Published: September 2024

Este estudio se enfoca en la evaluación multicriterio para determinar áreas óptimas de expansión urbana en el cantón Naranjito, utilizando Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG). Se identificaron zonas de restricción, como áreas consolidadas y cercanas a plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales, donde la expansión urbana no es viable. A partir de capas que representan factores clave como hospitales, centros educativos, destacamentos policiales, ríos y vías, se desarrolló un modelo geoespacial detallado. La metodología de Saaty (EMC) fue empleada para ponderar estas variables, destacando la importancia relativa de cada una en la toma de decisiones. Se priorizaron factores de mayor relevancia como la proximidad a hospitales y destacamentos policiales, mientras que otros como la cobertura vegetal y la pendiente del suelo se consideraron de menor impacto debido a su poca influencia en la expansión urbana en esta área. El análisis de consistencia confirmó la coherencia en la ponderación de los criterios. Los resultados del modelado SIG indicaron que las zonas más adecuadas para el crecimiento urbano están cercanas a áreas ya urbanizadas, lo que favorece el aprovechamiento de la infraestructura existente. Este enfoque integral permite una planificación urbana más eficiente y sustentable, adaptada a las características específicas del territorio de Naranjito.

Batteries and DC Shore Charging for High-Speed Electric Vessels
Authors: Ayers William Norris
Published: September 2024

Marine lithium-ion batteries have enabled zero emission plug-in operations. However, most initial projects involve car ferries with short repetitive routes, larger machinery spaces to locate batteries and longer loading periods for slower recharging. High-speed passenger craft consume significantly more power with typically shorter docking times. This paper will explore their recent history. An examination of lithium-ion technologies will highlight areas for improvement and safety design options. The paper will then tackle DC rapid charging. Charging transformers and power converters can be placed shoreside representing a significant vessel weight savings. Finally, the development of DC charging standards trying to catch up to AC ones will be explored.

Published: September 2024

Samples of soil irrigated with three types of water: Fresh water (F), wastewater (W), fresh water and wastewater (F1W1, alternative irrigation) were collected at two depths (0-15 cm and 15-30 cm) for two consecutive years. The bulk density, true density, soil total porosity, electrical conductivity, pH, percentage of organic matter, and concentration of phosphorus and potassium were measured. In addition, the length and circumference of paulownia tree trunk were measured, and the protein content of dry and green leaves was estimated. The results showed the differences in the apparent density values, as wastewater irrigation decreases the apparent density and increased the soil total porosity. The results also indicated that there were significant differences in the soil PH between the three treatments, as treated water irrigation decreased the pH and insignificantly increased the soil electrical conductivity. However, there were significant differences when irrigating with wastewater, as the electrical conductivity and organic matter content increased in the soil irrigated with wastewater compared to soil irrigated with fresh water at two depths (0-15cm and 15-30cm). Moreover, the concentrations of phosphorus and potassium increased in the soil irrigated with wastewater and treated water compared to fresh water. Furthermore, there were significant differences in the height of paulownia tree and its trunk circumference when irrigating with treated water compared to wastewater and fresh water. As for the protein content in paulownia leaves, it was observed that there were significant differences when irrigating with wastewater compared to treated water and fresh water. There was high protein content in the dry and green leaves when irrigating with the three types of water, but the highest protein content was for wastewater irrigation.

Published: September 2024

Der aktuelle Entwurf für den Bundeshaushalt 2025 – als „in Zahlen gegossenes Regierungsprogramm“ – bietet Anlass, das eher nüchterne Zahlenwerk einer eingehenden verfassungsrechtlichen Prüfung zu unterziehen. Denn die Folgen eines verfassungswidrigen Haushalts können kaum überschätzt werden, wie das Haushaltsurteil des Bundesverfassungsgerichts vom 15. November 2023 eindrucksvoll zeigte. Insbesondere die Höhe der im Entwurf ausgebrachten Globalansätze ist verfassungsrechtlich fragwürdig. Es liegt nahe, dass damit der Haushaltsgrundsatz der Klarheit und Wahrheit verletzt wird.
Quantifying coliform bacteria in ground beef to evaluate food safety guidelines
Authors: Laska Mary , Bonner Riley , Johnson Sydney
Published: September 2024

Ground beef, while common in the American diet, can cause many bacterial-related illnesses, including Escherichia coli infection and death, when eaten undercooked. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends cooking ground beef to well-done, 160°F, to prevent foodborne illness. However, only around 46% of American adults prefer their burgers well-done or medium-well, so many Americans are at risk. We tested ground beef samples to determine whether the CDC’s recommendations are necessary, or merely a precaution, by quantifying the amount of coliform bacteria, an indicator organism that is correlated to individual species of disease-causing bacteria. Additionally, we tested if lower ground beef prices were an indicator of higher coliform contamination. We hypothesized that rare beef would have more coliform bacteria than well-done, and that more expensive beef would have less coliform bacteria. We prepared four brands of ground beef at three temperatures (raw, 130°F, 160°F). We homogenized samples with PBS, centrifuged the samples, and dispensed the supernatant onto film plates which simultaneously detect E. coli and coliforms after 24 hours of incubation. We counted colonies, and calculated colony forming units (CFUs) per gram of beef used to prepare the supernatant. We did not find any conclusive relationship between the meat price and the quantity of coliform bacteria. However, all raw samples contained coliform bacteria colonies, and half of the medium-rare samples (130°F) contained at least one coliform bacteria sample. No samples cooked to 160°F grew coliform bacteria or E. coli. Thus, the CDC’s guidelines for should be followed to avoid foodborne illness exposure from ground beef.

Ruínas em solo terrestre: uma análise de Piquenique na estrada, inumanidade e Antropoceno
Authors: Villon Renata Coutinho
Published: September 2024

Em Piquenique na Estrada, de Boris e Arkadi Strugátski, uma ameaça alienígena desconhecida e inexplicável deixa zonas igualmente inexplicáveis e altamente mortíferas em alguns espaços delimitados ao redor do planeta. O presente trabalho analisa a obra tendo como foco o  confronto entre uma humanidade até então soberana e esse outro não nomeado que agora ocupa seu espaço, de forma a refletir a respeito do próprio significado de “ser humano” e a destruição por ele efetuada no planeta – ou Gaia, como veremos principalmente a partir das observações de Viveiros de Castro e Danowski. Para tal, movimentamos também outros estudos teóricos a respeito da inumanidade e da xenologia, buscando demonstrar que a invasão alienígena que ocorre na obra parece na verdade dizer respeito ao próprio descaso humano, sendo mesmo representativa do poder destrutivo que o homem mantém sobre Gaia no Antropoceno. Também adentramos o próprio conceito de zona, além de refletir a respeito das ruínas e seu aparecimento.
Palavras-chave: Antropoceno. Estudos da animalidade. Ecocrítica. Xenologia. Ficção científica.
Abstract
In Roadside Picnic, by Boris and Arkadi Strugátski, an unknown and unexplained alien threat leaves equally unexplained and highly deadly zones in certain delimited spaces around the planet. This paper analyzes the work with a focus on the confrontation between a hitherto sovereign humanity and this unnamed other who now occupies its space, in order to reflect on the very meaning of “human being” and the destruction it has wrought on the planet – or Gaia, as we will see mainly from the observations of Viveiros de Castro and Danowski. To this end, we will also look at other theoretical studies on inhumanity and xenology, in an attempt to demonstrate that the alien invasion that takes place in the play actually seems to be about human neglect itself, and is even representative of the destructive power that man holds over Gaia inthe Anthropocene. We will also go into the concept of zone itself, as well as reflect a little on ruins and how they appear.

Ensaiar para depois do fim: além de dualismos, nós
Authors: Mattos Marina Baltazar
Published: September 2024

A partir do questionamento do pensamento binário, hierarquizante por si só, procura-se refletir sobre os paradigmas que se encontram nos supostos polos contrários, na tentativa de ampliar as possibilidades de leitura e construção conjunta de maneiras de habitar e situar nossa habitação no mundo como parte integrante da natureza. Para tanto, um percurso sobre alguns dualismos, partindo da perspectiva ecofeminista, da transdisciplinaridade e sobretudo por meio de alguns conceitos fundamentais de Donna Haraway, será traçado, no ensaio de revisão de um fim de mundo menos metafórico e mais voltado para a construção urgente de um mundo comum. A prática de Cecilia Vicuña demonstra como a arte pode ativar novos modos de agir e pensar, de maneira coletiva e alinhada à noção de rede.

Abstract
This essay seeks to reflect on the paradigms that are found in the supposed opposite poles of the binary thinking, hierarchical itself, in an attempt to expand the possibilities of reading and construct ways of inhabiting and situating our dwelling in the world as a part of nature. To this end, a route on some dualisms will be traced, starting from the ecofeminist perspective, transdisciplinarity and through some fundamental concepts of Donna Haraway, in a rehearse to revise an end of the world less metaphorical and more focused on the urgent building of a  common world. Cecilia Vicuña’s practice elaborates how art can activate new ways of acting and thinking, in a collective shape and aligned with the web notion.
Keywords: Dualisms. Ecof eminism. Donna Haraway. Cecilia Vicuña.
Optimizing Lightweight Convolutional Neural Networks for Hyperspectral Image Fusion
Authors: Hong Weiheng
Published: September 2024

This paper addresses the challenges associated with processing complex scenes and high-precision images on resource-constrained devices, particularly within the domain of hyperspectral image processing and super-resolution reconstruction techniques. We present an optimized model for existing hyperspectral image fusion models, leveraging network lightweight and channel pruning. Our proposed model, NestFuse Small, employs NestFuse as the primary network architecture and integrates a quantization pruning module. Experimental findings demonstrate that, in comparison to the original NestFuse model, NestFuse Small’s computation speed is 164.8% of the pre-optimization speed, a decrease in memory usage of 20.65%, resulting in a slight decrease in performance. This optimized model facilitates more efficient image processing on resource-constrained devices.
Ancient poetry generation based on bidirectional LSTM model neural network
Authors: Fang Haosen
Published: September 2024

Automatic generation of ancient poems has been a research hotspot in the field of artificial intelligence, which is of great significance in cultural inheritance and literary creation. Due to the strict tonal patterns and complex structural rules of classical Chinese poetry, generating classical Chinese poetry has been a challenging task for both human poets and computer programs. In this paper, we propose a neural network model based on the introduction of an attention mechanism, which combines a bidirectional LSTM model and an attention mechanism to solve some problems in the traditional automatic generation model of ancient poems. The model is trained using the dataset of ancient poems studied by previous researchers, and the performance of the model is evaluated and analyzed by evaluating the metrics BLEU, Perplexity, Generation Effect and Linguistic Coherence. The experimental results show that the model exhibits good performance and excellent results on the task of automatic generation of ancient poems.
Bipolar Disorder: A Comprehensive Analysis of its Etiology, Impact, and Treatment Options
Authors: Gao Yue
Published: September 2024

Bipolar disorder (BD) is a disorder significantly impacts individuals worldwide, marked by alternating episodes of mania and depression. The onset and progression of the disease are impact by a interplay of genetic factors, neurobiological differences, environmental stressors, hormonal imbalances, and circadian rhythm disruptions. These factors collectively contribute to the manifestation and exacerbation of the disorder. The disorder profoundly affect both mental and physical health. The pervasive impact on daily life can be overwhelming, resulting in severe emotional distress. This distress is compounded by the high risk of suicide associated with the disorder, underscoring the critical need for vigilant care and comprehensive support to ensure the well-being of affected individuals. Effective treatment requires a holistic approach combining pharmacological interventions, psychotherapy, and lifestyle adjustments. Mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and antidepressants, alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and family therapy, form the cornerstone of treatment. Lifestyle modifications, including regular exercise, adequate sleep, and balanced nutrition, are crucial for symptom management. Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is considered for severe cases. This review underscores the need for continuous research and innovation in therapeutic strategies and emphasizes bridging global disparities in mental health services to ensure equitable care and improve the well-being of people with bipolar disorder.

The impact of language consistency on the perceived quality of consumer reviews: A study based on information adoption model and automated annotation of language large models
Authors: Zhu Xiaotian
Published: September 2024

As online reviews play an increasingly important role in consumer decisions, understanding these influencing factors significantly improves review quality and user satisfaction. Based on the information adoption model, this study explores the impact of Language Style Matching (LSM) and Topic Matching on the perceived quality of user reviews. By analyzing 26,852 reviews on the Airbnb platform in California from January to May 2024, the LIWC tool was used to calculate the language style matching score of each review, and the LDA model was used to perform topic analysis to obtain the corresponding topic score. In addition, each review is scored through the GPT-3.5 model from four dimensions: specificity, clarity, emotional color, and usefulness. The research results show that language style matching and topic matching significantly affect the perceived quality of reviews, in which perceived credibility and perceived usefulness mediate in this process. Future research can use multiple language models to score reviews and calculate the scores, reducing the bias caused by a single model.
