Kinetic energy partitions in electron–ion PIC simulations of ABC fields
Authors: Chen Qiang
Published: April 2023

We explore the kinetic energy partitions between electrons and ions in the 2-D magnetostatic equilibria called Arnold–Beltrami–Childress (ABC) fields, using particle-in-cell (PIC) numerical simulations. We cover a wider range of ion–electron temperature combinations and get different results compared to previous studies of the Harris-layer-type magnetic reconnection simulations. We find that the initial ion–electron enthalpy ratio is an important indicator. The particle species that dominates the total enthalpy will also dominate the kinetic energy gains and the momentum distribution peaks, but the other species have higher nonthermal energy fractions because both species show similar maximum energies.
‘Sympathy for the Devil?’ McDonald’s between imperialism and the building of post-Yugoslav Serbian identity
Authors: Tournois Laurent
Published: April 2023

Since the opening of its first restaurant in a communist country, which was Yugoslavia, not only is the huge success of the U.S. franchise something that was merely not supposed to happen, but ‘consuming McDonald’s’ has left its mark on the post ‑Yugoslav identity building process. Our central argument is that the singularity of the ‘McDonaldization of Serbia’ encompasses the interactions between expansion/ localness, dominance/adaptation and those who take part in this historical process which spans more than three decades, their responses that apprise, shape and constrain their everyday life conditions. This paper starts from the observation that most of the existing scholarly literature on identity building addresses the end of the Yugoslav experience whether through state narratives or identities introverted. We chose a different and understudied angle, which is a people ‑centred perspective. Accordingly, this paper uses different research methods under the umbrella of a biographical perspective from 1988 to 2021. Ethnographic fieldwork, comprising 45 semi ‑structured interviews with Belgradians, aims to expand scholarly knowledge on consumption and identity building in post ‑Yugoslav Serbia. In addition, conversations with influential individuals contributed to identify periods in the intermingled life of McDonald’s and people in contemporary Serbia. In the early 1990s, the McDonaldisation to some extent escalated cultural disputes between the republics against a backdrop of identity tensions. During the period spanning from the late years of Milosevic’s rule to the advent of Alexandar Vučić in 2012, political conflicts over sovereignty sparked ambiguous civic responses. Finally, McDonald’s has brought Serbs into the Western sphere which is probably best encapsulated in a local popular saying ‘McDonald’s is McDonald’s’ (‘Mek je Mek’), despite being considered ‘tasty’/unhealthy, expensive/rewarding or socially stimulating.

Protective behavior with vaccination measures is an effort to protect against the spread of Covid-19 which can be done, especially in at-risk groups such as pregnant women. Lack of knowledge, the spread of negative opinions and the high feeling of worry about the impact of Covid-19 vaccination have resulted in a low level of willingness in pregnant women to be vaccinated compared to other populations. This study aims to determine the correlation between the level of knowledge of pregnant women regarding the Covid-19 vaccination and their willingness to carry out the vaccination. This research is included in the type of correlational quantitative research with a cross sectional design. The sample used in this study was 70 pregnant women who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. The sample inclusion criteria are pregnant women who have not been vaccinated against Covid-19 and the exclusion criteria are pregnant women with uncontrolled comorbidities and have a high risk (anemia, hyperemesis gravidarum, and preeclampsia). Data analysis using univariate and bivariate tests with chi-square statistical tests. The results of this study show that the majority of respondents have a high level of knowledge (51,4%) and some are willing to carry out the Covid-19 vaccination (75,7%). Based on the results of the chi-square test, it is known that there is a correlation between the level of knowledge of pregnant women regarding the Covid-19 vaccination and their willingness to be given the Covid-19 vaccine (p-value = 0.000). The conclusion obtained is that when the knowledge about administering the covid-19 vaccine to pregnant women is high, the willingness will also increase to carry out the vaccination.

В статье представлены проблемы морского транспортно-промышленного комплекса страны, которые накопились за последние 30 лет: старение судов, отсутствие современной технологической базы для восстановления изношенных деталей и изготовления сменно-запасных частей (СЗЧ) судового оборудования, а также ведомственных научных институтов для обеспечения технологического прорыва и решения возникающих задач. Проблемы усугубляются тем, что у судов и морской техники доля стоимости иностранных комплектующих в структуре стоимости судового оборудования составляет для гражданского сектора от 40 до 85%. Серьезной проблемой является нехватка кадров, вызванная отсутствием профессиональных компетенций в областях судоремонта, восстановления изношенных деталей и изготовления СЗЧ, существенно снижающая эффективность судоремонта. Правительством разработана программа строительства до 2035 г. более 2000 судов и морской техники, для ремонта и технической эксплуатации которых необходимо создать производство по изготовлению СЗЧ и восстановлению крупногабаритных дорогостоящих деталей. Решение этих проблем требует участия государства и целенаправленного финансирования программ модернизации материально-технической базы судоремонтных предприятий, создания инновационно-технологических центров, обеспечивающих разработку перспективных технологий восстановления и изготовления СЗЧ.

Authors: Bliss Cornelius Sedega
Published: April 2023

The study examined the effects of integration on the development of Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching (MKT) among pre-service teachers while enrolled in a math program at the colleges of education in Ghana in the face of the new curriculum. In all, two hundred and forty-seven (247) pre-service teachers (PSTs) were sampled for the study. The experimental group comprised one hundred and thirty (130) PSTs who were taught both Mathematics content and method courses in an integrated manner, while the control group, comprised of one hundred and seventeen (117) PSTs, was taught Mathematics content and method courses separately. The non-equivalent static-group comparison design was used for the study. Both groups of PSTs were post-tested after they had received instruction in mathematics courses up to the point where they were ready to go for their macro teaching (Off Campus Teaching Practice) to compare their achievements in terms of their mathematical knowledge for teaching. Analysis of data using the independent sample t-test revealed that the control group had a mean score lower than the experimental group, and the standard deviation showed that the scores of the control group were far from their mean score. That is, the scores of the control group were more heterogeneous than that of the experimental group. The experimental group scored higher than the control group on the post-test, and their scores were more homogeneous than the control group. At a significant level of 0.05, there was a statistically significant difference between the means of the two groups on the post-test. With a mean difference of 5.042, the experimental group performed better than the control group on the post-test. Hence, the students in the experimental group turned out to achieve better on MKT components than the students in the control group. It was recommended, among others, that the use of the integrated approach in the teaching and learning of Mathematics should be encouraged, monitored, and supported throughout the Colleges of Education in Ghana.

A lot of process variables affect the surface roughness obtained in turned machine parts. One of these variables is bearing clearance. However, there is limited information on the influence of bearing clearance on surface integrity. This paper is an optimization study in which the surface roughness of AISI 1018 mild steel is minimized with the aid of the response surface methodology. In this paper, the effect of process parameters like cutting speed, feed, depth of cut, and bearing clearance is analyzed to ascertain how the surface finish properties of mild steel can be improved. The design of the experiment used for this study involves a rotatable central composite system. This design is used to find the experimental results of machining. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine the statistical significance of the improved quadratic model developed. The numerical and graphical optimization carried out determined the optimum values of each of the parameters used in different ways. From the ANOVA, it was revealed that the most significant factor in the model was the depth of cut. This factor was closely followed by spindle speed, bearing clearance, and feed, respectively. Numerical optimization results employing the desirability function showed optimum values to be at bearing clearance of 70um, depth of cut of 2.5mm, feed of 0.01mm/rev, and a spindle speed of 450rpm. The result obtained using the graphical optimization option was similar to the results from the other options. The variation of surface roughness with the process parameters chosen for the experiment was mathematically modeled. The model developed used the response surface methodology, and it was validated with a set of experimental values. The result from the exercise undertaken revealed that the predicted values of the surface roughness were very close to measured values. The average percentage deviation of 6.20% for all sample data utilized showed that the model developed was in close agreement with the experimental results.
Tripping Optimization to Promote Flat Time Reduction in Oil and Gas Well Drilling Operations
Authors: Dagogo Sopriala Omubo
Published: April 2023

Tripping, relating to oil and gas drilling operations, is a term used to describe running in or pulling out tubulars into or from an already drilled borehole. It is common to all well delivery operations in the oil and gas industry, including drilling, completions, work-over, and abandonment.

Besides drilling a well that meets technical specifications in a safe manner and within the approved budget, well delivery success is not achieved if the specified time is exceeded. Time is an essential factor as it also has a large influence on cost. Well delivery time could be classified as either drilling time (time allotted to activities where the well depth increases with time) or flat time (time allotted to activities that do not directly contribute to an increase in well depth).

Flat time reduction is a key strategy used to reduce oil and gas well delivery costs. This is applicable in drilling operations, specifically where well cost is directly proportional to time. There is ample room for drilling performance improvement by reducing flat time without eroding well quality. Oil and gas well delivery performance engineers are, therefore, constantly seeking ways to reduce flat time to the barest minimum.

Tripping optimization refers to the application of specific methods aimed at preventing technical issues while tripping and reducing tripping time. Tripping is one of the major contributors to flat time, with typically circa 8 to 10% of planned tripping time (exclusive of casing and completion running time) in drilling operations. This means tripping optimization has a direct effect on flat time reduction and, by extension, well cost reduction.

This article discusses various tripping optimization techniques and how they promote flat time reduction in oil and gas well drilling operations. It emphasizes how drilling operations can be more time-efficient and consequently cost-efficient by improved tripping practices.

Strategies to Identify Constructions in Spoken Word Poetry in Kenya
Authors: Okemwa Christopher
Published: April 2023

This article explores how poets construct their identities in spoken word poetry performances in Nairobi, Kenya. The article contends how the poets create their own images, and stage personae play a pivotal role in endearing themselves to the unique Nairobi audience. It does this by tracing the history of the event and comprehensively describing the performances. Preparations for the event are also brought to light. Spoken word poetry is, arguably, the premier regular performance poetry event in Nairobi since 2015 to date. Thus, understanding how the poets construct their own identities is an essential antidote to understanding the longstanding endurance of the spoken word poetry performances in Nairobi.
Entrepreneurship and Business Ethics from Islamic Perspective
Authors: Dr. Musa Olaofe
Published: April 2023

Entrepreneurship is a catalyst and the largest contributor to the economic development of every country in the world. Islam encouraged its adherents to be involved in business activities from day one, following the essentials of business ethics. Islam sees business activities as a form of worship since it was made lawful by Allah in the Noble Qur'an. It urged Muslims to become successful in this world and hereafter by enjoying good and forbidden wrong. The study, therefore, discussed entrepreneurship from Islamic perspective and examined the essentials of Islamic business ethics. The findings of the study show that in contemporary society, there are some Muslim entrepreneurs and traders who still conduct business regardless of its lawful or unlawful side. The study revealed that following the Islamic guidelines on entrepreneurship and the business ethics and manners of business activities proscribed in the Noble Qur'an and Hadith of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the best way to succeed in any type of business. The study, therefore, recommends that every Islamic entrepreneur should continuously practise Islamic-based entrepreneurship and business ethics stated in the Noble Qur'an and in the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and always be fair, honest, and sincere in every business establishment conducted with other entrepreneurs, and always avoid bribery, corruption, lying, deceiving, conflicts of selfish interest and must avoid practicing usury either directly or indirectly. The study adopts descriptive and interpretative methods, and both primary and secondary data sources were used.
