Published: December 2024

A necessidade humana de manipular objetos em ambientes desafiadores levou ao desenvolvimento de dispositivos capazes de superar tais desafios como, por exemplo, mãos eletromecânicas. Seguindo esta vertente, criou-se uma réplica anatômica de mão usando impressão 3D com plástico PLA (Ácido Polilático). A essa estrutura, integrou-se, no antebraço, servomotores MG996R com força de 11,8 . Para realizar flexão e extensão dos dedos, foram usados fios de nylon de alta resistência conectados aos motores, os quais emulam tendões humanos. A mobilidade do polegar foi habilitada utilizando-se um micro servomotor, o qual trabalha em conjunto com o servomotor do antebraço. A rotação da mão ocorre no antebraço, por meio de um servomotor capaz de realizar uma rotação de até 180 graus. O controle dos servomotores é realizado via Arduino e as instruções de movimentação do braço são fornecidas por meio de um algoritmo de 'hand tracking', implementado em Python.

Authors: Klyuev R.V.
Published: December 2024

The article presents the results of studying the process parameters of ball mills at a mining and processing plant during the development and implementation of a complete factorial experiment. A methodology for conducting this experiment has been developed that takes into account the specific features of mining production. The main process factors have been established, i.e. productivity, hardness of the ore fed for grinding, density of the classifier discharge, which have the greatest impact on power consumption. An analysis of the input parameters for the grinding process was carried out, the ranges of their variation were determined, a planning matrix was built, the coefficients of the linear regression equation were calculated, and their significance was assessed. Along with this, a transition was made from code values of variables to natural values, and a mathematical model was designed, with the help of which it is possible to calculate and forecast power consumption depending on the most significant process parameters. The obtained results allow to control the operating modes of the mills at mining and processing plants in on-line mode and are planned to be included in the automated process control systems of the enterprises.

Published: December 2024

The main purpose of the study was to analyze the quality of laser grid shape detection in various ranges of illumination intensity for industrial application in conditions of underground and open-pit mining and on production sites. In particular, the dependences were established of the illumination level effect on the quality of the laser grid shape detection with the machine vision. Images were used as the study objects, while the subject was the machine vision algorithms and the values of the qualitative shape detection parameters. As a result, the authors have identified the conditions for the most effective shape detection of a laser grid projected onto the surface. In accordance with the developed methodology, the result of a series of laboratory tests was obtained with different light discreteness. In case of insufficient value of the parameter for a group of pixels, erosion and dilation operations were used, allowing to change the parameters of adjacent pixels to the values that would ensure the shape detection. The results are obtained in the form of qualitative dependence of the laser grid cells shape detection on illumination in laboratory conditions. The conclusion is made about the optimal illumination range, at which the quality of the laser grid shape detection is stable. The obtained results can be applied in various industries, including the mining industry, when measuring the objects volume with machine vision in combination with a laser grid.
Methodology for determining the optimal parameters of a rock release trench in the combined mining system for gently dipping deposits
Authors: Antipin Yu.G. , Smirnov A.A. , Nikitin I.V. , Solomein Yu.M.
Published: December 2024

A specific feature of combined mining systems in conditions of flat deposits of medium thickness is the need to form an ore release trench from the interchamber pillar in the underlying rocks. The volume of the release trench is one of the main factors affecting the efficiency of the combined mining system. Reducing the slope angle and the height of the release trench, on the one hand, allows reducing operating costs for breaking, releasing and delivering ore, caving of overlying rocks, on the other hand, leads to deterioration in ore extraction indicators. Determining the optimal parameters of the release trench depending on the width of the interchamber pillar is an urgent scientific and technical task. To solve it, a methodology has been developed for assessing the efficiency and determining the optimal parameters of the rock release trench based on the profit criterion per 1 ton of the recovered balance reserves, including the established functional dependencies of ore extraction indicators and the operating costs for the main technological processes of ore mining on the thickness and the dip angle of the deposit, the width of the interchamber pillar, the slope angle and the height of the release trench. It has been established that the optimal slope angle and height of the release trench with an interchamber pillar width of 8–18 m are 65° and 4.8–16.1 m, with a width of 18–20 m – 60° and 13.2–15.1 m, respectively.
Development of approaches to calculation of the stress-strain state parameters of the rock mass based on the results of deformation measurements at the borehole bottom
Authors: Semenova I.E. , Amosov P.V. , Kuznetcov N.N. , Nekrasov V.A.
Published: December 2024

To ensure safe conditions for mining of mineral deposits, information on the stress-strain state of the rock masses is necessary. There are a few methods to obtain this type of information. One of them, which has found wide application at mining enterprises, consists in using the characteristic of elastic restoration of the shape and dimensions of the rock mass element when its connection with the main mass is forcedly broken (the doorstopper method). For its correct realization, a mathematical tool is required that allows the transition from stresses at the borehole bottom to stresses in the rock mass without the use of empirical coefficients. The paper presents the results of developing a mathematical tool to calculate the stresses acting inside the rock mass and determined based on the doorstopper method. The possibility of using empirical coefficients (the concentration coefficient and the axial stress influence coefficient) obtained during long-term in-situ and laboratory studies for the transition from stresses at the borehole bottom (flat stress state) to stresses inside the rock mass (volumetric stress state) is shown. An approach for calculating the components of the stress tensor in the bottomhole plane of three mutually perpendicular boreholes through the deformation values of a four-sensor socket is proposed. The approach for transition from the directions and magnitudes of stresses on the measurement plane to the direction and magnitude of the main stresses inside the rock mass is given.

Authors: Gilyazetidnov R.A. , Kuleshova L.S. , Mukhametshin V.V.
Published: December 2024

The problem of reliable calculation and reasonable interpretation of various productivity coefficient forecasting models is complicated by the presence of hidden patterns between geological and field parameters. The object of the study was the carbonate reservoirs of the deposits of the South Tatar arch, the data on which were obtained as a result of generalization and integration of the results of operating more than 700 wells for various purposes. Twenty geological and physical parameters were identified for the study, using which a discriminant analysis was successfully carried out. Multidimensional regression modeling was carried out for three selected groups of homogeneous objects. The simulation results have shown the efficiency of complex differentiation and clustering of geological and field information, which is based on the hierarchical structuring of parameters, which makes it possible, even with a minimum amount of data at a relevant level, to successfully identify the main trends in the influence of model parameters on the productivity coefficient, expanding the scope of their application to solve a range of basic and indirect problems of rational development of oil fields.
Towards the prospects of refining the Sadon deposits
Authors: Golik V.I. , Titova A.V.
Published: December 2024

The article discusses the urgent problem of forecasting the magnitude of rock pressure based on the identified patterns of changes in the state of the rock mass during man-made intervention in the process of underground mining. The research methodology combines methods for establishing correlations between the properties and disturbance of rocks, determining criteria for assessing the strength of rock masses and identifying the critical stress values. The problem of refining Sadon deposits while ensuring the stability of rocks and the safety of workers is formulated. A reference is given on the geological structure of the deposits with details of the conditions of the promising Jimidon deposit. The results of measuring rock fracturing, elastic wave velocity in rocks and rock properties are presented. The natural interdependence of the compressive strength and wave propagation velocity has been established, as well as the degree of elastic deformations and porosity. Information is provided on the strength and the structural degradation of the most representative rocks of the field. It is confirmed that the adhesion of rocks increases according to the parabolic law from the minimum value at the hole boundaries to the maximum value in the undisturbed rock mass, on the basis of which the stability of rock outcrops is assessed. A typification of rocks with differentiation by category is proposed and approximate values of stresses and displacements of particles are indicated. A dependence graph of the zone of inelastic deformations on the depth of the excavation is constructed differentially for rocks of different stability. It is shown that the development of new technologies with leaching needs a geo-mechanical justification. It is noted that the results of the study can be applied in underground mining of mineral deposits. It is concluded that resuming or activation of mining operations is possible with the modernization of the theory and practice of the rock mass management.

Published: December 2024

Relevance of research. The efficiency of mining and mineral processing is determined by the correct selection strategy for equipment and technology in the production process. Modern trends in the development of machinery, equipment and technological systems are manifested in the increasing complexity of the mechanical design and multifunctionality of mining equipment. For this reason, the focus of new designs is shifting to a more detailed study of the product performance during the development stages prior to full-scale testing, primarily to reduce the time and cost of product development and increase the chances for the machine to reach the market. This provides additional opportunities to improve the design and manufacturing of mining equipment by creating and utilising feedback while extensively applying testing and diagnostic procedures.

Methods. A complex approach that included a system scientific analysis and generalization of previously published studies was used in addressing the tasks set.

Results. Modelling and calculation of the operator's cabin for a mining excavator has been performed in the COMPAS-3D software application of the APM FEM System. 'The calculation core of the APM FEM System for the COMPAS-3D is the “Finite Element Software System APM Structure3D” software tool.

Practical value. This approach can be implemented in the development of promising designs of operator cabins for mining transport machines.

Published: December 2024

Unmanned aerial vehicles have been actively used in the mining industry over the past decade to perform various tasks ranging from mineral exploration to reclamation of industrial areas. The study focuses on the tasks of the aeromagnetic survey, mine surveying and monitoring of tailings dumps. Using unmanned aerial vehicles offers the advantages of increased efficiency, reduced operational costs and risks, as well as improved quality of real-time data. Examples are presented of the successful use of unmanned aerial vehicles to create digital terrain models, to map geological structures and to monitor the condition of slopes and mine workings. High accuracy and efficiency of data acquisition using modern photogrammetry technologies and software are noted, which helps to optimize the planning procedures and ensure a higher level of operational safety. Despite a significant progress in using unmanned aerial vehicles, there is a need to further explore their application in more complex tasks, such as integration of digital model data into production processes and development of methods to be used in underground conditions.
Information system for decision support in the eco-investment approach to restoration of the natural ecosystems disrupted during development of geo-resources
Authors: Mesyats S.P. , Petrov A.A.
Published: December 2024

A conceptual approach to the restoration of natural ecosystems is to use the idea of adaptive systematic organization of ecosystems, since the driving force of evolution is the purposeful adaptation of ecosystems based on feedback, oriented towards increasing their viability and sustainability. The Mining Institute of the KSC of RAS has justified a methodology and developed a technology for restoring natural ecosystems disrupted during geo-resources development, in accordance with the principle of their self-organization, the creation of a biologically active environment. Formation of a biologically active environment as a result of establishing a seeded cereal phytocenosis without applying a fertile layer is the essence of an eco-investment approach, which consists in increasing the energy potential of the system-forming function of biota to increase the rate of restoration of natural ecosystems. A decision support information system has been developed for an eco-investment approach to restoring natural ecosystems disrupted during the development of geo-resources based on the principle of information unity of natural and technical systems, which allows us to consider natural ecosystems as information-driven, and environmental conditions as the controlling factors. The information system integrates a set of software data processing modules to monitor the dynamics of the natural ecosystems restoration at all the stages of the soil biological organization and implements the interaction of functional modules (databases, algorithms and data processing software, geoinformation components), linking them with unified information flows, which ensures the efficiency and quality of management decisions taken based on the ecoinvestment approach to restoration of the natural ecosystems disrupted during the development of geo-resources.
Actual problems of coal accumulations ignition in rock dumps
Authors: Gendler S.G. , Bratskih A.S.
Published: December 2024

The article emphasizes the relevance of the problem of spontaneous fires in coal dumps. Despite significant labor, environmental, and economic losses associated with spontaneous combustion, companies often overlook preventive measures. The study was done through a systematic analysis of research publications published on the Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar and Elibrary databases, as well as in dedicated journals and academic resources. However, analysis shows that preventing spontaneous combustion is more effective compared to dealing with its consequences. The development of effective preventive measures is only possible with an understanding of the combined impact of factors influencing the occurrence and development of spontaneous fires. A broad experimental and theoretical database has already been created that describes the effects of individual factors on the development of spontaneous fires. However, there is still no methodology to assess the combined effects of the impact factors. Further research is planned to develop a mathematical model for assessing the combined effect of meteorological and mining-geological factors on the development of spontaneous fires.

Published: December 2024

The paper discusses the prospects of improving the efficiency of copper ore concentration processes based on the use of new flotation agents and optimization of the process parameters. The relevance of the research is explained by the need to improve the technology of copper raw material processing in conditions of the ore grade deterioration and the increasing strictness of the environmental requirements. The objective of the work is to develop a set of measures to intensify the flotation concentration of copper ores based on innovative agents and optimal process modes. The research methodology included analysis of the current state and challenges of the copper industry, laboratory and pilot tests of the flotation agents, mathematical modelling and optimisation of the flotation parameters, feasibility study of the proposed solutions. As the result, it has been established that application of new selective collectors, foaming agents and depressors makes it possible to increase the copper recovery into the concentrate by 1.5-3% with simultaneous increase of its quality by 1-2%. Optimal ranges of the ore grinding sizes, the agents consumption, and the flotation time are justified using the kinetic models of flotation. It is shown that implementation of the developed solutions will ensure an increase in copper recovery into commercial products by 1-1.5% and improvement of the economic effect by 5-10% depending on the characteristics of raw materials and the market conditions.
Agreement, Case and Definiteness in Balkan Existential Constructions
Authors: Frasson Alberto
Published: December 2024

This paper discusses agreement and definiteness effects in existential constructions in Balkan existentials constructions. I build on the restriction on definiteness properties of existential pivots known as definiteness effect: post-copular pivots in existentials have to be indefinite. In Balkan languages, the contrast is also signaled by the use of a dedicated copula exhibiting singular neuter agreement. I argue that existential pivots are interpreted as semantic objects, as evidenced by the assignment of non-nominative case. I propose that existential copulas take two nominals: the post-copular pivot and a pre-copular null expletive, which behaves as the subject of the construction.

Published: December 2024

Im Generationswechsel blicken Unternehmer*innen oftmals kritisch auf die nächste Generation, weil sie die eigene Werthaltung infrage zu stellen scheint. Die Nachfolger*innen hingegen tun gut daran, ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen, der zu ihrer Zeit passt und ihrer Persönlichkeit entspricht. Generativität kann dabei Brücken bauen. Denn das tiefe Interesse am Wohlergehen der jeweilig anderen Generation ermöglicht Spielräume, vom eigenen Denken Abstand zu nehmen und sich auf die Position der anderen Generation einzulassen.
Actinomicosis apendicular simulando una tumoración intraabdominal. Reporte de caso
Authors: Rendón-Mejía Norman Alejandro , Flores-González Natanael , Sandoval-Campa Ernesto
Published: December 2024

Introducción. La actinomicosis abdominal es una enfermedad rara, causada por un microorganismo grampositivo anaerobio, que afecta principalmente cavidades abiertas. Puede llegar a afectar en un 64 % de los casos el intestino delgado. Se caracteriza por la formación de abscesos y fístulas. Las manifestaciones clínicas son inespecíficas, pero una vez instaurada la enfermedad, puede manifestarse de manera similar a una lesión tumoral.
Caso clínico. Paciente femenina de 85 años quien ingresó al área de urgencias por dolor abdominal de una semana de evolución, con localización principal en fosa ilíaca derecha, acompañado de náuseas y vómitos. A la exploración presentaba signos positivos apendiculares, con leucocitosis en sus laboratorios y cambios sugestivos de apendicitis y tiflitis en la tomografía computarizada.
Resultados. Fue ingresada a laparotomía exploratoria donde se encontró marcada inflamación de aspecto tumoral a nivel del ciego y colon ascendente, con cambios fibrino-purulentos, apéndice cecal en estado de necrosis licuefactiva con pérdida de su morfología y perforación de su base. Se practicó hemicolectomía derecha, procedimiento de Hartmann y derivación de estoma de íleon distal. Tuvo una evolución posoperatoria tórpida y falleció.
Conclusión. La actinomicosis abdominal es una enfermedad con incidencia muy baja en nuestro medio. Su diagnóstico es un reto, tanto por las manifestaciones clínicas inespecíficas como por el alto porcentaje de falsos negativos a la hora del diagnóstico. Se deben descartar otras causas de abdomen agudo antes de sospechar una actinomicosis abdominal.

As a neglected tropical disease, dengue significantly impacts global health. World Health Organization data shows that approximately 390 million people are infected with the dengue virus each year, with 96 million cases manifesting clinically. Various innovations have been pursued to control dengue virus infections, one of which is the use of Wolbachia, a bacterium with high potential to address this issue. Wolbachia can reduce and even halt dengue virus transmission by mosquitoes by inhibiting the virus's development and replication within the Aedes aegypti mosquito. This study explores the effectiveness of Wolbachia in reducing dengue incidence across different regions. The method used in this study follows the PRISMA guidelines. Data sources include PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane, yielding 585 studies screened and narrowed down to four studies meeting inclusion criteria: one study in Malaysia, one in Brazil, and two in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Each study’s risk of bias was assessed using RoB2 and ROBINS-I according to its methodology. Success rates were evaluated based on the prevalence of Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes and the reduction in dengue incidence over a defined period. The results show that Wolbachia prevalence can reach 100%, with the highest reduction in dengue incidence reaching up to 77%. This outcome indicates that Wolbachia is an effective tool for controlling dengue.

Published: December 2024

Vigorous seedlings guarantee satisfactory production in the forward stages of the vegetation period. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of bio-based rearing water of two mosquito species (Culiseta sp. and Culex sp.) on tomato germination, emergence, and seedling quality. For this purpose, two distinct larval-rearing waters (LRW)(with diverse larval densities), and fry food-applied water were used as bio-priming agents. The findings revealed that using bio-based rearing water could enhance the vigor of tomato seeds. All Culex sp. derived LRWs had a shorter mean germination time than the control group. One Culex sp. derived larval rearing water treatment resulted in the shortest mean germination time (4.35 days), whereas one Culiseta sp. derived larval rearing water treatment resulted in the longest (6.20 days). There were no statistically significant differences in stem length but significant differences in plant length. Plant length was shorter in larval rearing water and fry food-applied water than in the control. The stem diameters of plants primed with larval rearing water were generally wider than the control. According to analyses of the plant length, stem length, and stem diameter measurements, the larval rearing water and fry food-applied water treatments may have had a reductive influence on plant length but provided significant support for thicker seedlings, which are more beneficial for seedlings. Other germination and growth characteristics (vigor index of germination, emergence percentage, mean time of emergence, vigor index of emergence, plant length, stem length, leaf width, leaf length, stem fresh weight, stem dry weight, root dry weight) did not show significant variation among treatments. Using larval rearing water as a bio-priming agent in agriculture offers several benefits. Larval rearing water enhances seed germination and vigor due to its possibly rich nutrient content and bioactive compounds, promoting faster and more uniform germination. It is an eco-friendly and cost-effective alternative to chemical treatments, supporting sustainable agricultural practices.

The features of restoration of plant communities formed in agrogenically transformed territories have been
studied. During the period 2006–2023 observed restoration successions in the territory of the Pritagil zone of the
Middle Urals in four areas represented by deposits. The research was carried out using direct observations of
communities. Based on a set of characteristics of the coenotic structure (number of groups, their ratio in terms of
participation in species richness, composition and number of leading groups, dominant groups), it is shown that it
is more dynamic and reflects the internal processes of community development within individual successional
stages, distinguished taking into account the life form dominants and features of the species structure. Within the
studied communities there are 16 phytocenotic groups. In some areas in different years, from 11 to 14 groups are
represented. Based on the share of participation in species richness, leading coenotic groups are distinguished with
a share of participation of more than 10% and others with a share of participation of less than 10%. The most sig-
nificant differences in the cenotic structure are observed among the leading groups. At the initial stages of fallow
development, a group of weed species dominates in the communities. During succession, the dominant position is
occupied by edge-meadow species. Meadow species act as codominants. Further, in the presence of forest com-
munities in the environment, the appearance of a second codominant was noted: a group of edge-forest species. It
has been established that of the communities of the four study territories, the phytocenoses of areas A1 (during the
study period, the communities are characterized as transitional-cereal and early meadow) and A2 (young meadow)
are the most dynamically developing. In the remaining areas (A3 and A5), where mature meadow communities
are represented, the coenotic structure is stable. Changes in the coenotic structure of the studied communities co-
incide with the stages identified by the life form of dominants and the species structure of communities only par-
tially. The cenotic structure is more dynamic and reflects the internal processes of community development within
individual successional stages.

An analysis and mapping of manifestations of extremism is presented based on the open electronic resource
“List of organizations and individuals in relation to which there is information about their involvement in extrem-
ist activities or terrorism” of the Federal Service for Financial Monitoring (Rosfinmonitoring). The List data
makes it possible to analyze the gender and age composition of these individuals, establish their localization and
concentration in the regions of Russia, and sort the list of persons by type of crime: involvement in extremist
crimes (EC) and terrorist crimes (TC).
Methods of digital humanities, in-depth structuring, attribute analysis and mapping of data in the form of
point objects were used.
The study showed that the vast majority of individuals on the List are involved in crimes of a terrorist nature; a
high level of involvement of women in these crimes was noted, and the age groups most susceptible to radicalization
were identified; mapping of the List data shows the concentration of risk points in the south of the country, mainly in
the North Caucasus, in the Republic of Dagestan; The distribution of risk points on the map clearly demonstrates the
areas where measures to prevent extremism and terrorism are most needed. The study is relevant from the point of
view of predictive analytics and prevention of extremism and terrorism; a conclusion was made about the feasibility
of developing a geographic information system based on Rosfinmonitoring data to conduct spatial analysis in con-
junction with a comprehensive assessment of the socio-economic and ethnopolitical situation in the regions.

Este trabajo plantea como hipótesis que las 'nuevas tecnologías están reconfigurando el mapa cognitivo y social de nuestro paisaje humano. Estos son dos aspectos que creemos necesario investigar: la profundización del estudio del campo cognitivo y la condición social de la tecnología, que en America latina es de desigualdad y de dependencia. Si prestamos atención al aspecto cognitivo podemos hablar de un salto cualitativo que amplia el espectro cultural a nuevos paisajes antropo-tecno-lógicos ya que la lógica de las máquinas, puesta en vinculación con nuestras mentes, ha producido nuevas e inesperadas conexiones a nivel neurológico.Si prestamos atención a lo social, hay que hacerse preguntas necesarias: ¡cómo se reconfiguran las nuevas identidades sociales? ¿Cómo se reladonan los consumos imaginarios con las actuales experiencias de los sujetos frente a las pantallas? ¿Cómo se construyen nuevas formas de memoria cultural? ¿Cómo subsanar las diferencias socioeconómicas y las pasibilidades de acceso igualitario a las nuevas tecnologías?¿Cómo pensar alternativas que acorten la brecha con la educación formal, aún sujeta a la cultura de la letra?En fin ... cómo pensar -en y desde America latina- la hegemonía audiovisual, sin desestimar su fuerte potencialidad cognitiva e ideológica en un continente donde no hay sujetos que no puedan adquirir nuevas competencias, sino sujetos a quienes se debe garantizar el acceso a los bienes culturales.

Acerca del cuerpo como categoría analítica
Authors: Boria Adriana
Published: December 2024

El concepto de cuerpo se ha transformado mediante diversas operaciones teóricasen una categoría analítica que ha permitido cuestionar pero al mismo tiempo afirmarel alcance de la noción de sujeto y de subjetividad. Con ello hacemos referencia ala potencialidad de un concepto que nos permite explicarnos fenómenos y problemascomplejos. Asimismo, esta operatoria es parte de la tendencia general en las cienciashumanas y sociales contemporáneas: el desarrollo del trabajo interdisciplinar. Se hablaasí de una teoría del cuerpo, que involucra aportes que van desde la filosofía, la sociología,la antropología, la semiótica, la teoría política, los estudios de género, hasta laeducación física. Tales reflexiones se sitúan a partir de los años sesenta y se corresponden,a grandes rasgos, con el cuestionamiento a las nociones de identidad y de sujeto.

Authors: Muñiz Elsa
Published: December 2024

En la perfección se encuentra la «verdad corporal» de mujeres y hombres; y en las mujeres,la belleza es la verdad y la «norma». Labúsqueda de la perfección pasa por diversosdispositivos corporales entre los que cumpleun papel singular la cirugía cosmética, dondelo más significativo es su pretensión de normalizarel cuerpo de hombres y mujeres apelandoa ideales de belleza definidos desde losmedios masivos de comunicación o desde losquirófanos de los cirujanos. El auge de la cirugíacosmética en nuestros días obedece tambiéna una concepción del cuerpo humanocomo el espacio de construcción de la subjetividady de la agencia de los individuos comoparte de su hechura identitaria. La búsquedade la belleza y la perfección corporal, en particularpara las mujeres, está asociada a la obtencióndel éxito, a la posibilidad de ascenso social,al logro de mejores condiciones de vida ytal vez a conseguir un buen empleo o unbuen matrimonio.

Legal translation has a privileged position in the language industry these days, yet machine translation, however significant the advances in technology (neural translation, deep learning, AI, large language models) and despite the massive digitization of normative texts and case law, seems to perform less well precisely in this field. The aim of our research is to illustrate this dynamic through a case study and to investigate the reasons for it.
From Clicks to Curiosity: Exploring Self-Directed Information Seeking as a Behavioral Manifestation of Curiosity

To expand their knowledge and satisfy their intellectual curiosity, people need to engage in self-directed information seeking. However, curiosity research often relies on experimental tasks that explicitly prompt information seeking instead of capturing participants’ self-initiated exploratory behaviors. The present study aimed to combine aspects of experimental curiosity research with more naturalistic exploration methods by introducing a novel experimental set-up that captured self-directed information seeking as a more naturalistic behavioral measure of curiosity. In a preregistered online study (N = 799), participants freely explored a hypertext on a historical topic while their self-directed information seeking (i.e., clicks on hyperlinks and reading time) was captured with log files. Participants then completed a knowledge test in which they also reported their confidence in their answers and their curiosity about learning the correct answers, similar to commonly used curiosity tasks. Additionally, participants’ trait curiosity was measured with a questionnaire before they read the hypertext. Using mixed-effects regression models, we found that simply choosing to seek additional information (click on a hyperlink) did not predict subsequent curiosity ratings, whereas the extent of engagement in information seeking (reading time) did. Moreover, trait curiosity moderated the relationship between confidence and state curiosity, with highly trait curious individuals maintaining higher state curiosity under low confidence, unlike those with low trait curiosity. This study presents a promising way to assess self-directed information-seeking behavior as a manifestation of curiosity and provides a comprehensive perspective on the dynamic ways in which curiosity is sparked and satisfied.
Building Sustainable Performance for Small and Medium Enterprises in Bungoma County, Kenya: The Role of Technological Innovations Strategies
Authors: Khadiakala Brian Itolondo , Muathe Stephen Makau
Published: December 2024

The global economy's changes have led to enterprises developing strategies to adapt, resulting in gradual market share reductions, sales volume decreases, and overall size reductions. Kenyan SMEs experienced a 58% decrease in sales revenue and 75% employee reductions from 2017-2018, followed by a 59% decline in sales and profit growth in 2022. Therefore, the current project investigated the effect of technological innovation strategies; which are product innovation, process innovation, marketing innovations and organization innovations on performance of SMEs in Bungoma County, Kenya. The study used resource-based view, dynamic capabilities theory, theory of innovation and technology organization environment framework. The study embraced descriptive research design. The target population was 4,264 SMEs in Bungoma County. Stratified and random sampling techniques were used as a sampling technique. A sample size of 366 was determined using Yamane formula of 1967. Primary data was collected using a structured questionnaire. The response rate was seventy six percent. The study established a positive and significant relationship between product innovations, process innovations, marketing innovations and organizational innovations on the firm performance of SMEs Bungoma County. The study recommends that the enterprises should developing products that address specific market gaps, prioritize adopting technology-driven solutions that streamline operations, reduce costs, increase productivity and leverage digital platforms to reach a broader customer base and empower employees through skill development and training, increases effectiveness. The study recommends further research on metrics beyond technological innovation strategies and firm performance, as well as exploring counties beyond Bungoma County.
