Authors: Gaur Anjula , Goyal Swati
Published: March 2022

The present investigation has been aimed to develop a cheap adsorption method for the removal of contaminants from wastewater using an eco-friendly bioadsorbent. Activated Pongammia pinnata pod powder (AP4) was used as an adsorbent which is extracted from ground shells of Pongammia pinnata pods (karanj tree). Systematic batch adsorption studies of Malachite Green (MG) on activated Pongammia pinnata pod powder (AP4) were carried using different parameters such as effect of initial adsorbate concentration, dose of adsorbent (AP4), pH, contact time and temperature. The adsorptive behaviour of MG onto AP4 was studied using Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. Thermodynamic analysis was also done to find out the nature of adsorption procedure. The estimated value of Gibb’s free energy ΔG° (-11.22×103) reveals spontaneous nature of the process which involves pseudo first order kinetics controlled by particle diffusion process and the positive value entropy (ΔS°) shows the randomness of the adsorption process.

Published: March 2022

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of formic and oxalic acids by 2-picolinium chlorochromate (PiCC) have been studied in dimethylsulphoxide. The main product of oxidation is carbon dioxide. The reaction is first order with respect to PiCC. Michaelis-Menten type of kinetics were observed with respect to the reductants. The reaction is acid-catalysed and the acid dependence has the form: kobs = a + b[H+]. The oxidation of -deuterio formic acid exhibits a substantial primary kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD = 5. 76 at 298 K). The reaction has been studied in nineteen different organic solvents and the solvent effect has been analysed using Taft's and Swain's multiparametric equations. The temperature dependence of the kinetic isotope effect indicates the presence of a symmetrical cyclic transition state in the rate-determining step. Suitable mechanisms have been proposed.

Authors: Mandavgane Susmita A.
Published: March 2022

In this study, benzoic acid and salicylic acid in their aqueous solutions were treated by ozonation, photo-ozonation, photoperoxone and photoperoxone processes. A batch photoreactor with 8W low pressure mercury vapour lamp was used to carry out the experiments for examining the effects of various combinations of ozone, H2O2 and UV and their rates of degradation were compared. The concentration of the substrate was determined with an UV-visible spectrophotometer. The photodegradation processes conformed to first-order kinetics. The degradation rate of the two substrates is as follows: photoperoxone (UV/O3/H2O2)> photoozonation(UV/O3)> peroxone(O3/H2O2)> ozonation(O3).

Authors: Hajare Pranit P. , Rachh Punit R.
Published: March 2022

The present study involves preparation and evaluation of Microballoons of Repaglinide which is having poor solubility in water and low oral bioavailability. Repaglinide, an oral hypoglycemic agent, is rapidly absorbed and eliminated from the body after oral administration. The peak plasma level occurs within an hour of oral administration with elimination half life of 1 hr. The objective of the present work is to prepare floating microballoons of Repaglinide for delivering the drug in controlled manner which will help to reduce dosing frequency and maintain the plasma concentration of drug for longer time without fluctuations. This will be helpful in having better control over clinical maintenance of the type 2 diabetic condition. The Microballoons were prepared by solvent evaporation emulsification technique using Sodium Alginate as coating agent and Calcium Chloride as cross-linking agent. The formation of spherical and hollow Microballoons was confirmed by SEM studies ranging from 220 to 310 μm. The percentage of drug entrapment was found to be 70-80%. The Micromeritic properties indicated better flowability of the spheres. The Buoyancy test showed good floatability for more than 12 hrs. Formulation B5, C5 and D3 showed higher buoyant percentage after 12 hours and percentage yield. Microballoons of Repaglinide were designed to increase the Solubility, Bioavliability and to improve the patient compliance. The microballoons with the smaller particle size enhanced the in vitro drug release of the Repaglinide. Thus, microballoons approach may be a promising carrier for Repaglinide and other BCS class II drugs.

Detecting Unsatisfiable Conjunctive Property Path Queries under Shape Expression Schema
Authors: Maedaa Yuuki , Suzuki Nobutaka
Published: March 2022

Shape Expression (ShEx) is a novel schema language proposed for RDF/graph data. For a ShEx schema S and a query q, q is said to be unsatisfiable if for any valid data D under S q reports an empty answer over D. In general, the size of RDF/graph data is very large, and thus it is inefficient to perform unsatisfiable queries on such data. Therefore, it is desirable that we can detect unsatisfiable queries efficiently before executing them. In this paper, we consider Conjunctive Property Path, a generalization of Property Path defined in SPARQL 1.1, as the query language. First, we propose an algorithm for determining satisfiability of Conjunctive Property Path queries under ShEx schema. Then we conducted a preliminary experiment, which results suggest that the proposed algorithm determines if a given Conjunctive Property Path query is satisfiable efficiently.

Authors: Wang Cong , Wang Liwei , Jin Shuangshuang
Published: March 2022

Due to its intensive computational demands for real-time operation and diagnosis, large-scale power system dynamic simulation requires high-performance computing technologies to accelerate its computation on advanced computing platforms. In this paper, leveraging high-level Python and its parallel scientific computing libraries, three parallel power system dynamic simulation applications are adaptively developed using native MPI for Python on CPU, PETSc for Python on CPU, and CuPy on GPU with dedicated data manipulation strategies and implementations, respectively. Their computational performance is compared using different sizes of testing systems and indicates that: 1) MPI and PETSc can make a decent performance for small and moderate-size systems on limited CPU resources, and 2) GPU has better potential in speeding up dynamic simulation for larger and more complex systems. The results demonstrate Python's suitability in parallelizing power system modeling and simulation with fast computational performance and easy development.

Published: March 2022

Sirnabaya and Purwawinangun villages are located in the Gunungjati area, Cirebon Regency, which is an area with a strong tradition. One of them is the Nadran tradition which is carried out as a form of community gratitude for the produce of the earth and the sea. However, the two villages are known for their brutal fighting conflicts. Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between traditional values ??and the level of conflict control. The research was conducted with quantitative supported by qualitative methods. The research instrument was a questionnaire to collect data from 40 respondents. In-depth interviews were conducted with 10 informants. Data analysis was performed using Spearman correlation. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between the Nadran tradition and the level of conflict control that occurred between Sirnabaya and Purwawinangun villages. Even though the community knows and applies the noble values ??of the Nadran tradition, the community tends to be involved in conflict. This happens because individuals lose their identity when in a crowd or are called deindividuation symptoms. This research is expected to be a consideration for the committee and the government in regulating the Nadran implementation system so that conflicts can be minimized.

Published: March 2022

O ProUni é uma política pública federal de isenções fiscais para Instituições de Ensino Superior privadas que concedem de bolsas de estudo para alunos de baixa renda. O programa já custou mais de R$ 13 bilhões, e formou cerca de 500 mil estudantes. De forma inédita, essa pesquisa rastreou milhares de egressos na RAIS (identificada), observando que um graduado pelo ProUni recebe, na média, 30% a mais do que um equivalente não graduado. Convertendo esse impacto em massa salarial, a fim de contrastá-la com o gasto tributário em um fluxo de caixa, conclui-se que, em um cenário conservador, o Valor Presente Líquido da política já seria de mais de R$ 38 bilhões. Com base em análises desagregadas por cursos, recomenda-se a focalização das bolsas em graduações que potencializam o benefício coletivo.

Published: March 2022

Knowledge –based organizations such as universities need to be adaptive to change and need to assist endorsement of innovative suggestion. The purpose of this paper was to find the conception of the learning organization which was first proposed by Peter Senge in 1990. The present study was an attempt to know the faculty attitude about the universities acting as such institution or not. A survey was conducted by using a sample of (N=59) faculty members of National University of Modern Languages Islamabad. In a survey questionnaire by Watkins and Marsik namely DLOQ (2003) was used. Data was analyzed using SPSS-20. The results showed variations across faculty perceptions of learning organization. Male faculty scored lower than females on the dimensions of “Empowerment” and “Strategic Leadership”. These results reveal that the university holds the characteristics of centralized, ranked structure that might obstruct a growth on the way to a learning organization. The use of DLOQ offers valued understandings and insight when planning and gauging efforts for educational institution development. It draws attention to the different dimensions of a learning organization and the challenges that should be overcome if the institution is to bring merit among higher education institutions.

Políticas de morte versus redes pela vida: sociedade civil no enfrentamento à pandemia nas cidades
Authors: Rodrigues Hanna Cláudia Freitas , Cardoso Patrícia de Menezes
Published: March 2022

O presente artigo investiga as relações entre as políticas de morte promovidas pelo Estado e as políticas de cuidado com a vida, articuladas via iniciativas da sociedade civil para o enfrentamento à pandemia da COVID-19 nas cidades brasileiras. A abordagem teórica da ação dos sujeitos coletivos no contexto de crise é articulada à visão geral da “Biblioteca de iniciativas: Direito Urbanístico e COVID-19” do Instituto Brasileiro de Direito Urbanístico – IBDU e ao aprofundamento das experiências da Articulação do Centro Antigo de Salvador, no estado da Bahia, e do Fórum de Comunidades Tradicionais de Angra dos Reis, Paraty e Ubatuba no litoral fluminense e paulista. Iniciativas que articulam o centro e periferia de cidades das maiores regiões metropolitanas do Brasil. Os casos são analisados a partir da caracterização de seus territórios, dos atores envolvidos, instrumentos jurídicos acionados e interface com o direito urbanístico, indicando que a reivindicação do direito à cidade durante a pandemia amplia o espaço público para além do estatal a partir das práticas e lutas comunitárias.

Authors: Alfonsin Betânia de Moraes
Published: March 2022

Este artigo analisa a centralidade do fenômeno urbano e da história da urbanização brasileira na determinação da desigual distribuição geográfica dos casos e óbitos por COVID-19 no Brasil. Além disso, a partir de uma pesquisa desenvolvida a partir do método sistêmico, apresenta um apanhado das contribuições que o Direito Urbanístico é capaz de oferecer para o enfrentamento da pandemia, justamente a partir das cidades, inegável território de contágio do coronavírus no Brasil. A partir de um diagnóstico de décadas de violação do direito à cidade no país, o artigo examina instrumentos de Direito Urbanístico capazes de mitigar os impactos perversos da crise sanitária sobre as populações mais vulneráveis, especialmente das periferias, analisando alternativas de políticas urbanas e medidas passíveis de serem adotadas pelos Poderes Executivo, Legislativo e Judiciário durante a pandemia.

Nesta virada de século, as transformações que vêm ocorrendo universalmenteapontam para a valorização dos fundamentos de uma sociedade justa e solidária,como a dignidade da pessoa humana (fonte dos direitos humanos), a cidadania, ademocracia, a ética e a paz, como meio de impedir o crescimento dos fatores quetêm gerado a degradação da vida humana.Nas décadas de 1980 e 1990, houve um aumento dos países que optarampor regimes democráticos, adotando como modelo o Estado Democrático de Direito,destinado a proteger e implementar os direitos da pessoa humana. Por outro lado,nessas duas décadas houve um aumento da desigualdade social, do desemprego,da violência, da poluição ambiental e da deterioração das áreas de responsabilidadedo setor público, como saúde, educação, seguridade social, saneamento básico,transporte e moradia, em especial nos países em desenvolvimento (Artigo publicado originalmente na Revista Pólis, em 1998).

Many lives can be saved by defibrillation within the first minutes after sudden out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The main problem here is that the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) - even with the inclusion of other ‘first responders’ (police, fire brigade) - often do not arrive within the first critical 5–10 min after an OHCA. Further strengthening the survival network to ameliorate response time might impact outcome but is hampered by cost, lack of qualified workforce, and geography. Considering the yearly operational cost of a ground-based ambulance (including personnel, vehicle, materials, and overhead), the development of the survival network is expensive. Therefore, alternatives are required. In this context, using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) has been developed. However, the main problem here is that the traditional batteries powering the existing drones are not able to perfectly meet the flight time requirements in the drone ambulance missions because the energy density of the employed conventional batteries is extremely low. The hydrogen fuel cell (HFC) technology is showing to be a prominent source of power in the interest of increasing the flight time of UAVs, notably for its unrivaled efficiency and increasing popularity.
