In order to meet the customer requirements, criteria for sufficient stability of the production process of P4 crankshaft forgings with untreated counterweights for controllling unbalance dispersion values depending on the key parameters of a forging (KPF) and the hot die forging (HBI) process have been established. A method for predicting the stability of the hot forging process of P4 crankshaft forgings with untreated counterweights using a non-linear model describing the key characteristic of the forging («crookedness») was developed. The control method of the unbalance dispersion of the forging depending on its KPF was tested at the forging shop. A methodological basis with respect to numerical analysis and prediction of balancing the forgings was developed.

Malam ini kita merayakan Malam Natal tat kala Yesus lahir di kandang domba di Betlehem. Ada banyak kenangan dan inspirasi atas peristiwa ini bagi kita sekarang. Peringatan ini tidak berlalu begitu saja tetapi harus membawa makna bagi kita sekarang. Dalam Malam Natal ini akan membahas tema “RAJA DAMAI TELAH LAHIR”. Kelahiran Raja Damai itu telah dinubuatkan nami Mikha. Dalam Mikha 5, dituliskan bahwa Allah akan membangkitkan seorang dari Betlehem Efrata yang akan memerintah Israel, ia akan bertindak dan akan menggembalakan mereka dalam kekuatan Tuhan, dalam kemegahan nama Tuhan Allahnya (ay. 3). Tidak hanya itu, orang ini dinubuatkan akan menjadi damai sejahtera (ay. 4). Kata damai sejahtera yang digunakan adalah shalom. Kata ini memiliki arti yang lebih luas dari sekedar kata damai. Shalom dalam bahasa Ibrani berarti utuh, sempurna, kebaikan, kesejahteraan, ketenangan. Shalom sendiri dalam Perjanjian Lama dikaitkan dengan berkat Tuhan (Bil. 6:26).

Thomas Malthus dianggap sebagai tokoh klasik setelah Adam Smith yang banyak berjasa dalam pemikiran ekonomi. Pemikiran yang tidak sejalan antara Malthus dengan Smith. Dimana smith optimis akan kehidupan manusia namun Malthus pesimis dengan hal itu. Penyebab pesimisme Malthus ialah dari faktor tanah. Karena tanah merupakan salah satu faktor produksi yang tetap jumlahnya. David Ricardo sependapat dengan Smith bahwa labor memengang peran penting dalam perekonomian yang kemudian dikembangkan menjadi teori harga relatif berdasarkan biaya produksi yaitu biaya labor memegang peran penting dalam perekonomian-perekonomian yang kemudian dikembangkan menjadi teori harga relatif berdasarkan biaya produksi yaitu biaya kapital. Kontribusi Jean Baptiste Say yang paling besar terhadap aliran klasik ialah pandangannya yang mengatakan bahwa setiap penawaran akan menciptakan permintaannya sendiri (supply creates its owm demand). Pendapat Jean Baptisie Say diatas disebut Hukum Say (Say’s Law). Hukum Say didasarkan pada asumsi bahwa nilaiproduksi selalu sama dengan pendapatan.

In-Depth Analysis of a Fraction Comparison Task
Authors: Morales Nicolas , Gomez David Maximiliano
Published: December 2022

Fraction comparison tasks are commonly used in research to assess students’ knowledge of fractions. However, as fractions are complex multi-faceted constructs that are understood in distinct manners by different groups of children, it is relevant to investigate the properties of fraction comparison tasks to understand what conclusions can be validly drawn from their outcomes. In this paper, we perform a psychometric analysis of secondary data from a fraction comparison task performed by 403 school children from 10 to 12 years of age. The task consisted of 24 fraction pairs to be compared. These pairs could share or not a common component (numerator or denominator) and could be either congruent or incongruent (i.e. items for which naive comparison of the natural numbers composing the fractions leads to the same or different answer than comparing the fractions’ magnitudes). Results showed that congruent items had substantially higher scores and lower discrimination indices than incongruent items. Strikingly, congruent items without common components showed null or negative discrimination indices, driven both by unusually low scores obtained by top-performing children and unusually high scores obtained by low-performing children. Finally, a confirmatory factor analysis suggested a 3-factor structure, with all incongruent items pooled into a single factor, as the best for describing the responses of students who were not extremely guided by item congruency. Our results confirm that fraction comparison items elicit complex patterns of responses across different groups of students, questioning simple interpretations of item characteristics such as congruency.
Brief category learning distorts perceptual space for complex scenes
Authors: Son Gaeun , Bernhardt-Walther Dirk , Mack Michael Louis
Published: December 2022

The formation of categories is known to distort perceptual space: representations are pushed away from category boundaries and pulled toward categorical prototypes. This phenomenon has been studied with artificially constructed objects, whose feature dimensions are easily defined and manipulated. How such category-induced perceptual distortions arise for complex, real-world scenes, however, remains largely unknown due to the technical challenge of measuring and controlling scene features. We address this question by generating realistic scene images from a high-dimensional continuous space using generative adversarial networks and using the images as stimuli in a novel learning task. Participants learned to categorize the scene images along arbitrary category boundaries and later reconstructed the same scenes from memory. Systematic biases in reconstruction errors closely tracked each participants’ subjective category boundaries. These findings suggest that the perception of global scene properties is warped to align with a newly learned category structure after only a brief learning experience.
Meta-memory (prediction) of specific autobiographical recall: An experimental approach using a modified Autobiographical Memory Test
Authors: Matsumoto Noboru
Published: December 2022

Autobiographical memory specificity is known to contribute to better mental health, social problem-solving, and episodic future thinking. While numerous studies have addressed variables that affect autobiographical memory specificity, little is known regarding the meta-memory processes that underpin memory retrieval. In this study, we introduced two meta-memory constructs, ease of retrieval judgments and anticipation of negative emotion evoked, which potentially affect autobiographical memory specificity. Participants (N = 109) first rated the ease of retrieval and anticipated emotions for positive and negative words used in a subsequent autobiographical memory test. We used the Optional Instructions of the Autobiographical Memory Test, in which participants were instructed that “specific memories are better, but other memories are permissible,” allowing them to adjust how much cognitive effort they spent on generative retrieval after a failure of direct retrieval. They also self-judged whether each retrieval was generative (using additional cues with cognitive effort) or direct (immediate recall without much cognitive effort). Results showed that for generative retrieval, ease of retrieval was associated with greater specific and general memories and fewer omissions. A more negative anticipated emotion was associated with fewer specific memories and greater omissions, but was not with general memories. These results suggest that low retrievability and anticipated negative emotion prevent individuals from devoting efforts to generative retrieval. The lack of association between anticipated negative emotion and general memory calls into question the functional avoidance hypothesis regarding autobiographical memory specificity. We discussed how participants judged these meta-memories and directions for future research.
Patients’ experiences of clinical team meetings (ward rounds) at an adult inpatient eating disorders ward: a mixed-method service improvement project
Authors: Yim Vanessa , Jones Roshan , Cooper Myra , Roberts Lyn , Viljoen David
Published: December 2022

Aims Ward rounds are key to treatment-related decision making but often stressful. This project aimed to explore and improve patients’ experiences of the clinical team meeting (CTM, historically known as ward round) in an adult inpatient eating disorders unit. A mixed-method approach was adopted using in-vivo observations, two focus groups and an interview. Six patients participated. Two former patients contributed to data analysis, co-production of service improvement initiatives and write-up. Results The mean CTM duration was 14.3 minutes. Patients spoke half of the time, followed by psychiatry colleagues. ‘Request’ was the most-spoken category. Three themes were identified – CTMs are important but impersonal; a sense of palpable anxiety was generated, with divergent views between staff and patients. Clinical implications The co-produced changes to CTMs were implemented and improved patient’s experiences despite COVID-19 challenges. Factors beyond CTMs including the ward’s power hierarchy, culture and language need addressing to facilitate shared decision-making.
Mental Health Interventions in the Juvenile Justice System: A Scoping Review

Published: December 2022

Background: Adolescents in the juvenile justice system are vulnerable to mental health problems, a challenge that is exacerbated by the rehabilitation methods used in these settings. There is a need to understand adolescent mental health in juvenile detention settings with an emphasis on possible interventions that can improve adolescent mental health while incarcerated. This scoping review aims to identify mental health interventions in the juvenile justice system. Methods: We conducted a scoping review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) Checklist used to guide reporting. A search was conducted on the PsycINFO and Google scholar databases for original research articles published between 1990 and 2021. Results: Our search generated 3575 studies; 3506 were excluded after screening. Sixty-nine articles met the inclusion criteria after the first screening. A second review narrowed this to 23 studies. The total sample size for all included studies was 4,798 participants aged 11-20 years. Forty two percent of included studies investigated multisystemic therapy, 26% of studies examined cognitive therapies, 11% harnessed behavioral approaches, and the remaining 21% implemented counseling services, functional family therapy, and trauma affect regulation therapy. Conclusion: Our review identified 18 interventions that were administered to populations in juvenile correctional facilities. Multisystemic therapy and cognitive therapy were the most common, with MST showing more efficacy in improving juvenile mental health problems. Our study reveals the paucity of research on this important topic and identifies the need for more robust trials of character-building interventions in juvenile centers.
Att förkroppsliga Shakti
Authors: Olsson Tova
Published: December 2022

In recent years, contemporary tantra, sometimes referred to as “neo-tantra” has spread substantially throughout Sweden. Emphasizing intimacy and polarity as means to healing and liberation, the movement tends to highlight ideals of  “masculine males” and ”feminine females”, while identifying women with Shakti (creativity/immanence) and men with Shiva (consciousness/transcendence). This text examines the use of polarity and more precisely notions of femininity within Swedish contemporary tantra, using qualitative interviews. The purpose is to analyse the relationship between tantric femininity/femininities and the agency and subjectivity of female practitioners. The material is construed from a critical feminist theoretical framework, taking its point of departure in the concept of plural and positional femininities as well as Luce Irigaray’s “sexual difference” (Irigaray 1994) and Rosi Braidotti’s ”nondual materialism” (Braidotti 2011). Irigaray’s position as being one of essentialism is discussed and related to her ventures into yogic and tantric practice. The study suggests that Swedish contemporary tantra in many ways fortifies gender-stereotypical views on femininity while the question of the effects on women’s agency and subjectivity is discussed and left open for further research.
Study of Ancient Indian Pottery in a Geographical Context
Authors: Chaudhary Avadhesh Kumar
Published: December 2022

Love for beauty is an innate tendency of human beings. It is the consciousness of beauty that gives artistry to human interest. The preoccupation to express one's feelings has been there in humans since the primitive age. The stone paintings made of ocher or dhau stone (hamelite) on the walls of ancient caves are proof of the distraction of human expression of that era. Along with the development of civilization, the expression-ability of man also spread from various sources. When the power of imagination was coordinated with human's emotional and creative talent, its expression started touching the higher dimensions of artistry. This skill of expression is the mother of art. Man expressed his artistic feelings sometimes through literature, sometimes through music, sometimes through paintings, sometimes through sculptures and sometimes through architecture. Indus civilization is counted among the oldest civilizations of the world. The evidence of this civilization is about 5000 years old. Remains of the Indus civilization are earthenware jars, bronzes, seals made of alabaster, figures of soft stone, figures of humans and animals and birds made of clay, and idols of many mother goddesses made of clay. Whatever the craftsmen made on clay in illiterate ways of humans and animals and birds, whatever style they adopted, but even today it is surprising to the human being.

Abstract in Hindi Language:

सौन्दर्य प्रियता मानव की सहज प्रवृत्ति है। सौन्दर्य की चेतना ही मानव की अभिरुचि को कलात्मकता प्रदान करती है। अपनी अनुभूतियों को व्यक्त करने की व्याकुलता मानव में आदिम–युग से रही है। प्राचीन कन्दराओं की भित्तियों पर गेरू या धाउ पत्थर (हैमेलाइट) से बने प्रस्तर चित्र उस युग के मानव की भावाभिव्यक्ति की व्याकुलता के प्रमाण हैं। सभ्यता के विकास के साथ-साथ मनुष्य की अभिव्यक्ति-क्षमता भी विविध स्रोतों से प्रसारित हुई। मानव की भावयित्री और कारयित्री प्रतिभा के साथ जब कल्पनाशक्ति का समन्वय हुआ तो उसकी अभिव्यक्ति कलात्मकता के उच्च आयामों का स्पर्श करने लगी। अभिव्यक्ति की यही कुशलता कला की जननी है। मानव ने अपनी कलात्मक अनुभूतियों को कभी साहित्य‚ कभी संगीत‚ कभी चित्र‚ कभी मूर्ति तथा कभी स्थापत्य के माध्यम से व्यक्त किया। सिन्धु सभ्यता की गणना विश्व की प्राचीनतम सभ्यताओं में की जाती है। इस सभ्यता के प्रमाण लगभग 5000 साल पुराने है। सैन्धव सभ्यता के अवशेष मिट्टी से बने मृत्तिका जार, कांसे, सेलखड़ी की मुहरें, नर्म पत्थर की आकृतियां, मिट्टी की मानव व पशु-पक्षियों की आकृति और मृण्मयी अनेकों मातृदेवी की प्रतिमायें प्राप्त होते है । शिल्पकारों ने मृत्तिका पर जो भी मानव व पशु-पक्षियों की अनपढ़ तरीकों से बनाई, इन्होनें चाहे जो भी शैली को अपनाया पर आज भी यह मानव को चौंका देने वाली है।

Group II- Rats were given an intraperitoneal injection of 20mg/kg lead acetate for 5 days. Group III- Rats were orally given 3mg/kg vinpocetine, which was given 1hr before [(the IP injection of Pb every 24 hours at a dose of 20mg/kg) for 5 days and continued for 10 days]. On 11th day of the study, the brain of each animal has been surgically cut-out to make homogenate preparation to estimate tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels.
Lead significantly elevated TNF-α and IL-1beta; while, it significantly decreased IL-10 levels. Vinpocetine significantly minimized IL-1beta and TNF-α; furthermore, vinpocetine significantly raise IL-10 levels at (P<0.05).
Vinpocetine may have a neuro-protective activity against lead-stimulated toxicity brain of rats.

Abstract: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the widespread chronic liver diseases; it is ranging from simple fat buildup in the liver (steatosis) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) presence of inflammation and hepatocyte injury.                                                                                                                                                                                                          This study aims to assess the effect of vitamin E on the degree of fatty infiltration in the liver, liver enzymes, and lipid profile.                                                          

A prospective open-labeled clinical trial involved (39) Participants diagnosed with NAFLD depending on ultrasonography findings, they were administered vitamin E 800IU\day for 12wks and advised to take low fat, low carbohydrate diet and to do regular sport. Steatosis score, liver enzymes, fasting blood sugar and lipid profile were measured at baseline and repeated at 4wks and 12wks of the study period.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Results of this study found that vitamin E reduces steatosis score significantly at 12wks (p=0.0001), while liver enzymes ALT and ALP did not show significant difference throughout the study period at 12wks (p=0.081 for ALT, P=0.117 for ALP) only AST showed significant difference ( p=0.008 at 12wks ), total cholesterol and triglyceride were reduced significantly (p=0.0001 for both) at 4wks and 12wks where HDL and fasting blood glucose were not altered significantly through the study period.  In conclusion, vitamin E and lifestyle modifications have a positive impact on patients with NAFLD by reducing steatosis score, lipid profile, and BMI
A Comparative Study for the Accuracy of Three Molecular Docking Programs Using HIV-1 Protease Inhibitors as a Model
Authors: Salih Twana Mohsin
Published: December 2022

Flexible molecular docking is a computational method of structure-based drug design to evaluate binding interactions between receptor and ligand and identify the ligand conformation within the receptor pocket. Currently, various molecular docking programs are extensively applied; therefore, realizing accuracy and performance of the various docking programs could have a significant value. In this comparative study, the performance and accuracy of three widely used non-commercial docking software (AutoDock Vina, 1-Click Docking, and UCSF DOCK) was evaluated through investigations of the predicted binding affinity and binding conformation of the same set of small molecules (HIV-1 protease inhibitors) and a protein target HIV-1 protease enzyme. The tested sets are composed of eight receptor-ligand complexes with high resolution crystal structures downloaded from Protein Data Bank website. Molecular dockings were applied between approved HIV-1 protease inhibitors and the HIV-1 protease using AutoDock Vina, 1-Click Docking, and DOCK6. Then, docking poses of the top-ranked solution was realized using UCSF Chimera. Furthermore, Pearson correlation coefficient (r) and coefficient of determination (r2) between the experimental results and the top scored docking results of each program were calculated using Graphpad prism V9.2. After comparing saquinavir top scored binding poses of each docking program with the crystal structure, various conformational changes were observed. Moreover, according to the relative comparison between the top ranked calculated ?Gbinding values against the experimental results, r2 value of AutoDock Vina, 1-Click Docking, and DOCK6 were 0.65, 0.41, and 0.005, respectively. The outcome of this study shows that the top scored binding free energy could not produce the best pose prediction. In addition, AutoDock Vina results have the highest correlation with the experimental results.

This article was prepared in 2011 and its publication at this time represents a reminder to Prof. doctor Herbert Pöllmann, who contributed to the field and analytical activities. The manganese ore from Urucum, in Mato Grosso do Sul, constitutes an important reserve of this mineral good and in recent years has been the scene of many constant researches in several publications, mainly in the last five years, with emphasis on both Mn and Fe. At the time we analyzed the few samples of this unpretentious article, publications were still scarce. Our analyzes are restricted to a few samples and the sampling is not representative of the different levels at which Mn ore occurs. The mineralogical and chemical results of these samples indicate mineralogy dominated by cryptomelana and low concentrations of most trace elements, especially REE. Anomalous are mainly Ba, Sr and Co. The origin o this ore is undoubtedly sedimentary, with little or no terrigenous contribution.

Published: December 2022

This work responds to the call of the editor of Bomgeam in its edition 9 (2022) Nr.1 and in thanks to the honored Prof. Dr. Herbert Pöllmann (in memoriam) for his participation in a literary event in Belém, on the occasion of the launch of the book “O que evitar nas apresentações em PPT”, which took place in 2012, accompanied by the editor Prof. Dr. Marcondes Lima da Costa, prefacer of this book. Some requirements for the organization and conservation of the museum collection are presented, based on the scarce bibliographic reference and on observations made during visits to museums. In Brazil, specific legislation on museums is governed by Law No. 11,904, of January 14, 2009 (Museum Statute). This law defines and excludes from the Museum Statute the “visitable collections”, eliminating in its organization the requirements imposed on museums. As a materialization of this tribute, the “Wonder’ Room” (Quarto das Maravilhas) of Aracati-CE is used, a kind of personal museum or one of those “visitable collections” provided for by the legislation, to describe the numerous possibilities of dividing the mineralogical collection into thematic collections and applying the requirements organization and conservation of mineralogical specimens.
The investigation of isokinetic knee strength and muscle balance of taekwondo and wrestling athletes
Authors: ÖLMEZ Cengiz
Published: December 2022

Taekwondo and wrestling are two different Olympic combat sports that need lower extremity strength in different ways. During the training process that lasts for many years, the harmony in the leg muscles may be dissimilar. This study aims to determine (1) the knee extension and flexion strength values of elite taekwondo and wrestling athletes with similar physical and demographic characteristics and (2) the muscle balances formed after long-term taekwondo and wrestling training. This study was conducted with the voluntary participation of 20 elite taekwondo and wrestling athletes (age: 20.4±1.27 years; experience: 10.6±1.98 years; height 176.65±5.86 cm; weight 72.96±6, 96 kg; BMI 23.35±1.47 kg/m2). Following the determination of the demographic and physical characteristics of the athletes, their isokinetic knee strengths were examined at an angular velocity of 600/s and compared between taekwondo and wrestling. Accordingly, the differences between the extension relative and average peak torque strengths of the athletes were significant in favour of the taekwondo players in the extension strength. On the other hand, the hamstring/quadriceps strength ratios of the taekwondo athletes were lower (p0.05). The study results showed that taekwondo players have higher extension strength. In the observed groups, it was determined that the muscular asymmetry occurred at different levels because of the adaptation specific to the sport type. Taekwondo trainings allows more balanced hamstring/quadriceps muscle harmony than wrestling. It is recommended to develop training programs in which the flexor muscles are trained against muscular imbalances in wrestling.
