Authors: Cai Zhenhua , Zhao Heng
Published: February 2025

To investigate the specific cooling performance of a hybrid compressor, this thesis carries out a cooling performance test study on it. The object of the study is a hybrid compressor under development, and several different structural solutions are proposed, and the better hybrid compressor structural solution is selected through the performance test in the automotive air conditioning compressor cooling performance test bench. The analysis of the performance test data shows that the hybrid compressor with an internal check valve diameter of 0.45 mm, a flow rate of 10 L, and a main shaft diameter of 14.99 mm as the structural scheme has better cooling performance. In addition, the hybrid compressor is compared with the electric compressor and the pulley-driven compressor under several same working conditions to evaluate the specific cooling performance of the hybrid compressor. The results of the performance comparison show that the energy efficiency ratio of the hybrid compressor is high at low speeds with direct motor drive. In hybrid mode, its best performance occurs around 3000-5000rpm. And when the speed exceeds 6000rpm, a decrease in the energy efficiency ratio occurs. Especially at the critical speed of 3000rpm when the hybrid compressor is converted from the direct motor drive mode to the hybrid mode, there will be a greater compressor power consumption compared to the pulley-driven compressor, but overall, the difference in the energy consumption ratio is within the acceptable range.

Authors: Zhu Chen , Wang Lin , Guo Wannian , Li Wei
Published: February 2025

To investigate study the leakage and diffusion characteristics of hydrogen-blended natural gas in station fields, simulation calculations and safety analyses of combustible gas diffusion, fire, and explosion for different leakage scenarios were conducted using PHAST software by DNV., A risk map for personnel in the station field was then generated. The results indicate that large-hole leaks primarily spread near the surface, while small-hole leaks rapidly disperse to higher altitudes due to factors such as flow rate, wind speed, and gravity. In the event of a jet fire, the thermal radiation at the fire's center quickly rises to its maximum value, stabilizes, and then gradually decreases to its minimum. When an explosion occurs, the affected area expands significantly with an increase in hole diameter. These findings provide guidance for equipment and pipeline placement, hazardous area zoning, and emergency response procedures following station reconstruction.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peer Leaders
Authors: Michael Anthony , Faulkner Sally , Howell Lesley
Published: February 2025

In this essay, we speculate that peer leaders who facilitate peer-led team learning (PLTL) workshops either intrinsically possess or, through the process of acting as a peer leader, develop “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,” as defined in 1989 by Stephen R. Covey. In his seminal publication, Covey suggested that individuals who are highly effective in any context, whether that be in their career, in aspects of their personal life or in any other regard are characterized by:
Being proactive;
Focusing on a clearly defined mission or outcomes;
Being good at prioritizing;
Pursuing win/win strategies;
Being excellent communicators who practice empathic listening;
Working well with a team to achieve synergistic outcomes to the mutual benefit of all; and
Appreciating the importance of making time for rest, reflection and self-improvement.
Here we posit that all 7 of these habits of highly effective people are indeed evident in the most effective peer leaders, possibly as a consequence of their experiences of PLTL.

Authors:   Assistant Professor, 2MBA, Faculty of Management Studies, CMS Business School, Jain (Deemed-to-be university), Bengaluru., Chandra Dr. Umesh
Published: February 2025

Agricultural mechanization increases productivity, but it remains prohibitively expensive for small producers. The feasibility and impact of an agricultural equipment rental model as a cost- effective alternative are assessed in this study. In surveys and interviews, it was discovered that 84% of farmers would rent equipment if it were available, with seasonal rentals being the preferable option. It is estimated that renting reduces capital costs by 60-80% and enhances farm productivity by 20-30%. Adoption is nevertheless impeded by seasonal demand, logistics, and inadequate awareness. Ensuring sustainable mechanization and rural economic development, the study suggests the implementation of digital platforms, cooperative models, and policy support to enhance accessibility.

Authors: Zainal Muttaqin Muhammad , Wulandari Esti , Djoko Nugroho Laksono
Published: February 2025

This study evaluates the costs and implementation times for flexible and rigid pavement designs for the Sampang-Ketapang road (Link 113) using the 2024 Pavement Design Manual. The flexible pavement design, using Class A aggregate with a thickness of 200 mm, costs IDR 12,804,591,492 and requires a 7-month implementation period. In contrast, the rigid pavement design, with 300 mm concrete and a flexural strength of 4.5 MPa, costs IDR 19,513,787,534 and takes 9 months to complete. While flexible pavement is more cost-efficient and quicker to implement, making it suitable for projects with budget and time constraints, rigid pavement offers greater durability and reduced maintenance over time, which may justify its higher initial cost for roads with heavy traffic. This study emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate pavement type based on traffic conditions, subgrade characteristics, and budget limitations. Flexible pavement is recommended for segments with moderate traffic and short-term construction needs, while rigid pavement is better suited for high-traffic areas requiring long-term durability. The research suggests a strategic combination of both pavement types to optimize cost and efficiency while ensuring sustainability. The findings provide practical guidance for stakeholders in road infrastructure projects, offering a framework to balance initial costs, construction timelines, and long-term maintenance to achieve optimal outcomes in road widening projects like the Sampang-Ketapang road expansion.

It was found that PLC has influenced more on summative assessment (M = 3.94, SD = 0.75), followed by formative assessment (M = 3.82, SD = 1.07), and the kinds of questions asked (M = 3.71, SD = 1.05). Also, PLCs least affected frequency of assessments (M = 3.65, SD = 0.86) and assessments by collaborative teams (M = 3.41, SD = 1.12). Paired samples t-test revealed no statistically significant difference in science teachers’ instructional practices (M = 3.71, SD = .92) and their assessment practices (M = 3.74, SD = .71), t (16) = -.629, p = .791. However, Pearson’s correlation reveals a significant high correlation between science teachers’ instructional and assessment practices (r = .851, p = 0.000).

Authors: Moukoukou Sidoine Romaric
Published: February 2025

La présente étude porte sur l’expression de la métonymie chez Henri Lopes. L’analyse de ce procédé stylistique occupe une place de choix dans l’œuvre romanesque de l’écrivain congolais, à travers l’emploi de diverses expressions métonymiques des lieux, des œuvres artistiques, des boissons, des auteurs et des œuvres littéraires, ainsi d’autres types d’expressions métonymiques bien répertoriées dans les productions littéraires lopésiennes. Tous ces nombreux emplois figurés qui sont pris dans notre corpus inscrivent les textes de fiction de Henri Lopes dans l’optique de l’esthétique de la création littéraire. Ces expressions métonymiques servent à l’embellissement du référent.
Construction mémorielle et dynamique postcoloniale dans Sanglots pour Loango de Florent Sogni Zaou
Authors: LOEMBA Rosin Francis Emerson
Published: February 2025

La Traite Négrière demeure une problématique préoccupante dans les sociétés actuelles, autant qu’elle inspire bon nombre d’écrivains à l’instar de Florent Sogni Zaou qui en a fait le motif central de son recueil de poèmes Sanglots pour Loango. Dans cet article, il s’agit de voir comment ce dernier procède à la construction d’une mémoire historique sur la base coloniale. L’invite à la mémoire historique passe d’abord par la dénonciation de cette tragédie humaine, puis par la promotion des valeurs cultures africaines et le repositionnement de l’Afrique par rapport à ce passé douloureux.
Synecdoque du corps et domaines épistémiques dans l’écriture de Mongo Beti
Authors: Miatékéla Othon-Chrysostome
Published: February 2025

Cet article se donne comme objectif d’examiner la synecdoque du corps et domaines épistémiques chez Mongo Beti, c’est-à-dire qu’elle vise à montrer le fonctionnement et à donner une polysémie, une multifonctionnalité de la synecdoque dans l’oeuvre romanesque betienne à travers l’univers forestier, social et politique. Pour matérialiser ce travail, nous nous appuyons sur deux démarches méthodologiques : l’une, sémiotique et l’autre, pragmatique. La première nous aidera à saisir la synecdoque du corps comme un signe pourvu de signifiance (Eco, 1988, p.28) ; la deuxième nous permettra de la voir comme un thème majeur entaché d’implicites, de sous-entendus (Maingeneau, 2001, p.132) et non-dits. L’examen de la problématique nous a permis d’aboutir ces résultats : la forêt est un espace hospitalier et de la vengeance ; les rapports entre la synecdoque et le corps dans les univers traditionnels et urbains ; les relations entre Essola et la prison de Mundongo.
Métaphorisants expressifs dans l’écriture poétique de Pierre Ntsemou
Authors: Monkala Dzaboua
Published: February 2025

Cette étude sur les Métaphorisants expressifs dans l’écriture poétique de Pierre Ntsemou analyse une des particularités esthétiques de la métaphore nominale. Elle s’appuie sur la méthode pragmatique, laquelle nous propose six critères entre autres : la présupposition, l’attente et le sous-entendu, l’interaction locuteur destinataire. L’étude des occurrences tirées du corpus nous fournit des données organisées en quatre parties. La première, le métaphorisant de la famille, est perçue comme une entité d’intégration sociale entre les continents. La seconde aborde des valeurs paradoxales de la femme dans la société africaine moderne. La troisième, apporte un bonheur affectif à l’homme par son corps et ses fonctions dans le mariage, le travail et la sexualité. Enfin, le métaphorisant du brouillard nous renseigne sur le rôle régulateur du climat en amour. En somme, cette diversité de métaphorisants enrichit l’expressivité de l’écriture poétique de Pierre Ntsemou.
La pratique intertextuelle dans À Rebours de Joris-Karl Huysmans
Authors: NOMBO Augustin
Published: February 2025

A rebours
de Joris-Karl Huysmans s’appréhende sur le plan scriptural et esthétique comme le lieu privilégié des interactions discursives et de toutes formes d’interculturalité. La textualité n’a de sens que dans le rapprochement de l’écriture et la lecture, autant qu’au déploiement du discours pictural et artistique. Ainsi, nous nous proposons d’étudier dans cet article ce phénomène textuel à partir de deux relations de coprésence, à savoir, la référence et la citation. Puis, nous en dégagerons les significations, en montrant justement en quoi la pratique intertextuelle serait, chez Joris-Karl Huysmans, une quête à la fois spirituelle, intellectuelle et artistique.
Écriture, brièveté et humeur dans le Bloc-notes de François Mauriac
Authors: ILOKI Bellarmin Etienne
Published: February 2025

:
Depuis la révolution, on le sait, journalisme et polémique vont de pair. On doit notamment à Voltaire d'avoir uni polémique et actualité, « discours à chaud ». Mais, c'est après 1789 que le discours sur les controverses politiques passe par le journal. Et Mauriac donne, dans son Bloc-notes, une couleur d'époque d'une implacable exactitude. Il prend volontiers pour sujet des polémiques d'actualité. Or le discours polémique est un discours ému qui nous révèle une Mauriac passionnée (humeur pitié, joie, haine, etc.), qui souligne le caractère spontané et sincère d'un moi qui s'indigne. C’est pourquoi le Bloc-notes apparaît comme une scène qui contrarie, par nature, la bonne foi et la raison. Cet article s’emploie à montrer comment l'affectivité de l'auteur commande le discours et qu'il s'y engage personnellement pour parler directement au lecteur, en se révélant, et en s'avouant.
Figuration féminine et sexualité hors-normes dans l’écriture de J. Malonga
Authors: Antsue Jean Bruno
Published: February 2025

:
L’objet de notre texte porte sur « Figuration féminine et sexualité hors norme dans l’écriture romanesque de J. Malonga ». L’objectif d’une telle étude est de montrer que la sexualité figurant dans la mosaïque des thèmes abordés par l’écrivain congolais est perçue comme une perversion et une négativité.  L’objectif de notre étude est de montrer que la pratique de l’adultère dans la fiction étudiée n’est pas normative et devient un site de déconstruction dans la vie sociale. En effet, la belle Hakoula, héroïne du roman, milite pour un érotisme prohibé par la législation. L’approche thématique nous paraît plus intéressante d’aborder avec pertinence notre sujet et d’aboutir aux résultats.
