Une excursion de la Société Géologique du Nord dans les carrières souterraines d’Arras le 21 octobre 2023. Stratigraphie et fracturation des craies coniaciennes
Authors: Amédro Francis , Bergerat Françoise
Published: June 2024

Les carrières souterraines d'Arras constituent un patrimoine naturel et historique remarquable : la craie coniacienne y a été exploitée depuis l’Antiquité en souterrain, puis après une période d’exploitation à ciel ouvert, à nouveau en souterrain au Moyen Âge. Un grand nombre de ces carrières ont été aménagées et reliées entre elles par un réseau de tunnels lors de la Grande Guerre, en vue de l'offensive d'avril 1917. Les coupes lithostratigraphiques réalisées dans les carrières d’Arras sont corrélables avec les coupes de référence du Boulonnais et du Kent. Les fractures sont extrêmement régulières et leur agencement se fait essentiellement suivant les directions N 105°-125° E (diaclases et quelques failles normales) et N 160°-180° E (décrochements senestres) ; elles ont largement guidé l'exploitation souterraine.
Cybersecurity in New Space and the Problem of International Regulation
Authors: Vettorel Arianna
Published: June 2024

The cruciality of New Space technologies for sustainable development has made them perfect targets of hostile cyber operations. However, even though cybersecurity appears in many socioeconomic and political think tanks, lawmakers have paid little attention to cybersecurity for New Space systems. In particular, no adequate international rules exist on this global urgent challenge. In this realm, some new initiatives have been recently adopted at the domestic level. Significant examples of these provisions are the standards designed by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the US Space Force.This paper will claim that these initiatives offer an important contribution to the drafting of new transnational regulation on the topic at hand and constitute a crucial feature of the evolving New Space legal governance, characterized by bottom-up actions; however, global transnational standards would be desirable to address global challenges, like cybersecurity.

Impact of Radical Changes of Circumstances on Contractual Relationships Under Swiss Law and English Law: Tomato-Tomato?
Authors: Denison Robert , Dos Santos Caroline
Published: June 2024

When circumstances change radically after a contract has been concluded, parties may try to seek relief from performance. If the terms of the contract itself do not assist, the underlying governing law may offer a remedy, depending on the supervening events in question and their effect on the contract. The authors examine the legal mechanisms that Swiss and English contract law provide to address such situations and compare how they each would approach some of the recent unprecedented global events that have affected international commerce. Both systems are reticent to intervene except where the changes affecting the contract are extreme; therefore, parties will often prefer to try to allocate risk of supervening events by including appropriate contractual terms. In the absence of such terms, both Swiss and English law may relieve a party’s liability if performance has become impossible. English law goes further, also offering respite where the purpose of the contract has been frustrated, but will not intervene solely to protect a party from a bad economic outcome. In contrast, Swiss law does permit a judge or arbitrator to intervene and amend the parties’ contract in cases of extreme economic imbalance.

India saw a sea change in governance mechanism with the opening of trade between economies. The corporate governance (CG) structure came under the scanner post revelation of the Satyam scandal exposing the vulnerable and weak regulatory mechanism in India. The objective of the study is to review the various reports of CG issued by the regulatory bodies in India and identify emerging themes on CG mechanism. A thorough review is undertaken of the CG reports and recommendations under various regulatory bodies in India identifying themes. The recommendations were made keeping the changing Indian market dynamics in mind. The reports mainly highlight the importance and role of independent directors (IDs), gender diversity on the Boards, mandatory vs. non-mandatory compliances and disclosures, the listing regulation and mandatory CG reports by listed companies. The role of both the Board of Directors and Audit Committee are considered as important. The review highlights the key recommendations of the reports on CG mechanism in India. It gives an insight into the main themes dealt with by the regulatory bodies and the issues that might be still pending to be looked into. It might be helpful to the policy-making bodies in identifying the loopholes. It contributes to the academic literature on CG providing scope to researchers’ relevant themes for study in this area. The study might help to understand the significance of an effective CG structure in curbing fraudulent activities.
Crowdfunding: Is It A Double-Edged Sword on Investments?
Authors: Jin Dongjie
Published: June 2024

Recently, crowdfunding has become a hot term attracting plenty of coverage. It involves in all kinds of industries such as medicine and business. Many start-up firms that cannot have other sources of fundings aim to raise money from the public in this way. It does open up a new way that can give those small firms an opportunity to breathe. However, this mode of crowdfunding is being stigmatized on which the public often connect it with ‘fraud’ and ‘liar’. In fact, any mechanism including crowdfunding could become the tool of exploitation without a strict regulation. Hence, the pivotal issues are operation and supervision rather than crowdfunding itself. This article will holistically examine the nature and value of crowdfunding and rebut the label of fraud, and then analyse the functions of supervision with the UK as target.

Authors: Shahid Mubashar Hassan
Published: June 2024

The rise of China has seemingly brought it on a collision course with the preeminent power, The United States of America. This has convinced various states,most notably India, Pakistan, Iran, and the Gulf countries,to re-orient their foreign policies. China’s investments through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), QUAD’s resurgence, Israel’s foray into the Arab countries, and persistentAmerican support to enhance India’s stature at par with China, have pushed the Indian Ocean Region to be at the epicenter of all global rivalries. The presence of extra-regional forces in the Western Indian Ocean Region has ensured some semblance of stability in the region,but it is the complex, interdependent relationship between strategically co-located states of Saudi Arabia, Iran, India, and Pakistan,under the shadow of China-USA competition,that is the objective of this study.

Work Avoidance as a Manifestation of Hostility, Helplessness, and Boredom
Authors: Jarvis Sharon , Seifert Tim
Published: June 2024

Work avoidance is a term that describes the behavior of students who seem to make little effort to understand or complete academic tasks. Although the condition has been described in earlier studies, the causes of work avoidance have not been explored. In this study, grades 5 and 6 students who were identified as work avoidant were interviewed to determine the causes of their work avoidance. It was hypothesized that boredom, hostility, and helplessness were three possible reasons for students not exerting effort. Students' protocols indicated that they do withdraw effort for several reasons: because they are bored, as an expression of hostility toward the teacher, or because of feelings of helplessness.

The Potential and Limitations of Large Language Models for Text Classification through Synthetic Data Generation
Authors: Pamidi venkata Ashok Kumar , Gudala Leeladhar
Published: June 2024

Large language models (LLMs), such as GPT-3 and BERT, have revolutionized the field of natural language processing (NLP), offering remarkable capabilities in text generation, translation, summarization, and classification. Among their many applications, LLMs show promise in text classification tasks, where they can automatically categorize text data into predefined categories or labels. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the potential and limitations of utilizing LLMs for text classification through synthetic data generation techniques. We delve into the methodologies employed in generating synthetic data using LLMs, which include techniques such as data augmentation, adversarial training, and transfer learning. These approaches aim to address issues of data scarcity and domain adaptation in text classification tasks. We explore their effectiveness in enhancing text classification performance, demonstrating how synthetic data can improve model generalization and robustness across diverse domains and languages. Additionally, we discuss the challenges and ethical considerations associated with synthetic data generation, including issues related to data privacy, bias amplification, and model fairness. Furthermore, we examine the impact of model size, pretraining data, and fine-tuning strategies on the performance of LLMs in text classification tasks. Recent studies have shown that larger models with access to more diverse pretraining data tend to achieve higher accuracy and better generalization on downstream tasks. Fine-tuning strategies, such as curriculum learning and self-training, can further improve model performance by adapting the model to task-specific data distributions. Through a critical analysis of existing literature and empirical studies, we provide insights into the current state-of-the-art techniques, identify key research gaps, and propose future directions for advancing the utilization of LLMs in text classification through synthetic data generation. This includes exploring novel approaches for generating diverse and representative synthetic data, developing evaluation metrics for assessing the quality of synthetic data, and investigating the long-term societal impacts of deploying LLMs in real-world applications.

Authors: Wati Kurnia Eka , Andayani Neny , Parwati Wiwin Dyah Ully
Published: June 2024

Legume Cover Crop (LCC) used in Palm plantations has not yet produced for weed control because there are still large open lands. To prepare LCC seedling of the Mucuna bracteata species, a medium is required that provides good root growth, inter alia, with the addition of organic material derived from various animal debris. This research aims to find out the influence as well as the interaction of type and comparison of the volume of cage fertilizer on the growth of LCC Mucuna bracteata on the latosol soil that has been carried out at the KP2 INSTIPER, Maguwoharjo, Yogyakarta, Yogyakarta and at the Central Laboratory, Instiper on April 20, 2021 to June 30, 2021. This research uses a complete random design (RAL) or Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method that consists of two factors. The first factor is a type of cage fertilizer that consists of three levels, namely cage, chicken and goat fertilizers. The second factor is the comparison of the volume of the soil of the latosol with the cage of 3 levels of 1:1, 2:1, and 1:2 with 10 repetitions. The results of the study were analysed with the analysis of variance prints at the significance level of 5%. The effective treatment was further tested with the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) using the significance level of 5%. Results of the analysis showed that the treatment of cage fertilizer and the comparison of the soil volume of latosol with cage fertilizer did not have a real interaction and both treatments gave the same effect on the growth parameters of plants, including its length, leaf number, shoots number, top fresh weight, top dry weight, root length, fresh root weight and dry roots of Mucuna brate plant. Cage fertilizer and volume comparison gives the same bet on all the growth parameters of Mucuna bracteata.

With the increase in the adulteration and fraudulent practices involving animal-derived products, such as agricultural products, food, and feed, and the potential risk of transmission of animal-derived diseases, the qualitative and quantitative detection technology of animal-derived ingredients has become a research hotspot as an efficient detection method to ensure food safety and protect the rights and interests of consumers. Comparing and analyzing the complete mitochondrial genome sequences of ten animals, cattle specific primers and probe were designed for the identification of cattle derived components using real-time PCR. The results showed that the pair of primers and probe developed for the detection of cattle components were highly specific and sensitive as they were able to identify as low as 1 picogram of DNA. The results obtained from the quantitative detection of cattle origin in beef products demonstrate that the method exhibits a strong capability for accurate quantitative detection.

A Zona Franca de Manaus, desde 1967, atua como uma área de livre comércio incentivada pela Suframa, promovendo o desenvolvimento regional. No contexto de desenvolvimento regional, a relação universidade-empresa e o modelo da tripla hélice são discutidos há décadas. A Lei de Informática tem sido fundamental para fomentar essas relações. Este artigo analisa a parceria universidade-empresa em Manaus, focando na Universidade Federal do Amazonas (UFAM). A pesquisa, de natureza documental, bibliográfica e qualitativa, utilizou entrevistas semiestruturadas com três técnicos administrativos e dois pesquisadores da UFAM envolvidos em projetos de P&D. Os entrevistados destacaram a importância da indústria para a universidade, mas identificaram desafios, como o conflito entre custos baixos e inovação. Benefícios significativos incluem investimentos em infraestrutura e bolsas de estudo. Em 2023, parcerias público-privadas resultaram em laboratórios novos, com aporte de R$ 25 milhões. Conclui-se que é necessário equilibrar os desafios da parceria, promovendo o desenvolvimento conjunto sem comprometer a integridade da universidade. A legislação, como a Lei de Informática, apoia a colaboração, mas é essencial garantir condições equitativas e preservar o ecossistema de inovação.

Objetivou-se analisar a luz da teoria do processo de trabalho em saúde a literatura científica relacionada às práticas de enfermagem no âmbito da Atenção Primária à Saúde. Foi realizada uma revisão de escopo no período de março a junho de 2023 em cinco bases de dados, utilizando-se estratégia de busca adaptada por base. A triagem e inclusão dos estudos foi executada por dois avaliadores independentes e as divergências mediadas por um terceiro revisor; realizou-se análise bibliométrica dos dados. A amostra final composta por 217 estudos apontou que a maioria dos trabalhos advém do cenário brasileiro, publicados entre os anos de 1999 a 2023. Os elementos do processo de trabalho em saúde (objetos, instrumentos e finalidades) aplicados pelo enfermeiro no cenário da Atenção Primária à Saúde movimentam-se em um processo cíclico dialético e consubstancial nos quais os objetos estiveram historicamente centrados em contextos fisiopatológicos. Os enfermeiros atendiam as demandas utilizando como principal instrumento a consulta de enfermagem e a finalidade alcançada neste processo de trabalho esteve restrita a prevenção de doenças, tratamento e reabilitação dos doentes. Historicamente o processo de trabalho do enfermeiro não alcançou a totalidade do seu propósito - boas práticas de promoção da saúde, prevenção, tratamento da doença e recuperação da saúde. Recomenda-se a aplicação do núcleo epistemológico da saúde coletiva para avançar em um movimento dialético de transformação dos sujeitos e romper com o ciclo de adoecimento populacional.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that can severely diminish a patient's quality of life. Beyond the physical manifestations, psoriasis has been linked to an increased risk of psychological comorbidities like depression. This review aims to synthesize the available evidence examining the relationship between psoriasis and depression. Methods: A comprehensive literature search across multiple electronic databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase) was conducted to identify relevant studies exploring the association between psoriasis and depressive symptoms or disorders. Both observational studies and intervention trials were included. Results: Numerous cross-sectional and longitudinal studies consistently report a higher prevalence of depression among individuals with psoriasis compared to the general population. The risk and severity of depressive symptoms appear positively correlated with the extent of psoriasis lesions and degree of psychosocial impairment. Potential underlying mechanisms discussed include psychosocial factors (stigma, low self-esteem), biological factors (inflammatory processes, cytokine dysregulation), and shared genetic predisposition. However, the causal direction remains unclear. Limited intervention data suggests effective psoriasis treatment may help alleviate coexisting depressive symptoms. Conclusion: This review highlights the substantial psychological burden associated with psoriasis, underscoring the importance of routine screening and appropriate management of depressive disorders in this patient population. An integrated multidisciplinary approach combining dermatological treatment with psychological interventions may enhance overall well-being and quality of life.
