Authors: Lorenz Joachim , Perello-Marin M Rosario , Carrascosa-Lopez Conrado , Müller Michael
Published: March 2024

Organizational Knowledge Loss (OKL) is a significant concern for companies as the loss of knowledge and experience can hinder progress and innovation. This study aims to understand the social structure of OKL. For this purpose, a bibliometric analysis consisting of performance and science mapping analyses was conducted. The results indicate different patterns of influence and cooperation, with Durst emerging as the most influential author. In addition, institutions such as University of Skövde, the University of Hong Kong, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Asian Centre for Organisation Development, and Southwest Jiaotong University are central to promoting cooperation between different research institutions. Understanding the dynamics of research collaboration networks and the role of individual researchers and institutions is crucial for shaping the landscape of knowledge production and dissemination. Future research should consider additional aspects, such as the conceptual and intellectual structure of OKL research. This will allow a more coherent picture to emerge.
Defensive Architecture of the Mediterranean Vol. XIII (FORTMED2023)
Authors: Scientific Committee Fortmed
Published: March 2024

The heritage of military architecture brings together many fields; it’s been called an “inexhaustible source of research and perspectives” for architects, engineers, archaeologists, historians, and operators in the field of cultural heritage. The subject of knowledge and valorization of fortification works presupposes a multidisciplinary approach aimed at recognizing the different values found in the constructions. Only recently has there been an awareness of the importance of this heritage, which is in constant danger; such attention has helped in defining a series of international strategies “for the protection, conservation, interpretation and preservation of fortifications and military heritage” (ICOMOS Guidelines on fortifications and military heritage, 2021). FORTMED 2023 moves within this rich cultural context in the belief that the dissemination of data is the essential tool for sharing knowledge. The international conference Fortifications of the Mediterranean Coast, FORTMED 2023, opens its sixth edition in Pisa. The conference, organized by the Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell’Energia, dei Sistemi, del Territorio e delle Costruzioni (DESTeC) of the University of Pisa, in collaboration and with the contribution of the Municipality of San Giuliano Terme, will be held on March 23, 24, and 25, 2023, at the Centro Congressi Le Benedettine.

Authors: Piątek Elżbieta , Zawadzka Dominika , Ostrowska Bożena
Published: March 2024

Introduction

The aim of the study was to evaluate the subjective impression of trunk deformity in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and to compare the results of the Trunk Appearance Perception Scale (TAPS) with the Cobb angle, extra-school physical activity, and scoliosis occurrence in the family.

Methods

Overall, 26 patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (mean age, 13.5 ± 2.3 years; 100% women) and no prior surgical treatment were included. Each patient completed TAPS and underwent a complete radiographic study of the spine (Cobb angle). Additionally, questions were asked on participation in extracurricular physical activity (yes/no) and scoliosis in the family (parents, siblings – yes/no). A correlation analysis between all variables was performed with chi-square test and Spearman correlation coefficient.

Results

The average TAPS score was 3.4. The patients most often assessed their body deformity between 3 and 4. There was a statistically significant negative correlation between TAPS and the Cobb angle (r = –0.7). Nonsignificant correlation was found between TAPS and extra-school physical activity and scoliosis occurrence in the family.

Conclusions

Bigger angles of spinal curvature were accompanied by lower values of subjective impression of body posture, determined by TAPS. Patients noticed the distorted posture caused by scoliosis and were aware of changes in their silhouette. We did not find the impact of participation in extra-school physical activity or the occurrence of scoliosis in the family on own body image perception.

Published: March 2024

Due to a variety of factors occurring simultaneously in Honduras, the financial sector is undergoing a profound change in every section of the company, including the ones where they are lacking of technology appliance, forcing organizations to adapt to new working methods. In this thesis, the Honduran financial sector attempts to identify the main challenges and benefits it faces when it applies agile methodologies to digital transformation, its barriers, as well as lessons learned. A survey of the Honduran financial sector confirmed three hypotheses, namely a lack of agility knowledge and focus on process and methods beyond model thinking prevent successful agile project management. Additionally, it was identified that through the leaders, it is possible to obtain cultural change within organizations, thereby making the implementation of agile methodologies easier. The study will assist financial organizations in understanding the obstacles that hinder agility implementation. They will also be able to identify the most important aspects to consider, to achieve a management mindset focused on adding value and meeting customer needs, in a complex, and changing environment.

Inisiasi Menyusui Dini (IMD) adalah perilaku pencarian punting payudara ibu sesaat setelah lahir. Hal ini sangat dibutuhkan, karena bayi setelah lahir langsung mendapat asupan gizi dari ASI. Pemberian ASI secara dini juga sangat bermanfaat bagi ibu,terutama untuk merangsangkelancaran ASI. Program IMD merupakan program pendukung dari pemberian ASI Eksklusif pada bayi. Pentingnya pemberian IMD merupakan salah satu cara dalam menyukseskan Kesehatan bayi secara fisik dan psikis yang selama ini masih kurang diterapkan karena cenderung mengabaikan IMD dengan anggapan bahwa putting mengandung kuman dan kotor pada saat ibu bersalin (Fauziah Nasution, 2017).

Metode penelitian yang digunakan Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian deskriptif, Instrumen dalam penelitian ini adalah lembar partograf dan kohort bayi, yang berisi tentang data responden dan pertanyaan mengenai faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi Inisiasi Menyusu Dini, mengenai penatalaksanaan IMD di puskesmas Ampenan.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Dari 56 responden yang dijadikan sampel di Puskesmas Ampenan, sebagian besar berada pada kelompok mutipara ( 2-4) sebanyak 38 orang (67,86 %), pendidikan menengah sebanyak 25 orang (44,64 %), kesehatan ibu sebanyak 56 orang (100 %), kesehatan bayi 54 orang (96,43 %) dan keberhasilan inisiasi menyusu dini sebanyak 54 orang (96,43 %). Ibu bersalin yang berada di Puskesmas Ampenan sebagaian besar  berhasil melakukan inisiasi menyusu dini sebanyak 54 orang ( %).

Peran tenaga kesehatan atai Bidan dalam membimbing proses IMD sudah baik, dan responden yang masih belum melakukan IMD adalah ibu yang memiliki kondisi bayi yang perlu penanganan intensif saat bayi baru lahir.

Published: March 2024

The study aims to highlight the impact of multiple crises on developments and changes in banking systems at the global level. As banking represents the most important channel for capital allocation, globally, the topic impacts policies as well as economies. The paper presents the linkages and developments between the dependent variable credit interest rate and macroeconomic indicators used as dependent variables: unemployment, inflation, capital adequacy ratio and bank assets to GDP. The data were collected and analyzed for a relevant period, between 2013 and 2021, representing the post-financial global crisis and pandemic crisis. The sample includes 30 countries with a combined GDP of around 60% of the global GDP. According to the research results, a balanced relationship between competitiveness, profitability, and sustainability within the financial and banking sectors can be achieved through cooperation between all 30 analyzed countries. Other relevant concerns to develop viable economic policy options should focus primarily on keeping inflation rates at a stable level by the central banks, together with the efficient allocation of funds, diversification of sources of energy, and reducing dependencies.

Dentro de los principales países de origen de la población migrante se encuentran la India, China, México, Rusia y Siria. Mientras que, dentro de los principales países de destino están Estados Unidos, Alemania, Arabia Saudita, Rusia y el Reino Unido. Se ubican, además, en estos bloques de países, economías que por su importancia se han constituido durante las últimas décadas en los motores del crecimiento económico mundial. De manera particular, sobresale el caso de China tanto por sus elevadas tasas de crecimiento económico, como por ser el origen de la irrupción de la pandemia por la COVID-19 que ha venido a alterar la dinámica económica, social y política en el orbe. El objetivo de este trabajo es, por consiguiente, identificar los efectos de la COVID-19 en los flujos migratorios, PIB y el empleo de los principales países de origen y destino de la población migrante internacional para el año 2020. Se pretende revisar qué tan eficientes fueron estos países en el manejo de la pandemia instrumentándose, para ello, la metodología del Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA por sus siglas en inglés). Los resultados dan evidencia de que no hubo un solo país que haya tratado de manera eficiente la pandemia por COVID-19. Sin embargo, quienes tuvieron los mejores resultados fueron Estados Unidos, Australia y el Reino Unido. Mientras que los países con los menores niveles de eficiencia fueron Siria, Arabia Saudita e India, en ese orden. En el caso de México, éste se ubicó en la posición 15 —de los 20 principales países de origen y destino de la población migrante internacional— con un nivel de eficiencia del 0.059.

The article provides a rationale for the possibility of using deconvolution in engineering seismic exploration in order to identify shallow boundaries and layers of low thickness, for example, the roof of rocky soils, tracking groundwater levels, and identifying manifestations of the karst-suffusion process. Despite the somewhat skeptical attitude of geophysicists in the field of shallow-depth studies to some standard procedures for processing oil and gas seismic exploration, deconvolution can be applied to the study of shallow depths without any special conditions. In the article, this thesis is proven using the example of a selection of sufficiently heterogeneous in quality surveys

The paper is about the enhanced oil recovery technology, based on in-situ carbon dioxide generation, after stoichiometric reaction between gas releasing chemical agent and gas producing one. Two ways of technology improvement are considered: for more uniform in-situ CO2 generation and for more safety when chemicals injection. Both ways require sufficient increase of buffer water, which divides reactive chemicals. Larger buffer water volumes, when being mixed with chemicals water solutions, sufficiently drop down chemical concentration. It also decreases CO2 concentration in water solution. Finally, chemicals and CO2 concentrations, for in- situ generation, decrease. To prevent such decrease, it is necessary to adjust, increase chemicals concentration, when preparing chemical water solution, so to consider further dilution in buffer water and to ensure required stoichiometric concentration in reservoir conditions. Increase of chemicals concentration can be also from decrease of chemicals solutions volumes. Quantitative estimates are given for increase of buffer water volumes, for impact of such increase on decrease of initial chemicals concentrations and decrease of CO2 concentration, in water solutions, as well. Working formulas are provided for calculations on buffer water volumes, adjusted, increased concentrations and decrease volumes of chemicals water solutions, at their preparation stage.

Arctic shipping impacts climate change, human health and the environment. The introduction of alternative fuels in Arctic shipping can significantly reduce emissions and impacts, as well as the risk associated with the use and transport of heavy fuel oil. Around the world, alternative fuels are becoming viable alternatives to petroleum-based fuels. There are plans to increase the adoption of alternative fuels, especially ultra-low sulfur fuels, to fuel ships sailing in the Arctic. However, the risk of transport activities on the Arctic shelf is associated with incredibly harsh climatic conditions. A deterministic approach to risk assessment does not provide a complete assessment of transport activities, so the authors propose to use the fuzzy logic method to assess the risks of transport accessibility of ships using fuel with ultra-low sulfur content in the Pechora Sea.

The article provides the results of vibration diagnostics of the MGRI building in order to establish the level of vibrations on the soil foundation and study the nature of the distribution of vibration levels across floors. A significant decrease in vibration acceleration amplitudes was noted with increasing distance from the source to the vibration receiver. The opposite picture is observed when studying the floor-by-floor distribution of vibration background across floors of a building. As the floor increases, the vibration components increase, and the vertical component grows faster than the horizontal one.

The possibility of mechanizing the operation of wedging for the extraction of natural stone was reviewed. The goal is to reduce the weight of the wedges to several kg and reduce the diameter of the holes in the stone where the wedges are installed. The weight of one hydraulic wedge used is 26 kg, not counting the weight of the hydraulic pump with pressure hoses. Among the options for mechanizing stone mining with wedges, the following approaches are considered – the use of the electro-hydraulic effect; application of liquid nitrogen evaporation in a closed volume; use of electromechanical wedge drive. The fourth option was chosen – modernization of the powder actuated fastening tool for the new task. A calculation has been made for a modernized fastening tool. Several fastening tools chambered for a 7,62 × 54,00 mm rifle cartridge with a charge of moderated propagation gunpowder can split a large stone block. Shallow holes are drilled into the stone block into which wedges are inserted. Measures have been taken to compensate for the recoil of a shot. A shot is fired and the wedges, much larger than a concrete anchor, split the stone. The wedges are reusable. The synchronized operation of several tools is ensured by electric firing from one circuit. A modernized tool with an electric triggering for stone mining can weigh below 3,5 kg. The technical details of the proposal are discussed.

Since the beginnings of cancer research, phytochemicals have been a focal point because they were some of the first antineoplastic drugs found (e.g., leucovorin in 1950, carzinophilin in 1954, vincristine in 1963, actinomycin D in 1964, etc.). Additionally, their research is still ongoing today. It is crucial to note that natural substances are used both as adjuvants and chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of cancer. By summarizing the three aspects of natural compounds' anticancer activity, this review offers a fresh perspective on their use in the field of oncology. Chemotherapeutic drugs because of their inherent antitumor effects, chemopreventive drugs, and sensitizers for multi-drug resistance are the first three categories. Numerous active agents are undergoing preclinical and clinical trials right now. It is crucial to draw attention to the important advancements that have been made in this field of study, with some secondary plant metabolites already in use in medicine and others being tested in human clinical trials as anticancer agents. Phytochemicals have numerous positive effects on human health and are crucial in preventing the development and spread of cancer. Through a diet high in fruits and vegetables, as well as with the aid of highly-standardized supplements containing the active compounds, one may achieve the ideal intake of natural chemopreventive agents.

To minimize errors linked to witness statements in criminal cases, it is crucial that justice system participants have knowledge about the factors affecting eyewitness reliability. Previous research has explored the understanding of eyewitness factors among Norwegian judges, psychologists, jury members, and civilians. However, the knowledge of police professionals, who are responsible for collecting and safeguarding evidence obtained from witnesses, has not been studied. Therefore, this study aims to examine the extent of knowledge about eyewitness factors among Norwegian police students.

A group of 54 police students from The Norwegian Police University College in Stavern and Bodø completed an electronic questionnaire containing statements related to various eyewitness factors. The results showed that, on average, the police students accurately responded to 80.7 % of the statements. This level of knowledge is higher than that observed among Norwegian judges, psychologists, jury members, and police officers in other countries.

Additionally, third-year students demonstrated a higher level of knowledge compared to their first-year counterparts, which could suggest that the educational curriculum offered at the Norwegian Police University College is effective in enhancing knowledge levels. However, the study has some limitations, and the results should be interpreted with caution until further research is conducted.

The quadratic phase Fourier transform(QPFT) has received my attention in recent years because of its applications in signal processing. At the same time the applications of Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) and ambiguity function (AF) in signal analysis and image processing can not be excluded. In this paper we investigated the Wigner-Ville Distribution (WVD) and ambiguity function (AF) associated with quadratic phase Fourier transform (WVD-QPFT/AF-QPFT). Firstly, we propose the definition of the WVD-QPFT, and then several important properties of newly defined WVD-QPFT, such as nonlinearity, boundedness, reconstruction formula, orthogonality relation and Plancherel formula are derived. Secondly, we propose the definition of the AF-QPFT, and its with classical AF, then several important properties of newly defined AF-QPFT, such as non-linearity, the reconstruction formula, the time-delay marginal property, the quadratic-phase marginal property and orthogonal relation are studied. Further, a novel quadratic convolution operator and a related correlation operator for WVD-QPFT are proposed. Based on the proposed operators, the corresponding generalized convolution, correlation theorems are studied. Finally, a novel algorithm for the detection of linear frequency-modulated(LFM) signal is presented by using the proposed WVD-QPFT and AF-QPFT.

This study focus on determining the unknown function of time or space in space-time fractional differential equation
by fractional Taylor series method. A significant advantage of this method is that over-measured data is not used unlike most inverse problems.
This advantage allows us to determine the unknown function with less error. The presented examples illustrate that the obtained solutions are in a high agreement with the exact solutions of the corresponding inverse problems.

Let Fq be a finite field, where q is a power of a prime p such that p>5. Let \alpha be a root of a monic polynomial of a minimal degree over Fq. In this paper, we will study elliptic curves over (Fq[\alpha],+,*), where + is the usual addition and * represent a non-standard product law over Fq[\alpha]. Elliptic curves over this ring can be used to create a new type of cryptography. The method is fast, simple, and secure.

Deliberative mini-publics (DMPs) have attracted growing attention from both researchers and practitioners in recent years. Their purpose is to assemble random groups of citizens, representing a cross section of society, in order to engage in discussions about policy issues and formulate recommendations. During these sessions, partici­pants are exposed to contrasting perspectives from experts and engage in respectful internal delibera­tions, facilitated by organizers, before arriving at a carefully considered joint policy position on the topic at hand. DMPs are grounded in the belief that citizen involvement and input are essential if policy reforms are to be perceived as legitimate by the public. In the agri-food domain, they represent an innovative way to rebuild public trust in the food system, allowing citizens to reshape food policy in alignment with their values and concerns. In this study, we conducted a scoping review of the literature to assess the contexts in which food-related DMPs emerge, as well as their organiza­tional characteristics, procedural qualities, and results. We identified a total of 24 case studies, revealing significant diversity between DMPs in terms of their policy themes, formats, and recruitment and decision-making procedures. In terms of results, participants reported that attend­ing the DMP had been a positive experience and had increased their awareness of, and ability to engage in, food policy debates. However, only a handful of DMPs led to documented policy reforms. We argue that greater emphasis should be placed on post-deliberation activities and dialogues if DMPs are to make a meaningful impact and contribute to the democratization of food systems.

Cancer immunotherapy is an effective with critical approaches in the treatment of oncological patients. Whilst numerous research and clinical trials are underway to develop endogenous immunotherapy approaches, it is necessary to focus on fundamental issues and identify barriers to basic clinical progress. Addressing these challenges and the new pathways will require researchers and clinicians to join forces to accelerate the understanding of the complex interactions between cancer and the immune system and focus resources on developing better treatments for patients.
