Published: August 2024

Biomethane and hydrogen are promising elements in the transition towards sustainable energy, due to their capacity to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. In Ghana, efforts to promote sustainable waste valorization for energy production are underway; however, organic waste conversion into biomethane and hydrogen still needs to be expanded. This study aims to evaluate the potential of producing biomethane and hydrogen from the municipal solid waste in Cape Coast, and their injection into the national gas grid. The upgrading biogas obtained from anaerobic digestion of food/organic wastes was used to generate biomethane. The modified Buswell Equation and data from literature were used to estimate the amount of biomethane and hydrogen. The environmental impact was assessed using the CO2 equivalent emissions. The findings reveal that Cape Coast generated approximately 6,400 tons of food waste in 2021, with a projection to 11,000 tons by 2050. Biomethane and hydrogen quantities was estimated at 3,700,000 m³ and 784,000 kg in 2021, respectively. Their projection reaches to 6,600,000 m³ and 1,400,000 kg by 2050. Converting waste into biomethane and hydrogen is an eco-friendly method of their management and use for renewable energy in Ghana. Strategies can be integrated into Ghana national energy policies to encourage waste-to-energy projects.

Published: August 2024

In recent decades, English has become a global lingua franca and has been adopted as the language of education in a number of countries all over the world. Rwanda, a country in Eastern Africa, followed this trend and declared English as the medium of instruction from primary school onwards in 2008. Despite this language-in-education policy, most university graduates in Rwanda have for years displayed limited proficiency in English, specifically low writing skills, which may have been enhanced by the country's linguistic landscape with a long French tradition and the use of Kinyarwanda by the majority of Rwandan citizens. This lack of students’ communication skills in English, the target language, has for long been a real concern for the researchers who are lecturers of English at the University of Rwanda. Therefore, they decided to embark on the current study to investigate whether morning pages would contribute to improving their students' English writing skills. The research was carried out at the College of Business and Economics, Gikondo Campus. It involved third-year students enrolled in the academic year 2023-2024, and it made use of quantitative and qualitative research paradigms. Purposive sampling allowed the researchers to select a sample size of 87 students out of 869. The data were collected through observations, a questionnaire, interviews, and document analysis for the sake of triangulation. For data analysis, quantitative data were processed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), whereas qualitative data were grouped into typologies and analysed inductively. The findings revealed that the use of morning pages motivated the students and helped to develop their English writing skills. Hence, the researchers recommended that morning pages be given due consideration and, thus, be introduced in students’ lives at all levels of education in Rwanda.

Published: August 2024

Abstract. In this work, we investigated the influence of different types of soot aerosol on the counting efficiency (CE) of instruments employed for the periodic technical inspection (PTI) of diesel vehicles. Such instruments report particle number (PN) concentration. Combustion aerosols were generated by a prototype bigCAST, a miniCAST 5201 BC, a miniCAST 6204 C, and a miniature inverted soot generator (MISG). For comparison purposes, diesel soot was generated by a Euro 5b diesel test vehicle with by-passed diesel particulate filter (DPF). The size-dependent counting efficiency profile of six PN–PTI instruments was determined with each one of the aforementioned test aerosols. The results showed that the type of soot aerosol affected the response of the PN–PTI sensors in an individualised manner. Consequently, it was difficult to identify trends and draw conclusive results about which laboratory-generated soot is the best proxy for diesel soot. Deviations in the counting efficiency remained typically within 0.25 units when using laboratory-generated soot compared to Euro 5b diesel soot of similar mobility diameter (∼ 50–60 nm). Soot with a mobility diameter of ∼ 100 nm generated by the MISG, the lowest size we could achieve, resulted in most cases in similar counting efficiencies as those generated by the different CAST generators at the same particle size, showing that MISG may be a satisfactory – and affordable – option for PN–PTI verification; however, further optimisation will be needed for low-cost soot generators to comply with European PN–PTI verification requirements.

Published: August 2024

Abstract. Due to its location between Mesopotamia and the Eurasian steppes, the southern Caucasus occupies a distinctive place in Old World archeology. While several local areas in the South Caucasus have shown a complex social organization with fortified structures during the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age (LBA–EIA), the Shiraki Plain (southeast Georgia), despite its immense potential, has yet to be examined in a regional context. The presented research aims to conduct an initial multi-stage landscape archeological survey over the Shiraki Plain in order to reveal the LBA–EIA fortified settlements of previously identified Didnauri and Nazarlebi types. The authors use remote sensing, photogrammetry, and terrestrial survey methods to investigate selected areas. The results demonstrate the density and complexity of the massive, fortified structures spread over both the plain and neighboring ridges. Their spatial distribution suggests the idea of a well-organized defensive system adapted to the landscape, which in turn is discussed in a broader regional context.
Contrasting patterns of change in snowline altitude across five Himalayan catchments

Published: August 2024

Abstract. Seasonal snowmelt in the high mountains of Asia is an important source of river discharge. Therefore, observation of the spatiotemporal variations in snow cover at catchment scales using high-resolution satellites is essential for understanding changes in water supply from headwater catchments. In this study, we propose an algorithm to automatically detect the snowline altitude (SLA) using the Google Earth Engine platform with available high-resolution multispectral satellite archives that can be readily applied globally. Here, we applied and evaluated the tool to five glacierised watersheds across the Himalayas to quantify the changes in seasonal and annual snow cover over the past 21 years and to analyse the meteorological factors influencing the SLA. Our findings revealed substantial variations in the SLA among sites in terms of seasonal patterns, decadal trends, and meteorological controls. SLA has been increasing in the Hidden Valley (+11.9 m yr-1), Langtang Valley (+14.4 m yr-1), and Rolwaling Valley (+8.2 m yr-1) in the Nepalese Himalaya, but decreasing in the Satopanth (−15.6 m yr-1) in the western Indian Himalaya, while we found no significant trend in Parlung Valley in southeast Tibet. We suggest that the increase in SLA was caused by warmer temperatures during the monsoon season in Nepal, whereas the decrease in SLA were driven by increased winter snowfall and reduced monsoon snowmelt in India. By integrating the outcomes of these analyses, we found that long-term changes in SLA are primarily driven by shifts in the local climate, whereas seasonal variability may be influenced by geographic features in conjunction with climate.
High-resolution operational soil moisture monitoring for forests in central Germany

Published: August 2024

Abstract. The forests of central Germany (Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, and Thuringia) are vital components of the local ecosystems, the economy, and recreation. However, in recent years, these forests have faced significant challenges due to prolonged climate-change-induced droughts, causing water shortages, tree stress, and pest outbreaks. One of the key components of the forests' vitality and productivity is the availability of soil moisture. Given the anticipated increase in the frequency and severity of drought events, there is a growing demand for accurate and real-time soil moisture information. This underscores the need for development of an appropriate monitoring tool to make forest management strategies more effective. The article introduces an operational high-resolution soil moisture monitoring framework for the forests in central Germany. The key components of this system include the advanced LWF-BROOK90 1D water balance model, a large database of the National Federal Forest Inventory, high-resolution forest soil maps, real-time climate data from the German Meteorological Service, and a web information platform for the presentation of daily updated results. This system informs the public and empowers forest managers and other decision-makers to take targeted, local measures for sustainable forest management, aiding in both drought mitigation and long-term forest health in the face of climate change. The validation of the system using soil moisture measurements from 51 stations with various sensor depths (up to 100 cm) showed an overall good agreement (0.76 median Pearson correlation), which was found to be higher for deciduous rather than coniferous forests. Finally, the framework is discussed against the background of the main limitations of existing monitoring systems and how operational soil moisture measurements contribute to better interpretation of simulations.

Published: August 2024

Sirosis hati merupakan konsekuensi serius dari hepatitis kronis yang dapat mengakibatkan komplikasi fatal. Deteksi dini sirosis hati sangat penting untuk meningkatkan prognosis dan mengurangi risiko komplikasi. Namun, gejalanya seringkali tidak spesifik, menyulitkan diagnosis pada tahap awal. Penelitian ini menggunakan dataset dari Mayo Clinic untuk menganalisis sirosis hati dengan tiga model machine learning: K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naive Bayes, dan Support Vector Machine (SVM). Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa model KNN memiliki akurasi tertinggi (92.04%), menunjukkan kemampuan yang efektif dalam mengklasifikasikan sirosis hati. Berdasarkan confusion matrix, KNN mampu mengklasifikasikan dengan tepat pasien yang menderita sirosis hati, dengan sedikit kesalahan dalam mengidentifikasi kelas yang berbeda. Sebagai perbandingan, model Naive Bayes menunjukkan performa yang lebih rendah dengan akurasi 52.14%, sementara SVM memiliki akurasi sebesar 81.88%. Dalam konteks deteksi dini sirosis hati, model KNN menonjol sebagai pilihan terbaik karena akurasinya yang tinggi dan kemampuannya dalam mengklasifikasikan pasien dengan benar. Langkah-langkah preprocessing data, seperti normalisasi dan one-hot encoding, juga berperan penting dalam meningkatkan kinerja model. Penemuan ini memberikan landasan penting untuk pengembangan sistem deteksi dini yang lebih baik untuk sirosis hati, sehingga memungkinkan intervensi medis yang tepat waktu dan peningkatan prognosis pasien.
Für eine Friedens- und Versöhnungskultur.Sozial-politische Analyse, ethischer Ansatz und kirchlicher Beitrag zur Förderung einer Friedens- und Versöhnungskultur in Burundi

Published: August 2024

Burundi, ein kleines Land in Ostafrika, wird seit Jahrzehnten von Bürgerkriegen heimgesucht. Basierend auf qualitativer Forschung analysiert die vorliegende Studie die burundische Konfliktsituation und schlägt mögliche Lösungen vor. Die Studie verdeutlicht, dass die ethnische Frage zwar eine wichtige Rolle spielt, aber nicht – obgleich es viele Autoren bisher geschrieben haben – die Ursache des Konflikts ist. Dies zeigt auch die Analyse der politischen Krise von 2015, die laut den Berichten der Untersuchungskommission der Vereinten Nationen von schweren Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit gekennzeichnet ist. Ethnizität wird in dieser neuerlichen Situation manipulativ für politische Machtinteressen genutzt. Wege zur Förderung einer neuen Friedens- und Versöhnungskultur werden vorgeschlagen. Déogratias Maruhukiro, Isch, ist katholischer Theologe und gehört der Gemeinschaft der Schönstatt-Patres an. Die vorliegende Studie ist seine Dissertation für den Ph.D. an der Theologischen Fakultät der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg.

CAUSAL LANGUAGE AND STATISTICS INSTRUCTION: EVIDENCE FROM A RANDOMIZED EXPERIMENT
Authors: HILL JENNIFER , PERRETT GEORGE , HANCOCK STACEY , WIN LE , BERGNER YOAV
Published: August 2024

Most current statistics courses include some instruction relevant to causal inference. Whether this instruction is incorporated as material on randomized experiments or as an interpretation of associations measured by correlation or regression coefficients, the way in which this material is presented may have important implications for understanding causal inference fundamentals. Although the connection between study design and the ability to infer causality is often described well, the link between the language used to describe study results and causal attribution typically is not well defined. The current study investigates this relationship experimentally using a sample of students in a statistics course at a large western university in the United States. It also provides (non-experimental) evidence about the association between statistics instruction and the ability to understand appropriate causal attribution. The results from our experimental vignette study suggest that the wording of study findings impacts causal attribution by the reader, and, perhaps more surprisingly, that this variation in level of causal attribution across different wording conditions seems to pale in comparison to the variation across study contexts. More research, however, is needed to better understand how to tailor statistics instruction to make students sufficiently wary of unwarranted causal interpretation.
Norms of Fairness and Generosity Among People Experiencing Homelessness: A Dictator Game Field Experiment
Authors: Anderson Mary-Catherine , Hazel Ashley , Perkins Jessica , Almquist Zack
Published: August 2024

Society often ascribes negative stereotypes to people experiencing homelessness. However, people experiencing homelessness have been found to display highly nuanced social behaviors. We employ a field dictator game to examine prosocial behavior among 173 unhoused individuals in Nashville, TN. We test whether an unhoused population displays ingroup bias, wherein they are more generous toward other people experiencing homelessness (the hypothesized ingroup) than people not experiencing homelessness (the hypothesized out-group). Additionally, we explore relationships between sociodemographic and personal characteristics (social support, perceptions of deservedness/generosity) and dictator game behavior. We did not observe ingroup bias. However, on average, participants allocated 29% of their game endowment to recipients, consistent with cross-cultural dictator game studies. We found that the duration of homelessness, social support, and gender were associated with dictator game allocations. Additionally, people experiencing homelessness were more generous when they perceived other unhoused individuals would be more generous and deserving.

Основной причиной возникновения погрешности шарового гироскопа является наличие «полярного» возмущающего момента синхронного гистерезисного двигателя и несферичность ротора, на компенсацию которого уходит значительная часть мощности привода. Влияние люфта между шариками и элементами шарового подвеса на уход гироскопа рассмотрено в работе. Смещение центра масс ротора относительно статора происходит за счет гармонических сил, порождаемых магнитным полем статора гиродвигателя. Чтобы обеспечить заданную точность вращения ротора, для уменьшения упругих смещений, следовательно, и момента сил трения, для ликвидации зазоров между шариками и кольцами, для увеличения жесткостей, как по радиальному, так и по осевому направлениям, в подвижных узлах подшипники при сборке часто устанавливаются с предварительным натягом. При этом величина натяга не сохраняется в процессе хранения и эксплуатации по мере изнашивания тел и дорожек качения. Для этого применяют компенсирующие устройства, поддерживающие постоянным предварительный натяг в процессе эксплуатации, и предусматривают возможность периодического регулирования его в процессе работы механизма. Рассмотрены уравнения движения ротора гироскопа в случаях, когда каждый шарик имеет предварительный большой натяг и когда натяг шариков не произведен. Рассмотрены прецессионные уравнения движения кинетического момента ротора при центрировании сепараторов по ротору гироскопа и  при центрировании сепараторов по статору гироскопа. Получена формула определяющая угловую скорость ухода гироскопа. Проведен количественный анализ ухода шарового гироскопа при наличии возмущающих моментов гистерезисного гироскопического электродвигателя.

В данной работе представлена сложная ​​модель, описывающая работу систем защиты информации (СЗИ) в автоматизированных системах (АС) противодействия несанкционированному доступу в инфобизнесе. Это достигается с помощью методов имитационного моделирования. Вышеупомянутая модель была разработана в программной среде CPN Tools для облегчения последующего анализа. Чтобы оптимизировать удобство использования, повысить наглядность и обеспечить логическую последовательность, мы использовали уникальные функции CPN Tools для разложения модели на отдельные подсистемы. Использование этой модели необходимо для проведения вычислительных экспериментов, особенно для исследования реальных потребительских характеристик защищенных от несанкционированного доступа систем кондиционирования. Кроме того, это важно для создания пакетов программного обеспечения, которые позволяют анализировать и количественно оценивать производительность этих систем. Разработан функциональный прототип системы защиты, позволяющий наглядно продемонстрировать ее работу и предугадать действия потенциального злоумышленника. Модель учитывает дискретные, динамические и стохастические характеристики системы, обусловленные наличием сетевой инфраструктуры рабочих станций. Для точного отображения этих характеристик во времени модель классифицирована как дискретно-событийная. Вероятность перехода системы из одного состояния в другое зависит от времени, проведенного в предыдущем. Результаты, полученные в результате имитационного моделирования работы системы обнаружения вторжений, могут быть выражены через различные характеристики состояния. Эти характеристики дают представление об общей производительности системы и ее отдельных подсистем. Разработанная модель может быть использован при проектировании, эксплуатации, сертификации и периодической поверке систем информационной безопасности. Кроме того, его можно использовать для аутентификации ИТ-объектов и оценки программного обеспечения информационной безопасности, используемого этими объектами. Язык программирования Meta, используемый CPN Tools, позволяет управлять вероятностным перемещением маркера от его начального состояния через промежуточные состояния к конечному состоянию, включая временные задержки и другие функции.

Published: August 2024

The use of e-cigarettes as a topic in health communication creates significant debate and challenges in crafting prevention strategies and public health interventions. E-cigarettes, which are considered a safer alternative to conventional cigarettes, have caused controversy over their health benefits and risks. This article outlines the impact of e-cigarette use in health communication on individual perceptions, focusing on psychological aspects. His research methods can involve a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches. The results of this study explain that the impact of individual perceptions of e-cigarettes identifies health behaviors that can be positive (avoiding or quitting) or negative (using or increasing consumption). Emphasis on developing communication approaches that consider Islamic values includes steps such as developing health messages that are consistent with Islamic thought, engaging religious leaders, paying attention to cultural context, and crafting messages that can be internalized by Muslim societies. Therefore, this analysis provides valuable insights for health practitioners and educators to design effective and acceptable health communication strategies in Muslim societies.
Prueba Estandarizada de los Golpes de Fondo de Derecha y de Revés en el Tenis Mediante una Perspectiva Aérea
Authors: Kibele Armin , Classen Claudia , Triebfuerst Kathrin
Published: August 2024

Existe evidencia en la literatura del tenis de que el impulso angular sobre el eje longitudinal del cuerpo causa un importante impacto sobre la velocidad de la pelota en el golpe de fondo. Sin embargo, el impulso angular sobre este eje corporal sólo ha sido estimado con el análisis de video 3D – que lleva mucho tiempo, mediante un examen del desplazamiento angular máximo del eje del hombro hacia la base. En contraste, se presenta un método simple y de bajo costo para examinar esta amplitud angular sobre el eje del cuerpo longitudinal desde una perspectiva a vuelo de pájaro. Seis niñas y doce niños de entre10 y 12 años, con diferentes niveles de tenis participaron en el estudio. El golpe de derecha y el golpe de revés a dos manos de fondo fueron registrados en video para el análisis cinético. Mientras las rotaciones máximas del tronco alcanzaron ángulos promedio de 105 grados en los golpes de derecha y 120 grados en los golpes de revés, se encontraron correlaciones significativas entre la velocidad de la pelota y la rotación del tronco (golpe de derecha: r = 0,65 y golpe de revés: r = 0,76). Este resultado demuestra que la rotación del tronco es claramente más importante para el golpe de revés que para el golpe de derecha. Otros desplazamientos angulares (torsión del tronco y orientación de la raqueta) no demostraron ser tan importantes para la velocidad del golpe.

Authors: Sama Kyra
Published: August 2024

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a pressing issue with significant implications for public health and industries such as agriculture. In a country like India, where antibiotic use is among the highest in the world and instances of AMR are correspondingly high, there is a critical need for intervention and policy amendment to contain and appropriately address the problem. This is especially urgent given India’s significant role in global supply chains and the potential for infectious diseases to spread globally through trade. This paper thoroughly explores the current situation and challenges related to AMR in India. It evaluates the existing policy measures adopted in the country and provides policy recommendations within a comprehensive framework that includes education, restraint, and research.

Published: August 2024

Nephrotic syndrome is a condition that causes the kidneys to leak large amounts of protein into the urine. This can lead to a range of problems, including swelling of body tissues and a greater chance of catching infections. Although nephrotic syndrome can affect people of any age, it's usually first diagnosed in children aged between 1 and 6 years old. It tends to be more common in those with an Asian background although the reason is unknown.

Understanding Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Knowledge in Physiotherapy Undergraduates - A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Patel Kunjal , Pathak Nisha
Published: August 2024

Background: CPR is a lifesaving technique. It aims to keep blood and oxygen flowing through the body when a person’s heart and breathing have stopped. When the heart stops breathing, Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is used to save the patient’s life. After a cardiac arrest, immediate CPR can double or triple the possibilities of survival. C-A-B [ chest compression, airway and breathing], should be commenced when a victim/patient is unresponsive and not breathing normally. Early compressions can improve outcomes by keeping the brain and heart perfused with the oxygenated blood in the circulatory system prior to collapse. When patients receive timely cardiopulmonary resuscitation from qualified medical personnel, cardiac arrests and the deaths that accompany them are decreased. When using exercise as a therapeutic approach, physiotherapists must be proficient in CPR not only to handle potential adverse cardiac events during exercise, but also because early defibrillation and widespread application of CPR can drastically lower the death rate from a heart attack. In this study, we evaluated physiotherapy students' understanding of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in Surat.
Aims: The study aimed to assess the knowledge regarding the Cardiopulmonary resuscitation in Physiotherapy undergraduates in Surat, Gujarat.
Objectives: The objective of this study is to assess knowledge of CPR by using online google form questionnaire.
Method: A cross-sectional study of physiotherapy students in Surat was conducted. An online survey was conducted with a self-administered questionnaire. The data was collected from 103 physiotherapy students in Surat aged 18-27 years. A CPR knowledge questionnaire was completed by the students and the result was analyzed with Microsoft Excel 2019.
Result: Results suggest that the students were a good understanding of the importance of CPR in clinical practice and stand average in knowing its indications and effectiveness. Whereas, 62% of them were completely aware of the universal compression ventilation ratio, and 45% were aware of the current order of CPR being compression, airway, and breathing.
Conclusion: In this study, it concludes that awareness of CPR is good among physiotherapy students in Surat.

Lumpy skin disease was first found in the Russian Federation in 2015. Since 2016, vaccination against lumpy skin disease has been mandatory for cattle of all age groups. In this regard, studying the effect of vaccination against lumpy skin disease on the reproductive ability of cows is relevant. One of the reasons for the decrease in the reproductive ability of cows is abortions at different stages of pregnancy. Statistical processing of abortions in Holstein cows for 2019-2022 was carried out. The first experimental group included animals, in which abortions were diagnosed in the period from the first to the sixth month after vaccination against lumpy skin disease; the second group – from the seventh to the twelfth month after vaccination. The total number of abortions during the reference period was 436. In the first experimental group, 232 abortions were diagnosed or 53.2% of all abortions, which was 6.4% more than in the second experimental group. A comparative assessment of the percentage of abortions at different stages of pregnancy indicated that in the first experimental group, abortions with a pregnancy period of less than 70 days accounted for 52.1%, which was 2.8% less than in the second experimental group, and abortions in late stages, correspondingly more by 2.8%. Thus, vaccination against lumpy skin disease may be one of the indirect causes of abortions in cows.
The dependence of the nutritional value of offal on the thermal state
Authors: Kalyuzhnaya T. V. , Orlova D. A.
Published: August 2024

Currently, by-products are used in the meat processing industry as raw materials for the production of various types of meat products, as well as sold in chilled and frozen form as a food product. When frozen, ice crystals form inside the cells, damaging the structural units of the cells, as a result of which, during defrosting, the turgor of the tissues is disrupted and the consistency of the offal changes. Such changes contribute to a decrease in the nutritional value of offal. In accordance with the current legislation of our country, raw meat subjected to defrosting should be sold as a product from frozen raw materials, and not as a chilled product. The aim of the work was to study the nutritional value of offal of slaughtered animals and poultry depending on the thermal condition. The study was carried out in the period 2023-2024 in the conditions of the educational and research center for the examination of food and animal feed of the St. Petersburg State University of Veterinary Medicine. The objects of the study were 112 samples of offal obtained from slaughtered animals and poultry. The quantitative content of protein, fat and moisture in the offal samples was determined using the infrared analyzer InfraLUM FT-12. As a result of the conducted studies, it was found that the greatest loss of nutritional value occurred in the offal of repeatedly defrosted compared with defrosted once. The loss of protein, fat and moisture in the offal of slaughtered animals and poultry did not occur in the same way and depended on the thermal condition and type of offal.
