Authors: Ramli Mona Fairuz , Ahmad Shabudin Ariffin Ahmad Shabudin , Aidil Syah Putra Aidil
Published: November 2024

Current research investigates the impact of students' E-Learning Attitudes (ELA), Digital Readiness (DR), and Academic Engagement (AE) on their academic performance in higher education. A survey in the form of an online questionnaire was administered to students through the networks established by the research teams. These networks encompassed academic staff from diverse Malaysian private as well as public universities. These academic staff were directed to share the survey link with their undergraduate students through WhatsApp or email. Two hundred eighty-six (286) valid surveys were collected from students at six public and private university campuses in Malaysia that offer courses and have used E-learning for at least one semester as part of COVID-19. In contrast to previous debates and studies, the outcomes of employing structural equation modeling through PLS 4.0 revealed a positive and noteworthy influence of E-learning platforms on students' academic performance. These findings hold broader implications for policymakers in higher education, researchers as well as educators, particularly in terms of considering the potential incorporation of social media tools within higher education, especially in developing nations. This research suggests that educational institutions that embrace change by aligning the goals of both students and instructors to establish a constructive and encouraging online learning atmosphere. This will foster active academic participation and enhance students' academic achievements.

Authors: Maya García Luis Alberto , Sánchez Hernández Jhon Alexander , Acevedo Willmar de J
Published: November 2024

La inteligencia, crucial para la adaptación humana, ha sido objeto de reflexión desde tiempos antiguos. Howard. Gardner propuso ocho inteligencias en 1983 y en 2001 consideró que puede existir una forma de “inteligencia espiritual”. Recientemente, la inteligencia espiritual ha ganado interés interdisciplinario, destacándose por su aplicabilidad tanto en la vida cotidiana como en la educación. Este estudio, por medio de una interpretación cualitativa de un instrumento cuantitativo, describe la influencia de la meditación en la inteligencia espiritual de personas cesantes que reciben formación en el Instituto de Capacitación Comfamiliar Risaralda. Se emplea el Test SISRI-24 de King y DeCicco (2009) y se propone una secuencia didáctica sobre meditación que incluye técnicas de respiración. Los resultados indican que la práctica de la meditación tiene un efecto positivo en el fortalecimiento de la inteligencia espiritual entre los participantes.
BRAZILIAN TRANSLATION OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN VERNACULAR ENGLISH: GIVING VOICE TO THE AFRICAN DIASPORA
Authors: Lourenço Hanes Vanessa Lopes
Published: November 2024

African-American Vernacular English has been simulated in literature through eye dialect or feigned orality at least since the time of Mark Twain and Joel Chandler Harris, lurching between realism, empathetic paternalism, and hostile caricature. More recently, Black authors and filmmakers have been foregrounding the connection between identity, speech, and code-switching, and African-American Vernacular English is becoming increasingly present in media. Combined with expanding global media penetration, this trend has created a situation that translators and subtitlers worldwide must address. Among the small body of research on the translation of dialect/orality in Brazil, specific analysis of African-American Vernacular English is lacking, which is surprising, since Brazil is a major consumer of imported American cultural products and home to the second-largest African diaspora community in the world. Because no race-based dialects exist in Brazilian Portuguese, three general translation strategies have been used to represent African-American Vernacular English: homogenizing, ruralizing, and urbanizing. Examples will be presented of each strategy, their limitations will be discussed, and translator justifications for their use will be explored. A recent apparent trend away from homogenization will also be discussed.
The Role of EM4 (Effective Microorganisms) in Solid Waste-Powered Microbial Fuel Cells: Investigating Voltage Output and Electrical Conductivity For Bioelectricity Generation
Authors: MUNFARIDA Ida , AUVARIA Shinfi Wazna
Published: November 2024

The increasing global demand for renewable energy and sustainable waste management solutions has inspired interest in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) as a dual-purpose technology for bioelectricity generation and waste treatment. This study explores the role of EM4, a consortium of effective microorganisms, in enhancing the voltage output and electrical conductivity of solid waste-powered MFCs. A batch system bioreactor assessed the impact of varying organic waste-to-zeolite ratios on MFC performance. The results demonstrated that a 1:1 ratio of organic waste to zeolite produced the highest electrical conductivity (3160 µS/cm) and the most substantial voltage output (777.5 mV) by day three of the experiment. Statistical analysis, including ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis tests, revealed significant differences in voltage output across treatments, with a positive correlation between electrical conductivity and voltage production. These findings highlight the potential of integrating EM4 and conductive materials like zeolite to optimize bioelectricity generation in MFCs, contributing to the advancement of sustainable energy technologies.

Authors: MURSANTO Bagas Pandu
Published: November 2024

With the emergence of industry in the Banyuasin district area, especially in Gasing Village, there are more job opportunities for residents and Banyuasin residents. However, the industry's rapid growth in the Banyuasin district can also hurt the environment, including air and water pollution. This research was carried out through descriptive observations of environmental conditions at the case study site. Data is collected and evaluated based on environmental elements, especially ambient air, emissions, noise and wastewater. At the case study location at an agro-industrial company in the Banyuasin district, the quality of ambient air, noise, emissions and wastewater from the WWTP was tested, and samples were taken. The test results show that the quality of ambient air, noise, emissions and wastewater produced by the WWTP around the factory area is classified as good, and all parameters meet the standards. If the measurement results of this research are looked at, there is no critical threshold value that attracts attention. This research shows that the industry must monitor the quality of the environment to make improvements and reduce the company's negative impact on the environment and the surrounding community's health.

The Socio-environmental Implications of Argentina’s Informal Economy in Antonio Berni’s Xilo-collage
Inundación en el barrio de Juanito
(1961)
Authors: BONINO NICOLE
Published: November 2024

Through a socio-aesthetic analysis of the xilo-collage
Inundación en el barrio de Juanito
realized in 1961 by acclaimed Argentinian visual and plastic artist Antonio Berni (1905–1981), the present article offers an ecocritical perspective on the anthropological and environmental consequences of the deposit of trash and floods affecting the unregulated residential settlements of the metropolitan areas of Buenos Aires and their portrayal in Berni’s artwork. By analysing the connections between objets trouvés, or recycled art, urban migration, the irregular economy and natural elements, this study considers plastic art as an alternative form of text that, just like literature, works as a dynamic archive of the intricate relationship between urban settlers, rubbish and the innocent yet disastrous rainfalls influencing their neighbourhoods.
The Return of the Tortured Ghost in Harkaitz Cano’s Novel
Twist
(2011)
Authors: SANGRADOR-VEGAS BEGOÑA
Published: November 2024

This article investigates the issue of political torture and forced disappearances within the context of the Basque political conflict as represented in the novel
Twist
(2011) by Harkaitz Cano. Although all violence is traumatic, the violence implicit in the systematic infliction of pain and humiliation on the state’s political ‘enemies’ by members of its security forces, and, in some cases, their enforced disappearance, translates into a traumatic memory that afflicts not only the victims but also the society represented by that state. Unresolved traumatic memory installs itself in the collective consciousness and generates ghosts that haunt the living and future generations. One way they may be exorcised is by the cultural transmission of the events that caused the trauma through literary fiction.
Disabled Cinematic Technologies or the Crisis of the Image’s Register in Pedro Almodóvar’s
Los abrazos rotos
(2009)
Authors: SUÁREZ JACQUELINE GARCÍA
Published: November 2024

The human body – and, by extension, the social corpus – has been the main subject of the critical apparatus of Disability Studies. However, I explore here how a ‘disabled technology’ might impact the works of memory and even the constitution of such bodies in Pedro Almodóvar’s film
Los abrazos rotos
(2009). Although the development of filmmaking technologies has traditionally been thought to serve the enhancement of the image’s readability, theorists such as Jean-Louis Comolli and Lev Manovich have pointed out the way in which these accomplishments reveal the medium’s flawed nature. Thus, this paper analyses the precarity of works of memory as resulting from the coalescence of the protagonist’s sensorial disability and from visual technologies’ impaired rendition of reality. I argue that the notion of disabled technologies not only expresses the crisis of the image’s legibility in the film but, furthermore, it entails a posthuman conception of the body itself as a (disabled?) technology.

We present a JWST MIRI medium-resolution spectrometer spectrum (5–27 μm) of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) SN 2021aefx at +415 days past B-band maximum. The spectrum, which was obtained during the iron-dominated nebular phase, has been analyzed in combination with previous JWST observations of SN 2021aefx to provide the first JWST time series analysis of an SN Ia. We find that the temporal evolution of the [Co iii] 11.888 μm feature directly traces the decay of 56Co. The spectra, line profiles, and their evolution are analyzed with off-center delayed-detonation models. Best fits were obtained with white dwarf (WD) central densities of ρ

c
= 0.9−1.1 × 109 g cm−3, a WD mass of M
WD = 1.33–1.35 M
⊙, a WD magnetic field of ≈106 G, and an off-center deflagration-to-detonation transition at ≈0.5 M
⊙ seen opposite to the line of sight of the observer (−30°). The inner electron capture core is dominated by energy deposition from γ-rays, whereas a broader region is dominated by positron deposition, placing SN 2021aefx at +415 days in the transitional phase of the evolution to the positron-dominated regime. The formerly “flat-tilted” profile at 9 μm now has a significant contribution from [Ni iv], [Fe ii], and [Fe iii] and less from [Ar iii], which alters the shape of the feature as positrons mostly excite the low-velocity Ar. Overall, the strength of the stable Ni features in the spectrum is dominated by positron transport rather than the Ni mass. Based on multidimensional models, our analysis is consistent with a single-spot, close-to-central ignition with an indication of a preexisting turbulent velocity field and excludes a multiple-spot, off-center ignition.

Superclusters, encompassing environments across a wide range of overdensities, can be regarded as unique laboratories for studying galaxy evolution. Although numerous supercluster catalogs have been published, none of them goes beyond redshift z = 0.7. In this work, we adopt a physically motivated supercluster definition, requiring that superclusters should eventually collapse even in the presence of dark energy. Applying a friends-of-friends (FoF) algorithm to the CAMIRA cluster sample constructed using the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam survey data, we have conducted the first systematic search for superclusters at z = 0.5–1.0 and identified 673 supercluster candidates over an area of 1027 deg2. The FoF algorithm is calibrated by evolving N-body simulations to the far future to ensure high purity. We found that these high-z superclusters are mainly composed of two to four clusters, suggesting the limit of gravitationally bound structures in the younger Universe. In addition, we studied the properties of the clusters and brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) residing in different large-scale environments. We found that clusters associated with superclusters are typically richer, but no apparent dependence of the BCG properties on large-scale structures is found. We also compared the abundance of observed superclusters with mock superclusters extracted from halo light cones, finding that photometric redshift uncertainty is a limiting factor in the performance of superclusters detection.

We examine star formation and dust properties for a sample of 660 galaxies at 1.37 ≤ z ≤ 2.61 in the MOSDEF survey by dividing them into groups with similarly shaped spectral energy distributions (SEDs). For each group, we combine the galaxy photometry into a finely sampled composite SED, and stack their spectra. This method enables the study of more complete galaxy samples, including galaxies with very faint emission lines. We fit these composite SEDs with Prospector to measure the stellar attenuation and SED-based star formation rates (SFRs). We also derive emission-line properties from the spectral stacks, including Balmer decrements, dust-corrected SFRs, and metallicities. We find that stellar attenuation correlates most strongly with mass, while nebular attenuation correlates strongly with both mass and SFR. Furthermore, the excess of nebular compared to stellar attenuation correlates most strongly with SFR. The highest SFR group has 2 mag of excess nebular attenuation. Our results are consistent with a model in which star-forming regions become more dusty as galaxy mass increases. To explain the increasing excess nebular attenuation, we require a progressively larger fraction of star formation to occur in highly obscured regions with increasing SFR. This highly obscured star formation could occur in dusty clumps or central starbursts. Additionally, as each galaxy group represents a different evolutionary stage, we study their locations on the UVJ and SFR-mass diagrams. As mass increases, metallicity and dust attenuation increase, while sSFR decreases. However, the most massive group moves towards the quiescent region of the UVJ diagram, while showing less obscuration, potentially indicating removal of dust.
Forecasts for Helium Reionization Detection with Fast Radio Bursts in the Era of Square Kilometre Array
Authors: Wei Jun-Jie , Gao Chong-Yu
Published: November 2024

The observed dispersion measures (DMs) of fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a good indicator of the amount of ionized material along the propagation paths. In this work, we present a forecast of He ii reionization detection using the DM and redshift measurements of FRBs from the upcoming Square Kilometre Array (SKA). Assuming a model of the Universe in which He ii reionization occurred at a specific redshift

, we analyze what extent the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for the detection of the amplitude of reionization can be achieved in the era of SKA. Using 106 mock FRB data from a 1 year observation of the second phase of SKA, we find that the S/N for detecting He ii reionization can approach the 32–50σ level, and the uncertainty on the reionization redshift can be constrained to be

Oligocene vertebrate footprints from the Lower Red Formation, Central Iran
Authors: Abbassi Nasrollah , Salehi Tinooni Mohammad , Ghorbani Dehnavi Mahdi , Shakeri Safoora , Eshaghi Ali
Published: November 2024

The Lower Red Formation (LRF) in Central Iran consists of the alternation of red-brown terrigenous sediments, marls and evaporites with basalt intercalations, exposed under the Chattian-Burdigalian Qom Formation and deposited on Eocene volcaniclastic sediments. The LRF is considered Rupelian in age. In the Deh Nar area, between Qom and Kashan cities, the LRF includes a basal conglomerate, alternations of brown-red sandstone and shale, colored marls with evaporite diapirs and top eroded red sandstone, with dark gray and green basalt lava intercalations. These sedimentary rocks are deposited in fluvial and playa environments, influenced by volcanic activities. Lower sandstone layers of the LRF in Deh Nar contain numerous vertebrate footprints, mostly preserved as convex hyporeliefs. Bird footprints are identified as Ardeipeda egretta, Aviadactyla vialovi, Avipeda phoenix and Gruipeda dominguensis. Small bird footprints are attributed to small, incumbent anisodactyl shoreline birds, such as sandpipers, and the larger of them to Gruiformes and Ciconiiformes, such as Ardeidae and Ciconiidae. Mammal footprints include Dehnaripus incognitusign. nov. and isp. nov., Lophiopus isp., Moropopus elongatus, Moropopus kashanensisisp. nov., Platykopus stuartjohnstoni, and Zanclonychopus isp.

Dehnaripus incognitus is large circular manus and pes imprints; usually, they show unorganized, large, radial surface wrinkles and their digital or metatarsal/ metacarpal imprints are ambiguous. Moropopus kashanensis is tridactyl mammal pes and manus imprints and is distinguished by sharp, claw-like imprints in lateral digits of the manus from Moropopus elongatus. Most probably, the mammal tridactyl footprints of Deh Nar made by three toed, medium- to large sized terrestrial herbivores perissodactyls such as Tapiroidea. Platykopus and Zanclonychopus, however, were remained by large carnivores such as Amphicyonidae or Ursidae. Trackmakers of footprints in the LRF of Deh Nar area lived under hot and dry conditions of terrestrial and evaporitic environments, after cool and dry conditions of the Early Oligocene.
Distribution patterns of Calonectria (Ascomycota, Sordariomycetes, Hypocreales, Nectriaceae) species complexes related to diseased leaves and soil habitats during leaf blight outbreak season in Eucalyptus plantations in southern China
Authors: Wu WenXia , Chen ShuaiFei
Published: November 2024

Calonectria leaf blight caused by Calonectria species is one of the most important diseases associated with Eucalyptus plantations in Asia and South America. This study aimed to clarify the distribution patterns of Calonectria species residing in different species complexes associated with diseased trees and soils during leaf blight outbreak season in Eucalyptus plantations in southern China. In this study, 482 Calonectria isolates obtained from diseased Eucalyptus trees and soils under these trees in eight sampling sites in three provinces were identified by DNA sequence analyses of tef1, tub2, cmdA, and his3 gene regions. Six species residing in three species complexes were identified: Calonectria pseudoreteaudii and C. acaciicola in the Calonectria reteaudii species complex; C. hongkongensis, C. aconidialis, and C. chinensis in C. kyotensis species complex; and C. auriculiformis in C. cylindrospora species complex. The habitats of Calonectria in different species complexes differed, C. reteaudii species complex inhabits in both diseased trees and soils, C. kyotensis species complex only in soils. The Calonectria leaf blight in the sampled regions was caused by species in the C. reteaudii species complex but not by the species in the C. kyotensis species complex. These findings suggest that the species in the C. reteaudii species complex should receive more attention in disease management, as they are the primary cause of the disease in the sampled regions.
Zuranolone: A Rapidly Acting Oral Neuroactive Steroid Antidepressant for the Treatment of Postpartum Depression
Authors: Kverno Karan , Ramos-Marcuse Fatima
Published: November 2024

Severe depression, anxiety, and mood dysregulation during pregnancy and postpartum are risk factors for the safety and health of mother and baby. Current best practice guidelines recommend screening for depressive and anxiety symptoms before and during pregnancy, in addition to the postpartum period. Rapid identification and treatment of depression has the potential to be life-saving and prevent deleterious consequences, including impaired mother–infant bonding, emotional dysregulation, and other developmental problems. The current article reviews the neurobiological mechanisms of postpartum depression and a novel rapidly acting oral pharmacotherapeutic neuroactive steroid, zuranolone. [

Authors: Qarah Mohammed , Alshammari Noura , Alsolami Ali , Abualkhair Ahmed , Aloufi Abdulaziz , Alzhrani Anas , Almuyidi Shatha , Almohandes Mayada
Published: November 2024

Background

Migraine, affecting over 1.04 billion people globally, is a severe, recurrent headache disorder with significant impacts on life quality. Despite extensive research on risk factors, the association with cutaneous allodynia (CA) is underexplored.

Objective

This study aims to assess the predictors contributing to both cutaneous allodynia (CA) and migraine and their prevalence among primary healthcare (PHC) visitors in Madinah City, Saudi Arabia.

Methods

A total of 403 participants agreed to participate in our cross-sectional study between September 1, 2023, and November 1, 2023. Migraine screening questionnaire (MS-Q) was used to screen for migraine. To assess allodynia symptoms, we used Allodynia Symptoms Checklist-12 (ASC-12). Participants aged 15 and older who attended one of the major PHC centers in Madinah City were included in the study.

Results

The prevalence of migraine among the participants was found to be 16.4%, with 57.6% of migraine patients exhibiting CA symptoms. Family history of migraine and high BMI were identified as significant predictors of migraine (P < 0.05), with odds ratio (OR) of 5.7 and 1.1, respectively. Additionally, female sex and high BMI were significant (P < 0.05) risk factors for CA among migraine patients, with ORs of 4.3 and 1.1, respectively.

Conclusions

The prevalence of migraine in Madinah City was higher than the global average but lower than the national average. A significant proportion of migraine patients also experienced CA. Further research is warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of migraine and CA, which could aid the development of targeted treatments and improve patient outcomes.

Sobre Tombos Concelhios Medievais e Modernos Portugueses
Authors: Pinto Pedro
Published: November 2024

A lei de 1431 teve um papel importante na definição de uma matriz do tombo concelhio, aperfeiçoada com a experiência da aplicação do anterior modelo de regimento outorgado pelo corregedor João Mendes a vários concelhos ao longo da década anterior. Mais tarde, apesar de persistirem iniciativas autónomas dos concelhos para fixar e validar cópias da sua documentação num suporte duradouro, o enquadramento régio como autoridade legal sancionadora sobrepôs‑se ao longo da Idade Moderna. Os tombos deixaram de ser só repositórios de documentos e passaram a ser também potenciais veículos de uma memória, uma intencionalidade, uma ideologia e uma narrativa, não só na sua génese mas também em momentos posteriores por via da adição de estratos documentais ou da reorientação das suas funções. Apresentamos um enquadramento cronológico deste processo com base nas informações recolhidas nos tombos que sobreviveram, e disponibilizamos informação relativa às suas características físicas, datação, usos ao longo do tempo e conteúdo.
Les expositions coloniales : le « moment » années 1930
Authors: Vargaftig Nadia
Published: November 2024

L’Exposition coloniale internationale de 1931 participe d’une histoire longue et d’une géographie large des expositions de site aux formes, aux échelles et aux intentions variées. Dans le sillage de l’expansion coloniale européenne, cet événement représente un modèle pour la mise en scène de la propagande coloniale et va ainsi inspirer d’autres expositions postérieures, en France comme à l’étranger. L’Exposition coloniale constitue également un creuset paradoxal pour l’élaboration de sa propre critique, en servant de repoussoir au discours anticolonial qui prend alors un nouvel essor.

L’Exposition coloniale internationale (ECI) de 1931 à Paris marque un tournant dans la représentation de l’Empire colonial français. Le discours colonial se repositionne autour de la « plus grande France » et d’une communauté de civilisation dont l’Exposition doit constituer le rendez-vous symbolique, et le palais des Colonies le point d’orgue architectural. Dirigé par le maréchal Lyautey, le projet d’exposition et de musée mobilise un important réseau d’artistes et d’architectes dont l’influence va perdurer bien au-delà de la fin de l’événement.

This yields a key improvement over the earlier cubic estimates of Hunter–Ifrim–Tataru (2016), while preserving their scale-invariant character and their position-velocity potential holomorphic coordinate formulation. Even without using any Strichartz estimates, these results allow us to significantly lower the Sobolev regularity threshold for local well-posedness, drastically improving earlier results obtained by Alazard–Burq–Zuily (2014, 2018), Hunter–Ifrim–Tataru (2016) and Ai (2019).
Minor-closed classes of binary functions
Authors: Jones Benjamin R.
Published: November 2024

Binary functions are a generalisation of the cocircuit spaces of binary
matroids to arbitrary functions. Every rank function is assigned a binary
function, and the deletion and contraction operations of binary functions
generalise matroid deletion and contraction. We give the excluded minor
characterisations for the classes of binary functions with well defined minors,
and those with an associated rank function. Within these classes, we also
characterise the classes of binary functions corresponding to polymatroids,
matroids and binary matroids by their excluded minors. This gives a new proof
of Tutte's excluded minor characterisation of binary matroids in the more
generalised space of binary functions.
On polynomials associated to Voronoi diagrams of point sets and crossing numbers

Published: November 2024

Three polynomials are defined for given sets $S$ of $n$ points in general
position in the plane: The Voronoi polynomial with coefficients the numbers of
vertices of the order-$k$ Voronoi diagrams of $S$, the circle polynomial with
coefficients the numbers of circles through three points of $S$ enclosing $k$
points of $S$, and the $E_{\leq k}$ polynomial with coefficients the numbers of
(at most $k$)-edges of $S$. We present several formulas for the rectilinear
crossing number of $S$ in terms of these polynomials and their roots. We also
prove that the roots of the Voronoi polynomial lie on the unit circle if, and
only if, $S$ is in convex position. Further, we present bounds on the location
of the roots of these polynomials.
Permutation Entropy for Signal Analysis

Shannon Entropy is the preeminent tool for measuring the level of uncertainty
(and conversely, information content) in a random variable. In the field of
communications, entropy can be used to express the information content of given
signals (represented as time series) by considering random variables which
sample from specified subsequences. In this paper, we will discuss how an
entropy variant, the \textit{permutation entropy} can be used to study and
classify radio frequency signals in a noisy environment. The permutation
entropy is the entropy of the random variable which samples occurrences of
permutation patterns from time series given a fixed window length, making it a
function of the distribution of permutation patterns. Since the permutation
entropy is a function of the relative order of data, it is (global) amplitude
agnostic and thus allows for comparison between signals at different scales.
This article is intended to describe a permutation patterns approach to a data
driven problem in radio frequency communications research, and includes a
primer on all non-permutation pattern specific background. An empirical
analysis of the methods herein on radio frequency data is included. No prior
knowledge of signals analysis is assumed, and permutation pattern specific
notation will be included. This article serves as a self-contained introduction
to the relationship between permutation patterns, entropy, and signals analysis
for studying radio frequency signals and includes results on a classification
task.
Topology of matching complexes of complete graphs via discrete Morse theory
Authors: Mondal Anupam , Mukherjee Sajal , Saha Kuldeep
Published: November 2024

Bouc (1992) first studied the topological properties of $M_n$, the matching
complex of the complete graph of order $n$, in connection with Brown complexes
and Quillen complexes. Bj\"{o}rner et al. (1994) showed that $M_n$ is
homotopically $(\nu_n-1)$-connected, where
$\nu_n=\lfloor{\frac{n+1}{3}}\rfloor-1$, and conjectured that this connectivity
bound is sharp. Shareshian and Wachs (2007) settled the conjecture by
inductively showing that the $\nu_n$-dimensional homology group of $M_n$ is
nontrivial, with Bouc's calculation of $H_1(M_7)$ serving as the pivotal base
step. In general, the topology of $M_n$ is not very well-understood, even for a
small $n$. In the present article, we look into the topology of $M_n$, and
$M_7$ in particular, in the light of discrete Morse theory as developed by
Forman (1998). We first construct a gradient vector field on $M_n$ (for $n \ge
5$) that doesn't admit any critical simplices of dimension up to $\nu_n-1$,
except one unavoidable $0$-simplex, which also leads to the aforementioned
$(\nu_n-1)$-connectedness of $M_n$ in a purely combinatorial way. However, for
an efficient homology computation by discrete Morse theoretic techniques, we
are required to work with a gradient vector field that admits a low number of
critical simplices, and also allows an efficient enumeration of gradient paths.
An optimal gradient vector field is one with the least number of critical
simplices, but the problem of finding an optimal gradient vector field, in
general, is an NP-hard problem (even for $2$-dimensional complexes). We improve
the gradient vector field constructed on $M_7$ in particular to a much more
efficient (near-optimal) one, and then with the help of this improved gradient
vector field, compute the homology groups of $M_7$ in an efficient and
algorithmic manner. We also augment this near-optimal gradient vector field to
one that we conjecture to be optimal.

Bu çalışmada otomotiv sektörü aydınlatma ürünleri plastik enjeksiyon kalıplarında kullanılan DIN 1.2343 çeliğinin dalma erozyon yöntemi ile işleme parametrelerinin yüzey pürüzlülük değerine olan etkisi araştırılmıştır. Deneylerde elektrot (CuBe2, CuAl10Ni5Fe4, CuCrZr), akım (4 A, 8 A, 16 A), vuruş süresi (30 μs, 60 μs, 120 μs) ve vuruş bekleme süresi (45 μs, 90 μs, 180 μs) parametreleri kullanılmıştır. Bu 4 faktör ve 3’er seviye için L27 ortogonal dizilim kullanılarak Taguchi analiz yapılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda optimum parametreler CuAl10Ni5Fe4 elektrot, 4 A akım değeri, 30 μs vuruş süresi ve 180 μs vuruş bekleme süresi belirlenmiştir. Bu parametreler ile yapılan doğrulama deneyinde yüzey pürüzlülük değeri 2,16 µm elde edilmiştir. ANOVA analizi ile yüzey pürüzlülük değeri için parametrelerin önem sırası sırasıyla vuruş süresi, akım, vuruş bekleme süresi ve elektrot tipi olduğu görülmüştür.
