A Digital Platform and Smartphone App to Increase Physical Activity in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: Overview Of a Technical Solution (Preprint)
Authors: Bonn Stephanie E , Alexandrou Christina , Trolle Lagerros Ylva
Published: March 2023

UNSTRUCTURED

Mobile Health (mHealth) solutions can be used to increase patients’ engagement in self-care. Descriptions of the technical solutions behind mHealth smartphone apps may guide the development of future apps. Here, we aim to describe the technical background and visual display of the DiaCert system, which was developed to support daily walking among patients with type 2 diabetes. The DiaCert system publishes one application program interface developed for patient devices (ie, smartphone apps running on iOS or Android) and another for web-based health care provider components (ie, administrative components). An individual care plan is created for each patient on the caregiver platform, and data on physical activity (ie, steps), blood samples, and questionnaires are shared between patient and caregiver in the DiaCert system. Technical solutions such as this enable us to reach more individuals at a lower cost compared to traditional health care. An advantage to the DiaCert technical solution is that it is built on a simple architecture and therefore is easily scalable. However, as it is a separate solution, it means adding yet another process for health care personnel to integrate into their work, which must be acknowledged. We hope that the technical description and visual display of the DiaCert system herein can guide researchers in the design and building of new and effective mHealth solutions.

Development and Assessment of Assisted Diagnosis Models Using Machine Learning for Identifying Elderly Patients With Malnutrition: Cohort Study (Preprint)
Authors: Wang Xue , Yang Fengchun , Zhu Mingwei , Cui Hongyuan , Wei Junmin , Li Jiao , Chen Wei
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND

Older patients are at an increased risk of malnutrition due to many factors related to poor clinical outcomes.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to develop an assisted diagnosis model using machine learning (ML) for identifying older patients with malnutrition and providing the focus of individualized treatment.

METHODS

We reanalyzed a multicenter, observational cohort study including 2660 older patients. Baseline malnutrition was defined using the global leadership initiative on malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, and the study population was randomly divided into a derivation group (2128/2660, 80%) and a validation group (532/2660, 20%). We applied 5 ML algorithms and further explored the relationship between features and the risk of malnutrition by using the Shapley additive explanations visualization method.

RESULTS

The proposed ML models were capable to identify older patients with malnutrition. In the external validation cohort, the top 3 models by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve were light gradient boosting machine (92.1%), extreme gradient boosting (91.9%), and the random forest model (91.5%). Additionally, the analysis of the importance of features revealed that BMI, weight loss, and calf circumference were the strongest predictors to affect GLIM. A BMI of below 21 kg/m2 was associated with a higher risk of GLIM in older people.

CONCLUSIONS

We developed ML models for assisting diagnosis of malnutrition based on the GLIM criteria. The cutoff values of laboratory tests generated by Shapley additive explanations could provide references for the identification of malnutrition.

A Web-Based Total Worker Health Intervention for Those Fighting Wildland Fires: Mixed Methods Development and Effectiveness Trial (Preprint)
Authors: Kuehl Kerry , Elliot Diane , DeFrancesco Carol , McGinnis Wendy , Ek Susanna , Garg Bharti
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND

Fire seasons are longer, with more and larger wildfires, placing increased demands and risks on those fighting wildland fires. There are multiple agencies involved with fighting wildland fires and unique worksite conditions make meeting these workers’ needs a challenge.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of the study is to develop and establish the effectiveness of a web-based safety and health program for those fighting wildland fires.

METHODS

This mixed methods project had 3 phases. The initial qualitative phase assessed the needs of 150 diverse firefighters through interviews and focus groups across 11 US sites to establish and prioritize program content. Interview transcripts were read for thematic content with iterative readings used to identify, code, and rank health and safety issues. The second phase used that information to build a comprehensive Total Worker Health program for those fighting wildfires. The program content was based on the qualitative interview data and consisted of 6 core and 8 elective 30-minute, web-based modules primarily done individually on a smartphone or computer. The final, third phase evaluated the program with a quantitative prospective proof-of-concept, usability, and effectiveness trial among wildland firefighter participants. Effectiveness was assessed with paired 2-tailed t tests for pre- and post-Likert agreement scale survey items, adjusted for multiple comparisons. In addition to assessing mean and SD at baseline and postsurvey, observed effect sizes were calculated (Cohen d). Usability and reaction to the program among firefighters who responded to postsurvey were also assessed.

RESULTS

The qualitative themes and subthemes were used to inform the program’s content. For the effectiveness trial, 131 firefighters completed the presurvey, and 50 (38.2%) completed the postsurvey. The majority of the participants were White (n=123, 93.9%), male (n=117, 89.3%), with an average age of 41 (SD 12.9) years. Significant increases in knowledge and desired health and safety behaviors were found for both cancer (P<.001) and cardiovascular risk (P=.01), nutrition behaviors (P=.01), hydration or overheating (P=.001), binge drinking (P=.002), and getting medical checkups (P=.001). More than 80% (n=40) of postsurvey respondents agreed or strongly agreed that the program was easy to use and would recommend it to others.

CONCLUSIONS

An innovative web-based safety and health promotion program for those fighting wildland fires was feasible, scalable, and usable. It improved the health and safety of those fighting wildland fires.

Authors: Benjamens Stan , Dhunnoo Pranavsingh , Görög Márton , Mesko Bertalan
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND

Artificial intelligence (AI)– and machine learning (ML)–based medical devices and algorithms are rapidly changing the medical field. To provide an insight into the trends in AI and ML in health care, we conducted an international patent analysis.

OBJECTIVE

It is pivotal to obtain a clear overview on upcoming AI and MLtrends in health care to provide regulators with a better position to foresee what technologies they will have to create regulations for, which are not yet available on the market. Therefore, in this study, we provide insights and forecasts into the trends in AI and ML in health care by conducting an international patent analysis.

METHODS

A systematic patent analysis, focusing on AI- and ML-based patents in health care, was performed using the Espacenet database (from January 2012 until July 2022). This database includes patents from the China National Intellectual Property Administration, European Patent Office, Japan Patent Office, Korean Intellectual Property Office, and the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

RESULTS

We identified 10,967 patents: 7332 (66.9%) from the China National Intellectual Property Administration, 191 (1.7%) from the European Patent Office, 163 (1.5%) from the Japan Patent Office, 513 (4.7%) from the Korean Intellectual Property Office, and 2768 (25.2%) from the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The number of published patents showed a yearly doubling from 2015 until 2021. Five international companies that had the greatest impact on this increase were Ping An Medical and Healthcare Management Co Ltd with 568 (5.2%) patents, Siemens Healthineers with 273 (2.5%) patents, IBM Corp with 226 (2.1%) patents, Philips Healthcare with 150 (1.4%) patents, and Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co Ltd with 144 (1.3%) patents.

CONCLUSIONS

This international patent analysis showed a linear increase in patents published by the 5 largest patent offices. An open access database with interactive search options was launched for AI- and ML-based patents in health care.
The Impact of a Gamified Mobile Mental Health App (eQuoo) on Resilience and Mental Health in a Student Population: Large-Scale Randomized Controlled Trial (Preprint)
Authors: Litvin Silja , Saunders Rob , Jefferies Philip , Seely Hayley , Pössel Patrick , Lüttke Stefan
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND

With many digital mental health interventions failing to engage clients for enough time to demonstrate substantive changes to their well-being and with only 2% of all digital solutions on app stores having undergone randomized controlled trials, the rising demand for mental health prevention and early intervention care is not being met. Young adults in particular struggle to find digital well-being apps that suit their needs.

OBJECTIVE

This study explored the effects of eQuoo, an evidence-based mental health game that teaches psychological skills through gamification, on resilience, depression, anxiety, and attrition in a student population.

METHODS

In total, 1165 students from 180 universities in the United Kingdom participated in a 5-week, 3-armed randomized controlled trial. Participants were randomly allocated into 1 of 3 groups: eQuoo users, users of a treatment-as-usual evidence-based cognitive behavioral health app called Sanvello, and a no-intervention waitlist. The Rugged Resilience Scale, Generalized Anxiety Disorder–7, and Patient Health Questionnaire–8 were administered to all participants at baseline and every 7 days until completion.

RESULTS

A repeated measures–ANOVA revealed statistically significant increases in resilience scores in the test group (P<.001) compared with both control groups (Sanvello: P=.10 and waitlist: P=.82) over 5 weeks. The app also significantly decreased anxiety and depression scores (both P<.001). With 64.5% (251/389) adherence, the eQuoo group retained 42% more participants than the control groups.

CONCLUSIONS

Digital health interventions such as eQuoo are effective, scalable, and low-cost solutions for supporting young adults and are available on all leading mobile platforms. Further investigation could clarify the extent to which specific elements of the eQuoo app (including gamification) led to better outcomes.

Application of artificial neural networks to predict the behavior of stocks
Authors: Rivero José Ricardo Magalhães , Junior Cleber Almeida Corrêa , Corrêa Rosilene Abreu Portella
Published: March 2023

Statistical data point to the fact that the vast majority of the world population, even after working for a lifetime, when they retire, do not have significant reserves of financial resources in order to guarantee a good quality of life in the elderly. Bearing in mind that the financial stock market offers a viable opportunity for lifelong capital expansion; Through this work, we sought to develop an innovative technique to allow a simple support based on mathematical models, for support decision making by common people, for buying or selling market stocks. This is because the techniques that support decision-making are relatively complex and not widely mastered by the majority of the Brazilian population. The algorithm was proposed to better perform this task. It was made by one corresponding Artificial Neural Network of the “Multi-Layer Perceptron” type with “Backpropagation”. Because this ANN is suitable for learning patterns of historical series, which are usually the object of study of stock price behavior by technical analysis methodologies, that are widely used by the market. Therefore, a comparative study was carried out between the results found using the proposed ANN methodology versus the results obtained from simple technical analysis versus single purchase and sale operations in a period of one year. It was found that the ANN model used guided the achievement of superior results for operations with all the Stocks tested, thus proving to be a promising way to solve problems of this nature; related to the identification of mathematical patterns of historical series of the behavior of stock prices on the São Paulo stock exchange.
An Assessment of Sustainable Energy Management at a Major United Kingdom Based Hub Airport: A Case Study of London Gatwick Airport
Authors: Baxter Glenn
Published: March 2023

Due to their extremely energy intense nature, airports are increasingly focusing on their energy consumption and energy efficiency as a key part of their sustainability policies and strategies. Based on an in-depth longitudinal case study research design, this study has examined London Gatwick Airport, a major United Kingdom-based hub airport, sustainable energy management. The case study covered the period 2014 to 2021. London Gatwick Airport has two principal energy sources: electricity and natural gas. The case study revealed that London Gatwick Airport contributes to a lower carbon grid through its procurement of 100% certified renewable electricity. The airport has purchased this 100% certified renewable electricity since 2013. This measure has enabled the airport to mitigate its environmental impact. An important energy-related development at London Gatwick Airport, has been the airport’s waste processing and biomass generation facility, which began operations in November 2016. Category 1 and other types of organic waste are converted into biomass fuel that is used to power the processing plant and provide heating for the airport’s North Termina and the airport’s waste management site. The waste plant also provides power to the site’s water recovery system. Throughout the study period, London Gatwick Airport introduced a range of energy efficiency related measures. These measures include the installation of high efficiency lighting, heating, air conditioning, and ventilation (HVAC) systems, the upgrading of the airport’s boiler plant, the installation of an electricity powered hydrant dispenser, and the installation of more energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) lighting. The airport is also replacing its fleet of airport vehicles with electric powered vehicles. In addition, the airport is transitioning towards the use of electricity powered ground service equipment (GSE).
Los fundamentos político-filosóficos del derecho migratorio chileno y su impacto en la comprensión de la garantía de igualdad
Authors: Bassa Mercado Jaime , González Pérez Erick
Published: March 2023

El presente trabajo hace una revisión crítica de los fundamentos políticos, filosóficos y normativos del estatuto migrante en Chile cuyo tratamiento es anacrónico e insuficiente en términos de contener el fenómeno migratorio en la intensidad y magnitud en que se ha manifestado en Chile en la última década. Esta insuficiencia normativa tiene su antecedente en el paradigma político mismo desde donde se erige la modernidad, donde la noción de soberanía y la construcción de una noción de sujeto-ciudadano, titular de derechos sociales y humanos, tiene un correlato en la forma en que el constitucionalismo moderno trata las temáticas de la diferencia y la igualdad en términos abstractos y universales lo que termina determinando la forma en que los derechos funda-mentales son interpretados.
“Knock for knock” en contratos de fletamento: sus elementos centrales e interpretación judicial en el derecho comparado norteamericano e inglés
Authors: Castillo Mariano
Published: March 2023

La noción de “knock for knock” implica un régimen contractual que aplica un principio de distribución del riesgo y asignación de sus responsabilidades asociadas. Esta distribución se realiza sobre el criterio de que cada parte soporta sus propios riesgos, por lo que asume las responsabilidades derivadas de ello y se espera que obtenga seguros en consecuencia. Se implementa, como un régimen contractual, por medio de una o varias cláusulas. Existen varias herramientas jurídicas que permiten establecer un régimen de estas características. Dentro de la noción genérica de cláusulas eximentes de responsabilidad, las dos vías más comunes suponen: una, las cláusulas de exoneración o limitación de la responsabilidad reciprocas; la otra, las indemnidades mutuas. Se analiza la incorporación de regímenes de “knock for knock” en contratos de fletamento a tiempo de buques. Primero, se ofrece una noción de “knock for knock” y su incorporación al contrato. Segundo se destacan los principales criterios de interpretación de contratos de fletamento a tiempo y se analiza la interpretación y validez de las cláusulas de “knock for knock” en dichos contratos, a la luz de la jurisprudencia norteamericana e inglesa. Metodológicamente se aborda desde la hermenéutica jurídica, se recurre a la doctrina, normativa y jurisprudencia.

Daños derivados de la infidelidad conyugal. Análisis del tema a la luz del derecho al libre desarrollo de la personalidad y de la inobservancia de los deberes matrimoniales
Authors: Medina Villanueva Jorge Eduardo
Published: March 2023

Dentro de los temas relativos al derecho de daños, sin duda uno de los más polémicos es el referente a la reclamación de indemnización por las consecuencias derivadas de la infidelidad conyugal. La Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación reciente-mente se pronunció en una interesante sentencia en el sentido de negar la procedencia de la indemnización por daños derivados de este supuesto, atento, en términos generales, al derecho al libre desarrollo de la personalidad y a que la fidelidad sexual es un deber moral, por lo que no se puede coaccionar a los cónyuges a su cumplimiento. Se analiza el tema planteado por la Suprema Corte precisamente desde estos dos aspectos: los límites al derecho al libre desarrollo de la personalidad y las consecuencias de la inobservancia de esos deberes morales. Concluimos que no resultan convincentes los argumentos de la sentencia analizada y proponemos nuevas líneas de análisis del problema.
La liberalización del mercado eléctrico español: agentes intervinientes, distribución de competencias y la especial posición del regulador. Retos a los que se enfrenta como consecuencia de la crisis provocada por la COVID-19
Authors: Pérez de Arévalo Trillo-Figueroa Casto
Published: March 2023

Con motivo de la reforma energética constitucional promulgada por el Ejecutivo en México, el 20 de diciembre de 2013 y por el que se desarrolla un sistema eléctrico nacional impulsado conjuntamente por la Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE) y los particulares, todo ello bajo la dirección del Estado,1 además de la alta complejidad de este sector, junto con la amplia cantidad de agentes implicados y el profundo impacto que tiene en la sociedad y la industria, resulta de gran interés estudiar cómo se ha producido este desarrollo en España, ya que ambos Países compartían una situación inicial similar, pues contaban con una gestión 100% pública y la reforma ha tratado de abrir diferentes subsectores dentro del tramo eléctrico, susceptibles todos ellos, de funcionar como sistema de mercados regulados en un ámbito de competencia. Además de esto y dada la dramática situación que se está viviendo a nivel mundial con la crisis sanitaria de la Covid-19, se está abocando a un decrecimiento económico generalizado en todos los sectores estratégicos a nivel global. El mercado eléctrico español no es ajeno a todo esto y también se está viendo afectado, debido a disrupciones y trastornos que se están sucediendo y que pueden alterar el correcto funcionamiento del sistema, o incluso provocar un desplome financiero en las empresas y los mercados de valores, además de agrandar, más si cabe, la fractura social ya existente, al dificultar gravemente que muchos hogares españoles puedan hacer frente a los gastos derivados de la factura energética.
La incapacidad para ser juzgado y el modelo social de la discapacidad. retos, desafíos y tensiones para el derecho penal latinoamericano
Authors: Mercurio Ezequiel
Published: March 2023

El modelo social de la discapacidad trajo importantes transformaciones legislativas en el campo del derecho civil en diversos países de América Latina. Los modelos de sustitución en la toma de decisiones fueron reemplazados por modelos basados en apoyos que respeten la voluntad y las preferencias de las personas con discapacidad. El Comité sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad señaló que la incapacidad para ser juzgado y la inimputabliidad son contrarias a la Convención sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad. Sin embargo, en el ámbito del derecho penal latinoamericano la influencia del modelo social en la dogmática y en el campo procesal penal es todavía muy escaso. México y Argentina incorporaron en forma reciente en sus Códigos de Procedimientos Penales, ajustes al procedimiento y apoyos. México mantuvo las medidas de seguridad para personas que no pueden ser juzgadas; la Argentina deriva las posibles intervenciones a la justicia civil. A pesar de estos avances procesales, la mayoría de los comentaristas mantienen visiones tradicionales sobre la incapacidad para ser juzgado. El modelo social de la discapacidad le presenta al derecho penal nuevos retos y desafíos, que serán abordados en el presente trabajo.
La necesidad de la declaración bajo juramento o promesa de honor del imputado como medio de prueba
Authors: Ríos Patio Gino Augusto Tomás , Espinoza Bonifaz Augusto Renzo
Published: March 2023

El artículo parte de un dato objetivo y comprobable en la práctica privada en el proceso penal peruano, que es pasible de ser extendido a los países de la región indoamericana, en los que la conceptualización de la opinión pública acerca de la defensa técnica en un proceso penal, lindan con un ejercicio hábil no precisamente en hermenéutica y dogmática penal, sino en prestidigitación de los hechos y las pruebas, como es el hecho de que generalmente en los países latinoamericanos la declaración que realiza el imputado no es considerada un medio de prueba, sino un medio de defensa, por lo que en la motivación de la decisión jurisdiccional no es ponderada debidamente y, antes bien, se asume que obstaculiza la justicia y perturba el proceso, de donde ha surgido la inveterada, pero falsa idea de que el imputado tiene derecho a mentir. Esta problemática, en un sistema procesal penal garantista, atenta contra los derechos fundamentales del infractor y la víctima, así como no resulta funcional a la finalidad del proceso, cual es lograr un resultado satisfactorio al interés público de coadyuvar a la paz social merced a la solución del conflicto que todo crimen supone, a través de alcanzar la justicia para las partes involucradas.Los autores plantean una propuesta innovadora, que consiste en que la declaración libre y voluntaria del imputado, expresada sin coacción alguna, cuando no desea guardar silencio, sea garantizada y considerada como un auténtico medio de prueba y, por ende, valorada en conjunto con los demás medios de prueba.

THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF FERMENTED FOOD: A NARRATIVE REVIEW
Authors: Mohd Kamalul Abrar Nabil Husaini , Md Jaffri Juliana
Published: March 2023

Fermented foods are consumed in many parts of the world since ancient times and they include dairy products, meat, fruits, vegetables, and alcoholic beverages. These foods have been documented to be beneficial to human health due to the microbial content, which mainly consists of probiotics of various bacterial and fungal species. Fermented food probiotics can modulate gastrointestinal health, thereby affecting other bodily systems such as the immune system and brain functions. The microbial and nutritional content of fermented foods may also contribute to reducing cardiovascular risks and improving metabolic syndrome parameters. Fermented foods have antimicrobial properties that can aid in suppressing the growth of pathogenic microbes. In addition, fermented foods may impart beneficial effects to the nervous system, which include improvement of cognitive function and a decrease in the symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. Literature relating to the benefit of fermented foods on different aspects of human health is sparse which poses significant limitations on understanding the relationship between fermenting foods and human health. This paper describes different types of fermented foods containing the relevant micro-organisms associated with the improvement of several health conditions.

This study aimed to find out the readiness of Jordanian commercial banks to implement blockchain technology. The population of this study consisted of thirteen Jordanian banks. The study targeted the employees of the higher departments represented by the general managers and their deputies, and the employees of the middle departments represented by the directors and heads of the departments of each of the finance, internal auditing, and information technology departments in Jordanian banks. The study used the survey method to collect data and the SPSS Statistics 20.0 program to process and analyze the data. The most important results of the study were the presence of a statistically significant impact of the banks’ readiness with its dimensions (administrative readiness, professional readiness, organizational readiness, and legislative readiness) in the blockchain technology with its dimensions (the use of blockchain technology, hashing, information, and time imprint). As for the most important recommendations, it crystallizes the need for Jordanian banks to carry out a continuous updating process on the data within the block, and to apply periodic tests on the block operations to verify that there are no gaps in the chain.
Unfinished Business

Published: March 2023

How can microsocial rituals connected to a specific site be used as interaction templates for artistic purposes? And how can we distort such rituals artistically in order to make them memorable events? As artists, we regard distortion as the process that gives character and distinction to things and situations, as well as something that confuses and enriches information and interpretation. Through examples emerging from the operatic production Chronos’ Bank of Memories (2019–2022), set in empty shop stores with interacting visitors, we have recalled and fleshed out issues of rituality with distorted proportions. Due to the covid-19 pandemic, its production was interrupted and later on revived, which affected the work. This exposition covers aspects of both our artistic practice in general and this particular opera’s tendency to encompass distorted rituals. Commentary texts, images, and audio/video clips are arranged into an introduction and then three thematic strands in order to offer a reasoned overview of our work process.
Altodi Poltodi (This shore, That shore)
Authors: Savyasachi Anju Prabir  , Amrita Barua
Published: March 2023

Altodi Poltodi thinks through aspects of permeability and preservation, provoking an image of shadowy protector figures. How do they interact with a landscape, what could they want to protect and where do they mark their boundary lines? Drawing from the ancient stories of Rakhandars, mythic beings that guard or protect Goan villages, this collaborative process weaves personal stories with the land and history of Goa. Altodi Poltodi began as a conversation between two friends on a bridge over a river, in a state of suspension, connecting two shores – those of memory and the present.
[Re] Mapping of Being – Landscape/Cavescape/Humanscape
Authors: Nina Tsy, Nataliia Korotkova (IIAKO)
Published: March 2023

This exposition opens up the memory space of a landscape that carries a collective knowledge of the events of the Second World War in Sørøya, an isolated region far in northern Norway. Inside its landscape voids, the island conceals places that once became a refuge for half of the region’s inhabitants. In this research project, artists ask themselves what collective memory is and how the landscape opens up an alternative public space in its own depths. How do the caves of the island of Sørøya carefully hide and preserve the memory of the events of the Second World War, and how do these events fade into the shadows of Norway’s inhabitants’ social memory?
This exposition shows one chapter of our ongoing research project Dunke-Dunk, where the landscape is becoming the cavescape and the cavescape is becoming the humanscape through the artists’ long field trips to the region, their bodily immersion in caves, and an endless evagation searching for what preserves the memory of the touch of the Second World War through the [re]reading of archives, all the while collecting stories from the inhabitants and the terrain from an architectural and artistic perspective.
The Anonymous – A Documentary Memory and Transformation Project
Authors: Bengt Bok
Published: March 2023

De anonyma (The Anonymous) is a research project on memory and transformation that is divided into three parts: a book, a audio work, and a film. Over the past twenty years, Bengt Bok has returned several times to a former Nazi concentration camp north of Berlin. The first time he visited the site, he was shocked by the former death camp’s immediate proximity to a surrounding village. A community. Not only today but when the camp was still in use by the Nazis. How could people carry on living so nearby? He subsequently transformed the memories of his personal encounters, experiences and observations both in the camp and in the village into a book, which he, in turn, transformed into a sound work and, finally, into a film. In this exposition, Bok explores what became specific to, and distinctive about, each of the three different expressions or works — in other words, which narrative components remained, which disappeared, and which were added.
Poner el cuerpo – Making spaces public
Authors: Rossanaconda
Published: March 2023

In this exposition, I expand the notions and practices of collective body-action intervention (dance, performance, happenings, etc.) as a method to strengthen embodied knowledge, an instigation to engage in restorative encounters, and an invitation to intervene and disrupt political biases of (public) spaces. These methodologies propose alternatives for knowledge exchange/production beyond hegemonic, Eurocentric education.

In parallel, I reflect on my own practice and the anti-patriarchal and decolonial feminist political basis of the collectives of which I am part. We work with strategies and methodologies inspired by feminisms from the Global South, such as taking care of others as a practice that puts aside the patriarchal capitalist model of life that mainly separates, individualizes, prioritizes, and promotes competition and exploitation. We promote exchange, cooperation, and interdependence. I reflect on how these encounters summon the festive memory of our territories and the resilience of our* wounds.

Emotions of the bodies and the resistances will trigger our rituals in Abya Yala**, the flows and drifts will make this poetic-affective encounter, as will the skin itself.

*We: Here I refer to collectivity in a broad sense in each case: We as the collectives I am part of, we as women (cis, trans, nonbinary), we as immigrants, we as bipoc, etc
**Abya Yala: Self-determined name for the territories in the global south named "America" as a result of the colonizing process.
A History of Violence
Authors: Kai Ziegner
Published: March 2023

Through experimental writing and conceptual photography, my PhD uses my own biography to investigate the consequences of societal transformation processes in the German Democratic Republic (GDR). The focus is on the period of regime change known as the »Wendezeit« in the late 1980's to the early 1990's in East Germany. To date, this subject has been analysed primarily by scholars of history and cultural sciences, while approaches to this topic by artistic researchers are still rare.
With my research, I would like to reveal causes for the outbreaks of violence that accompanied this radical shift. The objective of my PhD is thus to submit critical testimony to the silence about seldom-discussed side effects of the transformation during and after the turnaround which Germans call the »Wende«. Based on the example of (my own) individual history, it demonstrates how authoritarian regimes and structures impacted on three generations of citizens, and how they affected the individuals. Throughout an experimental narrative, outbreaks ofsenseless violence are treated as side effects of disruptive transformation processes, just as are ambivalent situations in which actors of social change recognise themselves to be simultaneously victims and perpetrators of violent incidents. Since personal memories and historical documents served as the basis of this work, the central challenge of my artistic research was to carve out generalisable elements from individual examples, and to try out and experiment with various textual and photographic formats to find an adequate way to present the research material. Important sources of inspiration for this process included works like Alexander Kluge’s »Lebensläufe« (‘Case Histories’), Primo Levi’s »Ist das ein Mensch?« (‘If This Is a Man’), Walter Benjamin’s »Denkbilder« [Thought-Images], Klaus Theweleit’s »Männerphantasien (‘Male Fantasies’), Georges Didi-Huberman’s »Bilder trotz allem« (‘Images in Spite of All’), Claude Lanzman’s documentary film »Shoah«, and W.G. Sebald’s novel »Austerlitz«. The result of my research is an experimental book that portrays the multidimensional nature, polyphony and complexity of the subject, and offers the readers an opportunity to deal with the material in the way they desire, and perhaps to make it useful for their own work and research.
THE EFFECTS OF DIFFUSION ON THE MECHANISM OF PERISTALTIC FLOW AT SLIP BOUNDARIES WHEN INTERNAL JOULE HEATING IS PRESENT
Authors: Ravikumar S. , Khan M. Ijaz
Published: March 2023

This study’s primary objective is to demonstrate how diffusion-thermo
and thermal diffusion influence of peristaltic flow processes with slip
boundaries when joule heating happens from the interior. Several
operational factors and their impacts on the system were analysed, along
with the corresponding graphs. As slip parameters rise, the axial
pressure gradient fluid flow tends to drop. The pressure rate is
demonstrated to drop in the backward and peristaltic pumping regions as
the quantity of the second order slide parameter rises, whereas it rises
in the co-pump zone. As slip parameters rise, fluid temperature and
concentration tend to drop. Changes in the thermal diffusion and thermo
diffusion factors cause changes in the fluid’s temperature and
concentration. The Nusselts number can be increased by increasing the
Prandtl number, the thermo-diffusion constraint, the dufour number, and
the Schmidt number. However, this will result in fewer Sherwood number.
