Incorporating Bacteria for Self-Healing Properties in Innovative Concrete Technology
Authors: Khalatbari Soheil
Published: January 2024

Nanotechnology is poised to offer a viable solution for achieving high performance in future construction projects. Among the innovative technologies being explored, smart concrete has garnered significant attention and undergone extensive research in reputable scientific centers worldwide in recent years. A notable advancement within this field is the development of self-healing concrete. Concrete structures are undeniably susceptible to cracking, primarily due to natural processes. These cracks serve as pathways for harmful substances to infiltrate and corrode the reinforcement bars, ultimately leading to the degradation of the concrete. Traditional approaches to address this issue involve the use of repair materials, particularly various polymers. However, these materials not only complicate the repair process but also have adverse environmental consequences. In light of these challenges, scientists have discovered an alternative method that involves incorporating bacteria into concrete production to create self-healing properties. This method not only reduces maintenance and repair costs but also minimizes environmental impact, thereby enhancing the durability and performance of the concrete while extending its service life. By harnessing the power of bacteria, self-healing concrete represents a significant breakthrough in sustainable construction practices.
Comprehensive Investigation of the Omega-Shaped Hybrid CFRP Sheet - Concrete Slab System: Experimental, Numerical and Analytical study
Authors: Bakhtiari Amir Mohammad , Harati Ali
Published: January 2024

Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites have been broadly applied in substitution of steel members at rehabilitation interventions thanks to their lightweight, high strength, and high corrosion resistance. Producing novel FRP-concrete hybrid structures is the next step researchers are dealing with. In this context, the present study focuses on the numerical and analytical modeling of the experimentally obtained response of hybrid FRP-concrete slabs subjected to three points bending tests. The analyzed hybrid elements consisted of an omega shape Carbon Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) sheet on which a concrete layer was cast forming a unidirectional slab member. A Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) fabric was bonded to the CFRP sheet and embedded into the concrete block to provide a connection between CFRP and concrete in one of the specimens. Simulation results showed agreement with the experimental response in terms of load-displacement curve, concrete plastic strain and failure mode. After validating the model, alternative designs (width, height, and thickness of CFRP sheet and concrete block on it) were numerically tested to study the influence of the geometry of the structural system on the load-bearing capacity. Lastly, analytical formulation assuming total compatibility and based on Euler-Bernoulli theory were implemented and contrasted with the experimental response. Overall results pointed out that the optimum design would be the one with increased height of both concrete and CFRP. For this improved configuration, the load-bearing capacity was increased by up to 44%.
The Effect of Polypropylene Fibers on the Behavior of Fiber Self-Compacting Concrete
Authors: Jamshidi Morteza
Published: January 2024

Fiber self-compacting concrete (FSCC), is a concrete that has been combined with fiber in its mix design. Extensive benefits of self-compacting concrete (SCC) in full fill the mold and achieving full compaction without vibration, with good behavior after concrete cracking, raise the idea of self-compacting concrete production. The fundamental challenge in this area is the unsatisfactory performance of concrete with fibers; In other words, using fibers in concrete will reduce concrete fluidity. Therefore, determining the appropriate percentage of fibers in SCC can be a precursor to extending the use of FSCC. In this study, polypropylene fibers with 0.5, 1, 0.1, and 2% of concrete mix design have been added to the self-compacting concrete mix design. Its impact on the performance of concrete has been evaluated using time and diameter of slump-flow, L-Box, J-ring, and V-funnel flow time tests. Based on the criteria defined by EFNARC standard, it was indicated that the FSCC containing 0.5% polypropylene fibers has an acceptable performance. Additionally, the effect of polypropylene fiber on the mechanical properties of hardened concrete has been studied using compressive strength and tensile tests and shown that changes in FSCC compressive strength and tensile with 0.5% polypropylene fiber are negligible.

The making of heritage is a complex contemporary process that permeates society from the normative contexts of the global as well as national level to local communities. It enters extremely various sites, since it is both part of rural and urban life-worlds, and it is present in the institutional spaces of museums. Cultural elements that have been extracted from their former contexts and transformed into heritage are no less diverse. The symbolic valorization effects on cultural phenomena of quite different historical periods, depending on the regional and local contexts of heritage-making. The prestige (acceptance or rejection) and meanings of the legacy of certain periods, the relationship to tradition, as well as the ways in which ‘authenticity’ are interpreted are products of a constant re-defining process led by diverse social actors such as members of local communities, cultural brokers, and experts. These positions often represent intertwining roles (researcher, expert, mediator, active or passive local actors), that are difficult to distinguish from one another in the various situations in which heritage-making can be researched empirically
Az örökség narratívája. Egyéniségek és intézmények, motivációs- és hátráltató tényezők a népi kultúra színpadra állítása mögött
Authors: Eitler Ágnes
Published: January 2024

Research trends focusing on heritage – whether they approach it from the philosophy of history, focus on the social and political embeddedness of heritagization, on heritage discourses, or the functioning of institutional systems built on the heritage paradigm, or even look for the cultural logic behind the practices of certain groups – all identify the development and existence of a reflective approach as the essential core of the phenomenon. A perspective that looks at its own past, its environment, and the empirical world with an express intention: it accentuates certain elements in order to meet a need for “preservation” and ensure a transition to the future. It typically looks to the past but actually “works” for its own present in treating the local lifeworld reflectively. My work is a case study that summarizes the outcomes of a field research carried out in Transylvania, in Szentgerice in the Nyárád Valley (Niraj Valley). At the center of the heritagization process analyzed in the example is a set of phenomena that, from the 1940s, has been staged as “folk culture” from the local lifeworld as a whole. Certain elements of local (folk) culture can exist as heritage if they are able to act as a condensation symbol – in Anthony P. Cohen’s sense – triggering an emotional identification with the locality and thus ensuring the occasional experience of belonging to the community. The condensation symbol of local heritagization efforts – the protagonist of my case study – is the “Szentgerice bottle dance”. When explaining the process of accentuation, I present the development of reflection as an approach and treatment (formative institutions and key actors), and also describe how seeing it as heritage functions. I emphasize that local heritage is a construct, an idea that was put together over decades as a result of a canonization process involving multiple actors. For this reason, mapping the occasions and actors of canonization and narrative circulation is essential for heritage-focused studies. The key to the success of references made to the condensation symbol is the knowledge and use of the grammar of heritage conservation on the part of those who experience a layer of local identity that is occasionally connected to the accentuated local element, and thus the locality. Observing, recording, and analyzing the local functioning of this grammar can deepen investigations focused on the cultural logic of heritage.

Internationalization of Traditional and E-Business in Finance: A Comparative Study
Authors: Pervaiz Ahsan
Published: January 2024

The phenomenon of internationalization has been extensively investigated, leading to the formulation of frameworks to encapsulate its fundamental principles. However, recent technological innovations have dismantled previously unassailable barriers. This same technological progress has increased digitized enterprises, more aptly known as E-Business Companies (EBCs). This study serves a dual purpose: firstly, to delve into widely researched conventional market entry theories, and secondly, to scrutinize the relevance of these theories concerning the internationalization process for both traditional and electronic businesses operating within the financial sector. Addressing this intricate subject necessitated a cross-case comparative analysis employing secondary data. Potential distinctions and parallels between the two were underscored by juxtaposing the case study entities. The outcomes revealed a contrast between the gradual expansion of traditional companies and the rapid internationalization process of EBCs, largely propelled by Internet technology and relatively unencumbered by traditional market entry barriers. Both firms’ managerial strategies and organizational culture influenced their expansion trajectories. This study contributes by consolidating and aggregating existing literature, enhancing its applicability, and furnishing a foundation for future research in this domain.

Published: January 2024

This study explores the complex relationship among corporate governance, financial performance, and stock prices in Pakistan's non-bank financial industry from 2017 to 2021. Employing panel least squares and generalized method of moments for empirical analysis, our research highlights the substantial and positive correlation between stock prices and earnings per share, emphasizing the significance of profits per share. Corporate governance factors, such as board meetings, board size, and board independence, exhibit shaded impacts on stock prices. Board meetings transition from insignificance in static analysis to a negative, substantial association in dynamic analysis. Conversely, board size and board independence remain insignificant, suggesting a limited influence on stock price fluctuations. Institutional ownership emerges as a robust driver, displaying a positive impact in both static and dynamic analyses. In contrast, managerial ownership yields mixed impacts, with static analysis revealing a nonsignificant negative relationship and dynamic analysis unveiling a significant negative association. The study underlines the need to consider both static and dynamic perspectives when evaluating these relationships, highlighting the temporal dynamics and lagged effects in assessing the influence of managerial ownership on stock prices. Additionally, return on assets demonstrates an insignificant impact on stock prices in Pakistan's non-bank financial industry, consistent across both static and dynamic analyses.

Salvation movements in the Melanesian region savvied as ‘cargo cults’, are generally based on myths. These myths are an expressive form of religious experience. Salvation movements, grounding themselves on myths, maintain that the movement basically possesses a religious significance. Since it is fraught with this significance, this article will delve on Christian theology, particularly soteriology concerning the myths in Cargo Cults. The reflection is focused on myths. Is there any substance of the Christian faith in the myths that are asserted in the salvation movements? The epicenter of pondering on it is revelation. Revelation as God's self-communication to humans. God’s communication is universal while humans’ rejoinders are partial due to its spatial-temporal characteristic. The Melanesian community have articulated them through mythical expressions

Commitment is a general phenomenon that occurs in all social systems like education and religion-catholic Church. Educators’ commitment refers to a psychological attachment to their school, students, profession, teaching and subject areas. It is widely recognized as a key factor that affects the success of educational goals and the development of students for it is an indicator to understand teacher’s motivation to enter the teaching profession, their desire to teach, their quality of teaching and adaptability, their performance and attitude toward school, students’ attitudes and learning and achievement, teachers’ attendance, teachers’ turnover (burnout). In this context, the commitment of the catholic educator to different subject areas (mission, catholic school identity, students, and the values of Augustinian education)  is seen as a call and a ministry through which they practice or witness their faith than just simply a ‘job’ or a ‘profession’. Every catholic educator should be obviously motivated by extrinsic rewards and intrinsic motivation. As an element of intrinsic motivation, faith plays vital role in sustaining catholic educators’ commitment. It is the primary and basic intrinsic motivator that influences their commitment through which they view their teaching ministry in different ways and perspectives.

Epistimologi Kekerasan Seksual Dalam Hak Ijbâr Wali Menurut Analisis Gender
Authors: Nabil Muhammad
Published: January 2024

Munculnya perencanaan undang-undang penghapusan kekerasan terhadap perempuan atau RUU-PKS menuai banyak kritik baik yang pro maupun yang kontra. Didalam RUU PKS tersebut apa yang terdapat pada pasal 11 ayat 2 huruf f menyatakan bahwa pemaksaan perkawinan merupakan tindak pidana kekerasan seksual. Padahal juga tidak sedikit perkara perceriaan yang disebabkan adanya perngaruh terhadap hak ijbar yang dimiliki oleh wali. Merespon hal tersebut dalam penelitian ini setidaknya memunculkan dua pertanyaan mendasar yaitu bagaimana epistimologi kekerasan seksual menurut analisis gender dan bagaimana hak ijbâr dapat memicu akar kekerasan seksual. Dari hasil penelitian ini bahwa hak ijbar tidak menunjukan sebagai akar dari kekerasan seksual kecuali adanya unsur paksaan (ikrah). Meskipun dalam pandangan fikih madzhab juga terjadi pro dan kontra tentang adanya ijbar. Hal ini berlangsung dikarenakan kedewasaannya seorang anak dalam memilih jodoh sehingga wali hanya sebagai pengesah dari perkawinan tersebut. Pendekatan dengan tema gender supaya dapat menjelaskan akar kekerasan seksual yang terjadi dalam hak ijbar yang dimaknai sebagai ikrah (paksaan) dan diskriminasi yang terjadi terhadap perempuan dari topik yang terkait.

The increasing market demand for polyurethane is due to its various functions, including being used as a coating material, adhesives, elastomers and hard foams.Polyurethane is a polymeric material that contains a functional group (-NHCOO-) in its main chain. In principle, polyurethane can be produced by reacting two reactive materials, polyol and isocyanate. Various researches are intensively carried out to synthesize polyurethane in order to improve the performance of polyurethane.Bentonite and chitosan are widely used as filler materials in polyurethane matrices to retain heat and improve the mechanical properties of polyurethane. The addition of bentonite and chitosan to polyurethane will affect the mechanical properties, thermal properties, and morphological structures which can be seen based on the FTIR test, TGA test, SEM test and Antibacterial test.In this study, variations of Bentonite and Chitosan 5.7.9% will be used, then the mixing process with Polyurethane will be carried out. The results showed that the results of the FTIR analysis showed that the mixing of Polyurethane and bentonite did not affect the wavelength absorption of the Polyurethane functional groups themselves. This was due to the mixing process which took place only physical bonds without chemical bonds. The results of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed changes in the weight of the material when heated and it could be concluded that the best sample was B:K 9%, because it experienced less weight loss. Based on the results of the Morphological Structure test with a Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) chitosan chain dispersed well into the bentonite interlayer, as shown by testing using the SEM tool. The results of the antibacterial test showed that the more chitosan and bentonite added, the better the ability to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli bacteria. In testing the activity of these bacteria it can be seen that chitosan and bentonite are better at inhibiting the growth of Escherichia coli than Staphylococcus aureus.

Biodegradable fiber polymer composites: Polylactic acid (PLA)/coir using bentonite refers to a type of composite material that combines polylactic acid (PLA) as the polymer matrix, coir fibers as reinforcement, and bentonite as a filler material. The aim of this composite is to develop a sustainable and environmentally friendly material that can potentially replace traditional synthetic composites.Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable and renewable polymer derived from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane. Hybrid fiber reinforced polymer nanocomposites were prepared from kenaf fiber, coir fiber, polypropylene and montmorillonite nanoclay through hot compression method. The study investigated the impact of fiber hybridization and montmorillonite on the physical, mechanical, and biodegradable properties of the composites. To increase adhesion and compatibility between the fiber and polymer matrix, both bentonite and coir fibers were treated with a 2% sodium hydroxide solution to reduce their hydrophilic nature before use. The mechanical properties of the composites, including tensile strength and Young's modulus, were measured using a universal tensile testing machine. Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed that montmorillonite significantly improved the adhesion and compatibility between fibers and the polymer matrix. Hybridization improved the biodegradability and water absorption characteristics of the composites, while MMT addition had the opposite effect on these properties.

Kaolin is a mineral found in sedimentary rocks known as claystone. Ultrasonic is used to accelerate the adsorption of metal ions on the adsorbent. This study aims to see the effect of the optimal temperature and time needed by the ultrasonic device to absorb metal ions in wastewater. Choline was activated using HCl, then modified with CTAB and ABS surfactants. Organokaolin modified with ABS was used to adsorb Fe (II) metal ions at 50℃, and those modified with CTAB were used to adsorb Mg (II) metal at 70℃, and each time varied 10,20,30,40,50 minutes. From this study, the highest value of efficiency in absorbing Fe metal ions was 92.97% at 50 minutes of irradiation, and for the absorption of Mg metal ions was 95.69% at 50 minutes of irradiation. This shows that the longer the irradiation time used, the better the absorption efficiency obtained. FTIR test results showed the presence of groups, O-H, C-H, and O=C=O. The results of the SEM test showed that the voids that were empty before adsorption were filled with metal ions during the conditions after adsorption

Understanding the nucleation and evolution of microdefects in solid bodies is important to ensure the reliability and safety of critical structures and to identify their strength and deformation resources. In numerical modeling, failure zones can be represented as areas with significantly underestimated rigid characteristics by analogy with the method of variable elastic parameters used in solving the boundary-value problems of the theory of plasticity. However, the formal application of numerical algorithms of plasticity does not always lead to an adequate description of failure processes especially in elastic-brittle bodies. This paper considers some aspects of the numerical simulation of failure processes, such as    the calculation of a stress-strain state after reducing the rigidity of finite elements under constant boundary conditions by organizing an appropriate iteration procedure, and the selection of the maximum number of finite elements fractured per iteration, the value of a loading step, and the discretization degree of the computational domain. The influence of the above aspects on the results of failure simulation is illustrated by comparing the numerical solutions to the problem of deformation of the strip made of elastic-brittle material with the edge stress concentrator, which were obtained by different algorithms. The loading diagrams were plotted, and the implementation of the post-critical stage at the macro level was demonstrated. Failure kinetics was analyzed for different variants of implementation of the iterative procedure and at a variable number of elements fractured per iteration. It has been found that, in order to get an accurate description of deformation and failure processes, the automatic selection of a loading step seems to be more reasonable. Analysis has indicated that the discretization degree of the computational domain has a strong impact on the modeling results. This suggests that the finite element size should correspond to a certain strength constant of a material having the dimensions of length.
