The Paradigm of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) with the concept of "Rahmatan Lil Alamin" (mercy to the entire universe) has been a subject of debate and a primary focus from various perspectives. In this view, IRE is seen as a means to understand, interpret, and implement Islamic teachings in a broader and more inclusive context. Various perspectives that emerge encompass aspects such as education, social, and humanitarian concerns. In terms of education, IRE with the "Rahmatan Lil Alamin" paradigm emphasizes the importance of educating individuals with a profound understanding of Islam while also promoting tolerance, mutual understanding, and interfaith cooperation in a pluralistic society. From a social perspective, IRE with this paradigm serves as a tool to promote peace, harmony, and equality in a culturally and religiously diverse society. Moreover, from a humanitarian perspective, "Rahmatan Lil Alamin" emphasizes humanitarian values, justice, and a deep understanding of human rights. Therefore, the IRE paradigm of "Rahmatan Lil Alamin" makes a significant contribution to efforts to create an inclusive, tolerant, and collectively welfare-oriented society.

The results of the North Caucasus Research Institute of Mining and Foothill Agriculture, a branch of the Federal State Budgetary Institution of Science of the Federal Center Vladikavkaz Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, are presented. The possibilities of selecting breeding samples with high winter hardiness, feed and seed productivity have been studied, and the analysis of the most productive samples by symbiotic productivity has been carried out. The object of research was various varieties of alfalfa of domestic and foreign breeding. A variety of clover, Kevsala, served as a control. During statistical data processing, the best samples were compared with the standard. Alfalfa varieties were also evaluated according to a set of economically valuable characteristics in order to identify hay-pasture-type varieties. The plants were sown in a wide order and individually in a row. The direct dependence of alfalfa seed formation on weather conditions is noted. On plants of the studied alfalfa varieties, the winter hardiness index is higher than the Manic standard variety (88%), the varieties Vega 87, Pasture 88, Rostovskaya 60, Uralochka, Sarga, Flora are characterized. Low level of winter hardiness (up to 80%) in varieties: Sparta, Tianshan, Peruvianskaya, Semirechenskaya, Cheshminskaya 131, Artemis, Virini, Yeruslanka. The highest rates of contamination were observed in the Kotlasky local variety – 64.9%. Also, in solving the problem of feed protein, the biological capabilities of perennial legumes are of great importance, the cultivation of which allows you to reduce the cost of nitrogen fertilizers, while obtaining high yields of good quality. Alfalfa crops annually accumulate about 150 kg/ha of nitrogen in the process of symbiosis. As shown by the analysis of the effectiveness of legume-rhizobial symbiosis, the number of active nodules exceeded the number of inactive ones in both the first and second years of life. On average, the number of active nodules on alfalfa roots in the first year of use was 160-230 pcs. /rast., in the second year of life 210-270 pcs./rast.

The article presents data on the comparative characteristics of the drugs seregon and sulfagon in rabbit breeding. The purpose of the study was to establish the effectiveness of the drugs "SERGON" and "Surfagon". The animals were kept in individual cages. Studies were conducted on 60 female and 30 male rabbits of the Soviet Chinchilla breed, all animals were sexually mature, the females had not previously given birth. At 0-21 days - randomization of animals and the formation of groups, taking blood for a general blood test (UAC) and a biochemical blood test (background). Day 1 - intramuscular administration: Control (K) – 3 ml of saline solution intramuscularly; experimental group 1 (Op.1) - T-1 at a dose of 50 IU per head to 20 females, experimental group 2 (Op.2) - T-2 at a dose of 25mcg per head. Day 2 - 5 - receiving sperm from 30 males and preparing it for fertilization, identifying sexual hunting by morphological signs, artificial insemination of 60 females. Day 26 - conducting an ultrasound examination to establish sucrolity. Day 27-29 - UAC and biochemical blood analysis. Euthanasia of 50% of animals from each group was carried out on the 29th day of pregnancy with the help of an overdose of a combination of xyl and zoletil drugs, followed by cutting of the main vessels. Day 30-35 - childbirth, counting of cubs. Up to 55 days - monitoring the development of offspring. The greatest yield of offspring was observed in the group with the use of Surfagon, in some rabbits the yield reached up to 12 heads, however, the safety in the control group and Op.1 was 100%, whereas in Op.2 5 baby rabbits died (4.4%). The death of the baby rabbits was caused by insufficient milk in the females. Based on the conducted research, the effectiveness of the drugs SERGON and SURFAGON used for superovulation of rabbits has been proven, in the absence of a negative effect on the general condition of animals. Based on the evaluation of embryos and offspring, it was found that the effectiveness of the drug SURFAGON is higher than the drug SERGON.

Published: November 2024

The recent advancements in the area of Large language models (LLMs) has opened horizons for conversational assistant-based intelligent models capable of interpreting images, and providing textual response, also known as Visual language models (VLMs). These models can assist equipment operators and maintenance technicians in the complex Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) tasks such as diagnostics of faults, root cause analysis and repair recommendation. Significant open source contributions in the area of VLMs have been made. However, models trained on general data fail to perform well in complex tasks in specialized domains such as diagnostics and repair of industrial equipment. Therefore, in this paper we discuss our work on development of Diagnostics-LLaVA, a VLM suitable for interpreting images of specific industrial equipment and provide better response than existing open source models in PHM tasks such as fault diagnostics and repair recommendation. We introduce Diagnostics-LLaVA based on the architecture of LLaVA, and created one instance of the Diagnostics-LLaVA for the automotive repair domain, referred to as Automotive-LLaVA. We demonstrate that our proposed Automotive-LLaVA model performs better than the state-of-the-art open source visual language models such as mPlugOWL and LLaVA in both qualitative and quantitative experiments.
Multidisciplinary Framework for Vibration-Based Gear Fault Diagnosis Using Experiments, Modeling, and Machine Learning
Authors: Bachar Lior , Bortman Jacob
Published: November 2024

Vibration-based gear diagnosis is crucial for ensuring the reliability of rotating machinery, making the monitoring of gear health essential for preventing costly downtime and optimizing performance. This study proposes a multidisciplinary framework to enhance gear diagnosis, that aligns with the new era of digital twins by integrating experiments, dynamic modeling, physical preprocessing, and machine learning. Within this framework, we focus on three core procedures: domain adaptation to reduce discrepancies between measured data and synthetic data generated by dynamic models; physical preprocessing, grounded in in-depth investigations dictating signal processing and feature engineering techniques; and learning algorithms, encompassing the process of training AI-based models. We demonstrate this framework through a comprehensive case study of localized tooth fault diagnosis, using controlled-degradation tests and realistic simulations. First, we detect faults using unsupervised learning algorithms; then, we use zero-shot-learning for classifying between localized and distributed faults; finally, we adopt a one-shot-learning strategy for severity estimation. Above all, this hybrid framework bridges the gaps between physical-based and AI-based approaches by combining physical knowledge and advanced algorithmics with machine learning. This contributes to the PHM field by offering valuable insights into integrating different aspects of research, thereby enhancing performance in gear diagnosis tasks.

Authors: Han Peihua , Liang Qin , Vanem Erik , Knutsen Knut Erik , Zhang Houxiang
Published: November 2024

This paper presents a data-driven approach for assessing the health of helicopter turbine engines, developed for the PHM North America 2024 Conference Data Challenge. The task involves both regression and classification to estimate the torque margin and classify engine health as either nominal or faulty. To quantify the reliability of predictions, probabilistic outputs are generated. We employ a two-stage model where the predicted torque margin serves as an input feature for health classification. For probabilistic torque margin estimation, we introduce an empirical error sampling method to generate torque margin samples, followed by a rule-based distribution selection scheme to evaluate the resulting distributions. For fault classification, logistic regression is used to provide confidence estimates, and we incorporate a score-optimized loss function during training to mitigate penalties for false negatives. Our approach demonstrates strong generalization to unseen assets, ranking 2nd in the competition with a score of 0.94, demonstrating its effectiveness in predicting health conditions and uncertainty for more informed helicopter engine management.

Authors: Gaikwad Shraddha , Asokan Dinesh , Mall Anjali , Sharma Suchitra , Pardeshi Geeta
Published: November 2024

Introduction: Fast food consumption is a signicant public health concern among nursing students, who are future healthcare providers. Despite
their awareness of the health risks, including obesity and cardiovascular diseases, many nursing students continue to exhibit unhealthy eating
behaviours. This study aims to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to fast-food consumption among nursing students to identify
gaps and inform targeted interventions. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January to June 2023 among 201 nursing
students at a tertiary-level hospital in Mumbai, India. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire via Google Forms, assessing
demographic characteristics and knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to fast-food consumption. Data were analyzed using R software,
employing descriptive statistics, and chi-square tests to identify associations. Results:Ahigh prevalence of fast-food consumption was found, with
181 students (90.0%) regularly consuming fast food. Female students (83 of 107, 77.6%) demonstrated signicantly better knowledge about the
health impacts of fast food compared to male students (46 of 74, 62.2%; p = 0.037). Students living at home showed better knowledge (43 of 56,
76.8%; p < 0.01) and attitudes (74 of 98, 75.5%; p < 0.01) towards healthy eating compared to those in hostels. Differences were also noted across
academic years, with a decline in health-conscious behaviours as students progressed (p < 0.01). Conclusion: The study reveals a high prevalence
of fast-food consumption among nursing students, with notable differences in knowledge, attitudes, and practices based on gender, residence type,
and academic year. Integrating nutrition education into the nursing curriculum and providing healthier food options on campus are recommended
to promote healthier eating habits among students.
Process and Low-Frequency Noise Variability Estimation of Tunable Piezoresistive Sensing Performance of Junctionless Nanowire FETs
Authors: Kumar Nitish , Gupta Ankur , Singh Pushpapraj
Published: November 2024

In this paper, a tunable piezoresistive pressure sensor is designed and
developed using junctionless nanowire (JL-NW) gate-all-around (GAA)
field-effect transistors (FETs) integrated into a circular diaphragm.
The measured results show that the piezoresistive sensitivity is
improved by ~4 times in the subthreshold (SS) regime
(depletion regime) compared to the ON-state (ION) condition (partial
depletion regime). This improvement is achieved by reducing the channel
conductivity with a low gate bias below the threshold voltage (VTH).
Piezoresistivity variability is observed to be ~20% in
the SS regime and ~10% in the ION conditions due to a
diameter variation of ~±4 nm in the nanowires during a
single fabrication run. The symmetric thin diameter of nanowires also
shows a higher gauge factor compared to the asymmetric thickness of
nanowires. This variability estimation suggests that controlling
fabrication process variations is crucial for developing stable sensing
elements for nanoelectromechanical (NEMS) sensors in advanced technology
nodes. Additionally, low-frequency noise (LFN) is measured to estimate
the minimum detectable strain (MDS) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
These measurements indicate that the JL-NW GAA FET offers higher
resolution and better performance as a sensing element compared to the
inversion mode NW GAA FET in advanced technology nodes. In addition to
offering better reliability and sensing resolution, it is also much
easier to integrate with advanced CMOS technologies.

Authors: Ranjbar Azam , Ramezanian Asghar , Niakousari Mehrdad , Shekarforoush Shahram
Published: November 2024

Pomegranate arils pose a significant challenge when it comes to preserving their nutritional value and preventing microbial contamination. This study aimed to explore the impact of thymol fumigation and active modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on enzymatic activity and microbial contamination prevention in pomegranate arils. The results indicated that arils stored in a high O2 atmosphere (HO2A) with thymol had notably different catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) activity levels compared to other treatments. These arils exhibited the highest CAT activity and the lowest POD activity. The highest phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity was observed in arils stored in HO2A with thymol, although it was not significantly different from those stored in a high CO2 atmosphere (HCO2A) with thymol (P<0.05). Arils stored in a low oxygen atmosphere (LO2A) and HCO2A with thymol showed the highest polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity levels, while arils in HO2A with thymol had the lowest. The HO2A with thymol treatment resulted in the lowest presence of psychrophilic bacteria, although it was not significantly different from arils stored in LO2A with thymol (P<0.01). Based on cluster analysis results, HO2A with thymol, LO2A with thymol, and HCO2A with thymol could be considered the most effective treatments for extending the storage life of packaged pomegranate arils.

A Study on the Public Finance Illegal Profit Recovery System
Authors:   Korea Anti-Corruption Law Association, Kim Nam Wook
Published: November 2024

The Public Finance Recovery Act was enacted in April 2019 in addition to the disciplinary surcharge system for public officials under the National Public Officials Act and the Local Public Officials Act as subsidies, R&D expenses, allowances, etc. of the state, local governments, and public organizations continue to make false claims and excessive claims. In order to prohibit public financial fraudulent claims and to recover the full amount of fraudulent income, which is unearned income, a sanction surcharge of up to five times is imposed and recovered in consideration of the intention and habitability of fraudulent claims.
In this paper, after examining the concept, scope, and legal nature of public finance fraud recovery, we examine the Improper Payment lnfonnation Act of 2002, the False Claims Act, the Federal Improper Payments Coordination Act of 2015, and the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 in the United States, and the Subsidy Appropriation Act of Japan to seek implications for Korea In addition, we examine legal issues related to the systematization of pre- and post-systems to reduce fraudulent profits in public finance payments, securing the effectiveness of the whistleblowing system for public finance subsidy recovery, and activating the anonymous proxy reporting system, and suggest improvement measures to enhance the effectiveness of the Public Finance Recovery Act.
Before recovering the illicit profits of public finance payments, relevant administrative agencies and public institutions should actively operate programs to strengthen the risk assessment and eligibility review of illicit payments, and after disbursing public finance support funds, they should strictly conduct an audit by an external auditor independent of the administrative agency and public institution to prevent illicit receipt of public finance support funds, and the results of the audit should be posted on the website of the relevant administrative agency to enhance transparency. In addition, in order to eradicate the negative organizational culture toward whistleblowers and the secret receipt of public finance support funds in Korea, whistleblowers should be allowed to file a U.S.-style qui tarn lawsuit only in cases where they make false claims to administrative agencies or public institutions. However, if the relevant administrative agency or public institution allows intervention in the lawsuit and recovers the illicit profits of public finance funds, they should be compensated 35% of the recovered amount to the whistleblower. Given the nature of fraudulent receipt of public financial support funds, the regional National Human Rights Commission's anonymous proxy reporting advisory group should be expanded in a balanced manner to ensure that the anonymous proxy reporting system is activated, and the anonymity of internal reporters should be guaranteed.

Published: November 2024

This study examines the commercialization of research conducted by government-funded science and technology research institutes (hereinafter referred to as 'science and technology research institutes') and the associated legal frameworks for preventing conflicts of interest. The aim is to analyze the perceptions within the research community and propose legal improvements. Science and technology research institutes are tasked with not only conducting scientific research but also promoting technology transfer and commercialization for the dissemination and utilization of research outcomes. However, this process may involve personal interests or commercial activities, which can lead to conflicts of interest. Notably, since the implementation of the Act on the Prevention of Conflict of Interest in 2022, issues related to technology transfer and commercialization have been raised, necessitating a thorough review.
The perception survey conducted within the research community revealed differences in views on research commercialization between science and technology research institutes and other organizations, with the potential for conflict of interest concerns posing a more significant barrier in the former. Additionally, research-oriented companies and researcher-founded startups reported experiencing limitations in collaboration due to conflict of interest concerns.
The proposed legal improvements include: first, the establishment of explicit provisions related to researcher entrepreneurship within the Act on the Establishment, Operation and Fostering of Government-Funded Science and Technology Research Institutes to provide a clear legal basis for proactive efforts; second, a reconsideration of the application of the Act on the Prevention of Conflict of Interest to science and technology research institutes, with the consideration of exceptions or exclusions reflecting the unique nature of research and development; and third, the suggestion to utilize existing laws, such as the National Research and Development Innovation Act, to establish autonomous conflict of interest management systems within these institutes. These measures aim to strike a balance between the public responsibilities of research institutions and the social utilization of research outcomes, ensuring that researchers can actively commercialize their research while fulfilling their ethical responsibilities.

RESUMO
Introdução: A sífilis materna, sem tratamento, pode causar má-formação do feto, aborto espontâneo e morte fetal mas últimos cinco anos as regiões Norte e Sudeste do Brasil houve redução no número de casos dessa infecção. Objetivo: Descrever o perfil epidemiológico dos casos de sífilis congênita no Amazonas, correspondente aos anos de 2019 a 2023. Metodologia: Tratou-se de um levantamento de informações secundarias, já publicadas, existentes em Sites oficiais do Ministério da Saúde (SINAN/NET). Resultados: No período, a região Norte do Brasil registrou 57.990 casos de sífilis, considerando o gênero masculino e feminino em todas as idades, deste montante, 2.418 casos (4,2%) foi somente Sífilis congênita. Mesmo havendo um decréscimo no aparecimento geral de casos na região Norte, nos últimos 4 anos houve um crescimento exponencial de casos no Pará (52,8%) e o Amazonas com registrou 17% desses casos onde a faixa etária mais prevalente de mulheres com sífilis na gravidez foi de 20 a 29 anos e a maioria (56,2%) tinha o ensino médio completo e 37% eram mulheres consideradas de cor parda. Conclusão: O quadro de reemergência da sífilis congênita, quando acontece, preterivelmente deve ser analisado no contexto de desigualdades e vulnerabilidade em saúde, como forma de garantir ações de promoção, proteção e prevenção à saúde das mães.

Among the various types of injuries that affect the maxillofacial region, perforating objects can result in doubtful prognosis due to the possibility of reaching vessels, nerves, and other key structures, causing hemorrhages, airway obstruction, brain damage and even death. Foreign bodies in the orbital cavity are usually divided into two categories: inorganic and organic. This report intends to present an atypical case of wooden foreign body remotion from the intraorbital area which was performed surgically in a Public Hospital Center in Sergipe, Brazil. Facial injuries should be evaluated with a rigid protocol to provide quality healthcare, thus minimizing problems during the management of the cases. Imaging examinations should not be neglected, so that careful evaluation of the extent of the lesions and presence of foreign objects can be performed. Although CT is regarded as the gold standard, MRI scans are superior to CT in the diagnosis of small pieces of wood. Surgery is the preferred treatment, in which the surgeons should carefully remove all foreign bodies and residual fragments will result in orbital infection. Postoperative sinus drainage and systemic antibiotic treatments are necessary.
O FEMINISMO NA SOCIEDADE CONTEMPORÂNEA PELAS LENTES DO FILME “EU NÃO SOU UM HOMEM FÁCIL”
Authors: Morbach Aline Almira , Seraglio Maruana Kássia Tischer
Published: November 2024

Dirigido por Eleonore Pourriat, o filme “Eu não sou um homem fácil” critica o machismo intrínseco na sociedade de forma divertida e leve, usando o gênero comédia, e cumprindo seu objetivo central de mostrar a perspectiva feminista sobre a dominação sexista da sociedade. O filme trata de questões como: papéis do homem e da mulher na sociedade; desigualdade no ambiente profissional; objetivação do corpo feminino; e supremacia masculina na família e na sociedade; entre outros. Ao compreendermos que as representações audiovisuais contribuem para reflexões e investigações no campo das ciências humanas e, mais do que isso, elas estão focadas em territórios específicos, expandindo compreensões e interpretações de mundo, temos como objetivo principal deste estudo analisar como as mulheres francesas de classe média na sociedade contemporânea são retratadas no personagem Damien no filme “Eu não sou um homem fácil”. Esta pesquisa é norteada pela pergunta: como as mulheres francesas de classe média da sociedade contemporânea são representadas no personagem de Damien no filme “Eu não sou um homem fácil”? Para desenvolver essa análise, primeiramente foram realizadas discussões teóricas na seção “breves apontamentos teóricos”, das quais destacamos questões relacionadas à pós-modernidade e ao feminismo. Em seguida, em “movimentos de análise”, são apresentadas a sinopse do filme francês e as duas cenas que servem de corpus de análise. Além disso, em “implicações pedagógicas” é abordada a importância do cinema como ferramenta educativa. Concluiu-se, por meio das análises e a partir da perspectiva do filme, que as mulheres francesas de classe média na sociedade contemporânea lidam com questões relacionadas à objetificação do corpo feminino, à subestimação no ambiente profissional, além do preconceito e da desigualdade.
O CINEMA, O FÍLMICO E O CINEMÁTICO: REFLEXÕES E POSSIBILIDADES PARA A GEOGRAFIA
Authors: Fioravante Karina Eugenia
Published: November 2024

Ao longo das últimas três décadas, o número de trabalhos que buscam investigar a correlação entre a geografia, o cinema e suas imagens em movimento cresceu exponencialmente. O objetivo dessa reflexão é trazer considerações acerca das possibilidades de investigação que envolvem esses campos. Sendo assim, começa-se com uma tentativa de diferenciação entre os termos “Geografia do Cinema”, “Geografia Fílmica” e “Geografia Cinemática” apontando que apresentam especificidades que devem ser levadas em consideração na criação de problemáticas geográficas. Em um segundo momento, foca-se na discussão de caminhos temáticas que já foram desenvolvidos pelos pesquisadores e que podem, sem dúvida, ser aprofundados.
БИТВА ЗА КАВКАЗ: МОЗДОКО-МАЛГОБЕКСКАЯ ОБОРОНИТЕЛЬНАЯ ОПЕРАЦИЯ
Authors: Бадаева Л.А.
Published: November 2024

Бои на Главном Кавказском хребте являлись одним из важных этапов Великой Отечественной Войны. Немцы рвались к нефтяным источникам, от этого зависел итог войны. Кавказ должен был стать по замыслу гитлеровцев той территорией, где развернутся их основные вооруженные силы, нацеленные на захват Европы и Ближнего Востока. Главный Кавказский хребет связывал именно эти земли. Вот потому так важно было Красной Армии удержать позиции и измотать противника. Это позволило перегруппировать силы и начать общее контрнаступление в войне. Малгобек, Новороссийск, Туапсе, Майкоп, Грозный – это города, ставшие навечно символом воинской доблести. Советские воины показали примеры доблести и героизма. Не отставали от них и рабочие Грозного, бесперебойно поставлявшие фронту все необходимое: ГСМ, снаряды, патроны, обмундирование. Планам Гитлера не суждено было сбыться.

В статье рассматривается период ожесточенных боев битвы за Кавказ, когда немецко-фашистские захватчики прорывались к нефтеносным районам Кавказа и вплотную подошли к границам Дагестана. Предпринята попытка показать вклад народов многонационального, многоконфессионального Дагестана в Великую Победу советского народа в Великой Отечественной войне, осветить трудовой энтузиазм дагестанцев в выпуске продукции оборонного значения для вооруженных сил страны.
Освещается самоотверженный титанический труд народов Дагестана, в ходе выполнения заказав оборонного значения военного времени. Только «за 10 месяцев 1942 г. было изготовлено для фронта более 3,5 тыс. 85-мм зенитных гранат, 115 тыс. 88-мм чугунных мин, 460 тыс. 45-мм снарядов, 335 тыс. гранат РГД–33, более 100 тыс. 85-мм зенитных гранат, 35 тыс. 76-мм снарядов других боеприпасов. В сентябре 1942 г. был сформирован Дагестанский добровольческий кавалерийский эскадрон под командование героя гражданской войны К. Караева, который начал свой боевой путь с Модзока и дошел до Берлина. Летом 1942 г в период тяжелых битв за Кавказ 15 тысяч дагестанцев добровольцами ушли на фронт, 24 тысяч дагестанцев вступили в отряды народного ополчения. Народы Дагестана в Великой Отечественной войне в период битвы за Кавказ внесли свой весомый вклад героической борьбой и самоотверженным трудом в Великую Победу над фашистской Германией.
