NAKED ATTRACTION: STRUCTURE OF DESIRE
Authors: Perepelytsia Oleh , Khrabrova Olha
Published: November 2023

The article conceptualizes the structure of desire, which is inherent in the society of the spectacle of consumption. The nature of the representations of diversity, equality, and equivalence, which constitute the contemporary subject of desire and exhibit the singularity of desire directed at a partial object, is determined. The specificity of the culture of contemporary society, which is oriented towards various methods of "self-invention" through the publication of the construction of the personality, is fixated on body. It is about the dominance of defragmented images produced according to the principles of commodity form through representation, which is ensured by the development of contemporary media technologies. In this perspective, the capitalized body is reduced to its instrumentality, the production potential of its parts, which is legitimized by the process of transformation of sexuality, which can be observed in the contemporary media space, in talk shows, in particular Naked Attraction, the characteristic features of which are considered in the article.

The subject of the society of the spectacle of consumption is the subject of desire, which focuses on the surfaces of the body as a wrapper in which pleasure is wrapped. The process of unpacking appears as one that gives pleasure. In the Deleuzian projection this type of desire and this mode of jouissance is interpreted as masochistic, which is realized in the form of a contract and, in particular, in the "suspense" of unpacking/undressing. In the spectacle of consumption, we are talking about the gradualness of desire, which moves from organs/parts according to the logic of unpacking as the fanning of desire. The figure of the subject of desire/spectacle/consumption is defined through points of divergence/convergence: natural/cultural, whole/partial, single/multiple, intimate/extimate. Thus, it is argued that there is no single whole subject, a personality to be reproduced or imitated. Instead, there is a partiality of the multitude that is in the transformational process of self-(re)presentation. In this context, life appears as a movement from part to part, the quality of which is assessed by the ability to give/receive, produce/consume, exhibit/contemplate pleasure/enjoyment, which unfolds in the deconstruction and transformation of the subject of desire and in particular sexuality.
Effect of nano hybrid additives on low velocity impact responses of aramid composite plates: example of CNT and ZrO2
Authors: KAYRICI Mehmet , UZUN Yusuf , ARIKAN Hüseyin , KARAVELİOĞLU Ahmet
Published: November 2023

Aramid reinforced composites are advanced materials that are widely used in many industrial applications thanks to their combination of high strength and lightness. Nano additives are of great importance for improving the mechanical properties of aramid reinforced composites and reducing costs. In this paper, multi-walled Carbon Nanotube (CNT) and Zirconia (ZrO2) nano hybrid additives were used to determine the effect on the mechanical characterization of aramid composite plates. Therefore, low velocity impact responses of aramid fiber reinforced composites were investigated by adding ZrO2 and CNT nano hybrid additives to the Polives 701 polymer vinylester resin matrix. Low velocity impact tests were carried out at 10 J and 15 J. As a result of the experiments, the effects of nano hybrid additives on the impact absorption properties of aramid composite plates were determined. By determining the maximum force, displacement and time values, the effect of CNT and ZrO2 nano hybrid additives on the impact resistance of the composite plates was analyzed. In addition, it contributed to the development of composite materials used in industrial applications by providing information on increasing the performance of composite materials by using nano additives. As a result of this study, it was determined that the strength of the composite material increased proportionally when the CNT additive was used, and the material became embrittled when the ZrO2 additive was used.

This article shares both the passion for novel educational models and quality teaching. The aim is twofold – to present the Sustainable Educational & Emotional Model (SEEM) as a universal frame to manage the modern educational challenges in post-COVID-19 times. Further, an example is given at the secondary educational level with a focus on mathematics. SEEM – the essence: SEEM is a result of more than 20 years of experience and research in higher education. SEEM is an integrative model that respects the fundamental principles of positive education, utilizing the potential of technologies. SEEM builds on the specific context (culture and policy), content (the concrete subject or topic), methodologies, or just instruments as well as the actors (educators and students). The model is based on the three SEEM pillars or principles: 1) interactive teaching sustained by the values of freedom, holism and respect; 2) technology application – the pandemic crisis has strengthened this pillar; 3) positive emotions (jokes and humor are promoted). SEEM – secondary school application: SEEM has been extensively applied in higher education. Here, the model is used in a secondary educational context allowing proving its versatility and simplicity. The SEEM model is introduced to summarise and synthesize knowledge on the topic of Similarities. The SEEM pedagogical framework was combined with a diagnostic model for the key competencies assessment. Conclusion: SEEM enables us to rethink the classical teaching and assessment approaches in secondary education. An illustration from the realm of mathematics exemplifies this fact. SEEM aspires to establish a comprehensive model, operating on the principle that optimal learning outcomes can be achieved if students find enjoyment in the educational process.

The SARS-CoV-2 BA.2.86 Omicron subvariant was first detected in wastewater in Sweden in week 31 2023, using 21 highly specific markers from the 50 investigated. We report BA.2.86’s introduction and subsequent spread to all 14 regions performing wastewater sampling, and on 70 confirmed COVID-19 cases, along with the emergence of sublineages JN.1 and JN.2. Further, we investigated two novel mutations defining the unique BA.2.86 branching in Sweden. Our integrated approach enabled variant tracking, offering evidence for well-informed public health interventions.
Contested and Contesting:

Published: November 2023

‘Contestation’ is a term often used to describe various kinds of conflict in 21st-Century urban areas. Yet Urban planning literaturelacks a cultural approach to such resistance — an oversight that this paper seeks to redress. We argue that the concept of‘contested territories of culture’ plays a key role in the informal construction of urban areas, highlighting them as heterogeneousdrivers of ‘contestation’ and the fight for rights in Latin America’s inequality-riven cities. The authors use two methodologicalapproaches to define said ‘contestation’: (1) contextual analysis of the literature on the concept of ‘territories’ to discover theircultural character, and (2) ethnographic analysis of a case study on Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The example of the Realengo FlyoverCultural Center, a cultural appropriation of a leftover site under a flyover on Rio’s outskirts, shows the complexity of improvised,bottom-up squatting through cultural activities. The study reveals the need to understand these territories in order to draw up moreequitable public policies and urban plans. It also highlights that such territories are both culturally rich and socially vulnerable.
De los equipamientos culturales a la ciudad cultural. La experiencia proyectiva de la Ciutat de l’Artista Faller en València
Authors: Rausell-Köster Pau , Ramos Murphy Antonio , Segovia Collado Chema
Published: November 2023

Este texto propone una revisión de la idea del equipamiento cultural para avanzar hacia una comprensión ampliada del papel de la cultura en la ciudad contemporánea. Para desarrollar este argumento, partimos de un breve repaso a la evolución de la gestión y el gobierno de las grandes ciudades españolas desde la restauración de la democracia atendiendo al encaje que en dicho proceso han tenido los equipamientos culturales. Seguidamente, proponemos una lectura del equipamiento cultural que termina por presentarlo como un elemento anclado en la lógica de la democratización cultural, paradigma de política pública con considerables faltas y estrecheces de las que resulta necesario desprenderse. Formulamos entonces el marco de la ciudad cultural, un aparato conceptual para la reorientación y la reconexión de la política cultural y la política urbana. La conceptualización propuesta entiende tres funcionalidades básicas de la ciudad como artefacto: repositorio, interfaz y escenario, y las enuncia desde una óptica compleja que pone en primer plano la satisfacción de los derechos culturales de la ciudadanía. Las posibilidades proyectivas que la ciudad cultural ofrece se ejemplifican con las Bases Estratégicas para la Transformación y la Recuperación de la Ciutat de l’Artista Faller en València, una estrategia cultural orientada a la transformación urbana que busca generar un espacio productivo sostenido en las artes, la creatividad y la innovación, en el marco de un entorno accesible de vivencialidad, encuentro y colaboración, con el objetivo último de satisfacer la materialización efectiva de los derechos culturales de la ciudadanía entendidos de manera ampliada.
Revuelta social en Chile: ¿Una contra-hegemonía política que impugna el neoliberalismo?
Authors: Alvarado-Espina Eduardo , Morales-Olivares Rommy , Rivera-Vargas Pablo
Published: November 2023

El 18 de octubre de 2019 comenzó en Chile la mayor convulsión política y social desde las masivas protestas contra la dictadura de Pinochet. Estas protestas dieron paso a un proceso de impugnación (destituyente y constituyente) de las instituciones tradicionales del Estado. En este marco, el presente artículo aborda la dimensión política de la revuelta social y sus alcances en el itinerario constituyente que se acordó el 15 noviembre de 2019. Se busca responder al interrogante respecto a si el gran movimiento de masas fue la expresión de una contra-hegemonía política impugnadora del sentido común neoliberal. Para ello, se recurre a las principales corrientes teóricas que cuestionan el encaje entre democracia y neoliberalismo, especialmente la propuesta agonista del momento populista de Chantal Mouffe. En términos prácticos, se analiza, a partir del comportamiento político y electoral pasado, dos cleavages que se podrían identificar con la emergencia del momento populista, el de élite/pueblo y partidos/independientes. A partir del análisis de los datos electorales de los últimos treinta años, y puestos en relación con los resultados de la elección del año 2021 de los miembros de la Convención Constituyente, se concluye que la expresión de hartazgo se expresa fielmente en los dos cleavages que definen el momento populista. Además, se constata un fortalecimiento de las diferentes fuerzas políticas que se conciben como anti-neoliberales.

Authors: Bychkova Svitlana , Dyachenko Viktor , Sydorova Nataliia , Petukhova Iryna , Sydorova Lyudmyla
Published: November 2023

Introduction

Accumulated evidence suggests that pulmonary fibrosis is a common complication of COVID-19. Fibrotic post-coronavirus lung changes are similar to the changes found in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Aim

The paper describes the outcomes of pirfenidone usage in treatment of patients with post-coronavirus pulmonary fibrosis.

Case study

The paper presents a case study about a 51-year-old male patient, who had diffuse post-coronavirus pulmonary fibrosis with significant impairment of external respiratory function. The patient had experienced severe COVID-19 bilateral polysegmental pneumonia. In the 3rd week of the disease, multislice computed tomography detected signs of fibrosis that affected 80% of lung tissue. It was decided to start antifibrotic treatment with pirfenidone, which is usually used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Results and discussion

Pirfenidone was prescribed for 3 months according to the conventional scheme in combination with methylprednisolone. This therapy resulted in significant decrease of fibrosis scope , normalization of respiratory function and improvement of patient's quality of life. A key feature of the presented clinical case is a significant positive effect of pirfenidone in treating coronavirus-associated pulmonary fibrosis, which affected 80% of lung tissue of the patient.

Conclusions

Post-coronavirus pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by the severe oxygen insufficiency and requires a constant oxygen support. The treatment that included pirfenidone in combination with steroids has demonstrated convincing positive effect. It reduces post-coronavirus pulmonary fibrosis and improves lung function.

Napjaink robbanásszerű fejlődése a drónok alkalmazásában és az agráriumban olyan újfajta lehetőségeket kínál, melyek azelőtt elképzelhetetlenek voltak. A drónok alkalmazása a növényfelmérésben, növényvédelemben mindenképpen csökkenti a környezeti hatásokat a korábban alkalmazott módszerekhez képest. Egy kevésbé ismert módszertant mutatunk be a Kis-Balaton természetvédelmi vizsgálatának példáján: a drónok által készített, adott időbeli gyakoriságú (multitemporális) felvételeket nemcsak a változások detektálására lehet használni, hanem akár a feldolgozásuk során az osztályozási eljárások pontosításához is. Kutatásunk alapján kijelenthető, hogy multitemporális felvételeket alkalmazva, növényzeti monitoring vizsgálathoz az RGB szenzorok is alkalmasak, mégpedig a R sáv kiértékelésével megfelelő pontosság érhető el az osztályozás során.

Munkahelyi környezetünket egyre többféle kulturális hatás alakítja. A sokszínű miliő számos izgalmas élményt szerez a munkavállalóknak, folyamatos lehetőséget biztosít a tanulásra és gazdagítja viselkedéskészletüket is. A tanulmány a multikulturális környezetet többféle szempontból tárgyalja. Az első részben a releváns szakirodalat tekintem át, amely a helyzetet elsősorban újszerű ingerek tömegeként vizsgálja, amely jelentős kihívást, kognitív megterhelést jelent a munkavállalóknak. A szokatlan, váratlan és saját kultúránktól idegen helyzetek a distressz forrásai is, amelyekhez alkalmazkodnunk kell. A második részben röviden bemutatom a BGE-n megkezdett kutatásunkat, amelyben többek között erre a kihívásra igyekszünk egy intenzív heti kurzus keretében választ adni. A korábbi kutatási eredmények alapján figyelmi működésünk tudatos, módszeres fejlesztésével hatékonyabban szűrhetjük ki a zavaró, irreleváns ingereket. Ez a kognitív kontroll erősítésén keresztül érzelmi-hangulati szabályozásunkat is javítja. A meditáció különböző formái mellett a pozitív pszichológia eszköztára; a flow és más pozitív érzések facilitálása gyakorlati segítséget nyújthat az egyetemi hallgatóknak abban, hogy jövőbeli szakmai kihívásaikkal sikeresen küzdjenek meg.
A nyitottság növekedése növekedést jelent? Bővült-e a kereskedelem, ha nőtt a nyitottsági index?
Authors: Hrabovszki Ágnes Zsuzsa
Published: November 2023

A kereskedelemre ható tényezőket vizsgálva egyes tanulmányok a kereskedelem nyitottságára (export + import a GDP (bruttó hazai termék) %-ában) gyakorolt hatást a kereskedelemre érvényes hatásként értelmezik. 50 év kereskedelmi adatainak korrelációs elemzésével, országok és országcsoportok, valamint globális adatok példáján vizsgálva az indikátorokban bekövetkezett változásokat, kijelenthető, hogy az összefüggés korántsem ilyen egyértelmű. A kereskedelem nyitottsága index változásainak és a nemzetközi kereskedelmi forgalom változásainak korrelációja időszakonként jelentős eltérést mutat, a gyenge kapcsolattól a nagyon erős kapcsolatig. Az index nem mérsékli az értékadatok felhasználásából eredő torzításokat, nem csökkenti a cserearányok változásának hatását. A nyitottsági index függő változóként való értelmezésekor ezeket a tényezőket tanácsos figyelembe venni.

A felsőoktatást érintő változások kezelésében az oktatókra jelentős feladatok hárulnak. Az ellentmondásos elvárások és a kihívások sikeres kezeléséhez a hallgatói jellemzők fokozottabb figyelembevétele nélkülözhetetlen. Felerősödött a támogató szerepek (pl. mentor, tutor) iránti igény, amelyeket az erőforrások szűkössége miatt gyakran az oktatók látnak el. Új szerepek elsajátítása, különböző szerepek párhuzamos betöltése azonban fokozott mentális igénybevételt jelent, szerepkonfliktushoz vezethet és növeli a kiégés kockázatát. A szakirodalom alapján áttekintjük az új szerepek tanulásának és a szerepkonfliktusok feloldásának elméleti kereteit, gyakorlati lehetőségeit. Áttekintésünk rávilágít arra, hogy az új szerepeknek szervesen kell kapcsolódniuk a régihez, továbbá a támogatói szerep elemeinek beépülését a COVID-távolléti oktatás elősegítette.

Published: November 2023

The object of this paper is to give in a succinct form the work of an Agricultural Chemist and the necessity for consulting him in launching any new irrigation project. With this purpose a descriptive account is given of the work done by the Chemistry Section here in connection with the Lower Bhavani Project. This project aims at constructing a dam across the river Bhavani at a place 9 miles west of Satyamangalam and taking a channel from there across the country in a south-easterly direction to join the river Cauvery somewhere near Kodumudi. The strip of land which thus lies between this channel on one side and the rivers Bhavani and the Cauvery on the other is about 60 to 70 miles long and of an average breadth of 4 to 5 miles. The total area which will thus get to be under irrigation when the channel becomes a fait accompli will be about 200,000 acres, the main crops being millets, nadam cotton and occasionally groundnut. There is no doubt that when the area comes under irrigation we will be greatly adding to the prosperity of the whole tract by enabling ryots to go in for more paying crops which for want of water they are unable to raise now.
SOUTH INDIAN VILLAGE STUDIES A Preparatory Study of "Villur", Village No. 119, in Tirumangalam Taluq, Madura District, Madras Province.
Authors:   School of Tropical Medicine, Calcutta, P.S SESHADRI
Published: November 2023

The Madura ryot is usually a farmer in a very small way owning less than 6 acres of land. The fact that since the famine of 1876-78 no relief works or gratuitous relief have been necessary shows that he is generally industrious. Tirumangalam taluq has hardly any irrigation tanks or channels and possess but few wells, so that it is more at the mercy of adverse seasons than any other part of the district. Of late the number of wells have increased. Eighty to ninety per cent. of the cotton of the district is grown in this taluq. In the north of Villur, the regar soil is exclusively found while red sandy loam prevails in the east. These are owned by the Telugu- speaking Reddis who are good farmers. The soil to the south and west is much inferior and good farming is rarely found. Location and administration. The ryotwari village of Villur com- prises of four other smaller settlements in close proximity. It is about 20 miles south of Madura, the headquarters of the district. Tiruman- galam, the taluq headquarters, is 10 miles to the north, where there are the usual judicial, revenue and police offices. The sub-registrar's office, police and railway stations are at Kalligudi four miles from the place. The establishment at Villur consists of one Village Munsif (headman), one Karnam (accountant) and eight servants. Besides, there are a Panchayat court, a post office and a stamp vendor. Recently n Panchayat Board has been organised at Maravarpatti, one of the settle- ments.
THE INHERITANCE OF RED PERICARP COLOUR IN RICE (ORYZA SATIVA)

Published: November 2023

The red colour of rice is confined entirely to the pericarp and this is lost partially or completely when rice is subjected to various degrees of polishing, after husking. Independent segregation of red and white rice has been observed in cross progenies by several workers. Parnell (1917), Hector (1913), McKerral (1913), Thompstone (1915) and Van der Stock (1912) have all recorded a simple 3: 1 ratio of red to white rice. Lien Fang Chao (1928) has however recorded as 15: 1 ratio of red to white in addition to 3: 1. During the season of 1931-32 a cross was made between T. 322 having long panicle and white rice and T. 206 with short panicle and red rice, with the object of studying the correlation between panicle length and yield, and incidentally the rice colour was studied in the progenies. The F₁ generation was pure for red rice. The F gener- ation showed segregation for rice colour and the following results were obtained.

Published: November 2023

In tracts where irrigation works are few, either due to the geographical situation of the place or to the want of sufficient finance to undertake major irrigation works-either productive or protective -rainfall is ipso-facto the limiting factor in successful crop produc- tion. Such tracts as suffer from this initial disability of a geogra- phical disadvantage and handicap, must needs depend on Nature, to send forth her timely showers on parched up lands and crops. To this class, may be assigned the districts of Bellary, Anantapur, Cuddapah and Kurnool-and portions of Guntur and Nellore. The first four districts verily form the 'Famine zone of the Madras Presidency and the scope of this article is to show how best an agrarian calamity can be averted by improving the present agricultural practices and by the application of suitable methods for the conservation of soil moisture. It has come to pass-as evidenced from the statistics at our dis- posal that crop failure as a result of inadequate rainfall, is a matter of common occurrence and a normal crop has been purely an acci- dental achievement.

Published: November 2023

Pennisetum Typhoideum, the pearl millet, is the second important millet in India. This millet is primarily the cereal of light loams in arens of low rainfall. Whereas Sorghum is mainly single-stalked and single-headed, the pearl millet is the very opposite of sorghum in being many-stalked and many-headed. In addition to this the plant is protogynous. The details of the tillering habit of this plant were studied especi- ally with a view to assay the economic aspect of this equipment. The study was made in two years and four seasons, two of them rainfed and two irrigated. The system of branching and the order of flowering were observed in 46 plants, both rainfed and irrigated. The yield of the various kinds of tiller heads was taken in a total population of 278 plants, 78 of which were of the dry land type and 200 of the irrigated- all chosen at random from some of the typical local varieties.

The present study with special reference to "Northerns" cotton has as its aim an analysis of some economic characters of the cotton boll such as shedding interval, maturation period, seed and lint weights and lint length in relation to the flower- ing period and to the development of the flower on primary or second- ary fruiting branch. The cotton plant experiences a gradual rise in atmospheric temperature during the period of the development of its bolls and a very common observation is a general decrease in the values of some of the boll characters as the season advances (8, 17). It is also sought to present in this paper some aspects of variation of the cotton boll with reference to its position on the plant.
Origin of the Dashuigou Independent Tellurium Deposit at the Southeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: Based on the Abundances of Trace Elements in the Country Rocks
Authors: Yin Jianzhao , Xiang Shoupu , Yin Haoyu , Shi Hongyun , Chao Yuhong
Published: November 2023

Through a detailed study of the abundances and spatial-temporal distribution patterns of Te, Bi, As, Se, Cu, Pb, Zn, Au, and Ag in the rock types of different geological epochs in the Dashuigou independent tellurium deposit, and in combination with other research findings of previous researchers in this area, the authors conclude as follows: Abundances of the main ore-forming elements Te, Bi, As, Se, Au, and Ag are not high in the regional geological background, generally lower or close to their respective crustal Clark values, but almost all altered country rocks contain high levels of ore-forming elements. This indicates that the deposit’s ore-forming elements do not come from the country rocks. This also indicates that the geological thermal events that cause alteration and mineralization originate from depths and may be related to mantle plumes. Considering the distribution pattern of these ore-forming elements in the ore bodies’ hanging wall and footwall, the metallogenic mechanism may be as follows: Mineralization is not achieved through lateral secretion in the horizontal or near horizontal direction, but rather through the upward movement and emplacement of deep ore-forming elements driven by geological processes such as mantle plumes. In addition, the migration of deep ore-forming elements is not achieved through dispersed infiltration between overlying rock particles, but through non widespread concentrated penetrating channels. This type of channel is likely to be the expansion structures where faults from different directions intersect, or where linear faults intersect with circular structures.
Integration of GIS with the Generalized Reciprocal Method (GRM) for Determining Foundation Bearing Capacity: A Case Study in Opolo, Yenagoa Bayelsa State, Nigeria
Authors: Oborie Ebiegberi , Eteh Desmond
Published: November 2023

This study addresses the pressing need to assess foundation bearing capacity in Opolo, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Nigeria. The significance lies in the dearth of comprehensive geotechnical data for construction planning in the region. Past research is limited and this study contributes valuable insights by integrating Geographic Information System (GIS) with the Generalized Reciprocal Method (GRM). To collect data, near-surface seismic refraction surveys were conducted along three designated lines, utilizing ABEM Terraloc Mark 6 equipment, Easy Refract, and ArcGIS 10.4.1 software. This methodology allowed for the determination of key geotechnical parameters essential for soil characterization at potential foundation sites. The results revealed three distinct geoseismic layers. The uppermost layer, within a depth of 0.89 to 1.50 meters, exhibited inadequate compressional and shear wave velocities and low values for oedometric modulus, shear modulus, N-value, ultimate bearing capacity, and allowable bearing capacity. This indicates the presence of unsuitable, soft, and weak alluvial deposits for substantial structural loads. In contrast, the second layer (1.52 to 3.84 m depth) displayed favorable geotechnical parameters, making it suitable for various construction loads. The third layer (15.00 to 26.05 m depth) exhibited varying characteristics. The GIS analysis highlighted the unsuitability of the uppermost layer for construction, while the second and third layers were found to be fairly competent and suitable for shallow footing and foundation design. In summary, this study highlights the importance of geotechnical surveys in Opolo’s construction planning. It offers vital information for informed choices, addresses issues in the initial layer, and suggests secure, sustainable construction options.

In the context of experiential learning, the Kolb Cycle offers a dynamic approach to learning that associatively integrates the concrete and the abstract by allowing learners to engage in concrete experiences, reflect, conceptualize and actively experience their learning. This article aims to contribute to the development of an architecture of learning activities corresponding to the transition from concrete to abstract in the kolb cycle, through an inductive approach in online teaching. The study explores how Kolb's four learning styles can be integrated into online learning activities aimed at meeting the needs and preferences of learners. Our work highlights the importance of considering learning style of each learner when designing and delivering online learning activities and addresses the perception dimension (concrete and abstract) at the method and practice level that the other dimension will be presented in a future article.
ANALISIS PENGGUNAAN FLAP BURITAN SPEED BOAT UNTUK MENDAPATKAN TRIM YANG EVEN KEEL

Published: November 2023

Pengoperasian Speed boat merupakan hal penting untuk diperhatikan karena apabila kapal memiliki trim pada forude number (Fn) yang besar, maka kapal tersebut mengalami trim buritan sehingga menghalangi pandagan nahkoda, ini merupakan suatu kondisi yang sangat kritis atau mudah megalami kecelakaan. Penelitian yang dilakukan oleh de Fretes (2020) dan Ari (2021) menempatkan Fin atau winglet buritan di bagian belakang kapal, sedangkan posisi tersebut sangat berpengaruh pada pengoperasian mesin dimana olah gerak mesin dibatasi oleh kedudukan Fin tersebut. Salah satu solusi adalah menggantikan Fin oleh Flap yang letaknya di depan mesin outboard dari speed boat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengtahui berapa besar pengaruh pemasangan Flap buritan speed boat di depan mesin terhadap sudut trim yang ideal pasca pemasangan Flap pada buritan kapal dengan kecepatan kapal yang berbeda.

Pada Negeri Nolloth dan Desa Latuhalat mengoperasikan perahu ketinting. Perahu ketinting yang memiliki mesin di luar lambung perahu, mengalami perubahan kecepatan yang disebabkan oleh sudut kemiringan horizontal pada setiap pengoperasiannya tidak berada pada posisi yang tepat. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode eksperimental pada laboratorium Towing Tank dengan menggunakan variasi sudut kemiringan poros baling-baling 0°, 7°, 14°, 21°, dan 28° dalam bidang horizontal untuk posisi mesin di luar lambung perahu dan sudut kemiringan 18° untuk bidang vertical serta sudut kemiringan poros baling-baling 7o untuk posisi mesin di dalam lambung perahu. Hasilnya diketahui bahwa penggunaan variasi kemiringan 0°-14° mengalami kenaikan kecepatan yang disebabkan nilai alfa (α) yang kecil pada posisi mesin di luar lambung perahu dan kemiringan 21°-28° mengalami penurunan kecepatan yang disebabkan nilai alfa (α) yang besar pada posisi mesin di luar lambung perahu dan untuk posisi mesin di dalam lambung perahu daya dorong dan kecepatan yang dihasilkan konstan. Hasil pengujian yang diperoleh yaitu sudut kemiringan yang menghasilkan kecepatan maksimal adalah 14° dengan kecepatan 5,4 knot pada posisi mesin di luar lambung perahu dan kemiringan 7° dengan kecepatan 4,4 knot untuk posisi mesin di dalam lambung perahu.

Tanaman cengkih merupakan salah satu tanaman first nature di kepulauan Maluku. Tanaman ini merupakan komoditi yang dapat didorong untuk pengembangan industri khususnya pengembangan sub system industry minyak atsiri. Kualitas minyak atsiri yang lebih tinggi didukung dengan kondisi tanah dan iklim yang cocok untuk pertumbuhan tanaman cengkih. Analisis potensi lahan tanaman cengkih sangat diperlukan bukan hanya sebagai informasi kebijakan perencanaan kawasan tetapi juga dapat menjadi informasi investasi di Kepulauan Lease, karena dengan adanya informasi potensi lahan, pola perubahan lahan, aksesbilitas dan potensi kapasitas produksi tanaman cengkih berdasarkan kerapatan vegetasi tanaman cengkih yang dapat menyediakan keseluruhan tanaman yang dapat digunakan untuk pengembangan lokasi wilayah bahan baku dan produksi industri minyak atsiri. Penelitian ini menggunakan tahapan metode antara lain identifikasi masalah, studi literatur, pengumpulan data, pengolahan citra satelit, tutupan lahan diklasifikasi, analisis produksi tanaman cengkih dan tipologi wilayah, overlay potensi wilayah dengan citra satelit, pemetaan potensi dan distribusi penyebarannya pada setiap pulau. Dari tahapan metode ini ditemukan bahwa potensi yang dihasilkan minyak cengkih sebesar 220,8 ton/tahun. Jumlah ini ini dapat ditingkatkan jika melihat potensi lahan yang tersedia. Namun potensi yang ada tidak didukung dengan ketersediaan sarana-prasaran penunjang aktivitas agrobisnis minyak cengkih yang masih rendah pada beberapa desa. Dengan menggunakan analisis skalogram untuk menentukan struktur pusat pelayanan menurut hirarki wilayah, maka diketahui bahwa area Saparua Kota (Hirarki III) telah memenuhi fungsi pelayanan lokal hanya memenuhi kebutuhan dalam lingkup kecamatan dan antar kecamatan, pada wilayah Hirarki IV dan V hanya dapat berfungsi sebagai penyedia bahan baku lokal.

Steel bridges are important structures in transportation infrastructure and should be

maintained and inspected regularly to maintain safety and smooth traffic. Bridge

Inspection Guideline No 01/P/BM/2022 provides guidance for engineers and structural

experts in conducting routine inspections and evaluations of steel bridges. This study aims

to evaluate maintenance costs with Bridge Inspection Guidelines No 01/P/BM/2022 in

detecting damage and defects in steel bridges. The research method used was data analysis

from the results of the examination of steel bridges on the Wai Boyan bridge, Seith State,

which used the seguidelines as a reference. The results showed that Bridge Inspection

Guideline No. 01/P/BM/2022 was effective in detecting damage to structural elements of

steel bridges such as wall holding soil , girders, bolts, and beams, with maintenance costs

of Rp. 988,736,000. In conclusion, Bridge Inspection Guideline No 01/P/BM/2022 can be

a useful reference for structural experts in inspecting and evaluating steel bridges.

However, the seguidelines need to be constantly updated and adapted to technological

developments and changing environmental conditions so as to ensure the safety and

reliability of steel bridges in the long run
Far-right localism as an environmental strategy in France
Authors: Benoist Lise
Published: November 2023

This paper discusses the promotion of localism as an environmental strategy by actors on the French far right. Far-right localism constitutes an example of mutating far-right ecological discourses on the denialism-ecofascism spectrum that further promotes far-right ideology under a ‘green’ banner. In this commentary I use empirical examples from the far right in France to show how this localism, which advocates a nativist rootedness in an exclusionary local, is upheld as a prerequisite for effective environmentalism. Such a strategy mobilises a reactionary conceptualisation of place that defends an exclusionary attachment to the local environment. Far-right localism feeds and revolves around an identitarian, naturalist and organicist conception of ecology typical of far-right ecologies, as well as the wish to supplant the left/right divide with a global/local one. This paper brings into conversation the fields of human geography and the political ecologies of the far right to contribute to a better understanding of constructed meanings of place by far-right actors in the context of climate change and ecological degradation. It furthermore encourages scholars across fields to keep investigating and disentangling complex affinities between ideologies of nature, identity (re-)production, belonging and resistance in conceptualisations and meanings of place.

Il nomoteta e il medico. Su Crat. 394a5-b7
Authors: Delle Donne Carlo
Published: November 2023

L’articolo prende in esame la pagina 394 (ed. Stephanus) del Cratilo platonico, per mettere in evidenza la rete di analogie che intercorre tra la produzione delle parole e la medicina antica. In particolare, oltre alle evidenze linguistiche, che testimoniano dell’intento allusivo, da parte di Platone, alla riflessione e alla lingua della medicina, viene analizzato anche il medesimo modello esplicativo sotteso all’analisi delle parole e dei farmaci: identità sostanziale (dynamis) e fattori secondari di differenziazione (ta prosonta) spiegano perché solo il medico e il filosofo (del quale il nomoteta è una controfigura) sono capaci di conoscere, elaborare e impiegare efficacemente, rispettivamente, farmaci e parole.

The subject matter of research is the routing of requests in the microservice architecture. The goal of the article is to develop a target design concept for the level of request routing in the microservice architecture using the Spring technology stack as an example. Tasks: to analyse modern approaches to the structure of microservice architecture; programming of the routing entity and establishment of processes that ensure the routing of requests; programming stacks of Spring technologies that implement routing; design the routing layer of the application on the Spring platform. The following methods are used: analysis and synthesis to study technologies of interaction between services; abstraction and generalization to determine the structure of the microservice architecture, routing level, generalization of technologies that ensure interaction between services; modelling for the purpose of building a model of microservice architecture, highlighting the level of routing and connections with other structural models. The following results were obtained: the structure of the microservice architecture was investigated, in particular the level of routing; the role of design patterns that provide routing is defined: Service discovery, API Gateway, Load Balancer, etc.; the types of interprocess interaction (synchronous, asynchronous, hybrid) were analysed and the advantages and expediency of the application were determined; models of system fault tolerance are presented; a stack of technologies on the Spring platform is defined for the implementation of the routing layer; a model of a multi-level microservice architecture project was developed using the Spring technology stack, which implements the most effective solutions in the context of request routing. Conclusions: it is advisable to consider microservice architecture as a multi-level structure built on functional levels and connections between them; the level of microservices routing should include all processes related to the establishment of interprocess interaction, service detection, load balancing and fault tolerance, and the creation of a single entry point; Spring is a popular microservice architecture development tool platform that provides requirements for implementing request routing; the developed project model is an example of effective solutions for designing a multi-level architecture using the Spring technology stack in the context of request routing.
