Published: September 2023

The Water Evaporation Optimization - Great Deluge explores the synergy between the Water Evaporation Optimization Algorithm (WEOA) and the Great Deluge Algorithm (GDA) to create a novel fusion model. This research investigates the efficacy of combining these two powerful optimization techniques in addressing benchmark problems. The fusion model incorporates WEOA's dynamic exploration-exploitation dynamics and GDA's global search capabilities. By merging their strengths, the fusion model seeks to enhance convergence efficiency and solution quality. The study presents an experimental analysis of the fusion model's performance across a range of benchmark functions, evaluating its ability to escape local optima and converge towards global optima. The results provide insights into the effectiveness of the fusion model and its potential for addressing complex optimization challenges., a comprehensive performance analysis of the application of the proposed fusion model to a curated set of widely acknowledged benchmark functions, renowned for their role in evaluating the capabilities of optimization algorithms, is undertaken. By rigorously evaluating the convergence characteristics, solution quality, and computational efficiency of the algorithm, a thorough understanding of the strengths and limitations of WEOA is aimed to be provided. Through meticulous comparisons with established optimization techniques, illumination of the aptitude of WEOA in addressing diverse optimization challenges across a spectrum of problem landscapes is intended. The analytical insights, not only advancing the understanding of WEOA's applicability, but also furnishing valuable guidance for both researchers and practitioners in search of robust optimization methodologies, are proffered.

Authors: Sutrisno Sutrisno
Published: September 2023

MSMEs play a crucial role in a country's economy. They contribute to job creation, local economic growth, and product or service innovation. Education is also recognised as a key pillar in community and economic development. Improving the quality of education has the potential to help MSMEs grow and thrive. The purpose of this study is to examine the role of business mentors in supporting the growth of MSMEs that receive support from education. This research is a literature review that uses a qualitative method approach, which means it will analyse and interpret data by relying on information and text from special sources, namely Google Scholar and Google search engine. The results of this study show that the role played by business mentors in supporting the growth of education-supported MSMEs is significant. The collaboration between business knowledge gained through formal education and practical guidance from mentors forms a strong foundation for sustainable business growth. Mentors not only provide insight and experience, but also help young business owners overcome challenges, formulate effective strategies, and build valuable networks. In an ever-changing business ecosystem, this role is becoming increasingly important in moulding the next generation of competent and innovative entrepreneurs.

Evaluation of frequency domain parameters of heart rate variability in patients with essential hypertension
Authors: Kapadia Nilaykumar , Thaker Ravi , Mehta Jwalit , Shah Amar
Published: September 2023

Background: The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is crucial for controlling blood pressure and preventing the onset of hypertension. Analyzing heart rate variability (HRV) is a common diagnostic method for evaluating the actions of the ANS. The two domains under which HRV can be evaluated are the time domain method and the frequency domain approach.

Aim and Objective: The primary objective of this study was to check the cardiovascular health and cardiac autonomic regulation of patients with essential hypertension by assessing frequency domain parameters of HRV.

Materials and Methods: The study included 50 patients with essential hypertension in the age group of 35–55 years and 50 healthy individuals of the same age group were selected as controls. HRV assessment was done using standardized instruments and emWave Pro software. All the individuals went through 5 min HRV assessment in the supine position. The frequency domain parameters were checked for analysis of HRV.

Results: Very low frequency, low frequency (LF), and high frequency (HF) were significantly lower in hypertensive patients as compared to healthy individuals. The mean value of the LF/HF ratio (2.01 ± 0.61) in hypertensive patients was significantly higher as compared to normal individuals (0.99 ± 0.17, P < 0.001). Total power was also significantly low in hypertensive individuals (457.40 ± 133.63 ms2) than healthy individuals (457.40 ± 133.63 ms2, P < 0.001).

Conclusion: The study indicates that as compared to healthy individuals, in hypertensive patients low total power and high LF/HF ratio are seen which are suggestive of poor cardiovascular health and cardiac autonomic dysregulation in hypertensive individuals.
Immersed in Training
Authors:   , Kleygrewe Lisanne
Published: September 2023

The aim of this thesis was to gain insights into the implementation and application of VR training for police agencies. In current police training practices, police agencies employ scenario-based training to simulate on-duty tasks. While the use of scenario-based training allows trainees to prepare for on-duty situations in training, the organization and delivery of real-life scenario-based training is resource-intensive. Training technologies — particularly Virtual Reality (VR) — present a new training tool for scenario-based training. Immersive VR for police training allows police agencies to simulate a broad range of environments and scenarios without the need for specific training locations or props. In addition, VR allows police trainers to safely integrate vulnerable populations (e.g., children, animals, elderly) and high-risk material (e.g., explosives) in training. Specifically using full-body motion tracking, police officers can move about in the simulated environments and utilize their equipment (e.g., weapon belts) as they would in real-life training and on-duty. Research investigating the efficacy of VR is becoming more prevalent; nonetheless, the evidence on common training standards for the successful use of VR for police training is scarce. The studies presented capture VR police training from an interdisciplinary, context-dependent, and evidence-based perspective. Taken together, the chapters in this thesis highlight considerations and evidence-based guidelines for implementing and applying VR to existing police training. In this way, this thesis contributes to the advancement and innovation of police training practices.
Sexual abuse in individuals with intellectual disability
Authors:   , Smit Manon Jacomarg
Published: September 2023

Sexual abuse is a worldwide problem that has far-reaching consequences for health and psychosocial functioning. Research has demonstrated that individuals with intellectual disability (ID) are at greater risk of sexual abuse than individuals with (higher than) average IQ. To mitigate the consequences of sexual abuse, prevent re-victimization and improve quality of life, early detection and adequate assessment and treatment of sexual abuse are indispensable. Two requirements in particular stand out to achieve this. First, a clear policy and protocol to identify and handle sexual abuse and their effective implementation within a care facility is a prerequisite. This is crucial for care professionals, including body- and movement-oriented therapists, to know how to act if they suspect or detect sexual abuse. In addition, such a protocol should provide information about which assessment tools and treatments are recommended. Second, care professionals should have knowledge about the consequences of sexual abuse in individuals with ID. For body- and movement-oriented therapists, knowledge about the impact of sexual abuse on body experience is of specific value as this is the main focus of their treatment approach. However, hardly any studies are available on sexual abuse in individuals with ID, as a result of which the knowledge basis to fulfil these requirements is largely lacking.

This thesis demonstrated that most care facilities for individuals with ID comply with the national legal requirements on sexual abuse, which demand the availability of a protocol on sexual and mandatory reporting to the Health and Youth Care Inspectorate (in Dutch ‘Inspectie Gezondheidszorg en Jeugd’, IGJ). However, the care facilities varied widely in the extent to which the protocols on sexual abuse are brought to the staff’s attention and used in practice. Furthermore, a review of the literature on the clinical characteristics of individuals with ID who have been sexually abused was provided. Higher levels of aggression, self-injury, inappropriate sexualized behaviour and posttraumatic stress, anxiety or depressive symptoms were among the most frequently mentioned. In addition, this thesis showed that adults with mild ID who were sexually abused, compared to individuals with mild ID who were not sexually abused, seemed to be more aware of their body signals, but less able to adequately attend to, tolerate, and interpret these signals. Lastly, an instrument for measuring the body experience in individuals with mild ID, known as the Body Experience Questionnaire for adults with mild ID or borderline intellectual functioning, was introduced.
Efficient EUV Light Plasma Sources Driven by a 2-μm-Wavelength Laser
Authors:   , Behnke Lars Peter
Published: September 2023

The aim of this Thesis is to experimentally investigate and understand plasmas as used in extreme ultraviolett (EUV) lithography, and learn what conversion efficiencies (CE) and which in-band energies can be achieved by irradiating tin targets
with 2-μm-wavelength laser light. To do so, we built a 2-μm-wavelength system, based
on the parametric conversion of 1-μm- into 2-μm-wavelength, and applied it in our
investigations of EUV light generation. This laser system is not envisioned to be used
in any industrial application since it runs at a low 10 Hz repetition rate, but it is valuable
as a first plasma driver to characterize the EUV emission from 2-μm-wavelength
driven tin plasmas. Our studies include a comparison of 1-μm- and 2-μm-driven
plasmas to gain insight on how the expected reduction in optical depth affects the
CE and obtainable overall in-band energy. This insight is valuable to characterize
and understand the effects of different laser irradiation parameters (i.e., laser intensity,
laser pulse duration, laser beam spot size, and intensity distribution) and tin target
morphology. We systematically investigate how the in-band energy that could be used
in EUVL scales with laser irradiation parameters and tin target size. The goal is to
determine if the in-band energy could be scaled to energy levels relevant to the industry
without impairing the CE. Showing high obtainable CEs from 2-μm-wavelength driven
EUV plasma close to those from the CO2-gas laser, at relevant in-band energies would
be a critical first step towards demonstrating the feasibility to enhance the overall energy efficiency of EUV sources by using 2-μm solid-state-lasers.
Shall we get along or get ahead?
Authors:   , Bouwens Akvile
Published: September 2023

In light of the increasing interest of scholars and managers in understanding the factors that constitute and how we can create an organizational context in which individuals feel comfortable and open giving and seeking feedback, this dissertation investigated the following question: How does the organizational context of feedback shape individuals’ feedback giving and feedback seeking? Based on a systematic literature review of the multilevel contextual influences on the feedback-performance relationship in teams, this dissertation showed that research on intrateam influences is more advanced than research on inter- and extrateam-level contextual factors. In addition, to respond to this gap identified in the literature as well as to the limitations of the literature highlighted in this dissertation’s introductory chapter, we conducted two empirical studies. Specifically, using a multiple-case study design to investigate three organizations, we explored how the organizational context of feedback shapes individuals’ perceptions of negative feedback giving. Moreover, using six diverse samples, we developed a scale to measure individuals’ perceptions of organizational feedback norms, and using supervisor-employee dyads, we investigated how those feedback norms shape the individual’s feedback-seeking behaviour (i.e., feedback monitoring and feedback inquiry) via the perceived value of feedback and the perceived risk of seeking feedback. As a result of these three studies, this dissertation makes several contributions to the literature on the organizational context of feedback and performance management more broadly. First, this dissertation contributes to the discussion concerning the organizational context of feedback and how it shapes individuals’ feedback seeking and feedback giving at work. Second, this dissertation adds to the literature on organizational feedback norms and how to measure them. Third, it contributes to the literature on feedback seeking and feedback giving by offering a perspective that may unite these two separate literature streams. Finally, this dissertation adds to the literature on performance management by proposing a perspective that can be used to explore its organizational context. Each chapter concludes by highlighting the practical implications of this research for managers and organizations who aim to create an organizational context that is favourable to feedback giving and feedback seeking among individuals. Specifically, we encourage organizations to consider this endeavour to stimulate feedback in the organization holistically, which requires them to pay attention to the organizational context of feedback. We particularly emphasize the importance of organizational performance and relational norms as well as that of actively encouraging feedback within organizations, which can jointly foster or hinder an individual’s tendency to give and seek feedback at work.

COTTON GERMPLASM CHARACTERIZATION FOR DROUGHT TOLERANCE BASED ON MORPHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL AND FIBER QUALITY PARAMETERS
Authors: ASIF M.
Published: September 2023

Drought tolerance is a quantitative trait that is exceedingly challenging to breed, especially for allotetraploids like cotton. The scenario of limited water resources necessitates developing droughttolerant cultivars that conserve significant irrigation water throughout the summer. Therefore, the presented study used a design to statistically analyze the morphological, physiological, and fiber quality parameters linked with drought tolerance, which is a comprehensive method for choosing better genotypes from the available cotton germplasm. Measuring these parameters ensued for plants grown under field conditions. The germplasm comprised 150 cotton genotypes studied at two water regimes, i.e., regular and water-stressed conditions for two consecutive seasons of 2015–2016 and 2016–2017. Data recording ran for different morpho-physiological and fiber quality parameters. Significant differences occurred for all the treatments, genotypes, and Genotype × Environment interaction for all the morphological, physiological, and fiber quality parameters under study. Additive Main effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI) analysis and AMMI biplot analysis helped analyze the results, which revealed that the cotton genotypes FH-900, FH-901, FH-312, AS-1, AS-2, AS-3, RH510, RH-627, AR-2, AR-9, BH-118, BH-175, SLH-74, CIM-1100, CIM-598, and MM-58 were drought tolerant and ranked highest concerning stress condition. Moreover, correlation studies distinguished the relationship between relevant traits concerning drought tolerance.
GENETICS OF CERCOSPORA LEAF SPOT RESISTANCE IN MUNG BEAN
Authors: AKHTAR M.A.
Published: September 2023

Pulses are notably good nutritive complements of carbohydrate-rich staple diets, such as, wheat, maize, and rice. Mung bean is an essential pulse crop with different proteins and antioxidants proven beneficial for health. The yield of mung bean in Pakistan is comparable to the world average, but overall production is low because of several biotic and abiotic factors. Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) is one of mung bean’s most damaging diseases, limiting its productivity, causing significant losses in yield and an overall gap in production. The presented investigation progressed to comprehending the genetics of resistance to CLS in mung bean. A minicore set of 293 mung bean genotypes developed and maintained by the World Vegetable Center, Taiwan, served as samples in the study. Observed CLS attacks occur during flowering and reduce the yield by decreasing the number of pods per plant. The genetics to resistance against CLS has a single recessive gene controlling it; hence, homozygous recessive plants will be CLS-resistant. Therefore, single gene transfer methods, such as, backcross breeding, are recommendable for incorporating CLS resistance in high-yielding mung bean genotypes.

Saudi Novel and Short Story: History, Realities and Prospects
Authors: Altwaiji Mubarak
Published: September 2023

This paper focuses on Saudi fiction, novel and short story, which has enriched Saudi literature and contribut-ed in forming the course of modern Saudi literature. The study of this genre tells us the role of novel and short story in enlightening the people and forming their collective memory. Modern state of Saudi Arabia, earlier Najd and Hijaz, has a rich culture spanning three eras: pre-Islam, post-Islam and modern Saudi Arabia. How-ever, written novel and short story remained non-existent till 1940s when Saudi scholars interacted with Arab universities in Egypt and Lebanon and felt the need for giving a physical manifestation to the available oral fiction. In this study, the author traces the history of Saudi short story and novel through the different stages of their development. The primary focus of the paper is to identify the social and cultural barriers that men and women writers faced and overcame. Among many, the identified barriers are: (i) the social and cultural factors and (ii) the female inclusion. This study initiates a much-needed area of investigation on the develop-ment of modern Saudi novel and short story and motivates scholars and students of literature to familiarize themselves further with the history of Saudi fiction and the factors that contributed to its development be-cause an account of national writing without discussing these factors would be incomplete.

Authors: Firdaus Rosalia , Hernawaty Taty , Suryani Suryani , Banda Kondwani Joseph
Published: September 2023

Background: Schizophrenia stands out as a prominent type of psychosis among various mental disorders. Auditory hallucinations, a prevailing symptom, particularly affect patients with primary psychotic disorders, showcasing a lifetime prevalence rate of 60-80% within the spectrum of schizophrenia disorders.
Objective: This case study presents data and insights concerning the management of nursing challenges linked to auditory hallucinations.
Case: A 17-year-old male was admitted to the psychiatric hospital after being involved in a violent incident with his family. He contended that he was compelled by an external entity to carry out this act. When in his room, the patient exhibits pronounced hallucinatory behavior, including tangential thinking, inability to concentrate during conversations, physically covering his ears in fear, and restless pacing, occasionally attempting to conceal himself under the bed. The nurse employs intervention strategies to address the client’s hallucinations, incorporating methods to gain control over them. These strategies involve encouraging breaks, fostering engagement in positive activities, closely monitoring the patient, and providing education on consistent medication adherence.
Conclusions: After a nine-day period of effectively managing the hallucinations, the patient gains substantial control over them, thereby leading to the resolution of his hallucinatory issues. This research holds potential as a valuable resource for psychiatric nurses in devising interventions within psychiatric hospital settings. Furthermore, it can serve as a foundational component for the evaluation of psychiatric facilities in their provision of effective interventions for patients with psychiatric conditions
