Authors: Normurodov A. B. , Mukhtarov A. P , Umarova F. T , Tashmetov M. Yu. , Makhkamov Sh. , Sulaymonov N. T.
Published: March 2022

Stability and charge states of vacancy in Si29 and Si38 clusters have been calculated by non-conventional tight-binding method and molecular dynamics. Based on the theoretical calculations, it was shown that the vacancy in pure dimerized clusters is unstable, while in hydrogenated Si29H24 and Si38H30 clusters it is stable, but leads to a distortion of its central part with the transition of symmetry from Td to C3v and a change in the forbidden gap. The charges of cluster atoms in the presence of a vacancy are distributed so that all silicon atoms acquire a stable negative charge, which occurs due to the outflow of electrons of the central atom to the neighboring spheres.
Equilibrium properties of the lattice fluid with the repulsion between the nearest neighbors on the two-level lattice with nonrectangular geometry
Authors: Groda Ya. G.
Published: March 2022

The equilibrium properties of the lattice fluid with the repulsion between the nearest neighbors on the two-level planar triangular lattice are investigated. The numerical results obtained from the analytical expressions are compared with the Monte Carlo simulation data. It is shown that the previously proposed diagrammatic approximation makes it possible to determine the equilibrium characteristics of the lattice fluid with the repulsion between the nearest neighbors on a two-level lattice with an accuracy comparable to the accuracy of modelling the system using the Monte Carlo method in the entire range of thermodynamic parameters. It was found that, in contrast to a similar one-level system, a lattice fluid with the repulsion between the nearest neighbors undergoes a first-order phase transition.
Complemento por horas extraordinarias en vacaciones: computan las horas que pudieron haberse trabajado durante su disfrute.
Authors: Martínez Moya Juan
Published: March 2022

No puede afectar a la cuantía de la retribución de las vacaciones una disposición normativa convencional o una práctica empresarial que tenga un efecto potencialmente disuasorio y que constituya una desventaja económica en el disfrute de las vacaciones anuales del trabajador. Esa desventaja y efecto disuasorio pueden ser resultado de la regulación y aplicación de un mecanismo de contabilización de las horas trabajadas en virtud del cual el disfrute de unas vacaciones puede suponer una reducción de la retribución del trabajador, al eliminarse de esta el complemento previsto para las horas extraordinarias efectivamente realizadas. En estos casos el concepto de hora trabajada es más amplio que el de hora efectivamente trabajada.
Une disposition conventionnelle et toute pratique ou omission d'un employeur ayant un effet potentiellement dissuasif sur la prise du congé annuel par un travailleur est incompatible avec la finalité du droit au congé annuel payé. Cet effet désavantageux et dissuasif peut résulter de l'application d'un mécanisme de compatibilisation des heures travaillées en vertu duquel la prise d´un congé est susceptible d'entraîner une réduction de la rémunération du travailleur, celle-ci étant amputée de la majoration prévue pour les heures supplémentaires effectivement accomplies, est de nature à dissuader le travailleur d'exercer son droit à congé annuel payé durant le mois au cours duquel il a accompli des heures supplémentaires.. Dans ces cas, la notion d'heures travaillées est plus large que celle d'heures effectivement travaillées.

Authors: Cavas Martínez Faustino
Published: March 2022

Cuando una Administración pública se subroga, por reversión en la gestión de un servicio público previamente externalizado, en el personal laboral fijo de la empresa contratista, debe mantener esa condición de fijeza, siendo inadecuado aplicar en este caso la categoría de personal indefinido no fijo, so pena de desconocer las exigencias derivadas de la Directiva 2001/23/CE. Ahora bien, la fijeza lo es con adscripción a la unidad productiva transmitida y respecto de las funciones desempeñadas en la misma.

When a Public Administration assumes, due to reversal in the management of a previously outsourced public service, the permanent employees of the concessionaire company, that one must maintain this fixed condition. It's not appropriate in this case to apply the category of non-permanent indefinite personnel, in order to comply with the requirements arising from Directive 2001/23/EC. However, the employment stability is only operational within the framework of the productive unit transferred and regarding the functions developed in it.

Decorative Flame Behavior Study in Visualizing Wavelengths and Frequency: Ruben's Tube Construction Experiment
Authors: Jameel Ahmad T. , Al-Qasaab Mohammed R. , Al-Naffakh Jameel
Published: March 2022

Sound waves are very frequent in everyday life, although they are never seen. The particles of the average vibrations are parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In this article, the effect of changing the frequency of the sound wave on standing waves was investigated with different hertz frequencies to show technical images that can be visually translated to give fundamental predictions about the origin of the musical combinations, as it was proved that the sound is a pressure wave by giving the vibrations one side while the gas is released the other side. To obtain accurate results, the variables were fixed in the experiment as the type of gas supplied for the same experiments. It is also installed so that the distance between the diaphragm and the amplifier does not differ. The results analyzed after numerous data collection and calculations verify that the generated wavelength and frequency are directly proportional. As the frequency specified in Hz increased, the number of inverse nodes and nodes also increased. Obtaining standing waves helps to understand the nature of sound as a pressure wave, and to give all the details about the experiment and evaluate it. Sources of error and possible solutions to overcome these problems are also mentioned.

Authors: Gunathilaka M. D. K. L. , Harshana W. T. S.
Published: March 2022

Monitoring spatial changes of surface heat island formation and temperature changes in sub-urban areas is vital in the freshwater lake management of urban areas as frequent phenomena related to climate change have undergone. The purpose of this study was to examine the Spatio-temporal pattern of urban heat island and land surface temperature and vegetation changes by using GI statistics, where hotspot analysis was also performed. The study further examined the effect of heat island and surface temperature on urban freshwater lakes where hot and cold spots identified had undergone a reclassification process. The results revealed that the increasing Land Surface Temperature (LST) due to modification and transformation of vegetated areas into concrete and synthetic built-up extents is one of the challenging problems in the selected suburbs. Both NDVI and LST hot spots and cold spots have changed compared to 2010. The LST showed considerable expansion of the hotspots within ten years rather than cold spots in all three suburbs. The freshwater lakes are in proximity to the city. All three lakes were finally reclassified as hotspot areas for LST, while Kesbewa Lake and Thalangama Lake were identified as NDVI hotspots where the vegetation cover had contracted by 2020. Even though Boralesgamuwa Lake is not recognized as an NDVI hotspot, the encroachment and expansion of the current hotspot area could be identified. The study's findings could be used to design sustainable cities in these suburbs more by prioritizing the conservation of urban ecosystems.

Authors: Malekpour Mehrgan , Yazdani Morteza , Kordkheili Hamed Gholami , Rezvani Hamidreza
Published: March 2022

The paper deepens the theoretical understanding of previous models on product innovation strategies and provides an enriched dynamic classification of product innovation based on 16 strategies. Using a critical literature review as well as the analysis of the case study, it seems some important models related to product innovation like Ansoff’s grid require a modern theoretical update. Therefore, an updated version of prior product-market growth strategic grids is provided, with sixteen distinct options. Data and examples for illustration of the proposed strategies are obtained from companies in the foods and beverages industry located in Iran. Results suggest that companies should select one of sixteen strategies for creating innovative products according to competition level, market types in terms of homogeneous or heterogeneous, innovation leadership (market leader or market follower), and innovation capability (low versus high). The contribution of the paper is based on the integration of the effective factors for generating successful innovative products according to firm and market situations. The contributions for decision-makers are aimed at creating the best possible strategy toward new products and providing them with a guide for determining the blend of product innovation strategies to adopt in order to gain a competitive advantage.

Authors: Visconti Caparros Jose María , Campos-Blázquez Juan Ramón , Morcillo Ortega Patricio
Published: March 2022

Technological disruption and social transformation have gone hand-in-hand in recent decades and caused radical changes in the viability of business strategies. This continuous change, happening with unprecedented speed, forces organizations to consider being part of new collaborative value creation networks, such as digital business ecosystems (DBEs). Although scholars have analyzed DBEs from different perspectives since its emergence over a decade ago, DBE research lacks its own theories. Through a single case study, the purpose of this study is to identify the main components and its relationships of the DBE of the Spanish instant mobile payment solution Bizum, under the Modularity Theory developed by Baldwin (2020a). The findings show that technology shapes the ecosystem and helps to create superior digital value as an instrument to solve technical or strategic bottlenecks. The main contribution of this study is that this theory can be considered as a first step for a DBE-specific theorisation.

"Automatic Object Detection on Aerial Images Using Convolutional Neural Networks"
Authors: Singh Jasdeep
Published: March 2022

Large quantities of aerial and satellite images are being acquired on a daily basis. Many practical applications may benefit from the analysis of such huge amounts of data. We propose an automated content-based analysis of aerial photography in this letter, which may be used to identify and label arbitrary objects or areas in high-resolution pictures. We developed a convolutional neural network-based approach for automated object identification for this purpose. In the tasks of aerial picture classification and object identification, a new two-stage method for network training is developed and validated. First, we used the UC Merced data set of aerial pictures to evaluate the suggested training method, and we were able to obtain an accuracy of about 98.6%. Second, a technique for automatically detecting objects was developed and tested. For GPGPU implementation, a processing time of approximately 30 seconds was needed for one aerial picture of size 5000 x 5000 pixels.

Published: March 2022

The ethnic configuration in Nigeria has constituted a problem to the unity of the country, right from the eve of independence when it became clear that Nigeria will be granted independence. This study ‘Ethnic Cleavages in Nigeria: The Bane of Good Governance” examines the struggle between the ethnic groups for dominance, the interface between the ethnic agenda and governance, and to ascertain the persistence of misgovernance in the country. It employ qualitative content analysis to elicit data for the study. What are the root causes of misgovernance in Nigeria? Why have the ethnic groups persistently pitched themselves against each other when there are measures put in place to address ethnicity in the country? The political elite in governance explicitly andimplicitly preached the ethnic agenda which has kept us divided along ethnic line since independence, inhibiting good governance. A restructuring of governance is required to give greater fiscal autonomy and responsibility to the federating units, and a new constitution that will be a product of the people, define the way we co-exist must be put in place, as well as a viable, persistent and engaging civil society to address the menace of ethnicity in Nigeria.

Kościół polski w Rzymie: tożsamość i reprezentacja w perspektywie sztuki
Authors: Skrabski Józef
Published: March 2022

Publikacja Kościół polski w Rzymie: tożsamość i reprezentacja w perspektywie sztuki autorstwa Józefa Skrabskiego to studium dziejów artystycznych i społecznych kluczowych polskich instytucji we Włoszech – narodowego hospicjum i kościoła św. Stanisława w Rzymie. Autor kompleksowo i w perspektywie kilku stuleci bada temat kształtowania i reprezentacji polskiej tożsamości narodowej w Wiecznym Mieście poprzez sztukę. Z jednej strony przygląda się dziełom malarstwa, rzeźby i rzemiosła artystycznego funkcjonującym w przestrzeni kościoła i hospicjum – zarówno obiektom wciąż istniejącym, jak i tym znanym jedynie ze źródeł – analizując je pod kątem formalnym i ideowym, z drugiej zaś odmalowuje kontekst społeczny opisywanych zjawisk artystycznych, czerpiąc między innymi z koncepcji miejsca pamięci Pierre’a Nory (lieux de mémoire) czy badań nad kreowaniem wizerunku za pomocą środków artystycznych (w tym wypadku obiektem zainteresowania nie jest jednak wizerunek konkretnej osoby, a całej nacji). Publikacja zawiera zarówno szczegółowy opis dziejów architektonicznych kompleksu polskiego w Rzymie od chwili jego powstania u schyłku XVI wieku aż po moment podniesienia żelaznej kurtyny w drugiej połowie XX stulecia, jak i analizę ulegającego w tym długim okresie licznym przemianom znaczenia polskich instytucji w Rzymie dla samoidentyfikacji Polaków jako jednej z wielu nacji szukających właściwych sposobów wyrażania własnej tożsamości i promowania swoich interesów w sercu chrześcijańskiego świata.
Alexander, Agathoi Daimones, Argives and Armenians
Authors: Djurslev Christian , Ogden Daniel
Published: March 2022

Intriguing and complex traditions are preserved about Alexander and the agathos daimon house-snakes of Alexandria by Phylarchus, the Alexander Romance, ps.-Epiphanius and the Chronicon Paschale. These bear upon both a foundational myth and upon a related cultural practice. New light is shed on these traditions by some striking comparative folkloric evidence gathered in Armenia at the end of the nineteenth century. In primis, the Armenians’ practice of addressing their friendly house snakes as ‘Armenians’ suggests that the Alexandrians’ practice of addressing their own friendly house snakes as ‘Argives’ entailed a notion that they were themselves, somehow, ‘Argive’ in origin, a notion that can be evidenced in several further ways.

RHM, Interdisciplinarity, and an International Public Health Conference
Authors: Welhausen Candice
Published: March 2022

Building connections with professionals in subject matter disciplines—practitioners and/or academics—is a growing area of interest for many scholars working in the rhetoric of health and medicine (RHM). However, strategies for creating and building meaningful, productive interdisciplinary relationships has not been a central theme in RHM-focused scholarship. This entry endeavors to address this gap by using RHM’s emerging version of the “dialogue” genre to describe the author’s experience co-chairing the communications track for an international public health conference. The author weaves in commentary from contributors who participated in the conference and discusses and reflects upon two key challenges that emerged: 1) differences in language choice/terminology, and 2) epistemic conflict. Through this reflective discussion, this dialogue proposes several strategies that RHM scholars might draw from in building their own interdisciplinary relationships moving forward: 1) negotiate shared meanings and goals, 2) find commonalities, and 3) normalize rhetorical inquiry.

Making Present, Making Absent
Authors: Gangstad Erin Nicole
Published: March 2022

In 1907, the National Tuberculosis Association (NTA) began selling Christmas Seals to raise money for the fight against tuberculosis (TB). The decorative holiday stamps quickly became a hallmark of American popular culture throughout much of the 1900s. This project asks how the Christmas Seals, sold between 1920 and 1968, shaped the depiction, imaginary, and understanding of tuberculosis in popular culture. Through visual, rhetorical analysis of the Seals’ presented and suggested elements, I show that the Seals make present normalized images of Whiteness, health, and holiday settings. I argue that the Seals presented elements made absent images of tuberculosis, distancing an invoked, White audience from the realities of the disease and playing on their hope and desire for a world free of TB. This case study considers the rhetorical function and value of popular, non-­medical expert images, adds to the historical literature on tuberculosis, and offers a framework for the continued study of medical fundraising images.
The Trigger Warning and the Pathologizing White Rhetoric of Trauma-Informed Pedagogy
Authors: Grayson Mara Lee
Published: March 2022

In this article, I analyze the trigger warning, a pedagogical practice often framed as student-responsive and trauma-informed, to elucidate the ways in which trauma-informed pedagogy functions rhetorically to pathologize and individualize experiences of racism and other societal inequities that cause collective trauma. I draw upon original interview data and rhetorical analysis through a systems framework to explore how reductive pedagogical practices developed within the confines of a white, western notion of trauma may subsequently perpetuate students’ marginalization. Finally, I highlight the potential for more comprehensive, inclusive pedagogies to address student trauma, acknowledge societal conditions that impact individual experiences, and shift popular discourse that pathologizes trauma.
Lego™ Learning: A Scalable Approach to Pedagogy in the Rhetoric of Health and Medicine
Authors: Swacha Kathryn , St.Amant Kirk
Published: March 2022

Complex health and medical contexts demand not only responsive, mutable research but also responsive, flexible pedagogies. Arguing for a shift from the dominant conception of pedagogy as a pre-planned, linear scaffold, this article proposes instead an approach—called Lego™ Learning—that re-conceptualizes instructional content as self-standing, short-term units or modules, much like Lego™ bricks. Because such modules have self-contained learning objectives and corresponding tasks, they can be shifted within a course or across courses as-needed. This approach allows rhetoric of health and medicine (RHM) instructional content to respond to, and prepare students for, the ever-changing exigencies and contexts of RHM-related work. It also encourages collaborations across classes, institutions, and other contexts. In this entry, we frame our discussion around four learning outcomes and teaching practices that can be facilitated through this approach, and we provide an extended example of an ongoing cross-institutional partnership that employs Lego™ Learning.
Employing HEC-ResSim 3.1 for Reservoir Operation and Decision Making

The land of Himachal Pradesh is full of small and big rivers which are perennial. This benefit pushes Himachal Pradesh to build more and more dams to generate electricity, provide better irrigation supply to downstream areas and provide flood protection. To better utilize the huge potential of water, management of such reservoirs is the key issue. For this purpose, HEC-ResSim 3.1 is practiced on Pong Dam situated in western Himachal Pradesh. HEC-ResSim is one of the simulation models that possess single or multi-reservoir simulators and can simulate water resources systems. In this study, reservoir elevation and reservoir storage volume management is the target objective. The presented study was subsidized by daily observed data from 1998 up to 2014 of pool elevation, inflow, and outflow discharge. In addition, geometry and hydraulic data from dam and reservoir were employed to develop the platform to create a simulation using HEC-ResSim. Using the available reservoir data the simulation was performed for the 4 months of 2012. Then simulation results were compared with the real-time recorded data at the site. To validate the results, coefficient of determination for operations like reservoir elevation and reservoir storage was generated through regression plot and found more than 95% accurate. Also, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) was calculated for both reservoir elevation and reservoir storage simulation and found under an acceptable range. This paper shows the utility of HEC-ResSim 3.1 for reservoir operational management and also throws light on the further scope. Finally, there is a discussion of how useful is HEC-ResSim as a reservoir management tool and integration of HEC-ResSim 3.1 with other hydrologic monitoring systems.
Correction of Refractive Errors after Corneal Transplantation

Published: March 2022

Even after a successful keratoplasty with a clear graft, a high postoperative refractive error could occur too hard to correct with spectacles or contact lenses. Therefore, refractive surgery could be considered a good tool to correct these high postoperative defects. The authors showed the reasons involved in the refractive errors after successful penetrating (PKP) or lamellar transplantation (DALK), pre-, intra-, and post-operatively. Moreover, they presented different techniques to correct the refractive errors after transplantation for different corneal pathologies, in the plastic phase (managing of transplant sutures) as well as in the static phase (different refractive techniques: incisional (AK, FemtoAK), ablative (PRK, FemtoLASIK), or IOL implantation (Phakic IOL, PHACO + IOL)). Thus, it is necessary to study accurately every single clinical case to choose the best surgery for each patient. Due to the high risk of graft damage or graft rejection, the patient must be adequately informed about the risks and benefits of the surgery proposed and must specifically accept the possibility of a new corneal transplant in the event of surgery failure or graft damage. Certainly, the refractive surgeon must be able in managing all the different refractive surgery techniques to reach the best result in every single case.
Review on Pseudo-Cereals of India
Authors: Nagar Padamnabhi , Engineer Riya , Rajput Krishna
Published: March 2022

Pseudo-cereals are non-grass, wild plants whose seeds are used in the same manner as cereals, but are underutilized due to the dominance of conventional cereal crops. Pseudo-cereals have varied adaptability. They are climatically more resilient and nutritionally richer than major cereal crops. They are enriched with essential amino acids and their protein content is either similar or greater than that of cereals. They contain adequate amounts of dietary fibers that help improve lipid metabolism. They also contain saponins, polyphenols, betalains, flavonoids, antioxidants, vitamins, and other important phytochemical compounds that help detoxify ROS and cope up with the diseases. Interest in the research of pseudo-cereals is growing among the research community due to its extraordinary nutritional and phytochemical profile and its potential in the development of gluten-free products. It can serve as an alternative food source against staple cereal crops under harsh environmental conditions and if cultivated sustainably, can resolve hunger issues in many countries. Pseudo-cereals form an integral part of the biodiversity due to its widespread usage by the tribals. Wild plants of many angiosperm families are used by tribal communities, but in this review, we will only focus on members of Amaranthceae and Chenopodiaceae families.
