Authors: SHAHZAD Qamar , UMAIR Muhammad , WAQAR Saad
Published: September 2022

In recent years, significant advancements in developing large-scale 3D printers and construction materials have been made to meet industrial-scale 3D printing construction demand. Constructing the buildings and structural components using 3D concrete printing is significant. The main benefits of additive manufacturing (AM) are freedom of design, construction waste reduction, mass customization, and the ability to manufacture complex structures. The major issues include optimizing the printing material with suitable properties for 3D concrete printing. However, this technology for green building construction seems to improve conventional methods by reducing human resource requirements, high investment costs, and formworks. The research community's interest in 3D printing for architecture and construction has grown significantly over the last few years. As a result, there is a need to combine existing and ongoing research in this area to understand better current problems and their potential solutions based on future research work. This paper reviews the latest trend of research and state-of-the-art technologies in 3D printing in building and construction by analyzing the publications from 2002 to 2022. Based on the above-mentioned analysis of publications, printing methods, concrete printing systems, and the influence of constituent materials and chemical admixtures on concrete material properties are briefly discussed. The challenges and recommendations of 3DCP, including reinforcement, development of new materials, multi-nozzle combinations, life cycle assessment of 3DCP, and development of hybrid systems, are then examined. This paper concluded with a discussion of the limitations of existing systems and potential future initiatives to enhance their capability and print quality.

Authors: Karim Rabiul , Islam A.K.M. Shawkatul
Published: September 2022

The blue economy improves livelihoods through sustainable use of marine resources and technological inputs, thereby promoting economic growth. Coastal and marine resources of economic importance are the main components of Bangladesh’s blue economy. These resources are divided into biological resources, nonbiological resources, renewable resources, and commercial and trade resources. The extreme events of climate change include warming trends, cyclones, sea level rise, drought, erosion, tides, salt water intrusion, floods, changes in rainfall trends, and ocean acidification. These extreme events will cause coral hiccups, species migration, loss of biodiversity, changes in species lifestyles, changes in the marine food chain, and ultimately affect the national economy. Therefore, establishing the adaptability of marine ecosystems to climate change is the primary requirement for maximizing benefits from the ocean. This background document provides a strategic framework for the implementation of the climate-resilient blue economy in Bangladesh. The framework is divided into four steps (i.e. problem identification, attention to areas that are important for climate change adaptation to the development of the blue economy, and activities to achieve goals and goal realization). Special attention needs to be paid to energy efficiency, marine and coastal biodiversity, ecosystem-based adaptation, building environmental resilience in coastal areas, restoring ecosystems, building economic resilience, and formulating development policies to adapt to the blue economy of climate change. Mangrove planting, oyster reef construction, mussel beds, sea-grass beds, marsh beds and coral reef protection, the use of renewable energy, special interventions in fisheries and island development, crop insurance, floating agriculture and salt tolerance, ecotourism development, marine protection Zones and declarations, ecologically critical areas, marine spatial planning, policy formulation, institutional integration, and continuous monitoring of the ocean are some examples of possible interventions needed for the development of a climate-resilient blue economy in Bangladesh.

Authors: Ohnishi Kazuhiro
Published: September 2022

This paper uses a mixed Bertrand duopoly model comprising a public firm and a private firm, and investigates the role that production subsidies play in the mixed duopoly model regarding privatization and efficiency. The paper considers substitutive, independent and complementary goods, and examines the following three games: (i) the public firm and the private firm simultaneously and independently set their own prices, (ii) the public firm acts as a Stackelberg leader, and (iii) both firms act simultaneously and independently as profit-maximizers. The paper solves the three games and demonstrates that under the optimal subsidy of each of substitutive, independent and complementary goods, both firms’ profits, prices, outputs and economic welfare are respectively identical regardless of the nature of the competition.

Environmental pollution is a severe concern for the world . Chemical and physical approaches to pollution mitigation are insufficient so bioremediation has been used which is one among the most secure, cleanest, the most cost-effective, and the least harmful to the environment technologies that is made through the use of a variety of biological agents including microorganisms and\or plants (i.e. phytoremediation) to degrade, remove, stabilize and reduce different pollutants resulted from various industrial and anthropogenic activities due to a lack of knowledge about the manufacture, use and disposal of hazardous substances since they are extremely harmful and have a negative influence on human. To control increasing pollution it's necessary to keep looking for new biological forms because bioremediation is still considered an emerging technology . This review's objective is to provide a complete overview of the numerous types of bioremediation agents available, the different bioremediation techniques for example Bioaugmentation, Bioventing, Biosparging, Biocomposting, Biopiles and Bioreactors were applied in different part of the world to reduce the toxicity of toxic substance, advantage and disadvantage of bioremediation techniques as well as restrictions in treating contaminants in the natural environment.
IMMUNOLOGICAL RESPONSE TO SARS-COV 2 AND IMMUNOPATHOLOGY OF COVID-19 INFECTION
Authors: ABDULRAHMAN Ghada Younis , MOHAMMED Ghaith Rabie
Published: September 2022

SARS-CoV-2 is a new beta coronavirus, similar to SARS-CoV-1, that emerged at the end of 2019 in the Hubei province of China. It is responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. The ability to gain quick control of the pandemic has been hampered by a lack of detailed knowledge about SARS-CoV-2-host interactions, mainly in relation to viral biology and host immune response. The rapid clinical course seen in COVID-19 indicates that infection control in asymptomatic patients or patients with mild disease is probably due to the innate immune response, as, considering that SARS -CoV-2 is new to humans, an effective adaptive response would not be expected to occur until approximately 2---3 weeks after contact with the virus. Antiviral innate immunity has humoral components (complement and coagulation -fibrinolysis systems, soluble proteins that recognize glycans on cell surface, interferons, chemokines, and naturally occurring antibodies) and cellular components (natural killer cells and other innate lymphocytes). Failure of this system would pave the way for uncontrolled viral replication in the airways and the mounting of an adaptive immune response, potentially amplified by an inflammatory cascade. Severe COVID-19 appears to be due not only to viral infection but also to a dysregulated immune and inflammatory response. In this paper, the authors review the most recent publications on the immunobiology of SARS-CoV-2, virus interactions with target cells, and host immune responses, and highlight possible associations between deficient innate and acquired immune responses and disease progression and mortality. Immunotherapeutic strategies targeting both the virus and dysfunctional immune responses are also addressed.

Over many years, in order to provide powerful techniques for protecting digital copyrights, digital watermarking techniques have been developed. This research focuses on proposing an efficient blind hybrid digital image watermarking technique based on the transformation of Daubechies wavelet (DW) and Block Bitmap modification (BBM). DW represents an effective multi-determination frequency domain for including the watermarks. The BBM is used to afford an enhanced capability of embedding and minimize distortion. Two layers of security have been added to the proposed technique for protecting digital images from theft by using the logistic chaotic mapping to select the position of the blocks for the embedding process and Lorenz chaotic mapping for scrambling the watermark image. In the experiments, high values of peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index (SSIM) are obtained, and all the obtained results illustrate that the presented technique is highly imperceptible, secure, and robust.

A study on the relationship between language and thought based on Sapir-Whorf hypothesis
Authors: Dong Jianmei
Published: September 2022

Since ancient times, the problem of language and thinking is puzzled those major scholars in philosophy, psychology and linguistics. Although this is a historic and complex problem, the author has discussed and made a further thinking on the relationship between language and thought under the enlightenment of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. As the Bible says, "all things work together." To avoid some deficiencies of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, such as the fuzzy definition of thinking and studying language and thought only from the language perspective, the author explores the relationship between language and thought from a whole perspective. Through analyzing some terms and make a further classification of different thoughts, it is apparent to see that, to some extent, language have nothing to do with thought, and that both the language and thought have more or less influences in several aspects to each other. And then after the discussion on the relationship between language and thought, it is concluded the following three kinds of relationship which are: firstly, the language determines or influences thought; secondly, thought determines or influences thought; thirdly, the extension of thinking goes beyond the boundary of language. In this paper, the author summarizes those three relationships between language and thought, and it is hoped to be helpful to relevant researches in the future.

Background: The aims of this study are to 1) determine the scope of musculoskeletal (MSK)-related clinical research in Sweden; 2) collate the amount of first-tier funding received; 3) discuss strategies and infrastructure supporting future MSK clinical trials in Sweden.

Methods: A systematic scoping review protocol was applied in PubMed, Scopus, and SweCRIS databases. The articles were examined, and data were extracted in multiple stages by three blinded authors.

Results: The search strategy resulted in 3,025 publications from 479 Swedish-affiliated authors. Primary health care was the basis for 14% of the publications, 84% from secondary health care, and 2% from occupational health care with a similar proportional distribution of first-tier research grant financing. Approximately one in six publications were randomized controlled trials (RCTs), while the majority were of observational cohort design. The majority of publications in primary and occupational health care were related to pain disorders (51 and 67%, respectively), especially diagnosis, prognosis, and healthcare organizational-related interventions (34%) and rehabilitation (15%) with similar proportional distribution of first-tier research grant financing. In secondary health care, rheumatic inflammatory disorder-related publications were most prevalent (30%), most frequently concerning diagnosis, prognosis, and healthcare organizational-related interventions (20%), attracting approximately half of all first-tier funding. Publications related to degenerative joint disorders (25%), fractures (16%), and joint, tendon, and muscle injuries (13%) frequently concerned surgical and other orthopedic-related interventions (16, 6, and 8%, respectively). Pain disorder-related publications (10%) as well as bone health and osteoporosis-related publications (4%) most frequently concerned diagnosis, prognosis, and healthcare organizational-related interventions (5 and 3%, respectively).

Conclusions: Swedish-affiliated MSK disorder research 2010–2020 was predominantly observational cohort rather than RCT based. There was skewed first-tier funding allocation considering prevalence/incidence and burden of disease. Use of infrastructure supporting register-based RCTs, placebo-controlled RCTs, and hybrid effectiveness-implementation studies on prevention and clinical intervention is important strategies for the future in all healthcare sectors.
Los arreglos familiares y la transmisión de la propiedad en los procesos hereditarios en el agro pampeano argentino
Authors: Neiman Melina , Bober Gabriel
Published: September 2022

Los productores agropecuarios de la región pampeana desarrollan su actividad en el contexto de un modelo productivo cada vez menos demandante de mano de obra familiar. Asimismo, se registra cierta “modernización” de las relaciones intrafamiliares vinculada con la adopción de hábitos más característicos de una “clase media urbana” como, por ejemplo, la alta valoración del acceso de los/as hijos/as a los estudios universitarios. Estos cambios productivos y familiares tienen sus efectos sobre la forma en que se plantean y constituyen los arreglos hereditarios. Este artículo muestra las transformaciones que se han venido produciendo en estos procesos de sucesión a raíz de las tensiones que introduce, por un lado, el modelo productivo de venta de commodities que llevó a una extraordinaria valorización del precio de la tierra y, por el otro, los cambios en las relaciones entre géneros y generaciones que condujeron a que los/as hijos/as que migran se sientan más legitimados para reclamar su participación en la herencia de la propiedad.
