A numerical H Darrieus hydrokinetic turbine performance assessment with the application of openings in blade geometry
Authors: Gomez Mateo Arrieta , Muñoz Angie Guevara , Zuluaga Diego Hincapie
Published: November 2024

This study explores the impact of various geometric modifications, including leading-edge openings, trailing- edge openings, and circular openings, on the performance of the H Darrieus hydrokinetic turbine. These modifications involved the removal of material from a symmetrical NACA0018 airfoil along its surface. The leading edge and trailing edge openings extended from the lower to the upper surface of the blade, while the circular opening was applied exclusively to the upper surface. Using the commercial software ANSYS® V22.2, the turbine was designed, discretized, and analyzed through computational fluid dynamics employing the Realizable K-e turbulence model. The primary output variable measured was torque, from which the power coefficient for each design modification was derived, allowing for the calculation of efficiency in each scenario. Notably, the configuration featuring the upper circular opening achieved the highest efficiency at 51.88% at a Tip Speed Ratio (TSR) of 2.0, a significant improvement over the standard case which had an efficiency of 45.16%. In contrast, the leading-edge and trailing-edge openings resulted in reduced efficiencies of 44.54% and 31.19%, respectively. The enhanced power coefficient of the H Darrieus hydrokinetic turbine with circular openings is attributed to the increased pressure difference generated between the upper and lower surfaces of the blade, surpassing the performance of the standard design.
Türkiye's Egg Export to Iraq: Performance Comparison of Seasonal ARIMA and Artificial Neural Network Models
Authors: Khalil Diyar Muadh , Akbay Cuma
Published: November 2024

This study aims to identify the most effective model for predicting the monthly export volumes of eggs from Türkiye to Iraq by comparing two primary forecasting methods: the Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) model and the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. Both models were applied to monthly export data of egg products from 2010 to 2020, sourced from reliable databases such as the UN Comtrade and Turkish Statistical Institute (TURKSTAT). The performance of both models was assessed using key statistical metrics, including the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and the coefficient of determination (R²). According to the results, the Feed-Forward Neural Networks (FFNN) model demonstrated superior predictive accuracy compared to the SARIMA model. This conclusion is supported by the FFNN model’s lower MAE, RMSE, and AIC values, indicating fewer forecasting errors and a better overall fit to the data. Therefore, the study concludes that the FFNN model is more effective and accurate than the SARIMA in predicting the export values of eggs from Türkiye to Iraq.

Published: November 2024

El propósito de este análisis es revisar las implicaciones del modelo de reconocimiento y medición de grupos de investigación e investigadores 2024 en tres de los ámbitos declarados como cambios claves en la transición a un nuevo modelo: los cambios en el módulo de apropiación social del conocimiento (ASC), la ponderación diferencial de artículos científicos en modalidad de acceso abierto y la ventana de observación diferenciada para mujeres. Con gran sorpresa hemos encontrado que el impacto de los productos de apropiación social del conocimiento (ASC) es menor en el modelo 2024 en comparación con el modelo inmediatamente anterior (2021). Esto se debe a dos ajustes simultáneos: un cambio en la ponderación y la reasignación de productos a una nueva categoría (DPC).

Authors: . Nuraina , . Muliana , . Rohantizani , Zulmaulida Rahmy , . Novianti
Published: November 2024

The problem faced in this study is the mistake that students often make in solving complex number algebra problems, which is caused by a lack of basic understanding of the mathematical operations involved. This study aims to analyze the types of errors that occur and the factors that affect these errors. The method used is descriptive qualitative analysis, with data collection through giving questions to students and interviews to explore the reasons behind the mistakes made. The results show that the main errors stem from inaccuracy in the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication of complex numbers, as well as mistakes in simplifying algebraic expressions. The interviews revealed that his lack of practice, confusion in understanding basic concepts, and limited time to work on questions also contributed to the error. In conclusion, to reduce these errors, students need to be given a deeper understanding of the basic concepts of complex number algebra and given more varied practice problems. Therefore, it is important to develop teaching methods that focus more on strengthening basic concepts and familiarizing students with more diverse questions.

Hidden Bodies and Revealing Sands: The Body of Drug Addicts in Sandplay Therapy
Authors: Merlino Marcella
Published: November 2024

The paper reflects on the disturbed, often violent relationship drug addict patients have with their body, when the body as object of pleasure demands the destruction of the same body through being exposed to the pain of syringes, the harmful consequences of overdose, contracted diseases, suffering invoked by withdrawal, loneliness, abandonment, life on the street, prostitution, poverty and imprisonment. The sandtray, as a metaphor of the body, can cause such dynamics to emerge. It can also help addicts to elaborate experiences of the body and in so doing seek alternative and less destructive paths that are more respectful of one's body and that may lead to new joys.

Xena: Healing the Abused Feminine
Authors: Rivière Yvon
Published: November 2024

This article presents the psychic healing of a counter-dependent patient who had been abused in her childhood. Her femininity had been severely wounded and replaced by a powerful animus. In 7 years of analysis, the defences of the Self could be unmasked and trust in life rebuilt. Ten sand pictures are landmarks of this process. They show how sandplay can help rebuild a safe vessel that was broken at a preverbal stage. In spite of long periods of time separating some sandplays, the connections between images remain remarkably strong and allow us to see the cohesiveness of one long journey from the first to the last image.
Sandplay: A Method for Data Analysis
Authors: Ramos Denise Gimenez , Melo da Matta Reinalda
Published: November 2024

The evaluation of psychotherapeutic processes is usually faced with the difficult task of transforming subjective behavior and psychological improvement into numbers or into data that can be appreciated by other professionals and that allows the application of statistical techniques. The method here presented is an attempt to fill this gap. The method gathers classifications done by other therapists in a form of analysis that can be used with different pathologies and facilitates the development of a bank of scientific data which the authors hope will be a basis for the integration of psychology with other fields of study such as neurology and psychiatry.

The Case of Clare: The Emergence of the Self in a Six-Year-Old Girl
Authors: Herrmann Steven B.
Published: November 2024

The paper describes the treatment of a 6-year-old biracial Spanish and English-speaking girl named "Clare." When Clare is referred for treatment she is seen for symptoms of an agitated depression and rage episodes at school. Her anger sometimes spills over into physical violence. The integration of her turbulent emotions is accompanied by her return to an early developmental period, when she was more at peace. Her regression leads her to uncover some painful-traumatic memories surrounding her parents' separation and fears of abandonment. During her treatment, she recalls a dream of metamorphosis into a beautiful butterfly that flies to Jupiter. This dream gives coherence to many of her trays. The article shows through sandplay and art how Clare underwent a momentary death to her childhood self—a "shadowy girl who died"—with all of her painful complexes, followed by a metamorphosis into a new structure of identity. The author asserts that Clare's symbolizations support Jung's hypothesis of two apparently distinct developmental stages (one instinctual, the other spiritual), and adds that that the self in this little girl is duplex: the supraordinate personality is a composite of maiden and mother. The self-figure is a portrayed in her last drawing. The paper illuminates what Murray Stein calls a "transformative image" in a little girl; the emerging self-image mirrors a hidden radiance of the divinity.
Using Self-generated Drawings to Facilitate Reading Comprehension in an Undergraduate EFL Class
Authors:   Universidad de Guayaquil, Morales-Jaramillo Antonieta , Intriago-Palacios Éder ,   Kansas State University, Fabre-Merchán Paolo ,   Universidad Estatal de Milagro, Recalde-Garcia Frans
Published: November 2024

This study sought to explore the power of self-generated drawing to improve reading comprehension of English language learners in a university setting. Fourteen undergraduate students, divided into control and experimental groups, read a chapter from a graded reader. The experimental group was instructed to construct self-generated drawings as they read to help them with comprehension while the control group only read. The students in both groups were given a pretest to determine their familiarity with the story, a posttest to measure reading comprehension, and were asked to write a short summary of the story to determine their reading comprehension. To learn about future use of the strategy, the students in both groups were asked to complete a self-perception survey. The study revealed mixed results: while the learners that drew while reading showed better reading comprehension when writing a summary, when assessed on a reading comprehension test, those who only read did slightly better. These results cannot be compared to studies involving language learners because of the absence of such studies, but experiments carried out in other disciplines with content area learners showed that learners benefit from drawing as they study. The use of self-generated drawings to support reading comprehension or other aspects of language learning shows promise at the theoretical and practical level. Considering the results reported in this study, more research needs to be done to show the benefits of self-generated drawings for English language learners.

Published: November 2024

Lower Back Pain (LBP) is a frequently reported issue among people in different domains, including students enrolled in nursing education programmes. Nursing students frequently endure prolonged periods of sitting during their participation in lecture activities. An unergonomic sitting posture and extended periods of sitting can increase the likelihood of experiencing lower back pain (LBP) complaints. This study investigated the correlation between sitting posture and duration and the occurrence of low back pain (LBP) complaints in nursing students at the College of Health Sciences of Pasapua Ambon. This research methodology was characterised by its analytical nature and relies on primary data collected using a cross-sectional approach. A total of 76 participants were included in the study, and they were provided with a Google form including a questionnaire to complete. The acquired data was subsequently examined using both univariate and bivariate methods. The findings indicated no statistically significant correlation between the sitting posture and complaints of lower back pain (LBP). A notable correlation existed between the amount of time spent sitting and lower back pain (LBP) symptoms. These findings suggest that focusing on the amount of time spent sitting rather than the specific sitting posture to reduce lower back pain complaints among university students is more crucial. This highlights the necessity of restricting extended periods of sitting while also emphasising the importance of taking sufficient breaks and engaging in frequent stretching.

Çevresel koşullar, su sıcaklığı ve pH gibi faktörler, sperm ve yumurta kalitesini etkiler. Stres faktörleri ve yaş, sperm ve yumurta kalitesini olumsuz yönde etkileyebilir. Alabalıklarda sperm ve yumurta kalitesini artırmak için genetik seleksiyon, uygun beslenme, çevresel optimizasyon ve hormonal düzenlemeler gibi stratejiler önerilmektedir. Sonraki yapılacak araştırmalarda, sperm ve yumurta kalitesini etkileyen daha fazla faktörün incelenmesi ve iyileştirme yöntemlerinin test edilmesi gerekmektedir.

En la década de los 60´s la enfermedad conocida como Marchitez por Fusarium Raza 1 (Foc R1) y Raza 2 (Foc R2) amenazó plantaciones de Musa spp. Actualmente el riesgo de introducción de Foc R4T, afectaría su producción y exportación. Ante la eventual introducción de Foc R4T, se propone un manejo integrado para mejorar la salud del suelo. En este estudio se obtuvieron 240 aislados nativos identificados como Trichoderma spp de cinco áreas de producción de musáceas en México. Las evaluaciones in vitro presentaron un antagonismo de 69-70% del porcentaje de inhibición del crecimiento contra Foc R1, mientras que para la Raza 2 del 61-63%, contra aislados nativos.

La Marchitez por Fusarium es considerada la enfermedad más devastadora en la historia del Banano, ocasionada por el hongo Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc). La eventual llegada de Foc Raza 4 Tropical (Foc R4T) a Latinoamérica, ha generado gran preocupación y activado la alerta en el gremio bananero, lo que ha conllevado a la búsqueda de estrategias para contener y manejar la enfermedad. A nivel mundial no existen productos de síntesis química que la controlen y las investigaciones están orientadas al mejoramiento genético y a la bioprospección de microrganismos antagonistas. En ese contexto, el objetivo del presente trabajo fue evaluar el efecto de hipovirulencia del hipovirus asociado a Cryphonectria parasítica (CHV-1) sobre Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense raza 1 (Foc R1), mediante la fusión de protoplastos. Las cepas de Foc R1 transformadas con el hipovirus evidenciaron diferentes niveles de acumulación, disminución en el crecimiento, cambios morfológicos y de pigmentación. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran el efecto de hipovirulencia sobre cepas de Foc R1 e indican que la fusión mediante protoplastos puede ser utilizada para la transferencia viral. Estudios posteriores en condiciones de invernadero, permitirán esclarecer si las cepas transformadas presentan disminución en la virulencia del hongo y consecuentemente reducción de la severidad de la enfermedad en plantas de banano.

En un diseño de bloques al azar con 5 repeticiones, se evaluó el efecto de la aplicación de Counter® 15GR-tebufos, Mocap® 15GR-ethoprofos y un testigo sin aplicación en el control de Radopholus similis y la recuperación del sistema radical en dos plantaciones comerciales de banano (Musa AAA) en Chiapas, México. A los 60 días de su aplicación, ambos productos redujeron (P< 0,0001) el número de R. similis en ambos experimentos, difiriendo del testigo. El Counter® lo redujo (P< 0,0001) en 86 y 75% y el Mocap® en 93 y 96% en el Exp I y II, respectivamente, mientras en el testigo, en el Exp I, aumentó (P= 0,0051) la población en un 101% y en Exp II, hubo una reducción no significativa del 17%. En ambos experimentos, la aplicación de los productos aumentó el porcentaje de raíces sanas.

La bananicultura brasileña se destaca entre las cinco más grandes del mundo, con una producción aproximada de 6,8 millones de toneladas en 457,410 mil hectáreas cultivadas (IBGE, 2023). Cabe señalar que las estadísticas brasileñas no distinguen entre la producción de plátano y banano. Actualmente, el cultivo brasileño se basa principalmente en cultivares del subgrupo Prata, con énfasis en BRS Prata-Anã (AAB), clon Prata Gorutuba y Prata Catarina. Sin embargo, cultivares como 'Grande Naine', 'Nanica' y 'Nanicão', pertenecientes al subgrupo Cavendish, principal fruto de exportación de la producción mundial, también cobran relevancia en los cultivos del Sudeste y Sur de Brasil. La cultura del banano está extendida por todo el territorio brasileño, con énfasis en las regiones Nordeste y Sudeste, responsables respectivamente por 35,1% y 33,5% del volumen total de producción en 2022 (IBGE, 2023). Sin embargo, el cultivo enfrenta desafíos fitosanitarios constantes y ampliamente distribuidos geográficamente, destacando problemas relacionados con hongos y nematodos.
