Faces of cosmological polytopes
Authors: Kühne Lukas , Monin Leonid
Published: June 2024

A cosmological polytope is a lattice polytope introduced by Arkani-Hamed, Benincasa, and Postnikov in their study of the wavefunction of the universe in a class of cosmological models. More concretely, they construct a cosmological polytope for any Feynman diagram, i.e., an undirected graph. In this paper, we initiate a combinatorial study of these polytopes. We give a complete description of their faces, identify minimal faces that are not simplices and compute the number of faces in specific instances. In particular, we give a recursive description of the

-vector of cosmological polytopes of trees.
Series‐arc‐fault diagnosis using feature fusion‐based deep learning model
Authors: Choi Won‐Kyu , Kim Se‐Han , Bae Ji‐Hoon
Published: June 2024

This paper describes the detection of series arc faults, which constitute the major cause of electrical fires, in a power distribution system. Because the characteristics of series arc faults change considerably depending on the load type, their accurate detection and analysis are difficult. We propose a series‐arc‐fault detector that uses a transfer learning (TL)‐based feature fusion model. The model is trained stagewise for various features in the time and frequency domains using a one‐dimensional convolutional neural network combined with a long short‐term memory model that uses an attention mechanism to accurately detect arc‐fault features. To enhance the reliability of the proposed model, we implement an arc‐fault generator compliant with the UL1699 standard and acquire high‐quality data that suitably reflect the real environment. Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves an accuracy of 99.99% in classifying series arc faults for five different loads. Hence, a performance improvement of approximately 1.7% in classification accuracy is reached compared with a feature fusion model that does not incorporate TL‐based model transfer and the attention mechanism.
The Significance of Colours in Bram Stoker’s Dracula
Authors: Jakoša Nina
Published: June 2024

The article provides a corpus-assisted analysis of colour terms in Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula. The aim of the analysis is to establish whether colours contribute to the novel’s Gothic mood. Colours can be used to evoke specific atmospheres; they also bear symbolic meanings. This makes them a powerful option for enhancing the mood of a Gothic horror novel. The analysis indicates that white, red and black are the most important colours in Dracula, appearing in distinct patterns and contexts.
Margaret Atwood’s Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth
Authors: Maver Igor
Published: June 2024

Margaret Atwood’s provocative book of non-fiction contains many literary references, which help to effectively highlight her points about such a topical matter as debt, debt as a philosophical, politico-economic, religious, and historical issue over the centuries. In the central chapters of the book she looks at the Protestant Reformation and the introduction of interest on loans and in this light analyzes the novels by Dickens, Irving, Thackeray and G. Eliot. Her final statement in the book is, however, about the ecological debt we all have to pay to Earth in order to ensure our existence.
Christian Theological Education and Discipleship
Authors: Adedibu Babatunde
Published: June 2024

Christian theological education and discipleship have been veritable mediums for instilling the appropriate spiritual virtues and characters in new converts. Previous scholarships on Christian theological education in the African context have underpinned the contributions and possibilities of theological education in African contexts to explore the connectivity between Christian theological education and discipleship to underscore what they portend for resolving the church’s challenges and engendering development and transformation. Using analytical and historical approaches, the paper discusses the significance, challenges, and prospects of Christian Theological Education in Africa. It highlights the failures of the Church and how theological education and discipleship can serve as a panacea in tackling them. Finally, it argues for repositioning of theological education towards mission, socioeconomic, and justice dimensions, especially in the Church and the state.

Primer Consenso intersocietario para el tratamiento de la obesidad en adultos en Argentina
Authors: Schraier Silvio D.
Published: June 2024

Observando epistemológicamente la obesidad, fue Hipócrates de Cos (460 a.C.), con su método sobre la experiencia sensible, quién manifestó que “la muerte súbita es más frecuente en los obesos que en los delgados” y que “el obeso tiene laxitud muscular y complexión roja por humedad”.
Claudio Galeno de Pérgamo (130-201) hizo referencia a dos tipos de obesidad: la moderada, considerada como natural, y la inmoderada, como mórbida, producto de un estilo de vida inadecuado, teniendo el individuo un importante grado de culpabilidad y responsabilidad por su enfermedad.
En The Lancet (1849), Hassal presentó la teoría sobre algunos tipos de obesidad dependientes de un aumento del número de adipocitos. Se discutía sobre el comportamiento de los individuos obesos respecto del gasto energético de su masa muscular.
Investigating the genetic architecture of heat stress response and related traits in pig populations
Authors:   , Oliveira Letícia Fernanda de
Published: June 2024

Global warming presents a significant challenge to livestock production, impacting animal welfare and performance. The resulting increase in temperatures promotes heat stress (HS) as a major concern in animal production, highlighting the need to breed for more resilient animals. Enhancing heat tolerance could improve animals’ ability to cope with HS conditions. To make genetic progress in HS resilience, it is crucial to understand the genetic architecture of traits related to resilience and the genetic mechanisms underlying the heat stress response. This study aimed to investigate the genetic architecture of HS response indicators and related traits in pigs, with three main objectives. First, to assess the impact of non-additive genetic effects on variance components estimation in two independent datasets: crossbred and purebred populations, and in genomic prediction in a purebred population. Second, to identify genomic regions, candidate genes, and potential pleiotropic variants significantly associated with indicators of HS response in lactating sows using imputed whole-genome sequence (WGS) data. Third, to detect copy number variations (CNVs) and CNV regions (CNVRs) in pigs and explore their associations with physiological and anatomical indicators of HS response measured in crossbred (Large White x Landrace) lactating sows. The inclusion of non- additive genetic effects in the models did not improve the accuracy of genomic breeding values for performance traits in purebred pigs. However, there was a significant re- ranking of selection candidates depending on the model fitted. Low non-additive genetic variance estimates were observed for most heat tolerance indicators in crossbred pigs, except for the panting score and hair density. Physiological and anatomical indicators of HS response in lactating sows were found to have additive genetic variation but they are highly polygenic. Candidate genes associated with heat shock protein activities, immune response, and cellular oxidative stress were identified, indicating their importance in HS response. Various CNVs and CNVRs were identified in the genome of the crossbred pig population evaluated. Fifteen CNVRs were significantly associated with physiological and anatomical indicators of HS response in lactating sows. Several genes involved in immune and stress responses overlapped with the CNVRs, suggesting that these CNVRs might contribute to climatic resilience in pigs during the lactation stage. Keywords: climatic resilience; genomic prediction; non-additive genetic effects; pleiotropy; genome-wide association study; copy number variation.

Published: June 2024

Tahun 2023 adalah tahun pertama dilaksanakannya mekanisme salur langsung Bantuan Operasional Kesehatan (BOK) puskesmas. Tujuan dari perubahan mekanisme ini adalah untuk mempercepat penerimaan dana BOK di tingkat puskesmas, mempercepat pelaksanaan kegiatan di puskesmas, menyederhanakan proses birokrasi penyaluran dana BOK di tingkat daerah, meningkatkan akuntabilitas penyaluran, dan untuk memonitor proses penyaluran serta penyerapan BOK puskesmas secara langsung.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas dari penerapan kebijakan mekanisme salur langsung dana BOK puskesmas. Penelitian kualitatif dilakukan di enam puskesmas di Kabupaten Pulang Pisau, Kalimantan Tengah. Wawancara dilakukan terhadap delapan orang informan kunci yang terkait dengan pengelolaan BOK puskesmas di Kabupaten Pulang Pisau. Materi wawancara mencakupi perencanaan penggunaan anggaran (planning), pengorganisasian (organizing), pelaksanaan kegiatan (actuating), dan pengawasan (controlling). Proses perencanaan dan pengawasan sudah efektif (efektifitas tinggi). Meski demikian, proses pengorganisasian dan pelaksanaan masih belum efektif sehingga menyebabkan tujuan dari penerapan mekanisme salur langsung tersebut kurang maksimal. Oleh karena itu, puskesmas perlu membuat Surat Keputusan (SK) Penetapan Pengelola Program. SK ini diharapkan dapat menghindari rangkap jabatan di Puskesmas sehingga pengelola penyaluran dana BOK dapat lebih berdedikasi, mengurangi beban kerja Bendahara BOK dalam hal pelaporan, serta menanggulangi masalah salur langsung dana yang harusnya diberikan ke kader atau masyarakat desa yang mayoritas masih tidak memiliki rekening bank. Dengan demikian diharapkan tidak terjadi lagi penurunan belanja kegiatan dibanding tahun sebelumnya.

Re-thinking Divinity in the Modernizing Rural Space in South Asia:
Authors: Panda Arnab , Mukhopadhyay Anway
Published: June 2024

Tradition and modernity as epistemic categories are often seen as complete antitheses, and therefore, the traditional and ethnic rituals attached to “divine sacrality” are often sidelined as irrational by modern instrumental logic. This political undermining and thereby endangering of the “divine sacred,” especially in the semi-secular context of rural South Asia, invariably results in cultural “theocide,” which automatically leads toextreme sociocultural upheaval. That is precisely what this paper plans to scrutinize by closely reading Tarashankar Bandyopadhyay’s classic Bengali novel Hansuli Banker Upakatha translated as The Lore of Hansuli Turn. While exploring the sociocultural roots of “theocide,” this paper will specifically focus on the phenomenological dissimilarity between the “Deus absconditus”1 (the hidden God) of the “modernized” West and the enfleshed divine avatars in South Asia, closer not just to embodied human existence but also to non-human existence. Adding to that, the paper will also examine the religious concept of the “sacredscape”2 and its spatial eco-theological connection with divine sacrality by utilizing Mircea Eliade’s idea of ‘hierophany.” Finally, deviating from the hyper-rationalized discourse of “modern enlightenment,” the paper will highlight the “post-secular” notion of inner enlightenment, which seamlessly synchronizes with the South-Asian tradition of spiritual enlightenment(s).

This article presents the results of studying the floral diversity of the Northern region of Kazakhstan, including the Pavlodar region. The studied area is characterized by a rich and diverse nature, combining floodplain, steppe and forest landscapes. More than 500 species of wild higher plants grow in the Pavlodar region, and many of them can be used as food. Plants serve not only as a direct source of food, but also as technological raw materials for processing traditional food products – to obtain original taste qualities and maximum benefit. With the help of wild plants, many everyday problems can be solved – both at home and in the field, not only without food, but also without a hardware store. In addition, plants can provide lovers of artistic creativity with such an amount of decorative materials that cannot be found in specialized stores. And with the introduction of scientific and applied information about wild plants into the educational process, we will be able to educate a creatively thinking specialist who will become the creator of the country’s «green economy» in the future. Based on the above, the main task was to study the species composition of edible wild plants of the Pavlodar region and the prospects for their possible use, as well as the introduction of work with wild plants and plant raw materials in the organization of the educational process.

An appendix of CD releases includes entries that detail the record company, date of issue, song list, and performer list. Other appendices include a chronology, a list of movies, and a resource guide to Satchmo on the Web; a bibliography offers yet another useful tool for fans and students of Armstrong's life and music. A selection of historic black-and-white photos completes the volume.
Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis identifies protein C rather than protein S or antithrombin-III is associated with deep venous thrombosis
Authors: Shu Liang , Sun Liyan , Yu Cong , Ren Dabin , Zheng Ping , Zhang Yisong
Published: June 2024

Introduction

Observational studies have indicated significant contributions of protein C and protein S to thrombotic diseases, yet the "anticoagulation paradox" in deep venous thrombosis (DVT) remains unresolved. Therefore, we conducted an investigation to discern the causal effects of protein C, protein S and antithrombin-III on DVT risk.

Material and methods

We employed a two-sample (one to estimate gene-exposure relationship and the other to estimate gene-outcome relationship) bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) framework to assess the causal associations between protein C, protein S, antithrombin-III and DVT.

Results

Genetic associations with DVT were extracted from a comprehensive genome-wide association study involving 484,598 individuals. In the multivariable MR analysis, the odds ratios for DVT per standard deviation (SD) increase were 1.005 (95% CI: 1.002-1.008; P <0.001) for protein C, 0.997 (95% CI: 0.992-1.001; P=0.146) for protein S, and 1.001 (95% CI: 0.998-1.005; P=0.456) for antithrombin-III. A two-step MR mediation analysis revealed that the association between protein C and DVT was partially mediated by body mass index, with a mediated proportion of 11.4% (95% confidence interval, 2.3% to 79.2%).

Conclusions

These findings provide insights into the genetic relationship between relative protein C rather than protein S or antithrombin-III levels and DVT, offering potential utility in identifying at-risk patients for DVT development.

Determinants of sustainability reporting on oil and gas companies in Nigeria
Authors: Abiodun A. Osinbowale  , Dr. Saheed A. Lateef  , Prof. Emeka E. Ene
Published: June 2024

The research investigates the factors influencing sustainability reporting among oil and gas companies in Nigeria. It explores the intricate web of economic, environmental, and social drivers shaping the disclosure practices within this industry. There is a debate on whether reporting non-financial information such as reporting the social and environmental impact of the activities of a corporation is relevant information for decision by users of the information, which can affect the value of the corporation. Using the Ohlson (1995) model which was modified, the study used share price as a measure of the value of the oil and gas firms studied, and a strict bias for only GRI social and environmental disclosures, as explanatory variables. Applying regression analysis, the study found that social information disclosure is relevant for making decisions that can lead to positive and significant change in share price. Environmental disclosures on the other hand were found not to have any value relevance. The study advocated for full compliance to the GRI social disclosures by the oil and gas firms for optimum firm value, which should also lead to increased societal and communal acceptance through the corporate social responsibility efforts. In addition, the study recommends that oil and gas firms, because of the nature of their activities on the environment, should be mandated by relevant regulatory authority to disclose their environmental performance using the GRI parameters. Through a comprehensive analysis, this study sheds light on the complexities and motivations underlying sustainability reporting initiatives, offering insights crucial for stakeholders and policymakers navigating the sustainability landscape in Nigeria's oil and gas sector.

Legal Safeguards for Tourists as Consumers: An Analysis of Accident Incidences at Tourist Sites
Authors: Prima Anggriawan Teddy , Kartika Wardhani Shinfani
Published: June 2024

Accidents at tourist sites significantly harm tourists who are also consumers. This study aims to investigate both preventive and repressive forms of legal protection for tourists, especially in cases of accidents at tourist destinations. The research employs a qualitative methodology with a normative research design, focusing on statutory regulations and legal concepts. The findings indicate that preventive legal protection is lacking due to inadequate implementation of consumer protection and tourism laws, resulting in incidents with casualties, such as the one at The Geong Limpakuwus Pine Forest Tourism in Sumbang, Banyumas. Repressive legal protection is also insufficient, as the accountability of tourist sites in providing insurance to victims has not been fulfilled. Consequently, the legal protection for tourists as consumers in accident scenarios is not effectively provided.
Technical note: Influence of different averaging metrics and temporal resolutions on the aerosol pH calculated by thermodynamic modeling
Authors: Wang Haoqi , Tian Xiao , Zhao Wanting , Li Jiacheng , Yu Haoyu , Feng Yinchang , Song Shaojie
Published: June 2024

Abstract. Aerosol pH is commonly used to characterize the acidity of aqueous aerosols and is of significant scientific interest due to its close relationship with atmospheric processes. The estimation of ambient aerosol pH usually relies on the thermodynamic modeling approach. In existing chemical transport model and field observation studies, the temporal resolution of the chemical and meteorological data given as input to thermodynamic models varies substantially, ranging from less than an hour to a year, because of the inconsistency in the resolution of the original data and the aggregation of time-series data in some studies. Furthermore, the average value of the aerosol pH are represented by diverse metrics of central tendency in existing studies. This study attempts to evaluate the potential discrepancies in the calculated average aerosol pH that arise from differences in both the averaging metric and the temporal resolution, based on the ISORROPIA-II thermodynamic model and example datasets prepared by the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model simulation. Overall, we find that the variation in the temporal resolution of input data may lead to a change of up to more than two units in the average pH, and the averaging metrics calculated based on the pH values of individual samples may be about two units higher than the averaging metrics calculated based on the activity of hydrogen ions. Accordingly, we recommend that the chosen averaging metrics and temporal resolutions should be stated clearly in future studies to ensure comparability of the average aerosol pH between models and/or observations.
A survey of radiative and physical properties of North Atlantic mesoscale cloud morphologies from multiple identification methodologies
Authors: Eastman Ryan , McCoy Isabel L. , Schulz Hauke , Wood Robert
Published: June 2024

Abstract. Three supervised neural network cloud classification routines are applied to daytime MODIS Aqua imagery and compared for the year 2018 over the North Atlantic Ocean. Routines surveyed here include the Morphology Identification Data Aggregated over the Satellite-era (MIDAS), which specializes in subtropical stratocumulus (Sc) clouds; sugar, gravel, flowers, and fish (SGFF), which is focused on shallow cloud systems in the tropical trade winds; and the community record of marine low-cloud mesoscale morphology supported by the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) dataset, which is focused on shallow clouds globally. Comparisons of co-occurrence and vertical and geographic distribution show that morphologies are classified in geographically distinct regions; shallow suppressed and deeper aggregated and disorganized cumulus are seen in the tropical trade winds. Shallow Sc types are frequent in subtropical subsidence regions. More vertically developed solid stratus and open- and closed-cell Sc are frequent in the mid-latitude storm track. Differing classifier routines favor noticeably different distributions of equivalent types. Average scene albedo is more strongly correlated with cloud albedo than cloud amount for each morphology. Cloud albedo is strongly correlated with the fraction of optically thin cloud cover. The albedo of each morphology is dependent on latitude and location in the mean anticyclonic wind flow over the North Atlantic. Strong rain rates are associated with middling values of albedo for many cumuliform types, hinting at a complex relationship between the presence of heavily precipitating cores and cloud albedo. The presence of ice at cloud top is associated with higher albedos. For a constant albedo, each morphology displays a distinct set of physical characteristics.
Mapping vulnerability to climate change for spatial planning in the region of Stuttgart
Authors: McMillan Joanna M. , Göttsche Franziska , Birkmann Joern , Kapp Rainer , Schmidt Corinna , Weisser Britta , Jamshed Ali
Published: June 2024

Abstract. The Stuttgart region in southwest Germany already experiences heat stress and extreme precipitation events. According to German law, spatial planning at the municipal and regional levels has an important role in adapting to such events. However, this is a challenge to achieve alongside other demands on land-use. One important resource to support adaptive planning are spatial risk analyses, which can provide justification for prioritising adaptation and information about where and how to prioritise different measures. Such maps should not just consider information on the nature of the hazards but also on the vulnerability of people and exposed areas. While in theory, this has been recognised and vulnerability analysis methods have been developed, there is a significant gap in linking this research to planning practice in the German context. In this paper, we share insights from developing social vulnerability maps based on an initial analysis of the requirements for such maps from a spatial planning perspective and discuss how such information can be used in planning practice. We propose solutions regarding issues such as spatial resolution, indicator selection, aggregation and complexity, report initial feedback from planners and make recommendations for further bridging the gap between risk and vulnerability research and planning practice.
A Synthesis of Sphagnum Litterbag Experiments: Initial Leaching Losses Bias Decomposition Rate Estimates
Authors: Teickner Henning , Pebesma Edzer , Knorr Klaus-Holger
Published: June 2024

Abstract. Decomposition is one of the major controls of long-term sequestration of carbon in northern peatlands. Our knowledge of the magnitude and controls of decomposition rates is derived to a large extent from litterbag experiments. Similar to other litter types, initial leaching losses may bias decomposition rates of Sphagnum, but their magnitudes and variability are not well known. We present a meta-analysis of 15 Sphagnum litterbag studies to estimate initial leaching losses (l0), to test whether initial leaching losses can bias Sphagnum decomposition rate estimates (k0), and to analyze how initial leaching losses increase errors in k0 estimates. Average l0 estimates range between 3 to 18 mass-%, average k0 estimates between 0.01 to 1.16 yr-1. Simulations and models fitted to empirical data indicate that ignoring initial leaching losses leads to an overestimation of k0. An error analysis suggests that k0 and l0 can be estimated only with relatively large errors because of limitations in the design of most available litterbag experiments. Sampling the first litterbags shortly after the start of the experiments allows more accurate estimation of l0 and k0. We estimated large l0 (>5 mass-%) also for only air-dried samples which could imply that Sphagnum litterbag experiments with dried litter are unrepresentative for natural decomposition processes in which l0 may be smaller according to leaching experiments with fresh litter. We conclude that comparing results of litterbag experiments between experimental treatments and between studies and accurately estimating decomposition rates may be possible only if initial leaching losses are explicitly considered.

Abstract. There is an urgent need to develop sustainable agricultural land use schemes. Intensive crop production has induced increased greenhouse gas emissions and enhanced nutrient and pesticide leaching to groundwater and streams. Climate change is also expected to increase drought risk as well as the frequency of extreme precipitation events in many regions. Consequently, sustainable management schemes require sound knowledge of site-specific soil water processes that explicitly take into account the interplay between soil heterogeneities and crops. In this study, we applied a principal component analysis to a set of 64 soil moisture time series from a diversified cropping field featuring seven distinct crops and two weeding management strategies. Results showed that about 97 % of the spatial and temporal variance of the data set was explained by the first five principal components. Meteorological drivers accounted for 72.3 % of the variance and 17.0 % was attributed to different seasonal behaviour of different crops. While the third (4.1 %) and fourth (2.2 %) principal components were interpreted as effects of soil texture and cropping schemes on soil moisture variance, respectively, the effect of soil depth was represented by the fifth component (1.7 %). However, neither topography nor weed control had a significant effect on soil moisture variance. Contrary to common expectations, soil and rooting pattern heterogeneity seemed not to play a major role. Findings of this study highly depend on local conditions. However, we consider the presented approach generally applicable to a large range of site conditions.

Abstract. Coastal zones are increasingly threatened by extreme sea level events. Storm surges are one of the most hazardous components of these extremes, especially in regions prone to tropical cyclones. This study aims to explore factors affecting the performance of numerical modelling in simulating storm surges in the tropical Atlantic region. The maxima, duration and time evolution of the extreme storm surge events are evaluated for four historical hurricanes by comparison against tide gauge records. The ADCIRC and NEMO ocean models are intercompared using a similar configuration in terms of domain, bathymetry and spatial resolution. These models are then used to perform sensitivity experiments on oceanic and atmospheric forcings, physical parameterizations for wind stress and baroclinic/barotropic modes. NEMO and ADCIRC show a similar skill to simulate storm surges induced by hurricanes. Storm surges simulated with ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis forcing are generally more accurate than those using parametric wind models for simulated hurricanes. The inclusion of the baroclinic processes improves storm surge amplitudes in some coastal locations such as along the southeastern Florida peninsula (USA). Experiments exploring different wind stress implementations and the interactions between storm surges, tides and mean sea level however have shown a minimal impact on storm surges induced by hurricanes.
Investigations into the macrocyclization of poly(2-oxazoline)s and poly(2-oxazine)s

Published: June 2024

This thesis takes a step towards the efficient synthesis of cyclic polymers, which have recently gained significant attention as potent materials in biomedical applications. Using biomedically-relevant poly(2-oxazoline)s and poly(2-oxazine)s, a combination of synthetic and computational approaches identified the importance of the so far overlooked polymer structure on the cyclization reaction. Additionally, it was shown that control over oligomer formation during cyclization can be a valuable tool to adjust material properties of biomedically-relevant hydrogel systems, highlighting the applicability of not only pure cyclic polymers but also cyclic/oligomer mixtures.

Stunting is a type of chronic malnutrition caused by a lack of nutrient intake for a long time, causing growth problems. One of the causes of stunting is early marriage, which has an impact on a mother's knowledge. Mothers, as primary caregivers for toddlers, must get sufficient information about how to optimize child growth and development in the first 1000 days of life so that they can help prevent stunting in children. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there was an effect of education on increasing the knowledge of early childhood mothers about preventing stunting in toddlers in the village of North Bonde. The research method used is pre-experimental design research with the type of one-group pretest posttest design. The sampling technique used is non-probability sampling by means of purposive sampling, so the samples used in this study amounted to 30. The results showed that before being given education, the number of mothers who had a good level of knowledge was 1 person (3.3%), mothers with a fair level of knowledge were 6 people (20%), and those with a poor level of knowledge were 23 people (76.7%). After being given education, there were 9 mothers with a good level of knowledge (30%), 12 mothers with a fair level of knowledge (40%), and 9 mothers with a poor level of knowledge (30%). the average knowledge before being given education was 46.00, after being given education there was an increase in the average knowledge to 64.50. In the results of the analysis of the marginal homogeneity test, it was found that education has an effect on increasing the knowledge of early childhood mothers about stunting prevention among toddlers in North Bonde Village. It is recommended for respondents to be more active in seeking information and increasing their knowledge from both the media and health workers regarding stunting prevention.
BEAD SIZE AND RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF SEBS-BASED ELASTIC BEADS

Published: June 2024

Styrene–ethylene–butylene–styrene (SEBS) is a thermoplastic elastomer that has applications in robotics and shock absorption. Although SEBS as a bulk material as well as an additive to solid composites has been extensively studied, this work focuses on developing SEBS-based beads to enhance material elasticity. SEBS bead mixtures were developed by mixing SEBS elastomer, water, and surfactant (Triton X-100) at high temperature. Stability, rheology, and microscopy of SEBS bead mixtures were studied as a function of neat SEBS concentration in SEBS elastomer, SEBS elastomer concentration, and surfactant concentration. Resulting bead mixtures were classified as creamed, homogenous and stable, or aggregated based on the mixture’s tendency to separate into layers and its ability to disperse in excess water. Microscopic studies suggest that although bead mixtures exhibit size polydispersity, the average bead size is a strong function of neat SEBS, SEBS elastomer, and surfactant concentrations. Rheological studies suggest that all the bead mixtures exhibit shear thinning behavior, and the overall viscosity of a given bead mixture is a function of both SEBS elastomer and surfactant concentration. The developed SEBS elastic beads can be used as additives to enhance the viscoelastic properties of fluid-based systems such as magnetorheological and damping fluids.
