College students’ alcohol expectancies and sexual assault bystander behavior
Authors: Boyle Jennifer R
Published: July 2021

Many college sexual assault prevention efforts have focused on the bystander approach. Whilemost sexual assaults among students occur within the context of alcohol, no studies have examined theimpact of alcohol-related factors on bystander behavior. This exploratory study assessed relationshipsbetween students’ alcohol expectancies and the likelihood of intervening in a potential sexual assault.Students(n=220) completed an online survey. Linear regressions were performed. Among men, greateroverall expectancy scores(Stnd.ß=0.375,p=.008) and greater sociability scores(Stnd.ß=0.354,p=.012)were related to greater likelihood of action. Among women, greater self-perception scores were related toless likelihood of action(Stnd.ß=-0.215,p=.010). Explanations for differences between sexes are explored.

Published: July 2021

Background: People with disabilities (PWD) are at risk for poor health due, in part, to limitedaccess to health-related services including access to relevant health promotion and education informationand programming. Research indicates that inadequate knowledge, poor attitudes, and low self-efficacyamong health professionals limits their ability to effectively work with this population. Purpose: This studyassessed knowledge and attitudes about disabilities and identified factors that impact self-efficacy towardPWD among college students enrolled in health promotion and education courses at a large Midwesternuniversity. Methods: Data from a prior unpublished pilot survey study was utilized. The pilot assesseddisability-related knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, self-efficacy, and intentions among 146 college studentsenrolled in health education courses. Results: Multivariate analyses revealed that self-efficacy was influ-enced by attitudes but not by knowledge, sex, education level, major, or experience with disability. Morespecifically, students who had more positive attitudes toward PWD reported feeling significantly moreconfident in performing disability-related activities than students who had negative attitudes towardPWD. Discussion: Study findings and the recommendations provided should be considered when creatingcurricula and professional development opportunities to improve disability awareness and competenceamong health educators.

Published: July 2021

Stressors such as balancing school, work, and family life are common among college students.Asian and Asian American students may experience additional stressors including communication andlanguage, high expectations for academic excellence, and mental health concerns such as depression, alien-ation and discrimination. Therefore, Asian students may be susceptible to risky behaviors such as substanceabuse and suicide ideation. This investigation was conducted to assess stress among Asian and AsianAmerican students in relation to factors such as test anxiety, academic performance, financial difficul-ties, social support, family pressures, culture shock, and language barriers. The East Asian Student StressInventory (EASSI) instrument was administered to university students who identified themselves as Asianvia email at a mid-sized university in central California. Findings from a sample of 292 undergraduateand graduate students indicated that students experience stress from test anxiety, academic performance,financial difficulties, and social support.

Published: July 2021

This study examined religiosity and adolescent depression through a retrospective analysis viadata from the 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. A national sample of adolescents aged12-17 years (n = 17,399) served as the participants of this study. Demographic characteristics were deter-mined by conducting frequency distributions. Odds ratios were computed to determine whether past year(2012) MDE differed based on adolescent involvement in religiosity. Multivariable logistic regressionanalyses were computed to examine whether past year MDE differed based on adolescent involvement inreligiosity for males and for females. Findings indicated that 9.7% of adolescents had a Major DepressiveEpisode (MDE) within the past year. Males at highest risk were those who did not feel their religious be-liefs were an important part of their life or that it was important their friends share their religious beliefs.Females at highest risk were those who did not feel their religious beliefs influence their decisions or thatit was important that their friends share their religious beliefs. Such findings may indicate that certainaspects of religious involvement may provide protective effects against adolescent MDE.

Is Engagement in Physical Activity and Creative Activity Mutually Exclusive? An Evaluation of General and Domain- Specific Relationships
Authors: Frith Emily , Loprinzi Paul D.
Published: July 2021

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between physical activity and creative behaviors. A random sample of 612 college students, ages 18-35, enrolled at a large Southeastern university, were recruited via an anonymous email invitation. Creative behaviors were assessed via two self-report questionnaires, includingthe Kaufman Domains of Creativity Scale (K-DOCS) and the Biographical Inventory of Creative Behaviors (BICB). Self-reported physical activity habits were assessed with the Physical Activity Vital Sign (PAVS) questionnaire. One-week test–retest reliability was established on 10% of the participants.Of the multiple regression analyses that were conducted to examine the hypothesized relation-ship, between physical activity and creative activities, physical activity participation did not meaningfully influence domain-general or domain-specific creative activities. Additional selected independent variables, such as degree of exercise enjoyment and academic major were statistically significantly associated with self-reported creative activities. This study serves to identify more inclusive, yet parsimonious research hypotheses to further scientific knowledge in this under-investigated area.
Health Inequities: A Look at the Political Determinants of Health During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Dawes Daniel
Published: July 2021

Since January 2020, the U.S. has had over 150,000 deaths attributed to the Coronavirus, and morbidity and mortality rates continue to rise. In the United States, minorities are more likely to die from COVID-19 than other populations - a fact that further solidifies the disparate nature of race and ethnicity relative to one’s health and the inequities in care. COVID-19 has not struck all equally because our economic and social policies have not benefited all equally. This paper introduces a new model, the political determinants of health, which focuses on their role in creating, perpetuating, and exacerbating health inequities.

Are textbooks enough? Alternative ways of teaching English to adult and adolescent groups of English learners
Authors: GOSİEWSKA Boguslawa
Published: July 2021

Adults as well as adolescents create exceptional groups of English language learners with their specific expectations. At present text books are the main source used to teach English. Although it is undisputable that they provide a syllabus, and a range of language activities, taking into account communicative purpose of a language, it is advisable to enrich English language lesson in supplementary materials. These materials should include neurobiological aspects in foreign language learning, the way foreign language is acquired, and personality factors such as multiple intelligences and affective factors. Hence, the author of the present article discusses the reasons why teaching English with the application of textbooks only is not enough, and subsequently suggests additional activities in the form of teaching through culture, stories, poems, songs, and games.

Authors: SALAH Mohamed
Published: July 2021

There were many attempts in the past decades to facilitate Arabic Grammar as it has many difficulties. These attempts were not all of a sudden or on second thought, but it has an ancient history. One of these historical attempts is Zahiri Approach, Zahiri Approach is a jurisprudential and grammatical school. Considering all of these attempts, it was noticed that these attempts are based on inherited legacies. By searching in theses inherited legacies, we reach to these attempts removing all the obstacles and suspicions. This research aims to introduce Zahiri School of jurisprudence and grammar to explain the differences between facilitation, renewal, reform, and revitalization of Arabic grammar, clarify scientific principles adopted by the scholars as a basis for their facilitations, innovations, and reforms, and explain impact of Zahiri Approach on some recent attempts to facilitate Arabic Grammar. The research used both historical and comparative approaches to reach these goals, consider the attempts of Zahiri Approach (jurisprudential and grammatical school) and reach assets of these attempts. Most important results of the Research; the point that was considered by preachers of facilitation as the greatest fault in Arabic Grammar, which they unanimously fought it, is demolishing this foundation resulting the demolition of most important rule of Arabic Grammar. All of preachers of facilitation building their opinions and theories on this basis (factors theory) as they specify reason or cancelling the factor. This reason is also a factor; they cancel factor by another factor.

Transit Frequency Optimization Using Firefly Algorithm and Evaluation of the Parameters
Authors: AKSOY İlyas Cihan , MUTLU Mehmet Metin , ALVER Yalçın
Published: July 2021

ABSTRACT: Over the last few decades, rapidly growing cities in terms of population and land use have led to many transportation-based problems such as longer travel times, traffic congestion, traffic crashes, and air and noise pollution. Increasing the modal share of transit systems appears to be one of the most effective methods to solve transportation-based problems. However, transit systems, particularly in countries having limited resources, should be used efficiently to achieve sustainable urban mobility. Even only adjusting frequencies of transit lines, with no infrastructure investment cost requirements, can provide a more efficient transit system. In this paper, a transit frequency setting model based on the Firefly Algorithm (FA), which is a relatively new metaheuristic, for the transportation network design problems is presented to minimize total user cost under a fleet size constraint. The proposed model is performed on a 10-route Mandl’s Test Network using different combinations of parameters to demonstrate the effect of parameter values on the solution quality. After that, the best solution of 30 solutions obtained by the calibrated parameter values is compared to the existing frequency set of the 10-route transit network. The results show that the FA can obtain better frequency sets by selecting the proper values for the parameters.

El dibujo como herramienta para pensar una nueva forma de la fortificación durante el Renacimiento italiano: el ejemplo de dos proyectos de Leonardo da Vinci
Authors: Diez Oronoz Aritz
Published: July 2021

La irrupción de la artillería marcó el comienzo de un acelerado proceso de refundación de la arquitectura militar durante el Renacimiento. Esta necesidad trascendía el plano funcional al que se vincula tradicionalmente la fortificación, poniendo en riesgo las connotaciones simbólicas y representativas que hasta ese momento representaban las murallas medievales en el imaginario colectivo. El dibujo, como medio por el que comprender la nueva realidad impuesta por la artillería y herramienta con la que guiar las reflexiones de los arquitectos participes de este desafío, tomó un papel activo en la refundación de lo que hoy en día conocemos como la fortificación bastionada, definiendo las bases de una nueva lógica geométrica y formal de la que trata este artículo. Dos proyectos de Leonardo da Vinci reconstruidos por el autor, sirven de base para estudiar la base geométrica y formal que fundó esta nueva idea de la fortificación.

Authors: Nguyen Thi Kim Cuc , Nguyen Van Vinh , Cao Xuan Binh
Published: July 2021

3D shape measurement by structured light is a high-speed method and capable of profiling complex surfaces. In particular, the processing of measuring data also greatly affects the accuracy of obtained point clouds. In this paper, an algorithm to detect multiple planes on point cloud data was developed based on RANSAC algorithm to evaluate the accuracy of point cloud measured by structural light. To evaluate the accuracy of the point cloud obtained, two-step height parts are used. The planes are detected and the distance between them needs to be measured with high accuracy. Therefore, the distance measurement data between the planes found in the point cloud is compared with the data measured by CMM measurement. The experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm can identify multiple planes at the same time with a maximum standard deviation of 0.068 (mm) and the maximum relative error is 1.46%.

Authors: Le Anh Dung , Tran Thi Thanh Hai
Published: July 2021

This study analyses the hydrodynamic characteristic of the tilting pad thrust bearing. Research content is simultaneously solving the Reynolds equation, force equilibrium equation, and momentum equilibrium equations. Reynolds equation is solved by utilizing the finite element method with Galerkin weighted residual, thereby determines the pressure at each discrete node of the film. Force and momentums are integrated from
pressure nodes by Gaussian integral. Finally, force and momentum equilibrium equations are solved using Newton-Raphson iterative to achieve film thickness and inclination angles of the pad at the equilibrium position. The results yielded the film thickness, the pressure distribution on the whole pad and different sections of the bearing respected to the radial direction. The high-pressure zone is located at the low film thickness zone and near the pivot location.
A New Landmark Detection Approach for Slam Algorithm Applied in Mobile Robot
Authors: Nguyen Xuan-Ha , Nguyen Van-Huy , Ngo Thanh-Tung
Published: July 2021

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping is a key technique for mobile robot applications and has received much research effort over the last three decades. A precondition for a robust and life-long landmark-based SLAM algorithm is the stable and reliable landmark detector. However, traditional methods are based on laserbased data which are believed very unstable, especially in dynamic-changing environments. In this work, we introduce a new landmark detection approach using vision-based data. Based on this approach, we exploit a deep neural network for processing images from a stereo camera system installed on mobile robots. Two deep neural network models named YOLOv3 and PSMNet were re-trained and used to perform the landmark detection and landmark localization, respectively. The landmark’s information is associated with the landmark data through tracking and filtering algorithm. The obtained results show that our method can detect and
localize landmarks with high stability and accuracy, which are validated by laser-based measurement data. This approach has opened a new research direction toward a robust and life-long SLAM algorithm.

Authors: Le Quang , Phan Anh Tuan , Pham Thi Thanh Huong
Published: July 2021

A useful tool for understanding the performance of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is a dynamic simulation of the motions of the vehicle. To perform the simulation, the hydrodynamic coefficients of the vehicle must be first provided. These coefficients are specific to the vehicle and provide the description of hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on the vehicle in an underwater environment. This paper provides a method for the calculation and evaluation of the hydrodynamic coefficients of an AUV.

Economic consciousness is characterized as a system component of con-sciousness in connection with the special place that business activity occupies in the social life of modern man. The formation of economic consciousness begins with self-awareness as a subject of economic relations, that is, with the formation of economic consciousness, the possibility of acti-vating entrepreneurial activity. Economic consciousness is the basis for the formation of such a class as creative entrepreneurs. Creative entrepreneurship is fundamentally different from the usual labor standards, it requires great skills, the ability to constantly learn.

The petrochemical market is a necessary element of resource supply for all sectors of the economy. The petrochemical market is a necessary element of resource supply for all sectors of the economy. In its development, petrochemicals are ahead of related industries, such as oil production and refining. Even today, the volume of sales in monetary terms significantly exceeds the volume of sales of oil or petroleum products. In the future, the global petrochemical market will continue to grow faster than the oil and petroleum products market. The annual growth of the production rate of multi-tonnage plastics is expected to reach 5% by 2023, and the production of polyester fibers-6%. At the same time, the growth rate of oil demand, according to the Energy Information Agency (USA), will be 1.7% per year, including in developed countries – about 1% per year. The petrochemical industry is characterized by rapid development of scientific and technological progress, increasing the efficiency of public production.

Material Flow Rate Estimation in Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing
Authors: Greeff G.P.
Published: July 2021

The additive manufacturing of products promises exciting possibilities. Measurement methodologies, which measure an in-process dataset of these products and interpret the results, are essential. However, before developing such a level of quality assurance several in-process measurands must be realized. One of these is the material flow rate, or rate of adding material during the additive manufacturing process. Yet, measuring this rate directly in material extrusion additive manufacturing presents challenges. This work presents two indirect methods to estimate the volumetric flow rate at the liquefier exit in material extrusion, specifically in Fused Deposition Modeling or Fused Filament Fabrication. The methods are cost effective and may be applied in future sensor integration. The first method is an optical filament feed rate and width measurement and the second is based on the liquefier pressure. Both are used to indirectly estimate the volumetric flow rate. The work also includes a description of linking the G-code command to the final print result, which may be used to create a per extrusion command model of the part.

Published: July 2021

This paper presents a t wo-dimensional 10 x 10 LED array system developed in-house at t he Standards and Calibration Laboratory (SCL) for the calibration of timing parameters of still image cameras and video cameras. In this paper, the circuit design and the calibration methods for cameras of different shutter types (rolling shutter or global shutter) are presented. This LED array may also be used to verify the shutter type of cameras. The frequency of the clock signal applied in the calibration is traceable to the SI through the cesium beam frequency standard maintained at SCL.
A global database of marine isotope substage 5a and 5c marine terraces and paleoshoreline indicators
Authors: Thompson Schmitty B. , Creveling Jessica R.
Published: July 2021

Abstract. In this review we compile and document the elevation, indicative meaning, and chronology of marine isotope substage 5a and 5c sea level indicators
for 39 sites within three geographic regions: the North American Pacific coast, the North American Atlantic coast and the Caribbean, and the
remaining globe. These relative sea level indicators, comprised of geomorphic indicators such as marine and coral reef terraces, eolianites, and
sedimentary marine- and terrestrial-limiting facies, facilitate future investigation into marine isotope substage 5a and 5c interstadial paleo-sea
level reconstruction, glacial isostatic adjustment, and Quaternary tectonic deformation. The open-access database, presented in the format of the
World Atlas of Last Interglacial Shorelines (WALIS) database, can be found at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5021306 (Thompson and Creveling, 2021).

Abstract. Simulation software in geophysics is traditionally written in Fortran or C++ due to the stringent performance requirements these codes have to satisfy. As a result, researchers who use high-productivity languages for exploratory work often find these codes hard to understand, hard to modify, and hard to integrate with their analysis tools. fv3gfs-wrapper is an open-source Python-wrapped version of the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) FV3GFS (Finite-Volume Cubed-Sphere Global Forecast System) global atmospheric model, which is coded in Fortran. The wrapper provides simple interfaces to progress the Fortran main loop and get or set variables used by the Fortran model. These interfaces enable a wide range of use cases such as modifying the behavior of the model, introducing online analysis code, or saving model variables and reading forcings directly to and from cloud storage. Model performance is identical to the fully compiled Fortran model, unless routines to copy the state in and out of the model are used. This copy overhead is well within an acceptable range of performance and could be avoided with modifications to the Fortran source code. The wrapping approach is outlined and can be applied similarly in other Fortran models to enable more productive scientific workflows.
