Investigation of Stretch Properties of Different Stitch Types in Garments Made of Elastane Woven Fabrics
Authors: GELERİ Kıvanç , GÜRARDA Ayça , ÇEVEN Erhan Kenan
Published: August 2021

In recent years, garments made of fabrics with elastane are highly preferred. A garment made of fabric with elastane is able to stretch by about 10-30% and recovery immediately after release. In the apparel industry, sewing should not prevent the fabric from stretching in the garments made from woven fabrics with elastane. The elasticity of the seams of the garments consisting of elastic fabrics is very important.

In this study, it is aimed to examine the stretch and permanent elongation properties of different stitch types of garments made of elastane woven fabrics. For this purpose, 5 different stitch types were selected as lockstitch, zig zag stitch, two thread chain stitch, three thread overlock stitch and five thread overlock stitch, and these stitches were sewn at different stitch densities (3 - 4 and 5 stitches / cm), with different sewing threads (spun polyester, core spun (poly / poly), nylon and elastic sewing thread) with different ticket numbers (80 and 120). The stretch and permanent elongation values of the sewn fabric samples were examined.
Grinding, Melting and Reshaping of EoL Thermoplastic Polymers Reinforced with Recycled Carbon Fibers
Authors: Donatelli A. , Casciaro G. , Marcianò T. , Caretto F.
Published: August 2021

This article assesses the technical feasibility of a recycling process based on grinding, melting and re-shaping of carbon fibers (CFs) reinforced thermoplastic polymers, in order to obtain new products that can be introduced in different markets, depending on mechanical properties retained. The idea at the basis of our study is that this kind of recycling process lies at the edge of the stages of recycling and re-use of materials, considering that the latter is preferable when considering the waste management hierarchy. Lower cost and similar mechanical strength of virgin CFs allowed the spread of recycled CFs in the automotive sector in the form of composite materials. Taking into account the Directive 2000/53/EC that sets out measures to prevent and limit waste from end-of-life (EoL) vehicles and their components, and ensures that where possible this is reused, recycled or recovered, we considered worth to investigate the recyclability of composite materials made with recycled CFs when they will reach the state of EoL materials. Considering this premise, an additional scope of this paper is therefore to provide some useful information about the possibility to perform a multiple closed loop recycling of rCF thermoplastic composites. Experiments carried out demonstrated that re-shaping of composites is technically feasible. Some square plates were produced without any setback. The mass balance of the recycling process demonstrated that about 88% of the EoL material can be recovered. Calculation of energy consumption showed that approximately 16 MJ are necessary in the treatment of 1 kg of EoL composites.

MONEY SUPPLY AND INFLATION IN NIGERIA: THE MYTH OF
THE MONETARIST THEORY OF INFLATION
Authors: Danlami Ibrahim Abdulhamid , Hidthiir Mohamad Helmi , Hassan Sallahuddin
Published: August 2021

The inability of Nigeria to make its inflation rate a single digit motivates this study. This paper
aims to empirically investigate whether inflation is solely caused by the increase in money
supply beyond what is required by the economy, as maintained by monetarists using Nigerian
data. Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model (ARDL) was used as the tool of econometric
analysis on Nigerian time series data for 48 years. The ARDL was chosen because unit root
tests were conducted. The results show that variables are not integrated in the same order.
Money supply increment is demonstrated to be inflationary only in the short-run. The existence
of other factors that influence inflation in the country is also evident. While money supply has
no significant influence on inflation, the GDP and the constant have a significant influence on
inflation in the long-run. Therefore, justification is provided for the myth of monetarist theory
of inflation, claiming that money supply increment is a sole source of inflation, especially in
Nigeria. Even though the result of the Wald test shows that the coefficients of money supply
combined have a significant effect on inflation in conformity with the monetarist theoretical
arguments, such effects are limited to short-run only. The findings of the research are limited
to Nigeria whose data are used, based on ARDL as the econometrics techniques applied, for a
period of 48 years from 1970–2017. Generally speaking, explanations for theories regarding
inflation, especially in developing nations, should not be taken for granted. The research
empirically demonstrates that the monetarist theory of inflation is a myth and not reality by
using Nigerian data. It also suggests that other theories should be empirically tested to check
which one best explain the nature of inflation dynamics in a country to proffer a better solution
to a high inflation rate problem.

Authors: Che Mat Siti Hadijah , Sathiman Salmah , Hamid Fatimah
Published: August 2021

Petani dan pertanian sering dikaitkan dengan kemiskinan. Petani padi antara mereka yang mempunyai pendapatan yang rendah. Justeru, kerajaan mencadangkan agar mereka terlibat dalam aktiviti ekonomi tambahan yang dapat memberikan pulangan yang tinggi. Sehubungan itu, objektif artikel ini adalah untuk mengetahui struktur pendapatan pesawah dan aktiviti ekonomi yang berjaya meningkatkan pendapatan pesawah serta tempoh masa yang dapat disingkatkan sekiranya pesawah mempunyai pendapatan lain selain daripada pendapatan padi. Sampel kajian ialah pesawah di IADA KETARA. Soal selidik telah diedarkan kepada 353 orang pesawah. Kajian mendapati majoriti pesawah (83.3%) berada dalam kategori B40. Hanya 16.4% dalam kategori M40 serta hanya seorang dalam kategori T20. Seramai 64.6% pesawah terlibat dalam aktiviti ekonomi lain selain padi bagi meningkatkan pendapatan. Keputusan kajian juga mendapati pesawah yang terlibat dalam pelbagai aktiviti ekonomi tambahan yang lain lebih cepat untuk keluar daripada kepompong kemiskinan berbanding dengan mereka yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan daripada sumber aktiviti tambahan yang lain. Sebagai contoh, jika pertumbuhan pendapatan pesawah adalah sebanyak 5%, purata masa yang diambil untuk keluar daripada kepompong kemiskinan bagi mereka yang miskin adalah selama 14.10 tahun sekiranya mereka memiliki pendapatan daripada sumber padi sahaja manakala masa yang diperlukan adalah lebih pendek iaitu 7.82 tahun bagi mereka yang mempunyai sumber pendapatan padi dan bukan padi. Bagi pesawah yang mempunyai pendapatan padi dan pendapatan bukan padi, mereka dijangka dapat menjimatkan masa untuk bebas daripada kemiskinan selama 6.28 tahun (14.10 tahun tolak 7.82 tahun) berbanding dengan mereka yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan daripada sumber bukan padi. Peningkatan produktiviti melalui pengembelingan tenaga muda dan penggunaan teknologi serta penglibatan aktif pihak kerajaan dan swasta adalah perlu bagi meningkatkan pendapatan dan kesejahteraan petani padi.
ASSESSMENT OF PUBLIC EXPENDITURE EFFICIENCY: A REVIEW
Authors: Yun Wong Sing
Published: August 2021

Public spending is considered an important tool in a government’s continuous efforts to
improve the delivery of the public sector and achieve growth objectives. The increasing
demand for higher expenditures may create a tax burden and pressurised the budgetary
allocation. This leads to the rising concern to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of
public expenditure. A highly efficient public sector will likely be able to produce more
outputs with less spending on inputs. Hence, the primary aim of this paper is to provide
a comprehensive review of the growing literature on public expenditure efficiency.
Against this background, an extended review will be discussed on the determinants that
influence the efficiency of public spending. As such, the objective of this paper can be
summarised to address the following key questions. Firstly, how to measure the efficiency
and effectiveness of public expenditure? Secondly, what are the determinants that
influence the efficiency of public spending? The answers to these questions will help solve
the recent problem of budget constraints faced by policymakers.
EFFECT OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS ON VALUE RELEVANCE:
EVIDENCE FROM LISTED MANUFACTURING FIRMS IN NIGERIA
Authors: Mue Ephraim Oryina , Suleiman Salami
Published: August 2021

The increasing importance and role of intangible assets in today’s economic environment is
a source of concern for scholars and accounting practitioners. As an attempt to explore the
relevance of reported intangible assets, the study investigated the market value relevance of
different intangible asset (intellectual properties, computer software cost, and goodwill)
reported by listed manufacturing firms in Nigeria. To achieve the research objective, the
study adopted a correlational research design. The study utilized secondary data extracted
from the annual reports and accounts of manufacturing firms listed on the Nigerian stock
exchange. The study concentrated on firms that reported components of intangible assets for
six years (2013-2019). The model was estimated using the random effect regression
technique. The findings revealed intellectual properties to be positively and significantly
associated with the market value of listed manufacturing firms in Nigeria. However,
goodwill was shown to have a negative and significant relationship with market value. Based
on the findings, the study recommends, amongst others, that the management of
manufacturing firms bring their expertise to develop innovative technologies and business
adaptations, as well as direct policies that will improve brand names and trademarks and
protect patents and other intellectual properties as they will impact the market price.

Authors: Suhardi Bambang , Elvira Lulu , Astuti Rahmaniyah Dwi
Published: August 2021

Good equipment and product design are meaningless if there is no good layout planning. Problems owned by PT. Pilar Kekar Plasindo occurs in the production of small polyethylene. This is because small polyethylene production has large material total transfer distance. Small polyethylene problems include the distance between stations, cross-movement, backtracking, and the broken machine that is still placed in the production section. These conditions make the material handling costs and distance large. Therefore, this research aims to produce a layout design of production facilities that can minimize the distance and cost of material movement. The method used in this study is Systematic Layout Planning (SLP). Three alternative designs were compared, and the second proposed facility layout was chosen because it can reduce the total cost of material transfer by 68.3% and reduce the distance of material transfer by 59.6% from the initial facility layout.

Authors: Li Fangyuan , Lu Ruihui , Zeng Cheng , Li Xin , Xue Qing
Published: August 2021

Backgrounds

Despite the great advances in assisted reproductive technology (ART), poor ovarian response (POR) is still one of the most challenging tasks in reproductive medicine. This predictive model we developed aims to predict the individual probability of clinical pregnancy failure for poor ovarian responders (PORs) under in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI).

Methods

The nomogram was developed in 281 patients with POR according to the Bologna criteria from January 2016 to December 2019, with 179 in the training group and 102 in the validation group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify characteristics that were associated with clinical pregnancy failure. The nomogram was constructed based on regression coefficients. Performance was evaluated using both calibration and discrimination.

Results

Age >35 years, body mass index (BMI) >24 kg/m2, basic follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) >10 mIU/ml, basic E2 >60 pg/ml, type B or C of endometrium on human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) day, and the number of high-quality embryos <2 were associated with pregnancy failure of POR patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the training set is 0.786 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.710–0.861), and AUC in the validation set is 0.748 (95% CI: 0.668–0.827), showing a satisfactory goodness of fit and discrimination ability in this nomogram.

Conclusion

Our nomogram can predict the probability of clinical pregnancy failure in PORs before embryo transfer in IVF/ICSI procedure, to help practitioners make appropriate clinical decisions and to help infertile couples manage their expectations.

Authors: Simonov I. V.
Published: August 2021

The causes of industrial accidents are most often based on the human factor. Industrial companies today strive for zero injuries, so they try to improve the quality of employee training. To achieve these goals, many of them implement solutions based on immersive technologies in the production process. For example, simulators for training employees to work with equipment based on virtual reality (VR) or three-dimensional graphics (3-dimensional, 3D). Such technologies replace the practice of working on real equipment and allow you to develop skills more deeply in a safe environment. In addition, with the help of virtual reality, you can simulate any emergency situations that are unacceptable to create on real objects. All this subsequently helps to reduce the negative impact of the human factor in production, which means that it reduces the likelihood of injuries, accidents or even deaths at enterprises.

Different coding systems for the modeling of lactation milk yields of Awassi sheep
Authors: GÜNGÖR İrfan , ATASOY Fatih
Published: August 2021

This study evaluated the feasibility of using different coding systems for categorical variables when using continuous and categorical variables together for the modeling of the lactation milk yield of Awassi sheep. In the study, when all variables were included in the model, and Dummy Coding and Effect Coding methods were used for age, the effects of lactation duration, average daily milk yield, type of birth, and age 5 group were found to be statistically significant in addition to the constant term. When the Deviation Coding method was used for age, the effects of lactation duration and average daily milk yield were found to be statistically significant in addition to the constant term. On the other hand, when Forward and Backward Coding methods were used, the effect of the age 5 group was found to be statistically significant, along with the effects of lactation duration and average daily milk yield. The results of the study indicated that different results can be obtained depending on the various coding systems used. The results also indicated that the choice of coding system affected the interpretation of the obtained coefficients. Therefore, it can be stated that the aims of the researcher in the study should be defined clearly and the proper codding system should be selected according to the variables to be included in the model.

The study aimed to evaluate the comparative anatomy of the liver and intrahepatic branching of the portal vein of the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) and the American mink (Neovison vison). Due to their highly valuable fur, minks have expanded their range to many parts of Europe and become available for many biomedical studies. In this study, ten adult minks and five otters were used. The intrahepatic branching of the portal vein was studied by the combined injection and dissection technique. The macroscopic anatomy of the liver revealed that both species have six-lobed livers, although differences in shape, size and some additional fissures were documented. The portal vein, upon entering the liver, divides into the right and left branches. The branching pattern in otters had an additional branch at this level with a caudate process branch. The right branch of the portal vein ramified in the right lateral lobe and the caudate process in the mink livers, while the right branch in the otter livers only distributed functional blood to the right lateral lobe. The larger left portal branch, with its transverse and umbilical parts, ramified in the left liver portion, along with the quadrate, right medial lobe and papillary process.

The aim of this study was to investigate the lipogenic and inflammatory effects of low and high percentage fructose solutions in rats. Wistar albino rats were fed with fructose solutions for 10 weeks. The groups were as follows: Cont (Control), F15 (Fructose 15%), F30 (Fructose 30%), and F60 (Fructose 60%). Rats' body weights were measured weekly. Also, lipogenic and inflammatory gene expression levels, biochemical parameters, and histopathological changes in the liver were investigated. After 10 weeks, it was observed that the animals in the F60 were the heaviest, while the animals in the F30 were the lightest. In all experimental groups, triglycerides were significantly higher than those of controls (P<0.05). In F30 and F60, TNFα, IL-6, and IL-1β were upregulated in the liver compared to control (P<0.05). In addition, SREBP-1c, ChREBP, FAS, ACACA, and SCD-1 were upregulated in all fructose feeding groups compared to Cont (P<0.05). The livers of rats in the F30 and F60 groups had degenerative changes and steatosis. The most detrimental effects of fructose were observed in F60. The concentration of fructose was found to be a very important factor for maintaining normal liver physiology at the molecular level.

In this case, it was presented a case of complete uterine prolapse in a cat following a third parturition at the age of 18 months. Upon physical examination complete uterine prolapse was diagnosed due to a mass protruding from the vulva which included both uterine horns. After the invagination and eversion were corrected and the uterus was relocated to its anatomical position, ovariohysterectomy was performed. Sutures were removed ten days after the operation. Following shrinking of uterus by using the hypertonic fluid and repositioning, ovariohysterectomy is a suitable and reliable option for cats with complete uterine prolapse.
Significado de la libertad y del cautiverio desde el relato de vida. Joaquín Mujica
Authors: González Bravo Albany Valentina , Ortega Meneses Javier Alejandro
Published: August 2021

La protesta representa el acto de expresión de descontento civil que por hoy es amparado como un derecho. Sin embargo, sistemas de gobierno han impuesto la privación de libertad como barrera ante el descontento, generando miedo, irritabilidad y desconcierto. Por tanto, la investigación tuvo como objetivo, interpretar el significado que le  da un manifestante privado de libertad a la libertad y al cautiverio.  Se utilizó la investigación convivida en concordancia a la metódica del relato- de-vida de Moreno, perteneciente al paradigma cualitativo, esto a través de la in-vivencia y la implicancia  que se desarrolla, y el conocimiento del mundo de vida de Joaquín. Asimismo, el estudio se basó en el apalabramiento de los significados, para llevar un proceso de interpretación-comprensión. El logos alcanza su actualización a través de la libertad, la  vinculación  familiar,  la religiosidad y las intenciones altruistas, esto mediante recursos neológicos y valores que permiten el vivenciar.
