In the loop: revaluing public health in international investment agreements
Authors: Vadi Valentina
Published: June 2024

Old-generation treaties generally lacked reference to the State’s right to protect public health, thus leaving arbitral tribunals with the task of balancing private and public interests in specific arbitrations. Since 2010, given the uncertainty raised by conflicting arbitral awards, States have gradually reaffirmed their right to take measures in the public interest. The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified this trend. This article examines post-pandemic treaty practice and highlights that, in reforming their treaties, States have not used a revolutionary approach; rather, they have incrementally combined provisions that had already been used in earlier treaties. In theory, in the absence of such provisions, the police powers doctrine and interpretive criteria can, and should, inform arbitral tribunals’ reasoning, and enable them to reach an appropriate balance between private and public interests. In practice, however, the recalibration of international investment agreements can provide some direction to the parties and arbitral tribunals on how to concretely balance the private and public interests at stake. Reforms of this kind can stop States from leaving investor–State dispute settlement mechanisms, and save the system from collapsing. Scholars do not regard such clauses as a cure-all, as arbitral tribunals have interpreted such provisions narrowly, often making them meaningless. However, arbitral tribunals should see these clauses as feedback loops, interpret them in good faith, and give them effect. A fitting construction of these provisions thus represents an existential feature of international investment law.

Authors: Badem Anıl , Olgun Hayati
Published: June 2024

Biyokütle enerji uygulamalarında kullanılan ticari teknolojilerin başında biyokütle yakma
sistemleri gelmektedir. Orman kökenli biyokütlelerin yakılması bilinen ve kanıtlamış bir
teknoloji olmakla birlikte tarımsal atıklarının yakılması orman kökenli yakıtlara göre çok
daha sorunlu olmaktadır. Bu sorunlar; yakma sisteminin tasarımından, işletme koşullarına ve
burada yakılacak biyokütlenin türüne, fiziksel ve kimyasal özelliklerine bağlı olarak
değişiklikler göstermektedir. Bunların başında, sistemin düzenli ve sürekli çalışmasını
etkileyerek plansız duruşlara neden olan sinterleşme, aglomerasyon, cüruflaşma, korozyon
gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada, bu sorunları önceden analiz etmek üzere literatürde yaygın olarak
kullanılan kömür küllerinin indislerinin biyokütle külü üzerindeki uygulanabilirliği
incelenmiştir. Açık alanda depolanan 5 farklı biyokütle hammaddesi (saz kamışı, mısır sapı,
çam kapağı, kavak kapağı, ağaç kökü) silolarından iki farklı zaman diliminde alınan
numunelerde kül mineral içeriği, klor içeriği, kükürt içeriği ve kül ergime sıcaklığı analizleri
yapılarak indis hesaplamaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Böylece biyokütle yakıtlarından kaynaklı
sorunların depolama koşullarına bağlı değişimleri de incelenmiş olacaktır. Yapılan analizler
ve hesaplamalar sonucunda biyokütle külünün kömürden önemli ölçüde farklı olması ve
biyokütle hammaddelerinin heterojen yapısı nedeniyle mevcut indisler arasında herhangi bir
ilişki veya öngörü gösterilememiştir. Ortaya çıkan çelişkili bulgular, bu indislerden herhangi
birini oluşturmak veya doğrulamak için gerçek koşullar altında daha fazla araştırma ve
deneysel testlerin gerekli olduğunu göstermektedir. İndisler, yanma koşullarının ve
teknolojilerin etkisi, katı biyokütle yakıtlarının heterojen yapısı ve fizikokimyasal
karakterizasyonu dikkate alınarak, gerçek yanma deneyimlerinden elde edilen sonuçlara
dayanmalıdır.

Published: June 2024

Öğretim programları, milli eğitimin amaçlarının gerçekleşmesi ve istenilen niteliklere sahip bireyler yetiştirebilmek için cumhuriyetin kuruluşundan itibaren pek çok defa değiştirilmiştir. Bu çalışma cumhuriyetin ilanıyla birlikte liselerde uygulanan coğrafya dersi öğretim programlarının değiştirilmesinin gerekçelerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu gerekçelere bağlı olarak coğrafya dersi öğretim programlarının nasıl oluşturulduğu, öğrenciler için hangi konuların daha önemli hale geldiği, coğrafyanın ders saatlerine nasıl yansıdığı belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarihsel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Talim ve Terbiye Kurulu Başkanlığı (TTKB) kararları, doküman incelemesi tekniği ile analiz edilmiştir. 1924 tarihli ilk coğrafya programından itibaren 2024 yılında uygulamaya konulan son programa kadar otuz bir program belirlenmiştir. Bu programlara TTKB Kurul Kararları ve Tebliğler Dergisinden erişilmiştir. Bu kapsamda ilk olarak 1924 tarihli programdan edinilen üç yıllık deneyim sonrasında 1927 tarihinde ek program hazırlanmıştır. Bu programda, derslerin yoğunluğundan dolayı öğretmenlerin öğrenciyi derslerde aktifleştiremediği belirtilerek coğrafya ders saatleri artırılmıştır. İkinci önemli gerekçe, 1971 tarihli programda öğrencileri yükseköğretime hazırlamak olarak gösterilmiştir. Üçüncüsü 1982 yılında uygulamaya konulan program gerekçesinde ortaya çıkmıştır. Türkiye’yi tanıtmak ve vatanı sevdirmek önemli görülmüş, bunun için Türkiye coğrafyası konuları artırılmış, Türkiye coğrafyası derslerinin okutulduğu sınıfların ders saati ikiye çıkarılmıştır. Dördüncüsü 2005 yılında uygulamaya konulan program gerekçesinde belirlenmiştir. Kendinden önceki programların genel olarak program yaklaşımından uzak ve bilgi aktarmaya yönelik yalnızca konu sıralamasından ibaret olması, coğrafya biliminin güncelliğinin programlara yansıtılması gerektiği üzerinde durulmuştur. Sonuç olarak coğrafya dersi öğretim programları hazırlanırken edinilmiş tecrübeler, programların yoğunluğu, yükseköğrenime hazırlık, vatan sevgisi, güncel gelişmeler ve bireylerin istenen niteliklere sahip olması göz önünde bulundurulmuştur. Çözüm olarak ders saatlerini artırma, konu yoğunluğunu azaltmak için belirli konuları programdan çıkarma, öğretim süresini üç yıldan dört yıla yükseltme gibi yöntemler bulunmuştur.

Reading distractions is something to be eliminated to help pupils improve their comprehension to develop their reading confidence. This study aimed to determine the pupils’ level of reading distractions and confidence and its significant relationship. This employed a descriptive-correlational research design which utilized an adapted and modified questionnaire on reading distraction which included class environment factor, psychological factor and home and family factors to 235 Grade 5 pupils from North 1 District of Cagayan de Oro City Division through stratified random sampling using Slovin’s Formula. The study utilized descriptive statistics like Mean, Standard Deviation and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient for the significant relationship. Results showed that pupils’ overall reading is less distracted especially in class environment factor but most of the time distracted as to psychological and as to home and family factors. Also, pupils have reading confidence most of the time. Pupils’ reading distraction and reading confidence have moderate negative correlation. Thus, pupils’ reading confidence is not developed well when they are distracted. The more their reading is distracted, the lesser their reading confidence. The lesser their reading is distracted, the more their reading confidence increases. Teachers and family members may help promote a conducive place for reading, free from distractions to sustain the pupils’ reading confidence.

Understanding Harmony: Human-Nature Relationships in the Huangdi Neijing
Authors:   University of Social Sciences and Humanities - Hanoi National University, Phuong Nguyen Thi
Published: June 2024

The Huangdi Neijing, revered as a foundational text in traditional Chinese medicine, represents an extensive compendium of knowledge attributed to the legendary Yellow Emperor, Huangdi. This ancient manuscript, which consists of two parts, the Suwen, and the Lingshu, is central to the medical practices developed over millennia in East Asia. It profoundly explores health's physiological and metaphysical dimensions, emphasizing the interdependent relationship between human beings and the natural environment. This article investigates how Neijing conceptualizes this relationship, using the yin-yang and the Five Elements frameworks to articulate a dynamic balance influenced by environmental factors. The investigation is framed through the microcosm-macrocosm paradigm, which posits that human health reflects the broader cosmic and ecological order. The findings highlight the historical significance of the Neijing and its contemporary relevance. By bridging ancient wisdom with modern health challenges, this analysis underscores the potential of these traditional principles to enhance modern holistic health practices and influence environmental policies, thus supporting broader societal and ecological well-being.
The Architecture of Public Buildings as Transformative Model Towards Sustainability
Authors:   Professor, Ss Cyril and Methodius University, Faculty of Architecture, bul. Partizanski Odredi no.24, Skopje, RN Macedonia, Zinoski Mihajlo
Published: June 2024

Problem Statement: After the era of socialist modernism in Macedonia, the transition process of the newly independent state inevitably affected and still transforms the architectural heritage. The monumentality of modern architecture in Yugoslavia was determined by its specific typology and spaciousness. Such characteristics are becoming vulnerable while facing certain challenges between sustainability and the building's formal aspects and appearance. The reflection of these challenges can be observed through the architectural transformation based on heating demands, influenced by social, economic, and digital capitalism. In these processes, the other aspects of architectural physics are often neglected (thermal, acoustic, etc), which becomes an issue in terms of the building’s performance and sustainability, and the building's energy efficiency implementation in its entirety. The problem area of this research is the redefining approach of the architectural practice which strives toward sustainability. Moreover, there is a lack of approaches based on a joint strategy between architecture transformations and architecture physics in a holistic manner. Purpose of Study: The main aim is to understand the transformation process, from the architecture of monumentality to the architecture of segregation, where energy consumption is the driving factor and is directly related to the economy market. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to Investigate the interrelation between the architectural transformation process and the discipline of building physics reflected in the energy efficiency strategies. Methods: The research is focused on public buildings, built in the period of social modernism in Yugoslavia, that have transformed their facade and materialization. This study investigated the reasons that drive the transformation processes. In that direction, the research method covers chronological data of the energy efficiency strategies by discussing their plans and actions and uses an analytical approach that recognizes the transformed models into sustainable architecture as evidence of the tendencies toward a sustainable economy of the built environment. Findings and Results: The expected results of the research will determine the main driving economic and social factors of the transformative processes and will elaborate on the transformed model's sustainability. Conclusions and Recommendations: The research will conclude the necessity of collaboration between architecture transformation and building physics, which indicates the architectural characteristics of sustainability
A Comparative Life Cycle Assessment of Hydrogen Production & Storage with Renewable Energy Source and Grid Electricity Source
Authors:   School of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, Dublin City University, Dublin 9, Ireland, S Sabu
Published: June 2024

The role of electricity is becoming significant in our advancing world. Currently, Ireland’s energy mix heavily relies on carbon-polluting fossil fuels, posing an environmental challenge. As per the Paris Agreement 2015, Ireland is ambitiously targeting to meet net zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 2050 and a 51% reduction by 2030. The country is shifting towards renewable energy sources to generate power to achieve this target. With abundant wind energy available, Ireland can meet its goal. However, due to the intermittent availability of wind energy, an energy backup for power generation is necessary. The use of curtailed or dedicated wind for producing hydrogen gas through electrolysis, and storing it in underground salt caverns is one approach to the problem. Northern Ireland has a rich source of Permian salt deposits offering a better place to store hydrogen which can be withdrawn for electricity generation, or used as fuel in transportation sectors. The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the hydrogen systems can scrutinise the environmental impact of carbon emissions. This study analyses routes to reduce the environmental impact by evaluating polluting hotspots during the construction and operation phase of the system. This paper compares the impacts of the LCA on a hydrogen system which consists of a wind energy source for hydrogen production through electrolysis, transportation in pipelines and compression before storing it in salt caverns. A comparative analysis is carried out with the LCA of the hydrogen system with an electrical grid supply source. The results show that the impacts contributed by a renewable source are less than the electricity from the grid for the island of Ireland.
Critical Behavior of an Extreme Fire “Fire Junction”
Authors:   Professor, Superior School in Electrical Engineering and Energy ORAN ESG2E BP 64 ch2 Achaba Hanifi-USTO- Oran, Algeria, K Khelloufi
Published: June 2024

In this paper the concept of extreme forest fire behavior denominated as Junction Fire is analyzed, this phenomenon consists of the interaction between two linear fire fronts which in their propagation intersect at a single point making a small angle between them. In their process of fusion, the phenomena of heat transfer by radiation and convection are extremely amplified due to the concentration of energy at the point of intersection. The concentration of energy and therefore the development of the powerful heat transfer mechanism induces an extremely high and sudden increase in the rate of spread until it reaches a maximum value after which begins to decrease. This behavior of the order parameter exhibits a non-universal phase transition. The analysis carried out in the ADIA-LEIF laboratories show that fires junction are a source of instability which leads to serious safety and management problems for those who are confronted with this type of forest fire. The results show that the fire junction spread exposed two main regimes; an initial acceleration phase characterized by a high rate of spread depends essentially on the initial angle between the fire fronts θ0 , which shifts during the evolution of the fire until the limit of creation of a single front of fire in a straight line explaining a decreasing phase. Nevertheless, the front fire dynamics depends both on the initial angle between the fire fronts θ0 and on the slope ground αJ exhibiting a non-universal phase transition known in the literature.

Published: June 2024

Borno State, Nigeria, grapples with a severe humanitarian crisis stemming from the insurgency of Boko Haram, resulting in the displacement of over 1.8 million individuals who seek refuge in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps. This study presents a detailed investigation of the adequacy of physical infrastructure within Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps in Borno State, Nigeria, and its relationship with the living conditions of IDPs. This study aims to fill existing knowledge gaps by exploring the complex relationship between physical infrastructure and living conditions in conflict-induced displacement settings. Utilising a mixed-methods approach, combining survey research design with geospatial techniques, this study assessed shelter, water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities across three selected IDP camps. Statistical techniques, including chi-squared tests and ordinal logistic regression analysis, were utilised to examine the relationships between physical infrastructure adequacy and the Sustainable Livelihoods Score. The findings reveal diverse patterns in Shelter and WASH vulnerabilities across IDP camps, emphasising the need for nuanced interventions tailored to specific challenges faced by IDPs in different locations. Logistic regression analysis provides insights into the significant predictors of the Sustainable Livelihoods Score. The results indicate that the Shelter Vulnerability Score is not a statistically significant predictor of the Sustainable Livelihoods Score, whereas the WASH Vulnerability Score shows marginal significance, suggesting a potential but not strong impact. The goodness-of-fit analysis indicated that the logistic regression model provided a reasonable fit to the data, offering valuable insights into the relationship between physical infrastructure adequacy and livelihood conditions of IDPs in Borno State.

Objetivo: describir la eficacia y seguridad de la terapia hormonal de la menopausia vía transdérmica (THM TD) para aliviar los síntomas de la menopausia.
Materiales y métodos: se hizo una revisión sistemática de la literatura en diferentes bases de datos electrónicas (CINAHL Plus, EMBASE, Scopus, Lilacs, Medline, Pubmed, entre otras), a través de términos de búsqueda estandarizados. Los desenlaces evaluados incluyeron los estudios donde se publicó cualquier tratamiento o intervención con la THM TD en mujeres tratadas por síntomas de la menopausia, porcentajes de alivio de los síntomas climatéricos y proporción de eventos adversos asociados.
Resultados: se incluyeron 45 publicaciones, y convienen en aconsejar el tratamiento con la THM TD, en vista de un alivio de los síntomas climatéricos cerca del 90%, asimismo de ser más segura y potencialmente más eficaz que la terapia oral; con resultados normales en la evaluación mamográfica, y sin eventos adversos relacionados después de 5 años de seguimiento.
Conclusiones: la terapia hormonal en la menopausia vía transdérmica es segura y eficaz para aliviar los síntomas de la menopausia. Al evitarse el metabolismo hepático, alcanza mejores beneficios clínicos, a la vez que minimiza la exposición de eventos adversos. Las publicaciones revisadas demuestran que la vía transdérmica es la mejor forma de tratar los síntomas de la menopausia.

OPTICAL FIBER-BASED SENSORS AND THEIR RECENT APPLICATIONS IN SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING
Authors: Moreno Yarien , Yan Zhijun , Correa Noriel , Díaz Gustavo , Santamaría Marciano , Castillo Eduardo , Guerra Him Alvaro
Published: June 2024

This paper presents a review of fiber optic-based sensors and their main characteristics and classification. In the same way, the paper includes a series of applications of sensors based on fiber optics with Bragg gratings in different fields of study in research such as medicine, civil engineering, communications engineering, chemistry, and biochemistry, among others. Such sensors are developed taking advantage of certain characteristics of optical fibers, such as photosensitivity and the variation of the refractive index of their core.  Applications of fiber optics in the detection of telecommunications signals are also discussed, particularly as a filter device through the usage of Bragg gratings. Due to its versatility, these optical devices have provided promising results and have become a leading technology in next generation DWDM systems, as well as in optical sensing networks.

كان للدبلوماسي يحتاج إلى تعلم المصطلحات الدبلوماسية ويستوليها، لاسيما يستولي في المصطلحات العربية في علم الدبلوماسية. هذا البحث لمعرفة الأصل في بناء المصطلحات الدبلوماسية في اللغة العربية. هذا البحث من نوع البحث الكيفي الوصفي. وأما أسلوب جمع البيانات المستخدمة في هذا البحث هو طريقة الوثائق المكتوبة.[1] أما المصادر الرئيسية فيأخذها الباحث من الكتب في علم الدبلوماسية ليأخذ مصطلحاتها والكتب في علم الصرف والتعريب ليعرف ويشرح أصل مصطلحاته والمعاجم. والمصادر الثنوية فيأخذها من المجلات المتنوعة المتعلقة بها. والنتائج المحصولة لهذا البحث هي كانت لتكوين المصطلحات العربية خصوصا في علم الدبلوماسية عمليتان، العملية الصرفية والعملية التعريبية.المراد بالعملية الصرفية  هو تحويل صيغ الكلمة من الصيغة إلى الصيغة الأخرى لِنَيْلِ الْمَعْنَى الْمُرَاد. المثال:  كلمة Negosiasi ، الكلمة العربية منها فهي المفاوضة. فكانت المفاوضة من العملية الصرفية، لأنها  مصدر مشتقة من كلمة فاوض – يفاوض – مفاوضة. والمراد بالعملية التعريبية فهو على الاحتمالين:الأول: تدخيل لغة الأعجمية في العربية لأن تكون لغة عربية. المثال  كلمة Diplomasi، فهو من لغة اليونان أعني "diploun" معناه طيء (مصدر طوى يطوي). يسمى بذلك لأن في إمبراطورية الروم كان كل جواز سفر حينما يمر طرق البلاد والرسائل الطرقية يشتق على قرص المعدن. هما يطوان ويخيّطان لأن يكونا واحدا. فالرسائل المعدنية هذه يسمى ب "diplomas". ثم تعرّب هذه الكلمة باللغة العربية، فصار دِبْلُوْمَاسِيَّة. والثاني: تدخيل لغتها الحديثة في العربية بكلمة العربية نفسها. المثال:كلمة Internasional، فهي من اللغة الانجليزية أعني International. فتعرّب بكلمة اللغة العربية في نفسها، هي دُوَلِيٌ.

Las regiones montañosas como los Andes son un refugio para los árboles, en un mundo que se calienta. Choquequirao es un refugio para alrededor de 500 especies de árboles, incluidos los helechos arborescentes y las palmeras. Esta estimación la hacemos en base a miles de colecciones de árboles que se han realizado mediante esforzadas exploraciones botánicas particularmente en los últimos 40 años en las provincias de Anta y La Convención, que corresponde actualmente a las áreas núcleo del Área de Conservación Regional Choquequirao. A pesar de que tanto el área de estudio como el Santuario Histórico de Machupicchu presentan los mismos tipos de bosque, el potencial de diversidad arbórea de Choquequirao es mayor debido a: su extensión (más de 100 mil hectáreas) y a su mayor gradiente altitudinal básicamente en la parte baja, por lo se incluye en la contabilidad mayor número de especies de los bosques pre-montanos. Si bien el número de especies de árboles estimadas puede aumentar con mayores investigaciones, la presencia de 486 especies de árboles es representativo para los bosques pre-montanos y montanos particularmente entre los 1200 a 4200 m de altitud. La gradiente altitudinal viene a ser uno de los factores determinantes para el incremento de la diversidad de los árboles en esta región. Además, se debe considerar que aún hay cerca de 4000 especies de árboles aún no descritos por la ciencia, en América del Sur; muchas de estas, sin duda, están presentes en los diversos bosques del Área de Conservación Regional Choquequirao. Aún queda más para descubrir, enfatizando la importancia de mantener un mayor ritmo de investigación botánica.
Análisis coyuntural de los proyectos políticos
Authors: Echeverría Santiago
Published: June 2024

Caracterización de los principales rasgos del proceso político salvadoreño y análisis de los proyectos políticos de la democracia cristiana, la empresa privada y del FMLN-FDR. El análisis es coyuntural y se limita al último año.
La hipótesis básica es que en la actual crisis política confluyen tres proyectos que se disputan la hegemonía de la sociedad. Ninguno de los tres es homogéneo y los tres están influidos por la acción de otros actores políticos, concretamente por Estados Unidos, la Fuerza Armada y la Iglesia católica. La confluencia de los tres en un mismo escenario político vuelve seriamente compleja la dinámica del proceso actual.
Este trabajo forma parte de un proyecto de investigación regional mucho más grande sobre los procesos de democratización en el área centroamericana, patrocinado por la Confederación Universitaria Centroamericana (CSUCA) y desarrollado desde octubre de 1987 hasta octubre de 1988.
