A new approach to the definitions and relationships between evolution science, basic sciences and mathematics
Authors: Nasip DEMİRKUŞ
Published: June 2023

In the literature, there is also a lot of information and misconceptions about science, mathematics, evolution, the theory of evolution, and the science of evolution. However, there is no tidy and sufficient information about the definitions, and relationships between these concepts. These confusing reasons led me to do this research. Our information about the relationships between the concepts of science, mathematics, evolution science, creature, being and wisdom seems to have misconceptions and confusion. To clarify these, the definitions and relations of these concepts carefully studied from literature sources. Since the original definitions and relationships of these basic concepts were not made correctly, the concepts caused misunderstandings. Just as there are clear and accurate definitions of Cell, Cell Theory and Cell Science. The same logic carried out and used in concepts related to evolution science. Some concepts may have more than one correct definition. New original definitions and relationships of these concepts have been proposed to contribute to education. Math is the main face of science that expresses all the knowledge, events, facts, processes, creatures and relationships in science with symbols, writing, equations, sets and shapes. No branch of science can work without mathematics. If we accept science as a body, math is like its heart. However, mathematics can work alone without the need for other disciplines. Therefore, mathematics is like the heart of science and the common denominator of the sum of all other branches of science. Based on this logic, all branches of science except mathematics constitute the natural, cultural and life interface of science. The evolutionary interface of science expresses the real- life story of all the changes in science. What is the common denominator of the positions, definitions and relationships of mathematics, evolution and science? What are the relationships between the concepts of being and creature and science, mathematics, evolution science and wisdom? The answers to these questions has been the solution to our problem sentences.
Effect of wind on RC structure resting on sloping ground and analysis done using ETABS software
Authors: Shreya Manduskar  , V. S. Shingade
Published: June 2023

Wind load is one of the common loads for civil engineering structures viz. for long span bridges, tall buildings, towers and mast structures also. Wind load is acting on such structure throughout its life span. Therefore it is most important phenomenon to be taken into consideration for a structural engineer. Due to scarcity of land or due to mountainous terrains in North and North-East part of India most of the time structures are constructed on sloping grounds which is a challenge for structural engineer for analysis and design. These structures are also directly subjected to wind loads. India is also having large records of earthquake which left behind loss of many lives and heavy destruction to property and economy. Analysis of buildings in hilly regions with sloping grounds is somewhat different than the building located over a levelled ground. In present study 3D building frames of 25 storied building resting on flat terrain and sloping ground are taken into consideration. For sloping ground slopes of 20⁰,30⁰, and 40⁰ are considered. They are to be analyzed for wind speeds 39 m/s, 47 m/s and 55 m/s respectively. The modelling and analysis can be done using ETABS software which stands for extended three dimensional analysis of building system.

Authors: Aravind Ramesh Gaikwad  , Vaibhav Shelar
Published: June 2023

Thanks to the cantilever launching technique, arch bridge building has once again become popular throughout the world. Today, these structures are one of the three main types of long-span bridges, along with suspension and cable-stayed bridges. Arch bridge structures have a complex behavior during powerful earthquakes because the arch rib is an element that is primarily susceptible to a large axial compression force brought on by dead loads. The nonlinear dynamic analysis of an arch bridge using STAAD Pro V8i software with earthquake loading is the subject of this research. Due to their easy load bearing qualities, arch bridges with short and medium spans are currently being constructed frequently for traffic bypass. Therefore, it is necessary to assess its stability in the event of a powerful earthquake. The STAAD-modeled arch bridge's nonlinear, time history analysis. The research in this study uses pro. For Time History analysis, data from the Bhuj Earthquake of 2001 is used, and the Rudramata Bridge, which collapsed during the Bhuj Earthquake, is researched. The primary focus of this study is on the analysis of the displacement, time-velocity, and time- acceleration responses of an arch bridge to lateral loads. And the results demonstrate that the displacement for the arch bridge is less than that for the Rudramata Bridge in all three directions.

Published: June 2023

The concept of phytogenic feed additives refers to natural medicinal products derived from herbal plants to promote the growth and health of poultry. This study aims to examine the inclusion of Noni fruit juice (NFJ) in drinking water on the growth and blood lipid profile of native chickens. A total of 160 native chickens aged 2 weeks with homogeneous body weight were randomly divided into 4 treatment groups and 4 replications, each repetition with 40 chickens. Chickens were given treatment, namely: chickens were given drinking water without NFJ (A), drinking water with 4% NFJ (B), drinking water with 4.5% NFJ (C), and drinking water with 5% NFJ (D). The results showed that NLJ supplementation in drinking water had no significant effect (P>0.05) on chicken growth and feed efficiency. Blood cholesterol and HDL levels showed significant differences (P<0.05) between treatments. The lowest blood cholesterol levels were found in group C chickens and the highest in group A chickens. On the other hand, the highest HDL levels were found in group C chickens and the lowest in group A chickens. It was concluded that supplementation of 4.5% NFJ in drinking water had no impact on growth, but significantly reduced cholesterol content and increased HDL concentrations in native chicken blood.

Tujuan dari artikel ini adalah untuk menjelaskan cara beberapa media online Indonesia menggunakan kosakata dan tata bahasa untuk menyampaikan berita.  Penusukan anak adalah subjek berita yang akan  diteliti. Untuk menjelaskan penggunaan kosakata dan tata bahasa dalam menulis berita, metode deskriptif digunakan. Pendapat Roger Fowler adalah dasar dari artikel ini. Roger Fowler menggunakan penjelasan Halliday tentang struktur dan fungsi bahasa sebagai dasar untuk membangun model analisisnya. Tata bahasa memberikan alat komunikasi melalui fungsi dan strukturnya. Korban cenderung dipinggirkan oleh kosakata dan tata bahasa media online.  Sementara penulis berfokus pada pelaku, korban diabaikan. Kosakata yang biasanya digunakan membuat klasifikasi, membatasi perspektif, pertarungan wacana, dan marjinal. Passivasi dan nominalisasi, tata bahasa yang digunakan, menyebabkan tersingkirnya pelaku dan korban cenderung menjadi pemicu peristiwa.

The article reviews the reports delivered on November 1–3, 2022, at the International Research-to-Practice Conference Media Art—XXI Century: Genesis, Art Programs, Education Problems. It was organized by the Russian Academy of Arts, the Research Institute of Theory and History of Fine Arts, the State Institute for Art Studies, Stroganov Moscow State Academy of Design and Applied Arts, the Moscow Architectural Institute (State Academy), and the National Academy of Design. The conference aimed at comprehending the current state of media art in the context of digitalization of classical works and methods of their exposure; at identifying key program and aesthetic dominants in media art; and at systematizing the most relevant educational projects. The organizers suggested the following aspects as the major research focuses: classical arts and media in digital discourse; new media in the socio-cultural environment; current media forms and their genesis; new media in the urban environment; interdisciplinary and authorial projects; educational processes and new competencies. Cultural institutions today are faced with the search for a definition of materiality, with fixation of transitory art; and in response, contemporary art studies are forced to develop new theoretical concepts to be used in scholarly discourse. It is how contemporary media, digital and post-digital technologies influence the state and development of contemporary art and art history practice, architecture, design, and decorative arts, that became the key research task of Media Art—XXI Century Conference. The conference demonstrated the wide range of aesthetic, art history, culturological and pedagogical aspects, which are incorporated in the creation, exposure, and further circulation of media art in the socio-cultural space.

The article covers various aspects of how the idea of higher justice is embodied in the screen images of classic amateur detectives Father Brown and Sherlock Holmes. The first part of the article presents a semantic systematization of scientific and popular science works on screen incarnations of the image of Sherlock Holmes. There are no similar works on Father Brown, which, among other aspects, determines the scientific novelty of our article. The article also provides a comparative analysis of the idea of justice and its later on-screen representations in the Russian and European socio-cultural traditions. The second part focuses on the results of the empirical research that gives an insight into psychological perception of Father Brown and Sherlock Holmes screen images in the film adaptation of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, a British detective series (1984–1993); and in Father Brown— a detective series on BBC One (2013–present). As a result of the conducted research it was concluded that the image of Sherlock Holmes is a more popular and timeless embodiment of the idea of higher justice due to the lack of semiotic bindings to personal identity factors, including confessional ones. On the other hand, the idea of higher justice, embodied in the image of Father Brown, correlates not so much with reason as with the inner moral law of I. Kant, represented in human conscience. However, the Catholic pathos of this idea (extremely important for G.K. Chesterton) in the image of Father Brown does not make the image purely confessional, limited only by the framework of one religious doctrine. The practical significance of the research presented in the article lies in the fact that its results can be used not only in the curriculum of students of directing and filmmaking departments in terms of how exactly the genre of the classic English detective story should be interpreted in modern film adaptations, but also for developers of multimedia environment in their unique creative work with various types of texts of modern culture (physical, verbal, visual, digital).

Why Strategic Ambiguity Is So Ambiguous
Authors: Bolt Neville
Published: June 2023

Ambiguity sits at the heart of politics whether we like it or not. In a sense, it goes further still. Ambiguity finds itself innate in human nature. We appear to seek clarity and specificity in trying to understand what we see. Yet we are equally happy to blur the edges of that understanding as we yearn for something greater than is offered us. You might call this aspect wishful thinking. Perhaps it is even woven into the very fabric of belief systems and religions too. In politics the promise of the political manifesto in its appeal to the largest audience must inevitably intimate and tease beyond the point where precision might otherwise undermine the politician’s appeal. Such cognitive dissonance—holding two conflicting ideas in our minds simultaneously—only becomes an actual dilemma if we choose to see the world divided into dichotomous readings or black-and-white opposites rather than shades of grey. Ambiguity is a rich concept. It invites curiosity and engagement where ambivalence meets only with a shrug of the shoulders. It resonates in conversation with uncertainty, metaphor, simile, allegory, perspective, and other ways of seeing that undermine certitude. Simile suggests only likeness, similarity; metaphor offers a one-for-one substitution, a surprising way of translating something complex into an unexpected way of presenting a new simplicity. Yet over time the surprise wears off and yesterday’s live metaphors become tomorrow’s dead metaphors. Some might go further to say that all language inherently lacks certainty of meaning, however clear the intent.
Unmapping the Indo-Pacific: A Strategic Communications Perspective
Authors: Aoi Chiyuki
Published: June 2023

The Indo-Pacific captures the imagination of the strategic communicator. Although the concept of the Indo-Pacific remains vague and difficult for many policymakers and practitioners to grasp, particularly those from outside the area, it may be because the idea of the Indo-Pacific is at heart founded on ambiguity. The Indo-Pacific is a work in progress, as multiple actors and stakeholders try to define their own diplomatic, geopolitical/economic, and security parameters. And that process is inherently ambiguous. That process, too, is strategic communications.46 Defence Strategic Communications | Volume 12 | Spring 2023 DOI 10.30966/2018.RIGA.12.3 The two books reviewed here explain why the Indo-Pacific should merit the attention of the strategic communicator and of policymakers and practitioners. Medcalf’s Indo-Pacific Empire is not specifically presented as dealing with strategic communications, and Michelsen and Bolt’s Unmapping the 21st Century is not confined to the Indo-Pacific. Both, however, focus on the notion of ‘maps’ or cartography, which I argue to be the key to understanding the Indo-Pacific as an emerging geopolitical space. Michelsen and Bolt, further, focus on two types of ‘maps’—a hierarchical one (‘the state map’) and a horizontal one (‘the network map’)—and reveal the tension and symbiosis between the two. It is, then, critical to understand the Indo-Pacific by recognising its essential characteristics as a map, as well as a network in the making, with the network’s principal attributes manifest, centring on ambiguity.
Hybrid after All: The ‘Grey Zone’, the ‘Hybrid Warfare’ Debate, and the PLA’s Science of Military Strategy
Authors: Insisa Aurelio
Published: June 2023

Are China’s operations in the context of the many maritime and territorial contestations of the Asia-Pacific aptly described by the ‘grey zone’ paradigm that first emerged in Japanese and American policy and academic environments? Or is the Euro-Atlantic ‘hybrid warfare’ paradigm a more effective tool to understand how China operates below the threshold of war? This study provides a new perspective on the debate between grey zone and hybrid warfare literature by examining how short-of-war military operations are discussed in two quasi-authoritative sources, both titled Science of Military Strategy, published within the People’s Liberation Army ecosystem: the 2013 edition published by the Academy of Military Science and the 2020 edition published by the National Defense University. Ultimately, the two texts suggest that PLA strategists’ understanding of the use of military forces to support Beijing’s expansive sovereignty claims and ‘maritime rights and interests’ 166Defence Strategic Communications | Volume 12 | Spring 2023DOI 10.30966/2018.RIGA.12.8closely resembles Western conceptions of hybrid warfare, rather than grey zone scenarios. Nevertheless, in partial contrast with recent scholarship on Chinese hybrid warfare, the sources examined suggest that Beijing’s short-of-war operations are not conceived to produce a ‘cognitive impasse’ over the objectives, geographical scope, and modus operandi among its counterparts in the Asia-Pacific. Rather, they are conceived as an explicit form of deterrence.

La cistoisosporosis es la infección producida por un coccidio que invade el aparato digestivo provocando severos trastornos anatomopatológicos del vertebrado infectado. Esta parasitosis se encuentra desatendida o subestimada en perros de la región Cajamarca, Perú. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar la coproprevalencia de Cystoisospora spp. y su morfometría de ooquistes en perros de la zona Oeste del distrito de Cajamarca. Mediante el método de Faust se analizaron 246 muestras fecales de perros con dueños de ambos sexos, divididos en tres grupos etarios (n = 87 cachorros: 0 a 6 meses, n=43 juveniles: 6 a 12 meses y n=116 adultos: > 12 meses). A los resultados, se encontró una coproprevalencia general a Cystoisospora spp. de 15,04%. En los cachorros muestreados se encontró 24,14% de positividad; 20,93% para juveniles y 6,03% en perros mayores de 12 meses. Los ooquistes observados presentaron color verde amarillento, con ausencia de micropilo y forma ovoide divididos en dos grupos, el primero con 36,63 ± 5,05 por 35,90 ± 7,71 µm y el segundo con 38,54 ± 4,38 por 33,74 ± 4,15 µm. Se concluye que, la prevalencia de Cystoisospora spp. es baja, con mayor presencia en los cachorros, el mismo que va disminuyendo conforme avanza la edad. Además, según sus características morfométricas se trataría de C. canis, el mismo que requiere de estudios moleculares para su identificación definitiva.

Fasciolosis is a relevant zoonotic disease in the Peruvian Andes, it causes considerable economic losses by reducing cattle productivity and currently, resistance to anthelmintics is reported, so it is necessary to find new ways to comprehensively control this parasitosis. In this context, the objective of this study was to demonstrate the influence of the type of irrigation on the prevalence of bovine (Bos taurus) fasciolosis in dairy production units in the province of San Marcos, Cajamarca region, Peru. A total of 20 dairy cattle were introduced in two farms with different irrigation systems: traditional or flood irrigation (n = 10) and technified or sprinkler irrigation (n = 10). Starting in March and for ten consecutive months they were fed the rations produced on the farms and the prevalence of fasciolosis was monitored using the coproparasitological technique of natural sedimentation. In the livestock unit using flood irrigation, eggs excretion began in August, with a final prevalence of 60%; while in the livestock unit using sprinkler irrigation, the first cases were detected in September and the final prevalence was 20%. To the results, Fischer’s test determined that there was no association between the prevalence of the parasite and the type of irrigation (p=0.1698). The study suggests that the prevalence of fasciolosis in cattle fed rye-grass (Lolium perenne) / clover (Trifolium repens) grown with flood irrigation was higher than that of sprinkler irrigation; however, it is recommended to investigate with a larger number of samples and use more specific diagnostic methods.
Use of drugs in pregnant canine

Physiological changes during pregnancy induce profound alterations in the pharmacokinetic pro­perties of many drugs. These changes affect the distribution, absorption, metabolism, and excretion of drugs and therefore may affect their pharmacodynamic properties. An understanding of both the physiology of pregnancy and the specific pharmacology of the different agents is necessary to achieve effective treatment and limit maternal and fetal risk. Unfortunately, most drug studies exclude pregnant females, even when there are pathological entities that need to be treated during pregnancy (pain, infectious processes, etc). This review begins with a reminder of the basic concepts of pharmacokinetics and their clinical relevance. Physiological changes in pregnancy and their consequences on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of many drugs are described. As a closure, the therapeutic categories most commonly indicated in pregnant females are discussed.

Monitoring and analysing of the vertical deformations or the settlements of the structures is one of the main research fields in geodetic applications, which is considered a precise periodic measurement, made at different epochs to investigate these deformations on heavy structures.In this research, the deformation measurements were carried out on one of Baghdad University buildings,” Building of Computers Department” of dimensions (70.0 * 81.3 m.). Due to some cracks observed in their walls, it was necessary to monitor the vertical displacement of this building at some particular monitoring points by constructing a vertical network and measured in different epochs. The first epoch (zero epoch) was carried out in April 2006, the second in July 2006, the third in October 2006 and the last one in October 2012.These four epochs include precise levelling measurements were adjusted by Least Squares Adjustment with the aim of investigating the settlement of this building. The two approaches “the Global Congruency test” and “the simple test” are carried out to detect if there any deformation. These two approaches were employed in the analysis and found the difference in elevations between two epochs most be ensured and found that if the monitoring points (P1 to P4) stayed really stable, when compared with the time interval or not?Then according to the analysis procedure to determine the localization of settlement at specific points in the case may change in elevation must be applied. The results showed in two different statistical techniques a significant settlement in four selected corner points on building (P1, P2, P3 and P4). The statistics are based on the probability 95% test and the congruency test with Fisher distribution table
