Published: December 2024

The exact recursion relations are used to study the mixed half-integer spin-(3/2, 7/2) Blume-Capel Ising ferrimagnetic system on the Bethe lattice. Ground-state phase diagrams are computed in the (DA /q|J|, DB /q|J|) plane to reveal different possible ground states of the model. Using the thermal changes of the order-arameters, interesting temperature dependent phase diagrams are constructed in the (DA/|J|, kT/|J|), (DB/|J|, kT/|J|) planes as well as in the (D/|J|, kT/|J|) plane where D = DA = DB. It is revealed that the system exhibits first- and second-order phase transitions and compensation temperatures for specific model parameter values. Under the constraint of an external magnetic field, the model also produces multi-hysteresis behaviors as single, double and triple hysteresis cycles. Particularly, the impacts of the ferrimagnetic coupling  J on the remanent magnetization and the coercitive fields for selected values of the other physical parameters of the system are pointed out. Our numerical results are qualitatively consistent with those reported in the literature.
Effect of arsenic doping on structural and electronic properties of MoSe2 monolayer: an ab initio study
Authors: Bradji B. , Benkhedir M. L.
Published: December 2024

In this paper, we studied the structural and electronic properties of MoSe2 monolayer in its pure and doped forms, using the density functional theory (DFT), and the calculations were performed using Quantum Espresso (QE) software package. The doped systems are a MoSe2 monolayer with a vacancy in Mo site (Mo vacancy system), the MoSe2 monolayer with an As atom as substitutional for Mo atom (As(Mo) doped system) and an MoSe2 monolayer with As atom in an interstitial site in the hollow location of the center of one ring of the structure between the plane Mo atoms and the plane containing Se atoms (As interstitial system). We calculated the formation energy of various structures studied in Se-rich condition. We found that the As(Mo) doped system is a favorable configuration, whereas the As interstitial system is metastable. Different defects introduce midgap levels, which were interpreted according to the orbitals involved in their formation using the analysis of the band structure and DOS and PDOS of each system. The energy gap increases in all system structures and its value ranged between 1.5 eV and 1.73 eV, the Fermi level shifts toward the valence band for the Mo vacancy system, and As(Mo) doped system which suggests that it can be a p-type semiconductor, whereas Fermi level shifts to the conduction band for As interstitial system and suggests a n-type semiconductor behavior. The obtained results enable us to predict the possibility of using these systems in many applications, since it can be used in the As(Mo) doped system in photocatalysis or in photovoltaic applications in the visible light, and As interstitial system can be used in electronics applications in the infrared field.

Published: December 2024

Water security is a critical issue in rural coastal communities, and it has been proven to impact their health and socioeconomic productivity. Moreover, significant drought seasons may create prominent challenges for the communities. The objectives of this study are twofold: (1) to assess household water insecurity experiences and (2) to explore willingness to pay and ability to pay for better water supply for the Lok Dangkaan Village, Pitas district, a remote area with frequent drought climate in Sabah. A structured questionnaire was utilised in a cross-sectional survey of 45 households to gather information on demographics, socioeconomic status, and water-related concerns. The water insecurity was measured using the Household Water Insecurity Experiences Scale (HWISE). While the water consumption and affordability were measured by the ability to pay (ATP) and willingness to pay (WTP), with monthly water bills and water fee indicators respectively. Descriptive statistics and chi-square tests were used to analyze the data. The study found that most households engaged in fishing, have low incomes and limited access to basic amenities. Water quality is poor, though waterborne diseases are rare. Eighty-two percent of the households do not have access to clean water. The average estimated daily water consumption is 183.56 litres, with substantial variability. 75.6 percent of the households said they could afford to pay RM0.10 for every 1000 litres. On the other hand, their average monthly water bill during the dry season was RM121.67. The high level of water insecurity in Lok Dangkaan Village underscores the urgent need for improved water access and quality. While the forthcoming mini water treatment plant may address some issues, continued support and targeted interventions are necessary to enhance water security in the community.

Unveiling student perceptions: the role of computerised business simulations in fostering psychological empowerment among business students
Authors: Paulino Arroteia Nuno Filipe
Published: December 2024

Psychological Empowerment (PE) is a multidimensional construct critical for understanding how individuals perceive themselves, interact with their environments, and take actions to influence outcomes. While traditionally conceptualised as encompassing intrapersonal, interactional, and behavioural dimensions, this study employs exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to evaluate and refine the theoretical framework for PE. The research aimed to address limitations in existing models, which often overlook the multidimensionality of empowerment, by developing a scale aligned with its three theoretical dimensions. Conducted in the context of the RETO 2024 global business simulation competition, this study surveyed 451 participants from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds, analysing their experiences and perceptions of empowerment. The findings reveal that the empirical data support a two-factor model of PE rather than the originally hypothesized three-factor structure. The intrapersonal and behavioural dimensions converge into a unified factor—Cognitive-Behavioural Empowerment—capturing the interplay between self-perceptions and actions such as decision-making, leadership, and teamwork. The interactional dimension remains distinct, reflecting analytical and contextual skills essential for navigating complex environments. This refinement enhances the theoretical clarity and practical applicability of PE, providing a robust framework for evaluating and fostering empowerment in educational and professional contexts.
A Preliminary Organic Geochemical and Petrographical Investigation of Neyveli lignite (mine-1) to Understand the Depositional Environment and Hydrocarbon Source Characteristics.
Authors: Santosh Sneha , Mathews Runcie , Singh Bhagwan D.
Published: December 2024

The lignite deposit of Neyveli mine-1 associated with the Cuddalore formation (Miocene) of Cauvery Basin, South India is studied using a combination of organic geochemical (FTIR spectroscopy and GC-MS) and organic petrographical analyses to identify the composition and kerogen type to reconstruct its palaeoflora and palaeodepositional setting. Also, its rank, thermal maturity, and hydrocarbon source potential are identified. The huminite macerals (78.11 av. vol.%) were found to be the most abundant. The petrographical facies indices (GI-TPI, GWI-VI), Paq values, and Pr/n-C17 vs. Ph/n-C18 plot indicate a mixed type of organic matter deposited in a limno-telmatic regime under mesotrophic to rheotrophic hydrological conditions.  The presence of herbaceous plants is supported by a high percentage of detrohuminite, VI values, and mid-chain alkanes. The presence of ulminite, resinite, sporinite, suberinite and cutinite, fluorescing huminite, high CPI (avg. 3.16) and TAR values (avg. 17.27), high Pwax ratio (avg. 0.81) and high abundance of longer chain alkanes (n-C27 and n-C29), supports the presence of higher plants. Short-chain alkanes and alginite support algal input. The percentage of funginite (3.18 avg. vol.%) and the ACL values represent a warm and humid palaeoclimate. The Pr/Ph ratio and Pr/n-C17 vs Ph/n-C18 plot indicate the suboxic to anoxic redox conditions (transitional environment). Minimal peat fires and periodic flooding events contributed to the low rank. Hydroxyl (3656-3226 cm-1), aliphatic stretching and bending (2847-2954 cm-1, 1377-1451 cm-1), aromatic (1513-1615 cm-1) and carboxyl groups (1701-1709 cm-1) are obtained from FTIR spectra. The huminite reflectance measurement gives a rank of low-rank B (av. 0.37% Rr), and OEP values indicate immaturity. The different ternary diagrams and pseudo-Van Krevelen diagram indicate this lignite possesses admixed type-III/II kerogen which can generate heavy hydrocarbons. By also considering the presence of pre-oil solid bitumen, the Neyveli mine-1 lignite is identified as gas-prone and capable of oil generation.

Authors: Iqbaal S Danish , Ansari M Athar , Abedi Ali Jafar , Mehnaz Saira , Zubair Mohd Yasir , Ahmad Shahnawaz
Published: December 2024

Background and objectives: Adequate nutrition and a good dietary practice play an important role in recovery from tuberculosis (TB). Improper dietary practice and poor nutrition lead to low immunity in the host and thus increase the risk of active TB in addition to relapse and mortality. The objective of the study was to assess the dietary intake and its determinants in patients on anti-tubercular treatment.

Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, in four Designated Microscopic Centres under the administration of the District TB Cell of Aligarh district from January 2020 to December 2021. Adult TB patients undergoing treatment between the ages of 18 to 60 years were enrolled. A semi-structured questionnaire was used as a study tool. The 24-hour recall method was used for eliciting dietary intake as it had less recall bias. The sufficient and insufficient dietary cut offs were chosen from the Indian Council for Medical Research (ICMR) nutrient guidelines for TB patients. The data was analyzed by appropriate statistical tests.

Results: A total of 410 TB patients participated in the study. Majority (61.7%) of the patients were unemployed and 46.8% belonged to the lower middle class. Of the total cases, 83.2% patients were consuming energy below the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA). The protein intake was sub-optimal in 71%, while 52% were taking fat below RDA. Age, gender, and education of the participants were significantly associated (< 0.05) with their energy and protein intake.

Conclusions: The participants’ intake of nutrients was suboptimal compared to RDA. Thus, there is a need to improve the nutritional status of TB patients. Therefore, findings of the study could be utilised to plan programs for improved nutritional care for under privileged TB patients living in rural and urban areas.

The integration of advanced biometric security systems in modern vehicles has become crucial to enhance safety and user convenience. This paper presents the design and implementation of a Raspberry Pi-based facial recognition system for vehicle access control, utilizing the power of computer vision and machine learning to provide secure, keyless vehicle entry. The system employs a Raspberry Pi microcontroller, coupled with a camera module, to capture and analyze the driver's facial features. OpenCV, a widely-used computer vision library, is integrated with a pre-trained deep learning model to perform facial detection and recognition in real-time. The system compares the captured facial data with pre-registered user profiles stored in a secure database. Upon a successful match, the Raspberry Pi sends a signal to unlock the vehicle, ensuring seamless and secure access.

The necessity of adopting facial recognition technology for vehicle access lies in its non-invasive, hands-free nature, providing a more convenient and secure alternative to traditional key-based systems. Moreover, it adds an additional layer of security, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access through stolen keys or fob duplication.

Experimental results demonstrate that the facial recognition system achieves a high accuracy rate of 95% under various lighting conditions and user angles. The average processing time for facial recognition is less than 1 second, ensuring swift vehicle access. Additionally, the system exhibits robust performance even with multiple registered users, confirming its scalability and practicality for real-world applications.

This research highlights the potential of Raspberry Pi as a cost-effective, efficient platform for implementing facial recognition systems in vehicles, paving the way for further innovations in automotive security.

Nickel plating is used for decorative, engineering, and electroforming purposes. The typical base metals for nickel plating are steel, copper alloys, and zinc alloys. Steel and copper alloy substrates are usually plated directly, but copper underplating is required for plating on zinc. Stainless steel, aluminum, magnesium, and plastics can also be nickel plated, but they require special treatment before plating. Nickel coatings for engineering applications are usually smooth and matt, while the decorative coatings are lustrous, smooth, and bright. Bright nickel coatings are plated with thin chromium coating to prevent nickel tarnishing

This study aims at developing a model that would enable us to predict the failure times of machines in cement manufacturing process. The knowledge of machine failures is very vital in maintenance of machines in order to enhance production and minimize on costs of maintenance. In this context, Weibull distribution, Least Squares (LS) method and Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method are applied to assess failure distributions. 167 machine failure data were used in this study and analyzed with Minitab the software. It was concluded that the failure times follow Weibull distribution and the LS and MLE methods were used to estimate the parameters of the distribution in order to check the fitness. Thus, applying LS method, it is possible to get β = 2.07 and η = 971.7, while applying MLE method, results obtain as β = 2.17 and η = 966. It was noted that these values are rather close and both methods gave almost the same results.
THE USE OF CEFR IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE EDUCATION REFORM: FOREIGN TEXTBOOKS AND CULTURAL ISSUES
Authors: YAHAYA NURHAFIZAH , WONG JIA WEI
Published: December 2024

English language education in Malaysia has undergone reforms to meet economic growth needs and nurture human capital for international connections. Since 2017, foreign textbooks have been introduced to match CEFR standards, but concerns have been raised about their cultural impact. This paper evaluates the cultural elements in CEFR textbooks from primary to secondary levels in Malaysia using a qualitative synthesis method and cross-verification. A total of 13 journal articles were reviewed, revealing that foreign textbooks depict more foreign cultures such as celebration, seasons, transportation, food, attire, characters' names, and Spanish vocabulary. However, some elements are culturally neutral. The use of foreign textbooks promotes diversity, authentic language usage, and opens students' horizons, making them more appreciative of others. Teachers are encouraged to be creative in adapting materials if foreign elements are deemed challenging for students.

INTERTEXTUALITY FROM THE DISCOURSE LINGUISTICS: THE STORIES OF BADIAA AMIN AS A MODEL
Authors: GHANEM HANAA SALIM , RAJB MAMON YOUSUF
Published: December 2024

This research examines the diversity of intertextual techniques in the narrative works of Iraqi writer Badiaa Amin, attributed to her rich cultural heritage and encyclopedic knowledge. Amin's stories engage with familiar texts, incorporating elements from other worlds that transform the narrative with new meanings. This interweaving creates a unique "textual mosaic" shaped by content, context, and events. Significantly, the study employs a novel approach to linguistic intertextuality based on the discourse analysis framework of German critic Kirsten Adamzik. By employing discourse analysis, it explores the interconnectedness of texts and the interactive relationship between the invoked text and the new text. Additionally, it delves into the symbolic dimensions linking these texts and examines the metaphorical relationships among them, classifying these intertextualities based on their modalities. The research also considers how these invoked texts relate to the ideologies Amin seeks to convey in her stories.
