Konya Mevlânâ Külliyesi’nin Celâlîye Evkâfı ve Tarihî Gelişim Süreci
Authors: Yurtoğlu Gökhan
Published: April 2024

Mevlânâ Celâleddîn-i Rûmî, sultanlar, ricâl ve ulemâ ile yakın ilişkiler kurarak tasavvufî düşüncesinin geniş kitleler tarafından kabul edilmesini sağlamıştır. Mevlânâ’dan sonra postnişîn olan Çelebi Efendiler de Mevlânâ’dan miras aldıkları söz konusu tasavvufî düşünceyi yaymaya çalışmışlardır. Bu cümleden olarak Mevlevî Tarikatı, Mevlânâ Celâleddîn-i Rûmî’nin tasavvufî düşüncesi gözetilerek Mevlânâoğulları ve müritleri tarafından onun türbesi (âsitâne, hankâh) merkeze alınarak kurulup geliştirilmiştir. Böylece Mevlevîlik, Konya Âsitânesi’nden Anadolu’da kurulan birçok mevlevîhâne yoluyla geniş bir coğrafyaya yayılmıştır. Bu durum, tamamen Çelebi Efendilerin kontrolünde bulunan, zamanla Celâlîye Evkâfı olarak adlandırılan ve müstesnâ bir idare ile yönetilen zengin bir iktisadi kaynağın ortaya çıkmasına sebep olmuştur. Celâlîye Evkâfı'nın zenginleşmesi ve daha büyük bir ekonomik kaynağa dönüşmesi Osmanlı Devleti'nin egemenliği altında olmuştur. Mevlânâoğullarının Anadolu Selçuklu Devleti ve Karamanoğulları Beyliği dönemlerinde elde ettiği çeşitli vakıflar ve imtiyazlar Osmanlı Devleti'nde de muhafaza edilmiştir. Bu durum evkâf defterlerindeki kayıtlardan da takip edilebilmektedir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin hâkimiyeti altında Konya Mevlânâ Külliyesi’ne olan ilgi yüzyıllar boyunca artarak devam etmiştir. Bu bağlamda Külliye’nin söz konusu vakıflarına yeni vakıflar ve imtiyazlar eklenerek Celâlîye Evkâfı eizze vakıflarından biri hâline dönüşmüştür. Celâlîye Evkâfı, merkezî otorite ve Mevlânâoğulları arasındaki kesişim noktasını oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Celâlîye Evkâfı’nın tarihî gelişim süreci arşiv kaynakları, kronikler ve telif tetkik eserler dikkate alınarak ele alınmıştır.
Çevresel Kuznets Eğrisi Hipotezi Geçerli Mi? AB Ülkelerinden Kanıtlar
Authors: Koçak Elif
Published: April 2024

Çevre kirliliği ve küresel ısınma tüm dünyanın ortak gündem başlıkları arasında yer almaktadır. Küresel ısınmanın en öncül tetikleyicisi konumunda ise karbondioksit (CO2) emisyonu bulunmaktadır. Büyük ölçüde yenilenemeyen enerji kaynaklarının kullanımına dayalı olarak gerçekleştirilen ekonomik kalkınma ve sanayileşme faaliyetleri CO2 emisyonunun artmasına neden olmaktadır. Fosil yakıtlar çevre kirliliğine neden olmasına rağmen maliyetlerinin daha düşük olmasından ötürü enerji yoğun sektörler tarafından kullanılmakta ve ekonomik büyümenin sağlanmasından taviz verilmemektedir. Ancak bazı araştırmacılar söz konusu bu durumun ekonomik büyümenin ilk aşamaları için geçerli olduğunu ve kişi başına düşen gelirin artmasıyla birlikte çevrede iyileşme meydana geleceğini Çevresel Kuznets Eğrisi (EKC) hipotezi aracılığıyla açıklamaktadırlar. EKC hipotezi ekonomik büyümenin ilk aşamalarında çevresel bozulmanın arttığını ancak ekonomik büyümenin ilerleyen aşamalarında ölçek, kompozisyon ve teknik etkiler sayesinde çevresel bozulmanın azalacağını öne sürmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı EKC hipotezinin geçerli olup olmadığını incelemektir. Bu bağlamda 17 AB ülkesinin (Almanya, Belçika, Avusturya, Danimarka, Bulgaristan, İrlanda, Çekya, Finlandiya, Fransa, İtalya, Lüksemburg, Hollanda, Malta, Portekiz, Romanya, Yunanistan ve İspanya) 1993-2018 yılları arası baz alınarak elde edilen veriler ikinci nesil panel veri teknikleriyle analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre ekonomik büyümenin ilk aşamalarında çevre kirliliği artarken, ekonomik büyümenin ilerleyen aşamalarında çevre kirliliğinin azaldığı tespit edilerek EKC hipotezi doğrulanmıştır. Ayrıca söz konusu ülkelerin EKC dönüm noktası hesaplanmıştır. Buna göre EKC dönüm noktasına ulaşan ülkeler Almanya, İrlanda, Belçika, Danimarka, Finlandiya, Avusturya, Fransa, Lüksemburg ve Hollanda olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

The growing severity of global climate change increases public environmental awareness. As a result, green financing has become a prospective area of financial services that attracts attention of investors, policymakers, and other stakeholders. Green financing means using financial tools and mechanisms to provide financial support for a green and low-carbon economy, as well as to promote environmental protection, sustainable development, and resource efficiency. Green finance not only introduces social capital into the green industry and the green economy, but also optimizes the allocation of social resources and creates new points of economic growth. This article reviews the current state of green financing in China. The authors analyzed the related development processes, defined the key challenges, and proposed some policy ecommendations.
Commercial Strategizing of Innovations in Russia’s as Part of Data Economy
Authors: Tishchenko Elena , Slavyantsev Maksim , Voytenko Ivan
Published: April 2024

Professor A.G. Aganbegyan defines a new transport and logistics infrastructure as a key factor of economic growth, welfare, and transformation of Russia’s socio-economic system. This new infrastructure should include two-way highways, high-speed railways, regional airports, and major logistics centers in key transport hubs. Unfortunately, such projects have a very long payback cycle that may last up to 20–25 years. Moreover, the investments may be as high as 3 trillion rubles annually. As a result, transport and logistics suppliers alone cannot support such a large-scale initiative. Domestic logistics is currently going through all the stages from 1PL to 5PL, which places very high requirements on the multimodality of transport and logistics in physical infrastructure, software, and hardware. These processes encourage research cooperation between industries aimed at developing novel interoperable R&D solutions. Russian transport and logistics infrastructure depends heavily on the railway industry: its main operational task is to maintain passenger and cargo traffic, as well as to provide safety. Under the current sanctions, Russian railroads face the challenge of developing and scaling advanced scientific and technical reserves. Technological independence relies on end-to-end production technologies, e.g., artificial intelligence algorithms, digital twins, etc., which impose requirements on data interoperability. This article describes the potential that domestic railway enterprises have for improving commercialization of innovations and technology transfer. The authors used the theory of strategy and the methodology of strategizing developed by Professor V.L. Kvint to design several recommendations on how railroad companies may increase their economic motivation to overcome various barriers.
Groundwork for Strategizing Urban Competitiveness
Authors: Dyadik Vladimir
Published: April 2024

Strategic urbanization needs new theoretical and methodological tools at the current stage of Russia’s territorial development. This article identifies prerequisites for a new approach to urban development based on strategizing the urban competitiveness. Using the general theory of strategy and the methodology of strategizing developed by Professor V.L. Kvint, the author studied the socio-economic phenomenon of urban competitiveness. The review of scientific publications involved a narrative bibliographic analysis, which made it possible to determine and classify the key factors of urban competitiveness. By strategizing the urban competitiveness, municipal authorities obtain scientifically based theoretical and methodological foundations for solving various issues of urban development. The review also highlighted urban competitiveness as a socio-economic phenomenon and revealed four groups of factors, i.e., social, economic, infrastructural, and institutional. The main prerequisites for strategizing the urban competitiveness should rely on a comprehensive analysis and forecast of endogenous and exogenous factors, while taking into account the dichotomy of the subject to be strategized. The main directions of strategizing should depend on the system of unique competitive advantages of the urban settlement in question. The approach and the basic strategizing principles introduced in this article do not complete urban competitiveness as a system: the matter needs further methodological research. However, the groundwork can be independently used to strategize urban development.

Authors: Dubodelov Artem
Published: April 2024

The author applied the methods of Professor L.V. Kvint’s scientific school of strategizing to the construction industry in the Russian Federation. Strategic threat is a set of adverse conditions and factors that affect the strategic results. This term belongs to the first stage of strategizing which analyzes external and internal environment and assesses new opportunities and threats. The research featured various strategizing issues in the domestic construction industry, in particular, those that increase labor performance. The factors that reduce labor productivity were divided into several groups as “an unstable contractor”, “an unstable team”, and “an unstable worker”. The article describes strategic threats to the development of the construction industry and introduces some ideas on how to strategize labor performance, e.g., by developing and implementing social and technological innovations. In this regard, the priority tasks should include the following measures. The best workers should be encouraged to develop their professional skills and paid as much as qualified engineers. Robotic complexes and technical systems are to replace heavy physical labor. Innovative construction technologies and products should cover a wide range of construction types.
Strategic Role of Moscow’s Innovation Clusters in Progressive Megalopolis Transport Infrastructure
Authors: Kalinin Vladimir
Published: April 2024

The pace of metropolitan life is growing higher and higher. To keep up with it, Moscow residents have to abandon cars and public transport in favor of personal mobility devices, e.g., electric scooters. As a result, the state authorities are developing a unified strategy for urban public transport that would include personal mobility devices and their rent. An effective strategy should integrate all innovative public transport vehicles into a single urban transport system. Technopolis is a special economic zone of innovation clusters in Moscow that offers conditions for design and production of innovative electric individual mobility devices. New-generation vehicles that meet the needs of metropolitan residents will become a key strategic vector in the development of Moscow’s transport system. The key strategic goals are to improve the quality of urban life and to ensure the national technological sovereignty. Modernization and consistent implementation of production facilities can stimulate innovative technologies in the transport sector and its progressive transformation nationwide. Moscow’s innovation clusters produce innovative technologies, test them, and spread the most effective innovations onto all regions.

Fijital sport is a new word in the development of physical culture, fijital is on the border between cybersports and traditional sports. This type of sport has been developing lightning fast in the last few years, large nationwide events have already been held, where hundreds of thousands of people watch athletes in the new field. The development of fijtal-sports in the country's universities, its timely integration helps motivate students to engage in physical education, especially cyber athletes, whose activities are closely associated with hypodynamia. In order to address the issue of integrating fijital sport into the framework of the educational program, it is necessary to have feedback from the representatives of the student community, for this purpose in this paper it was decided to conduct a survey among students to determine the student point of view on fijital sport. The key points of integration of this sport into practice students consider: 1) sufficient modern equipment, which unmistakably provides an opportunity for athletes to train to perform at any events - 96% of students, consider this a primary issue, 2) 84% of students supported the idea of a systematic unified approach to integration, 3) 78% were in favor of the need for regular classes, trainings, 4) in achieving the goal the most important point, according to 72% of students, is the active position of the student community. Thus, the program of integration of fijital-sport will be built on a number of key aspects highlighted by students - future sportsmen.

The Acceptability and Impact of a Video on Compassion Focused Therapy as a Psycho-Educative Tool to Deepen Awareness around Voice-Hearing
Authors: Hickey Tara , Strohmaier Sarah , Fossey Ellie , Heriot-Maitland Charlie
Published: April 2024

In the compassion focused therapy (CFT) model of voice-hearing, a distressing relationship with voices is thought to be influenced by evolved threat-protection patterns, which are activated and attuned by socially threatening experiences, such as being harmed by others, as well being shamed, stigmatised, invalidated, and excluded. Therefore, the CFT approach is particularly interested in the role of voice-hearers’ relationships with others and self, as well as their social context of family/friends, professionals/services, and the wider community. This article reports on the impact of a 5-minute film, ‘Compassion for Voices’, which aimed to engage a general public audience with the compassionate approach to relating with voices, with potential as a therapeutic, educational, and de-stigmatising tool. One hundred and thirty-seven people responded to an anonymous online public feedback survey asking about their perceived impact of this film, amongst whom were 20 voice-hearers, 30 family/friends of voice-hearers, and 87 who work with voice-hearers. Quantitative data were gathered from responders’ perceived impact ratings (yes/no) in several different domains, and qualitative feedback data were analysed using content analysis by an independent research team. Over 98% of total responders thought the film has, or could potentially have, an impact on people’s health and welfare, and within the subsamples of both family/friends and the people who directly work with voice-hearers, this was 100%. The qualitative data revealed main impact themes around knowledge and education, changes of attitudes or approaches to voice-hearing, and validation of people’s lived experience. Although there are limitations to the online survey method, and therefore caution around what conclusions can be drawn, this study demonstrated a clear value and perceived impact among the sample who responded. This offers support for the use of video tools for social and community interventions, which is very much in keeping with the theoretically- and empirically- supported aims of CFT.
A Comprehensive Youth Diabetes Epidemiological Data Set and Web Portal: Resource Development and Case Studies
Authors: McDonough Catherine , Li Yan Chak , Vangeepuram Nita , Liu Bian , Pandey Gaurav
Published: April 2024

Background

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and pre–diabetes mellitus (pre-DM) has been increasing among youth in recent decades in the United States, prompting an urgent need for understanding and identifying their associated risk factors. Such efforts, however, have been hindered by the lack of easily accessible youth pre-DM/DM data.

Objective

We aimed to first build a high-quality, comprehensive epidemiological data set focused on youth pre-DM/DM. Subsequently, we aimed to make these data accessible by creating a user-friendly web portal to share them and the corresponding codes. Through this, we hope to address this significant gap and facilitate youth pre-DM/DM research.

Methods

Building on data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018, we cleaned and harmonized hundreds of variables relevant to pre-DM/DM (fasting plasma glucose level ≥100 mg/dL or glycated hemoglobin  ≥5.7%) for youth aged 12-19 years (N=15,149). We identified individual factors associated with pre-DM/DM risk using bivariate statistical analyses and predicted pre-DM/DM status using our Ensemble Integration (EI) framework for multidomain machine learning. We then developed a user-friendly web portal named Prediabetes/diabetes in youth Online Dashboard (POND) to share the data and codes.

Results

We extracted 95 variables potentially relevant to pre-DM/DM risk organized into 4 domains (sociodemographic, health status, diet, and other lifestyle behaviors). The bivariate analyses identified 27 significant correlates of pre-DM/DM (P<.001, Bonferroni adjusted), including race or ethnicity, health insurance, BMI, added sugar intake, and screen time. Among these factors, 16 factors were also identified based on the EI methodology (Fisher P of overlap=7.06×10-6). In addition to those, the EI approach identified 11 additional predictive variables, including some known (eg, meat and fruit intake and family income) and less recognized factors (eg, number of rooms in homes). The factors identified in both analyses spanned across all 4 of the domains mentioned. These data and results, as well as other exploratory tools, can be accessed on POND.

Conclusions

Using NHANES data, we built one of the largest public epidemiological data sets for studying youth pre-DM/DM and identified potential risk factors using complementary analytical approaches. Our results align with the multifactorial nature of pre-DM/DM with correlates across several domains. Also, our data-sharing platform, POND, facilitates a wide range of applications to inform future youth pre-DM/DM studies.
Exploring Anesthesia Provider Preferences for Precision Feedback: Preference Elicitation Study
Authors: Landis-Lewis Zach , Andrews Chris A , Gross Colin A , Friedman Charles P , Shah Nirav J
Published: April 2024

Background

Health care professionals must learn continuously as a core part of their work. As the rate of knowledge production in biomedicine increases, better support for health care professionals’ continuous learning is needed. In health systems, feedback is pervasive and is widely considered to be essential for learning that drives improvement. Clinical quality dashboards are one widely deployed approach to delivering feedback, but engagement with these systems is commonly low, reflecting a limited understanding of how to improve the effectiveness of feedback about health care. When coaches and facilitators deliver feedback for improving performance, they aim to be responsive to the recipient’s motivations, information needs, and preferences. However, such functionality is largely missing from dashboards and feedback reports. Precision feedback is the delivery of high-value, motivating performance information that is prioritized based on its motivational potential for a specific recipient, including their needs and preferences. Anesthesia care offers a clinical domain with high-quality performance data and an abundance of evidence-based quality metrics.

Objective

The objective of this study is to explore anesthesia provider preferences for precision feedback.

Methods

We developed a test set of precision feedback messages with balanced characteristics across 4 performance scenarios. We created an experimental design to expose participants to contrasting message versions. We recruited anesthesia providers and elicited their preferences through analysis of the content of preferred messages. Participants additionally rated their perceived benefit of preferred messages to clinical practice on a 5-point Likert scale.

Results

We elicited preferences and feedback message benefit ratings from 35 participants. Preferences were diverse across participants but largely consistent within participants. Participants’ preferences were consistent for message temporality (α=.85) and display format (α=.80). Ratings of participants’ perceived benefit to clinical practice of preferred messages were high (mean rating 4.27, SD 0.77).

Conclusions

Health care professionals exhibited diverse yet internally consistent preferences for precision feedback across a set of performance scenarios, while also giving messages high ratings of perceived benefit. A “one-size-fits-most approach” to performance feedback delivery would not appear to satisfy these preferences. Precision feedback systems may hold potential to improve support for health care professionals’ continuous learning by accommodating feedback preferences.

Jamu is one of Indonesia's most consumed traditional medicines. The government has clearly stated that traditional medicines are strictly prohibited from containing chemicals, both isolated and synthetic. Diclofenac sodium is one of the Non-Steroid Anti Inflammation Drug (NSAID) class drugs that have an effect as a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory, which is also often misused in traditional medicine preparations. The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a chemical content of diclofenac sodium contained in the preparation of jamu pegal linu circulating in Banjarmasin using thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and to determine whether the validation of the method using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer meets the established requirements. The results of qualitative analysis using thin-layer chromatography showed that 4 out of 7 samples identified positively contained diclofenac sodium with an Rf value of 0.825. The results of quantitative testing using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer showed the acquisition of an r-value of 0.9996, %RSD of 0.97%, % recovery of 95.28%, 92.82%, and 95.48% for the addition of standard solutions of 10 ppm, 15 ppm, and 20 ppm, as well as LOD & LOQ values of 1.1625 ppm and 3.8750 ppm. Based on the analysis results, it can be stated that 4 out of 7 samples of jamu pegal linu circulating in the Banjarmasin area are positive for diclofenac sodium with levels ranging from 10.257 - 18.465 mg/g (1.026% - 1.846%).

Malaria parasites, Plasmodium spp, can develop resistance to anti-malarial drugs. Hence, potential alternative therapeutic agents should be explored. This research aimed to investigate the anti-malarial effect of a combination of Carica papaya and Moringa oleifera leaf extract. Peter’s test performed on Balb/c mice to investigate the malarial parasite growth inhibition. Mice were infected with Plasmodium berghei by intraperitoneal injection to provoke rodent malaria. After infection, we grouped every 5-6 mice into different treatment groups, including a negative control group, a positive control group treated with artesunate, a moringa group, a papaya group, and a combination therapy group. Treatments were initiated 3 hours after infection (day 0) and continued every day until day 3. On day 4, we examined a thin smear of the tail vein blood for parasitemia to calculate the suppression rate. The result shows that the parasite suppression rate of C. papaya leaf extract (CPLE) is 15.02 % (percent parasitemia 4.56±1.96), the suppression rate of M. oleifera leaf extract (MOLE) is 17.32% (percent parasitemia 4.44±1.78) and that of the combination extract (CE) is 28.73% (percent parasitemia 3.82±1.48).  In conclusion, there is a synergism of the anti-malarial effect of the combined leaf extract of C. papaya and M. oleifera.

Published: April 2024

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disorder of carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism caused by impaired insulin secretion, insulin action, or both characterized by hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemic condition is associated with inflammation process leading to complications. Food supplements play an important role in controlling protein metabolism and have anti-inflammatory properties such as Channa micropeltes (CM). This study aimed to analyze the effect of CM extract on the levels of molecular markers Nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-κB) and Tumor Necrosis Factor alfa (TNF-α) in normal and diabetic rats. The experimental design of this investigation was a post-test-only control group design and the samples were the diabetic model group given CM extract at 16 mL/kgBB dose, and negative control group for 14 days, respectively. Serum concentrations of    NF-κB and TNF-α were measured by ELISA. DM-CM group showed decreasing levels of NF-κB. TNF- α was detected with the lowest level in the N-CM group. The levels of TNF- α declined close to normal levels in the DM-CM group. Hence, the conclusion was the CM at a dose of 16 mL/kg BW for 14 days in Wistar rats can reduce Nf-κB and TNF-α in groups of normal and diabetic rats.

Published: April 2024

This study aimed to investigate the effects of Acioa barteri extract (ABE) on hepatocellular enzyme activity, hepatic function, and antioxidant stress indices in diabetic rats induced with alloxan. The antidiabetic effect of ABE was evaluated in six experimental groups: normal controls, diabetics untreated, diabetics treated with 200mg/kg, 400mg/kg, or 800 mg/kg ABE, and diabetics treated with 3 mg/kg Glibenclamide. ABE was orally administered to induce diabetes, and alloxan-monohydrate was intraperitoneally administered. Diabetic untreated rats exhibited significantly elevated levels of alkaline phosphatase, aspartate, and alanine transaminase activities, as well as higher concentrations of total bilirubin, conjugated bilirubin, and malondialdehyde. They also showed decreased levels of total protein, albumin, globulin, and protein-bound iodine, along with reduced antioxidant enzyme activity. In contrast, diabetic rats administered ABE demonstrated reduced hepatocellular enzyme activity and improved hepatic function. These rats exhibited increased levels of total protein, globulin, and albumin, as well as higher levels of glutathione, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase activities, compared to diabetic untreated rats. The findings suggest that ABE may help prevent oxidative stress and improve hepatic functions in diabetic rats. ABE treatment led to decreased hepatocellular enzyme activity and improved hepatic function, along with increased antioxidant enzyme activities. These results highlight the potential of ABE as a therapeutic option for diabetes-induced liver dysfunction. Further research is warranted to explore its mechanisms of action and potential clinical applications.

Published: April 2024

During the Second World War, in the Sino-Japanese battlefield where China resisted Japanese invasion, the importance of the militia publicity and education for the construction of the base area was self-evident. It not only played an important role in the battles, but also encouraged members to actively participate in promotional activities, using leaflets, slogans, broadcasts and other media to convey the importance and necessity of the war of resistance to the public, which stimulated the public’s enthusiasm and determination to resist the Japanese invasion. At the same time, militia also enhanced publicity and education through the organization of classes, lectures and other forms of activities, improving the public’s political awareness and sense of resistance. Because of their close relationship with the public, the militia were able to better carry out the functions publicity and education, which had an important impact on the cultural construction of the base areas behind enemy lines.
Parental Rearing and Conflict Resolution among College Freshmen Students
Authors: Sun Hao
Published: April 2024

The initial foray into college life is a significant stress test of a young adult's ability to resolve conflicts, which is a critical life skill that impacts all facets of their burgeoning independence. As they confront these challenges, the legacy of their parental rearing becomes a potent influence on their capacity to manage conflicts. Moreover, the way students handle disputes and stressors can shape their entire college experience, with ineffective conflict resolution strategies being linked to a host of adjustment difficulties. Despite the central role of conflict resolution in student development, there remains a gap in understanding the precise mechanisms through which parental rearing styles imprint these skills. Addressing this gap is not merely of academic interest but carries substantial practical implications. It is crucial to delve into the intricacies of how early family dynamics shape conflict resolution strategies in college freshmen.

Wheat is the most important food grain among the cereal grain crops. In India, wheat demand increases because of an increase in population and diet changes among the people.and wheat occupies 2nd place over the rice. The research was conducted with the aim of checking out the suitable row proportion while wheat was intercropped with mustard under different organic manures and biofertilizers. The field experiment was conducted at the farm of Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, on wheat (Triticum aestivum.L) intercropped with mustard (Brassica junecea.L) during the rabi season in the years 2020–2021. A split plot block design was used with three row proportions of wheat + mustard intercropping (3:1) (2:2) and sole wheat (the main crop),and four treatments of different manures and biofertilizers, and three replications. Based on the complete analysis of the experimental results, it is concluded. that different treatments affected the wheat + mustard intercropping, there was a significant increase in growth parameters, yield attributes, and yield. Among the geometries, G1 (sole wheat) showed good results in biological, economical, straw yield, and harvest index in M4 (vermicompost 5 t/ha + Azospirillum + PSB) in all geometries. There is no significant increase in harvest index in all geometries and treatments. Higher gross returns were absorbed in (3:1) wheat + mustard intercropping in the treatment (G3M4 Vermicompost 5t/ha + PSB + Azospirillum), and the highest net returns were increased was observed in Geometry 2 (2:2 wheat + mustard) of treatment no:3 (M3 poultry manure 5t/ha + PSB + Azospirillum). The highest benefit-cost ratio (2.27) was observed in Geometry 2 (2:2 wheat + mustard intercropping) of treatment M3 (poultry manure + azospirillum + psb)).Hence, research outcomes (2:2) of wheat + mustard intercropping by applying M3 poultry manure along with biofertilizers are beneficial to farmers.

Published: April 2024

Abstract:In many different fields, there is a great need to save the information contained in printed or written documents or ima ges to the computer for later use. An easy way to save the information in these printed documents to your computer is to scan the document and save it as an image file. But it would be very difficult to read or query the text or other information in this image f ile to reuse this data. Therefore, there needs to be a technology that automatically collects and stores information (especially text ) from image files. Optical character recognition is a field of research that seeks to create computer systems that can extract and process text from images. The purpose of OCR is to alter or convert any text or document containing text (such as handwritten, p rinted, or scanned images) into a digital format that can be converted to be processed for greater depth and processing. OCR thu s enables machines to recognize text in these documents. There are some important issues that need to be recognized and address ed in order for automation to be implemented successfully. Characterization of the alphabet and the quality of characters in the document are just some of the recent challenges. Due to these problems, the computer may not recognize characters correctly. In this article, we examine OCR in four different ways. First, we provide detailed information about the difficulties that may arise during OCR. Secondly, we examine the general stages of OCR systems such as preprocessing, segmentation, normalization, feat ure extraction, classification and post
Solar Powered QuadCopter Drone
Authors: Sharma Dr. Vivek
Published: April 2024

Abstract: Drones are a common sight today and are being used in a wide range of applications. Fromselfies to pesticide spraying to military surveillance. Well the problem with surveillance monitoring isthat many applications require long time surveillance. Drones do provide a good view for surveillancemonitoring but have a huge drawback. This is the drone battery life. The major fear a drone pilot faces insurveillance is that the battery may run out and drone may land on a tree or building or some inaccessiblearea from where it cannot be retrieved and thus cannot be charged. This is also the case in military surveillance, the possibility of battery life running out and drone being inaccessible creates limitationsfor drone pilots during surveillance/monitoring. Well we here develop a drone with solution to these problems using solar power to constantly charge the drone to increase its flight time as well as the ability to land the drone anywhere and automatically its battery remotely to take flight later. This will lead to improved flight time as well as automatic battery charging of drones in inaccessible areas so that it cantake off from the same spot on charging. The drone is a quad rotor drone that makes use of 4 x highpowered drone motors with propellers to provide required lift to the drone. The drone body is integratedwith solar panels for high efficiency charging during idle time as well as during flight time for improved flight times. The drone is integrated with a wifi camera that can be monitored over an android smartphone using wifi connection. It makes use of a rc remote controller to receive control commands for theuser. The drone onboard rc receiver is used to receive control commands from the user and operate dronemotors to achieve desired flight.
