical college.

This is a descriptive study done at the NRI Medical College in Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh state in India, The study involved students of 6 Semester MBBS (126), BSc Nursing 4 year (89) and 4 year BPT (48). The study instruments included the Compassion Score questionnaire & Toronto Empathy Questionnaire (TEQ) 3 which are both available freely in the public domain.

Compassion scores in male students had a mean of 58.6 (range 22 to 78 and SD 9.2). Compassion scores in female students have a mean of 59.0 (range 29 to 80 and SD 9.1). Overall compassion scores were highest in MBBS students, both males and females when compared to Nursing and Physiotherapy students. Empathy scores also followed the same statistically significant pattern. Among compassion components, kindness was highest in BPT students while common humanity was higher in the medical students.

MBBS students were seen to have significantly higher scores in all three negative components; indifference, separation and disengagement. It is proposed that the nature of training of nursing and physiotherapy students involves practical hands-on involvement in day to day care of their patients, while medical students are more involved in academic pursuits and less involvement with their patients during undergraduate training.

Efforts must be made to encourage all healthcare students to inculcate empathy and compassion when communicating with patients. Empathy can be enhanced by adding training courses and workshops to the curriculum to teach empathy to develop interpersonal skills. There is a need to use innovative and creative approaches like simulation, role playing, storytelling and reflective discussion.

Does board structure influence employee retention?: A systematic literature review
Authors: Haryanto Haryanto , Setiawan Amelia , Daryanto Wiwiek Mardawiyah
Published: February 2024

Employee Engagement (EE) has become a crucial element for the success of any organization. While psychology has conducted extensive research on EE, accounting has yet to give it the attention it deserves. This systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to explore the linkage between corporate governance (CG) practices and factors that drive employee engagement (EED) in greater detail. The review identified several key factors influencing EED: board composition, audit committees, top leadership expertise, network power, other stakeholders’ supervision, and above-board application. In particular, the study revealed that effective CG practices have positive EE consequences, such as increased staff morale, job satisfaction, and productivity, and decreased employee turnover rates. The study underlined the importance of an employee-centric culture that encourages empowerment and fosters a sense of belonging in achieving maximum business success. It suggests that companies must create a work environment that promotes EE, provides opportunities for growth and development, recognizes employee contributions, and fosters open communication and collaboration. By leveraging these insights, companies can enhance their business operations and achieve maximum success by fostering a culture of EE and empowerment. The study concludes that businesses prioritizing EE as a core value can create a sustainable competitive advantage, increase their reputation, and attract and retain top talent.

The paper presents the results of geoecological - pedological research of nickel (Ni) concentrations in the soil of the city of Tuzla. The main goal of the research was to determine the extent to which the soil of the city of Tuzla is contaminated with nickel and to determine the origin of pollutants. The 240 soil samples were collected during the terrain research, covering an area of 303 km2. The nickel concentration testing in soil samples was performed by mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) with a detection range of 0.1 - 10000ppm. Exceeding the maximum allowable concentrations of nickel, defined by the Ordinance on determining the allowable amounts of harmful and dangerous substances in the soil and methods of their testing was recorded in 99.16% of samples.

The range of determined nickel concentrations is 30 - 1437.7ppm, and the average value of all measured concentrations in the samples is 297.91ppm. The highest concentration of nickel was recorded in sample 64 (1437.7ppm), collected in the area of Lipnica. Out of 240 total analyzed soil samples, nickel concentrations were increased in 238 samples, in some places several tens of times larger than the allowed limit. Elevated concentrations were also recorded in sample no. 59 (1109.1ppm) in the area of Požarnica - Kovačica and in sample 189 (1005ppm) in the area of Slavinovići. At twenty locations, nickel concentrations vary from 500-1000ppm.

«Nunca nadie me lo había preguntado». El testimonio de menores de edad como fuente para la investigación histórica en Colombia
Authors: Castaño Zapata Daniel , Ruiz Romero Gabriel Alberto
Published: February 2024

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar la forma como ha sido acogida y vertida en el trabajo institucional de construcción de memoria la experiencia de las niñas, niños y adolescentes en el contexto de la guerra colombiana. El trabajo ha sido realizado a partir de una revisión de los informes realizados por el Grupo de Memoria Histórica de la Comisión Nacional de Reparación y Reconciliación y por el Centro Nacional de Memoria Histórica. El texto comienza mostrando la insuficiencia del lenguaje articulado para dar cuenta de la experiencia infantil y juvenil de la violencia; luego analiza cómo se han incorporado a los informes institucionales de memoria los testimonios de los y las infantes, para determinar la validez que allí se le ha dado el conocimiento que dichos testimonios pueden aportar. Finalmente, el artículo concluye que la experiencia infantil y juvenil del sufrimiento no se recrea en el trabajo institucional de la memoria, sino que tiene lugar una forma de injusticia epistémica que recae sobre los testimonios de niños, niñas y adolescentes en la medida en que se relativiza la importancia y centralidad que estos testimonios tienen como fuente de conocimiento sobre el pasado reciente violento colombiano.

Sonata n.1: Quedas de Iguaçu
Authors: Carvalho Dinorá de , Figueira Marina
Published: February 2024

Dinorá de Carvalho (1895-1980) foi uma grande compositora e pianista que está sendo ‘redescoberta’ e que, como muitas outras compositoras relevantes em sua época foram ignoradas ou raramente são abordadas nos livros e materiais adotados nas academias e conservatórios musicais. O projeto do Centro de Integração, Documentação e Difusão Cultural da Unicamp (CIDDIC) para editar e publicar a obra completa de Dinorá de Carvalho é uma iniciativa de grande importância para a documentação e preservação da música brasileira do século XX, sendo a presente publicação mais uma etapa na concretização desse projeto. A elaboração desta edição crítica originou-se da necessidade de resolver divergências e ambiguidades referentes à partitura da Sonata n.1 – Quedas de Iguaçu (1974) de Dinorá. Durante a pesquisa, consultamos diversas fontes e documentos de época, incluindo manuscritos, a edição publicada pela editora Arthur Napoleão, a gravação da obra, documentos datilografados, programas de concerto e recortes de jornais. Também consultamos outras obras de Dinorá de Carvalho, especialmente para piano. Esse levantamento forneceu informações não apenas para realizar a revisão da partitura da Sonata n. 1, mas também para compreender a obra e seu contexto histórico. Assim, na presente publicação, além da edição crítica da Sonata n. 1, fornecemos ao leitor uma breve biografia da compositora, uma apresentação e uma análise concisa da obra, além de informações sobre as fontes consultadas e sobre as decisões editoriais realizadas. Esperamos que essa publicação estimule mais performances da obra e uma melhor compreensão do pensamento musical de Dinorá de Carvalho.

Religion and Neoliberalism from the Periphery: Elements to Understand Conservatism in Brazil from The Large Evangelical Corporations of The State of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil).
Authors: Junior Paulo Gracino , Py Fábio
Published: February 2024

This article discusses the relationship between the discourse of evangelical churches and the production of conservative neoliberal political rationalities. We start from the premise that the Large Evangelical Corporations (in Brazil), operate within the neoliberal logic, and offer biographical solutions to social exclusion systems, indicating the individual and spiritual causes for poverty and suffering, while identifying the "deserving" of blessings, suggesting elevation through personal responsibility. In this turn, they merge self-entrepreneur individualism with rhetoric that interweaves elements of conservative communitarianism, such as tradition, naturalizing gender roles, and cultivating traditional family models, seen as key to rehabilitating the wider society. We hypothesize that, in the Brazilian case of the state of Rio de Janeiro, evangelical churches are central parts of this gear, acting as one of the main "resonance machines" (Connolly) of neoliberal policies, providing individualized solutions for structural systems of social exclusion, in a pedagogical, efficient and extensive manner. In this sense, this work benefits from fieldwork and interviews conducted in the state of Rio de Janeiro with its large evangelical churches.
Helicopter Planet Gear Rim Crack Diagnosis and Trending Using Cepstrum Editing Enhanced with Deconvolution
Authors: Sawalhi Nader , Wang Wenyi , Blunt David
Published: February 2024

Detecting gear rim fatigue cracks using vibration signal analysis is often a challenging task, which typically requires a series of signal processing steps to detect and enhance fault features. This task becomes even harder in helicopter planetary gearboxes due to the complex interactions between different gear sets, and the presence of vibration from sources other than the planetary gear set. In this paper, we propose an effectual processing algorithm to isolate and enhance rim crack features and to trend crack growth in planet gears. The algorithm is based on using cepstrum editing (or liftering) of the hunting tooth synchronous averaged signals (angular domain) to extract harmonics and sidebands of the planet gears, and low-pass filtering and minimum entropy deconvolution (MED) to enhance extracted fault features. The algorithm has been successfully applied to a vibration dataset collected from a planet gear rim crack propagation test undertaken in the Helicopter Transmission Test Facility (HTTF) at DSTG Melbourne. In this test, a seeded notch generated by an electric discharge machine (EDM) was used to initiate a fatigue crack that propagated through the gear rim body over 94 load cycles. The proposed algorithm demonstrated a successful isolation of incipient fault features and provided a reliable trending capability to monitor crack progression. Results of a comparative analysis showed that the proposed algorithm outperformed the traditional signal processing approach.
Granulation of Lithium-Ion Sieves (LISs) Using Biopolymers: A Review
Authors: Udoetok Inimfon A , Karoyo Abdalla H , Ubuo Emmanuel E , Asuquo Edidiong D
Published: February 2024

The high demand for lithium (Li) relates to clean renewable storage devices and the advent of electric vehicles (EVs). The extraction of Li ions from aqueous media calls for efficient adsorbent materials with various characteristics, such as good adsorption capacity, good selectivity, easy isolation of the Li-loaded adsorbent, and good recovery of the adsorbed Li ions. The widespread use of metal-based adsorbent materials for Li ions extraction relates to various factors: (i) the ease of preparation via inexpensive and facile templation techniques, (ii) excellent selectivity for Li ions in a matrix, (iii) high recovery of the adsorbed ions, and (iv) good cycling performance of the adsorbents. However, the use of nano-sized metal-based LISs is limited due to challenges associated with isolating the loaded adsorbent material from the aqueous media. Adsorbent granulation process employing various binding agents (e.g., biopolymers, synthetic polymers, and inorganic materials) affords functional particles with modified morphological and surface properties that support easy isolation from the aqueous phase upon adsorption of Li ions. Biomaterials (e.g., chitosan, cellulose, alginate, and agar) are of particular interest because their structural diversity renders them amenable to coordination interactions with metal-based LISs to form 3D microcapsules. The current review highlights recent progress in the use of biopolymer binding agents for the granulation of metal-based LISs, along with various crosslinking strategies employed to improve the mechanical stability of the granules. The study reviews the effects of granulation and crosslinking on adsorption capacity, selectivity, isolation, recovery, cycling performance and the stability of the LISs. Adsorbent granulation using biopolymer binders has been reported to modify the uptake properties of the bio-adsorbent materials to varying degrees, in accordance with the surface and textural properties of the binding agent. The review further highlights the importance of granulation and crosslinking for improving the extraction process of Li ions from aqueous media. This review contributes to manifold areas related to industrial application of LISs, as follows: 1) to highlight recent progress in the granulation and crosslinking of metal-based adsorbents for Li ions recovery, 2) to highlight the advantages, challenges, and knowledge gaps of using biopolymer-based binders for granulation of LISs, and finally, 3) to catalyze further research interest into the use of biopolymer binders and various crosslinking strategies to engineer functional adsorbent materials for application in Li extraction industry. Properly engineered extractants for Li ions are expected to offer various cost benefits in terms of capital expenditure, percent Li recovery, and reduced environmental footprint.

The aim of this research was to examine the feed rumen fermentation in the rumen of goat fed 4 different diets. This study was designed based on the Latin Square Design which consists of 4 diet treatments  with 4 replications in each diet treatment. A total of 4 male goats, with relatively the same weight and age, were randomly assigned to an individual metabolic cage fed with 4 diets. The four diets studied were R1: Elephant grass, R2: Mini elephant grass, R3: Panicum maximum grass and R4: Brachiaria decumbens grass. Each diet was added with 20% of rice bran. The result of this experiment indicated that there was no any significant effect of different diets on the pH values, concentrations of VFA (Volatile fatty acids), and Ammonia (NH3) in the rumen of goat. The pH values in the rumen of goat treated with R1, R2, R3, and R4 were 7.17, 7.12, 7.07, and 7.0, respectively. The concentration of ammonia (mM) in the rumen of goat treated with R1, R2, R3, and R4 were 4.6, 3.3. 4.5, and 4.1, respectively. Whereas the level of VFA (mM) in the rumen of goat treated with R1, R2, R3, and R4 were 40.4, 43.6, 48.7, and 49.9, respectively. There was no any significantly difference (p>0.05) in the characteristic of rumen fermentation between the diet treatment. This might be due to the similarity in the nutrient content of those grasses studied. The characteristic of rumen fermentation was in the range of optimal growth of rumen microbes. It is concluded that those of four grasses studied edible, acceptable and contain a good nutrient as a feed resource for goat. The nutrient content of the grasses studied creates a good rumen environment for optimum feed fermentation in the rumen of goat.
