Authors: Shorna Shagata Islam , Akhter Bushra Anika , Anwar Md Parvez , Hossain Md Alamgir
Published: December 2024

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) is a newly introduced drought-tolerant crop in Bangladesh and registered as BAU chia-1 in 2019 for countrywide cultivation. Its seeds are considered a superfood because of having a large amount (57-65%) of α-linolenic acid (ω-3 fatty acid). This study aims to determine the amount of optimum nitrogen fertilizer to get a good yield in Bangladesh. A field experiment was conducted from November 2023 to February 2024, to assess the influence of nitrogen in the growth and yield of BAU chia-1. A randomized complete block design was conducted with four nitrogen fertilizer treatments (T0 = control/ 0 kg N ha-1, T1= 90 kg N ha-1, T2 = 120 kg N ha-1, T3= 150 kg N ha-1) with three replications. The vegetative growth (plant height, fresh weight plant-1, dry weight plant-1, leaf number plant-1) was higher in the case of T3, but in case of yield contributing attributes (number of inflorescence plant-1, main inflorescence length, number of spikes inflorescence-1, number of spikelet spike-1) and seed yield T2 showed the highest value. Though, SPAD was also the highest in T3, leaf area and fluorescence was higher in T2 than others. Finally, main inflorescence length (39.4 cm), number of inflorescences plant-1 (21), spikes main inflorescence-1 (20), spikelet spike-1 (24) and seed yield (1066 kg ha-1) were higher in T2 treatment than the others. The optimal nitrogen level for BAU chia-1 cultivation appears to be 120 kg N ha-1. However, further multi-location trials are required to validate these findings before making any recommendations.

Published: December 2024

In agriculture, a wide range of pesticides have been used to improve crop quality and productivity. Farmers in Bangladesh are using pesticides in vegetables following no rules and regulations as a result it has been a potential risk to the environment and human health. For this reason, an experiment was conducted to determine the pre-harvest interval of cypermethrin and chlorpyrifos in tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum) and yard-long beans (Vigna unguiculata) considering the maximum residue limit (MRL) set by the European Union. The crops were sprayed with the recommended dose of chlorpyrifos (2 ml/L) and cypermethrin (1 ml/L) in four supervised field trials. Samples were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 days after spray (DAS). Gas chromatography was used for a simple and effective multiple pesticide residue analysis where Flame Thermo ionized Detector for chlorpyrifos, and Electron Capture Detector for cypermethrin were used for the determination of the pesticide residues. The quantities were above MRL up to 3 DAS for cypermethrin and 7 DAS for chlorpyrifos in tomatoes. The detected residues were above MRL in yard-long beans up to 4 DAS for cypermethrin and 9 DAS for chlorpyrifos. The pre-harvest interval was determined in tomatoes at 4 DAS for cypermethrin, 8 DAS for chlorpyrifos, and in the case of yard-long beans, it was 5 DAS for cypermethrin and 10 DAS for chlorpyrifos.

Postharvest Quality of Calcium Chloride-Treated Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa cv. Festival) in CoolBot Storage
Authors: Lekhon Sheikh Nymur Rashid , Khan Shamim Ahmed Kamal Uddin , Kabir Md Yamin
Published: December 2024

Though strawberry is a popular and nutritious fruit gladly accepted worldwide, its delicate nature and high perishability makes it highly susceptible to postharvest loss. The objective of this study was to evaluate the postharvest quality attributes including shelf life of ‘Festival’ strawberry as affected by calcium chloride in CoolBot storage system. The experiment was conducted with four calcium chloride concentrations [control (no calcium), 1%, 2%, and 3% calcium chloride] following Completely Randomized Design with three replications. Each replication consisted of 400 g freshly harvested strawberry fruits which were dipped into the respective calcium chloride solutions for two minutes followed by 10-minutes air drying. The findings showed that 3% calcium chloride resulted in the highest anthocyanin content (40.62 mg 100g-1) and shelf life (10.33 days) along with the lowest fruit weight loss (11.18%). The 3% calcium chloride also maintained the higher fruit diameters (polar and equatorial) and firmness along with high level of titratable acidity, vitamin C, and total carbohydrate and low level of total soluble solids compared to the control. However, the lowest fruit spoilage (11.59%) was reported from 2% calcium chloride. Overall, 3% calcium chloride performed better regarding physical and chemical quality attributes and shelf life of strawberry at postharvest and therefore, it can be suggested for postharvest strawberry fruit preservation. However, further research could be conducted with other strawberry varieties to have a better understanding of postharvest strawberry preservations with calcium chloride in the CoolBot storage facilities.

Published: December 2024

The increasing demand for innovative and interactive learning media in education highlights the importance of enhancing teachers' digital competencies. This community service program, conducted under the Community Partnership Program (PKM), aimed to improve the digital skills of teachers at Integrated Islamic Elementary Schools in Pamekasan, particularly in utilizing Canva to create engaging and effective learning materials. The primary challenge identified was the low proficiency of teachers in using technology for developing creative and up-to-date media. To address this, a participatory approach was employed, combining theoretical instruction with hands-on practice. The training was implemented in stages, starting with basic hardware literacy and progressing to the application of Canva features for classroom-appropriate learning media. Strategies included providing training modules, live demonstrations, and group discussions to foster collaborative idea-sharing. The program's outcomes revealed a significant improvement in teachers' digital competence. Pre- and post-training assessments demonstrated an increase in hardware proficiency from 57.4% to 73.4%, alongside notable enhancements in Canva-related skills, such as creativity, usage frequency, and diversity of learning materials produced. Despite challenges posed by the limited digital literacy of senior teachers, the program successfully equipped participants with the skills to develop more engaging and diverse digital learning resources, ultimately fostering greater student participation and motivation..

TEACHERS' BELIEFS AND CONSTRAINTS IN ADOPTING LEARNER-CENTERED PEDAGOGY; AN ANALYSIS OF TEACHER-CENTERED METHODS IN TANZANIAN TEACHER TRAINING COLLEGES
Authors: Almasi Mustapha , Rumulika Susan Mwangu , Hakimu Johari , Mbukwa Justine N
Published: December 2024

Modern teaching prioritizes student-centered learning, yet teacher-centered methods (TCM) still exist in many contexts, including Tanzanian colleges. This study investigates the factors that motivate the continued use of TCM in selected teacher training institutions in Tanzania. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 150 college teachers through structured questionnaires, analyzed with the Relative Importance Index (RII) to rank the motivational factors. The research findings reveal three main factors driving the use of TCM, which consist of teachers' belief in its effectiveness, poor student cooperation perception, and low student learning ability. Additional but less significant factors include class size, resource limitations, and standardized testing demands. This study concludes that deeply rooted teacher beliefs and contextual classroom challenges reinforce the use of TCM, despite policy changes advocating for student-centered methods. (LCM). This study recommends enhancing teacher training programs that focus on fostering student engagement and addressing student ability perceptions to align teaching practices with modern educational goals.
The Armoured Self, Un-becoming the Subject: Reading Julia Ducournau’s Titane (2021) Via Wyndham Lewis and Vorticism
Authors: Eden Michael
Published: December 2024

In this paper, I explore what Lisa Tickner calls a ‘dissentient position’ in Modernism that assumes dehumanisation as a value of a new and brutal subjectivity and places the machine as a totemic deity. My understanding of this draws from the aesthetic language of Vorticism, particularly representations of women in the work of Wyndham Lewis. Moreover, I argue that this ‘machinic-modernism’ as Hal Foster describes it, which emerged in the early 20th century as a reaction to industrialised modernity, corporatisation, Taylorism, and Fordism, has a powerful and unacknowledged inheritor in the contemporary Palme d'Or winning film Titane (2021) written and directed by the auteur Julia Ducournau. I argue that the figure of Alexia in Titane, portrayed by actress and model Agathe Rousselle, is a celebration of dehumanisation that follows an anti-humanist path – sexually-combative femininity purged to become a hyper-masculine recruit, emerging as a biomechanical self – I claim that, while the modernism of Lewis and the creative intentions of Ducournau may have stemmed from different motivations, their utmost horizon for the subject and society is the same one, the swapping out of the tension of masculine and feminine for a machinic-self defined by ferocity, abjection, and trauma. I will also refer to the text Filibusters in Barbary from 1932 which is a reflective account of travels in North Africa including revealing attitudes of Lewis’s regarding machines which are, in common with the themes of Titane, anthropomorphised and presented as magical, violent, more frightening than monsters, and as having replaced gods. Ducournau and Lewis are reactive to the same social forces and rebarbative to so-called bourgeois conceptions of femininity in favour of a subjectivity that exists in a highly stratified social organisation.
Criticism of the class theory of law
Authors: Yushchyk O. I.
Published: December 2024

The article critically examines the general concept of law from the standpoint of a class approach. The class theory of law proposed by the famous legal scientist P. Stuchka is characterized. A critical assessment of the characteristics of the last similar class theory of E. Pashukanis, who does not distinguish between the method of knowledge of the commodity exchange relationship and the legal relationship, is provided. It was also noted the erroneous application of the class approach in defining the concept of law by other legal theorists of the Soviet period. A fundamental error in the methodology of knowledge of law has been identified, which is connected with the absolutization of the class approach by extending it to the knowledge of law in a classless society.
In this connection, the lack of modern definitions of the concept of the state as a phenomenon of class society in the relationship between this concept and the concept of law is noted. The need to connect the concept of the state not with law in general, but only with one type of law, the law of class society, which is legal law, is emphasized. The negative impact of the absolutization of the class approach in the knowledge of law on the development of the scientific theory of law, which is experiencing a crisis of legal understanding at the current stage, is indicated, as well as on the definition of the subject of legal science, regarding which there is still no unified understanding. It is claimed that a fundamental error in the definition of the indicated subject of legal science is the replacement of the concept of legal law in its connection with the state by the concept of law as such, i.e., the specific concept of law by its generic concept. Emphasis is placed on the need to develop knowledge about law from the standpoint of the dialectical theory of law, which considers the need for a class approach only in relation to one type of law, namely legal law. It is claimed that the subject of legal science is the state in its connection with legal law.
Key words: class theory of law, class approach, methodology of law, subject of legal science, legal law, dialectical theory of law.

Summary. The article is devoted to conducting research aimed at increasing the load-bearing capacity of foundations during the construction of structures made of metal corrugated structures.
The purpose of the work is to increase the load-bearing capacity of the foundations during the construction of structures made of metal corrugated structures on weak soils. This will make it possible to ensure the reliable and long-lasting operation of transport structures made of prefabricated metal corrugated structures during the construction and operation of structures.
The object of research is the foundation of a transport structure made of metal corrugated structures in the conditions of weak soils.
A study of the stress-deformation state of the foundation of a transport structure made of metal corrugated structures under the conditions of weak soils was carried out, taking into account the parameters of the soils obtained in the process of engineering-geological sectioning.
It is proposed to strengthen the base of the structure on weak soils by the method of installing reinforced concrete piles. The results of calculations of the stress-strain state of the base without reinforcement showed that the maximum value of the total displacements is about 5.12 cm, which is unacceptable in terms of deformations for a concrete coating. At the same time, the value of vertical stresses is 803.5 kN/m2. Therefore, to compensate for the initial deformations, it is recommended to apply a load on the entire area of the site with a load of 10 kN/m. Due to the loading, we maximally remove stress and deformation before arranging the structures of the building.
When using piles to strengthen the base on weak soils, it was found that the maximum value of the total displacements at the stage of loading was 2.36 cm, which is permissible in terms of deformations for a concrete coating.
It was established that the main risks in the construction of transport facilities on weak soils are deformations of the soil base. They can appear during the transmission of forces from the transport structure and variable loads, as well as from changes in the physical and mechanical properties of the foundation soils during the construction and operation of the structure.
Key words: transport structure, metal corrugated structures, base, stress, deformations.

Summary. An important component for the capacity of irrigation canals is the determination of water flow parameters. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to consider the conditions of water flow under which unsteady motion occurs in the cross-sections of irrigation canals and hydraulic structures. Analyzing these conditions will make it possible to correctly determine the capacity of such structures, which is extremely important for their design and efficient operation.
The main problem is the lack of appropriate recommendations for taking into account unsteady traffic when calculating the capacity of structures on irrigation canals. While such recommendations exist for steady-state traffic.
Thus, one of the objectives of the study is to determine the effect of boundary conditions on the characteristics of movement in cross sections of structures during unsteady flow. The results obtained will be important for determining the capacity of hydraulic structures under different flow regimes, which is key to their optimal operation.
When reconstructing irrigation canals, one of the ways to increase their capacity is to increase their geometric dimensions. However, if the dimensions of the structure are left unchanged, it will restrict the channel after it is widened, causing a backwater near the structure. When deciding on the reconstruction of an irrigation canal, it is important to consider how different degrees of compression of the canal by the structure will affect the flow elements under conditions of unsteady flow. Studying this issue will help determine the ability of the existing structure without reconstruction to ensure the passage of increased water flows at acceptable levels after the canal expansion. A number of numerical experiments have been conducted that take into account the impact of various indicators on the capacity of the structure.
The analysis of the actual conditions of flow in irrigation canals made it possible to properly take into account the nature of unsteady flow in the operation of the irrigation system as a whole. Consideration of the change in water flow in the barrier structure will allow us to determine how flow fluctuations decrease with distance from the structure. This phenomenon is known as flattening or transformation, and it is important in the design of hydraulic structures in irrigation systems.

Published: December 2024

Annotation. In part I, a new type of superregeneration was proposed - chaotic superregeneration. Part II shows, first of all, the perspective of chaotic superregeneration research from the point of view of monitoring the surrounding environment.
A new scheme and a new model of the chaotic superregenerator, which is more stable during its full-scale implementation and simulation, have been determined. Explanations of the reasons for increasing such stability. It is shown that only a relatively small number of potentially suitable schemes of chaotic autogenerators should be used to implement chaotic superregenerators. The main methods of synthesis (construction) of chaotic superregenerators are presented.
A system of ordinary differential equations is proposed, which describes the operation of the model under consideration, and all the data necessary for modeling are determined.
All important simulation results are presented. A method has been developed that directly proves the existence of such a phenomenon as chaotic superregeneration. The existence of qualitatively different regimes during the implementation of chaotic superregeneration was determined, depending on the value of the parameter K (ratio of the frequency of "natural" oscillations and the frequency of quenching).

Goal of the work. Study of a new phenomenon discovered by the authors - chaotic superregeneration. Study of qualitatively different modes of operation of a chaotic superregenerator. Development of a general methodology for the synthesis of chaotic superregenerators. Synthesis of a new stable scheme and a new model in its mathematical modeling. Development of a method of direct proof of the existence of the phenomenon of chaotic superregeneration.
Key words: Discovery of the phenomenon of chaotic superregeneration, proof of the existence of the phenomenon of chaotic superregeneration, study of qualitatively different modes of operation of a chaotic superregenerator, general method of synthesizing schemes of chaotic superregenerators.

The available project management methodologies were analyzed, and five typical models of building a corporate project management methodology in the organization were identified. The place and significance of syncretic methodology is outlined. The object of analysis to which the syncretic methodology was applied is described - the Grand portfolio of restoration projects, consisting of projects and portfolios of infrastructure restoration projects. The implemented model of the cyclical process of implementation of management of restoration projects is described. The "system-result" model of the created syncretic methodology of infrastructure restoration project management, which was implemented, is also presented and described.
The implementation of the syncretic project management methodology in the context of the implementation of the Grand portfolio of restoration projects was analyzed from organizational, methodological and instrumental aspects. Each such aspect is considered in the perspective of the five directions that are described. According to the results of the analysis, the regularities that were discovered during the implementation, which influenced the adjustment of the models and methods of the syncretic methodology, were formulated. Also given is a SWOT analysis of the implementation of syncretic methodology models and methods in the implementation of projects and portfolios of restoration projects. Prospects for further scientific research in the chosen direction are also determined.

Published: December 2024

Summary. The purpose of the proposed article is to describe a practical example, experimental and theoretical analysis of strengthening weak soils with geogrids in the base based on field studies of a reinforced soil structure near an overpass. The authors present practical data from field studies of settlement of a reinforced soil structure reinforced with a stabilizing geogrid. The actual data of monitoring the settlement of the structure during two years of operation are presented. The calculated and actual data on the structure near the overpass at km 759+149 of the public road of national importance M-12 are analyzed.
Sufficient previous experience in the design of ground structures with geosynthetic reinforcement with geogrids makes it possible to monitor facilities during operation, and a more detailed understanding of the mechanics of operation and calculation methods for such structures allows for the improvement and optimization of such structures at the design stage through monitoring work. The authors have proven that the use of a stabilizing mattress under a 9-meter-high reinforced concrete structure allowed for uniform settlement of the structure and to predict settlement processes during the commissioning of the structure. Clear field data on the settlement of the structure are provided, which have minimal discrepancies with the calculated ones. Such a monitoring approach allows optimizing design solutions, which may reduce the overconsumption of geogrids in reinforced soil structures, and optimizing design parameters, namely the reinforcement pitch and the length of the reinforcing layer, which affects the project cost and labor intensity of the work.
Keywords: reinforced soil structures, geogrids, geosynthetic materials, soil stabilization, strengthening of weak foundations, retaining wall, geomattress.
MAIN APPROACHES TO IMPROVING THE UNIFIED DIGITAL INTEGRATED INFORMATION AND ANALYTICAL SYSTEM FOR MANAGING THE PROCESS OF RECONSTRUCTION OF REAL ESTATE, CONSTRUCTION AND INFRASTRUCTURE

Summary. The Unified Digital Integrated Information and Analytical System for Managing the Process of Reconstruction of Real Estate, Construction and Infrastructure is studied. The concept of the “DREAM platform” is revealed. It has been shown that the DREAM platform collects, organizes and publishes open data at all stages of recovery projects in real time, implementing the highest standards of transparency and accountability. It is determined that the advantage of using the platform is that anyone, anywhere can monitor project performance and use this information to reduce risks, create accurate reporting, and improve overall project performance. A study of the regulatory framework was conducted, namely, the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine of 15.11.2022 No. 1286 “On the Implementation of a Pilot Project on the Creation, Implementation and Operation of the Unified Digital Integrated Information and Analytical System for Managing the Process of Reconstruction of Real Estate, Construction and Infrastructure”, which is the main regulatory document governing the functioning of the system. The interaction of the DREAM platform with other systems to which it belongs is studied: Register of Damaged and Destroyed Property; Geographic Information System for Regional Development (GIS), which is under development; Unified State System in the Field of Construction (e-Construction); Diia - a single portal of public services; Reconstruction Project Management System or user functionality; Prozorro - an electronic public procurement system; eContracting (under development); Unified State Register; Spending.gov.ua - a single web portal for the use of public funds and the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. The problems that exist today are identified. The main approaches to improving the DREAM platform are developed, including the creation of a separate account for contractors and feedback in the form of developed functionality directly on the website. The advantages and disadvantages of these approaches and the possibility of further application are investigated.

Published: December 2024

Gum rosin merupakan hasil distilasi getah pinus yang terdiri dari asam rosin. Semakin baik kualitas gum rosin maka harganya akan semakin tinggi. Kualitas gum rosin yang dihasilkan PT Inhutani V masih memiliki tipe Water White (WW) sehingga perlu adanya perbaikan proses produksi agar kualitas dan harga gum rosin dapat meningkat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsentrasi terpentin pada proses pemurnian getah pinus terhadap kualitas gum rosin. Proses pembuatan gum rosin melalui dua tahapan, yaitu pemurnian getah dan distilasi. Tahap pemurnian getah menggunakan pelarut terpentin bertujuan untuk menghasilkan larutan getah murni yang disebut Oleo Pine Resin (OPR). Tahap ini dilakukan dengan pemanasan pada suhu 85 oC disertai pengadukan dengan variabel konsentrasi terpentin 28,5%; 30,5%; dan 32,5% dari getah. Kemudian dilanjutkan dengan tahap distilasi pada suhu 175 oC selama 3 jam untuk menghasilkan gum rosin. Gum rosin hasil proses distilasi diuji warna, bilangan asam, titik lunak, dan komponen tidak menguapnya kemudian dibandingan dengan SNI 7636:2020. Dari hasil penelitian, dapat diketahui bahwa semakin tinggi konsentrasi terpentin maka  bilangan asam, titik lunak, dan komponen tidak menguap gum rosin semakin menurun. Hasil gum rosin terbaik yang memenuhi standar SNI 7636:2020 diperoleh pada penambahan terpentin 28,5% dengan warna 6,9, bilangan asam 193,19 mg KOH/g, titik lunak 81,5 oC, dan komponen tidak menguap 98,22%.
