Do Trade Agreements Enhance Bilateral Trade? Focus on India and Sri Lanka
Authors: Akram Hafiz Wasim , Ahmad Alam , Dana Leo-Paul , Khan Asif , Akhtar Samreen
Published: January 2024

This article examines bilateral trade relations between the two important countries of South Asia, India and Sri Lanka, in light of the South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA) and the India–Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (ISFTA). The analysis period spans the years 1995 to 2020. The primary analysis found that bilateral trade has been sluggish and that the SAFTA and ISFTA agreements have had no discernible effect on these two countries’ bilateral trade performance. The causes of lackluster trade performance were investigated using the “revealed comparative advantage” and the “trade complementarity” indices. Clear evidence was found demonstrating that the reason for the bilateral trade’s consistent lackluster performance is due to both countries’ lack of revealed comparative advantage in the majority of product groups, followed by export similarity in the product groups where they do have a comparative advantage. The findings also confirm the suspicion of many observers that they are competitors rather than natural trading partners. Although any substantial future increase in their bilateral trade is improbable and fanciful, the paper reflects on methods of strengthening bilateral trade.
Design Model for the Digital Shadow of a Value Stream

Published: January 2024

The value stream method, a key tool in industry to analyze and visualize value streams in production, aims to holistically optimize process steps, reduce waste, and achieve continuous material flow. However, this method primarily relies on data from a single on-site inspection, which is subjective and represents just a snapshot of the process. This limitation can lead to uncertainty and potentially incorrect decisions, especially in industries producing customer-specific products. The increasing digitization in production offers a solution to this limitation by supporting the method through data provision. The concept of the digital shadow emerges as a key tool that systematically captures, processes, and integrates necessary data into a model to enhance traditional value stream mapping. This addresses the method’s shortcomings, especially in heterogeneous IT landscapes and complex value streams. To effectively implement the digital shadow this study identifies concepts of digital shadows and their key components and evaluates them for their relevance in industrial environments using an expert study. Based on the results, a design model is defined. This model entails guidelines to support companies with the practical implementation of the digital shadow of a value stream. Lastly, the model is evaluated on a realistic value stream in a learning factory.
A Review of Axion Lasing in Astrophysics
Authors: Chen Liang , Kephart Thomas W.
Published: January 2024

Axions can be stimulated to decay into photons by ambient photons of the right frequency or by photons from the decay of neighboring axions. If the axion density is high enough, the photon intensity can be amplified, which is a type of lasing or an axion maser. Here, we review the astrophysical situations where axion lasing can appear and possibly be detected.
Spatial and Temporal Variability Characteristics and Driving Factors of Extreme Precipitation in the Wei River Basin
Authors: Yu Yingdong , Wang Mengran , Liu Zihua , Liu Tong
Published: January 2024

As global climate change intensifies, the global atmospheric circulation process is undergoing significant changes, and the local water vapor pattern has also changed. This study takes the Wei River Basin as the research area. Firstly, an evaluation index system for extreme precipitation was established, and the time-series characteristics of the magnitude, frequency, and duration of extreme precipitation were analyzed. Statistical methods were used to analyze the non-consistency in time-series changes in extreme precipitation indicators. Using spatial heterogeneity analysis methods, the spatial variation differences in extreme precipitation in the Wei River Basin were identified. This study selected the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) index, global land-ocean temperature index (LOTI), and land surface temperature (LST) index to quantitatively evaluate the impact of climate change on regional extreme precipitation and analyzed the correlation between temperature and extreme precipitation, identifying the key driving factors of extreme precipitation changes. The conclusions of this study are as follows: (1) The southern region of the Wei River Basin experiences more frequent and intense precipitation events, while the northern region experiences relatively few. (2) From 1981 to 2021, the intensity, frequency, and duration of precipitation events in the Wei River Basin gradually increased, with the most significant increase in extreme precipitation in the Guanzhong Plain. (3) Global climate change has an important impact on precipitation events in the Wei River Basin. The increase in the ENSO, LOTI, and LST indices may indicate an increase in the probability of drought and flood events in the Wei River Basin. The relationships between extreme precipitation and temperature present a peak structure. This conclusion is helpful to better understand the impact of climate change on extreme precipitation in the Wei River Basin and provides some support for the response to extreme meteorological events under the background of future climate change.
Simulation and Evaluation of Runoff in Tributary of Weihe River Basin in Western China
Authors: Liu Yinge , Su Yang , Wang Lingang , Zhao Yaqian
Published: January 2024

Model simulation plays a significant role in the water resources cycle, and the simulation accuracy of models is the key to predicting regional water resources. In this research, the Qianhe tributary at the Weihe River basin in Western China was selected as the study area. The tributary was divided into 29 sub-basins and 308 hydrological response units according to the spatial raster data and attribute data of the hydrology, meteorology, topography, land use, and soil types. On this basis, a soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model for runoff simulation and evaluation of this region was established. A sensitivity test and parameter calibration were then executed on 15 parameters involved with surface runoff, soil flow, and shallow underground runoff. The simulation results demonstrate a calibration and verification error of 3.06–10.08%, with very small uncertainties throughout the simulation, whereas they exhibit relatively large errors in the simulation of the dry period (winter) but, in contrast, quite small errors in the rainy period (summer). In addition, the simulated runoff with a low value is overestimated. When the annual, monthly, and daily runoff are 4–13.5 m3/s, 4–69.8 m3/s, and 40–189.3 m3/s, respectively, the relative error is smaller, and the simulation results are more accurate. The sensitive parameters predominantly affecting the runoff simulation of the basin include soil evaporation compensation, runoff curve coefficient, vegetation transpiration compensation, and saturated hydraulic conductivity in this region. In the case of hypothetical land use change scenarios, we observe a great reduction in simulated runoff in arable land, woodland, and grassland, while we observe an increment in construction and residential land and wasteland. The annual and monthly runoff are increased by above 54.5%. With the increase in cultivated land and forestland, the annual and monthly runoff decrease by 24.6% and 6.8%, respectively. In the case of hypothetical scenarios under 24 climate combinations, if the precipitation remains unchanged, the increase and decrease in temperature by 1 °C leads to a decline and increment of runoff by −0.72% and 5.91%, respectively. With regard to the simulation for the future under the RCP2.6 and RCP8.5 climate scenarios, downscaling was employed to predict the runoff trend of the future. In short, this study provides a method for runoff inversion and water resources prediction in small mountainous watersheds lacking hydrological and meteorological observation stations.

In this research, a hydraulic characterization of a 14 km segment of the San Pedro River, flowing through the center of the Aguascalientes Valley, was conducted. More than 50 years of flow measurement records were processed to obtain daily flows during dry and rainy seasons. Through geospatial analysis, areas with hydraulic retention, influenced by the region’s topography and sediment accumulation during the flood season, were identified. Similarly, the digital map of geological surface features revealed that some of these structures spatially coincide with these retention areas. Later, potential hydraulic connectivity between the surface and the aquifer were evaluated in the identified hydraulic stagnation areas (HSAs) using vertical electrical soundings (VESs). Finally, through an experimental process in which water collected from the San Pedro River flowed through a device filled with surface soil taken from the retention areas, the potential retention of pollutants by the local soil was evaluated based on toxicity tests using the monogonont rotifer Lecane papuana. The findings suggest the presence of three hydraulic stagnation areas (HSAs) in the examined section of the river, with one of them intersected by a surface discontinuity. According to the results of the VES, the water table beneath the HSA varies between 70 and 90 m in depth. Further analysis of the vertical electrical sounding (VES) results suggests the presence of vertical hydraulic connectivity between the San Pedro River and the local aquifer in the hydraulic stagnation areas (HSA). This is indicated by the identification of low-resistivity strata associated with highly saturated soil above the water table, as measured in the adjacent pumping wells. Additionally, the experiments involving the device filled with soil showed a reduction in water toxicity (ranging from 12 to 40%) as the San Pedro River water flowed through a 1 m column of local near-surface soil. The results of this experimental work suggest that the soil acts as a natural filter for contaminant transport under conditions in time and space similar to those of the experiment. However, there is still a significant research niche in conducting an experimental campaign in terms of hydrogeochemistry to obtain more specific results.
Responses of Soil and Ammonia Nitrogen Loss Rates to Hydraulic Parameters under Different Slope Gradients and Rainfall Intensities
Authors: Yang Hao , Wei Chenchen , Sun Guanghui , Tao Xueqing , Wang Yitong , Xing Weimin
Published: January 2024

Soil erosion and the consequent loss of nutrients have consistently been significant factors contributing to land degradation and nonpoint source pollution. While runoff serves as the primary carrier for nutrient loss, the hydraulic processes governing the mechanisms of nutrient loss remain not entirely clear. This paper aims to investigate the impacts of rainfall intensity and the slope gradient on hydraulic parameters, soil loss rates, and ammonia nitrogen loss rates, with the objective of determining the optimal hydraulic parameters for more accurate predictions of soil erosion and nutrient loss rates. A series of simulated rainfall experiments with three rainfall intensities (25, 50, and 75 mm min−1) and four slope gradients (8.7%, 17.6%, 26.8%, and 36.4%) were conducted on a 5 m × 10 m slope. The results indicated that the flow velocity, shear stress, stream power, unit stream power, and unit energy all increased with the increase in slope gradient or rainfall intensity. The water depth decreased with an increase in the slope gradient but increased with an increase in the rainfall intensity. Laminar flow occurred in all experiments (Reynolds number < 500). Only the overland flow under a 25 mm h−1 rainfall intensity and 8.7% slope gradient was subcritical flow (Froude number < 1). Hydraulic parameters, the soil loss rate, and ammonia nitrogen loss rate could be all expressed as the product of rainfall intensity and slope power function, with R2 ranging from 0.949 to 0.997. The average soil loss rate and process soil erosion rate could both be fitted using the power function of hydraulic parameters, with the optimal fitting parameter being stream power (R2 = 0.980 and 0.909). The average ammonia nitrogen loss rate exhibited a linear relationship with the hydraulic parameters, and the optimal fitting parameter was also stream power (R2 = 0.933). However, there were relatively low correlations between hydrodynamic parameters and the ammonia nitrogen loss rate (R2 = 0.450–0587). Our results contribute to a deeper understanding of the hydraulic processes involved in nutrient loss.

Published: January 2024

This paper aims to predict the internal erosion rate index and critical shear of soils based on the initial physical properties of soils. Regression statistical analyses were employed on sixteen types of clayey soils prepared at different initial dry densities and water contents. The Hole Erosion test was conducted to determine the internal erosion parameters: the erosion rate index and the critical shear. Another set of specimens with the same initial dry unit weight and water content was remolded in the direct shear box and tested using the direct shear test to determine the shear strength parameters (i.e., the cohesion and the angle of internal friction). The various physical properties of soil (initial dry unit weight, initial water content, plastic index, liquid limit, optimum water content, maximum dry density, cohesion, and angle of internal friction) were used to develop models that predict both the erosion rate index and the critical shear. The findings show that the initial physical properties can be used to predict the erosion rate index and the critical shear. The coefficient of determination (R2) was found to be between 0.83 and 0.92 to predict the erosion rate index and between 0.85 and 0.9 to predict the critical shear. The high R2 implies that the models can be used to rate the soil erodibility in advance based on simple laboratory testing instead of time-consuming tests. Additionally, the findings give varied options for prediction depending on the availability of the soil initial physical properties.

Septembre 2005. Laïcité et minorités
Authors: Cohen Martine
Published: January 2024

La laïcité française est réputée assurer à tous une liberté de conscience et de religion, ainsi que l’égalité entre tous les groupes religieux, du fait d’une loi de séparation qui ne « reconnaît » aucun d’entre eux, plus précisément aucun « culte ». Les minorités religieuses seraient ainsi mises sur un pied d’égalité avec la religion socialement majoritaire en France, le catholicisme. Du pluralisme religieux au pluralisme culturel, la laïcité française doit faire face à de nouveaux défis.
Septembre 1987. La galère, jeunes en survie
Authors: Dubet François
Published: January 2024

Cet ouvrage repose sur des entretiens approfondis entre des groupes de jeunes de quartiers difficiles (à Seraing, Vénissieux, Orly, Sartrouville, Champigny et Clichy) et des équipes de sociologues et d'intervenants sociaux. Il analyse de façon assez sombre l'univers de galère de ces jeunes.

Le passage, extrait du chapitre XVI, que nous reproduisons ici avec l'aimable autorisation de l'éditeur, traite plus précisément des jeunes issus de l'immigration dans le cadre de la cité des Minguettes à Vénissieux et introduit une note plus positive. Les jeunes immigrés, s'ils sont plus enfoncés dans la galère que les jeunes Français, manifestent par ailleurs de plus grandes capacités de renverser les logiques de celle-ci. Quant au racisme il semble absent des relations entre les jeunes eux-mêmes.
Juin 2000. Violence à l'école : la dimension « ethnique » du problème
Authors: Charlot Bernard
Published: January 2024

Longtemps sujet tabou, les discriminations sur la base ethnique au sein de l'école sont aujourd''hui renforcées par les évolutions des politiques scolaires.

Les ségrégations contribuent à engendrer un climat de violence. Les contradictions vécues par les différents acteurs de l'éducation des quartiers populaires, en proie au désarroi, et les rapports de force au sein de l'institution tendent à être de plus en plus perçus au travers d''une grille de lecture ethnique, tant chez les jeunes que chez les adultes.

Sortir de cette logique implique entre autres d'inventer une symbolique mobilisatrice, qui réconcilie égalité politique et égalité sociale, et des pratiques considérées comme légitimes par tous.

Análise da estabilidade global em edificações de pequeno porte
Authors: Fontoura Nayra Consentino , Milani Alisson Simonetti , Budny Jaelson , Hartmann Diego Arthur
Published: January 2024

O coeficiente  é um parâmetro de estabilidade amplamente utilizado no Brasil, contudo possuí aplicação limitada para 4 pavimentos, devido a orientação da NBR 6118 (2023), que permite a utilização de redutores de rigidez como consideração aproximada dos efeitos da não linearidade física (NLF). Objetivo deste trabalho é avaliar a estimativa dos efeitos de 2ª ordem do coeficiente  em edificações de 2 e 3 pavimentos e, verificar a influência da variação dos redutores de rigidez nos resultados do coeficiente . Foram realizadas simulações no sistema TQS de dois modelos com configurações distintas, em que os resultados do coeficiente   foram comparados com os obtidos através do processo P-. Os resultados evidenciam que a utilização de fatores de redução de rigidez mais refinados como estimativa da NLF proporcionou maior precisão na estimativa dos efeitos de 2ª ordem. Empregando os redutores de rigidez indicados pela NBR 6118 (2023) no modelo de 2 pavimentos, obteve-se 1,10, classificando a estrutura como de nós fixos. Entretanto, ao considerar os demais métodos de redução de rigidez, o coeficiente obtido foi de 1,13, reclassifcando a estrutura como de nós móveis. Logo, quando a estimativa dos efeitos da NLF é realizada de forma mais refinada, o coeficiente  oferece uma estimativa adequada dos efeitos de 2ª ordem para as estruturas estudadas com menos de 4 pavimentos.
Determining Maximum Allowable Current of an RBS Using a Directed Graph Model and Greedy Algorithm
Authors: Xu Binghui , Hua Guangbin , Qian Cheng , Xia Quan , Sun Bo , Ren Yi , Wang Zili
Published: January 2024

Reconfigurable battery systems (RBSs) provide a promising alternative to traditional battery systems due to their flexible and dynamically changeable topological structures that can be adapted to different battery charging and discharging strategies. A critical system parameter known as the maximum allowable current (MAC) is pivotal to RBS operation. This parameter is instrumental in maintaining the current of each individual battery within a safe range and serves as a guiding indicator for the system’s reconfiguration, ensuring its safety and reliability. This paper proposes a method for calculating the MAC of an arbitrary RBS using a greedy algorithm in conjunction with a directed graph model of the RBS. Using the shortest path of the battery, the greedy algorithm transforms the exhaustion of the switch states in the brute-force algorithm or variable search without utilizing structures in the heuristic algorithms in the combination of the shortest paths. The directed graph model, based on an equivalent circuit, provides a specific method for calculating the MAC of a given structure. The proposed method is validated using 2 previously published RBS structures and an additional one with a more complex structure. The results are the same as those from the brute-force algorithm, but the proposed method substantially improves the computational efficiency, being theoretically

Published: January 2024

Bu çalışma, 19. Yüzyıldan sonra Mısır’ın ekonomi politiğini Alexander Gerschenkron’un “Geç Endüstrileşen Ülkeler Tezi” çerçevesinde incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Mısır’ın kapitalizme eklemlenme sürecinde Mısır’ın sanayileşme serüveni tarihsel sosyoloji metodu kullanılarak incelenmeye çalışılmıştır. Mısır’ın endüstrileşme sürecinin, kapitalizme geç bütünleşen diğer çevre ülkeler ile paralellikler gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Devletin ekonomide uyguladığı devletçi politikaların, endüstrileşmede belli bir olgunlaşmaya ulaşamadan sona erdirilmiştir. Bu durum, Mısır’ın geç endüstrileşen ülkeler arasında, endüstrileşmede sıçrama yapamadan fırsatı kaçıran ülkeler arasında yer almasının en önemli nedenlerden biridir. Bir diğer neden endüstrileşmeyi finanse edecek yatırım bankalarının yokluğu ya da Mısır Bankası’nın bu işlevi yerine getirememesi olarak değerlendirilebilir. Bu nedenle, Mısır’ın sermaye bağımlılığı hiçbir dönemde kırılamamıştır. Bağımlı kapitalist kalkınmanın getirdiği adaletsizlikler Mısır’da hem siyasi istikrarı tesis etmeyi hem de endüstrileşme hedeflerini zora sokmuştur.

Teknolojik gelişmelerin etkisiyle değişime uğrayan ve dijitalleşen çalışma hayatında işçi, teknolojik iletişim araçları vasıtasıyla iş ile ilgili konular bakımından sürekli ulaşılabilir hale gelmiştir. İşçinin çalışma saatleri ile dinlenme saatleri iç içe geçmiş, özel hayatı ile çalışma hayatı arasındaki sınırlar giderek belirsizleşmeye başlamıştır. İşçinin karşı karşıya kaldığı bu olumsuzluklar karşısında başta Fransa ve Almanya olmak üzere bazı ülkeler, işçiye ulaşılabilir olmama hakkı olarak ifade edilen yeni bir hak tanınması yoluna gitmiş ve işçinin çalışma saatleri dışında işi ile bağlantısının kesilmesini öngörmüştür. Bu ülkelerin ardından ulaşılabilir olmama hakkını tartışmaya başlayan ve yasal zemine kavuşturan ülkelerin sayısı giderek artmış, Avrupa Birliği de bu hakkın tanınmasının gerekliliğini önemle vurgulamıştır. Türk hukukunda ise ulaşılabilir olmama hakkının tanınması bakımından henüz bir girişimde bulunulmamış, mevcut düzenlemeler çerçevesinde bu hakkın varlığından bahsedilip bahsedilmeyeceğinin tartışılmasıyla yetinilmiştir. Bu çalışmada; ulaşılabilir olmama hakkına duyulan gereksinimden yola çıkılarak bu hak bakımından mevcut uluslararası düzenlemeler ortaya konulmuş, bu çerçevede hakkın Türk hukukundaki durumu ele alınarak birtakım çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur.

Efektivitas pengaturan mengenai pemilihan umum yang mampu memberikan sanksi yang adil dan sesuai dalam setiap pelanggaran pemilihan umum yang telah dilakukan berdasarkan sistem hukum yang berlaku dapat menentukan keberhasilan untuk menyelenggarakan pemilihan umum yang transparan dan akuntabel. Lawrence M. Friedman menjelaskan unsur-unsur dari sistem hukum terdiri dari struktur hukum (legal structure), substansi hukum (legal substance), dan budaya hukum (legal culture). Penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum normatif yang menggunakan pendekatan penelitian konseptual dengan menggunakan bahan hukum primer, bahan hukum sekunder, dan bahan nonhukum. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah struktur hukum yang berkaitan dengan pemilihan umum masih mempunyai kendala yang berkaitan pada dalam upaya proses penanganan dugaan pelanggaran pidana pemilu. Dari segi substansi hukum Undang-Undang Nomor 7 Tahun 2017 perlu menjelaskan secara lebih rinci mengenai tindak pidana pemilu dan kualifikasi tindakan yang dilakukan adalah pelanggaran atau kejahatan. Serta dari segi budaya hukum baik penyelenggara pemilihan umum, peserta pemilihan umum dan masyarakat sebagai pemilih belum sepenuhnya menyadari hakikat atau tujuan pemilihan umum. Sehingga penegakan hukum dalam pemilihan umum berdasarkan Undang-Undang Nomor 17 Tahun 2017 tentang Pemilihan Umum belum efektif berdasarkan pada tinjauan sistem hukum menurut Lawrence M. Friedman.

This research aims to examine the e-word of mouth (e-wom) and e-service quality (e-servqual) influence on customer loyalty which is mediated by customer satisfaction. The population in this research was all customers at Rakan Raja Tour & Travel whose addresses in Lhokseumawe City and Aceh Besar District, Indonesia. Because the population was infinite, the sample in this study was determined using the number of research indicators times 5 to obtain a sample size of 22x5=110 respondents. Data collection was carried out by distributing questionnaires to all research respondents. Data was measured using a Likert scale and analyzed using the SEM-AMOS model. The results show that the descriptive hypothesis testing proves that e-wom, e-servqual, satisfaction, and loyalty are good; the direct hypothesis testing shows that e-wom significantly influences satisfaction, e-wom does not significantly influence loyalty, e-servqual significantly influences satisfaction, e-servqual significantly influences loyalty, and satisfaction does not significantly influence loyalty; and the indirect hypothesis testing proves that satisfaction mediates (full mediation) e-wom on customer loyalty, and satisfaction mediates (partial mediation) eservqual on customer loyalty. All these findings prove that the model of strengthening customer loyalty is a function of increasing and strengthening e-WOM, e-servqual, and customer satisfaction

The direct test results found that transformational leadership, work environment, and employee performance had a significant impact on organizational performance. Transformational leadership and the work environment are the main factors that can improve organizational performance through the mediating role of employee performance. Organizational culture does not moderate transformational leadership on organizational performance. However, on the other route, namely the work environment on organizational performance, organizational culture plays a significant role as a moderator. These results imply that to improve organizational performance, organizational culture must be adapted to the work environment. Because if the organizational culture is not in harmony with the work environment, it will reduce the positive value of the work environment on organizational performance.

The study was conducted in Wasasji Forest Reserve in Taraba State, Nigeria, it assessed tree species composition and diversity. Five transects of 1000m (1km) each were laid in the forest at an interval of 500m apart for the study. Sample plots of 50m x 50m sizes were laid in alternate positions along each transect at interval of 250m were used for data collection. In each sampled plot, tree species from ≥ 10cm diameter were identified and counted. These were used to determined the tree species composition, while their diversity indices were estimated using Shannon-wiener diversity index, margalef’s index (species richness index), species evenness, simpson’s diversity index and menhinick’s diversity index. The results revealed that a total of 48 different tree species comprising of 17 families were recorded in the forest. The family of moraceae had the highest (8) number of species representation in the forest. The most predominant tree species are Funtumia elastica, Tetrapleura tetraptera, Uapaca heudolitii, Ceiba pentandra and Erythrophleum suavolens. The Shannon-wiener index of (3.49), Species richness (7.56), species evenness (0.49), simpson’s index ( ), and menhinick’s (6.21) were estimated for the forest which are high. The state government should regulate cutting of trees in the forest.

Utilization of organic fertilizer aims to increase soil fertility and efforts to improve the balance of the corn plant ecosystem. One source of organic fertilizer is black grass jelly waste, both solid and liquid. Black grasss jelly waste is available in excess because factories that produce black grass jelly have not utilized the waste as an alternative to organic fertilizer. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of organic fertilizer from black grass jelly waste both solid and liquid on the abundance of insects and their natural enemies. This research started from September to December 2021. It took place at the Integrated Field Laboratory, Kadiri Islamic University, in Rejomulyo Village, Kediri City, with a pH of 7, daily temperature and humidity (±28.3°C and 72.2%) with rainfall 45 mm/month. Variable observations of downy mildew disease sentitivity index and insect diversity. The results showed that the effect of grass jelly fertilizer had an effect on the level of resistance to downy mildew attacks. In all the insects found were 47 families consisting of 6 orders. On diversity has a moderate value. In terms of evenness and species richness, it was found that all the results had high scores. So that the treatment of solid and liquid fertilizers against insect diversity is very good.

The buildings that form Pour Winery in Kayamandi near the town of Stellenbosch in the winegrowing region of South Africa deal with the history of race relations in the country rather than avoid it. They claim with equal pride their origins in Cape Dutch Architecture which predominates in the wealthy regions of the Stellenbosch valley, as well as the South African Ndebele people’s bold geometric patterns that cover their homes in the northeastern part of the country. The careful interplay of black and white architectural elements of the winery signify and acknowledge the complex race relationship of the country while the expanded programmatic function of the winery as economic center and social hub empowers the local community.
Vaults versus Memorials: Evoking Fiction in the Architectural Drawing

Published: January 2024

Part of a comprehensive studio design project, the exercise presented in this paper is a vehicle to investigate design thinking processes and how students construct intentions. The theme is the book and media. The semester’s project begins with seminars on the history of books. The discussion delves into a book’s craftsmanship and as a symbol for embodied knowledge and progresses to the roles books have played in society. Expanding the theme, discussion leads to the question of a book’s preservation (vault) or its destruction in a digital society (memorial). The exercise is contingent upon the opposition created between the two spheres inherent to the title, Vaults versus Memorials. It positions the student in a manner that resists allocation to one sphere or another, an impetus for restructuring specified spheres according to new schemas. Written texts play an interlocutory role during the production of students’ drawings. Each of the assigned texts offers an entry point to a tacit learning situation and a restructuring of semantic fields. With reference to Paul Ricoeur’s research on interpretation theory, a mental distancing between text and drawing exposes students to ambiguities and the realization that prejudices play a role in understanding and interpreting meaning in the production of a visual work. The act of drawing produces its own frame of reference that we trace in three modes of production. These can be categorized as metaphoric interaction, textual dissection, and the guess. Vaults versus Memorials establishes a dialectical situation between explanation and understanding which lends itself to an open investigation process. With the expansion of theme through drawing and by the depth of inferred meanings, students can speculate as to which interpretation is the most plausible fiction establishing probable, subjective criteria to carry forward later stages of the design.
Measuring the Integrated Development Degree of Urban Waterside: A Quantitative Index Based on Multi-sourced Urban Data and Geodesign

The urban waterside area is an important component of the urban spatial structure. However, current research on this topic cannot comprehensively and accurately measure the integrated development of the urban waterside area because of its comprehensive value and the coordination topic of watersides’ equilibrium resulting from various elements in the physical space and the social system. Therefore, with an emphasis on urban synergy and balance, it is indispensable to establish a comprehensive quantitative index system to evaluate the integrated development of urban waterside areas. This research takes Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan, and Ningbo as cases and evaluates urban waterside areas on aspects of socio-economic and physical spaces to construct an integrated development evaluation system. First, the distance that can be reached by public transit within 30 minutes from each city river’s shoreline is considered as the search scope. The socioeconomic indicators include the number of points of interest (PoIs) and population density based on location-based services (LBS) data, while physical space indicators include walking and vehicle traveling potential. Moreover, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is employed to calculate the weights of the above indicators. Finally, a qualitative evaluation model based on multi-source data for evaluating the integrated development of urban waterside areas is proposed. The results show that Ningbo and Guangzhou have maintained relatively high integrated grades, and the balance has developed more evenly. Among the four cities, the waterside’s integrated level of Wuhan is the lowest in each range, leading to its relatively large spatial diversity, weak accessibility, and low development intensity. This research not only contributes a more scientific way of defining isochrones based on Gaode API but also solves the long-lasting problems of limited labor costs, few research samples, and a short-covered timeline in urban evaluation, which support future refined urban design practices in the waterside area.

Introduction: The human body is exposed to numerous chemical and biological environmental factors. Post-exposure allergic reactions are becoming increasingly common. Interacting substances enhance each other’s health effects and aggravate allergy symptoms. Registration of a high pollen count resulting from a gradual increase in ambient temperatures leads to disappointing forecasts of a high prevalence of allergic rhinitis (hay fever). Evaluation of public health monitoring data on drinking water and food quality has revealed the significance of such pollutants as nitrates and nitrites. The interaction between pollen and nitrates has not been studied although it is of interest in terms of potential health effects of combined exposures.
Objectives: To evaluate morphological changes in the quantitative composition of mast cells using an aqueous solution of molecular hydrogen in an experimental model of hay fever aggravated by exposure to chemical agents.
Methods: Male Wistar rats were selected for experimental modeling of allergic rhinitis and 34 groups of six animals each were exposed to pollen and chemical agents during 55 days. To assess morphological changes in the nasal respiratory mucosa, we stained tissues with Giemsa solution and also applied a combined staining technique (Patent No. 2781558 dated October 13, 2022).
Study limitations: Groups for comparison of methods of administration of the aqueous solution of molecular hydrogen against the saline solution were not included.
Results: The cell morphology analysis revealed quantitative and qualitative changes in the animal groups with single and combined exposure to pollen and chemical agents and confirmed the therapeutic and prophylactic effect of the aqueous solution enriched with molecular hydrogen.
Conclusion: The combined exposure to pollen allergens and nitrates and/or nitrites induces significant mast cell activation compared to control and single exposure groups. Therapeutic and preventive effects of molecular hydrogen down-regulate mast cell degranulation.
