Pulp bleaching processes emit many toxic substances. Peracetic acid (PAA) has been long recognized as an efficient bleaching agent for cellulose pulps. In the present study, 20 runs were conducted using response surface methodology (RSM) through central composite design for optimization of peracetic acid treatment of hardwood pulp, as a pretreatment step before applying conventional bleaching. Three factors, namely temperature (50-80 °C), time (0.5-2.0 h) and PAA dose (0.5-2.0%), were investigated to find out their impact on the kappa number, yield, brightness and viscosity of the pulp. The findings revealed that the peracetic acid dose of 1.0% at 80 °C for 1.0 h was the most suitable to obtain pulp of kappa number 10.2, yield of 96.87%, brightness of 43.6% ISO and viscosity of 11.7 cP. FTIR analysis revealed that the peracetic acid pretreatment of the pulp led to lower lignin content, compared to untreated pulp, but also reduced the bleaching effluent parameters, such as BOD, COD, TDS, color and AOX, by 43.0%, 55.7%, 31.9%, 51.4% and 51.1%, respectively.

This study aimed to determine whether 100% recycled papers can replace papers made from virgin fibers for the purpose of electrophotographic printing for packaging by evaluating the recycling potential of electrophotographically printed paper using the INGEDE and the washing deinking method. In the first part of the study, typical office copy paper, containing up to 30% recycled fiber, was printed electrophotographically. In the second part of the study, the deinked pulp was then used to prepare the handsheets for deinking evaluation, paper analysis and printability analysis. The print quality of the recycled papers was highly encouraging, as the results were comparable and, in some cases, identical to those of papers manufactured from virgin fibers.

Published: October 2022

We experimentally and theoretically investigate the noise-like pulse (NLP) generation in a nonlinear polarization rotation-based mode-locked Ho-doped fiber ring laser, which can optionally operate in the dual-wavelength regime. By carefully changing the pump power and polarization state, the dual-wavelength NLP regime at 2041.9 and 2083.3 nm is finally achieved, which corresponds to a pulse energy of 11.84 nJ and a pulse duration of 849 fs. It is believed to be the first report on the dual-wavelength NLP operation from the previously reported Ho-doped fiber lasers.
An analytical formula for determining the electrical impedance between a single adherent cell and sensor substrate
Authors: Shiozawa Masataka , Uno Shigeyasu
Published: October 2022

An analytical formula for the electrical impedance between an adherent living cell and a sensor substrate measured using a microelectrode is presented for the first time. Previously-reported formula has been applicable only for the case where many cells are on a large electrode. In contrast, our formula is valid even when a microelectrode smaller than the cell-size is underneath the cell, which is often the case for the state-of-the-art single-cell analysis. Numerical simulations for verifying the accuracy of our formula reveals that the discrepancies between the theoretical impedances calculated by our formula and numerical simulation results are negligibly small. Our formula will be useful for describing cell-substrate impedance properties in equivalent circuit model analysis or sensor design optimizations.
INFERIOR THYROID ARTERY DOPPLER: A NEW TOOL IN DIFFERENTIATION OF GRAVE'S DISEASE AND HASHIMOTO'S THYROIDITIS. A NOVEL RADIOLOGICAL-PATHOLOGICAL CORRELATION STUDY
Authors: V Rohan , J C Yogaisvariya
Published: October 2022

Background: Autoimmune thyroid diseases are characterized by diffuse involvement of thyroid gland with
hypoechogenicity and altered echotexture at gray scale ultrasound being a characteristic feature. An overlap of this
pattern in patients affected by Graves' disease or Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Differentiation between causes of thyrotoxicosis at time of
diagnosis, either hyperthyroidism due to Graves' disease or destructive thyrotoxicosis due to thyroiditis, is very important as
management of each is completely different. Comparison of Doppler indices Aims and Objectives: in patients of Diffuse thyroid disease (
Graves' and Hashimoto's) on ultrasound with normal study population. Participants w Material & Methods ere recruited in the ultrasound unit at
the Victoria hospital, Bangalore medical college and research institute. We conducted a prospective study on a group of 20 Normal individuals
and 40 patients with Diffuse thyroid disease on Ultrasonography (20 cases of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and 20 cases of Graves disease). The
thyroid glands of all patients were evaluated by gray scale ultrasonography for size, shape and echotexture. Color-ow Doppler ultrasonography
of the thyroid tissue was performed and spectral ow analysis of both inferior thyroid arteries was assessed. Inferior thyroid artery Doppler
parameters were calculated in all patients. Mean PSV of normal indivi Results duals was 16.4. Hashimoto's patients who had their mean PSV was
36.2 and Graves patients who had their mean PSV 86.4. On applying unpaired t test, the two tailed p value was less than 0.05 (0.001 and 0.0001
respectively), which found statistically highly signicant. The comparison of Doppler indices of Hashimotos disease and Graves diseases - On
applying unpaired t test, the two tailed p value was less than 0.05 (0.0001) which was found statistically highly signicant. Blood Conclusion
ow is a useful marker in initial diagnosis of diffuse thyroid. The high correlation between Doppler indices with pathological diagnosis
establishes this modality as an acceptable alternative to Nuclear imaging. Its role in pregnancy and lactation where nuclear imaging is
contraindicated needs to be emphasised.

The Possibility of Truth and Justice in Ariel Dorfman’s Death and the Maiden
Authors: ‎ Hussein Inst. Dr. Hind Naji
Published: October 2022

The paper examines the possibility of attaining justice and truth for victims of human rights abuses as represented in Ariel Dorfman’s Death and the Maiden (1991). The paper investigates the validity of the concept of transitional justice, as a national reconciliation policy, in addressing individual sufferings and stories. While analyzing the play, the paper handles certain questions: is transitional justice the appropriate tool to expose the truth and achieve the justice desired by the victims? Is the perpetrators accountability possible? Is retribution more effective if taken by the hands of the victims themselves? Can reconciliation even be possible for the victims? The paper uses theories and definitions of the concept of transitional justice as well as those of Trauma as its main framework of inquiry. The conclusion of the play is open to speculations as it is the case with most of human rights abuses and the process of justice and accountability related to them.

The Aesthetic Use of Symbols in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of ‎Dorian Gray
Authors: Saeed Chro Muhammad , Sharif Asst. Prof. Dr. Azad Hamad
Published: October 2022

This research paper is a study of the aesthetic use of symbols in Oscar Wilde’s only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray (1891) which was published in Lippincott’s Monthly Magazine in 1890. The aim of this paper is not to cover all the symbols in the book, but to offer an explanation of the most significant symbols in the work which add depth and beauty to the text, hoping that this study will help the readers to achieve some aesthetic insight into the text of the novel. The novel’s focus on sensual love and physical pleasure that undercuts Victorian aesthetics and values of order and rationality brought much criticism and heated arguments on both the book and its rebellious author. 
     The paper begins with an introduction that highlights the social values and the aesthetic concept of the Victorian people.  But contrary to their expectations, Wilde used extraordinary ideas and symbols to undermine the Victorian code of values. This conflict led to the discussion of the themes of moral decadence, caste system, corruption, crime, and hypocrisy which were popular in the Victorian era. The study explores Wilde’s creative method in dealing with the moral and the social issues of his society in a superb style which distinguishes him from his predecessors. The book’s violation of Victorian traditional values helped it achieve the status of a valuable modern aesthetic text. Wilde’s nondidactic method creates aesthetic feeling in the reader by using wonderful setting, unusual symbols, extraordinary characters, floral imagery, and sublime figurative language.

Semantic Analysis of Proverbs: A Conversation Analysis
Authors: Hassan ‎ Asst. Prof. Nagham Ali ‎
Published: October 2022

Proverbs are considered as a major source of ancient events and happenings. Similar to other past events related to life, proverbs have many important and famous values in people's life. This study will shed lights on the use of proverbs as short sentences based on long experiences. The aim of the study is to explicate the roles, and the importance of proverbs in our life and how they are used to convey thoughts to people throughout simple words with denotation. Thus, proverbs explicate the truth and experience of our grandfathers when directed for criticism. Few proverbs were used by writers to criticize, mimic and reprint their personalities. Hence, proverbs will achieve portions of the unique roles of understanding. The model to be used accordingly is an eclectic model by Leech (1974), Odebunmi, (2002) and Udofot (1999). The results of the analysis have shown different scores of occurrence of semantic meanings as the following: Denotative meaning as 100%, Connotative meaning as 100%, Thematic meaning as 100%, Affective meaning as 92.307%, Stylistic meaning as 92.307%, Collocative meaning as 76.923%, Reflexive meaning as 30.77%. Referential theory as 92.307% ,and Image theory as 92.307%. Proverbs have been and keep highly and essential tools for the illustration of culture, social morality, manners and behaviors of insisters from one era to another. Proverbs may work as impersonal tool for personal interrogation. Parents can use proverbs to control their sons' behavior or ways of thinking.

“Male-supported, female-initiated”
Authors: Govender Eliza , Vukapi Yonela , Nota Phiwe
Published: October 2022

HIV and AIDS remain one of the leading public health challenges in the world, with young women in sub-Saharan Africa bearing the brunt of HIV infection. Female vulnerability to HIV infection is exacerbated by socio-cultural, economic and biological dynamics. Vaginal microbicide, one of the first topical pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) innovations for HIV prevention can offer new hope for women, but an understanding of the local cultural context and its influence on product acceptability is fundamental for effective HIV communication strategies. Critical health communication navigates through the complexities of cultural discourses to create awareness among women in dominant cultural settings. As a means of understanding the key determinants for effective HIV communication, this paper used thematic analysis of data from a study among female students at the University of KwaZulu-Natal regarding their preferences and the acceptability of two microbicide technologies: the tenofovir gel and the dapivirine ring. Keyfindings indicate that microbicides give women more options for self-protection and cater for diverse sexual encounters, and that their covert use empowers women to use the products even if male partners do not support this. However, women felt more empowered with “male-supported, female-initiated” HIV prevention options. The study suggests that in providing HIV preventionoptions to women, culturally appropriate messages must be considered. We suggested that topical PrEP must be communicated as a “male-supported, female-initiated” HIV prevention option in rural KwaZulu-Natal contexts.
Evaluating the resilience benefits of marine energy in microgrids
Authors: Newman Sarah F. , Bhatnagar Dhruv , O'Neil Rebecca S. , Reiman Andy P. , Preziuso Danielle C. , Robertson Bryson
Published: October 2022

Marine energy resources could promote clean energy and resilience of coastal and island microgrids, and thus, these applications are a key future market for marine energy development. To demonstrate these benefits, this paper illustrates how inclusion of wave resources into energy resilience solutions can improve overall grid efficiency and sustainability, as well as maintain electricity supply during grid outages. The paper describes a case study evaluation of the potential to add wave energy to the Moloka'i grid as Hawaii strives to meet a 100% clean energy target. The Microgrid Component Optimization for Resilience tool is used to simulate operation in off-grid conditions and size different combinations of wave, solar photovoltaic (PV), wind, storage, and fuel resources required to meet resilience objectives. This research investigates how including wave resources in a microgrid contributes to reducing or eliminating biofuel generation, producing a zero-greenhouse gas emission profile in the latter case, and avoiding the over-sizing of PV and battery systems to accommodate periods of unavailability or high demand. Insight from this paper supports the value proposition of wave resources for future markets and informs the relationship between marine generators and microgrids or isolated grids.

Authors: Zuhriyah Qurrotul Aini
Published: October 2022

OVO digital money is a means of payment in electronic form where the value of money is stored in certain electronic media. Users must first deposit their money to the publisher and store it in electronic media before using it for transaction purposes. Currently, there are two types of digital money in Indonesia, namely server-based digital money and chip-based digital money. This study aims to describe the behavior of using digital money in the millennial generation and its review based on Islamic perspective. This research is an observational study with a qualitative approach. Data were collected by interview, observation, and documentation methods. Data analysis was done descriptively. The results of the study show that forms of digital money transactions (OVO) are used as a means of payment for retail transactions, payments for online transportation orders and food orders, payments in e-commerce, and are used to pay bills such as purchasing credit or data packages. Muslim consumer behavior at IAIN Kediri students in using OVO is still in the reasonable stage and not excessive. In conclusion, IAIN Kediri students have shown the use of e-money based on Islamic perspective, namely shopping as a need, not as a desire, consuming halal goods, and not spending excessively.
Reconstructing the Traditional Roles of Contemporary Muslim Mothers in Kenya
Authors: Ibrahim Hafsa Ali , Wario Halkano Abdi
Published: October 2022

There is a constant struggle for women who aspire to be good Muslim mothers at the same time have a positive impact on their society as professionals. These women do acknowledge and understand their unique position in the upbringing of children and prioritise motherhood responsibility over their other ambitions in life. There are those who prioritise their education and career over motherhood and others believe that Muslim women are not ideally supposed to be working outside the house. The Muslim society is experiencing all types of impurities ranging from drug addiction, corruption, homosexuality, lesbianism, alcoholism, homicides, and mass poverty to destitution. Could this be as a result of Muslim women going out to work and delegating their responsibility at home? Or how can they make the best out of their position at home as mothers and outside as professionals to help change society? In what ways can they balance and get out of their stereotypical roles and contribute positively to the wellbeing of the whole society? This article will discuss motherhood institutions from the daily experiences of mothers; homestay, working, older, and the modern generation. It will also try to find out whether they can balance being a mother and a career person and what impact this will have on Muslim society

In dynamic environments, statistical learning of spatial and temporal regularities guides visual attention in space and time. In the current study, we explored whether and how combined spatiotemporal regularities regarding target events guide visual attention. In three experiments, participants performed the additional singleton task. They were asked to search for a target stimulus with a unique shape among five non-target distractors and respond to the orientation of a line inside the target. Unbeknownst to the participants, the moment in time that the search display was presented was predictive of the target location. Specifically, the target was more likely to be presented at one high-probability location after a short interval and at another high-probability location after a long interval. The results showed that participants’ performance was better for high-probability locations than for low-probability locations. Moreover, visual search efficiency was greater when the target appeared at the high-probability location after its associated interval than when it occurred there after its nonassociated interval, regardless of whether the distribution of intervals was uniform (Experiment 1), exponential (Experiment 2), or anti-exponential (Experiment 3). Taken together, the results indicate that implicitly learned spatiotemporal regularities dynamically guide visual attention towards the probable target location.
No evidence for superior distractor filtering amongst individuals high in autistic-like traits
Authors: Visser Troy A. W. , English Michael C. W. , Maybery Murray T.
Published: October 2022

Autistic individuals and individuals with high levels of autistic-like traits often show better visual search performance than their neurotypical peers. The present work investigates whether this advantage stems from increased ability to filter out distractors. Participants with high or low levels of autistic-like traits completed an attentional blink task in which trials varied in target-distractor similarity. The results showed no evidence that high levels of autistic-like traits were associated with superior distractor filtering (indexed by the difference in the size of the attentional blink across the high- and low-similarity distractors). This suggests that search advantages seen in previous studies are likely linked to other mechanisms such as enhanced pre-attentive scene processing, better decision making, or more efficient response selection.
Tactics for Twenty20 cricket
Authors: Silva Rajitha M. , Perera Harsha , Davis Jack , Swartz Tim B.
Published: October 2022

This paper explores two avenues for the modification of tactics in Twenty20 cricket. The first idea is based on the realisation that wickets are of less importance in Twenty20 cricket than in other formats of cricket (e.g. one-day cricket and Test cricket). A consequence is that batting sides in Twenty20 cricket should place more emphasis on scoring runs and less emphasis on avoiding wickets falling. On the flip side, fielding sides should place more emphasis on preventing runs and less emphasis on taking wickets. Practical implementations of this general idea are obtained by simple modifications to batting orders and bowling overs. The second idea may be applicable when there exists a sizeable mismatch between two competing teams. In this case, the weaker team may be able to improve its win probability by increasing the variance of run differential. A specific variance inflation technique which we consider is increased aggressiveness in batting.
A multivariate gamma distribution applied to compositional data analysis
Authors: de Waal Daan , Coetzer Roelof , van der Merwe Sean
Published: October 2022

Parametric compositional data analysis in a high dimensional simplex can be performed by employing the Dirichlet distribution, or alternatively, through the logistic normal distribution if the Dirichlet is not appropriate. In this paper, a multivariate gamma (MGAM) distribution is proposed as an alternative distribution for compositional data. In addition, the MGAM distribution is extended to a multivariate extreme value (MEV) distribution and goodness of fit statistics are calculated for comparison against the logistic normal distribution. An application is considered where the amount of gas produced from a coal gasication facility depends crucially on the size distribution of the coal, which is measured as compositional data and characterised by six variables. The observed sample space is divided into three regions of high (H), standard (S) and low (L) gas production by choosing appropriate thresholds, and new observations are classified among the regions.
Contradictions of Technological and Socio-Economic Transformations: The New Role of Knowledge in the Process of Moving Towards Noonomy
Authors:   State Duma Committee on Science and Higher Education, Smolin O.N.
Published: October 2022

The author investigates the issue of global transformation of society and evaluates the prospects of mankind’s progress to a qualitatively new state of society on the basis of the theoretical concept developed by S.D. Bodrunov. For this purpose the author makes a profound methodological analysis of the genesis of a new post-economic state of society. As a result of the investigation, the author highlights such aspect as the lack of completeness of the study of social strata, which may turn out to be both actors and opponents on the path of movement towards noonomy. In the author’s opinion, the analysis of other possible scenarios, contradictions and obstacles on the way to noonomy can be an important addition to those developments, which are embodied in the concept of Professor S.D. Bodrunov.
Scientific and Technological Progress and Transformation of Society: Noonomy and Noosociety. Part 2
Authors:   S.Y. Witte Institute for New Industrial Development, Bodrunov S.D.
Published: October 2022

the theory of Noonomy, based on the study of modern trends in technological and socio-economic development, allows us to identify the causes of the contradictions that modern civilization faces – economic, social, environmental, moral contradictions. However, noonomy not only reveals the background of these contradictions, but also shows the maturing objective possibilities of getting out of these contradictions, overcoming civilizational dead ends, choosing a path at civilizational forks. The opportunities created by modern technology create the prospect of a transition from economics to noonomy, which means abandoning economic rationality, leading to an unrestrained pursuit of increasing production and consumption. The place of economic rationality is occupied by rationality based on the criteria of knowledge and culture. However, such a transition from economics to noonomy should be based on a change in the totality of social relations, and noonomy can be strengthened only within the framework of an integral system of the noosociety. The very nature of public relations and public relations of people, the nature of human socialization and socialization of society will orient social development to these new criteria. The ideological orientation of such a reformatting of society can be the ideology of solidarity, which grows out of the emerging opportunities to overcome the discord of socioeconomic interests of people based on the struggle for material resources.

Consumption of electrical energy continues to increase along with population growth. As a result, various sources of electrical energy are utilised to meet these needs, especially in areas that have not been reached by the national electricity network. In countries with hilly geography and irrigation canals, pico hydro energy is often considered an alternative. One of the tools used to convert water flow energy into electrical energy is the Dethridge wheel. The Dethridge wheel is a simple waterwheel that is easy to manufacture and suitable for irrigation canals with very low water head heights. This study aims to increase the performance of the Dethridge wheel by changing the shape of the wheel blades and examine the effect of the variation of water flow rate in the channel. Experimental and numerical methods were used to investigate the potential of the developed wheel. The Dethridge wheel and its development were tested using an artificial irrigation canal with flow rates of 20, 30, 60, 90 and 120 m3/h. Furthermore, a three-dimensional numerical model of the Dethridge wheel was simulated using Ansys Fluent 18.2 software. The highest efficiency of the experimental Dethridge wheel, 55.6%, was achieved when the flow rate was 30 m3/h. The developed Dethridge wheel efficiency increased to 71.72%. These results are also in agreement with the simulated model.

The utilization of natural resources as renewable energy is thriving as its innovation brings clean energy, environmentally friendly and also cut down costs. Hence, the purpose of this study is to propose a technique to enhance the output voltage of piezoelectric as an energy harvesting device by applying nonlinear magnetic forces from a phenomenon called vortex induced vibration (VIV). This harvester device is designed with a presence of two magnets that placed at the bottom of a circular cylinder and on the lower base. The mechanical conversion energy that is studied is the vibration from circular cylinder’s oscillation through a phenomenon called Vortex Induced Vibration by using piezoelectric transducer. A VIV-based energy harvester has been fabricated and carried out in water flow to observe the optimum output voltage that can be generated. Three different lengths of piezoelectric cantilever plates and two magnet distances are tested to investigate the influence of system’s stiffness and the repulsive force to the harvested energy. From the experiment, it is observed that a lower stiffness of the system provides higher harvested voltage. In addition, the presence of magnets shows a greater output voltage due to the action of nonlinear magnetic forces where the position between two magnets able to shift the synchronization region thus, showing a greatly wider synchronization region and increasing the performance of VIV-based energy harvesting system.

Published: October 2022

Wastewater treatment techniques have two categories: pre- and post-treatment. Physical, chemical, and biological pretreatment techniques are commonly employed to treat dairy wastewater. Secondly, dairy wastewater post-treatment techniques include physico-chemical and membrane treatment approaches. This review article aims to critically examine and describe pre- and post-treatment techniques for dairy wastewater treatment. The benefits, drawbacks, performance comparisons, and features of each pre - and posttreatment have been extensively investigated. This article uses a systematic literature review method to review and examine other research findings. The results indicate that despite extensive studies on pre- and post-treatment techniques, both have limitations. In this context, aerobic pre-treatment, for example, has high lactose levels, low water capacity, and efficiency concerns. Furthermore, anaerobic pretreatment has issues with lengthy starting times, a high fermentable lactose content, poor residual alkalinity, and fat consumption. In physico-chemical post-treatment, there are high amounts of sludge production and high quantities of chemicals required for pH corrections. Likewise, membrane post-treatment, for instance, has a short membrane lifespan, low selectivity and flux, linear up-scaling, and concentration polarization membrane fouling. Therefore, a synergy of physico-chemical and aerobic, for example, adsorption-aerobic, and synergy of pre-hydrolysis and anaerobic, such as enzymatic hydrolysis-anaerobic treatment, will help to overcome the drawbacks of both anaerobic and aerobic treatment techniques. In conclusion, the most promising techniques for dairy wastewater treatment are combinations of adsorption-aerobic and enzymatic hydrolysis-anaerobic with microfiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, and ultrafiltration.
