The diversity of species and the unique beauty values found in each bird cause many people to like birds. The high public interest in keeping birds encourages various contests and competitions. The relationship between humans and birds is called ethnoornithology. This research aims to determine the diversity or ethnoornithological diversity of economically valuable birds at the Toddopuli Hobby Market, Makassar. The methods used in this research are observation and in-depth interviews. The results obtained in this research are that there are doves with the highest percentage of birds in the hobby market, namely 32.26%. Meanwhile, the most expensive bird is the Bali starling, which has a price of 10 million rupiah. The most prominent family is the Columbidae family, with 857 individuals; the smallest is the Corvidae family, with one. Based on data obtained from 43 bird species, 13 are categorized as protected according to IUCN, CITES and PLHK. This research concludes that there are two protected birds according to PLKH, two bird types according to CITES Appendix II and one type Appendix l, as well as five types in the IUCN category; one type has Vulnerable (VU) status, three types have Endangered (EN) status, and one the type as Critically Endangered (CR) status. Most birds traded are still classified as Least Concern (LC). The majority of birds traded are in demand because of their singing.
Multi-sensor data fusion and nonlinear programming-based path prediction for escaping from engagement in combat
Authors: Gökal Enver Nurullah , Sakarya Ufuk
Published: July 2024

One of the most important factors that bring success in modern warfare is to show air superiority. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have now become an essential component of military air operations. UAVs can be operated in two ways: by pilots from remote control stations or by flying autonomously. Under the condition of disconnection from the control station, UAVs have trouble maintaining navigation and maneuverability. By applying multisensor data fusion, an escape path prediction algorithm was developed and presented as an engagement escape method in this study. To develop the algorithm for prediction of the optimal escape route, data from various sensors are collected and processed under the influence of noise. The data from the distance and angle sensors are interpreted in the Extended Kalman Filter and estimations are made. The instant optimal escape route is created by applying the constrained optimization method on the estimations made. The main motivation of this study is developing a deterministic-based method to get the certification of it in aviation. Therefore, instead of stochastic-based learning approaches, a deterministic approach is preferred. Nonlinear programming is used as the constraint optimization method because the constraints and objective function are nonlinear. In the selected scenarios, it can be seen in the simulation results that the proposed method shows a promising result in terms of escape from engagement.

Authors: Jayswal Anurag , Baranwal Ayushi , Arana-Jiménez Manuel
Published: July 2024

This paper is devoted to study robust efficiency in terms of variational inequality for a class of multi-dimensional multi-objective first-order PDE-constrained fractional control optimization problems with data uncertainty (MMFP). We derive a robust controlled vector variational inequality (VI) together with its weak form and discuss equivalence between the solutions of (VI) and (MMFP) via imposing the suitable assumptions. Later on, we study a sufficient condition for the robust weak efficient solution of (MMFP) to be its robust efficient solution under the strict convexity assumption and give some applications to illustrate the established results.

Authors: Jovanović Miroslav , Kojić Mladen , Jotić Slaviša , Žnidaršič Vinko
Published: July 2024

This paper undertakes a comparative analysis of the content of combat orders in the Yugoslav People’s Army and operational orders in the Serbian Armed Forces. Utilizing methods of content analysis and comparative analysis, this study identifies key differences and similarities between the two documents, shedding light on their respective advantages and disadvantages. While both documents serve to provide guidance and direction to military units, they differ significantly in structure, language, and emphasis. The analysis reveals that certain points of combat orders correspond to specific points of operational orders in terms of content. However, the operational order offers a more comprehensive assessment of the enemy and places a greater emphasis on decentralized execution compared to the combat order. Notable differences include the level of detail provided, with Yugoslav People’s Army combat orders being more verbose and reflecting a centralized command structure, whereas Serbian Armed Forces orders prioritize brevity and clarity. Despite these disparities, both documents underscore the importance of mission accomplishment, personnel welfare, and adherence to legal and ethical standards. They also recognize the need for adaptability and flexibility in dynamic operational environments.
An Overview of the Most Effective Technical Means Used for Various Military Engineering Mission, with Highlights on Their Interoperability
Authors: Popescu Stelian
Published: July 2024

We could mention that currently we cannot speak, at the level of the NATO Alliance, of the existence of interoperability of engineering structures, from all partner armies, in terms of providing them with high-performance technical means, intended to ensure timely and efficient engineering support. This is based on the analysis we carried out on ensuring the interoperability of engineering structures participating in multinational missions and exercises, from the perspective of providing them with modern technical means, in order to fulfill the engineering support missions, after some exchanges with partners from Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the multinational exercises that colonel Mircea VLADU led as director or co-director, between 2011 and 2013 in Romania, Hungary and Croatia. On these occasions, we were able to as certain that the engineering structures of the armies that were part of the Warsaw Treaty are predominantly equipped with technical engineering means from 80s, some purchased from the former USSR and others manufactured within their own defense industries, a situation that continued even after the integration of the respective states into NATO, as a result of the allocation of some percentages of the GDP, below the level of the commitments and at the same time the support with insufficient funds of the endowment proposals with efficient means, according to NATO standards. Considering these elements, we would like to further present some considerations aimed at equipping NATO engineering structures with the most efficient technical means for the execution of engineering research operations.
Analysis Regarding the Relationship Between the Leader and the Team Members in a Production Company in Romania
Authors: Miricescu Dan , Todăriţă Elida-Tomița
Published: July 2024

The organization is by nature a complex system based on the unity of a larger or smaller group of people who have a single common goal, namely the fulfillment of the main objectives of the organization through professional activities that lead to maximum efficiency in the shortest time and with long-term effects. In addition to this goal, we must add the creation of an optimal work environment, the creation of a favorable image, the creation of prestige, and last but not least the good coordination of leaders. Solving tasks at work becomes much easier when team members constantly collaborate with leaders. Therefore, the general objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between leaders and team members within an organization with a production profile in Romania. Thus, 12 people who occupy different management positions were chosen. A questionnaire based on a quantitative analysis was used as a working tool. It consisted of 20 questions (19 closed questions and one open-ended question). The questionnaire was distributed directly (online) using the Google Forms platform.

Authors: Merciu Florentina-Cristina , Păunescu Cornel , Merciu George-Laurenţiu , Vintilă Marian-Andrei
Published: July 2024

The Romanian industrial heritage experienced a variety of conversions in the post-socialist period in the context of deindustrialization as a result of advantages represented by the large size of the buildings and sites correlated with the flexibility of adaptive reuse, their location in the proximity of the central areas of the cities. At the same time, some industrial monuments were demolished, and office spaces or residential projects were built on their site. The aim of the paper is to analyze sites and buildings of industrial heritage, located in large cities (municipalities of Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca), which have registered conversions under the impact of urban development factors (accelerated dynamics of services, residential projects). The authors also selected examples of cultural reuse of industrial monuments analyzed from the perspective of integrated urban planning. The paper is significant because it is focused on the identification and discussion of best practice models related to the adaptive reuse of industrial heritage assets. The practical side of this paper is related to the presentation of the importance of sustainable reuse of industrial monuments that highlight their patrimonial values and contribute to meeting the needs of the local community.

Title Legal Aspects in Approaching the National Mobilization System from the Administrative Perspective
Authors: Stoian Alexandru
Published: July 2024

The state of mobilization represents the totality of extraordinary measures determined by intrinsic and extrinsic factors, and may be declared simultaneously with the establishment of the state of siege or the declaration of the state of war. According to the regulations in force, upon the appearance or imminence of a serious threat that may affect the sovereignty, independence and unity of the state, the territorial integrity of the country and constitutional democracy, measures can be instituted that target the political, economic, social, administrative, diplomatic, legal and military fields. The complexity of the mobilization is supported by the existence of a national system of mobilization that includes management and execution structures that have attributions in the field of mobilization, structures that benefit from the resources, infrastructure and related relations, allocated according to the law. The resizing of the public administration during the state of demobilization does not only take into account the structural component - the authorities and public institutions with the role of leading and executing the national mobilization system - but also the functional component that calls on the human, material and financial resources that are secured and used in the provided situations.
Team Size and its Influence on the Teamwork and Communication
Authors: Bumbuc Ştefania
Published: July 2024

The paper examines communication dynamics within organizations, focusing on the influence of team size on communication patterns and work characteristics. In Romanian organizations, vertical communication prevails due to high power distance and collectivist mentality. Team size significantly impacts communication clarity, frequency, and formality. Smaller teams tend to have clearer, more direct communication, fostering deeper relationships among members. Larger teams feature structured communication but may suffer from reduced individual participation and satisfaction. Studies suggest optimal team sizes vary based on task complexity, with smaller teams excelling in complex tasks and larger teams in structured environments. Effective teams exhibit balanced communication patterns, with active participation from all members and direct interactions beyond formal roles. Communication patterns strongly predict team success, alongside individual skills and task context. Understanding these dynamics helps organizations tailor team structures and communication strategies for optimal performance, considering both the advantages and challenges posed by team size.
The Role and Importance of Interactive Methods in Stimulating Teaching Activities with Medical Students
Authors: Paşca Maria-Dorina
Published: July 2024

The teacher-student relationship may represent, in certain situations, the key of achieving didactic activities. Those, if carried out during the appropriate pedagogical time (course and / or seminar) could determine the existence of a new psycho-pedagogical attitude and behavior, aiming primarily at the teaching-learning method, but also the interactive participation and co-participation of the two actors directly involved in this stimulus-creative approach. In this context, the existence of applicative exercises/play in certain disciplines in socio-human behavior (specifically-medical psychology, medical sociology, doctor-patient communication) determines but also valorizes a new educational behavior, namely, teacher-student communication and interrelation vs student-teacher. Thus, by catching the student’s attention, stimulating his / her thinking, imagination and volitional-emotional values we can make educational sequences that also enhance “freshmen” experience from year I, building up and defining the whole experience in VIth year, in most cases.
The Connection Between Organizational Structure and Identity and the Conflict Potential of the Organization
Authors: Rusu Raluca
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this paper is to identify some coordinates necessary to evaluate and control the dynamics of conflict potential of organizations. In order to examine the conflictual potential of organizations, we started from Glasl’s (1999) idea according to which, in this approach, attention must be focused mainly on the state and functionality of three main subsystems: the spiritual-cultural subsystem; the social-political subsystem and the instrumental-technical subsystem of the organizations. As a result, the possible vulnerabilities of the organizational system must be looked for, in two major directions. On the one hand, on aspects related to the soft part of the organization, more precisely the organizational identity, and on the other hand, on aspects related to the hard part of the organization, determined by the organizational structure. This paper is not about discovering the sources and factors that determine conflicts in organizations, but about drawing attention to the fact that the organization itself, through the values promoted and the way of organization, can be a source of conflict.
The Motor Capacity - The Basic Pillar of the Training, Consolidation and Perfection of Combat Skills
Authors: Stănciulescu Robert
Published: July 2024

The contribution of the motor capacity to the formation of skills specific to carrying out the combat actions that characterize the modern warfare is immense because it brings together all the motor acts performed to maintain relations with the natural or social environment, including those done through the performance of skills specific to certain activities with a military-applicative nature. The acquisition of the knowledge specific to the development of basic motor qualities as well as the consolidation and improvement of basic and utilitarian-applicative motor skills that represent the purposes of physical activity is achieved through intense activity. They are processes that also require a certain set of intellectual activities which involve effort to understand and perform specific activities. Therefore, motor learning capacity also involves the engagement in activity of important body processes such as: affectivity, memory, imagination, thinking or will.

Published: July 2024

Managing casualties in chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) incidents poses distinct challenges. These events have a disproportionate impact on both emergency personnel and infrastructure. While encounters with CBRN incidents are rare, it’s essential to plan and train comprehensively, employing a universal approach to all potential hazards. Effectively managing CBRN incidents necessitates prompt identification of the agent involved, demanding specialized knowledge among responders. Understanding factors such as toxicity, latency, and persistency is critical in handling chemical incidents for appropriate casualty prioritization and intervention. Distinguishing between live biological agents and toxins is crucial in managing biological threats. The characteristics of live agents, including virulence, pathogenicity, infectivity, transmissibility and lethality, vary and require tailored management. Similarly, radiological and nuclear hazards, which may result in irradiation, contamination, or trauma, demand a structured approach to response efforts during major incidents. All healthcare professionals involved in such incidents must grasp the principles of CBRN incident management to mount a proficient reaction.

The study focuses on three Python libraries: TextBlob, VADER, and Flair, evaluating their accuracy on a public dataset of Twitter posts. Additionally, custom neural network architectures are developed to optimize sentiment classification. Results indicate that while rule-based libraries offer simplicity, deep learning-based libraries show promise for higher accuracy. The customized LSTM models, particularly LSTM2 with architectural adjustments and regularization techniques, demonstrate improved performance over baseline models with classification accuracy as high as 76.3%.
The Impact of Microplastics and Nanoplastics on Human Digestive, Respiratory and Cardiovascular Systems
Authors: Stoian Adrian Ioan
Published: July 2024

The proliferation of plastic production in recent years has precipitated a global surge in environmental pollution, with microplastics and nanoplastics (M-NPLs) emerging as omnipresent contaminants across ecosystems. Despite growing awareness of plastic pollution, the systematic toxicity and effects of M-NPLs on human health are often neglected. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the formation, routes of exposure, and potential health impacts of M-NPLs on the human digestive, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems. Mechanisms of M-NPL formation, including mechanical breakdown, chemical degradation, and biological degradation, are examined, alongside the primary routes of human exposure through ingestion, inhalation, and dermal contact. The potential effects of M-NPLs exposure include disruption to intestinal homeostasis, inflammatory responses in the respiratory systems and cardiovascular complications. The findings emphasize the importance of conducting comprehensive investigations to fully grasp the enduring impacts of MNPLs on human health and the environment, addressing this significant challenge to environmental and public health.
Enhanced Spectrum Monitoring Capabilities Based on Software-Defined Radio Systems: Validation of a Real Time Frequency Hopping Signal Detection
Authors: Șorecău Mirela , Șorecău Emil , Cîrstea Rareș , Bechet Paul
Published: July 2024

This paper presents the development and validation of a frequency and channel detection application within GNU Radio, with a particular focus on improving the accuracy of Software Defined Radio (SDR) systems in monitoring frequency hopping signals. To test the application, a series of experimental scenarios were implemented using equipment such as a signal generator, a USRP N310 SDR platform, and a VHF wideband antenna. The scenarios included initial laboratory tests involving the generation of frequency hopping continuous wave signals in the 70-91 MHz range, followed by the generation of a 3G cellular standards-specific channel with sweep in the 70-90 MHz range, and a real frequency hopping test using military radio stations. The latter test was performed in the 75-85 MHz range using predefined frequencies (with 2 MHz steps between them) and different hopping rates (100 hops/s, 300 hops/s, 1000 hops/s). The goal of the in-situ tests was to evaluate the detection capabilities under different conditions. The results showed a 100% success rate in identifying and recording hopping frequencies. The results of this study confirm the reliability and effectiveness of the developed GNU Radio application and demonstrate the potential of the system itself for advanced telecommunications and spectrum management tasks in both the commercial and defense sectors.

Published: July 2024

Submandibula abscess is a mixture of pus that collects in one area in a network, namely the submandibula area caused by bacterial infection, parasites, or other foreign bodies. The cause of submandibula infection generally originates from the mandibular first and second molar teeth from the spread of infection from the sublingual and submental spaces. Symptoms of a submandibula abscess are characterized by pain and swelling of the cheeks to the inner neck where infection occurs. Infection that occurs in the submandibula space originates from infection of the floor of the mouth, teeth, pharynx, and submandibula lymph nodes. A 49-year-old female patient came to the Sultan Fatah Hospital in Demak with clinical symptoms leading to a submandibula abscess, where there were complaints of swelling on the left cheek up to the neck, the remaining root teeth were often sore and loose, and shortness of breath. Radiological examination performed on the patient showed the impression of a left submandibula abscess. Laboratory tests obtained positive HbsAg indicating that the patient is infected with Hepatitis B. Hepatitis B is a disease that can worsen the condition of the immune system. Proper infection control and sterilization protocols must be followed to reduce the risk of infection.

It is difficult to predict with certainty how the outlook for strategic procurement will be in the next decade, but the current trends of Generative AI have already had a significant impact. This study aims to analyse the recent research focused on Generative AI strategic procurement and global supply chains with structured pros and cons of the way they could impact the strategies. For this purpose, a literature review based on 19 research articles and studies was performed to identify the areas of strategic procurement where the Generative AI could effectively perform specific tasks and to formulate shared perspectives for greater impacts. As with any new technology, the use of Generative AI is not without effort and setbacks. There are several outstanding topics, and it is important to consider the highlights and the lowlights when integrating Generative AI into strategic procurement processes. Based on this analysis, the following areas of the strategic procurement activities, with most of the value added by the implementation of the new AI technologies, were identified, in this priority order: 1. Ethical considerations, 2. Market intelligence, 3. Risk management, 4. Supplier management, 5. Contract management. The results of this research may be of interest to category procurement professionals. Further research is needed to investigate cost-effective methods for further development of the Generative AI digital transformation.
