[Ex]traction Earth: The New Frontier
Authors: Martyn Jesse
Published: February 2022

New avenues of interconnectivity born from global crisis foster a return to the land and a decentralization of Earth’s population. Climate-induced northern migration sparks boundary expansion beyond our perceivable atmosphere, as human-made infrastructure grapples with the natural environment. Territories of [ex]traction fuel the lifeblood of the 21st century energy-scape.

The site for this investigation is Canada’s carbon corridor, spanning from Calgary to Edmonton, Grand Prairie to the remote north. A land scarred by resource exploitation is re-envisioned in a time after oil, in the not so distant future. Territories of extraction are rejuvenated as a renewable energy corridor. A super energy grid is laid across the landscape, linking major urban nodes by coupling the natural environment with infrastructure. Field’s within the super grid are dedicated to agricultural production, pollination, and wildlife incubators. These feed natural ecosystems while simultaneously fueling a network of high-speed trains that extend to the arctic circle, where new trade routes open up due to receding ice and warming climates.

A continuous mixed-use bridge structure links people to major hubs as a path for production. Human life is elevated so wildlife may roam freely on the land—reducing harmful impacts to natural ecosystems. Pipelines become long range carbon sequestering systems that distribute green energy to cities, landscapes, wildlife, and insects. Energy beacons are sprinkled across the land to assist birds with natural migration patterns while also acting as habitats for bees.

This proposal supports humans, wildlife, and insects through closed-loop systems of energy production that equally prioritizes all living organisms through harvesting of natural resources with minimal environmental impacts and an appreciation for the land. Born from a deep respect for the Earth’s natural resources and the cyclical nature of the environment, this proposal sparks a return to the organic. All organisms of the earth are part of a necessary ecosystem that may be deemed one wholistic being. Designers have an obligation to consider systems for wildlife that empower us to reframe what it means to be a living organism. A colony collapse for the bees means a doomed future for humans. So please, save the bees.
Scaling the Imagination: The Creation of the Subject-Object Divide in Visual Perception and Landscapes
Authors: Bourne Charles
Published: February 2022

This paper unpacks the history of seeing and the separation of subjectivity from objectivity in order to establish a framework for landscape and architectural design interventions on large scales. As perception shifted from an act of subjective creation of meaning to one operating under the auspices of empiricism, a chasm opened between the observer and the observed. Instead of locating the meaning of the observed object within the subject, perception for Moderns became an act of describing the world as-is. The resulting proliferation of descriptions of large-scale, interrelated ecological and urban systems became unintelligible to the human imagination, becoming metaphorical “giants” in our cultural and artistic realms. In the process, the world has became both more distant and seemingly more conquerable. The author suggests confronting the limits of the imagination through exercises in scales in order to negotiate the increasing distance between subject (human observers) and object (the natural and built world).
No East No West
Authors: Dashti Sepideh
Published: February 2022

No East, No West is a slogan, that was formulated at the beginning of the governing of the Islamic Republic of Iran (1979).  The slogan addresses the state’s rejection of the influence of both Soviet and American Powers in Iran, and its intention to establish an independent government. The current Iranian political regime has assigned sets of rules such as compulsory hijab for women corresponding to their ideology of being powerful and independent. This leads to marginalizing and violating many women’s rights in Iran.
Reframing Timelines: Daniel David Moses and Indigenous Wonderworks in the 1980s
Authors: Goodfellow Kirstie
Published: February 2022

Indigenous speculative fiction was conceptualized and produced in the late twentieth century, engaging with themes related to the modern Indigenous political movement that was occurring at the same time including decolonization, education, and resistance to settler-colonialism.  In Canada, the late twentieth century experienced a cultural boom of Indigenous art in response to the pan-Indigenous political movement that enveloped the nation in the 1960s-1990s. Daniel David Moses's The Dreaming Beauty is an early example of Indigenous Wonderworks, situated within the broader framework of Indigenous Futurisms.  The Dreaming Beauty reveals three things.  The depth and complexity of Indigenous Futurist art; the presence of Wonderworks in the twentieth century; and the connections between Indigenous Wonderworks and the wider modern Indigenous political movement of the late twentieth century.

Research in the field of finance related to corporate social responsibility is an interesting topic in increasing the CSR disclosure of manufacturing companies. The influence of the importance of policies and actions Environmental performance, profitability, company size and public ownership can increase the disclosure of CSR responsibility for manufacturing companies on the IDX in 2015-2018. This research is related to the manufacturing industry because it has the largest number of companies than other types of industries that are sensitive to the general public and the influence of company stakeholder trust. The results show that it is very important for manufacturing companies to support CSR by environmental performance, profitability, company size and joint public ownership. The results in this study indicate that the disclosure of CSR in manufacturing companies listed on the IDX in 2015-2018 requires an antecedent for the greater the size of the antecedent, the more extensive the CSR disclosure that will be carried out. This confirms the agency theory of research which explains that the bigger a company is, the greater its CSR costs. But the results show that the profitability is not significant in increasing endogenous. So that further research includes financial literacy variables to increase the CSR of manufacturing companies. Practical research implications for stakeholders who get the good news that the company's CSR will increase the height of the work relationship, therefore it is very important for companies to expand and increase CSR for the sustainability of manufacturing companies

Learning Outcomes Assessment Formats in Georgia after USSR
Authors: Gogiashvili Shorena
Published: February 2022

The system of higher education in Georgia has been recently facing major challenges, especially in matching its outcomes to market and society demands. As the job market is becoming more globally competitive, these challenges are increasing.

To survive in the current business world, there is high competition between companies for highly qualified manpower. Higher education systems are, on the other hand, traditionally considered conservative and slow in response to market needs.

HEIs have many stakeholders: parents, students, faculty members, graduates, employees, regulatory organizations, and government. Their expectations are different and often are in conflict with one another in many respects. Multi-stakeholder involvement in the assessment of learning outcomes is essential to realize students’ achievements. In these processes participation, collaboration and learning are emphasized. Participation leads to the perfect rating of the process and better evaluations of the outcomes.

The assessment of students/graduates by stakeholders is shaped by their participation in activities and their experiences in the processes. Understanding stakeholder importance in the processes in which they are involved and their evaluation of outcomes is imperative; it influences the current and future levels of engagement and improvement.

The design parameters of the automotives not only affect the ride comfort but also affect the durability of vehicle structures, especially in the low frequency region. To enhance the automotive performance, a quarter dynamic model of automotive is used to establish the vibration equations in the time region. The vibration equations in the time region are then transformed to the frequency region based on the Laplace transformation to calculate the amplitude-frequency and acceleration-frequency characteristics of automotives. The effect of the design parameters of the automotive and suspension system such as the damping coefficient, stiffness coefficient, and mass of the automotive are then simulated and analyzed, respectively. The research result shows that both the amplitude-frequency and acceleration-frequency responses of the automotive are remarkably affected by the design parameters of the automotives in the frequency region. To improve the ride comfort and enhance the structural durability of the automotive, during the automotive design, the damping coefficient needs to enhance while both the stiffness coefficient and automotive mass needs to be optimized to reduce both the resonance amplitudes and resonant frequencies of the automotive.

Postoperative ventral hernia: characteristics of researching the results of prevention and surgical treatment
Authors: Abdullozoda J. A. , Shamsullozoda Sh. N.
Published: February 2022

Aim. To assess the methodological quality of non-randomized interventional studies of the outcomes of prevention and surgical treatment of postoperative ventral hernias using a systematic approach.

Material and methods. We searched the indexed literature for non-randomized studies of VН surgery from January 1995 to December 2019. Each prospective study was combined with a corresponding retrospective study using predefined criteria to obtain comparable groups. The assessment of the following components was conducted: the choices of research methods, their rationale, design, inclusion criteria, reported results, and statistical methods

Results and discussion. 50 studies (17,608 patients) were selected: 25 prospective and 25 retrospective. In general, prospective studies showed slightly higher methodological quality scores than retrospective studies, with a mean score of 17 (IQR: 14-18) versus 15 (IQR 12-18). The studied subcategories of prospective studies obtained higher median scores for their “administration”, “design” and “participants”. 18 (36%) studies had a primary outcome, and only 2 studies (4%) described research power. None of the studies mentioned a standardized definition of VH recurrence, while methods for detecting recurrence varied widely. The methodological quality of the study did not depend on the year of publication or the increase in the impact factor of the magazine.

Conclusion. Currently, non-randomized interventional studies of the results of surgical treatment of VH are methodologically ineffective. A clearer analysis of the research results and the establishment of a minimum standardized set of data is necessary.

Contribution of the British To Develop Indian English Literature

Published: January 2022

Development of Indian English Literature in India gathered momentum with the consolidation of British imperialism in India. As we know the British sow the seed of Indian Writing in English during the period of the British rule in India. English language and literature in India starts with the advent of East India Company in India. It all started in the summers of 1608 when Emperor Jahangir, in the courts of Mughals, welcomed Captain William Hawkins, Commander of British Naval Expedition Hector. It was India's first tryst with an Englishman and English. Jahangir later allowed Britain to open a permanent port and factory on the special request of King James IV that was conveyed by his ambassador Sir Thomas Roe. English were here to stay. Indian writings in English were heavily influenced by the Western art form of the novel. It was typical for the early Indian English language writers to use English unadulterated by Indian words to convey experiences that were primarily Indian. The core reason behind this step was the fact that most of the readers were either British or British educated Indians. In the early 20th century, when the British conquest of India was achieved, a new breed of writers started to emerge on the block. These writers were essentially British who were born or brought up or both in India. Their writing consisted of Indian themes and sentiments but the way of storytelling was primarily western. They had no reservation in using native words, though, to signify the context. This group consisted likes of Rudyard Kipling, Jim Corbett, and George Orwell among others. In fact, some of the writings of that era are still considered to be masterpieces of English Literature. KEYWORDS: Contribution of British, Development, British works & strategy, English Literature.

Government usually spend huge amount of money when embarking on census in other to know the population of the people living in a community. Also, despite the huge amount of money government invest on census; some of the areas are not captured. This study is aimed at the use of Mathematical models to project the future population of Wukari Local Government Area which will determine how government can embark on conducting census at a reduced or minimized cost. Data were collected form the Statistical Year Book of Taraba State. The data spanned from 2006 to 2016. The following models; Malthusian model; Arithmetic and Geometric model were used in the projection of the population of Wukari Local Government Area from 2016 to 2040. The results show that Malthusian model has minimum error compared to the Arithmetic and Geometric models.

In this paper, we report a number of atypical features of superconductivity, weak ferromagnetism, and quantum transport observed at low temperatures at bicrystalline interfaces of the first predicted and experimentally realized three-dimensional topological insulator (3D TI) Bi1xSbx (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2). Pure bicrystals and bicrystals slightly doped (≤0.01 at %) with Te (donor) and Sn (acceptor) impurities are used to fully satisfy the conditions of manifestation of transport quantum oscillations. These 3D TI interfaces exhibit fascinating quantum topological properties, which require extensive basic and applied research.

The magnetic properties of the nano-width bicrystal interfaces (CIs) of Bi, Sb and 3D topological insulator Bi1xSbx (0.06 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) are studied in a temperature range of 1.6–300 K. These materials do not show superconductivity under normal rhombohedral conditions and are anomalous diamagnetics. At the same time, two superconducting phases with Tc ≤ 21 K and magnetic hysteresis loops against a diamagnetic background typical for strong type II superconductors are identified in Bi interfaces. At the CIs of Bi1xSbx (0.06 ≤ x ≤ 0.2), as well as Sb, a superconducting transition and a ferromagnetic hysteresis loop or a dual loop (superimposed ferromagnetic and superconducting loops) against a paramagnetic background are observed; they indicate the simultaneous occurrence of superconductivity and weak ferromagnetism, which is specific to 3D topological insulators. The revealed coexistence of superconductivity and weak magnetism at these CIs is of significant interest for the fundamental physics and future applications in quantum computing and spintronic devices.

Published: January 2022

A brief review on birefringence and optical filters based on CuGaxAl1-xS2 and CuGaxAl1-xSe2 crystals is given in this paper. Two types of isotropic points are analyzed; one of them refers to a case when the wavelength at which the ordinary and extraordinary refractive indices are equal is situated near the absorption edge, while in the second case the isotropic wavelength is in the region of crystal transparency. It is shown that both of them can be used for the development of band-pass and band-reject filters. The possibility of adjusting the spectral position of an isotropic point by changing the chemical composition of a solid solution is illustrated, and the applicability of CuGaxAl1-xS2 and CuGaxAl1-xSe2 for adjusting the isotropic point to most of Ar+, Kr+, He–Ne, and He–Cd gas lasers lines, as well as to semiconductor lasers, is revealed
Effect of aging, temperature, and ambient gases on the complex impedance of As2Te13Ge8S3 glassy films

Published: January 2022

The work is focused on the application of the impedance spectroscopy method to provide evidence and study the effects of aging, temperature, and gas adsorption in chalcogenide-based thin films. The experiments are carried out with thin films of glassy quaternary composition As2Te13Ge8S3 in a wide frequency range at different temperatures under different environmental conditions, in particular, either dry or wet air or their mixtures with NO2 or CO2. It is found that aging has a significant effect on the impedance spectra of Pt–As2Te13Ge8S3–Pt functional structures, which make evidence for the presence of substantial spatial and compositional disordering. This effect can be stabilized by the post-preparation annealing of the sample. The effect of temperature on impedance spectra consists in a variation in the both real and imaginary parts of impedance that appear to be extremely sensitive to adsorptive processes. Adsorption of nitrogen dioxide results in a significant frequency-dependent decrease in the impedance parameters, which is attributed to an effective “strong” chemisorption process due to the interaction of "odd" electrons of NO2 molecules with lone pair electrons of chalcogen atoms. The effect of water vapors leads only to an increase in the real part of impedance, while the imaginary part abruptly decreases; this fact is attributed to a “weak” form of chemisorption. The effect of carbon dioxide on the impedance spectra is attributed to the physical adsorption of CO2 molecules. This effect is weak; however, it is reversible and clearly observed even at room temperature.

The conventional measurement signal sample-and-hold amplifier comprising a sample and hold circuit in the form of a sample switch, a voltage hold capacitor, and a voltage repeater further includes two similar sample-and-hold circuits of reference voltages. The idea of the proposed amplifier is that hold capacitors are equally discharged in all three sample-and-hold circuits. Therefore, an affine ratio for the stored three voltage samples does not change the intrinsic value over a long discharge time. Then, this invariant affine ratio is taken as the measuring signal. A reproducing (recovery) unit, which is also included, calculates this affine ratio. In turn, the included information signal former shaper pre-converts (prepares) the initial measurement signal using reference voltages. Thus, the hold time is significantly increased, while maintaining a short sample time for the given hold capacitor. On the other hand, the affine ratio uses differences and voltage ratios. Therefore, offset errors are mutually reduced. It is possible to implement the proposed sample-and-hold amplifier in the form of an analog chip based on a multiplier and the known multi-channel sample-and-hold amplifier.

In this paper, the design of a system for the control of a solar panel motion by means of a servomotor based on an Arduino board is described. The system calculates optimum tracks and position of the sun to ensure that the solar panel is always directed to the sun in order to increase the amount of energy generated by the solar panel. The device makes use of four solar modules for detection and a servomotor to automatically rotate the solar panel to adjust it to the sun position
When Looms Begin to Weave by Themselves: The Decomposition of Capitalism, Automation and the Problem of “Modern Slavery”
Authors: Lamas Bruno
Published: January 2022

Aristotle once said that if looms were to weave by themselves masters would not need slaves. The historical trajectory of capitalism seems to place humanity in the exact opposite situation: on the one hand, the accelerated scientific development of the productive forces and the rise of automation processes, on the other hand, a diversification and intensification on a worldwide scale of forms of “unfree labour,” often classified as “modern slavery.” Several studies have approached these phenomena as remnants of “pre-capitalism;” others see them as moments of an “ongoing primitive accumulation;” still others interpret them as extreme cases of “fully functional capitalism” or “neoliberal capitalism.” In this paper the author intends (i) to show the different theoretical problems of these approaches and (ii) to argue that the phenomena of “modern slavery” are more adequately understood through a perspective of global decomposition of capitalism, a process that began with the third industrial revolution of microelectronics and is now accelerating with the emerging automation, intensifying a violent logic of demobilization of labour power and containment of “superfluous” populations.
“Performing Freedom: Strategies of Escaping Slavery in Southern Cities, 1810–1860”
Authors: Pargas Damian Alan
Published: January 2022

“Performing Freedom” examines the attempts by enslaved African Americans living in the nineteenth-century US South to escape slavery by fleeing to towns and cities within the slaveholding states and disguising themselves as free blacks. Going to great lengths to “look” and “act” free—often even acquiring forged free papers—thousands of enslaved people “passed for free” in urban areas with large free black communities. Such strategies of escape underscore the importance of visibility to the successful development of slavery as an institution, and reveal how enslaved people attempted to erase visible markers of enslavement to live in freedom.
