How does information affect vote choice in open-list PR systems?
Authors: Quoß Franziska , Rudolph Lukas , Däubler Thomas
Published: January 2024

List proportional representation with candidate voting can facilitate policy representation in multiple dimensions, but candidates with deviating positions may actually not benefit if cues such as shared socio-demographics drive candidate choice instead. Does this use of cues reflect a lack of policy-related information or a preference for descriptive representation? We study this question in a real-world context, using a survey-embedded experiment that emulates actual vote choice, shortly after the 2019 Swiss elections. We vary the level of information on candidates' policy positions in zero, one or two dimensions (left-right, environmental protection). As expected, we find that spatial proximity voting increases with better information on the secondary dimension (but not on the first one). Same-gender and same-age voting slightly decrease when more information is available. The preference for local candidates remains strong.Our results inform debates regarding citizens' preferences for different types of representation and how electoral systems moderate their expression.

This paper presents the perspective that universe is relative. Theuniverse, which changes according to the observer’s proper time, isdynamic. Generally, the universe expands, but if the observer acceleratesenough, contraction is also possible. The Hubble parameter merelyrepresents that change. If the Hubble parameter is dependent on theproper time, the measurement can only be uncertain. Identifying thefactors that influence the proper time could potentially lead to a moreaccurate measurement of the universe’s age, and it could also offerinsights into the state of the early universe and the causes of theaccelerated expansion observed in the current epoch.

Registered report (Stage 1 - preprint): Can the pupil old/new effect track the impact of mind-wandering and boredom on recognition memory?
Authors: Lapteva Alexandra , Wolff Wanja , Martarelli Corinna
Published: January 2024

Mind-wandering and boredom are common phenomena, characterized by shifts in attention and difficulties in sustaining focus. Despite extensive research on the costs and benefits of these states, our understanding of the relationship between mind-wandering, boredom, attention, and memory remains limited. In the proposed study, we wish to examine the impact that mind-wandering and boredom during encoding have on recognition. In particular, we seek to investigate what impact mind-wandering and boredom have during the encoding of visual material on the pupil old/new effect at recognition of the same material. We will use an incidental memory task and measure mind-wandering and boredom with thought probes during encoding. Furthermore, we will use the pupil old/new effect assessed via eye-tracking as a measure of recognition. Will old stimuli encoded during mind-wandering and boredom elicit the same pupillary response as new stimuli, or will the pupil, during recognition, still recognize the stimulus as an old one? We predict that the encoding of stimuli during mind-wandering and boredom reduces the pupil old-new effect, in other words, we expect the difference between the pupil size during old and new stimuli to be diminished. Furthermore, we expect mind-wandering to be a better predictor than boredom.
Effect of Normal Force Intensity on Tactile Motion Speed Perception based on Spatiotemporal Cue
Authors: Ujitoko Yusuke , Takenaka Yuko , Hirota Koichi
Published: January 2024

While the relative motion between the skin and objects in contact with it is essential to everyday tactile experiences, our understanding of how tactile motion is perceived via human tactile function is limited. Previous studies have explored the effect of normal force on speed perception under conditions where multiple motion cues on the skin (spatiotemporal cue, tangential skin deformation cue, and slip-induced vibration cue) were integrated. However, the effect of the normal force on speed perception in terms of each motion cue remains unclear since the multiple motion cues have not been adequately separated in the previously reported experiments. In this study, we aim to elucidate the effect of normal force in situations where the speed perception of tactile motion is based solely on a spatiotemporal cue. We developed a pin-array display which allowed us to vary the intensity of the normal force without causing tangential forces or slip-induced vibrations. Using the display, we conducted two psychophysical experiments. In Experiment 1, we found that the speed of the object was perceived to be 1.12-1.14 times faster when the intensity of the normal force was doubled. In Experiment 2, we did not observe differences in the discriminability of tactile speed caused by differences in normal force intensity. Our experimental results are of scientific significance and offer insights for engineering applications when using haptic displays that can only provide spatiotemporal cues represented by normal forces.
What have we learned from the replication crisis? Integrating open research into social psychology teaching
Authors: Pennington Charlotte Rebecca , Pownall Madeleine
Published: January 2024

Social psychology is in the midst of a ‘replication crisis’, triggered by attempts to replicate many of this discipline’s seminal findings unsuccessfully. In order to increase the credibility of social psychology, there has been a growing emphasis on more ‘open’ ways of approaching research. Open research reflects the notion that knowledge should be accessible, transparent, rigorous, reproducible, replicable, and inclusive. However, whilst this reform has swept the research landscape, the teaching of the replication crisis and open research has not yet been routinely embedded within the higher education curriculum. Social psychology textbooks continue to focus on non-replicable phenomena, and discussions around replication and open research are mainly absent from the classroom. In this chapter, we provide a brief overview of the replication crisis and open research, considering what this means for educators who teach social psychology. We then provide four case studies to ease integration of this within curriculum (re)design.
Educated folk intuitions about free will and determinism: A case study in experimental public philosophy
Authors: Giraud Thibaut , Cova Florian
Published: January 2024

Experimental philosophers have been investigating folk intuitions about free will and moral responsibility, wondering whether our intuitive understanding of free will and moral responsibility make them compatible or incompatible with determinism. However, methodological worries have been raised concerning such studies: some have claimed that participants in such studies are simply unable to understand the materials they are presented with. To bypass such methodological worries, we investigated “educated” folk intuitions, that is: intuitions of people who are not philosophers but have enough personal interest in philosophy to have a good grasp of philosophical concepts, and to which the vignettes and their context have been explained before they answer. To this end, we took the opportunity of a video and online survey (N = 4385) released by a popular French philosophy youtuber. The results suggest that, even in this context, the results of previous surveys replicate, suggesting that participants’ inclination toward compatibilism is not the mere product of a comprehension error.
BLACK AND WHITE AMERICANS’ AFFECTIVE EXPERIENCES AND PERCEPTIONS OF DISCRIMINATION IN MUNDANE SOCIAL CONTEXTS
Authors: Mulwa Kenya
Published: January 2024

The list of disparate experiences and outcomes lived by Black versus White Americans is a long one. The plethora of ubiquitous differences in extant literature offer some interesting questions: Just how different are the day-to-day experiences of Black Americans compared to their White counterparts? And how do these contrasting experiences influence affective reactions and perceptions to seemingly mundane social interactions? The proposed study aimed to answer these questions by evaluating the affective experiences from individuals within each racial group after experiencing a mundane, ambiguous, yet race-salient event. Prolific users (N = 203; Black = 103, White = 100) were presented three low (LRS) and three ambiguous race-salient (ARS) events via vignettes. Participants were prompted to read the vignettes as if they were experiencing the events themselves, then reported their subsequent affective reactions and perceptions. Contrary to hypotheses, results indicated no significant differences in affective or perceptual reactions between Black and White participants in the ARS condition after controlling for reactions in the LRS condition. Among Black participants, analyses revealed an interaction between negative reactions in the LRS condition and Black Identity Centrality (BIC) on negative reactions in the ARS condition. When negative reactions to events in the LRS condition were low, participants high in BIC reacted more negatively to events in the ARS condition than those low in BIC, but when negative reactions to the LRS condition where high, participants low in BIC reacted more negatively to events in the ARS condition than participants high in BIC. A similar interaction was found for positive reactions and scores on the Modern Racism Scale (MRS) among White participants.
Where Do Opportunity Beliefs Come From? Implications of Intergenerational Social Mobility for Beliefs About the Distribution System in China
Authors: Wang Peng , Olivos Francisco
Published: January 2024

People’s understanding of the drivers of inequality is a function of their position in the social structure. Nevertheless, the ways in which intergenerational social mobility is associated with opportunity beliefs remains under researched. Recent findings in cultural sociology suggest that individuals seldom update their beliefs, and that settled dispositions lead people to reproduce their beliefs in their adulthood. This study used a probabilistic and representative survey of Chinese citizens to explore how intergenerational social mobility relates to opportunity beliefs. China presents an interesting context to explore this question, since Chinese society is considered to be highly unequal yet highly tolerant of social inequalities. Our results indicate a U-shaped relationship between social class and opportunity beliefs. The upper class and farmers exhibit stronger meritocratic beliefs than middle-classes. Moreover, upwardly and downwardly mobile individuals show greater weights for origin and destination, respectively. Thus, opportunity beliefs are explained by the social class where they rank lower. These findings suggest that when beliefs are updated through social mobility, they interact with the mobility trajectory. In addition, the stronger meritocratic beliefs of the farmers’ class and the greater weight of social origin for upwardly mobile individuals could help explain the dormant social volcano in China.
Sentiments of Solidarity: Varying Conceptions of Nationhood in Turkey
Authors: Keskintürk Turgut , Kuyucu Tuna
Published: January 2024

Studies on nationalism have recently transitioned from macro-level analyses of large structural factors to micro-level examinations, emphasizing nationalism as a set of cultural and political beliefs held by individuals. Such works that use opinion measures to explore heterogeneity in national self-understandings show that nationalist beliefs distribute among the public in particular and non-random ways, though the extent to which these heterogeneities induce variation in behavioral outcomes remains relatively unexplored. In this article, we argue that varying conceptions of nationhood inform ethnonational boundary-making strategies and social action. Using latent class analyses and a resource allocation task in original representative survey data (N = 1,460), we ask whether varying cultural positions on nationhood covaries with preferential behavior. We found that nationalist cultural models provide heterogeneous cultural templates and lead to preferential treatment of ethnonational ingroups.

Published: January 2024

This study presents the results of research on the climatic signal of radial growth of Siberian larch (Larix cajanderi Mayr.) in the Omoloy River Basin, (north-eastYakutia). Tree-ring width chronologies were obtained from three sites  located in the valley complexes of subarctic tundra and forest-tundra ecotone, with chronologies spanning up to 498 years. Comparative analysis of radial growth dynamics and its statistical parameters indicated similar variability patterns within the study region. Dendroclimatic analysis revealed that the primary limiting factor determining the magnitude of radial growth in Siberianlarch is the air temperature during the first half of the growing season. Increasing temperatures have led to an increased role of precipitation and changes in the strength of growth-temperature correlations, especially in northern sites.This study highlights the potential for dendroclimatic and dendroecological researchin northern Yakutia.

Published: January 2024

The majority of Russia’s oil and gas-producing regions are situated in the northern part of Western Siberia, where sandy podzolic soils are prevalent. Due to the low buffering capacity of these soils and the severe Arctic climate, the conventional method of bioremediation for removing oil contamination is not effective. This study, for the first time, explores the potential of adsorptive bioremediation for purifying oil-polluted gley-podzolic soil. This approach involves introducing natural sorbents of various classes before soil treatment through bioremediation. The optimal conditions for soil treatment can be determined using the express phytotests based on white clover ( Trifolium repens ) seed germination. The results indicate that under the best conditions, which involve adding 2 % mixed sorbent based on granulated activated carbon (GAC) and diatomite (4:1) or Spilsorb, it is possible to minimize soil phytotoxicity after 2-3 warm seasons and reduce the content of total petroleum hydrocarbons to the permissible residual oil content (≤5 g/kg) established in the territory of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug for recultivated agricultural soils. Moreover, other sorbents, such as peat, GAC, vermiculite, zeolite, and diatomite, can be used to reduce phytotoxicity to <33 %, allowing for additional soil decontamination through phytoremediation.
A Comprehensive Assessment of the Quality of Supplied Drinking Water in Galyang Municipality of Syangja, Nepal
Authors: Bhandari Hari , Sapkota Kamal Prasad
Published: January 2024

A thorough assessment on the municipally supplied water samples from Malunga and Galyang cities; two different places in the Syangja district focused on analyzing various water quality parameters. These parameters included pH value, alkalinity, electrical conductivity, turbidity/suspended solids, chloride contents, and the presence of acid and basic radicals (heavy metal ions).

The results obtained from standard laboratory probes carried out on-site and at the chemistry laboratory of Amrit Campus, indicated that the pH value, alkalinity, electrical conductivity, chloride contents, and the presence of acid radicals (nitrate, sulfate, and chloride) and basic radicals (toxic heavy metal ions) in the water samples were all within the safe limits for potable water as suggested by both the National Drinking Water Quality Standards (NDWQS) of Nepal and the World Health Organization (WHO).

However, it was disclosed that the total suspended solids in the water samples existed in higher concentrations, leading to coagulation and the formation of thin, flat, whitish lumps during long-term storage of the samples.

Overall, while the study determined that the water samples concurred the safe limits for most parameters set by NDWQS and WHO, the higher concentration of total suspended solids during prolonged storage suggests a potential attention to be paid for the improvement of the quality.

Published: January 2024

Nutritional knowledge and practices among adolescents are critical to combat health problems that can continue into adulthood. The study determines the nutritional knowledge and dietary diversity and its associated factors among school adolescents of Kathmandu Valley. The study adopted a cross-sectional design of 487 school adolescents using multistage cluster sampling. Information on socio-demographic characteristics, Health Belief Model constructs, nutrition knowledge and dietary diversity were collected. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify the factors associated with nutrition knowledge and dietary diversity. Nutrition knowledge and dietary diversity were found inadequate; 47.4% had adequate dietary diversity and 42.5% had adequate nutrition knowledge Variables that were significantly associated with adequate nutrition knowledge (versus inadequate) in the presence of other variables were compared to reference group included age (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]= 0.83; 95% CI = 0.71-0.96), being from ethnic groups of Janajatis (aOR=2.79; 95% CI: 1.47-5.28) and Brahmin/Chhetri (aOR=1.9; 95% CI: 1.06-3.4), belonging to nuclear family (aOR=1.75; 95% CI: 1.18-2.6), literate father (aOR=2.16; 95% CI: 0.99-4.73), perceived severity (aOR= 1.19; 95% CI: 1.06-1.33) and perceived barrier (aOR= 1.02 ; 95% CI: 1-1.05). Variables that were significantly associated with consuming adequate dietary diversity (versus inadequate) in the presence of other variables include being male (aOR=1.52;95% CI: 1.01-2.29), having literate mother (aOR=1.7;95% CI: 1.02-2.83), consuming unhealthy diet daily (aOR=4.23;95% CI: 1.85-9.67), having adequate knowledge (aOR=2.4;95% CI: 1.59-3.63) and self-efficacy (aOR= 1.15;95% CI: 1.06-1.24). This study highlights the need for specific theories and model-based targeted interventions to encourage adolescents' healthy behavior and healthy eating.
Effects of Primary Caregivers’ Feeding Habits on the Nutrition Status of Pre-schoolers in Rupandehi District of Nepal
Authors: Sharma Prakash , Budhathoki Chitra Bahadur
Published: January 2024

Healthy food habits of primary caregivers may contribute to the overall growth, development, and optimal health of the ppreschoolers. This quantitative research aimed to examine the impact of the feeding practices of caregivers on nutritional status of 384 preschoolers (aged 36-71 months) in Rupandehi District of Nepal. The effects of feeding habit were compared with the nutritional status and thus the impact was examined. Information regarding socio-economic standing, demographics, feeding habits, and children’s nutrition statuses were collected through direct interviews and anthropometric measurement. The nutritional status of the children, including height-for-age (HAZ), weight-for-height (WAZ), and BMI-for-age z-scores (BAZ), was assessed using WHO Anthro, WHO Anthro Plus, and SPSS version 26 software. Statistical analysis involved Chi-square tests and logistic regression with a significance threshold established at p<0.05. The finding indicates that 44.5% of preschoolers had normal nutrition status, whereas 38.8% received sufficient feeding practices from their caregivers. Feeding habits, economic status, fathers' occupation, and family structure appeared as significant predictors of preschoolers’ nutrition status. Preschoolers from economically marginalized backgrounds, with fathers in business occupations, and living in joint families were found to be at higher risk of poor nutrition. The findings imply that implementing feeding habit interventions to the children of lower economic backgrounds is desirable to bring the changes in their nutritional status. So, some nutritional strategies should be taken into consideration to take care of the children who are in joint families and whose parents could not give more time due to their occupation.

Authors: Shrestha Tumla , Bista Archana Pandey , Subedi Madhusudan
Published: January 2024

Preterm infants (PTIs) require special care in neonatal care units (NCUs) for their survival, growth, and development. Nurses are in a pivotal position to provide quality care to those infants in NCUs. Available literature indicates that care practice needs to be improved in developing countries. This study aimed to explore the nursing care practice for PTIs in NCUs. An exploratory qualitative study was conducted in NCUs of three public tertiary care hospitals in Kathmandu, Nepal, from November 2019 to February 2020. Data were collected through six focus group discussions among 40 nurses working in NCUs. The thematic analysis of qualitative data revealed standardized and inadequate care practices for PTIs in NCUs. Standard practices regarding thermal care, oxygen administration, nutritional care, and infection prevention were found. Inadequate care was identified regarding sleep protection, proper positioning, supportive sensory environment, and pain management. The study reported the standard care practice areas and areas for improvement to enhance nursing care in NCUs, such as pain management, sleep promotion, breastfeeding support, kangaroo mother care, and a supportive sensory environment. The findings have important implications for enhancing care practices for PTIs in NCUs, which is important for promoting the short- and long-term outcomes among PTIs.

PUBLIC INTEREST IN THE SOCIAL ECONOMY
Authors: Powałowski Andrzej , Przeszło Ewa
Published: January 2024

The social market economy requires multifaceted care to preserve its essence (standard) and the appropriate balance between ‘marketisation’ and ‘socialisation’. This should be fostered by defining the content of the ‘public interest’ clause, and the social interest in particular, when determining all circumstances related to the functioning of the social market economy because it is in the public (social) interest for the market economy to be linked to social needs. The public (social) interest is at the same time the premise for the formation and development of what is to be regarded as the ‘social economy’. The same interest requires that the created social economy should be supported by providing it with the assistance of both a subjective and functional nature.
ORDER FOR THE CONTINUATION OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY BY AN ENERGY COMPANY IN THE SOCIAL INTEREST
Authors: Wolska Hanna
Published: January 2024

Article 40 of the Energy Law Act of 10 April 1997 provides for the possibility for the President of the Energy Regulatory Office to order the continuation of economic activity by an energy company despite the expiry of a license. This is a special regulation related to the need to ensure the continuity of supplies and protection of recipients of energy services when required by social interest. Therefore, this regulation provides for an exception to the principle of the freedom to undertake, perform, and terminate economic activity. The purpose of this article is to draw attention to the fact that the necessity to ensure the provision of energy services in a continuous manner means that the state imposes an obligation on energy companies to continue economic activity, at the same time not guaranteeing the entrepreneurs sufficient compensation in the form of appropriate remuneration for continuing the economic activity. Pursuant to the provisions of the Energy Law Act of 10 April 1997, an energy company is only entitled to loss coverage and only in the amount limited to the justified costs of the ordered activity.

The Effects of Resveratrol Supplementation on the Quality of Life of Diabetic Patients with Neuropathy: Small Randomized Clinical Trial
Authors: M. Amin Gulabakh , Marouf Bushra Hassan , Namiq Hiwa
Published: January 2024

The diabetic neuropathy complication exerts a considerable decline in the level of patient’s well-being. The main approaches to hamper the progression of diabetic complications and improve patient’s life quality are controlling the glycemic levels and amelioration of the hyperglycemia-induced neuroinflammation, oxidative stress and pain. Supplementation of appropriate anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidants such as resveratrol may therefore be effective in the management of diabetic complications. The aim of this trial was to assess resveratrol’s impact on improving life quality of patients with the neuropathic complication of diabetes. Sixty-one patients with diabetic neuropathy were recruited in this double-blinded placebo-controlled trial. Patients were randomized into the resveratrol (n=31) group; who received a 500mg resveratrol capsule once daily concomitantly with the conventional hypoglycemic agents for three months, and the placebo (n=30) group. From each group 25 patients completed the study. The quality of life (QoL) of the patients was estimated utilizing RAND 36-item survey questionnaire. Fasting blood glucose levels were analyzed at the baseline and on the last day of the 3rd month. There was a significant decrement (p< 0.001) in the fasting serum glucose level of the patients supplemented with resveratrol at the end of the 3rd month, in comparison with the patient using the placebo. There was also a significant improvement in patient’s severity of pain (p<0.001) as shown in the bodily pain score of the RAND 36 scale and a remarkable (p < 0.05) improvement in physical functioning, physical health, social functioning, emotional well-being, energy/fatigue, and health change subscales of the questionnaire. The study concluded that resveratrol is the polyphenol that has a positive effect on reducing pain associated with diabetic neuropathy and improving the overall QoL of the patient.

Ever since the first coup by the military forces in 1962, Myanmar has stood out among the Southeast Asian nations due to the prolonged political turmoil between the ever-powerful junta and the rising forces of the people, assisted by the National League for Democracy (NLD) party who demanded democracy. These clashes have profoundly affected the country’s socio-economic and politics for decades. Hence, to find the root of this long-ongoing conflict, this paper examines the historical timeline of the friction between the two factions, the military junta (Tatmadaw), and the general population from the post-independent years until now. The study analyses various aspects, including the ethnic tension, the formation of Tatmadaw, the events leading to three military coups, and the people with their multiple uprisings. This paper also sheds light on the leading party, NLD, especially on the central figure, Aung San Suu Kyi, who became the voice of democracy. Overall, this study mainly used the library research method and a content-analysis approach to gather information and assess the dynamic relations between the two forces and how the power struggle remains well into the 21st century.

Towards reliability of load-bearing beams of bridges (Tomsk)
Authors: Kartopoltsev V. М. , Kartopoltsev A. V. , Alekseev A. A.
Published: January 2024

One of the criteria for assessing the reliability of load-bearing elements of bridges, are peak values of the temporary mobile load significantly exceeding the standard level of loading. Peak loads are interpreted as a continuous random process in the form of a random pulse sequence manifested after a random period of time and having a random duration.

Purpose: The aim of the paper is to show changes in temporary mobile load over time in the form of a simple Poissonian flow, where the bridge load is independent, and repeatability and duration of the random load are independent random variables.

Research findings: Three cases are considered to determine sufficiently low probability of destructive temporary mobile loads during the given normative service life of bridges. Based on the failure types, the average failure-free operation of the beam is determined as well as the operating time for a possible failure with a prolonged or specific excess load.
Geotechnical conditions of in-field road design in northern territories of Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (Tomsk)
Authors: Bychkov О. A. , Pushkareva G. V.
Published: January 2024

The Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District is the largest hydrocarbon resource base, supplying up to 300–330 billion m3/year of gas and up to 10–15 million t/year of liquid hydrocarbons. Mineral extraction is accompanied by the development of engineering infrastructure, namely: cluster pads, oil storage tanks, pumping stations and automobile roads that link both within and between sites. The area is unique in terms of complexity of geotechnical conditions due to permafrost soils in particular in the upper open-cast. The assessment of geotechnical conditions of the field development as well as adverse processes, hazards, risks and impacts on designed, constructed and operating roads to the cluster pads is undoubtedly relevant.

Purpose: The evaluation of geotechnical conditions of design, construction and operation of in-field roads in the Severo-Komsomolsk field.

Methodology/approach: The analysis and generalisation of materials of geotechnical surveys for design and construction documentation of the cluster pad 11 in the Severo-Komsomolsk oilfield, performed by AO "TomskNIPIneft". Determination of composition and physical properties of undisturbed soils taken when equipping observation posts, performed in the Laboratory of Ground Science and Soil Engineering, TSUAB.

Research findings: Natural and geotechnical conditions of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District includes areas with hard frozen soil and areas with complete or partial absence of permafrost soils. In the first case, the subgrade design envisages that the upper permafrost horizon is not lower than the embankment bottom and remains at this level during the entire period of the road operation. In the second case, the design implies preliminary thawing of frozen soil lenses and road drainage prior to the subgrade construction. In the first case, the position of perennially frozen soils is evaluated by the appropriate embankment height, when non-cemented road-building materials are used, and by arranging heat-insulating layers (peat, polystyrene foam, hard frozen soil) with their thermotechnical calculation. The first principle implies the subgrade construction only in winter. To prevent deformation of embankment slopes, it is recommended to build peat benches fixed with a geosynthetic material. Land reclamation in the road construction zone should be avoided to prevent erosion of the soil cover.

Nojevo meso je sve popularnija namirnica koja izaziva znatiželju zbog svojih različitih nutritivnih karakteristika. Kvaliteta mesa usko je povezana s farmskim uzgojem nojeva koji su u direktnoj vezi s prirodnim okruženjem u kojem nojevi inače borave. Ovo istraživanje se fokusira na omogućavanje lakšeg pristupa bitnim podacima o prirodnom okruženju nojeva i potrebama nojeva tijekom farmskog uzgoja, kako bi se zadovoljile potrebe dobrobiti ovih ptica, ali i kvaliteta nojevog mesa za potrošače. Meso noja se svrstava u kategoriju crvenog mesa, a njegova karakteristična crvena boja potiče od visokog sadržaja željeza. U usporedbi s drugim vrstama mesa, okus nojevog mesa se opisuje kao blag, što je rezultat visokog pH i niske količine masti u mišićima. Mekoća ovog mesa je posljedica niskog udjela masti i kolagena, što ga čini lako probavljivim. Osim navedenih karakteristika, nojevo meso ima iznimnu sposobnost zadržavanja vode, što ga čini poželjnim za razne vrste prerađevina. Nojevo meso obiluje niskomasnim proteinima, željezom, cinkom i višestruko nezasićenim masnim kiselinama, čineći ga vrijednim dodatkom uravnoteženoj prehrani. Nasuprot svega navedenog, postojeća visoka tržišna cijena ovog mesa, ugrožava razvoj farmi nojeva, kao i opstanak postojećih.

Published: January 2024

This paper presents an experimental study of corrosion-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) columns under eccentric compression. Three RC concrete column specimens, identical in geometry, reinforcing steel bars, andconcrete mix, were fabricated. One undamaged control specimen served as the control group, while the othertwo column specimens underwent corrosion due to chloride ion exposure. All specimens were subjected to aminor eccentric compressive load. The test results have revealed the behavior of RC columns damaged by steelcorrosion. Additionally, a comparison of the load-bearing capacity of corrosion-damaged RC columns wasconducted between calculation and experiment. The results indicate a close alignment between calculated andexperimental outcomes. Furthermore, the degree of decrease in the load-bearing capacity of corrosion-damaged RC columns over time was evaluated based on the axial load-moment interaction diagram. This evaluation considered the influence of the reduction in concrete strength and the cross-sectional area of the reinforcement.

Salinity intrusion poses significant challenges to coastal regions worldwide. Reliable salinity prediction models can provide valuable information to mitigate the impact and influence of salinity intrusion. However, their accuracy relies mainly on the selected input variables and used optimal models. This study employs the BayesianModel Averaging (BMA) algorithm to evaluate input variable importance and select the most reliable salinityprediction model. Based on an analysis of observed salinity data and climate data extracted from Landsat 8 OLI in the Google Earth Engine platform, the BMA algorithm identifies the significance of critical variables andoptimal salinity prediction models. Various statistical metrics, including R-squared, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) from the Random Forest method, were used to verify the performance of these optimal salinity prediction models. These obtained results offer foundational knowledge and valuable insights for future studies in determining appropriate input variables and selecting the best optimalsalinity prediction model.
