This article deals with the ecological and environmental tendencies of the two largest Satanic groups in the Czech Republic. It first recapitulates the connection between mainstream religions and ecology. It then describes the absence of Satanism in major scholarly publications and uncovers a strong link between Satanism and ecology/animal rights. The text illustrates this in the words of Anton LaVey, Peter H. Gilmore, and several Satanic organi­zations including the Church of Satan, Temple of Set, Dragon Rouge, The Satanic Temple, and others. The article concludes by looking for ecological tendencies in the teachings of the two largest Satanic groups in the Czech Republic – the local version of LaVey’s Church of Satan and the Czech-influenced Community of Satan. Finally, the text briefly mentions the main research findings of these groups and concludes by showing them in relation to Bron Taylor’s model of dark green religions.
La intimidad de la felicidad y la compasión
Authors: Montero Anzola Jaime
Published: December 2022

En este capítulo se reflexiona en torno a la felicidad, el nihilismo y la reconciliación, aspectos esenciales de la compasión y de la necesidad de pensar acerca del destino de la humanidad. En el primer apartado se muestra la relación entre la felicidad, el consumismo, la alienación y la degradación de la persona. En el segundo, se ponen en contexto algunos aspectos de la filosofía socrática, la idea de la felicidad y el legado asumido por la escuela estoica como filosofía de vida. A continuación, se trabaja la idea de la subjetividad elemental y la vacuidad desarrollada por Nishitani Keiji, filósofo de la escuela de Kioto. En el tercer apartado se hacen algunas diferenciaciones entre el dolor y el sufrimiento y la importancia de la reconciliación. Posteriormente, se muestra la necesidad de considerar la raza humana como proyecto que va más allá de los sucesos cotidianos transitorios y el anhelo de aspirar a una nación humana universal teniendo como punto de referencia la regla de oro: ‘Trata a los demás como quisieras ser tratado’.
Multisource data acquisition based on single-chip microcomputer and sensor technology
Authors: Huang Yahui , Lei Daozhong
Published: December 2022

Today, data and information are flooded every day. Data are a reliable basis for scientific research. Their function is not only to clearly show real problems in various fields, but also to guide people to find the key factors that cause problems. The emergence of big data responds to this era of information explosion, and it is precisely by virtue of the accumulation of quantity that it presents the rules more clearly. No matter political, economic, cultural, and other fields are closely related to data. The application of microcontroller and sensor technology can help explore new branches of multisource data. However, the collection and analysis of multisource data only stays in the aspects of computer and communication technology. In view of the earlier problems, this article carried out scientific data collection and analysis of multisource data based on single-chip microcomputer and sensor technology. The research results showed that based on two algorithms, random early detection and weighted fair queuing, the analysis algorithm according to the Genetic Algorithm had a higher successful conversion rate. The power consumption of a node with better antenna performance was 9–10% lower than that of a node with poor antenna performance, which provided a basis for multisource data collection and analysis.

Sensitivity analysis for causal effects with generalized linear models
Authors: Sjölander Arvid , Gabriel Erin E. , Ciocănea-Teodorescu Iuliana
Published: December 2022

Residual confounding is a common source of bias in observational studies. In this article, we build upon a series of sensitivity analyses methods for residual confounding developed by Brumback et al. and Chiba whose sensitivity parameters are constructed to quantify deviation from conditional exchangeability, given measured confounders. These sensitivity parameters are combined with the observed data to produce a “bias-corrected” estimate of the causal effect of interest. We provide important generalizations of these sensitivity analyses, by allowing for arbitrary exposures and a wide range of different causal effect measures, through the specification of the target causal effect as a parameter in a generalized linear model with the arbitrary link function. We show how our generalized sensitivity analysis can be easily implemented with standard software, and how its sensitivity parameters can be calibrated against measured confounders. We demonstrate our sensitivity analysis with an application to publicly available data from a cohort study of behavior patterns and coronary heart disease.
Nonlinear companding transform for PAPR reduction of OTFS signals
Authors: Bitra Hanumantharao , Chintagunta Srinivasarao , Ponnusamy Palanisamy
Published: December 2022

Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is one of the major limitations of an Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) signals. To reduce the PAPR, a simple non-linear companding transform is proposed in this paper. The proposed companding transform mainly compresses the large amplitudes and slightly enhances the small amplitudes such that the peak power reduces but the average power remains unaltered. To validate the proposed companding transform, we compare the our proposed companding with the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), normalized μ− law, and clipping methods. Simulations demonstrate that, the proposed companded OTFS transform provides better PAPR than the proposed companded OFDM, μ− law companded OTFS and clipping methods.

A comprehensive review of nanofluids with fractional derivatives: Modeling and application
Authors: Shen Ming , Chen Hui , Zhang Mengchen , Liu Fawang , Anh Vo
Published: December 2022

Nanofluids have been widely used as a class of promising working fluids with excellent heat transfer properties. However, the theoretical research on the thermal enhancement mechanism of nanofluids is still in the preliminary stage. Fractional constitutive models provide a new powerful tool to investigate the superior mechanical and thermal properties of nanofluids owing to their advantages in depicting the memory and genetic properties of the system. Fractional nanofluid models have become one of the hot research topics in recent years as better control of flow behavior and heat transfer can be achieved by considering fractional derivatives. The existing studies have indicated that the results obtained by the fractional-order nanofluid model are more consistent with the experimental results than traditional integer-order models. The purpose of this review is to identify the advantages and applications of fractional nanofluid models. First, various definitions of fractional derivatives and correlations of flux utilized in nanofluid modeling are presented. Then, the recent researches on nanofluids with fractional derivatives are sorted and analyzed. The impacts of fractional parameters on flow behaviors and heat transfer enhancement are also highlighted according to the Buongiorno model as well as the Tiwari and Das nanofluid model with fractional operators. Finally, applications of fractional nanofluids in many emerging fields such as solar energy, seawater desalination, cancer therapy, and microfluidic devices are addressed in detail.
Social media behavior during uprisings: selective sharing and avoidance in the China (Hong Kong), Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon protests
Authors: Kozman Claudia , So Clement Y. K. , Salim Sahar Khalifa , Movahedian Mostafa , El Amin Jana , Melki Jad
Published: December 2022

Purpose

This study examines the use of social media by individuals during protests in China (Hong Kong), Iraq, Iran, and Lebanon.

Method

Surveys in the four countries assess the relationship between people’s attitudes toward the protests and their selection bias on social media, manifested through selective sharing and selective avoidance.

Findings

Regardless of the different political and media systems in each country, social media usage was largely similar. Overall, our findings established that people’s attitude strength toward the protests was associated with their selective sharing behavior; those who scored high on supporting the protests were more likely than those who scored high on opposing the protests to share news that supports the protests, and vice versa. As for selective avoidance, social media protest news use emerged as the strongest predictor. The more individuals followed and shared protest news on social media, the more likely they were to engage in selective avoidance by hiding or deleting comments, unfriending or unfollowing people, and blocking or reporting people for posting comments with which they disagreed.

Implications

For selective sharing, our findings are consistent with extant research that found individuals with strong attitudes toward certain issues are more likely to express their opinions on social media. Also, for selective avoidance, our study supports the literature, which shows individuals practice selective avoidance to clean up their environment from attitude-inconsistent information, especially on social media, and exceedingly so during protests and crises.

Value

Selection bias places individuals into secluded groups and contributes to political divisions and polarization. Research has focused on online selective exposure and on offline selective avoidance, but online selective avoidance and sharing have rarely been studied. Our study contributes to emerging research on selective sharing and selective avoidance online during a period of polarization in multiple countries.
Pioneer Archaeologists and the Influence of Their Scientific Relationships on Mesolithic Studies in North Iberia
Authors: Fano Miguel Ángel , de la Rasilla Marco , Cubas Miriam
Published: December 2022

Count Vega del Sella’s research marked the beginning of the long tradition of Mesolithic studies in Asturias (North Spain). Another pioneer, L. Sierra, explored a number of caves in Cantabria with Mesolithic shell-middens, but no specific research line was developed on this kind of deposit in the province. The early excavation at Santimamiñe Cave recorded the Basque Country’s first shell-midden, which was thought to belong to a different facies from the deposits in Asturias (Asturian shell-middens). Nevertheless, no line of research into the Mesolithic was developed in that area either. The first research on the Mesolithic in North Iberia did not take place in isolation from European Prehistoric studies at the time. In fact, the historiographical context was characterized by the existence of cordial relationships between the pioneers in this region and several foreign archaeologists. This feedback between Spanish and foreign archaeologists sometimes had a significant impact. In contrast, the relationships between Spanish authors were less intense. This situation and the recurring lack of information on the Mesolithic in Cantabria and the Basque Country did not encourage debate on the existence of different Mesolithic facies in northern Iberia. So for decades the Asturian and the eastern Mesolithic recorded in Cantabria and the Basque Country were regarded as independent objects of study. This indicates the relevance of the scientific relationships and other factors in the perception of the Mesolithic that took shape in the first decades of the twentieth century and which has been perpetuated until the present time.
Surface Texture and Microstructural Characterization of Thin-Walled Ti6Al4V Part Processed Using Laser Powder Bed Fusion Technique: Effect of Build Direction
Authors: Anand Kumar S. , Kushwaha Ajay , Shrivastava Abhishek , Nagesha B. K. , Barad Sanjay
Published: December 2022

Objective: The current research investigates the surface texture and microstructural characterization of thin-walled Ti6Al4V along the build direction processed using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technology using an intra-comparison approach. Methodology: The two-dimensional and three-dimensional surface morphology and multi-scale surface roughness analysis of all Ti6Al4V samples were performed using an opto-digital microscope (with extended focus imaging coupled with high dynamic range imaging). Moreover, the scanning electron microscope, microhardness tester, and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to analyze the microstructural and microhardness values. Findings: (1) The lath thickness was relatively thicker in the LPBF-processed Ti6Al4V sample’s microstructure at central locations than in the top and bottom locations. (2) The areal surface roughness (Sa), Rk, and Sk values were relatively lower for the middle region than for the bottom and top regions of the thin-walled part, implying nonuniform surface topography along the build direction. (3) The middle region had a higher surface texture and texture amplitude symmetry periodicity than the top and bottom regions along the build direction. Value: Overall, the established methodology employed on the thin-walled Ti6Al4V part processed using LPBF technology enables the selection criteria of a suitable surface finishing process to achieve isotropic finish for practical industrial applications.
Condition Monitoring of Lubricating Oils in Power Plants
Authors: Shah Raj , Wooton David , Huq Nabill
Published: December 2022

This paper explores the method by which lubricating oils that are used in power plants are maintained. Lubricants were shown to protect the tribological systems of power plant equipment through their physical and chemical properties and are key to maintaining the power plant's uptime and profitability. A comprehensive review of developing a condition monitoring program is provided. Proper tribodiagnostics of lubricants allow a power plant to predictively maintain the integrity of its equipment to maximize cost savings. The data collected from a successful condition monitoring program can show trends that provide insight into future diagnostics. The integration of artificial intelligence has become increasingly prevalent in condition monitoring systems and continues to be an avenue for future advancement in this field.
Backdating the Crip Technoscience Manifesto
Authors: Chamarette Jenny
Published: December 2022

This essay considers experimental filmmaker Stephen Dwoskin’s work as a lifelong process of technological activism and “knowing-making.” Using recent frameworks from Critical Disability Studies, Chamarette demonstrates how Dwoskin’s decades of activism parallel and in some cases pre-date the evolution of Disability Studies as it is currently situated. As an early adopter of digital and ‘cusp-of digital’ technologies (Hi-8 cameras, Mini-DV tapes, email, digital editing suites), Dwoskin’s creative work aligns with and backdates the “Crip Technoscience Manifesto” developed by Aimi Hamraie and Kelly Fritsch in 2019. Drawing on Dwoskin’s films and his archive, now housed at the University of Reading Special Collections (UK) Chamarette reframes Dwoskin’s late creative activity as tactics of technological adaptation, crip technoscience, and spheres of influence within digital and non-digital realms. These digital activisms ultimately give cause to reflect on the ambivalent, interdependent, friction-filled relationships between filmmaking, digitality and disability.

A Preliminary Study on Unwanted Sexual Intercourse Within Long-term Relationships in The Bahamas
Authors: Fielding William J. , Ballance Virginia C.
Published: December 2022

Rape has been a concern in The Bahamas and the law recognizes rape outside of marriage as being a criminal offence. However, the so-called “marital rape exception” means that rape within a marriage is not treated as a crime. This has resulted in several national conversations about changes to the law. This study focuses on established (long-term) relationships and so is distinct to previous studies on rape in The Bahamas. This Internet-based study, which obtained responses from over 1,000 women, attempts to provide a first estimate of the prevalence of rape within long-term relationships. The estimate of at least 15% is in line with other studies from North America. The results also indicate that over 50% of the adult population are in favour of changing the law allowing the marital rape exception; however, the level of support varies by sex and age of the respondent. Male respondents in the 55 or older age group were less inclined than younger men to agree that marital rape can occur. The study provides a preliminary estimate of the number of women who would be potentially protected by a change to the law and indicates that such a change would be in the public interest.
Bioresources for sustainable pellet production in Zambia: Twelve biomasses pelletized at different moisture contents
Authors: Henriksson Lisa , Frodeson Stefan , Berghel Jonas , Andersson Simon , Ohlson Mattias
Published: December 2022

The use of charcoal and firewood for cooking is common in Zambia, and its utilization is such that the deforestation rate is high, energy utilization is low, and unfavorable cooking methods lead to high death rates due to indoor air pollution mainly from particulate matter and carbon monoxide. By using an alternative cooking method, such as pellet stoves, it is possible to offer a sustainable solution, provided that sustainable pellet production can be achieved. In this study, 12 different available biomaterials were pelletized in a single pellet unit to investigate their availability as raw materials for pellet production in Zambia. The study showed that sicklebush and pigeon pea generated the same pelleting properties correlated with compression and friction and that both materials showed low moisture uptake. The study also identified two groups of materials that broadened the raw material base and helped to achieve sustainable pellet production. Group 1 consisted of materials with equal pelleting abilities (miombo, peanut shell, pigeon pea, and sicklebush) and Group 2 consisted of materials that showed low impact of varying moisture content (eucalyptus, miombo, peanut shell, pigeon pea, and sicklebush). The hardest pellet was made from Tephrosia, which was followed by Gliricidia.

Authors: Karaoğul Eyyüp , Alma M. Hakkı
Published: December 2022

The chemical compositions were investigated for pine essential oils obtained through a solvent-free microwave assistance extraction system (ME) and a conventional hydrodistillation system (HD). The essential oils of P. pinea, P. nigra, P. brutia, and P. sylvestris sawdust were analyzed by gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). The main components of the pine essential oils were D-limonene (52.8% for ME and 76.6% for HD), β-caryophyllene (12.4% for ME), β-myrcene (2.89% for ME and 1.48% for HD), sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (25% for ME and 9.79% for HD), and total sesquiterpene (25.25% for ME and 9.79% for HD) for P. pinea; D-limonene (28.1% for ME and 79.2% for HD) for P. nigra; α-pinene (76.6% for ME and 77.3% for HD), diterpene hydrocarbons (94.17% for ME and 95.62% for HD), and total diterpenes (94.94% for ME and 96.3% for HD) for P. brutia; β-pinene (36.7% for ME and 42.4% for HD), terpineol, (13.8% for ME and 6.06% for HD) diterpene alcohol (26% for ME and 12.57% for HD), and total oxygenated terpenes (26% for ME and 12.57% for HD)for P. sylvestris. Moreover, the ME was able to produce more diterpene alcohols and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons while the HD showed higher potential for the diterpene hydrocarbons. According to the heat-map correlation, P. pinea showed high similarity with P. nigra, while P. sylvestris was related to P. brutia.
Anatomical characteristics of Gigantochloa scortechinii bamboo rhizome in relation with hydraulic conductance
Authors: Mohamed Johar , Hamid Hazandy A. , Nuruddin Ahmad A. , Majid Nik M. N. A.
Published: December 2022

Structural development and modification of bamboo culm’s anatomical characteristics occur during the maturation period. This process affects the conductivity efficiency in individual bamboo culms (above ground). The present study clarified this process in the sympodial type of bamboo rhizome (belowground). This study aimed to observe the anatomical characteristics of Gigantochloa scortechinii rhizome, examine their relationship with different study sites and rhizome ages, and investigate their relationship with hydraulic conductance. Destructive sampling on four consecutive rhizomes was conducted using a selective random sampling method. All rhizome anatomical characteristics were significantly different between study sites except parenchyma diameter, parenchyma lumen diameter, and fiber cell wall thickness. The results also indicated that the vascular bundle diameter, parenchyma diameter, parenchyma lumen diameter, parenchyma cell wall thickness, fiber diameter, fiber cell wall thickness, and fiber length increased with age, but radial to tangential ratio decreased with age. All measured characteristics including the conductance elements had no relationship with hydraulic conductance, except parenchyma diameter and parenchyma lumen diameter. The sizes parenchyma diameter and lumen diameter did not imply a determinant factor in hydraulic conductance. Further studies on rhizome chemical attributes should be carried out to isolate the cause of decreasing hydraulic conductance.

Authors: Pang Sung-Jun , Ahn Kyung-Sun , Oh Jae-Won , Lee Han Shik , Kang Seog Goo , Oh Jung-Kwon
Published: December 2022

The fire resistance of structural wooden walls covered with fire-resisting boards was investigated. A 49-mm-thick gypsum board (No. 1 and No. 2), a 24-mm-thick diatomite (No. 3), and a combination of gypsum and diatomite board (No. 4 and No. 5) were theoretically designed for 2-h fire resistance. As a result, when the gypsum board was fixed to the wood studs with nails (No. 1), there was no damage after 2 h, as predicted. When diatomite boards were used on the surface to face the fire (No. 3 and No. 4), the diatomite boards were destroyed after approximately 50 min because of the cracks of the diatomite board. However, when the diatomite board (6 mm) was placed inside the gypsum board (30 mm), the specimen (No. 5) showed a fire resistance of more than 2 h. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the gypsum board using the diatomite board by avoiding placement of the diatomite board in direct contact with heat.

Published: December 2022

Article 1.93 (pt. 2) of the Civil Code of the Republic of Lithuania there is an established imperative that non-compliance with the form required by law deprives the parties of the process of the right, when there is a dispute regarding the conclusion of the transaction or the fact of its execution, to rely on the testimony of witnesses to prove this fact. In this scientific article, an empirical study was conducted, the purpose of which is to evaluate Article 1.93 (pt. 6) of the CC of the Republic of Lithuania the practical-problematic features of the application of the rule of exception to the admissibility of evidence, i.e. when, after applying the exception, the court is not guided by Article 1.93 (pt. 2) of the CC of the Republic of Lithuania established imperative. The research consists of six interrelated stages, during which the following scientific methods were applied: systematic analysis, document analysis, comparative analysis, logical-analytical, observation and generalization methods. The chosen research strategy and methodology determines the reliability of the research results and allows us to answer the hypothesis - is the jurisprudence formed by the Supreme Court of Lithuania sufficiently detailed and delineating clear boundaries for the courts of lower instances, applying Article 1.93 (pt. 6) of the CC of the Republic of Lithuania established exception to the admissibility of evidence and in order to avoid dual application of the legal norm. The research results are presented together with the conclusions, the essential conclusion is that - after the formation of a more detailed the highest court jurisprudence regarding the application of the rule of exception to the admissibility of evidence, Article 1.93 (pt. 2 and 6) of the CC of the Republic of Lithuania, the equality of persons would be ensured, more concreteness and stability would be created in civil relations, and this would significantly facilitate the resolution of disputes in the future.
Robust Post-Hoc Multiple Comparisons: Skew t Distributed Error Terms
Authors: Celik Nuri
Published: December 2022

The pairwise comparisons or post-hoc methods are used for determining the source of the difference of group means in one-way ANOVA. These methods are mostly depend on normality assumption. However, nonnormal distributions are more prevalent than normal distribution. Therefore, robust estimation methods become very important tools in statistical analysis. In this paper, we assume that the distribution of the error terms is Azzalini's skew $t$ and obtain the robust estimators in order to make post-hoc tests in one-way ANOVA. We use maximum likelihood (ML) methodology and compare this methodology with some of robust estimators like M estimator, Wave estimator, trimmed mean and modified maximum likelihood (MML) methodology with Monte Carlo simulation study. Simulation results show that the proposed methodology is more preferable. We also compare power values of the test statistics and conclude that the test statistics based on the ML estimators are more powerful than the test statistics based on other methods.
La transformación digital en la investigación y en las bibliotecas especializadas en América Latina y el Caribe
Authors: Müller Christoph
Published: December 2022

La transformación digital de los contenidos, los métodos de trabajo y las herramientas de la investigación plantea a las bibliotecas retos cada vez más importantes. Tienen que satisfacer las diferentes necesidades de los investigadores con información electrónica específica y nuevos servicios digitales.
En el contexto de la investigación centrada en América Latina y el Caribe, la oferta de recursos de información digital puede realizarse gracias a numerosas plataformas de y sobre la región que proporcionan información en acceso abierto o de pago. Por otro lado, la gestión y la seguridad de los datos digitales de investigación es aún más complicada, ya que los productores de datos de investigación tienen que elegir entre los repositorios de las respectivas instituciones o países y los repositorios disciplinarios en el ámbito internacional. Por lo tanto, hasta ahora no existe una organización y provisión central de datos de investigación sobre América Latina y el Caribe.
Por eso, es tarea de investigadores y bibliotecarios en un intercambio conjunto coordinar la oferta de información y la gestión sostenible de los datos de investigación con las necesidades específicas de los científicos y desarrollar nuevos servicios digitales.
En el proceso de desarrollo de las últimas décadas cada vez es más evidente la importancia del intercambio entre investigadores y bibliotecarios, coordinando y desarrollando requisitos y servicios de información.
Partiendo de las plataformas de publicación electrónica, los sistemas de información de revistas y las bibliotecas (digitales) alemanas e internacionales especializadas en América Latina y el Caribe, se presentarán diversas ofertas de información relevantes para la investigación sobre esta región y se contrastarán y discutirán estrategias y desafíos para estas ofertas.

Spiritual Wounds and Injuries (Part 1)
Authors: Davies Murray J
Published: December 2022

Moral injury (MI) has become a significant area of study and debate with regard to veterans’ mental health and general well-being. Due to the nature and intensity of coalition operations in Iraq and Afghanistan over a prolonged period, MI has become one of the “signature wounds” of these conflicts. Spiritual damage is a critical aspect of the MI paradigm. For some people, exposure to complex and demanding environments and situations creates threats to their spiritual understanding and belief systems. These threats may be expressed through doubt about their beliefs surrounding the concept of an omniscient, omnipotent, omnibenevolent divine creator. Such doubt, uncertainty and distress can negatively affect an individual’s overall mental health and well-being. This article seeks to achieve two objectives. The first is to introduce some of the history, language and concepts regarding MI, in order to enable spiritual care practitioners to participate in this crucial area of veterans’ health and well-being. This participation may include, but is not limited to, definitional research, language analysis, treatment and management. This study also serves as a starting point for a deeper discussion on whether spiritual damage is best described in a MI context, or whether a deeper analysis is needed independent of MI syndrome.
Indexing authority in the classroom
Authors: Nasi Nicola
Published: December 2022

The paper explores children’s authoritative claims in the peer group, focusing on the practices through which children achieve a position of deontic and/or epistemic authority during peer conflict. Drawing from ethnographic research documented with video recordings in two primary schools in northern Italy, this study adopts a CA-informed approach to analyse 8- to 10-year-old children’s conflictual negotiations of authoritative positions in the group hierarchy. As the analysis illustrates, children mobilize institutional entities and strategically deploy knowledge to underpin their local claims of authority. In the discussion it is argued that such practices are relevant to children’s socialization into classroom expectations and to the local negotiation of valued identities in the peer group. These insights are also declined in relation to the dichotomy between social inclusion and exclusion.

Social media has become an integral part of life, including in the field of education. This study aimed to explore social media as a teaching and learning tool, its use, and its benefit for students of English as Foreign Language. This study applied library research from George (2008), where the sources of the data were previous studies on the use of social media in the context of English as Foreign Language, published in reputable international journals or accredited national journal ranked SINTA 1, SINTA 2, and SINTA 3, between 2015 to 2020. The review revealed that YouTube, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have been frequently applied as English learning media through various activities that matched the features provided by the respective social media. Their implementations in English learning have been argued to positively impact the students’ language skills, vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, spelling, motivation, as well as their creative and critical thinking. These results reflect a positive attitude toward social media as an inseparable part of the students’ 21st – century learning contexts. However, more studies need to be conducted to optimize the use of social media for improving students’ English and their 21st-century skills.

Halal tourism is one part of the halal industry ecosystem, realizing a world halal hub in 2024. This research supports the presentation of a Muslim-friendly tourism industry, especially in encouraging the improvement of the creative economy (sharia) in Indonesia, which is still relatively increasing but not too significant. Even though Muslim-friendly (halal industry) is not visited only by the Muslim community. his research focuses on discussing halal tourism and sharia economic development strategies as a reference in realizing the halal creative industry in Indonesia. The research method uses SOAR (Strength, Opportunity, Aspirations, Result) and QSPM (Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix) analysis to determine strategic priorities in realizing the halal industry in the Muslim-friendly tourism sector. The results of the QSPM analysis lead to the optimization of human resources specifically targeting Muslim-friendly tourism expertise through selection, socialization and workshops/training related to functions, the eco-system of halal tourism through the stages on the road maps of halal tourism in Indonesia. through a system that has been formed, the halal certification process is accelerated through mentoring, certification of halal auditors and supervisors so that the form of halal quality products can be guaranteed, with the highest score of 2,4926.

Purpose. To perform a critical analysis of approaches to determining the stress-strain state of the "horizontal working – layered massif" system. Obtain informed decisions for applying a specific approach to the case of a layered massif. To substantiate the metric of finite element models of the system "horizontal working – layered massif". Methodology. To achieve the purpose, the peculiarities of approaches to determining the stress-strain state of the system "horizontal working – rock massif" were analyzed. It has been proven that layering is the most important structural feature of the surrounding rock massif. A detailed analysis of mathematical methods for solving elastic-plastic problems for rock massifs was performed. Findings. During the analysis of solving the problem of determining the stress-strain state of the system "horizontal working – layered massif", two approaches were identified, each of which has its own set of methods. These approaches are analytical one and numerical, each of them has special features. It has been confirmed that recently the studies of the system "horizontal working - rock massif" are mostly based on the numerical approach, leaving only a small share of the total volume to the analytical one. It was determined that the introduction of numerical methods, in particular, the method of finite elements in  specialized  software complexes, allowed to change the concept of research in geomechanics and mechanics of underground structures, shifting the focus to mathematical and simulation modeling. Originality. Based on the results of the critical analysis of the approaches, the use of numerical analysis based on finite-element models is scientifically substantiated. It is this approach to determining the stress-strain state of the "horizontal working – layered massif" system that allows for layering to be taken into account without additional assumptions. Practical value. In the course of research, it has been proven that a spatial finite-element model from a flat prototype, but limited to a thickness of 0.1 or 1 m, is adequate for the given task, provided that plane deformation is considered.

Purpose. The issue of resuming automobile traffic is an important task for the resumption of logistical state and local movements. The purpose of the work is to study and implement the experience of restoring transport infrastructure and construction of fortifications, its distribution, and the wide implementation of lessons learned in the training process of units of the State Special Service of Transport and other bridge construction specialists. The experience of using reserve beams under railway load for a road bridge is shown on the example of the restoration of automobile traffic across the Irpin River for passenger cars without load capacity restrictions. An example of restoration of man-made structures on the detour next to the bridge is given. Methodology. The issue of resuming automobile traffic is an important task for the resumption of logistical state and local movements. Examples of restoration of artificial structures are given. It also shows the use of modern technologies, mechanisms, and methods of restoring structures on the bypass or on the old axis of the bridge. Findings. The main elements of the bridge over the Irpin river located on the public highway of state importance Ib technical category M-06 Kyiv-Chop (to the city of Budapest via the cities of Lviv, Mukacheve, Uzhhorod) were destroyed by mechanical damage as a result of hostilities in Ukraine. The characteristics of the destruction do not contribute to the restoration of the artificial structure on the existing axis of the structure. The restoration of the bridge was carried out on a short detour – 50 m downstream of the Irpin River. Originality. Today, the need to restore artificial structures arises in connection with their destruction during the war and after disasters of a natural, man-made, and military nature. There is an urgent need to study and implement the experience of restoring the transport infrastructure and construction of fortifications, its distribution among the personnel, the wide implementation of the lessons learned in the training process of the units of the State Special Transport Service. Practical value. The practical result of the use of reserve span structures of small and medium-sized railway bridges was obtained, which confirms the universal possibility of using the structures of the inventory bridge property, not only for conducting restoration works on the railway, but also for the restoration and construction of a temporary road bridge.
A physics-informed data-driven approach for consolidation analysis
Authors: Zhang Pin , Yin Zhen-Yu , Sheil Brian
Published: December 2022

Identifying governing equations from data and solving them to acquire spatio-temporal responses is desirable, yet highly challenging, for many practical problems. Data-driven modelling has shown significant potential to influence knowledge discovery in complex geotechnical processes. To demonstrate feasibility, in this study a physics-informed data-driven approach is developed to automatically recover Terzaghi's consolidation theory from measured data and obtain the corresponding solutions. This process incorporates several algorithms including sparse regression and prior information-based neural network (PiNet), transformed weak-form partial differential equations (PDEs) (to reduce sensitivity to noisy measurement) and Monte Carlo dropout to achieve a measure of prediction uncertainty. The results indicate that consolidation PDEs can be accurately extracted using the proposed approach, which is also shown to be robust to noisy measurements. PDEs solved by PiNet are also shown to provide excellent agreement with actual results, thus highlighting its potential for inverse analysis. The proposed approach is generic and provides an auxiliary method to verify heuristic interpretations of data or to directly identify patterns and obtain solutions without the need for expert intervention.
