TYPEFACE IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT AS A MEDIUM OF VISUAL CULTURE
Authors: В.Е. Рябинина-Задерновская
Published: October 2024

В совокупности с элементами природного, архитектурного и предметно-пространственного окружения объекты графического дизайна формируют эстетический облик города, во многом определяя характер восприятия городской среды в глазах человека. В культурологическом аспекте шрифт как графический артефакт является одним из самых эффективных инструментов организации целостного образа города, подчёркивает аутентичность и непрерывность его истории, укрепляет чувство принадлежности к городскому сообществу.

Together with elements of natural, architectural and object-spatial environment, graphic design objects form the aesthetic image of the city, largely determining the nature of perception of the urban environment in the eyes of man. In the cultural aspect, the font as a graphic artefact is one of the most effective tools for organising the holistic image of the city, emphasising the authenticity and continuity of its history, as well as strengthening the sense of belonging to the urban community.

Published: October 2024

The subject relevance of the work is devoted to social security problems in wartime because the existence of civil rights and the population’s quality of life are threatened more than ever. The conflict in Ukraine has presented society and the state with challenging questions that need treatment at social and individual levels to guarantee the well-being of people. The research will investigate the procedures for providing social protection in armed conflict. The research methods include operations with legal documents, the comparison of the research with the data of the experience of other countries, the analysis of the content of articles, and statistical and systematic analysis. Among the significant factors that define social security, the study defines legal defence, economic security, social security through the availability of necessary social services, and physical security of the people. Thus, there is a need to enhance legislation and provide effective mechanisms for its implementation. Economic security is brought through financing tools and SME support, according to financing aids. Healthcare and education are social services; thus, they require adjustments in case of a war. The emotional impact on people’s state should be supported, and it is indeed necessary for their souls and minds. Social motives and projects are intended to help improve the existing situation of the most susceptible categories of the population. Interaction between state and non-governmental organisations play significant roles in providing social security and other related aspects. The practical implications of the presented findings refer to the formulation of guidelines to enhance the efficiency of social security in contexts of military conflict and enhance the level of protection of the human rights of the citizens.

Authors: Zeng Rongxin
Published: October 2024

This paper examines a crucial aspect of the legal framework governing the rights of recourse between co-guarantors. It focus on the Chinese context while drawing insightful comparisons with France, Germany, and the United States. A comprehensive analysis of the pertinent provisions of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China and the Supreme People's Court interpretations reveals inconsistencies and ambiguities that necessitate further examination. To enhance the discourse, the paper contrasts Chinese regulations with those of France, Germany, and the United States, elucidating disparate approaches and potential best practices. This comparative analysis not only identifies the strengths and weaknesses of China's current stance but also suggests avenues for improvement. By examining foreign legal systems, the study identifies areas where Chinese law could be refined to better align with international standards and principles of fairness. The findings emphasize the necessity for the establishment of a more coherent and equitable legal framework in China, one that provides clear and unambiguous guidelines for co-guarantors seeking recourse. It is recommended that steps be taken to address the discrepancies identified and to advocate for reforms that promote legal clarity and enhance the protection of co-guarantors' rights. The paper concludes with a recommendation for comprehensive legislative reform, emphasizing the importance of balancing the interests of all parties involved in co-guarantee arrangements in order to foster a more robust and internationally compatible legal environment.

Published: October 2024

WBG (Wide Bandgap) devices are an enabling technology that can operate at high switching speeds, is more efficient, can stand higher temperatures, has a higher level of integration, and is lighter and more compact than silicon-based devices. Silicon was running out of steam. WBG has better characteristics for electrically powered equipment, substantial advantages, and inherent material properties. Hence there is increased attention for WBG from both academic and industrial research, and there is also an increased interest in the reliability of SiC (Silicon Carbide) power devices. WBG devices are reviewed from the role of defects and impact on performance. The emphasis of this paper also reviews technical challenges and other issues such as the price of WBG devices being extremely high, SiC MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors) channel mobility, high dv/dt, electromagnetic interference, EV integration, reflected wave resulting in overvoltage in the load side, noise, and validating the mitigation. Reduction of defects will enable WBG to reach its full potential.

Published: October 2024

P-MFC representa uma tecnologia emergente e sustentável para a geração de eletricidade, utilizando a bioeletricidadegerada por interações planta-microorganismo no solo. Embora a cana-de-açúcar, uma planta de via metabólica de fotossíntese C3, não tenha sido amplamente explorada em aplicações P-MFC, este estudo visa preencher essa lacuna, avaliando seu potencial elétrico em um P-MFC sedimentar sem membrana. Utilizando placas condutoras simples em configurações experimentais individuais com mudas de cana-de-açúcar, focamos na medição da tensão como principal variável. Observou-se que a cana-de-açúcar aumenta significativamente a tensão em P-MFC, alcançando até 440mV, destacando seu potencial como fonte de energia renovável. Este estudo não apenas confirma o papel crítico do eletrodo na eficiência e durabilidade do P-MFC, mas também abre caminho para futuras aplicações práticas, sugerindo a viabilidade de usar a cana-de-açúcar em P-MFCs para alimentar dispositivos de baixa potência, como sensores em sistemas agrícolas, contribuindo assim para avanços em agricultura sustentável e tecnologias verdes.

As neoplasias podem ser definidas como proliferações celulares anormais, pois há descontrole da produção dessas células, submetendo o organismo a efeitos agressivos causado por elas. Os pacientes com tumores cerebrais sofrem alterações neuropsiquiátricas e físicas devido a efeitos colaterais severos tanto da doença, quanto do tratamento, sendo em alguns casos alterações irreversíveis. Qualidade de vida é a percepção que o indivíduo tem sobre sua posição na vida, que engloba todos os conceitos, tudo o indivíduo acha necessário e adequado para viver bem e satisfeito. O diagnóstico do câncer tem um efeito altamente impactante na vida social, empregatícia e familiar do indivíduo. A proposta desse estudo é avaliar a qualidade de vida na percepção dos pacientes portadores de tumor cerebral. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, descritivo de caráter qualitativo. A população estudada foi composta por pacientes portadores de tumor cerebral cadastrados nas equipes de saúde da família na cidade de Montes Claros-MG. Para a realização deste estudo foi utilizado o método de entrevista semiestruturada, que possuiu questões norteadoras sobre o assunto. Para a realização das entrevistas foi solicitado um levantamento de dados através da coordenação de saúde da família de Montes Claros MG.

Supporting Midwifery Student Whistleblowers
Authors: Capper Tanya , Ferguson Bridget
Published: October 2024

Clinical placements enable midwifery students to apply theory to practice and become professionally socialised through exposure to professional behaviour and practice. However, there are situations where students witness inappropriate behaviour or unsafe practice, creating a dilemma of whether to whistleblow. Whilst it is recognised that whistleblowing about behaviours or practices jeopardising the safety of mothers and babies is crucial, the perceived power disparity between students and midwives makes this challenging. Due to concerns about the repercussions of whistleblowing, clinical and educational organisations must foster supportive environments that enable students to confidently whistleblow to safeguard the wellbeing of mothers and babies.

The wrist is essential to various human activities, with basic flexion, extension, and straight (normal) movements. These movements can be identified using surface electromyography (sEMG) signals that allow human interaction with computers through muscle activity, referred to as a muscle-computer interface. This research aims to perform the classification of flexion, extension, and normal movements as an initial stage of developing a muscle-computer interface system. The main stages of this research include data acquisition, signal processing, and motion classification with a support vector machine (SVM) offline and not in real-time, using root mean square (RMS) features with a moving window. This study successfully designed an effective sEMG signal measurement and processing method for motion classification. The designed classification algorithm showed high performance with an accuracy of 90.27%, precision of 90.61%, sensitivity of 90.17%, and f1-score of 90.27%, demonstrating the ability of the muscle-computer interface to classify wrist movements with a high degree of accuracy.
Den litterære sakprosaen – en begynnende og utforskende avgrensing av et fagfelt
Authors: Berge Kjell Lars , Tønnesson Johan L. , Strand Offerdal Truls , Kaasa Janicke
Published: October 2024

I denne artikkelen presenteres det forfatterne har valgt å kalle en utforskende oversikt over forskningslitteratur om de fenomenene som Johan L. Tønnesson i Hva er sakprosa (2008/2012) omtaler som «litterær sakprosa». Arbeidet med forskningsoversikten har bekreftet at den litterære sakprosaen i oppsiktsvekkende liten grad er studert vitenskapelig. En viktig årsak kan være at sakprosaen betraktet som «litteratur» ikke later til å ha vært prioritert i noen etablerte forskningsmiljøer, slik som litteraturvitenskap eller medievitenskap. En manglende konsensus om hva denne typen tekster skal kalles, kan forklares med denne svake institusjonelle forankringen for sakprosaforskningen. På bakgrunn av denne situasjonen har forfatterne kalt denne forskningsoversikten «begynnende» og «utforskende». «Begynnende» fordi dette arbeidet har vist at det finnes svært få tilgjengelige forskningsoversikter som prioriterer «litterær sakprosa». «Utforskende» fordi forfatterne legger til grunn at oversikten skal etablere en slags state of the art for forskningen på litterær sakprosa. Forfatterne tar utgangspunkt i norsk og delvis nordisk forskning, men inkluderer også to relativt nylig (i 2024) publiserte internasjonale forskningsoversikter med forankring i forskningsmiljøer i henholdsvis Europa og USA.

Published: October 2024

The study sought to assess the effectiveness of pre-retirement training programme in imparting necessary life skills to prospective retirees at TANROADS. In specifically, TANROADS in Dar es Salaam was the site of the investigation. A qualitative technique was used to collect the primary data, which was done through focus group discussions and interviews with 30 individuals. The study's conclusions showed that, TANROADS routinely offered pre-retirement training for prospective retirees. Additionally, it was shown that, participants in pre-retirement training programme receive diverse life skills instruction. People are taught skills including self-assurance in managing retirement life, investment skills, business abilities, and attention to maintaining one's health. The government must formalise pre-retirement training programme by passing legislation that establishes rules and a framework for how this programme should be created, carried out, and assessed. The law must also outline the length and frequency of training sessions. According to the study's findings, TANROADS and the government as a whole must provide sufficient funds each financial year to support pre-retirement training programme for TANROADS employees as well as public sector workers nationwide.

Promulgation of the 1946 constitution of the People’s Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina as the final stage of the People’s Liberation Struggle
Authors: Attila Hoare Marko
Published: October 2024

The People’s Liberation Struggle in Bosnia-Hercegovina, led by the Communist Party of Yugoslavia (KPJ) but incorporating a broader section of Bosnian society, was a BosnianHercegovinian national-liberation struggle. It was waged under Bosnian-Hercegovinian patriotic slogans, organised administratively through a Bosnian-Hercegovinian framework and aimed ultimately at establishment of Bosnian-Hercegovinian statehood within a federal Yugoslavia. The promulgation of the constitution of the People’s Republic of BosniaHercegovina represented the culmination of this movement. Although the KPJ ensured this constitution would accord with its goals and policy, it had not worked out its goals beforehand in its entirety. Nor was it able to choreograph the process of promulgation seamlessly. Disagreements and tensions in the movement therefore emerged, reflecting its heterogeneity and the wider tensions in Bosnian-Hercegovinian society.

This review examines the epidemiological understanding of diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases as interconnected nutritional disorders. These conditions, sharing common dietary and lifestyle risk factors, collectively represent significant global public health challenges that require integrated investigation and intervention approaches. Epidemiological approaches, including descriptive, analytical, and interventional designs, emphasizing their strengths and limitations in investigating disease prevalence, risk factors, and potential interventions. It scrutinizes the utilisation of routine population data and surveillance systems in estimating disease burden and assessing intervention effectiveness, focusing on large-scale population-based studies and national surveys. Advanced statistical analyses enhance data interpretation while accounting for demographic variables, ensuring precise comparative analyses across populations. The application of standardization techniques and robust statistical methods strengthens epidemiological findings and minimizes potential biases. A coordinated, multidisciplinary approach is essential for translating epidemiological evidence into effective public health interventions, emphasizing collaboration between epidemiologists, healthcare practitioners, and policymakers. This analysis provides insights for researchers, public health professionals, and policymakers engaged in addressing nutrition-related chronic diseases through epidemiological approaches, highlighting the field's potential to mitigate the escalating burden of these conditions while acknowledging its limitations.

Traditionally, the coal has stood as a resourceful entity for the energy demands of the society. The coalmines are the driving forces in the sufficing the energy and economy of the nation. Certainly, the existence of coal and its excavation is a much aspired endeavours for the development of any society. There are numerous prospective, functional and abandoned coalmines all over the world. Along with the intrinsic worth of the coal excavations, many studies have decisively elucidated the associated environmental complications. The ecological devastation is one of them. The ecological sphere whether it be macro or micro, is a fragile entity and must be taken care of accordingly. The process of coal excavations involves large scale landscape alteration where the entire native vegetation is removed. The ecological domain developed through an extensive period over the landscape vanishes in no time. The hydrological fluctuation also in terms of water chemistry destroys the aquatic habitat prominently known as hydroecology. The microclimatic shift is also a factor affecting drastically on the associated ecologies. The present review article strives to understand the various influencers in the coalfields dominating over the accompanying ecologies through selective endeavours executed all over the world. It also deliberates the probable measures to be taken to shield the associated ecologies in and around coalfields including the sensitization drives for protecting ecologies.
