Authors: - Charles Godfrey Mukundane , - Medard Twinamatsiko , - Clementia Neema Murembe , - Sedrack Atuhaire
Published: October 2024

Gendered power relations refer to the way males and females exercise influence at the household level in terms of decision-making, planning, resource utilization and executing family affairs from time to time(Agarwal, 1997; Manser & Brown, 1979). These relations define how females and males interrelate while taking steps to handle issues of managing and utilizing resources as well as handling overall family welfare at the household level(Bohren et al., 2024; Weeratunge et al., 2016). Drawing from the traditional African society perspective, gendered power relations are that aspect that defines family norms, roles and values (Heise et al., 2019; Ponthieux & Meurs, 2015). Gender power relations influence food production in many developing countries, as land which is a major factor of production is largely seen and viewed as a preserve of men to control(Croppenstedt et al., 2013; Rao, 2006). The situation is even more complex among female-headed households, where despite females being household heads, society seems not to trust them with the absolute power they deserve to manage and utilize resources for food production(Agarwal, 1997; Fonjong et al., 2013). This puts the female heads of these households in a more vulnerable state as well as their families (Yoosefi Lebni et al., 2020). In effect, their livelihoods are affected as manifested in terms of inadequate household income, food insecurity, health status, as well as compromised psychological well-being (Myers, 2020; Yoosefi Lebni et al., 2020).

Authors: - Mohammad Abdullah Khan
Published: October 2024

This research focuses on the challenges faced by the hijra community in urban India, touching upon issues such as economic marginalization, discrimination, and the point of intersection between religion and caste, all within the LGBTQ+ context. Hijras are individuals who are born biologically male, and identify as trans women, and live in small, secretive communities across South Asia, forming a very distinctive cultural group. This study draws on in-depth interviews with two members of the hijra community in Mumbai, India, offering a first-hand account of their struggles. The findings of this research revealed that many members of the hijra community confine themselves to low-income hustles such as begging, or sex work, due to rampant discrimination that exists in the heteronormative post-colonial South-Asian societies. This also contributes to their lack of access to healthcare, safe housing, protection from hate crimes, and a declining mental health on a community-wide level. Despite legal progress, many challenges related to identity recognition and humanizing the community persist. This introductory article thus advocates for various empowerment initiatives to facilitate a more inclusive and equitable environment for hijra individuals in urban India.

Implementation of CITES in Tanzania: Fairytale or Promising Journey? An Analysis of Legal Framework and Practice
Authors: Sina Frank E. C
Published: October 2024

Tanzania is rich in natural resources and home to one of Africa’s largest networks of wildlife-protected areas, including over 1,000 bird species and the world’s largest elephant population. As a dedicated wildlife conservation advocate, Tanzania ratified the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in 1979 and became a party in 1980. The Wildlife Conservation Act (WCA), enacted in 1974 and revised in 2009, along with CITES-specific regulations from 2005, guide Tanzania's conservation efforts. Using both descriptive and normative research legal approaches, this article expounds the Country’s implementation with CITES. It notes that, while the country generally complies with CITES obligations by designating authorities and regulating trade, challenges remain in maintaining trade records, reporting, and controlling illegal wildlife trade. Since 2015, political will to enforce wildlife laws has increased, but Tanzania still faces constraints in human and financial resources, limited capacity to investigate wildlife crimes, and lack of awareness among communities and law enforcement agencies. Additionally, weaknesses in Zanzibar’s legal framework hinder conservation effectiveness. Despite these issues, Tanzania has the potential to improve CITES enforcement by enhancing resource allocation, legal reforms, and regional collaboration. Community involvement in conservation efforts is key to achieving sustainable management of the country's rich natural heritage.
Comparison between Cascaded H-Bridge and Neutral Point Clamped Topologies in Medium-Voltage Systems
Authors: Adam Adil , Kacar Firat , Uzunoglu Cengiz Polat
Published: October 2024

Medium voltage motor drives (MVD) come in various topologies that allow designers to choose the best option for their application based on technical and economic considerations. The Neutral Point Clamped (NPC) and Cascade H-Bridge (CHB) are the most particular topologies that have come to the fore. CHB and NPC MVD's primary operating principles, switching stress, topological complexity, and harmonic distortion of the inverter output will be presented in this article, along with a brief review of suitable modules. Even though the number of parts in a cascaded inverter is lower than that of a neutral point-clamped inverter, it has been demonstrated that the stress on the switches in both types of inverters is the same and that the resulting output waveforms are nearly identical in terms of harmonic distortion. The neutral point clamped topology requires less secondary winding from the transformer, fewer voltage-balancing capacitors, the same quantity of switches, and extra clamping diodes. Benefits of NPC include high-power-density inverters, enhanced output quality, reduced number of components, reduced heat losses, increased efficiency, elimination of commonmode voltages and currents thanks to an isolation transformer, and a remote transformer that allows for a more adaptable footprint. Additionally, the NPC drive rectifier system (Transformer and diode H-bridges) has the advantage of more simplicity, ease of assembly, fewer connections, fewer space requirements, and an expensive isolation transformer. The MATLAB simulation for both topologies was carried out, with 3 phase motor 3.8kV, 150 KW motor parameters.

NATIONAL INTEGRATION OR SCHOOL SEGREGATION? IMPACTS OF ETHNOREGIONAL MECHANISMS OF PATRONAGE ON UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION IN UGANDA
Authors: Söderberg Martin , Berggren Vanja , Kumakech Edward
Published: October 2024

Uganda is an exceptionally diverse, postconflict, sub-Saharan African country with a large share of its population being school-aged children. The launch of universal primary education by the incumbent President Yoweri Museveni was essentially carried out under the banner of national integration and reconciliation. However, contrary to the pronounced ambition, the reform may neither have led to increased equity within the primary education domain, nor to unification among pupils and communities. The article highlights and scrutinizes the underlying factors that in practice have turned the implementation of universal primary education into a double-edged sword. The particular mode of decentralization and districtization in Uganda has entailed a tremendous variability in primary school performances and learning outcomes along economic, social, and geographical lines. At the same time, primary education has become a key integral of the ruling party’s patronage machinery, as well as a bargaining chip in relations between national and subnational elites. Secondary sources and data from, for instance, Uweso Uganda and Uganda National Examinations Board, are explored in accordance with a comprehensive framework of political analysis.

Authors: Razali Muhammad Hanif , Md Nor Khairul Affendy , Mohammed Sapardi Mohd Azan , Nordin Nor Hidayati Diyana , Kamaru Zaman Fadhlan Hafizhelmi , Zabidi Azlee
Published: October 2024

Flow-induced vibration occurs when the motion of fluids through a structure induces oscillations or vibrations in the structure. An effective flow-induced vibration energy harvester has substantial challenges due to the river's irregular velocity flows. It is not practicable to use one parameter for all velocities. This work presents the testing of a flow-induced vibrational energy harvester in laminar flow using two circular cylinders positioned in tandem within an open-channel flow. A CFD simulation using COMSOL Multiphysics was performed for the proposed parameter. A comprehensive simulation run at multiple Reynolds numbers with varying gap lengths between the bluff bodies is studied to determine the maximum power generated. Simulation results show that the optimal gap lengths for Re 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, and 160 are 8.5, 6.0, 3.0, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.5, respectively. These gap lengths result in power outputs of 0.0315 W, 2.616 W, 1.899 W, 0.6552 W, 0.5018 W, and 0.3782 W. By demonstrating the relationship between Reynolds number and gap length, this study provides important information for maximising the energy harvesting from flow-induced vibration (FIV).

Authors: Nussret Maryam , Alghazali Najm , Owaid Haider
Published: October 2024

One of the most important considerations that are interest to researchers on the stepped spillway in hydraulic structure is the location of the point at which the flow begins to transform into two phase-flow and the development of boundary layers. In this study, an unconventional rough surface was used (RCC materials), which has completely different properties from what is used in previous laboratory studies, which uses smooth surfaces in reality to represent the actual roughness of the surface. Benchmark mixes are evaluated as a reference standard concrete to determine the optimal combination proportions for RCC according to The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Standard. A laboratory study of different models enhanced by a mathematical model CFD with VOF technics to described the two- phase interaction to investigate the location of the inception point and compare the results with the proposed equations assumed by different researchers in this topic. The results obtained from the study showed a clear effect of surface roughness on the location of the inception point and the formation of the boundary layer for laboratory models. It’s clearly found that the two-phase flow starts with closer locations than it is for conventional models and the ratios vary (10 % - 20 %) according to the discharge values (where the effect of surface roughness is evident in the low discharges compared to the high discharges in which the boundary Lear effect begins to fade.

Infection prevention and control is a crucial element in providing a safe environment for dental clinics and reducing airborne infections risks during dental procedures. In response to the prevailing COVID-19 situations, the clinical space in the dental school was operated with ventilation strategies, increasing air exchanges and incorporating supply and return air arrangement based on seating positions. This study evaluated airflow patterns to examine personal exposure to airborne infection risk under these strategies. The three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics technique using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis was performed in 50 multi-units of the dental school of the university in Bangkok, Thailand. The results revealed substantial improvements in indoor ventilation. Improvement of airflow patterns and directions surpassed conventional design of the pre-existing building’s system and helped reduce airborne contaminant concentrations. The further discussion of occupant-based design in dental schools is needed to optimize ventilation systems and engineering controls concerning indoor airborne infections.

Trimaran and pentamaran are multihull types with an odd number of hulls, namely three and five hulls, generally consisting of one center hull and two or four side hulls smaller than the center hull, which can reduce ship resistance. The trimaran and pentamaran have a more complex phenomenon than the monohull, because of the interaction between the main hull and the side hull, which causes interference caused by changes in flow velocity, pressure changes, and wave interactions generated by each hull. The objective of this study is to analyze the resistance of trimaran and pentamaran NPL-4b models with transom-symmetrical hull and separation distances, specifically S/L ratios of 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4. Since a more limited base of experience exists for multihull ships, experimental or numerical modeling techniques are essential for designers. Numeric investigations were conducted using Numeca software, and experiments were performed in a towing tank. Both methods follow ITTC procedures. Furthermore, the numerical analysis with CFD simulation modifies the Navier-Stokes equation using the turbulence model k-ꞷ SST to generate the RANS equation so that unsteady fluid flow problems can be calculated. It can be implemented in predicting resistance in Froude numbers (Fr) 0.2 to 0.6 at the systematic series of trimaran and pentamaran hull shapes at the model scale. The simulation results were compared to experimental data to validate the resistance of the ships. Overall, good resistance was produced by the trimaran and pentamaran in the C configuration at an S/L ratio of 0.4 with a total resistance coefficient CT of 6.60 x 10-3 and 7.37 x 10-3, respectively. The two results are in good agreement, both methods have a discrepancy of 3.70 %. Fluctuations influence the resistance in the wetted surface area (WSA), wave interactions between hulls, ship velocity, and wave propagation in the aft hull.

The COVID-19 pandemic has become a global health issue and has had a major impact on education. Distance learning was implemented during COVID-19 pandemic. Concerns towards the negative impact of online learning such as lack of physical interaction between lecturers and students give rise on the need to study the impact of such a method towards student’s performance and student’s perception in the quality of teaching. This paper aims to determine whether the subject’s mean marks and lecturer’s evaluation (e-PPP) marks differs significantly between the online and face to face teaching method. From the case study of subjects offered by Mathematical Sciences Department in UTM, the results show that there is no correlation between the subject’s mean marks and lecturer’s evaluation marks. Findings from ANOVA show that both marks are not significantly different between the online and face to face of teaching methods. This may indicate the adaptability and readiness from students to experience and embrace the distance learning via online teaching.
Consumer behavioural model and the mediating role of branding concept on consumer willingness to purchase electronics products

This study ascertained the impact of the consumer behavioural model and the mediating role of the branding concept on consumer willingness to purchase a Samsung family brand in South Africa. This objective is motivated by the highly competitive and dynamic nature of the electronics market, where various factors influence consumers in their decision-making processes. Consequently, additional conceptual variables may also affect consumers' willingness to purchase a Samsung family brand. To achieve the study's objective, a quantitative research method was employed, involving data collection from 150 students at a university in Mthatha. Inferential statistical analysis was conducted through structural equation modelling to elucidate the relationships between variables, utilising SmartPLS and SPSS software as analytical tools. The findings of this study revealed a positive and significant impact of individual factors and branding concepts on consumer willingness to purchase the Samsung family brand. In contrast, social factors and the purchase situation exhibited a positive impact but were deemed insignificant regarding consumer willingness to purchase the brand. Therefore, it is established that, in addition to the positive impact of the consumer behavioural model on consumer willingness to purchase a Samsung family brand, the branding concept also plays a mediating role in this willingness. This study recommends that dealers and marketers of the Samsung family brand place greater emphasis on consumer-valued aspects of both social factors and the purchasing situation, with a particular focus on individual factors and the branding concept, to attract more consumers, particularly rural university students in South Africa.

Objective: Bleeding, the most common life-threatening complication of pelvic trauma occurs due to injuries of pelvic arterial and venous structures and bone fractures. The outcomes of patients can be improved by a timely performed angioembolisation (AE). Hybrid Emergency Service System (HERS) has been recently introduced a novel approach which provides trauma resuscitation room equipped with computerized tomography, fluoroscopy, and an operating room, thus effects the outcomes of trauma patients.
Cases: We presented two pelvic traumas and in both cases with the most common life-threatening complication was bleeding. In both cases, whole-body computed tomography (WBCT), endovascular procedures (Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA), transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE)), and injury control surgery can be simultaneously performed without the need to transport a patient to an operating room which is called HERS resuscitation. Both patients were discharged and remained free of any medical problem at long-term (12 months) follow-up.
Conclusion: Considering the recently introduced HERS system in patient management and integrating it into emergency services will be extremely useful in the management of trauma and trauma-induced bleeding.
