PERANCANGAN PROTOTYPE PENDETEKSI KONDISI RODA GIGI SERTA MONITORING ARUS DAN TEGANGAN PADA MOTOR WESEL T84M
Authors: Rafsanjani Mifzam Fahmi , Winjaya Fathurrozi , Darmawan Arief , Diah Mariana
Published: May 2024

The point machine is very important for changes in the direction of the train, which affects the service and safety of the train. Checking the T84M point machine manually is time consuming and human error prone. Maintenance includes checking gears, current, and motor voltage. Gear damage and currents and voltages exceeding tolerance limits cause performance problems in point machines. This study aims to create an innovative prototype for early fault detection and easier maintenance. Gear vibration data processed using the ADXL345 sensor with the FFT method shows a significant difference. Normal gears have amplitude <1066 m/s², wear ≥1066 m/s², broken gears have ≥1960 m/s². Testing of the PZEM-004T sensor was satisfactory, with a current error of 0.01% and a voltage error of 0.004%. This sensor is suitable for monitoring the motor output current and voltage. Sensor readings during monitoring of motor current and voltage reveal patterns during operation.

Cthulhu Mythos: History of H.P. Lovecraft’s Monstrous Presence in Popular Culture
Authors: Pevčíková Jozefa
Published: May 2024

The aim of this paper is to analyse various forms of the so-called Cthulhu Mythos and describe specific shifts in reception and reflexion of H.P. Lovecraft’s legacy in contemporary culture. The opening part of the paper introduces H.P. Lovecraft as the author of weird fiction, cosmic horror and the philosophy of cosmicism, and corrects common misconceptions regarding the Cthulhu Mythos. Then, the semiotic versioning of three versions of the Cthulhu Mythos is explained and all three versions are further analysed. Version 1.0 of the Mythos includes Lovecraft’s legacy, works of the authors from the Lovecraft Circle, but also August Derleth’s interpretations of cosmic horror and works of the next generation of authors that emerged after Lovecraft’s death or were discovered and guided by Derleth. It’s a complex set of terminology, ideas, philosophies, plot devices and narratological specifications that is, as is further explained, wrongly interpreted as a fictional mythology. Version 2.0 includes all the works created under the label of ‘Lovecraftian’ or ‘cosmic’ horror, all transmedia adaptations, influences, and pop cultural additions where the influence of the original Mythos can be traced and is either explicitly admitted or just implied. Finally, Cthulhu Mythos 3.0 is a version of the Mythos that acknowledges the existence of the previous versions, yet approaches them through a specific self-reflective, self-critical lens and is more focused on intertextual play and metacommentaries on these previous versions than on expanding them.
INTERVENTION PROCEDURE IN DRAWING CLASSES FOR NON-ART UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: THE IMPACT OF ASSIGNMENT REDESIGN ON STUDENTS’ PERFORMANCE
Authors:   Prince of Songkla University International College, Hat Yai, Thailand, Curcic Dimitrije
Published: May 2024

Drawing allows students to actively engage with the topic they are learning, as opposed to only taking knowledge passively (Abdullah et.al., 2023). The endeavor to teach fundamental freehand drawing techniques to non-art university students poses distinct challenges necessitating the adaptation of specific instructional methodologies. This study investigates the impact of assignment design as a part of instructional methods in a freehand drawing course tailored for non-art students and its consequent effects on student performance. Employing a multifaceted data collection methodology involving intervention, post-intervention analysis, and self-reflection questionnaires about students' perceptions of the learning process, the study seeks to elucidate which interventions in instructional procedure are efficient in improving students’ overall performance. The study cohort comprises 63 second-year students drawn from diverse faculties at Prince of Songkla University in Hat Yai, Thailand, encompassing eleven students from the first semester and fifty-two from the second semester of the academic year 2023. Through visual analysis post-intervention, informed by standardized rubric score criteria, the findings evince a significant correlation between assignment themes and student performance. Furthermore, discernible enhancements across various assignment categories suggest a marked improvement in learning outcomes attributable to the redesigned assignments implemented in the second semester compared to their counterparts in the first semester of the academic year 2023.

Studies on the Flora of the Pakasura Hills (Hulical Drug R.F.) in the Nilgiri District, Madras State
Authors: Sebastine K. M.
Published: May 2024

The Pakasura Hills remained botanically unexplored so far and four seasonal explorations were completed during 1957-58. The slopes of the mountain which reach an altitude of 2,097 M. show zonations in their vegetation represented by the Southern Tropical Thom Type, Tropical Secondary Dry Deciduous Type, Nilgiri Sub Tropical Evergreen Type and Wet Temperate Type of Forests. Some of the plants introduced on the Nilgiris have become naturalised and run wild adding new elements to its floristic composition. The collections from this area include species of plants which are not recorded by Fyson and Gamble for the Nilgiris though some of them are reported by the latter as occurring in the Western Ghats in a very general way.

Authors: Puri G. S. , Patil R. M.
Published: May 2024

The deciduous vegetation grows in various ghats and hills in the Poona district. The present note describes the type from the Katraj ghats, on the south of Poona at a distance of 6 miles.The area consists of flat plateau at the top, eastern and western slopes and narrow valleys through which small rivulets flow during monsoons. The mountains are formed of trap rock, the strata of which dip towards east. Thus the eastern slopes are gentle with better developed soil but the western escarpments are steep comparatively dry with shallow soil. Seepage water is seen on eastern slope during monsoon. Alluvial soil deposits in the valley. The average rainfall is about 27".The following vegetation types are described:(I) Top of the plateau: They are mainly covered with Boswellia serrata which is regenerating profusely where biotic interference is excluded and the soil is dry shallow and gravelly.(II) The western slopes: These slopes bear a low type of forest. The following trees are common-Boswellia serrata, Lannea coromandelica, Diospyros montana and Largerstroemia parviflora. Shrubs-Acacia sp., Lantana camara, Zizyphus xylopyrus, Rhus mysorensis, Flacourtia, Cipadessa baccifera, Gymnosporia spinosa and Securinega sp.Herbs-Tridax procumbens, Leucas sp., Cocculus sp., Polyzygus tuberosus, Sida sp., Arisaema sp., Desmodium sp., Acanthospermum hispidum, Celosia sp. etc.This vegetation is also affected adversely by the biotic interference since lopping, coppicing and grazing are prevalent.(III) Eastern slope (top portion) ; It bears a community of Boswellia serrata-Diospyros montana-Lannea coromandelica on dry shallow and rocky soil. The commonest shrubs are Acacia sp., Zizyphus xylopyrus, Lantana camara, Cryptolepis buchanani, Woodfordia fruticosa, Cissuspallida and Securinega sp.The common herbaceous vegetation consists ot Locculus sp., Leucas sp., Tridax procumbens, Curculigo sp., Polyzygus tuberosus, etc.(IV) Eastern slope (lower portion): It bears a community of Tectona grandis-Lannea coromandelica-Diospyros-Boswellia serrata.Teak and Lannea coromandelica are predominant on the alluvial deposits towards the valley and higher up. Diospyros sp. and Boswellia become prominent in dry trap soil. Diospyros on alluvial soils is heavily infected by Viscum. But incidence of the parasite decreases in trees which are growing on dry trap rocks elsewhere in the area. Commonest shrubs in the community are Acacia sp., Clerodendron serratum, Zizyphus xylopyrus, Cissus pallida and Lantana camara. Commonest herbs are Leucas sp., Tridax procumbens, Hemidesmus indicus, Curcuma montana, Cocculus sp., Polyzygus tuberosus, Trichodesma sp., Crotalaria sp., Indigofera sp., Celosia sp., Aerva javanica, etc.Various stages of succession are seen in the area and regeneration of teak, Boswellta, Lagerstroemia. Lannea is common on different types of soils.

Bibliographical Review on the Botanical Studies in Tripura
Authors: Deb D. B.
Published: May 2024

This paper "Bibliographical Review on the Botanical studies in Tripura" presents most probably all the literature that refers to the plan life in Tripura. No work of any appreciable size was ever published on any aspect of plants in this territory. In absence of such a work the author had to go through the chronological narratives on the rulers of the land, historical accounts, administrative reports, and litirary publications on Tripura for materials on botanical aspects. Such a search resulted in finding out several interesting records of Tripura plants. All these isolated references, however trivial may be, have been referred to in this paper. The views expressed by the author in course of the review of references, are based on his constant field and herbarium study on the vegetation and flora of Tripura for five years. For this reason he could not agree with the views expressed by the casual observers on the vegetation of Tripura.

Evaluation of an Automated Wall-mounted Far Ultraviolet-C Light Technology for Continuous or Intermittent Decontamination of Candida auris on Surfaces
Authors: Memic Samir , Kaple Claire , Cadnum Jennifer , Donskey Curtis
Published: May 2024

Background: Technologies that provides safe and effective decontamination of surfaces and equipment between episodes of manual cleaning could be an important advance in efforts to prevent transmission of the emerging fungal pathogen Candida auris.
Methods: We tested the efficacy of a novel wall-mounted far ultraviolet-C (UV-C) light technology that delivers far UV-C, when people are not detected within the field of illumination, against C. auris isolates from clades I, II, III, and IV using a quantitative disk carrier test method. In an equipment room, we examined the efficacy of the technology in reducing an isolate of C. auris from clade IV inoculated on multiple sites on portable devices. 
Results: The far UV-C technology reduced isolates from all 4 clades of C. auris by >3 log10 colony-forming units (CFU) after an 8-hour exposure on steel disks. For the clade IV isolate, similar reductions were achieved on glass and plastic carriers. In the equipment room, the technology reduced C. auris inoculated on multiple sites on portable equipment by >2 log10 CFU in 4 hours. 
Conclusions: The far UV-C technology could be useful for decontamination of surfaces and equipment between episodes of manual cleaning. Additional studies are needed to evaluate the use of the technology in clinical settings.

Poster as an Information Product in the System of Scholarly Communications
Authors: Krymskaya A. S.
Published: May 2024

The poster session has become one of the types of professional events (congresses, conferences, seminars, etc.). Despite the long-term discussions about the poster as an effective tool in the scholarly communication and its comparison with the abstract it has not studied as a product of analytical and synthetic information processing. The purpose of this article is to consider theoretical questions about the poster as an information product. The traditional structure of the poster is similar to the structure of a research article (introduction, methods, results, discussion) with the only difference – the poster presents these elements in compressed form, as well as in an abstract. The article gives a comparative analysis of the poster and abstract. It shows that such features of the abstract as information content, high semantic capacity, accurate reflection of the main actual information and conclusions, etc., are characteristic of posters as well. It concludes that summarizing the results of the analytical and synthetic processing of information in the poster allows its considering as one of the types of information products and libraries can include posters in the list of their information products/services. In order to create posters, such skills as compression of information, data visualization, communicative skills, research skills and critical thinking, as well as mastering technical tools, which are in demand in the market today and are reflected in the professional standard “Specialist in Library and Information Activities”. Their development can be made by poster technology, which is already lately implemented at the Library and Information Department of the St. Petersburg State Institute of Culture.
Scientific Publications in the Field of Agricultural Economics: Scientometric Analysis of Topics
Authors: Litvinenko T. V.
Published: May 2024

The relevance of the study is related to the need to assess the level of development of scientific knowledge and the degree of development of individual scientific problems in the field of agricultural economics. The purpose of this work is to study the dynamics of the number of publications in the field of agricultural economics in Russia and highlight their main topics. The main research method is content analysis within the bibliometric research. The results indicate great attention of scientists to various aspects of agricultural economics. However, from 2019 to 2023, the number of publications devoted to agricultural economics decreases. During the period under review, researchers pay the greatest attention to the following topics: “Accounting and analysis of economic activities”, “Financing and lending. Investments”. As the content analysis has shown, a significant number of publications are devoted to the problems of ensuring food security and sustainable development; innovative technologies, including digital ones; development of rural areas; issues related to government support and government regulation, productivity, competitiveness, small business, organic agriculture, investment, efficiency and agricultural management. At the same time, there is a relatively small number of publications devoted to pricing and labor resources, despite the relevance of these topics. In some years, there is a sharp increase in the number of publications on some topics. Thus, in 2019, the attention of researchers was as attracted by the topic of accounts payable and receivable, in 2020–2022 – programs for the development and support of agriculture, in 2020 and in 2023 – automation, in 2022 – import substitution. In 2021, there began to appear publications on the pandemic and unmanned technologies, and in 2023 – on artificial intelligence. Based on the calculation of the TF-IDF measure, it is concluded that there is greater similarity between the topics of publications in adjacent years than in non-adjacent ones. The results obtained can be used to plan the topics of research work.
Secondary Analysis of Human Bulk RNA-seq Dataset Suggest Potential Mechanisms and Transcriptional Biomarkers for Letrozole Resistance in Estrogen Positive (ER+) Breast Cancer
Authors: Sutherland Lincoln , Lang Jacob , Gonzalez-Juarbe Norberto , Pickett Brett E.
Published: May 2024

Estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer is common among postmenopausal women and is frequently treated with Letrozole. Letrozole inhibits aromatase from synthesizing estrogen from androgens. Decreased estrogen slows the growth of tumors and can be an effective treatment. Letrozole resistance is increasingly being observed, which poses a unique problem for patients. We reanalyzed transcriptomic data comparing individuals who responded to Letrozole therapy (responders) to those who were resistant to treatment (non-responders). We identified SOX11 and S100A9 as two genes that significantly differed between these patients; with “PLK1 signaling events” being the most significant signaling pathway. We also identified PRDX4 and E2F8 as the top transcriptional biomarkers for ER+ treatment resistance. Many of the other significant gene products play a known role in ER+ breast cancer or other types of cancer, which partially validate our results. Several of the gene products we identified do not have a characterized role in ER+ breast cancer. Our analysis identified a set of genes that warrant further research to elucidate the molecular mechanism of Letrozole resistance in this patient population, as well as novel high-performing biomarkers. We anticipate that these findings could contribute to improved therapeutic outcomes in human patients.
Trusted Composition of Internet of Medical Things Over Imperfect Networks
Authors: Ahmad Ehsan , Larson Brian , Banga Abdulbasid S.
Published: May 2024

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) represents a specialized domain within the Internet of Things, focusing on medical devices that require regulatory approval to ensure patient safety. Trusted composition of IoMT systems aims to ensure high assurance of the entire composed system, despite potential variability in the assurance levels of individual components. Achieving this trustworthiness in IoMT systems, especially when using less-assured, commercial, off-the-shelf networks like Ethernet and WiFi, presents a significant challenge. To address this challenge, this paper advocates a systematic approach that leverages the Architecture Analysis & Design Language (AADL) along with Behavior Language for Embedded Systems with Software (BLESS) specification and behavior. This approach aims to provide high assurance on critical components through formal verification, while using less-assured components in a manner that maintains overall system determinism and reliability. A clinical case study involving an automated opioid infusion monitoring IoMT system is presented to illustrate the application of the proposed approach. Through this case study, the effectiveness of the systemic approach in achieving trusted composition of heterogeneous medical devices over less-assured networks is demonstrated.
Robustness of Bayesian Random Forest in High-Dimensional Analysis with Missing Data
Authors: Lu Haifei , Zhou Kedong , He Lei
Published: May 2024

Vibration signal analysis is regarded as a fundamental approach in diagnosing faults in rolling bearings, and recent advancements have shown notable progress in this domain. However, the presence of substantial background noise often results in the masking of these fault signals, posing a significant challenge for researchers. In response, an Adaptive Denoising Autoencoder (ADAE) approach is proposed in this paper. The data representations are learned by the encoder through convolutional layers, while the data reconstruction is performed by the decoder using deconvolutional layers. Both the encoder and decoder incorporate adaptive shrinkage units to simulate denoising functions, effectively removing interfering information while preserving sensitive fault features. Additionally, dropout regularization is applied to sparsify the network and prevent overfitting, thereby enhancing the overall expressive power of the model. To further enhance ADAE's noise resistance, shortcut connections are added. Evaluation using publicly available datasets under scenarios with known and unknown noise demonstrates that ADAE effectively enhances the signal-to-noise ratio in strongly noisy backgrounds, facilitating accurate diagnosis of faults in rolling bearings.

Authors: Purc-Stephenson Rebecca , Roy Nicole A. , Chimaobi Adachukwu , Hood Deanna
Published: May 2024

Background: Individuals living in rural areas often face challenges in accessing healthcare, increasing their risk of poor health outcomes. Farmers, a sub-population in rural areas, are particularly vulnerable to mental health issues and suicide, yet exhibit low rates of help-seeking behavior. The aim of our study was to develop an in-depth understanding of the issues influencing mental help-seeking among farmers living in rural areas from the perspectives of healthcare providers, as well as to explore the strategies providers use to navigate through these issues to effectively engage with this vulnerable population.

Recently, much attention has been paid to electromagnetic stability in the development of energy storage devices, which makes it possible to maintain operating parameters during exposure to electromagnetic pulses and the consequences of their interaction. The issue of ensuring the electromagnetic stability of electronic equipment, due to the fact that under the influence of electromagnetic pulses in electronic and electrical circuits are overvoltage pulses, depending on the origin of electromagnetic pulses, distance from electromagnetic pulses source to hardware components amplitude, rise time and pulse duration can change. That is why the task of creating high-energy electromagnetic pulse generators remains extremely important for modern research. The main use of such generators is to study the interaction of thin-film layers of semiconductor materials with high-energy electromagnetic pulses and the development of elements to protect electronic equipment from the effects of electromagnetic pulses. A set of electromagnetic pulses generators has been created, the use of which will allow studying the properties of the protection elements of electronic equipment in a wide range of electromagnetic pulses capacities. In combination with the previously developed design of the electromagnetic pulses generator, this will affect the studied samples of electronic equipment and protection elements through the integrated operation of the electromagnetic pulses, which will have both high time and high energy. To ensure comfortable and safe research work, the device has a visual indication of operating modes, including modes of high DC voltage generation. The developed control device and power supply for the high-energy electromagnetic pulse generator meets the requirements established during its development and can be used to study the interaction of semiconductor thin-film layers with high-energy electromagnetic pulses.

The modern normative approach to determining the load capacity of power cables with cross-linked polyethylene insulation is considered and the application of the model of determining the allowable current loads of a specific medium voltage cable with cross-linked polyethylene insulation to study its overload capacity in production conditions. Power cables with cross-linked polyethylene insulation have clear advantages over traditional oil-filled ones, which has led to their widespread use in all developed countries and a significant reduction in the use of other types of cable. The relevance of the study is due to changes in voltage testing methods of cables with cross-linked polyethylene insulation around the world. In stationary thermal mode (100% load factor) according to current international standards IEC (series 60287) load capacity is defined as the maximum allowable (rated) current, which depends on the thermophysical parameters of a particular cable and the normalized thermophysical parameters of the environment. The use of mathematical model is proposed, which due to the combination of structural and thermophysical parameters of a particular cable with environmental conditions during laying in air allows to determine the parameters of stationary thermal regime of the cable for any long load current. The possibility of constructing nomograms for determining the parameters of permissible loads of cables with cross-linked polyethylene insulation of medium voltage in the range of long-term current loads in operation is shown. The work is aimed at further studies of the design of the outer protective coatings of cable with cross-linked polyethylene insulation on the dynamics of its heating in order to create a method of testing the overload capacity of a particular cable with cross-linked polyethylene insulation in production conditions.

Published: May 2024

Built in the years1884–1892 on the estate of Adam Mokiejewski in Rzuców, the manor thankfully survived the two World Wars into the present day. After the confiscation of the estate, the manor was adapted into a State Children’s Home. In 2011, the manor became private property, and the current problem was to adopt a conservation strategy that would allow a maximum of the building’s original historic substance to be preserved, while at the same time implementing a use programme adapted to current needs.

The development of various types of communication without the need for physical contact has brought the progressive atomization of societies. This influenced the way of life, and then the perception and functioning in the living space. The structuring of such space, in terms of private and public space, should enable unforced interpersonal contacts and their consolidation. This was closely related to the sense of security and comfort in the place of residence. This article presents an analysis of zones at the junction of the residential area and the surroundings as a space connecting, not separating, their users. The author's research has proven that this type of space can also have an impact on the formation of neighborly bonds and, subsequently, on the sense of security.

Authors: Rokhman Fatori , Fahruddin A'rasy
Published: May 2024

The implementation of an automatic lathe, utilizing hydraulic drive and PLC programming, stands as a significant advancement in industrial engineering aimed at augmenting productivity while circumventing additional labor requirements. Through meticulous research, it was discerned that the predominant issue plaguing the production process was the occurrence of stoppages due to irregular or unstable dimensions in the output, particularly concerning the Item Bush K0JA Left. Employing methodologies such as SIPOC analysis and the 4M framework revealed that the root cause primarily stemmed from machine-related factors, exacerbated by fluctuations in the installation, resulting in misalignments and subsequent dimension inaccuracies. Addressing this, a targeted intervention involving the addition of locking bolts to the material fixture mitigated the stoppage occurrences significantly, with the operator rectifying positioning irregularities on average 1200 minutes per month. This intervention not only enhanced operational efficiency but also yielded tangible cost savings, amounting to Rp 578,000 monthly or Rp 6,936,000 annually, attributed to the prevention of production downtime. The implications of this study underscore the importance of proactive measures in streamlining manufacturing processes, thereby optimizing resource utilization and economic viability. Further research avenues could delve into the optimization of maintenance protocols for automated machinery and the exploration of advanced sensor technologies to preemptively detect dimensional inconsistencies, thus bolstering overall production resilience and efficacy.
