Lessening The Cost of Whistleblowing Through Hierarchy Peer-Reporting Type: A Grid-Group Cultural Theory Perspective
Authors: Hakami Akhmad Hafizh , Hakim Tito IM. Rahman , Muhammad Erfan
Published: May 2024

Purpose – This study examines the moderating effect of peer-reporting type on the influence of microsocial ethical environment, anonymous reporting channel, and perceived personal cost on internal whistleblowing intentions.Methodology – This paper is an empirical study using accounting students at Trunojoyo Madura University and Bahaudin Mudhary University as respondents. By distributing an online questionnaire and using incidental sampling, 156 responses were obtained. WarpPLS software version 7.0 is used to test the hypotheses.Findings – Microsocial ethical environment and perceived personal costs have a significant effect on whistleblowing intentions. Anonymous reporting channel do not have a substantial impact on whistleblowing intentions. Peer-reporting type moderates the influence of anonymous reporting channel on whistleblowing intentions. Still, it does not significantly moderate the effect of microsocial ethical environment and the impact of perceived personal costs on whistleblowing intentions. This research also provides empirical evidence that the hierarchical dimension is a suitable policy to use to report wrongdoing among accounting students at Trunojoyo Madura University and Bahaudin Mudhary University who take forensic accounting courses.Originality – This study is among the earliest to investigate the moderation effect of peer-reporting type. A previous study based on grid-group cultural theory proposes peer-reporting type as one of the antecedents of whistleblowing intentions, albeit at the conceptual level. The present study tries to further develop this concept (peer-reporting type) as a moderating variable by transforming the peer-reporting type concept into a research instrument.  Limititation/Implication – The peer-reporting type questionnaire in this research was created referring to the peer-reporting type concept proposed by the previous study. This instrument is based on the four-dimensional concept of grid-group cultural theory, which is still at the conceptual level. Therefore, the validity and reliability of this instrument need to be tested further through settings, respondents, and others research.
Étude descriptive des liens entre les hospitalisations pour intoxication liée à la consommation de substances et l’itinérance au Canada
Authors: Plouffe Rebecca , White Rochelle , Orpana Heather , Grywacheski Vera
Published: May 2024

Introduction

L’objectif de cette analyse est de décrire les caractéristiques démographiques du patient, le contexte, les caractéristiques et les conséquences de l’intoxication liée à la consommation de substances ainsi que les troubles de santé mentale consignés chez les personnes ayant un logement et chez celles en situation d’itinérance.

Méthodologie

Les données sur l’hospitalisation au Canada (à l’exclusion du Québec) du 1er avril 2019 au 31 mars 2020 ont été extraites de la Base de données sur les congés des patients de l’Institut canadien d’information sur la santé (ICIS) à l’aide des codes de la CIM-10-CA pour jusqu’à 25 diagnostics d’intoxication liée à la consommation de substances, l’itinérance et d’autres caractéristiques ayant trait à l’hospitalisation du patient. À l’aide du test du khi carré, de tests t et de la méthode exacte de Fisher, nous avons comparé les caractéristiques des personnes en situation d’itinérance à celles des personnes ayant un logement ainsi que les caractéristiques de leur hospitalisation pour intoxication liée à la consommation de substances.

Résultats

La proportion d’hommes, de jeunes et de personnes ayant des troubles de santé mentale consignés était plus forte chez les personnes en situation d’itinérance hospitalisées pour une intoxication liée à la consommation de substances que chez leurs homologues ayant un logement. Les intoxications liées à la consommation de substances chez les personnes en situation d’itinérance étaient plus susceptibles d’être accidentelles, d’être causées par des opioïdes et des stimulants (le plus souvent le fentanyl et ses analogues ainsi que l’héroïne), d’entraîner une hospitalisation plus longue et de se conclure par un départ de l’hôpital contre l’avis du médecin.

Conclusion

Ces résultats sont utilisables pour renforcer les stratégies et les interventions visant à réduire les méfaits liés à la consommation de substances dans les populations prioritaires, en particulier les personnes en situation d’itinérance.
Ecocide in the dimension of the constitutional and economic law of Ukraine
Authors: Hladka N. , Sobchuk A.
Published: May 2024

The article reveals the concept of ecocide, its negative impact on constitutional and economic legal relations and the consequences of such an act, especially during the period of martial law. In fact, since the beginning of the war, we have been observing the purposeful destruction of the ecosystem, flora, fauna, industrial, energy and infrastructure facilities, natural resources and the environment of the country. These offenses directly encroach on the normal state of social and legal relations in the sphere of economy, on the right to a safe environment and on the preservation of the gene pool of the Ukrainian people.
The author draws attention to the fact that in Ukrainian legislation the concept of ecocide is defined in the Criminal Code of Ukraine and the appropriate measure of punishment is provided, namely from eight to fifteen years of imprisonment. It is emphasized that this criminal offense encroaches on a wider range of social and legal relations, namely property, economic entities and objects, the social position of the population, the life and health of a person, his safety and integrity. This is a violation of the norms of the constitutional and economic law of Ukraine. The study concluded that the mass destruction of flora and fauna, forests, poisoning of water bodies, interference with the ecosystem of Ukraine has extremely socially dangerous consequences not only for Ukraine itself, but also for Europe (for example, many objects of the Emerald Network are under threat of destruction and they are protected at the pan-European level) and for the world in general (for example, the impact on the atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere of the Earth as a result of the use of weapons). Unfortunately, air pollution has no boundaries.
The article emphasizes that it is military ecocide as a criminal offense against the environment that requires clearer and more detailed legal regulation in the national legal system as well as in the international legal field, and generally recognition of such an offense that encroaches on humanity as a whole. After all, ecocide can be equated to such criminal offenses as crimes against humanity and genocide.
Urban agglomerations as forms of cooperation of communities in the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine
Authors: Drobush I.V.
Published: May 2024

The decentralization reform, which is undoubtedly one of the most successful in Ukraine, contributed to the formation and strengthening of the foundations of the functioning of the municipal government in Ukraine, which in the conditions of a full-scale war demonstrated the ability to counter extraordinary challenges, ensuring the functioning of the economy and the livelihood of the population. Local self- government bodies not only made a significant contribution to strengthening the defense capability of the state, but also provided support to communities that were occupied/de-occupied, provided temporary housing and created favorable conditions for the integration of forcibly displaced persons into the community, guaranteed the timely provision of the entire range of services at the community level, etc. The article is devoted to the search for ways to improve the institution of local self- government in the conditions of war and post-war reconstruction of Ukraine, which will speed up the reconstruction of destroyed settlements, lead to the growth of economic indicators and a significant increase in the level of providing services to the population. The author substantiates the need to revise the legislative regulation of issues of cooperation of territorial communities, in particular by creating urban agglomerations as one of the types of cooperation of territorial communities. The practice of functioning of urban agglomerations in foreign countries and the prospects of creating such agglomerations in Ukraine are analyzed. Attention is focused on the efforts of legislative regulation of the functioning of urban agglomerations, the debatability of the norms of the draft laws, which defined urban agglomerations as a separate component of the administrative-territorial system, contained norms that, having established the principle of mutual benefit, essentially legitimized the attempt of large cities to extend the sphere of their influence to adjacent territories, expand the boundaries of own powers at the expense of the powers and resources of neighboring territorial communities. It is proposed to supplement the Law «On the Cooperation of Territorial Communities»; and some other laws with separate regulations determining the legal status of agglomerations, to provide for the formation of the agglomeration council and to include in its sphere of competence consideration of issues affecting the common interests of territorial communities that are part of the agglomeration, and to provide a list of basic powers, which may vary depending on the amount of institutional capacity of the respective agglomeration.

Development of Diffraction Research Methodologies for Mediloy S-CO Alloy Speciments Made Using LPBF Additive Manufacturing
Authors: Gadalińska Elżbieta , Malicki Maciej , Trykowska Anna , Moneta Grzegorz
Published: May 2024

This study focuses on the application and improvement of diffraction measurement methodologies for the optimization of manufacturing parameters of CoCr alloy components made by additive manufacturing (AM) – particularly for Mediloy S-Co alloy specimens made using Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing. We measured the phase composition of specimens obtained in AM processes, the measurement of residual stresses resulting from the manufacture of these printed parts, as well as the effectiveness of stress relaxation through the use of heat treatments dedicated to this type of material. Findings reveal several insights into how printing strategies affect the porosity and residual stresses in additive manufacturing. Specimens with higher porosity, particularly those created using specific strategies that resulted in lower energy densities, exhibited lower residual stresses. Notably, printing direction and energy density were found to significantly affect the mechanical stresses within the specimens, with directional choices playing a critical role in the final properties of the parts. Additionally, our findings underscore the complex relationship between various printing parameters and the development of mechanical stresses, highlighting the impact of adjustments in printing strategy on the properties of printed components.

In contemporary corporate landscapes, the pursuit of employee satisfaction and the influence of technology on organizational communication are pivotal considerations. Companies increasingly promote an organizational culture centered on freedom and minimal constraints, yet this abstract evaluates the authenticity of these assertions amid the technologically evolving workplace. The Introduction emphasizes the dichotomy between the perceived freedoms facilitated by technology and the potential constraints it imposes on employee communication. The impact of technology on communication within companies in Romania is a focal point of investigation. While technological advancements offer expanded access to information, real-time collaboration across global teams, and flexible work arrangements, the Conclusion underscores the risks associated with excessive surveillance and communication restrictions. It highlights the adverse effects of closely monitored communication, leading to reduced privacy, employee anxiety, and compromised performance. The abstract delves into the delicate balance between technological integration and employee freedom. It addresses the need for companies to critically reflect on their communication policies to prevent the erosion of trust and loyalty among employees. Notably, it identifies the pivotal role of individuals in fostering or limiting communication, stressing the significance of an open and supportive communication environment. This study, involving 76 companies across multiple counties, examines the interplay between technological advancements and organizational communication. It reveals the importance of fostering an environment where employees feel encouraged to communicate without infringement on their rights, crucial for building loyalty and enhancing workplace effectiveness.

Globalization, the rise of the internet and the online market, as well as the expansion of mobility, have contributed to the exponential growth of tourism, and Europe can claim global supremacy when it comes to international tourism. The rate of growth in the number of tourists has accelerated over the last ten years thanks to the flexibility of travelling modalities, the openness to tourism of many countries and, last but not least, the emergence of collaborative tourism, which is a worthwhile alternative to classic tourism. The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), which broke out in February 2020, has had a disastrous impact on the entire tourism industry. Due to this pandemic, domestic and international travel has been disrupted enough to have an immediate and fundamental impact on tourism and all related activities. The pandemic has changed the way people manifest themselves and paved the way for trends such as contactless technology, working from home, high standards of hygiene, domestic travel, and holidays with a small number of people. As a result, the trends already existing in the market before the outbreak of the pandemic, which were reshaping the idea of tourism, have been reinforced even more now. These include digitalization, durable and sustainable consumption, a growing demand for travel booked through platforms and, last but not least, the desire for personalized and original experiences. In this paper we aim to highlight the dimension of the Airbnb, one of the most successful sharing economy platforms, before and after the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting in what manner the advances of the digital world have interacted with the challenges, restrictions and opportunities of the recent pandemic, economic and political crises.

The benefits of implementing European Project Management (EPM) have been studied in various contexts, as achieving objectives through EPM holds significant potential for organizations, governments, and society. Although researchers have been paying more attention to this topic recently, there is a current need for more systematic work that depicts how management is applied to successfully European-funded projects in general. Moreover, being Romania's primary funding source, it is vital to analyze and assess the factors that lead EU projects to success. The originality of this paper consists of systematically identifying, critically evaluating, and synthesizing relevant studies and publications on EPM, using semi-automated and manual filtering, both exclusionary and inclusionary, while analyzing and assessing critical success factors of national relevance. This research significantly contributes to knowledge of the factors affecting the success of Europeanfunded projects in Romania and offers practical approaches that can be applied in this field. Our results can be used to address Romania's current weaknesses and challenges in accessing EU funds, such as reducing bureaucracy, fighting corruption, and strengthening administrative capacity. Moreover, this paper can serve as a manual for training and coaching programs to improve project teams' competencies and knowledge.

Globalization has brought with it new opportunities. Substantial growth in the developing world, led by China, has lifted millions of people out of poverty. But globalization has also led to more complex and interconnected threats. The arteries of our society - such as IT systems and energy supply - are more vulnerable. Global warming and environmental degradation are changing the face of our planet. Moreover, globalization accelerates changes in power relations and highlights differences in values. The recent financial crisis has destabilized both developed and developing economies. As other crises are expected to spread in a domino effect, redefining national security will be essential for states and regional organizations. But in this process the decisions could collide with the assumed international obligations. Rethinking the national security agenda will certainly face issues that require the protection of certain strategic sectors that have a greater negative impact on the climate neutrality policy.

An unusually large superficial angiomyxoma with delayed presentation due to COVID-19: a case report
Authors: O’Hara Niall , Kolaityte Valdone , Eltigani Tigani
Published: May 2024

Background:

Superficial angiomyxoma is a rare, benign, soft-tissue tumor. It has a non-specific presentation and there is no clear diagnostic investigation. Therefore, it is usually not suspected pre-operatively and managed incorrectly with a biopsy or narrow margin excision, which increases the recurrence rate.

Case Presentation:

A case of an unusually large superficial angiomyxoma is described with a delayed presentation to a plastic surgery clinic due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The patient was a 53-year-old male with an atraumatic 8 × 4 cm subcutaneous, mobile swelling to the left thigh. Excision was performed with no evidence of recurrence at 6 months. The mass was an uniloculated cyst with gelatinous myxoid stroma. Immunohistochemistry was positive for Alcian blue and CD34.

Conclusion:

This case report raises awareness of this rare lesion and provides a review of diagnostic aids as well as clear intra-operative photography of what a surgeon might expect when this tumor is encountered.

Artistic geography of "Middle Volga texts" by D. Osokin
Authors: Khromova Diana Alexandrovna , Kutdyusova Adilya Ildusovna
Published: May 2024

This article is devoted to the representation of the Middle Volga space in the works of the Russian prose writer Denis Osokin. Domestic literary scholars propose to consider artistic space from the point of view of spatial topography, which implies the opposition of abstraction to concreteness, its horizontal or vertical orientation, spatial extent and localization (expansion-compression, openness-closedness). The search for new methods for studying literary texts has given rise to the need for a comprehensive method, in which a method combining cultural-historical, mythopoetic and geopoetic analysis is quite promising. The subject of the research is the artistic space of Osokin’s “Volga region” texts. The purpose of the study is to determine the specifics of the literary geography of Osokin’s works related to the Volga region. The work uses such scientific methods of analysis as cultural-geographical, structural-semiotic methods and contextual analysis. The scientific novelty of the research is determined by the fact that among modern literary works there are no works devoted to the study of the artistic space of the works of many modern authors, in particular Denis Osokin, his works are considered insufficiently in relation to the phenomena of Kazan and other regional texts. The main conclusion of the study is the substantiation of the special properties of the artistic space of the Middle Volga in the works of D. Osokin, which has attractive properties – uniqueness, semantic richness, cognitive value. Reflection of geographical space in works of art makes it possible to represent and interpret the sociocultural processes of a place and set ontological guidelines. Osokin’s Middle Volga region is a metaspace where the national is organically combined with the foreign, it is a space of memory and the rediscovery of lost meanings.

Recent trends in numerical studies suggest the possible need for scale-resolving simulations for resolving shock oscillations on transonic compressors, the sources of which are unclear. The effect of promoting transition on the suction side upstream of self-sustained shock oscillations from a laminar shock/boundary-layer interaction (altitude conditions) in transonic compressors is studied using implicit large-eddy simulation, as well as experiments in a transonic cascade. The experiment is performed at conditions leading to different shock structures, and the shock behavior is captured with high-speed schlieren imaging. The Rolls-Royce HYDRA in-house code is employed for the numerical simulations. Trends in the change of oscillation behavior are discussed. The work addresses the fundamentally different behavior between an idealized quasi-2D LES case and an experimental cascade. This suggests that a simplification of the shock oscillation problem to a more canonical form is needed in order to investigate the oscillation mechanism itself experimentally and validate the CFD of the mechanism before returning to more complex cases.

Numerical Study of Transonic Buffet on SC(2)-0518 and OAT15A with Vortex Generators
Authors: Tsukamoto Yuta , Kitamura Keiichi
Published: May 2024

Predicting the transonic buffet and its onset is important for ascertaining the performance limits of an aircraft at its critical angle of attack. Additionally, a physical understanding of the buffet suppression technique is important for preventing shock wave oscillations. In this study, we conducted zonal detached-eddy simulations to numerically investigate the effects of vortex generators (VGs) on buffet suppression and to discuss the differing flow characteristics of the SC(2)-0518 and OAT15A supercritical airfoils when the chordwise position of the VGs is varied. The results for both airfoils equipped with VGs demonstrated significant suppression of large-scale lift oscillations across all calculation steps. VGs placed at 10% of the chord ([Formula: see text]) from the leading edge produced higher time-averaged lift coefficients for both airfoils, with the OAT15A airfoil showing a particularly notable 2.5% improvement in lift coefficient, leading to a 0.82% increase in [Formula: see text] ratio. The visualized results indicated that the interaction between the shock wave and VGs leads to variations in the separation point, depending on the VG chordwise position. This separation is affected by the aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil shapes and the wake induced by the VGs, ultimately resulting in changes to the lift coefficient.
Rarefied Flow Simulations of Heat Transfer Across Evacuated Cryogenic Tank Insulation Structures
Authors: Konopka Martin , Winkert Eric , Wendt Christian
Published: May 2024

The Direct Simulation Monte Carlo Method computations are performed to investigate the heat transfer across highly evacuated cryogenic tank insulation structures. These structures usually consist of one cold and one hot wall with a temperature difference up to 260 K surrounding a rarefied gas which originates from permeating or leaking propellant. To validate the flow solver PICLas for this application, heat transfer results across parallel flat plates with nonflowing gaseous hydrogen and methane are compared to empirical relations of rarefied gas heat transfer and reference computations, showing good agreement with a deviation of less than 11%. Because gas flow usually occurs during and after evacuation, the heat transfer and skin friction coefficient in a symmetrical hydrogen channel flow with a wall distance of 30 mm is compared with literature data, showing a good match with a Nusselt number deviation of less than 20%. Furthermore, honeycomb tank insulation structures are analyzed, which can be used for future cryogenic liquid rocket tanks. Here, rarefied flow simulations are performed for slitted honeycomb structures with and without throughflow of hydrogen gas at a Knudsen number of 1.5 and transitional flow conditions at a Knudsen number of 0.1. The heat transfer results at the honeycomb sandwich are 50 to 70% below empirical relations for heat transfer across flat plates. Throughflow does not affect the heat transfer across the honeycomb because the Peclet number is less than 0.01.

Published: May 2024

The aim of this study was to investigate polymer composites based on andesite of different dispersion as a filler with different types of polymer matrix for further development of production technology. Varying the types and concentration of mineralfillers of different genesis, including volcanic rocks, is one of the ways to modify polymer composite materials. The choice of filler type is an important factor influencing the structure formation and properties of the resulting composite. At the same time, varying the particle size distribution of the filler and its quantitative ratio with the matrix makes it possible to adjust the performance properties of the resulting composite materials within a wide range. In addition, the surface properties of thefiller particles and the chemical nature of the polymer matrix are of great importance. The possibility of expanding the range and increasing the operational reliability of composite materials when using new types of natural raw materials determine therelevance of this research. To achieve this goal, a set of modern methods of physical and chemical analysis and standardised testing of materials was used in the study. The object of the study was composite materials using andesite screenings as a fractionated filler and copolymers as a matrix. Changes in the physical and mechanical properties of the composites were determined by varying the content (55-85 wt.%) and granulometry of the filler and the type of polymeric binder. According to the test results, it is possible to adjust the parameters of the properties of polymer composites, while the range of their changes is as follows: water absorption 2.2-14.9 %, density 1.24-1.96 g/cm3, abrasion 0.005-0.1 g/cm2, elastic modulus 41-83 Pa/mm2, which indicates the prospects of manufacturing and practical use of the obtained wear-resistant composites in construction

Objetivo: Avaliar a percepção de sujeitos em processo de transexualização com relação à atenção e promoção dos serviços de saúde. Métodos: Estudo transversal, desenvolvido de forma remota, no período de junho a outubro de 2022, através de contatos telefônicos fornecidos pela instituição parceira: Casarão Brasil, localizada em São Paulo. A amostra foi composta por 28 sujeitos, com idade variando entre 22 a 52 anos e foram aplicados três questionários: 1. Questionário semi-estruturado; 2. Escala de Empatia – CARE Scale of empathy; 3.  Questionário de Avaliação da Satisfação dos Usuários. Resultados: Da amostra, 96,43% declararam estar desempregados e 53,57% relataram possuir ensino médio e fundamental incompletos. Os sujeitos em processo de transexualização encontram dificuldades com relação ao acesso aos serviços de saúde, como longas esperas para marcação de consultas e para atendimentos nos serviços de saúde, despreparo dos profissionais ao atendê-los, dificuldade com o uso do nome social e patologização da transexualidade. Conclusão: Pode-se concluir, portanto, que a percepção das pessoas transexuais a respeito dos serviços de saúde é marcada pela discriminação, demora para conseguir atendimentos e falta de estrutura dos estabelecimentos.
