Published: February 2025

In this research, we study the dynamical behaviors of a mass-spring system on a massless moving cart. The Lagrangian of the system was first constructed, which resulted in obtaining the Euler-Lagrange equation (ELE) of the system. As a next step, we used the Laplace transformation technique to attain an exact solution for ELE of the system. Furthermore, numerical and simulation techniques were applied with the help of MATLAB software, where we solved ELE numerically for some specified initial conditions. Simulation results indicate that they are in good agreement with the exact analytical solution. Finally, some simulation results were presented in this research.

Resistencias al estigma territorial mediante la ocupación del espacio público. El caso de una batucada juvenil en legua emergencia
Authors: González Lucaz
Published: February 2025

Este artículo plantea que los jóvenes de Legua Emergencia, uno de los barrios más estigmatizados de Chile, confrontan la violencia y el estigma territorial mediante expresiones artísticas en el espacio público. Dichas manifestaciones buscan recrear un sentido de comunidad e identidad para confrontar los efectos sociales que el narcotráfico y los estigmas territoriales tienen en la vida de sus vecinos. A través del estudio etnográfico de una batucada, se argumenta que ese tipo de instancias, habitualmente invisibilizadas por enfoques sociológicos normativos basados en modelos deliberativos y racionales, constituyen formas de subjetivación y politización para los jóvenes a partir de experiencias afectivas que experimentan en el espacio público y que permiten disputar el sentido de las representaciones estigmatizantes y reivindicar la identidad de Legua Emergencia ante la comunidad política más amplia.

NAVIGATING SPANISH INSTRUCTION FOR HERITAGE LEARNERS IN MIXED CLASSES: EXPLORING LANGUAGE OPTIONS IN THE UNITED STATES
Authors:   University of Bucharest, Romania, Ciuciuc Victor-Emanuel , CILTAN Anda-Lucia
Published: February 2025

Abstract

In the United States, Spanish courses frequently include heritage learners – students who grow up speaking or hearing Spanish at home but may not fully develop proficiency. Teaching these students presents unique challenges, particularly regarding which linguistic variety to teach. Spanish encompasses many regional and social varieties, each with distinct vocabulary, grammar, and cultural associations, often shaped by communities’ historical and regional ties. This study reviews recent perspectives on teaching Spanish to heritage learners, balancing the use of ‘standard’ Spanish, as recognised by the Royal Spanish Academy, with approaches that integrate the diverse varieties learners may feel connected to. By comparing models that promote standardisation with those that embrace pluralism, this review aims to clarify how different methods impact heritage learners’ educational experience, cultural identity, and sense of belonging. The findings underscore that fostering linguistic competence for heritage learners involves not only language instruction but also a nuanced approach to identity, culture, and multilingualism.

Keywords: Heritage learners; Spanish varieties; International Spanish; Sociolinguistics; Applied linguistics.
THE RELATIONAL COMPONENT IN FACE-THREATENING ACTS: A CROSS-CULTURAL ANALYSIS
Authors:   Babeş-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania, Plăcintar Silvia Emilia
Published: February 2025

Abstract

This study starts from the classic face politeness model of Brown and Levinson (1987), with focus on face-threatening acts in isolation, and complements it with alternative paradigms that view face and facework from a relational and interactional perspective. Next, the paper introduces a framework of linguistic strategies for the expression of relational meaning to analyse the choices that language users make to convey an attitude of affective involvement in concrete instances of social interaction. These models are then applied in the interpretation of two corpora of business letters produced by Romanian and by Finnish students of business English in response to the same communicative situation that requires the formulation of these speech acts: giving bad news and providing reasons for it, making a request, and making a commitment. The analysis is guided by two questions: (1) What are the linguistic strategies engaged for the expression of affect? (2) Is culture a factor that influences how respondents view / use language? The findings of the comparative analysis point to marked differences in the primary function of language as employed by the two groups of respondents. While Finns view language predominantly for the transactional purpose with minimal expression of relational meaning, Romanians use it primarily as a means of building rapport by engaging frequently interpersonal markers of mitigation, politeness and solidarity.

Keywords: Face; Facework; Politeness; Relational meaning; Rapport management.
Finite-time thermodynamics: Realizability domains of thermodynamic systems and P. Salamon’s problem of effi ciency corresponding to maximum power output of the system
Authors: Tsirlin AM , Sukin IA
Published: February 2025

The paper analyses performance boundaries of systems converting the heat energy into the mechanical or separation work. Authors approach this problem from the view-point of the fi nite-time thermodynamics. Using thermodynamic balance equations, authors provide the algorithm for calculation of realizability domain for such systems. The paper shows that the performance of these systems is the upper bounded function of the heat fl ux, assuming that heat and mass transfer coeffi cients are given. Authors present suffi cient conditions under which the effi ciency (specifi c heat fl ux per unit of the useful fl ux) of the system does not depend on kinetic coeffi cients when operating in the maximum performance mode. The paper shows how to use these conditions to optimally choose the separation order for multicomponent distillation.

The toxic effect of chemicals from burning incense (Bakhour) on immune system
Authors: Rawan Alzahrani  , Nawal Helmi  , Israa Hakeem
Published: February 2025

Outdoor air pollution is a significant environmental health concern, linked to chronic respiratory diseases, heart conditions, and immunosuppression. One common indoor air pollutant is Bakhour, a fragrant incense burned in many homes. Despite its widespread use, little research has explored the potential health risks associated with Bakhour smoke exposure.

This study investigated the toxic effects of Bakhour smoke on the immune system. Three popular types of Bakhour (Oud, Mabthoth, and Mastic) were burned for four hours daily for two weeks, exposing 20 rats to the smoke. Weight, blood serum antibody levels (Immunoglobulin G and M), and spleen function were measured.

Results revealed that exposure to Bakhour smoke damaged spleen cells and led to immunosuppression, with the most severe effects observed in rats exposed to Mabthoth. Additionally, the study found a correlation between Bakhour smoke exposure and antibody formation.

To reduce exposure to Bakhour emissions, the study recommends minimizing burning time, increasing ventilation, and avoiding the use of charcoal. These findings highlight the importance of understanding the health risks associated with Bakhour smoke and taking steps to mitigate its impact on public health.

Published: February 2025

Acridians are among the most destructive insects to agriculture worldwide. In many tropical regions, only a few of the approximately 10,000 locust species represent a major threat to agriculture. In Senegal, crops and even trees are regularly attacked by crickets and grasshoppers. The exact number of locusts remains unclear but is generally estimated to be in the Sahel.

The aim of this study is to determine the locust fauna in Senegal focusing on six administrative regions covering a total area of 62,473 square kilometers. Over six years, from 2019 to 2024, we carried out net captures and light trapping during both the dry and rainy seasons. We carried out 1,800 captures per region, totaling 10,800 samples for the whole country. The captured individuals were identified using classification and identification keys.

The 270,000 individuals captured belong to 156 species, 14 subfamilies and 3 families. Some species are observed year-round, although females enter imaginal diapause, while others are found only during the rainy season and remain in embryonic diapause during the dry season. Our study showed that species previously described are no longer present in Senegal and have consequently decreased their range. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first of its type in Senegal. Previous surveys of locust fauna have been conducted in the broader context of the Sahel, rather than specifically in Senegal.
Nitrate-Induced DNA damage and carcinogenesis in children: Agrochemical contaminants as hidden catalysts for pediatric cancer proliferation
Authors: Alex Egbuchiem
Published: February 2025

Nitrate contamination, primarily derived from agrochemical runoff, fertilizers, and industrial waste, has emerged as a significant environmental and public health concern, particularly for children. As a prevalent groundwater pollutant, nitrates undergo biochemical conversion to nitrites and N-nitroso compounds (NOCs), which exhibit potent genotoxic and carcinogenic properties. Chronic exposure to these compounds has been linked to DNA damage, oxidative stress, and epigenetic alterations, raising concerns about their role in pediatric cancer proliferation. Epidemiological studies suggest a strong correlation between early-life nitrate exposure and increased risks of childhood leukemias, brain tumors, and gastrointestinal cancers. The mechanisms underlying nitrate-induced carcinogenesis include reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, DNA strand breaks, and disruption of cell cycle regulation, which promote malignant transformation. Additionally, nitrate ingestion through contaminated drinking water, food sources, and prenatal exposure amplifies cancer susceptibility, particularly in developing tissues with heightened vulnerability to mutagenic insults. This review evaluates the biological and toxicological pathways of nitrate-induced DNA damage, emphasizing the cumulative effects of agrochemical contaminants in pediatric cancer cases. A critical analysis of dose-response relationships, exposure thresholds, and synergistic effects with other environmental carcinogens highlights the urgent need for enhanced water quality regulations, biomonitoring strategies, and policy interventions to mitigate exposure risks. Given the increasing global incidence of childhood cancers, a multidisciplinary approach integrating toxicology, public health, and environmental science is essential for safeguarding children from the hidden oncogenic potential of nitrate contamination.

Published: February 2025

Bangladesh is one of the world’s leading garment producers, with the apparel sector contributing over 80% of the country’s total export earnings and around 11% to its GDP. Therefore, guaranteeing competitiveness in the apparel manufacturing sector depends critically on the efficiency of garment production lines. One of Bangladesh's biggest garment companies, XYZ Group, has a denim jacket assembly line whose production efficiency is under improvement. In this company, 27 workstations on the current production line, efficiency is just 51.05%, suggesting unequal allocation of the workload. The objective of this research is to increase the line efficiency through three-line balancing approaches: ranked positional weight (RPW), largest candidate rule (LCR), and computer method of sequencing operations for assembly line (COMSOAL) which were used to redistribute work while preserving precedent requirements in order to solve these inefficiencies. With a balancing delay of 8.4% and a smoothness index of 72.11, COMSOAL achieved the highest efficiency at 91.6%, reducing the number of workstations to 15. Meanwhile, LCR and RPW also improved efficiency to 81.1% and 72.5%, respectively. This study offers a structure for raising denim jacket manufacturing production efficiency and can be modified to various clothing production lines to best use available resources and operational effectiveness.
Exploring The Spatial Relationship Between Covid-19 and Poverty in Indonesia: A Moran’s I Approach
Authors: Koro Alex Bagas , Eliyanti Uzma , Lianawati
Published: February 2025

Background: COVID-19 has emerged as a pervasive infectious disease globally. Between 2020 and 2022, Indonesia experienced over 6.4 million COVID-19 cases and more than 157,000 confirmed deaths. Aside from vaccination efforts, the spread of COVID-19 is influenced by socioeconomic conditions, particularly poverty. Impoverished communities are especially vulnerable to COVID-19 due to limited access to healthcare services and high population density in living areas. This research aims to explore the spatial relationship between poverty and COVID-19 in Indonesia during 2021-2022.
Methods: This study employs an ecological design, focusing on the spatial relationship between COVID-19 incidence rates and poverty levels across Indonesian provinces. The analysis is conducted using Moran’s I, a spatial autocorrelation statistic, to determine the extent of clustering of COVID-19 cases about poverty.
Results: In 2021, East Nusa Tenggara had the lowest COVID-19 incidence rate at 517.56 per 100,000 population, while DKI Jakarta recorded the highest. During 2022, Bali remained the province with the highest incidence rate at 318.99 per 100,000 population, whereas Aceh had the lowest at only 1.43 per 100,000 population in 2022. The average poverty rate in Indonesia in 2021 was 10.76%, which slightly decreased to 10.24% in 2022. The difference between the minimum and maximum poverty percentages in both years was insignificant. Bivariate analysis shows that Moran's I value was -0.101 in 2021 (significant) and 0.042 in 2022 (not significant).
Conclusion: The spatial distribution of COVID-19 cases across Indonesian provinces in 2021 and 2022 exhibited significant variation influenced by multiple factors, such as vaccination programs and the percentage of poverty. However, this study has limitations due to secondary data that may not capture the real condition of COVID-19 and poverty dynamics.
Keywords: COVID-19, Moran’s I, Poverty, Spatial Analysis.

Published: February 2025

Going concern opinion as an audit opinion explains the auditor's doubts about the company's performance to operate in the future. Providing audit opinion and explaining the company's condition has a major impact on investment decisions so that auditor independence, integrity and objectivity are required according to professional ethics. This study was conducted with the aim of identifying the effect of prior opinion, opinion shopping, cash flow ratio, and company growth on going concern audit opinion acceptance in property sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The method used is logistic regression analysis supported by using IBM Statictical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) Version 26 software as a calculation tool. The test results concluded that the study found that prior opinion has a positive influence on going concern audit opinion acceptance while opinion shopping, cash flow ratio and company growth are unable to influence going concern audit opinion acceptance. Taking into account these limitations, it is recommended for future research that researchers consider using different independent variables, measuring variables with alternative ratios, and exploring different company sectors. Furthermore, to improve the accuracy of the research results, it is recommended to increase the number of data samples by adding research years.

This article describes mixed paradigms in the viewpoint (aspect) forms in Chalkan, a highly endangered northern Altay variety spoken in the Republic of Altay where the southern variety Altay kiži ‘Altay people’ serves as the basis for Standard Altay. It had affected all Chalkan language levels. Chalkan is switching to employing the auxiliary verb tur- ‘stand’, typical for Standard Altay, instead of t’at- ‘lie’ in the most recent intraterminal viewpoint forms going back to biverbal constructions. Both types are used in parallel at present, which leads to their merging and existence of allomorphs belonging to different harmonic types.
How Conservative Is the Morphology of Hachijō?
A Few Comparative Reflections on the rentaikei/shūshikei Distinction in Japonic Languages
Authors: Baudel Étienne
Published: February 2025

The opposition between ‘adnominal’ (rentaikei 連体形) and ‘final’ (shūshikei 終止形) forms of verbs and adjectives is one of the most-commented features of the Hachijō language, as it is considered both a remarkable archaism and a possible argument towards its classification within the Japonic language family. This article is dedicated to a description of this opposition in Hachijō, in comparison with other Japonic languages, and especially with Eastern Old Japanese.

Cluster analysis analyzes similar elements as different and independent cluster research objects (not interconnected). PT. Indah Logistik Cargo is a company that provides goods and motorcycle shipping services through three channels: land, sea, and air. This research has three objectives. The first is to categorize postage prices based on the type of goods and services provided so that customers can easily see the options available and understand the differences between each option. Thirdly, categorize prices so companies can offer special promotions or discounts for certain services. Fourth, cluster prices so companies can offer special promotions or discounts for certain services. Based on the analysis results, 3 cluster groups were formed: cheap, medium, and expensive. It can be concluded that the group with low postage prices (Rp 16,160 to Rp 622,160) consists of Medan, Bengkulu, Palembang, Padang, and Pekanbaru; the group with medium postage prices (Rp 40,400 to Rp 888,800) is only Banda Aceh; and the group with high postage prices (Rp 62,620 to Rp 1,555,400) consists of Tanjung Pinang and Pangkal Pinang.
Transitions in Education and Peacebuilding across Bosnia and Herzegovina

Published: February 2025

Since the end of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, scholars have extensively commented on the country’s political (dis)engagements with peacebuilding, including in the education sector. This article explores in detail how the country’s transitions have underpinned exclusive, multilayered and divergent trajectories in BiH’s collective experience. Particular attention is given to fundamental changes in education associated with political-ideological transitions, structural and policy shifts, and socio-cultural adaptations, which have all created new paths, challenges and opportunities for the development of peace pedagogies across the curriculum and in various spheres of formal education. The article highlights deeper aspects of education including methodological questions in pedagogy by examining the role of power, agency, social values, ideology, culture and authority and by reaffirming the notion that education is never politically neutral. The underlying argument of the article concerns the need to (re)humanize education in the face of resurgent violence, political fragmentation, emerging technocratic trends in pedagogy and dominant neoliberal and profit driven motives in Bosnian society.
Assessing Happiness in Central Asian Countries: Comparative Analysis and Key Determinants
Authors: Omarova Aishat , Kenzhakimova Gulnara
Published: February 2025

The measurement of happiness is a significant social and cultural phenomenon that encompasses various aspects of societal reality, each holding value for individuals and society as a whole. This study aims to analyze the happiness index and its social measurement mechanisms through a comparative analysis of Central Asian countries, specifically Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan. The theoretical foundations highlight the contributions of Dutch sociologist Ruut Veenhoven, who posits that the happiness index, along with well-being and healthcare levels, is a critical measure of societal comfort. Our research employs global happiness indicators such as the World Happiness Report, the World Values Survey, the Better Life Index, and the Quality-of-Life Index, which incorporate parameters like GDP per capita, social support, life expectancy, corruption perception, generosity, freedom of choice, and subjective well-being. Through a correlation analysis of happiness indices from 2017 to 2021, we examine the impact of macro-social conditions and national and cultural characteristics on happiness in Central Asian countries. Findings indicate that Kazakhstan, with its relatively high GDP per capita, faces challenges from higher perceived corruption and lower democracy scores. Conversely, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, despite lower GDP per capita, exhibit higher overall happiness due to stronger social cohesion and lower perceived corruption. The study also identifies shortcomings in current happiness measurement methodologies, such as the failure to capture issues reflected in specific sub-indices and the reliance on arithmetic averages that overlook disparities in benefit distribution. To improve their standings and ensure sustainable progress, Central Asian countries should enhance environmental policies and develop a knowledge-based economy. Future research should refine measurement methodologies to better capture the multidimensional nature of happiness, providing a fuller picture of well-being and informing more effective policy strategies.
Dagestani Complementary and Alternative Medicine Practitioners on the Move: From the Post-Soviet Era to the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Zakharova Evgenia , Firsov Evgeny
Published: February 2025

This paper employs a case study approach and contributes to the field of North Caucasian area studies by demonstrating how the professional activities of selected complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) specialists in Dagestan are shaped by gradual re-Islamization, post-Soviet demographic processes, and the Covid-19 pandemic. Engaging with the theoretical frameworks of medical pluralism and the social ecology of medicine, we pose the questions, what elements and processes in the changing social environment have been essential for the dynamics of CAM in Dagestan? How have changes in this environment influenced the strategies of CAM practitioners in designing their practices? We argue that the medical field in Dagestan outside of the state system is relatively weakly restricted by political, institutional, ideological, and cultural factors. This relative freedom allegedly makes CAM responsive more to large social-level environmental processes than to the mechanisms emphasized elsewhere in the literature about medical pluralism.
