Authors: شيماء ناصر رضا
Published: November 2023

History: Increased oxidative stress and decreased antioxidant are linked to diabetes type 2 Diabetes In diabetic people, vitamin E administration lowers oxidative stress. We aimed to gauge the amount of this vitamin using these techniques:By planning the current study, patients will be able to evaluate its impact on patient-controlled diabetes. This descriptive and cross-sectional research, which involved 186 individuals with type 2 diabetes, was conducted. Patients were put into two groups1 depending on whether their HbA1C levels were less than or greater than 7 (measured using the HPLC technique), as well as the levels of TG, cholesterol, HDL, and Cr. A check list with questions about each patient's age and information related to their measured vitamin levels was created.

У 1920-і рр. формування архітектурно-містобудівних концепцій в СРСР проходило у переклику з основними соціальними ідеями архітектурно-містобудівної практики Заходу у такій послідовності: некритичне запозичення західних буржуазних моделей («місто-сад»), спроби соціальної інноватики, натхненні класикою утопічного соціалізму (будинок-комуна як перевтілення фаланстеру); конструювання нових функціонально-просторових моделей як засобів реалізації соціальної доктрини (житлові комбінати); соціально-економічне винахідництво в контексті галузевого планування (соцмісто). Описано функціонально-просторову структуру житлових комплексів. Наведено їх типологічне розподілення та класифікацію. Практична перевірка моделей, що створювалися на кожному з етапів, ставала стимулом для нових пошуків.

Meta-iCVIs: Ensemble Validity Metrics for Concise Labeling of Correct, Under- or Over-Partitioning in Streaming Clustering
Authors: Melton Niklas , Petrenko Sasha , Wunsch Donald
Published: November 2023

Understanding the performance and validity of clustering algorithms is both challenging and crucial, particularly when clustering must be done online. Until recently, most validation methods have relied on batch calculation and have required considerable human expertise in their interpretation. Improving real-time performance and interpretability of cluster validation, therefore, continues to be an important theme in improving unsupervised learning. Building upon previous work on incremental cluster validity indices (iCVIs), this paper introduces the Meta-iCVI as a tool for explainable and concise labeling of partition quality in online clustering. Some iCVIs are better at detecting under-partition; others at over-partition. Combining them was hypothesized to improve cluster validation analysis. Experiments were conducted on generalized synthetic and real-world data sets to demonstrate the efficacy and application of this method.

Results of 100% accuracy were achieved in labeling partition quality on real-world data sets including MNIST and FLIR ADAS, demonstrating that the Meta-iCVI is a powerful and efficient tool for classifying partition quality in a variety of conditions. Its introduction should empower new and more efficient streaming clustering techniques. Additionally, we believe this to be the first implementation of an ensemble iCVI metric and the first time iCVI validation performance has been evaluated on randomized sample presentation.
The Artin Hasse Exponential and the p-adics
Authors: Kukkapalli Niyathi
Published: November 2023

In 1928, the Artin-Hasse Exponential E(x) was created and it’s considered an analogue of the exponential function that comes from infinite products. It also has applications in formal group schemes and is studied in the p-adic number system. In this paper, fundamental results about the field of the p-adic rationals, Qp, like completion, are proven while smaller propositions are left to the reader. The integrality of E(x) is shown using Dwork’s Lemma and extensions of the Artin Hasse exponential are further discussed.
ACOUSTIC CHARACTERISTICS OF ROAD SURFACES

Published: November 2023

The article is focused on the tyre/road noise and vibration measurements of the motorway network in the Czech Republic between 2012 and 2020. Three different surfaces were measured, namely a conventional stone mastic asphalt pavement (SMA 11S) and two cement concrete pavements with different treatments – burlap drag and exposed aggregate. A basic statistical analysis of the noise values in different years after laying was performed. Cement concrete treated by burlap drag method has lower noise values than SMA 11S. This is to be expected as burlap drag method is considered a low-noise cement concrete treatment. However, it has worse skid resistance properties and so the exposed aggregate cement concrete (EACC) began to be used. SMA 11S and EACC have very similar noise levels in all years tested, suggesting that they behave acoustically in the same way. Vibrations were investigated during field measurements with an accelerometer mounted on the CPX trailer. The noise and vibration results could thus be compared with each other. There is a positive correlation between them.

Published: November 2023

Fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE) is one of the rare causes of acute spinal cord infarction. We report the case of a previously healthy 16-year-old adolescent with a presentation suggestive of this condition. A few hours after lifting heavy objects, he developed sudden paraplegia. On examination, he had flaccid areflexic paraplegia, and thermoalgic anesthesia below the level of the D4 dermatome. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine confirmed the diagnosis of spinal infarction, FCE was retained as a likely cause after eliminating other differential diagnoses. Although FCE is rare, it should be kept as one of the differential diagnoses of an acute neurological deficit of the spinal cord.

Authors: Uddin Md. Nasir , Ghosh Dipankar , Hoque Saiful , Sarker Asit Chandra
Published: November 2023

Background: Meningiomas, common intracranial tumors originating from meningeal cells, critically impact patient outcomes. Their histologic grade influences recurrence risk and treatment decisions, including radiation therapy. Identifying advanced-grade meningiomas via pre-operative MRI is vital for surgical planning, reducing complications, and guiding adjuvant therapies. Objective: To investigate the correlation between pre-operative MRI features and histopathological grade in supratentorial meningiomas. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from July 2019 to December 2020 at the Department of Neurosurgery of Dhaka Medical College and Hospital. A total of 43 patients with supratentorial meningiomas underwent resection and were analyzed in terms of neuroimaging features of pre-operative MRI. The relationships between MRI features and WHO histopathological grade were analyzed and scored quantitatively. Results: The mean age of the study population was 37±11.86 (SD) years. Male female ratio was 1:2.7. Main clinical presentation was headache (90.7%). The most common location was convexity meningioma (37.2%). Out of all patients, high, grade and low-grade meningioma were diagnosed by MRI, 9 (20.93%) and 34 (79.09%), respectively; on the other hand, high, grade and low-grade meningiomas diagnosed by histopathology 7 (16.3%) and 36 (83.7%) respectively. A positive correlation was found between MRI grading and histopathological grading of supratentorial meningiomas and statistical significance (Spearman rho-0.547, p-value <0.001). A significant association was also observed between MRI grading and histopathological grading of supratentorial meningiomas (p-value 0.002). Unclear tumor brain interface, capsular enhancement, and irregular tumor margin in the MRI were identified factors in predicting advanced histopathological grade of meningiomas as p-values 0.002, 0.008, and 0.001, respectively. Conclusion: This scoring approach may be useful for neurosurgeons ...

Published: November 2023

Post-covid19 necrotising vasculitis is a recently introduced pathological entity, representing one of the rare extra-respiratory covid 19 infections that can threaten vital and functional prognosis. Our series included 5 children, three girls and two boys. The average age of our patients was 6 years. The median time between exposure to the SARS Cov2 virus and the onset of clinical symptoms was 4.5 weeks. The clinical expression of post-covid vasculitis was polymorphic, including mainly skin lesions with cyanosis in 60% and necrotic purpura in 40% of cases. Cardiac anomalies were noted in only one patient presenting myocarditis with pulmonary arterial hypertension. No renal or ocular anomalies were observed in any of our patients. The PCR COVID 19 was positive in only one patient, associated to positive SARS Cov2 IgM and IgG serology. The other four patients had only positive IgG serology. The diagnosis of necrotising vasculitis was confirmed by histological study of skin biopsies. On the basis of all the clinical, biological, radiological and histological criteria, the diagnosis of acute necrotising vasculitis post SARS COV 2 infection was set, since all the biologic tests were normal apart from the recent coronavirus infection. Our patients received medical treatment including oral corticosteroids and anticoagulants, with a good clinical and biological outcome, except for two children who underwent amputation of both legs.

UTILIZATION OF SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY TO MITIGATE CLIMATE CHANGE AND ITS MAIN CHALLENGES
Authors: R. D. Pangestu
Published: November 2023

In tackling the increasing adverse effects of climate change, the significance of sustainable technologies cannot be overemphasized. To comprehensively assess the gravity of the climate predicament and appraise the effectiveness of sustainable technological innovations, this study highlights the urgent necessity for joint ventures aimed at surmounting barricades inhibiting the smooth integration of these technologies in diverse sectors. Disturbingly, the findings of this investigation illustrate a notable upsurge in the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, which can be attributed to economic undertakings, industrial activities, energy consumption, and policies, all of which compound the global climate crisis. Renewable energy sources are becoming increasingly important in the fight against global warming. Carbonization, which releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, is largely to blame for exacerbating the problem. This process has had devastating effects on ecosystems and biodiversity. To combat these effects, we need to transition away from using fossil fuels and towards using renewable energy sources. However, operational challenges in integrating renewable energy into existing electricity networks, coupled with a lack of public awareness and education about renewable energy, pose significant obstacles to widespread adoption.

Restauration d’une rivière périurbaine : la Saleine sur la commune de Crest
Authors: PEZET Florent , WLODARCZYK Antoine , LAFFORGUE Michel , LEBLOIS Solange
Published: November 2023

La Saleine, affluent en rive droite de la Drôme, traverse la commune de Crest en zone périurbaine. Dans le secteur de travaux, le cours d’eau présentait des écosystèmes très dégradés. Le lit rectifié et endigué par le passé présentait un substrat et des faciès homogènes. Les berges raides et végétalisées par des espèces non rivulaires ne permettaient pas l’établissement d’écosystèmes fonctionnels et leurs connexions. La berge en rive gauche formait une digue protégeant une partie aval qui s’ouvrait sur un grand délaissé en prairie, un vaste bassin de stockage des eaux pluviales puis sur un tissu périurbain composé d’une zone artisanale et d’habitats épars. Les travaux engagés ont permis de retrouver une gestion apaisée des eaux pluviales et fluviales en crue ainsi qu’un fonctionnement efficace du corridor écologique attenant à la rivière. Sur un linéaire de 600 mètres, la digue en rive gauche est désormais effacée et l’intégralité du lit est restaurée. L’espace disponible restauré et l’abaissement des pentes de berges ont permis de créer une dynamique de reconquête des milieux aquatiques et rivulaires. Afin de gérer à la fois les périodes de crues et d’étiages, différents niveaux de débordement ont été créés. Un lit d’étiage qui rend possible la vie aquatique tout au long de l’année s’imbrique dans un lit mineur connectant les écosystèmes et les premiers débordements viennent inonder une vaste prairie d’une trentaine de mètres de largeur. Les abords du cours d’eau ont été plantés en végétation rivulaire tandis que les zones les plus éloignées, à près de 30 mètres, présentent une végétation caractéristique de prairies plus sèches. L’élargissement du cours d’eau permet une gestion efficace des plus hautes eaux par un ralentissement des écoulements et un étalement de la lame d’eau. Les plus fortes crues sont gérées par un modelé paysagé et arboré intégré à la topographie du projet. La restauration du lit mineur et la mise en place d’éléments de diversification en bois morts issus des travaux tendent à améliorer l’oxygénation du cours d’eau ainsi que les échanges hyporhéiques concourant à une amélioration de la qualité de l’eau de ce cours d’eau périurbain. Les travaux de restauration de la Saleine à Crest ont ainsi permis, par l’ouverture et la requalification du milieu, une gestion conjuguée de l’eau en quantité et qualité.

Mieux comprendre l’écoulement des boues digérées : rôle de la viscosité et de la température
Authors: CHARLES Antoine , RIBEIRO Thierry , OLIVEIRA Marcos , AZIMI Sam , ROCHER Vincent , BAUDEZ Jean-Christophe , BAHRANI S. Amir
Published: November 2023

L’objectif de cet article est de proposer des protocoles de caractérisation thermo-rhéologique des boues digérées pour réaliser un dimensionnement pertinent des installations de traitement en station de traitement des eaux usées (STEU). Pour cela, tous les aspects rhéologiques pouvant impacter l’écoulement des boues dans les composants hydrauliques sont abordés, notamment le seuil d’écoulement, le comportement rhéofluidifiant, la thixotropie, la viscoélasticité ou encore la dépendance thermique des caractéristiques rhéologiques. Un protocole de détermination de chacune de ces propriétés rhéologiques adapté aux boues digérées issues de STEU est détaillé. Les lignes directrices proposées ici se basent sur les retours d’expériences de campagnes de caractérisation menées en laboratoire sur des boues digérées prélevées en STEU. Les résultats des caractérisations menées grâce à l’application des protocoles décrits confirment la présence d’un seuil d’écoulement et d’un caractère rhéofluidifiant pour des boues digérées issues de STEU. Ils montrent également que dans le cas d’une boue digérée, la thermo-rhéologie peut être simplifiée, car la thixotropie, la viscoélasticité et la dépendance thermique ont un impact négligeable sur l’écoulement de la boue digérée dans les conditions typiques des procédés en STEU.
Analyse risque/vulnérabilité au changement climatique impactant la disponibilité des ressources hydriques, wilaya de Relizane (Bas-Cheliff, Algérie)
Authors: KRIM Hassan , HASSANI Idriss
Published: November 2023

Le changement climatique est un enjeu global majeur, qui est de plus en plus prégnant sur la scène internationale. Pour le cas de l’Algérie, les projections climatiques soulignent un accroissement substantiel de la température dès 2020, avec une diminution significative des précipitations et une évaporation intensifiée, conduisant à un risque accru du stress hydrique. À cet égard, de nombreuses études ont montré comment le secteur des ressources en eau est affecté par ce phénomène, et parmi elles l'analyse isque/vulnérabilité (ARV). Le travail proposé dans cet article est une tentative pour la structuration d’une chaîne d’impacts d’analyse du risque et de vulnérabilité (ARV) au changement climatique relative à la disponibilité de la ressource en eau dans la wilaya de Relizane (Bassin du Bas-Chéliff – NW Algérie). L’objectif se limite à deux premières phases de la méthodologie appliquée au secteur de l'eau.

Les « solutions fondées sur la nature » (SFN) ont été définies et promues à l’échelle internationale, et leur déploiement dans différents contextes institutionnels demeure encore peu étudié. Nous proposons dans cet article d’étudier la déclinaison de ce concept à différentes échelles, en France et aux États-Unis. Grâce à une recherche ancrée en sciences sociales dans le cadre d’un projet international, nous étudions la définition et la mise en oeuvre de SFN pour les politiques de gestion des inondations dans les deux pays, aux échelles nationale/fédérale, et locales. Nos résultats préliminaires montrent qu’en France, le concept semble très lié à la définition de l’Union internationale pour la conservation de la nature (UICN) et est surtout soutenu par les acteurs du monde de la conservation de la nature. Au contraire, le concept semble encore peu approprié par les acteurs de la gestion des inondations. En revanche, aux États-Unis, c’est l’organisation The Nature Conservancy (TNC) qui promeut le concept. Le concept semble davantage mobilisé par les politiques publiques liées à la gestion des inondations. Son appropriation semble néanmoins l’éloigner de l’ambition de préservation de la biodiversité.
Analysing Legal Challenges of Bangladesh Police for Achieving Polycentric Security Governance (PSG)
Authors: - Md Emran Ahmmed
Published: November 2023

To manage the ‘common-pool resources,’ the concept of the ‘polycentric governance’ was adopted; now emerging as one of the most popular and effective governance systems for ensuring proper utility and accountability of public goods and services. A few years ago, Bangladesh Police introduced 'Community Policing' and recently initiated 'Beat Policing' to enhance public relations and easy access to police services. These initiatives resemble a 'Plural Community' polycentric governance approach, but the lack of legal basis makes it questionable. Therefore, this research aims to determine what legal challenges may arise when introducing polycentric security governance based on the existing laws of the Bangladesh Police. Through this qualitative research, an attempt has been made to find out the existing legal challenges of the Bangladesh Police by analyzing the Police Act-1861, Police Regulations of Bengal (PRB), and 8 (Eight) Metropolitan Police Acts. The results of this research show that achieving polycentric security governance is not possible through the existing laws in several areas, which will emerge as challenges in implementation. To avoid such legal hurdles, it is necessary to amend, modify, and update those laws. For this reason, some recommendations have been added for eliminating the existing legal challenges and setting directions for further research at the end.
Lithium and Cesium Doping on the Properties of ZTS Crystals (Tris (Thiourea) Zinc (II) Sulphate)
Authors: - Dr. P. Girija
Published: November 2023

The influence of alkali metals (Cs and Li) doping on the properties and crystal growth of tris(thiourea)zinc(II)sulphate crystals by slow evaporation solution growth technique at 30ºC has been investigated. Each metals as dopant incorporate into the crystal lattice even at its low concentrations is well confirmed by energy dispersive X – ray spectroscopy (EDS). In the powder X –ray diffraction (XRD), high intense peaks are observed for all doped specimens due to stress developed in the crystal because of doping when compared to pure one. Single crystal XRD reveals a nominal increase in the cell parameter values of the doped samples compared to pure. Presence of each alkali metal (Li, Cs) quantitatively is confirmed by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) technique. It is interesting to observe the enhancement of fluorescence intensity of pure ZTS by the dopant in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The grown crystals are also characterized by FT-IR, UV-Visible and TG/DSC methods. The second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency, an essential character required for the single crystals to identify the non-linear optical (NLO) property, was performed by kurtz powder technique.
2.The characterization results of influence of various concentration of Mn (II) ion on the properties and crystalline perfection of ammoniumdihydrogenphosphate (ADP) crystal are presented. Using water as a solvent pure, 1 and 20 mol % of Mn (II) ion in the form manganese (II) sulphate added ADP crystals are prepared by slow evaporation solution growth technique (SEST). Well faceted grown crystals are characterised by different experimental techniques. The presence of Mn (II) in the doped specimens is confirmed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) technique. High resolution X- ray diffraction (HRXRD) study of the doped samples when compared with the pure ADP crystal reveals interesting features. In the single crystal XRD studies, the dopants have not altered the lattice parameter values and the crystal system of pure ADP. Reduction in the intensity of peaks is observed in the powder XRD of all the doped samples. It is interesting to enhancement of fluorescence intensity of pure ADP by the dopants in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The surface morphology of the crystals is studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The grown crystals are also characterized by FT-IR, UV-Vis and TG/DTA methods. The second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency, which is an essential character required for the single crystals to identify the nonlinear optical (NLO) property, is performed by Kurtz powder technique. Increasing in concentrations of dopant enhance the SHG efficiency of ADP crystal.

Published: November 2023

Artificial Intelligence (AI), a term introduced by John McCarthy in 1955, pertains to the capacity of machines to acquire knowledge and apply it to perform a range of cognitive tasks, such as language processing, reasoning, learning, and decision-making, essentially emulating human behavior. Machine Learning (ML), a term coined by Arthur Samuel in 1959, is a subset of AI that equips systems with the ability to autonomously learn and improve from experience without explicit programming. ML is instrumental in developing computer programs that can access data and autonomously learn from it. The incorporation of AI components into imaging machines can alleviate the workload and enhance efficiency. Pediatric dentistry benefits from various applications of artificial intelligence, and this paper provides an overview of these applications.
Resilience and Resistance in Athol Fugard’s Play No Good Friday
Authors: - T.Senthil Veera Kumari
Published: November 2023

Athol Fugard, acclaimed as the greatest South African playwright in the English-speaking world, is best known for his political and penetrating plays opposing the system of apartheid. In his play No-Good Friday (1958) he presents the burning zeal of an incipient black revolutionary against the exploitation faced by the blacks. At the surface level, the play appears to be a mere representation of the conditions of the blacks; but at deeper levels, it records the helplessness of the blacks in the face of exploitation by their own fellow men during the conditions of the apartheid. Fugard presents the oppressive politics working on the life of the people of Sophia town in various forms by portraying the complex and evolving nature of submissiveness in the face of oppression and how the characters struggle to find a balance between survival and resistance. The play ultimately underscores the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of resistance in the face of oppressive systems.
Relevance of English as a potential Global Language
Authors: - Bineet Kaur Chandok
Published: November 2023

Abstract : Globe consists of one hundred ninety five countries, and the language which is becoming or achieving the status of the global language should be recognized by each and every country then only it will be the genuine global status. How a language bears the weight of becoming a global language, is that particular language spoken by everyone who belongs to this world? It wouldn’t be wrong if we call English as the dominating language in the twenty first century because wherever we go everything is in English, even the traffic road directions are written in English. Neither everyone on this earth speaks in English nor every country recognizes English as an official language. Then, which force is pushing English towards the status of the global language? And who decides the relevance of any particular language at a global level? For how long will a particular language be recognized as a potential global language?

This research holds significant importance in sustainable agricultural development in West Kalimantan, where the integration of cattle farming within oil palm plantations is an innovation that can impact farmers' economy, development, and social needs. The study was conducted in 2022, involving 130 respondents and employing both descriptive analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) methods. The analysis results reveal that farmers' motivation is influenced by internal and external factors such as experience, cosmopolitanism, external support, the availability of facilities, market guarantees, ease of integration, and perceived benefits from integration. This research provides a profound understanding of these dynamics, which can assist in designing more effective policies and strategies to promote and support the integration of cattle farming within oil palm plantations. Consequently, this research has the potential to significantly contribute to sustainable agricultural development and rural growth in Meliau District.
Tanulásértelmezés és didaktika a Budapesti Gazdasági Egyetem pedagógusképzéseiben
Authors: Farkas Julianna
Published: November 2023

A Budapesti Gazdasági Egyetemen (BGE) két szakon folyik pedagógusképzés, a szakoktató alap- és a közgazdász-tanár mesterszakon, amelyekre jelentős hatással vannak az utóbbi évtizedben tapasztalható társadalmi, gazdasági kihívások, a digitalizáció miatt bekövetkezett változások, valamint a szakképző intézmények tanulói populációjának változásai. Kifejezett elvárás a szakmai pedagógusokkal szemben, hogy tisztában legyenek a legújabb trendekkel, ezért, válaszul ezekre a kihívásokra, a képzések fejlesztését és a tanárjelöltek felkészítését elsősorban a konstruktivista tanuláselméletre, gyakorlatias megközelítésre, a projektoktatásra, a saját tapasztalaton alapuló tanulásra és az előzetes tudás bevonására alapoztuk. Ezeket a gyakorlatban workshop jellegű tanórákon, konkrét nevelési-oktatási helyzetek, esetek megbeszélésén és a hallgatói együttműködés, tudásmegosztás erősítésén keresztül érvényesítjük. A didaktikát külön tantárgyként is oktatjuk, de a didaktikai ismeretek gyakorlatba ültetését segítjük azzal, hogy egyes témaköreit különböző tantárgyakba ágyazva is tárgyaljuk. Törekvésünk, hogy a tanárképző oktatók tevékenysége az online térben is hatékony legyen és mintául szolgáljon a leendő tanárok számára. A képzésfejlesztés folyamatos feladatot jelent intézményünk, csapatunk számára, ezért jelenleg is több, hatékonyságnövelő változtatást mérlegelünk.

Nincs, vagy kéretik, hogy jelentkezzék a recenzensnél e sorok olvasásakor, ha mégis lenne Magyarországon pedagógia szakot végző, végzett vagy tanárjelölt, aki vizsgára ne jegyzetelte volna sűrűre az eddig elérhető kötetek alig több mint ötszáz oldalnyi (lehetőleg könyvtári, helyben olvasásra ítélt) lapjait; neveléstudomány vagy tanítószakos hallgató, aki ne találkozott volna vele, pedagógiai szakember – oktató, kutató, fejlesztő, aki ne olvasta volta, vagy netán ne lenne a polcán egy példány a „Falus didaktikából.” Ideidéződik egy eset, amikor egy tanárjelölt hallgató egy alkalommal kérdésre emelkedett, nincs-e valami olyan könyv, „amiben az egész pedagógia benne van”. Utólagos válaszunk számára, ha netán olvasná ezt az ismertetőt, és még emlékszik az incidensre, hogy A didaktika kézikönyve olyan.

Benne van az „egész” pedagógia.
Numerical Simulations for Electro-Osmotic Blood Flow of Magnetic Sutterby Nanofluid with Modified Darcy's Law
Authors: Sfina Nourreddine , Ibrahim M. G.
Published: November 2023

Owing to the considerable significance of the combination of modified law of Darcy and electric fields in biomedicine applications like drug design, and pumping of blood in heart and lung devices; so, numerical and physiological analysis on electro-osmotic peristaltic pumping of magnetic Sutterby Nanofluid is considered. Such a fluid model has not been studied before in peristaltic. The applied system of differential equations is obtained by using controls of low Reynolds number and long wavelength. Simulations for a given system are counted using two high-quality techniques, the Finite difference technique (FDM) and the Generalized Differential transform method (Generalized DTM). Vital physical parameters effects on the profiles of velocity, temperature, and Nanoparticle concentration have schemed in two different states of Sutterby fluid, the first is dilatant fluid at β<0 and Pseudo plastic fluid at β>0. A comparison between the prior results computed by FDM and Generalized-DTM and literature results are given in nearest published results have been made, and found to be excellent. The discussion puts onward a crucial observation, that the velocity of blood flow can be organized by adaptable magnetic field strength. A drug delivery system is considered one of the significant applications of such a fluid model.
Design Guidelines for Low Power Embedded Systems using Low Power Electronics
Authors: Swami Yashu
Published: November 2023

The design of Low Power Embedded Systems (LPES) and IoT products may include a variety of power management techniques, or they may incorporate sophisticated on-chip capabilities that assist in reduced power usage. The power management and low power consumption of embedded systems are also enabled by complex algorithms, and every Low Power System (LPS) may require a mix of approaches to avoid using extra battery power. There are several strategies we may use when creating an LPES that must be extremely power efficient while simultaneously offering the necessary degree of computational capability. It all depends on the design specifications that must be met. Then, if at all feasible, choose the appropriate low-power components from Low Power Electronics (LPE). After studying and reviewing multiple LPES real-time projects, we compiled a list of a few strategies we may use to approach low-power design and consumption for embedded systems. Following the analysis of numerous LPES real-time projects, we came up with a list of a few approaches to low-power design for embedded systems using LPE. There are additional benefits of LPES design. Less heat is generated through LPES, which is better for the environment. For 1000 LPES devices, one watt of power saved per device equals one KWH i.e. we can save 1 unit of electricity. Design with low power increases the component and system reliability. The embedded system's operating life is enhanced. In many instances, LPES designs may result in a reduction in production costs. The LPE components chosen are more affordable and inexpensive. Hence, the low-wattage power supply, LPES design is easier and less expensive.
New hosts and diagnostic characteristics of Orobanche crenata (Orobanchaceae) in Egypt
Authors: Mohamed Ibrahim Abd el-wahab , Hassan Mona , Aboulela Mostafa
Published: November 2023

The holo-parasitic weed Orobanche crenata Forrsk. is a threat to economically important legumes and vegetables in Mediterranean countries, including Egypt. The crenate broomrape attacks several wild and cultivated plant species, and documentation of new hosts of the parasite is always required. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first report of parasitism of the crenate broomrape on two ornamental species, Arctotis fastuosa Jacq. and Callistephus chinensis (L.) Nees. (Asteraceae). We also recorded for the first time its parasitism on the wild weeds (Ammi majus L., Lactuca serriola L., and Melilotus indicus (L.) All.) and the cultivated plant species (Carthamus tinctorius L. and Tropaeolum majus L.) from Egypt. The occurrence of O. crenata parasitism was confirmed by the attachment of its haustoria to the roots of host plants. The incidence of crenate broomrape disease was estimated for the seven species. The study also provides a morphological description of the polymorphic O. crenata on the samples from Egypt and determines the most useful characteristics for its easier identification in the field.
Cooption of opposition parties in Russian regional parliaments: analysis and dynamics
Authors: Gorokhov Alexander
Published: November 2023

The analysis of the representation (or cooption) of opposition parties in regional parliaments remains an urgent problem, especially in the context of the current 2018–2022 electoral cycle. Studies of representation tend to focus on the results of the “party in power” or the analysis of all legislative assemblies as a whole, ignoring the dynamics of these processes as well as their regional dimension, which is variable and unstable. The study is aimed at generalization and analysis the results of the cooption of parliamentary opposition parties in context of representation in senior positions, both in the context of the analysis of all electoral campaigns from 2003–2022, and to understand the future prospects of the parties during the federal electoral cycle.
Using statistical and comparative analysis methods, it was shown that the representation of opposition parliamentary parties is closely related to ability to negotiate with the “party of power”, and that this representation is limited in all the positions and regions analyzed. It was also found that the dynamics of representation is largely unstable and only reaches its diversity for the posts of heads of committees of regional parliaments. The analysis allows not only to assess the presence of leadership positions in the main political opposition parties, but also to assess their dynamics in the regional context and in the context of electoral cycles. These conclusions allow us to make assumptions about the further potential dynamics of party success at the regional level in terms of pressing contradictions and peculiarities.
Giving time a chance in the midsession reversal task
Authors: Soares Catarina , Pinto Carlos , Machado Armando
Published: November 2023

The midsession reversal task involves a simultaneous discrimination between stimuli S1 and S2. Choice of S1 but not S2 is reinforced during the first 40 trials, and choice of S2 but not S1 is reinforced during the last 40 trials. Trials are separated by a constant intertrial interval (ITI). Pigeons learn the task seemingly by timing the moment of the reversal trial. Hence, most of their errors occur around trial 40 (S2 choices before trial 41 and S1 choices after trial 40). It has been found that when the ITI is doubled on a test session, the reversal trial is halved, a result consistent with timing. However, inconsistent with timing, halving the ITI on a test session did not double the reversal trial. The asymmetry of ITI effects could be due to the intrusion of novel cues during testing, cues that preempt the timing cue. To test this hypothesis, we ran two types of tests after the regular training in the midsession reversal task, one with S1 and S2 choices always reinforced, and another with S1 always reinforced but S2 reinforced only after 20 trials when the ITI doubled or 40 trials when the ITI halved. For most pigeons, performance was consistent with timing both when the ITI doubled and when it was halved, but some pigeons appeared to follow strategies based on counting or on reinforcement contingencies.
