A Soliton Solution for the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Model Using Two Novel Schemes
Authors: Ali Asghar , Javed Sara , Nadeem Muhammad , Iambor Loredana Florentina , Mureşan Sorin
Published: July 2023

Symmetries are crucial to the investigation of nonlinear physical processes, particularly the evaluation of a differential problem in the real world. This study focuses on the investigation of the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) model within a (3+1)-dimensional domain, governing the behavior of wave propagation in a medium characterized by both nonlinearity and dispersion. The inquiry employs two distinct analytical techniques to derive multiple soliton solutions and multiple solitary wave solutions. These methods include the modified Sardar sub-equation technique and the Darboux transformation (DT). The modified Sardar sub-equation technique is used to obtain multiple soliton solutions, while the DT is introduced to develop two bright and two dark soliton solutions. These solutions are presented alongside their corresponding constraint conditions and illustrated through 3-D, 2-D, and contour plots to physically portray the derived solutions. The results demonstrate that the employed analytical techniques are useful and have not yet been explored in the context of the analyzed models. The proposed methodologies are valuable and can be applied to additional nonlinear evolutionary models employed to describe nonlinear physical models within the domain of nonlinear science.

Authors: Zhang Danyang , Li Xiongwei , Ren Guoquan , Yao Jiangyi , Chen Kaiyan , Li Xi
Published: July 2023

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) path planning research refers to the UAV automatically planning an optimal path to the destination under the corresponding environment, while avoiding collision with obstacles in this process. In order to solve the problem of 3D path planning of UAV in a dynamic environment, a heuristic dynamic reward function is designed to guide the UAV. We propose the Environment Exploration Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (EE-TD3) algorithm, which combines the symmetrical 3D environment exploration coding mechanism on the basis of TD3 algorithm. The EE-TD3 algorithm model can effectively avoid collisions, improve the training efficiency, and achieve faster convergence speed. Finally, the performance of the EE-TD3 algorithm and other deep reinforcement learning algorithms was tested in the simulation environment. The results show that the EE-TD3 algorithm is better than other algorithms in solving the 3D path planning problem of UAV.

Authors: Wang Jianhua , Zhang Mengyuan , Yang Junhua , Yang Xianli , Zhang Jiahui , Zhao Zhihui
Published: July 2023

Trichothecenes are the most common Fusarium toxins detected in grains and related products. Type A trichothecenes are among the mycotoxins of greatest concern to food and feed safety due to their high toxicity. Recently, two different trichothecene genotypes within Fusarium species were reported. The available information showed that Tri1 and Tri16 genes are the key determinants of the trichothecene profiles of T-2 and DAS genotypes. In this review, polymorphisms in the Tri1 and Tri16 genes in the two genotypes were investigated. Meanwhile, the functions of genes involved in DAS and NEO biosynthesis are discussed. The possible biosynthetic pathways of DAS and NEO are proposed in this review, which will facilitate the understanding of the synthesis process of trichothecenes in Fusarium strains and may also inspire researchers to design and conduct further research. Together, the review provides insight into trichothecene profile differentiation and Tri gene evolutionary processes responsible for the structural diversification of trichothecene produced by Fusarium.
SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Is Capable of Inducing Cell–Cell Fusions Independent from Its Receptor ACE2 and This Activity Can Be Impaired by Furin Inhibitors or a Subset of Monoclonal Antibodies
Authors: Reuter Nina , Chen Xiaohan , Kropff Barbara , Peter Antonia Sophia , Britt William J. , Mach Michael , Überla Klaus , Thomas Marco
Published: July 2023

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which was responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, efficiently spreads cell-to-cell through mechanisms facilitated by its membrane glycoprotein spike. We established a dual split protein (DSP) assay based on the complementation of GFP and luciferase to quantify the fusogenic activity of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. We provide several lines of evidence that the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, but not SARS-CoV-1, induced cell–cell fusion even in the absence of its receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). This poorly described ACE2-independent cell fusion activity of the spike protein was strictly dependent on the proteasomal cleavage of the spike by furin while TMPRSS2 was dispensable. Previous and current variants of concern (VOCs) differed significantly in their fusogenicity. The Delta spike was extremely potent compared to Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Kappa, while the Omicron spike was almost devoid of receptor-independent fusion activity. Nonetheless, for all analyzed variants, cell fusion was dependent on furin cleavage and could be pharmacologically inhibited with CMK. Mapping studies revealed that amino acids 652-1273 conferred the ACE2-independent fusion activity of the spike. Unexpectedly, residues proximal to the furin cleavage site were not of major relevance, whereas residue 655 critically regulated fusion. Finally, we found that the spike’s fusion activity in the absence of ACE2 could be inhibited by antibodies directed against its N-terminal domain (NTD) but not by antibodies targeting its receptor-binding domain (RBD). In conclusion, our BSL-1-compatible DSP assay allowed us to screen for inhibitors or antibodies that interfere with the spike’s fusogenic activity and may therefore contribute to both rational vaccine design and development of novel treatment options against SARS-CoV-2.

Cancer patients on chemotherapy have a lower immune response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Therefore, through a prospective cohort study of patients with solid tumors receiving chemotherapy, we aimed to determine the immunogenicity of an mRNA vaccine booster (BNT162b2) among patients previously immunized with an inactivated (CoronaVac) or homologous (BNT162b2) SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with anti-SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody (NAb) seropositivity at 8–12 weeks post-booster. The secondary end points included IgG antibody (TAb) seropositivity and specific T-cell responses. A total of 109 patients were included. Eighty-four (77%) had heterologous vaccine schedules (two doses of CoronaVac followed by the BNT162b2 booster) and twenty-five had (23%) homologous vaccine schedules (three doses of BNT162b2). IgG antibody positivity for the homologous and heterologous regimen were 100% and 96% (p = 0.338), whereas NAb positivity reached 100% and 92% (p = 0.13), respectively. Absolute NAb positivity and Tab levels were associated with the homologous schedule (with a beta coefficient of 0.26 with p = 0.027 and a geometric mean ratio 1.41 with p = 0.044, respectively). Both the homologous and heterologous vaccine regimens elicited a strong humoral and cellular response after the BNT162b2 booster. The homologous regimen was associated with higher NAb positivity and Tab levels after adjusting for relevant covariates.
About the efficiency limits of strategic planning methods in public administration and ways to overcome them. Part 1
Authors: Zubenko A.
Published: July 2023

The external environment has always influenced the formation of approaches to strategic state planning and management. The cyclical nature of world economic processes, on the one hand, creates a conditionally reproducible and therefore predictable model of the external environment, but on the other hand, this environment is dynamically uncertain, and the methods of overcoming this uncertainty are the tools of strategic forecasting, planning and strategizing. The proposed article is the first in a series of articles on the limits of the effectiveness of strategic planning methods in public administration and is devoted to cyclicity and the challenges associated with it. On the example of the USSR, such an instrument of strategic public administration as project activity is briefly considered.

Authors: Anderson Amy , Riordan April , Smith Lavasha , Hillard Bridget , Sánchez Bernadette
Published: July 2023

The current paper presents lessons learned from a research-to-practice partnership between mentoring program practitioners and researchers that focused on the development and implementation of a cultural humility training for volunteer mentors. Using multiple data sources (e.g., training materials, field notes, mentor surveys), we present a description of the research-to-practice partnership and the Culturally Smart Relationships pilot training content. We generate practice-oriented lessons to inform future cultural humility training work with staff and volunteers in youth programs. Our lessons reflect recommendations that emerged from five project phases: (a) organizational commitment to justice, equity, diversity, inclusion; (b) training curriculum and logistical planning; (c) “To Zoom, or not to Zoom''; (d) facilitation of the training; and (e) post-training and ongoing support. The pilot training content and lessons learned have implications for youth programs by elucidating training as one component of a broader approach for equity in youth developmental program practice.

Authors: Hawkins Vernelle , Dietrich Deborah
Published: July 2023

Southeast Pennsylvania 4-H Extension educators identified a need for professional development in order to further develop current urban 4-H programs. The expectation was that increased awareness and knowledge would lead to increased skills competency in planning, implementing, and evaluating urban 4-H youth development programs. An interstate professional development program was developed to inform practitioners on positive youth development in urban communities. The 2-day program included on-site observations of urban programs and professional development on best practices. The event was scheduled as a study tour that involved intentional focus on practical applications of research theory for informal education. The Penn State Extension 4-H Urban Study Tour included on-site observations, program development, and networking leading to the successful development of action plans for local implementation. The program was evaluated for impact using pre- and post-tour survey tools. Results suggest that the participants gained value from the professional development study tour, thus similar opportunities may be warranted.

How relevant is the metal trades brand for work-ready students to consider as a serious career?
Authors:   , Meek Phillip
Published: July 2023

Due to a significant skills shortage within the metal trades, the purpose of this research project was to identify if the metal trades ’brand’ is outdated or out of touch with the current work-ready generation of students, and if so, what paths can this industry explore to attract young people into the industry. This research aimed to determine ‘How relevant is the metal trades brand for work-ready students to consider as a serious career option?’ by exploring these underlying themes: 1. Is the metal trade and the perception of its brand suitable as a recruiting tool? 2. What attracts work-ready school students to a particular career path? 3. What are the drivers and influencers of their decisions? A mixed-method approach gathered data through a quantitative survey and semi-structured qualitative interviews. Students in the Otago region participated in an online survey to assist with interview questions discussing career pathways and the motivations and influencers around those career choices. To confirm industries’ experience and the implications of the current employment shortage, engineering companies, including labour-hire companies, vocational training and pathway organisations, were interviewed. These companies were associated with my company’s operations in Dunedin and Sydney. Data was gathered from four participant groups: Work-ready students; Industry; Labour hire; Vocational training organisations. Data was gathered on these four groups, outlining their relationship through the lens of my diary notes, personal experience, and self-reflection. The key outcome of my research project is that knowledge is empowering. In the context of career pathway decisions, the nature and extent of this knowledge are vital for the metal trades to be seen as a serious career option. The metal trades are made up of small individual businesses that do not have the resources or influence to promote themselves to school leavers against the backdrop of universities and high-profile trade recruitment machines. The recommendation of this research is to share that knowledge of the metal trades as a viable career through an industry body, which is not currently available. The industry body would provide a cohesive and influencing strategy to spread and promote the benefits of the metal trade to the public, schools, parents, and students as a serious career option.
Cross-Subject Emotion Recognition Brain–Computer Interface Based on fNIRS and DBJNet
Authors: Si Xiaopeng , He Huang , Yu Jiayue , Ming Dong
Published: July 2023

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a noninvasive brain imaging technique that has gradually been applied in emotion recognition research due to its advantages of high spatial resolution, real time, and convenience. However, the current research on emotion recognition based on fNIRS is mainly limited to within-subject, and there is a lack of related work on emotion recognition across subjects. Therefore, in this paper, we designed an emotion evoking experiment with videos as stimuli and constructed the fNIRS emotion recognition database. On this basis, deep learning technology was introduced for the first time, and a dual-branch joint network (DBJNet) was constructed, creating the ability to generalize the model to new participants. The decoding performance obtained by the proposed model shows that fNIRS can effectively distinguish positive versus neutral versus negative emotions (accuracy is 74.8%, F1 score is 72.9%), and the decoding performance on the 2-category emotion recognition task of distinguishing positive versus neutral (accuracy is 89.5%, F1 score is 88.3%), negative versus neutral (accuracy is 91.7%, F1 score is 91.1%) proved fNIRS has a powerful ability to decode emotions. Furthermore, the results of the ablation study of the model structure demonstrate that the joint convolutional neural network branch and the statistical branch achieve the highest decoding performance. The work in this paper is expected to facilitate the development of fNIRS affective brain–computer interface.

Published: July 2023

This study aims to trace the track record of management control system research found in reputable international journals (Journal of Management Accounting Research). To obtain accurate research results, we documented research published during the 2021 period of 45 reputable articles. We found that research in the field of management control systems is a very interesting issue to study. Several previous findings strengthen the trend of management accounting research, especially in the field of MCS which is mostly associated with internal and external resources of the company. In addition, MAR research with the MCS theme makes an important contribution not only to the development of the complexity of the existing literature, but also becomes material for study by experts, stakeholders, and the government in formulating policies and strategies related to current and future corporate issues.
An Austrian Critique of Passive Investing
Authors: Daher Trevor , Rapp David
Published: July 2023

This article reviews numerous arguments Austrian scholars have made against the efficient market hypothesis and asserts that these arguments are sufficient grounds for dismissal of many of the theoretical justifications which have been advanced in favor of passive investing, and in favor of the traditional value-weighted index fund in particular. In the absence of theoretical justification, empirical test results are the primary evidence to substantiate passive investing’s claim to superiority relative to alternative investment strategies—results which, this article contends, are insufficient grounds for acceptance of the claim. Finally, it is argued that the much-emphasized contradistinction between active and passive investing is lacking in substance. The passive portfolio’s construction is the product of subjective human judgment just as the actively managed portfolio is; passive investing merely involves a different kind of judgment.

Design of Automatic Solar Cleaning System
Authors: Wicaksono Satrio , Aceng Daud  , Sri Paryanto Mursid
Published: July 2023

Solar panels are devices in a solar power generation system that utilize solar energy to produce electrical energy. The efficiency of solar panels is affected by the absorption of sunlight intensity. Dust that sticks to the surface of the solar panels causes a decrease in performance of 5-15%. Although there are various cleaning methods, most of them are done manually with the potential for work accidents due to the location of the solar panels at a height. Therefore, this study developed an automatic cleaning system with wet cleaning method to overcome this problem. Experiments on the designed device show that the energy consumption of the cleaning system is 5.4131 kWh/year, with a cleaning frequency of 2 times per year. Solar panel energy production without using an automatic cleaning system is 59.55% lower than solar panel energy production using an automatic cleaning system. This shows that the automatic cleaning system has important role to optimizing the performance of solar panels so that they can produce energy optimally

Published: July 2023

Our lives have become intertwined with social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. They provide us with a platform to express our opinions and share our thoughts with the world. However, some individuals abuse the freedom of expression afforded to them by these platforms and utilize them to disseminate content that is derogatory and promotes hate speech. This has become a significant problem today, and detecting such content is a challenging task. In this research paper, we propose a solution for hate speech detection in social media using natural language processing techniques. We use a publicly available dataset provided by CrowdFlower and perform text pre-processing to clean the dataset. We then conduct feature engineering to extract key features that can be used in machine learning classification algorithms. We compare the performance of various algorithms about each feature set and conduct an in-depth analysis of the results obtained.

The conceptual structure of Basque buru ‘head’i
Authors: Ibarretxe-Antuñano Iraide
Published: July 2023

The prototypical meaning of the Basque word buru is ‘head’. As is the case in many other languages, the word for head is polysemous not only because it refers to this body part but also because it can be used in several other contexts (buru as mind, reflexive pronoun, self…). Although dictionaries deal with these meanings separately, I propose that all these senses form an organised lexical network with three main nodes of extended meanings. These three nodes are structured and bound to the prototypical buru by means of three different metonymies: WHOLE FOR PART, ENTITY FOR LOCATION, AND PART FOR WHOLE. These three metonymies conform the conceptual basis for the rest of the semantic extensions in buru, which are obtained with the help of other cognitive devices such as metaphor and compositional polysemy.

During the last decades of the 21st century, Climate Change (CC) has occupied an important place on the international agenda, not only because of the catastrophic attacks it unleashes; but rather, due to the direct challenges it poses to States, companies, international organizations and the entire social plate in neutralizing, mitigating or redirecting their responses to the mega-impact. Its effects, such as extreme weather incidents, the increase in temperature,the melting of glaciers, the scarcity of resources, and the fierce immediate and colossal damage to the environment and the social terrain do not have a deadline. Faced with this daunting concern, environmental education has defined its role in promoting ecological awareness, training citizens for sustainable development, but, above all, facing the challenge of understanding the problems in a solid way, while incorporate integrated solutions. In this line, this essay covers the relationship between environmental education and CC, highlighting the indisputable importance of incorporating environmental issues into educational curricula to forge and harden their role in the midst of one of the greatest threats of the 21st century.

The aim of this study was to analyze the growth and maturity level of puffer fish (Tetraodon fluviatilus). This research was conducted in October-December 2017. The research site consisted of two places, namely sampling conducted in two locations of the brackish waters of Merauke Regency while the analysis and identification of growth and maturity level of the gonads was carried out in the laboratory of Department of Aquatic Resources Management, Universitas Musamus. Sampling was conducted at Lampu Satu Beach (station I) and Payum beach (station II) using descriptive methods and survey techniques. Sampling was carried out six times at each station for three months. To find out the growth and maturity level of pufferfish gonads, an analysis of growth patterns, condition factors, sex ratio and gonad maturity levels was performed. The results of the study showed that the growth of puffer fish at Station I was negative allometric while at Station two it was positive allometric. The mean value of the puffer fish condition at Station I was 0.0499 while that at Station II was 0.7062. Gonadal maturity level (TKG) at station I and II are at TKG I, at station I is 79.04% while at station II is 69.77%. Based on the results of research conducted it can be concluded that the growth patterns and TKG at Station I are better than Station II.

EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL NO BRASIL

Published: July 2023

O presente artigo tem como objetivo expor os argumentos dos grupos sociais que disputam a Educação Especial no Brasil, presentes no Decreto nº10.502/2020. Foram analisados documentos lançados pelo governo federal e também aqueles elaborados por instituições privadas consideradas de referência na área, como a Fenapaes, Feneis e Pestalozzi. A análise foi realizada a partir dos conceitos gramscianos, a saber, estado integral, sociedade política, sociedade civil e hegemonia. Apresentamos três argumentos dos encontrados nesses documentos: 1) Muitos educandos público-alvo da educação especial não se beneficiam das escolas regulares; 2) As escolas especializadas apresentam inúmeros benefícios para a educação especial; 3) A família pode escolher o melhor lugar para a escolarização do estudante. Percebemos que existem argumentos em consenso entre os documentos lançados pelo o governo federal e as entidades privadas e que o Decreto nº 10.502/2020 propõe reforçar a lógica empresarial na área da Educação Especial e ampliar a privatização. Destacamos a importância da luta por uma educação pública, presencial, estatal, laica, com financiamento público e exclusivo para escolas públicas.

Published: July 2023

Este trabalho tem como objetivo fazer uma reflexão acerca do Plano Nacional de Educação (PNE) 2014, em especial a “Meta 4”, aos pressupostos de escola integral de Antônio Gramsci. Ao longo da pesquisa observamos algumas incongruências na “Meta 4”, pois, se a proposta de universalização do ensino para aluno público alvo da educação especial, aproxima-se dos princípios desse teórico, no que se relaciona à proposta de escola de formação integral  e para todos, contraditoriamente,  o mesmo documento, configura-se como espaço de disputas de forças hegemônicas no qual determinados grupos apropriam-se das contradições apresentadas na lei, para ofertar um ensino segregador e implementar  na sociedade ideias da classe dominante. Percebemos que embora os escritos deste autor perduram mais de um século os mesmos continuam atuais. Nota-se ainda, que o mesmo documento apresenta um caráter progressista e contraditório com relação ao AEE, configurando-se como espaço de luta pela hegemonia.

Machine learning based Comprehensive Study for Stock Market Prediction of Pharmaceutical Industry Index on Covid 19
Authors: Salehpour Arash , Samadzaminix Karim
Published: July 2023

This research examines how COVID-19 vaccinations impact the accuracy of machine-learning models in forecasting the Tehran Stock Exchange's Pharmaceutical Companies Index. The study analyses daily vaccination and stock data during the pandemic using statistical and linear regression models. Results reveal a negative correlation between vaccinations and the stock index. Two regression models were developed, one with vaccination data and one without. Although both models fit the training data well, the latter performed significantly better on the test set with lower errors. This suggests that vaccination data does not enhance the predictive ability of the regression model for the stock index during the pandemic. In fact, excluding vaccination data leads to better predictive performance. Therefore, accelerating vaccination programs could aid in the stock market recovery. However, avoiding vaccination data as an input feature for machine learning models forecasting this pharmaceutical stock index is advisable.
Improving the environmental performance of diesel engines by using inorganic additives to petroleum diesel fuel

Published: July 2023

The possibility of improving the environmental performance of diesel engines by using inorganic additives to petroleum diesel fuel is considered. As such additives, organometallic compounds insoluble in petroleum fuels containing metals of variable valence (Mn, Cu, Fe), alkali-earth metals (Ca, Mg, Ba) or the ammonia radical NH4 are used. A simple way to supply these additives to the combustion chamber of a diesel engine is to use an initial pressure control valve installed in front of the nozzle of each cylinder in the high-pressure line. Experimental studies of diesel engines of types 1 H 8.5/11, 4 H 8.5/11 and 4 H 11/12.5 with the use of these inorganic additives allowed us to determine their optimal concentrations by the effect of exposure to ignition and combustion processes, as well as suppression of soot formation. An analytical expression has been obtained that can be used for preliminary determination of the reduction of the soot content in the exhaust gases of a diesel engine depending on the additive content in the fuel.
