Wind Energy Conversion System using Cascading H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter in High Ripple Scenario
Authors: S Chellam , S Kuruseelan , Gnanamalar A Jasmine
Published: March 2024

This paper presents wind energy conversion system using CHB MLI and phase interleaved boost converter to overcome high voltage and current ripple. Developments in power electronics technology have a direct impact on advances in wind energy conversion systems. WECS output voltage may fluctuate depending on wind speed. For WECS to maintain a constant output voltage, a power converter is required. This paper explains how to configure a phase-interleaved boost converter and voltage controller to maintain a stable intermediate circuit voltage in the system. The proposed cascading H-bridge multilevel inverter (CHB MLI) converts DC/AC using a novel topology. Separate DC sources are not utilizing the suggested topology. Multi-level inverters are operated by specific harmonic disposal pulse width modulation, or SHE-PWM are utilized. PMSG voltage, CHB-MLI voltage, boost converter voltage and rotor speed have seven different levels of simulated waveforms. Among the many advantages of three-phase alternating DC-DC boost converters, that are high efficiency, fast dynamics and very low current ripple. The output voltage is increased to 400 V using a three-phase interleaving converter, which also maintains a higher efficiency of about 98%. DC-DC power converters have proven to be essential components of many applications and topologies. The interleaving technique is necessary to address the main disadvantages of DC-DC power converters: increased voltage, reduced efficiency, and rippled current. Interleaved boost converters have several advantages, including lower switching losses, lower voltage and current ripple, increased efficiency, and more. To improve the converter's overall functionality, the "n" parallel converter is connected through an interleaved boost converter. This paper presents a performance analysis of a multiphase alternating boost converter to reduce high voltage and current ripple. MATLAB/Simulink is used for analysis and simulation of phase-interleaved boost converters.
Contemporary Intensive Methods of Steel Hardening in Cold Fluids
Authors: Kobasko Nikolai I.
Published: March 2024

In the paper, the new intensive quenching technologies are discussed which are based on controlling the self-regulated thermal process (SRTP) which exists for a long time if any film boiling is absent. It is rather intensive until convection starts. Despite the intense process (Kn > 0.8), when the heat transfer coefficient and Biot number tend to infinity, there are several ways of controlling the surface temperature of steel components by varying the boiling temperature of the fluid. To eliminate any film boiling process and provide SRTP, the author of the paper explores the resonance effect, a thin surface insulating layer that covers the surface of machine components and electrical negative forces to control the double electrical layer that is responsible for destroying the film boiling mode. Based on SRTP control it is possible to delay the transformation austenite into martensite or even accelerate these transformations. The most important are possibilities to control surface temperature during the boiling process. All of this opens great opportunities for increasing significantly service life of machine components and tools. In the paper also the simplified method of cooling time calculation is proposed. It is based on the new principles concerning pure transient nucleate boiling taking place during the hardening steel in cold fluids. Since the paper simply explains everything, results of investigations will be widely used in the heat-treating industry.

Authors: Veeramani Sindhu , Ramesh S. M. , Gomathy B.
Published: March 2024

Machine learning techniques have shown great potential in the medical industry, particularly in the field of neuroimaging and the identification of neurological illnesses such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). By utilizing machine learning algorithms, researchers aim to predict the type of disability and analyze the predicted variations using different types of predictive models. These predictive models can be trained on neuroimaging data to identify patterns and markers that are indicative of ASD. By analyzing these patterns, machine learning algorithms can help in accurately predicting the presence and type of ASD in individuals. This can be immensely valuable in early diagnosis and intervention, leading to better outcomes for individuals with ASD. Furthermore, the applications of machine learning in the healthcare industry extend beyond just prediction. Machine learning algorithms can also be used to analyze large amounts of medical data, identify trends, and assist in decision-making processes. This can help healthcare professionals in providing more accurate diagnoses, personalized treatment plans, and improved patient care. It is important to note that the success and accuracy of machine learning models in the healthcare industry depend on various factors, including the quality and quantity of data available, the choice of algorithms, and the expertise of the researchers. Ongoing research and advancements in machine learning techniques hold great promise for improving the accuracy and effectiveness of medical diagnoses and treatments.
Confessional contact zones of the Russian empire by counties and districts according to the results of the 1897 census
Authors: Dementiev Vitaliy
Published: March 2024

The first general population census of 1897 is the main source of information about the structure of the population of the Russian Empire at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries, including the religious composition of the population. At the same time, statistics based on the results of the census make it possible to carry out a cartographic analysis of the religious structure of the population not only at the level of provinces and regions, but at the lower administrative level (counties anddistricts). The purpose of the study is to assess the heterogeneity of the religious structure of the population of the Russian Empire at the level of counties and districts based on the results of the population census of 1897. For this purpose, a cartographic research method was used. The religious mosaic index was used as an indicator that allows dividing mono-confessional and multi-confessional territories and identifying contact zones between the areas of distribution of the main religions of the state (Christianity, Islam and Buddhism). Regions with a mixed religious composition of the population without a strong predominance of any one religion (confessional contact zones) were observed mainly in the border territories of the Russian Empire, especially in its western and southern parts. The center and north of the European part of the country, where the Orthodox population dominated, represented a mono-confessional (Orthodox) “core”.

Published: March 2024

На планете Земля существуют два качественно различных мира – неорганическая и органическая природа. Поиски их сходства и различия продолжаются до настоящего времени. Сходство определяется материальным единством мира. Проблема различий определяется тем фактом, что практически все критерии жизни можно найти среди естественных неорганических тел. И, тем не менее, существуют по меньшей мере два материально-энергетических свойства, характерные только для объектов живой материи и никогда не встречающихся среди элементов неорганической природы – молекулярная диссимметрия органических оптических изомеров и перманентное накопление внутренней свободной энергии, позволяющее безграничное размножение живых организмов. Эти особенности, а также отграничение живых естественных тел от окружающей среды с развитием независимой внутренней среды, сопротивление внешним воздействием позволяют предположить отдельное, независимое, самостоятельное существование элементов живой материи, обменивающееся с неорганической природой только сырьем и отходами производства.

Published: March 2024

This study is focused on the dynamics of service quality issues in 2020–2021, which highlight issues with inpatient nurses' patient care performance. This study aimed to gather proof of the connection between competence and training and nursing performance, with job motivation as an intermediary variable. A cross-sectional study involving 135 inpatient nurses was used in the research design using a straightforward random sampling method. The sampling strategy used probability and saturation samples to sample the complete population. The study's findings demonstrate that competency and training have a direct, favorable, and significant impact on work motivation and performance and that work motivation positively mediates the relationship between competency and training and nurse performance. That performance directly favors and significantly impacts work motivation. If there is work motivation, competence, and training can be higher to improve nurse performance.

Published: March 2024

This Fraud continues to be rampant in Indonesia. It follows an ACFE poll performed in 2019. This survey uncovers at least 239 fraud incidents in Indonesia, resulting in a total loss of IDR. 873,430,000,000.00. However, there is a belief that there is no fraud prevention in Indonesia. Indonesia has various Ministries/Institutions in charge of combatting fraud, including the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency. As one of the Ministries/Institutions that has the task of preventing fraud, fraud prevention at the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency must be able to run well. All leaders of Government Agencies are required to uphold integrity and ethical values, commit to competence, and create conducive leadership so that the variables integrity, competence, and internal control system are determined as independent variables that are tested for their influence on fraud prevention efforts with leadership as a moderating variable. The research results show that integrity and internal control systems positively affect fraud prevention efforts, while competency has no effect. Meanwhile, the leadership fails to moderate all variable relationships. Thus, in fraud prevention efforts, the most influential variables in this research are integrity and internal control systems.
MANAGING VALUE-ADDED TAX ISSUES IN VILLAGE BUDGET EXECUTION
Authors: Antares Fitradina , Nurhidayati Nurhidayati
Published: March 2024

In administering the Village Budget, one of the village treasurer's obligations is compliance with the tax obligations, including value-added tax (VAT). The concept of VAT collection by the village treasurer differs from the general mechanism where sellers of goods or services confirmed as taxable entrepreneurs are VAT collectors. The village treasurer's mechanism for collecting VAT is unique; the village treasurer requests a bill that includes the amount of VAT owed from the partner taxable entrepreneurs. Village treasurer compliance in carrying out tax obligations still needs to improve. From previous research, the factors influencing village treasurer tax compliance are low awareness and level of tax knowledge and the assumption that taxes are complicated. By using the qualitative descriptive approach, this study aims to explain how to manage finances, especially in collecting VAT, depositing VAT payable that has been collected, and reporting VAT. This study reveals that VAT administration is more straightforward than some village treasurers assume.
CORRELAÇÃO ENTRE A DEFLEXÃO INTRINSECOIDE, CLASSIFICAÇÃO CLÍNICA E PARÂMETROS ECOCARDIOGRÁFICOS EM CÃES COM DEGENERAÇÃO MIXOMATOSA VALVAR MITRAL
Authors: da Veiga Danielly Carla , Santos Guilherme Cavalli , Sousa Marlos Gonçalves
Published: March 2024

A degeneração mixomatosa valvar mitral (DMVM) costuma ser diagnosticada pelo ecocardiograma, porém o eletrocardiograma (ECG) pode sugerir alterações específicas e auxiliar no diagnóstico e no tratamento. A deflexão intrinsecóide (DI) é uma medida simples do ECG, que representa o início da despolarização ventricular e pode indicar a presença de sobrecargas e hipertrofia no ventrículo esquerdo. O objetivo deste trabalho é comparar dados prévios sobre condição clínica e ecocardiograma de cães com endocardiose de mitral e o valor da deflexão intrinsecóide do ECG, para buscar uma relação de concordância. Foram selecionados os arquivos de 45 cães anteriormente atendidos na rotina clínica do HV-UPFR. A estatística mostrou diferença relevante nos grupos B1, B2 e C nas derivações D2, D3, aVF, rV, V2 e V4 (P<0,05), o que permitiu classificá-los de acordo com o tamanho da DI, e esse resultado correspondeu à classificação do consenso de endocardiose de mitral em cães nesses estágios. Concluiu-se que há um aumento gradativo no valor da DI à medida que a DMVM avança, principalmente nos estágios B1, B2 e C, associado à sobrecarga e à hipertrofia ventricular esquerda, portanto esse parâmetro pode ser usado na classificação da doença.

For most people across the planet, rice is also considered as most beneficial crops in terms of fulfilling every day's energy and nutritional needs. Worldwide food safety is seriously threatened since severe limitations on rice output caused by both abiotic and biotic variables. Even though rice features much more developed regeneration mechanism than other agricultural crops, majority of desi cultivars continue to stay as impervious to genetic alterations and regeneration. Therefore, among preliminary steps in the transgenic plant generation necessitates to improve tissue culture procedures to produce viable plants via embryogenic calli mediated regeneration. In this study, we reporting that enhanced rate of plant regeneration was observed from mature seed-derived embryogenic calli of the indica rice cultivar MTU1010 following partially desiccation procedure. We studied the effects of several plant growth regulators on the efficiency of inducing embryogenic callus and regeneration of whole plantlets. The MS-CIM medium with 2.0 mg-1 2,4, D showed the highest callus induction percentage. Maximum rate of shoot regeneration (92%) was observed from 48hr partially dehydrated calli, when enriched with high cytokinin (2 mg/l kinetin) and lower auxin (0.5 mg/l NAA) concentrations. Calli that had been moderately dehydrated showed significantly greater regeneration rates than undehydrated calli. Upon being transferred onto a rooting medium, the well-rooted plantlets were shifted to shaded glass house for hardening. Hence, this approach is rather simple to apply and can be employed in genetic modification studies alongside other biotechnological endeavours.

Background The incorporation of early childhood development (ECD) into the mainstream school curriculum is one way to foster successful implementation of inclusive education. Learners who are in ECD were unintentionally ignored as the ECD were under administration of social service department.  Objectives To explore the incorporation of ECD into mainstream school curriculum. Thus enhance the implementation of inclusive education with the intention of providing support to learners with learning barriers. The other objective was to bring about maximum support to schools that needed support to cater the needs of learners with learning barriers.  Method To achieve the objective, a qualitative research approach was followed. The population of the study was made up of several crèches in Matlosana local education office. Data was collected using semi-structured interviews. Data was collected through interviews that were collected from crèches managers including owners. Semi-structured interviews were administered for data collection to four crèches. Challenges experience in the incorporation of ECD includes, lack of knowledge in the identification of learners with learning barriers, improper structures, lack of proper sanitations and lack of training in ECD practitioners, the establishment of ECD-based support team.  Results The study revealed the learners in ECD were indeed not catered for in terms of inclusive education as there were numerous challenges, inter alia improper infrastructure, lack of sufficient funding, lack of sanitation, most learners were without necessary documentation. The study also showed that since learners were incorporated in mainstream school curriculum there enough food provided by Basic Education department (section 21 provision). The study divulged that teachers who were teaching learners ECD were hired without proper qualification thus resulted in such teacher deviating from what they were supposed to teach i.e. according to annual teaching Plan (ATP).  Conclusion The incorporation of ECD in mainstream school curriculum was made priority in ensuring that quality and basic education is maintained especially to the young learners who are age (birth to five years old). However there are factor hindering the successful incorporation of ECD in mainstream. The discussed factors hindering the amalgamation of ECD into mainstream includes, structural challenge, poor financial support, lack and inadequate support from subject advisory services, insufficient training and development in ECD and lack and poor resources provision.  Contribution The incorporation of ECD into mainstream school result in learners been catered for especially those who are identified with learning barriers.

This research investigates the intricate relationship between firm performance and chief executive officer (CEO) overconfidence, drawing on data obtained from a comprehensive analysis of 733 publicly listed U.S. companies from 2015 to 2021. The study employs stock-option data, as inspired by the seminal work of Malmendier and Tate (2005), a robust metric to gauge CEO overconfidence. The empirical findings contribute significantly by establishing a positive correlation between firm performance and the manifestation of CEO overconfidence. This discerned pattern suggests that as firm performance improves, there is an accompanying increase in the likelihood of CEOs exhibiting overconfident behaviors in their decision-making processes. This insight significantly enriches our understanding of the complex interplay between organizational success and the psychological attributes of corporate leadership. Furthermore, the study unveils variations among different firm types, revealing that non-financial firms, particularly those exhibiting strong performance, are more prone to having overconfident CEOs compared to their counterparts in the financial sector. In addition to these insights, the research explores the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on this dynamic relationship, underscoring an intensified influence of firm performance on CEO overconfidence during this period. This investigation unveils the nuanced dynamics introduced by external disruptions, shedding light on how executive decision-making adapts to unprecedented challenges posed by global events.

2015-2023: Ocho años de política lingüística en Aragón Balance relativo al aragonés
Authors: Susín José Ignacio López
Published: March 2024

Tras las elecciones autonómicas de mayo de 2015, el pacto PSOE-CHA propició la creación, por vez primera en Aragón, de una dirección general de política lingüística que desarrollara lo establecido en el artículo 7 del Estatuto de Autonomía (EAA) y diera contenido a la que aparece como una de las primeras competencias exclusivas de la Comunidad Autónoma, la cuarta en el rango que establece el artículo 71 del EAA, solo por detrás de la propia organización de las instituciones de autogobierno y del derecho foral sustantivo y adjetivo. La dirección general fue suprimida por el nuevo gobierno PP-VOX, con el apoyo del PAR, tras las elecciones de 2023.En este artículo se hace un balance de estas dos legislaturas en las que, sin modificar la ley reguladora, se ha recuperado el nombre de las lenguas (aragonés y catalán de Aragón) que habían sido sustituidos en el periodo anterior por denominaciones geográficas ahistóricas y acientíficas (con los acrónimos LAPAO y LAPAPYP), y se ha llevado a cabo su desarrollo en los ámbitos de la promoción social y de la enseñanza.

In recent decades, technological advancements have reshaped industries, particularly in communication, consumer electronics, and medical electronics. The rise of the industrial internet of things (IIoT) has been transformative, revolutionizing industrial processes. Accurate node localization within IIoT-enabled systems is crucial for operational efficiency and informed decision-making. This chapter introduces the 3D adaptive stochastic control algorithm (ASCA), designed explicitly for IIoT environments with machine learning capabilities, including convolutional neural networks. The algorithm leverages received signal strength indicator data and sophisticated machine learning algorithms to accurately determine node positions in a 3D industrial space, offering a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative. Comparative evaluations show the superiority of the 3D ASCA algorithm, with an average localization error ranging from 0.37 to 0.7, surpassing benchmarks set by other algorithms.
