Effect of C-Suite Members’ Social Network Capital on Tail Risk
Authors: Fairfield Amy
Published: February 2024

The purpose of this research is to analyze the impact of the CEO’s and CFO’s social network capital on tail risk.  The CEO and CFO are the most dominant members of the top management team.  Relationships between the CEO, CFO, and a firm’s stakeholder groups (shareholders, employees, customers and suppliers, society, the environment, and government) form to create a social network that can evolve into social capital.  I tested whether the CEO and CFO, with high social capital, can reduce the probability of their company stock persistently landing in the bottom 10% of yearly returns.  Various stakeholders in the hierarchy of a social capital network can contribute to this prevention.  I found the CFO total connections variable significant in the base model, the overall model, and several subsample models.  The interesting result was that CFO and CEO total connections were significant with market risk but not idiosyncratic risk.

The intricacy of Sprite's operational processes is once again demonstrated through the utilisation of digital content analysis
A Preliminary Comparative Analysis of Russian Military Operations in Grozny and Kyiv | Uma análise comparative preliminary das operações militares russas em Grozny e em Kyiv
Authors: Gomes João
Published: February 2024

The article aims at a comparative analysis of the Russian military operations in Kyiv, during the current war in Ukraine, and those carried out in Grozny, during the 1st Chechen War, namely from a discursive and operational standpoint, in order to highlight similarities and differences between both cases and clarify the comparisons used during the attempted siege of Kyiv. The analysis shows the existence of several similarities between the Russian invasion of Kyiv and that of Grozny, notwithstanding the end result, namely from the discursive, the Russian armed force’s preparation and planning, the adversary’s response and the invader’s moral standpoints, as well as in the use of heavy artillery, namely against civilian populations. These similarities raise additional questions about the Russian armed force’s loss of quality during the Putin era, following several military successes. Lastly, the use of this comparison served essentially to raise awareness in the public and in international institutions about what could happen in Kyiv (and in the rest of Ukraine) and to emphasise the need for support to Ukraine on the West’s behalf.
Efforts to discuss alleviating South-South conflict in Korean society
Authors:   Association for the Reunificational Education of Korea, Park Chanseok
Published: February 2024

The governments of North and South Korea are unable to internally converge on peace and unification. Accordingly, discussions among civic groups in Korean society are requested to seek discussions on the direction for peace and unification unfolding in North and South Korea. In reality, Korean society is in more urgent need of practicing a cooperative approach to inter-Korean reconciliation. Therefore, this study seeks to identify areas where civic groups' perceptions of peace and unification existing in North and South Korea may converge. Through this, Korean society seeks to advance the meaning of peace and unification and the will for integration. The unification movement and various measures of unification education must be strengthened to alleviate South-South conflict. Accordingly, we would like to discuss whether it is possible to seek to alleviate the South-South conflict by understanding the left and right groups that exist in our society, the Pan-National Alliance and the Free North Korea Democratic Alliance
Peace and Unification tourism to a national cemetery: Focusing on the National Cemetery for Overseas Koreans and Daejeon National Cemetery
Authors:   Association for the Reunificational Education of Korea, Kim JinHwan
Published: February 2024

The 'Korean Peninsula Peace tourism' is a practice of reflecting on the patterns and reasons for the violence experienced by people living on the Korean Peninsula and raising hope that peace can be realized on the Korean Peninsula. At schools, it is conducted in the form of field experience learning in places related to peace and unification. In order to promote school peace and unification field experience learning, it is necessary to break away from the inertia of visiting only areas near the DMZ and discover various field experience learning locations close to schools. In this article, first, we theoretically explained why the ‘National Cemetery of the Republic of Korea’ can be a good place for peace and unification field experience learning based on the fluidity of placeness and the multidimensionality of violence on the Korean Peninsula. Next, we presented facilities worth noting at the National Cemetery for Overseas Koreans and Daejeon National Cemetery and topics that teachers and students there could talk about in relation to peace and unification. Through this work, the goal of this article is to contribute to the revitalization of ‘local peace tourism’ that contemplate peace and unification near schools, focusing on the memories of individuals, families, and regions.

Extended Kalman Filter Design to Estimate the Attitude of the Nanosatellite System Using Magnetometer
Authors: Silva Carlos , McKell George , Parker Linda
Published: February 2024

The problem of estimating nonlinear systems is an important issue in many engineering applications. One of these applications is in the nanosatellite for Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications, which is used to replace sensors in the event of failure or error. Therefore, the accuracy of pre-filter estimation is of great importance. To control the orientation of a satellite, it is important to estimate the attitude accurately. Time-series estimation is especially important in micro and nanosatellites, whose sensors are usually low-cost and have higher noise levels than high-end sensors. Also, the algorithms should be able to run on systems with very restricted computer power. In this paper, an overview of the algorithms used to determine the attitude of nanosatellites, and especially using only the magnetometer sensor, will be discussed. This paper aims to simulate a nanosatellite system to estimate the magnetic field derivative vector using only the magnetometer data with the desired accuracy. The estimated vectors in the pre-filter, along with the magnetometer sensor data, are used to estimate the attitude of the satellite. The estimation of the state vector consisting of the vector part of quaternion and the angular velocity vector is used for the control calculation. To evaluate the accuracy of this pre-filter, a comparison of the magnetometer vector estimator with the body sensor data has been used.
Design a Condition Monitoring System for Rotating Machinery Gearboxes by Oil Quality Measurements and Vibration Analyses
Authors: Gohari Mohammad , Tahmasebi Mona , Ghorbani Mahdi
Published: February 2024

Every year high costs are expending to repair rotating machinery in factories and industrial centers due to failures. Most failures happen suddenly while by condition monitoring of systems prognosis and diagnosis are possible. By condition monitoring, the failures can be detected and solved in the early stages. Gearboxes are an element used widely, and applying condition monitoring for them makes a significant benefit for saving budget due to prognosis and removing failure before progress. The current paper aims to present a condition monitoring system for gearbox which is able to inspect lubricant by oil temperature and pH. Moreover, it can detect some defects in the gearbox by vibration analyses such as unbalance, bent shaft, looseness in bearing housing, and whirl of oil. The evaluation of the system shows that its accuracy is proper for use in gearboxes.
DC to AC Inverter Prototype for Small Scale Power Supply with SPWM Method
Authors: Listyantoro Fiki , Ma'arif Alfian , Sharkawy Abdel-Nasser , Marhoon Hamzah M.
Published: February 2024

Inverter is a device to convert Dc current voltage into AC current voltage. In this article, the inverter is designed using the H-Bridge configuration. The advantage of this configuration is that there is no need for diodes and capacitors to balance the voltage. The main components in designing this inverter are the Arduino Nano, the IR2103 IC, and also the MOSFET. The switching method used is SPWM with H-Bridge configuration which is controlled by 2 IC IR2103. Based on the test results, the output voltage of this inverter is 7.45 Volts. With a DC voltage of 12 Volts. With the use of an oscilloscope that is used to measure the output waveform from the switching results of the MOSFET, the signal is still in the form of a square wave. To make a sine wave, an inductor filter is needed which functions to produce a signal to become a sine wave, and to keep the frequency at 50Hz. The voltage generated from the step-up transformer can be adjusted by rotating the feedback trimpot. The resulting voltage is 88 Vac to 260 Vac. and can accommodate a maximum load of 250 Watts. This inverter is also equipped with a PZEM-004T sensor which functions to read voltage, current, frequency and power data.
PID Control Tuning Based on Wind Speed Sensor in Flying Robot
Authors: Hasan Fadlur Rahman T , Akbar Son Ali
Published: February 2024

The problem that is often faced by flying robots when carrying out the Vertical Take Off Landing (VTOL) process is the lack of stability of the vehicle due to differences in wind speed at any time. This is because the PID that has been pre-tuned is the PID at a certain wind speed and it is possible that during the race the wind speed suddenly changes, causing the vehicle to be less stable in carrying out the mission. Therefore, this study proposes a PID Control Tuning Control system based on the Wind Speed Sensor. In experiments that have been carried out with anemometer readings of 1-5 m/s, the ideal tuning results are obtained with each parameter P_roll = 0.1453, I_roll = 0.0892, D_roll = 0.004, P_pitch = 0.144, I_pitch = 0.09, D_pitch = 0.004, P_yaw = 0.184, I_yaw = 0.0184, D_yaw = 0.00309. In experiments with anemometer readings of 6-10 m/s, the ideal tuning results were obtained with each parameter P_roll = 0.148, I_roll = 0.0905, D_roll = 0.004, P_pitch = 0.1444, I_pitch = 0.09, D_pitch = 0.004, P_yaw = 0.1867, I_yaw = 0.0181, D_yaw = 0.0037. In an experiment with an anemometer reading of 11-15 m/s, the ideal tuning results were obtained with each parameter P_roll = 0.1494, I_roll = 0.09, D_roll = 0.004, P_pitch = 0.1457, I_pitch = 0.0902, D_pitch = 0.004, P_yaw = 0.1894, I_yaw = 0.018, D_yaw = 0.0037. PID adjustment based on this anemometer sensor utilizes the latest real-time wind speed data to support the robot in order to overcome instability in certain wind conditions by tuning PID so that the vehicle can maintain stability when carrying out certain missions.
Design and Implementation of Arduino-Based Sterilization Robot
Authors: Khalaf Omar Raad , Almukhtar Aya A.
Published: February 2024

In this paper, the primary objective is to design implement a low-cost mobile robot used for the sterilization and control of toxic and flammable gas leaks in the polluted areas. To implement the proposed robot, we employ a tank robot structure equipped with sensors/modules for detection, sterilization, and environmental analysis. The robot is outfitted with a camera to enhance its surveillance capabilities. For sterilization, we utilize ultraviolet rays emitted by a UV Lamp (220V Sterilizer 8W-T5 Tube) in infested areas. Special sensors are strategically placed to identify gases and viruses in the target locations. The sensors include MQ-2 for detecting gases like methane, butane, and smoke, MQ-9 for identifying carbon monoxide and flammable gases, and MQ-135 for continuous measurement of air purity. The UV rays can be remotely activated and deactivated through an infrared control system. Simultaneously, the sensor values (MQ-2, MQ-9, MQ-135) are consistently monitored and transmitted to a central authority responsible for remote surveillance. If any hazardous or toxic gases are detected, the system triggers an alarm, notifying relevant authorities to take prompt action. This integrated approach ensures the efficient sterilization of contaminated areas while actively monitoring and responding to potential gas leaks. The combination of sterilization technology, gas detection sensors, and remote monitoring enhances the safety and effectiveness of the entire system. In the future developments, many approaches can be used such as increasing the controlling area by using Wi-Fi or LoRa and using additional sensors for harmful gas detection.

Internet of Things (IoT) enabled cyber physical systems such as Industrial equipment’s and operational IT to send and receive data over internet. This equipment’s will have sensors to sense equipment condition and report to centralized server using internet connection. Sometime some malicious users may attack or hack such sensors and then alter their data and this false data will be report to centralized server and false action will be taken. Due to false data many countries equipment and production system got failed and many algorithms was developed to detect attack, but all these algorithms suffer from data imbalance (one class my contains huge records (for example NORMAL records and other class like attack may contains few records which lead to imbalance problem and detection algorithms may failed to predict accurately). To deal with data imbalance, existing algorithms were using OVER and UNDER sampling which will generate new records for FEWER class only. Securing Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled cyberphysical systems (CPS) can be challenging, as security solutions developed for general information / operational technology (IT / OT) systems may not be as effective in a CPS setting. Thus, this paper presents a two-level ensemble attack detection and attribution framework designed for CPS, and more specifically in an industrial control system (ICS). At the first level, a decision tree combined with a novel ensemble deep representation learning model is developed for detecting attacks imbalanced ICS environments. At the second level, an ensemble deep neural network is designed for attack attribution.The connection between ICS or IIoT-based systems with public networks, however, increases their attack surfaces and risks of being targeted by cyber criminals.To overcome from this issue, we are introducing novel technique without using any under or oversampling algorithms. The proposed technique consists of 2 parts. Auto encoder: It will get trained on imbalanced dataset and then extract features from it and these extracted features will get trained with DECISION TREE algorithm to predict label for known or unknown attacks. Decision tree get trained on reduced number of features obtained from PCA (principal component analysis) algorithm. Deep Neural Network (DNN): In this level, DNN algorithm get trained on known and unknown attacks. Key Word: Cyber Physical Systems (CPS), Industrial Control System (ICS).

Exploring the Experience of Degree Apprentices and Academics in Fostering Managerial-Level Competencies: A Case of Vocational Degrees within the UK Higher Education
Authors:   School of Leadership and Strategic Management: The Academy for Advance Studies (TAAS), UK, Pius A
Published: February 2024

The paper presents the experience of academic staff and degree apprentices in fostering degree-level knowledge, skills, and behaviour (KSBs) in management fields. Indeed, vocational degrees bring together contemporary academic theory and research with a practical understanding of activities within the sector. A model proposed by Edmund (2007), where a successful work-integrated programme is likened to ‘apprentices, employers, and universities’ in a training approach. As such apprentices' learning journey begins with (apprentice-employer relationships), followed by education (apprentice relationships with the institution) and codification of knowledge (apprentice, employer and learning provider relationship). To operationalize Edmund’s model in this paper, KSBs are acquired by the degree apprentices in the classroom setting (theory) and the application of acquired KSBs in the work environment (practice) to solve real-life issues in management fields. Consequently, a new message is required to reposition the vocational degrees narrative in the public domain as sub-standard degrees that are fit for purpose. To address this issue, the paper established that degree apprentices are well-equipped with advanced methodological and theoretical competencies, they are trained to analyse and manage an ever-changing workplace, and to be self-reliant, adaptable, and confident in their discipline as it develops over time. The paper results confirmed that the vocational degrees pathway is very competent in the development of managerial-level competencies for management professionals. It contributes positively to the management sector in terms of degree-level knowledge, skills, and behaviour. To enhance the credibility of vocational degrees the government needs to do more in the awareness campaign within under-represented communities.

The development of Critical Thinking (CT) is essential so that one can think in a rational and reflective way, focused on what one should believe and do. In this sense, the debate on the use of Teaching Methodologies (ME) that encourage the development of CT in the training of students, future citizens, is indispensable. We aimed to investigate the potential of PC development in the main EM used in the Colombian context to teach Science. The present research is configured as a qualitative research in education, of documental nature, developed in three stages: pre-analysis, exploration of the material and treatment and interpretation of the results. From the analyzed data, we noticed that the ME that best promotes CT is Project Pedagogy, followed by: teaching through investigation, teaching through research/educating through research, investigative experimentation and problem solving. We also realized that all analyzed MEs can promote CT in Science, when well mediated by the teacher.
