Authors: Wang Junlei , Dong Chunyu , Sun Sijing , Mu Liyuan , Zhang Naiming , Bao Li
Published: November 2024

The problem of the contamination of soils with high background values of heavy metals has attracted increasing attention. In this paper, the contents, spatial distribution characteristics and correlations of five heavy metals in seven types of arable soils with different soil-forming matrices were analyzed by using Kriging spatial interpolation, descriptive statistics and correlation analysis to clarify the spatial distribution of heavy metals in different soil-forming matrices, and to explore the influence of parent rocks on the spatial distribution and concentration of heavy metals. The results showed that the Cd contents of the seven soil-forming parent materials exceeded the background values recorded for soils in Yunnan Province and that metamorphic rocks such as mudstone, argillaceous rock, purple rock, and carbonate rock exceeded the risk screening values. The average Pb, Cu, and As contents were lower than the background values recorded for soils in Yunnan Province and smaller than the risk screening values for agricultural land. Carbonate areas have a large area of contamination, while metamorphic mudstone areas have a relatively small percentage of contamination. The correlations of heavy metals in different soil-forming matrices varies, and the source of each element and its correlation can be further analyzed and verified by means such as the source analysis method. The results of this study are crucial for pollution prevention and the analysis of the source of heavy metal soil contamination.

Authors: Sepúlveda-Rojas J. P. , Aravena Sergio , Carrasco Raúl
Published: November 2024

This article proposes the application of the AHP method in an office furniture remanufacturing company, with the aim of optimizing knowledge retention and management. In particular, it seeks to establish the optimal retrieval route for returned products. To this end, a bibliographic analysis was first carried out, which revealed the scarcity of previous studies on the subject, thus validating the relevance of this work. Subsequently, a practical application of the AHP method was carried out to define the weighting matrix of the evaluation criteria, applied to three specific pieces of furniture, which confirmed the effectiveness of the tool. In a complementary manner, Nonaka and Takeuchi’s SECI model of knowledge management was used, guaranteeing the continuous updating of the matrices and the adequate retention of knowledge in the company. This methodology will increase the volume of remanufactured products and improve operating margins. By reaping both the economic and environmental benefits of this practice, the company will be able to reduce costs, generate additional revenue, improve its corporate image, and build customer loyalty. At the same time, this study promotes the sustainability and sustainable development of this practice within the company and, by extension, in the broader office furniture manufacturing industry. It can serve as a reference for other companies in this sector across different countries.
Preliminary Analysis and Possibilities of Reducing the Carbon Footprint of Embedded Materials on the Example of Innovative Systemic Railway Stations (ISS)
Authors: Thomas Marta , Ratajczak Maria , Ślosarczyk Agnieszka
Published: November 2024

The paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the environmental impact of building materials used in the construction of railway stations. It analyses two examples of innovative railway stations built in Poland in recent years and examines the impact of the choice of building materials on the Global Warming Potential (GWP) of the stations. The analysis found significant differences in GWP between the two stations, with structural steel being the largest contributor for one station, accounting for 48% of the total GWP. Replacing traditional materials with low-emission alternatives was shown to reduce the total GWP for both stations by around 60%. The research highlights the importance of analysing the GWP of all building materials, even in small quantities, as some materials, such as high-pressure laminates, can have a disproportionate impact on carbon emissions. The study also shows that the correct use of low-carbon building materials in the construction of the station can lead to a significant reduction in the carbon footprint of the building. Collaboration between designers, investors and contractors is essential to achieve sustainable building designs that minimise the environmental impact of construction.

Authors: Xu Xiaohua , Bao Xuecai , Wang Yining , Wang Haijing
Published: November 2024

Spillway blockage detection is crucial for flood prevention and disaster reduction in reservoirs. To address the challenge of detecting the spillway blockages under complex environmental conditions such as rain and fog, this study proposed a three-stage spillway blockage detection method based on deep learning. This method involved the removal of the rain and fog interference, the segmentation of the spillway boundary region, and blockage detection. First, a rain and fog interference removal algorithm based on the dark channel prior theory was developed. Next, an improved lightweight DeepLabv3+ semantic segmentation algorithm was adopted to segment the spillway region from the images. Finally, the improved YOLOv7 object detection algorithm was utilized to identify the blockage debris within a segmented spillway area. The experimental results indicated that the proposed method achieved an average precision of 80.32% under normal conditions and 77.77% under complex conditions, representing improvements of 9.93% and 6.65%, respectively, compared to traditional methods. This method significantly enhanced the detection and identification of blockages in complex environments and could provide effective support for intelligent reservoir flood control and disaster reduction.

Pyrolysis is gaining recognition as a sustainable solution for biosolid management, though scaling it commercially presents challenges. To address this, RMIT developed a novel integrated pyrolysis and gasification technology called PYROCO™, which was successfully tested in pilot-scale trials. This study introduces PYROCO™ and its application to produce biochar, highlighting the biochar properties of the results of the initial trials. In addition, an energy analysis using semi-empirical Aspen Plus modelling, paired with a preliminary techno-economic assessment, was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of this technology. The results show that the PYROCO™ pilot plant produced biochar with a ~30 wt% yield, featuring beneficial agronomic properties such as high organic carbon (210–220 g/kg) and nutrient contents (total P: 36–42 g/kg and total N: 16–18 g/kg). The system also effectively removed contaminants such as PFASs, PAHs, pharmaceuticals, and microplastics from the biochar and scrubber water and stack gas emissions. An energy analysis and Aspen Plus modelling showed that a commercial-scale PYROCO™ plant could operate energy self-sufficiently with biosolids containing >30% solids and with a minimum calorific value of 11 MJ/kg. The process generates excess energy for drying biosolids and for electricity generation. Profitability is sensitive to biochar price; prices rise from AUD 300 to AUD 1000 per tonne, the NPV improves from AUD 0.24 million to AUD 4.31 million, and the payback period shortens from 26 to 12 years. The low NPV and high payback period reflect the use of a relatively high discount rate of 8%, chosen to be on the conservative side given the novel nature of the technology.

Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde Cihadi Selefilik: Ahmet Musa Cibril’in Düşünce Dünyası ve Küresel Cihad Söylemi
Authors: Akkır Ramazan
Published: November 2024

Bu çalışma, Filistin asıllı Amerikalı Selefi vaiz Ahmet Musa Cibril’in düşünceleri ve cihada yaklaşımı çerçevesinde ABD'deki Cihadi Selefiliğin oluşumunu ele almaktadır. Selefilik, 1980'lerden itibaren hem İslam dünyasında hem Batı’da akademik tartışmaların merkezinde yer almıştır. ABD, cihadi selefiliğin tarihinde ayrıcalıklı bir konuma sahip olmuştur. Ancak ABD’de faaliyet gösteren cihadi selefi vaizlerin ideolojik oluşumları, derinlemesine incelenmemiş, detaylı bir biçimde araştırılmamıştır. Cibril’in ideolojisini ele alan detaylı bir çalışma da henüz ortaya çıkmış değildir. Bu çalışma, Cibril’in düşünsel hayatını, konuşmalarını, yazılarını ve bazı videolarını inceleyip yorumlayarak onun küresel cihad yaklaşımına ve cihad söyleminin oluşum sürecine ışık tutmayı ve bu alandaki boşluğu doldurmayı hedeflemektedir. 11 Eylül saldırıları sonrasında ABD'nin İslam dünyasındaki politikaları, Cihadi Selefi grupların meşruiyetini artırmış ve küresel cihad söylemine katkı sağlamıştır. Çalışma, Cibril’in ideolojik gelişimini ve küresel cihad yaklaşımını incelemekte, Suudi Sahve alimlerinin ve El-Kaide'ye yakın Selefi düşünürlerin Cibril üzerindeki etkilerini analiz etmektedir. Wiktorowicz'in Selefiliği pürist, politicos ve cihatçı olarak üç kategoriye ayıran tasnifi doğrultusunda Cibril'in cihad anlayışı yorumlanmıştır. Çalışmanın temel varsayımı, Suudi Selefiliğindeki radikalleşmenin, İslam dünyasındaki siyasi krizlerin ve ABD’nin politikalarının, Cibril’in Cihadi Selefiliğini şekillendirdiğidir. Bu analiz, doküman ve söylem analizine dayanarak yapılmış ve bu alandaki literatür eksikliğini gidermeyi hedeflemektedir.
Tehânevî’nin Keşşâfü ıstılâhati’l-funûn ve’l-‘ulûm Adlı Ansiklopedik Eserindeki Tasavvufî Makamlarla İlgili Maddelere İlişkin Bir İnceleme
Authors: Ulu Mahmut
Published: November 2024

Fıkha dair Ahkâmü’l-arâzî ve tefsire dair Sebku’l-gayât fî neski’l-âyât adlı iki eseri daha bulunan Tehânevî’nin Keşşâfü ıstılâhati’l-funûn ve’l-‘ulûm adlı ansiklopedisi en bilinen eseridir. Eseri diğerlerinden ayıran önemli bir husus sarf, belâgat ve muhâdarât gibi Arap dili ve edebiyatına dair ilimleri; tefsir, hadis, tasavvuf gibi şer‘î ilimleri; mantık, fizik, kimya, tıp, matematik gibi aklî ilimler ile rüya tabiri, sihir, tılsım ve simya gibi daha çok metafizik konuları ele alan elliyi aşkın ilmi çok çeşitli yönleriyle ortaya koymasıdır. Eseri konumuz açısından önemli kılan husus ise çalışmada çok sayıda tasavvufî ıstılaha yer verilmesidir. Nitekim tasavvuf ıstılahıyla ilgili kavramlar eserin önemli bir bölümünü oluşturur. Bu kavramlar tasavvufun belirli alanlarına odaklanmak yerine tasavvufun tanımı, sûfî ve ilintili konular, seyrüsülûk, tarikatların insanî yönü ve mekânları, nefis ve makamları gibi hemen her yönüne odaklanmıştır. Eserde üzerinde durulan ve tanımları verilen kavram gruplarından biri de haller ve makamlara ilişkin maddelerdir. Bu çalışmanın odak noktası Tehânevî’nin makamlara dair maddeleri ele alış şeklidir. Bu bağlamda makamların tanımları, kelime ve terim manaları ile ilişkili olduğu diğer ilimlerdeki karşılığı ile hangi yönlerinin öne çıkarıldığı, tanımlara getirilmiş yeniliklerin varlığı veya yokluğu üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışma bir metin analizi yöntemine dayalı olup bu yönüyle eserde yer alan kavramlar temel tasavvuf literatüründeki anlamlarıyla karşılaştırılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Keşşâf adlı eserde konuyla ilgili öne çıkan başlıca bulgular şunlardır: Makamlar genellikle belli eserlerden alıntılanarak açıklanmıştır. Kavramların bazen öncelikle kelime manası sonra terim manası üzerinde durulmuş ardından diğer ilimlerdeki karşılığı ve tasavvufî ıstılah olarak neye delalet ettiği, bazen de doğrudan terim manasıyla ele alındığı görülmüştür. Eserin tasavvufî kavramlar özelinde alıntılandığı kaynaklardan farklı yeni bir ifade ortaya koyduğunu söylemek güçtür. Ancak bazı tasavvufî ıstılahların diğer ilimlerdeki karşılıklarıyla birlikte ele alınması eseri dönemin tasavvuf ve genel ilmî terminolojinin ele alınış şeklini ortaya koyması açısından önemli kılmaktadır. İşte bu çalışmada makamların tasavvuf terminolojisi açısından değerlendirilmesi ve Tehânevî’nin katkıları ve farklılıkları ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır.

Quality Of Life For Syrian Civil War Refugees In Turkey: A Comparison Between Refugees Living In-Side Camp To Out-Side Camp
Authors: Çavuş Kadir , Şahinöz Saime
Published: November 2024

In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the quality of life of refugees according to their residential areas who want to reach a better life by leaving their living areas due to various human and natural disasters. In addition, another reason that forms the basis for this purpose is the thought that the quality of life of refugees will affect the development of the country in which they will live in the future, together with their knowledge and skills. Internationally valid “quality of life scale” developed by World Health Organization was used in the research. The research was carried out in Pendik district of Istanbul and Yayladağı container city of Hatay. 313 people in the container city and 148 people in Istanbul were able to participate in the research due to some limitations. Data were analyzed by SPSS 22 package program and AMOS 23 package program. In terms of overall quality of life, there was no significant difference between inside and outside the camps. However, there was a significant difference in environmental life quality and single-question quality of life between inside and outside the camps. The environmental quality of life in the camp was 2.98±0.61 and outside the camp, it was 3.13±0.56. In terms of perceived quality of life in a single question, he scored 2.89±0.73 in camps and 3.20±0.80 out of camps. It is recommended to review the policies related to in-camp life, since the average score of the quality of life obtained on a single question basis, the environmental quality of life score, and the average score on the basis of the questions in-camp are lower than the average score out-camp. Regarding this issue, it is recommended to abolish the life in the camps or to improve the conditions further. It is suggested that this proposal should be taken into account in future mass migrations.
Sistematización de una propuesta de vinculación con el medio y articulación curricular en Educación Superior en Chile: el caso de Psicología de la Universidad de Aysén
Authors: Mardones Carrasco Rodrigo Andrés , Guzmán Sánchez Marcela Fernanda
Published: November 2024

This work aims to present the systematization of the process of construction and implementation of a Community Engagement model (hereinafter VcM -in spanish) for the Psychology degree at the University of Aysén (hereinafter, the University); as well as their contributions and challenges to enhance the bridges between university engagement and curricular articulation. The systematized engagement model proposes to consider a community approach in a transversal way, which integrates training in participatory methodologies, intervention and community strengthening, public policies and evaluation of psychosocial projects.
During 2021 and 2022, this model was implemented, which involved working together with various units of the University and social agents together. All of the above, aligned with the Institutional Educational Model, the VcM guidelines, and the curricular itinerary of the degree, considering interline articulations that aim at the development of performance criteria in the practical field.
Through a mixed investigative approach, multi-state diagnoses were constructed together with community partners. The systematization shows the good results in terms of teaching-learning management in VcM, with emphasis on bidirectionality and territorial relevance. On the other hand, the experience challenges the need for greater community-university articulation, considering the importance of the curricular itinerary to improve evaluation processes, with the participation of social agents, allowing the perfectibility of the curriculum based on the needs of the communities themselves.
Spatio-temporal analysis of the role of social determinants of public health in the spread of COVID-19 in the Northwestern federal district
Authors: Ogurtsov Aleksandr , Dmitriev Vasiliy , Kaledin Nikolay
Published: November 2024

Currently, the epidemiological situation for infectious diseases in Russia remains stable, but the problems associated with the spread of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19 remain relevant. Special attention is paid to the analysis of spatial aspects of social inequality and its impact on public health, as well as to the study of the variability of the incidence of COVID-19. The aim of the study was to conduct an integrated assessment of the social determinants of public health at the regional level and identify their role in the spatial and temporal variability of the incidence of coronavirus infection. The study is based on the experience of previous work and covers the territory of 11 constituent entities of the Russian Federation that are part of the Northwestern Federal District. The time frame of the study is limited to three years of infection spread from 2020 to 2022. The authors collected and systematized information on the incidence of COVID-19 in each region and on four groups of social factors. A composite indicator (KP) is proposed as an integral evaluation criterion. The composite indicator characterizes the state of public health in terms of social determinants and their role in the spatial variability of morbidity. Modeling of additive convolution of criteria based on the principles of the ASPID methodology is used as the main method. The paper proposes a two-level hierarchical model for assessing regions. The article contains the results of three scenarios of an integrated assessment of the state of social determinants of health for the regions of the Northwestern Federal District of the Russian Federation. The study revealed spatial trends in the development of COVID-19 in the district, as well as an increase in the incidence of the population over the past three years. The analysis and assessment of the influence of various social factors on the spatial variability of coronavirus infection confirmed the conclusions previously made by the authors that the weight of the social determinants affecting COVID-19 changes over time and in space. The results of the correlation analysis confirm the presence of a negative correlation between composite indicators at each of the hierarchical levels and the incidence of COVID-19. It is noted that the nature of correlations between the composite indicator and the incidence rate varies greatly not only from one evaluation group of criteria to another, but also over a time interval.

Authors: Mineev Arseniy , Semina Irina , Folomeikina Larisa
Published: November 2024

The study is devoted to the analysis of transport accessibility of the settlements in the Republic of Mordovia, which is proposed by the authors as one of the indicators for assessing the level of the transport system development. Methods of spatial analysis and graph theory are used to create a transport network model. The selection of graph elements includes settlements in Mordovia with a population of 2 000 people or more, as well as all sections of highways that provide the shortest paths between them. The measure of distance is used as impedance. The article discusses the usability of geographic and potential accessibility, as well as the detour index to detect problematic elements of the transport network, and compares the indicators using the ranking and classification methods. Using web mapping services and network analysis tools in GIS, the selected indicators were calculated and a series of maps were created to display them, using natural breaks classification method and graduated symbols as a method of cartographic representation. During the study, it was found that some of the shortest paths between the considered settlements of the Republic of Mordovia pass through the Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, which indicates that the regional transport network goes beyond the borders of the federal subject. The problem of artificial barriers within one country at the level of municipal districts and federal subjects has been identified. The possibility of creating a project to improve transport accessibility of the region is being considered, and arguments in favor of the construction of missing direct connections between settlements of the Republic of Mordovia are given. The target indicators and limiting factors for improving the transport accessibility of settlements in the region are identified. The possibilities of further research using the obtained results for a comprehensive analysis of the regional transport system are considered.

Metode kuasi-eksperimen dengan desain pretest-posttest control group digunakan pada 53 siswa kelas X di SMA Islam Al-Azhar NW Kayangan, yang dibagi secara acak menjadi kelompok eksperimen (n=25) dan kontrol (n=28). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kelompok eksperimen yang diajarkan dengan PBL mengalami peningkatan signifikan dalam kemampuan generik sains, terutama pada indikator bahasa simbolik (nilai rata-rata posttest 75,00) dan inferensi logika (29,00), dengan signifikansi 0,000. Peningkatan pemahaman konsep siswa juga signifikan pada kelompok eksperimen, dengan rata-rata posttest 70,60 dibandingkan kelompok kontrol yang hanya mencapai 46,00 (signifikansi 0,003). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa PBL lebih efektif daripada metode konvensional dalam meningkatkan kemampuan generik sains dan pemahaman konsep siswa dalam materi kimia yang kompleks. Penerapan PBL dalam pembelajaran kimia di sekolah disarankan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pemahaman siswa terhadap konsep-konsep abstrak.
The Effect of Problem-Based Learning Model on Students’ Generic Science Skills and Conceptual Understanding
 Abstract
This study aimed to examine the effect of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on students' generic science skills and conceptual understanding of redox reactions. A quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design was employed with 53 tenth-grade students from SMA Islam Al-Azhar NW Kayangan, who were randomly assigned into an experimental group (n=25) and a control group (n=28). The findings revealed that the experimental group taught using PBL showed a significant increase in generic science skills, particularly in symbolic language (posttest mean score of 75.00) and logical inference (29.00), with a significance level of 0.000. Conceptual understanding also improved significantly in the experimental group, with a posttest mean score of 70.60, compared to 46.00 in the control group (significance level of 0.003). These results indicate that PBL is more effective than conventional methods in enhancing both generic science skills and conceptual understanding in complex chemistry topics. The study recommends PBL application in chemistry education to deepen students' understanding of abstract concepts.

Penelitian ini mengkaji pengaruh model Problem-Based Learning (PBL) terhadap keaktifan dan motivasi belajar siswa di MTs Mutiara Hikmah Al-Jubail. Penelitian menggunakan metode eksperimen semu dengan desain posttest only control group, melibatkan 26 siswa kelas VIII yang dibagi dalam kelompok eksperimen (menggunakan PBL) dan kelompok kontrol (metode ceramah). Instrumen keaktifan dan motivasi telah divalidasi untuk mengukur efek perlakuan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa PBL berpengaruh signifikan terhadap peningkatan keaktifan siswa (p < 0,001) dengan peningkatan rerata yang lebih tinggi pada kelompok eksperimen. Namun, PBL tidak menunjukkan pengaruh signifikan terhadap motivasi belajar siswa (p = 0,417). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa PBL dapat meningkatkan keaktifan belajar secara signifikan, namun faktor kontekstual perlu diperhatikan untuk meningkatkan motivasi dalam lingkungan belajar yang berbeda.
The Effect of Problem-Based Learning on Student Engagement and Motivation at Madrasah
Abstract
This study examines the effect of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) on student engagement and motivation at MTs Mutiara Hikmah Al-Jubail. Using a quasi-experimental method with a posttest-only control group design, the study involved 26 eighth-grade students divided into an experimental group (PBL) and a control group (lecture-based method). Validated engagement and motivation instruments were used to measure treatment effects. Results indicate that PBL significantly enhances student engagement (p < 0.001), with a higher mean increase in the experimental group. However, PBL did not show a significant effect on learning motivation (p = 0.417). The study concludes that while PBL effectively increases student engagement, contextual factors should be considered to boost motivation in diverse learning environments.

Objetivo: Relatar um caso de atelectasia redonda na língula do pulmão esquerdo, proveniente de exposição contínua ao asbesto, confirmada por exame histopatológico. Descrição do caso: L.S.C., 26 anos, sexo feminino, procurou atendimento de emergência em 30 de julho de 2024, com quadro de dispneia intensa e dor torácica. A paciente já relatava dificuldade respiratória há alguns dias e havia realizado uma tomografia computadorizada (TC) em 29 de julho de 2024, após consulta particular. O exame revelou uma área de atelectasia redonda na língula do pulmão esquerdo. A paciente tinha histórico de 10 anos de exposição ocupacional ao amianto. Devido ao quadro clínico, foi internada em 30 de julho de 2024. No dia 31 de julho de 2024, foi submetida a uma segmentectomia pulmonar, que foi bem-sucedida. A paciente recebeu alta no dia 2 de agosto de 2024. O segmento pulmonar retirado foi encaminhado para análise histopatológica, que confirmou o diagnóstico de asbestose pulmonar associada à atelectasia redonda. Considerações finais: Embora pouco comum, a atelectasia redonda está fortemente associada à exposição ocupacional ao amianto. Essa condição é frequentemente confundida com neoplasias devido à sua apresentação nodular nos exames de imagem. A tomografia computadorizada de tórax é fundamental para o diagnóstico, pois permite melhor distinção da lesão, incluindo a visualização do "sinal da cauda de cometa", característico da atelectasia redonda. Em casos suspeitos de atelectasia redonda, é crucial investigar a história de exposição ao asbesto. O tratamento pode ser conservador ou cirúrgico, especialmente quando o paciente apresenta complicações.

The rise of antibiotic resistance has created an urgent need for the discovery of new antibiotic compounds. Streptomycin, the first antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces sp., paved the way for discovering other antibiotics for combating bacterial infections. By exploring the genome-based biosynthetic potential of various Streptomyces species, a vast array of secondary metabolites with potential therapeutic applications can be identified, contributing a transformative impact on the field of medicine. However, conventional screening approaches on novel natural products (NPs) from Streptomyces sp. have entered a bottleneck due to inefficiency. Fortunately, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models enable rapid exploration and prediction of potential antibiotic compounds, increasing the probability of discovering new antibacterial compounds. AI-driven drug discovery in Streptomyces sp. represents a paradigm shift in the future quest for novel pharmaceutical agents. Various ML models have been developed and applied in different practical applications. Overall, the ML model is trained using input data and generates outcomes based on prediction output. This review discusses the continued potential of Streptomyces sp. as a source of novel NPs, along with the application of ML throughout the NP drug discovery pipeline involving genome mining, biological activities prediction, and optimization compound production in Streptomyces microbial systems.
