Ash Content of Containerboard. Problems and Solutions
Authors:   LLC Sukhonsky Cardboard and Paper Mill, Zhirnov Denis N. , Dernova Elena V. , Gorazdova Victoria V. , Dulkin Dmitry A.
Published: November 2023

This article covers the study of the nature of ash content of containerboard from waste paper, as well as fractional composition of ash. With increasing use of waste paper with white top layer and deterioration of conditions of collecting and storing waste paper at the storing fields, there is an increase in mineral impurities in the incoming waste paper. This fact leads to increased load on cleaning equipment and accelerated wear of working parts of sorters and mills. Ash content includes all mineral impurities without any division into fractions or sources of occurrence. Reducing the total ash content of products becomes quite difficult, because suppliers of cleaning equipment guarantee the efficiency of removing only those mineral contaminants, the size of which is greater than the a certain value (70…100 microns). Standard methods for determining ash content of paper and cardboard do not imply the possibility of determining the fractional composition. To solve this problem, the authors applied a method for determining the fractional composition of granular materials in a certified laboratory. The method of sample preparation for analysis was developed by the authors independently. Based on the results of the research, it was possible to identify the volume of the ash fraction that can be separated by means of cleaning equipment. This volume is mainly quartz sand of various degrees of grinding, and the other part of ash content is the filler, calcium carbonate, which cannot be effectively removed from the technical process due to the small particle size. To determine the content of calcium carbonate, qualitative and quantitative research methods were used - treatment with hydrochloric acid followed by washing and weighing of the resulting sludge. This test methodology and the results of the research work can serve as a basis for the need to install additional or upgrade the existing cleaning equipment. Unfortunately, at present there are no studies concerning abrasive ability of the main filler – calcium carbonate, and its influence on service life of the corrugator. Also, at the moment there are no data concerning critical size of ash particles, which lead to accelerated wear of the rolls. At the same time, determination of critical particle size is important from the point of view of setting up and upgrading of cleaning equipment of the stock preparation department of a typical paper mill processing waste paper raw materials.

Sirenomelia: Relato De Caso E Revisão Da Literatura
Authors: Hiar Leticia Sinatora , Neto Attilio Brisighelli
Published: November 2023

Introdução: A sirenomelia é uma condição caracterizada pelo desenvolvimento anormal do corpo caudal de um feto, com fusão parcial ou completa da extremidade inferior, sendo também conhecida como Síndrome da Sereia. A anomalia é uma malformação grave multissistêmica, geralmente envolvendo os sistemas gastrointestinal, geniturinário, cardiovascular e musculoesquelético. A causa exata da sirenomelia é desconhecida, e acredita-se que fatores ambientais e genéticos possam desempenhar um papel no desenvolvimento da referida anomalia. O prognóstico da sirenomelia é ruim, com uma sobrevida média de menos de uma semana e mais da metade dos casos terminam em natimortos.

Objetivo: Relatar um caso de sirenomelia atendido em nosso Serviço.

Método: Trata-se do relato do caso de uma gestante atendida no Serviço de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia do Hospital Universitário São Francisco na Providência de Deus – HUSF, localizado na cidade de Bragança Paulista - SP.

Relato do Caso: Paciente primigesta, 17 anos, encaminhada ao Serviço de Medicina Fetal após a realização de ultrassonografia morfológica durante a gravidez que demonstrou múltiplas malformações, incluindo agenesia renal e oligoâmnio severo. A criança nasceu prematura e com sirenomelia, falecendo quatro horas após o parto. Análises da placenta e do cordão umbilical revelaram anormalidades na implantação do feto, além de uma artéria umbilical única.

Conclusão: A sirenomelia é uma anomalia congênita rara e fatal, caracterizada pela fusão das extremidades inferiores, frequentemente associada a malformações adicionais. Sua etiologia é pouco compreendida e os possíveis fatores de risco incluem diabetes materno, exposição a fármacos teratogênicos, suscetibilidade genética, infecções e idade materna. Com base no caso descrito, sugere-se que a realização de ultrassonografia é crucial para o diagnóstico precoce e tomada de decisão frente a casos de sirenomelia. No mais, a conscientização sobre a prevenção da gravidez na adolescência e o controle da glicemia em mães diabéticas são essenciais para reduzir a incidência da síndrome.
Problems of using the evidence collected during the investigation in criminal proceedings regarding the crime
Authors: Kaplina Oksana , Sharenko Svitlana
Published: November 2023

The article raises issues relevant to judicial practice related to the interpretation and application by investigative judges of Art. 298-1 of the Criminal Procedure Code «Procedural sources of evidence in criminal proceedings on criminal misdemeanours». The introduction of the institution of criminal misdemeanour into the national legal system led to significant changes in the normative regulation of the procedural order of inquiry, however, the short-term practice of implementing the norms of criminal procedural legislation regarding the investigation of misdemeanours revealed problems of a law enforcement nature, which are partly caused by the lack of proper legal regulation, legal uncertainty of individual norms, as well as the unity of judicial practice. In particular, Art. 298-1 of the Criminal Procedure Code provides for new, compared to the ordinary procedural order, sources of evidence (explanations of persons, results of a medical examination, a specialist's opinion, indications of technical devices and technical means that have the functions of photo and film shooting, video recording, or means of photo and film shooting, video recording). In addition, the CPC established that the procedural sources of evidence collected during the inquiry cannot be used in criminal proceedings regarding the crime, except on the basis of the decision of the investigating judge, which is issued at the request of a prosecutor. The lack of a legal definition in the given provision of the article led to the lack of uniformity in the practice of considering prosecutors’ requests regarding the possibility of using sources of evidence collected during the inquiry. Based on the conducted generalisation of the practice of examining motions of investigative judges, the authors of the article came to the conclusion of the need to interpret the considered article in its unity, not allowing two different approaches regarding the possibility of creating a separate procedural regime in relation to traditional evidence (Article 84) and those inherent only to misdemeanour proceedings (Article 298-1 of the CPC). In addition, in the article, the authors draw attention to the violation of the norms of the current legislation regarding the improper subject of petitioning the investigating judge, provide recommendations regarding the subject of judicial control in accordance with Art. 298-1 of the СPC, draw attention to problematic points related to the implementation of the provisions of Art. 298-1 of the Criminal Procedure Code in the case of combining materials of criminal proceedings regarding a crime and a misdemeanour, propose the content of the prosecutor's request to the investigating judge, and consider other issues relevant to judicial practice.

Acquittals in the Practice of Ukrainian Judges
Authors: Zhukovska Oleksandra
Published: November 2023

The article suggests the results of the study on the experience of Ukrainian judges in passing acquittals. In Ukraine, approximately 0.37 percent of the accused are acquitted. If the general local court passes an acquittal, the chances of such a decision gaining legal force are few, because on average three out of four acquittals are overturned by the appeals court. There is an opinion in the scientific community that judges who previously worked in law enforcement and prosecutors’ offices have an accusatory bias, which is the reason for the small number of acquittals. During the next stage of judicial reform in Ukraine, the legislative body even blocked the access of professionals with work experience in the above-mentioned bodies in order to prevent them from entering the newly created judicial institution – the High Anti-Corruption Court. However, the Ukrainian scientific community has not investigated yet whether such judges really acquit fewer people than their colleagues with other legal experience. Therefore, the work of the Higher Anti-Corruption Court was analyzed, and 262 Ukrainian judges reviewing criminal proceedings were interviewed on the condition of anonymity. The results of the research show that 82 % of judges have no previous experience working on the side of the prosecution. It was also found that most judges, on average, pass 1–5 acquittals during their careers.

But a significant group of judges did not acquit people at all. At the same time, most of them are among those who have previous experience working in the bar: as many as 25 percent. However, judges who have previous experience working as investigators – all passed acquittals already during their judicial career. Judges who previously performed the function of criminal prosecution, after changing the type of activity, do not pass a lower number of acquittals than judges who previously performed the function of defense. In addition, there are not many such judges, and therefore, even hypothetically, it is impossible to explain the small number of acquitted persons in the country by their activity. Therefore, the impact of previous experience on the prosecution side is greatly exaggerated.

Key words: acquittal, work experience, judge, lawyer, prosecutor, investigator, poll
Administrative and legal practice of the Ukrainian judiciary on the application of Art. 173-2 the Code of Administrative Offenses of Ukraine during the Russian-Ukraine War
Authors: Poshtarenko Oksana
Published: November 2023

Abstract. The article explores the dynamic of domestic violence in Ukraine during the war and specific problems in the application by courts of Article 173-2 of «Commitment of domestic violence, gender-based violence, failure to comply with an urgent restraining order or failure to notify the place of temporary residence» of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Ukraine. The article notes that during the war, in 2022, there was a 40% increase in appeals to the police of Ukraine regarding domestic violence compared to the previous year.

The author draw attention to the fact that courts, when considering of domestic violence, do not always recognize a child who witnessed (eyewitness) domestic violence as a victim of such violence; sometimes domestic violence is treated as a minor act, domestic violence is equated with a conflict over children, which leads to the closing of proceedings or refusal to issue a restraining order.

In the article, the author came to the conclusion that the practice of the European Court of Human Rights, in which it develops and concretizes the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights, should become a reference point for the Ukrainian judiciary in solving cases related to domestic violence.

The Istanbul Convention provides for the introduction of additional changes to national legislation, acts as a reference point for establishing criminal responsibility for violence in any of its manifestations, therefore, scientific research is needed in the field of criminalization of any violence, which will expand the possibilities of protection the rights of victims of violence in international court, will contribute compliance with procedural legal guarantees of person who are prosecuted for such offenses, comprehensive protection of their rights and freedoms, as well as approximation of Ukrainian legislation to international standards in this area.

Good Faith Interpretation (Interpretatio ex Bona Fide) under the legislations of the EU Member States: Comparative Analysis
Authors: Iryna Mykolaivna Sharkova Iryna
Published: November 2023

The article reviews the acts of civil law of continental European countries, in which the norms governing the process of statutory and contractual interpretation are enshrined. Civil codes, valid in France and Italy (Romance Legal Family), as well as in Germany and Austria (Germanic Legal Family), were selected for analysis.

According to the results of the study, the following trends are revealed: for the interpretation of legislative acts, a method of textualism is mostly realized, and for interpretation of contracts — the principle of honest. «Daughter» Legal Doctrines (Italian and Austrian) adhere to a more formalized approach and mainly use special (casual) norms.

The current Civil Code of Ukraine (CCU) does not contain a legal definition of the general concept of interpretation, but only provides for the interpretation of the «contents of a transaction» (Article 213 CCU), «agreement provisions» (Article 637 CCU), «wills» (Article 1256 CCU). Thus, the Art. 213 CCU aimed at legalizing the principle of textual (literal) interpretation. It is nessesary to provide changes in the official legal structure of the priority of the literal interpretation, enshrined in this norm. The rule of good faith interpretation must be constructed, as it is generally recognized in European countries.

Key words: civil law, comparative analysis, good faith interpretation, Interpretatio ex Bona Fide, literal interpretation.

From Reintroduction to Rewilding: Autonomy, Agency and the Messy Liberation of the European Bison
Authors: VASILE MONICA
Published: November 2023

In the age of the sixth extinction, human interventions to save endangered species have become bigger, bolder and costlier than ever. Yet, policies of species conservation have also favoured non-intervention, furthering the idea that humans have tampered
too much
with wildness and wilderness. This article examines a reintroduction of European Bison (
Bison bonasus
, also known as wisent) into the South-Western Carpathians of Romania in the 2010s. It compares it with longer-term recovery efforts in the Białowieża forest in Poland and reveals how interventions and non-interventions have been practised in the conservation history of this species. I trace the complexities of lived reintroduction processes, both contemporary and historical. I show that practices of recovering European bison have (slowly) shifted away from a controlling approach to reintroductions inspired by livestock breeding, and towards a hands-off rewilding approach. Yet, entangled human–wildlife histories, in which management has been paramount, challenge contemporary non-intervention rewilding paradigms that advocate for the autonomy and agency of wildlife. Reintroduction managers walk a fine line between intervention and relinquishment, care and containment, permanently recalibrating human–animal relationships.

Large-scale exoplanet surveys like the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission are powerful tools for discovering large numbers of exoplanet candidates. Single-transit events are commonplace within the resulting candidate list due to the unavoidable limitation of the observing baseline. These single-transit planets often remain unverified due to their unknown orbital periods and consequent difficulty in scheduling follow-up observations. In some cases, radial velocity (RV) follow up can constrain the period enough to enable a future targeted transit detection. We present the confirmation of one such planet: TOI-2010 b. Nearly three years of RV coverage determined the period to a level where a broad window search could be undertaken with the Near-Earth Object Surveillance Satellite, detecting an additional transit. An additional detection in a much later TESS sector solidified our final parameter estimation. We find TOI-2010 b to be a Jovian planet (M

Assuming a simple model with no albedo and perfect heat redistribution, the equilibrium temperature ranges from about 360 to 450 K from apastron to periastron. Its wide orbit and bright host star (V = 9.85) make TOI-2010 b a valuable test bed for future low-insolation atmospheric analysis.

Superclusters are the largest massive structures in the cosmic web, on tens to hundreds of megaparsec scales. They are the largest assembly of galaxy clusters in the Universe. Apart from a few detailed studies of such structures, their evolutionary mechanism is still an open question. In order to address and answer the relevant questions, a statistically significant, large catalog of superclusters covering a wide range of redshifts and sky areas is essential. Here, we present a large catalog of 662 superclusters identified using a modified friends-of-friends algorithm applied on the WHL (Wen–Han–Liu) cluster catalog within a redshift range of 0.05 ≤ z ≤ 0.42. We name the most massive supercluster at z ∼ 0.25 as the Einasto Supercluster. We find that the median mass of superclusters is ∼5.8 × 1015
M
⊙ and the median size ∼65 Mpc. We find that the supercluster environment slightly affects the growth of clusters. We compare the properties of the observed superclusters with the mock superclusters extracted from the Horizon Run 4 cosmological simulation. The properties of the superclusters in the mocks and observations are in broad agreement. We find that the density contrast of a supercluster is correlated with its maximum extent with a power-law index, α ∼ −2. The phase-space distribution of mock superclusters shows that, on average, ∼90% of part of a supercluster has a gravitational influence on its constituents. We also show the mock halos’ average number density and peculiar velocity profiles in and around the superclusters.
Taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus Ganoderma (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) in Costa Rica
Authors: Mardones Melissa , Carranza-Velázquez Julieta , Mata-Hidalgo Milagro , Amador-Fernández Xaviera , Urbina Hector
Published: November 2023

Ganoderma species are well recognised by their significant role in the recycling of nutrients in ecosystems and by their production of secondary metabolites of medical and biotechnological importance. Ganoderma spp. are characterised by laccate and non-laccate, woody basidiocarps, polypore hymenophores and double-walled basidiospores generally with truncate apex. Despite the importance of this genus, its taxonomy is unclear and it includes several species’ complexes with few circumscribed species and incorrect geographic distributions. The aim of this work was to provide detailed morphological descriptions together with phylogenetic analyses using ITS sequences to confirm the presence of seven species of Ganoderma in Costa Rica: G. amazonense, G. applanatum s.l., G. australe, G. curtisii, G. ecuadorense, G. oerstedii and G. parvulum. This is the first study that integrates morphological and phylogenetic data of Ganoderma from Central America and a key of the neotropical species. Besides, the distribution range of G. curtisii, previously reported from North America and G. ecuadorense from South America, is expanded to Central America.

De la rue à la route : retour sur le système viaire de Thérouanne/ Tervanna, caput civitatis Morinorum
Authors: Merkenbreack Vincent
Published: November 2023

Le chef-lieu de la cité des Morins, Thérouanne, fait l’objet depuis quelques années d’un regain d’intérêt grâce à l’archéologie préventive ; les prescriptions se sont accumulées depuis la fin des années 1990 et les différentes opérations menées, tant de diagnostics que de fouilles, ont livré quantité de données nouvelles. Désormais nous commençons à mieux circonscrire et connaître Tervanna , à l’instar de la trame urbaine et des franges de la ville. Ainsi, de nouvelles rues ont été découvertes remettant en exergue la question de la trame urbaine de la cité. Ces rues caractérisées également en périphérie de la ville deviennent pour certaines des routes et l’on retrouve leurs traces encore de nos jours par la résilience de leur tracé sous diverses formes. C’est donc l’occasion pour nous de faire un point sur ces rues, sur ces routes et leur devenir, de partir de la ville vers la campagne (ou inversement) au travers des opérations archéologiques récentes et d’une approche pluridisciplinaire.
La structuration du paysage littoral morin : l’exemple de Marquise
Authors: Merkenbreack Vincent
Published: November 2023

Les investigations archéologiques menées depuis une quinzaine d’années sur le territoire de Marquise, non loin de Boulogne-sur-Mer, ont permis de collecter un grand nombre de données nouvelles et ce, sur un vaste secteur en terme de superficie. Il en résulte la possibilité d’analyser cette portion du littoral morin sous l’angle de la structuration du territoire à l’époque romaine. Les données archéologiques concernant la Protohistoire récente sont minimes sur le territoire de Marquise mais les récentes opérations d’archéologie préventive nous permettent de commencer à appréhender ces vestiges sur cette partie du littoral morin. Ainsi, on observe une translation d’une occupation domestique et des espaces funéraires entre La Tène finale et le Haut-Empire. Avec les données d’occupation romaine précoce, la présence de tombes monumentales utilisant des blocs de remploi ou encore la mise au jour d’un mithraeum , le statut de Marquise reste néanmoins à préciser mais une structuration rigoureuse du paysage est avérée et ce, de la fin du i er s. av. J.-C. jusqu’au iv e s. ap. J.-C.

Published: November 2023

Une fouille préventive réalisée sur la commune de Dainville au lieu-dit « Le Champ Bel Air », à l’ouest d’Arras (Pas-de-Calais) a permis de mettre au jour une occupation datée de l’Âge du Bronze final composée de plus de 170 fosses et trous de poteaux. La faune recueillie lors de la fouille de cet ensemble, bien que limitée en nombre de restes, nous apporte un éclairage intéressant sur les pratiques agro-pastorales qui se sont déroulées sur le site. Elle tend à montrer que le site de Dainville « Le Champ Bel Air » présente quelques particularités qui le distinguent de site régionaux comparables, notamment en ce qui concerne les pratiques liées à l’élevage porcin. D’autre part, une industrie osseuse variée a été découverte au sein de plusieurs de ces structures. Au total, ce sont dix-huit restes organiques travaillés qui ont été mis au jour, dont huit en os et 10 en bois de cerf. La fosse silo 215 a livré à elle seule un lot de quatre haches-marteaux de même facture. Une cinquième, de facture différente, a également été découverte dans une autre fosse.

Empires en Europe et nations modernes : avec la guerre russe, le retour de l’empire ?
Authors: de Kaniv Nathalie
Published: November 2023

La rivalité entre empires a façonné l’histoire européenne. En 1918, ceux-ci se sont effondrés mais sans que l’Europe ne devienne stable. En 1945, le Reich nazi a été vaincu tandis que l’URSS établissait son emprise bien au-delà de ses frontières. On avait cru en 1989 à la fin des souverainetés limitées. Depuis 2022, par l’invasion de l’Ukraine, Moscou veut imposer une nouvelle vision impérialiste au profit d’une Russie à l’histoire révisée à des fins politiques. L’échec est cependant inéluctable.

La motivation au travail des personnels à Hauts Quotients Intellectuels (HQI) : de l’autodétermination à l’utilité sociale
Authors: Mouillot Philippe , Musquer Patricia
Published: November 2023

À l’heure où la quête de sens est plus que jamais au cœur des préoccupations professionnelles de nombreux salariés, cet article tire son originalité de la mesure de l’existence d’une corrélation positive entre la satisfaction des besoins et la motivation autonome de personnes HQI, c’est-à-dire à quotient intellectuel supérieur à 130 sur l’échelle de Wechsler. Notre réflexion est à la fois ancrée dans la Théorie de l’Autodétermination et dans la Théorie de la Valeur Sociale des Personnes puis testée auprès d’un échantillon substantiel dont les résultats sont scrutés par analyse de régressions et de variance. Ceux-ci montrent que les HQI semblent davantage se focaliser sur leur utilité sociale que sur leur désirabilité sociale, et qu’un individu à haut quotient intellectuel a plus de probabilités de quitter son emploi s’il n’y trouve pas suffisamment de sens malgré la présence de leviers extrinsèques positifs. Notre étude permet notamment de valider certains besoins saillants tels que l’importance accordée aux valeurs défendues par l’organisation, l’autonomie recherchée dans le travail ou encore le besoin d’une gestion relativement personnalisée, fondements de nos préconisations. Son principal apport théorique réside dans une nouvelle définition de l’intelligence que nous inscrivons dans le champ des Sciences de Gestion et que nous énonçons comme la capacité à prendre les bonnes décisions pour l’organisation. Les limites viennent nourrir nos futures voies de recherche, en l’occurrence la mobilisation d’une analyse par équations structurelles de nos futurs matériels statistiques afin d’affiner les relations entre nos variables, et ce au sein des paradigmes de marque-employeur, de contrats psychologiques et d’environnements interculturels complexes.

The effect of familiarity on neural tracking of music stimuli is modulated by mind wandering
Authors: Belo Joan , Clerc Maureen , Schön Daniele
Published: November 2023

One way to investigate the cortical tracking of continuous auditory stimuli is to use the stimulus reconstruction approach. However, the cognitive and behavioral factors impacting this cortical representation remain largely overlooked. Two possible candidates are familiarity with the stimulus and the ability to resist internal distractions. To explore the possible impacts of these two factors on the cortical representation of natural music stimuli, forty-one participants listened to monodic natural music stimuli while we recorded their neural activity. Using the stimulus reconstruction approach and linear mixed models, we found that familiarity positively impacted the reconstruction accuracy of music stimuli and that this effect of familiarity was modulated by mind wandering.

Authors: Urnia Ega Ersya , Virawati Dini Indo , Haloho Cristinawati B.R.
Published: November 2023

Each year, approximately 12 million girls worldwide enter into marriage before reaching the age of 18. In East Kalimantan Province, data from the 2020 National Socio-Economic Survey revealed that 11.54% of women aged 20-24 had experienced early marriage, surpassing Indonesia's average. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of audiovisual and printed health education media in enhancing the knowledge of young women about early marriage. A quasi-experimental approach was adopted, involving 32 young women aged 15-18 from a public high school in Borneo. The study measured the knowledge change in young women and their parents through questionnaires. Data analysis consisted of descriptive and inferential procedures, including normality tests, homogeneity tests, paired t tests, and analysis of variance tests. The findings demonstrated that audiovisual media significantly improved young women's awareness of early marriage (p<0.005). The study encourages midwives and healthcare professionals to employ effective health education media, particularly audiovisual tools, in educational settings to combat early marriage practices.
Effectiveness of brief cognitive behavior therapy on symptoms severity in relation to social avoidance among patients with panic disorder: a randomized controlled trial
Authors: Piro Rasoul Sabri , Taha Perjan Hashim
Published: November 2023

Background. Panic disorder is a debilitating condition characterized by severe symptoms and social avoidance. Due to insufficient knowledge, this study examined the effectiveness of brief cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on symptom severity and social avoidance in patients with panic disorder. Patients and Methods. In this randomized controlled trial (RCT), 44 patients were included in the Brief CBT group or the control group after addressing issues related to lost-to-follow-up. Panic disorder symptom severity (PDSS) and the work and social adjustment scale (WSAS) were used to assess symptom severity and social adjustment, respectively. Results. After one month of treatment, the total PDSS scores (1.79 vs. 4.47; P=0.0409) and WSAS scores (2.97 vs. 7.41; P=0.0015) in the brief CBT group were significantly lower compared to the control group. The study revealed that in the brief CBT group, the mean score of PDSS and WSAS significantly decreased from 21.53 to 1.79 (P<0.0001) and from 24.63 to 2.95 (P<0.0001), and in the control group from 19.59 to 4.47 (P<0.0001) in PDSS and from 22.18 to 7.41 (P<0.0001) in WSAS, respectively. Furthermore, the change in WSAS scores in the brief CBT group was independent of the decrease in PDSS. Conclusions. This study demonstrated that the application of brief CBT is an effective technique for reducing symptom severity and social avoidance in patients with panic disorder.
The Impact of Madrasati Platform Materials on Teaching and Learning Behaviors
Authors: Alenezi Abdullah
Published: November 2023

The Madrasati system is an e-learning system offered free by the Saudi Arabian government. The platform was developed to enhance the existing curricula and achieve national-level educational goals and objectives. Despite a high adoption rate, current evidence suggests Madrasati was poorly implemented, owing to suboptimal benefits enjoyed by various stakeholders. The system may impact teaching behaviors, student motivation, learning, teacher training, professional behavior, classroom culture, and environment. Moreover, perceived ease of use, teacher competence, perceived usefulness, user experiences, security issues, and technology availability affect uptake. The study employed a quantitative correlational cross-sectional design and methodology, using surveys, interviews, and observations on a sample (n=100) with 25 teachers and 75 students. Analysis was completed using SPSS, including Pearson’s r, regression, and the Sobel test to assess the mediating effect, where t-values above or below +/- 1.96 (95% CI) were considered significant. The results indicate that Madrasati positively correlates with teaching and learning behavior and student motivation. However, none of the mediating hypotheses were proven. The recommendations focus on strengthening Madrasati infrastructure, training, adopting a holistic approach, and collaborating with all stakeholders.

Published: November 2023

The high cost and toxicity associated with the use of orthosilicates as silica precursors drive growing interest in an environmentally friendly and cost - efficient natural silica source. Rice husk (a biomass) and beach sand are both natural and non - toxic and the extraction of silica from each using sodium hydroxide makes the process green for the production of nanosilica gels (xerogel and aerogel) via the sol – gel route. The gels from the ash of rice husk and pulverized beach sand were dried by the use of a laboratory oven and supercritical extraction methods. The structures of the gels were studied through X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X - ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic analyses. XRF spectroscopy revealed silicon in its oxide form as the prominent element with low levels of trace elements concentrations. XRD results showed the crystalline nature of the prepared silica. TEM images confirmed the crystalline and nanometric structures of the streak - free xerogel and aerogel. SAED confirmed that the gels were polycrystalline with no streaks. SEM monographs showed varied globes of fine surfaces indicating the high level of purity of the gels. FTIR showed the absorption peaks of the silanol-OH bond and Si-O-Si vibration, confirming the gels as nanometric structures. The high yield, crystalline nature, purity and crystallographic features of the produced silica suggest rice husk ash and pulverized beach sand as alternative silica sources for the production of silica gels nanoparticles with potential applications in biomedical field, nanofiltration and as additive for improving the strength of materials.
ETNOGRAFIA NO QUILOMBO NOGUEIRA: HISTÓRIA DE LUTA E RESISTÊNCIA DE UM QUILOMBO URBANO EM MONTES CLAROS (MG)
Authors: Pessoa Virginia Marinely Almeida e
Published: November 2023

Quilombos foram locais onde pessoas escravizadas se instalavam em um território para lá começar a vida, cuidar da família, plantar, colher, praticar suas crenças e costumes. No decorrer da história do Brasil, foi se tornando sinal de luta e resistência, pois tornaram-se também alvo de perseguição ou cobiça, de quem desejava tomar ou apropriar-se do espaço desses grupo. Não foi diferente com o Quilombo Nogueira, um quilombo, na cidade de Montes Claros que hoje já faz parte da área urbana, pelo crescimento e urbanização da cidade. Esse trabalho conta da experiência, mesmo rápida de contato com esse grupo, que como outros quilombos, carregam uma história marcada por trabalho, luta e resistência para se manterem no local, criar suas famílias, praticar suas crenças. O trabalho etnográfico permite um “olhar de dentro e de perto” para essa realidade, tão carregada de preconceitos, mas que como qualquer outro povo, têm direito ao reconhecimento, moradia, sustento e livre exercícios de suas práticas.

Published: November 2023

Esta pesquisa versa sobre cultura e sertão no norte de Minas Gerais, tematizando as ricas manifestações culturais como as festas, as religiosidades em meio a um ambiente geográfico específico. A questão de pesquisa é: como as características geográficas do sertão norte-mineiro influenciam a identidade e as práticas sertanejas? O objetivo geral é analisar a interação entre cultura e sertão do norte de Minas Gerais explorando como suas características geográficas influenciam a identidade e o saber local. Os objetivos específicos são: investigar como as condições climáticas, geográficas do sertão afetam a atividade econômica e a subsistência da população local; analisar a influência da cultura sertaneja na vida cotidiana do sertão; explorar como o sertão, como cenário de desafios, contribui para a formação da identidade sertaneja, suas representações na literatura e na cultura popular. A pesquisa foi conduzida por meio da pesquisa qualitativa com análise textual e documental. Sendo assim, as características geográficas e culturais desse sertão desempenham um papel fundamental na formação da identidade. As condições climáticas adversas e a paisagem árida impactam nas atividades econômicas da população local, no entanto, a construção da identidade não se encontra apenas nos modos difíceis de viver, mas permanece solidificada nas palavras, nos gestos de pessoas determinadas, em espaços e tempos predeterminados para garantir, assim, a ligação entre profano e sagrado, e todo esse ambiente simbólico permanece entrelaçado nas rezas, benzeduras, nas oferendas, nas penitências para alcançar a graça da chuva, nos banhos de ervas do mato e nas festas. Assim, as conclusões finais destacam a importância de potencializar e valorizar a cultura sertaneja, reconhecendo-a como parte fundamental do patrimônio cultural brasileiro.
