IDENTIFICATION OF INDUSTRIAL TECHNOGENIC RISKS AT MINING ENTERPRISES
Authors:   Institute of Mining of the Ural Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, ALENICHEV V.M.
Published: January 2024

The risk of subsurface use is caused by negative manifestations of subsurface use due to infrastructural, natural, geological, technological, economic, financial and other factors. The probabilistic-statistical method of risk research in addition to the usual, classical methods of exact sciences allows deeper and more objective identification of the possibility of the emergence of technogenic risks. One of the ways to identify the risk of negative phenomena in subsurface use is the use of methods of probability theory and random statistical geodata. For a probabilistic assessment of the design parameters and indicators of technogenic formations, it is not necessary to know the distribution laws of individual random variables taken into account in the calculation model (multifactor function). It is enough to use only numerical characteristics of random variables: average values and first moments.

Published: January 2024

Improving bituminous material using recycling waste (Crumb rubber) as modifier was emphasized in this paper. Crumb rubber (CR) waste was added by volume to the bitumen in 0, 5, and 7 %. The volumetric  properties tests  were conducted using the Marshall Test (ASTM D1559), others includes  Characterization of Binder  and Aggregate materials in HMA, (FTIR Analysis), Fundamental mechanical properties tests, also Rheological properties according with ASTM D7369-11, Dynamic Modulus Test, according with AASHTO R83-17, Rutting Test according with AASHTO T324-04, Fatigue Cracking Evaluation according with AASHTO TP124 and Flexural Beam Fatigue Beam Test according with AASHTO T 321-07. The result indicates that crumb rubber is very suitable as a modifier, with bitumen of 60/70 PEN grade. From the results, at the designed production temperature 135oC for unmodified 60/70 Bitumen, the modified admixed samples (0% and 5% CR) at the same binder content show a high void percentage for mixes (5% CR). This is an indication that the modified asphalt mixtures exhibited volumetric properties with higher voids and lower density due to change in viscosity caused by modification and requires compaction at higher temperature to be at par with regular unmodified bitumen grade. However, the air voids of mixtures fall within the specification range of 3% to 5%, and as such acceptable for use as a modifier in 60/70 PEN grade bitumen.

Published: January 2024

The inadequacy of buses for the public transportation system in the Federal Capital City (FCC) of Abuja has resulted to the dominant use of private automobiles, which has created a lot of problems, such as, long waiting times, lateness to work, kidnapping and loss of man-hours. The effort of Government in providing high capacity public buses through Abuja Urban Mass Transit Company (AUMTCO), has not been satisfactory. Therefore, in this study, an evaluation of the existing bus route networks and the availability of public transport bus services in the FCC, including an assessment of the factors that determine the present choice of travel mode in the City is presented. The methodology adopted  includes: manual traffic volume count, measurement of traffic data and scope of the current bus route network using GPSmap76Cx (GARMIN) receiver, and questionnaire administration. The results show that public bus is 0.12% of vehicular traffic volume in the metropolitan city, while private car  has 86.81%, which carries significant consequences that impact different facets of its citizens' lives. The existing  bus routes network does not cover Wuse II and Maitama districts. Mode choice influences by social demographic characteristics, such as; occupation, marital status, time spent going to work,  bus inconvenience, time to leave home for work, and decision to patronize public mode if available are among the trip factors assessed. The mean peak travel speed on the bus routes  ranges from 15km/hr to 23 km/hr, while average time spent from house to and at bus stop are 10 minutes and 20 minutes respectively for public bus.  The results suggest that the existing bus route networks should be optimized  to cover all the districts of the Federal Capital City  for effective  accessibility and services to commuters. This  will improve the security indices of commuters in the Federal capital city.

Published: January 2024

Prediction of pavement response based on the elasticity theory and multi-load response determined by superimposition of the tire stresses is at the heart of the mechanistic-empirical design procedure. The main focus was that the response of the pavement was modelled in such a way that tensile and compressive strains were predicted based on axle load spectra analysis for an elastic multi-layered system that was subjected to axle load spectra using a layered elastic analysis software program, KENLAYER (in conjunction with the input software LAYERINP and graphic software LGRAPH), which is part of the computer package called KENPAVE. To summarize the tensile and compressive strains results obtained for a Single Axle with Single Tire (SAST) from this study, the critical axle load magnitude for 100 kN is 226x10-6mm/mm and 237.70x10-6mm/mm respectively. For a Single Axle with Dual Tires (SADT), the critical axle load magnitude of 140kN is 243.00x10-6mm/mm and 244.00x10-6mm/mm respectively. For Tandem Axles with Dual Tires (TADT), the critical axle load magnitude of 240kN is 231.00x10-6mm/mm and 231.00x10-6mm/mm respectively.  For Tridem Axle with Dual Tires (TRDT), the critical axle load magnitude of 360kN is 226.60x10-6mm/mm and 229.70x10-6mm/mm respectively. The influence of axle load range is more pronounced for TADT, followed by TRDT. On the other hand, the smallest one is SADT, and SAST is closest to TRDT.

Published: January 2024

The use of passwords or passphrases is essential for every internet user. However, users often face a dilemma between choosing simple passwords that are easy to crack and complex passwords that are difficult to remember, leading to frequent and cumbersome password recovery processes. This paper focuses on addressing this issue by developing a multifactor, unique password-generating system using SHA-256. The system incorporates factors such as a Unique Identifier, a biometric key value, and an Android mobile phone with a Biometric scanner. To accomplish this, an algorithm is devised using JavaScript that concatenates and generates a hash value by applying the SHA-256 algorithm to the Unique Identifier and Biometric Key values. The software implementation is achieved using the JavaScript programming language, with support from predefined plugins. Once the application is created, passwords can be generated by inputting a user's fingerprint ID and an Identifier (e.g., “Facebook.com”), resulting in the generation of a 32-character unique password. This process can be applied to any identifier and can reproduce the same password when the same factors are supplied. The experimentation results demonstrate that the system is capable of generating unique passwords for different platforms and can reproduce the same password for each platform if needed. While the focus of this paper is on the development of a system for Android mobile phone operating systems, It is suggested that its functionality be expanded by developing a browser extension and versions for other operating systems to improve its usability and accessibility across multiple platforms.

Published: January 2024

This study detailed how direct acid leaching can be used to extract high grade chromite from low grade chromite ore for utilization in the steel industry. The suggested method, which makes use of nitric acid, avoids using traditional pyrometallurgical processes because they use a lot of energy. The leaching procedure is adjusted in accordance with the circumstances that will maximize chromium recovery. In this context, the independent variables are the nitric acid concentration (0.5–4 M), temperature (28–80°C), liquid to solid ratio (L/S) (3–10 mL g–1), and leaching period (10–120 min). The three parameters that affect the leaching process most effectively are, in order, acid concentrations, temperature, and particle sizes. By doing this, 86.7% of the chromite in the lean chromite ore was recovered. Shirking core model examination of the kinetics of leaching reveals that internal diffusion reaction controls the rate of leaching, and the apparent activation energy calculated is 24.8 kJ.mol-1. This approach is successful and relatively inexpensive for chromite beneficiation. The gap is thus filled by the use of all-known inefficient acid dissolution procedures, which are less expensive and could serve as an alternate way of chromite beneficiation for use in iron and steel.

Published: January 2024

The work is on comparative studies of starches from Breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) and corn (Zea mays). The starches produced from both were separately subjected to proximate, functional, pasting properties and organoleptic analysis. The result of pasting analysis revealed that when the starches were heated in an aqueous environment both undergo changes known as gelatinization and pasting. Both samples may be appropriate for products with high gel strength and elasticity requirements. The result of functional properties revealed that there was no significant difference in the parameters analyzed. Therefore, breadfruit starch compared favourably well with corn starch and thus can be used in so many areas where corn starch are acceptable.

Published: January 2024

Ogi, a cereal fermented paste was produced from maize fortified with mango mesocarp.   This would definitely result in increased protein intake for consumers since most of the grain protein would still be present in the ogi (except for what is leached during steeping and in the wash water). However, there was decrease in fat and protein content of the blends as the substitution increases. The slight variation in carbohydrate content may be due to alterations in other components (protein, fat, ash, fibre and moisture).  The study also recorded reduction in viscosity as the mango mesocarp flour increased. The decrease in viscosity may be ascribed to the reduction of fermented maize flour which consequently reduced the starch content of the blends. The lower viscosity observed in the flour indicated that it could be used as a weaning food. Also the hygroscopicity of the flour increased with mango mesocarp flour inclusion. This may be ascribed to the presence of more hydrophilic carbohydrate from reducing sugars in the mango mesocarp flour. Βeta-carotene increased with increase in mango mesocarp inclusion. Sensory evaluation of the samples was carried out using semi-trained panel consisting of ogi-pap consumers who are familiar with with ogi-pap quality. The control (Sample A) was rated low; in all; the attributes increased significantly (P≤ 0.05) as the percentage of mango mesocarp flour increased. The blends with higher percentages of mango mesocarp flour were most preferred. This implies that incorporation of mango mesocarp flour could improve the sensory attributes of fermented maize flour. The preference for the taste and flavour of the blends increased significantly (P≤ 0.05) with increase in percentage of mango mesocarp flavor. The increase in preference may be attributed to the sugar and flavor components of mango fruits respectively.

Heterogeneous Ensemble Feature Selection and Multilevel Ensemble Approach to Machine Learning Phishing Attack Detection
Authors: Olukoya Dele , Ogunleye Gabriel
Published: January 2024

Over the decade, technology has presented human facets with easiest means of accomplishing complex tasks seamlessly, especially in the area of communication. Malicious and vicious links are consciously doctored to resemble the original and sent through emails to millions of users at once at a lower price. Since the emergence of phishing and its cohorts, every solution and means to mitigate the attacks has proven unsuccessful due to the dynamic nature of the attacks. Meanwhile, machine learning (ML) is adopted as the right antidote to phishing detection, with its performance based on diverse steps, especially feature selection. Most studies in the problem domain concentrate more on model optimization than sourcing for a reliable feature selection system and fail to integrate a reliable feature selection along with the classification model. The systems are fed with low-quality data that hampers the performance of such models. The authors noticed the contribution of feature selection to the performance of machine learning models and developed a novel Heterogeneous Ensemble Feature Selection (HEFS) framework for multilevel ensemble machine learning-based phishing detection. In HEFS, three filter-based statistical techniques were exploited to produce a primary subset of phishing features, and the variable selected by each of the techniques was automatically aggregated to produce the baseline features. The selection of the techniques is to overcome each limitation since their ranking principles are different. The experiment revealed that the multilevel ensemble (stacked) on the baseline features outperformed others with an accuracy of 98.8%., including multilevel model on each filter-based method.

Published: January 2024

The study investigated solar power utilization amongst rural households in Ikole Local Government Area, Ekiti State. Specifically, it examined the level of awareness; evaluated perception towards solar power, and identified the constraints to solar power utilization using a two-stage sampling procedure.  The first stage involved a random selection of six rural communities from the LGA while the second stage involved a random selection of twenty rural household heads from the rural communities making one hundred and twenty respondents. Awareness of usage of solar power to charge phones (90.8 %) and for household for lightening (90 %) ranked 1st and 2nd while the utilization of solar power for charging of phones (mean = 4.81), lightening of the house (mean = 4.58), lightening of the shop/office facilities (mean = 3.91), ranked 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively. The respondents had a positive and favorable perception towards solar power utilization in terms of its reliability (x = 4.76), saving fuel costs (x = 4.76) and no payment of electricity bills (x=4.72) among others. ‘Requires sunny weather to work best’ (mean= 4.70) and ‘It is not reliable in raining season’ (mean = 4.29) were the strongest constraints to its utilization. A significant relationship existed between perception towards solar power and utilization of the same at p ≤ 0.05. Solar power is moderately utilized among rural dwellers to enhance their livelihood. It is recommended that Government, NGOs, and other stakeholders should provide solar powered lightening infrastructures for public utility and also subsidy and instalment   payments for rural dwellers to enhance affordability.

Published: January 2024

The Republic of Serbia's positive criminal procedural law foresees three types of agreements that can be concluded between the public prosecutor and the defendant: an agreement on the recognition of a criminal offense, an agreement on the testimony of the accused, and an agreement on the testimony of a convicted person. The "agreement on costs of criminal proceedings" is an obligatory component of those agreements, with the exception of the agreement on the testimony of the convicted. In the paper, the author pointed out certain legislative omissions, namely the necessity for clarification and more sufficient legislative and technical formulation of the corresponding Criminal Procedure Code sections. In this regard, the focus is on the injured party's right to file an appeal against the judgment that accepted the plea agreement concluded between the public prosecutor and the defendant, with an emphasis on the right to challenge this judgment in the section where the costs of the criminal proceedings were decided. Furthermore, a specific section of the paper is devoted to the subject of relieving the defendant from the obligation to pay the costs of criminal proceedings, as one of the possibilities when concluding an agreement on the costs of criminal proceedings. The findings of the research indicate that the Serbian legislator could or had to process the observed issues in a more appropriate way and suggestions were given in the final part of the paper, the implementation of which would raise the existing solutions to a qualitatively higher level. In this regard, suggestions were made in the last section of the paper, the implementation of which would elevate the existing solutions to a higher qualitative level.

The trial was conducted with 40 students, and the implementation using the RBL-STEM materials was found to be practical with a practical criterion of 98.75% and effective with an effectiveness criterion of 94%. In addition, the students were highly engaged and responded very positively to the learning experience. Pretest and posttest analysis showed an increase in students’ information literacy in solving the rainbow antimagic coloring problem. The study also identified three levels of information literacy skills: high, medium, and low. Statistical analysis, phase portrait, NVivo, and word cloud confirmed the research findings and showed an increase in students’ information literacy skills. Thus, RBL-STEM has the potential to improve students’ information literacy in real-world contexts, such as the application of ETLE using graph neural network techniques.

Investigating Parents' Satisfaction with Campus Architecture Planning Using the DQI and Kano Two-Dimensional Quality Model: A Case Study of an Elementary School in Northern Taiwan
Authors: Yao Ho-Mei , Hsiao Yi-Long
Published: January 2024

Abstract

The current design of campus buildings often lacks a thorough exploration of user needs. This study addresses this gap by developing a questionnaire based on the three design dimensions of the Design Quality Indicator (DQI) to assess design quality. Data collected through this questionnaire, along with the application of the Kano two-dimensional quality model (Kano Model) and Customer Satisfaction Coefficient (CSC), are utilized to identify the quality attributes of school buildings from the perspective of users. The study aims to locate the quadrant representing the overall user "satisfaction" and identify satisfactory elements. These findings can serve as essential references for future school construction designs.
The sample for this study is derived from a Type A school in the northern region, with parent feedback obtained through a questionnaire survey. The research results indicate that, through the methodology constructed in this study and the proposed planning and design strategies, items meeting parental expectations and satisfaction can be inferred, contributing to the creation of a satisfactory campus architectural form. It is recommended for future research to expand the sample size to obtain a more comprehensive understanding for the planning and design of campus buildings.

استراتيجيات المبتعثين السعوديين في التعامل مع الثنائية اللغوية لأبنائهم
Authors: الدوسري د. عادل
Published: January 2024

يستكشف هذا البحث استراتيجيات المبتعثين السعوديين في التعامل مع الثنائية اللغوية لأبنائهم خلال مرحلة الابتعاث وبعدها. تركز الدراسة على ثلاثة محاور رئيسية: التخطيط المسبق للتعامل مع الثنائية اللغوية، استراتيجيات التعامل مع هذه الثنائية خلال فترة الابتعاث، وأخيرًا أثر هذه الاستراتيجيات بعد العودة إلى الوطن.
توصل البحث إلى أن المبتعثين يولون اهتمامًا كبيرًا لتعليم أبنائهم اللغة العربية كجزء من هويتهم الثقافية، مع حرصهم على إتقان أبنائهم اللغة الثانية. تنوعت الاستراتيجيات المتبعة، من التحفيز على استخدام العربية في المنزل إلى الانخراط في برامج تعليمية لتعزيز اللغتين، وكذلك المشاركة في الأنشطة الثقافية والاجتماعية التي تعزز اللغتين. وجد البحث أن التحديات والفرص المتعلقة بالثنائية اللغوية تسهم في تطور الأبناء من النواحي التعليمية والثقافية. كما تبرز الدراسة أهمية الابتعاث كتجربة تعليمية وثقافية تساهم في تكوين شخصية الأبناء وقدرتهم على التكيف والتواصل في بيئات متعددة اللغات.
يخلص البحث إلى أن الاستراتيجيات التي يتبناها المبتعثون تجاه الثنائية اللغوية تعد عنصرًا محوريًا في تعزيز الهوية الثقافية واللغوية لأبنائهم، وكشفت الدراسة عن أهمية هذه الاستراتيجيات في الحفاظ على الهوية اللغوية والثقافية للأبناء، وناقشت كيفية تأثيرها على تكيفهم وتواصلهم وتعليمهم بعد انتهاء فترة الابتعاث.
الكلمات المفتاحية: الثنائية اللغوية، المبتعثون، التخطيط اللغوي.
This research explores the strategies of Saudi scholarship students in dealing with their children's bilingualism during and after their scholarship period. The study focuses on three main axes: pre-planning for bilingualism, strategies for dealing with bilingualism during the scholarship period, and finally, the impact of these strategies after returning to the homeland.
The research found that scholarship students pay significant attention to teaching their children Arabic as part of their cultural identity, while ensuring their children's proficiency in a second language. The strategies varied, from encouraging the use of Arabic at home to engaging in educational programs to enhance both languages, as well as participating in cultural and social activities that enhance bilingualism. The study found that the challenges and opportunities associated with bilingualism contribute to the educational and cultural development of the children. The study also highlights the importance of scholarships as an educational and cultural experience that contributes to shaping the personality of the children and their ability to adapt and communicate in multilingual environments.
The research concludes that the strategies adopted by scholarship students towards bilingualism are a pivotal element in enhancing the cultural and linguistic identity of their children. The study reveals the importance of these strategies in maintaining the linguistic and cultural identity of the children, discussing how they affect their adaptation, communication, and education after the scholarship period.
