Authors: Cousin Abel , Martin Richard , Momtaz Maryam , Paul Sébastien , Phalip Vincent , Heuson Egon
Published: December 2024

The enhancement of polymer depolymerization represents a significant challenge to reduce the environmental impact of plastic pollution and the utilization of raw materials. Recently, there has been a demand to optimize degradation analysis approaches, which have been observed to be sometimes used inappropriately or incompletely. This article proposes an analysis strategy for monitoring the depolymerization of poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PBPAC), using methanolysis as model method. It is based on five analytical methods, which our study attempts to combine and compare according to their ideal use case: size exclusion chromatography, liquid chromatography and FT-IR, NMR and MALDI-TOF spectroscopy. This strategy allows for both a qualitative approach to be taken, whereby the depolymerization products can be identified, along with a quantitative one, whereby the percentages of polymer degradation can be determined. As a result, the range of applications for each method is assessed, and a guide to the minimum methods to be used to qualify and quantify degradation is proposed, in relation to the progress of degradation and the yields obtained. This has enabled us to characterize and propose a new quantitative FT-IR based methodology, compatible with high-throughput screening, to the degradation of PBPAC, allowing to quantify degradation from 10 % onwards.

Published: December 2024

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is an immediate and powerful characterization technique that provides detailed information on the lattice structure and long-range order in crystalline materials. In recent decades, the quality and quantity of available crystal structure data has exploded, in large part due to the advent of online crystal structure databases, increased use of in-situ and operando methodologies, and user-accessible beamlines. The new wealth of data has also spawned an increasing use of machine learning (ML) to either construct high-throughput surrogates of established analysis or extract patterns from large datasets. However, XRD spectroscopy has been for many years solved via Rietveld refinement, while most ML techniques are simply complex statistical evaluation methods that are physics-agnostic. The discrepancy between data analysis and the underlying physics can lead to incorrect conclusions and/or limit the wide-spread adoption of ML techniques. In this review, we bridge the gap between ML and XRD spectroscopy with an introduction designed both for new data scientists and experimentalists interested in problems related to ML-guided spectroscopy analysis. We cover how supervised ML methods are used to predict likely symmetries and phases in pure and mixed samples, including challenges related to experimental artifacts and model interpretation. We also review recent uses of unsupervised methods in the extraction of patterns hidden in high-dimensional data, such as in in-situ and microscopic studies. Finally, we discuss the importance of problem formulation, data transferability, and reporting with recent case studies and give various resources throughout to expedite the learning curve for readers new to XRD or ML. We advocate for greater scrutiny of ML methods, how they are presented in the literature, and how to conduct data-driven research responsibly.
Earthquake Moment Magnitudes from Peak Ground Displacements and Synthetic Green's Functions
Authors: Dahm Torsten , Kühn Daniela , Cesca Simone , Isken Marius , Heimann Sebastian
Published: December 2024

We suggest an approach employing full waveforms from synthetic seismograms to estimate moment magnitudes and their uncertainties from peak amplitudes. The new method is theoretically derived. It does not change the established routines of traditional procedures for magnitude determination, while overcoming some of the limitations such as saturation, scattering and source complexity. Attenuation functions are derived on-the-fly for each source-station combination from synthetic seismograms using Green's function databases representing various velocity models if required. In a bootstrap approach, source depth, geometry, dynamic and kinematic parameters are randomly selected within a realistic range. After calibration with observations, attenuation functions can be extrapolated to distances, depths, regions and magnitudes for which no observations exist. Additionally, individual frequency filters and sensor types can be mixed independently of any definition of traditional magnitude scales. Uncertainties of attenuation functions are estimated for every source-station geometry including the sensor characteristics and its potential frequency saturation. Therefore, realistic uncertainties of mean magnitudes can be estimated even in case of only few measurements. The method is especially useful to estimate local and moment magnitudes for temporary deployments or for monitoring induced seismicity in regions with only few tectonic events.
Hydrothermal Carbonization of Eucheuma cottonii for Selective Adsorption of Anionic Dyes
Authors: Putri Bunga Indah , Arsyad Fitri Suryani , Lesbani Aldes
Published: December 2024

The contamination of wastewater with synthetic dyes, particularly anionic dyes, poses a significant environmental challenge due to their persistence and difficulty in removal. Traditional adsorbents are often expensive or inefficient, driving the need for sustainable, eco-friendly alternatives. In response to this problem, this study explores the use of Eucheuma cottonii, a fast-growing and widely available macroalgae, as a raw material for producing hydrochar through hydrothermal carbonization (HTC). The goal is to develop a renewable and effective adsorbent capable of selectively removing anionic dyes from contaminated water. Hydrochar was synthesized at two different HTC temperatures, 150°C and 250°C, and its surface properties were characterized using FT-IR and BET analyses. Adsorption experiments were conducted on four anionic dyes-Congo Red (CR), Direct Yellow (DY), Methyl Orange (MO), and Direct Green (DG)-under varying pH, contact time, dye concentration, and temperature conditions. The hydrochar produced at 250°C (HC-250) demonstrated the highest surface area and pore volume, leading to superior adsorption performance, particularly for DY. Kinetic studies revealed a chemisorption-driven mechanism, while thermodynamic analysis confirmed the adsorption process to be spontaneous and endothermic, with both chemisorption and physisorption contributing to dye removal. The adsorption behavior followed the Langmuir isotherm model, indicating monolayer adsorption, with minimal interaction between adsorbed molecules. Regeneration tests confirmed that Eucheuma cottonii hydrochar could be reused over multiple cycles with minimal efficiency loss. Future work could optimize the HTC process by adjusting pressure, heating rates, and pre-treatment methods to improve adsorption properties. Incorporating nanomaterials or metal oxides could enhance adsorption for a wider range of pollutants, while machine learning could predict adsorption behavior under different conditions. Additionally, exploring the hydrochar’s use in energy storage or as a catalyst offers promising applications. Life-cycle assessments (LCAs) and techno-economic analyses (TEAs) will be vital for assessing scalability and environmental impact, positioning Eucheuma cottonii hydrochar as a sustainable, multifunctional material for industrial applications.
Assessing Waste Management Practices and Their Impact on Environmental Sustainability in Afghanistan
Authors: Zakhilwal Shawkat Ali , Behsoodi Mohammad Mukhlis , Aslam Muhammad Sagheer
Published: December 2024

This paper examines waste management’s impact on environmental sustainability in Afghanistan against the backdrop of global waste management challenges. Globally, unsustainable waste management practices contribute significantly to environmental degradation, with 1.3 billion tons of food wasted annually-one-third of global production exacerbating hunger for one in seven people. Global waste production has reached 2.01 billion tons annually, with construction contributing 35%. Packaging and paper waste account for 40-65% of waste treatment costs in Europe, and tourism adds 35 million tons of solid waste annually. Plastic waste production has risen to 300 million tons per year, threatening marine life with projections of sea pollution surpassing fish populations by 2050. In Afghanistan, financial and technical constraints lead to significant food loss and improper waste disposal, creating unsanitary environments and health hazards. Household waste mismanagement ranges from 20% to 80%, with Kabul generating 3,300 tons of waste per day by 2025, 70% of which is organic. Data from 127 respondents reveal a positive correlation (0.265) between waste management and sustainability, accounting for 26.5% of the variation, with a 0.249 coefficient confirmed at the 1% significance level.
De-lighting Human Images
Authors:   , Weir Joshua
Published: December 2024

In real-world image processing, the original scene lighting is crucial to consider. Changes in lighting can significantly impact how a subject appears, potentially improving or diminishing the viewer's experience or the performance of image processing systems. Being able to adjust the lighting as a post-processing step is valuable for situations where controlling scene lighting is restricted. Significant progress has been made towards photo-realistic relighting of human portraits using deep learning. However, failure to remove real-world illumination features present in the input image has been a major drawback of recent work. To overcome these limitations, this research proposes various deep learning strategies for de-lighting single images of humans, that is, recovering the albedo, or a uniformly-lit image with all lighting artifacts removed. In Chapter 3, we developed a deep learning framework for de-lighting of portrait images, where we gain significant performance improvements by introducing three regularization strategies: masked loss, to emphasize high-frequency shading features; soft-shadow loss, which improves sensitivity to subtle changes in lighting; and shading-offset estimation, to supervise separation of shading and texture. Furthermore, we demonstrate how our de-lighting method can enhance the performance of light-sensitive computer vision tasks such as face relighting and semantic parsing, allowing the tasks to handle extreme lighting conditions. In Chapter 4, we transition to delighting full-body images, which pose greater challenges than portraits due to diverse poses and clothing variations. We design a semi-supervised deep learning framework for full-body albedo estimation that leverages both limited labeled data, and a vast dataset of unlabeled real-world photos. Here, we improve generalization by a novel data augmentation method for diversification, a sparsity constraint on the inferred shading for stable texture recovery, and dynamic gamma correction for handling complex shadows found in real-world images. Our experiments highlight that this approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods, improves shading removal, and maintains the integrity of underlying textures in real-world scenarios.

Memoria democrática y lugares de memoria en la enseñanza de la historia. Análisis de los libros de texto de 4º de la ESO en la comunidad autónoma del País Vasco
Authors: Lamikiz Jauregiondo Amaia , Delgado Cendagortagalarza Ander
Published: December 2024

La promulgación de la Ley de Memoria Democrática (2022) ha puesto el tema de la memoria democrática y los lugares de memoria en el centro de muchos debates, contribuyendo así a destacar su relevancia en la enseñanza de la historia. Esta circunstancia ha coincidido con el proceso de renovación del currículum en la Comunidad Autónoma del País Vasco (CAPV) para adaptarlo a la LOMLOE (2020), lo cual nos ha llevado a preguntarnos por la presencia de los contenidos relacionados con la memoria democrática y los lugares de memoria en los nuevos libros de texto utilizados en la CAPV, así como la integración de estos temas en la enseñanza y aprendizaje basada en competencias. Tras realizar un análisis de las actividades de los manuales de historia utilizados por el alumnado de 4º de la ESO en nuestra comunidad, podemos concluir que, si bien los libros de texto contribuyen a la transmisión de una narrativa histórica que explica el establecimiento y consolidación de la democracia actual, en lo que respecta al desarrollo de las competencias histórica y ciudadana queda aún trabajo por hacer. Las actividades analizadas sugieren que los libros de texto han comenzado a introducir a los alumnos en habilidades de pensamiento histórico y buscan promover el debate y la reflexión sobre la influencia del pasado reciente en nuestra sociedad actual, pero deben aún integrar en sus propuestas contenidos temáticos y procedimentales adaptados a las actividades propuestas que contribuyan de manera más coherente al trabajo por competencias en el aula.
La memoria histórica y democrática en los currículos LOMLOE de Educación Primaria de las comunidades autónomas españolas
Authors: García Ruiz Carmen Rosa , García-Morís Roberto
Published: December 2024

Una novedad relevante en la LOMLOE es la introducción de la memoria democrática como una nueva dimensión de la Educación para la Ciudadanía, con el objeto de promover la participación ciudadana en la vida pública. Sin embargo, el trabajo de Navarro-Medina, De Alba-Fernández y Pérez-Rodríguez (2023), señalando la ausencia en el actual currículo de conceptos clave como dictadura, franquismo, régimen totalitario, persecución, exilio o sublevación, nos sitúa en la tesitura de valorar las interpretaciones que han realizado de la actual ley de educación el conjunto de comunidades autónomas del estado español. El problema de investigación del que partimos intenta valorar en qué medida ha influido el signo político de cada una, en la interpretación realizada de las indicaciones ministeriales. A tal fin, acometemos un estudio descriptivo-interpretativo de los decretos que establecen la ordenación del currículo en la etapa de Educación Primaria en las comunidades autónomas.

Authors: Piazuelo Ismael , Rubio-Navarro Alodia
Published: December 2024

Este trabajo explora el potencial de las fuentes artísticas y de los museos que las albergan para desarrollar competencias propias del pensamiento histórico entre estudiantes de Educación Secundaria. Se revisa de qué modo y hasta qué punto la normativa curricular española atiende al trabajo con estos dos elementos para enseñar a pensar históricamente, y se presentan argumentos, derivados de la Didáctica de las Ciencias Sociales y otros campos afines, sobre los beneficios de incluir prácticamente las colecciones artísticas en la educación histórica. Para ejemplificar una posible vía de trabajo con metaconceptos como el de cambio y continuidad, se diseña una propuesta didáctica contextualizada en el Museo Pablo Gargallo (Zaragoza, España) que tiene por objetivo analizar críticamente cómo el arte ha reflejado, construido o desafiado determinados cánones de belleza a lo largo de la historia.

Grid Interconnection Solutions and Power Quality Enhancement for a Battery Supported Hybrid PV System
Authors: Güzey Batuhan , Bozkurt Helin , Teke Ahmet
Published: December 2024

The energy demand is increasing unprecedentedly day by day due to rapid development of technology. In order to meet environmental expectations, it is necessary to give more place to cleaner and renewable energy sources than others. Solar energy is one of the most important type of these resources. This paper aims to design a grid-connected hybrid system consisting of a 12.45 kW Photovoltaic (PV) system and a 10 kWh capacity Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). In design procedure, Perturb Observe (P&O), Incremental Conductance (INC), Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Hybrid Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms are implemented and tested. The most efficient method is selected among the applied algorithms and the is developed to ensure power continuity. Since the powers of PV and BESS are different from each other, it is determined that Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) increases when the system is in night mode. To solve this issue and enhance power quality, a single mode LCL filter is performed. Then, two-mode LCL filter is deployed. Thus the THD value is decreased from 4.8% to %3.2. Additionally, with ANN-MPPT, 97.5% system efficiency is observed even at low irradiance.
Current dietary approaches in ulcerative colitis: Exploring implications for women’s health
Authors: Mumcu Mine , Kavsara Hasan Kaan
Published: December 2024

Ulcerative colitis (UC) affects many individuals, significantly impacting their quality of life (QoL) and leading to severe medical complications. Unfortunately, the adverse health outcomes of UC are often overlooked, particularly in relation to women's health, including pregnancy, lactation, sexuality, and menopause. The main objective of this review is to provide guidance for women with UC, helping them navigate their disease and gain knowledge about the effects of nutrition on their overall well-being. A literature search was conducted between October 1, 2022, and July 14, 2023, using books, documents, and journal articles. Internet-based sites such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCO, and Google Scholar were also utilized. It became evident that women with UC are greatly affected during active periods of the disease, which can significantly reduce their QoL. Pregnancy, sexuality, menstruation, and puberty were among the factors most negatively impacted by the disease. A diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods, probiotics, berberine, turmeric, and vitamin D was found to have a positive association with UC. However, the consumption of a Western dietary pattern or a meat-based diet increases the risk of the disease. In conclusion, maintaining remission and following dietary patterns that suppress inflammation may help reduce complications and improve QoL in women. Our data suggest that all women diagnosed with UC should be well-informed and educated about the disease and its consequences. Further studies are needed to investigate the relationship between ongoing dietary habits and the treatment of UC in women.

Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of an essential oil from the leaves of Salvia officinalis L. (sage oil) when used as a sensory additive in feed and in water for drinking for all animal species. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that sage oil is considered safe up to the maximum proposed use levels in complete feed of 20 mg/kg for ornamental fish. For the other species, the calculated safe concentrations in complete feed were 3 mg/kg for chickens for fattening and turkeys for fattening, 4 mg/kg for laying hens and rabbits, 5 mg/kg for piglets, 6 mg/kg for pigs for fattening, 7 mg/kg for sows and dairy cows, 11 mg/kg for veal calves (milk replacers) and salmonids, 10 mg/kg for cattle for fattening, sheep/goats and horses, 12 mg/kg for dogs and 2 mg/kg for cats. These conclusions were extrapolated to other physiologically related species. For any other species, the additive is safe at 2 mg/kg complete feed. The FEEDAP Panel considered that the use of sage oil in water for drinking is safe provided that the total daily intake of the additive does not exceed the daily amount that is considered safe when consumed via feed. The use of sage oil in animal feed under the proposed conditions of use is safe for the consumer and the environment. Regarding user safety, sage oil should be considered as an irritant to skin and eyes and as a dermal and respiratory sensitiser. Since the oil of the leaves of S. officinalis is recognised to flavour food and its function in feed would be essentially the same as that in food, no further demonstration of efficacy was considered necessary.

Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum NCIMB 41028 as a technological additive to improve ensiling of fresh plant material. The additive is intended for use in all fresh material for all animal species at a proposed minimum concentration of 1 × 109 colony forming units (CFU)/kg fresh plant material. The bacterial species L. plantarum is considered by EFSA to be suitable for the qualified presumption of safety approach to safety assessment. The identity of the strain was established, and no antimicrobial resistance genes of concern were detected. Therefore, the EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that the use of the strain as a silage additive is considered safe for all the animal species, for consumers of products from animals fed with the treated silage and for the environment. Regarding user safety, the additive should be considered as a potential skin and respiratory sensitiser, and any exposure through skin and respiratory tract is considered a risk. The additive is not a skin irritant, but the Panel cannot conclude on the eye irritation potential of the additive. The FEEDAP Panel concluded that the addition of L. plantarum NCIMB 41028 at a minimum level of 1 × 109 CFU/kg fresh plant material has the potential to improve the production of silage from fresh material.

CONTRIBUTION OF R.K. NARAYAN IN THE FIELD OF LITERATURE AND ITS RELEVANCE IN THE MODERN WORLD
Authors: M G Harish
Published: December 2024

R.K. Narayan regarded as one of the “Big three” among the Indian novelists in English has been admired for his remarkable gift for telling stories, portraying memorable people of small oddities and eccentricities, and for his humour. To tell a story engagingly is no mean gift for a novelist. Narayan’s fiction rarely addresses political issues or high philosophy.

Let’s start with understanding the meaning of the above quotation which is, that to provide justice properly to the needy person few things should always be kept in mind the legal system (lawyers, justice, law officers) should always check the possible ways to provide justice to the needy person, no one should be kept away from the justice. For that, many lawyers should provide free legal aid to needy people who cannot afford the court and lawyer’s fees. Now let us understand the basic meaning of the terms of the topic one by one. Let's start with the term investigation, it is a type of examination done to find some facts about the situation which may help further to provide justice because a single fact related to the case and even change the whole decision of the case can be done by some officially or unofficially by one who has the permission for it. Now, Justice means fair behavior with other people means they should be treated equally and no discrimination should be done on any basis, people around the world when they are struck in a case situation demand justice for them when they are innocent then the legal system must provide justice properly to the needy person.Earlier there were different methods to investigate the case which we will discuss later but after the technological advancement, there was a drastic change in the methods or strategies used by the officers to investigate the case, with the change in technology the methods to collect pieces of evidence, finding out DNA prints has become a lot easier for the officer doing the investigation.

This study explores the role of education in transforming marriage and family values in the Agra district of Uttar Pradesh, India. Using a mixed-methods approach, 117 respondents were surveyed to examine how education impacts marriage choices, gender roles, and family structures. The analysis, conducted using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and correlation matrices, reveals that higher education promotes autonomy in marriage decisions, supports gender equality within households, and encourages a shift from traditional joint family systems to nuclear families. The findings suggest that education is a key driver of social change, aligning with national trends observed in urban areas. And, regional disparities remain, especially in rural and semi-urban regions, where access to education is limited, and traditional values persist. The study emphasizes the need for expanded educational access and gender equality programs to further foster progressive family dynamics in underrepresented areas. Future research should focus on exploring these regional differences and the broader implications of education on family and societal structures.
ŚAKUNI REIMAGINED: FOLK NARRATIVES AND THE DECONSTRUCTION OF VILLAINY IN THE MAHĀBHĀRATA
Authors: Srishti  , Goswami Akansha
Published: December 2024

The lasting allure of the Mahābhārata stems from its ability to evolve, enabling society to revisit and reinterpret its narrative over time. This reinvention also offers its so-called 'villains,' who are often relegated to the 'rogues' gallery, an opportunity for redemption. Śakuni, the cunning maternal uncle of the Kauravas, is one such character. While Vyāsa’s epic paints him as a negative figure, folk interpretations offer alternative perspectives. In Saralā Das's Oriyā Mahābhārata, Śakuni is depicted not as the chief architect of the war, but rather as a victim of the political machinations within the Kaurava court. Likewise, sympathetic portrayals of Śakuni can be found in the Kalbelia traditions of Rajasthan and in the folk renditions from Kerala. This research employs narrative technique to challenge the vilification of Śakuni. Using psychoanalytical criticism and deconstruction, it seeks to explore lesser-known narratives and reconsider Śakuni’s role, freeing him from filial blame and repositioning him in the epic's broader universe.

The essential wellspring of nourishment for everybody is horticulture. Broad review shows that farming is essentially affected by the advancement of ailments in rice fields. Ranchers are confronted with the difficult undertaking of unequivocally distinguishing contamination in their corn crops during the foliar illness stage. Hence, to foresee illnesses, programmed sickness discovery calculations should focus more on early signs of paddy infections. The sorts of harvests that can be developed and their yields are fundamentally affected by these sicknesses, which first assault the leaves prior to spreading all through the whole rice field. Subsequently, to successfully control the spread of disease and backing solid plant development, exact classification and early distinguishing proof of paddy sicknesses are fundamental. This article proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN) model for paddy sickness order with an end goal to defeat these hardships. The proposed approach searches for sores on the leaves that could be the consequence of an illness utilizing picture handling calculations. Through preprocessing, CNN's component testing precision with classifier is better than that of other current models. Utilizing genuine Inaba photographs, the viability of the proposed consideration-based preprocessing was additionally affirmed. The CNN model has a higher characterization exactness when contrasted with other exchange learning calculations.
