Methodologische und strategische Herausforderungen einer anti-imperialistischen transnationalen feministischen Ethik
Authors: Müller Mirjam
Published: August 2022

In diesem Artikel diskutiere ich zwei Herausforderungen für Serene J. Khaders Vorschlag einer transnationalen anti-imperialistischen feministischen Ethik. Die erste Herausforderung ist methodologischer Art und wirft die Frage auf, welche epistemischen und politischen Faktoren für Khaders nicht-idealer Theoriebildung eine Rolle spielen. Die zweite Herausforderung stellt sich mit Blick auf die Frage, wie stark Widerstand gegen sexistische Unterdrückung als Grundlage für transnationalen Feminismus tatsächlich ist. In diesem Zusammenhang diskutiere ich außerdem die Frage nach der Beziehung zwischen sexistischer Unterdrückung und Kapitalismus.
Dekolonialer Feminismus, Unterdrückung und Handlungsfähigkeit: Eine Antwort auf Hänel und Schuppert, Jugov, Reibold und Müller
Authors: Khader Serene J.
Published: August 2022

Ich habe Decolonizing Universalism mit der Absicht geschrieben, eine große Frage zu beantworten – vielleicht die größte normative Frage, die die transnationale feministische Wissenschaft beschäftigt: Wie können wir gleichzeitig Feministinnen und Antiimperialistinnen sein? Anders ausgedrückt: Gibt es eine normative Position, die eine gründliche Kritik des Imperialismus ermöglicht, ohne in sexistischen oder patriarchalen Apologetismus zu verfallen? In diesem Buch entwickle ich eine solche Position. In dieser Antwort versuche ich, einige der von Hänel und Schuppert, Jugov, Müller und Reibold aufgeworfenen Fragen zu beantworten und meine Argumente gegen ihre kritischen Anmerkungen zu verteidigen.
Die Nötigung zur Öffnung
Authors: Kempf Viktor
Published: August 2022

Seyla Benhabib vermag es mithilfe ihres Konzepts der „demokratischen Iteration“ das Prinzip der Volkssouveränität mit den moralischen Ansprüchen von Migrierenden auf Augenhöhe zu vermitteln. Dies gelingt ihr, weil sie „demokratische Iterationen“ als diskursive Aushandlungsprozesse unter Bedingungen der Öffentlichkeit versteht. Der Begriff der Öffentlichkeit bezeichnet, wohl verstanden, nämlich einen konstitutiv offenen Kommunikationsraum, in dem sich die diskursive Klärung des demokratischen „Wir“ immer schon unter prinzipiellem Einbezug „des Anderen“ vollzieht. Bereits John Dewey, Hannah Arendt und Jürgen Habermas haben diese konstitutive Offenheit der Öffentlichkeit herausgestellt und damit die migrationsgesellschaftliche Struktur des Begriffs der Öffentlichkeit theoretisch entfaltet. Angesichts gegenwärtiger Abschottungsversuche westlicher Demokratien gegenüber Migrationsbewegungen stellt sich allerdings die Frage, ob der Begriff der Öffentlichkeit mehr darstellt, als ein normatives Ideal, das realen Tendenzen einer anti-migrantischen Abschließung politischer Kommunikationsräume bloß ohnmächtig gegenübersteht. Dieser Aufsatz argumentiert, dass dem nicht so ist: Dem Begriff der Öffentlichkeit lässt sich auch als einer Idee im Sinne Hegels habhaft werden. Er lässt sich als eine Logik der Öffnung rekonstruieren, die sich aufgrund einer immanenten Nötigung der Praxis selbst aufdrängt und nur durch eine destruktive Spirale aus Widerstand, Repression, Regression und Nihilismus unterdrückt werden kann. Ich werde auf dem Wege einer sozialphilosophischen Integration kommunikationstheoretischer (Habermas) und radikaldemokratischer (Rancière) Erkenntnisse abschließend zeigen, dass migrantische oder postmigrantische „Gegenöffentlichkeiten“ diese immanente Nötigung hervorrufen. Die Nötigung objektiviert sich wiederum daran, dass der fortgesetzte Ausschluss von „Gegenöffentlichkeiten“ zu einer krisenhaften Struktur „systematisch verzerrter Kommunikation“ (Habermas) führt.
Digitally Shared Experience?
Authors: Weydner-Volkmann Sebastian
Published: August 2022

Anhand der Mechanismen „Filterblase“ und „ Echokammer“ in digitalen Medien beleuchtet der Artikel, inwiefern Deweys funktionaler Öffentlichkeitsbegriff für die aktuelle Demokratiekrise mögliche Lösungsperspektiven erschließen lässt. Eine Rekonstruktion von Deweys Begriffen der Öffentlichkeit und der geteilten Erfahrung legt offen, dass der Aspekt der situativ-leiblich eingebundenen Erfahrung in der (an Dewey orientierten) Forschungsdebatte zu digitalen Öffentlichkeiten nicht adäquat berücksichtigt wird. Darauf aufbauend lässt sich im Widerspruch zu einigen Debatten-Beiträgen zeigen, dass eine stärkere Rückbindung an lokale Lebenskontexte eine Voraussetzung dafür ist, diesen problematischen Mechanismen digitalisierter Medien zu begegnen.
Einleitung: Epistemische Ungerechtigkeiten
Authors: Hänel Hilkje C.
Published: August 2022

Die Debatte um epistemische Ungerechtigkeit verbindet normative Gerechtigkeitstheorien mit erkenntnistheoretischen Theorien und stellt somit die Art von wichtigen Fragen, die in den letzten Jahren sowohl innerhalb als auch außerhalb der Wissenschaft internationale Aufmerksamkeit erfahren haben. Verwiesen sei hier etwa auf soziale Bewegungen wie #MeToo und #BlackLivesMatter zeigen. Theorien der epistemischen Ungerechtigkeit (sowie verwandte Theorien wie Epistemologie des Unwissens, feministische Erkenntnistheorie und Standpunkttheorie) können sowohl epistemische Praktiken analysieren und einen Beitrag zu Gerechtigkeitstheorien und sozialer Epistemologie liefern, als auch zu adäquateren Verständnissen von existierenden Ungerechtigkeiten beitragen. In dem hier vorliegenden Schwerpunkt werden Beiträge zu eben solchen bislang wenig erforschten Ungerechtigkeiten sowie neue Diskussionsbeiträge zur Debatte um epistemische Ungerechtigkeiten geliefert.

The Effect of Different Light-curing Units and Tip Distances on the Polymerization Efficiency of Bulk-fill Materials
Authors: Al Nahedh HNA , Al-Senan DF , Alayad AS
Published: August 2022

Problem Statement

In an average class II posterior preparation, the curing light tip is placed at a distance from the restoration surface that far exceeds the 1-mm manufacturer’s recommendation. This distance can have potentially detrimental effects on the curing efficiency of the light-curing unit as well as the properties of the resin-based composite restoration, especially at the bottom of the cavity preparation.

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of various types of light-curing units (LCUs) and the different curing distances on the degree of conversion (DC) and the surface hardness of bulk-fill composite materials.

Methods and Materials

A total of 390 specimens of three resin-based composites (RBCs) were fabricated. Two bulk-fill RBCs, including Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior (3M ESPE GmbH, Seefeld, Germany) and Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill (Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein), as well as a Filtek Z350 XT nano-filled composite (3M ESPE GmbH, Seefeld, Germany), were utilized. In this study, the Vickers microhardness number (VMN) and the DC were evaluated at 2 and 4 mm thicknesses. Polymerization for 20 seconds was performed using two high-power light-curing units, namely the polywave Bluephase G2 light-emitting diode (LED) LCU (Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein) and the monowave Elipar Deep Cure S LED LCU (3M Oral Care, St Paul, MN, USA) at 0, 2, and 4 mm distance between the curing tip and the RBC surface. The results were analyzed using the two-way analysis of variance method. Scheffe’s post-hoc multiple comparison tests were used to determine significant differences between the materials, the LCU, and the tip distances.

Results

The highest DC (70.17) was shown by Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior at a distance of 0 mm, whereas the lowest DC (45.99) was measured for the conventional Filtek Z350 XT at a 4 mm distance. Moreover, higher VMNs were shown by Filtek Bulk Fill and Filtek Z350 composites at 0 mm distance than by the Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill composite material when cured with a Bluephase G2 LCU. For all materials, a significant decrease in the DC and mean VMN values was observed at a 4 mm distance in comparison with 0 and 2 mm distances.

Conclusions

The DC and VMN values among the studied bulk fill materials were more significantly affected by the material composition and curing protocols. The increased distance from the light tip has a detrimental effect on the mechanical properties of composite resin materials. Significant differences were observed in the curing efficiency of the two LCUs investigated.
Effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) and Fermented Organic Manure on Yield and Quality of Forage Sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor L. Moench) Var. Panarunder Saline Conditions
Authors: Osman Abusuwar Awad
Published: August 2022

A field experiment was conducted over two years (2015\2016) at Hada Al-Sham Experimental Research Station of King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. This study aims at evaluating the effect of AMF (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi) applied separately and in combination with fermented poultry and cow manures on forage yield and quality of forage Sorghum var. Panar grown in saline soil and irrigated with saline water. Results showed that significant differences were reported for the AMF combined with both poultry and cow manures over the control treatment in all parameters studied including plant height, number of leaves per plant, leaf area, leaf firing ratio, yield and nutritive value. The effectiveness of the treatments were as follows: AMF mixed with both poultry and cow manures (PCM-AMF)> AMF mixed with poultry manure (PM-AMF)> AMF mixed with cow manure (CM-AMF)> AMF alone(AMF)> control(S) but for leafing firing ratio the order was reversed. The increments in dry forage yield were118, 82, 64, and 26% for PCM-AMF, PM-AMF, CM-AMF and AMF, respectively in comparison to the control. The nutritive value of the forage was significantly improved by the fungal and poultry manure treatments. It can be concluded from the results of this study that organic manures, particularly poultry and cow manures, mixed with Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi had positive effects in increasing forage yield and improving quality of the cereal forage Panar under Soil and water salinities prevailing in arid regions. To overcome plant production limitations in saline arid conditions, it is recommended to use organic manures and mycorrhizal fungi, as they are relatively cheaper, available and effective.

Authors: Degete Ashenafi Gemechu
Published: August 2022

Tef plants are prone to be attacked by tef leaf rust (Uromyces eragrostidis) disease under Ethiopian conditions. Tef urediniospores are considered the most economically important in maintaining disease from season to season and used as inoculums source for supporting natural infection of the disease. The longevity of freshly collected urediniospores of the tef leaf rust disease that is caused by Uromyces eragrostidis collected from different late maturing tef genotypes were studied under different temperature. Inoculation of the seedling was done with three different protocols. The first inoculation was done mixing urediniospores with tween20 and distilled water. The second inoculation was done mixing urediniospores with isoparaffin oil with distilled water and the third seedling received inoculation mixing urediniospores with distilled water. The urediniospores were placed in different refrigerators adjusted at different temperature reading from 5°C to 25°C. The collected urediniospores were kept at temperatures between 5°C and 25°C at 5°C increments. Therefore, the aims of this study are to determine the longevity of tef rust urediniospores under different temperatures and develop appropriate inoculation protocol for tef rust disease. The results revealed that 5 and 10°C were relatively the most favorable for long-term preservation for tef leaf rust urediniospores and the inoculation protocol for the seedling of tef genotypes were done using urediniospores mixed with distilled water and isoparaffin oil was best according to this study at green house.

Onion is one of the most important food crops and cultivated in many countries in different climatic zones, including temperate, tropical and sub-tropical regions. Yield parameters like harvest index, total bulb yield, marketable bulb yield, unmarketable bulb yield, total bulb number, marketable bulb number, unmarketable bulb number, and bulb quality parameters like small size bulb number, medium size bulb number and large size bulb number. Generally, the study showed that the mean marketable bulb number, the mean unmarketable bulb number and the mean total bulb number per dunam were calculated and found to be 17, 395.84, 24, 270.83 and 41, 666.67 respectively. Similarly the average marketable bulb yield, the average unmarketable bulb yield and the average total bulb yield per dunam were also calculated and found to be 6.18 ton/dunam, 2.44 ton/dunam and 8.62 ton/dunam respectively. On the other hand, the mean value of Small size bulb number, the mean value of Medium size bulb number and the mean value of Large size bulb number per dunam were found to be 270.83, 11, 250.00 and 250.00 respectively with the average harvest index of 70.84 %. For the potential onion growers or farmers in the study area special advice and training is essential on how to produce and get high yield of onion. Thus, onion (var. uri) growers in the study area can benefit if they are distributed well with the over all packages and production technologies. Therefore, further studies need to be conducted on various green houses, under different temperature conditions to generate more reliable information and acceptable practical evidences on onion production improvement in the Arava region

The Helminths are still a highly prevalent cause of disease in the world, especially toxocariasis, which results from the infection of Toxocara canis and Toxocara cati. The infection by these parasites occurs accidentally, leading the human being into becoming intermediate hosts of the life cycle. Toxocariasis can present itself in different ways, according to the place where the larva is lodged. This review evaluated epilepsy as an outcome of toxocariasis in pediatric patients. The bibliographic review of the scientific literature was carried out in the library of the Centro Universitário do Planalto Central Professor Apparecido dos Santos (UNICEPLAC), as well as in the PUBMED, MEDLINE, LILACS and COCHRANE databases. Articles in English, Portuguese and Spanish were considered, without date restriction. The course of neurological symptoms results from post-treatment complications, due to the direct presence of the larva in the Central Nervous System (CNS) and/or tissue inflammation, with the outcome of focal (related to granulomas) or generalized (associated with immunological reaction) seizures. Other common manifestations are sleep and behavioral disorders or meningoencephalitis with different prognosis. Laboratory and imaging tests, such as computed tomography and nuclear magnetic resonance, stands out for the diagnostic method. Therefore, the use of antiparasitic drugs, as well as parasitic control in dogs and cats, are an important form of treatment. Neurotoxocariasis is not yet fully elucidated as a complication of toxocara infection, especially when it is associated with epilepsy. Thus, it is necessary that further studies are carried out in order to understand the effects of this parasitosis in patients of preschool and school age.

Published: August 2022

Predicting the lifetime of LED light sources becomes quite challenging because the time to failure is long. The LM-80 and TM-21 methods are the main used by companies to establish the product lifetime. Accurate the RUL prediction can facilitate predictive maintenance. Predictive maintenance allows estimating when a failure will occur. In this context, the maintenance can be planned in advance, eliminating unplanned outage and maximizing the useful life of the equipment. In this work, the LM-80 and TM-21 methods are used for the acquisition and extrapolation of luminous flux data, which are entered into an algorithm developed from an exponential degradation model. With the result obtained, it is possible to establish actions that allow predictive maintenance in LED street lighting controlled by a remote management system and achieve a longer service life.

Authors: Rubio-Clemente A  , Velásquez L  , Chica E
Published: August 2022

During the design process of an efficient wave energy converter (WEC), a crucial aspect is its performance evaluation in wave channels able to generate dynamic waves simulating the ocean conditions. This work presents the design of a water channel that simulates the wave conditions of the Pacific Ocean in Colombia. The designed channel has a rectangular cross-section with width, length and depth equal to 0.49 m, 7.35 m and 1.47 m, respectively. In the channel, the steepness ratio can vary from 0.0134 to 0.544 for a wavelength of 1.47 m. Additionally, the channel was computationally modelled in order to know the behaviour of the waves generated. In this regard, an efficient WEC able to take profit of the Colombia's capacity for producing electricity from waves is feasible, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gases and, therefore, to sustainable development.
Fast Pyrolysis oil from plastics waste as a Fuel for Gas Turbine Power Plants
Authors: A. Palomar-Torres  , L. Lesnik  , E. Torres-Jiménez  , G. Bombek
Published: August 2022

Plastic production and usage increase every year due to its low cost, practicality, and flexibility. Despite the advantages of plastics as a raw material, it represents a serious environmental problem when it becomes waste. Most of the plastic is produced from petrol. Its chemical composition provides the opportunity to be transformed into a fuel via a pyrolysis process, with or without a catalyst. The pyrolysis process yields solid, liquid and gas fractions. The liquid fraction has properties similar to those of conventional fuels and can be used in internal combustion engines. However, although fast pyrolysis is cheaper, it produces lower quality products (longer carbon chains) not suitable for these types of engines. In the present paper, main properties of oils from fast pyrolysis are analysed and compared to those of Heavy Fuel Oils (HFO) to demonstrate that they represent a feasible alternative to decrease the impact of plastics in the environment and to obtain an alternative fuel to feed a power plant.

Published: August 2022

Induction motors are used in all industries and are the major element of energy consumption. Faults in motor degrade the motor efficiency and result in more energy consumption. Bearing faults are reported to be the major reason for the motor breakdown and a lot of papers have been reported to focus on bearing fault diagnostics. However, low classification accuracy is the main hurdle in adopting the available fault classification algorithms. This paper has presented a novel classification algorithm using the Catboost classifier and time domain features. The developed algorithm was tested on the laboratory test setup. The fault classification accuracy of 100 % was achieved through the proposed method.

Unsupervised Feature Selection (UFS) methods try to extract features that can well keep the intrinsic structure of data. To make full use of such information in this paper we use one of the simplest graph sparsification strategies MST (Minimum Spanning Tree) for the task of UFS. A novel graph structural information method is proposed for unsupervised feature selection, we simplify and preserve correlation between features via MST through a structure that simultaneously captures the local and global structure of data, and then use graph structural information directly to achieve the subset representative features with minimum redundancy and more discriminative power. To show the effectiveness of our method, some of the most representative and referenced UFS methods are used for conducting experiments on some benchmark datasets. Experimental results verify that the proposed feature subset selection algorithm is effective, more specifically at the running time.

The present study investigated the 1effects of both castration and manipulation of castrated1 subjects with 0.1 ml of 50µg/kg/day of testosterone at 3 weeks of age for 6 weeks on the pheromonal and histological structure of male mice preputial gland.   The preputial gland results from the control intact group showed that six essential pheromonal compounds are present, whereas the glandular structure revealed well-developed acini with basement membrane and connective tissue around most of them. These findings also showed that castration has deleterious effects on the essential pheromonal compounds which are reduced to two compounds only (the α.-Farnesene and 1- Tetradecanol) as well as the histological sections from such subject appeared many atrophied vacuolated acini. On the other hand, treatment of castrated animals with such dose of testosterone did not show any marked effects on the essential pheromonal compounds but it was able to restore the activities of acinar development as showed by many hypertrophied alveoli.

Published: August 2022

Intelligent monitoring of a computer network provides a clear understanding of its behaviour at various times and in various situations. It also provides relief to support teams that spend most of their time troubleshooting problems caused by hardware or software failures. This type of monitoring ensures the accuracy and efficiency of the network to meet the expectations of its users. However, to ensure intelligent monitoring, it is necessary to start by automating this process, which often leads to long and costly interventions. The success of such automation implies the establishment of predictive maintenance as a prerequisite for good preventive maintenance governance. However, even when it is practiced effectively, preventive maintenance requires a great deal of time and the mobilization of several full-time resources, especially for large IT structures. This paper gives an overview of the monitoring of a computer network and explains its process and the problems encountered. It also proposes a method based on machine learning to allow for prediction and support decision making to proactively anticipate interventions.

Published: August 2022

One of the most important factors triggering the occurrence of traffic accidents is that drivers continue to drive in a tired and drowsy state. It is a great opportunity to regularly control the dynamics of the driver with transfer learning methods while driving, and to warn the driver in case of possible drowsiness and to focus their attention in order to prevent traffic accidents due to drowsiness. A classification study was carried out with the aim of detecting the drowsiness of the driver by the position of the eyelids and the presence of yawning movement using the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture. The dataset used in the study includes the face shapes of drivers of different genders and different ages while driving. Accuracy and F1-score parameters were used for experimental studies. The results achieved are 91 % accuracy for the VGG16 model and an F1-score of over 90 % for each class.

This article uses structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze and study the factors affecting corporate financial risks. At the same time, the regression analysis model is used for risk warning. The empirical test effectively proves that the formation of corporate financial risk is closely related to the industry environment in which it is located. After estimating the model’s parameters, it is found that monetary policy, enterprise-scale, market supply and marketing, and macroeconomic factors are the main factors that affect the financial risks of enterprises.
Founding Authority: Authority, the Authoritative, and John Marshall's McCulloch
Authors: Gilhooley Simon
Published: August 2022

Lacking the powers of the “purse or the sword,” the U.S. Supreme Court is particularly dependent upon maintaining “authority” in order to ensure recognition of its constitutional rulings. Such authority allows the Court to operate against the majority and to survive as a political institution despite lacking a basis in popular will. In one understanding of the Court's position, that authority sits outside of politics, and calls upon a pre-existing and accepted relationship in order to navigate the absence of power and force. Linking authority to a pre-existing relationship and a non-political role, the Supreme Court can be seen as countermajoritarian by design. Calling on an authority which sits outside of political life, by necessity it lacks attachment to the political majority of any given era, and instead binds the nation to a constitution which sits above and beyond politics. However a second approach to authority emphasizes not a relationship to a past moment or pre-political relationship but rather the collective recognition of authority. This view of authority looks to Flathman's conception of “the authoritative,” defined in terms of “the web of conventions” that link power and authority, to situate authority within the current moment. Examining a central moment within the development of the U.S. Supreme Court's authority, the case of McCulloch vs. Maryland, this article argues that it is the second view of authority that most readily captures the authority of the Court. Through a close reading of Chief Justice John Marshall's opinion in McCulloch vs. Maryland, the article shows that while appeals to a founding moment were important within that opinion, these appeals can be productively understood as reflective of the authoritative ethos of the early American Republic. Framed in this manner, the opinion sought to generate authority not by a link to the past but through connection to a contingent sense of the authoritative. Crucially, such an approach positions constitutional authority within the contemporary political realm and offers the possibility of a constitutional politics less anchored in a particular historical moment of founding.

Onion (Allium cepa L.) is a highly cross pollinated crop that needs insect pollination (entomophily) for optimum seed set. In the present study, more than 120 insect species were noted to visit onion flowers, out of which fifty-nine species were collected through in-situ sampling technique and identified up to species level. The Indian bee (Apis cerana indica) was the most abundant insect pollinator visiting onion flowers in the study location. The pollination behaviour and foraging activity of A. c. indica were assessed, and the pollen foragers were observed to be swift flyers visiting a significantly higher number of flowers per minute during the peak flowering period and spending less time per flower (3 seconds) to collect nectar from deep seated nectaries of the flowers. The seed yield enhancement assessed through entomophily and artificial pollination methods showed that the open pollinated flowers recorded the highest yield statistically, followed by A. c. indica and A. mellifera pollinated flowers. However in artificial pollination treatments, sponge puff pollinated flowers recorded significantly high seed yield per hectare and percentage seed set per umbel, followed by camel brush, hand gloves (cloth) and hand gloves (rubber). In conclusion, all the cross pollination treatments were statistically significant on the closed pollination treatment concerning to the entire yield parameters calculated.
Right from Wright: A View on N. T. Wright’s Approach to the New Testament
Authors: Mocan Beneamin
Published: August 2022

The writings of the prominent biblical scholar N. T. Wright are much debated upon throughout the world. His currently in progress ‘Christian Origins and the Question of God’ series intrigued some and pleased others. There are a lot of articles and books evaluating either positively or negatively his writings. This is all because of the huge amount of information and of the carefully constructed methodology that permits Wright to continue his project despite the critiques brought against him. This article strives to offer a positive account of Wright’s project, having its focus on his methodology. The author suggests that the key of understanding his methodology lies in his theory of reading the New Testament texts and the history related to them. It is further suggested that this theory of reading pushed Wright toward the well-known category of ‘worldview’. This puts him in the position of bringing together the ‘then’ and the ‘now’ worldviews which, in the author’s view, constitutes the major contribution of Wright’s project.
Human Rights in Two Eastern Orthodox Official Documents: An Analysis from a Public Theology Perspective
Authors: Stanciu Teofil
Published: August 2022

This paper represents a critical analysis of Eastern Orthodox perspective on Human Rights in two important official documents issued by some of the most prominent patriarchates: Moscow and Constantinople. They are compared and looked at from a public theology’s point of view as outlined by Max Stackhouse. At the same time, in this article it will be emphasized the fact that the same Eastern Orthodox theological tradition is to be credited for two significantly different approaches on the topic at hand. The recorded differences are to be interpreted in such a manner as to account for a possible paradigm shift in Orthodox ‘rights talk’. But this shift is more evident in contact with Western environment where the Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition is just one of the religious and public voices in a pluralist, globalized and secularized society.
The Davidic Messiah in the Old Testament Tracing a Theological Trajectory
Authors: Martin Daniel D.
Published: August 2022

The present article revisits the issue of messianism, particularly as it finds its expression in the Davidic kingship tradition, that is, the belief concerning a Davidic Messiah. Since Old Testament messianic hope is inseparably associatied with the dynasty of David a study that traces the various perspectives concerning the Davidic Messiah chronologically and canonically can bring a contribution to this important Old Testament theme, too often neglected. Thus, the study shows that the belief in the coming of a Davidic Messiah is a prominent eschatological theme in the Old Testament. Its roots can be traced back to the historical covenant made by Yahweh with David, which receives hyperbolic and symbolical dimensions in the royal Psalms, and a full-fledged eschatological orientation in prophetic writings. The monarchic prophets: Isaiah, Micah, Amos, and Hosea draw on the covenant promises to David to ground their message regarding the coming of a ‘new David’, who would destroy the wicked, protect the poor and oppressed, and institute an eternal era of peace, justice, and righteousness. In the context of the Babylonian exile, Jeremiah and Ezekiel foresee that God will bring forth a righteous ‘shoot’ of Davidic line to reunite the nation and shepherd God’s people. In the post-exilic period, Zechariah underscores the promise that David’s son will build a house for Yahweh, moving from the initial historical focus on Zerubbabel and his role, to the eschatological expectation of the one and only messianic figure that will bring the final restoration.
The Karst Landscapes of Beni Mellal Atlas (Central Morocco): Identification for Promoting Geoconservation and Tourism

Published: August 2022

The Atlas of Beni Mellal is located in the Moroccan central High Atlas, characterized by an important geo-diversity that attracts tourists every year. However, the number of visitors remains limited due to the lack of the promotion means, enhancement and mediation of this heritage. The obtained data indicate that the studied area preserves a great number of karst geosites, such as ruiniform landscapes, caves, poljes, sinkholes, Karren, shaft cave and many remarkable reliefs such as canyons and cliffs. This work concerns the inventory, the quantitative evaluation and the enhancement of the remarkable geomorphosites. The results reveal the presence of 21 sites, including six karst forms; five ruiniform landscapes and one karren form, one enviable panoramic viewpoint and five karst springs, four caves, two travertines, two waterfalls, and one structural relief geosite; canyon, and one tepee structures. However, these sites are not protected against all types of degradation, because the general public does not recognize them. These karst forms are very vulnerable, they cannot reproduce quickly, and their deterioration leads to their permanent disappearance. That is why this heritage must be the object of a particular attention of the whole community. The valorisation of these geomorphologic assets is the proposal of a number of circuits and geo-tourist routes from the perspective of local and integrated development.

Published: August 2022

Polyvascular disease affects up to 20% of atherosclerotic patients and portends a significantly higher cardiovascular risk, especially in terms of ischemic events. Therapeutic options mainly focus on aggressive pharmacotherapy and risk factor control. We present the case of a male obese patient with coronary artery disease, chronic renal disease, and refractory hypertension who underwent serial contrast imaging to document the extent and severity of his systemic atherosclerosis and was consequently referred for cardiovascular surgery to address total occlusion of the abdominal aorta. We further discuss specific features complicating the medical management of patients with severe hypertension, extensive atherosclerosis, and renal disease.
3 Key notions for road transport sustainability: Resilience, Climate action and Energy transition
Authors: Dimnet Eric
Published: August 2022

In this paper, we study the relationship between resilience and sustainable development in order to determine the place of road resilience in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as climate action and energy transition.

This study shows that road resilience is inseparable from adaptation to climate change, its mitigation and the energy transition. Therefore we address the issue of adapting road infrastructure to climate change and to the decarbonization of transport. It also emphasizes that resilience of road infrastructure is a necessary condition for any adaptation strategy and reminds us that the contribution of road transport to climate change mitigation overlaps in practice with the decarbonization goal resulting from energy transition.
Roundabout with a strong U-Turn traffic
Authors: Lobază Mihai Gabriel
Published: August 2022

The traffic capacity of a roundabout depends very much on the existing traffic volumes on each approach, each direction of travel having an impact on the other movements in the intersection, especially on those with which it conflicts.

Roundabouts where the turning maneuver has significant values, such as roads / streets where the left turn is allowed at long distances, substantially influence the capacity of the approach with which it intersects. This maneuver includes calculating delays and vehicle queues at all other arms, resulting in a reduction in their capacity and, ultimately, in the entire intersection.

As can be seen from the results of the analyzed roundabout, U-turn (which replaces the left turn movement) produces a significant increase in delays on the rest of the approaches, thus preventing further development of the community.
Countering Illegibility: A Brief History of Forced Evictions in Postsocialist Romania
Authors: Zamfir George Iulian
Published: August 2022

Forced evictions have been recognised as a relevant process in Romanian post-socialist urban transformations. Housing privatization, including restitutions, represents the key driver. Some attempts in grasping the scale of the process have already been made. This article brings extensive quantitative data stemming from national and local levels, which can support improved estimations of the scale: reports of the National Union of Bailiffs and answers to public information requests from multiple municipalities; archival data, local press monitoring and accounts of the process in the city of Cluj-Napoca. At least 100 thousand forced evictions are estimated to have taken place at national level between 1990-2017, comprising several hundred thousand individuals, the Roma population being disproportionately affected. Qualitative data produced through activist research complements the picture. The findings contribute to the debate regarding postsocialist urban transformations, indicating that the role of the state in the production of the housing market through forced evictions-based gentrification has been insufficiently acknowledged. The results are relevant to policy debates, as well as to housing activist practices2.
