Authors: Lilechi Melvine Chepkoech
Published: January 2025

Futuristic supply chain officers now have a unique opportunity to future - proof their supply chains by recognizing and integrating three new priorities: resilience, agility, and sustainability. Traditionally focused on cost, capital, quality, and service, supply chains must now also address the challenges of disruption, meet rapidly evolving customer needs, and support a clean, socially just economy. Historical examples, such as Toyotas rapid recovery post - disaster and Nikes technological advancements during the COVID - 19 pandemic, illustrate the importance of these new priorities. Agile supply chains leverage digital technologies, smart automation, and skilled, flexible teams to enhance responsiveness and adaptability. Successful integration of these priorities requires a foundational redesign of supply chain strategies, with a shift in mindset towards comprehensive risk management, agility, and sustainability metrics alongside traditional performance indicators.

Authors: Arora Samiksha , Sengottaiyan Krishnamoorthy
Published: January 2025

Urban designing, as we know is an approach through which a city can be developed as productive place for its citizens. We being the sole planners, work for the people and hence, I believe that cities should be planned to develop it in a specific agenda keeping its people at prior. India is a country with diverse religion and cultures. Urban streets play a crucial role in how this growing number of people in our cities circulate about, interact, conduct business, and so forth. Many Indian cities have streets where people of the city socialize and spend time. Therefore, the design of streets is of utmost significance. Aim of this study is to understand the spatial ethnography on Udhana magadalla road in Surat city and analyses the spatial and social forces that triggered the development of a street as a public space in Surat city. The main factors that play a role in this thesis are people and hence primary data collection is considered the base.
Six Sigma to Enhance Time Efficiency and Quality in Nepal's Construction Sector
Authors: Mostafa Singh Samir
Published: January 2025

The world has taken the word “construction” as nation developing phenomena. The country’s economic and social development depends upon its rate of productive construction. The productivity is acquired if time and quality of construction has taken into consideration. There were various methods of increasing the construction productivity such as Project Management Technique- Critical Path Method, Program Evaluation and Review Technique etc. These techniques some-how increased the construction efficiency but it didn’t obtain the required expectation. Thus, Six-Sigma- as a philosophy, which was considered in this paper. The five phases of Six-Sigma will provide the systematic way to increase the efficiency. Define(D), Measure(M), Analyze(A), Improve(I) and Control(C) are the five phases of Six Sigma. The paper is based on two work portions, one with questionnaire and other is practical use of Six Sigma in construction industry. The questionnaire was sent to 100 individuals out of which only 60 questionnaires were retrieved. The obtained questionnaire was evaluated with the RII (Relative Importance Index) method. The case study in which six- sigma was used is of internal tiling work for a residential building. The flat was of 2BHK and 2 numbers of flat were observed. The initial tiling work was evaluated without any direction and the sigma level was 2.08. After applying the Six Sigma Concept, the obtained level was 3.7. Hence, this research paper demonstrate that Six-Sigma is able to optimize and improve time and quality of construction projects.
Study on Shear Characteristics and Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Calcareous Silt Solidified by Fluorogypsum-Slag-Based Binders
Authors: Cheng Tengqin , Dai Wenting , Zhang Renchao , Liu Yunxiao
Published: January 2025

Calcareous silt exhibits a higher concentration of calcium carbonate. Due to its inherently inferior engineering properties, calcareous silt necessitates solidification treatment prior to utilization. The shear strength of calcareous silt serves as a pivotal metric for evaluating the calcareous silt’s capacity to withstand shear deformation, which is of paramount importance for assessing soil stability and engineering performance. To explore the engineering properties of calcareous silt solidified with a fluorgypsum-slag-based(F) binders, this research utilized such an agent to solidify calcareous silt. Direct shear tests were subsequently conducted on the solidified calcareous silt samples to analyze the shear behavior of the silt at varying curing durations and solidifying agent dosages. numerical simulations of the ultimate bearing capacity of foundations were carried out using the Abaqus numerical modeling software. The experimental findings reveal that the F group possesses superior shear characteristics compared to cement group, with a 28-day cohesion value of 1365.36 KPa and a friction angle of 39.62° for the F20 cohort. The F group exhibits a tendency towards brittle failure influenced by aging and dosage, whereas the cement group demonstrates plastic failure traits. The rate of cohesion enhancement in the F group diminishes with aging but escalates with increased dosage. Numerical simulations indicate that the F group exhibits a notably higher ultimate bearing capacity of 5460.75 KPa, underscoring its excellent engineering efficacy.

Authors: Xun Ailing , Chen Yingyu , Zhang Lu , Xu Chao , Zou Meng , Ren Luquan
Published: January 2025

In-situ utilization of lunar soil resources to create construction units such as bricks is one of the best methods for establishing architectures on the moon, avoiding the exorbitant costs associated with transporting materials and massive equipment from Earth. In the paper, bricks with grid structures made of lunar soil simulants are fabricated via direct ink writing (DIW), a material extrusion additive manufacturing technique. The lunar soil simulant ink is prepared by mixing lunar soil simulant powders with polylactic acid (PLA)/dichloromethane (DCM) binder in a volume ratio of 74:26 and then extruded from a nozzle with a diameter of 410μm to form cylindrical bricks following the preset printing path. The as-printed bricks are sintered under a vacuum condition at 1100 ℃ to enhance their mechanical properties. The sintered bricks exhibit dimensional shrinkages of around 10-15% due to PLA pyrolysis and sintering neck formation. Surprisingly, two of the sintered bricks display significantly greater mass loss ratios than the others, which may be due to gas generation from certain minerals during high-temperature sintering. This has been confirmed by microscopic analyses conducted on both the lunar soil simulant and fabricated bricks using scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The mechanical behaviors and failure modes of as-printed and sintered bricks are evaluated, showing compressive strengths of 5-6 MPa and 5-27 MPa, respectively. The elastic modulus and compressive strength of sintered bricks are positively correlated to their relative densities. In addition, bricks featuring mortise and tenon joint structures are also successfully manufactured, enabling direct jointing of different bricks without any binding material, which provides a novel approach to constructing lunar structural components.
Exploring the Link Between Adolescent Risk Attitudes and Fear of Failure: A Preliminary Study
Authors: Chakraborty Soumen
Published: January 2025

The study assesses the relation between individual risk attitudes and fear of failure. We measured risk attitudes using the risk attitude scale (Weber and Betz, 2002) and fear of failure using the Performance Failure Appraisal Inventory (Conroy et al., 2002).51 students of ages 14 - 18 years took part in the survey where they completed these two questionnaires with slight modifications. The individual scores were averaged and Cronbach's alpha test was employed to test internal reliability. Pearson's correlation and linear regression analysis was done keeping fear of failure as the independent variable. The questionnaires had good internal reliability. The correlation and regression analysis both indicated a moderate positive relation but the p - values were higher than the standard 0.05 so the relation was not considered statistically significant. The findings motivate us to conduct further research on the topic with a larger sample size to explore the relation more deeply which is imperative to human decision making.
Sounds of the Desert: Bach's Interpretation of Abderrahmane Munif's Salt City
Authors: Chattopadhyay Rabindranath , Yadav Ashok Kumar
Published: January 2025

In contemporary literary studies, the application of critical theories can provide deeper insights into complex narratives and their socio - cultural implications. This research paper examines Abdelrahman Munif's Cities of Salt through the lens of Mikhail Bakhtin's theories of dialogism and heteroglossia. By employing a close reading methodology and textual analysis, the study reveals how Munif captures the complex interplay of cultural, social, and economic forces shaping the transformation of a traditional society under the pressures of modernization. The paper explores how the diverse perspectives and linguistic variations within the novel reflect the socio - political dynamics and ideological conflicts triggered by the discovery of oil. Through a Bakhtinian framework, the research highlights the novel's depiction of the tensions between tradition and progress, the displacement of communities, and the resulting cultural disintegration. This study demonstrates how Cities of Salt serves as a polyphonic narrative that not only critiques the impact of industrialization on the environment and indigenous Bedouin but also engages in a broader dialogue about the costs of globalization and economic exploitation. By situating the novel within the context of Bakhtin's concepts, the paper provides an in - depth understanding of Munif's literary approach and its relevance to contemporary discussions on cultural preservation and socio - economic justice. This study will examine excerpts from the first volume, AL - Teeh1, which best align with the study's argument.

A Sociolinguistic Study on Linguistic Deviation in Apple’s Advertisement
Authors: Lin Qianyao , Hu Xiaoqiong
Published: January 2025

Apple Inc. is a globally leading company in the electronics and technology industry, whose remarkable success is attributed to the high quality of its products. However, the popularity of any product cannot be achieved without its advertising. Linguistic deviation is a common phenomenon and language strategy in English advertisement. English advertisement, as a means to attract consumers, uses a lot of language deviation, which makes the advertising language novel and unique, and stimulates people’s strong desire to make a purchase. This paper adopts a qualitative analysis method and studies six types of linguistic deviations in Apple’s advertisement----phonological, lexical, graphological, grammatical, semantic deviation and deviation of register under the guidance of Leech’s language deviation model and further explores the social factors behind these linguistic deviations in Apple’s advertisement. The study finds that phonologically, Apple’s advertisements frequently employ rhetorical devices such as alliteration, repetition, and consonance to create a harmonious and catchy rhythm. Lexically, the advertisers coin novel terms to communicate the innovative nature of the products. Graphologically, they offer readers a fresh experience by altering the visual form of words, even if it involves intentional misspellings. Grammatically, Apple’s advertisements tend to favor simple sentences and imperatives, often eschewing traditional grammatical norms. Semantically, the advertisers excel at utilizing personification and metaphor to bridge the psychological gap between the audience and the products. Finally, at the register level, they introduce unconventional expressions, despite their apparent mismatch with the electronics context, to highlight the uniqueness of Apple’s uniqueness.

Characteristics of Japanese Public Service Announcements and Their Chinese Translation
Authors: Xie Ziyi
Published: January 2025

Public service advertising is a cultural narrative that focuses on social issues and serves the public interest. Public advertisements are cultural objects that focus on social issues and serve the public interest. Advertising language variation is a special linguistic phenomenon, fully reflecting the special linguistic purpose and intention of the advertiser’s creator. This paper will take the example of Japanese public service advertisements as an entry point to analyse the linguistic features of Japanese public service advertisements and the analysis of the thematic content of the advertisements, as well as to study the translation methods of Japanese public service advertisements. Through reading a lot of literature and conducting research, we finally found that Japan’s public service announcements have developed for a long time and are unique in terms of expression, theme, and rhyme, which are inextricably related to Japan’s economic, cultural, and political background. At the same time, Japanese PSAs also have their limitations. By translating Japanese PSAs into Chinese and summarising their translation methods, we can take the best and discard the worst.

Published: January 2025

Migration is a transformative process that brings both opportunities and challenges, particularly for individuals from distinct cultural and religious backgrounds. This study focuses on the psychological health of Namdhari Sikh migrants from Ellenabad Block in Sirsa, Haryana, and explores how they navigate the psychological impacts of migration, including loneliness, anxiety, depression, and acculturation stress. The Namdhari Sikh community, known for its unique religious beliefs and cultural practices, faces particular challenges in maintaining their identity and adapting to the norms of host countries. The study examines how cultural adaptation, identity struggles, and social support systems influence mental health outcomes. Data were collected through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 755 migrants who relocated to countries such as Canada, Australia, the UK, and the USA. The results highlight significant psychological challenges, with 50% of participants reporting loneliness and 15% experiencing anxiety and stress. Cultural conflicts and the loss of religious practices were also common concerns, as 49% of migrants faced difficulties in maintaining their spiritual practices. Social support, particularly from family and religious communities, emerged as a key factor in mitigating psychological distress. Economic pressures, such as the need to send remittances and job insecurity, also contributed to stress. The study emphasizes the importance of cultural identity preservation and social support networks in enhancing the mental well-being of migrants. These findings provide valuable insights for policy development and community support initiatives aimed at addressing the unique challenges faced by marginalized migrant groups.

Published: January 2025

Iron deficiency (ID) is believed to be the most common dietary deficiency globally. There is ongoing debate about how ID impacts thyroid function and autoimmunity, particularly in women of reproductive age and during pregnancy. During pregnancy, women undergo various physiological changes that can affect their overall health. Two common conditions that can impact pregnant women are iron deficiency anaemia and thyroid dysfunction.It is essential for pregnant women to undergo regular screenings for both iron deficiency anaemia and thyroid dysfunction to ensure early detection and prompt treatment. By monitoring these conditions closely, healthcare providers can help pregnant women maintain optimal health throughout their pregnancy. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between thyroid function tests in pregnant women and iron deficiency anemia. Additionally, we aimed to determine the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia among pregnant mothers. We conducted a prospective cross-sectional study at ACS Medical College and Hospital's Departments of Pathology and Obstetrics and Gynecology. Participants were recruited from antenatal clinics, and we collected demographic and clinical data, along with blood samples for laboratory analysis.

In our study, we found no statistically significant differences in mean age, BMI, and gestation period between the two groups. However, all blood parameters except anti-TPO showed significant variations. The prevalence rates among pregnant women were 20% for subclinical hypothyroidism, 16.7% for overt hypothyroidism, and 13.3% for subclinical hyperthyroidism. Additionally, there was no significant relationship between TSH and ferritin levels. The study shows that many pregnant women have subclinical hypothyroidism, indicating a high prevalence of thyroid dysfunction. It also finds a direct link between thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and ferritin.

In conclusion, a comparative study of iron deficiency anaemia and thyroid function test in pregnant women highlights the importance of early detection and management of these conditions. Regular prenatal care, including routine blood tests and screenings, is essential for monitoring the health of pregnant women and addressing any potential concerns promptly.

Published: January 2025

Literature search indicated that the preparation of helical carbazole has been reported by Shin group but the synthetic route is entirely different and only one such derivative has been reported. .it was therefore decided to attempt this route for the synthesis of pentayclic carbazole-based helicenes. It was realized that these molecules were unlikely to yield sufficiently crowded helicenes for possible separation and chiral application. It was therefore decided to restrict the studies to synthesis of carbazole based pentahelicene derivatives and their luminescence properties. In this paper the successful preparation and characterization of aza [5] helicene using palladium mediated double N-arylation reaction of BINOL Triflate and Aniline derivatives has been presented.

Geometallurgy: Future Directions
Authors: Tusa Laura , Frenzel Max , Pereira Lucas , Thiele Sam , Tolosana-Delgado Raimon , Gutzmer Jens
Published: January 2025

Editor’s note: The aim of the Geology and Mining series is to introduce early career professionals and students to various aspects of mineral exploration, development, and mining in order to share the experiences and insight of each author on the myriad of topics involved with the mineral industry and the ways in which geoscientists contribute to each.

We outline the potential to adopt geometallurgical concepts during early mineral exploration, particularly during scoping studies, rather than later during feasibility studies or exploitation when costs are higher. The approach is rooted in the increasing capabilities of drill core scanning technologies. Continuous drill core scanning data can now be generated efficiently and at reasonable cost. Validating and calibrating these data with high-resolution quantitative imaging of a suite of localized test samples, e.g., from scanning electron microscopy-based image analysis, allow the mineralogy and microfabric of drill core to be quantified. This quantitative information can then be used for more accurate geologic domaining of a potential orebody. The resulting geologic domain model then provides the basis for sample selection and blending that is essential for representative beneficiation test work. These test results can then be combined with emerging particle-based process modeling techniques that are predictive and can be designed to help understand and tackle metallurgical challenges in unlocking a mineral resource. This will assist in defining geometallurgical domains, using both geologic and technological constraints. However, this ambition is currently limited by several knowledge gaps. Arguably the most crucial issue concerns the forecasting of comminution responses, including particle sizes and compositions, based on the measured mineralogy and microfabric of the ores. Other challenges relate to the resolution and speed of available core scanning technologies and the incorporation of physical constraints into particle-based beneficiation models. Once these issues have been resolved, we expect substantial improvements in the efficiency and predictive power of geometallurgy, which should enable its application during earlier stages of exploration, with greater reliability at each decision stage during a development.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kepastian hukum terkait sertifikat hak waris yang belum atas nama hak milik dalam sistem pendaftaran tanah di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan hukum normatif, dengan sumber data berupa dokumen peraturan dan kajian hukum yang relevan. Data dikumpulkan melalui telaah dokumen primer, seperti undang-undang dan peraturan pemerintah, serta data sekunder dari kajian literatur terkait. Pendekatan konseptual dan filosofis digunakan untuk memahami esensi kepastian hukum dalam sertifikat tanah. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif-kualitatif untuk menilai peran pendaftaran tanah dalam menjamin kepastian hukum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat tentang pentingnya pendaftaran dan perubahan nama pada sertifikat sering kali menimbulkan konflik dalam kasus warisan. Meskipun sertifikat tanah berfungsi sebagai bukti legal, kegagalan untuk memperbarui nama pemilik dapat menyebabkan sengketa hukum dan hilangnya kepercayaan terhadap sistem pendaftaran tanah. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya kesadaran masyarakat tentang proses pendaftaran tanah serta perlunya penguatan kebijakan untuk mencegah konflik di masa depan.

Permasalahan limbah konstruksi dan tingginya ketergantungan pada agregat alam mendorong penelitian penggunaan beton daur ulang sebagai alternatif material yang berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi potensi beton daur ulang sebagai pengganti sebagian agregat kasar dalam campuran beton, dengan fokus pada kekuatan tekan dan kuat tarik belah. Metode eksperimen digunakan dengan variasi penggantian limbah beton sebesar 10%, 20%, 30%, dan 40%, serta beton kontrol tanpa limbah beton. Pengujian dilakukan pada umur 7 dan 28 hari untuk kekuatan tekan, serta pada umur 28 hari untuk kuat tarik belah. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan limbah beton hingga 40% menghasilkan kuat tekan yang setara atau melebihi desain kuat tekan 25 MPa, sementara penggantian 10% meningkatkan kuat tarik belah sebesar 1,99%. Namun, penggantian di atas 10% menyebabkan penurunan kuat tarik belah yang signifikan, mencapai 12,8%. Hubungan antara kuat tekan dan kuat tarik belah menunjukkan korelasi yang lemah (R=0,63), yang mengindikasikan adanya pengaruh faktor berbeda. Penelitian ini memberikan wawasan penting tentang potensi beton daur ulang sebagai material konstruksi berkelanjutan, dengan implikasi untuk mengurangi limbah konstruksi dan konservasi sumber daya alam. Pengembangan lebih lanjut diperlukan untuk meningkatkan performa kuat tarik belah dan mendukung penerapan beton daur ulang pada proyek berskala besar.
