Authors: Zhang Meng , Fang Zhong , Hao Yu , Du Wei , Pan Xuchao , Jiao Junjie , He Yong
Published: December 2023

The EMP couples with electronic devices via cables, inducing electromagnetic damage effects. This paper elucidates the operational principles of a navigation receiver and simplifies the study by focusing on the radio frequency front-end module. Many PCI tests were conducted on its signal input port, yielding the damage threshold of the navigation receiver. An analysis of the output waveforms of the modules that incurred damage was also performed. Through infrared research, it was discovered that the damaged LNA experiences a rapid temperature rise to around 73°C during operation with applied power. The electromagnetic damage effect in the LNA primarily stems from internal MOS transistor short circuits. The BPF protects the subsequent circuit stages but is also susceptible to damage.

Published: December 2023

Flow velocity as the basic hydrodynamic condition significantly affects bacterial proliferation and biofilm formation, yet how different flow velocity influences the attachment and distribution of dominant bacteria in different ecological types is poorly understood. In this work, We collected samples from the bottom, side walls and water samples at the flow rates of 0.794m/s and 0.538m/s, respectively. Through high-throughput sequencing identification and analysis technology, it was found that the composition abundance of Acinetobacter and Psychrobacter, as dominant bacteria, could reach 70%-80% in the floating state, and the attached bacteria at low flow rates were about 20% higher than those at high flow rates. The results showed that the high flow rate inhibited the attachment behavior of dominant bacteria and changed the species composition structure in the overlapping area of multiple samples, which provided a new direction for the prevention and control of microbial corrosion and pollution in waters.

Published: December 2023

To study the effects of different treatments on the germination characteristics of Salvia miltiorrhiza seed, Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds were treated by fludioxonil and carbendazim, and were studied with different thickness of covering soil. The results showed that with the increase of soil cover thickness, the germination rate of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds significantly decreased. The thickness of covering soil was  0 cm, the germination of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds was the best and the germination rate was 42.08%. When the thickness of covering soil was 1.0 cm, the germination rate of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds significantly decreased, only 2.91%, which was 93.08% lower than the control. The appropriate concentration of seed coating agent can improve the germination rate of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds. When the soil thickness was 0 cm+1.25 g∙L-1 fludioxonil, the best germination effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds was observed, and the germination rate was 59.17%, which increased 40.61% compared to 0 cm soil alone. The germination rate of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds treated with 0 cm+2.5 g∙L-1 fludioxonil was only 13.75%, which was 28.33% lower than the germinationg rate with the soil thickness of 0 cm alone. There was no significant difference in the germination rate of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds treated with 0.05% carbendazim compared with the control group; The germination rate of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds treated with 0.1% carbendazim was significantly lower than that of the control group covered with 0 cm soil alone. In summary, The best germination level of Salvia miltiorrhiza seed was the cover thickness of 0 cm soil and 1.25 g ∙ L-1 concentration of  fludioxonil, ( 0 cm+1.25 g∙L-1). The treatment of seeds with 2.5 g∙L-1 concentration of chloramphenicol showed a significant inhibitory effect on the germination of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds. In conclusion, Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds treated with 1.25 g∙L-1 concentration of fludioxonil and 0 cm covered soil, the germination rate, germination potential, and germination index are 59.17%, 51.67%, and 14.27, respectively, which increased by 40.61%, 61.07%, 77.28% compared with the soil of 0 cm alone.  It is suggested that breeding of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds should be carried out on land with the appropriate concentration of fludioxonil.

Published: December 2023

This experiment compared the effects of a novel rice establishment method with traditional machine-transplanting carpet seedling (MTCS). The new method (RSSR) is a modified direct seeding method, which manually or drone aerial sowed the seeds into the field before wheat harvesting, then cover the seeds with wheat straw after harvesting. Samples were measured to compare the difference of plant height, stem width, and panicle length, straw biomass, effective panicle, spikelets per panicle, panicle weight, 100 grain weight, and grain yield. The results showed that compared with MTCS, RSSR can increase rice growth indicators and yield indicators, but had no significant difference. Only the panicle weight of RSSR was significantly higher than that of MTCS. Furthermore, the management of RSSR was more convenient, which can save water, herbicide and human labor. Thus, this new rice establishment method can be introduced to the wheat-rice and rapeseed-rice rotation area.

Authors: Shen Jian , Chi Dianci , Xi Bingrou
Published: December 2023

Coastal sediment is important for the development of river deltas and for carrying both nutrients and pollutants into estuaries and coasts. Totally 265 surficial sediments collected from the Pearl River Estuary and its adjacent coastal ocean were analyzed by using Gao-Collins method to study the sediment transport path and deposition center. The Pearl River Estuary was an area of sandy mud sediment and showed some muddy patches. There were 5 distinguishable sediment convergence centers, which represent 3 types of sediment transport patterns and hydrodynamic environments. The net sediment transport pathways in the estuary and shelf sea were mainly in the offshore and landward direction, respectively. The analyzed results indicated that the main part of muddy sediment was confined to the mouth of the estuary due to the combined effects of the expansion and salinity intrusion.

Study on the Design Method of a New Type of Compressor Slotted Blade
Authors: Yang Jianfei , Zhou Zhenggui
Published: December 2023

the compressor has been developing towards the direction of high pressure ratio, high efficiency and wide stability margin. The flow in the air compressor blade channel presents a strong inverse pressure gradient. In order to reduce losses and improve the stability of the pressure aircraft, this paper adopts a slot structure from the leading edge of the blade to the suction surface. Air is injected from the front edge of the blade and discharged from the suction surface. The automatic optimization method is used to design the slot. The results show that the blade profile with inlet Mach number 0.4 and the diffusion factor 0.6, the total pressure loss of slotted blade profile is lower than that of unslotted blade profile, and the airflow Angle is greater than that of unslotted blade profile in the whole range of low loss incident Angle. In the incidence of 0 degree, due to the control effect of slotted jet on the boundary layer of the blade suction surface, the boundary layer separation zones on the blade suction surface becomes smaller and the wake also decreases, so the total pressure loss of the slotted blade profile decreases by 37%. When the incidence angle is 4°, the separation area of the suction surface boundary layer is larger, and the slotted jet has a better control effect on the boundary layer of the blade suction surface. However, When the incidence angle is -6°, boundary layer separation zones on the suction surface becomes smaller, and the boundary layer separation zones appears on the pressure surface, so the slotting effect is poor.

Published: December 2023

A ansiedade constitui atualmente uma das principais queixas entre os estudantes universitários, especialmente os da área de saúde. O presente trabalho busca, então, analisar os níveis de ansiedade-estado dos estudantes de medicina da Universidade Católica de Pernambuco, correspondente ao estado emocional de ansiedade do indivíduo em apenas um dado momento, ou seja, o modo como ele reage a situações estressantes típicas da rotina de um aluno da área de saúde, em determinado dia. Foram também considerados fatores sociodemográficos (sexo, idade, estado civil, período em curso, função empregatícia e realização de outra graduação anteriormente) e a interferência dos mesmos nos escores de ansiedade-estado. Para isso, foi utilizado o Inventário de Ansiedade-Estado – IDATE, composto por 20 afirmativas relacionadas com o estado emocional do indivíduo no momento da aplicação do questionário. Os participantes assinalam cada assertiva com um número de 1 a 4, de acordo com a intensidade do que sentem, sendo 4 o número que representa a maior intensidade. Os participantes são todos voluntários e maiores de 18 anos, estando cientes da pesquisa e dos objetivos, além disso, assinam um termo de consentimento livre e esclarecido (TCLE), antes de responder ao questionário, sendo assegurados que terão identidade preservada. Nos resultados, foi visto que 80 % dos estudantes possuem escores médios de ansiedade-estado e os demais possuem escore alto, sendo que nenhum obteve escore baixo. Pôde-se observar que o fator sociodemográfico mais relevante nos escores foi a idade, já que a maioria dos estudantes com escore alto no momento da coleta dos dados tinham 22 anos ou menos, mostrando que os mais jovens possuem mais dificuldades de lidar com estímulos estressantes e controlar o estado de ansiedade, estando assim mais propícios aos sintomas típicos das crises de ansiedade e suas consequências.

Published: December 2023

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect season on sperm quality in fresh and cryopreserved boar sperm. Ejaculates (59) of fertile boars were divided into 4 groups according to season: winter, spring, summer and autumn. Semen volume, sperm motility, sperm concentration, percentage of morphologically abnormal spermatozoa, total number of spermatozoa per ejaculate, sperm motility after 24h storage time and the AST activity before cryopreservation and after thawing in supernatant was assessed. Samples of diluted sperm in a semen-dilution rate of 1+1.5 in Androhep were stored at 17°C until the next day. Sperm was cryopreserved. Straws were thawed in a water bath at 38°C for 40 sec and sperm motility was evaluated immediately. It was recorded that only about 49% of boars were suitable for cryopreservation. Their motility was higher than 30% which is tolerable for AI. Season affected the semen volume, fresh sperm motility, percentage of morphologically abnormal spermatozoa, sperm motility after 24h storage time, AST activity in supernatant, AST activity after thawing and post-thaw sperm motility which was the highest in spring. A significant negative correlation coefficient was noted between sperm motility and AST activity. There was no significant effect of season on sperm concentration and total number of spermatozoa per ejaculate. These data support the notion that cryopreservation of boar semen in spring may yield sperm with greater post-thaw sperm motility.

Published: December 2023

Claw measurement is necessary to evaluate the effect of claw size on the lameness. A study was conducted on 54 crossbred cattle and 82 Murrah buffaloes maintained under similar feeding and management practices at university dairy farm. The animals were first evaluated for lameness on a five point scale. Each animal was then restrained in a lameness chute and claw measurements, viz. foot angle, claw length, length of the dorsal border, coronary band, abaxial groove and base were measured. Besides these, animal age, lactation number and body weight, heart girth and rump width were recorded. Claw volume (cm3) was calculated using Scott et al. (1999) formula. Multiple linear regression analysis of the data revealed that claw volume of the cattle increased with increasing age, lactation number, heart girth and rump width but not with the increasing body weight. In buffaloes, claw volume increased as the age, lactation number, rump width, heart girth and body weight of the animal increased. The cumulative effect of all the independent variables was more evident in cattle (R2 = 0.67) as compared to buffaloes (R2 = 0.42). Claw volume/body weight ratio was significantly more in buffaloes, whereas lameness score was more in cattle as compared to buffaloes. A significant positive correlation between lameness score and claw volume/body weight ratio was observed in cattle (r=0.36). Total lesion score showed a significant negative correlation with claw volume/ body weight ratio indicating buffaloes with more claw volume per unit body weight have less lesion score. Buffaloes were having smaller foot angles therefore having more claw lengths and lengths of the dorsal border as compared to cows.

The demand for food proteins, including plant and animal proteins is increasing at an exponential rate. The demand for animal products will nearly be doubled by 2030. Thus, to improve livestock production and meet the animal protein demand, it is essential to go for application of interventions based on genomics, statistics and informatics. Such interventions are quite often used in the animal improvement programs to develop offspring with desirable traits. More recently, with the emergence of high throughput sequencing technologies, genomes of farm animals, fishes and model organisms were sequenced and the same are available in public domain. Also, with the advent of new silicon technologies, it has become possible to manage the generated data from genome sequencing projects. Now, the challenge lies with the analysis and interpretation of sequence data in a biologically meaningful manner, for which many algorithmic based analytical techniques and high performance computing methods were developed. Here, a brief review is presented on the application of various statistical and computational approaches used in genomic data analysis. Applications of the above mentioned approaches for health management and sustainable animal and fish production from the view point of vaccine and drug designing, disease risk management, epigenomics and whole genome level SNP/CNV associations with traits at are also discussed here. Besides, this paper allows the molecular biologists and other application scientists to analyze overwhelming amount of genomic data by different methods outlined here.
CREAREA ZBURĂTOARELOR ÎN ZIUA A V-A (TEORIA EVOLUȚIONISTĂ ÎN FAȚA CREAȚIONISMUL BIBLIC ȘI A BIOLOGIEI)
Authors: Borca Eusebiu
Published: December 2023

Creationism is the biblical teaching that God created the heavens and the earth, bringing everything into concrete existence through His creative Word and will. Through this creative act, God shows that Creation has its principle and purpose in God, making Him transparent. All varieties of birds were created from water. The expression "after their kind" is used only when life is being built, in the last three days of Creation, to understand that God, during this interval, built all living creatures on earth. This expression means that the type of animal is preserved by reproduction, which entitles us to say that the species did not evolve but remained the same. The noun "kind", "type", "classification", "species" shows there are fixed types or classifications. It is true that, within genetic limits, animals can evolve, but one species cannot transform into another. The main causes of the theory of biological evolution: natural selection and mutations eliminate from its assumptions the existence of a Creator. In arguing with evolutionists, creationists point out that for a flightless animal to become "flying", almost every anatomical structure would require changes, a theory that is not supported by any (fossil) evidence. Although we cannot fully understand the divine reason, Christians today can extract useful meaning from this creative action. Thus, we do not read them as myths, but try to value the sacred text and discover its divine message. Saint Ambrose shows that birds can provide "a parable for our living", because in them, "social and military leadership is natural", but in humans it is "forced and enslaved". The entire creation testifies to the Unity, Omnipotence and Wisdom of its Creator, which also manifests itself in the existence of a purpose for living beings, that of living, to offer oneself, which for man constitutes a path to salvation.
INTERPRETĂRI FENOMENOLOGICE ALE PRIVIRII ÎN E-LEARNING

In this analysis, we investigate whether the gaze is a simple ocular act or whether the eyes translate it, like a screen, into a two-sided act of subjectivity in relation to the Other. This can induce anxiety and shame in the disintegration of one's own universe, as highlighted by Sartre (eyes peering through the door frame, for fear of being seen in embarrassing poses); it can "touch" what it sees, taking place in a space of tangibility, as a palpation according to Merleau-Ponty; or it can be a call from the limits of the ego to the infinity of the Other, within an ethically grounded framework, as argued by Levinas. In the context of formal distance learning sessions, the act of looking is mediated by the webcam's "eye" – the webcam's pupil takes the place of the direct gaze, manifesting certain influences to both sides, observable in perspective. The teacher directs the gaze to the center of the frame, the circular center of the webcam which assimilates and transposes it onto the student's screen. The latter receives it in the absence of optical reciprocity, creating a unique situation where we look from one point on the screen, but are observed from all sides.
SURSE COMPLEMENTARE DE OPTIMIZARE A REGLĂRII CONDUITEI MORALE
Authors: Stan Liliana
Published: December 2023

The claim of morality in the existence of individuals and groups is a natural constant of all times. The materialization of moral conduct requires both subjective instances established at the level of each individual (such as moral conscience) and external benchmarks. The present study finds out the diversity and complementarity of external sources for optimizing the regulation of moral agents’ actions: regulatory documents (such as codes of ethics/ deontology/ codes of conduct or behaviour), individuals or groups of individuals responsible for supervising/ supporting the moral and ethical quality of professional activities (such as ethics counselors or ethics committees), institutions and their actions. In addition, the study points out the characteristics of some sources of optimization, respectively, of the ethics counselor, integrity advisor, the ombudsman, according to the provisions of the Romanian legislation. The components shown are also relevant to the sphere of educational action.
Of the virtual as a promotor of interpretations in the acting of the contemporary subject
Authors: Barrón Soto Héctor S.
Published: December 2023

A reflection on the concept of the virtual from a psychoanalytic perspective is elaborated, and its epistemological trajectory up to the present day is analyzed in order to identify its composition and its elements in relation to the structure of the subject, in order to locate its participation in the mechanisms of interpretation of the unconscious in psychoanalytic devices. Starting from the axiom that psychoanalysis is a praxis dedicated to acts, especially failed ones, and that the virtual, proposed as a performance without act, provides a power detached from signification, it is proposed that it finds expressions constituted either as symptoms -which are the ones of interest here, as language phenomena-, or as social representation scenarios such as "virtual reality", "virtualization phenomena", or "virtuality". The pertinence of this approach is sustained to the extent that the virtual has acquired not only a greater weight in the constitution of social relations, but its semblance is already seen as an inescapable factor to deepen the interpretation of that knowledge not known, or not wanted to know, of the subject of the unconscious.

Introduction: autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized mainly by deficits in communication and social interaction, being a barrier for these people when relating to their social and/or family environment. Among the best-known therapies to treat this disorder, conventional therapies stand out (i.e. cognitive-behavioral therapy and pharmacological therapy) and complementary therapies that are becoming increasingly prevalent among the population.Objective: analyze the effectiveness of complementary therapies in the communication of children with Autism spectrum disorder (ASD).Methodology: narrative review study, a literature search was carried out based on alternative therapies for ASD: "animal assisted therapy" (TAA) and "music therapy".  The search was carried out in SCOPUS, EBSCO and PUBMED. A total of 228 articles were found, of which 8 studies (n in the 8 studies = 569) met the search criteria.Results: five music therapy studies (n in the 5 studies=481) and three TAA studies (n in the 3 studies = 88) were found. Music therapy and TAA are the most frequently mentioned therapies in the literature, the latter being the one that has reported more and greater benefits from a qualitative perspective, mainly by caregivers of children with ASD. Some of the outstanding behaviors are: the increase in soft skills, improvement in communication and social interaction, and decrease in disruptive behaviors.Conclusion: of the eight studies that were analyzed, five of them reported significant benefits under a clinical qualitative criterion and by the families of the user who was participating in these therapies. Three of the music therapy studies did not show changes in the communication of the users, while one study highlighted the user-therapist relationship as a determining factor in the success or failure of the therapy

Context: Atorvastatin is typically used in the treatment of dyslipidemia. However, the interest in using anti-obesity medications such as orlistat has grown rapidly as obesity is one of the variables associated with dyslipidemia. Aims: To synthesize the findings from previous studies published to date on the potential effects of atorvastatin and tetrahydrolipstatin (orlistat) on the levels of serum LDL. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of research reports and RCTs about atorvastatin and orlistat on LDL levels from articles published in Medline, PubMed, and Scopus from 2012 to 2022 were conducted using PRISMA and RevMan 5.4 software. Results: From 9 final included articles, 6 focused on atorvastatin and 3 on orlistat. Five papers on atorvastatin reported a significant decrease in LDL level, whereas only 2 from orlistat papers. There is a significant decrease in LDL level associated with Atorvastatin treatment (p = 0.04, CI = 1.58, 56.81, I2 = 99%), but not with orlistat (p = 0.05, CI = 0.10, 17.69, I2 = 93%). Conclusions: Here, it is shown that atorvastatin instead of orlistat has a significant effect on decreasing LDL serum levels in dyslipidemia patients.
Evaluation of Some Botanical Extracts and Chemical Insecticides against Cabbage Aphids, Brevicoryne brassicae L. (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Cabbage (Brassicae oleracea) in West Shoa of Oromia, Ethiopia
Authors: Gonfa Ketema , Shiberu Tadele
Published: December 2023

Cabbage is Ethiopia's second most significant vegetable crop after red pepper (Capsicum spp), although its yield and yield components are influenced by a variety of factors, including cabbage aphids, which are a major pests in most of Ethiopia's cabbage-growing areas. This study was conducted to evaluate a newly introduced chemical insecticide (Kanthion 50% E.C), and locally available botanicals. Each treatment was replicated three times and the entire setup was arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) under field conditions. In the field, among the botanicals tested, N. tabacum, A. sativum, and lemon extract resulted in the highest percentage of nymphs and adult mortality greater than 65% within three days after application. In the field, non-treated control plants showed low yield as compared to the chemical, and botanical insecticide. The highest fresh weight (3.01 kg) was obtained from plants treated with Kanthion 50% E.C. This study indicates that Kanthion 50% E.C, N. tabacum, A. sativum, and Citrus limon could be recommended as an alternative management option against Brevicoryne brassicae (L) under field conditions.
Dijital Gözetim Kavramının Literatürdeki Gelişimi: Bibliyometrik Bir İnceleme
Authors: COŞKUN Aziz
Published: December 2023

Gözetim, birey ya da gruplar hakkında bilgi sahibi olunması, etiketleme, yönetme ya da iktidar elde etme vb. amaçlarla yapılan pratiklerdir. Eskiden sosyal hayatın devamını sağlamak, tehlikelere karşı önlem almak, olumsuz durumların önüne geçmek için kullanılan gözetim pratikleri, yeni iletişim teknolojilerinin gelişimine bağlı olarak farklı şekillerde yapılabilmektedir. Akıllı telefonlar ve tabletlerin öne çıktığı dijital gözetim düzeninde, gözetlemenin mekâna bağımlılığı son bulmuştur. Dijital gözetimde, yer ve zaman fark etmeksizin bireysel yaşamlar takip edilmekte, en mahrem bilgiler internet vasıtasıyla çok kısa sürede dolaşıma girmektedir. Bu çalışmada amaç, dijital gözetim hakkında yapılan çalışmaların bibliyometrik analizini yaparak araştırmacıların dikkatini konuya çekmektir. Kavram hakkındaki araştırma verileri, Clarivate Analytics Web of Science veri tabanından elde edilmiştir. 1991-2023 yılları arasında yayınlanan; 323 makale, 40 bildiri, 28 kitap bölümü, 19 editoryal içerik, 18 derleme makale, 17 erken görünüm çalışma, 5 toplantı özeti, 2 kitap, 2 düzeltme yazısı, 2 mektup ve 1 kitap eleştirisi olmak üzere birbirinden farklı eserlere ulaşılmıştır. Ulaşılan eserlerin analizlerini yapmak için bibliyometrik haritalama programı olan WOSviewer programı kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular sonucunda; ortak yazar analizi, yazarların atıf analizi, ülkelerin atıf analizi, kurumların atıf analizi, anahtar sözcük analizi, metinlerin bibliyografik eşleşme analizi, yazarların bibliyografik eşleşme analizi ve yazarların ortak atıf analizi hakkında şekiller ve ağ haritaları oluşturularak yorumlanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda ilgili literatürde 2014 yılı ve sonrasında önemli derecede artışın kaydedildiği görülmüştür. Araştırmanın sonuçları bu haliyle dijital gözetim literatürüne katkı sağlamanın ötesinde konu hakkında çalışma yapacak araştırmacılara yol gösterecektir.
