Utilizing Semantic Segmentation to Analyse Google Street View Imagery for Health-Oriented Urban Planning
Authors: Qi Siyi
Published: December 2024

After the onset of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the public health benefits of urban green space (UGS) have attracted increased attention. In exposure science, visibility has been considered a fundamental category for assessing green space exposure, yet evaluations in Denmark rarely address it. This study uses Copenhagen Municipality as a case study to explore the Green View Index (GVI) by analyzing Google Street View (GSV) images using semantic segmentation. The main findings include: (1) a GVI mean of 15.05% within Copenhagen Municipality, ranking below the average of six other European cities, and (2) a map showing the spatial distribution of GVI in the study area. Additionally, this paper considers the potential and possibilities of using street view imagery in future urban health studies.
Perception Of Time In The Eucharistic Canon Of The Armenian Apostolic Church
Authors: Shirinyan Arusyak
Published: December 2024

The article examines the relationships between the studies on time and eternity in ancient philosophy and some prayers of the liturgical texts of the Eucharistic Canon of the AAC. Liturgical texts, such as church hymns, prayers and mainly the texts of the anaphora, reflect not only theological but also philosophical views, especially in the issue of perception and development of understanding of historical time in the medieval era. The philosophy of postmodernism, tracing its genesis to antiquity, for a long time ignored liturgical texts as an object for philosophical research, thereby determining their place on the periphery. As a rule, these texts are studied within the framework of linguistics and archaeography, and are also partly used as a historical source.1 The partial exclusion of liturgical prayers from Western philosophical discourse is associated with such historical phenomena as early Renaissance humanism, the Protestant Reformation and the history of early modern literature. Thus, the basis of the modern selective approach to philosophical texts is a stable position regarding the forms of knowledge traditionally considered philosophical.2 Nevertheless, a philosophical analysis of a sacred text is possible, in particular in the systemically presented process of transformation of the perception of cyclical time into linear and in the formation of the concept of eschatological orientation.

Authors: Petoyan Styopa
Published: December 2024

In March 4, 1882 in Shushi was opened the local branch of the Caucasian Armenian Charitable Society (henceforth, CACS) aimed at the development of educational and cultural activities of population. The productive functioning of the Society lasted until 1899-1900 when the library-reading room at Shushi was closed. The library-reading room played a significant role in the activities of the Shushi branch of the Caucasian Armenian Charitable Society, which made the Armenian society a communicator not only of Armenian but also of world literature. Owing to periodicals, the reading room was one of the main sources of information for the local society. The library-reading room, in the short period of its activity (March 10, 1889 - January 1, 1900) managed to become the most important educational and cultural center of Shushi.

Study of LOM Additive Manufacturing Process in Pattern Making Application
Authors: S B Chandrashekharaiah , Vinaya Vinaya , Taj Khamar
Published: December 2024

Additive Manufacturing Process is a recent development in industry to help and solve the
problems and limitations of traditional prototyping methods. of course, "rapid" is a relative term. The term
rapid prototyping refers to a class of technologies that can automatically construct physical models from
computer aided Design (CAD) data. RP allows the designers to quickly create tangible prototypes that ere
subtractive in nature. In addition to prototypes, RP techniques can also be used to make tooling and even
production-quality parts. For small production runs and complicated objects, rapid prototyping is often the
best manufacturing process available. The adoption of rapid prototyping (RP) techniques within the pattern
making and foundry industry has necessitated a complete overhaul of skills requirements within the industry.
The ever increasing, and soon to be universal, use of CAD by designers, even at prototype stage, has given
the production of RP models a distinct advantage over conventional techniques. CAD data can be utilized
directly by RP machines to generate a part, thus ensuring an exact replica, without the errors introduced by
manual interpretation of drawings, is produced. This revolution has certainly cost jobs and is permanently
eroding the skill base of pattern and model making, but only those who can adapt to the new methods of
working will survive. Flexibility to give short lead times from CAD model to finished part are the main
criteria for success and the prototype pattern maker, with adaptation, can play a vital role in this process.

Authors: M Vayusutha , N Nischitha , A S Archana , Abhishek Abhishek , T Sindhu
Published: December 2024

The increasing demand for effective and precise
medical care has necessitated the development of advanced
systems in healthcare. One of the critical aspects of patient care
is the accurate and continuous monitoring of intravenous (IV)
fluid administration, which is vital for managing hydration,
drug delivery, and electrolyte balance in patients. Traditional
IV fluid management systems are prone to human error,
inaccuracies, and inefficiencies. This paper proposes the design
and implementation of a Smart IV Fluid Control System based
on Internet of Things (IoT) technology, which enhances the
automation, monitoring, and control of IV fluid administration.
The system integrates sensors, microcontrollers, and IoT
connectivity to enable real-time monitoring of IV fluid levels,
flow rates, and other critical parameters. The proposed system
provides remote access for healthcare professionals, allowing
them to track the progress and adjust settings remotely, which
improves operational efficiency, reduces errors, and enhances
patient safety. Key features include automated flow rate
adjustments, alerts for anomalies (such as blockages or air
bubbles), and data logging for patient history and treatment
analysis. Additionally, the system incorporates machine
learning algorithms to predict fluid requirements based on
patient demographics, clinical data, and real-time conditions.
The proposed IoT-based Smart IV Fluid Control System
represents a significant advancement over conventional manual
methods, offering both operational benefits for healthcare
providers and improved safety for patients. The system aims to
reduce human intervention, ensure more precise fluid delivery,
and provide comprehensive data for better patient care.

Authors:   IndoSpace Publications, Journal IJSREM
Published: December 2024

In recent decades, the number of foreign students enrolled in Indian colleges has increased significantly. The All-
India Survey of Higher Education (AISHE) (2021–2022) reports that there were around 47,000 international

students enrolled in Indian colleges overall in 2021–2022, a 2% decrease from the year before. Of the 170 nations
that sent students, Nepal sent the most (29%), followed by Afghanistan (8%), the United States (7%), Bangladesh
(5%), the United Arab Emirates (4%), and Bhutan (2%). Approximately 75% of international students are enrolled
in undergraduate programs, with business administration, science, engineering, and technology being the most
popular disciplines for this demographic. Given the number of international students studying in the India, 15.5%
of them are Africans, with the majority hailing from Nigeria, Tanzania Zimbabwe, Lesotho and Sudan. This study
aims to investigate how overseas students, particularly African students, perceive the republic of India, which is
sometimes referred to as the country of opportunity abroad. Many people think that local Indian company owners
who wish to widen their horizons in the world, especially in Africa, can do so through African international
students. Using auto-ethnographic research, this study examined the various academic and social difficulties
encountered by international students in Indian universities in order to identify potential solutions. In order to
identify and classify some of the difficulties faced by international students, this qualitative research approach
employed the author's sequential auto ethnographic experience as a research tool. The researcher hopes that the
research's conclusions will serve as a manual for future generations of foreign students hoping to study in India.

In this research, researchers aspire to examine the theory of whether there is a cash flow effect on stock changes. Stock returns which are used as stock measurement tools are a reflection of market reactions to what happens within the company in terms of fundamentals. Therefore, to measure the fundamental factors that exist within the company researchers utilise operating cash flow. Operating cash flow is seen as being able to represent because operating cash flow data exists in every company. Moreover, hence that the comparison is balanced the researchers choose to use the population of companies in the LQ 45 area. After being tested using simple linear regression, the results are as previously thought that there are influences on the company's Fundamental factors which in this study is the Operating Cash Flow with market factors which in this study represented by Stock Return.
Good things come in small packages: how to curate a micromount collection
Authors: Gabriel Nadine
Published: December 2024

In 2015, the Natural History Museum in London (NHM) received a donation of 2424 mineral specimens from the late Trevor Bridges (1935–2015) who was a chemist, mineral collector and prominent member of the Russell Society and the British Micromount Society. The bulk of this donation consists of micromounts, which are small mineral specimens that require a microscope for proper examination and are mounted inside a box. The small size of micromounts has many benefits: a large collection does not occupy much storage space, the minute crystals tend to be better formed compared to larger ones, and they can reveal a wealth of mineralogical information. Alongside the descriptive micromount box labels, Trevor’s personal spreadsheet database provides a wealth of mineral species and locality information, making this diverse British collection particularly scientifically significant and valuable. It is the first specific micromount collection curated at the NHM. Curation of this collection involved writing mineral descriptions, cleaning up specimen data for import into the collection management system (Axiell EMu), and devising creative methods to store almost 2000 micromount boxes of varying sizes in Bisley cabinets while balancing both specimen safety and browsability. This paper will explore how curation methods and approaches were continually tested and refined, and provide a statistical summary of this collection and its history.

Published: December 2024

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the most crucial cereal globally and serves as a vital source of zinc (Zn) for individuals whose diets are primarily rice-based. To improve the Zn content in rice, it is essential to gain a deeper understanding of how plants absorb and distribute zinc internally. This research investigated how different rates of soil Zn fertilization (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 kg Zn ha−1) impacted the growth, yield, zinc uptake, and remobilization in the non-aromatic rice genotype '10/B-2-1', cultivated in Zn-deficient soil. The findings indicated that zinc application had a notable influence on rice yield and related parameters, except for the tiller count per plant and panicle length. The concentration and accumulation of zinc at both anthesis and maturity showed significant increases, particularly at higher zinc rates (9, 12, and 15 kg Zn ha−1) compared to the control. Over 85% of the zinc accumulated at maturity came from uptake prior to anthesis. Additionally, the efficiency of zinc remobilization dropped from 22.28% in the control to 10.88% at the highest zinc application of 15 kg Zn ha−1. The proportion of grain zinc derived from remobilization significantly decreased from 65.66% to 40.29% as zinc levels rose from 0 to 15 kg Zn ha−1, highlighting the critical role of post-anthesis uptake in grain Zn loading when zinc availability is higher. Moreover, it was evident that post-anthesis uptake was the principal source of grain Zn when AB-DTPA extractable zinc concentrations exceeded 1.0 mg kg−1, while pre-anthesis remobilization prevailed at lower soil zinc concentrations. The results of study warrant further investigations involving larger number of genotypes on diverse soil types.
Lo "fantástico" de Borges: epistemología y ontología patafísica y anárquica
Authors: Grzesiak Zofia
Published: December 2024

Este trabajo ofrece una interpretación del carácter fantástico de la obra de Jorge Luis Borges en el marco de la patafísica. Los elementos fantásticos de Borges son descritos como parte de un proyecto artístico más amplio, cuya filosofía debe describirse como un tipo de patafísica particular, basada en el surracionalismo. Dentro de esta matriz general, lo fantástico funciona como una herramienta discursiva epistemológica y ontológica, a la vez que crítica y subversiva. Nuestra interpretación consta de tres elementos: el debate acerca de la relación de Borges con lo fantástico, la descripción de la patafísica y el análisis de la «filosofía fantástica» y el «igualitarismo ontológico» de ideas en Borges propuesto por Stanisław Lem. El corolario ideológico de este debate es una reflexión sobre el anarquismo idiosincrático del autor de Ficciones.

O uso de LEDs, como fonte de radiação no cultivo de plantas, tem despertado considerável interesse nos últimos anos, por estes também possuírem vasto potencial para a aplicação comercial. O gênero Hypericum L. é o maior da família Hypericaceae, possuindo 500 espécies distribuídas mundialmente. Neste táxon, destacam-se H. cavernicola L.B.Sm e H. teretiusculum A.St.-Hil. As espécies desse gênero têm despertado interesse por parte de cientistas e indústria devido ao potencial fitoterápico relacionado às suas atividades antibacteriana, antifúngica, antiangiogênica, inseticida, anticancerígena, antioxidante citotóxica, antinociceptiva, antidepressiva, entre outros. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito de diferentes comprimentos de luz LED sobre o desenvolvimento in vitro das espécies H. cavernícola e H. teretiusculum. O estudo, conduzido no Laboratório de Biotecnologia e Recursos Genéticos da Embrapa Amazônia Oriental, utilizou explantes de plantas micropropagadas in vitro. Os explantes (segmento nodal), medindo aproximadamente 1 cm, foram inoculados em frascos de 250 mL contendo 30 mL de meio MS (Murashige e Skoog, 1962). Os meios foram suplementados com sacarose (30,0 g.L-1), o pH foi ajustado a 5,7 ± 0,1 e em seguida gelificados com ‘Phytagel’ (3,0 g.L-1). Após a inoculação, os frascos foram acondicionados em uma sala com temperatura de 25 ± 1°C em 4 diferentes comprimentos de onda: LED branca: tratamento 1: 26 μmol.m-2.s-1, LED verde: tratamento 2: 15 μmol.m-2.s-1, LED azul: tratamento 3: 23 μmol.m-2.s-1, LED amarelo: tratamento 4: 13 μmol.m-2.s-1. O fotoperíodo foi de 12 horas/dia. Durante 120 dias, as alturas das plântulas e o número de brotos foram mensalmente avaliados. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado (DIC). A diferença das amostras foi calculada com a utilização do software BioEstat versão 5.3. Na avaliação da variável altura após 120 dias, para espécie H. cavernícola os tratamentos com melhores desempenho foram os tratamentos verde (média 5,51 cm) e azul (média 5,17 cm), já para H. teretiusculum o tratamento de destaque foi o verde (média 6,72 cm). Quanto ao número de brotos ao final de 120 dias, para espécie H. cavernícola os tratamentos que melhor performaram foram os tratamentos branco (média 6,33 brotos) e azul (média 6,00 brotos), enquanto para H. teretiusculum não teve diferença estatística. Para os teores de clorofila e carotenoides os diferentes comprimentos de onda influenciaram esses parâmetros, fato observado em ambas as espécies.

Published: December 2024

Trunk muscle fatigue could influence the dynamic control of the lower limbs in runners, and the single-leg drop-landing (SLDL) test could simulate the landing and reveal those changes. This study compared the effect of trunk muscle fatigue on the kinematic and electromyographic patterns of the lower limb during SLDL in female novice runners. The kinematics of the main joints and electromyographic (EMG) of the main muscles of the lower limb during SLDL pre- and post-fatigue muscle trunk were registered in 18 female novice runners. The integrated EMG (iEMG) was calculated into 3 phases (F1, before movement starts; F2, eccentric; and F3, concentric). There was an increase in the tibialis anterior and soleus mean iEMG in F1, a reduction in tibialis anterior (TA) and gastrocnemius medialis (GM) maximum iEMG in F2, and an increase in the biceps femoris (BF) minimal iEMG in F2. Also, we found a reduced ankle angle, increased hip angle in the sagittal plane, and a reduced knee angle in the frontal plane post-intervention. The induction of trunk muscle fatigue in female novice runners influenced the TA, SO, GM, and BF EMG changes, the kinematic pattern of the ankle and hip in the sagittal plane, and the knee in the frontal plane during the SDLD.

Published: December 2024

O desenvolvimento da sociedade moderna tem provocado várias consequências negativas para o meio ambiente, especialmente em relação à qualidade da água. Esse estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a influência antrópica na qualidade da água do lago municipal na cidade de Cascavel-PR, buscando indícios de comprometimento da qualidade da água neste manancial de abastecimento. Para tal, foi realizado o monitoramento da água em oito pontos do lago municipal, em três coletas, em que foram avaliados os parâmetros físico-químicos: matéria orgânica, carbono orgânico dissolvido, nitrogênio amoniacal, nitrogênio orgânico, nitrito, nitrato, fósforo, ortofosfato, oxigênio dissolvido e turbidez. Para compreensão da variação dos dados foi empregada análise estatística em que os valores máximo, mínimo, média, desvio padrão e coeficiente de variação foram identificados, como também foi empregada análise estatística multivariada por meio de análise de componentes principais e cálculo do coeficiente de correlação linear de Pearson entre as variáveis. Os resultados indicam que o lago municipal de Cascavel é um ambiente aquático equilibrado, com tendência à oligotrofia, possivelmente pelo baixo tempo de retenção hidráulica e pela limitada entrada de nutrientes dos rios que formam o lago. Não foram encontradas evidências de contaminação significativa por esgoto, ou valores elevados de matéria orgânica e nutrientes. Assim, não há indícios de impacto antrópico que comprometa a qualidade da água do lago para abastecimento.

The aim of this work is to determine the effect of lubrication of the AAO coating – EN-GJL-250 cast ironsliding association on the resistance to motion under different load. AAO (anodic aluminum oxide) coatingswere produced on the EN AW-5251 aluminum alloy through the electrochemical method, using constantmanufacturing parameters for all samples. Tribological tests were carried out in reciprocating motion on theT-17 tribological tester with a system for automatic lubrication of the friction node. Tests were carried out withperiodic oil mist lubrication of the friction node every 5, 10, and 15 minutes, and with continuous lubrication,carried out by immersing the friction pair in oil. Three values o f unit pressure were used: 0.5, 1, and 1.5 MPa.The conducted research proved that periodic lubrication of the tested friction node can be as effective ascontinuous lubrication. The tests also showed lower values o f the coefficient of friction (especially at a loadof 0.5 MPa) for periodic lubrication than for continuous lubrication, regardless of the load. The paper presentsthe results of tribological tests and the roughness of AAO coatings, before and after the tribological test. Theresults of tribological tests were supplemented with microscopic tests and statistical analysis.
Sobre parabólicas e coisas sem nome: a autocorpografia autista na poesia de Pedro de Lucena e Callum Brazzó
Authors: Rückert Gustavo Henrique
Published: December 2024

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar duas obras poéticas com traços autobiográficos: Parabólicas (2018), de Pedro de Lucena, e Movement: performance poetry written down (2019), de Callum Brazzó. Ambas foram escritas por autores autistas e apresentam o corpo como arquivo de convergência de memórias. A análise baseia-se no conceito de autocorpografia, cunhado por Adelaine LaGuardia (2014). Tal conceito, oriundo do estudo de autobiografias de pessoas transexuais, revela a necessidade de desconstrução do corpo textualizado pela literatura médica para, assim, reescrevê-lo coletivamente sob outros signos. A fundamentação teórica para o desenvolvimento do trabalho transita entre os Estudos Literários, os Estudos da Deficiência e os Estudos Culturais. Como resultado, observa-se que a apropriação da escrita autocorpográfica por meio de um gênero literário às margens do mercado editorial (a poesia) oferece uma alternativa à ideia do autismo como auto isolamento. A partir da livre manifestação de demandas sensoriais do corpo autista na poesia, Lucena e Brazzó reescrevem o corpo autista como um corpo em constante movimento, inapreensível em sua plenitude pela linguagem.
Paraboliques et choses sans nom : l’autocorpographie autiste dans la poésie de Pedro de Lucena et de Callum Brazzó

Cet article vise à analyser deux œuvres poétiques aux traits autobiographiques : Parabólicas (2018), de Pedro de Lucena, et Movement: performance poetry written down (2019), de Callum Brazzó. Toutes deux ont été écrites par des auteurs autistes et présentent le corps comme une archive où convergent les mémoires. L’analyse est basée sur le concept d’autocorpographie créé par Adelaine LaGuardia (2014). Ce concept, issu de l’étude des autobiographies de personnes transgenres, révèle la nécessité de déconstruire le corps textualisé par la littérature médicale afin de le réécrire collectivement sous d’autres signes. La base théorique de ce travail se situe entre les études littéraires, les études sur le handicap et les études culturelles. Il montre que l’appropriation de l’écriture autocorpographique à travers un genre littéraire en marge du marché de l’édition (la poésie) offre une alternative à l’idée de l’autisme comme auto-isolement. À partir de la libre manifestation de demandes sensorielles du corps autiste dans la poésie, Lucena et Brazzó réécrivent le corps autiste comme un corps en mouvement constant, insaisissable dans sa plénitude par le langage.

Cette étude vise à cerner le déploiement des corporalités et des alliances tissées entre ceux qui ont participé à la marche du handicap du 3 décembre 2019 dans la région métropolitaine du Chili. Une analyse visuelle a été réalisée au moyen de huit photographies sélectionnées et de notes de terrain pour l’interprétation des éléments visuels et contextuels du phénomène étudié. Sur la base des travaux de Judith Butler sur l’interdépendance et la lutte politique, nous avons interprété le mouvement des personnes handicapées à Santiago du Chili comme une lutte rassembleuse et intégratrice fondée sur les revendications pour une vie digne au coeur de la révolte sociale. Nous avons identifié trois catégories centrales pour l’analyse : « Corps assemblés », « Mettre le corps et prendre soin du corps », et « Luttes pour une vie digne à partir du handicap ». La marche des personnes handicapées partage des répertoires de protestation avec d’autres mouvements sociaux convergents dans le contexte de la révolte sociale au Chili. Cette étude présente également des éléments différenciateurs dans la construction et le déploiement de corporalités et d’assemblages corps-corps et corps-objet. Ces assemblages facilitent la participation des personnes handicapées dans l’espace public et subvertissent l’imaginaire des « objets de soins », en soulignant la condition ontologique de l’interdépendance de l’humanité.
Autismo, Deficiência e Neurodiversidade: Provocações para pensar um conceito disputado e seus efeitos em pesquisas no/a partir do Sul Global

Published: December 2024

Neste texto realizamos uma reflexão sobre as coproduções e as interseccionalidades das categorias “neurodiversidade” e “deficiência” na Academia e no Ativismo. Neste movimento, perguntamos como a categoria “neurodiversidade” está sendo pensada e materializada nas práticas de ativistas autistas, tendo como objetivo problematizar as concepções e reivindicações de direitos através da categoria ‘neurodiversidade’ que habilitem sua “antropofagia glocal”. A partir de uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema e da participação observante em pesquisas emancipatórias acadêmico-ativistas de autistas, buscamos conjugar um duplo movimento: tensionar críticas acadêmicas a partir de um movimento social de autistas; e tensionar críticas de ativistas globais a partir das articulações de um coletivo acadêmico-ativista no Brasil. Como contribuição ao debate, mostramos, na prática do coletivo, como o movimento ativista brasileiro aciona uma “identidade neurodiversa” como articuladora biopolítica de uma coletividade, ao mesmo tempo em que entende o autismo como “deficiência”, na chave do Modelo Social e dos Direitos Humanos, conceito que habita as principais legislações brasileiras sobre o tema.

This study examines the application of gamification in education, focusing on the advantages and obstacles of learning through educational games. The main objective of the research was to consider the main effects and barriers of gamification in the education scenario. The main goal was to examine gamification practices in preschool education in Brazil, highlighting the advantages obtained and the obstacles encountered. The technique used was a literature review, with a qualitative approach, which involved the analysis of materials already published, such as books, scientific articles, theses and official documents. The results showed that, even with remarkable progress in the application of gamification in education, significant challenges still persist, such as the formation of teachers' responsibilities and the adaptation of games to the educational environment. Gamification methods vary, including the use of digital and analog games, crafting entertaining stories, and applying reward systems. The study emphasized the relevance of a balanced strategy that takes into account both the pedagogical and playful elements of gamification. The final conclusions indicate that, even in the face of obstacles, gamification in education brings notable advantages, such as increased student engagement and motivation. It is crucial to invest in the training of educators, the creation of protective educational games, and the dissemination of a culture of playful learning for the success of these practices. The need for future research to complement the findings and investigate new gamification strategies in education was highlighted.
