Entwicklungspfade für den Wohngebäudebestand auf dem Weg zur Klimaneutralität/Development Options for the Residential Building Stock towards Climate Neutrality
Authors: Becker Nicole
Published: September 2024

Deutschlandweit streben Städte und Gemeinden an, zwischen 2030 und 2040 klimaneutral zu werden. Doch was heißt das für den Wohngebäudebestand? Ist eine entsprechende energetische Sanierung möglich oder kann das Ziel nur durch Abriss und Neubau erreicht werden? Am Beispiel eines Sechzigerjahre Einfamilienhauses wurden an der Jade Hochschule verschiedene Entwicklungspfade hinsichtlich der Treibhausgasemissionen (GWP) und des Bedarfs an nicht erneuerbarer Primärenergie ökobilanziell analysiert und ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass bezogen auf die Nutzungsphase die Bestandssanierung dem Neubau in nichts nachsteht. Allerdings betragen die Aufwendungen an nicht erneuerbarer Primärenergie auf dem Weg dorthin, das heißt in der Bau- oder Umbauphase, für den Neubau circa das Vierfache der Sanierungsvariante. Hinsichtlich der Treibhausgasemissionen ist die Bilanz stark abhängig von den eingesetzten Baustoffen, sodass in der Holzrahmenbauweise der Neubau zum langfristigen CO2-Speicher wird.
LINGUOCULTURAL ANALYSIS OF PAREMIOLOGICAL DICTIONARIES IN KARAKALPAK AND ENGLISH LANGUAGES
Authors:   1st year doctoral student of Karakalpak State University, Uzbekistan, Ayzada Mambetalieva
Published: September 2024

Language is a powerful tool that reflects the cultural identity and worldview of its speakers. Proverbs, in particular, are rich linguistic expressions that encapsulate the collective wisdom, traditions, and values of a culture. The study of proverbs, known as paremiology, provides invaluable insights into the way different societies perceive the world and convey their experiences. In this article, we will conduct a linguocultural analysis of paremiological dictionaries in the Karakalpak and English languages. Paremiological dictionaries serve as vital resources for documenting and preserving the proverbial wisdom of a culture. Through a comparative approach, this study will examine the linguistic features and cultural meanings embedded in the proverbs of both languages, highlighting how proverbs function as a bridge between language and culture. The Karakalpak and English languages represent two distinct linguistic and cultural traditions. By analyzing proverbs from these two languages, we aim to uncover the similarities and differences in how they express values, beliefs, and social norms.

Flipped Classroom como Elemento Favorecedor para el Desarrollo de la Capacidad de Resolución de Problemas en estudiantes de Educación Infantil
Authors: Reina Mera Estefany Alejandra , Reina Mera Karen Daniela
Published: September 2024

El artículo examina la metodología del Flipped Classroom (aula invertida) como una estrategia innovadora para potenciar la capacidad de resolución de problemas en estudiantes de educación infantil. En el modelo tradicional de enseñanza, los conceptos nuevos se introducen en el aula y se refuerzan en casa. En contraste, el Flipped Classroom invierte este proceso: los estudiantes se familiarizan con los conceptos a través de materiales educativos previos, como videos o lecturas, y utilizan el tiempo de clase para aplicar y profundizar en estos conceptos mediante actividades prácticas y colaborativas. El artículo explora cómo este enfoque puede beneficiar a los estudiantes de educación infantil, especialmente en el desarrollo de habilidades críticas como la resolución de problemas. A través de la preparación previa, los niños llegan al aula con un conocimiento básico que les permite participar activamente en la resolución de problemas en tiempo real. Esto fomenta un entorno de aprendizaje más dinámico e interactivo, donde los educadores pueden ofrecer apoyo personalizado y facilitador mientras los estudiantes aplican lo aprendido. Se discute la eficacia del Flipped Classroom en el contexto de la educación infantil, evaluando cómo esta metodología puede mejorar la comprensión conceptual y la capacidad de resolución de problemas de los estudiantes. Se presentan ejemplos de implementación en aulas de educación infantil y se analizan los resultados obtenidos, incluyendo el impacto en el desarrollo cognitivo y social de los niños. El artículo concluye que el Flipped Classroom, al ofrecer una mayor oportunidad para la aplicación práctica del conocimiento, puede ser una herramienta valiosa para el desarrollo de habilidades de resolución de problemas en la educación infantil. Sin embargo, también se destacan los desafíos y consideraciones que los educadores deben tener en cuenta para implementar esta metodología de manera efectiva, como la preparación de materiales adecuados y la adaptación a las necesidades individuales de los estudiantes.

Work as a nurse requires direct contact with patients, for example when carrying drugs or changing IVs. However, since the COVID-19 pandemic, awareness to reduce direct contact with patients is increasingly needed. Moreover, direct contact with patients with infectious diseases, such as covid-19. For this reason, it is necessary to create a tool / robot that can connect nurses and patients, especially patients with infectious diseases. In this study, a robot design and implementation was made that can assist nurses in delivering drugs to patients, without having to make direct contact with patients. IoT-based designed robots using NodeMCU, ESP8266 and Blynk. NodeMCU ESP8266 is used as a data processor and smartphones are used as remote controls via the internet. Data from the smartphone is processed by NodeMCU then sends a signal to the robot actuator via the L298N driver motor to drive the wheels. Furthermore, the internet-connected IP camera is used for live streaming on smartphones through the V380 Pro application as a directional guide. Then to prevent collisions, the ultrasonic sensor HCSR04 will send data to NodeMCU ESP8266 if there is an obstacle at a distance of 30 cm in front of the robot, so that the robot will move backwards. The experimental results show that the robot can run well where the robot is controlled by a nurse using the Blynk IoT application and V380 Pro on a smartphone via internet media. Then the test was carried out with two methods, namely smartphones using the robot's local Wi-Fi connection and smartphones using cellular networks. The results showed that the response time of the application command on the smartphone to the robot or viewing video results from the IP Camera was affected by the condition of the internet network used.

Authors: Purba Hengki , Hutajulu Olnes Yosefa , Sinuraya Arwadi , Nababan Puji Mory
Published: September 2024

The electrical power generated by a Micro Hydropower Plant (PLTMH) should be fully utilized without any wastage. The PLTMH Suka Sama, equipped with an Electronic Load Controller (ELC), diverts unused electrical power to a ballast load. This action is necessary to maintain system frequency stability in the event of excess power during a drop in demand. The utilization of energy from PLTMH Suka Sama can be improved by using the electrical power diverted to the ballast load to process sugarcane juice into palm sugar using a vacuum evaporator. The potential energy wasted to the ballast load will be calculated based on the comparison data of the power used by the PLTMH and the power wasted during peak and low demand periods over 9 days. The study results show that the power diverted to the ballast load ranges from 2,000 W to over 3,000 W for 4-7 hours per day. This research indicates that the wasted electrical energy can be utilized to produce palm sugar using a vacuum evaporator with a capacity of 2,000 W for 4-5 hours. The wasted energy, if utilized, can produce 2.5 kg to 3.5 kg of palm sugar.

Published: September 2024

One of the current land use alternatives is cultivating vegetables using the hydroponic method. One way that must be considered to get good results when cultivating pak choy using the hydroponic method is to periodically maintain the pH level of the nutrient media in the hydroponic pak choy plant. This research aims to create a system that can detect nutrient levels and the condition of hydroponic plants. To test this, hydroponic plant nutrition was carried out using 2 types of treatment. The first treatment, hydroponic pak choy plants are given nutrition according to the optimal PPM (Parts Per Million) nutrient dose, namely in the range of 1100 to 1400 so that the leaves produced are healthy and green. Meanwhile, in the second treatment, hydroponic pakchoy plants were given less nutrition than they should be given, namely in the range of 800-1000 PPM so that the leaves produced by hydroponic pakchoy plants wilt due to lack of nutrition. The control devices used in this system include ESP32 as a microcontroller, ESP32 Cam for plant monitoring and digital image processing, pH sensors, and TDS sensors to monitor nutrients in the air. Based on the experimental results, it was found that mustard leaves will be green if the TDS meter value is at an average of 1160.83 PPM with an average error of 5.61% while the pH meter value is at 9.82 with an average error 4.2 %. The percentage value of green detected by image processing is 120.33% with a lower limit of green [35, 21, 63] and an upper limit of green [55, 255, 255]. The Esp32 cam can also process digital images of hydroponic pak choy leaves well.
Non-smooth self-excited vibration of a novel dynamical model for a disc brake
Authors: Liu Ningyu , Ouyang Huajiang , Fu Yiqiang , Liao Wei-Hsin
Published: September 2024

This paper proposes a new dynamic model for the study of friction-induced self-excited vibration of a disc brake system, where the pad’s motions in both radial and circumferential/tangential directions are included, which is in stark contrast to the previous studies that normally consider the pad’s motion in the tangential/circumferential direction only. The non-smooth dynamics of the system including three different states of motion, i.e., stick, slip and separation, is investigated. Both the linear stability analysis and the transient dynamic analysis are performed. The numerical results in the linear stability analysis indicate that the inclusion of pad’s radial motion in the present brake model significantly expands the ranges of operating parameters for dynamic instability than the brake model with only circumferential/tangential motion for the pad. For the transient dynamic analysis, two different methods, i.e., the time integration method and the shooting method, are employed for the calculation of steady-state response. The accuracy and efficiency of the shooting method are subsequently examined. The numerical results show rich bifurcation behaviours of the steady-state response in the present brake model with the variations of brake pressure  and disc speed , and   (the stiffness of the inclined spring in the radial direction) is a key parameter for controlling the occurrence of chaotic vibration in the system.

Dynamic Clock Switching Scheme for Enhanced Power Efficiency in System-on-Chip Architectures
Authors: Prabha Abhijith
Published: September 2024

High power consumption and thermal management are critical challenges in traditional System- on-Chip (SoC) architectures due to multiple active clock sources feeding individual IP blocks, even during idle states. This paper introduces a dynamic clock switching power-saving scheme that consolidates clock sources by dynamically switching to a single lower-frequency clock during low-power modes. A Clock Control Agent (CCA) monitors real-time operational status, power consumption, and performance needs, leveraging AI for predictive adjustments. Experimental results demonstrate a significant reduction in idle power consumption and improved thermal management, without compromising performance or data integrity. This scheme addresses inefficiencies in existing methods such as Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) and clock gating, offering a robust and efficient solution for next-generation SoC designs.
Conversations about death and dying: A co-created workshop for healthcare students
Authors: Rees Anna , Rushe Edwina , Smith Ben , Hogg Jameson
Published: September 2024

The topic of the physiology of death and dying and how to communicate with people at the end of life is largely absent from healthcare curricula within the U.K. This is despite research indicating that healthcare students find death to be an upsetting experience, and national recommendations advocating that such education be mandatory. This case study outlines the design, delivery, and evaluation of a workshop exploring death and dying in terms of physiology and communication. This intervention was co-created with students using an action research approach. Students appeared to increase in knowledge and skills relating to talking with dying patients and their families, through engagement in the workshop, as evidenced by the evaluation. This study has wider implications for other healthcare courses nationally as higher education institutions seek to address the gap in knowledge and skills relating to death and dying in pre-registration healthcare students.

Authors: Wattret Gemma , Delaney Jennifer , Steers Jason
Published: September 2024

Employers are increasingly using video interviews in the application process, highlighting the need for graduates to adapt to digital technologies. To ensure graduates are adequately prepared, a Year 2 skills module was redeveloped, replacing face-to-face interviews with asynchronous video interviews using ShortlistMe. Aligning the assessment to a careers event allowed students to engage with employers and develop commercial awareness. Out of 430 students, 395 completed the video interview, and 329 connected with employers during the careers event (a 63% increase compared to the previous year). A survey explored student perceptions of the video interview (n= 39). Student confidence in completing a video interview increased by 44.6%, and in demonstrating commercial awareness by 30%. This model effectively connected employers with the curriculum at scale, fostering digital fluency, commercial awareness, and enhancing employability skills. This adaptable approach could benefit any discipline, equipping students for success in a dynamic job market.

Planning and party manifestos in recent UK general elections
Authors: Marshall Tim
Published: September 2024

In a democracy, a commonly held idea is that political parties present their programmes for government before elections so that people know what they are voting for. It is then often held that governments should follow what they have said, when in government. These programmes may take several forms, but the most common one is the party manifesto. Here the aim is to consider how planning elements have figured in manifestos. Manifestos are surveyed from the four UK general elections 2010–2019, concentrating on those of the Conservative and Labour parties. How far did planning figure in manifestos? Were there big differences between parties and elections? To what extent did a winning party follow its manifesto? Manifestos tread a complicated line between clear ideological statements and more immediately tuned electoral political considerations. Some implications are drawn out for how planning actors may relate to manifestos in the future.

Traditional single-fiber spectroscopy provides a single galaxy spectrum, forming the basis for crucial parameter estimation. However, its accuracy can be compromised by various sources of contamination, such as the prominent Hα emission line originating from both star-forming (SF) regions and non-star-forming (NonSF) regions, including active galactic nuclei. The potential to dissect a spectrum into its SF and NonSF constituents holds the promise of significantly enhancing precision in parameter estimates. In contrast, integral field unit (IFU) surveys present a solution to minimize contamination. These surveys examine spatially localized regions within galaxies, reducing the impact of mixed sources. Although an IFU survey’s resulting spectrum covers a smaller region of a galaxy than single-fiber spectroscopy, it can still encompass a blend of heterogeneous sources. Our study introduces an innovative model informed by insights from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory IFU survey. This model enables the decomposition of galaxy spectra, including those from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, into SF and NonSF components. Applying our model to these survey data sets produces two distinct spectra, one for SF and another for NonSF components, while conserving flux across wavelength bins. When these decomposed spectra are visualized on a Baldwin, Phillips, and Terlevich (BPT) diagram, interesting patterns emerge. There is a significant shift in the placement of the NonSF decomposed spectra, as well as the emergence of two distinct clusters in the Low-ionization Nuclear Emission-line Region and the Seyfert region. This shift highlights the key role of SF “contamination” in influencing the positioning of NonSF spectra within the BPT diagram.
Revised Reaction Rate for the Astrophysical Reaction 18O(p, α)15N via a Global R-matrix Analysis

Published: September 2024

The 18O(p, α)15N reaction is of particular importance for influencing the abundances of key isotopes such as 19F, 18O, and 15N. Peculiar abundances for these nuclei are observed from spectra or meteorite grains originating in asymptotic giant branch stars. The 18O(p, α)15N could provide a way to explain the discrepancy between the observations and model predictions. A comprehensive R-matrix analysis has been performed for the 18O(p, α)15N reaction by including additional constraints from other reaction channels; in particular, the 15N+α scattering data were involved in the analysis for the first time. All available data were compiled and used in the R-matrix analysis. The fitted resonance parameters are compared with previous works. A revised determination of reaction rate has been extracted, relying on the present fitting parameters. The uncertainties on the corresponding reaction rates were then obtained by a Monte Carlo analysis.
An illustrated key to European genera of Microgastrinae parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) with a recent historical and biological perspective and a guide to available species-level identification resources
Authors: Shaw Mark R. , Höcherl Amelie , Fernandez-Triana Jose
Published: September 2024

An illustrated key is provided for the identification of the 20 genera of Microgastrinae so far known to occur in Europe. A brief review of 20th century progress on the group is given. Morphological terms are explained and illustrated, with special reference to the different systems of wing venation employed by past workers on Microgastrinae in Europe, and recommendations are made for future work. For each genus, an outline of species richness, host usage, developmental biology, and particular morphological features is given, and some species that may be difficult to place are highlighted. Available keys for species identification within genera are referenced, with comments, and attention is drawn to species more recently recorded or described up to January 2024. The value of accurate rearing data for parasitoids is emphasised. The references discussed provide a comprehensive overview of the most useful literature for future morphological work on European Microgastrinae. Glyptapanteles moldavicus (Tobias), comb. nov. is proposed.

Published: September 2024

La crise sanitaire de la Covid-19 a poussé les institutions d’enseignement supérieur à adopter l’e-learning de crise pour assurer la continuité pédagogique, menant ensuite à l’institutionnalisation de l’enseignement hybride. Cet article présente les résultats d’une recherche-intervention dans une université publique tunisienne visant à mettre en place un dispositif d’e-learning hybride. En s’appuyant sur les étapes de diagnostic, de mise en œuvre et d’évaluation, l’étude souligne l’importance de plusieurs facteurs pour améliorer l’efficacité de ce dispositif dans un contexte universitaire émergent : l’assimilation du concept par les enseignants, la formation, la clarification des rôles administratifs ainsi que les considérations éthiques et les risques associés au e-learning.
L’officier de l’état civil et le droit étranger. Analyse critique et prospective d’une défaillance française
Authors: Nord Nicolas
Published: September 2024

Dans des situations à caractère international, l’officier de l’état civil français peut être fréquemment confronté à l’application d’une loi étrangère. Pourtant, en vertu de l’Instruction générale relative à l’état civil et d’autres textes administratifs, il n’a aucune obligation d’établir la teneur du droit étranger et peut se contenter des seuls éléments rapportés par les particuliers qui le sollicitent. Une telle solution a certes pour avantage de simplifier la tâche de l’officier de l’état civil qui n’est pas un professionnel du droit. Elle entraîne toutefois des incohérences au sein de l’ordre juridique français. L’article préconise donc d’inverser le principe et de créer un devoir pour l’autorité française en la matière. Il convient toutefois d’alléger sa charge en facilitant l’accès à la teneur du droit étranger. Des propositions concrètes sont formulées en ce sens, tant au niveau interne que par la mise en œuvre de la coopération internationale.

Electromagnetic design, sensitivity analysis, optimization and Multiphysics capability of rare-earth-free synchronous reluctance motor for electric trike vehicle
Authors: Rajini V , Nagarajan VS , Harikrishnan Karunya , Lal Kolhe Mohan
Published: September 2024

As a part of last-mile transportation, electric three-wheelers, popularly known as trikes, are considered as an important aspect of the future of the auto industry. The appropriate choice of electric traction motor drive is imperative to the design of an electric motor power train. In this paper, six main types of sinusoidal-fed electric motor power trains—Ferrite-Assisted Synchronous Reluctance Motor (FASRM), Synchronous Reluctance Motor (SyncRelM), Ferrite-based Spoke motor, Ferrite-based Surface-Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (SMPMSM), Wound-Field Synchronous Motor (WFSM), and Induction Motor (IM)—are compared for their performance in electric trike applications. The permanent magnet machines presented here utilize ferrite magnets, in line with the recent trend of not using rare-earth magnets. The comprehensive comparative analysis establishes that SyncRelM, FASRM, and Spoke motors are superior in terms of overall electromagnetic, thermal, and vibration performance. This paper also focuses on an optimal design of the FASRM due to its high torque density, lower torque ripple, and minimal use of ferrite magnets. A Design of Experiments (DoE)-based statistical analysis tool is used to identify the key parameters needed for robust motor performance in the optimization step. Furthermore, an Extreme Learning Machine (ELM)-based interpolation technique is employed for estimating the performance parameters during each step of the optimization routine. A 1.2 kW FASR motor prototype is developed and tested. A comparison of Finite-Element-Analysis-based modeling results is presented along with Indian drive-cycle results for the FASRM for trike application.
