Optimizing Long-Distance Electric Vehicle Routes Based on Passenger Satisfaction Model
Authors: Alatiyyah Mohammed
Published: December 2024

This study presents a novel approach to optimizing long-distance electric vehicle (EV) routes by prioritizing passenger happiness—a vital yet often overlooked aspect in route planning for sustainable transportation. Traditional EV route optimization models focus primarily on technical considerations such as energy efficiency, charging station availability, and minimizing travel time, yet they rarely account for the human-centric factors that shape travel satisfaction. This research introduces a comprehensive framework that integrates qualitative aspects of the travel experience, including scenic route preferences, comfort during travel, and enriching activities at charging stops. The employed methodology combines data analytics and psychological assessment to develop an EV route optimization model that aligns technical efficiency with passenger well-being. Computational experiments conducted across varied travel scenarios reveal that routes optimized for passenger happiness not only enhance the overall travel experience but also demonstrate potential to encourage broader EV adoption for long-distance journeys. The results underscore the importance of balancing technical efficiency with human-centric factors in EV route planning and highlight critical areas for infrastructure improvements, such as the strategic placement of high-power charging stations.

Published: December 2024

This study aims to determine the type of vehicle with the lowest fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions by comparing spark ignition commercial vehicles against hybrid vehicles. The data were obtained through the OBD Link MX+ interface under traffic conditions in the Metropolitan District of Quito to determine the consumption and emissions delivered by each studied vehicle. Measurements were made while driving on two high-traffic routes during peak hours, with a duration of 2 to 3 h of stalling, and the engine fuel consumption parameters of each vehicle were obtained using 85 octane gasoline. Five measurements were generated per route and for each vehicle tested to reduce uncertainty and strengthen the prediction model with a factor of less than 10%. Statistical analysis was implemented to obtain a numerical model that allowed to analyse the estimate of the variation in fuel economy in each vehicle. The numerical model compared the values of fuel consumption measured with those calculated on all the routes with the highest traffic, finally indicating which vehicle with the smallest cylinder capacity is optimal, with an average consumption of 14 km/l on each route compared to a hybrid vehicle with an average consumption of 8.5 km/l per route, for better fuel performance within the Metropolitan District of Quito, in heavy traffic conditions. This study conducts a comparison of the consumption between a hybrid vehicle and spark ignition vehicles through the real driving cycle on routes considered to be of greater influx, to determine which vehicle has lower consumption and, therefore, greater energy efficiency in Quito City.
Pre-History of Street Music in Istanbul: Historicizing the Discourses of Street Music
Authors: Aydın Emre , Ayas Onur Güneş
Published: December 2024

The contemporary meaning of street music in Istanbul, especially after the 1990s, was shaped by a global context that linked it to hegemonic struggles in the urban public space. Until then, the term street music was either not used at all or did not have its contemporary meaning. Consequently, the studies on street music often overlooked music practices occurring on the streets prior to the 1990s or tended to express doubt about their status as street music, arbitrarily including some while excluding the others. To address this problem, this study aims to identify and historicize the discourses of street music by delving into the practices and groups associated with street music before its explosion in the 1990s. The categorical content analysis method is used to analyze the data set obtained from historical texts, films, and secondary sources on the history of street music. Four distinct socio-historical contexts of street music were identified: music in public places such as picnic areas, meadows, and promenades; street vendors who are accompanied by music; outdoor music associated with drinking binges; and neighborhood performances. Immigrant groups, Gypsy and non-Muslim entertainment musicians, and immigrant musicians coming from rural areas who are associated with âşık (minstrel) tradition are notable actors. Three dominant themes of historical discourses to interpret and classify the street music are identified: The street musician as a wandering urban folk artist, the street musician as a member of a low-status group, and the street musician as an outsider. These themes contributed to historicizing the discourses around street music, identifying its socio-historical context prior to its explosion in the 1990s, and illuminating the contemporary meaning of street music shaped thereafter.

Published: December 2024

The most important form of accounting financial reporting for
healthcare organizations, as well as other organizations, is the balance
sheet. For commercial and non-profit organizations not related to the
public sector, starting with the reporting for 2025, the recently adopted
FSBU 4/2023 “Accounting (Financial) Statements” will be in effect. The
adoption of this standard was preceded by a fairly lengthy discussion of
the Draft FSBU 4/2023 “Accounting (Financial) Statements”. The article
analyzes the innovations of FSBU 4/2023 “Accounting (Financial) Statements”
in relation to the formation of the balance sheet. The new rules
of this FSBU are compared with the regulations proposed in its draft, as
well as with the rules for the formation of the balance sheet in PBU 4/99
“Accounting Statements of an Organization” and the Order of the Ministry
of Finance of the Russian Federation No. 66n dated July 2, 2010 “On
the Forms of Accounting Statements of Organizations”. An assessment is
given of the innovations of FSBU 4/2023 “Accounting (Financial) Statements”
in relation to the reflection of asset, capital and liability indicators
in the balance sheet. Both the relevance of the changes introduced
by FSBU 4/2023 “Accounting (Financial) Statements” to the balance
sheet structure and the debatable nature of some aspects are noted.
Proposals for resolving controversial issues are substantiated.

Authors: Maghfiroh Adzkia Avisena , Simanjorang Chandrayani , Karima Ulya Qoulan
Published: December 2024

Background: Prediabetes is a golden period because the blood sugar levels can be lowered to normal levels, unlike diabetes mellitus. Studies on risk factors of prediabetes in Indonesia have never been conducted before, especially with cohort study design. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors associated with prediabetes in Indonesia based on a cohort study conducted in Bogor, Indonesia. Study Design: A retrospective cohort study. Methods: This study was conducted using data from the Bogor Cohort Study done by the Ministry of Health of Indonesia, which included individuals aged more than 25 years. Individuals who had impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (100-125 mg/dL) and/or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (140-199 mg/dL) at baseline screening were excluded from the study. Demographic characteristics, risk factors, and clinical observations were extracted using a questionnaire. Cox regression was used for data analysis. Results: The cumulative incidence of prediabetes in Bogor was 50.3%. Factors associated with prediabetes were old age (RR: 1.33; 95% CI 1.19, 1.47), female gender (RR: 1.32; 95% CI 1.18, 1.48), overweight (RR: 1.17; 95% CI 1.01, 1.36), obesity (RR: 1.26; 95% CI 1.08, 1.46), central obesity (RR: 1.17; 95% CI 1.02, 1.34), high cholesterol levels (RR: 1.11; 95% CI 1.00, 1.22), and hypertension (RR: 1.27; 95% CI 1.14, 1.42). Conclusion: Age is a dominant risk factor for prediabetes. Therefore, it is important to stick to a healthy lifestyle by doing more physical activities and maintaining a balanced diet since young age to prevent prediabetes.
Populist Rhetoric, Rise of Far-Right and the Turkish Case
Authors: Gökçekuyu Ertuğrul , Özgür Hüseyin
Published: December 2024

This article examines the long-term impacts of populist leaders, parties and movements on the stability of democratic regimes in Europe, focusing on Germany, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Italy, and Austria. It highlights how populist narratives, particularly around immigration, have stoked nationalism and far-right ideologies, leading to significant electoral gains for populist parties. These developments raise concerns about the erosion of minority rights, the introduction of volatility into democratic systems, and the mainstreaming of xenophobic rhetoric. The discussion also extends to Türkiye, where mass immigration from Syria since 2011 has fostered similar populist sentiments, exemplified by the rise of Prof. Dr. Ümit Özdağ’s Victory Party in 2021. The article stresses the urgent need for comprehensive academic research on the long-term implications of populist rhetoric for social cohesion and political stability. The lack of such studies, especially in countries with new immigration dynamics like Turkey, represents a significant gap in our understanding of how to address future challenges posed by populist threats.

Published: December 2024

Armed conflicts and wars are increasingly shaping the global economic landscape, impacting both traditional markets and the burgeoning cryptocurrency economy. Cryptocurrencies, underpinned by blockchain technology, hold revolutionary potential for transactions, investments, and trading. However, their decentralized and global nature leaves them vulnerable to external shifts, particularly geopolitical events like war. This research explores the influence of war on cryptocurrency from a management perspective, analyzing how conflict impacts regulation, investment patterns, and technology adoption within the cryptocurrency ecosystem. By employing a literature based approach, this study aims to elucidate how global political and security shifts affect the cryptocurrency market. The findings indicate high reliability in the observed variables Investor, Crypto Market, and War with Cronbach alpha values ranging from 0.832 to 0.878, and rhoA values between 0.860 and 0.881. Additionally, composite reliability scores are robust, ranging from 0.860 to 0.882, demonstrating strong measurement reliability. The Average Variance Extracted (AVE) values, between 0.603 and 0.673, confirm that these measurement variables significantly explain the variance of the latent constructs. These results underscore the efficacy of the developed model in analyzing the interplay between war and cryptocurrency markets, contributing valuable insights into the sector resilience and adaptability amid geopolitical conflicts.

En 1973, Neil Postman, sociólogo y crítico cultural estadounidense de la Universidad de Nueva York, discípulo de McLuhan,pronunció el discurso inaugural en la Speech Communication Association. Fue en este discurso que Postman presentó a la comunidad académica la frase ecología de medios y ofreció una descripción detallada del campo y del trabajo que se estaba realizando para organizar la investigación en torno a esa idea. La ecología de los medios es un campo de investigación, y los camposde conocimiento implican la búsqueda activa de conocimiento. Descubrimientos. Exploraciones. Errores. Incertidumbre. Cambio.Nuevas preguntas. Nuevos términos. Nuevas definiciones. En resumen, la ecología de medios es, en sí misma, un sistemaabierto que, en mi opinión, debería ser la característica principal del currículo del futuro. En el viejo Seminario I de nuestracarrera de licenciatura en Comunicación Social de la Universidad Nacional de Rosario, en los ‘90, leíamos uno de sus textos claves:Amusing ourselves to death.Este año se celebró la 25th Annual Media Ecology Association Convention: “Cultivating Community: A Celebration of MEA’s25th Anniversary” en la Universidad de Daemen, en Buffalo, estado de Nueva York.
Analysis of the Relationships Between Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and Intuitive Thinking Skills
Authors: Şahin İsmet
Published: December 2024

Intuition is generally taken as a belief, experience, and tool for knowledge emergence, often characterized by emotional judgments, sensations or foresight and be classified into various types. Recently researchers have started to search for somatic markers for intuition using EEG and ECG. The objective of this study is to explore the correlations between measurements that serve as indicators of heart rate variability and the strength and kind of intuition based on samples self-reports. The samples are 149 students aged 19-21 at Kocaeli University. Data was collected using KYTO2935 HRV sensors, Elite HRV Bluetooth application and the Intuitive Thinking Scale. Research findings indicate correlations between intuitive thinking skills and certain sub-dimensions and specific heart rhythm indices. These correlations vary in terms of their effect sizes, but it is satisfactory to assert that certain features of ours, which are acknowledged as intuitive thinking abilities, are connected to heart rhythm indices and require more thorough investigations.

Authors: Şimşek Fatma , Eğilmez Esra
Published: December 2024

Amaç: İskemik inmeli hastalarda akut fazda asprosin ve adiponektin düzeylerinin ve asprosin ve adiponektinin birbirleriyle ve kısa dönem prognozla olan ilişkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
Materyal ve metod: Mart 2022-Haziran 2022 tarihleri arasında akut iskemik inme tanısı ile ardışık olarak gelen hastalar ve cinsiyet-yaş eşleştirilmiş kontrol grubu çalışmaya alındı. Her iki grupta da serum asprosin, adiponektin düzeyi ve rutin testler incelendi.
Bulgular: İnme hastalarında serum asprosin düzeyi kontrol grubuna göre önemli ölçüde düşüktü (p=0,012). Serum adiponektin düzeyi kontrol grubuna göre düşük fakat istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değildi (p=0,126). Serum asprosin düzeyi ile Ulusal Sağlık Enstitüsü İnme Skoru arasında negatif yönde bir korelasyon vardı (r=-0,423, p=0,004). Serum adiponektin düzeyi ile Ulusal Sağlık Enstitü-sü İnme Skoru arasında anlamlı bir korelasyon yoktu (r=-0,234, p=0,122). Serum asprosin ve adi-ponektin düzeyleri arasında pozitif bir korelasyon vardı (r=0,667, p<0,001). Akut dönemdeki asprosin ve adiponektin düzeyi ile ikinci aydaki sakatlık düzeyi arasında bir ilişki yoktu (r=-0,267, p=0,077; r=-0,068, p=0,658).
Sonuç: Asprosin düzeyindeki düşme artmış iskemik inme riski ve akut inme şiddeti ile ilişkilidir.

Fibrozisi olmayan ve hafif fibrozisi olan hastalar F0 (Evre 0, 1, 2), orta-ağır fibrozisi olan hastalar ise F1 (Evre 3, 4, 5) olarak gruplandırıldı. Yaş, cinsiyet, hemogram ve biyokimyasal bazı parametreler kullanılarak FIB-4, APRI, AAR, KING, AGAP, FIBROQ, FI, FCI, GPR, GUCI ve ALBI skorları hesaplandı.
Bulgular: Hastaların %74,4’ü (n = 116) F0, %25,6’sı (n=40) ise F1 grubunda yer alıyordu. Hastaların yaş medyanı 39.00 [49-31] yıldı. Hastaların 89’u erkek (%57,1) ve 67’si (%42,9) kadındı. FIB-4 (p<0.001), APRİ (p<0.001), KING (p<0.001), AGAP (p<0.001) ve GUCI (p<0.001) skorlamaları arasın-daki fark istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı bulunurken diğer skorlamalar arasında anlamlı farklılık saptan-madı. ROC analizine göre tanı performansı en yüksek olan non-invaziv skor GUCI (0.796) idi ve bu skor için kesme değeri ≥0.70 olarak bulundu.
Sonuç: Çalışmada özellikle tanısal performans bakımından GUCI yararlı bir skor olarak tespit edildi. Karaciğer biyopsisinin invaziv bir işlem olması, komplikasyon riskini taşıması gibi negatif etkileri göz önünde bulundurulduğunda non-invaziv skorlama sistemlerinin fibrozisi tahmin etmede yararlı olacağı söylenebilir.
Modelling the impact of tensile and shear forces during the loop-forming
process in knitting
Authors: IQBAL WAQAR , QI YE-XIONG , JIANG YAMING
Published: December 2024

Knitting is a dynamic process during which the yarn simultaneously receives several mechanical forces such as tensile,
shear and bending, especially when the new loop is drawn out of the old one by the needle hook. Many researchers
analysed the factors mainly focusing on the tension variation during loop formation but seldom studied the impact of
shearing force during new loop formation in detail. This paper presents an innovative method that introduces the
shearing force as an important factor in the theoretical calculation model of forces in an integrated manner to understand
the effect of tensile and shearing forces during a new loop-forming stage. It proves that the impact of shearing force
acting along the yarn’s cross-section is much more severe, which needs to be considered in the knitting machine design,
knitting yarn selection and knitted products’ quality control.

Published: December 2024

With the rapid evolution of fashion trends and consumer preferences, the imperative for agility in footwear design has
become increasingly pronounced. Central to the design process was the criticality of shoe line drawings, the burgeoning
advancements in computer vision and deep learning technologies have engendered a wealth of research in fashion
element recognition. Regrettably, the application of such advancements to footwear remains relatively underexplored.
This study introduces a novel computer vision system tailored to discern and categorise footwear line drawings. The
methodology entails the preliminary training of Mask R-CNN for shoe body extraction from footwear imagery, followed
by applying the PIDINet edge detection algorithm for line drawing delineation, culminating in utilising a classification
model for line drawing. Encouragingly, our findings evince the system’s adeptness in successful line drawing extraction
and classification, particularly demonstrating heightened accuracy in differentiating distinct styles such as nude shoes,
boots, and slippers characterized by salient outline features. This pioneering endeavour not only addresses a gap in
footwear element recognition research but also circumvents the need for an extensive footwear database for algorithmic
training. The anticipated automation of algorithmic footwear line drawing recognition holds promise for enhancing
operational efficiency and innovation, fostering sustainable advancements in fashion research.

Determination of the effects of knitted fabric sewing parameters
on seam damage under multiaxial loading
Authors: ERYAZICI EMINE , URAL ÖZGE
Published: December 2024

The body’s movement during use exposes garments to tension and stress in different directions. To set the sewing
parameters for clothing made of knitted fabrics, especially those commonly used for daily wear and sports, the damage
caused by the seams to the fabric under multiaxial loading should be examined when determining sewing performance.
This study examined the impact of sewing parameters on damage to knitted fabrics under multiaxial loading to identify
the factors affecting sewing quality and performance. For this purpose, to perform the sewing damage tests, the single
jersey, Pique, and interlock fabrics in three colours (white, red, and black) were cut into 30×30 cm-sized swatches.
Samples were sewn parallel to the loop bar (lengthwise) and the fabric’s loop line (widthwise) using two different stitch
lengths, four needle sizes and four stitch types. A total of 576 samples were subjected to stress and strain on a seam
damage testing apparatus as per DIN standard 53 882. Following the tests, the samples were examined under a
microscope, and images were taken. The resulting data was analysed using the SPSS 26.0 statistical program. The
Pearson Chi-squared and Fisher Exact Test were used to compare qualitative data. According to the test results
determined that more significant seam damage occurred along the lengthwise samples of the fabric than the widthwise
for all three fabric types. The study found that as damage increased with needle size, stitch type affected sewing
damage, with the lockstitch causing minor damage, and fabric colour and stitch length had no impact on sewing
damage.
Reconstructing The Paleoenvironmental And Paleoclimate Variabilities Of The River Niger Basin In Nigeria: Insights From Palynological And Geochemical Proxies.
Authors: Alege Tope Shade , Joseph Francis Amobi , Korede Alege Emmanuel
Published: December 2024

This study reconstructs the paleoenvironmental and paleoclimate variabilities of the Paleogene-Quaternary River Niger Basin in Nigeria, West Africa, using integrated geochemical (XRF) and palynological proxies, with samples collected from three locations along a downstream gradient: JB (proximal to the Agbaja ironstone formation), AL (midstream), and JL (farthest downstream). Geochemical analysis reveals distinct trends influenced by the proximity to the Agbaja ironstone. JB sediment exhibits high Fe₂O₃ (20.538 wt.%) and MnO (0.425 wt.%) concentrations, reflecting localised ferruginous inputs and tropical weathering associated with the ironstone. Downstream, AL and JL show increasing SiO₂ content (63.546 wt.% in JB to 87.215 wt.% in JL), indicating progressive sediment dilution, greater contributions from quartz-rich sources, and prolonged transport. The palynological analysis identifies diverse microfossils, including Laevigatosporites sp., Retitricolporites irregularis, Diatom frustules, and Botryococcus braunii, providing insights into vegetation dynamics and hydrological fluctuations. Rainforest indicators, such as Sapotaceae and Proxapertites cursus, signify wetter interglacial periods, while grassland taxa like Monoporites annulatus and charred gramineae cuticles denote arid phases. Algal taxa (Pediastrum sp., Diatom frustules) reflect freshwater conditions, whereas mangrove-associated species (Acrostichum aureum, Echiperiporites sp.) highlight episodes of brackish influence during sea-level rises. This bi-proxy approach reveals alternating humid and arid phases influenced by Quaternary climate oscillations. These changes have affected vegetation cover, sediment transport, and depositional settings. The findings enhance our understanding of the paleoenvironmental evolution of West Africa, providing valuable context for regional climate models and sedimentary processes. This study makes a significant contribution to the findings on Quaternary climate variability and its impact on the ecological and geological history of the River Niger basin in Nigeria, West Africa.

Bandungan Hamlet is administratively located in Kalongan Village, East Ungaran Subdistrict, Semarang Regency, Central Java. The main access road connecting the village to the primary road network has experienced landslides. This study aims to determine the subsurface layering and the depth of the weak zone using the microtremor method, based on the shear wave velocity.The landslide occurred because the soil in the area is soft and loose, situated on the edge of a cliff. During rainfall, the soil becomes saturated with water, and internal water flow (piping) develops within the soil mass. This process leads to soil movement directed toward the river.

Motor vehicle production is one of the sectors that show technological development depending on science and technology. Vehicle maintenance stations and auto repair shops that develop as a result of motor vehicle production are a sectoral occupational field that contributes greatly to employment. Waste materials are produced as a result of production processes, industrial and domestic solid wastes. Especially considering the environmental pollution effects of wastes originating from the motor vehicle repair sector, it is important to take more care because they are much more harmful than domestic wastes. In this sector; a large amount of different wastes are produced during maintenance operations performed after sales. The increasing amount of waste requires waste-free or low-waste production, recycling of wastes and disposal of the wastes in the most appropriate way in terms of economy and environment. The sector has a great responsibility in reducing the wastes originating from various maintenance operations of motor vehicles at their source, ensuring their reuse or recycling. This study includes informing vehicle maintenance stations and auto repair shop operators about modernization, reducing waste amounts, protecting the environment, reducing costs, reducing hazardous waste with clean production measures such as waste prevention, reduction and recycling.

Metal oxides semiconductors such as TiO2, ZnO and NiO etc. are widely available and nontoxic, have chemically stability, large band gap, remarkable structural, photochemical, electronic, and optical properties. These materials gained more attention in the field of sensors, and consumer electronics. Here we report the synthesis of TiO2 nanotubes using anodization of Ti. The structure, optical properties, and morphological composition of synthesized TiO2 nanotubes, are reported. The TiO2 was grown on Ti by anodizing in electrolyte solution containing 0.5 grams of ammonium fluoride, 2 vol% ethylene glycol, and 98 vol% in DI water, at potential difference of 40 V. The fabricated samples were characterized using SEM, AFM and XRD. Surface morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy. Morphological and structural investigations revealed that the as-grown TiO2 nanotubes were in closed packed hexagonal structure which was perpendicular to the Ti surface. The presence of rutile and anatase phases in the sample is evident from XRD results. To validate the SEM findings, the sample was characterized with 3D AFM. An H2 gas sensor was fabricated using the synthesized nanoporous film. The sensor shows a decrease in resistance and increase in current when it is exposed to H2.

To establish the status of millipede attacks on food and market garden crops in the agricultural region of Mbanza-Ngungu, a survey was conducted in the Boko, Kivulu and Kwilu-Ngongo sectors.The results of the survey show that cassava, peanuts, beans, corn and sweet potatoes among food crops, and tomato, cabbage, peppers, hot peppers, eggplant and okra among market garden crops, are those attacked and are attacked throughout the year, but mainly during the rainy season. Among these crops, the most attacked are peanuts and cassava.The damage observed by farmers are, stunted growth (100%) in corn, pod hole (98.2%) in peanut, drying out of the cutting (88.2%) in cassava and wilting of the plant (83.3%) in sweet potato are the most significant damages for food crops. For market garden crops, the destruction of roots, respectively 85.7% in hot pepper, 83.3% in headed cabbage, 76.9% in eggplant, 75% in pepper and okra, is the damage common to all these crops. It also turned out that farmers are not completely helpless against these attacks, but they resort to cultural practices such as crop rotation, the technique of slash-and-burn, the association of crops, the opening of the field by incineration and simple plowing, to try to ward off these attacks.
