Estrategias de ingeniería social a partir del análisis de datos residuales en la ciudad de Tunja
Authors: Cusaria Barón Cristian Fabián , Fagua Fagua Andrea Liliana Liliana
Published: June 2022

La Ingeniería Social está enfocada al engaño y persuasión que pueda llevarse a través de la tecnología o psicología, con el fin de obtener información privilegiada; esta también es utilizada mediante contactos indirectos con la víctima. El Dumpster Diving o Trashing es uno de estos tipos de ataques de Ingeniería Social en el que se obtiene información privada (correos electrónicos, contraseñas, números de teléfono, números de cuentas bancarias, números de cedula, etcétera) por medio de acercamientos indirectos con la víctima (revisando su basura). El problema planteado en la presente investigación radica en la falta de conocimiento y control preventivo/correctivo sobre el manejo de los datos residuales (información) expuestos en la basura generada por las distintas empresas, organizaciones y entidades de la ciudad de Tunja, ya que esto puede propiciar un ataque informático basado en información sensible o privada, obtenida mediante “Trashing”. Teniendo en cuenta que lo señalado como ‘basura’ contiene información correcta o falsa, en esta investigación deseamos analizar y demostrar que esta técnica (“Trashing”) es un resultante de transmisión de información importante para cualquier entidad; en efecto, las empresas no son sensatas del riesgo que parten ante este tipo de descuidos. Por ello, la necesidad de diagnosticar medidas de seguridad, capacitación y formación de los empleados en este sentido, así como la creación de protocolos de eliminación de datos, ya sea desde el ámbito de las nuevas tecnologías, o desde los métodos convencionales (destructoras de papel o contratar servicios externos), así como incluir estas opciones delictivas en las auditorías internas.
Factores para el ajuste de los módulos de retrocálculo de pavimentos flexibles
Authors: Guzmán Suárez Edwin Antonio
Published: June 2022

El Deflectómetro de Impacto (FWD) es ampliamente utilizado en la evaluación no destructiva in situ de los módulos de las capas de pavimentos flexibles. Para estimar el módulo de las capas asfálticas, es necesario ajustar las deflexiones o el módulo retrocalculado a la temperatura de referencia. Así mismo, los módulos retrocalculados de las demás capas que conforman la estructura, se deben ajustar con el fin de hacerlos equiparables con los obtenidos en pruebas de laboratorio. Este artículo tiene como objetivo hacer una revisión acerca de los factores existentes para ajustar los módulos obtenidos por retrocálculo, al utilizar la información del cuenco de deflexiones obtenido con FWD, y hacerlos consistentes para su aplicación en pavimentos. Se concluye que existen bastantes investigaciones tendientes a determinar estos factores de corrección, por lo cual es de suma importancia el criterio ingenieril al momento de seleccionar el factor adecuado a aplicar, haciendo posible estimar con buen grado de confiabilidad las condiciones en servicio de las capas de pavimento.
Nuevas tecnologías aplicadas a la difusión y gestión del patrimonio cultural
Authors: Giménez de Ory Elena , López Gil Elena
Published: June 2022

Cuando se piensa en nuevas tecnologías para el desarrollo, normalmente se suele pensar en cuestiones como smart cities, tecnologías móviles, Internet de las cosas, etc. Sin embargo, aplicar las nuevas tecnologías en campos como la gestión del patrimonio cultural, que en principio parece muy alejado de las facultades de ingeniería, es una vía para impulsar no solo el desarrollo cultural y económico de una región, sino que ofrece una vía distinta de empleabilidad a titulados de formación técnica. Las ventajas de aplicar estas nuevas tecnologías en el ámbito cultural son varias: permite dar visibilidad a instituciones o eventos con un gasto muchísimo menor que de forma tradicional, favorece y hace posible la accesibilidad a personas con algún tipo de discapacidad, proporciona técnicas eficaces y seguras para la conservación y difusión del patrimonio, etc. En este artículo vamos a exponer todas estas cuestiones en detalle, dándole un enfoque completamente aplicado: por qué hay necesidad de llevar la tecnología a la gestión cultural, cuáles son algunas de las tecnologías en concreto que se están utilizando, ejemplos de casos de éxito, proyectos concedidos, etc., para que el alumno sea capaz de plantear soluciones concretas en su entorno.
The Impact of Urban Management on Crowd Movement and User Experience through the Pilgrimage of Hajj (Frequent Temporary Mega-Events)
Authors: Kadi Abdulrahman , Selim Gehan
Published: June 2022

The research looks at the impact of urban management on crowd movement and user experience during the Islamic pilgrimage of Hajj. This study investigates and develops an urban management framework for crowd movement and user experience at frequent temporary mega-events. The thesis uses a mixed-methods approach to address a complex urban context during the annual pilgrimage in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. Hajj is a unique event that hosts millions of pilgrims; nevertheless, it has many constraints and rituals. The current management system of Hajj suffers from a significant overlap of stakeholders' roles and responsibilities and the absence of user-centricity during the planning and operation of the crowd movement. Thus, Hajj needs a new governance system to establish a framework that addresses the users' needs and expectations. This investigation aims to identify the main touchpoints of the crowd movement toward Al-Masjid Al-Haram from the Jamarat Bridge in Mina to address the following aspects: event management, crowd movement, and user experience.

Transfer of Development Rights for Agricultural Land Protection in Izmir's Periphery: A Case Study in Torbalı
Authors: Akbudak Hacer , Akpınar Figen
Published: June 2022

Turkey has been experiencing rapid urbanization and urban expansion since the 1950s. With the processes of decentralization, the city is increasingly being brought into rural areas, building pressure is increasing, agricultural production and natural resources are being destroyed, and rural areas are increasingly fitted with urban uses (shopping, tourism, leisure activities, etc.). Rural areas in close proximity to urban areas are more vulnerable to development pressures and are at risk of being abolished or abandoned. On the other hand, with the enactment of the new regulations Transfer of Development Rights entered Turkish Planning System as a new and innovative solution. However, there have been any available application of the TDR yet. The study's objective is to assess the TDR's effectiveness as a tool for protecting agricultural land on the periphery of Izmir's large metropolitan area. Izmir's Torbalı district was chosen as a case study regarding intensive agricultural activity. A bundle of techniques is used including a large survey analysis of the area. A hypothetical mathematical model was applied for assessing and transferring the market-based value for the agricultural land.
Reinventing the Relationship Between Architecture, Biology and Human Experience
Authors: Madhury Murchana
Published: June 2022

The oblivious implementation of ‘biology’ or ‘study of life’ into architectural design has been shaping human experiences for centuries. The human body consciously or subconsciously accepts the constructed surroundings to design emotions, senses, behavior, and logical order of its own. Likewise, the identity of a group of individuals occupied by a built structure to a certain extent reflects the spatial experience outlined by the structure. The current gap in biological understanding in design often assists in resulting imbalance between the human body and the surrounding environment. With this in mind, the first phase involves an exploration of existing biological theories regarding user spatial experience. The second phase studies a complex range of human movements, sensory stimuli, and emotional and behavioral responses recommending probable approaches for assuring structural soundness, aesthetic pleasure, and functional accuracy of an architectural setting. This research finally opens an opportunity to re-evaluate design solutions based on the potential applications of bio-scientific research for future design development.

Authors: Abdelrahman Osman Rania
Published: June 2022

At a time when the world is passing through a climate change crisis, the mosque reveals how sustainable developments can help in mitigating global warming. This paper presents a case study of a suggested renovation project for a mosque in Sudan. The aim is to present numerical predictions of energy consumption before and after renovation. Comprehensive field measurements were carried out to be used as input data in the building energy simulation tool. The mosque suggested renovation project has resulted in a 23% reduction in energy demand and 38% of the total energy consumption covered by solar energy generation. The results also show that the choice of renovation measures, such as level of insulation, U value used for openings, and efficiency of the cooling system need careful consideration. Choice of lighting system also has a major effect.
Gamification and Storytelling for Architectural History and Cultural Heritage Awareness
Authors: Özgüleş Muzaffer
Published: June 2022

Many people, fail to connect with the multi-layered city they live in and with its past. When the reflections of the culture, cannot be distinguished on various buildings, the architectural heritage of the cities can be overlooked and might be consciously or unconsciously destroyed. Unfortunately, present architectural history or cultural heritage conservation courses do not help to adequately establish a healthy relationship between residents and the city or the cultural site that needs to be protected. In order to fill this critical gap, we have recently proposed an EU project and this paper presents the objectives, partners, methodology and prospective implementations of the project, namely “Palimpsest Cities”, which aims to create an alternative, innovative, interdisciplinary curriculum of a new course supported with gamification and storytelling techniques. The project aims to test this approach through various implementations in partner universities and collaborations with local governments and professional organizations. It aims to deliver the content of this innovative course to whole residents of the city, with a special emphasis on social inclusion of disadvantaged groups. Likewise, this paper will be an important opportunity to disseminate the project before its kick-off and contribute to essential network our project is seeking for.

Authors: Adji Arga Setyo , Atika Nabila , Kusbijantoro Yemima Billyana , Billah Atiyatum , Putri Astrid , Handajani Fitri
Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: Bacterial gastroenteritis is a disease in the tropics in the form of inflammation of the stomach and intestines due to several bacteria, such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella, Escherichia coli, Vibrio, Yersinia, and Listeria with symptoms of diarrhea without or with vomiting and frequent fever. Gastroenteritis is a global disease with the highest prevalence in the agricultural community, especially farmers and fishermen.

AIM: This research is to determine the potential of leaf and seed extract Moringa oleifera as an alternative therapy for bacterial gastroenteritis.

METHODS: A literature review approach derived from the analysis and synthesis of various related references is used. The author selects journals full text and books published in the last ten years maximum through several databases, namely PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane with the keywords: diarrhea, gastroenteritis, antibacterial, antiulcer, anti-inflammation, and M. oleifera.

RESULTS: Seed and leaf extract M. oleifera played a role in preventing some of the effects of the pathogenesis of diarrhea due to bacterial infection. Methanol, N-hexane, ethyl acetate, flavonoids, phenols, saponins, alkaloids, tannins, and steroids from seed and leaf extract M. oleifera have antibacterial effects. The content of quercetin has an anti-inflammatory effect. The content of tannins, flavonoids, and alkaloids has antidiarrheal activity. The content of ethanol and tannins has an antiulcer effect. This potential can help cure patients with bacterial gastroenteritis.

CONCLUSION: Leaf and seed extract of M. oleifera has good antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiulcer, and antidiarrheal potential for the treatment of bacterial gastroenteritis.

Published: June 2022

BACKGROUND: The bark of pulai (Alstonia scholaris [L] R.Br.) by the Gorontalo community is used for powder preparation (as a wedding ceremony custom), containing flavonoid compounds that function as sunscreens. Thus, the bark of pulai can be made in pharmaceutical preparations in the form of lotion dosage forms.

AIM: This study aims to determine the SPF value of the lotion preparation of pulai bark extract. There are four formulas, formula F0 (lotion base), formula F1 (0.5%), formula F2 (1%), formula F3 (2%).

METHODOLOGY: Physical evaluation of lotion preparations was carried out with organoleptic test parameters, spreadability, homogeneity, stability, pH. The SPF value of the lotion preparation was tested using the ultraviolet-Vis Spectrophotometry method with a wavelength of 290–400.

RESULTS: The results of the physical evaluation of the organoleptic test and the homogeneity test were obtained that the lotion had a clear white color (F0), light yellow (F1), yellow (F2), dark yellow (F3), a characteristic smell of olive oil, and the four formulas had a thick and homogeneous consistency. The dispersion power of F0, F1, and F2 does not meet the requirements of the dispersion test value except F3. The three lotion formulations F1, F2, and F3 showed physical instability, except for F0 (lotion base). The pH of the lotions of the four formulas was in the range that was in accordance with the standard of topical preparations.

CONCLUSION: The determination of the SPF value in the formulas F1, F2, and F3, respectively, was 3.3427 (minimum protection), 4.7752 (medium protection), and 5.0968 (medium protection).
Synergistic effect of obeticholic acid and fasting-mimicking on proliferative, migration, and survival signaling in prostate cancer
Authors: Al-khfajy Wrood S. , Arif Inam Sameh , Al-sudani Basma T.
Published: June 2022

The systemic and resistant nature of the androgen-independent stage of prostate cancers makes it largely incurable even after intensive multimodal therapy. Apoptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) are two fundamental events that are deeply linked to carcinogenesis. Hence, it is necessary to find a new combination of several therapies targeting apoptosis and EMT without causing side effects. Several recent studies have indicated that the Farnesoid X receptor is extensively associated with human tumorigenesis. The FXR agonist obeticholic acid (INT 747) has preliminarily exhibited a tumor suppressor potential. In this present study, we assess the potential synergism of FXR activation under nutrient deprivation in prostate cancer cell lines to investigate whether FXR activation enhances starvation-induced apoptosis in PC3 cells. In this study, PC-3 treatment with INT 747 significantly repressed cell proliferation and clonogenic potential. In addition, it significantly induced apoptosis of PC-3 cells and decreased their cancerogenic potential, as evaluated by annexin v apoptosis and transwell migration assay, respectively. The decreased expression of pro-caspase 3 by western blot analysis further confirmed INT 747-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, the fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) potentiated the antiproliferative, pro-apoptotic, and antimetastatic effects of INT 747. Mechanistically, these effects were mediated through the downregulation of cyclin D1 and upregulation of PTEN. In conclusion, INT 747 alone markedly decreases, and when combined with FMD abrogates the growth and migration of PC-3 cells.
Therapeutic effect of multiple functional minicircle vector encoding anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 in allograft rejection model
Authors: Lim Sun Woo , Shin Yoo Jin , Cui Sheng , Ko Eun Jeong , Yoo Seok Ho , Chung Byung Ha , Yang Chul Woo
Published: June 2022

Background/Aims: We previously proposed minicircle vector technology as the potential platform for the development and production of new biologics. In this study, we have designed a novel target molecule for the treatment of allograft rejection and evaluated its feasibility as the therapeutic agent in this disease using the minicircle vector system.Methods: We engineered vectors to carry cassette sequences for anti-CD25, interleukin-10 (IL-10), and C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3) fusion protein, and then isolated minicircle vectors from the parent vectors. We verified the substantial production of anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 fusion protein from minicircles and their duration in HEK293T cells and mice models. We also evaluated whether minicircle-derived anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 has therapeutic effects in a skin allograft in mice model.Results: We confirmed the production of anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 from minicircle by its significant availability in cells transfected with the minicircle and in its conditioned media. After a single injection of minicircle by hydrodynamic injection via mouse tail vein, luminescence or red fluorescence was maintained until 40 days in the liver tissue, suggesting the production of anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 protein from minicircles via protein synthesis machinery in the liver. Mice treated with the minicircle encoding anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 showed prolonged skin allograft survival times accompanied by improved immunologic regulation e.g., reduction of the lymphocyte population of Th1, Th2, and Th17 and an induction of regulatory T cells.Conclusions: These findings implied that self-generated anti-CD25/IL-10/CXCR3 protein drug by minicircle technology is functionally active and relevant for reducing allograft rejection. The minicircle vector system may be useful for developing new biological drugs, avoiding manufacturing or practical problems.

L’invention méthodologique : le cas de l’interprétation sociologique des rêves
Authors: Lahire Bernard
Published: June 2022

Mettre en œuvre les moyens méthodologiques usuels des sciences sociales à propos d’un objet aussi singulier que le rêve, ce serait inverser l’ordre des priorités, qui commande de partir d’un cadre théorique pour aller vers une méthodologie, et détruire à peu près totalement la spécificité de son objet. C’est de l’expérience d’une invention méthodologique répondant aux nécessités d’une théorie générale de l’expression onirique dont il va être question ici. L’article vise à préciser les conditions dans lesquelles les rêves sont recueillis, la nature des multiples entretiens réalisés auprès des rêveurs et rêveuses, le type de relation qui s’instaure entre l’enquêteur et l’enquêté, et le travail d’interprétation sociologique des rêves au croisement de deux types d’ignorance et de connaissance (chez l’enquêteur et chez l’enquêté).
Aller vers le terrain : approche écologique de la dynamique scientifique

La modélisation des conduites humaines : une stratégie pour investir les terrains
Authors: Éloi Serge
Published: June 2022

Expliquer le comportement d’humains qui interagissent nécessite d’aller à la rencontre de nos semblables et d’interférer avec eux pour comprendre ce qui les pousse à faire ce qu’ils font, comment ils le font et pourquoi ils le font. Le contexte de l’intervention éducative dans le champ des pratiques sportives dont il est plus particulièrement question ici permet de saisir l’enjeu d’une nécessaire clarification. distinguer le terrain de sport et le terrain de recherche conduit à envisager une troisième sorte de terrain, celui du modèle permettant la manipulation virtuelle et l’anticipation des conduites. L’exemple du module service/réception en volley-ball montre qu’il est possible d’influer sur la sortie du modèle en jouant sur les variables que l’on peut contrôler à l’entrée du modèle. on est en mesure de déduire que c’est ce qui a été « injecté » dans le système qui permet d’obtenir la variation des résultats obtenus. C’est là une voie prometteuse pour mettre un peu d’ordre dans ce qui, de prime abord, semble être le chaos.

Dans cet article, je reviens sur notre collaboration. J’y soutiens que sa parole invite à être traitée autrement que comme une narration informant sur son expérience migratoire. Elle est également une parole performative qui agit sur les représentations, notamment de la catégorie « migrant·e·s ».
Cinabre : aux limites des analogies de l’expérience
Authors: Falque Emmanuel
Published: June 2022

Cinabre – tel est le nom chez Kant du vermillon (couleur du Cinabre) devenu « tantôt rouge, tantôt noir », « tantôt léger, tantôt lourd » mais qui renvoie aussi à la paradoxale hypothèse d’« un homme qui se transformerait tantôt en un animal, tantôt en un autre », ou d’une terre « recouverte tantôt de fruits, tantôt de glace et de neige ». Tout alors s’écroulerait, jusqu’à rompre toute synthèse, « mon imagination empirique ne [pouvant] jamais trouver l’occasion de recevoir dans la pensée le lourd cinabre avec la représentation de la couleur rouge ». Ce qui n’est qu’un simple hapax dans la première édition de la Critique de la raison pure de Kant (1781) devient alors ici la règle. S’il est impossible de relier « analogie et expérience », selon les termes mêmes du philosophe de Königsberg, ce serait alors du pur Chaos – autre nom du Hors phénomène. Atteindre les limites de la pensée, voire l’Impensable comme tel, est une tentative certes démesurée. C’est pourtant à ce prix qu’on établira, comme par contrecoup, l’importance de l’analogie, y compris pour aujourd’hui.

We show by constructing explicit homotopy operators that the Hochschild (co)homology of an $ A_{\infty} $-algebra of Stasheff admits a differential calculus structure. As an application, we reproduce a result of Tradler which says that the Hochschild cohomology of a cyclic $ A_\infty $-algebra admits a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra structure.
Teaching and learning landscape in primary education in Spain: A necessary curricular review to educate citizens
Authors: Armas-Quintá Francisco Xosé , Rodríguez-Lestegás Francisco , Macía-Arce Xosé Carlos , Pérez-Guilarte Yamilé
Published: June 2022

The study of landscape is not new, nor is society’s concern for the environment. It occupies a central place in teaching geography and offers many opportunities for the integration of one’s own contents of geographic education. Landscape must be presented as a portion of space on the Earth's surface where natural elements and the actions of human beings interact, a complex reality where nature and culture mix. Knowing a landscape means more than knowing a portion of the territory, it also implies understanding the social groups and peoples that inhabit it. In this regard, and in addition to the study of exceptional, singular, or exotic landscapes, it is necessary to value the importance of ordinary landscapes close to schoolchildren. In this article, a curricular review of primary education in Galicia (Spain) is carried out with the aim of knowing how the study of landscape is approached, also taking into account the guidelines set out in the basic curricula at the national level.
Women’s Contributions to Biomedical Healthcare in Ghana: A Focus on Obuasi
Authors: Adu-Gyamfi Samuel , Dompreh Darkwa Benjamin , Adwoa Agyeiwaa Boateng Regina , Tomdi Lucky
Published: June 2022

From economic, through politics to domestic support, women have been the major engineers of valuable roles towards the development of every culture. Historically, their impacts in medicine and healthcare in general have been evident across time and space. Prior to European influx and the modernization of healthcare in Ghana, women delivered such roles that simulate that of modern midwives, nurses, herbalists and priestesses. Although, denied access to formal education in the colonial days, because of cultural reasons, women have risen to occupy central stages in biomedical services. Regardless of their numerical strength and contributions towards the provision of healthcare, they have been neglected and marginalized both within the society and by scholars. Significantly, the place of Obuasi, in particular, within the literature on women’s contribution to healthcare delivery has received little attention. Dwelling on a qualitative research approach grounded in both primary and secondary data, the current study attempted a prime discourse on the contribution of women in the biomedical spheres using the Obuasi community as a case study. The current study has revealed that women as nurses and midwives work toward reducing child mortality and improvement of maternal health. Also, we have analyzed the challenges women face within the biomedical sphere as nurses and midwives.
Aesthetics, economy and printing in the eighteenth century: the catalogue of Giambattista Bodoni and his patron José Nicolás de Azara
Authors: López-Souto Noelia
Published: June 2022

This article addresses and documents the influence of the economic variable on the production of one of the most outstanding typographers in the history of the book, Giambattista Bodoni, who was famous for his books to the 18th century European bibliophile elite. Three main financing channels are distinguished in his catalog, resulting various types of editions, and this perspective of analysis shows the relevance of the Spanish patron José Nicolás de Azara in Bodoni’s work. But Azara did not only leave his mark on Bodoni’s catalog by promoting bibliographic projects; also by advising the typographer to achieve examples of the beautiful book, which should balance in his opinion its functionality with its aesthetic waste, that was always directly proportional to the economic cost. As a conclusion, the article confirms the prominence of patronage -especially Azara’s- even in Bodoni’s art of printing along the transition from the Eighteenth to the Nineteenth century.

With the rapid development of modern communication technology, more “Internet+” behaviors have been adopted in the field of education. Realizing the teaching objectives via the Internet mode can meet the personalized learning needs of more learners across time and space. In a SPOC class, teachers can encourage learners to actively participate in the E-learning process by adopting various task-driven teaching methods. The BOPPPS teaching mode can provide a complete teaching framework for teachers, achieve good teaching results, and improve the E-learning satisfaction of learners. A regression analysis was performed to explore how six aspects of the BOPPPS teaching mode in SPOC classrooms affected E-learning satisfaction. Results show that the overall Cronbach’s α of the questionnaire was 0.887, the KMO value was 0.869, and the corresponding p-value was 0.000, indicating good reliability and validity. Five aspects of the BOPPPS teaching mode (bridge-in, object, pre-assessment, participatory learning, and post-assessment, summary) have a significant influence on E-learning satisfaction. The acceptance time of the BOPPPS teaching mode had different effects on E-learning satisfaction (p<0.05). Results of this study have a positive reference value for improving the application mode of SPOC teaching design at different teaching levels, expanding the application of the BOPPPS teaching mode in E-learning, and promoting the use of BOPPPS teaching mode in the higher education.

A thorough understanding of the current Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E) practice education mode in colleges and universities and the college students’ entrepreneurial intention is crucial to enabling the entrepreneurship of college students to play a more important role in the development of social economy. However, existing studies generally neglect the influence of college students’ entrepreneurial intention on the teaching quality of I&E practice, so to fill in this research blank, this paper aims to study the relationship between college students’ entrepreneurial intention and the teaching quality of I&E practice. In the beginning, this paper built a research model for the relationship between college students’ entrepreneurial intention and the teaching mode of I&E practice in colleges and universities and an analysis model for the college students’ entrepreneurial intention. Then, this paper adopted the Intuitionistic Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (IF-AHP) to further analyze college students’ entrepreneurial intention, and the correlation between college students’ entrepreneurial intention and the teaching mode of I&E practice in colleges and universities was analyzed in detail. After that, in the experiment, this paper focused on 7 core factors in 5 dimensions, and performed cross analysis on these extracted factors and college students’ entrepreneurial intention. At last, this paper summarized the data of 6 monitoring items of 2 sample sets and gave the scores of college students’ entrepreneurial intention in the 6 aspects, and the results suggested that for college students with stronger entrepreneurial intention, the teaching quality of I&E practice was higher.
The Cultivation of Students’ Multiple Practical Ability Under the Multimodal Blended Teaching Mode
Authors: Wang Mimi
Published: June 2022

To adapt to the requirements of diversified development of modern education and the multi-modal communication between teachers and students, now high-techs and multi-modality have been introduced into the cultivation of the Multiple Practical Ability (MPA). However, existing studies on multimodal teaching generally focus on college students or high school students, few have concerned about the teaching design of practical ability cultivation under the synergy of different modalities. Therefore, to fill in this research blank, this paper took English teaching as an example to research the cultivation of MPA under the Multimodal Blended Teaching (MBT) mode. At first, this paper gave a flow chart of MBT and constructed a framework for the teaching modality system of MPA cultivation. Then, a Super-Efficiency Slacks-Based Measure (SE-SBM) model with objectively assigned combinatorial weights was established for evaluating the cultivation effect of students’ MPA, and the said cultivation effect under the MBT mode was analyzed in detail. At last, the effectiveness of the proposed model was verified via experiment, and the analysis results of the differences in the MPA cultivation of students under different conditions were given.

Organism network systems provide a biological data with high complex level. Besides, these data reflect the complex activities in organisms that identifies nonlinear behavior as well. Hence, mathematical modelling methods such as Ordinary Differential Equations model (ODE's) are becoming significant tools to predict, and expose implied knowledge and data. Unfortunately, the aforementioned approaches face some of cons such as the scarcity and the vagueness in the biological knowledge to expect the protein concentrations measurements. So, the main object of this research presents a computational model such as a neural Feed Forward Network model using Back Propagation algorithm to engage with imprecise and missing biological knowledge to provide more insight about biological systems in organisms. Therefore, the model predicts protein concentration and illustrates the nonlinear behavior for the biological dynamic behavior in precise form. Also, the desired results are matched with recent ODE's model and it provides precise results in simpler form than ODEs.

Published: June 2022

A competent contractor can be regarded as a catalyst to deliver a truly sustainable building and thus help to mitigate detrimental impacts to the built environment. The prequalification phase provides confidence to the owner to achieve a project’s sustainability requirements and reinforcing a mutual relationship with the selected contractor. This study proposes a decision framework for green building (GB) prequalification, which aims to improve the owner/contractor relationship. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify prequalification factors. To draw attention to GB projects and trust-based prequalification factors, a focus group discussion was performed with GB experts. A decision framework consisting of 12 relationship-based factors was then subjected to a fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (F-DEMATEL) method. The followed methodology aided the determination of the relationship-based prequalification factors, specification of the importance of factor degrees, illustration of the interrelationship among factors and consequently reveal the most causal factors that might contribute significantly to the improvement of the owner and contractor (O&C) relationship in GB projects. Results pointed out the importance of financial factors, while the same factors were found to be the driving force behind the improved relationship between O&C. Pertinent literature on prequalification in GB projects are limited, and no prior indepth study has investigated the prequalification phase based on trust and the mutual relationship between O&C. Highlighting the gap in the literature about trust-based contractor selection models, the proposed study can be useful to minimize conflicts and claims between the O&C, which could positively influence direct owners to consider GB projects.

Published: June 2022

Despite recent efforts aimed at promoting sustainability, very little has been done to integrate health and safety into the sustainability evaluation of the built environment. This research aimed to develop and validate a sustainable health and safety maturity model for evaluating the maturity of the health and safety practices of sustainable building projects. A detailed literature review was used to develop the model which consist of 22 safety maturity drivers and 251 critical to safety practices, after which it was subjected to an analytical hierarchy process and validation by expert judgement. The results showed that the most important safety maturity drivers were “risk and hazard management” and ‘incident investigation, performance and evaluation,” while the least important were “health and safety in contracts,” and ‘alcohol and drug testing.” Findings point to a potential relationship between the relevance of the safety maturity drivers and their relative importance in sustainable building onsite safety management. Construction organizations can use the model to evaluate and improve the maturity of the health and safety practices implemented on their sustainable building projects.
