Храмовые росписи за время своего бытования сталкиваются с множеством губительных факторов — от переменчивых климатических условий до непредсказуемых исторических событий. Многие проблемы зарождаются еще на этапе создания такой живописи. Все это не только вызывает неизбежные повреждения, но и способствует их значительной неоднородности, несмотря на нахождение росписи в едином интерьерном пространстве. Из‑ за этого различные участки живописной поверхности требуют индивидуального подхода при составлении реставрационной методики и в процессе консервации.

Temple paintings during their existence are associated with many destructive factors – from changeable weather conditions to unpredictable historical events. Many problems arise already at the stage of creating temple paintings. All this not only causes inevitable damage, but also actively contributes to their significant heterogeneity, despite the location of temple paintings in a single interior space. Therefore, different areas of the painting surface require an individual approach when drawing up a restoration methodology and during the conservation process.

Body Transformations and their Phenomenological Hermeneutics: A Study of the Concealed Body Phenomenon in Pre-Islamic Arabic Poetry
Authors: Al-Ardawi Rania
Published: September 2024

This paper discusses the intertwined relationship between the two concepts of phenomenology as an interpretive philosophy for revealing phenomena that leads to the formation of a vision of the world; and phenomenological interpretation as concept as a method of intensive textual reading that deals with phenomena as part of both subject and object embedded in phenomenology. The researcher delves into the concept of phenomenological hermeneutics as a method to uncover the textual meanings in pre-Islamic Arabic poetry. The phenomenon of the body is selected as a sample studied to probe this existing entanglement. Merleau-Ponty's approach and its techniques is applied to tackle this phenomenon of concealed body. The paper attempts to define phenomenological hermeneutics; and examine how Merleau-Ponty's ideas present the body in phenomenological hermeneutics. The hermeneutics transformations which revealed the phenomenon of concealed body, and the techniques of its presence in pre-Islamic Arabic poetry are explored. The concealed body is investigated whether it is considered traveling through a successive poetic technique. The paper also seeks to present a view that covers the characteristics of the concealed body using the techniques of hermeneutics to explore its mysterious identity by presenting various Arabic poetry examples; in an attempt to present a critical phenomenological hermeneutic study that sheds light on the technique of intentional concealment in poetry.

Authors:   AIMS IBS, Bangalore, Hajira Bi Bi , Shahapurkar Renuka Sunil ,   AIMS IBS, Bangalore
Published: September 2024

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the wealth management industry. This paper compares traditional wealth management with AI-based solutions to assess their value to customers, focusing on factors like cost, customization, accessibility, performance, and accuracy. Traditional wealth management offers personalized human interaction, expert advice, and tailored financial planning but often comes with higher costs and limited scalability. In contrast, AI-based wealth management uses advanced algorithms and data analytics for scalable, efficient, and cost-effective services, though it may lack the personal touch of human advisors. The study finds that traditional wealth management excels in comprehensive planning and trust-based relationships, crucial for clients with complex needs. AI-driven solutions enhance accessibility and affordability, providing sophisticated insights to a wider audience. However, concerns about personalization quality and data reliance remain. The research suggests that a hybrid model combining traditional and AI-based approaches may offer the best solution, leveraging AI’s efficiency while maintaining personalized service and expert advice. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights for financial planners, identifying strategies to enhance value in the evolving wealth management field. Keywords: Wealth Management, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Financial Planning, AI-based Solutions, Personalized Financial Advice, Hybrid Wealth Management.
A Shot in the Heart – An Analysis of Mis-Governance of Zimbabwe Cricket

Published: September 2024

On March 25, 1992, Zimbabwe was dismissed for 134, and England, in prophetic form, seemed poised to extend their dominance. However, just a few hours later, Zimbabwe orchestrated one of the most remarkable comebacks in modern cricket history, punching well above their weight. Over the next decade, Zimbabwe consistently punched above their weight, showcasing immense promise despite facing significant setbacks. Their journey, marked by moments of brilliance, seemed to affirm their rightful place in the cricketing world. Highlights included a notable home victory against England in the 1996-97 season, a historic 1-0 series triumph in Pakistan, and a remarkable run in the 1999 World Cup, among other achievements. Zimbabwe emerged as a beacon of promise, not only as a cricketing nation but as a country overall. Despite the impact of colonial rule from 1880 to 1965, which left the majority of the population marginalized while a small white minority held the reins of wealth and power, Zimbabwe garnered respect on the global stage. It earned the esteemed title of the "Breadbasket of Africa," reflecting its rich agricultural potential and significant contributions to the continent. However, the land reforms implemented by Robert Mugabe between 1998 and 2001 sparked widespread unrest and deepened racial divisions within the country. The black community, seeking to address the injustices of colonial rule, saw violent seizures of white-owned farms, with some farmers being robbed or even killed. This turmoil extended to the cricketing arena, unsettling a team that had been performing impressively up until that point. The era between 1995-2000, could be said as the golden years of Zimbabwe cricket; they achieved some major milestones and were able to build a team that could take on any team. However the radical changes of late 1990s and early 2000’s impacted the Zimbabwe cricket as well. The Zimbabwe Cricket Union ( ZCU) was mired by corruption, inefficiency and more so lack of planning to take game forward. This saw cricket falling far behind in terms of performance as the period of darkness engulfed the team. The team returned to Test cricket after a jitus of six years in 2011 but it was far from being competitive neither the board did improved, amid shouts of incompetency the board was suspended in 2019 for Government’s interference in the game. Sadly the team has continued to fall below its junior team like Bangladesh, Afghanistan.
Identity, Participation, and Democracy in East Asia
Authors: Hong Ji Yeon
Published: September 2024

This essay reviews three outstanding books that reconceptualize the interplay of national and political identity with democracy and peace in East Asia. Aram Hur's Narratives of Civic Duty and Eunbin Chung's Pride, Not Prejudice challenge the notion that a strong national
identity undermines democratic participation and international cooperation, using East Asian states' complex history as a backdrop. Using survey experiments, Hur examines how nationalism can facilitate civic engagement, while Chung shows it fosters international trust. Yoonkyung Lee's Between
the Streets and the Assembly expands the dialogue by showing the diverse motivations for civic participation in South Korean democracy. Collectively, these works prompt a reevaluation of the role of national identity in shaping political behaviour and civic participation, and call for
further scholarly inquiry and investigation into its role within East Asian states.

Published: September 2024

Historical and cultural heritage areas gradually disappear due to rapid urbanization, urban renewal, and transformation. With China's urban development shifting from incremental planning to stock optimization, protecting historical and cultural landscape areas has gained considerable attention. The development and preservation of these areas have become pivotal research issues. A multi-value-oriented evaluation index system has been established to recognize the haphazard and scientifically unfounded updating and reforming of buildings within historical and cultural landscape areas. This system draws upon and organizes evaluation indices for historical buildings from domestic and international contexts. An empirical test assessed the protection efforts in the Dingzi Street Historical and Cultural Landscape Area in Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province. The results emphasize that the protection of buildings in historical landscape areas should consider the potential for development and construction, the enhancement of residents' living environments, and the economic impact on neighboring areas.

Andean crops such as quinoa, cañihua and tarwi have high nutritional value; however, their consumption has lower demand compared to traditional cereals such as wheat, rice, barley and soybean. Therefore, the aim is to evaluate the effect of its incorporation in the diet on biochemical indicators in Wistar rats. The research had a quantitative approach, descriptive type, using an experimental design and establishing 24 rats as sample size. There was a control treatment composed of wheat only, and three that contained 50% of wheat flour and the remaining quinoa, cañihua and tarwi flour. With the Andean crops, HDL levels were increased, while LDL levels tended to decrease concerning the wheat treatment; likewise, with the Andean cereals, the glucose level was maintained at optimal standards, and there was also an increase in hemoglobin and hematocrit. It concludes that the intake of products made from Andean crops has a positive effect on the body, increasing HDL levels, hemoglobin and hematocrit levels and decreasing or attenuating glucose concentrations in the blood, which is essential for proper health.

Published: September 2024

This study highlights the role of emotional intelligence, gender, income, and residence area on the relationship between brand image, service recovery strategy, and satisfaction. The multistage with purposive sampling method has recruited 600 samples of private hospital services in Thailand. Self-administered online questionnaires via Google Forms were used to collect the data online. Confirmatory factor analysis and multigroup SEM have been used for hypothesis testing. The research explores emotional intelligence (EI), with lower emotional intelligence associated with more negative perceptions of social brand image. Lower income affects the symbolic and social image, influencing satisfaction with a service recovery strategy. The upcountry areas viewed experiential images more positively compared to those from urban regions. Gender did not significantly moderate these relationships. The study also highlights thatfactors do not substantially impact service recovery satisfaction but are still vital for effective communication and brand attachment. The results underscore the intricate dynamics of the various factors that shape consumer attitudes and behaviours toward service recovery strategy.

Authors: Garcia João , Semedo Arian
Published: September 2024

This work presents the design and implementation of an innovative system that utilizes photocells for road vehicle counting and computational simulations to estimate traffic-related particulate (PM10) emissions. The integration of photocell technology has resulted in a robust system with reduced counting errors, ensuring high accuracy in correlating traffic counts with emission values. The system was evaluated under various environmental conditions, demonstrating its effectiveness in providing reliable real-time data on the impact of road traffic on particle emissions. The methodology included the use of the ADMS-Urban model for emission estimation and simulations with Ansys Fluent, enabling the acquisition of dependable real-time data. The results indicate a strong agreement between measured and calculated PM10 concentrations, with the system maintaining precision comparable to direct observations. The observed values of 5.0 µg/m3 and 19.2% for absolute and relative errors, respectively, demonstrate the system's remarkable performance, supported by a robust correlation represented by R2 = 0.88. This strong correlation underscores the reliability of the employed model, suggesting its capability to capture and explain a substantial portion of the variability in PM10 concentrations. Validation campaigns conducted on a street in Portugal confirmed the system's ability to accurately count vehicles and estimate particle emissions. The analysis revealed a significant agreement between measured and calculated average PM10 concentrations, with standard deviation values of 7.0 µg/m3 for measured concentrations and 7.5 µg/m3 for calculated concentrations, suggesting consistency between the datasets. These conclusions confirm that the system is a valuable tool for researchers and policymakers, providing crucial insights for the management and improvement of urban air quality, contributing to the development of urban planning policies and environmental sustainability.
