Opinión pública sobre gasto público: una cuestión clave para las estrategias de comunicación política en períodos de crisis económica
Authors: Cicuéndez Santamaría Ruth
Published: February 2024

¿Cambian las preferencias políticas de la opinión pública durante las crisis? ¿En qué sentido? La literatura especializada sugiere que las recesiones influyen en la opinión pública, pero hay poca evidencia empírica de que las preferencias fiscales cambien de forma significativa y perdurable en estas coyunturas. En este artículo se analiza la evolución de las preferencias de gasto público de los españoles en ocho políticas públicas durante la Gran Recesión y durante la pandemia. Para ello, se utilizan datos de encuestas del CIS realizadas entre 2006 y 2023. La investigación también indaga en las narrativas de los gobiernos sobre las medidas adoptadas para hacer frente a las recesiones. Los resultados apuntan a que las crisis afectan a la opinión pública, y que una mayoría apoya el incremento del gasto para las políticas sociales, no así en otras áreas. Estos cambios serían temporales y, superada la situación, se vuelve a las tendencias habituales. Si bien las preferencias son relativamente homogéneas entre los distintos grupos sociales, se aprecian diferencias que se agudizan en épocas de contracción. Las distintas estrategias discursivas gubernamentales no parecen tener una influencia determinante en las preferencias de la opinión pública.

Published: February 2024

People who live with stomas suffer impacts in the adaptation process, especially in their reintegration into society. In addition to bodily changes, ostomies can also cause emotional, social, and spiritual imbalances. This is a literature review that aimed to analyze the repercussions identified in the literature related to the perception of ostomy patients on their self-esteem and self-image. Self-esteem involves the perception of body image and senses, the figurations, and mental representations that a person has of others and of himself. The need for an ostomy causes a series of changes in the patients' self-image, also causing changes in the feeling of self-esteem. In addition, it triggers feelings such as fear, anguish, insecurity, suffering, shame, apprehension, isolation, loss of autonomy, among others. The evaluation of the self-esteem of ostomized individuals is necessary because the patients go through a sudden change in their standard of living, making it essential for the health team involved in the rehabilitation and coping with this new reality, providing a more natural transition possible.

POLITICIZING THE SOCIAL SCIENCES: ISLAM AND CULTURE AS SOCIO-POLITICAL FACT
Authors:   International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia, Yusof Danial
Published: February 2024

One possible way for a Muslim social scientist to respond and contextualize Islamic discourse is to mediate and cultivate a common perception and understanding between Muslim and non-Muslim readership through an understanding of Islam as a socio-political construct. In this paper, the discussion of Islam as socio-political fact is used to illustrate the impact of Western social sciences on the study of Islam. Through the appropriation of notions of transculture and the politics of identity, post-colonialism and postmodernism, the sociology of Islam is expanded as a paradigm through the understanding of strategic essentialism to deconstruct hegemonic terms of political discourse in academia.

The present study explores the dynamics of phytoplankton and zooplankton in the Swetharanyeswarar temple pond located in the Mayiladuthurai district of Tamil Nadu, India. The study investigates species composition, diversity, and seasonal variations of these microscopic organisms, considering the ecological implications for the local food chain. Phytoplankton (Seven species), dominated by diatoms, cyanobacteria, and various other taxa, plays a fundamental role as primary producers, influencing nutrient cycling and climate patterns. The presence of Microcystis sp., associated with harmful algal blooms, emphasizes the need for monitoring and understanding its ecological implications. Zooplankton (13 species), including Rotifera, Copepods, and Calanoids, showcases a diverse community with distinct taxonomic members. The Rotifer community peaks in January, gradually declining, while Copepods exhibit notable diversity in April. Calanoids, represented by Macrocyclops albidus and Macrocyclops fuscus, display temporal fluctuations in diversity indices, indicating potential ecological changes influenced by environmental factors. The population of each zooplankton group is expressed as an average number of individuals per liter. Water quality parameters, crucial for understanding ecological dynamics, were meticulously measured in triplicates. Statistical analyses were conducted using Microsoft Excel to process and present the data as percentages.

The study establishes a connection between zooplankton dynamics and physicochemical parameters, highlighting correlations with turbidity, pH, and organic pollution indicators, as per the methods of APHA. Monthly variations in zooplankton populations reveal dynamic ecological patterns influenced by temperature and organic matter. The species richness index reflects a well-balanced distribution within the planktonic community, suggesting a healthy and resilient ecosystem in the Swetharanyeswarar temple pond. Statistical analysis involves expressing the zooplankton population as an average number of individuals per liter and presenting water quality parameters as percentages using Microsoft Excel. These findings underscore the importance of continued monitoring to decipher long-term trends and implement targeted strategies for maintaining water quality and ecosystem health.

Minimization of the stress concentration in Formed Parts through Non-Parametric Optimization
Authors: Dahe Salam. O , Kamoon Badr , Hasan Hamzah Kadhim
Published: February 2024

Parametric and non-parametric are the main optimization methods that are used in various industrial fields. In non-parametric optimization, the process of manipulating the node locations (shape optimization) or removing mass without changing the node locations (topology optimization) is adopted to achieve a desired objective. This structural optimization is formulated as a non-parametric problem, and for analysis purposes, ABAQUS/CAE software is adopted for this approach. Manufacturing process like forming is always linked with stress concentration, especially in the sharp ends and variable cross sections like holes and fillets. The problems of representation and finding the optimal and better structural design of some known quantities such as reactions, loads and masses is not easy. A large deflection may be induced in a structure when experiencing severe mechanical loads. In this work, the numerical method has been presented to investigate a method for optimization of formed parts geometry. Numerical examination confirmed that high-stress concentrations are generated in many places. Material distribution is highly influenced by nonlinearity and the new layout will result in intermediate densities. In such cases, the nonlinear elasticity like nonlinear strain must be considered. As a result, the non-parametric optimization can offer good design flexibility to use the existing model with ease of setup and without the need for parameterization. It can provide a conceptual design that can reduce the structure's weight to the maximum extent in the early design stage. This work is going to optimize the design of the formed plates by reducing the volume while maximizing its stiffness. As a recommendation, in order to provide an attractive approach with suitable levels of structural performance, the combination of both optimization methods is the short way to achieve this aim.

Published: February 2024

The growing demands of magnesium (Mg) based materials had risen new challenges related to disposal of unused parts and a huge amount of waste made by such metals. Attempts to recycle the scrap of these materials through remelting had become one of the preferred choices. However, a series of preliminary steps should be carried out to reduce the impurities as well as to maintain the quality of the casted ingot, for instance, by applying de-coating for removing paints or coating substrates at the scrap surface prior to remelting. In this research, the effects of chemical reagent de-coating on the properties of ingot obtained from recycling Mg scrap were studied. A commercial paint removal liquid was preferred as the reagent for removing paint layers over the Mg scrap surface. The de-coated scrap was then remelted in a conventional furnace with NaCl powder as the fluxing layer. The results of this study noticed the importance of chemical de-coating process to reduce the impurity contents in the ingot which might be originated from the coating or paint substrates covering the Mg scrap. Meanwhile, the density and hardness of the Mg ingot processed without de-coating were obviously higher than that had been cleaned previously with paint removing agent.
Numerical Simulation for Cooling of Integrated Toroidal Octagonal Inductor Using Nanofluid in a Microchannel Heat Sink
Authors: Benhadda Yamina , Mokhtaria Derkaoui  , Hayet Kharbouch  , Azzeddine Hamid  , Pierre Spiteri
Published: February 2024

This paper presents a comprehensive numerical simulation study focused on the cooling of integrated toroidal octagonal inductor using nanofluids within a microchannel heat sink. The investigation utilizes COMSOL Multiphysics 6.0 integrated with the Fluid Flow and Conjugate Heat Transfer Module. The primary objective is to explore and understand fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics within the integrated inductor. The study involves testing three distinct fluids, water, CuO-water nanofluid, and Al2O3-water nanofluid, under laminar flow conditions within microchannels. The choice of fluid plays a significant role in heat transfer, interacting with the microchannel geometry to optimize performance. Three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models are meticulously developed; focusing on toroidal inductors equipped with micro pin fins heat sinks. The study commences by detailing the geometry of the micro coil and the integrated heat sink. The simulation encompasses a mathematical model that captures the intricate interplay between the governing Navier-Stokes equations for fluid dynamics and the heat transfer equations within the integrated inductor. As φ increases, temperature, viscosity, and pressure decrease. CuO-water and Al2O3-water nanofluids play a significant role in influencing laminar flow and key thermal parameters in the toroidal inductor. These nanofluids, which consist of base fluids (water) with dispersed nanoparticles (CuO or Al2O3), are employed as cooling agents to enhance heat transfer. The presence of nanoparticles in the fluid alters its thermal properties, leading to changes in the flow dynamics and overall heat dissipation within the toroidal inductor.The laminar flow characteristics are affected by the nanofluid's viscosity, density, and thermal conductivity. Additionally, the Nusselt number, Reynolds number, and thermal resistance are key thermal parameters that reflect the performance of the cooling system. The nanofluid's influence on these parameters is crucial for understanding and optimizing the thermal management of the integrated toroidal inductor.
The enhancement of heat dissipation in the toroidal inductor is achieved through improved thermal properties of the nanofluid. Higher nanoparticle concentrations result in better heat transfer rates, leading to lower temperatures in the toroidal inductor. This, in turn, improves the overall efficiency and performance of the cooling system. The viscosity of the nanofluid is influenced by the presence of nanoparticles. The pressure within the microchannels is also affected by the nanoparticle concentration. An increase in φ can lead to changes in pressure drop along the microchannels. Understanding these variations is crucial for designing an effective cooling system.

The use of non-renewable energy sources causes a reduction in fossil fuel resources, and greenhouse gas emissions. Based on the 2020 Climate Transparency Report, G20 member countries are trying to minimize gas emissions according to the target of the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), that the transportation sector contributes 27% of air pollution. The solution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is to start using electric cars. The change from conventional transportation to electric transportation is expected to reduce carbon emissions and dependency on fossil fuels. However, the transition from conventional transportation to electric transportation raises pros and cons for the people of Indonesia. Social media Twitter is a forum for sharing opinions. Twitter users can express opinions on a matter. This study uses the sentiment analysis method to determine public opinion on the use of electric cars in Indonesia. Sentiment classification was performed using the NBC and SVM Algorithms. The results of this study indicate the use of two different algorithms, namely the Naive Bayes Classifier and SVM with the highest accuracy in Naive Bayes with k = 2 and k = 9 is 88%, while the highest accuracy in SVM with k = 9 and k = 10 is 90%. Thus, SVM has better capabilities than Naive Bayes in this study.

The changing needs of electrical energy result in the electrical power needed for everyday life being unstable, so planning and predicting how much electrical load is needed so that the electricity generated is always of good quality. So it is necessary to predict the consumption of electrical energy by using forecasting on the machine learning method. Support Vector Machine (SVM), Autoregressive Integrated Motion Average (ARIMA), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) are models that are often used to overcome patterns in predictions. To find out the best models how to predict electricity consumption in the future and how the SVM, LSTM, and ARIMA algorithms perform in predicting electricity consumption. This research will look for the RMSE value and prediction time, then compare it with the best average value. The results of the study show that the ARIMA model is able to predict electricity usage for the next 1 year period, in the evaluation using the RMSE metric, where SVM shows a much lower value than ARIMA and LSTM. In this case, SVM achieved RMSE of 0.020, while ARIMA and LSTM achieved RMSE of 7.659 and 11.4183, respectively. Even though SVM has a lower RMSE, it is still unable to predict electricity usage for the next 1 year with sufficient accuracy.

Energy and the environment are one of the most important global issues in the 21st century. In order to avoid the excessive destruction of the environment and human settlements by fossil fuels, and achieve sustainable development of the Earth, clean energy carrier hydrogen shows its application value. Facing the challenges in preparing transition metal phosphides, in this study, transition metal salts and urea were used as raw materials to react under hydrothermal conditions. The transition metal basic carbonate NiCo2(CO3)1.5OH3 was grown in situ on nickel-foam (NF) substrates. After low-temperature phosphating treatment, NiCoP alloy phosphide electrocatalysts (NiCoP/NF) grown on nickel-foam substrates were obtained. The electrochemical hydrogen evolution performance was tested in 1 mol/L KOH alkaline electrolyte solution. Experiments show, NiCoP/NF heterostructure catalyst has excellent hydrogen evolution performance. In an alkaline medium, the overpotential required to obtain the catalytic current density of 10 mA/cm2 is only 93 mV, and the Tafel slope is 118 mV/dec. This is largely due to: 1) the good dispersion of NiCoP/NF nano-catalyst on the Nickel Foam substrate increased the number of active sites exposed; 2) the heterostructure promotes the electron interaction between NiCoP and NF; 3) theoretical calculations show that the construction of NiCoP/NF heterostructure can effectively reduce the dissociation barrier of water, promote the dissociation of water, the kinetic reaction process of electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution is accelerated. Therefore, the construction of NiCoP/NF nanostructured heterogeneous catalysts enriches the application of non-noble metal nanomaterials in the field of hydrogen production from water electrolysis.

Beratung in der Offenen Jugendarbeit ist mit ihren niederschwelligen Settings im Fachdiskurs Sozialer Arbeit kaum präsent. Ausgehend von einem explorativen Forschungsvorhaben im Zuge eines Erasmus+Projekts werden in diesem Beitrag Ergebnisse zu den spezifischen Formen und Dynamiken von Beratungssettings dargelegt. Dabei wird deutlich, dass offene oder gruppenbezogene Settings meist den Ausgangspunkt für Beratung bilden. Das bedarfsorientierte Arrangieren von Gesprächssituationen und die Gestaltung von Übergängen sind daher Kompetenzen, die Fachkräfte benötigen.
