Introduction. This article discusses a modern method of monitoring power transmission lines (power lines) using Arduino-based sensors.

Goal. The main idea is that the integration of various sensors allows you to collect and transmit data on the condition of lines in real time, which in turn helps to prevent emergencies and ensure sustainable energy supply.

Materials and methods. The device was assembled from components based on the Arduino ESP32 NODEMCU, the WLAN WiFi Bluetooth 30pin CP2102 module on the breadboard. Sensors such as HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor, DS18B20 temperature sensor, DS18B20 temperature sensor, SW-420 vibration sensor are assembled on the board.

Results and discussion. The article emphasizes the need to create a database where all measured parameters will be received. The presence of such a database allows not only to collect statistics, but also to use analytical tools to predict and prevent possible accidents. Each sensor transmits data at a preset frequency, which provides the necessary responsiveness in situations requiring instant response. The content of the work focuses on the practical significance of the developed method. The system is able to reduce the response time to accidents, thereby reducing power outages and financial losses. This solution also allows you to monitor conditions that contribute to the formation of ice, which proactively eliminates potential threats.

Conclusion. In general, the article presents a thorough analysis of the application of modern technologies for monitoring power lines, demonstrating the effectiveness and economic feasibility of implementing such systems in the energy sector.

Introduction. The disparate, fragmented nature of corporate asset quality management and assessment methods, reflecting only certain, not all aspects of the state of corporate assets, necessitates the formation of a corporate asset quality managementmethodology based on an innovative view.

Goal. The purpose of the study is to form the methodology for managing and evaluating the quality of corporate assets based on a set of general and special principles, combining a set of scientific and practical approaches, methodologies and methods, tools for managing and evaluating assets.

Materials and methods. In the course of the research, the works of Russian and foreign authors reflecting the content of the asset management process of commercial organizations, having a fragmentary nature, not reflecting the complex of problems manifested in asset management, are studied.

Results and discussion. The study found that the quality of corporate assets integrates the parameters of liquidity, profitability, riskiness, etc. It is argued that from the standpoint of the portfolio approach, the quality of each corporate asset affects the overall quality of the asset portfolio. Differences between the quality of corporate assets and the quality of their management are established. The methodological basis for studying the quality of corporate assets is considered, integrating historical-genetic, classification, complex, systemic, logical, portfolio, functional, strategic, conceptual, cost, scientific approaches, each of which is based on general and special principles.

Conclusion. As a result, the authors’ view on the formation of a methodology for managing and evaluating the quality of corporate assets is presented, synthesizing complementary approaches, models, methodologies, methods, methods, techniques, tools for managing the quality of corporate assets, grouped according to various criteria, based on general and special principles.
Object-topological modeling of electrical networks
Authors:   North-Caucasus Federal University, Golovinskii I. A.
Published: February 2025

Abstract. Introduction. The Common Information Model (CIM) is the conceptual basis for modeling electrical networks and automating their management. It allows building object-oriented models of electrical networks, but does not provide efficient tools for analyzing their structure and state. This analysis primarily requires the analysis of the topology of electrical network graphs. A large number and variety of algorithms for such analysis were developed; there is necessity to classify and simplify them.

Goal. To analyze the structure and state of a complex distributed system, the author introduces the concept of a structural graph of its objectoriented model. The vertices of this graph represent objects of the classes used in the model, and the edges represent associations between objects. Analysis of the topology of the structural graph of a model of a complex system becomes the basis for the analysis of its structure and state.

Materials and Methods. This approach is called an object-topological. It supplies the object-oriented approach with tools for analyzing the topology of structural graphs of object-oriented models. Classification and simplification of graph analysis algorithms is carried out with selection of a minimum set of basic operations on graphs and expression of algorithms through these operations. The first means constructing some graph algebra, the second allows one to interpret topological analysis algorithms as computations of graphs using the operations of this algebra.

Results and discussion. Examples of applying the object-topological approach and graph algebra to automating the solution of operational dispatch control problems are considered: tracing circuits on diagrams, interlocking switching operations, and managing the topology of the regime computational model. Their algorithms are expressed by graph algebra formulas that are convenient for programming.

Conclusion. The object-topological approach enhanced by graph algebra allows replacing traditional verbose descriptions of algorithms for analyzing power grid models with laconic formulas. This significantly simplifies programming and verifying of algorithms, reduces the time and cost of program development, and increases the reliability of programs.
The development of civic identity with junior schoolchildren as a key aspect of patriotism: analysis of Russian folk art potential
Authors:   Yelets State University named after I. A. Bunin, Voishcheva E. L.
Published: February 2025

Introduction. The issue of forming the civic identity of younger schoolchildren is one of the key aspects of the development of patriotism among the younger generation. The article draws attention to the fact that primary school children are inthe process of forming their personality and self-consciousness and it is in this period that it is especially important to moderate the process of forming their civic identity.

Goal. The article studies the potential of Russian folk art in terms of patriotic education of junior schoolchildren, specifically the formation of their civic identity.

Materials and methods. The research is carried out on the basis of analysis and generalisation of modern scientific works in the sphere of patriotic education. A complex of diagnostic methods is implemented. They allow diagnosing the multicomponent structure of children’s civic identity; various methods of studying Russian folk art from the point of view of forming junior schoolchildren’s civic identity are used.

Results and discussion. The study presents the data of experimental work, proving that folk art is a powerful tool in the formation of civic identity of junior schoolchildren, helping them to realize that they belong to the Russian culture and nation, developing their emotional sphere and engendering patriotic feelings in their souls. The author has developed and described a systematic mode of work in primary school with various genres of folk art: songs, fairy tales, epic ballades (bylinas), proverbs, and ditties, allowing children to immerse themselves in the culture of their country, to study and become imbued with national traditions and values of the Russian people.

Conclusion. The author proves that it is very important for a teacher to use folk art in the educational process and to create conditions for its active mastering by children, which will help to form civic identity with junior schoolchildren and make a significant contribution to the development of patriotism in Russian society in general.

Published: February 2025

Abstract. Introduction. In many cases, modern economic conditions reveal imbalance in economic, social and environmental factors, which, in fact, contradicts the concept of sustainable development, which assumes equal consideration of these components. Given the importance of environmental imperatives and their complex impact on the social and economic sphere, it is necessary to project the prerequisites for sustainable development on existing asset valuation mechanisms.

Goal. The study aims to develop methods and approaches that allow the use of indicators characterizing the level of sustainable development and integrating them into modern financial reporting system.

Materials and methods. Practical implementation of this approach involves the use of a balance sheet equation that allows determining capital in the form of a difference between the amount of assets and liabilities, which significantly changes the understanding of profit as an economic category.

Results and discussion. Originally, the transformation of financial reporting in the direction of sustainable development can be guided by the index of adjusted net savings and the static balance theory associated with the physical form of understanding capital, which will increase its reliability and information content for various groups of users. At the same time, a strict focus on cost and price parameters, including fair value, does not reliably reflect the real volume of those benefits and values that form the basis of any sustainable development.

Conclusion. A more productive solution to this problem is the simultaneous use of platforms, including digital ones, which allow simultaneously forming a system of indicators and parameters of financial and non-financial reporting while maintaining a clear focus on the interests of specific user groups.
Jimat dan Pengobatan dengan Ayat Al-Qur’an (Studi Terhadap Kitab Tajul Muluk Oleh Sheykh Ismail Al-Asyi)

Published: February 2025

The Qur'an can be used as a cure (Shifa') for various diseases, both physical and non-physical diseases and can be used as a mediator that has magical powers. Talisman in philosophical view, an influence over the human soul. This is done in an unnatural way that can affect a person's body. But the influences that arise, sometimes from the state of the spirit: such as the warmth that arises and the sense of excitement and joy, or sometimes and other psychic perceptions such as those arising from anxiety. The amulet in the process of its reaction seeks help from spiritual properties, the secrets of numbers, special qualities that manifest up to the fusion of the spirit with the substance of the body. Nowadays, the science of Qur'anic amulets is called magical letters. This science is used in the conventional sense which assumes that these amulets, have an inherent character or the secrets of the activities contained in the letters have a measure of calculation taken from the letters that contain the secrets contained in the creatures and nature. Medicine in the Kitab Taj al-Mulk is discussed separately. Some of the diseases and how to treat them are explained clearly and in great detail. Starting from the medicinal ingredients used, the dosage to the process of processing them to how to use the medicine is also explained in great detail. The Book of Tājul Muluk is the work of Sheikh Ismail bin Abdul Muttalib Al-Ashi, which was completed in 1249 in Mecca. The contents of this book include knowing the year and the moon, establishing a country, the conditions for building a house, knowing the good land, the relationship between husband and wife, ta'bir dreams, ta'bir earthquakes, ta'bir lunar eclipses, medicines taken from mujarrabat and so on. This book is not a compulsory book in Dayah or pondok, but it is studied by santri who have studied at a high level or they have become teachers. Kitab taj al-Mulk uses the method of clinical Sufism, which is part of the teaching of Sufism about the symbolism of the letters of the Qur'an used for treatment and divination. In Arabic, amulets are called at- tamā'im, which is an object deliberately made by a shaman, which is believed to contain magic and can reject all kinds of diseases for people who believe in it. Tangkal in Arabic is called ar-raqqī, which is defined as an object made by a shaman that is believed to be able to reject disease, evil spirits, and witchcraft.
Pragmatic accommodation in judging event culmination
Authors: Xu Jingying , Schmitt Cristina
Published: February 2025

This study investigates Mandarin speakers’ acceptability of telic descriptions for incomplete situations, focusing on the role of pragmatic accommodation. Previ- ous research (Xu & Schmitt to appear a, to appear b) has shown that in judging event culmination, when two out three objects were fully consumed or created and the third object was partially affected (e.g., a girl eating two cookies and taking a bite from the third one), participants were able to restrict the domain of the definite/demonstrative DP (but not the noun phrases with the numeral three) to refer only to the fully consumed or created objects and, we argued, because of that, tended to accept the description as matching the event. In the present study, we examined a different type of (non)-culmination in which all objects were partially consumed or created (e.g., a girl taking a bite from each of three cookies/partially building three houses), a context where domain restriction of this type is not possible. Sur- prisingly, participants accepted sentences with both demonstrative and numeral direct objects as “good enough” descriptions of the event. These findings further challenge the idea of a general mechanism for the acceptance of telic descriptions in (non)-culminating situations, and instead support specific effects depending on how different ingredients of aspectual composition and visual context interact.

Authors: Nasution Fikri Fahlevi , Mainil Rahmat Iman , Taib Ishkrizat , Martin Awaludin
Published: February 2025

Indonesia is one of the main shrimp exporters with a total production of 1.21 million tons or IDR 79.21 trillion in 2021. However, only 20.89% of this production is exported due to technological limitations in maintaining shrimp freshness due to the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and yeast. This research aims to develop a quick freezing system using the Air Blast Freezing (ABF) method in a cascade refrigeration system with environmentally friendly refrigerants, namely R290 and R32, at temperatures up to -40℃. The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of the air blast freezer system at several cooling loads, evaporator fan flow rate and refrigerant pressure at the HTC compressor. Tests were conducted with variations in shrimp weight (1kg, 3kg, and 5kg), air flow rate at the evaporator fan (3.1 m/s, 3.2 m/s, and 3.3 m/s), and refrigerant pressure at the compressor (12 bar, 13 bar, and 14 bar). The results showed that the COP (Coefficient of Performance) increased with increasing shrimp weight and airflow velocity, with the highest pressure at 14 bar providing the best performance. The evaporator temperature reached -42.37℃, allowing effective freezing of 5kg shrimp with a COP of 1.334.

Institutional prerequisites for improving the regulation of sustainable agricultural development
Authors:   Michurinsk State Agrarian University, Klimentova E.A. , Dubovitsky A.A. ,   Michurinsk State Agrarian University
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to the study of the interaction of the quality of the institutional environment with the implemented agrarian policy in Russia in order to substantiate the institutional prerequisites for improving the regulation of development of agriculture. The modern system of sustainable development management in Russia functions within the framework of the current state policy, in the fundamental legal documents of which the vagueness of goals and ways to achieve them is often fixed. The stated goals are often general and declarative in nature and only state commitment to these areas, the continuity of which is quite difficult to trace, as well as to assess the degree of their achievement. In accordance with this, an important task of improving the regulation of sustainable development in agriculture is the institutional improvement of legislative norms by appropriately filling the legal framework for regulating agricultural development with insufficient elements that contribute to stimulating policy measures in accordance with the set goals.

Authors:   Vologda Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Shabunova A.A. , Kozhevnikov S.A. ,   Vologda Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: February 2025

The article examines the problems and substantiates the priorities for ensuring the connectivity of the Northwestern Federal District space from the perspective of a framework approach. It is substantiated that the key development trends are forced locational compression of space, strengthening of center-peripheral differences, which leads to the degradation of a number of nodal and non-nodal elements of the framework. The authors substantiate the need to form a polycentric spatial framework of the NWFD by developing the potential of the "second-tier" agglomerations, supporting settlements and implementing interregional and inter-municipal projects based on them.

1.1mm = 44 mJy) submillimeter galaxy MM J154506.4−344318 in emission lines at 48.5 and 97.0 GHz, respectively. We also identify part of an emission line at ≈218.3 GHz using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Together with photometric redshift estimates and the ratio between the line and infrared luminosities, we conclude that the emission lines are most likely to be the J = 2–1, 4–3, and 9–8 transitions of 12CO at redshift z = 3.753 ± 0.001.

Published: February 2025

Schnabelia jiuzhaigouensis C. Liu, F. Zhao & C.L. Xiang, a new species from north-eastern Sichuan, China, is described, based on both morphological and molecular phylogenetic evidence. Morphologically, the new species is mostly similar to S. terniflora, but can be readily distinguished by its habit, ovate to lanceolate-ovate leaf blades, the presence of 5–8 lateral veins on each side of the mid-rib and distinct characteristics of the floral structure, including oblong upper lip and lateral lobes of the lower lip, with the middle lobe being cuneate. In addition, the nutlets are puberulent and lack reticulate venation. Molecular phylogenetic analyses place the new species at a basal position within the genus Schnabelia. The new species is categorised as Data Deficient (DD) according to the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria. A key to all species of Schnabelia is also provided.

The Gaoligong Mountain Range in Yunnan Province, China, is characterized by its large variation in elevation and topography, together with its wide latitudinal range, resulting in extremely high levels of biodiversity. Studies show that the amphibian diversity of the Gaoligong Mountain Range is largely underestimated, especially in the south. During herpetological surveys in 2023 and 2024, three specimens of Leptobrachella were collected from the mountain at Tongbiguan Provincial Nature Reserve. Subsequent morphological comparisons and a phylogenetic reconstruction revealed that these specimens belonged to a previously unknown and morphologically distinct lineage of Leptobrachella, which we formally describe. Our discovery brings the number of species in the genus to 108, 44 of which occur in China, and seven on Gaoligong Mountain Range. This result confirms the underestimated amphibian diversity of the Gaoligong Mountain Range, especially in Tongbiguan Provincial Nature Reserve, where multiple sympatric congeneric species occur, including four species of Leptobrachella, five species and a putative new species of Xenophrys, and three species of Polypedates. These findings also highlight the need for future research to investigate the mechanisms of sympatric and syntopic coexistence.
Variación fonética y perdurabilidad de un modelo lingüístico: del canon poético cancioneril a la eclosión del romancero nuevo
Authors: Pla Colomer Francisco Pedro
Published: February 2025

En investigaciones que hunden sus raíces en la tradición filológica iniciada por Ramón Menéndez Pidal se ha empleado el estudio de la métrica a la hora de caracterizar el estado variacional del componente fónico de la lengua en cada una de sus etapas históricas. En esta misma línea, la presente investigación pretende ser una contribución descriptivo-analítica de los rasgos fonético-fonológicos subyacentes en la documentación conservada, estrechamente vinculada con el entorno cortesano del cuatrocientos y su pervivencia, a modo de modelo lingüístico, en los romances de Luis de Góngora. A partir de la aplicación sistemática de la presente herramienta filológica, es posible obtener resultados de rigor a la hora de interpretar la materialidad gráfica conservada y esbozar, aunque sea mínimamente, esa suerte de estándar lingüístico a la luz de los tratados poéticos y las primeras obras de codificación lingüística.

Introduction. Photographs and Algorithms
Authors: Blaschke Estelle , Bonhomme Max , Joschke Christian , Somaini Antonio
Published: February 2025

This issue of Transbordeur explores the reciprocal relationship between photography and algorithms—artificial intelligence (AI) models, in particular—be it for the purposes of analyzing, modifying, or generating images. The issue’s introduction presents an overview of research conducted since the 1960s at the intersection of IT, computer graphics technologies (CGI) and artistic experimentation, delineating an archaeology of the algorithmic image. We look at how photography itself has been shaken to its core by the computational turn, in terms of both its practices and its ontology, and examine the fundamental role that photographic images have played as a reference point in the design of analytical and generative AI models, with “photorealism” as the goal standing on the horizon.

Ethical Considerations in Sustainability Reporting and Assurance
Authors: Adhegaonkar Vikas Ramesh , Goswami Chinmoy , Thakur Abhijeet
Published: February 2025

This chapter discusses why ethics are essential in sustainability reporting assurance. It shows that clear, accurate ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reports build trust and help prevent “greenwashing,” which is when companies give false information about their environmental efforts. Ethical reporting goes beyond just following the law; it helps companies create long-term relationships with stakeholders and improves their reputation. The chapter also discusses the difficulties companies face in being ethical, especially in regions with fewer regulations, and highlights the value of third-party verification to build credibility. Ethical reporting can lead to loyal customers, attract investors, and help tackle big global issues like climate change. With new laws on the horizon, companies that report ethically will build trust and continuously improve, creating a stronger, more sustainable future.

Epigenetic of Drug Resistance in Neuropsychiatric Diseases
Authors: Shaikh Zuber Peermohammed , Bhise Satish Balkrishna
Published: February 2025

The recent interest for the role of epigenetics in the brain has led researchers to explore the possibility that drugs can modify epigenetic processes involved in psychiatric disorders. So far, several psychiatric drugs have been found to influence epigen¬etic mechanisms, suggesting that this may partially explain their mechanism of action. Moreover, the therapeutic potential of experimental compounds that specifically target epigenetic mechanisms is extensively investigated. We aim to give a broad overview of the current knowledge of drugs that modify epigen¬etic changes in psychiatric disorder. “epigenetics” is used to describe “the study of stable alterations in gene expression potential that arise dur¬ing development and cell proliferation.” Epigenetic processes underlie embryonic cellular development and differentiation, but they are also important in mature mammals, either at random or under influence of the environment.

Uncover Ethical Issues in Neurodisorder Diagnosis Advancing Medical Research Through Neuroscience
Authors: Singh Bhupinder , Kaunert Christian , Lal Sahil , Arora Manmeet Kaur , Chandra Saurabh
Published: February 2025

Neuroscience discoveries are revolutionizing knowledge of the brain and opening the door to possible cures for illnesses that were thought to be incurable. But these developments also bring up difficult moral issues such whether it is ethically acceptable to modify memories, improve cognitive function, or read minds. Psychiatry addresses complex moral questions. The conditions that psychiatrists treat frequently jeopardize the characteristics that make people unique, such as autonomy, accountability and personal development. These conditions typically result in severe pain, substantial disability, and societal shame, despite the fact that those who suffer from them exhibit incredible fortitude and resiliency. While there is ethical relevance to any medical activity, psychiatry is unique in this way. This chapter focuses on the diverse arena of the ethical issues in neurodisorder diagnosis advancing medical research through neuroscience with computational intelligence focusing on compassionate psychiatric treatments.
Analysis of Movie Trailers Based on a WSH Game Prototype
Authors: Costuchen Alexia Larchen , Reyes-Torres Agustin , Tordera Yllescas Juan Carlos
Published: February 2025

This chapter explores the pedagogical potential of using movie trailers in combination with a WSH card game specifically designed to promote critical literacy among university students majoring in English with advanced foreign language skills. Movie trailers were chosen as a tool to promote writing skills because they tend to capture the viewer's attention and provide brief information without telling the whole story. While a video provided multimodal input, the textual output (a critical trailer review) was analyzed using linguistic, cognitive, and developmental dimensions. The experimental technique involved watching a movie trailer and writing a review based on a set of guiding questions on printed gamified cards designed with the 5W1H (what, who, when, where, why, and how). Its efficiency was evaluated both qualitatively, through opinion-based questionnaires and, quantitatively, by comparing rubric scores between two groups. The control group (after watching the trailer) received a conventional writing task based on the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).
From Policy to Practice Implementing Equitable Literacy
Authors: Lata Kusum
Published: February 2025

This chapter delves into the challenges and strategies surrounding the implementation of literacy policies in India, particularly in marginalized communities. Despite significant increases in national literacy rates—from 52.2% in 1991 to 77.7% in 2021—India faces persistent inequalities in literacy outcomes. This chapter examines the key obstacles that impede the transition from policy intent to practical impact, including infrastructural deficiencies, socio-economic barriers, and bureaucratic inefficiencies. By analyzing successful case studies, such as Pratham's Read India campaign and the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya scheme, the chapter highlights effective models for bridging the policy-practice gap. Additionally, the chapter provides evidence-based recommendations aimed at improving policy coordination, teacher quality, and community engagement to foster an inclusive and equitable literacy environment.

This chapter explores gender-sensitive literacy policies to address barriers to women's education in Sub-Saharan Africa, emphasizing distance learning. It examines systemic challenges such as socio-economic inequalities, cultural norms, early marriage, and digital resource gaps. Case studies from Botswana and Zambia highlight initiatives like community-based learning centers, flexible schedules, vocational training, and culturally relevant content in local languages. Digital literacy programs, partnerships with telecommunications providers, and advocacy for inclusive policies demonstrate the importance of accessible and affordable education. Teacher training in gender-sensitive pedagogy and male community engagement further create supportive learning environments. By aligning with Sustainable Development Goals 4 and 5, the chapter provides a framework for inclusive and sustainable literacy programs that empower women, enhance socio-economic participation, and transform lives in underserved regions.
[Regeneration and Rehabilitation. Plastic surgery experience in a rehabilitation centre]
Authors: Scevola Silvia , Tresoldi Marco Mario , Faga Angela
Published: February 2025

Regenerative Surgery aims at the restoration of the loss of structures and functions of the body using four innovative approaches: physical energies, biomaterials, cell products and stem cells. The Authors provide an overview of their experience with Regenerative Surgery procedures at the Plastic Surgery Unit of the University of Pavia, Istituti Clinici Scientifici Salvatore Maugeri, in a 10 years period, from 2007 to 2017, for the treatment of extensive acute soft tissue loss, chronic ulcers, disabling scars and degenerative pathologies with different aethiology. Regenerative Surgery is a well-established and effective practice in a modern Plastic Surgery Unit. Regenerative methods are effectively used both as exclusive options in case of absolute contraindication to traditional surgery and as alternative to the latter in order to provide the same outcome with less invasiveness or in combination with minor traditional surgical procedures to reduce the overall surgical burden.
[Physical activity, a tool for chronic disease prevention and management]
Authors: Capodaglio Edda Maria
Published: February 2025

Physical activity is a key element in the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of many diseases. In the context of an adequate lifestyle, its practice amplifies the health benefits and increases the fitness, and furthermore counteracts the development and progression of chronic non-communicable diseases, modulating many risk factors. Its function is important in all life cycles and helps to keep the functional capabilities and independence even with aging. While inadequate physical activity (due to a sedentary lifestyle) is currently the fourth leading cause of mortality in developed countries, being one of the main public health issues, strong scientific evidences show that a regular and sufficient dose of physical activity reduces by about 30% the risk of premature death, cardiovascular disease and stroke, type II diabetes, colon and breast cancer, depression. Several guidelines and recommendations define the type, intensity, frequency and duration of physical activity, and many lifestyle preventative interventions prove its effectiveness and sustainability. Although so far a minority of the population actually adheres to the recommendations, the epidemiological strenght of lifestyle-oriented programs is considerable: quitting sedentariness, even low doses of physical activity are protective for health and reduce by about 22 % the risk of premature death. Physical activity is also an important therapeutic tool for patients with cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes 11, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases; an appropriate dosage reduces the risk of recurrence and disease progression, improves the control of clinical parameters and increases the patient's quality of life.
