Shrinking pupal cocoons of Rhyacophila lezeyi (Trichoptera, Rhyacophilidae) in a highly acidic stream during the summer season
Authors: Aoya Kokichi , Hayakawa Atsushi , Iwata Tomoya , Tanida Kazumi
Published: September 2023

Shrinking pupal cocoons of Rhyacophila lezeyi were often found during summer in Shibukuro Stream, a highly acidic mountain stream in northern Japan (pH = 2.82 on average). We performed both field surveys and laboratory rearing experiments to clarify the mechanisms of R. lezeyi cocoon shrinkage. The R. lezeyi cocoon shrinkage proportion increased in years with high stream water temperatures and was related to water temperatures before and after pupation at the study site. Approximately 90% of the prepupae and pupae inside the shrinking cocoons died during the rearing experiment, implying that cocoon shrinkage caused by high water temperature strongly influenced R. lezeyi pupal survival. Laboratory experiments showed that R. lezeyi’s pupal cocoon membranes were semi-permeable and that the cocoon fluids were always hyperosmotic, indicating that water molecules can continuously enter the cocoon fluids from the stream water until the turgor of the cocoon wall is reached. However, the shrinking cocoons showed lower fluid volume and higher osmolarity than the normal turgescent cocoons. The reduction of osmotic gradient across the membrane during decreased stream flow due to less precipitation and/or the damage to the cocoon membrane and pupal body from high and fluctuating water temperatures and low pH are possible mechanisms for R. lezeyi pupal cocoon shrinkage.

Glass fibre composites recycling using the fluidised bed: A study into the economic viability in the UK
Authors: Pender Kyle , Yang Liu
Published: September 2023

As it stands, the UK has no commercialised process capable of recycling waste glass fibre reinforced thermosets, resulting in disposal via landfill or energy from waste facilities. Thermal recycling within a fluidised bed process has been demonstrated to successfully recover clean glass fibre from composite waste materials, such as wind turbine blades, and successfully reuse it as a reinforcement phase in second life composites. If brought to a commercial scale, this technology has the potential to divert up to 1200 kt of mixed glass fibre reinforced plastics (GRP) waste and an additional 240 kt of wind blade waste away from UK landfill sites over the next fifteen years, while offsetting the environmental impact and raw material consumption of virgin glass fibre production. Despite this, commercialisation and long-term success depend on economic viability and resilience of the recycling technology, ensuring that sufficient value is added to offset costs required to bring recyclate products to market. In this study, techno-economic analysis was used to analyse the economic outlook for at scale fluidised bed recycling plants within the context of the current and future UK glass fibre reinforced plastic waste landscape. It was found that fluidised bed recycling plants operating well within current UK waste volumes can maintain gate fees that are competitive with landfill while producing recycled glass fibre (rGF) at less than 50% of the prices of virgin counterparts. Plants processing single waste streams, such as wind blades, can maintain long term profitability despite irregular flow of waste feedstock availability. Despite higher transportation cost, total recycling costs are lower for national level plants. Therefore, it is recommended to accept composites from multiple waste streams to maximise operating capacity, profits and return on investment.

Authors: Aridi Amalisha Sabie , Burrell Darrell Norman , Richardson Kevin
Published: September 2023

Executive leadership coaching can have significant benefits for police officers and law enforcement agencies in addressing critical issues such as race relations, misconduct, and professionalism. Leadership coaches can help police officers develop a deeper understanding of their own biases and improve their cultural competence. This increased self-awareness enables leaders to foster a more inclusive and respectful work environment, promoting better relationships between officers and diverse communities. Additionally, coaching can help officers enhance their decision-making skills, encouraging them to implement fair and just policies that prioritize accountability and transparency. Ultimately, executive leadership coaching empowers police officers and their superiors to create a more equitable and trustworthy law enforcement system, benefiting both the officers and the communities they serve. This chapter uses theories and research from the literature to argue for the viability of the deployment of executive coaching as a tool to develop better police leaders at every level.

Authors: Lakra Sangeeta , Mukherjee Sanat K. , Roy Sumit K. , Kumar Mrityunjay
Published: September 2023

Piezoelectric ceramics possess very high piezoelectric coefficients but lacks the conformability for using them in flexible devices, in high-resolution sensing devices that can be integrated to human skin and other such applications. This problem can be resolved by blending them in appropriate proportion with polymers which are intrinsically light weight, stable and flexible. In this paper polymer composites xPZT– (1-x) PVDF (x= 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25) were prepared by solution casting method and their dielectric and its mechanical properties were studied. Given that PZT has a very high dielectric value, the composite's dielectric constant grew as the filler concentration increased which shows better dipole alignment in the composite. With an increase in filler concentration, the composite loses flexibility and tensile strength. Due to their greater Young's modulus than pure PVDF film, the films with compositions x=0.025 and x=0.05 could have better piezoelectric characteristics.

Authors: Papazoglou Emmanouil Lazaros , Karkalos Nikolaos E. , Karmiris-Obratański Panagiotis , Markopoulos Angelos P.
Published: September 2023

Additive manufacturing is considered an important alternative way for the fabrication of high quality polymer parts for various applications. Especially, Acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (ASA) is a promising thermoplastic polymer, exhibiting favorable mechanical properties and is also resistant to environmental conditions and various chemical substances. Given that it is possible to process this material through Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technology, it is required that optimal conditions are determined based on various criteria. Especially, as manufactured parts are expected to withstand various types of loads, the fabrication process should ensure adequate mechanical behavior under different conditions. For that reason, it is important both to determine the appropriate printing settings and investigate the mechanical behavior of additively manufactured ASA parts. In the present study, compression tests are conducted and statistical analysis is performed on the obtained results, in order to determine the mechanical properties of ASA parts with different infill densities for two different infill patterns. The results indicated that the reduced mechanical properties, in respect to the infill density are inversely correlated with the infill density and that honeycomb infill pattern is superior to gyroid in every case for the same infill density.

Published: September 2023

In this study the effect of laser heat treatment (LHT) and severe shot peening (SSP) on laser powder bed fusion manufactured AISI 316L stainless steel is investigated. The effect of LHT and SSP on the hardness of the surface of the PBF-LB 316L is studied performing microhardness measurements. Microstructure is evaluated in the EBSD investigation. The residual stresses will be measured to determine the influence of LHT and SSP. The effects of LHT and SSP on tensile and bending fatigue strength will be evaluated. LHT altered the microstructure 200 µm from the surface. The grain structure on the surface was more ordered and no substructure or local strains were present. Finer grain features adjacent to the sample surface were found, which are most likely caused by effective recrystallization and fast cooling. The grain morphology was left relatively unchanged when SSP was applied on LHT surface. However, local deformation has occurred on the surface, and clear orientation gradient within grains is seen. LHT had no effect on the hardness. SSP increased the surface hardness by 205%. LHT decreased the yield or tensile strength of the PBF-LB 316L. Residual stress measurements showed that SSP induced a high compressive stress in the PBF-LB 316L. LHT and SSP significantly improved the fatigue strength of the PBF-LB manufactured 316L.

Published: September 2023

This paper investigates the machinability of Selective Laser Melted 17-4 Precipitation Hardening Stainless Steel (17-4 PH SS). For this purpose, turning tests were carried out on wrought and SLM specimens and the results were compared. Wear tool, surface roughness, surface integrity and chip morphology were analyzed for both materials. For the tested cutting conditions, the machinability of the SLM material was inferior to that of the commercial material. Dissimilarities in machinability between both materials are a consequence of variations in their microstructures resulting from the manufacturing process.

Authors: Imamah Mia Nurul , Utomo Nugroho , Sholichin Ibnu
Published: September 2023

According to data from the Jombang Regency Traffic Traffic Unit of December 2022, there were 114 cases of traffic accidents on the Jombang-Kertosono arterial road. Thus, an analysis of road safety is needed on this road section. The author analyzes the application of road safety using the IPA (Importance Performance Analysis) method, the EAN (Equivalent Accident Number) method, and geometric calculations of roads in accident-prone areas. Based on the analysis of the application of road safety using the IPA method, it is known that the main priority attributes in driving safety are traffic signs and road markings as well as sharp turns which are quite dangerous for motorists. Based on the analysis of accident-prone areas using the EAN method, it is known that STA 01+00 – 02+00 has the highest EAN score of 249 accidents. Based on the road geometric review, it is known that the stopping sight distance of STA 01+00 – 02+00 is 46.78 m which when compared to the standard stopping sight distance is not sufficient and is considered less safe. The value of the side freedom area according to the calculation analysis is 5.4 m which is greater than the available E value, which is 4 m, so it is considered less safe. There are 2 suggested bends using the Spiral-Circle-Spiral type and 2 Spiral-Spiral type bends where each of these bends requires widening the average road pavement width of 1 meter to reduce the risk of traffic accidents on bends due to adequate road width.

Bu çalışmada, bor atıklarından üretilen silika aerojelin tuğlanın basınç dayanımı ve ısıl performansına etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma üç aşamada gerçekleştirilmiştir. İlk aşamada Türkiye/Eskişehir/Kırka bölgesinden temin edilen bor atığı kullanılarak silika aerojel üretimi yapılmıştır. İkinci aşamada, üretilen silika aerojel hacimce farklı oranlarda (%0 (REF), %15 (AB1), %25 (AB2), %35 (AB3), %45 (AB4)) tuğla bünyesine ikame edilmiş, 900 oC ve 1000 oC pişirilerek katkılı tuğla numuneleri üretilmiştir. Üçüncü ve son aşamada ise, üretilen numunelere basınç dayanımı ve ısı iletim katsayısı tayini deneyleri uygulanmıştır. Ayrıca numunelerin içyapısının incelenmesi amacıyla SEM görüntüleri alınmıştır. Sonuç olarak; her iki sıcaklıkta da aerojel miktarının artması ile basınç dayanımı ve ısı iletim katsayısı değerinde azalma meydana gelmiştir. SEM görüntülerinde silika aerojel miktarının artmasıyla amorf yapının artığı ve yer yer boşluklar ve çatlaklar oluştuğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca basınç dayanımı baz alındığında; üretilen numunelerden AB1 numunesi taşıyıcı olarak kullanılabileceği, AB2, AB3 ve AB4 numunelerinin ise kaplama veya geleneksel yapılarda duvar dolgu malzemesi olarak kullanılabileceği tespit edilmiştir. Bor atığı gibi silis içeren atıkların aerojel üretiminde kullanılmaları atıkların bertaraf edilmesi için uygun bir çözüm yolu olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Rice is known to be one of the most essential crops in Turkey, as well as many other countries especially in Asia, whereas paddy rice cropping systems have a key role in many processes ranging from human nutrition to environment-related perspectives. Therefore, determination of cultivation area is still a hot topic among researchers from various disciplines, planners, and decision makers. In present study, it was aimed to evaluate performances of three classifications algorithms among most widely used ones, namely, maximum likelihood (ML), random forest (RF), and k-nearest neighborhood (KNN), for paddy rice mapping in a mixed cultivation area located in Biga District of Çanakkale Province, Turkey. Visual, near-infrared and shortwave infrared bands of Landsat 9 acquired in dry season of 2022 year was utilized. The classification scheme included six classes as dense vegetation (D), sparse vegetation (S), agricultural field (A), water surface (W), residential area – base soil (RB), and paddy rice (PR). The performances were tested using the same training samples and accuracy control points. The reliability of each classification was evaluated through accuracy assessments considering 150 equalized randomized control points. Accordingly, RF algorithym could identify PR areas with over 96.0% accuracy, and it was followed by KNN with 92.0%.

Authors: YAVUZ Hicri
Published: September 2023

One of the crucial components of the brake system is the brake pads. Due to its importance in the sector, researchers have carried out many recent studies on this subject. In this study, two different brake pad samples were developed from alumina material and micronized quartz material as friction modifiers. Samples containing 12% alumina and micronized quartz were produced by hot molding method. The friction coefficient and wear rates were established in the brake pad tester in order to assess the performance of the created brake pad samples. Density, hardness, and microscopic analyses of the samples, which are other important parameters, were performed with Scanning electron microscopy. The average coefficient of friction was 0.35 in samples containing micronized quartz and 0.34 in samples containing alumina. The wear rates in both samples were obtained below the maximum desired wear rate from the brake pads. The experiments produced brake pad performance values with the desired characteristics, and it was found that micronized quartz material may be employed as an alternative to alumina in the composition of brake pads.

Kepatuhan masyarakat terhadap protokol kesehatan masih sangat rendah. Faktor kendala yang dihadapi dalam penerapan protokol kesehatan di Wilayah Kabupaten Karo adalah: faktor ekonomi dalam memenuhi kebutuhan sehari-hari, kurangnya kesadaran masyarakat terutama kalangan muda yang tidak perduli dengan dampak pandemic karena merasa kuat, kebiasaan masyarakat untuk berkumpul sehingga sering menggelar pesta adat, ketidakpercayaan masyarakat terhadap informasi yang diberikan oleh pemerintah, serta adanya kebijakan new normal yang disalahartikan masyarakat bahwa mereka bisa lebih bebas di luar rumah. Disarankan perlu adanya sosialisasi yang lebih gencar kepada masyarakat agar lebih memahami bahaya penyebaran covid-19.

The Election Organiser Code of Ethics, in general, is a unified set of moral, ethical, and philosophical principles that serve as a guideline for Election Organisers' behaviour in the form of obligations or prohibitions, actions and/or remarks that are or are not appropriate for Election Organisers to make. The 2024 simultaneous election is a rather challenging election for election organisers, both the KPU and Bawaslu. Where it incorporates the Presidential and Vice- Presidential Elections, the DPR and DPD Elections, as well as the Provincial and Regency/City DPRDs. Of course, this adds complexity to the execution, especially with the recruitment of organisers in the middle of the stage. This article seeks to uncover probable ethical issues in the conduct of elections in Indonesia during the 2024 simultaneous elections. This article is based on library resources, secondary data owned by the author, or data obtained from third parties. Secondary data from available data relating to patterns of ethical infractions is used asthe foundation for analysis. Based on the information gathered, the general public believes that the potential issue of ethical violations in the conduct of elections in Indonesia in the 2024 simultaneous elections will not be far from the fundamental ethical principles of siding with one of the political forces, conflicts of interest, accepting bribes, and becoming opaque. Certain incidents, such as those concerning the KPU and Bawaslu standards of professionalism, violations of the principle of legal certainty, and violations of the principle of independence, are likely to be repeated in the future.

Pseudoaneurysm is defined as a vascular anomaly generated by the interruption of the arterial wall, which conditions accumulation and persistent confinement of blood. The incidence of pseudoaneurysm ranges between 0.2%-0.5% in diagnostic interventional techniques and up to 6% in therapeutic techniques, however, despite its low incidence, complications are potentially severe. We present 3 cases of pseudoaneurysm in the peripheral vasculature after percutaneous interventions, as well as the description of the diagnostic challenge and the assessment by the different imaging methods. This case report article shows the diagnostic approach through the different imaging methods, as well as a brief review of the subject with a focus on the role of the interventional radiologist.

Background: For neonates that survive preterm labor, neurological illness still ranks as one of the main causes of perinatal mortality. Researchers have hypothesized that maternal recto-vaginal colonization with group B Streptococcus and asymptomatic bacteriuria during pregnancy might be risk factors for preterm birth. This study is to determine whether there is any connection between preterm birth, asymptomatic bacteriuria, and maternal group B streptococcus colonization. Patients and Methods: From January 10 to September 6, 2020, Salah Al-Deen General Hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department conducted a clinical based case control research. In the research, group 1 consisted of (50) women who had preterm labor (24–36+6 weeks), whereas group 2 consisted of (50) women who had full-term pregnancies. A questionnaire, as well as a general and abdominal examination, were used to gather the data. By collecting a high vaginal swab and sending it for microbiological analysis, all patients were screened for genital colonization with Group B streptococcus. Urine cultures were used to check all patients for asymptomatic bacteriuria. Results: Preterm births most frequently occurred in women between the ages of 25 and 29 (46%). The majority of women who gave birth prematurely came from rural regions, 30 (60%), were moms who worked at home, 42 (84%) and just 8 (16%) were employed. Positive urine cultures were detected in 10 (20%) more preterm births than in 3 (6% of full-term laboring mothers). A 30% detection rate of Group B Streptococcus was found in premature labor. 11 (22%) of preterm-born women had positive vaginal swaps for Group B Streptococcus, which is much more than the 4 (8% of full-term-born women). Conclusions: E. coli made up the majority of the bacteria that were found, followed by Group B Streptococcus colonization. Women who had preterm deliveries had considerably more positive urine cultures for Group B Streptococcus than those who had full-term deliveries.

Качество жизни регионов Сибири: дифференциация и комплексная оценка
Authors: Лукьяненко Р.Ф.
Published: September 2023

Развитие восточных территорий было провозглашено одним из приоритетов государственной политики на весь XXI век, однако в Сибири сохраняется тенденция сокращения численности населения за счет отрицательного сальдо миграции. Фактором, провоцирующим отток населения, является высокая дифференциация российских регионов по качеству жизни. Для ее измерения предлагается индексный подход, позволяющий проводить одновременный анализ множества объективных и субъективных показателей, характеризующих качество жизни, и приоритезировать те направления, которые находятся в критическом состоянии. Анализ качества жизни в регионах Сибири показал, что только Новосибирская область и Красноярский край обладают достаточным потенциалом, чтобы стать опорой при «развороте России на восток».

Authors: Матризаев Б.Д.
Published: September 2023

В данной статье автором предпринята попытка исследовать модель полуэндогенного роста, чтобы показать, что природа инноваций сама по себе может порождать экономические циклы. Главной целью статьи является исследование авторского методологического подхода, способного охватить и достаточно раскрыть связь между инновациями и циклами, с описанием жизненного цикла технологии. Научная новизна данной статьи заключается в методологическом подходе, который дает новое представление об инновационных циклах, касающихся влияния и роли некоторых особенностей инновационной динамики, а также макроэкономической динамической модели экономического роста, возникающей в результате инновационной деятельности, которая имеет более сложную структуру, чем обычно его могут объяснить неоклассические модели экономического роста.
