The qualitative component included in-depth interviews with selected students, teachers, and health professionals to gain deeper insights into the causes and effects of sedentary behaviors.
Examining the Role of Mindfulness in Alleviating Death Anxiety
Authors: - Kritika Shukla , - Dr. Monalisa Nayak
Published: July 2024

Death anxiety, defined as strong worry and concern about death and dying, can have a substantial impact on a person's mental health and quality of life. This study investigates the effectiveness of mindfulness activities in reducing death anxiety by encouraging a present-focused and welcoming mindset. Mindfulness, which includes essential features such as observing, describing, responding with awareness, being nonjudgmental, and remaining nonreactive, is thought to lower the intensity of death dread through improved emotional control and cognitive processing. The study investigates how mindfulness promotes a more balanced and less reactive approach to existential problems. Mindfulness activities teach people to examine their thoughts and feelings without judgment, narrate their experiences in a non-evaluative manner, act with heightened awareness, and create an attitude of acceptance and non-reactivity. This strategy can reduce the avoidance and denial that are commonly linked with death dread, allowing for a more healthy processing of mortality-related ideas. The study's findings indicate that people who practice mindfulness on a daily basis have lower levels of fear about death. These strategies serve to shift the focus away from future-
oriented anxieties and towards present-moment sensations, lessening the cognitive and emotional load of death-related thoughts. The study emphasizes the therapeutic potential of mindfulness-based therapies in clinical settings and advocates for their incorporation into mental health treatment regimens to address death anxiety and other existential issues. Individuals who cultivate a conscious approach to death may
increase their psychological resilience, enjoy more emotional stability, and acquire a deeper sense of inner peace. The findings of this study highlight the value of mindfulness as a potent strategy for reducing death anxiety and promoting general mental well-being.
Representations Of Lie Algebras of Vector Fields on Pairing Between Gauge Modules and Rudakov Modules
Authors: - Vikas Shrivastava , - Dr. Savita Tiwari , - Dr.Ashfaqe Ur Rahman
Published: July 2024

For an irreducible affine variety X over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we define two new classes of modules over the Lie algebra of vector fields on X: gauge modules and Rudakov modules. These modules admit a compatible action of the algebra of functions on X. We prove general simplicity theorems for these two types of modules, demonstrating their irreducibility under specific conditions. Additionally, we establish a pairing between gauge modules and Rudakov modules, highlighting the connections and interactions between these two classes of modules. We have established that gauge modules and Rudakov modules, corresponding to simple glN -modules, remain irreducible as modules over the Lie algebra of vector fields unless they appear in the de Rham complex. Additionally, we have studied the irreducibility of tensor products of Rudakov modules, providing a comprehensive understanding of these module structures and their applications.

Enhancing User Experience through Recommendation Systems: A Case Study in the E-commerce Sector
Authors: - Rachid Ejjami
Published: July 2024

The significance of recommendation system techniques in improving user experience on e-commerce platforms should be considered as data-driven technologies progress. Conventional recommendation systems frequently need help dealing with issues such as data sparsity, cold start problems, and scalability, which significantly affect the ability of e-commerce platforms to offer accurate and relevant recommendations to consumers. This study evaluates the effectiveness of different recommendation system methodologies, including Averaging, Content-Based Filtering, Collaborative Filtering, Matrix Factorization, and Hybrid Approaches. Utilizing an extensive dataset from an e-commerce company, which encompasses consumer and product information such as ProductID, ProductName, Category, Price, CustomerID, and RatingReview, the dataset is divided into training and testing sets to assess the accuracy of the recommendation system models. Metrics such as Mean Squared Error (MSE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), R-squared, Precision, and Recall are used for this evaluation. Preliminary results indicate that applying advanced recommendation system techniques, especially after optimizing hyperparameters, dramatically improves the accuracy of recommendations and increases user satisfaction compared to more straightforward methods. These findings can revolutionize recommendation tactics on e-commerce platforms, leading to more tailored and gratifying user experiences. The outcomes of this research are expected to enhance the optimization of recommendation systems and broaden the current knowledge on this topic within e-commerce.
From Constrain to Capability: Factors Driving Tribal Women Empowerment through SHGs
Authors: - Punita Verma , - Vijay Kumar Sharma
Published: July 2024

In the current scenario, the empowerment of tribal women holds significant importance in confronting enduring inequalities and propelling the attainment of sustainable development objectives. Indigenous communities frequently encounter socio-economic marginalisation, with tribal women disproportionately affected by this disparity. Empowering tribal women is fundamental in fostering gender parity, given their pivotal contributions to their families, communities, and customary livelihoods. Moreover, amidst escalating globalisation and environmental crises, the imperative to empower tribal women intensifies, ensuring their inclusion in decision-making concerning land rights, natural resource management, and adaptation to climate change. Self-help groups are instrumental in empowering tribal women as they provide a platform for collective action, economic self-reliance, and community support. By participating in SHGs, tribal women gain access to financial resources, skill development initiatives, and valuable networks, enabling them to improve their socio-economic standing and advocate for their rights within their communities. Moreover, SHGs nurture leadership abilities and decision-making skills among tribal women, empowering them to confront challenges such as gender inequality and social exclusion. The paper aims to explore the perceptions of SHG members from five scheduled areas in Himachal Pradesh regarding 49 statements related to various aspects of tribal women's empowerment. It seeks to consolidate these numerous statements into groups based on their intercorrelation using the PCA method of factor analysis, to gain meaningful insights into the role of SHGs in the lives of these tribal women. The results of the systematic factor analysis using Principal Component Analysis and Varimax Rotation with Kaiser Normalization identify ten key factors. The most significant factor in empowering tribal women works out to be the improvement in skills, awareness, and knowledge. Other major factors include enhanced family conditions through better access to facilities, financial independence, and greater involvement in financial decisions. Additionally, community engagement, economic advancement, self-awareness, political awareness, knowledge of rights, and education and training are crucial components for analysing the impact of Self-Help Groups on tribal women's empowerment. By further analysing the ten driving factors identified in this study, a more systematic approach can be developed to assess the capability of these social groups to impact the lives of tribal women. This will allow for a precise evaluation of their overall empowerment through participation in SHGs.
Know Your Sunscreen
Authors: - Aarush Mishra
Published: July 2024

Ultraviolet(UV) radiation from the sun has significant adverse effects on the skin, including sunburns, premature aging (photoaging), tanning, and many skin cancers. Sunscreens protect from harmful UV radiation. This article delves into the fundamentals of solar radiation, focusing on the UV spectrum, its effect on the skin, various types of sunscreens, and their mechanism of action to offer protection from harmful rays.
UV exposure depends on factors like geographic location, altitude, time of day, season, and surface reflectivity. Sunscreen efficacy is measured by the Sun Protection Factor (SPF), which indicates how well a sunscreen can protect against UVB-induced sunburn. SPF ratings of 15, 30, and 50+ correspond to 93%, 96%, and 98% UVB blockage, respectively. In contrast, UVA protection lacks a standardized measure, with various in vitro and in vivo indices used globally.
Sunscreens are categorized as organic (chemical) or inorganic (physical), each with distinct mechanisms and properties. Proper application of sunscreen, involving adequate coverage and reapplication, maximizes its protective benefits, significantly reducing the risk of UV-induced skin damage and cancers.
Despite minor side effects like potential allergies, the advantages of sunscreen use, including prevention of sunburn, tanning, premature aging, and skin cancers, far outweigh the drawbacks.
UV radiation from the sun poses significant risks to skin health. Understanding the nature and effects of UV radiation is crucial in appreciating the importance of protective measures such as sunscreen. The role of sunscreens in providing comprehensive protection cannot be overstated.

Migration is the term used to describe the movement of people from one location to another, usually entailing a change of habitation. This movement can occur between nations (international migration) or within a nation (internal migration). A summary of the idea, contributing causes, effects, and Indian context is provided here. Numerous political, social, economic, and environmental elements all have an impact on the complicated issue of migration. It can happen for a variety of reasons, including the pursuit of better economic opportunities, avoidance violence or harassment, reuniting with family, or responding to environmental triggers like natural catastrophes or climate change. It can also be forced or voluntary, temporary or permanent. In summary, migration is a complex issue that affects people on an individual, societal, and economic level. To effectively manage and exploit migration's possible benefits while reducing its obstacles, policy must take into account the variables that force migration and its effects. India's tendencies in international migration have changed significantly throughout time, motivated by social dynamics, political reasons, and economic opportunities. All things considered, migration from India abroad is a complicated phenomenon that is impacted by domestic ties, global mobility patterns, educational goals, and economic prospects. Migration trends and reasons from India change in tandem with the global environment.
Navigating the Nexus of Tax Avoidance and Strategic Planning: Insights and Strategies
Authors: - ABHINAV SHARMA , - RAJINDER VERMA
Published: July 2024

Tax avoidance and tax planning are two concepts often discussed in the context of corporate governance, financial management, and government fiscal policy. While both aim to minimize tax liabilities, they differ significantly in their legality, ethical considerations, and long-term implications. Tax planning involves strategic decisions within the bounds of tax laws to optimize tax efficiency, ensuring compliance while maximizing benefits for stakeholders. In contrast, tax avoidance exploits loopholes or ambiguities in tax laws to reduce tax burdens, sometimes pushing the boundaries of legality and ethical standards. This abstract explores the distinctions between tax planning and tax avoidance, their impacts on financial transparency, corporate social responsibility, and regulatory responses worldwide. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for policymakers, corporations, and taxpayers navigating the complexities of modern taxation systems.
This paper is a humble effort to understand the concept of ‘Tax Evasion’ and ‘Tax Planning’ difference between these two concepts. It also explores how can existing legal aids be made more accessible and reap better results.

,,Bey und mit Tischbein“. Zu Goethes Umgang mit dem deutschen Maler in Italien
Authors: Linder Jutta
Published: July 2024

Mit Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Tischbein, dem Maler aus dem Hessischen, hatte Goethe schon lange in brieflichem Kontakt gestanden, bevor er ihn persönlich Ende Oktober 1786 in Rom kennenlernte. Verwendet hat er sich auch für ihn, von dessen Hand er mehrfach Stücke in Porträt-
und Historienmalerei in Weimar in Empfang nahm,1 dass ihm ein Stipendium für einen Studienaufenthalt in der ewigen Stadt von Seiten des Hofes Sachsen-Gotha gewährt wurde, was dann über den Herzog Ernst II. mit dem Jahr 1783 erfolgte.2 Und auf ihn zu bauen,
als er sich schließlich selbst nach Rom, dem Hauptziel seiner Italienreise begab, hatte er dergestalt Veranlassung genug; Tatsache ist, dass er ganz selbstverständlich am Ende seiner Station in Venedig im Hinblick auf den weiteren Gang nach Süden dem Diener Seidel in Weimar
mitteilte, er habe zwar bislang die sich auferlegte ,,Einsamkeit“ genossen, doch freue er sich nun nach so viel ,,Fasten“ in puncto Gesellschaft ,,des guten Tischbeins in Rom“.3
Dialograum Küche, oder die Politisierung der Kochkunst bei Walther von der Vogelweide und anderen

Das Thema sei in vormodernen Texten weiter verbreitet als die ,,eher spärlich[e]“ Forschung dazu vermuten lasse, konstatierte Michael Dallapiazza 2015 in einem Beitrag zum ,Essensmotiv‘ in mittelalterlicher Literatur.1 Darin plädierte er auch dafür,
komplementär zu den seit Joachim Bumke geläufigen2 und mit Blick auf die ,Spielregeln‘ öffentlicher Kommunikation neu profilierten Aspekten der Repräsentations- und Ritualfunktion des Mahls3 die gegenläufigen Effekte subversiver Körperinszenierung
verstärkt mit in Betracht zu ziehen. Mit diesem auf so unterschiedliche Gewährsleute wie Michail Bachtin und Caroline W. Bynum gestützten Plädoyer gewinnt neben dem ,,nutritive[n] Akt“4 auch sein (sit venia verbo) ,koquinäres‘ Vor-Feld
– denn ohne Küche kein Mahl – eine hohe semantisch-symbolische Relevanz und Brisanz. Sie regt an, zu erfassen, was sich der exklusiv-verbindlichkeitsstiftenden Ritual- und Repräsentationslogik entzieht, und hilft zu verstehen, warum ein bestimmter Figurentyp und der Ort
seines Wirkens in der höfischen Literatur des 13. Jahrhunderts so oft ins Lächerliche, gar Anrüchige kippt. Die Rede ist von Köchen und Küchen.

Literarische Übergangsriten an der Ostsee. : Ein Versuch über Judith Schalanskys Blau steht dir nicht. Matrosenroman
Authors: Gabbiadini Guglielmo
Published: July 2024

In ihrem Romandebüt Blau steht dir nicht (2008)1 vergegenwärtigt Judith Schalansky, 1980 in Greifswald geboren, Szenen aus den frühen Lebensjahren eines Mädchens namens Jenny bis zu ihrer mutigen Entscheidung, Schriftstellerin zu werden. Es sind
vorwiegend Reise- und Erinnerungsbilder, die ohne Pathos Jennys Entwicklungsprozess zur Schau stellen und dabei deren Übergang in die Erwachsenenwelt nachzeichnen. Inmitten der weiten Landschaft an der Ostsee nimmt Schalanskys ,,Matrosenroman“ anthropologisch relevante Stätten
in Augenschein, auf denen die Abenteuer von Jennys Kindheit sich zugetragen haben. Zugleich bietet er kunstvoll arrangierte Streifzüge durch die neuere Kultur- und Literaturgeschichte, die Gegenstand eingehender Untersuchungen gewesen sind, angefangen von der Farbe Blau – samt ihrer
eminent romantischen Abkunft2 – und den zahlreichen intertextuellen Verweisen auf weitere Autoren der deutschsprachigen Gegenwartsliteratur.3
König Artus gegen Rotkäppchen, Achill gegen Black Panther Fiktionalitätskonzepte im Brettspiel Unmatched

Wie literarische Texte, erzählen auch Spiele Geschichten. Die Erzählweise von Computerspielen wurde sowohl im Rahmen der Game Studies als auch in den verschiedenen kulturwissenschaftlichen Disziplinen umfassend analysiert.2 Dass unter den analogen Gesellschaftsspielen
die genuin narrativ ausgerichteten Pen&Paper-Rollenspiele die besondere Aufmerksamkeit der Erzählforschung auf sich zogen, liegt auf der Hand.3 Doch abseits der spezifisch erzählenden Genres beinhalten auch – legt man die Definition Gérard Genettes zugrunde4
– viele andere Brettspiele einen Plot, der Grundzüge einer Minimalerzählung aufweist. Der aus der spezifischen Spielmechanik abgeleitete narrative Kern von Mensch ärgere Dich nicht, das aus dem indischen Pachisi entwickelt wurde, besteht etwa in der kausalen
Verknüpfung einer auf ein sicheres Ziel zusteuernden, fluchtähnlichen Laufbewegung, die den Nachstellungen der Gegner ausweichen muss. Die thematischen Neubesetzungen in Gestalt von zahlreichen Pachisi-Varianten wie Der Maulwurf und sein Lieblingsspiel, Black Dog
oder Zapp Zerapp, in dem Zauberlehrlinge den Berg der ewigen Stille erreichen müssen, bezeugen nachdrücklich das narrative Potential, das selbst einer höchst simplen Spielmechanik innewohnt.

Mit der Gründung der Akademien, der Vorreiterrolle der Universitäten und ihrer europaweiten Anziehungskraft für Studenten, etwa aus Deutschland, kam Italien Vorbildfunktion zu.1 Gerade die italienischen Frauen besaßen europaweit Bekanntheit,2
denn das Ideal der gelehrten Frau verbreitete sich ausgehend von den italienischen Renaissance-Höfen.3 Insbesondere der Name Giovanni Boccaccios ist damit verbunden, eine bereits in der Antike etablierte Form, den Katalog, zu nutzen, und Frauen der Renaissance – und damit
auch die eigenen Zeitgenossinnen – als Kulturträgerinnen zu zelebrieren: in mehreren Fassungen wird sein De mulieribus claris zwischen 1355 und 1374 veröffentlicht. In der letzten Fassung enthält es 104 Biographien, u.a. mit dem Hinweis auf Dichterinnen wie
Sappho, Cornificia und Proba, sowie die Rednerin Hortensia.4
Narrative des Friedens und des Krieges

Published: July 2024

Am Frieden sind schon viele Dichter und Denker verzweifelt, denn das Gespräch über ihn verstummt im Lärm der Waffen rasch. Über den Krieg hingegen tauscht man sich mit geschichtsbildender Schubkraft aus – er war und bleibt ein Medienereignis ersten Ranges.
Zwietracht und Feindschaft mit all ihren Aktionen eignen sich insoweit besonders gut für Erzählungen über Helden und Antihelden.1

Using a case study at the XYZ coffee shop in Bandar Lampung, Indonesia, this work conducts knowledge extraction on a sales dataset to create a cross-selling model for product bundling advice. Understanding Knowledge extraction was done using a frequent itemset mining technique based on an Apriori algorithm to extract a set of association rules between products. The study implemented a five-stage frequent itemset structure that encompasses business comprehension, data preparation, data exploration, model creation using the Apriori algorithm, and rules evaluation. The framework that comes from this research provides a set of bundling association rules across items for cross-selling strategies that involve many products and complex sales timeframes. Additionally, we recommended sales activities based on loyalty cards to enhance our dataset with consumer attributes and purchasing trends. Based on customized services and tailored offers based on consumers' past purchases and spending patterns, the loyalty card recommendation was created. Consequently, we may target the appropriate clients and items with our marketing initiatives

Published: July 2024

Industry 4.0's pervasive digital ideas have completely changed how businesses operate. A lot of big businesses have switched to digital systems. However, due to a lack of funding and digital infrastructure, SME sector digitalization issues still exist. Inventory management is one of the many manual methods that many SMEs still have to rely on, which makes it prone to error. To manage inventories more accurately and effectively, manual systems must be changed. The goal of this project is to improve inventory management efficiency by creating a dependable and affordable automated system. A cloud database is connected to the system to provide quick inventory monitoring on warehouse shelves. Prototyping and statistical testing are used in the study technique to evaluate the system's dependability. Using an Internet of Things-based single-board computer, the research creates an inventory monitoring system. With a daily implementation cost of IDR 642.92, the system is deemed cost-effective based on inventory monitoring results on warehouse shelves. Because the system's performance reached a Cronbach's alpha value greater than 0.8, the inventory management system used in the study is regarded as dependable for application in real-world systems to increase inventory management accuracy
Reducing overnight charges in the loading process of finished goods using FMEA method at PT. XYZ

As a part of the supply chain, the logistics department plays a crucial role in the operational activities of a company. Like other departments, the logistics department also incurs costs that do not add value, such as overnight charges. Failure in the loading of finished goods process can result in a dwell time exceeding 18 hours per vehicle, leading to overnight charges. This occurrence can be prevented by identifying risks and failure modes using Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA). The FMEA methodology is widely utilized across various industries, including manufacturing, for product development. Additionally, FMEA is frequently employed in failure analysis in service industries, food services, construction, mining, agriculture, and healthcare. The research was conducted to identify failure modes and potential causes in the loading of finished goods process. In PT. XYZ, there are five finished goods storage areas. From the process of weigh-in time, loading finish goods, and weigh-out time, 25 activities were analyzed, and seven activities with the highest Risk Priority Number (RPN) were selected for solutions. The activity with the highest RPN, scoring 512, was the queuing of trucks exceeding loading capacity. The why-why analysis technique was employed to assist in finding solutions. From the seven activities with the highest RPN, 9 solution plans were derived. The recommendation to reduce queue trucks is to organize and monitor the vehicles dispatched by the Freight Forwarder. As a result, the dwell time per vehicle decreased from 9.23 hours to 6.36 hours, and the overnight charges reduced from 148,145 USD to 12,345 USD
Warehouse material handling layout planning using the activity relationship chart method and blocplan 90
Authors: Syahreen Nurmutia
Published: July 2024

This research aims to plan the layout of material handling in a warehouse using the Activity Relationship Chart (ARC) method which is supported by the application of Blocplan 90. In warehouse management, the layout of material handling plays a crucial role in operational efficiency and productivity. The ARC method is used to identify relationships between activities in the material handling process and Blocplan 90 is used as a tool to optimally arrange the warehouse layout. This research will involve analysis of various material handling activities, including storing, picking, and moving goods. By paying attention to the interrelationships between activities revealed by ARC, this research will produce layout recommendations that can increase efficiency, reduce travel time, and minimize the risk of accidents and damage to goods. It is hoped that the results of this research can provide practical guidance for warehouse planners to improve operational performance and optimize the use of storage space. Thus, this research provides a significant contribution in the context of logistics management and operational efficiency in warehouses. The results of this research show that there is a difference in OMH produced in the selected proposed layout, namely IDR 23,748/day from IDR 49,085/day. This shows that there is a reduction in OMH of 52%

Welding is a method of joining two or more metals with electrode extension media using current heating and voltage according to the variation in the thickness of the iron material used. Welding is one of the connection media with a patent system, meaning that the results of the process can be changed by damaging the results of the welding process. From looking at several welding workshops, almost all of them to do welding are under or on the ground so many workers complain that they tend to be more tired and the welding results are less than optimal, especially for symmetrical or straightness of the connection results. The method used in this research is to design a welding table that is adjusted to the level of needs, especially for the height of the table and the centric axis to combine so that the results of the connection process are completely straight and reduce the results of welding defects. The purpose of designing this welding table is to use it as a method for working on the welding process so that the welding results are really strong and straight according to the design drawing. From the results of the design process, a welding table is obtained with iron material as a table base to place the workpiece to be cut. using borders of iron with a thickness of approximately 120 x 240 x 40cm using Material: Iron plate about 5-6 mm thick. In addition, the results of the design process also reduce the welding process time for blunt joints from 85 seconds to 48 seconds, overlap joints from 85 seconds to 60 seconds, and T joints from 88 seconds to 81 seconds. The quality of the welding results is visually better, the results of welding defects are smaller and straighter or symmetrical
On the Homotopy-First Integral Method for Non-conservative Oscillators
Authors: García Andrés
Published: July 2024

This paper presents a ready-to-use formula for determining the number and approximate location of periodic orbits in second-order Lienard systems. As a result of the exact closed-form derived in [16], in which an ordinary differential equation (ODE) must be solved to determine the existence and location of periodic orbits for general non-conservative oscillators, a homotopy functional is defined for Lienard-type systems. This provides a closed-form and ready-to-use polynomial formula with roots as an approximation of the periodic orbit's amplitude. In addition, some examples are analyzed, along with conclusions and future plans.
