Authors: Farid Nait Amara , Tahar Baouni
Published: June 2022

This article emphasizes on the analysis of the vulnerability of people physical infrastructuresâ mobility at a territorial level, in an area with a radius of 200Km around Algiers site. After defining the terminology used, the methodology has been detailed in four parts. The first part is devoted to the understanding of peopleâs daily transportations, and the infrastructural chain of transport system in the capital of Algiers. This part allows us to identify and localize, in a second part, the key-infrastructures, major pieces of roads networks and transport. In the third part, these key-infrastructures vulnerabilities were evaluated, which predispose them to damages and failures. The objective of the third part was to understand risks involved by the entire areas studied, including the possible reduction in the accessibility of different spaces due to operational loss of key-infrastructures. Different scenarios have been envisaged, placing into perspective the predictable spatial repercussions, at the capitalâs level. The results are expressed by maps and time access curves for several types of issues (between different urban areas, and access to major medical infrastructures of Algiers).
Adsorption of Nutrient Ions into Biofilm Matrices of Natural Microbial Consortium
Authors: Susanti Yogita Ayu Dwi , Musa Muhammad , Kurniawan Andi
Published: June 2022

The presence of nutrient ions significantly affects the biotic components in the ecosystem, including the microbial consortium. Nutrient ions are an essential part of the aquatic ecosystem, which significantly affects microbial life. Most microbes live by forming biofilms that can uptake nutrient ions from the surrounding water. However, studies reporting the characteristics of uptake of nutrient ions by biofilms of the natural microbial consortium have been rarely reported. Understanding the uptake characteristics of cationic and anionic nutrients is an essential foundation for understanding biofilms as the predominant habitat of aquatic microbes. This study aims to analyze the adsorption characteristics of cationic nutrient (ammonium) and anionic nutrient (nitrate) by biofilm matrices. This study indicates that cationic nutrients can be adsorbed more into the biofilm matrix than anionic nutrients. The adsorption process of nutrient ions by biofilms is a fast process that allows the concentration of nutrient ions inside the biofilm matrix to be much higher than the surrounding water. According to the results of this study, the passive uptake of nutrient ions into the biofilm matrix is an important ecological factor providing nutrient ions for aquatic microbial life.

Published: June 2022

The extensive use of antibiotics for therapeutic and prophylactic utilization in livestock production has increased the possibility of antibiotic pollution of agro-ecosystem. Manure from livestock production usually serves as raw materials in the production of organic fertilizer and other soil amendments. It is an accepted recycling technique for agricultural waste such as manure turning it into a valuable resource but poses a range of risk to human health, economic productivity, ecosystem services and long-term sustainability of agricultural activity. The study aims to reduce the risk by removing antibiotics in poultry manure through inoculant induced composting. Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus was screened as to antibiotic resistance, potential for mass production and performance as inoculant during composting to remove tylosin and oxytetracycline. Results showed that both fungal species were resistant to both the antibiotics, has increased growth at various concentration of antibiotic and showed potential for mass production by having luxuriant growth in various substrates. Both species also belong to the primary fungal community present during the time of significant antibiotic removal and may contribute to the treatment of antibiotics in poultry manure.

Authors: Patil S.D. , Morbale S.T. , Patel N.T.
Published: June 2022

Batch mode adsorption studies of Fuchsin basic (FB) on different agricultural waste materials were carried out using parameters including initial FB concentration, adsorbent dosage, agitation time, particle size of adsorbent and temperature. The best fitting isotherm model is elucidated using linear regression coefficient (R2). Both Langmuir (R2?0.998) and Freundlich (R2 = 0.968 to 0.986) isotherms were found to be best fitting model for the adsorption studies. The monolayer (maximum) adsorption capacities were found to be between 142.857 to 250 mg/g of given adsorbents. Lagergren pseudo -second order model best fits the kinetics of adsorption as qe(the) values are in consistent with qe(exp) with whole range of agitation time. Adsorption process was found to be directly proportional to temperature but inversely proportional to particle size of adsorbent. Thermodynamic analysis showed that adsorption was favourable, spontaneous, increased disorder and randomness at the solid- solution interface of FB with adsorbents. Mangrove plant leaf powder was found to have greater adsorption capacity towards FB amongst the adsorbents under study.

Integration of networks and computing to build a drone swarm management system as a network management system
Authors: Довгаль Виталий Анатольевич
Published: June 2022

В последнее время усиливается значение практического применения мультиагентных систем, таких как рои дронов, что обусловлено появлением множества устройств, способных коммуницировать между собой с целью их кооперативного поведения. Однако автоматизация управления роем дронов является сложной задачей из-за наличия постоянно изменяющихся условий окружающей среды и ограничений каналов беспроводной связи, используемых каждым беспилотным летательным аппаратом в стае. Для решения указанных проблем в статье предлагается рассматривать рой дронов как сетевую систему управления (Networked Control Systems, NCS), в которой управление всей системой осуществляется в рамках сети беспроводной связи. Такой подход обусловлен тесной взаимосвязью между сетевыми и вычислительными системами, используемыми для эффективной поддержки основных функций управления роем: сбора и обмена данными, принятия решений по распределению команд управления и т.п. Представлен обзор принципов разработки самоорганизующегося роя дронов в качестве NCS посредством интеграции сетевой системы и вычислительной системы. Кроме того, проводится анализ интеграции указанных систем для повышения производительности роя дронов.

Recently, the importance of the practical application of multi-agent systems, such as swarms of drones, has been increasing, due to the emergence of many devices capable of communicating with each other for the purpose of their cooperative behavior. However, automating drone swarm control is challenging, due to the presence of constantly changing environmental conditions and the limitations of the wireless communication channels used by each unmanned aerial vehicle in the flock. To solve these problems, the paper proposes to consider a swarm of drones as a network control system (Networked Control Systems, NCS), in which the entire system is controlled within a wireless communication network. This approach is due to the close relationship between network and computing systems used to effectively support the main functions of swarm management: data collection and exchange, decision-making on the distribution of control commands, etc. The paper provides an overview of the principles of developing a self-organizing drone swarm as an NCS through the integration of a network system and a computing system. In addition, the paper analyzes the integration of these systems to improve the performance of a swarm of drones.

Published: June 2022

Purpose: Digital marketing trends change time from time; therefore, Small and Medium-sized enterprises often face challenges while adopting digital marketing strategies. These challenges are caused by the richness and complexity of tactics to optimize growth, customer engagement, buyer behaviors, and business continuity. This paper focuses on the significance of adopting digital marketing strategies through the 6W Marketing Model for the continuity of Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs). To achieve this goal, the nature of digital marketing strategies for SMEs, such as content marketing, social media marketing, and email marketing, were analyzed.

Study design/methodology/approach: A thematic literature review was conducted to explore the significance of digital marketing strategies for the continuity of SMEs. We synthesized the available literature that interconnects digital marketing developments with SMEs. The data was obtained through mixed, quantitative, and qualitative methods.

Findings: The findings underlined the need and significance of digital marketing awareness for business continuity. Consequently, respondents recognized the role of the 6W marketing model to assist in making informed decisions on which type of digital marketing strategies to employ. Besides, this study ignores and does not consider specifics of the algorithms which give a content ranking. It is imperative to understand the role of these algorithms, how they work and how to deal with them to get the most out of the campaigns. Low-quality or relevancy scores will affect the campaign and bring lower results.

Originality/value: This paper brings together the challenges and complexity of utilizing digital marketing strategies for SMEs' business continuity. Marketers always search for the best elements for strategic campaigns. Hence, based on the research, the 6W marketing model is proposed to understand better the impact of each digital marketing strategy on business continuity.

Spontaneous intraventricular pneumocephalus associated with transient aphasia: case report and review of the literature
Authors: Barrientos Zindya , Contreras Camilo
Published: June 2022

Introduction: Pneumocephalus or the presence of air in the cranial cavity is common after a craniotomy and in patients with traumatic brain injury; however, its spontaneous appearance is extremely rare. So far, very few cases of spontaneous intraventricular pneumocephalus have been reported. We present the case of a patient who developed spontaneous intraventricular pneumocephalus, which required a craniotomy for surgical correction. Clinical Case: A 59-year-old female patient with a history of left suboccipital craniotomy and resection of the left vestibular Schwannoma who after 2 years presented headache of 3 weeks duration and aphasia of expression. On examination: Mild expressive aphasia, surgical scar with no evidence of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage. Brain tomography (CT) showed pneumoventricle in the frontal and temporal horns of the left lateral ventricle and deviation from the midline; radionuclide cisternography was negative for CSF fistula and CSF analysis was normal. A left subtemporal craniotomy was performed, finding a bone defect in the petrous portion of the temporal bone above the internal auditory canal associated with a meningocele of the medial base of the skull, which was sealed with bone wax, fat, fascia lata, and biological glue. Conclusion: The first case of spontaneous intraventricular pneumocephalus without identifiable CSF fistula is described, which made this case extremely rare. The treatment performed was a surgical correction of the meningocele through a subtemporal extradural approach, and the patient presented a favorable evolution with the improvement of the aphasia. Keywords: Pneumocephalus, Aphasia, Meningocele, Craniotomy, Temporal Bone (source: MeSH NLM)
Salir de la cárcel, retornar a la pobreza en el Gran Santiago
Authors: Godoy Delgado Ignacio , Sanhueza Guillermo E.
Published: June 2022

El presente artículo analiza el proceso de retorno de individuos que han estado privados de libertad en el sistema penitenciario chileno (han “egresado de la cárcel”) a sus comunidades una vez que cumplen sus condenas, a la luz tanto de conceptos y teorías relacionadas a lo que se ha denominado prisoner reentry, como también de diversos indicadores de pobreza provenientes de fuentes secundarias. Para ello se ensamblaron y analizaron datos administrativos provistos tanto por Gendarmería de Chile (número de egresos carcelarios por año y unidad penal) como por sistemas de registro disponibles al público (habitantes totales por comuna, porcentaje de población en pobreza), con un foco en las 52 comunas de la Región Metropolitana. Uno de nuestros hallazgos muestra una fuerte correlación entre número de egresos carcelarios y número de personas en condición de pobreza en los territorios comunales donde retornan los ex reclusos (r Pearson = 0,80). Finalmente, se discuten las implicancias de estos hallazgos no solo para la política pública en materia de reinserción social sino también en cuanto a subrayar el hecho de que en estos territorios socialmente desventajados muchas veces los derechos sociales básicos no han sido cubiertos mínimamente, transformándose en generadores de delincuencia.

Authors: Barajas Archila Christian José
Published: June 2022

Se analiza la dinámica de la fecundidad del Área Metropolitana del Valle de Aburra (AMVA), mediante la comparación de dos contextos. El primero es un análisis por sectores (urbano-rural), mientras que, el segundo se orienta en una desagregación por estratos sociales del AMVA, de tal manera que se confronten las diferencias y semejanzas, de estas dos realidades. Se tomaron tres indicadores demográficos los cuales son: la Tasa Global de Fecundidad (TGF), la Tasa Bruta de Natalidad (TBN) y la Tasa de Fecundidad General (TFG). Los principales hallazgos, de las tres variables de la fecundidad son: que algunas de las tasas del sector rural son más altas, que el sector urbano, tal como ocurre en los antecedentes. Mientras que, al analizar las variables por nivel económico, los estratos bajos, del sector urbano sus tasas fueron más elevadas que en los niveles económicos altos. No obstante, en algunos indicadores de los estratos altos del sector rural, sus tasas fueron más elevadas que los estratos bajos.

Authors: Arifianto Yonathan Alex , DOMINGGUS DICKY
Published: June 2022

Sejak jatuh ke dalam dosa, manusia terpisah dari Allah. Allah menjadi pribadi yang kudus sedangkan manusia menjadi mahkluk yang berdosa. Dampak yang ada bukan hanya dari sisi keterpisahan tetapi kehidupan manusia yang tidak memiliki pengharapan. Sejak Yesus mati untuk menebus manusia, setiap orang diampuni dan dibenarkan dari dosa. Sejak itulah, hidup manusia memiliki pengharapan dan kepastian akan keselamatan di dalam Yesus. Roma 1;16-17 merupakan tulisan Paulus tentang misi. Di dalam tulisannya, Paulus memiliki keyakinan bahwa Injil sebagai kekuatan Allah yang menyelamatkan setiap orang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pustaka dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif. Berdasarkan pembahasan yang ada Injil merupakan kekuatan bagi semua orang dan menjadi tugas bagi orang percaya untuk terlibat dalam pemberitaan injil dan menjadikan penginjilan sebagai gaya hidup sehari-hari.

Published: June 2022

AbstractThe church has an important role in a movement for the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Great Commission is the center of the church in carrying out the mission of the Kingdom of God in this wolrd. Since the days of the early church, the church has experienced tremendous growth. Many souls believed in Jesus and experienced tremendous spiritual growth. The extraordinary growth of God’s church makes all components of the church must be well integrated into a unified whole. All of this cannot be separated from the Lord Jesus prayer so that His disciples remain united in the project of the great commission. But in reality, the church that should have remained united as the Lord Jesus prayer in John 17:1-26 did not materialize well. The church began to fokus on worldly interests and was no longer a universal church unit. Some of the problem that occurred, the disorganization of the church which is often referred to as ecumenical did not happen well, because of differences in doctrine, there are elements of self-interest, leadership problem and finanacial problems. So that the essence of the church to carry out the mission of the great commsission has shifted. This writing uses a descriptive method of literature by extracting library data ro strengthen understanding as a whole. The goal is that through writing, namely, First, church leaders realize how important a unity is in God’s church. Second, the church becomes a pleasant family as a member of the body of Christ. Third, believers are focused again on thinking about the realization of the Lord Jesus prayer, so that they become one.. Keywords:  Ecumenical, Unity, Church, Christian, Jesus Prayer.

The leaf extract of Aonla and Ber showed allelopathc influence over the test crops- Cluster Bean, Moth Bean, Brinjal and Mustard. Cluster Bean and Moth Bean showed significant reduction in germination and seedling growth characters treated with aqueous leaf extract of Karonda. While Brinjal and Mustard recorded a significant increase in these characters following use of leaf extract of Karonda as compared to control. Significant differences in soil nutrient status with respect to N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Mn and Fe content between tree-crop agric system and sole cropping were recorded while non-significant differences were obtained in zinc content among different treatments during initiation and termination of experiment. The nutrient status was recorded to be more in the soils under tree-crop agric system as compared to the soils under sole cropping. A decreasing trend in the nutrient status was observed with increasing depth of soil profile.

Ultradźwiękowa technika haptyczna to nowa, wchodząca właśnie na rynek komercyjny technika, umożliwiająca tworzenie w powietrzu nad przetwornikiem haptycznym niewidocznych obiektów, które mogą być wyczuwane za pomocą zmysłu dotyku. W technice tej skoncentrowana i odpowiednio modulowana wiązka ultradźwięków wzbudza drgania skóry człowieka, pobudzając w ten sposób znajdujące się w niej mechanoreceptory i wywołując uczucie dotyku. Technika ta ma wiele potencjalnych zastosowań – od wzbogacania rzeczywistości wirtualnej, przez interfejsy sterujące, do pomocy dla osób niepełnosprawnych wzrokowo. Z drugiej jednak strony, ze względu na zastosowanie ultradźwięków o wysokich poziomach ciśnienia akustycznego, ta technika może się stać źródłem zagrożeń dla użytkownika. W artykule omówiono zasadę działania ultradźwiękowej techniki haptycznej, jej możliwe zastosowania oraz dostępne na rynku komercyjnym ultradźwiękowe przetworniki haptyczne. Przedstawiono również wyniki wstępnej oceny zagrożenia hałasem ultradźwiękowym podczas korzystania z ultradźwiękowej techniki haptycznej, oparte na badaniach hałasu ultradźwiękowego, przeprowadzonych w odniesieniu do jednego z omówionych przetworników.

There are several mathematical theorem and other equation which is used frequently. However many researchers or scholar unable to prove them mathematically. One of the famous example is Pythagrous theorem, Budhayana, Pingala, Fibonacci series or even (a+b)2=a2+b2+2ab. It is indeed requirement to understand the basic proof of thiese mathematical theorem and its contradictory. This paper tried to provide some basic proof for these famous theorem and its relations with existing approaches for various applications.
The Religiosity of Translator: Is it an Echo of the Heart or the Mind?
Authors: Halimah Ahmad Mustafa
Published: June 2022

This article offers a critical appraisal of the daynunah [religiosity] of the mind and its manifestation in the work of the English-Arabic-English translator. It is an attempt to provide a novel concept of the mind and its religiosity from an Islamic socio-cultural-psychological perspective and then apply it to a translator and investigate whether their translation is the echo of the heart or mind. English-Arabic-English translation examples from media translated texts were used for analysis and discussion. Results of the analysis and discussion have indicated that the religiosity of the translator resonates the echoes of the heart more than those of the mind and that there is an urgent need for guidelines to allow translators to work in a more balanced and unbiased manner. Researchers in other fields of knowledge could also apply this new concept to, for example, the religiosities of academics, doctors, scientists, lawyers, businessmen and politicians.

The present study explored the extent to which action research is practiced by English language teachers and the factors that affect action research implementation in the Omani ELT context. Additionally, it sought to identify different solutions that could be implemented to strengthen action research practices from the point of view of English language teachers. Data was collected through a questionnaire that was distributed among 366 English language teachers, followed by semi-structured interviews with 8 English language teachers who were actively engaged in conducting action research. There was a low level of practice of action research among English language teachers in the Omani public schools. The study also showed that insufficient time, heavy workload, lack of colleagues’ assistance and support, and lack of motivation were the main factors that hindered action research practices in the Omani ELT context. Participants suggested that providing training, support and incentives as well as encouraging collaboration with experts and publications could strengthen the practice of action research in ELT.

This research aimed to examine the views of juveniles and probation specialists on the probation system and to put forward some suggestions on effective social work practices in the probation system. In this qualitative study, the phenomenology design was used. The study group of the research determined using the purposive sampling method comprises 30 juvenile justice-involved aged between 19-25 and 20 probation specialists. Five sub-themes were identified as: getting consultancy services, meeting psychosocial needs, developing cognitive and behavioral skills, raising awareness about substance use, changing friend circle. According to data from in-depth interviews, the probation system is considered a system that generally meets some basic psychosocial needs of young people; provides cognitive and behavioral awareness of the effects of substance abuse but cannot fully touch the lives of young people. The education and improvement programs in the probation system should be revised in accordance with the needs of the youth.

Published: June 2022

This study aimed to validate the usefulness of parent artery complex coil protection for the treatment of wide-neck, side-branched, and ruptured aneurysms. A microcatheter was first introduced into the aneurysmal sac, and another microcatheter was introduced into the parent artery or near the orifice of the branch artery. A framing coil was deployed partially from the first microcatheter, and a protection coil was deployed from the second microcatheter to prevent protrusion of the first framing coil to the parent artery and side branches. After the first framing coil insertion, the protection coil was withdrawn to confirm the stability of the framing coil and blood flow. The procedures with this technique were successful for 3 patients. Parent artery complex coil protection can be an effective and safe coil embolization technique for the preservation of parent and side branch arteries and an alternative method for emergent ruptured cases.
