Investigation on the Properties of HPC Exposed to Elevated Temperatures
Authors: Aidoud Assia , Benouis Abdelhalim
Published: August 2023

When concrete is subjected to elevated temperatures, a destruction of its constituent hydration products can be occurred. This destruction implies a weakening of the material degradation of its mechanical properties such as stiffness and strength. The elevated temperature generates significant fluid pressure, leading to damage it and also causing breakdown of the concrete, which is characterized by the deteriorations of the hydrated material.This study focuses the evolution of residual properties of three High performance concrete (HPC). The specimens (16×32) cm2 were subjected to different temperatures: 200°C, 400°C and 600°C with a rate of 2°C/min followed by a stage of three hours at the target temperature and then cooling to room temperature. The evaluation of different properties was evident compared to room temperature (20°C), with a maximum drop of compressive strength is of 79%. The loss of tensile strength is 62%. Losses masses and decreases dynamic elastic modulus are 6% and 89% respectively. It was observed an explosive burst of one of HPC between 400°C and 600°C.

Integrity and Privacy through Authentication Key Exchange Protocols for Distributed Systems
Authors: Usharani B.
Published: August 2023

Networking is the practice of connecting several computing devices together in order to share resources.In real world, attacks via force and fraud are privacy (unauthorized release of information), Integrity (tampering with data), Service (denial of service).The goals are disallow unauthorized access, allow authorized access, resist DOS attacks .In recent years, many efficient AKE protocols have been proposed to achieve user privacy and integrity in the communications. A communication model is a representation where there are a large number of clients accessing multiple remote and distributed storage devices in parallel. Authenticated key exchange (AKE) protocol allows a user and a server to authenticate each other and generate a session key for the later communications. This paper focuses on how to exchange key materials and establish parallel secure sessions between the clients and the storage devices in the Network in an efficient and scalable manner.
Hand Gesture Recognition Using Principal Component Analysis
Authors: Kumar Sunil , Srivastava Tanu , Singh Raj Shree
Published: August 2023

Nowadays actions are increasingly being handled in electronic ways, instead of physical interaction. From earlier times biometrics is used in the authentication of a person. It recognizes a person by using a human trait associated with it like eyes (by calculating the distance between the eyes) and using hand gestures, fingerprint detection, face detection etc. Advantages of using these traits for identification are that they uniquely identify a person and cannot be forgotten or lost. These are unique features of a human being which are being used widely to make the human life simpler. Hand gesture recognition system is a powerful tool that supports efficient interaction between the user and the computer. The main moto of hand gesture recognition research is to create a system which can recognise specific hand gestures and use them to convey useful information for device control. This paper presents an experimental study over the feasibility of principal component analysis in hand gesture recognition system. PCA is a powerful tool for analyzing data. The primary goal of PCA is dimensionality reduction. Frames are extracted from the Sheffield KInect Gesture (SKIG) dataset. The implementation is done by creating a training set and then training the recognizer. It uses Eigen space by processing the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the images in training set. Euclidean distance with the threshold value is used as similarity metric to recognize the gestures. The experimental results show that PCA is feasible to be used for hand gesture recognition system.
Managing the Data Effectively Using Object Relational Data Store

Published: August 2023

The collection of interrelated data, usually referred to as the database, contains information relevant to an enterprise. The primary goal of Database Management System is to provide a way to store and retrieve database information that is both convenient and efficient. Management of data involves both defining structures for storage of information and providing mechanisms for the manipulation of information. A relational database consists of a collection of relations, each of which is assigned a unique name. The relational database contains a set of objects used to store, access, and manage data. The set of objects includes tables, views, indexes, aliases, distinct types, functions, procedures, sequences, and packages Managing the data effectively using Object Relational Data Store (ORDS) is a Object Oriented Relational Database. It provides object oriented enabled features. It ensures the safety of information stored, despite system crashes or attempts at unauthorized access. If data to be shared among several users, the system will avoid possible anomalous results. It is designed to perform very well with most typical SQL operations.

Role of Iroquois homeobox 4 (IRX4) isoforms in prostate cancer
Authors:   , Vitharanage Achala
Published: August 2023

The Iroquois (IRX) transcription factors belong to the homeobox protein family and have vital physiological functions in humans. Recent studies show that they are linked to human cancers, particularly Iroquois-class homeodomain protein 4 (IRX4) has been implicated in prostate cancer. In this thesis, four protein isoforms derived from alternative splicing of IRX4 were discovered in prostate cancer patients. They were found to have differential roles and mechanisms of action in prostate cancer pathogenesis. Additionally, the expression levels of identified IRX4 isoforms were evaluated in prostate cancer patient samples for their potential diagnostic and prognostic significance.
Poder totalitario y libertad de conciencia en el primer franquismo: relaciones entre el Opus Dei y la Falange

Los campos de concentración y exterminio en el Estado Independiente de Croacia: guerra y genocidio, 1941-1945
Authors: Fernández Pasalodos Arnau , Rodrigo Sánchez Javier
Published: August 2023

Resumen. Las investigaciones realizadas en la historiografía española sobre los campos de concentración y exterminio establecidos por los diferentes regímenes fascistas entre los años treinta y cuarenta han centrado su atención en los casos de Alemania y España. No obstante, en esa misma cronología y en el marco de la Segunda Guerra Mundial hubo otros espacios europeos en los que los nuevos poderes crearon toda una red concentracionaria propia, tal y como ocurrió en el Estado Independiente de Croacia. Entre 1941 y 1945 el régimen fascista liderado por Ante Pavelić y la Ustaša estableció más de una decena de campos de concentración y de exterminio para encerrar a hombres, mujeres y niños por motivos étnicos, religiosos y políticos, de manera que la red concentracionaria se convirtió en el epicentro del genocidio perpetrado contra los serbios, judíos y gitanos. Sin ir más lejos, estos campos también fueron utilizados en el marco de la guerra civil y de la guerra antipartisana desplegada contra las partidas lideradas por Tito, al mismo tiempo que se utilizaron para encerrar a cualquier disidente político, ya fuera real, potencial o imaginario.
“Pedir permiso”. Cosmopraxis puneña y arte contemporáneo en Salinas Grandes (Noroeste de Argentina)
Authors: Miranda Pérez José María
Published: August 2023

En el verano de 2020 el artista contemporáneo Tomás Saraceno montó Aerocene Pacha en Salinas Grandes (puna de Argentina). El proyecto, inspirado en la cosmovisión andina y los debates alrededor del Antropoceno, fue ideado como una experiencia multidisciplinar y cooperativa que contó con la participación de artistas, ingenieros, aeronautas, sociólogos y las comunidades de la Mesa de la Cuenca de Salinas Grandes y Laguna de Guayatayoc. En este artículo, me voy a detener en las relaciones cosmoterritoriales que emergieron a raíz de la realización de Aerocene Pacha, enfocándome en aquellas que el artista estableció con las comunidades de San Miguel de Colorados, Pozo Colorado y Santuario de Tres Pozos. Mi propuesta es que si bien Saraceno adoptó el concepto andino de Pachamama y su trabajo estuvo marcado por un fuerte diálogo con las comunidades aborígenes, los sentidos, valores y prácticas que movilizó en unos y otros fueron distintos en cada caso. Mostraré que la conexión que el artista impulsó entre ambas pachas puede conceptualizarse como una equivocación. Mientras la pacha de Aerocene descansa sobre el principio de los comunes, la pacha de las comunidades del salar forma parte de una ecología de seres y prácticas que suponen, desean y apuntalan lo no común.
Sobre cosmos y técnica en las transformaciones corporales entre los qom del Gran Chaco sudamericano
Authors: Robledo Emilio
Published: August 2023

En base a una etnografía producida entre 2012 y 2018, en comunidades qom localizadas en el curso medio del río Bermejo en el Gran Chaco sudamericano, exploro la noción de técnica que interviene en artificios mediante los cuales se incorporan cualidades del cosmos en el cuerpo humano. Parto de la idea de que las artes y sus efectos, antes de responder a gradientes evolutivos o a la variabilidad cultural, están vinculadas a articulaciones cosmopolíticas. En la mitología qom los atributos culturales y las artes provienen de un contexto extra social y son adquiridos por los humanos en situaciones contingentes gracias a la agencia de seres no humanos. Esa presunción de exterioridad de las fuentes de conocimiento y habilidades prácticas reaparece en las formas en que se describen las experiencias contemporáneas de adquisición de virtudes para la danza, el canto, la curación, la caza y la oratoria, entre otras. Como en otras zonas de las tierras bajas de Sudamérica, aquí la técnica emerge como un atributo no humano. Estas nociones se apartan de la historicidad contenida en la idea de la tecnología como diacrítico universal del proceso de hominización y del alejamiento de la humanidad del fondo natural. La experiencia de los qom lleva a pensar en la técnica y sus efectos productivos como un acontecimiento que permite describir, más que el modo de concreción de una cultura, la posibilidad de encuentros entre humanos y no humanos, y a través de ello reflexionar sobre las virtudes de los segundos y las carencias de los primeros.
¿Con qué árboles es posible la vida? Paisajes forestales y modos de habitar en el Norte de Mendoza (Argentina), desde tiempos prehispánicos hasta la actualidad
Authors: Mafferra Luis , Amuedo Claudia Gabriela
Published: August 2023

La conformación del paisaje forestal en el norte de Mendoza (Argentina) muestra como concepciones propias de la modernidad se materializaron en una fragmentación entre espacios irrigados y desecados, generando zonas de oasis y desiertos. En este trabajo proponemos mostrar, a través de la segmentación en períodos concretos, como los cambios en las relaciones socioambientales generaron estos paisajes divergentes. Desde el período prehispánico, colonial, y moderno hasta la actualidad, a través de una síntesis de datos antracológicos, históricos y etnográficos. Planteamos que, con el avance de la modernidad, el vínculo con el ambiente es entendido como en constante disputa y domesticación, en lo que el manejo del agua juega un rol fundamental. A esto sumamos tensiones propias generadas entre lo nativo y lo foráneo, ya sean estos humanos o árboles. Enfatizamos el problema de cómo los árboles se enredan en órdenes ambientales, políticos o étnicos (entre otros), para discutir la configuración actual del paisaje en la región. Finalmente, reflexionamos sobre cómo reconocer el carácter histórico de la conformación del paisaje forestal actual, permite comenzar a imaginar alternativas a los desafíos ambientales de la región.
Introducción. Las buenas distancias: conexiones parciales para una antropología de las existencias
Authors: Pazzarelli Francisco , Martínez Medina Santiago
Published: August 2023

La actual crisis ecológica y humanitaria nos ha obligado a observar otras ontologías y composiciones del mundo, abordándolas como inspiraciones o ejemplos. Siempre bajo el riesgo de las trampas de la tolerancia y el utilitarismo académico, los otros mundos y sus verdades se han convertido en interlocutores con los cuales dialogar y generar alianzas frente a los desafíos impuestos a la existencia común. Esta propuesta de número monográfico parte de comprender este panorama como un momento novedoso en la relación con la alteridad. Ya no se trata pues solamente de describir la diferencia como parte de una indagación sobre las posibilidades de lo humano, sino de elaborar un diálogo en el cual muchas de las claves para la supervivencia de todos puedan encontrarse en la diferencia. Claramente los peligros de esta tarea son muchos, y ante ello se impone el cuidado. Nos moviliza entonces la pregunta por cómo hacer ese mundo común sin que ese mundo sea unívoco.

THE LEGIONARY INSURGENCY OF JANUARY 1941 IN BUCHAREST – NEW ARCHIVE DISCLOSURES
Authors:   University of Târgovişte, , History specialization, Iordache Alexandru
Published: August 2023

In the literature of the interwar period and World War II, the severe divide between diverse political conservative trends, including authoritarian conservatism and right wing extremism, had been obvious for some time. In the historiography on the Legionary Rebellion in Romania, as it is frequently termed, of 21-23 January 1941, this perspective was disregarded, despite its considerably explanatory potential. This work takes a novel approach to this topic, analyzing with historical-archival arguments the great clash between two eminently incompatible organizations: one of the elites with authoritarian traditional leanings, and the other revolutionary, intolerant of the old hierarchies and inspired by European fascism, promoting national purification through violence and the annihilation of others. This research will reconsider some of the key notions and assumptions underpinnings the disputes and emphasize a sequence of critical decision-making activities based on unstudied Romanian Secret Service data1. Also, the work involves a critical analysis of the information regarding the legionary insurgency through the lens of interwar intelligence and their presentation to the readers, whether they are specialists or a history enthusiasts, both from a historical, analytical, and especially applied and exemplary perspective.

Environmental Protection in the Field of Human Rights
Authors: Mahmutović Omer , Velić Safet
Published: August 2023

In the field of science, human rights and environmental protection are multidisciplinary fields. Hence different approaches to their interaction. In the context of the historical development of human rights, the right to a healthy environment belongs to the third generation of human rights. Due to the increase in industrialization around the world and the use of technologies which main feature is the easy availability and low cost of raw materials and processes, a number of global environmental problems have appeared (ozone depletion, global warming, climate change, etc.) which required a global response. The previous approaches (Stockholm Conference, etc.) were not enough, a new concept was needed that prevents the emergence of problems. A new concept, called sustainable development, implies economic development without permanent impact on the environment. Through the principle of sustainable development, the last UN concept for environmental protection and improvement of society in all segments was formulated, called Agenda 2030. BiH is a signatory to the agenda, but main driver of progress in the field of environmental protection and human rights is BiH’s aspiration to join the EU. One of the key meeting points of human rights and environmental protection should be the rights of activists for environmental protection, resolving their legal status through a law that will recognize their importance. The EU is specifically working on this, so it is expected that BiH will also make progress in the field of better status of activists for environmental protection, through the process of joining EU.
置疑的寫作者：論賴香吟《翻譯者》的「自反寫作」與失語困境
Authors: 廖紹凱 廖紹凱
Published: August 2023

賴香吟在2017年出版的《翻譯者》被視為是「青春時期的結案報告」嘗試呈現不同的社會與政治事件中的「個人」，然而本文認為貫穿《翻譯者》的是身為「寫作者」的「女性敘述者」的失語困境。因而，本文將從「自反寫作」與失語困境兩個面向切入，討論賴香吟的小說《翻譯者》幾篇小說以及未收錄的〈時手紙〉。本文認為在後設小說的技藝下，賴香吟置疑寫作者身份、寫作（物）與寫作意義之間的關係，導致身為寫作者的「失語困境」以及的自我價值危機。其中，透過女性與寫作者雙重的身份，而以女性經驗打破女性與土地皆為男性拯救之對象的模式。本文將進一步指出，賴香吟小說在高度自反性的策略下，小說中的女性寫作者角色對雙重身份的自反思考，凸顯女性寫作者在差異的經驗與真實之間的掙扎，重新定義了「作者」、「經驗」與「文學性」概念，而呈現出某種敘事美學。

 

The Translator (Lai Hsiang-yin, 2017) is considered the culmination of adolescence. Lai Hsiang-yin attempts to depict the concept of “individual” in various societies and political contexts. However, this paper argues that the aphasia dilemma of the “female narrator” as “the writer” permeates the entire narrative of The Translator. Therefore, this paper aims to examine several novels in The Translator (Lai Hsiang-yin, 2017) and “Time Letter”（時手紙）from the perspectives of “reflexive writing” and the aphasia dilemma. Through Lai Hsiang-yin’s metafictional work, it is believed that she questions the relationship between writer’s identity, the act of writing itself, and the meaning of writing, leading to an aphasia dilemma for the writer and a crisis of self-worth. By assuming the dual identity of the female and the writer, Lai Hsiang-yi breaks away from traditional patterns where females and their land are solely saved by males. Moreover, through the strategic use of reflexivity, the character of the female writer in Lai Hsiang-yin novel reflects upon her own dual identity, emphasizing the struggles of the female writer between different experiences and reality. At the same time, this redefines the idea of “writer”, “experience” and “literariness”, representing a distinct narrative aesthetic.

Authors: Ünlü Simge , Bilici Erdal , Yaşar Lütfiye
Published: August 2023

This study explores the importance of green public relations activities and environmental activism within the framework of the concept of sustainability. Limitation of resources, excessive consumption and environmental destruction are the subject of activist actions of various environmentalists or non-governmental organizations. It is necessary to minimize the reactions arising from these actions with public relations activities and to protect the corporate reputation. Institutions participating in the green movement, which wants a sustainable ecological environment, make claims that they are environmentalists with their public relations campaigns. From time to time, these green discourses also appear as an effort for green laundering. Acordingly, green institutions have had to produce sustainable economic, institutional and environmental policies. In this context, strategic green public relations practices are of great importance in the effective management of sustainability policies of institutions

Особенностью современного периода развития всех отраслей и сфер агропромышленного комплекса является ускорение научно-технического прогресса на основе инновационных процессов. Развитие АПК направлено на наращивание научно-технического потенциала с целью поэтапного снижения зависимости от импорта технологий, технических средств и других ресурсов. Состояние современного агробизнеса весьма нестабильно, что связано, прежде всего, с высокой рискованностью и большой капиталоёмкостью, порождающей низкую экономическую доступность к инновационным продуктам. Зачастую элементарное отсутствие денежных средств не позволяет аграриям наращивать инновации. В сельском хозяйстве инновации охватывают все аспекты производственного цикла по всей цепочке создания добавленной стоимости: от возделывания сельскохозяйственных культур – до взаимодействия с конечными потребителями. Наиболее распространёнными инновациями в сельскохозяйственном производстве являются: технологические, маркетинговые и организационные (более эффективная организация всех управленческих процессов, организация рабочих мест и т. д.). Установлено, что наибольший удельный вес в сельском хозяйстве занимают технологические инновации, на втором месте – организационные, на третьем – маркетинговые.

A feature of the modern period of development of all branches and spheres of the agro-industrial complex is the acceleration of scientific and technological progress based on innovative processes. The development of the agro-industrial complex is aimed at increasing scientific and technical potential in order to gradually reduce dependence on imports of technologies, technical means and other resources. The state of modern agribusiness is very unstable, which is primarily due to high risk and high capital intensity, which generates low economic accessibility to innovative products. Often, the elementary lack of funds does not allow farmers to increase innovation. In agriculture, innovations cover all aspects of the production cycle along the entire value chain: from crop cultivation to interaction with end users. The most common innovations in agricultural production are: technological, marketing and organizational (more efficient organization of all management processes, organization of workplaces, etc.). It is established that technological innovations occupy the largest share in agriculture, organizational innovations take the second place, marketing innovations take the third place.

Chile y Corea del Sur, 1973-1976: Diplomacia Militar y Geopolítica Transpacífica.
Authors: Ross Orellana César , Garay Vera Cristián
Published: August 2023

Este artículo describe el interés de Augusto Pinochet y los militares chilenos por la República de Corea (ROK) o Corea del Sur. Aunque se ha argumentado que la apertura al Asia Pacífico fue principalmente motivado por un interés económico, postulamos que estas relaciones económicas también pueden ser vistas como una estrategia consciente para sortear el bloqueo democrático, revelando un alto componente político en las relaciones con Corea del Sur.

La hipótesis de este artículo es que, desde el principio, hubo un enfoque geopolítico centrado en cuestiones de seguridad y defensa, que buscaba reforzar el frágil equilibrio del poder mundial en la década de 1970, las repercusiones de su aislamiento político y las tensiones vecinales entre 1974 y 1979.

Para ello se revisó bibliografía especializada, documentación del Archivo Histórico General del Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Chile, escritos de Augusto Pinochet Ugarte y otros autores militares de la época, contenidos en revistas militares y memorias.
Conferencia magistral de la embajadora Alicia Bárcena, con ocasión de la conmemoración de los 50 años del golpe de Estado en Chile
Authors: Americana Encrucijada

Agradezco la cordial invitación de la Universidad Alberto Hurtado para compartir con ustedes algunas reflexiones en el marco de la conmemoración de los 50 años del golpe de Estado y con ello la trágica ruptura de la democracia, que abrió una profunda cicatriz en la historia de Chile cuyas grietas llegan hasta el día de hoy entre familiares, amigos y colegas. Un hecho que golpeó las conciencias de muchas y muchos que, a la distancia, observábamos el inédito proyecto transformador que lideraba Salvador Allende, primer presidente socialista del mundo electo democráticamente.

Agradezco en especial a mi muy querido Armando di Filippo, con quien me une una muy estrecha amistad e innegables coincidencias en el campo de las ideas políticas y, por supuesto, de nuestro respectivo paso por la CEPAL (Comisión Económica para América Latina).

Más que intentar una reflexión académica de aquel aciago momento, quisiera recoger hitos de la memoria de este pueblo tan querido que interpela mi historia personal. Este recuerdo me revive la esperanza limpia que despertó en mí generación, y en muchas generaciones de latinoamericanos, la historia de una patria que había logrado en las urnas darse un gobierno de cambios, con vocación de justicia e igualdad, de la mano de un líder de estatura continental.
