Bamboo lumber – an innovative sustainable raw material and an accelerated weathering study for establishing its durability
Authors: Yadav Ranjana , K.K Pandey , Chawla Vipin Kumar
Published: March 2023

Bamboo lumber was prepared using Bambusa bamboos species and its weathering performance was evaluated under natural and accelerated weathering. Specimens of bamboo lumber were exposed to natural weathering for 150 days. Another set of specimens were exposed to UV light source (UVA 360) in accelerated weathering tester up to 250 hours. A comparative study on the level of degradation in natural and accelerated weathering was made by evaluating CIEL*a*b* colour changes measured using a Hunter lab spectro-colorimeter. Rate of color change due to photo-degradation were evaluated. Results showed that all three color axes, viz. lightness (L*), redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) changed linearly with respect to time under natural exposure, but only L* was changed under accelerated weathering, keeping a* and b* values to be almost constant. Photodegradation of bamboo was mainly due to UV light absorption by chromophores present in the lignin, which constitutes about 32,2 % of total bamboo.

Authors: Cao Yi , Li Huaihai , Liu Zhongshuai , Long Chunyu
Published: March 2023

To ensure the stability of the slope in Shangping, 5 monitoring sections and 17 monitoring points were set up on site. The most dangerous sliding profile of the slope was determined through data analysis; the stability coefficient of the slope was 1.03 by numerical calculation, which did not meet the engineering requirements and indicated that the slope was in an unstable state; the slope reinforcement plan of "anti-slip pile + anchor + drainage cut-off" was formulated by combining the monitoring data and simulation results, and the stability coefficient of the slope after reinforcement was 1.28 by numerical calculation, which met the reinforcement requirements of the project and indicated that the reinforcement plan was feasible. The stability coefficient is 1.28, which is 24.3% higher than that before reinforcement, which meets the reinforcement requirements and indicates that the reinforcement plan is feasible.
New Progress in the Study of Quark Mass Unlock the Secrets of Strong Force
Authors: Liu Yun , Liu Zhe , Liu Ziyi
Published: March 2023

The unification of the four forces is the ultimate goal of physics. At present, humans have not really unified the power and the strong force, and the source of the strong force remains a mystery. In 2018, Liu Yun proposed a new formula to accurately calculate the static mass of particles. Later, Liu Ziyi assumed that the particle was composed of three charges with integer 1, and believed that the particle's high rate spin produced the strong force. According to Coulomb's law and relativity, he deduced the formula for the strong force coefficient between particles and Λc(2287), and found that the strong force decreases with the increase of the distance and finally tends to a constant. By substituting the force value into Liu Yun's static mass formula, the mass spectrum obtained is in good agreement with that of J/ψ particles. After they have the same method, found that positive and negative Λb(5500) accidentally Υ particle particle mass spectra and the experimental mass spectrum highly accord with more, more surprisingly, almost coincide with triplet experimental data. These highly consistent simulations show that the strong force comes from the rapid rotation of the charges inside the particles, and strongly suggest that the so-called quarks are ordinary particles that already exist, making the catalytic development of nuclear energy possible.
How does green marketing on social media affect consumers' green purchase intention? Based on the perspective of greenwash and green brand image
Authors: Liu Fanqing , Tang Qing
Published: March 2023

As the demand for green consumption increases, brands carry out green marketing activities through social media more and more frequently, which will lead to two distinct effects -- the green brand image and greenwash perceived by consumers. We believe that greenwash, as a negative effect caused by the explosive growth of green marketing on social media, may be inhibited by the positive brand image created by the brand's own green marketing, thus affecting consumers' expected environmental consequences (i.e. green perceived value and green perceived risk), and thus enhancing their green purchase intention. The empirical results of 351 questionnaires show that green brand image can weaken consumers' perception of greenwashing, improve consumers' perceived value of green, reduce their perceived risk of green, and enhance their green purchase intention. Meanwhile, compared with green brand image, greenwash has less influence on green purchase intention. Therefore, we suggest that brands trust the effect of social media green marketing and control the quality of related activities to prevent a large number of low-quality marketing activities from causing the generalization of greenwash.
Equivalent value of non-uniform temperature field for thermocouple measurement
Authors: Yue Lingling , Huang Qinghuang , Li Luqiang , Wang Peiyong
Published: March 2023

The incoming flow is assumed to have a uniform temperature profile when the energy balance of a thermocouple bead is analyzed for the purpose of measurement corrections, which is hardly true in real applications. The incoming temperature is normally non-uniform and the temperature of the flow closer to the bead has a stronger influence on the bead temperature. Considering this, for the first time, a Gaussian probability density function is established to generate an equivalent temperature of the non-uniform temperature field, which can be used in the corrections. With the one-dimensional thermocouple heat transfer program, the bead temperatures are calculated with five non-uniform temperature profiles and compared with the bead temperatures with the uniform temperatures to find the variance correlation of the Gaussian function. The variance is correlated to the Nusselt number and the wire diameter and the bead diameter of the thermocouple. Many cases with different thermocouple sizes, velocities and temperature ranges and widths of the power function profile are simulated. For all the tested cases, the bead temperature differences between the real profiles and the equivalent profiles are less than 27K, demonstrating the good accuracy of the current method.
Monitoring and Numerical Simulation of Differential Settlement of Widened Roads
Authors: Shen Qihua , Hu Jianhan , Zhang Xiaochun
Published: March 2023

As the modulus difference exists, road widening is often susceptible to longitudinal cracks at the intersection of the old and new roads, affecting the life of the road and the safety of traffic. For monitoring the differential settlement of the widened road and the creep process of the lower soft soil, a monitoring program is designed and a finite element model is established to figure out the changes in the settlement and earth pressure. Based on the monitoring and numerical simulation, it can be obtained that the settlement difference is comparatively small under 12m mixing pile treatment and the lower soft soil has obvious creep law, which provides a specific case for the usage state of widening road and creep law of soft soil.
Comparison of functions between CYP24A1and Vitamin D3 through Microarray and pathway analysis
Authors: Peng Juan
Published: March 2023

CYP24A1 is a rate-limiting enzyme in the metabolic process of vitamin D, which hydroxylate 25 (OH) D3,1,25(OH)2D3 into 24,25(OH)2D3 and 1α,24,25(OH) 3D3 respectively. After microarray analysis of gene set GSE12449, we found CYP24A1 participate in three important pathways, Focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interaction and antigen process. Vitamin D3 make a significance in several gene ontology process, such as basement membrane, response to wounding, positive regulation of gene expression, iron ion binding, integrin binding and so on. In comparison, CYP24A1 also make a role in several process, such as regulation of apoptotic process, transmembrane transport,fructose metabolic process and lipid transport,defense response to virus function and so on. These results reveal the functional commons and differences between CYP24A1 and Vitamin D3, which may indicate the next step study directions between these two genes.

Research on Machine Learning and Intelligent Decision Support System Based on Risk Prediction
Authors: Qin Haoshu
Published: March 2023

Decision Support System (DSS) is a new technology developed in recent years. Intelligent Decision Support System (IDSS) is the product of the combination of management decision science, operational research, computer science and artificial intelligence. For decision-makers, it takes a long time to accumulate experience to reach a rich enough level of decision-making. On the other hand, the decision-making process is also influenced to a great extent by the subjective consciousness of the decision-maker and the interference of external factors, which makes it easy to make analysis with large deviation, and then affects the accuracy of decision-making. With its powerful ability to learn data automatically, extract complex patterns and make intelligent decisions, machine learning method has attracted more and more attention in biomedical and financial research fields, providing a new way to effectively solve decision support problems in these fields. Based on risk prediction, this paper analyzes the application of machine learning method in intelligent decision support system.
The new generation of the FASBs Conceptual Framework
Authors: Nowak Wojciech Andrzej
Published: March 2023

Purpose: The article presents and comments on the main structures, key approaches, and content of the new conceptual framework promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in December 2021.Methodology/approach: Descriptive-analytical and content analysis.Findings: After presenting the modernization of FASBs conceptual approach towards financial reporting, the article presents the results of this modernization. It shows how the primary users have been redefined and it also describes the quality and constitutive elements of financial statements, how the components of these elements are measured, and the principles for shaping general purpose financial reporting. The article points out important differences between the FASB Framework 2021 and the IFRS/IASB Framework 2018 regarding the definition of a reporting entity, the types of financial statements, the number and type of elements of the financial statements, the definition of assets, and the quality of financial information in the notes to the financial statements.Practical implications: FASB modernized approach verifies and develops the conceptual frameworks as a financial reporting theory. It confirms their role as the basis for the standard-setting function, and interpreting standards and financial statements. In this way, the general level of distrust towards financial reporting relevancy and reliability may be reduced, increasing the opportunities to use the new FASB framework for a broadened and deepened interpretation of Polish financial reporting and auditing regulations and practice. As a result, it allows them to be better shaped and taught, and it provides a more informed direction for research.Originality/value: This paper is probably the first public presentation in Polish of the ideas of the new FASB conceptual framework for financial reporting.

Present study was undertaken to find out the effect of exogenous kisspeptin administration on Kiss1 and GPR54 mRNA expression, plasma endocrine profile and follicular development in pre-pubertal mithun heifers. Mithun heifers (20), age between 22â€“26 months, were selected and divided randomly into two groups (n=10). Before starting the experiment, all animals were examined by rectal palpation as well as through ultrasonography to ascertain the pre-pubertal status and blood samples were collected. All the animals in group A (treatment) were injected with kisspeptin (Metastin) @ 1.3 Î¼g/kg body wt. at every 3 days interval up to day 20 while in group B (control), normal saline was injected as placebo. Blood samples were collected on the day of injection and on the day of estrus in control as well as treatment group. Trans-rectal ultrasonography was also conducted at every 3 days interval till day 20 and at estrus to study the follicular development. Results revealed significant increase in Kiss1 and GPR54 mRNA expression following kisspeptin administration as compared to control. Level of FSH and Estradiol 17Î² was higher in treatment group while no difference was reported in plasma progesterone in control and treatment group. Increased numbers of medium and large follicle were recorded in treatment group while control group showed only small and medium follicles. Early onset of estrus was reported in treatment group than in control. It may be concluded that exogenous administration of kisspeptin increased expression of Kiss1 and GPR54 mRNA; peripheral FSH and estradiol concentration, increased follicular growth and early onset of estrus in treated heifers than in control.

Water governance as an instrument of democratization: reflections on the shared management of water resources in Brazil
Authors: Matos Fernanda , Dias Reinaldo
Published: March 2023

Recent changes in society continue to call into question the ability of core states to manage increasingly complex development issues on their own. Water governance remains a critical issue, as it involves determining the roles and responsibilities of different interests – public, civil, and private – in the management and development of water resources, analyzing the balance of power and actions at different levels of authority. Water governance must be readapted and translated specifically into political systems, laws, regulations, institutions, financial mechanisms, civil society development, and consumer rights. It must go beyond the traditional public sector and market-oriented sectors of governance, seeking coordinated schemes in which new, more dynamic relationships emerge between different participants and stakeholders (Sandoval, 2007).

Exploring Environmental Kuznets Curve and Pollution Haven Hypothesis in Bangladesh: The Impact of Foreign Direct Investment
Authors: Raihan Asif
Published: March 2023

Bangladesh receives the second-most foreign direct investment in South Asia. Over the past 30 years, Bangladesh's economy has expanded tremendously because of increased investment from several foreign countries. Although it can be beneficial in certain ways including the generation of new jobs, the improvement of infrastructure, and the equalization of economic rewards across the population; foreign direct investment has unintended consequences, such as ecological damage. In light of this, it is worth exploring the effects of foreign direct investment on sustainable development in Bangladesh. Using the most up-to-date annual data between 1990 and 2019, this study investigated the evidence of the Environmental Kuznets Curve and the Pollution Haven Hypothesis in Bangladesh. To assess the effects of economic growth, foreign direct investment, energy use, and trade on carbon dioxide emissions, this research employed the autoregressive distributed lag method. The empirical results indicated that the country has an inverted U-shaped Environmental Kuznets Curve and the adverse impact of foreign direct investment on the environment confirmed the validity of the Pollution Haven Hypothesis in Bangladesh. The results paint a bleak picture, sounding an alarm for policymakers to pay closer attention to the ways in which development leads to increased carbon emissions and how multinational companies operating within the country worsen the situation. That's why it's important to subject foreign investors to stringent environmental regulations. In addition, the nation's economic expansion should be guided by sustainable development goals.

Comunicação, contextos organizacionais e regionalidades:
Authors: Mourão Isaura , Mafra Rennan
Published: March 2023

Este artigo propõe um exercício de reflexão acerca das noções de globalização/mundialização e sua interface com os processos comunicativos, sobretudo em contextos organizacionais. De modo mais específico, parte de enfrentamentos decorrentes da pandemia da Covid-19 que fizeram aflorar diferenças de condições sócio-econômico-políticas-culturais de cada lugar, marcadas e evidenciadas pela noção de regionalidades. A pandemia foi mundial, afetando todos os territórios do globo, mas não de maneira homogênea. Nesse sentido, a compreensão da regionalidade como complexo de relações que ganham características distintas e marcam os processos comunicativos confere um olhar que nos conduz a pensá-la como categoria analítica para a comunicação organizacional, capaz de oferecer leituras possíveis aos modos como interações e sentidos em disputa são conformados em diversos contextos.

WSI-Mindestlohnbericht 2023 : Kaufkraftsicherung als zentrale Aufgabe in Zeiten hoher Inflation
Authors: LÜBKER MALTE , SCHULTEN THORSTEN
Published: March 2023

Der WSI-Mindestlohnbericht enthält neue Daten über Mindestlöhne aus insgesamt 38 Ländern in Europa und darüber hinaus. Die aktuelle Entwicklung der Mindestlöhne steht ganz im Zeichen der enorm hohen Inflationsraten. Während in der Hälfte der 22 EU-Staaten, die gesetzliche Mindestlöhne haben, die realen Mindestlöhne gesichert oder sogar erhöht werden konnten, reichten die Mindestlohnerhöhungen in den restlichen EU-Staaten nicht aus, um teilweise erhebliche Reallohnverluste zu vermeiden. Vor diesem Hintergrund sieht die im Oktober 2022 verabschiedete Europäische Mindestlohnrichtlinie die Kaufkraft als ein wesentliches Kriterium an, das bei der Festsetzung eines als angemessen geltenden Mindestlohns zu berücksichtigen ist. In einigen europäischen Ländern wie z. B. Belgien oder Frankreich ist die Reallohnsicherung der Mindestlöhne schon heute gesetzlich verankert und wird durch entsprechende Indexierungsklauseln gewährleistet. In Deutschland hat die Erhöhung des Mindestlohns auf 12 € den Beschäftigten zunächst einmal ein kräftiges Reallohnplus beschert. Für zukünftige Anpassungen steht jedoch auch hier die Reallohnsicherung auf der Tagesordnung.

Burnout contributes to the emergence of numerous negative organisational phenomena. Nurses are exposed to high stress working conditions every day, making it important to study burnout among nurses in health care systems. The aim of the paper is to investigate the impact of ethical climate and the LMX relationship on burnout among nurses, as well as to examine the effects of the three moderators (gender, self-awareness and social skills among nurses) on the observed relationships. The sample consists of 326 nurses from 23 hospitals in Serbia. Standardised questionnaires were used, while correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were employed for statistical processing. The dimensions of the ethical climate and LMX relationship have statistically significant impacts and predictive effects on the burnout dimensions. Raising the level of the ethical climate and LMX relationship positively affects burnout: it reduces emotional exhaustion and depersonalisation, and increases personal accomplishment and involvement. An adverse ethical climate and unfavourable LMX relationships among men cause greater emotional exhaustion. For nurses with high self-awareness and high social skills, a favourable ethical climate and positive LMX relationships reduce emotional exhaustion, and increase personal accomplishment. For nurses with low self-awareness and low social skills, a favourable ethical climate and positive LMX relationships reduce depersonalisation. Recommendations are made for improving the ethical climate and LMX relationships in hospitals in Serbia.
The Drivers of Market Orientation and its Impact on Export Performance of Serbian Firms

In the field of international business, examination of the link between a market orientation (MO) and an export performance (EP) is quite popular. However, mechanisms through which MO affects EP have not been sufficiently investigated. The aim of this paper was to examine direct and indirect impact of MO on EP, as well as drivers of MO. In this paper, MO is defined as organisational culture. Based on the structure-conduct-performance paradigm and Resource-Based View, a model was formulated and tested on a sample of 121 large and medium-sized exporters operating in the Republic of Serbia. The method applied was partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Obtained results indicate that there is a direct and positive effect of relational resources and competitive intensity on MO. It was also found that MO affects EP directly, and that differentiation strategy partially mediates the relationship between MO and EP.
Die Vier Weisen im Garten der Philosophie
Authors: Schulzer Rainer
Published: March 2023

Only rarely do foreign visitors find their way to the Temple Garden of Philosophy, located away from the busy shopping streets and off the beaten tourist track in the Japanese capital. In this book, the World Sages, to whose memory the shrine in the centre of the Garden is dedicated, are presented as existential thinkers in four essays by Japanese and German scholars. In a detailed introduction, the author and translator of the volume sketches an intellectual framework that places the Four Sages within the parameters of global humanism. Perusing the recent contributions by Jan Assmann and Jürgen Habermas, the epilogue offers a discussion of the controversial thesis of a Eurasian Axial Age around 600 BCE.

Die Kunst- und Wunderkammer im Museum
Authors: Wagner Sarah
Published: March 2023

Bereits ab dem frühen 19. Jahrhundert werden einstige Kunst- und Wunderkammern in Museen integriert, z.B. im Unteren Belvedere in Wien, im Historischen Museum in Dresden oder im Neuen Museum in Berlin. Um das Jahr 2000 erlebt die Kunst- und Wunderkammer dann eine regelrechte Renaissance als Ausstellungsformat, etwa im Kunsthistorischen Museum Wien und im Herzog Anton Ulrich-Museum Braunschweig. Einst bürgerliche, höfische oder kirchliche Sammlungen werden in Rückberufung auf ihren historischen Kontext reinszeniert. Was motiviert so viele Institutionen, eine Kunst- und Wunderkammer einzurichten? Welche Strategien sind dabei zu beobachten? Und welche Aspekte des frühneuzeitlichen Sammlungsmodells lassen sich überhaupt in den musealen Rahmen übertragen? Sarah Wagner betrachtet zahlreiche Dauerausstellungen in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz. Auf der Suche nach den Ursprüngen des Phänomens entdeckt sie vergessene Ausstellungen wieder, die davon zeugen, dass Kunst- und Wunderkammern keineswegs überall im Zuge der Aufklärung aufgelöst und zerstreut wurden.
Von der Konsumentensouveränität zum nachhaltigen Konsum
Authors: Schappert Monika Elisabeth Luise
Published: March 2023

Can sustainable consumption be achieved through consumers' sovereignty? Consumers' sovereignty contributes significantly to material prosperity. At the same time, today's consumption patterns and lifestyles are increasingly straining ecological systems beyond what is sustainable in the long term. Sustainable consumption means meeting one's own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. A new energy policy and technical innovation are currently increasing the scope for action and the responsibility of consumers in terms of sustainable consumption. When it comes to energy consumption, a lack of standards and incomplete life cycle assessments are currently still hindering the eco-efficient use of smart grids.
Microbes as Artists of Life
Authors: Sharma Gayatri
Published: March 2023

Scientists have been knocking the wood to ascertain the symbiotic relationships of tiny living creatures, that is, microorganisms with other beings such as plants, animals, insects, and humans. The concept of “symbiosis” got its existence in 1879, which means “living together.” Microorganisms show a great deal of diverse interactions such as commensalism (moochers), mutualism (both benefitted), and parasitism (one benefitted and other unharmed) with other living beings and mutualism being the most common of all, thus forming a range of antagonistic to cooperative symbiotic relationships. These tiny creatures interact with plants by forming lichens (fungi and algae), mycorrhizae (plants and roots of higher plants), root noodles (Rhizobium) and acting as keyworkers in plant’s rhizosphere promoting growth and development. Microbial community also extends itself to kingdom Animalia establishing relationships with phylum Mammalia including humans, animals, and the most abundant species of phylum Arthropoda, that is, insects such as termites, which have colonization of bacteria in gut to digest wood cellulose. Scientists have discovered that most studied organisms—mussels found in deep-sea hydrothermal vents too live in a mutualistic association whereby bacteria get protection and mussels get nutrition as bacteria use chemicals from hydrothermal fluid producing organic compounds.
Periodic Navier Stokes Equations for a 3D Incompressible Fluid with Liutex Vortex Identification Method

Published: March 2023

The Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations (NSEs) are on the list of Millennium Problems, to prove their existence and uniqueness of solutions. The NSEs can be formulated in a periodic 3D domain, where they are termed the Periodic Navier Stokes (PNS) Equations, and can be treated on a subspace spanning a 3-dimensional torus, or T3. Treating the PNS Equations in T3-space, this article demonstrates that a decaying of turbulence occurs in the 3D case for the z component of velocity when non-smooth initial conditions are considered for x, y components of velocity and that ‘vorticity’ sheets in the small scales of 3D turbulence dominate the flow to the extent that non-smooth temporal solutions exist for the z velocity for smooth initial data for the x, y components of velocity. Unlike the Navier-Stokes equations, which have no anti-symmetric vorticity tensor, there are new governing equations which have vorticity tensor and can be decomposed into a rotational part(Liutex), antisymmetric shear and compression and stretching. It is shown that under these recent findings, that there is a strong correlation between vorticity and vorticies for (PNS).
