Published: July 2024

As the world enters into the era of electrifying transportation for cleaner energy, lithium-ion battery (LIB)-powered electric vehicles have drawn great attention in recent years. However, the fast-charging capability of LIBs has long been regarded as the technological obstacle to the wider adoption of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) in the market. A substantial challenge associated with fast charging is the formation of Li plating on the graphite anode as it is the major contributor of side reactions during cell operations. In this review, the fundamentals of Li plating and corresponding influencing factors (including state of charge [SOC], charging current density, temperature, and N/P ratio) for the Li-ion intercalation process are first elucidated under fast-charging conditions. Furthermore, conventional strategies to suppress Li plating by enhancing ion transport kinetics between interface and electrode through anode engineering and electrolyte design are also summarized and analyzed. Then, innovative strategies for achieving ultrahigh SOC of anodes by regulating Li plating morphology on host materials to construct hybrid anode storage are discussed in detail. Two types of strategies are compared in terms of cell performance, process simplicity, and safety concerns. Last, we highlight some research orientations and perspectives pertaining to the development of hybrid anode storage, providing effective approaches to address Li plating issues for fast-charging LIBs.

Published: July 2024

The tradeoffs between the spatial and temporal resolutions for the remote sensing instruments limit their capacity to monitor the eutrophic status of inland lakes. Spatiotemporal fusion (STF) provides a cost-effective way to obtain remote sensing data with both high spatial and temporal resolutions by blending multisensor observations. However, remote sensing reflectance (

R
rs

) over water surface with a relatively low signal-to-noise ratio is prone to be contaminated by large uncertainties in the fusion process. To present a comprehensive analysis on the influence of processing and modeling errors, we conducted an evaluation study to understand the potential, uncertainties, and limitations of using STF for monitoring chlorophyll a (Chla) concentration in an inland eutrophic water (Chaohu Lake, China). Specifically, comparative tests were conducted on the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 image pairs. Three typical STF methods were selected for comparison, i.e., Fit-FC, spatial and temporal nonlocal filter-based fusion model, and the flexible spatiotemporal data fusion. The results show as follows: (a) among the influencing factors, atmospheric correction uncertainties and geometric misregistration have larger impacts on the fusion results, compared with radiometric bias between the imaging sensors and STF modeling errors; and (b) the machine-learning-based Chla inversion accuracy of the fusion data [
R
2
= 0.846 and root mean square error (RMSE) = 17.835 μg/l] is comparable with that of real Sentinel-2 data (
R
2
= 0.856 and RMSE = 16.601 μg/l), and temporally dense Chla results can be produced with the integrated Sentinel-2 and fusion image datasets. These findings will help to provide guidelines to design STF framework for monitoring aquatic environment of inland waters with remote sensing data.

The areas of security and wildlife monitoring constantly change, and the use of CCTV surveillance cameras surely has improved our ability to protect a range of environments. However, innovative methods are needed to address the persistent challenge of efficiently examining large quantities of video in cases of theft or animal contact. This study presents a new "Automated Catalogue System using Object Detection," which makes use of innovative technologies like Single Shot Multibox Detector (SSD), OpenCV, and MobileNetV3. The system catalogs objects that are identified and operates in real time using a camera. It logs critical data, such as the name of the detected object's category, the time, date, and confidence level. In addition to increasing security measures, this project addresses wildlife-associated problems in an innovative manner, providing a solution for situations where wild animals break into human settlements. The project uses an automatic categorization approach to take photographs and record them, then uses a user-friendly web application to provide an accessible record. This comprehensive strategy removes uncertainty regarding animal encounters and provides communities with a dependable tool for wildlife monitoring and awareness. Because it combines accurate categorization, image capturing, and real-time object detection, this initiative is a major contribution to technical progress. This flexible device can be used for both managing animals and security surveillance.

Authors: I. T. Ayorinde
Published: July 2024

Cyber attacks are malicious activities conducted in the digital realm with the intent of exploiting vulnerabilities, stealing sensitive information, disrupting operations, or causing damage to computer systems and networks. Network security is one of the viable ways of mitigating against cyber attacks. This study, through machine learning technique, was able to discover certain parameters that need to be taken cognizant of while working in a networking environment. An online network database retrieved from Kaggle was used in this study. Six inputs were used for the prediction of cyber attacks severity levels which was simulated with Naive Bayes algorithm in the Rapidminer Studio. The results show that the severity level “High” has the highest values for both raw and predicted data. It was also recorded that TCP has the least value (34%) for the predicted “High” severity level which shows that it is a good protocol to be used. On the other hand, HTTP had the highest value (67%) for the predicted “High” severity level which means that it is highly vulnerable to attack. With these results, internet users should make it of high priority to secure their data and network always by choosing the right protocols.
Lifranum : Coconstruire un corpus et une archive de littérature nativement numérique
Authors: Cote Christian
Published: July 2024

Nous présentons la première phase du projet ANR Lifranum, qui consiste à élaborer un corpus et une archive du web littéraire francophone. Nous présentons une méthodologie qui permet d’identifier sur le web les URL pertinentes, d’enregistrer la partie du réseau social dans lequel chacune de ces URL se trouve insérée, et enfin de récupérer ces URL par un crawl. Cette analyse est d’abord manuelle et repose sur les réseaux sociaux d’écrivains. La particularité de notre travail réside dans le fait que nous couplons cette méthode par une procédure de validation inverse, qui part d’une analyse automatique pour ensuite opérer un tri manuel et enfin réaliser un crawl complémentaire, à visée patrimoniale et réalisé par la BNF. Enfin, nous nous interrogerons sur la façon dont on peut caractériser et utiliser ces objets numériques, corpus et archives, dans le cadre d’investigations diverses. Nous pourrons alors proposer les contours de ce corpus comprenant plus de 1000 écrivains publiant sur le web, et nous envisagerons les implications qu’il peut avoir sur l’approche du fait littéraire, quelles que soient les entrées scientifiques choisies.
Bases de données et lignes brisées
Authors: Gervais Bertrand
Published: July 2024

Cet article entend définir les liens entre bases de données et pratiques narratives en contexte numérique. Comment narrativise-t-on une base de données ? Quels en sont les modes d’actualisation dans un structure narrative ? Sa présence nécessaire est-elle tacite ou explicite ? L’amont du récit, en d’autres mots, est-il révélé ou non ? Que sa réalité ait changé de façon déterminante, on ne peut plus en douter, mais de quelle manière son agir est-il représenté, voire symboliquement pris en charge ? Afin d’explorer les modes d'actualisation narrative des bases de données, j’identifierai trois catégories, qui sont autant de portes d’entrée de cette relation : 1 – le mode d’acquisition des données ; 2 – le type de récit généré ; 3 – le mode de présence et de mise en scène de la base de données à l’œuvre. Je décrirai ces catégories à partir d’exemples précis qui en illustrent le fonctionnement.

Bahçelievler İlçesinde Kentleşme Süreci
Authors: Şimşek Mesut , Doğan Mesut
Published: July 2024

Bahçelievler ilçesinde, kentleşme faaliyetleri İstanbul’un 1950’lerde aldığı yoğun göçle başlamıştır. Bu tarihten önce saha, uzun yıllar boyunca Yenibosna ve Kocasinan köyleri ile çevresindeki çiftliklerden ibaret olup İstanbul ve Bakırköy’ün kırsal alanlarına dahildir. 1950’li yıllarda kırlardan başlayan göçle İstanbul hızla büyümüş ve Bahçelievler şehrin önemli bir parçası olmuştur. Bahçelievler’in güneyinden geçen D 100 karayolu (E-5) ve çevresine kurulan fabrikalar yerleşimin büyüme yönüne etki eden en önemli faktör olmuştur. Araştırma sahasındaki eski köyler göç sonucunda plansız olarak güneydeki karayoluna doğru büyümüş, karayolu üzerinde oluşmaya başlayan yerleşmelerle birleşmiştir. Bundan farklı olarak Bahçelievler Mahallesi’ne tekabül eden saha ise Henri Prost tarafından tasarlanan plan doğrultusunda kentleşmiştir. Böylelikle araştırma sahasında hem plansız hem planlı kentleşme görülmektedir. Bahçelievler’in farklı alanlarında gerçekleşen kentleşme faaliyetlerinin yapısal farkları güncel kentsel sorunların temelini oluşturmaktadır. Göç sebebiyle plansız kentleşmenin görüldüğü kesime kıyasla, ilçedeki altyapı sorunları, Prost’un planına bağlı gelişen Bahçelievler Mahallesi’nde en azdır. İlçe aynı zamanda birinci derece deprem bölgesinde yer almaktadır. Deprem riskiyle hızlanan kentsel dönüşüm faaliyetleri Bahçelievler’de tam anlamıyla uygulanmamaktadır. Eski veya dayanıksız binaların yıkılıp yeniden yapılması depreme dirençli yapı sayısını arttırsa da mevcut altyapı problemlerinin çözümünü sağlamamaktadır. Kentsel dönüşüm faaliyetleri geniş alanda uygulandığında Bahçelievler’deki kentsel sorunları çözecektir. Ayrıca kentsel dönüşüm uygulanırken ilçedeki nüfusun artmamasına dikkat edilmelidir.

Numerical investigation of dynamic plasmonic color generated via photothermal deformation of a metal semi-shell structure
Authors: Magari Masaaki , Fujimura Ryushi
Published: July 2024

Dyes and pigments for coloring have issues such as fading, stability at high temperatures, and submicron coloration. To solve these issues and realize a coloring method that is easily applicable to larger areas at a lower cost, we study plasmonic coloring using dynamic wavelength tuning via photothermal deformation of self-assembled metal semi-shell nanoparticles. Using discrete dipole approximation on a nanoparticle with a photothermally deformable metal semi-shell, we construct chromaticity diagrams for various substrate materials, semi-shell materials, and nanoparticle densities as well as present the possibility of achieving a wide color gamut by plasmonic coloration.
Dynamic wide gamut color generation using highly lossy metal-based metal-dielectric-metal structure
Authors: Takashima Yuusuke , Nagamatsu Kentaro , Haraguchi Masanobu , Naoi Yoshiki
Published: July 2024

Dynamic structural color control across a wide spectral range was experimentally achieved via phase retardation between orthogonal polarization states in a Ni/SiO2/Ni-subwavelength grating (SWG) structure. The fabricated Ni/SiO2/Ni-SWG structure exhibited spectrally broadened resonant reflection dips due to the optical damping of Ni. The resonances induced a large phase retardation between the p- and s-polarizations over a wide spectral range, and the retardation changed the reflected polarization states depending on the wavelength. The rotation of the analyzing polarizer enabled the dynamic variation of the reflected structural color from the sample across the wide visible color gamut.

Published: July 2024

Acne vulgaris is a widespread skin condition affecting up to 90% of adolescents, with 50% of cases
persisting into adulthood. By age 40, around 1% of men and 5% of women still exhibit symptoms. This
high prevalence results in over 3.5 million healthcare visits annually. The multifactorial pathogenesis of acne includes hormonal
uctuations, increased sebum production, keratinization alterations, and Propionibacterium acnes proliferation. Key risk
factors include hormonal changes, genetic predisposition, diet, stress, and skin care practices. Clinically, acne manifests as
non-inammatory lesions (comedones) and inammatory lesions (papules, pustules, nodules). Diagnosis involves a thorough
clinical evaluation, with severity guiding treatment. Management ranges from topical treatments for mild acne to systemic
therapies for severe cases. Managing complications such as post-inammatory hyperpigmentation and scarring is crucial,
utilizing topical agents, chemical peels, and laser treatments.
UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEXITY OF FOOD INSECURITY IN ODISHA: A MULTIFACETED EXAMINATION
Authors: Panda Satyananda
Published: July 2024

Food insecurity remains a pressing issue in Odisha, India, with multifaceted dimensions that defy simple
solutions. This article provides a concise overview of the complexities involved in understanding and
addressing food insecurity in Odisha. Historical factors, including colonial legacies and recurrent natural disasters, have
shaped the state's agricultural landscape and continue to inuence food production and distribution systems. Climate change
exacerbates these challenges, posing threats to agricultural productivity and livelihoods, particularly for small-scale farmers.
The consequences of food insecurity extend beyond mere hunger, encompassing a spectrum of nutritional deciencies and
health implications, including malnutrition and susceptibility to diseases. Social and cultural factors further compound the
issue, with gender disparities and traditional practices affecting food access and utilization. Government policies and
programs, such as the public distribution system and mid-day meal scheme, play a crucial role in addressing food insecurity.
However, their effectiveness is tempered by implementation challenges and gaps in coverage. Non-governmental
organizations (NGOs) and civil society also contribute to the response, implementing innovative solutions and communitybased interventions. This abstract underscore the need for a comprehensive, holistic approach to tackle food insecurity in
Odisha. By addressing its multiple dimensions, including social, economic, and environmental factors, stakeholders can work
towards sustainable solutions that ensure food sovereignty and resilience for all.

Published: July 2024

The study investigated the impact of Acacia nilotica and Annona senegalensis leaves, as potential sources of phytogenics in broiler diets through a completely randomized design experiment. For both plants, chickens in control were fed diets without phytogenic sources, while the chicken in the test groups T2, T3, and T4, were fed with diets containing 200 g leaves per kg of feed, 200 g seed (ANS) per kg of feed, and 100 g each of both leaves and seeds per kg of feed, respectively. Performance parameters including body weight, feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion ratio was recorded while haematological parameters including white blood cells, haematocrit, platelets, haemoglobin, and red blood cells of the chickens were assessed at the end of the study. The results showed that broilers fed diet containing both Acacia nilotica leaves and seeds (T4) had the highest body weight at 8 weeks (5011.10g, p<0.05), total feed intake (4100.00g, p<0.05), weight gain (4298.70g, p<0.05), and the most efficient feed-to-gain ratio (0.95, p<0.05). The broiler chickens fed diets containing Annona senegalensis leaves and seeds showed no significant differences in final body weight or weight gain compared to the control group (p = 0.414), with T3 having the highest average final body weight (3480g). However, feed intake patterns varied significantly, with T2 having the lowest average feed intake (2993g, p<0.05), and the control group having the highest feed intake, while no significant differences were observed in feed conversion ratios (FCR) among all groups, indicating similar feed efficiency across diets. Supplementation with Acacia nilotica leaves and seeds significantly increased white blood cell counts (p<0.05) in broiler chickens, with T2, T3, and T4 showing higher values (98.78 x 106/μL, 101.08 x 106/μL, and 101.24 x 106/μL, respectively) compared to control (82.98 x 106/μL). Conversely, Annona senegalensis leaves and seeds did not significantly affect white blood cell counts or other haematological parameters (p>0.05). This study demonstrates the potential of Acacia nilotica and Annona senegalensis as promising phytogenic alternatives for enhancing broiler chicken performance. However further research is warranted to explore the specific bioactive compounds in the test ingredients for these effects and optimize their use in poultry diets for sustainable and productive poultry production.

Published: July 2024

The knowledge of plankton species composition and distribution to time and space are of great importance as reduction in plankton populations could lead to food unavailability for higher trophic levels (fish) in aquatic ecosystems. Phytoplankton are the most important primary producers and biological indicators in aquatic ecosystems. This study assessed plankton composition in Alape River, Ondo State. Water samples were collected from January to June 2022 from station I and II, were transported to the laboratory for qualitative and quantitative analysis of the monthly occurrence, distribution and abundance of phytoplanktons species. The results showed that annual mean percentage composition of different groups of phytoplankton contributed nearly 29.39% of chlorophyceae, 12.68% of bacillariophyceae, 46.4% of myxophyceae and 11.53% of euglennineae in Station I and 23.20% of chlorophyceae, 21.60% of bacillariophyceae, 33.60% of myxophyceae and 21.60% of euglennineae in Station II. The annual mean percentage composition of different groups of zooplankton showed that rotifera contributed 25.56%, cladocera 22.22%, copepoda 27.41% and protozoa 24.81% in Station I while rotifera contributed 25.56%, cladocera 22.22%, copepoda 27.41% and protozoa 24.81% in Station II. Thus, the study concluded that the dominance of plankton species such as phytoplankton (chlorophyceae, bacillariophyceae, myxophyceae and euglinae) and Zooplankton (cladocera, rotifera, copepoda and protozoa) as strongly showed that the river is eutropic. The study provides important baseline data on the composition and distribution of zooplankton in the Alape River, which can be used for future comparative studies and to monitor changes in the zooplankton community over time. There is a need for increased public awareness of the importance of plankton in aquatic ecosystems

Indigenous leafy vegetables are underutilized source of minerals and vitamins in sub-South Africa. However, they could play a vital role in addressing household food insecurity and malnutrition challenges. Paw-paw leave is a highly nutritious but underutilized. It is consumed by some communities in Africa. This study was undertaken to evaluate the nutritive profile of paw- paw leaf meal (PLM) and its effects on the growth performance of broiler chickens. Nutrients profile analysis of the leaf meal was carried out and the nutrients profile established. Ninety six (96) - two weeks-old (Anak) chickens with average initial weight of 205. 12 ± 2.28g were used in a 56 days feeding trial. The chickens were randomly allocated to four dietary treatments in a completely randomized design (CRD). Each treatment was replicated three times having eight chickens per replicate. T1 (Control) contained 0% PLM while T2, T3 and T4 contained 5, 10 and 15% PLM, respectively. Data were generated on feed intake, weight gain and feed conversion ratio. All data generated were subjected to One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).Mean values were separated using Least significant difference (LSD).The result showed that PLM contain crude protein (25.30%). Crude fiber (8.86%), ether extracts (0.81%), ash (8.88%), Nitrogen- free extract (43. 82%) and moisture (12.33%).There was no significantly (P>0.05) difference in all the parameters studied except total and daily feed intake. It is concluded that the supplementation of PLM up to 15% optimal level is quite adequate to enhance growth without any deleterious effect on the chickens and therefore recommended for poultry farmers

This study, therefore, evaluated the response of broiler chickens to Picralima nitida seed powder (PnSP). A total of 150-day-old Arbor Acre chicks were divided into 5 dietary treatments with 3 replicates of ten birds each. In a completely randomized design, the starter (21 days) and finisher (28 days) diets for the chickens were 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2% PnSP-based. Average Daily Gain (ADG), Average Daily Feed Intake (ADFI), Feed to Gain Ratio (FGR), Performance Efficiency Index (PEI), carcass (cut-up parts), selected organs and intestinal morphometry were evaluated. Data collected were subjected to a one-way analysis of variance and treatment means separated using Duncan Multiple Range Test. At the starter phase, ADG increased (p=0.04) with the use of PnSP, and the optimal value was obtained at 0.15%, and the best (p=0.04) PEI 171.91 was obtained in chickens subjected to 0.1% PnSP. Abdominal fat (p<0.001) decreased in broilers fed PnSP-supplemented diets while the highest (p=0.01) thigh weight was obtained from chickens fed 0.1% PnSP supplemented diet. In conclusion, supplementing 0.2%PnSP in broiler diet had no adverse effect on the performance and carcass characteristics of broilers, however, 0.1% PnSP gave the optimum inclusion level

The article proposes and evaluates how a teacher's blog and personal website can become useful learning tools for acquiring professional skills. Learners are required, after opening a blog/personal website, to document the activities carried out in the classroom, reflect on these activities during the training period, and use tags as elements of self-reflection on the skills developed during the training. To monitor the learners' progress in developing the teacher's blog/personal website, a questionnaire is used at the beginning and the end of the training period. This information is supplemented with an analysis of the content published on the blogs/websites. The study will also reveal whether the participating teachers consider the blogs/websites valid tools for acquiring professional skills, whether they are satisfied with the teaching-learning process, and whether they would recommend these tools to other educators.

Introduction: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a significant global health challenge, annually contributing to approximately one million deaths from complications such as liver failure, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: This observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP), Dhaka Cantonment, Dhaka, Bangladesh, from 3rd March 2020 to 2nd September 2020. Inclusion criteria required patients to be HBsAg positive for at least six months, resulting in a total of 101 patients included in this study. HBsAg and HBeAg were detected using ELISA, while HBV DNA levels were quantified by real-time PCR. Result: The study found that 47% of the patients belonged to the 26-45 years age group, with 62% being male and 38% female (male-to-female ratio 1.63:1). Among HBeAg-positive cases, 86.84% had high viral loads (>105 copies/ml), while 13.16% exhibited medium viral loads (103 – 105 copies/ml). Among HBeAg-negative cases, 6.35% showed detectable HBV DNA with low viral loads (<102 copies/ml). Higher sample-to-cut-off ratios (S/CO) indicated elevated HBV DNA levels in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients compared to lower ratios in HBeAg-negative patients. Conclusion: Chronic hepatitis B represents a serious viral disease that, without careful monitoring, can lead to the development of HCC and cirrhosis in a significant proportion of patients. Regular surveillance and effective management strategies are essential in mitigating these risks.
