Authors: Nepomuceno Francisca Luciana , De Carvalho Nunes Paulo Roberto , Rodrigues Rubens Carlos
Published: May 2024

A obtenção de informações tempestivas, relevantes e que reflitam, financeira e operacionalmente, a realidade produtiva é um grande desafio contemporâneo para as empresas, assim, cada método de custeio visa atender necessidades informacionais distintas, com foco em informações contábil, fiscal, gerencial ou operacional. Este estudo tem como objetivo investigar a percepção dos gestores de empresa quanto à qualidade das informações sobre custos, em decorrência do uso associado dos métodos de custeio por absorção e unidade de esforço de produção (UEP). Para tanto, utilizou-se de pesquisa descritiva, análise documental e entrevistas semiestruturadas com os gestores das áreas de controladoria e produção na maior empresa de massas e biscoitos do Brasil. Os resultados indicaram que o método de custeio por unidade de esforço de produção (UEP), quando utilizado de forma adequada e em conformidade com suas finalidades, melhora a qualidade das informações de custos e seu uso associado ao método de custeio por absorção proporciona maior relevância e confiabilidade na utilização destas informações, tais como, melhorar entendimento do reflexo econômico-financeiro dos indicadores de eficiência e produtividade e, principalmente, na comparação entre linhas de produção e unidades de negócios que direciona os esforços e de gastos na produção, possibilitando análises mais aprofundadas e maior possibilidade de verificação das informações tornando todo o sistema decisório mais robusto e confiável.

Published: May 2024

As cooperativas atuam como agentes de desenvolvimento local, priorizando benefícios para seus membros. Uma questão importante é a forma como são destinados os resultados de cada exercício, cabendo ao quadro social definir a forma de distribuição e/ou constituição de reservas. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar se as estratégias de destinação dos resultados das cooperativas de crédito se relacionam com sua eficiência, que foi medida pela análise envoltória de dados. Trabalhou-se com 92 cooperativas de crédito de livre admissão, integrantes dos sistemas Sicredi e Sicoob e com sede na região sul do Brasil. Os escores de eficiência foram calculados para as cooperativas agrupadas de acordo com a prática predominante de destinação de resultados e por sistemas de afiliação. O estudo concluiu não existir uma relação entre as práticas de destinação de resultados e a eficiência das cooperativas. Também foi evidenciado que há uma tendência de aumento na constituição de reservas indivisíveis e que é importante o monitoramento das despesas administrativas e de pessoal, pois apresentaram crescimento superior às operações de crédito, à remuneração de depósitos e às sobras. Em termos de contribuições do trabalho, verifica-se que vários estudos já foram publicados sobre eficiência de instituições financeiras, mas há uma escassez de trabalhos que avaliam as estratégias de destinação de resultados. As cooperativas devem buscar o equilíbrio na destinação para reservas, importante para sustentabilidade econômico-financeira, e para a deliberação em assembleia, importante para a sustentabilidade do relacionamento com os cooperados e conformidade com os princípios cooperativistas.

Published: May 2024

Este estudo busca entender como as contradições institucionais e as práxis promoveram o processo de institucionalização do controle gerencial e orçamentário em uma indústria têxtil no oeste do Paraná. Utilizando uma abordagem qualitativa, o estudo de caso descritivo incluiu entrevistas com gestores das áreas de Controladoria, Consultoria, Financeiro, Logística e Industrial. Visitas foram realizadas para a triangulação dos dados. As entrevistas coletaram informações sobre a implantação do controle orçamentário, revelando que as contradições, como a ineficiência de controles e sistemas, impulsionaram a mudança no controle gerencial. As práxis humanas foram fundamentais nessa transformação, com a equipe demonstrando abertura, engajamento e adaptações operacionais. O estudo contribui teoricamente ao compreender as contradições, práxis e mudanças nos controles gerenciais dentro de uma organização do setor industrial têxtil. Identificou técnicas gerenciais utilizadas e expôs o impacto das mudanças no controle gerencial nesse setor, por meio da implantação do projeto CONFIAR, da metodologia FCA (Fato, Causa, Ação) e de novas ferramentas gerenciais (Power BI). Em termos práticos, identifica as técnicas gerenciais e as mudanças que impactaram o controle gerencial na organização, bem como a legitimidade com o apoio do modelo de Seo & Creed (2002) na implantação de controles orçamentários e gerenciais na indústria têxtil. Socialmente, destacam-se três Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS): (viii) Promover o crescimento econômico sustentado, inclusivo e sustentável, emprego pleno e produtivo e trabalho decente para todas e todos; (ix) Construir infraestruturas resilientes, promover a industrialização inclusiva e sustentável e fomentar a inovação; e (xii) Assegurar padrões de produção e de consumo sustentáveis.

The environment is often beautified by the presence of tree plants which consist of the shoot and the root. These plants contain organs often referred to as above ground organs (shoot) and below ground organ (root). In this study, the plant organs of five different plants including Adansoniadigitata, Anacardiumoccidentale, Azadirachtaindica, Eucalyptus globulus, and Parkiabiglobosa were sampled to investigate the levels of cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn). The sampled parts were transported in polythene bags to the laboratory where they were sorted, pretreated, stored and digestedwith10 cm3 of 6M nitric acid. The digested samples were subjected to analysis using atomic absorption spectrophotometry to determine the heavy metals (HMs). The results revealed that all the above ground organs of these plants accumulated HMs at varying levels. The leaf samples of the all tree plants accumulated higher concentrations of the HMs than the bark samples except in P. big lobosa (7.07 ± 0.42 mg/Kg, Co [leaf]; 14.10 ± 0.62 mg/Kg, Co [bark]). The results revealed that the leaves portion contained more of the essential heavy metals (EHMs) than the bark samples of the tree plants. A. indica has the highest bio-indication potential while E. globulus exhibited the least potential based on the above ground organs analysis. The translocation factors of the NHMs (Cr and Pb) were below unity. The translocation factors well above unity suggest better phytoextraction capability of the tree plants. All the plants potentially accumulated the metals at varying levels irrespective of the different geographical locations, morphological and biomass variations of the tree plants.

Published: May 2024

Intrusion detection systems aim to capture security attacks & use analysers to determine details. Local wireless IDSs track all local wireless traffic and produce warnings based on signatures or abnormalities. Intrusion detection mechanisms can be configured to render unwanted access to the region easier. This paper aims to design a system to defend from intruders, human beings, through traditional surveillance devices, which cannot function in real-time, by utilising cameras fitted with infrared sensors. The aforementioned components comprise an interface program development system, intrusion detector sensors, wireless sensors, a programmable microcontroller, a controlled power supply device, Proteus relays, a GSM modem, and a cell phone. In reaction to adjustments in the atmosphere the controller activates a sensor to monitor and report input to the PIR’s wireless network. When the fire alarm device senses smoke, it can transmit a brief text message to the building’s owners. The system which uses an LM35 sensor to determine the temperature of food products, preventing fires from spreading throughout buildings without the tenants’ knowledge was produced. It is inexpensive, simple to install, and applicable to a variety of locations, including hotels, warehouses, and the automotive industry. This research study incorporates comprehensive tactics for monitoring environmental elements and fire safety, going beyond traditional intrusion detection methodologies. In doing so, this study offers a comprehensive strategy for protecting network infrastructures against various threats. The goal of integrating these essential components is to offer a more complete and reliable security solution.

Intricate multiple scattering features of artificial facilities in X-Band SAR images
Authors: Ma Sijie , Li Tao , Liu Yan , Liu Jie
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Due to the intricate distortion and reflection geometry of the SAR signal, it is typically difficult to determine the multiple scattering of large artificial objects in SAR images. This work presents a scattering point path tracking model that utilizes the real three-dimensional dimensions of targets, based on the geometric optics method. Three different artificial structures, including light poles, cable stayed bridges, and power transmission lines, are carefully analysed in time-series SAR images with their simulated multiple scattering results. The results demonstrate that the routes determined by the model are consistent with the multiple scattering features on SAR images. Moreover, the time-series data demonstrate that ripples in the water's surface have a significant impact on the multi-scattering features of power lines and bridges. The double scattering features of the light pole provides a novel approach to the process of permanent scatterers (PS) in urban areas. The instances presented in this study demonstrate the effectiveness of the scattering point path tracking model in identifying the various artificial facility targets on different reflective surfaces. It will be a useful tool for deciphering the multiple scattering of large artificial structures when their 3D model is known.
Exploring the effects of crop growth differences on radar vegetation index response and crop height estimation using dynamic monitoring model
Authors: Wang Bo , Liu Yu , Sheng Qinghong , Li Jun , Wang Shuwei , Qiao Yunfeng , He Honglin
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has emerged as a promising technology for monitoring crop plant height due to its ability to capture the geometric properties of crops. Radar vegetation index (RVI) has been extensively utilized for qualitative and quantitative remote sensing monitoring of vegetation growth dynamics. However, the combination of crop, growing environment, and temporal dynamics makes crop monitoring data a complex task. Despite the relatively simple underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon, there is still a need for more research to identify specific vegetation structures that correspond to changes in the response of vegetation indices. Building upon this premise, this study utilized a dynamic monitoring model to conduct dynamic monitoring of plant height for three common crops: rice, wheat, and maize. The findings revealed that (1) models developed for specific spatial and temporal scales of particular crop varieties may not accurately predict crop growth in different regions or with different varieties in a timely manner, due to growth variations; (2) these models maintain accuracy over a range of plant heights, such as rice at around 70cm, wheat at around 50cm, and maize at around 150cm; (3) among the three crops, planting density was identified as the main factor influencing the differences in RVI response. This research contributes to our comprehension of the dynamic response of RVI to different growth conditions in crops, and offers valuable insights and references for agricultural monitoring.

Published: May 2024

Abstract. This article uses 43 Sentinel-1A image datasets covering Beijing to obtain time series surface deformation information in the study area from January 2022 to October 2023. It analyzes the causes of land subsidence by integrating precipitation and urban construction. The main research results are as follows: (1) Three distinct subsidence areas are identified in the eastern part of Chaoyang District in Beijing (Subsidence Area A), the northwestern part of Tongzhou District in Beijing (Subsidence Area B), and Yanjiao Town in Hebei Province (Subsidence Area B), which is adjacent to Beijing. Subsidence Areas A and B exhibit a dispersed pattern, with maximum land subsidence rates exceeding −30 mm/year. In contrast, Subsidence Areas C displays a funnel-shaped subsidence, where the majority of areas experience land subsidence rates exceeding −25 mm/year, with a maximum rate reaching −45 mm/year. (2) Precipitation has a significant impact on surface deformation in the study area, and there is a strong correlation between precipitation and land subsidence, with correlation values of 0.77, 0.77, and 0.74, respectively. (3) Urban construction has a certain impact on land subsidence, but the degree of impact varies in different regions.
Cross Domain Early Crop Mapping with Label Spaces Discrepancies using MultiCropGAN
Authors: Wang Yiqun , Huang Hui , State Radu
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Mapping target crops before the harvest season for regions lacking crop-specific ground truth is critical for global food security. Utilizing multispectral remote sensing and domain adaptation methods, prior studies strive to produce precise crop maps in these regions (target domain) with the help of the crop-specific labelled remote sensing data from the source regions (source domain). However, existing approaches assume identical label spaces across those domains, a challenge often unmet in reality, necessitating a more adaptable solution. This paper introduces the Multiple Crop Mapping Generative Adversarial Neural Network (MultiCropGAN) model, comprising a generator, discriminator, and classifier. The generator transforms target domain data into the source domain, employing identity losses to retain the characteristics of the target data. The discriminator aims to distinguish them and shares the structure and weights with the classifier, which locates crops in the target domain using the generator’s output. This model’s novel capability lies in locating target crops within the target domain, overcoming differences in crop type label spaces between the target and source domains. In experiments, MultiCropGAN is benchmarked against various baseline methods. Notably, when facing differing label spaces, MultiCropGAN significantly outperforms other baseline methods. The Overall Accuracy is improved by about 10%.
Large-scale DSM registration via motion averaging
Authors: Xu Ningli , Qin Rongjun
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Generating wide-area digital surface models (DSMs) requires registering a large number of individual, and partially overlapped DSMs. This presents a challenging problem for a typical registration algorithm, since when a large number of observations from these multiple DSMs are considered, it may easily cause memory overflow. Sequential registration algorithms, although can significantly reduce the computation, are especially vulnerable for small overlapped pairs, leading to a large error accumulation. In this work, we propose a novel solution that builds the DSM registration task as a motion averaging problem: pair-wise DSMs are registered to build a scene graph, with edges representing relative poses between DSMs. Specifically, based on the grid structure of the large DSM, the pair-wise registration is performed using a novel nearest neighbor search method. We show that the scene graph can be optimized via an extremely fast motion average algorithm with O(N) complexity (N refers to the number of images). Evaluation of high-resolution satellite-derived DSM demonstrates significant improvement in computation and accuracy.
Georeferencing of Satellite Images with Geocoded Image Features
Authors: Zhang Yating , Li Heyi , Yu Jing , Tao Pengjie
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Currently, using digital orthophoto map (DOM) and digital elevation model (DEM) as reference to achieve geometric positioning of newly acquired satellite images has become a popular photogrammetric approach. However, this method relies on DOM and DEM data which requires a lot of storage space in practical applications. In addition, for geometric positioning of satellite images, only sparse image feature points are needed as control points. Consequently, for the sake of convenience, the compression of control data emerges as a necessity with significant practical implications. This paper investigates a "cloud control" photogrammetry method based on geocoded image features. The method extracts SIFT feature points from DOMs, and obtains their ground coordinates, then constructs geocoded image feature library instead of DOM and DEM data as control, thus realizing the compression of control data. Experiments conducted on the Tianhui-1, Ziyuan-3 and Gaofen-2 satellite images demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve high-precision geometric positioning of satellite images and greatly reduce the size of the control data. Specifically, with the reduction of the reference data from 180~1248 MB 2 m DOM and 30 m DEM to 5~10 MB geocoded image features, the geopositional accuracies of the test Tianhui-1, Ziyuan-3 and Gaofen-2 images are improved from 3.12 pixels to 1.74 pixels, 3.69 pixels to 1.09 pixels, and 150.93 pixels to 2.67 pixels, respectively.
A method for detecting photovoltaic panel faults using a drone equipped with a multispectral camera
Authors: Duan Ran , Ma Zhenling
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Photovoltaic power stations utilizing solar energy, have grown in scale, resulting in an increase in operational maintenance requirements. Efficient inspection of components within these stations is crucial. However, the large area of photovoltaic power generation, coupled with a substantial number of photovoltaic panels and complex geographical environments, renders manual inspection methods highly inefficient and inadequate for modern photovoltaic power stations. To address this issue, this paper proposes a method and system for hot spot detection on photovoltaic panels using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with multispectral cameras. The UAVs capture visible and infrared images of the photovoltaic power plant, which are then processed for photogrammetry to determine imaging position and attitude. The infrared images are stitched together using this information, forming a geographically referenced overall image. Hot spot detection is performed on the infrared images, enabling the identification of faulty photovoltaic panels and facilitating efficient inspection and maintenance. Experimental trials were conducted at a photovoltaic power station in Qingyuan, Guangdong Province China. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in accurately detecting panels with hot spot faults.

Authors:   , De Almeida Pavarino Ana Carolina
Published: May 2024

Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer and Australia has the highest global incidence of this disease due to a combination of population genetics and environmental UV exposure. While the causal link between UV exposure and melanomagenesis is well established, the mechanistic basis of tumour development and individual susceptibility lack understanding. In this study we explored the contribution of the orphan nuclear receptor NR4A3 to DNA damage recognition and repair pathways and cytoprotection. Identifying a link between NR4A3 receptor function and DNA repair and cytoprotective autophagy advances our understanding of melanoma susceptibility and the mechanism underpinning melanoma development.

Innovación en entornos educativos sinohablantes: una investigación-acción en un aula de Composición Escrita en Taiwán
Authors: Blanco Pena José Miguel
Published: May 2024

En las clases de lenguas extranjeras en países como China, Japón, Corea del Sur o Taiwán, suelen impartirse materias como Conversación sin integrar las diferentes destrezas, mientras que otras como Gramática, Composición o Lectura y Vocabulario se enseñan utilizando métodos tradicionales, como la gramática-traducción o los métodos audiolinguales. Esto nos recuerda que los enfoques comunicativos modernos de la enseñanza de lenguas extranjeras no están tan extendidos como suele creerse. Ante esta situación, creemos que el concepto de innovación educativa en tales entornos, así como en asignaturas como las mencionadas, debe entenderse de manera amplia, tal como lo promueven hoy instituciones de relevancia mundial como la UNICEF o la OCDE. Partiendo de esta idea, nuestro objetivo en esta investigación fue comprobar si un método de enseñanza contextualmente innovador, basado en la práctica de los exámenes DELE y centrado específicamente en las instrucciones, los puntos de orientación y las escalas de calificación de estas pruebas, podía contribuir a mejorar la competencia discursiva y la confianza de los estudiantes de pregrado en Taiwán; no solo al realizar los exámenes DELE, sino también al estudiar Composición. Para ello, durante el curso 2020-2021 desarrollamos un proyecto de investigación-acción con un grupo de estudiantes de tercer curso de la carrera de Lengua y Cultura Hispánica del Departamento de Español de la Universidad de Tamkang. Los resultados obtenidos confirman la efectividad del método empleado, e implican que un conocimiento profundo de las pruebas escritas de los DELE, por un lado, y la práctica continua teniendo en cuenta los puntos de orientación y las escalas de calificación de estas pruebas, por otro, pueden ayudar enormemente a los estudiantes a mejorar su capacidad y confianza en las tareas de escritura, en general, así como a la hora de afrontar las tareas de expresión e interacción escritas de los exámenes organizados por el Instituto Cervantes.

Los estudios sobre la adquisición de una lengua extranjera (LE) nos indican que la manera humana de apropiarse del léxico es parecida a la de la lengua materna (LM), aunque éste presente características propias. En el marco de la fraseología, las unidades fraseológicas (UFS) en español presentan una clara diferencia en la interfaz semántica en comparación con el de las correspondientes en ruso. Para llevar a cabo el presente estudio se seleccionan a 20 estudiantes universitarios rusos con perfil lingüístico que aprenden español como L2 con el fin de analizar la manera en la que adquieren las UFS en contexto. Asimismo, se proponen los mapas conceptuales como un tipo de actividad cognitiva para la enseñanza de las UFS en ELE, concretamente de las locuciones verbales somáticas (LVS) de cara a facilitar el proceso de adquisición fraseológica, así como su memorización.
La mujer rural y las estrategias de dinamización socio-económica en España para su inclusión: un estudio de investigación documental
Authors: Morcillo Martínez Juana María
Published: May 2024

Introducción. En España, en las zonas rurales, la participación de la mujer en el ámbito sociolaboral es poco valorada, siendo ellas esenciales en el empleo, el emprendimiento y la innovación. Objetivos. En este sentido, el presente estudio de investigación documental tiene como objetivo revisar, desde la disciplina del trabajo social, que tipo de actuaciones acrecientan y visibilizan el empoderamiento de la mujer, la inserción sociolaboral y la igualdad de género en el ámbito rural en el Estado español. Metodología. El proceso metodológico se llevó a cabo a través de una búsqueda bibliográfica en las bases de datos Social Service Abstract y Sociological Abstract proporcionando cobertura bibliográfica de investigaciones en relación a nuestro objeto de estudio y a nuestra disciplina. Resultados. Los resultados señalan la carencia de investigaciones que se preocupen por la inclusión de la mujer en las estrategias de dinamización socioeconómica en la España rural entre los años 2010 y 2020. Conclusiones. Por ello, es necesario desarrollar programas de investigación e intervención social que se adecuen a la realidad social de las mujeres del entorno donde se interviene. Estas actuaciones han de ser flexibles, adaptadas a las verdaderas necesidades de las mujeres rurales, innovadoras, de carácter integral y basadas en la participación activa, liderazgo y empoderamiento.

Sözü Güzelleştiren Sanatlardan Mukabele Sanatının İncelenmesi: Kur’ân-ı Kerim Örneği
Authors: KOCABIYIK Halil İbrahim
Published: May 2024

Mukabele is one of the figures of speech that beautify the meaning, which is also mentioned as equivalent in the science of bedi'. The source of beauty in the metaphor, which is defined as bringing two or more meanings together and then mentioning the opposite or related meanings of each one respectively, is the syntax harmony between the opposing or compatible meanings. Although it is an independent art of painting, it is seen that it is not discussed under a separate title in rhetoric books. In this study, the definition of mukabele, its classification, and the difference between it and tıbâk/contrast will be discussed and evaluations will be made by giving some examples from the verses of the Holy Quran and the poems of important poets of Turkish literature. We will examine the art of mukabele in terms of the arrangement of words, in the form of compound mukabela and non-composed mukabele, and division based on numbers (two with two, three with three, four with four, five with five, six with six). Our aim is to contribute to a clearer understanding of the nature of response. Key Words: Mukabele, eloquence, tibâki, bedî, agreement.
Konkurencja zażaleń w postępowaniu cywilnym?
Authors: Misztal-Konecka Joanna
Published: May 2024

Liczne nowelizacje Kodeksu postępowania cywilnego znacznie skomplikowały system środków odwoławczych zwłaszcza w odniesieniu do orzeczeń (postanowienia) i zarządzeń (zarządzenia) zaskarżanych zażaleniami (zażalenia) i zarządzeń procesowych zaskarżanych zażaleniami. Wprowadzenie oprócz tradycyjnego zażalenia do sądu drugiej instancji i zażalenia do Sądu Najwyższego, także zażalenia do Sądu Najwyższego, także zażalenia do innego składu sądu pierwszej lub drugiej instancji rodzi pytanie o relację między nimi. Niniejszy artykuł obejmuje analizę, czy takie orzeczenia sądu pierwszej instancji mogą być podstawą do zastosowania różnych rodzajów zażaleń, a jeśli tak, to czy w takim przypadku mamy do czynienia z sytuacją zbiegu lub konkurencji skarg. Analiza wskazuje, że w przypadku gdy orzeczenie sądu spełnia przesłanki zarówno z art. 3941 (orzeczenia kończące postępowanie w sprawie), jak i art. 3941a § 1 k.p.c, można wnieść tylko jeden rodzaj zażalenia, podczas gdy norma kompetencyjna z art. norma kompetencyjna z art. 3941b k.p.c. sytuuje zażalenie w sądzie drugiej instancji. Zasada wyłączności środków odwoławczych została zatem uprzednio zachowana.
Dopuszczalność zażalenia w postępowaniu zabezpieczającym – po nowelizacji kodeksu postępowania cywilnego z 9 marca 2023 r.

Przedmiotem opracowania jest problematyka związana z analizą zmian wprowadzonych do przepisów kodeksu postępowania cywilnego dotyczących zaskarżania postanowień wydawanych w postępowaniu zabezpieczającym. Analiza dokonanych zmian, które obowiązują od 1 lipca 2023 r., wymaga uprzedniego wskazania, jakie postanowienia wydawane są w postępowaniu zabezpieczającym oraz na czym polega ich specyfika i tryb zaskarżania. Omówiono także reguły związane z wejściem w życie znowelizowanych przepisów.
Domniemanie niewinności, in dubio pro reo i przesłanki przyjęcia postanowienia o tymczasowym aresztowaniu w prawie Unii Europejskiej. Część 3
Authors: Gontarski Waldemar
Published: May 2024

Przedmiotem artykułu – złożonego z trzech części – jest omówienie wybranych uregulowań dyrektywy 2016/343, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem: 1) domniemania niewinności i 2) zasady in dubio pro reo oraz 3) przesłanek minimalnych przyjęcia postanowienia o tymczasowym aresztowaniu, zarówno jeśli chodzi o zasady badania dowodów, jak i o zakres uzasadnienia takiego postanowienia. Biorąc pod uwagę uprzedni poziom ochrony w Unii Europejskiej, niniejsza publikacja wyjaśnia, czy ochrona praw podstawowych została wzmocniona. W przedmiocie in dubio pro reo – uwzględniając orzecznictwo Trybunału Sprawiedliwości Unii Europejskiej z okresu poprzedzającego wydanie dyrektywy, rozszerzające tę zasadę na niektóre postępowania administracyjne – udzielono odpowiedzi zdecydowanie negatywnej. Przeciwnie rzecz się ma z domniemaniem niewinności. Natomiast w zakresie badania materiału dowodowego koniecznego do orzekania o zgodności z prawem tymczasowego aresztowania zwrócono uwagę na utrwalenie i rozwinięcie przez przepisy omawianej dyrektywy standardu określonego już w latach sześćdziesiątych ubiegłego stulecia w orzecznictwie Europejskiego Trybunału Praw Człowieka w Strasburgu. Tak rozumiane przesłanki przyjęcia postanowienia o tymczasowym aresztowaniu – skonfrontowane z praktyką orzeczniczą sądów polskich, w tym Sądu Najwyższego – wskazują na to, że co do zasady daje o sobie znać brak implementacji sądowej przepisów dyrektywy w interpretacji TSUE. Powoduje to problem systemowy związany z przewlekłością aresztowania tymczasowego, co bez interwencji ustawodawcy może powodować niespójność systemu prawnego.
Prezydent jako świadek w procesie cywilnym
Authors: Szanciło Tomasz
Published: May 2024

Prezydent Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej jest najwyższym przedstawicielem Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej (art. 126 ust. 1 Konstytucji RP), będąc jednocześnie jednym z organów dwu- członowej egzekutywy (władzy wykonawczej). Chociaż jest on „pierwszą osobą w państwie”, „najważniejszą osobą w państwie”, to osoba, która piastuje ten urząd, jest jednocześnie obywatelem Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej, a więc ma prawa i obowiązki wynikające z przepisów prawa. O ile w kodeksie postępowania cywilnego z 1930 roku wspomniano o Prezydencie jako świadku, o tyle obecnie obowiązujący kodeks postępowania cywilnego nie zawiera żadnych regulacji w tej materii. W opracowaniu wykazano, że generalnie w procesie cywilnym status prawny Prezydenta RP jest analogiczny do sytuacji prawnej innych uczestników tego postępowania i nie ma przeszkód prawnych, aby występował on przed sądem jako świadek, z wyłączeniami i ograniczeniami wynikającymi z norm rangi ustawowej. Wezwanie Prezydenta RP jako świadka powoduje, że jest on przesłuchiwany na zasadach ogólnych, aczkolwiek wskazana jest powściągliwość ze strony sądów co do wezwania go w celu złożenia zeznań w tym charakterze. Sąd powinien, chociaż nie ma takiego obowiązku, ustalać z Prezydentem RP (jego Kancelarią) czas i miejsce odebrania od niego zeznań. Jest to podyktowane względami praktycznymi i kurtuazyjnymi. Jest to tym bardziej istotne, że przeprowadzenie dowodu z zeznań świadka nie musi się odbywać w siedzibie sądu. Nie ma więc żadnych przeszkód, aby Prezydent RP został przesłuchany w miejscu dla niego dogodnym. Jednocześnie jednak nie ma podstaw do różnicowania sytuacji Prezydenta RP (w stosunku do innych obywateli) co do sankcji z art. 276 k.p.c., a więc kary grzywny czy nawet aresztu z powodu nieuzasadnionej odmowy zeznań.

The flow based minor irrigation systems are common in the plateau areas of eastern India. However due to rolling topography and coarse soil texture, the irrigation efficiency is quite poor. With rolling topography, a scope exists to shift from surface irrigation to hybrid application system comprising gravity fed pipe conveyance and surface irrigation for rice in monsoon season and pumped pressurized irrigation system for post-monsoon crops. A system comprising an adjunct reservoir, a common mainline with option of sprinkler and drip at desirable location was designed for one outlet of a minor irrigation system and was evaluated for its hydraulics and irrigation efficiency. The system reduced the turbidity of the canal water from 11-16 NTU to 2-3 NTU in three stages i.e. adjunct reservoir, catchwell and filtration unit. It was found that the irrigation efficiency of sprinkler and drip irrigation systems were 77.2% and 90.19% respectively in comparison to 46.14% in case of surface irrigation system. The uniformity coefficients of sprinkler irrigation system and emission uniformity of drip irrigation system were 81.4% and 94.2% respectively. Thus the above system can be successfully used in minor irrigation commands, for increasing irrigation efficiency as well as yields. The economic analysis of the system indicated that if the cost of hybrid drip and sprinkler irrigation system is less than Rs. 38,000.00 /ha, then saving water through this system will be more economical.
