The entire world has witnessed the spread of COVID-19, starting from the end of the year 2019 in Wuhan, China, and is still affecting the population until now, the year 2022, although the infection is currently under control. In the beginning, it was identified as an epidemic but later was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) in Mac 2020 as a pandemic. As a result, any information related to this disease is widely disseminated as health protection and procedure. Thus, acquiring of the knowledge of COVID-19 jargon is necessary to ensure mutual understanding. Failure to provide an adequate meaning will lead to misunderstanding regarding the implementation of health procedures in the language community. Therefore, this current paper carries out the study to identify technical terms related to COVID-19 in speeches of the General Director of WHO and explore the method applied in translating those terms from English into Arabic. The terms are unfamiliar in the target text, therefore the study explores the approaches used to convey the meaning, besides discovering whether the terms are remained with their features (foreignized) or adapted (domesticated) into Arabic. This is a descriptive study that applies the document analysis approach in collecting and analysing data. Based on the preliminary analysis, several types of technical terms related to COVID-19 are discovered and classified into different categorizations. The study contributes to uncovering the trend of translating COVID-19 terms into Arabic.

Nancy Pelosi amerikai képviselőházi elnök tajvani látogatásáról
Authors: Baranyi Tamás Péter , Eszterhai Viktor
Published: August 2022

Nancy Pelosi amerikai házelnök augusztus eleji, Tajvanra tett látogatása heves reakciót váltott ki a Kínai Népköztársaságban, mert ezzel implicit módon megkérdőjelezte a sanghaji kommünikében rögzített, a kínai amerikai kapcsolatok alapjának számító „egy Kína” elvet. Az amerikai lépést belpolitikai szempontok és stratégiai számítások egyaránt motiválták. Előbbi elsősorban az amerikai félidős választásokra való felkészülés, utóbbi pedig Kína regionális tekintélyének megingatása. Pelosi útja kínai belpolitikai szempontból kedvezőtlenül érintette Hszi Csin-ping kínai elnök pozícióját, mert Kína újjászületését és a külföldi befolyásolási kísérletekkel szemben álló politikájának legitimációját kezdi ki. Pelosi útja amerikai részről taktikai szempontból ugyan sikeres fricska volt, hosszabb távon azonban nem egyértelmű, hogy milyen stratégiai célt szolgált. Az „egy Kína” elv látványos megsértése ugyanis egy sokkal asszertívabb kínai külpolitikát is eredményezhet, ami nem érdeke sem a két nagyhatalomnak, sem a külvilágnak.
Modeling and Structural Analysis of Morphing Wing in UAVs
Authors: Krishna Gunda Shiva
Published: August 2022

Morphing structure enables an aircraft to alter its configuration in maneuver to operate effectively in a given flight reign. A continuous wing is utilized to reduce drag as the wing deformation is approximated more closely. With such wing morphing of skin supported with underlying truss structure, they are able to control the unsteady aerodynamic forces. This project seeks to expand and unravel the capability of an aircraft through the application of a reconfigurable “morphing” wing. In this project, the structural model of the morphing wing consists of primarily wing components designed in solid works. Structural analysis of wing components has been written to minimize wing deformation under aerodynamic load using ANSYS. With fixed geometry, the wing is allowed to analyze Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) in Fluent. Smart materials which carry aerodynamic loads such as shape memory alloys, piezoelectric actuators, and shape memory polymers have been discussed briefly. Along these lines, this paper fills in as an abstract for scientists and designers endeavoring to get to know the current progressions and advancements in morphing wing technology
Classification and Analysis of Weather Images Using Machine Intelligent Based Approach
Authors: Jena Kalyan Kumar , K. Krishna Prasad
Published: August 2022

Purpose: Weather information plays a crucial role in the human society. It helps to lower the weather related losses and enhance the societal benefits such as the protection of life, health, property, etc., It is very much essential for the proper classification of weather images (WIs) into several categories such as dew, fogsmog, frost, glaze, hail, lightning, rain, rainbow, rime, sandstorm, snow, etc. so that appropriate information can be provided to the people as well as organizations for further analysis.
Approach: In this work, a machine intelligent (MI) based approach is proposed for the classification of WIs into the dew, fogsmog, frost, glaze, hail, lightning, rain, rainbow, rime, sandstorm, and snow types. The proposed approach is focused on the stacking (hybridization) of Logistic Regression (LRG), Support Vector Machine (SVMN), Random Forest (RFS) and Neural Network (NNT) methods to carry out such classification. The proposed method is compared with other machine learning (ML) based methods such as LRG, SVMN, RFS, NNT, Decision Tree (DTR), AdaBoost (ADB), Naïve Bayes (NBY), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNNH) and Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGDC) for performance analysis.
Result: The proposed method and other ML based methods have been implemented using Python based Orange 3.26.0. In this work, 1604 WIs having 149, 141, 146, 150, 144, 146, 142, 147, 149, 147, 143 numbers of dew, fogsmog, frost, glaze, hail, lightning, rain, rainbow, rime, sandstorm, and snow types respectively are taken from the Kaggle source. The performance of all the methods is assessed using the performance parameters such as classification accuracy (CA), F1, Precision (PR) and Recall (RC). From the results, it is found that the proposed method is capable of providing better classification results in terms of CA, F1, PR and RC as compared to other ML based methods such as LRG, SVMN, RFS, NNT, DTR, ADB, NBY, KNNH and SGD.
Originality: In this work, a MI based approach is proposed by focusing on the stacking of LRG, SVMN, RFS and NNT methods to carry out the classification of WIs into several types such as dew, fogsmog, frost, glaze, hail, lightning, rain, rainbow, rime, sandstorm, and snow type. The proposed approach performs better in terms of CA, F1, PR and RC as compared to LRG, SVMN, RFS, NNT, DTR, ADB, NBY, KNNH and SGDC methods.

R-SFCL and RRCOCS-TVC Based Cooperative Control for Enhancing LVRT Capability of DFIG System
Authors: Khan Md Sabbir Haider , Mallik Sanjeev Kumar
Published: August 2022

For the extraction of wind energy through a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), low voltage ride through (LVRT) is an essential technical requirement specified by the transmission system operator (TSO). Under a grid fault condition, DFIG should remain in connection with the grid for a certain minimum period and offer reactive power support as required by the TSO. A cooperative control scheme consisting of hardware solution through a superconducting resistance type fault current limiter (R-SFCL) and software solution constructed on the rotor reference current orientation control strategy (RRCOCS) with transient voltage control (TVC), is proposed in this paper to address the LVRT requirement. In the proposed control strategy, RRCOCS will limit the rotor current directly during a fault condition. The reactive power needs to be generated during fault to maintain grid code which is achieved through TVC. At the same time, improvement of stator terminal voltage, as well as suppression of stator current, is achieved by R-SFCL. The suppression of stator current by R-SFCL is also transformed to the rotor side aiding the rotor current limiting. The proposed cooperative scheme’s performance is simulated and tested on a 9 MW grid-connected DFIG wind system. The results obtained by the proposed strategy are compared with RRCOCS and RRCOCS-TVC.

HIGHLIGHTS

Independent software and hardware LVRT methods fail under severe faults and strict grid codes

Software methods are challenged by current suppression and voltage support limits while the hardware methods involve high costs and undergo high thermal stress

A cooperative LVRT can overcome the challenges and limitations associated with these independently deployed methods. The proposed R-SFCL device, in cooperation with RRCOCS-TVC, successfully meets the grid codes, and the transient behavior of the system's electrical and mechanical variables gets improved

The proposed scheme helps reduce R-SFCL resistance, reduces its thermal stress, brings cost reduction in R-SFCL design, and improves its recovery characteristics. The listed improvement in R-SFCL can prevent the system from overcompensation and the adverse effects of recurring faults

Published: August 2022

Ecosystems representing the Natural Heritage (NH) are considered in this study as an important source of ecosystem goods and services for human well-being. On that spatial base, we conducted an expert-based assessment and mapping of their potential to provide ecosystem services (ES) for recreational purposes in Bulgaria. Twelve experts participated in the expert-based assessment by filling individual matrices for the potential of the NH to provide ES. We analysed the results i.e. individual scores by comparing them, and calculating the minimum, the maximum and the range scores between them. We calculated the mean individual experts’ scores by ecosystem types and subtypes for nine prioritized ecosystem services for recreation – 2 provisioning, 2 regulating and 5 cultural. The results show that individual experts have different perceptions for some ecosystems and their services due to their different scientific expertise. This follows from the quite high ranges i.e., 4 or 5 units between maximum and minimum score per spatial unit. There are: (i) significant variations in scoring of Grasslands, Wetlands, Croplands, Rivers and lakes, and Urban ecosystems; and (ii) considerable similarities about Woodland and forest, Sparsely vegetated lands and Marine ecosystems. To compare the spatial discrepancies between the experts’ scores, we map them individually. A final integrated map represents the potential of the NH in Bulgaria to provide ecosystem services for recreation with an average score above 3.00. The main outcomes of our study are the analyses we made on the individual and the group experts’ scores.

Celebrity Chefs, Food Media and the Politics of Eating
Authors: Hollows Joanne
Published: August 2022

Working across food studies and media studies, Joanne Hollows examines the impact of celebrity chefs on how we think about food and how we cook, shop and eat. Hollows explores how celebrity chefs emerged in both restaurant and media industries, making chefs like Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay into global stars. She also shows how blogs and YouTube enabled the emergence of new types of branded food personalities such as Deliciously Ella and BOSH!

As well as providing a valuable introduction to existing research on celebrity chefs, Hollows uses case studies to analyse how celebrity chefs shape food practices and wider social, political and cultural trends. Hollows explores their impact on ideas about veganism, healthy eating and the Covid-19 pandemic and how their advice is bound up with class, gender and race. She also demonstrates how celebrity chefs such as Jamie Oliver, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Nadiya Hussain and Jack Monroe have become food activists and campaigners who intervene in contemporary debates about the environment, food poverty and nation.
A Philosophy of Fashion Through Film
Authors: Di Summa Laura T.
Published: August 2022

The question of whether movies can deliver philosophical content is a leading topic in the cognitive and analytic debate on film. But instead of turning to the well-trodden terrain of narrative and emotional engagement, this is the first time fashion and costume choices are analyzed to demonstrate how movies can be said to be doing philosophy.

Considering how fashion and costumes can deliver the epistemic content of a film and act as a guidance to the interpretation of the philosophical content of a film, Laura T. Di Summa examines fashion and costume choices in classical and contemporary films. She discusses a number of cinematic examples, and the costumes and fashion elements within them, illustrating the importance of issues such as the performative side of fashion, the alteration between novelty and repetition, the pivotal role of the body, and the relation between fashion, style, and individual as well as collective identity.

Featuring close examinations of 1950s melodramas, Hollywood blockbusters and documentaries such as All That Heaven Allows,Mad Max Fury Road, and McQueen, Di Summa uses an innovative new lens to provide fresh philosophical analysis of films. The result is not only an advancement of our understanding of the aesthetic means through which film can do philosophy, but the first insights into a philosophy of fashion.
Curating Design
Authors: Loveday Donna
Published: August 2022

Illustrated with contemporary case studies, Curating Design provides a history of and introduction to design curatorial practice both within and outside the museum. Donna Loveday begins by tracing the history of the collecting and display of designed objects in museums and exhibitions from the 19th-century ‘cabinet of curiosities’ to the present day design museum. She then explores the changing role of the curator since the 1980s, with curators becoming much more than just ‘keepers’ of a collection, with a remit to create narrative and experiential exhibitions as well as develop the museum’s role as a space of learning for its visitors.

Curating as a practice now describes the production of a number of cultural and creative outputs, ranging from exhibitions to art festivals; shopping environments to health centres; conferences to film programming as well as museums and galleries. Loveday explores how design has come to the fore in curatorial practice, with new design museums opening around the world as well as blockbusting exhibitions of fashion and popular culture. Interviews with leading practitioners from international design and arts museums provide a spotlight on contemporary challenges and best practice in design curatorship.
Everyday Fashion in Found Photographs
Authors: Hodgkins Lisa
Published: August 2022

In the last half of the 19th century, the women of America were beginning to develop their own sense of style. Although influenced by European fashions and the social and economic changes of the time, they made clothing choices based upon their personal aspirations and their practical everyday needs.

Providing an overview of fashion influences for each decade from the 1860s to the end of the century, Everyday Fashion in Found Photographs presents iconic garments, using sources from the period, to provide commentary and detailed description of the styles of the time. Previously unpublished vintage photographs show women across the social spectrum wearing items such as the Garibaldi shirt, the cuirass bodice, the Mother Hubbard, bicycle bloomers, and much more. Names, dates and functions of garments are examined in detail, and ties are established between social and historical contexts and the evolution of clothing styles.

This illustrated book is for readers who want to identify and understand specific clothing items as well as gain insight into the mind-set of fashionable women from Victorian-era America.

Architecture after COVID
Authors: Yaneva Albena
Published: August 2022

In 2020, the COVID pandemic unfolded and transformed the lives of billions across the world. As the invisible killer marched across continents, causing unprecedented disruption worldwide, architects and designers began rethinking how to design cities and adapt their practice so that we might continue to live together in the future.

Architecture after COVID is the first book to explore the pandemic’s transformative impacts upon the architectural profession. It raises new questions about the intertwined natures of architectural production, science, society, and spatial practice – questions which had lain latent in the profession for years, but which the COVID pandemic brought to the fore.

The book explores how the pandemic modified the spatial conventions of everyday life in the city, and looks in detail at how it has transformed building typologies. It also shows how the continuing risk of pandemics leads us to rethink the social dimension of architecture and urban design; and ultimately proposes a radical re-evaluation of the conditions of architectural practice – making a compelling argument about the changing agency of architectural design and the importance of designers in re-ordering the post-pandemic world.

Packed with interviews and case-studies from a wide range of contemporary design practices, Architecture after COVID will inspire debates among architectural practitioners and theorists alike. The broad view of the approach and the depth of the professional issues at stake mean that this book will offer key insights for the discipline long beyond the scope of the COVID pandemic – as it explores the long-lasting bond between city, science and society as the ‘new normal’ begins to emerge.
Utopian Drama
Authors: Adiseshiah Siân

Shortlisted for the TaPRA David Bradby Monograph Prize 2023

As the first full-length study to analyse utopian plays in Western drama from antiquity to the present, Utopian Drama: In Search of a Genre offers an illuminating appraisal of the objectives of utopianism as manifested in drama through the ages, and carefully ascertains the added value that live performance brings to the persuasion of utopian thought. Siân Adiseshiah scrutinises the distinctive intervention of utopian drama through its examination alongside the utopian prose tradition – in this way, the book establishes new ways of approaching utopian aesthetics and new ways of interpreting utopian drama. This book provides fresh understandings of the generic features of utopian plays, identifies the gains of establishing a new genre, and ascertains ways in which this genre functions as political theatre.

Referring to over 40 plays, of which 18 are examined in detail, Utopian Drama traces the emergence of the utopian play in the Western tradition from ancient Greek Comedy to experimental contemporary work. Works discussed in detail include plays by Aristophanes, Margaret Cavendish, George Bernard Shaw, Howard Brenton, Claire MacDonald, Cesi Davidson, and Mojisola Adebayo. As well as offering extended attention to the work of these playwrights, the book reflects on the development of utopian drama through history, notes the persistent features, tropes, and conventions of utopian plays, and considers the implications of their registration for both theatre studies and utopian studies.

Objective: Clinicians and policymakers have been wrestling with the appropriateness and safety of opioid therapy during the opioid crisis. Policy and clinical decisions have often been made without much current data on trends in drug use in patients with pain. Thus, we evaluated definitive urine drug test (UDT) results in patients being treated for pain to see if those taking their prescribed opioids were less likely to be positive for the primary illicit drugs currently driving overdose deaths: cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, and methamphetamine.Design, setting, and patients: A cross-sectional study of UDT results from January 1, 2015 to September 30, 2021, from 600,000 patient specimens submitted for testing by pain management specialists.Interventions: UDT by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry as ordered by the treating clinician.Main outcome measures: Presence of other substances stratified by whether a patient's prescribed opioid was found.Results: The presence of cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, and methamphetamine for the total population was low (<5 percent). Of the 347,092 patients prescribed opioids, 76 percent (n = 264,961) were positive on UDT for their prescribed opioid (“consistent”). Compared to patients without their prescribed opioid present (“inconsistent”), patients consistent with therapy were 54 percent (incidence rate ratio (IRR) 1.54, 95 percent confidence interval (CI) 1.47-1.59) less likely to be positive for cocaine, 47 percent [IRR 1.47, 95 percent CI 1.34-1.57] less likely to be positive for heroin, and 35 percent [IRR 1.35, 95 percent CI 1.24-1.45] less likely to be positive for methamphetamine, p < 0.001. Differences between the groups for fentanyl were not significant.Conclusions: Overall positivity rates for cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, and methamphetamine were low. Patients with prescribed opioid present were less likely to be positive for cocaine, heroin, or methamphetamine. Patterns of substance use within this pain management population should be used to inform ongoing policy decisions.
Reduction in opioid prescribing and administration in hospitalized acute care medical patients

Published: August 2022

The Rocky Mountain Chapter of the Society of Hospital Medicine developed 2020 Opioid Prescribing and Treatment Guidelines for the medical inpatient, including five pathways for treating medical inpatients with pain. en Colorado hospitals participated in a 6-month initiative to implement the prescribing pathways, with an aim of reducing opioid prescribing by 15 percent for five commonly encountered medical conditions. Results showed 9.4 percent decrease in opioid morphine equivalent units, 3.4 percent reduction in opioid administrations, and 5.1 percent increase in alternatives to opioid administrations per patient day. Specialty-specific opioid prescribing guidance can help hospitalists change opioid prescribing behavior and should be considered in other specialties.

The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of maternal glucocorticoids on experimental growth retardedrats and the effect of maternal undernutrition in different gestation periods for function of the kidney. This studyhad two sections. In the first section, 5 groups were formed. 10g/d diet was given in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trimesterand throughout the pregnancy period. The control group was fed a normal diet. In the second section, 3 groupsformed and all the rats take 10 g/d diet throughout pregnancy period. To determine the effect of endogenousglucocorticoids first group was treated with metyrapone, second group metyrapone+dexamethasone and theplacebo injected saline until 14 days of pregnancy. The offsprings body and kidney weights were detected inthe 0, 3rd and 20th weeks of age. Renal extraction functions and blood pressures from tail detected in the 20thweek of age. Urinary excretion and glomerular filtration rate were low in rats that had dietary restriction in thelast trimester. The glomerular filtration rates were found to be low in the group that had diet restriction duringthe whole pregnancy. Blood pressure values were found to be lower in the group that had diet restriction duringtheir pregnancy compared to the control group. Kidney weights were similar in all groups in the first phase. Itwas observed that renal excretion functions were preserved in the group receiving metyrapone treatment, butthere was no statistically significant difference between the results. Low blood pressures were normalized withmetyrapone treatment. The kidney sizes at the 20th week of the rats which receiving metyrapone treatment werefound to be smaller than those receiving physiological saline solution. Food restriction destroys renal functionsbut no effects with high blood pressure in adulthood. Glucocortiod exposure in pregnancy may reduce renaldevelopment.
The study of urban form in Spain
Authors: Ibarz Joan Vilagrasa
Published: August 2022

This paper traces the history of the study of urban form in Spain, paying special attention to the work of geographers. A periodization is established in which Spanish contributions are related to the growth of towns, urban innovations and foreign intellectual influences. The first period lasted from the second half of the nineteenth century to the Civil War (1936-39) and preceded the emergence of academic lines of investigation. The second period lasted from the Civil War until the early 1970s, years of great urban growth with little consideration for the historic past of the town. The 1970s were a decade of reorientation. Many important foreign contributions were assimilated, especially those derived from French urban sociology, Anglo-Saxon urban geography, and Italian architecture and urban history. Since the early 1980s a more interdisciplinary perspective has emerged. The most important long-term change has been the development away from an initial dependence on French research to a greater acceptance of other foreign ideas. The study of urban form has become established as an important field among Spanish scholars.
