Improvement of the Thermal Performance of a Drilling Tool Case by Using Metal Additive Manufacturing
Authors: Galleguillos Carlos , Hervás Daniel , Periñán Antonio , Lasagni Fernando
Published: September 2023

Metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been established as one of the most promising solutions when producing new components due to its advantages in creating complex geometries and adding new functionality to the parts. An example of the last, is the usage of conformal cooling in the tooling industry to improve the thermal behaviour of components in-service. The application of this solution is even more meaningful when using metallic materials with high thermal conductivities (e.g. Aluminium alloys). These are mainly selected when the final weight is a key factor in the final component performance, compared with other conductive materials like copper alloys. This study presents the improvement of the thermal behaviour of a drilling tool case manufactured in Aluminium. The selected application case lacks the possibility of evacuating the heat produced by an engine. A redesign of the component is presented, considering the advantages of Powder Bed Fusion – Laser/Metal (PBF-L/M). Both passive and active heat dissipation are analysed by including the reticular structure and internal cavities with forced air. The study is performed first at coupon level and later in the redesigned case manufactured by PBF-L/M. Infrared Thermography (IRT) inspections are conducted to investigate the thermal dissipation when heating the components, and also to monitor the cooling down process. A comparative thermal analysis between the initial case manufactured by the conventional process and the redesigned AM case is also presented.

Published: September 2023

The Laser Directed Energy Deposition (L-DED) is an Additive Manufacturing process based on the direct injection of the filler material into the desired areas of a substrate. Damaged components can be repaired or coated in order to enhance their properties and increase their lifespan. However, this process is highly material dependent and to assure the quality of the deposited material, the process parameters need to be optimised. In the present work, a novel material for the L-DED is developed, the 15CDV6 aeronautical steel. The material was atomized ad hoc and the obtained powder was characterized (particle shape, size distribution, and chemical composition) in order to ensure its quality. Once the powder was analysed, the suitability of the 15CDV6 steel for the L-DED process was studied through a methodology consisting of three sequential steps: single clad tests, layer deposition and wall construction. The main process parameters (laser power, feed rate and powder feed rate) were controlled during these tests. Nevertheless, the initial tests showed high levels of porosity, which required considering additional process parameters to reduce them, such as the carrier and shielding gas flows, preheating, or the laser beam diameter. Consequently, the porosity formation mechanisms were identified and the most relevant process parameters established, which for the 15CDV6 steel were the gas flows. The effect of the shielding gas flow in the powder distribution below the nozzle was studied experimentally by digital image analysis to better interpret the obtained results and determine the optimum process parameters for achieving defect free parts. The quality of the deposited material was studied through metallographic analysis and an Acicular Ferrite structure was observed, ensuring good mechanical properties. To summarise, this research work proves the viability of employing 15CDV6 steel in the L-DED process and has determined the main process parameters to obtain porosity-free parts.

Published: September 2023

Laser metal deposition (LMD) industrial use demands research about the influence of the parameters in the built parts density, accuracy and mechanical properties. Especially for the thin-wall parts, knowledge about the correlations between processing parameters and the final result is indispensable. This study explores the relationship between process parameters and the quality of AISI316L stainless steel thin-walled parts produced by LMD. A six-axis robot equipped with a deposition head allowed relative spatial movement between the powder nozzle and laser beam and substrate with high accuracy. Controlled energy input provided by continuous wave Ytterbium fibre laser allows using less material flow rate and the production of thin layers in test samples. Three processing parameters were selected to investigate the effects on part characteristics using a Box-Behnken experimental design. Through this method, each parameter was evaluated between 600 W to 800 W laser power, 6 mm/s to 14 mm/s feedrate and 0.2 mm to 0.4 mm layer thickness. All remaining parameters were fixed using argon to provide an inert atmosphere, 8.8 g/min powder feeding rate and 1.5 mm spot diameter. The method was used to test the manufacture of thin-wall cylindrical specimens with 10 mm in height and 75 mm in diameter. Fabricated AISI316L samples were evaluated regarding the dimensional and geometrical characteristics. It was observed that higher energy input density during the laser additive manufacturing implies lower geometric precision. Feedrate and layer thickness has the highest impact on both the wall thickness and vertical accuracy. Given the inability to produce parts with an acceptable final surface, the process finds great applicability when complemented with additional finishing technologies.

Published: September 2023

Space traveling, extra-planetary exploration and even colonization requires to replicate our capabilities of manufacturing under non-entirely known environments and conditions. With the recent, yet always present, interest on colonizing spaces like the Moon or even Mars, space-based Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been considered for enabling space inhabitants to build their own tools. However, the same manufacturing techniques that are commonly used on Earth are not entirely applicable in space, especially during the considerably long traveling stage. Thus, several works have reported the study of how AM could be used in microgravity or near-zero g conditions by using the International Space Station as a laboratory. Unfortunately, the costs for doing such experiments are prohibitive, which is why experimentation in microgravity conditions on Earth is promising. In this paper, we explore the possibility of applying light-sensitive resin under Microgravity conditions using a Drop Tower facility and we propose a microgravity liquid printing technique. Our preliminary experiments focused on studying movement and extrusion velocities, extrusion nozzle diameter, UV light power, extrusion, and solidification times. The experimental runs (one catapult launch and four drops) let us find promising, although not entirely conclusive, data and practices to be considered in future works using this methodology. As expected, there is a similarity to liquid extrusion on Earth given that the initial shape and speed of extrusion influences the liquid material. Our findings also suggest that an initial contact point would help to increase the contact force due to surface tension and that the extrusion and solidification times are less than 5 seconds, which implies faster printing processes than in earth gravity conditions because the microgravity provides us less layer mixing during extrusion. The hardware, material and Microgravity drop tests used confirm the feasibility of this technique and they become an initial step for this printing process and liquid materials.

Published: September 2023

Introducción: La tuberculosis es una enfermedad de declaración obligatoria en España. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar su situación epidemiológica en el periodo 2015-2021. 
Método: Análisis epidemiológico descriptivo de los casos de TB notificados por las CCAA a la RENAVE durante 2015-2021. Las variables analizadas fueron: sexo, edad, CCAA, año de declaración, país de nacimiento y residencia, localización, fecha del caso, resultado del tratamiento, estado frente al VIH y diagnóstico. Se realizó análisis descriptivo de las variables principales y temporo-espacial de las tasas de notificación.
Resultados: En 2021, se notificaron 3.754 casos de TB en España, con una tasa de notificación de 7,61 por 100.000 habitantes. Hubo una disminución del 2,18% respecto a 2020 y del 28,07% respecto a 2015. Durante todo el periodo de estudio, se observó un mayor número de casos en hombres (razón 1,6-1,7) y una tendencia decreciente en las tasas de notificación en todas las CCAA, excepto Ceuta. Este descenso de tasas fue superior para las formas pulmonares. La tasa de letalidad se mantuvo relativamente estable para ambos sexos. La calidad de la información proporcionada ha mejorado entre 2015 y 2021, pero se mantiene baja o incluso ha disminuido en variables esenciales como “resultado del tratamiento” o “diagnóstico de VIH”.
Conclusiones: La incidencia de TB en España descendió de 2015 a 2021, especialmente en formas pulmonares. Se alcanzaron dos metas de la OMS para 2020, pero la meta fijada para 2035 parece improbable. Persisten importantes deficiencias en la calidad de la información.

Abstract: The paper aims to emphasize the role of living-labs in cities’ transition to a circular economy (CE). The paper purpose was addressed by an analyse different types of living-labs. The circular economy concept is an umbrella concept that has grown in recent years, both globally and locally, being increasingly addressed through measures, policies and rules. CE is a sustainability paradigm that has the goal to harmonize the sustanability pillars: economic, environment and social.

Currently more than half of the world's population lives in cities, while forecasts show a two-thirds increase by 2050 (70%), in addition 75% of global natural resources and 80% of global energy supply are consumed by cities, so that there is a growing need for a transition to a sustainable society.

A living-lab is a system or a consortium of stakeholders, based on open innovation, which is meant to solve a problem the stakeholders face in the society.

The analyse showed that the principal focus of the living-labs model is on the folowing subjects: green, smart mobility, building standards, efficient use of resources, energy conservation, social and economic equity and waste management. The studied model shown that the living-lab concept is an appropriate instrument of CE to meet the sustainable development goals.

Authors: Jibat Merga , Alo Shamil
Published: September 2023

Black pod disease of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) caused by Phytophthora palmivora is the major constraint in cocoa production in southwestern Ethiopia. Therefore, integrated field management trials were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of different fungicides against a disease epidemic of cocoa black pod in southwestern Ethiopia. The field experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with seven treatments and three replications. The experiment was performed during the 2021 and 2022 main cropping seasons using five fungicides: Copper oxychloride (Koka blue 50 WG) combined with cultural practices, Agro-laxyl 63.5 WP (Metalaxyl + Mancozeb) combined with cultural practices, Progress 250 EC (Propiconazole 25%) combined with cultural practices, Ethiozeb 80% WP (Mancozeb) combined with cultural practices, More 720 WP (Mancozeb  +Cymoxanil) combined with cultural practices, cultural practices alone and control without any cultural practices and fungicides spray for control of black pod infection. Cultural practices such as nutrient management, pruning, plant and field hygiene etc. were implemented in all treatments except control. The results of the experiment indicated that copper oxychloride (Koka blue 50 WG) combined with cultural practices significantly affected the cocoa black pod epidemics. When paired with cultural practices, copper oxychloride (Koka blue 50 WG) had a considerably greater impact on lowering disease severity (4.76) than the other treatments. Additionally, compared to control plots, the incidence of disease was reduced by more than 50% when cultural practices alone were used. This shows that in farms where black pod disease severity is low, the disease may be economically managed by implementing cultural measures alone. So, the the study's findings, black pod disease can be controlled in areas with a high disease incidence by combining the application of copper oxychloride (Koka blue 50 WG) with other cultural practices.

The dynamics of the development of an increasingly modern global society along with the development of its economy has also influenced the pattern of life of the people themselves. Credit cards as an aspect of modern society's life have become a means of payment in lieu of cash which is increasingly in demand by the public or consumers today, because they have their own prestige, and have even become a lifestyle trend in big cities. This is also supported by the many shopping centers that serve cashless payments. In Law Number 8 of 1999 Article 1 paragraph (1) concerning Consumer Protection, it states that "Consumer protection is all efforts that guarantee legal certainty to provide protection to consumers." The general objective of writing this thesis is to explain how to study consumer protection law for consumers who use credit cards. The increase the use of credit cards is certainly triggered many benefits that can experienced credit card holders, especially the ease of making transactions and security for consumers because they do not need to carry large amounts of cash. The approach to using a credit card is not only carried out in terms of economic needs, but must also be supported by a legal approach, so that it is recognized and applies in economic law relations. This type of research empirical legal research and the nature of research is descriptive qualitative and the data used are primary and secondary data.

Does violation of regulations hurt firm value enhanced: Evidence from Taiwan banking industry?
Authors: Ni Yensen , Fan Yangchu , Liao Yulu , Hsu Yu-Min
Published: September 2023

This study investigates the impact of penalties, including sanctions, corrections, and fine payments, on firm value within the context of the banking industry on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) from 2017 to 2021. Utilizing data from the Financial Supervisory Commission, we employ rigorous statistical methods, such as multiple regression and Petersen regression models, to discern whether these punitive measures affect firm performance. Intriguingly, our findings indicate that firms subject to financial sanctions and penalties in Taiwan experience an improvement in their firm value, challenging the conventional belief that such penalties erode value. We propose that this unexpected outcome may be attributed to the potential gains derived from expanding business activities, even in violation of banking regulations, outweighing the associated regulatory costs. By shedding light on this under-researched aspect of the literature, our study contributes to a broader understanding of how regulatory penalties impact firm value in the banking industry, thereby providing regulatory authorities with practical insights.
Social Media and Electoral Law Violation in Cameroon: The Case of the 2018 Presidential Election
Authors: Mekole Henry Ekpele
Published: September 2023

Most presidential elections in Africa, especially in the central African sub-region have always ended up in some form of violence. Ever since the social media became a key tool in elections including those organize in African countries, it has been used as a platform to either decrease or escalate election violence, given its characteristics. The social media is not regulated, the law governing its use is difficult to enforce, everybody can create contents, it has a wider reach and it can be used to spread information instantly. The 2018 presidential election in Cameroon was marked by violence. The violence was blamed partly on the way the social media was used by different actors during the 2018 presidential election. This paper examines how the social media was used by actors of the election to violate the electoral code. The theoretical assumptions of this research are based on agenda setting which deals with the prioritization of stories or issues, their treatment and their place in the media. The paper used a quantitative research approach. A total of 176 questionnaires were distributed to voters. They were based in Douala and Buea. Key the findings reveal that social media was used to violate the electoral code during the 2018 election as 103 (58.5%) respondents received or read campaign messages before the official campaign. The findings equally reveal that the social media was used to spread fake news, and misinformation which played a role to incite and facilitate violence. The implication of this finding is that it will get election stakeholders to understand the dangers of the social media especially during elections and see what needs to be done to make the social media a better tool for election management.

The effect of digitalization on corporate execution is restricted in view of the low degree of digitalization. The chain management link has improved performance significantly, reduced costs, and increased efficiency. Farm production processes, risk management, market trends, and strategic decision-making capabilities can all be improved with the knowledge and insights gleaned from an ever-increasing volume of digital data. On the other hand, advanced data analytics has the capability of reshaping the agricultural value chain as a whole. The relationships between technology and input suppliers, farmers, traders, processing units, retailers, and consumers may fundamentally shift as a result of digitization. Through the creation of a scientific model, this digitalization strategy investigates a variety of advancements, patterns, and strategies to improve farming efficiency in the computerized age. This paper aims to discuss the most significant opportunities and challenges presented by digitization processes for the rice production in northern India and south India. Predictive analytics, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things are widely regarded as promising new tools for ensuring a more sustainable resource use and increasing the agriculture-food industry’s competitiveness and productivity. The introduction to this paper discusses several significant digital technologies, including Internet of Things. This paper also examines how computerized change can boost corporate execution & increase esteem creation. The research also evolved as digital transformation progressed. This paper presents a sensor-based strategy for the rice crops in India’s north and south. To calculate the requirements for nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, temperature, and humidity for rice crop agriculture in north and south India, an algorithm is proposed which uses approximately 2201 datasets. It makes it possible for farmers to cultivate a wide range of rice crops in their fields with minimal effort.

Published: September 2023

This research aims to investigate the association between workplace bullying and employee silence along with the mediating effect of psychological contract breach (PCB). Three types of silence – acquiescent, defensive and pro-social have been taken into consideration. The data for this research was collected from 430 respondents from various services sector of India. The result shows that workplace bullying significantly impacts employee silence while psychological contract breach partially mediates the association between bullying and silence at workplace. This research is one of the few studies especially in Asian countries where the three factors, bullying, PCB and silence have been taken for study. This study also becomes crucial as different dimensions of silence have been considered rather than taking employee silence as a whole. This research work could be an alarm bell for organizations where mistreatments like bullying is rampant and silence among employees is observed.

Published: September 2023

Along with the quick developments in technology, expectations in health care services and attention to quality and accreditation has increased. This study aims to explore the perspectives of Health Accreditation Auditors (HAAs) who work for Turkish Health Care Quality and Accreditation Institute (TUSKA) on health care accreditation.

There are 202 auditors within TUSKA who got their HAA title before 2021 and so far, 57 HAAs have been assigned for active duty in the audits. In this study, participants were chosen among the HAAs who attended audits actively via snowball sampling and 15 of them were interviewed. Obtained data were analyzed by MAXQDA.

For the purpose of obtaining the perspectives of the HAAs, a list of 17 codes and with the review of these codes, 5 inclusive themes were created. These themes are institutional contribution, institutional development, necessity, financial performance and practicality.

The HAAs clearly stated that accreditation process contributed to health care institutions positively, accelerated institutional development, proved to be necessary, affected institutions’ financial performance positively, and can be implied to any health care institution easily. On the other hand, there were some dissidences among the HAAs on the effect of accreditation on patient potential, perspectives of the managers on accreditation, health care institutions’ acceptance of accreditation standards, financial burden of the standards and the cost of applications.

Physical Education and Sports' Effects on Students' Lives
Authors: Dr Kalidas P Tadlapurkar
Published: September 2023

Participation in physical activities has been found to be an important factor in contributing to a healthy lifestyle. Research has found strong relationships between participation in regular physical activity and the prevention of disease, while its relationship to the psychological and social dimensions has been neglected. Recently however, several studies have found causal relationships between physical activity and improved mood state, reduced anxiety, reduced depression, and increased social support. Despite this, surveys indicate that participation levels in physical activities are declining among older Indians, with the exceptions of walking and gardening. This paper also examines the constraints to participation in leisure programs, such as lack of time, poor health, and fear of crime, the financial cost and the lack of a partner to participate with. A number of strategies have been suggested to overcome these constraints.Participation in physical activities has been found to be an important factor in contributing to a healthy lifestyle.
