ПРОБЛЕМА ПРОФЕСІЙНОЇ АДАПТАЦІЇ МОЛОДИХ ПЕДАГОГІВ У НАУКОВИХ ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯХ
Authors: Шалівська Юлія Василівна
Published: June 2020

Сучасна освіта, що безперервно перебуває в режимі реформування, потребує фахівців, здатних не лише пристосовуватись до таких умов, а й уміти навчатись упродовж життя, критично мислити, ставити цілі та досягати їх, працювати в команді, швидко реагувати на зміни, що відбуваються в суспільстві на кожному етапі його розвитку. Традиційний розрив в теорії і практиці під час підготовки майбутніх учителів у закладах вищої освіти призводить лише до часткового усвідомлення молодими фахівцями сутності виконання різних видів професійної діяльності. Відтак, педагоги – вчорашні випускники потребують обов’язкового проходження професійного навчання безпосередньо на робочому місці, підтримки й допомоги колег, досвідченого педагога-наставника, тобто професійної адаптації до нового соціального статусу й нових умов, застосування й удосконалення сформованих компетентностей для здійснення продуктивної педагогічної діяльності. Питання професійної адаптації не є новими, однак залишаються об’єктом розгляду багатьох науковців. У статті проаналізована проблема професійної адаптації молодих педагогів у наукових дослідженнях. У результаті психолого-педагогічного аналізу літературних джерел з’ясовано сутність понять «молодий педагог», «адаптація», «професійна адаптація», виділено сутнісні ознаки цього феномена, розглянуто етапи та структурні компоненти професійної адаптації. Особлива увага звертається на необхідність розробки системи організаційно-педагогічних заходів не лише з боку закладів середньої, а й вищої освіти.

Published: June 2020

Vibrations in rotor bearing systems are mostly produced by misalignment, imbalance, mechanical looseness, cracks and other malfunctions. Now-a-days, diagnostics of rotor defects gaining importance day by day. This paper introduces a new methodology to detect cracks based on amplitude and frequency of vibration data. Experiments were conducted at different levels of crack depth, its position and shaft rotational speed on a shaft which was held between two bearings. Experimental results of amplitude and frequency of vibration were measured in axial, vertical and horizontal directions at both the bearings. Signal to noise ratios were calculated for the experimental results using Taguchi method to identify significant parameters which are having effect on the experimental results. Neural network models were developed for the experimental results to predict them. The neural network was trained with the experimental data and predicted the responses. In addition to that, Taguchi method was also used to predict the responses. A comparison was carried out among the experimental results, artificial neural networks (ANN) predicted values and Taguchi predicted values. The comparison reveals that there is good agreement among them and the ANN and Taguchi methods can be used to predict the amplitude and frequency of responses.

The term Geopolymer was coined by Professor Davidovits in 1978, a kind of inorganic polymer that can be prepared at room temperature by utilizing modern waste. Any material that contains for the most part silicon (Si) and Aluminium (Al) is a source material for the production of Geopolymer. Geopolymer is an inorganic polymer composites which is an eco-friendly sustainable product by replacing the conventional concrete such as Flyash, Ground Granulated Blast furnace slag (GGBS, Silica fume, Metakaolin(MK) and other siliceous materials are used as substitute binders to Portland cement. The properties of GPC have been studied in several researches due to its importance and ability to solve the problems of ordinary Portland cement. GGBS, MK and Rice Husk Ash (RHA) was used as replacement to cement and binder in Geopolymer concrete. The specimens are cured at ambient temperature condition. Mechanical properties of the GPC mix specimens are studied for different time ages (7days, 21days and 28days) and the strengths of the specimens were determined. Alkaline Activator Solutions are prepared in the molarities of 8, 10.

Published: June 2020

The aim was to include new accessions of perennial leguminous and cereal grasses to the collection, to evaluate them in terms of a set of valuable morphological and economic features and to identify sources of these features for breeding.

Results and Discussion. The collections of gene pool accessions created due to introduction of cultivars and wild forms as well as breeding accessions identified during practical breeding serve as initial material for the breeding of red clover, alsike clover and cock's-foot in the Institute of Agriculture of the Carpathian Region. For the period of 2000-2017, 944 accessions of forage grasses registered in the Central Database were included in the collection: 405 legumes (red clover – 161, alsike clover – 11) and 539 cereals (cock's-foot – 145); 591 accessions were stored in the National Depository. In-depth studies of morphological and economic traits of the accessions allowed us to create and to register a basic collection of the forage grasses gene pool, a trait collection of red clover for yield and resistance to powdery mildew (it includes 52 accessions from 5 countries), a trait collection of cock's-foot for yield and resistance to unfavorable factors (49 accessions from 8 countries) and to register valuable red clover accession No. 193 and cock's-foot accession Drogobychanka Piznia with the NCPGRU. Based on the collection accessions, cultivars were created and included in the State Register of Plant Varieties Suitable for Dissemination in Ukraine: red clover Truskavchanka since 2016, alsike clover Prydnistrovska since 2002, cock's-foot Marichka since 2014. Since 2015, red clover cultivar Ukrainochka and cock's-foot cultivar Boikivchanka have been tested in the state scientific expert evaluation.

Conclusions. The creation of the genetic resource collection allowed us to study and analyze the genetic potential of the species, to identify initial material with valuable economical traits, which will significantly increase the efficiency of fodder grasses breeding.

The Role of Mobile Money in Moderating Financial Exclusion: A Tanzanian Experience
Authors: Mhella Deogratius Joseph
Published: June 2020

Prior to the advent of mobile money, the banking sector in most of the developing countries excluded certain segments of the population. The excluded populations were deemed as a risk to the banking sector. The banking sector did not work with cash stripped and the financially disenfranchised people. Financial exclusion persisted to incredibly higher levels. Those excluded did not have: bank accounts, savings in financial institutions, access to credit, loan and insurance services. The advent of mobile money moderated the very factors of financial exclusion that the banks failed to resolve. This paper explains how mobile money moderates the factors of financial exclusion that the banks and microfinance institutions have always failed to moderate. The paper seeks to answer the following research question: 'How has mobile money moderated the factors of financial exclusion that other financial institutions failed to resolve between 1960 and 2008? Tanzania has been chosen as a case study to show how mobile has succeeded in moderating financial exclusion in the period after 2008.

Authors: Prieto-Matienzo Laura , Gómez-Dos-Santos Victoria , Burgos-Revilla Francisco Javier
Published: June 2020

"Introducción: El trasplante renal de donante vivo representa la mejor opción terapéutica para los pacientes con Insuficiencia Renal Crónica Terminal (IRC). Sin embargo, la nefrectomía conlleva ciertos riesgos a corto y largo plazo para el donante vivo. En este estudio queremos evaluar el impacto de la donación sobre la función renal del donante.

Material y Métodos: Evaluamos retrospectivamente a los donantes vivos renales en el periodo comprendido entre 2010 y 2018 en el Hospital Universitario Ramón y Cajal. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo de la muestra y se usó el análisis de varianza (ANOVA) para comparar la edad y el IMC con el aclaramiento medido en los distintos momentos del tiempo. Así mismo, se realizó la curva de supervivencia de Kaplan-Meier en función del sexo para ver cuántos pacientes desarrollaban IRC post-nefrectomía.

Resultados: De los 39 pacientes, al año de la nefrectomía el 34,4% presentaron insuficiencia renal definida como un aclaramiento <60ml/min/1,73m2. Ningún paciente desarrolló IRCT. Los pacientes con mayor edad tuvieron un mayor deterioro de la función renal. No se demostró mayor deterioro de la función renal atendiendo al sexo y en los sujetos con IMC más alto.

Conclusiones: La edad parece ser un factor de riesgo para la IRC mientras que el IMC y el sexo en la población estudiada, no parece que provoquen un mayor riesgo en el deterioro de la tasa de filtrado glomerular."

Importancia de la integración e implementación de un Modelo de Gestión de Medicamentos en programas de Cooperación Internacional
Authors: Rodríguez San Miguel Paula , Roig Sanchís Neus
Published: June 2020

"La gestión de los medicamentos continúa siendo un reto en la mayoría de los países en vías de desarrollo, dónde no existen sistemas de gestión que garanticen la calidad/disponibilidad de los medicamentos, lo cual implica un grave impacto en la salud de la población atendida.

Es por ello muy importante disponer de un Modelo de Gestión de Medicamentos. Este modelo es un documento que sirve como referencia para organizar el trabajo en torno a los medicamentos y cubre todos los pasos involucrados en la gestión de los mismos; desde su compra hasta la utilización por parte del paciente y en su caso, su posterior eliminación regulada. Los documentos, protocolos y guías que serán parte de este modelo estarán siempre basados en estándares internacionales, principalmente de la OMS y/o otras organizaciones médicas con intensa experiencia en gestión de farmacias en Cooperación Internacional.

La integración e implementación de este modelo en los países donde se provee de asistencia humanitaria sanitaria, conseguirá una mejora en la calidad de la gestión farmacéutica, optimizando la disponibilidad de los medicamentos, la reducción de pérdidas y por ende, la optimización de recursos y mejora de la calidad en atención de pacientes."

Authors: Souza Luciana Silva dos Santos , Dos Santos Daniella Cristina Silva
Published: June 2020

O artigo apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa sobre os efeitos didáticos decorrentes da aplicação de uma sequência de atividades, extraída do livro didático de matemática, subsidiadas no contexto socioambiental (desflorestamento) para abordar os significados parte-todo e operador multiplicativo do número racional. A sequência didática foi aplicada com 46 estudantes do 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental (em uma escola pública municipal da Região Metropolitana do Recife). As análises dos resultados encontram respaldo na Teoria das Situações Didáticas e no uso dos contextos extramatemáticos. Ao final do processo concluímos que o uso da temática socioambiental como contexto, nas diferentes situações didáticas e a-didáticas, pode ser caracterizada como um pretexto, uma vez que não amplia os aspectos conceituais inerentes ao objeto matemático. Neste estudo de caso, constatamos que para solucionar os problemas, os estudantes se desvinculam do contexto e se apoiam no próprio repertório de conhecimentos para elaborar as estratégias de resolução.

Electromagnetic Side-Channel Attack on AES using Low-end Equipment
Authors: Hell Martin , Westman Oskar
Published: June 2020

Side-channel attacks on cryptographic algorithms targets the implementation of the algorithm. Information can leak from the implementation in several different ways and, in this paper, electromagnetic radiation from an FPGA is considered. We examine to which extent key information from an AES implementation can be deduced using a low-end oscilloscope. Moreover, we examine how the antenna's distance from the FPGA affects the results in this setting. Our experiments show that some key bits indeed can be inferred from the measurements, despite having a far from optimal setting.

An Appraisal of Select Pentecostal Women Fellowships in Nigeria in the Light of the Ethics of Care and Negofeminism
Authors: Wariboko Onyinyechi Priscilla Christian , Isichei Chizobam Ruth
Published: June 2020

The global proliferation of women fellowships in Pentecostalism calls for attention. This phenomenon though harmless has no outright scriptural backing and seemingly negates the idea of the church as one body in Christ. Using the phenomenological method of research this paper ethically examines the rationale behind women fellowships in Nigeria. This study hinges on the ethics of care and negofeminism as a theoretical basis for its qualitative analysis. While women fellowships are considered as avenues for women to express themselves without the intrusion of chauvinistic structures of society subtly existent in the church, it is criticized as a drastic reactive measure which is ‘unChristian’ and untypical of the African feminist. It is argued in this paper, that instead of using separatist tactics, Pentecostal women should explore benign ways of working with the men in parent churches while asserting themselves in ways that are not confrontational. It is also important for Christian vis-à-vis Pentecostal denominations to jettison the pervasive sexist hermeneutics which places women in a subordinate position and instead, emphasizes the non-discriminatory gifts of the Holy Spirit. This would strengthen interdependence and foster unity within the church.
Further Investigation on Chromospheric and Prominence Activity of the RS Canum Venaticorum Star SZ Piscium

Published: June 2020

To continue our study on chromospheric activity and detection for possible prominence events of the very active RS Canum Venaticorum star SZ Piscium (SZ Psc), long-term high-resolution spectroscopic observations were obtained during several observing runs from 2014 to 2018. Based on the spectral subtraction technique, the chromospheric emission of the Ca ii IRT (λ8662, λ8542, and λ8498), H
α
, Na i D1, D2 doublet, H
β
, and Ca ii H & K lines is mainly associated with the K1 IV primary star of the SZ Psc system, in good agreement with the previous studies, and the F8 V secondary star also shows some chromospheric emission, implying its active chromosphere. Moreover, an optical flare characterized by the He i D3 line emission together with stronger emission in the other indicators was detected. Furthermore, two chromospheric active longitudes around the two quadratures of the system were identified for most of the time, and the chromospheric activity shows significant changes during a few orbital cycles. The chromospheric activity level seems to show a long-term variation during our observations. There were some excess absorption features in the subtracted H
α
line and the other activity indicators, which would be caused by prominence-like materials associated with the K1 IV primary star of the system. Prominence materials could absorb the chromospheric emission and continuum from the K1 IV primary star and even the F8 V secondary one.
Jupiter in the Ultraviolet: Acetylene and Ethane Abundances in the Stratosphere of Jupiter from Cassini Observations between 0.15 and 0.19 μm
Authors: Melin Henrik , Fletcher L. N. , Irwin P. G. J. , Edgington S. G.
Published: June 2020

At wavelengths between 0.15 and 0.19 μm, the far-ultraviolet spectrum of Jupiter is dominated by the scattered solar spectrum, attenuated by molecular absorptions primarily by acetylene and ethane, and to a lesser extent ammonia and phosphine. We describe the development of our radiative transfer code that enables the retrieval of abundances of these molecular species from ultraviolet reflectance spectra. As a proof-of-concept we present an analysis of Cassini Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (UVIS) observations of the disk of Jupiter during the 2000/2001 flyby. The ultraviolet-retrieved acetylene abundances in the upper stratosphere are lower than those predicted by models based solely on infrared thermal emission from the mid-stratosphere observed by the Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS), requiring an adjustment to the vertical profiles above 1 mbar. We produce a vertical acetylene abundance profile that is compatible with both CIRS and UVIS, with reduced abundances at pressures <1 mbar: the 0.1 mbar abundances are 1.21 ± 0.07 ppm for acetylene and 20.8 ± 5.1 ppm for ethane. Finally, we perform a sensitivity study for the JUICE ultraviolet spectrograph, which has extended wavelength coverage out to 0.21 μm, enabling the retrieval of ammonia and phosphine abundances, in addition to acetylene and ethane.
Looking at Blazar Light-curve Periodicities with Gaussian Processes
Authors: Covino Stefano , Landoni Marco , Sandrinelli Angela , Treves Aldo
Published: June 2020

Temporal analysis of blazar flux is a powerful tool to draw inferences about the emission processes and physics of these sources. In the most general case, the available light curves are irregularly sampled and influenced by gaps, and in addition are also affected by correlated noise, making their analysis complicated. Gaussian processes may offer a viable tool to assess the statistical significance of proposed periods in light curves characterized by any sampling and noise pattern. We infer the significance of the periods proposed in the literature for two well known blazars with multiple claims of possible year-long periodicity: PG 1553 + 113 and PKS 2155–304, in the high-energy and optical bands. Adding a periodic component to the modeling gives a better statistical description of the analyzed light curves. The improvement is rather solid for PG 1553 + 113, both at high energies and in the optical, while for PKS 2155–304 at high energies the improvement is not yet strong enough to allow cogent claims, and no evidence for periodicity emerged from the analysis in the optical. Modeling a light curve by means of Gaussian processes, in spite of being relatively computationally demanding, allows us to derive a wealth of information about the data under study and suggests an original analysis framework for light curves of astrophysical interest.
