Back-Calculation of Manning’s Roughness Coefficient by 2D Flow Simulation and Influence of In-Channel Physical Parameters in a Mountain River, Japan
Authors: Takata Hiroshi , Obata Shogo , Sato Tatsuro , Shimatani Yukihiro
Published: January 2024

This study attempts to back-calculate Manning’s roughness coefficients by repeating a two-dimensional flow simulation to fit the spatially and temporally dense river water-level data observed in Japan’s Yamatsuki River, a typical mountainous river with an average riverbed gradient of 1/50 and an average river width of 17.9 m. Furthermore, we aim to clarify the influence of the in-channel physical parameters on the coefficient of roughness obtained through the above method. In the Yamatsuki River, 16 water-level gauges were installed at intervals of about 40~80 m in the longitudinal direction in the study reach. Manning’s roughness coefficients were back-calculated by repeating two-dimensional flow simulations to match the observed water levels of a flood in 2021 (the estimated maximum flow rate is 11.5 m3/s). The back-calculated roughness coefficients approached a constant value in the range of 0.05 to 0.1 s/m1/3 as the relative water depth increased, indicating that the roughness coefficient can be considered a constant value when performing plane two-dimensional flow calculations for flooding. The roughness coefficient during flooding was found to be correlated with the slope and step height (H)-step length (L)- channel slope (S) ratios (H/L/S). An equation for predicting the roughness coefficient during flooding based on the physical parameters of the channel is also proposed.

In this study, based on these previous studies, we confirmed the correlation between the general characteristics of family caregivers of stroke patients and psychological factors. Through this, we would like to suggest a method of supporting the caregiving behavior of family caregivers. Methods : This study conducted a paper questionnaire and an online survey targeting 112 family caregivers who are currently caring for their family members. The research period was conducted for 4 weeks from September 30 to October 30, 2023. Descriptive statistics were obtained for the data collected through the questionnaire using spss 23.0 for Windows, and multiple regression analysis was performed to see the correlation between the general characteristics of family caregivers and psychological factors. Results : First, in the caregiver response scale according to general characteristics, there was a relationship between gender, disease period, and age of the family caregiver. Second, the burden of care according to general characteristics was related to gender, disease period, age of family caregiver, place of care, and personal insurance. Third, in terms of stress coping strategies according to general characteristics, there was a relationship between the age of the family caregiver, location
of care, and employment of personal care. Fourth, gender, onset period, and age of family caregiver were related to depression according to general characteristics. Conclusion : In this study, we sought to identify independent variables that can be influenced by environmental
changes in family caregivers. Support methods that enable changes in the environment, such as location of care, personal insurance, and employment of personal caregivers, were presented to those who provide family caregivers.
BEING BYZANTINE IN THE POST-1204 EMPIRE OF CONSTANTINOPLE: CONTINUITY AND CHANGE (SOCIETY AND CULTURE)
Authors: Van Tricht Filip
Published: January 2024

The impact of the Latin conquest of Constantinople has often been treated from either the perspective of the Western newcomers who established themselves in various Byzantine territories, or from the perspective of the Byzantines who left the regions that came under Latin control and who managed to establish themselves elsewhere (Nicaea, Epiros, Trebizond). In this contribution the momentous consequences of the Fourth Crusade are addressed from the perspective of those Byzantines that came under Latin rule. By zooming in on a selection of individuals and subgroups a picture is sketched of the varied Byzantine experience within the confines of the (Latin) Empire of Constantinople after 1204. Attention will be given to the various – political, religious, socio-economic and cultural – spheres of society. The focus is on the capital and the region around Constantinople, but other regions come into view as well (Thessaloniki, Adrianople, Philippopolis, Achaia/Morea, Attica, Beotia, Euobia, Crete, etc.). Chronologically this contribution is primarily limited to the period until the loss of Latin Constantinople in 1261
ЂУРАЂ И ВУКАШИН АРБАНАС ОД КАРАШЕВА: ЦРТИЦЕ О ЈЕДНОЈ ПЛЕМИЋКОЈ ПОРОДИЦИ ИЗ 15. ВЕКА С ПРОСТОРА БАНАТА
Authors: Krstić Aleksandar
Published: January 2024

The paper deals with the noble Arbanas family (Hungarian: Orbonász) of Carașova, whose members performed important administrative and military duties in the southern border areas of Hungary during the 15th century. The scarce source material allows us to follow only the basic outlines of their activities. The most prominent members of this family and the founders of its two branches were the brothers George and Vukašin Arbanas. In 1437, George kept the royal castle of Carașova in present-day Romanian Banat (Hungarian: Krassófő, Serbian: Karaševo) as an honour, which proves that he already had a significant position in the borderline Caraș (Krassó) County at that time. In the Hungarian and Romanian historiography, it is considered that the brothers originate from a Serbian noble family from the territory of Albania. It is interesting that two Serbian annals mention a certain Vukašin Zuprović as a prominent participant in the Hungarian campaign against the Ottomans in Serbia in 1437. The civil war in Hungary after the death of King Albert (1439) favoured the further rise of the Arbanas brothers. As a supporter of King Wladislas I and John Hunyadi, George reached the position of the count of Timiş (Temes) in 1441–1442. Vukašin was given a significant role in the management of Timiş County, as some kind of his brother’s representative. The offspring of George and Vukašin built their careers on the southern border of Hungary during the reign of Matthias Corvinus. In the late 1480s, George the Younger performed the duty of the captain or the ban of Belgrade, while Vukašin’s son Peter was the captain of the Haram castle on the Danube in Caraș County (1489).

The required functional and mechanical properties are necessary for design the polymer compositions with dispersed fillers. The mechanical properties of such polymer composition can be changed by encapsulated filler particles shell thickness varying. The paper shows that the presence of polylactide polymer shell and its thickness on the surfaces of copper (I) oxide particles significantly affect the strength of polymer composite material based on ED-20 epoxy resin. That is due to the interaction between encapsulated particles and the matrix polymer, in contrast to noncapsulated particles. In addition, a change in particle size due to increasing shell thickness also affects the strength properties of the composition. It is shown that the elastic modulus of the filled epoxy composite does not depend on the shell thickness on the particle surfaces.

Architectural Feud! The Link Between Adhocism, Collage City, and the Radical Picturesque
Authors:   Oklahoma State University, Macken Jared
Published: January 2024

This paper explores a disciplinary feud between theoretical figures of 20th century architectural discourse, and discovers an overlooked and forgotten architectural discourse on the city. The participants of the feud included Nathan Silver and Charles Jencks (authors of Adhocism) on one side of the fight, Colin Rowe and Fred Koetter (authors of “Collage City”) on the other, and Reyner Banham who entered the fray in the middle as a mediator. While the feud was quite stinging—it consisted of an accusation of plagiarism from Nathan Silver—it was completely forgotten. This was because the fight occurred in the letters to the editor section of Architectural Review in 1975, with each jab and blow delayed across three different editions. Yet it is worth looking at since it links these two unexpectedly comparable projects—namely Adhocism and Collage City—with a very unlikely yet similar third project brought into the discussion by Reyner Banham. This third project was Hubert de Cronin Hastings’s theory he described as a Radical Picturesque which he details as an architectural manifesto for designing and reconstructing the post war English city. Radical Picturesque was described in Hastings’s article “Townscape” and published in Architectural Review in 1949. The article’s namesake and surface-level ideas lead to Gordon Cullen’s book The Concise Townscape (which was indeed inspired by Hastings’s original article), but it can be argued that the original text coupled with Banham’s link to Adhocism and “Collage City,” was not fully nor sufficiently realized in Cullen’s book or subsequent iterations of the Townscape movement. These three theories for the design of the city, when looked at together, has the potential to shed new light on 20th century architectural discourse on the city. This paper seeks to illuminate the original ideas that were a part of the Radical Picturesque in order to reinsert an architectural project on the city that was lost to dominant postwar architectural discourse.
ANALYSIS ON PATH OPTIMIZATION OF AGRICULTURAL HANDLING ROBOTS BASED ON ANT COLONY-IMPROVED ARTIFICIAL POTENTIAL FIELD METHOD
Authors: CHU Hexia
Published: January 2024

Aiming at the problems of low efficiency and slow function convergence of the ant colony algorithm in path planning of agricultural transport robots, a fusion algorithm combined with the artificial potential field method was proposed. Firstly, the function of each parameter was analyzed according to the mathematical model of the traditional ant colony algorithm, followed by the simulation analysis of the optimal parameters through grid map modeling in MATLAB and data recording. Secondly, the deficiency of the classical artificial potential field method in agriculture, i.e., it could not arrive at the endpoint or realize local locking, was improved by introducing the intermediate point and the relative distance of the target. Finally, the features of the two algorithms were combined and the improved artificial potential field method was integrated with the traditional ant colony algorithm so that the improved artificial potential field method could play a dominant role in the initial path planning stage of agricultural transport robots while the ant colony algorithm exerted the main effect in the later stage with the increase in the pheromone concentration. It was verified through simulation analysis, it was verified that the fusion algorithm of ant colony algorithm and improved artificial potential field method outperforms traditional ant colony algorithm in terms of farthest path, optimal path, running time, and iteration number.

Surface oxide ion conduction of BaCe0.5Pr0.3Y0.2O3−δ
thin film with complex mixed valence states
Authors: Notake Go , Kadowaki Takemasa , Tani Minami , Higuchi Tohru
Published: January 2024

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), which operate in the medium temperature range from 300 °C to 500 °C, are effective in shortening startup time and reducing fuel gas. In order to realize a practical electrolyte with high oxide ion conductivity, we have investigated the ionic conductivity of c-axis oriented BaCe0.5Pr0.3Y0.2O3−δ
(BCPY) thin films with complex mixed valence states prepared on Al2O3 (0001) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering. The amount of oxygen vacancies on the surface in the as-deposited BCPY thin film was evaluated to be ∼6.7% by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and defect chemical analysis. The as-deposited film exhibited relatively high ionic conductivity (σT) of more than 10−1 S·K cm−1 and activation energy (E
A) of ∼0.57 eV in the medium temperature range by thermal activation process on the surface. The energy separation between the top of the VB and the Fermi level was much larger than E
A, indicating that the BCPY thin film is a pure oxide ion conductor without the contribution of electron or hole carriers. These results indicate that the c-axis oriented BCPY thin film can be applied to electrolyte of SOFC operating in the medium temperature range.
Study and fabrication of rain triboelectric nanogenerator based on laser-induced graphene interdigital electrode
Authors: Huang Yun-Tung , Huang Cheng-Chun , Su Ching-Yuan , Tsai Yao-Chuan
Published: January 2024

In this work, a rain triboelectric nanogenerator (R-TENG) based on a laser-induced graphene (LIG) interdigital electrode was developed to harvest rain energy. The R-TENG comprises a LIG interdigital electrode on a polymer substrate with a hydrophobic Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) layer as a protective layer. When raindrops fall onto the surface of the PDMS layer and move between two adjacent interdigital electrodes, the accumulated charges move back and forth, resulting in the generation of alternating current. The LIG pattern design and the energy collection efficiency were studied by altering the production parameters of the LIG electrode and measuring the droplet diameter on the PDMS surface. A R-TENG with an electrode width of 3 mm produces a laser power of 2.1 W, and an output voltage of 2.46 V is generated. The R-TENG could be applied as an additional energy source to harvest rain energy for agricultural IoT sensors.

Published: January 2024

The combined stock assessment approach to estimate and forecast the biomass and fisheries of the gobies population in Azov Sea are presented. Biomass stock assessment during the period 2015–2022 performed based on Pella-Tomlinson surplus production model within aprior parametrization by JABBA package. In terms of change the control parameter (from fisheries to environmental conditions) biomass forecasting done by main biological process modelling: spawning process by Ricker’s stock-recruitment model, instant natural mortality by Charnov approximation method, population annual weight gain by relative weight assumption. The current state of gobies stock biomass in Azov Sea during 2022 is depleted, estimated on level of B2022 = 12,5 ths. t., lower that limit reference point value Blim = 14,9 ths. t. Such depleted stock status can be just partial explained by overfishing during the 2016–2019. During the forecast period, 2023–2024, there is no scenarios exists to gobies population recovery, even in total fishery prohibition.
Zonal distribution of the stock of blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) in the North-East Atlantic in 2010–2020
Authors: Pronyuk A. A.
Published: January 2024

In the management of the blue whiting fishery, the problem of exceeding the scientifically justified catch remains due to the lack of an agreement on national shares between Coastal States. In order to obtain additional data necessary to reach an agreement, a NEAFC Working Group was established by the Coastal States to form a report on the zonal distribution of the reserve. Until March 2022, a Russian specialist took part in the work of the group. The article analyzes the main results of the distribution of both international catches of blue whiting and biomass of the stock in accordance with the data of the international survey, according to the NEA economic, fishing zones and international waters for the period 2010–2020 was conducted. It was found out that during this period the largest part of the blue whiting of the stock was distributed in the fishing zone of the Faroe Islands, exclusive economic zones of the EU, Great Britain and economic zone of the Norway. The economic zones of Ireland (EU) and Great Britain were the main «holders» of the spawning stock with the most active fishing in the spring, while the Faroese fishing zone is the most significant zone through which the main migrations of a significant part of the stock pass throughout the year. The waters of the Norwegian economic zone were the main habitat of immature juveniles and feeding fish, to a somewhat lesser extent this applied to the waters of the Iceland economic zone. The results of this work can be used as a basis for dividing the total available catch of the blue whiting into national shares and can accelerate the achievement of an agreement between the Coastal States.

Published: January 2024

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) merupakan protein fase akut yang terdapat dalam serum normal dalam jumlah yang sangat sedikit. Ada banyak faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi kadar CRP termasuk usia, jenis kelamin dan status merokok. Bertambahnya usia memungkinkan munculnya beberapa kelompok penyakit rematik. Salah satu golongan rematik yang sering menyertai lansia adalah Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Lansia adalah usia yang memiliki peluang lebih besar untuk mengalami autoimun. Penderita RA pada lansia di seluruh dunia telah mencapai 355 juta orang, artinya 1 dari 6 lansia di dunia menderita rematik. Respon imun manusia yang diakibatkan bergantung pada limfosit, dimana inflamasi yang sistemik secara signifikan menekan imunitas seluler. Berdasarkan Profil Kesehatan Jawa Tengah (2019) menunjukkan bahwa jumlah lansia di Kabupaten Cilacap 174.143 jiwa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis jumlah limfosit sebagai indikator respon imunitas pada lansia terhadap kadar CRP, RF. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif kualitatif. Dari hasil penelitian terhadap 30 sampel pada warga RW 03 Kelurahan Donan Cilacap diperoleh hasil pemeriksaan kadar CRP dan RF secara kualitatif menunjukan hasil normal (100%), dan hasil jumlah limfosit diperoleh sejumlah 12 sampel menunjukkan hasil rendah.

This study aims to determine the effect of biodiesel fuel from dimethyl ester on four-stroke stationary diesel engines' performance and exhaust emissions. Tests were carried out using B10 and B30 fuels with engine speed variations and load variations without modifying the engine. The results showed that the torque, power, and thermal efficiency tended to decrease when using B10 and B30. In addition, the specific fuel consumption has increased when the engine uses B10 and B30. But exhaust emissions of CO and unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) decreased NOx and increased CO2 when the engine uses B10 and B30. This research also obtains the correlations and regression equations involving engine performance parameters.

Published: January 2024

Considering the socioeconomic significance of the Indus Basin, the effect of climate change on its water resources is a crucial concern. This study explores the effects of changing climate on the basin, looking at hydrological fluctuations and possible dangers to water supply. With its intricate hydrographic system, the Indus Basin faces difficulties like changing precipitation patterns, retreating glaciers, and an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events. The delicate balance of water supplies, which is essential for agriculture and a significant driver of the region's economy, is at risk due to these changes. The study highlights the need for adaptive measures by examining the complex effects on infrastructure, food security, and livelihoods. This paper seeks to provide important insights into the complex relationship between climate change and water resources in the Indus Basin, as well as the gaps in the Indus Water Treaty (IWT) under Homer Dixon's Scarcity Model.

Authors: Bakos Andrew , O’Brien Danny , Gowthorp Lisa
Published: January 2024

This research analyzed the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games (GC2018) as a field configuring event (FCE). The research develops understanding around the key actors, processes, and products of field configuration prompted in the host community of a major event. A qualitative single
case study research design was used that relied on interview data, participant observations, and organizational documents. Findings demonstrated how boundary work by GC2018 field-level governance actors yielded a focus on achieving legacy outcomes for a select few host community stakeholders.
This study adds new insight on the persistence of “the legacy rhetoric” in event management. Recognition of the exclusionary nature of boundary work associated with field governance around major events emerged as a key prerequisite for shifting thinking beyond the legacy rhetoric
and towards a more holistic leveraging perspective.

Authors: Davies Karen , Thatcher Christina , Haven-Tang Claire , Packer Rhiannon A.J. , Thomas Andrew T.
Published: January 2024

Limited research has been conducted on the benefits of utilizing festival spaces for methodologies involving storytelling and narrative inquiry for use in other (related) areas of investigation (e.g., tourism). This article introduces a method, “story-mapping,” for the collection
of locals’ stories during a combined arts festival. The intention was to capture place-focused data from community stakeholders from the case study destination, Bridgend County Borough, South Wales. Locals were encouraged to tell stories about the area, including specific grassroots
elements using a map as a visual prompt. The process was designed to empower and involve the local community in defining and sharing a “sense of place” as part of a paradigm shift towards regenerative tourism. Utilizing “story-mapping” in the festival space proved effective
but also presented some challenges. The article evaluates the method through the lens of narrative inquiry and makes recommendations for future researchers wishing to utilize this approach.
