Authors:   , Faêda Leonardo Moreira
Published: May 2023

Este trabalho aborda o Thief Orienteering Problem, um problema multicomponente que combina dois problemas combinatórios conhecidos: o problema da mochila e o problema de orientação. Nesse problema, uma pessoa (denominada de ladrão) carrega uma mochila capacitada e possui um limite de tempo para coletar itens distribuídos em um conjunto de pontos. Os pontos de partida e chegada são fixos. O ladrão inicia sua trajetória com a mochila vazia e viaja com a velocidade inversamente proporcional ao peso da mochila. Enquanto tiver tempo, o ladrão pode passar pelos pontos coletando novos itens. O objetivo do problema é determinar qual rota e quais itens o ladrão deve coletar para maximizar o lucro da mochila. Dois métodos heurísticos baseados em metaheurísticas conhecidas são propostos para encontrar soluções boas que maximize o lucro obtido pelo ladrão em tempo hábil. O primeiro método heurístico é inspirado em algoritmos genéticos e os experimentos computacionais foram realizados com as instâncias de benchmark, a fim de comparar o desempenho do método desenvolvido com os algoritmos existentes na literatura. Os resultados mostraram que nosso método foi superior na maioria dos casos. Posteriormente uma novo método baseado na metaheurística de busca local iterada foi proposto e novos experimentos computacionais foram realizados. Os resultados mostraram que a abordagem superou os trabalhos existentes e o método inspirado em algoritmo genéticos em mais de 80% das instâncias do benchmark, com uma melhoria média de mais de 30%. Propomos também uma ampliação do problema para utilizar múltiplos ladrões. Nós descrevemos formalmente o problema apresentando uma formulação de programação não linear inteira mista e utilizamos adaptações dos métodos heurísticos propostos para gerar soluções iniciais para o problema. Os resultados mostram que, com a utilização de mais ladrões, o lucro total dos itens coletados aumentou em até 32% Palavras-chave: Metaheurísticas. Problemas Multicomponentes.

Published: May 2023

Neurosains dalam pendidikan, telah digabungkan menjadi "Neuroeducation". Minat yang semakin meningkat dalam pendidikan-otak di kalangan orang awam terutama pendidik telah menyebabkan peningkatan dalam mitos otak kerana mereka tidak mempunyai pengetahuan yang kukuh dalam neurosains dan susah bagi mereka untuk membezakan mitos dari fakta. Pada tahun 2002, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) memberi amaran tentang salah faham tentang otak di kalangan guru, melabelkan mereka sebagai mitos otak. Objektif utama di sini adalah untuk memerhatikan kelaziman mitos otak dalam pendidikan dan hubungan antara literasi neurosains dan amalan pengajaran guru. Sebanyak 501 responden dipilih dalam guru di Malaysia. Hasil analisis menunjukkan tiga mitos yang paling lazim di antara guru adalah persekitaran yang kaya dengan rangsangan meningkatkan otak murid prasekolah, individu belajar lebih baik apabila mereka menerima maklumat dalam gaya pembelajaran pilihan mereka (contohnya, auditori, visual, kinestetik) dan perbezaan dalam dominasi hemisfera (otak kiri, otak kanan) boleh membantu menjelaskan perbezaan individu dalam kalangan pelajar. Keputusan analisis mencerminkan kelaziman mitos otak dalam guru yang mempunyai minat terhadap neurosains dalam pendidikan. Sukar bagi guru untuk membezakan antara maklumat yang betul dan maklumat yang salah. Apabila guru tidak sabar untuk melaksanakan penemuan neurosainstifik, kekurangan kepakaran dalam neurosains dan mencari penyelesaian yang cepat dan mudah, mereka mungkin gagal membezakan fakta dan mitos dan menyebabkan salah faham.

Authors: Dr. Hina Farooq Kanth , Dr. Sandhya Kapoor Punia
Published: May 2023

Aim- The aim of this in-vitro study was to compare the effect of NaOCl, EDTA, Propolis and Distilled water on cyclic fatigue resistance of Protaper Gold rotary NiTi instruments.

Method- A total of 40 commercially available rotary (n =40) Ni-Ti files were used to assess the effect of different root canal irrigants on their cyclic fatigue resistance. The files were divided into four groups (n=10 per group) as Group 1- Distilled water (Control group), Group 2 – 5.25 % NaOCl, Group 3 -17% EDTA and Group 4 - Propolis. The instruments were rotated in custom-made stainless steel artificial canal (angle of 60˚and 5 mm radius), fixed in a glass container with irrigating solution until the instrument fractured. The time to fracture was registered for each instrument and the number of cycles to fracture (NCF) was calculated and statistical analysis was done.

Result- NiTi files used with Group 1 (Distilled water) exhibited best cyclic fatigue resistance (1386.50±37.12) amongst all the tested groups followed by Group 4 (Propolis) and Group 3 (EDTA). Group 2 (5.25 % NaOCl) showed least cyclic fatigue resistance (971.50 ± 48.879) compared to other groups (P>0.05).                                                                                

Conclusion- NiTi files exhibited best cyclic fatigue resistance when used with distilled water and NaOCl irrigating solution significantly deteriorated the surface characteristics and cyclic fatigue resistance of rotary NiTi files.
The Impact of Trainee Characteristics, Training Design, and Work Environment on the Transfer of Training: A Study of Executive Level Employees of a Selected Tea Manufacturing Company in Sri Lanka
Authors: E. Rebecca , Y. M. S. W. V. Sangarandeniya
Published: May 2023

The primary purpose of this study was to identify the factors affecting the Transfer of Training. The current study was designed to study three main factors: Trainee Characteristics, Training Design, and Work Environment which were identified as possible factors that influence the Transfer of Training. Standard questionnaires were used to collect primary data for the study. This is a cross-sectional study done in a non-contrived setting. The study respondents were the entire population of 105 executive-level employees who had attended training programs in the selected organization and the final sample was 88 executive-level employees. Descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, simple regression analysis, and multiple regression analysis were used to analyze the data. According to the results of correlation analysis, it was revealed that there is a positive relationship between all three independent variables (Trainee Characteristics, Training Design, and Work Environment) and the Transfer of Training. The results of simple regression analysis revealed that Trainee Characteristics, Training Design and Work Environment significantly and positively impact the Transfer of Training. Moreover, the multiple regression analysis results indicate that there is a significant impact of the Work Environment and Training Design on the Transfer of Training, compared to the influence of Trainee Characteristics. Therefore, this study suggests that organizations can successfully achieve the expected outcomes from their training programs by ensuring the transfer of training through proper designing of the training programs and improving factors related to the work environment. This study was carried out only on one organization that operates in the tea manufacturing industry in Sri Lanka, and future researchers can extend the scope of this study by investigating other industries and other country contexts.

Distribution and abundance of early Miocene foraminifera in the Qom Basin of Central Iran
Authors: Daneshian Jahanbakhsh , Dana Leila Ramezani
Published: May 2023

The Oligo-Miocene sediments of Central Iran were deposited in part of the Tethyan Seaway connecting the Mediterranean Sea (western Tethys) to the Indian Ocean (eastern Tethys). The Qom Formation sediments were deposited in the northeastern part of the Tethyan Seaway. For analyzing the depositional environments of the Qom Formation in the Tigheh Reza Abad section (type area of the Qom Formation) samples through 967 m thickness were studied which yielded 64 genera and 106 species of benthic and planktic foraminifera, including index species indicative of Aquitanian to Burdigalian age. Five faunal associations (I-V) are recognized on the basis of foraminiferal diversity and abundance. The faunal associations indicate different paleoenvironments along a gradient from inner to outer shelf in the warm, shallow-marine Qom Basin.
Multi-proxy record of ocean-climate variability during the last two millennia on the Mackenzie Shelf, Beaufort Sea

A 2,000 year-long oceanographic history, in sub-centennial resolution, from a Canadian Beaufort Sea continental shelf site (60meters water depth) near the Mackenzie River outlet is reconstructed from ostracode and foraminifera faunal assemblages, shell stable isotopes (delta 18O, delta 13C) and sediment biogenic silica. The chronology of three sediment cores making up the composite section was established using 137Cs and 210Pb dating for the most recent 150 years and combined with linear interpolation of radiocarbon dates from bivalve shells and foraminifera tests.Continuous centimeter-sampling of the multicore and high-resolution sampling of a gravity and piston core yielded a time-averaged faunal record of every approximately 40 years from 0 to 1850 CE and every approximately 24 years from 1850 to 2013 CE. Proxy records were consistent with temperature oscillations and related changes in organic carbon cycling associated with the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA) and the Little Ice Age (LIA). Abundance changes in dominant microfossil species, such as the ostracode Paracyprideis pseudopunctillata and agglutinated foraminifers Spiroplectammina biformis and S. earlandi, are used as indicators of less saline, and possibly corrosive/turbid bottom conditions associated with the MCA (approximately 800 to 1200 CE) and the most recent approximately 60 years (1950â€“2013). During these periods, pronounced fluctuations in these species suggest that prolonged seasonal sea-ice melting, changes in riverine inputs and sediment dynamics affected the benthic environment. Taxa analyzed for stable oxygen isotope composition of carbonates show the lowest delta 18O values during intervals within the MCA and the highest during the late LIA, which is consistent with a 1 degree to 2 degree C cooling of bottom waters. Faunal and isotopic changes during the cooler LIA (1300 to 1850 CE) are most apparent at approximately 1500 to 1850 CE and are particularly pronounced during 1850 to approximately 1900 CE, with an approximate 0.5 per mil increase in delta 18O values of carbonates from median values in the analyzed taxa. This very cold 50-year period suggests that enhanced summer sea ice suppressed productivity,which is indicated by low sediment biogenic silica values and lower delta 13C values in analyzed species. From 1900CE to present, declines in calcareous faunal assemblages and changes in dominant species (Cassidulina reniforme and P. pseudopunctillata) are associated with less hospitable bottom waters, indicated by a peak in agglutinated foraminifera from 1950 to 1990 CE.
Adnexal torsion in childhood and adolescence

Published: May 2023

The incidence of adnexal torsion in childhood and adolescence is 4.9 per 100,000 girls. Torsion of the adnexa is caused by rotation of the ovary usually with the fallopian tube around the infundibulopelvic ligament. The torsion leads primarily to the interruption of both venous outflow and lymphatic drainage. It causes enlargement of the ovary due its edema with occurrence of hemorrhagic infarctions. Interruption of the arterial inflow leads finally to the necrosis of ovarian tissue. Torsion of the adnexa in childhood occurs usually in enlarged ovary, particularly by a cyst, or when the non-enlarged ovary is excessively mobile due to the extended infundibulopelvic ligament. The characteristic clinical symptoms of adnexal torsion are sudden pain in the lower abdomen with nausea and vomiting. The diagnosis of adnexal torsion is based on the typical symptoms, clinical course, and the results of physical and ultrasound examinations. Torsion of the adnexa should be considered in every girl with sudden abdominal pain. To preserve reproductive functions, an early surgery with detorsion of the adnexa should be performed. Key words: adnexal torsion – ovarian torsion – acute abnominal pain – laparoscopy – puberty

Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of severe fear of childbirth in a group of pregnant women, to determine the risk factors, and to prove the impact of the fear of childbirth on various obstetrics outcomes in this group. Materials and methods: The study population consists of pregnant women who gave birth at the 2nd Gynecology and Obstetrics Department of the Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University and University Hospital Bratislava, from January 1st, 2022, until April 31st, 2022. After signing an informed consent, the pregnant women were given a Slovak version of the Wijma Delivery Expectancy Questionnaire (S-WDEQ), which is a psychometric tool to evaluate the prevalence of severe fear of childbirth. They were given the S-WDEQ during the 36th and 38th week of gestational age. The childbirth data were collected from the hospital information system after the delivery of the baby. Results and conclusion: The studied group consists of 453 pregnant women who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Extreme fear of childbirth was identified using S-WDEQ in 10.6% (48) of them. Level of education and age were not considered to be significant predictors of fear of childbirth. Statistically significant difference was not found in terms of the age groups and groups with different levels of education. At the edge of the statistical significance were primiparas, who made up 60.4% (RR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.00–1.68; P = 0.0525) of all women with severe fear of childbirth. Women with a history of cesarean section were significantly more frequent in the group of women with serious concerns about childbirth (RR: 3.83; 95% CI: 1.56–9.40; P = 0.0033). Women who gave birth by cesarean section due to the indication of non-progressive labour were also more often represented in the group of women with serious concerns about childbirth (RR: 3.01; 95% CI: 1.07–8.42; P = 0.0358). A higher S-WDEQ score at the 36th week of gestational age in a group of primiparous women increased the statistical probability of cesarean delivery (P = 0.0030). The statistical results are not showing the impact of fear of childbirth on the induction success and the duration of the first stage of labour in primiparous women. The fear of childbirth prevalence is relatively high and it has impact on the outcome of childbirth. The use of a validated questionnaire as a screening tool to search for women with childbirth fear could positively influence their concerns by following psychoeducational interventions in clinical care settings. Key words: fear of childbirth – tocophobia – W-DEQ – fear – anxiety – psychometrics – cesarean section

About 150 of these patients received bupivacaine infiltration on both sides close to the anterior superior iliac spine, and 150 received a normal saline injection at the same locations. Results: The study compared the two groups and discovered significant differences in the timing of analgesic requests, interval before the patient’s first ambulation, length of hospital stay, postoperative pain score, and incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, with group A performing better. Conclusion: After a caesarean section, the local anaesthetic “bupivacaine” injection used to block the ilioinguinal nerves bilaterally is an efficient way to lessen postoperative discomfort and analgesic use. Key words: ilioinguinal nerve block – bupivacaine – pain – caesarean delivery

This project based on Charging Electric Cars from Solar Energy was carried out at the Bharati Vidyapeeth Institute of Technology . Presently, developing new types of energy conversion and storage systems is becoming evident because of increasing human population and thus greater reliance on energy-based devices for survival. Due to the rapid increase in the world population and economic expansion geometrically, this is bringing about rapidly diminishing fossil fuels and the continuously growing environmental concerns as greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore with the technological advancements in this modern era, more electronic devices are being used to replace manpower thus leading to a further increase in energy consumption. Energy obtained from the suns radiations when in contact with the earth’s atmosphere and or surface as irradiances is called solar energy

the importance of security in the authentication process as well as the increase in threat level posed by such malware has attracted many researchers to the field. Many attacks are successful in accessing social network accounts since the current password-based authentication paradigms are not efficient and robust enough as well as vulnerable to automated attacks. The traditional two-factor authentication mechanisms are not applicable to online social networks because physical token or biometric data cannot be easily used to log into users’ profiles. The simplest alternative is complementing the single factor (password-based) authentication process with additional identification elements, such as one-time PIN codes, generated by the user’s own device (e.g. the smart phone) or received via SMS. Proposed a brightness based authentication mechanism (i.e., Bright Pass) capable of enhancing the security of identity confirmation PIN codes without asking the user to memorize an additional secret value or to solve a complex cognitive task. This method introduces a new input value that is changed at every usage combining a something you know element (i.e., the PIN) with an interface element that cannot be captured by spyware, i.e., a bright or dark circle displayed on the phone screen to tell the user when to digit the correct PIN digit and when to digit a fake one. It prevents the malware from correctly inserting the PIN code, thereby disallowing the possibility to perform critical operations without the user’s agreement. Proposed work also focuses on implementing secure face recognition approach for user authentication. This approach will enhance the performance of ATM system

One of the pepper crop production obstacles is the presence of pests. The research was designed in a randomized block with three treatments, namely (1) botanical pesticides, (2) biological pesticides and (3) control (water), and nine replications. The treatment application is carried out once a month, done immediately after observing the intensity of the pest attack. The results showed that the attack of pepper stem borer was low (below 10%), so the effect of the treatment could not be seen significantly. The Thrips attack was high enough, it was seen that there was the ability of botanical pesticides to reduce the intensity of the attack. Meanwhile, the biological pesticide had not yet shown its ability to reduce the intensity of Thrips sp.

An experimental investigation is carried out to study the behaviour of cement mortar using red soil partially replaced with p-sand (plastering sand). In this study, cement mortar of mix proportion 1:4 using red soil is partially replaced with p-sand as 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%. Compressive strength test, water absorption test, sorptivity test and acid immersion test are conducted to determine the properties of the cement mortar. The results show that the partial replacement of red soil with p-sand improves the compressive strength and reduces water absorption and sorptivity. Additionally, the acid immersion test revealed that the cement mortar with partial replacement of red soil with p-sand is more resistant to acidic conditions. This study provides insights into the potential use of p-sand as a partial replacement of red soil in cement mortar production, particularly for plastering purposes

La crianza es un proceso socializador en el que se brindan cuidados a la niñez. Las prácticas que se despliegan en la crianza están entrecruzadas con las creencias y pautas culturales, por lo que la crianza tiene una condicionante socio-histórica. Ante los importantes cambios sociales de las últimas décadas, la presente investigación tiene por objeto conocer las creencias y pautas culturales que median actualmente el ejercicio de crianza de padres y madres. Se partió de la Teoría de las Representaciones Sociales, con un enfoque mixto. Se realizaron 8 entrevistas, 22 asociaciones forzadas y 80 asociaciones libres a madres/padres con hijos(as) de 3 a 6 años de edad. Se realizó un análisis multidimensional en las respuestas a las asociaciones libres/forzadas, y las entrevistas se analizaron con Teoría Fundamentada. Encontramos que la crianza tiene como núcleo central el “amor”, fuertemente asociado con cuidar, escuchar y jugar, así como con la paciencia y la confianza. La experiencia de su propia crianza tiene fuerte influencia en las pautas culturales que reproducen padres y madres.

El delito de malversación de caudales públicos del artículo 432 del Código Penal y su dificultad actual para luchar de forma práctica contra la corrupción
Authors: Rodríguez de la Riva Ignacio
Published: May 2023

En el ordenamiento jurídico español el tipo básico penal de la lucha contra la corrupción es el delito de prevaricación, si bien no es tan importante a efectos de punición como otros tipos penales que le acompañan, en especial el delito de malversación, el fraude o el cohecho, a diferencia de otros ordenamientos en los que existe un tipo genérico de delito de corrupción. Esta diversidad de tipos no ayuda a una lucha eficaz contra el fenómeno endémico de la corrupción, no tanto por la dificultad de insertar hechos punibles en tipos, sino sobre todo por la falta de una prevención general real y la dificultad de restituir los efectos económicos del delito, existiendo en la sociedad española no solo la percepción de que la corrupción existe en todos los estamentos, sino que las conductas corruptas salen a cuenta por no ser adecuadamente sancionadas. España tiene el reto de mejorar sus normas penales y la aplicación de las mismas para que tales percepciones cambien sustancialmente en los próximos años. Para ello el presente artículo analiza la configuración actual del delito de malversación, la problemática en su aplicación por los tribunales, descendiendo a la práctica forense reciente, y propone modificaciones de lege ferenda que permitan terminar con esta lacra.
