Mitigating security risks in global supply chains: The role of strategic communication and criminological approaches in countering illicit trade and cyber threats
Authors: Jonathan Baan Naab  , Opeolu Amusa
Published: September 2024

In the era of global commerce, the integrity and resilience of supply chains have become paramount. However, the increasing complexity of international supply networks has exposed them to a myriad of security risks, including both physical threats and cyberattacks. This paper explores the critical role of strategic communication and criminological approaches in mitigating security risks within global supply chains. It argues that a proactive approach to security—one that integrates effective communication strategies and criminological theories—can significantly enhance the ability of organizations to manage and mitigate these risks. Strategic communication, encompassing clear messaging, timely information sharing, and robust stakeholder engagement, is essential for maintaining transparency and preparedness in supply chain operations. Effective communication ensures that all stakeholders are informed about potential threats and the measures in place to address them, thereby facilitating a coordinated and timely response to security incidents (Fearn-Banks, 2016; Coombs, 2007). This paper examines how organizations can develop and implement comprehensive communication plans that enhance their ability to anticipate and respond to security threats. In addition, the application of criminological theories, such as routine activity theory, situational crime prevention, and deterrence theory, provides valuable frameworks for understanding and addressing security vulnerabilities in supply chains. Routine activity theory emphasizes the importance of identifying motivated offenders, suitable targets, and capable guardians, which can help organizations develop targeted security measures to reduce opportunities for criminal activities (Cohen & Felson, 1979). Situational crime prevention focuses on modifying the environment to deter crime, while deterrence theory highlights the role of penalties and enforcement in preventing criminal behavior (Clarke, 1997; Becker, 1968). This paper explores how these theories can be applied to enhance supply chain security and develop effective preventive strategies. The integration of strategic communication with criminological approaches offers a holistic framework for mitigating security risks in supply chains. By combining these strategies, organizations can improve their ability to manage security threats, safeguard their assets, and ensure the continuity of their operations. The findings of this paper underscore the importance of adopting a comprehensive approach to supply chain security that incorporates both communication and criminological insights.

A Ghanaian Approach to Disability Literature in Picture Books
Authors: Maich Kimberly , Belcher Christina , Sohrabi Tayebeh , Specht Jacqueline , Sider Steve , MFoafo-M'Carthy Magnus , Andoh Wilson
Published: September 2024

In this study, we examined how Ghanaian picture books present disabilities. Using a content-analysis approach, the primary goal was to deduce how picture books serve to promote positive attitudes and inclusion of students with disabilities in schools in Ghana. Data included the text and visuals of seven picture books published in 2016 by Curriculum Research and Development Division of Ghana Education Services (now known as the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment), a branch of the Ghana Ministry of Education. The findings show that picture books provide an opportunity to address issues of stigma related to learning and physical disabilities, while explaining disability to non-disabled readers and disabled readers, who identify with stories about children who are like them. The process of reading stories to and with children can act as a cultural-awareness indicator. This study of children’s literature, and others like it, serve as an educational support for the inclusion of students with disabilities in inclusive classroom settings. Picture books can help to increase disability awareness in young people.

Published: September 2024

Analysis of public sentiment towards celebrity endorsements on social media is very important to understand the public's response to promotional campaigns involving celebrities. In this study, we combine the VADER labeling method with the Support Vector Machine (SVM) method to analyze public sentiment toward celebrity endorsements on social media. Data is taken from various social media sources such as Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. The data is pre-processed to ensure data accuracy and relevance and then labeled with the VADER method to determine the positive, negative, or neutral sentiment of the text. The labeled data is then extracted for features and used to train the SVM model. The trained SVM model is then validated using test data to measure its accuracy and performance. The results of the analysis provide useful insight into public sentiment towards celebrity endorsements on social media and can provide recommendations for stakeholders regarding this matter. Overall, combining the VADER labeling method with SVM in analyzing public sentiment towards celebrity endorsements on social media shows more accurate results and can provide practical benefits in marketing and promotional strategies. The results shown using the Support Vector Machine method with a ratio of 80:20 can provide average precision results of 77%, recall of 100%, f1-score of 87%, and accuracy of 76.92%. Twitter application user sentiment shows that 77% (338 data) of Twitter user reviews provide positive sentiment and 23% (119 data) provide negative sentiment reviews from a total of 517 data. Suggestions from researchers are that in future research they can add more data to make modeling easier to provide higher accuracy values. Using other classification and performance evaluation methods, such as Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Fuzzy, or Deep Learning. Use other data processing tools, such as RapidMiner, Jupyter Notebook, RStudio, or others.

Published: September 2024

A combination of ever-increasing device usage and lightning-fast technological advancements has led to a critical problem: electronic waste. One technique to encourage people to dispose of their electronic waste in a more sustainable fashion is to raise their level of green literacy. Using a literature review approach, this study examines green literacy programs as they pertain to e-waste management. After that, it evaluates the programs' effectiveness and makes recommendations for further developments. This publication uses a thorough literature review technique as its research method. The scholarly sources used were journals, academic books, research reports, and policy documents. The selection of sources was based on their relevance, credibility, and contribution to understanding key themes related to green literacy, public health education, and behavior change in e-waste management practices. Additionally, the analysis focused on the intersection between educational interventions, awareness campaigns and global health initiatives, especially those targeting vulnerable populations such as children and pregnant women. The findings demonstrate that while green literacy can raise public knowledge and comprehension of the significance of responsible e-waste management, there are still obstacles to its widespread adoption. By using social media, communities, and educational institutions, green literacy has the potential to raise awareness about the risks of e-waste and the significance of recycling. However, challenges such as public apathy and limited access to recycling facilities continue to impede the implementation of green literacy. The community, along with the governmental and private sectors, must work together to address these issues and encourage the sustainable disposal of electronic trash. Ongoing education and awareness efforts utilizing many communication platforms, including social media, the media, and educational programs in communities and schools, are necessary to improve e-waste management. In order to create easily accessible recycling facilities and launch programs that reach different societal levels, the government must collaborate with the commercial sector and non-governmental organizations.

Authors: de Quadros Ana Luiza , Guimarães Corrêa Roberta
Published: September 2024

O professor do Ensino Superior que atua com conhecimentos específicos das Ciências da Natureza tem pouca aproximação com teorias e conhecimentos relacionados à didática, o que tem levado a uma maior atenção para a formação continuada. Neste trabalho analisamos o potencial de um projeto de formação continuada desenvolvido no ambiente de trabalho dos participantes, em uma parceria entre professores do campo da Química e do campo da Educação Química. Nesse projeto os professores entraram em contato com estudos do campo da Educação e planejaram aulas a partir desses estudos, desenvolvendo-as em suas próprias turmas. Como resultado os participantes destacaram a boa receptividade e a participação ativa dos estudantes e identificaram fatores que auxiliaram no processo de aprendizagem. Com isso, argumentamos que a aproximação mais direta entre a teoria e a prática se deu pela parceria entre Químicos e Educadores Químicos e pela formação no ambiente de trabalho dos docentes.
Voces ausentes del alumnado y cuerpos ninguneados. Los espacios de aparición como posibilidad para la inclusión
Authors: Vázquez Recio Rosa
Published: September 2024

El abandono educativo se ha convertido en una problemática que se ha configurado como campo de estudio. Contamos con estudios que advierten de la necesidad de desarrollar otra forma de conceptualizar el abandono, de un modo más comprensivo que permita visibilizar a los sujetos, y lo que ellos narran desde su vivencia. El objetivo de este trabajo es aportar otra mirada con la que comprender lo implícito del abandono, que toma como herramienta de análisis los “espacios de aparición” (siguiendo a Arendt y Butler). Se analiza: a) la invisibilización del alumnado analizada a partir de lo que llamamos “espacios de desaparición”, que propician el abandono, y b) los “espacios de aparición” que posibilitan que los sujetos sean reconocidos con agencia y como sujetos epistémicos. Se concluye con que la idea de que los espacios de aparición favorecen la construcción de escuelas inclusivas, y la evitación del abandono educativo como fenómeno estructural.
Economic Growth, Industrialization, and CO2 Emissions in Pakistan: Insights from ARDL Modeling
Authors: Haider Syed Laulak , Mehdi Wasif , Mustafa Syed Muhammad , Abbas Syed Waqar
Published: September 2024

This study explores how industrialization, economic growth (measured by GDP per capita), and CO? emissions have interacted in Pakistan over nearly five decades, from 1974 to 2022. It also considers the influence of population growth and foreign direct investment (FDI) on this relationship. To analyze the data, the ARDL model was used, ensuring the reliability of the results by confirming stationarity with the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test. The results showed that in the long run, a 1% increase in GDP per capita and FDI inflows results in respective increases in CO? emissions of 0.33% and 0.061%. Still, a 1% rise in industrial activity lowers CO? emissions by 0.34%. In the short run, a 1% rise in GDP per capita and FDI reduces CO? emissions by 0.21% and 0.020%, respectively. Conversely, a 1% increase in industrial activity causes emissions of 0.29%. These findings are in line with the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) theory, which holds that CO? emissions initially rises when a nation industrializes but as the technology advances and more rigorous rules are followed, the level of CO? emissions decreases. Based on these results, policies emphasizing investments in renewable energy, strict environmental rules enforced, and support of clean technologies and sustainable industrial practices are suggested.

Arthur Schopenhauer e a Noção de Compaixão como Fundamento Moral
Authors: Damasceno Marli Ferreira de Carvalho , Sousa Filho Marcus Antonio de
Published: September 2024

Influenciado profundamente pelo idealismo transcendental de Immanuel Kant, Arthur Schopenhauer elaborou um sistema metafísico e ético que, ao longo dos anos, tem sido descrito como uma manifestação paradigmática do pessimismo filosófico. No Livro IV de sua obra O Mundo como Vontade e Representação, Schopenhauer apresenta uma teoria ética inovadora, na qual a compaixão é destacada como o verdadeiro fundamento da moralidade. Esta perspectiva contrasta significativamente com os grandes sistemas éticos da tradição filosófica ocidental, como o de Aristóteles, que vê a virtude como algo que pode ser cultivado e ensinado através de práticas sistemáticas e educativas. Para Schopenhauer, a virtude não pode ser ensinada nem adquirida por meio de sistemas éticos formais, uma vez que tais sistemas não têm o poder de transformar efetivamente o caráter moral dos indivíduos. Em vez disso, ele argumenta que a compaixão, entendida como a capacidade de se identificar com o sofrimento alheio e de agir para aliviar esse sofrimento, é a base essencial sobre a qual a moralidade deve ser construída. A problemática central deste trabalho é a seguinte: como Schopenhauer desenvolve e justifica a compaixão como o fundamento moral em sua filosofia? Para responder a essa questão, o estudo será conduzido por meio de uma análise detalhada dos textos de Schopenhauer, incluindo O Mundo como Vontade e Representação, além de uma revisão crítica de teses, dissertações e outras publicações acadêmicas que discutem a teoria ética schopenhaueriana. A pesquisa visa esclarecer como a teoria ética de Schopenhauer oferece uma alternativa ao pensamento moral tradicional, destacando a compaixão como um princípio fundamental na formação da moralidade e na compreensão do comportamento ético.

Using a novel synthetic nano-catalyst, batch oxidative desulfurization (ODS) eliminates sulfur compounds in Kerosene. The new Catalyst's silica nano-particle support is initially manufactured utilizing the sol-gel technique. Subsequently, the support is employed to fabricate a synthetic composite nano-catalyst composed of ferric oxide, utilizing the techniques devised for extracting a novel synthetic handcrafted (Fe2O3/composite support) Nano-catalyst. The composite supports used for the robust studies on the desulfurization process contain different levels of HY-zeolite (100 percent Nano silica). These levels include 10% HY-zeolite + 90% Nano silica, 20% HY-zeolite + 80% Nano silica, and 30% HY-zeolite + 70% Nano silica. The supports and manufactured Catalyst underwent characterization tests, including SEM, XRD, XRF, TGA, FTIR, BET, and particle size distribution. The tests showed an ideal distribution of the active metal (Fe), different surface structures, and a high active metal dispersion were achieved. The prominent locations are identified as limited in number, and the catalysts exhibit metal-support solid interaction. The existing Catalyst's performance was evaluated using a batch reactor. The assessment involved testing the Catalyst at different reaction temperatures (303 to 393 K) and batch times (30 to 120 minutes) while varying HY-zeolite quantities in the composite supports.

Pressurized pressure vessels utilized in the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry commonly experience in-service deterioration caused by factors such as corrosion and process-related issues. Most current research has emphasized the significance of calculating remaining lifetime (RLT) but with a little concentration on the Ultrasonic test (UT) for remaining life assessment. In this work, a case study of the pressure vessel unit (20-v-200) belonging to Basra Oil Company (BOC) at Hammar Mishrif Degassing Station (HM-DGS) is conducted. A nondestructive test (NDT) by UT technique was employed over the suspected area of the pressure vessel. Where it was identified the condition monitoring locations (CMLs) around the shell and heads of the pressure vessel, were marked twenty-one locations to obtain their wall thickness measurement. The results of the remaining lifetime showed that for shell and head were computed as 52.9 years and 56.8 years, respectively. Therefore, based on the present result, it can be deduced that the pressure vessel can remain in operation or continue to be in service for the next 52.9 years under the same process conditions. This assessment considers the existing condition of the vessel and indicates that it can meet the required safety and operational standards for an extended duration. However, as an experienced entrepreneur, I would advise that thickness measurement inspections should be conducted within a timeframe that does not exceed either half of the remaining life of the vessel or a maximum of 10 years, according to API 510. This recommendation ensures that regular assessments are performed to monitor the thickness and condition of the vessel. By adhering to this practice, timely maintenance and necessary repairs can be identified and carried out, contributing to the continued integrity and safety of the vessel throughout its operational lifespan.

It is important to pay attention to environmental regulations while preparing drilling mud because it has become aspects that must be taken into consideration both now and in the future. It is essential to use sustainable and environmentally friendly materials at every stage of the oil and gas industry if possible in order to ensure high standards of sustainable practices. Oil that has been used to prepare oil base mud have bad impact on soil and human at the same time. The using of flaxseed oil instead of gas oil to preparing emulsion is done in this paper. The results were encouraging, and showed the possibility of using flaxseed oil for preparing ecological emulsion. The efficacy of walnut shell powder as an emulsifying agent has been tested as a surface tension reducer and the possibility of using it to increase the stability of an oil emulsion either in reverse or direct at high temperatures (400°F). This research includes measurements of filtration, stability and rheological properties of oil emulsion under laboratory and high temperature. Sample C showed high stability less than 3% because it is a direct emulsion composed of 10% flaxseed oil and crushed walnut shells, which acted as an excellent emulsifying agent because it was composed of cellulose with a percentage of more than 40%. Sample E gave the highest viscosity values, and the reason for this is that it is a reverse emulsion consisting of 60% flax oil with a high viscosity, as it reached more than 70 centipoises at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

One of many lengthy, asymmetrical, and double plunging anticlines that make up the Foothill part of the Unstable Shelf Zone in northern and eastern Iraq is the Bai Hassan Oilfield. The absence of advanced fracture detection tools such as the Formation Micro Image (FMI) log and Televiewer tools used in boreholes has led to the follow of new methods to use common and ordinary well logging methods to investigate possible fractures in the reservoir. For fracture detection in the Baba Carbonate Formation in the Bai Hassan Oilfield, Northern Iraq, this study employs conventional well log data from two chosen wells (BH-101 and BH-078). Several applications have been combined, including the tri-porosity cross plot (M-N), secondary porosity calculation, natural gamma ray spectroscopy (NGS), dual laterolog - microspherical focused logs separation, and the cementation exponent (m) parameter, for detecting the fractured zones of the formation. The scatter of the sample points towards the secondary porosity field of the M-N crossplot was a preliminary indication for the existence of fractures in the studied sections. In various horizons of both studied wells, the Baba Formation has good secondary porosity that ranges from less than 1.0 to about 10%. Almost the entire formation has certain percentages of secondary porosity, especially in its middle and lower parts. An increase in the Uranium volume, as observed in some horizons from the U/K and U/Th ratios, coincides with the calculated secondary porosity values and supports those zones being fractured zones. The relative decrease in resistivities recorded by the resistivity logs in certain horizons also supported the suggestion that those intervals were fractured zones. The formation appeared to have cementation exponent values of 1.59 in the well BH-101 and 1.71 in the well Bh-078; both values are related to formations with fractures. It is vital and recommended that the procedure used in this study be applied to boreholes with image logs in order to calibrate the results and the reliability of the identified fracture zones.

The main obstacles to securing the future of humanity are the rising energy demand and the constrained supply of conventional energy sources. In order to guarantee the sustainability of energy in this world for the present and the future, solar energy is a desirable source of energy. Solar thermal collectors with evacuated tubes are primarily employed in domestic settings. Even in low-temperature applications, replacing the working fluid with nanofluid can improve heat transfer. The effect of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) and water nanofluid as working fluids in evacuated tube solar collectors(ETSC) is used to investigate the collector's thermal performance experimentally. Three different volume fraction of (MWCNT) nanoparticles of (0.01%, 0.03% and 0.05%) were examined at various volume flow rates ranging from (1 to 3 L/min). Experiments were performed in Al –Hilla, Iraq. The results show an enhancement in the efficiency with increase in the volume fraction of(MWCNT)nanoparticles and volume flow rate (i.e. concentration (0.05%) and volume flow rate (3L/min). The temperature difference of the fluid at concentration (0.05%) and volume flow rate (1L/min) increased up to (86.84 %) with adding (MWCNT) nanoparticles compared with the water. The results showed, maximum efficiency enhancement of the collector at concentration (0.05%) and volume flow rate (3L/min) about (69.63%) compared with water.

This paper presents a study of the application of gas lift (GL) to improve oil production in a Middle East field. The field has been experiencing a rapid decline in production due to a drop in reservoir pressure. GL is a widely used artificial lift technique that can be used to increase oil production by reducing the hydrostatic pressure in the wellbore. The study used a full field model to simulate the effects of GL on production. The model was run under different production scenarios, including different water cut and reservoir pressure values. The results showed that GL can significantly increase oil production under all scenarios. The study also found that most wells in the field will soon be closed due to high water cuts. However, the application of GL can keep these wells economically viable. The economic evaluation of the study showed that the optimum GL design is feasible and can significantly improve oil production. This suggests that GL is a promising technology for improving oil production in fields that are experiencing a decline in production. The study also provides a new approach to GL optimization using a genetic algorithm, which can be used to find the optimal GL design for a given field.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a class of biopolymers with characteristics resembling those of petrochemical-based plastics that have gained recent attention and a growing amount of research effort due to their environmental friendliness. Numerous bacteria, including Alcaligenes spp., Pseudomonas spp., Staphylococcus spp., and algae create (PHAs) in the presence of carbon and limiting nutrients like nitrogen, and these biopolymers can successfully replace industrial plastics. Therefore, the goal of this study is to employ carbon dioxide, an industrial pollutant emitted into the environment, as a cheap carbon source to lower production costs and remove pollution at the same time. Only three of the nine bacterial isolates utilized were able to synthesize the polymer in the presence of CO2, and the best isolate was belonging to the genus Alcaligenes after 48 hours of incubation at 30°C and pH 7, which are the optimal conditions for polymer synthesis. Bacterial growth resulted in the production of 5.2gm/l of PHA and 6.2gm/l of biomass under these conditions.
