Published: March 2022

This paper presents an optimal PID controller for speed control of DC motor using Smell Agent Optimization (SAO) Algorithm. DC Motor is an energy converter which transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy used in several industrial applications. A SAO based PID is proposed for optimal tuning of the parameters of the controller to improve speed control of the motor.  The SAO uses the phenomenon of smell perception and the intuitive trailing behavior of an agent to identify the source of smell. The integral of time multiplied absolute error (ITAE) is taken as the objective function for obtaining the parameters of the PID controller. It has been observed SAO-PID controller outperforms the GA based PID controller with less settling time, rise time and overshoot. Keywords— DC motor, PID controller, rising time, settling time, smell agent optimization algorithm

Published: March 2022

In this paper, we investigate a multi-user one-way dual-hop multi-relay cognitive radio underlay spectrum sharing network. .The joint optimal resource allocation of the bandwidth and power allocation in underlay Cooperative Cognitive Radio Relay Network (CCRRN) was studied and a convex optimization analytical framework is presented. A combined optimal power and bandwidth allocation (COPBA) scheme for the minimization of the total network power and blocking probability of the call admission control stage of the CCRRN is investigated. Our goal is to jointly optimize the bandwidth and power allocation such that the total transmission power in the CCRRN is minimized without compromising the Quality of Service (QoS) demands of the secondary users (SUs) and the interference constraint thresholds of the primary users (PUs) in the primary networks. The mathematical model and convex optimization problem with the aim of minimizing the total transmission power of the CCRRN was formulated. The resulting optimization problem was solved in the standard computer based numerical optimization solver package CONOPT in MATLAB/TOMLAB environment. Simulation results obtained is compared the equal-bandwidth optimal power allocation scheme. Keywords—Radio resource allocations; Cognitive radio Networks; Convex optimization; Cooperative relay networks, Transmit power minimization

Published: March 2022

Security of human life and property is one of the paramount challenges facing any corporate organization or nation. Security systems are necessary everywhere especially in residential buildings, industrial area and public offices. The need for automatic sliding gates has been on the increase in recent times because it does not require manual operation. The digital sliding gating system described in this work uses the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for access control. The RFID module, which is the sensing unit of the system, is interfaced with the processing unit (Atmega8a microcontroller) for controlling the actuating unit (sg90 servo motor). The sliding gate opens partially when the valid card for human access is brought closer to the reader, it opens fully when the valid card for vehicle access is brought closer to the reader while an invalid card brought closer to the reader activates the buzzer. The time taken for the reader to read the tag is 3 seconds for both human and vehicle access while the waiting period between the opening and closing of the gate are 10 seconds and 21 seconds for human and vehicle access respectively. These operations are made possible by the programmable microcontroller used and the pivot joint mechanism for the fast opening and closing of the gate. The developed system was tested and it performed as designed.Keywords— Microcontroller, Pivot joint, Radio Frequency Identification, Sliding gate, Tag.

Published: March 2022

A estria é uma atrofia da pele, adquirida devido ao rompimento das fibras elásticas presentes na derme. Estrias podem afetar tanto homens quanto mulheres, porém a frequência é maior no gênero feminino, sendo uma das principais queixas estéticas das mulheres. A corrente microgalvânica é usada no tratamento das estrias e tem a função de provocar um processo inflamatório agudo no tecido com posterior regeneração do mesmo. Este estudo teve como objetivo comparar as técnicas de escarificação e ponturação após aplicação da microgalvanopuntura. Participaram do estudo oito voluntárias, portadoras de estrias albas, que foram submetidas a quatro sessões de microgalvanopuntura na região glútea. As técnicas de ponturação e escarificação foram realizadas do lado direito e esquerdo, respectivamente. A avaliação dos resultados foi realizada através da medida do comprimento das estrias além da medida de planimetria pré e pós tratamento, além da utilização de um questionário de satisfação da paciente em relação às técnicas de escarificação e ponturação. Concluiu-se ambas às técnicas melhoraram o aspecto das estrias, sendo que a técnica de ponturação foi superior a técnica de escarificação. Portanto as técnicas de escarificação e ponturação em conjunto com a aplicação de corrente microcorrente galvânica podem ser consideradas como uma opção no tratamento de estrias devido a diminuição da extensão das áreas afetadas e conseqüente melhora no aspecto geral da pele.

Exploring the Individual and Interpersonal Obstructive Factors Affecting Contraceptive Usage among Married Fertile Women in Rural Vicinities of Multan District, Pakistan
Authors: Ishfaq Uzma , Sattar Tehmina , Ara Gulshan
Published: March 2022

Family Planning is the most effective tool to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality during pregnancy. Contraceptive usage is the widely accepted method for birth spacing among married women in reproductive age span. In Pakistan, contraceptive prevalence is low in rural areas as compared to urban milieus. For exploring the present research phenomenon, the ethnographic research design was used to determine the subjective meaning-making of participants about the study phenomenon. Informal Discussions (IDs), N=20 In-Depth Interviews (IDIs), and N=6 Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were conducted in two adjacent villages X and Y of Multan, Pakistan. Interview guide and discussion guide were used to explore the responses of the participants through thematic analysis. The present research results illustrated that the causes behind disinclination for contraceptive usage prevailed at two major levels, i.e. individual and interpersonal. The individual-level obstructive factors comprised of age of the married women, education level of husband, the economic cost of contraceptive usage, and adverse effects of contraceptives on the health of married females. Furthermore, the inter-personal level factors comprehended of husband opposition towards contraception usage, and discussion about contraception usage with husband as an anti-normative act. In conclusion, the orthodox, misogynistic, and gender-biased normative structure snatched the reproductive autonomy of married women. Resultantly, the women changed their fertility preferences and avoided birth spacing through contraceptive usage. Government intervention through social media awareness campaigns, provision of monthly incentives, and facilitation of “health card” could be used to ensure high prevalence of contraceptive usage among married women in the study locale.

Published: March 2022

Asset management is an asset management in a certain period of time that provides assurance about the value of an asset in currency units and also regulates the minimum amount of expenditure. Because the asset itself contains value and means to the agency, it must be properly managed. PT. Krakatau IT has several divisions, one of which is the Infrastructure division where there are several parts, one of which is the EUD (End User Device) unit which is in charge of maintaining, installing, repairing and changing assets.

Activities carried out by the EUD unit of PT. In managing these assets, Krakatau IT still uses conventional methods, namely the process of first making the asset handover form and stored in a filing cabinet so that asset data can be lost or damaged.

Asset data processing with conventional methods can make it difficult to produce reports so that the process of searching and recapitulating data takes a long time which results in ineffective and efficient presentation of a report.

On this occasion the authors propose to make an information system design application to manage assets in order to be able to present information more effectively and efficiently.

Published: March 2022

This study aims to provide an authentic and objective decision-making system on performance appraisal. The process of selecting outstanding lecturers should not be influenced by the element of subjectivity from those who choose, so it is felt that they do not support the process. To overcome the above problems, a decision support system was made to assist the process of selecting outstanding lecturers at the Yatna Yuana Lebak Nursing Academy. In this study, the Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problem solving using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method was used. This method was chosen because it can determine the weight value of each criterion, which is then carried out a ranking process to determine the best alternative from a number of alternatives. With this ranking method, it is hoped that the assessment can be more precise because it is based on the criteria and weights that have been determined so that it gets a more accurate assessment result of who gets the predicate of outstanding lecturer. With this research, it is expected to evaluate the extent to which the system that has been implemented can affect the quality of education at the Yatna Yuana Lebak Nursing Academy.

A Lights are one of the basic needs in everyday life, both in household life, offices, and others, especially at the Pematangsiantar Police Station. In line with the rapid development in the field of technology, the amount of electricity demand tends to increase rapidly. This increase in demand can be caused by the increasing number of people using electrical technology. However, there needs to be a wise attitude in the use of this lighting energy source. If the lamp is left on, it will waste electricity. This often happens because you forget to turn it off. But if it is turned off then at night it will be dark until someone turns on the light. Therefore, automation is needed in regulating the use of electrical energy in lamps. In this case, an automatic lamp design was made using an Arduino-based light sensor that can be set to turn on and off automatically according to the intensity of sunlight received so that it will suit the needs of the lamp. This automatic lamp is equipped with Arduino, LDR module, and relay. The lighting load is usually operated manually by humans, with this study, human intervention in operations can be reduced. The results of this study showed that the Arduino-based light sensor can be implemented in the design of automatic lights.

Published: March 2022

Background: The cancer is associated with a state of hypercoagulability, which may be the cause of venous thromboembolism (VTE), representing an undeniable cause of morbidity and mortality. Our study aimed to investigate the role of hypercoagulability markers (D-dimers, microparticles, and V Leiden mutation) in predicting cancer-associated VTE.
Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted among cancer patients who will receive chemotherapy in the Medical Oncology and Hematology departments of the EHU of Oran, Algeria from February 2013 to May 2015, followed by an observation period of two years. First, we evaluated the risk of cancer-related VTE by hypercoagulability parameters (D-dimers, microparticles, V Leiden mutation). In the second step, we tested the predictive value of the Khorana risk score (KRS) of cancer-related VTE. Then, we developed and tested the predictive value of an expanded score based on the addition of predictive biomarkers to the KRS parameters.
Results: A total of 165 patients were included in our study whose median age was 62 years. More than half were males (52.7%). After an observation period of 2 years, ten patients (6.0%) developed a VTE. Among the criteria studied, only the D-dimers and the microparticles were predictive of VTE in cancer. The positive predictive value (PPV) of the KRS was 13.6%, and the negative predictive value (NPV) was 97.9%. After adding two predictive biomarkers (D-dimers and microparticles), the expanded score had a better predictive value with a PPV of 23.5% and a VPN of 98.6%.
Conclusion: The addition of hypercoagulability biomarkers (microparticles and D-dimers) to the routine clinical and biological parameters of the KRS enhances the predictive potential of VTE risk in cancer.

Change of direction (COD) ability is an important component for most field and court sport athletes. The modified 5-0-5 COD test is a commonly used test to measure 180-degree COD performance, the diagnostic value of which can be advanced using a multiple-timing light set-up to divide the test into sub-phases. The aim of this research was to determine what proportion of the 5-0-5 COD test was spent performing the 180-degree COD, whether anthropometry and position of the player influenced the sub-phase performance and provide an alternative approach to improve diagnostics for coaches and practitioners. Ten elite female netball athletes participated in this study. Dual beam timing gates set at 0, 2, and 4 m were used to isolate the phases of the 5-0-5 COD test and quantify COD performance. Independent t-tests were used to assess statistical significance (p<0.05) between anthropometry, position, and performance of the sub-phases. Rank-order of sub-phase performance was also conducted to determine individualized performance across phases. The highest percentage of time was spent during the 180-degree turn and reacceleration 1 phase (~23%). Heavier athletes were significantly slower for deceleration (9.26%), 180-degree turn (17.1%), reacceleration 2 (7.32%) and total time (8.68%), however no differences were identified between taller and shorter players. A sub-phase rank order table was used to provide diagnostic and training insights that allow more targeted programming to improve COD performance.

ECONOMIA COMPORTAMENTAL APLICADA A COVID-19: UM EXERCÍCIO ANALÍTICO DO USO DE “NUDGES” EM POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS
Authors: Regina Alves de Freitas Barros Simone , Santos Albuquerque Ana Paula dos
Published: March 2022

Qualquer crise de saúde global requer mudanças de comportamento em grande escala sobre os indivíduos, contudo, se faz necessário, um estudo sobre o comportamento desses. O principal objetivo deste trabalho, é abordar por meio de uma análise teórico-reflexiva como a Economia Comportamental e o uso de nudges contribuíram na implementação de políticas públicas durante a pandemia da Covid-19. A análise apontou que a Economia Comportamental emergiu por volta da década de 1970 como um novo ramo da psicologia e foi denominada por pesquisa da decisão comportamental. Nela, as pessoas buscam auxílio para melhorar a capacidade de julgamento e tomada de decisões, sendo que as políticas públicas se tornam a maneira mais adequada para tal finalidade. Dessa forma, o uso da Economia Comportamental pelos agentes públicos que realizam a gestão de políticas públicas, podem gerar um Estado mais eficiente. Diante do contexto de pandemia, é sabido que diversas medidas foram adotadas pelos entes públicos para conter a propagação do vírus, a maioria de caráter impositivo e unilateral. No entanto, houve ainda, a inserção de instrumentos de regulação e de “não autoridade”, dentre eles, os nudges. Seu uso nada mais é, do que uma medida interventiva, a partir da persuasão, indução e convencimento social. Os nudges não constrangem ou força ninguém a uma ação, também, não reduz liberdade de escolha ou faz apelos racionais ou emocionais. Eles apenas contribuem, facilitando, o controle do comportamento desejado.
WOMEN IN MESOPOTAMIAN CIVILIZATION

Published: March 2022

The ancient Mesopotamia had ancient civilizations such as Babylonian and Sumerian, which provided many civilizational achievements, such as laws and legislation, which urged respect for women's rights and other legislations to protect such laws, such as the reforms of Prince Urkagina and the law of Hammurabi, which emphasis on some women's rights and dignity and curb violations of men's abuse. However, in most agricultural civilizations, especially the Mesopotamian, the status of women has declined in a patriarchal society. Men direct all aspects of life with their different diversities, make major decisions, and women have to obey this masculine authority. Father, or husband after marriage and family formation. Despite this, the status of women in Mesopotamia was much better than that of other ancient civilizations such as Greek and the Roman. Sumerian women had more rights than women had in the Akkadian, Babylonian and Assyrian cultures. A Sumerian woman can own real estate, run a business alongside her husband, and can be a priest, a writer, a doctor,or act as a judge. It is a tribute to the representatives of the earthly Gods, and it is a source of pride for them. Service of the girls in the temples is also a pride for their fathers. Babel was unique in the way she treated women's rights and status. Babylonian society retained the traditions of the motherly era, and women often took precedence over men. Women were also allowed to enjoy different levels of independense, but they were always subject to men. The laws of Hammurabi presented first model of the laws in the entire ancient world. The status of women in the old Babylonian law has reached an important amount of social, human and legislative progress. Legislation on marriage, its forms, divorce, cases, abuse and marital irregularities, incest and adultery. As for the status of women in the Assyrians, their social status has declined compared to their status in the Sumerian and Babylonian civilizations. They were considered to be the property of men, and they have the right to deprive them of everything they own. Assyrians were also among the oldest religious peoples who subjected women to hijab and included head and face jackets. Only free women were permitted to wear headscarves, while odalisque wore hijab when they went out with their master.

Concrete became most popular material due to its low cost, versatility, availability of ingredients and excellent resistance to water and played significant role in development of the world for last one and half century but cement is the main ingredient for the concrete production. There are different sources of carbon di oxide emission during cement production. The largest source is combustion of fossil fuels to operate rotary kiln and other on is de-carbonation of limestone in the kiln during manufacturing of cement. The raw materials such as lime stone, clay and other minerals are required for the manufacture of cement, but quarrying of these raw materials is also causes environmental degradation. The climate change and environmental pollution is major problem of the world is facing today also responsible to the global warming. Therefore, to preserve the global environment from the impact of cement production then reduced the amount of Portland cement and replacing it with material which has lower manufacturing temperature. Also, to produce environmental friendly concrete, we have to replace the cement with the industrial by products such as fly ash and other geo-based materials. Thus the Geopolymer concrete is a good solution for producing an environmental friendly type of concrete. The geo-polymer concrete is one of the revolutionary developments related to novel materials resulting in low-cost and environmentally friendly material as best alternative to cement concrete. In this work cement is replaced with fly ash by 50%, 75% and 100% and alkaline solution which is the combination of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate with different proportion i.e. 9M and 12M were used to determine compresive strength for M25 and M30 grade of concrete and compare with the conventional concrete. From the analysis it is observed that the Geopolymer concrete can be used under conditions similar to those suitable for ordinary portland cement concrete also, shows the good alternative to ordinary portland cement concrete.

Never Mind Betrayal: America's Indifference to the Kurds is a Strategic Blunder
Authors: Honigman Jonathan
Published: March 2022

Although they have proven themselves to be loyal and capable U.S. partners, America has refused to endorse either independence for Iraqi Kurds or autonomy for Syrian Kurds. That policy has been academically underscored by several Realism-based concepts including an offshore balancing approach to the Middle East. This paper argues that America can adjust to new realities in the region without having to forsake its worthwhile Kurdish partnerships. I first compare and contrast the costs of American support for Kurds and then refute the notion that Kurdish independence in Iraq or autonomy in Syria would cause instability or be nonviable. I then recount recent Kurdish actions that have benefited America and argue that the subsequent U.S. capitulations to Baghdad and Ankara were unnecessary and strategically short-sighted. Lastly, I examine America's relationship with Turkey to discern if it merits impeding U.S. Kurdish policy. This paper concludes that America's endorsement of independence in Iraqi Kurdistan and perpetual autonomy in Northeast Syria would not be merely altruistic, but primarily a realpolitik reassertion of U.S. geopolitical strategy.
Voskopoja and Ioannina, two advanced centers of the European Enlightenment in the Ottoman West
Authors: Barka Panajot
Published: March 2022

This paper considers the impact of Enlightenment ideals before and during the Movement of the New Greek National Ideology during the 17th to 19th centuries. It is about Ioannina and Voskopoja, located today respectively in northwestern Greece and in southeastern Albania. In both centers, education was central to the spread of Western Enlightenment values, and attempts to communicate across the languages of the region were the main key. Voskopoja is a typical case of the flourishing of Enlightenment values in the service of economic and cultural development. With its defining basis of Hellenic culture, and its emphasis on secular knowledge, the purpose of education was ‘enlightening’ the hearts and minds of the Balkan peoples, seen as the only way to overthrow the Ottoman Empire. The ideological platform promoted in Ioannina, and on behalf of Greek nationalism, served as the basis for the platform of the Albanian national ideology.
