A Novel Numerical Scheme for Fractional Bernoulli Equations and the Rössler Model: A Comparative Analysis using Atangana-Baleanu Caputo Fractional Derivative
Authors: Boulehmi Kaouther
Published: February 2024

This study aims to use a novel scheme for the Atangana-Baleanu Caputo fractional derivative (ABC-FD) to solve the fractional Bernoulli equation and the fractional R ̈ossler model. Furthermore, the suggested technique is compared to Runge-Kutta Fourth Order (RK4). The proposed method is efficacious and generates solutions that are indistinguishable from the approx-imate solutions generated by the RK4 method. Therefore, we can adapt the approach to various systems and develop results that are more accurate. On top of that, the new technique (ABC-FD) can identify chaotic situations. Consequently, this approach can be used to enhance the performance of other systems. In the future, this technique can be employed to determine the numerical solution for a multitude of models applicable in the fields of science and engineering.
A Spectral Collocation Method for Solving Caputo-Liouville Fractional Order Fredholm Integro-differential Equations
Authors: Saad Khaled , Khirallah Mustafa
Published: February 2024

In this paper, a numerical method for solving the fractional order Fredholm integro-differential equations via the Caputo-Liouville derivative is presented. The method uses the well-known shifted Chebyshev expansion and a truncated series to represent the unknown function. It also incorporates numerical integration techniques like the Trapezoidal, Simpson’s 1/3, and Simpson’s 8/3 methods. The paper also provides an approximation for the derivative of an integer. The procedure converts the provided problem into a system of algebraic equations using shifted Chebyshev coefficients and collocation points. The coefficients are found by solving this system using well-known techniques like Newton’s method. Numerical results are presented graphycally to illustrate the applicability, efficacy, and accuracy of the approach presented in this work. All calculations in this study were performed using the MATHEMATICA software program.
Utilization of the Modified Adomian Decomposition Method on the Bagley-Torvik Equation Amidst Dirichlet Boundary Conditions
Authors: Al-Mazmumy Mariam , Alsulami Mona
Published: February 2024

The Bagley-Torvik equation is an imperative differential equation that considerably arises in various branches of mathematical physics and mechanics. However, very few methods exist for the treatment of the model analytically; in fact, researchers frequently shop for semi-analytical and numerical methods in their studies. Therefore, the main goal of this research is to find theexact analytical solution for the fractional Bagley-Torvik equation fitted with Dirichlet boundary data, as well as a system of fractional Bagley-Torvik equations. Thus, this research aims to show that the modified Adomian decomposition method (MADM) via the proposed two algorithms is a very effective method for treating a class of Bagley-Torvik equations endowed with Dirichletboundary data. Certainly, MADM is a very powerful approach for solving dissimilar functional equations without the need for either linearization, discretization, perturbation, or even unnecessary restraining postulations. Additionally, the method reveals exact analytical solutions whenever obtainable or closed-form series solutions whenever exact solutions are not feasible. Lastly, some illustrative test problems of the governing model are examined to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithms.
On the Construction of a Groupoid from an Ample Hausdorff Groupoid with Twisted Steinberg Algebra not Isomorphic to its Non-twisted Steinberg Algebra
Authors: Bongcawel Rizalyn , Cabardo Lyster Rey , Petalcorin Jr Gaudencio , Vilela Jocelyn
Published: February 2024

This study introduces an ample Hausdorff groupoid $\hat{A} \rtimes \mathcal{R}$ extracted from an ample Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ and a unital commutative ring $R$; a Hausdorff groupoid $D$ which is the discrete twist over $\hat{A} \rtimes \mathcal{R}$. In the groupoid C*-algebra perspective, when $R = \mathbb{C}$ there is an isomorphism between the non-twisted groupoid C*-algebra $(C^*(\mathcal{G}))$ and the twisted groupoid C*-algebra $(C^*(\hat{A} \rtimes \mathcal{R};D))$. However, in this paper, in a purely algebraic setting, the non-twisted Steinberg algebra $(A_R(\mathcal{G}))$ and the twisted Steinberg algebra $(A_R(D; \hat{A} \rtimes \mathcal{R}))$ are non-isomorphic.

Authors:   , Lopes Kelya Freire , Sousa Neto João Antonio de
Published: February 2024

Resumo
A penetração de água emerge como o principal meio pelo qual a água adentra uma estrutura de concreto armado ao ar livre. Nesse contexto, é possível considerar que esse fenômeno desempenha um papel crucial, configurando-se como um fator substancial que contribui para a sustentação e preservação da durabilidade do concreto armado. No campo da construção civil, existem diversos aditivos disponíveis voltados para a impermeabilização do concreto. No entanto, permanece incerto se tais aditivos são verdadeiramente eficazes. No Brasil, o método tradicional de construção ainda é amplamente utilizado, tornando estudos nessa área tanto válidos quanto indispensáveis para a obtenção de um conhecimento mais aprofundado.Este estudo tem como objetivo comparar a eficácia dos aditivos impermeabilizantes no concreto, utilizando o ensaio de absorção de água. A metodologia incluiu pesquisa bibliográfica para embasar teoricamente o estudo, seguida por uma pesquisa qualitativa com ensaio laboratorial na Faculdade Lucino Feijão em Sobral-CE. Foram conduzidos dois ensaios neste estudo: o primeiro para determinação da consistência pelo abatimento do tronco de cone, conforme regulamentado pela NBR NM 67:1998, e o segundo para absorção de água por sucção capilar, conforme regulamentado pela NBR 9779:1995.Foram preparados seis corpos de prova com uma composição de concreto base, sendo adicionado aditivo químico em dois deles, mantendo dois com concreto convencional e substituindo parte do cimento por sílica ativa em outros dois. Essas amostras foram divididas para ensaios realizados com 24 e 72 horas. Os resultados indicam que o aditivo químico demonstrou sua eficiência, apresentando valores de apenas 0,10 g/cm2 para amostras com 24 horas e 0,114 g/cm2 para amostras com 72 horas. As amostras com sílica ativa mostraram resultados mais expressivos, alcançando valores de 0,430 g/cm2 para amostras com 24 horas e 0,492 g/cm2 para amostras com 72 horas. Este achado foi surpreendente, considerando a sílica como um impermeabilizante comum, indicando a necessidade de estudos mais aprofundados sobre sua eficácia e aplicação.

Authors: Bhardwaj Tina Neelesh , Phani MN
Published: February 2024

With the increase in incidence and prevalence of myeloid neoplasms in India, it has become a necessity to understand its molecular mechanisms, acquisition of genomic alterations, and understand its primary and secondary resistance pathways which ultimately impact the decision of therapeutics. The objective of this review is to investigate the molecular aspects of this disease type and identify the biomarkers that help with diagnosis, risk assessment, prognosis, and selecting the best line of treatment for a specific myeloid neoplasm. Advancements and innovations in molecular technologies from simplest Real-Time PCR to high throughput next-generation sequencing have played a vital role in screening the most common mutations and fusions to the novel and rare. Molecular technologies have helped to enumerate the genomic landscape of myeloid malignancies. The understanding of both- the mechanisms and the technology is a strong combination as it has helped revolutionize precision oncology and helped in giving better therapeutic choices with better clinical outcomes. The importance of cellular morphology, clinical symptoms, and molecular pathology in assessing the risk of myeloid malignancies is emphasized and summarized in the review. The review concludes that understanding molecular pathogenesis can be improved by using clinical-pathological-molecular strategies for diagnosis and therapy decision-making.
Experimental and simulation study on active vibration control of rotating machines using coconut-husk fiber composite
Authors: Rafiu O. Kuku  , Sunday S. Oladapo  , Nurudeen A. Raji
Published: February 2024

Vibrations may reduce the quality of products because of “chatter” during drilling operation, which may cause dimensional inaccuracy of drilled holes, poor surface finish, assembly, and operational problems. This therefore calls for the need for vibration absorbers or dampers. The drilling machine considered in this research was the MODIGS RBM 28B Radial Arm Drill. The vibrations during drilling operation of this machine were measured with the use of a Vibration Meter. This experiment was carried out on different metal workpieces which vary in their toughness and hardness; hence, the drilling machine was expected to vibrate with different amplitudes and frequency for these different metals. In this experiment, Coconut Fibre was successfully simulated. The success was measured from how much of displacement the simulated coconut fiber composite absorbed and dampen down, keeping the machine to work at its optimum performance without excessive vibration, which normally could result to failure of machine components poor surface finish, and dimensional inaccuracy of holes.
Inclusive learning and development practices for children with autism spectrum disorders and the ICT’s role
Authors: Eleni Karagianni  , Anna Maria Driga
Published: February 2024

Nowadays, the inclusive orientation of education has promoted the inalienable right of all children, including those with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), to be educated in mainstream schools alongside their typically developing (TD) peers. The autism spectrum includes developmental disorders that appear in early childhood and are characterized by qualitative deficits in social communication and adaptive behavior, impeding academic learning and social-emotional development. The aim of this paper is to study those practices that form the conditions for realizing the functional inclusion of ASD children in the traditional classroom. For this reason, through the literature review of modern foreign language scientific articles, an attempt was made to search and study the most widespread and research-documented intervention procedures and techniques, which develop the readiness skills of ASD children, providing them with quality opportunities for active learning and socialization alongside their TD peers. The results showed that when the earlier targeted educational approaches are used in the inclusive classroom, in a structured and predictable learning environment, taking into account their unique characteristics, interests and assessed educational needs, with the support of adequately trained teachers and an interdisciplinary team, in cooperation with the family, their dynamic involvement in the activities of the school program is facilitated. Furthmore, quality interactions with their TD peers are increased and therefore, the appearance of socially acceptable behaviors is promoted, which contributes to their acceptance by their classmates, laying the foundations for their smooth integration into society.

Published: February 2024

Nimesulide has been used versatile on fever, pain, inflammation, rheumatoid arthritis, tendinitis, thrombophlebitis and trauma. Common drawbacks of conventional tablet dosage forms of nimesulide show an irritant effect on the stomach due to its weakly acidic nature along it has short duration of action leading to poor bioavailability. A Floating drug delivery system for Nimesulide leads to overcoming the problem related to an irritant on the stomach by avoiding direct contact with the mucosa. Thus, this study was designed and performed to formulate and evaluate the floating tablet of Nimesulide and determine the release pattern of the prepared formulation. Tablets were prepared by direct compression method using different polymers (HPMC, carbopol, and guar gum), either in an individual or in combination. The formulation blend was subjected to various pre-formulation and post-formulation studies including floating lag time, total floating time, hardness, friability, drug content, weight uniformity, and in-vitro dissolution. According to pre- pre-formulation study, the flow property was found to be good to passable. Similarly, all post-compression parameters of floating tablets were found to be within acceptable limits except the friability test of F1 and F2 formulations. The tablet’s floating lag time was determined to be in the range of 7-153.5 seconds, and the total floating time was in the range of 4-7 hrs. From the data of dissolution, carbopol showed a slower release of drugs than that of HPMC and guar gum. The use of carbopol as a floating polymer showed release of drugs from dosage form was 84.46% in 7 hrs and 99.10% in 3 hrs with the use of HPMC, 96.39% in 4 hrs with the use of guar gum. A combination of HPMC and guar gum released drugs in a slow release of drugs only for 3 hrs i.e. 98.02% in 3 hrs, the combination of carbopol and HPMC slowly released drugs for 6 hrs i.e. 90.43% in 6 hrs, and the combination of carbopol and guar gum showed maximum slow release of drugs for greater than 7 hrs i.e.74.16% in 7hrs. Hence, among all the formulations, F7 with the combination of carbopol and guar gum as polymer showed a maximum slowed release effect for greater than 7 hrs, which can be taken as the best batch.

Authors: Vimla Soni  , Priyadarshani R. Kamble
Published: February 2024

The abstract discusses the development and validation of a Related Substance RP-HPLC method for the simultaneous estimation of Rilpivirine and Dolutegravir in a combined pharmaceutical dosage form, following their FDA approval for HIV treatment. The developed method utilized a simple and economical approach, employing an LC-20 AT C18 column with a Water:Methanol (70:30) mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 ml/min, and detection at 258 nm. Retention times for Rilpivirine and Dolutegravir were determined to be 3.82 min and 7.51 min, respectively, while Rilpivirine and Dolutegravir impurity retention times were found to be 4.32 min and 7.12 min, respectively. The method demonstrated excellent linearity for Rilpivirine impurity (5.0-15.0 μg/ml) and Dolutegravir impurity (7.5-22.5 μg/ml). Limits of detection (LOD) were 0.079μg/ml and 0.145μg/ml for Rilpivirine and Dolutegravir impurities, while limits of quantification (LOQ) were 0.241μg/mL and 0.441μg/mL, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied for the simultaneous estimation of both drugs and their related impurities in a commercial combined dosage form.

Published: February 2024

Each year just before the New Year, our hometown library—the Helsinki Metropolitan Area Library Network (Helmet 2024)—issues a curated 50-book reading challenge. To celebrate a new year, Suomen antropologi: Journal of the Finnish Anthropological Society, presents an ethnographic reading challenge in a similar style. The challenge is an outcome of one recent Friday evening when we—middle-aged neighbours and colleagues who did not know what else to do with our free time—went for a walk to our local library. Woven into this reading challenge is a bid for something more. The categories in this challenge purposely extend across broad, or ambiguous, categories, at times bordering on the downright silly. Our intention is to encourage thoughtful reading of ethnographies and other books that inspire our ethnographic imaginations.

Indonesian Exegetists and Multiculturalism: Study about Hamka and Muhammad Quraish Shihab’s Idea on Multiculturalism
Authors: Abdillah Syaik , Rusli Ris’an
Published: February 2024

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the idea of multiculturalism from the views of two Indonesian figures, Hamka and Quraish Shihab. Dawam Rahardjo (2010) argues that the principle of multiculturalism in Indonesia has not been properly understood because it is littered with mutual suspicion and concern, especially among majority and minority groups. In real terms, the idea of multiculturalism has not been received by Muslims in general. Firmly, the MUI and Kisdi (Indonesian Committee for Islamic World Solidarity) reject pluralism (2005); Multiculturalism as a pluralistic perspective is not only about recognizing and respecting the plurality of realities but also paying attention to aspects of interaction and the existence of each culture as equal entities. Based on the author's observations, the Qur'an contains many verses that can be used as a basis for building cooperation, mutual respect, tolerance and appreciation, a willingness to accept diversity, reconciliation between people, and peaceful coexistence between cultural groups, based on the principle of justice and equality,  and others multiculturalism principles. The methods used in this article are the content analysis method and the comparative method. Furthermore, this research uses historical and sociological approaches.
Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membahas tentang gagasan multikulturalisme dari pandangan dua tokoh Indonesia, yaitu Hamka dan Quraish Shihab.  Dawam Rahardjo (2010), melihat bahwa prinsip multikulturalisme di Indonesia belum dipahami secara benar, karena dikotori oleh sikap saling curiga dan kekhawatiran, terutama kelompok mayoritas dan minoritas. Secara riel, gagasan tentang multikulturalisme belum mendapat penerimaan yang memadai dari umat Islam pada umumnya. Secara tegas, MUI dan Kisdi (Komite Indonesia untuk Solidaritas Dunia Islam) menolak paham pluralisme (2005);  Multikulturalisme sebagai cara pandang kemajemukan bukan hanya sekedar mengakui dan menghormati kemajemukan realitas, tapi juga  memperhatikan aspek interaksi dan keberadaan setiap kebudayaan  sebagai entitas yang setara dan memiliki hak yang setara pula di tengah masyarakat. Berdasarkan pengamatan penulis, Al-Qur’an banyak memuat ayat yang bisa dijadikan asas untuk membangun kerjasama, saling menghormati, toleransi dan penghargaan, kesediaan untuk menerima keragaman, rekonsilidasi antarmanusia, dan hidup berdampingan secara damai antarkelompok budaya, berdasarkan prinsip keadilan, kesetaraan, dan prinsip multikulturalisme lainnya. Metode yang akan digunakan dalam penyusunan artikel ini adalah metode analisis isi (content analysis)dan metode komparatif. Lebih lanjut, penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan historis dan sosiologis.

Justicia Law Firm & Associates menyimpan semua dokumen digital termasuk yang bersifat rahasia pada network file sharing dengan protokol Server Message Block (SMB). Menyebarnya ancaman WannaCry Ransomware pada tahun 2017 menyebabkan protokol SMB menjadi kurang aman, oleh sebab itu data perlu disimpan menggunakan enkripsi agar lebih aman. Metode yang digunakan adalah Rivest Cipher 4 (RC4) dan Base64 sebagai encode/decode. Pada penelitian ini dihasilkan sistem enkripsi menggunakan metode RC4 dan Base64 sebagai solusi dari permasalahan keamanan data Justicia Law Firm & Associates. Sistem enkripsi mendukung hampir semua ekstensi yang umum digunakan untuk dokumen perusahaan oleh Justicia Law Firm & Associates, yaitu .xlsx, .xls, .doc, .docx, .zip, .rar, .pdf, .jpg, .jpeg, dan .png. Karena menggunakan basis web, maka sistem ini dapat diakses menggunakan sistem operasi apapun selama memiliki GUI (Graphical User Interface) dan akses internet. File yang dienkripsi mengalami peningkatan ukuran sebesar 33% karena melalui proses encoding Base64, dan setelah didekripsi ukuran file menjadi semula seperti file asli.

Penelitian ini memfokuskan pada pengembangan sebuah aplikasi inovatif berbasis jaringan saraf tiruan untuk mendukung pembelajaran karakter Hiragana dalam konteks pembelajaran bahasa Jepang. Kurangnya alat bantu pembelajaran yang efisien dan interaktif dalam memahami karakter Hiragana menjadi kendala utama, dan untuk mengatasi masalah ini, kami mengusulkan sebuah aplikasi yang menggunakan jaringan saraf tiruan. Konsep dasar jaringan saraf tiruan, yang mirip dengan fungsi otak manusia, memungkinkan aplikasi ini untuk mengklasifikasikan karakter Hiragana dengan akurasi tinggi. Pengembangan aplikasi melibatkan langkah-langkah seperti pengumpulan dataset karakter Hiragana yang sudah diberi label, preprocessing data, pemilihan dan konfigurasi arsitektur jaringan saraf tiruan, serta pelatihan dan evaluasi model. Hasil pengujian menggunakan tiga optimizer (Adam, SGDM, dan RMSP) menunjukkan performa yang baik, dengan akurasi di atas 87% dan nilai F1-score mencapai 95% dengan penggunaan optimizer Adam. Disarankan untuk menggunakan optimizer Adam dalam pengembangan model ini. Untuk penelitian mendatang, peningkatan jumlah data pelatihan dan eksplorasi hyperparameter lainnya perlu dipertimbangkan guna meningkatkan performa model secara signifikan. Hasil penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan solusi efektif dalam memperkaya pengalaman pembelajaran bahasa Jepang, terutama dalam memahami karakter-karakter Hiragana dengan lebih efisien.

Studi ini mengevaluasi efektivitas metode watermarking dalam menyembunyikan informasi rahasia pada citra digital menggunakan Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) dan Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). Pendekatan ini penting untuk menjaga keamanan dan hak cipta dalam era digital. Penggunaan DCT memungkinkan penyematan watermark tanpa mengorbankan kualitas visual citra. Hasil evaluasi menggunakan Mean Squared Error (MSE) menunjukkan bahwa citra Lena.bmp mencapai nilai MSE terendah pada Level 1 dengan 0.075, sementara Peppers.png memiliki nilai MSE terendah pada Level 1 dengan 0.0083, dan Baboon.jpg pada Level 1 dengan 0.0097. Pada sisi lain, hasil evaluasi menggunakan Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) menunjukkan bahwa nilai PSNR tertinggi tercatat pada Level 1 untuk ketiga citra dengan nilai 48.17 dB. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa metode watermarking yang diterapkan menggunakan DCT dan SVD berhasil dalam menyematkan informasi rahasia pada citra digital dengan tingkat preservasi kualitas yang tinggi.
