Authors: Yang Zhaolun , Wang Xinbo , Chen Zeyu , Wang Rui , Cui Wanzhao
Published: December 2023

Multipactor and low-pressure gas discharges have a negative impact on the performance and security of microwave components in space. In this manuscript, a 2-dimensional parallel flat plate structural model was designed to simulate the breakdown of multipactor to low-pressure gas discharges. The breakdown levels in the pressure range of 0.1 to 100 torr were verified under the conditions of the Ag material, 4-mm gap, 2.6-GHz frequency, and air as the background gas. Random secondary electron emission and gas molecule collision processes are incorporated, and the effect of their transition section is studied using trajectory tracking and Monte Carlo methods. A comparison of the model to the available experimental data demonstrates the model’s accuracy. On this basis, the variation of gas adsorption in relation to the surface secondary electron yields was considered, and the effect of the gas adsorption issues on breakdown level was calculated by means of numerical simulations based on some assumptions. The calculation reveals that in a finite volume of space, smaller desorption volumes cause negligible pressure changes, but the secondary electron emission capacity of the material decreases, which, in turn, leads to a flat or rising breakdown level. On the contrary, the larger the desorption volume, the more the gas is collisionally ionized and the breakdown level decreases.

Carl Gustav Jung, bireyin yaşadığı topluma ait her şeyi hafızasına kaydettiğini söyler ve buna kolektif bilinçdışı adını verir. Kolektif bilinçdışına ait öğeler tüm insanlığın geçmiş deneyimlerinin ürünüdür ve nesilden nesile miras yoluyla aktarılmıştır. Jung’un takipçilerinden olan Joseph Campbell da kolektif bilinçdışı kavramı içerisinde yer alan kahraman arketipinden hareketle farklı milletlere ait mitsel ve efsanevi metinleri incelemiş; bunun neticesinde bahsi geçen metinlerin tamamında kahramanın benzer bir serüveni yaşadığı sonucuna varmıştır. Kahramanın yolculuğu şeklinde ifade edilen bu serüven, ana karakterin hem mecazen hem de reel olarak katettiği yolun döngüselliğini ifade etmektedir. Nitekim tekrar eden belli aşamaların ardından kahraman, başladığı yere dönmekte; olay örgüsü farklı gibi görünen hikâyelerde dahi kahramanın temel macerası benzer aşamalar içermektedir. Campbell’ın monomit olarak adlandırdığı, kahramanın döngüsel yolculuğunda katettiği aşamaların bahsi geçen anlatı türlerinde olduğu gibi mesnevi türünde de ortak olduğu görülmektedir. Bu bağlamda 16. yüzyıl aşk mesnevilerinden Lamiî Çelebi’nin Vamık u Azra Mesnevisi, monomitin çekirdek birimi olarak adlandırılan ayrılma, erginlenme ve dönüş aşamaları esas alınarak incelenmiştir.

This paper analyses the level of knowledge and engagement of the students of the Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and Management (GADE) of the Faculty of Economics and Business (Gipuzkoa Section) of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) on the SDGs using Multiple Correspondence Analysis and Cluster Analysis. This analysis makes it possible to identify different patterns or profiles of student behavior in relation to sustainability. The results show the coexistence of four different patterns of behavior in relation to knowledge, perception, and commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and sustainability among students. We identify a first group comprising 23.4% of students with low knowledge and high commitment to the SDGs; a second group that includes 30.4% of students with high knowledge of and commitment to the SDGs; a third group comprising 30% of students with low knowledge of and commitment to the SDGs; and finally, a fourth group comprising 16.2% of students with high knowledge of and low commitment to the SDGs. This scenario suggests the necessity to make further progress in the incorporation of the sustainable development dimension in the teaching-learning processes.

The article discusses the the complex character of Chinese advertising slogans in the light of linguocognitive approach. It is considered of vital importance to conduct (1) semiotic analysis to find out the amount of monosemiotic and polysemiotic slogans, with denotative or/and connotative meanings; (2) pragmatic analysis to identify illocutionary acts, according to which the slogans can be classified as promising, having emotional and evaluative influences, informing and stimulating; (3) the analysis of cultural and national specifics, that reveal the expression of Confucian values in advertising slogans, selfidentity, references to history, national symbols. According to the carried research, the analysed slogans are defined as mostly polysemiotic, the information in which is expressed connotatively, through images, comparisons, metaphors and reference to the cultural specifics of the nation. The Chinese advertisements on Covid 19 Vaccination use a variety of different types of illocutionary acts to persuade recipients: the largest share occupy slogans promising the recipients life, health, a better future, etc. In addition, Chinese advertising slogans are characteristic of strong appeal to cultural, historical and national identity and properties.

Authors: Hornackova Klapicova Edita , Ciprianova Elena
Published: December 2023

Like the rest of Central Europe, Slovakia has been a multicultural and multilingual society for centuries. Although Slovak is recognized as the official language, there are many other languages spoken in the country. Due to historical reasons, the largest minority communities are Hungarian, Roma, Czech and Rusyn, but the number of bilingual and multilingual speakers varies according to the region, with the highest concentration in Western and Eastern Slovakia. In contemporary Slovakia, bilingualism and multilingualism also results from international migration, globalization or mixed marriages. In this environment children are often exposed to more than one language and experiencing or acquiring another language(s) becomes natural part of their socialization.
This paper provides an overview of the linguistic situation and sociolinguistic context of bilingualism and multilingualism as a common phenomenon in the territory of Slovakia and presents the most recent studies in bilingual and multilingual competence in children. Our research focuses mainly on the questions of language differentiation, code-switching, code-mixing, and natural interpreting skills. A few examples of short dialogues are provided to illustrate the features of bilingual communication. The findings are based on the error analysis of spontaneous and elicited production of language and the outcomes of experimental tests carried out in form of a number of individual case studies of children in Slovakia.
TOWARDS A SYSTEMIC APPROACH. A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR CIRCULAR DESIGN IN THE TRANSITION OF A SUSTAINABLE ECONOMY
Authors: Valusyte Ruta
Published: December 2023

Circular design is gaining increasing recognition as an integral approach to address the environmental challenges posed by the linear "take-make-dispose" model. However, the effective implementation of circular design requires a comprehensive understanding of its complex dynamics and interactions within a broader systems context. This paper proposes a conceptual framework for circular design underpinned by systemic design principles. This framework aims to guide designers and stakeholders in creating holistic and regenerative solutions by integrating principles from systems thinking, design thinking, and sustainability. The framework emphasizes the importance of considering the entire lifecycle of a product or service, from material sourcing to reuse, repairing, re-manufacturing and recycling, while also accounting for the socioeconomic and environmental dimensions. It encourages the adoption of strategies such as changing value chains, shared ownership, product attachment and trust and material recovery to maximize resource sufficiency and minimize waste generation.
Furthermore, the framework highlights the significance of collaboration among diverse stakeholders, including designers, manufacturers, consumers, and policymakers, to foster systemic change. It provides a structured approach to identify leverage points, assess trade-offs, and inform decision-making processes throughout the design journey. The application of this framework has the potential to accelerate the transition towards a circular economy by facilitating the creation of innovative and sustainable solutions. Future research should focus on empirically testing and refining this framework to enhance its practicality and effectiveness in real-world contexts.
QUO VADIS PERKAWINAN BEDA AGAMA DI INDONESIA
Authors: Wiwin Wiwin
Published: December 2023

Artikel ini mengkaji fenomena perkawinan beda agama di Indonesia pada aspek yuridis formal, konsep HAM, dan hukum Islam. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis arah politik hukum pengaturan perkawinan beda agama dalam sistem hukum Indonesia. Jenis penelitian ini yakni library research (penelitian kepustakaan) yang berbentuk penelitian hukum normatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan (statue approach), pendekatan kompratif (comparative approach), dan pendekatan konspetual (conseptual approach). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa: (1) Sistem hukum Indonesia belum mengatur secara expressis verbis klausal perkawinan beda agama secara komprehensif sehingga menibulkan ketidakpastian hukum dan hermeneutika hukum yang tumpang tindih; (2) Konsep perlindungan dan penegakan HAM di Indonesia bersifat partikularisme sehingga pembatasan hak perkawinan beda agama harus diintegrasikan dengan norma agama dan norma hukum; dan (3) Perkawinan beda agama menurut hukum Islam hukumnya haram, terkecuali pernikahan antara pria muslim dengan wanita Ahli Kitab. Akan tetapi, sebagian besar Ulama kontemporer berpendapat bahwa wanita Ahli Kitab sangat sulit ditemukan saat ini karena ketiadaan standarisasi yang jelas dan bersifat progresif sesuai perkembangan sosial dan norma agama komptemporer. Bahkan beberapa organisasi Ulama kontemporer mengharamkan perkawinan beda agama tanpa pengecualian.

प्रकृति द्वारा दिये गये अनेक वरदानों में जल प्रमुख है। मानव जीवन के लिए ‘‘जल‘‘ प्रकृति की अमूल्य निधि है, परन्तु यह सीमित प्राकृतिक संसाधन है। कहने का तात्पर्य यह है, कि जल सृष्टि का मूलाधार है। जल केवल मानव जाति के लिए ही नहीं बल्कि जीव-जन्तुओं और पेड-पौधो के लिए भी आवश्यक है। पृथ्वी पर जल के बिना जीवन जीने की कल्पना नहीं की जा सकती, समस्त जीव-जगत का आधार ही जल है, अर्थात ‘‘जल ही जीवन है‘‘ जल के महत्व का अंदाजा इसी बात से लगाया जा सकता है कि प्रत्येक वर्ष 22 मार्च को ‘‘विश्व जल दिवस‘‘ के रूप में मनाया जाता है। संयुक्त राष्ट्र संघ (न्छव्) भी वर्ष 2013 को ‘‘विश्व जल वर्ष‘‘ के रूप में मना चुका है।
पृथ्वी के तीन चौथाई भाग पर जल का विस्तार है, जिसका 97.31 प्रतिशत भाग खारा (लवणीय ) है जो महासागरों, समुद्री खाडियों व नमकीन झीलों में पाया जाता है, और कुल जल भण्ड़ार का 2.69 प्रतिशत ही ताजा जल (स्वच्छ) है जिसमें से दो तिहाई भाग उच्च पर्वतीय क्षेत्रों पर स्थित हिमनदों, हिम टोपियों व धुवीय क्षेत्रों में हिम चादरों के रूप में जमा हुआ है। सम्पूर्ण पृथ्वी पर 0.68 प्रतिशत भूजल व 0.0005 प्रतिशत सतही जल पाया जाता है। पृथ्वी पर उपयोग के लिए सहज रूप से उपलब्ध स्वच्छ जल की मांग 1 प्रतिशत से भी क्रम है। एक अनुमान के अनुसार भारत में औसत रूप से 1950 करोड घन मीटर जल उपयोग के लिए उपलब्ध है। भारत में विश्व की 17 प्रतिशत आबादी का (जनगणना 2011) का निवास है, यद्यपि यहां केवल 4 प्रतिशत ही जल है।
यदि हम राजस्थान की बात करे तो, राजस्थान भौगोलिक दृष्टि से देश का सबसे बड़ा प्रदेश है। यह देश के कुल क्षेत्रफल का 10.4 प्रतिशत भू-भाग है, तथा लगभग 5.67 प्रतिशत जनसंख्या निवास करती है। कृषि क्षेत्र की दृष्टि से यहां कृषि योग्य क्षेत्र 257 लाख हैक्टेयर है, जो देश का 13.88 प्रतिशत तथा कुल पशुधन का 11 प्रतिशत है। इसके बावजूद सतही जल संसाधन का केवल 1.16 प्रतिशत और 1.70 प्रतिशत भूजल है। राजस्थान देश का सबसे अधिक जल गुणवत्ता प्रभावित प्रदेश है, क्योकि राज्य के 51 प्रतिशत जल में फ्लोराइड व 42 प्रतिशत जल खारा है। जहां तक जल की उपलब्धता का सवाल है, यह राष्ट्रीय औसत के 50 प्रतिशत से भी कम है।

Incest - A Legal Paradox: Point of View in Personal Laws and the Growing Criminal Concerns
Authors: - SIVA SANGARI , - KAMBAN SOCRETES
Published: December 2023

Incest means sexual intercourse between a male and a female who are closely linked by blood or affinity provided that such people are prohibited by law to marry or to conduct a sexual activity. Though the majority in the society treat this as an immoral act, the law does not have the strong stand over incest. Nevertheless, an act becomes a crime when it is expressly declared to be a crime under the legislation, not just because of an act which is immoral. Even though Section 376(2)(f ) talks about incest in a implied way by having this wordings “being a relative, guardian or teacher of, or a position of trust or authority towards woman ,commits rape on such woman”, that provision was found to be ineffective because of less number of cases being reported on that arena according to statistics. And punishing the accused under Rape is found to be inappropriate because of the key difference called “trust” because rape is committed by a person who is unknown and incest is committed by a person who holds a position of trust. Therefore, an amendment have to be brought in IPC or any criminal legislation which separately have a provision for incest. The basic object behind this paper is an attempt to critically examine the legality of the incestuous relationship in the personal laws and analyse the reporting of cases pertaining to incest according to statistics and suggesting the lawmakers to make an amendment which provides an effective provision for incest.
Critical Review on Microstructure, Mechanical & Wear Study of MMC and Al6082 / Granite particles for Light Weight Structural Applications
Authors: - Subramanyam Burlakanti , - Periyasamy Pitchaipillai

The majority of industrial applications use Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) because of their strength-to-weight ratio and temperature endurance. The specimens' tensile strength, impact strength, shear strength, hardness, and wear rate are crucial factors in the composite. Al6082/granite particles wear rate is affected by the applied stress, sliding distance, sliding velocity, and weight percentage of the reinforced composite. The granite dust-reinforced material may be employed in engineering applications requiring low strength and weight. Wear is faster for Al6082/granite dust than MMC. Compared to MMC, Al6082/granite dust is less robust. The MMC density reduced by reinforcing Fly ash (FA) and Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNPs). Increasing the wt.% of GNP will increase the hardness of the MMC sample. The impact strength and shear strength increase from MMC 1 to MMC 3.

Published: December 2023

The study assessed the human resource management practices on newly appointed teachers in secondary schools in Gwembe District. The objectives of the study examined teachers` biographics, the effects of human resource planning and human resource training and development on organizational effectiveness, assessed and determined the influence of employee recognition and the extent to which work place climate influenced teacher effectiveness in secondary schools. Descriptive research method was employed. The target population comprised 16 secondary schools and 212 teachers. A sample contained 14 schools and 112 teachers (8 per school). All the 7 senior schools with grades 8-12 were purposively selected and out of the 9 junior schools with grades 8-9, only 7 schools were simple randomly selected and used. A questionnaire and an interview guide were used. A pilot study was conducted in two schools to determine the reliability of instruments. An Alpha reliability coefficient of 0.890 was obtained which deemed the instrument reliable. The data collected was coded and analyzed using descriptive statistics, regression and content analysis. Findings from the study on demographics revealed that the teaching profession was dominated by males, majority teachers held Bachelor’s Degree, were married and have worked for about 10 years to 14 years. Other findings revealed that HR planning, training and development, employee recognition programs and work place climate had a positive and significant influence on organizational and teacher effectiveness. The study concluded that teachers were not given job descriptions; orientations were not done. The majority teachers were not confirmed within 3/6 months of their appointment. Schools lacked effective communication and management did not involve staff in decision making. Also, teachers refused of having a health scheme supported by the government. The study recommended that job descriptions should be given to newly appointed teachers at the initial stage. Adequate orientation should be conducted. Teachers should be confirmed within 3/6 months. Management should enhance effective communication and involve staff in decision making at all times. The government should support teachers practically with health scheme not just on paper.

Authors: Schneider Boye Salome , Leonhard Tobias
Published: December 2023

Aufgrund des Lehrpersonenmangels werden im Kanton Zürich seit Sommer 2022 auch Personen als Lehrerinnen und Lehrer rekrutiert, die über keine einschlägige Qualifikation verfügen. Im Beitrag werden zunächst die Ausgangslage und ein darauf bezogenes Forschungsprojekt vorgestellt. Dann wird aus diskurstheoretischer Perspektive analysiert, welche Positionierungen von zwei Personen ohne Lehrdiplom in Bezug auf die eigene Rolle und ein Studium an der Pädagogischen Hochschule aufgerufen werden. Die Differenz- und Defizitmarkierung als «Person ohne Lehrdiplom» wird von den untersuchten Fällen intensiv bearbeitet. Vorwissen, Persönlichkeit und Motivation werden gegenüber einem Studium als bedeutsamer eingeschätzt. Die Befunde werden mit Blick auf Konzepte pädagogischer Professionalität und in Bezug auf Praktiken der Identitätsbehauptung diskutiert.
