Predicting the Number of Suicides in Japan Using Internet Search Queries: Vector Autoregression Time Series Model (Preprint)
Authors: Taira Kazuya , Hosokawa Rikuya , Itatani Tomoya , Fujita Sumio
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND

The number of suicides in Japan increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Predicting the number of suicides is important to take timely preventive measures.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to clarify whether the number of suicides can be predicted by suicide-related search queries used before searching for the keyword “suicide.”

METHODS

This study uses the infoveillance approach for suicide in Japan by search trends in search engines. The monthly number of suicides by gender, collected and published by the National Police Agency, was used as an outcome variable. The number of searches by gender with queries associated with “suicide” on “Yahoo! JAPAN Search” from January 2016 to December 2020 was used as a predictive variable. The following five phrases highly relevant to suicide were used as search terms before searching for the keyword “suicide” and extracted and used for analyses: “abuse”; “work, don’t want to go”; “company, want to quit”; “divorce”; and “no money.” The augmented Dickey-Fuller and Johansen tests were performed for the original series and to verify the existence of unit roots and cointegration for each variable, respectively. The vector autoregression model was applied to predict the number of suicides. The Breusch-Godfrey Lagrangian multiplier (BG-LM) test, autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity Lagrangian multiplier (ARCH-LM) test, and Jarque-Bera (JB) test were used to confirm model convergence. In addition, a Granger causality test was performed for each predictive variable.

RESULTS

In the original series, unit roots were found in the trend model, whereas in the first-order difference series, both men (minimum tau 3: −9.24; max tau 3: −5.38) and women (minimum tau 3: −9.24; max tau 3: −5.38) had no unit roots for all variables. In the Johansen test, a cointegration relationship was observed among several variables. The queries used in the converged models were “divorce” for men (BG-LM test: P=.55; ARCH-LM test: P=.63; JB test: P=.66) and “no money” for women (BG-LM test: P=.17; ARCH-LM test: P=.15; JB test: P=.10). In the Granger causality test for each variable, “divorce” was significant for both men (F104=3.29; P=.04) and women (F104=3.23; P=.04).

CONCLUSIONS

The number of suicides can be predicted by search queries related to the keyword “suicide.” Previous studies have reported that financial poverty and divorce are associated with suicide. The results of this study, in which search queries on “no money” and “divorce” predicted suicide, support the findings of previous studies. Further research on the economic poverty of women and those with complex problems is necessary.
Examining social media and hashtags as digital tools: A descriptive content analysis of #blackboyjoy and #theblackmancan on Instagram (Preprint)
Authors: Williams Kofoworola DA , Dougherty Sharyn A , Lattie Emily G , Guidry Jeanine PD , Carlyle Kellie E
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND

From a public health perspective, social media may be a viable avenue to promote mental health among Black men. As a digital tool, social media is widely accessible and increasingly used to challenge societal standards and misrepresentations of marginalized populations in the media. Social media users utilize hashtags and visual, text-based imagery to challenge misrepresentations, garner social support, and discuss a variety of health issues.

OBJECTIVE

This study presents a content analysis of hashtags about Black men and examines how visual and text-based social media messages can be used to present lived experiences of a marginalized population, as well as how the public engages with these posts.

METHODS

Posts containing #theblackmancan and #blackboyjoy hashtags were extracted from Instagram during Spring 2019. All posts were analyzed by two independent coders using a codebook. Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) and formative literature were used to guide analyses of how these posts related to attitudes, beliefs, and values associated with race, gender, and social support.

RESULTS

Of the 500 posts extracted, most were image-based (73.6%). 54.4% were posted by an individual and 27% by a community organization. 53.8% were posted by individuals from Black populations. 35.4% of posts contained images of only males. Posts depicted images of Black men as fathers (20%) and Black men being celebrated (20.2%) and expressing joy (43.4%). Posts (25.4%) also depicted Black men in relation to gender atypical behavior, such as caring for children. Variables related to education and restrictive affection showed up much less. Similarly, variables associated with SCT, such as self-efficacy (7.8%), collective efficacy (10%) and emotional support (10.2%) were rarely present in posts. Engagement via likes (Mdn = 1671, P<.001), comments (P<.001) and views (P<.001) for posts containing #theblackmancan were significantly higher compared to #blackboyjoy (Mdn = 140). Posts containing elements of celebrating Black men (P<.001) and gender atypical behavior (P<.001) had significantly higher engagement, as well. There were also significantly higher levels of engagement (P=.003) for posts containing informational support.

CONCLUSIONS

Hashtags #blackboyjoy and #theblackmancan promote positive user-generated visual and text-based content on Instagram and promote positive interactions among Black and diverse communities. Future research should examine the relevance of utilizing these, and other, hashtags in mental health promotion. Interventional efforts should investigate the potential for such imagery to serve as culturally relevant design elements for prevention efforts geared towards mental health promotion and prevention among minority men.

MEASURING EFFICIENCY CHANGE IN TIME APPLYING MALMQUIST PRODUCTIVITY INDEX: A CASE OF DISTRIBUTION CENTRES IN SERBIA
Authors: Andrejić Milan , Kilibarda Milorad , Pajić Vukašin
Published: October 2021

In the last decade, more and more attention has been paid to the efficiency of logistics systems not only in the literature but also in practice. The reason is the huge savings that can be achieved. In a very dynamic market with environmental changes distribution centers have to realize their activities and processes in an efficient way. Distribution centers connect producers with other participants in the supply chain, including end-users. The main objective of this paper is to develop a DEA model for measuring distribution centers’ efficiency change in time. The paper investigates the impact of input and output variables selection on the resulting efficiency in the context of measuring the change in efficiency over time. The selection of variables on the one hand is a basic step in applying the DEA method. On the other hand, the number of basic and derived indicators that are monitored in real systems is increasing, while the percentage of those used in the decision-making process is decreasing (less than 20%). The developed model was tested on the example of a retail chain operating in Serbia. The main factors changing the efficiency have been identified, as well as the corresponding corrective actions. For measuring efficiency change in time Malmquist productivity index is used. The developed approach could help managers in the decision-making process and also represents a good basis for further research.

Published: October 2021

In the logistics world, special attention should be given to warehousing systems, cost rationalization, and improvement of all the factors that affect efficiency and contribute to smooth functioning of logistics subsystems. In real time industrial practice, the issue of evaluating and selecting the most appropriate forklift involves a complex decision-making problem that should be formulated through an efficient analytical model. The forklifts efficiency plays a very important role in the company. The forklifts are being used on a daily basis and no logistical processes could be done without them. Therefore, it has been decided to determine their efficiency, which will contribute to the optimization of the process in this logistics subsystem. This study puts forward an integrated forklift selection model using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), Full Consistency Method (FUCOM) and Measurement Alternatives and Ranking According to the Compromise Solution (MARCOS) methods. Five input parameters (regular servicing costs, fuel costs, exceptional servicing costs, total number of all minor accidents and damage caused by forklifts) and one output parameter (number of operating hours) were first identified to assess efficiency of eight forklifts in a warehousing system of the Natron-Hayat company using the DEA model. This step allows sorting of efficient forklifts which are subsequently evaluated and ranked using FUCOM and MARCOS methods. A sensitivity analysis is also performed in order to check reliability and accuracy of the results. The findings of this research clearly show that the proposed decision-making model can significantly contribute to all spheres of business applications.

Published: October 2021

Abstract: Power systems may revelation the harmful and undesirable chaotic phenomenon in certain conditions. This project describes the control of a chaotic oscillation in power system. Chaos may lead the power system to voltage instability and voltage collapse when voltage stability conditions are broken. Chaotic oscillations are very sensitive to parameter and initial conditions of power system. Many controllers are projected in practical to suppress the chaos and avoid voltage collapse. In this thesis, a Conventional Sliding Mode Control is applied for removal of chaotic oscillations. The aim of the controller is to remove the chaotic oscillations and bring the order to the nonlinear system. It is also shown that the proposed controller assurances the system state convergence to their desired ethics. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the projected controller, MATLAB Programming is done. Keywords: Chaotic oscillations, SMIB, Conventional Sliding Mode Control

Psychiatric Morbidity and Social Exclusion among Sex Workers - A Review of Literature
Authors: Varghese Anugraha
Published: October 2021

Abstract: "Commercial sex workers" refers to those who engage in prostitution, and have been used in the literature on the subject over a period of time. The term has been adopted, which is free of the complex, derogatory and sexist connotations, which are often linked with the concept of a "slut". Sex work includes a wide variety of activities, including the exchange of foreign currency (or an equivalent) for the purchase of sex, and sexual services. Sex work has been attributed to several psychiatric issues, including physical violence as a child, sexual assault as a child, adult domestic discrimination, substance abuse, trauma etc. Commercial sex work, according to Medrano, and Gilchrist, is often correlated with the socio-demographic disadvantage such as ethnic minority, low-income, food and nutrition, and a lack of education and training. Sex workers may be exposed to the stigma of the action, and, therefore, have a high risk for psychiatric morbidity. There is indeed a scarcity of literature into how sex workers deal with mental health and stigma. The stigma of the sex industry would have a direct impact on the mental health of sex workers. The need to control, and the risk of selective disclosure of the sex work is the usual on-the-job. The objective of this review is to examine the current literature on sex workers, with a focus on health as well as other forms of social isolation such as disability, homelessness, and drug abuse. There aren't many articles dedicated to mental health, social isolation, or sex work. The paper is divided into three sections based on three major themes. The very first theme looks at the causes that lead to insecurity, social isolation, and sex work participation. The second topic examines how exclusionary mechanisms impact sex workers' mental health and the most common mental illnesses in the sex worker population. Finally, the third topic considers how exclusionary mechanisms impact the lives of sex workers, as well as the various degrees of social exclusion faced by different classes of sex workers. Sex workers, especially on-the-street, off-the-street, transient, and trafficked sex workers, face potential threats and sickness. Several of these impediments are connected to wider questions of social exclusion that go far beyond sex work. Keywords: Sex worker, psychiatric morbidity, social exclusion, sex work stigma, factors affecting entrance into sex workers.

Ontological Motives of Home-Antihome in the Novel Demons by F.M. Dostoevsky
Authors: Kulieva Sheker A.
Published: October 2021

Dostoevsky realizes the motive of home in an inseparable antinomical connection with the motive of homelessness, which is opposite to it, artistically embodied in the idea of familylessness, wandering, Chaos, and Entropy. The relevance of the study of the motives of home and homelessness lies in the gradual reconstruction of the author's concept of the saving future. In this article, the motives of home and homelessness are considered in several aspects, including toponymic, functional, archetypal and ontological. We tried to demonstrate the implementation of the stated motives at the level of such categories as faith-unbelief, Heaven and Hell, brotherhood and isolation. In the novel Demons , the idea of national soil and separation from it, the possible salvation of a person and the consequences that await society in the event of the dominance of demons and the loss of the primordial brotherhood - the intimate connection between people, is consistently developed. From this point of view, the motives of home and homelessness become significant for the novel space. The archetype of home contains the idea of a saving own circle, which is opposed to the outside world with its hostility, spontaneity, and disaster. Everything that is located outside this circle are elements belonging to the anti-world, and therefore their effect on the microcosm of home is destructive. Analysis of the text confirms that the archetype of Dostoevsky's home is destabilized. Its tightness is broken; the boundaries protecting the interior are permeable. The motive of the home is typically supplanted by the motive of homelessness, and therefore it is natural to consider this motive couple in its antinomical continuity. In the above study, the motives of home and homelessness are considered as ontological: they are associated with the existential level of the work, due to which it is possible to establish the ontological status of the actants and determine the relationship with the so-called initial idea.
Two Councils by A.N. Maykov in F.M. Dostoevsky’s Novel The Brothers Karamazov
Authors: Sokolov Boris V.
Published: October 2021

The article is devoted to the issue of reception of the poems about Catholic Church written by A.N. Maykov, a close friend of F.M. Dostoevsky, in his novel The Brothers Karamazov and, above all, in The Legend of the Grand Inquisitor. We are talking about the poems - The Queens Confessions. The Legend of the Spanish Inquisition, Sentence. The Legend of the Constance Council and The Legend of the Clermont Council. It is The Queens Confessions which led Dostoevsky to make Seville the setting for the Legend of the Grand Inquisitor. The main character of the Sentence, Cardinal Hermit, became the prototype of the Grand Inquisitor in Dostoevskys novel, and the main character of The Legend of Clermont Council, the Pilgrim Hermit, in many ways became the prototype of the unrecognized Christ from the Legend of the Grand Inquisitor. The article presents significant textual parallels between Maykovs poems and The Brothers Karamazov .
The Problem of Positive and Destructive Freedom: The Interpretation of the Arkady Svidrigailov Image
Authors: Gorbachevsky Cheslav A.
Published: October 2021

This article examines the problem of the relationship between freedom and self-will on the example of one of the heroes of Dostoevskys novel Crime and Punishment . Attention is focused not only on the canonical text of the novel, but also on the preparatory materials for it. The task is to identify the connection between the above named problem and the suicide problem of Arkady Ivanovich Svidrigailov. The thesis is put forward that for Dostoevskys heroes, self-will often becomes a fetter for their own nature and their own passions. With the help of debauchery, Svidrigailov tries to assert himself, giving his soul to the mercy of willfulness. There is a certain pattern in the fact that such a worldview logical chain ends with the tragic act of suicide. Arkady Ivanovich adores comfort, and therefore, in accordance with his own logic, his murder by Dunya, which did not happen, can be considered, among other things, as an attempt of a comfortable method of suicide. In the preparatory materials for the novel, Svidrigailov protests against cowardly meanness and puts suicide above such a humiliating state, although he understands the entire flaw in such a situation. For all the complexities the problem of freedom and self-will - one of the leitmotifs of religious and philosophical themes in the writers work - Dostoevsky does not see its formal, external solution.
Socialism and/or Christianity: F.M. Dostoevsky’s Influence on S. Lagerlöf's Novel Antichrist’s Miracles
Authors: Andreichuk Kseniia R.
Published: October 2021

In the 1880s. F.M. Dostoevsky was perceived in Sweden as a revolutionary writer, therefore there was great attention to his political views, which influenced among others S. Lagerlf, who read Dostoevsky in Swedish, Danish and, possibly, in French. In the novel Antichrists Miracles (1897) S. Lagerlf talks about Italy, a Catholic country where the church has much more power than in Protestant lands. In this regard, Lagerlf actualizes F.M. Dostoevskys reflections on the connection between the state and the church, presented in Brothers Karamazov and other novels. The key question that interests both F.M. Dostoevsky and S. Lagerlf is whether people can build the kingdom of Christ on earth when Christ said: My kingdom is not of this world. F.M. Dostoevsky examines this problem in most detail in the unfinished article Socialism and Christianity , which S. Lagerlf could not read, but she was undoubtedly familiar with Dostoevskys thoughts on this matter put into the mouths of Zosima and Prince Myshkin. In S. Lagerlf's novel Antichrists Miracles , the main character becomes a socialist, though he dreamed of becoming a priest in childhood, like Alyosha Karamazov. A fake image of Christ with the words My kingdom is only on earth becomes a banner of socialism in Lagerlf's novel. This image works wonders but only related to earthly goods. At the end of the novel, Lagerlf comes to the conclusion (put into the mouth of the Pope) that this image should not be destroyed, but the earth should be reconciled with heaven. This conclusion is consistent with Dostoevskys ideas about the universal church realized on earth.
A.N. Veselovsky’s Theory of Motive and Plot in the Reflection of a Folk Tale
Authors: Govenko Tatiana V.
Published: October 2021

The article deals with the main provisions of the theory of motive and plot of the outstanding Russian philologist A.N. Veselovsky (1838-1906) in the light of a folk tale. At the archaic stage, as the scientist believed, the composition of the fairy tale obeyed the laws of syncretic consciousness and dualistic worldview, which determined the specifics of not only its existence, but also the logical and semantic basis of the fairy-tale model. With the transition to the religious-historical paradigm of public consciousness, there is a semiotic and morphological reorganization of the plot of the fairy tale. The task is to find out how the scientific method of differentiated study of motive and plot allowed Veselovsky to prove that the operating system of the motive is strongly connected with apperception and suggestion, and the plot - with combination and discourse, that the motive is directly related to fiction, and the plot - to the idea, but at the same time their commonality is expressed by the ideological and artistic concept.
Intertextual Connections between the Novels The Goat in MILK by Yu. Polyakov and The Joke of the Patron by A. Averchenko
Authors: He Jinhua
Published: October 2021

This article is devoted to the analysis of the links between the novels The Joke of the Patron by A. Averchenko and The Goat in Milk by Yu. Polyakov. The purpose of the article is to explain the aspects that bring the two works together, as well as to reveal the characteristics that distinguish Yu. Polyakov from his predecessor. The task is to clarify the traditions of Russian literature and novelty in the novel The Goat in Milk by Yu. Polyakov. In the article, the author examines the similarity of the two works on the plot level, finds similar artistic techniques and motives for the actions of the characters. In addition, the article focuses on the gallery of Soviet writers created by Yu. Polyakov, as well as the important role of the historical event-the collapse of the USSR - in the life of the main characters. In his novel The Goat in Milk , Yu. Polyakov reflects the late Soviet and post-Soviet life in the literary circle. Attention to social phenomena and the development of history in the work of Yu. Polyakov is of great social and historical significance. We can say that Yu. Polyakov did not just borrow the plot of Averchenko, but on its basis he improved the original and gave a peculiar interpretation of the era of change from the point of view of the writer from the Soviet Union.
Causes of the Infodemic Outbreak: Media Coverage of the SARS Epidemic and the COVID-19 Pandemic Comparative Analysis
Authors: Zemlyanskiy Alexander V.
Published: October 2021

The article raises the problem of the destructive impact of the infodemic phenomenon on the life of the society. In order to understand the todays infodemic the author suggests conducting a comparative analysis of the media coverage of the SARS epidemic and the COVID-19 pandemic to identify common features in the work of editorial teams during such global challenges as an outbreak of a new dangerous disease. After having analyzed all relevant aspects the author arrives to conclusion that the key features and characteristics of the process, which in 2020 was called infodemic, also took place during the SARS in 2003. Given the fact that the media have been following the same concept of coverage for years, it can be assumed that during a new pandemic, journalists will make the same mistakes and let infodemic get in the way of spreading truthful information again. Having analyzed in detail the algorithms of media coverage of the two mentioned pandemics, the author raises the following questions: increasing responsibility of media towards their target audiences for publishing fake news; deeper fact-checking of information that could pose a threat to the society.
O dia em que os dândis tomaram chá com Jacques Rancière: as relações entre polícia e política na perspectiva das estéticas dândis
Authors: Marconi Dieison
Published: October 2021

Através de uma montagem dialética e simbólica de diferentes imagens dândis, este artigo reflete sobre as contribuições que a teoria de Jacques Rancière oferece para compreender a legibilidade política das estéticas dândis que tem atravessado fronteiras temporais e geográficas, inclusive reaparecendo na cultura visual contemporânea. Simultaneamente a isso, o artigo também apresenta as contribuições que o próprio dandismo oferece para compreender a constituição mútua e indissociável do estético e do político, sintetizada sobretudo no que Rancière nomeia como partilha do sensível, mais especificamente ainda no que diz respeito à relação pendular entre polícia e política –, essas duas partilhas que comporiam o comum fracionado.
Quando tudo se inflama: levantes, violência, imagem
Authors: Lage Leandro Rodrigues
Published: October 2021

Este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar e discutir dimensões estéticas e políticas de imagens fotográficas alusivas aos atos e protestos antirracistas ocorridos em 2020. O objetivo é tensionar as diferentes figurações da violência nas imagens de manifestações do movimento #vidasnegrasimportam e das mobilizações pelo Dia da Consciência Negra no Brasil, buscando discutir: a experiência da violência como motivação das insurgências, a violência subjacente aos gestos de sublevação, a violência empreendida para controlar os levantes e, por fim, a força percussiva das próprias imagens. Colocar essas imagens sob escrutínio significa, de um ponto de vista metodológico, fazer não apenas uma crítica dos levantes, mas propor também uma crítica da violência e do modo como as imagens operam diante das potências e formas de poder que atravessam essas manifestações em diferentes direções. Às imagens em análise, selecionadas com base, principalmente, em sua ampla circulação, coube fazer uma síntese das emoções da revolta e testemunhar, a partir do olho da história, os momentos em que o monopólio da violência é exercido e também posto à prova, em que a violência se opõe à própria violência, em que tudo se inflama e o páthos da indignação é não somente representado, mas também visualmente expresso.

O malandro no cinema: atualização da figura do malandro em Madame Satã, de Karim Aïnouz
Authors: Porfírio Iago , Gomes Marques Márcia
Published: October 2021

Neste trabalho se discute a representação do malandro em diferentes movimentos do cinema nacional, a fim de indagar sobre a relação dessa representação com a marginalização e a resistência de personagens com corpos negros. Utilizamos as contribuições de Michel de Certeau (2007) e de Giorgio Agamben (1993) acerca do ser qualquer, de modo a identificar as situações que compelem às formas de vida do malandro, como sobrevivência nos espaços sociais. Com a identificação desse tipo social em filmes de diferentes períodos, e de elementos do malandro na vida cotidiana e como sintoma da comunidade que vem, analisamos Madame Satã (2002) como atualização do personagem no Brasil contemporâneo.
Psicopolítica: o neoliberalismo e as novas técnicas de poder
Authors: Silva Patricia , Maia Jadson , Almeida Cristina
Published: October 2021

“Proteja-me do que quero” é o aviso sutil inerente ao capitalismo contemporâneo, explica Byung-Chul Han (2018b, p. 28) em Psicopolítica: o neoliberalismo e as novas técnicas de poder. Embora seja característico desse filósofo sul-coreano ser breve na exposição de seus pensamentos, não é seu perfil oferecer uma leitura tranquila — ele acaba por conceber doses homeopáticas de desconforto. Ensaísta radicado na Alemanha, Han leciona na Universidade de Berlim. Sua elaboração teórica é voltada para a relação entre o neoliberalismo e a vida psicológica dos indivíduos, como podemos observar em obras como Sociedade do cansaço (HAN, 2015), No enxame: perspectivas do digital (HAN, 2018a) e O que é poder? (HAN, 2019). No livro objeto desta resenha, o autor dirige proposições cirúrgicas para pensar como “a liberdade e a comunicação ilimitada se transformaram em monitoramento e controle total” (HAN, 2018b, p. 19).

Evidence of autoimmunity triggered by SARS-CoV-2 in acute and Post-acute COVID-19: a systematic literature review
Authors: Tselios Konstantinos , Jamil Rameen , Mukherjee Manali
Published: October 2021

Accumulating evidence suggest that autoimmune phenomena are frequent
during Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and may lead to clinically
overt disease. The breakdown of immune tolerance and/or impaired immune
reconstitution after the initial phase may be involved in the
pathogenesis [1]. The ensuing autoimmunity may also be involved in
Post-Acute COVID syndrome (PACS) [2]. Herein, we evaluate the
current scenario based on anecdotal patient reports of new-onset
autoimmune disease/diagnosis as a sequalae of COVID-19.
Direct and indirect effects of COVID 19 on thalassemia care in an adult thalassaemia care unit in Sri Lanka

Published: October 2021

Patients with thalassemia syndromes(TS) affected with COVID 19 attending
a thalassemia center in Sri Lanka situated in the region most affected
with COVID 19 were studied over a 16- month period. To assess the
collateral effects on overall thalassemia care in the center, data on
transfusion, chelation, clinic attendance was analyzed. Morbidity events
and deaths recorded during the COVID 19 period and a similar period
before the beginning of COVID 19 infection in Sri Lanka too were
reordered in all clinic registrants. Seven patients (of 502) with TS had
developed COVID 19 during the 16-month period and all were minimally
symptomatic and had recovered without complications. Number of monthly
clinic visits reduced from 338 in pre-COVID19 to 268 during COVID-19 (P
= 0.004). Iron chelators usage too reduced during pandemic period (P
< 0.001). Though admissions related to morbidity reduced
during the pandemic (58 vs 16, P <0.001) there were more non
COVID19 deaths (8 vs 4). Numbers affected with COVID 19 and the severity
of infection seemed milder in this cohort of patients with TS but the
collateral effects on the management of the unit and its effects on
mortality in this vulnerable population appears to have been
substantial.

The binary In ? Li system is a promising Li-ion battery anode material as well as a part of the important ternary Ge ? In ? Li system. The thermodynamic descriptions of metallic systems are widely used to retrieve information necessary for alloy applications. In this work, a thermodynamic model of a binary indium ? lithium system prepared by the Calphad approach is proposed. The liquid phase was described by an associate model, and the solid phases determined by the ab-initio calculation were included in the thermodynamic modeling. The obtained set of self-consistent thermodynamic parameters well reproduces the available experimental data and enables further calculations of multi-component systems. A good agreement between the calculations and the available experimental data was found. The proposed model can be used for further descriptions of ternary systems.
Effect of binary basicity on chromium occurrence in stainless steel slag

Published: October 2021

Comprehensive utilization of stainless-steel slag (SSS) is restrained due to the risk of Cr6+ leaching. Based on the studying the microstructure of synthetic slag (SS) containing Cr2O3 with XRD, SEM-EDS, and Image pro, the effect of binary basicity on the chromium occurrence in SSS was investigated. The results indicated that the binary basicity had a significant impact on the properties of spinel crystals. There was a positive correlation between the calcium content in spinel crystals and the SS basicity. The size of spinel crystals varied from large to small and the precipitation occurrence changed with the basicity increase. Furthermore, the chromium occurrences changed with the basicity. The chromium was produced in spinel crystals at lower basicity, but as the basicity increased to 3.0, the chromium precipitated as calcium chromate. In view of the relationship between the chromium leaching behavior and its occurrence, increasing basicity raised the Cr6+ leaching.

Novel yellow to blackish green Ni-doped aluminium titanate (Al2TiO5) ceramic
pigments were synthesized by solid-state reaction method at 1400 ?C. Effects
of nickel doping content on phase composition, microstructure, optical
properties and stability were studied. The results show that the higher
content of Al2TiO5 phase and the reduction of the lattice distortion of
aluminium titanate could be attributed to the entry of nickel ions into
aluminium titanate lattice resulting in the formation of solid solution.
Ni-doped aluminium titanate ceramic pigments show exceptional glaze
colouring and are expected to be promising high-temperature pigments.

Education in Indonesia is still relatively low, because students have not been able to face the challenges of the industrial revolution 4.0. There needs to be an educational concept that is able to answer the challenges of the industrial revolution 4.0, one of which is STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics). This study aims to analyze the potential of STEAM contained in the Teacher's Book and Student's Book Theme 1-9 Revised 2017 grade IV Elementary School. This research is a qualitative descriptive study with the object of research directed to find out the potential of STEAM contained in the 2017 Revised Teacher's Book and Student's Book for Grade IV Elementary School. Data obtained from secondary data in the form of Teacher's Books and Revised 2017 Student Books for Class IV Elementary Schools that have been analyzed. The data collection method used the documentation analysis method so that the researchers analyzed the Theme Books 1-9 Class IV Elementary School. The data analysis method used is the Miles and Huberman model starting with data collection, data presentation, data reduction, and drawing conclusions and verification. The results show that there are facts that have STEAM potential and facts that have STEAM potential with an average of 80% of STEAM potential from the number of lessons in Themes 1-9. So, the results of the analysis of the 2017 Revised Teacher's Book and Theme Book for Grade IV Elementary School have the potential for STEAM. However, there are some learnings that do not have STEAM facts, so the learning does not have STEAM potential.
