Impact of Talent Management Practices on Turnover Intention of IT Professionals
Authors: Naveen Negi
Published: May 2023

Several academics from both industry and academia have taken an interest in the field of Talent Management because of the high attrition rate and fierce rivalry for the recruitment of brilliant and qualified individuals. The past two decades have seen Talent Management emerge as the dominant approach to directing an organization's human resources. Attrition rates have been on the rise despite companies' best efforts to pursue various approaches in People Management. The rising number of employee departures is a major problem for businesses nowadays. In this research, we looked at how Talent Management techniques (namely, Talent Identification and Organizational Career Management) affect employees' propensity to leave their current companies. Companies are trying to differentiate themselves via creative Talent Management techniques, but the competition for talent and the scarcity of competent experts make it difficult for any one company to hold on to its most productive employees.

Authors: Mayank Nautiyal
Published: May 2023

Preventative measures, on-the-ground administration, trauma centers, and follow-up treatment are all crucial parts of the system that has to be modeled. With the help of road safety initiatives, stricter enforcement of speed limits, and better road design, we can reduce the number of preventable accidents. Maintaining order at the site of an accident is a top priority for in-place management, which aims to protect motorists and pedestrians while keeping the scene clear of danger. Accident victims who are treated in trauma centers should be given priority in receiving prompt, professional medical attention. Finally, the post-trauma care component should address the effects of the event on individuals, families, and communities via long-term care, such as rehabilitation and mental health assistance.

A Study on Factors Influencing Indian Equity Investment Managers' Decision-Making Process
Authors: Ajay Sharma
Published: May 2023

Humans have been setting aside a portion of their income today to save for future expenses since the beginning of time. Until around four centuries ago, the most common ways to store money were in the form of land, animals, and precious metals. The rise of the banking and capital market sectors greatly expanded the range of possibilities. Mutual Funds are becoming more popular among Indians as a means of investing in the stock market. But, investors still don't know how a fund management makes decisions. In addition, most of the academic studies on this topic focus only on the US market and rely heavily on quantitative evidence. The purpose of this survey was to systematically investigate the influence different variables have on the investment choices made by Indian mutual fund managers.

A Study on Employee Career Stage and Retention Tactics in the Corporate Sector
Authors: Anuj Thapliyal
Published: May 2023

The loss of brilliant workers to competing businesses is the biggest problem confronting modern companies due to the liberalization of the market. As the need for qualified professionals grows and the traditional career path gives way to one that is more fluid and dynamic, workers have less loyalty to their current employers and are more willing to go elsewhere if their requirements are not being met. Businesses may reduce employee turnover by designing retention strategies that cater to workers' wants and requirements. Keeping in mind the significance of the connection between retention tactics and the stage of an employee's career, this research was conceived.

The loss of two Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, their 346 passengers and crew in 2018 and 2019 stunned the aerospace community and the flying public.  There is a natural inclination after an aviation mishap to ask, “What if…?”  What if latent design flaws in the system had been found earlier?  What if the aircrew had taken different steps in handling the non-normal events?  What if the B-737 MAX certification by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had been handled more rigorously?  This paper will re-examine the antecedent events leading up to the mishaps through a counterfactual lens to envision how the two tragedies could have been avoided.  Throughout the paper observations based on our combined 120+ years of aerospace, engineering and risk management experience will be offered to readers.
Superstack Nostalgia
Authors: King Adam D. K.
Published: May 2023

The growth of industrial tourism and heritage has both fascinated and frustrated scholars of deindustrialization. Frequently, workers and class conflict are obscured in or expunged from the official narratives of industrial heritage. This article makes an original contribution to research on deindustrialization and industrial heritage through fieldwork in Sudbury, Ontario – a region that has seen a decades-long process of industrial restructuring. The article draws on 26 qualitative interviews with current and retired nickel miners and analyzes workers’ reflections on local mining history. It examines how workers understand the foreign takeover of the mines, job loss, and the transformation of Sudbury’s regional economy away from blue-collar industrial employment. The article then explores the growth of regional tourism based around the mining sector, looking particularly at Dynamic Earth, an attraction that teaches visitors about the history of nickel mining through guided tours of a closed mine. On the one hand, workers critique what they see as an obfuscation of class conflict in industrial heritage, while on the other hand, they experience these sites as confirmation of the historic contributions nickel miners have made to Sudbury and the surrounding region.
The Third Woman – A brief reflection based on the character Kate Foster from the series Workin' Moms
Authors: Oliveira Eliane dos Santos Macedo , Schoeder Tânia Maria Rechia
Published: May 2023

Scholars of postmodernity point out that they live in fluid and polysemic times in which each person is invited to explore a multiplicity of experiences, to share intentions and to live according to their interests. The woman, for example, according to Lipovestsky (2000) ceases to occupy the singular role of housewife, provider of affections and expressive image of mothering, which would be characteristics that would define the first and second woman, and would start to walk a dissociated path of the prerogatives of masculinity, to choose their positions in the world of work, in political representation and to seize spaces and experience behaviors and attitudes that have long been conferred exclusively on men. Guided by these reflections, in this text we present elements to understand the third woman as the synthesis of postmodernity, identifying in the character Kate Foster from the series Workin´ Moms, elements that denote this multifaceted woman, articulating brief analyzes about the reality of insertion of Brazilian woman to loads of management and leadership in Brazil.

DA CÁTEDRA À DEPARTAMENTALIZAÇÃO – RAÍZES DA ESTRUTURA ORGANIZACIONAL DAS UNIVERSIDADES PÚBLICAS BRASILEIRAS
Authors: Cesar Rosa Vaccarelli Etienne
Published: May 2023

Desde os primórdios dos cursos superiores no Brasil, a cátedra – seja em seu nível aparente ou imanente – permanece nas universidades públicas brasileiras, impactando práticas pedagógicas e também estruturas organizacionais. Nesse sentido, este artigo apresenta um breve histórico da cátedra universitária no Brasil, sua interface na atuação educacional e administrativa dos docentes, impactos na organização universitária e sua supressão com o advento da Reforma Universitária de 1968, a partir da qual foram introduzidos nas universidades públicas brasileiras os departamentos, modelo esse importado pela ditadura militar da experiência organizacional de universidades estadunidenses. Como resultados da pesquisa, inferimos que ainda hoje as universidades públicas brasileiras, ao mesmo tempo que representam celeiros de inovação, mantêm o duo cátedra-departamento caracterizando seus campus e setores, o que afeta diretamente a forma de organização administrativo-burocrática destes e permanecem como espaços de poder de professores frente às demais categorias das comunidades acadêmicas. Apurou-se também que há exemplos de estruturas universitárias que fogem a essa tradição universitária ainda tão arraigada, o que promove a reflexão sobre a necessidade de uma nova reforma do Ensino Superior brasileiro de modo a conferir às universidades públicas uma estrutura organizacional e pedagógica condizente com as necessidades da sociedade brasileira, em geral, e como suas respectivas comunidades acadêmicas, em especial.

A violência é considerada um problema de saúde pública por ser uma das principais causas de mortalidade prematura no mundo, resultando em diversos impactos que afetam a população. Este é um estudo ecológico de série temporal sobre homicídios entre 2016 à 2020 realizado no Estado do Paraná. Os dados foram extraídos do Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade (SIM) por categorias: gênero, idade, raça/cor, estado civil, local de ocorrência e CID (X85 à Y09 e Y35 à Y36). A análise dos dados demonstra que no período ocorreram 12.661 mortes violentas no estado, sendo 91,4% do gênero masculino e 8,6% do gênero feminino. Disparos de arma de fogo são a maior causa das mortes para ambos os gêneros, sendo o masculino com 65,6% e feminino 44,3% dos casos. Destaca-se ainda que a intervenção legal foi responsável por 0,1% mortes do gênero feminino, contudo correspondeu à 6,44% dos óbitos masculinos. Considerando os municípios, Pinhais apresentou a maior taxa de óbitos para 100 mil habitantes, sendo 2074% e 270% para o gênero masculino e feminino. Compreender melhor as categorias que levam ao homicídio é um passo fundamental para criação de políticas públicas mais eficazes para minimizar os homicídios no brasil e no mundo.

Authors: Shamikumar R , Mohammed Syed , M Ashika , Z Janani , Srinivasan Chethan , Ananya T
Published: May 2023

Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the role of ultrasonography (USG) for early diagnosis of clinically suspected dengue fever before it becomes serologically positive and usefulness of USG in predicting severity of the disease. Methods: Prospective observational study conducted at a tertiary care hospital from April 2020 to March 2021, 70 cases of clinically suspected dengue within the age group of 6 months to 15 years presenting with fever for less than 5days underwent whole abdomen and chest ultrasonography. For seropositive cases, ultrasonography findings and their utility in early diagnosis and prediction of disease severity was analyzed along with their correlation to the clinical and laboratory profiles.Results:75.8% had primary dengue and 24.2% had secondary dengue. 94% cases demonstrated ultrasonography features suggestive of dengue like hepatomegaly (81%), ascites (63.8%), splenomegaly (56.9%), gall bladder wall thickness (46.6%), Cholecystitis (44.8%) and Pleural effusion (41.4%). Ascites and pleural effusion correlated well with clinical severity (p<0.05). Ascites also had significant correlation with increased hematocrit (p=0.040) and thrombocytopenia (p=0). Significant correlation was observed between pleural effusion with decreased platelet count ((p=0.004) and decreased serum sodium levels (p=0.044). Gall bladder wall thickening >5mm correlated well with disease severity. USG showed 94.3% sensitivity, 16.67% specificity and 81.43% of diagnostic accuracy in the seropositive cases of this study. Conclusion: Ultrasonography is useful not only as an adjuvant for early diagnosis of Dengue fever but also as a marker of disease severity.
A New Positive Output High Gain Quadratic Buck-Boost Converter: Analysis, Design and Control
Authors: Hosseinpour Majid , Dastgiri Armineh
Published: May 2023

Abstract— In this paper, a non-isolated quadratic and buck-boost converter based on the Zeta structure is proposed, and its operating principle and analysis of its steady-state is discussed. Also, the parameter design is presented, and on-idealities are considered in the power circuit to analyze - in detail - the real voltage gain and efficiency of the proposed converter. Moreover, a simulation prototype is implemented to validate the theoretical analysis, and a comparison of the proposed converter with other similar topologies and small-signal models is conducted. The results show that - unlike the classic buck-boost converters - the proposed converter has a positive output voltage and a quadratic voltage gain that is higher than the traditional Zeta converters. Also, it has advantages such as common ground characteristics between output/input voltage terminals, continuous input current, simple structure and high efficiency. Additionally, the voltage stresses across the power switches of the proposed converter are less than half of the output voltage or equal to the sum of the input and output voltages. Therefore, the low on-resistance power switches are employed to reduce power losses and improve efficiency. On top of that, the high quadratic voltage gain and positive output polarity features present the superiority of the proposed converter against other similar converters.

This study aims to verify the difference between the Creative Problem Solving model and the Problem-Based Learning model on the self-directed learning of students in historical subjects. This study used a quantitative approach with an experimental research design. The research design used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest, nonequivalent multiple-group design. The research sample consisted of 68 grade XI students from IPS 1 and IPS 2 classes at SMAN Balung. Data collection techniques used documentation and questionnaires. The data analysis used an independent sample t-test with SPSS 23 software for Windows. The results showed a significant difference in the self-directed learning of students who were taught using the Creative Problem Solving model and those who were taught using the Problem-Based Learning model. This can be seen from the results of the independent sample t-test on the self-directed learning variable, which obtained a significance level of 0.046 (0.046 < 0.05), indicating that there is a significant difference in the self-directed learning of students who were taught using the Creative Problem Solving model and those who were taught using the Problem-Based Learning model. The difference in the mean self-directed learning score was -0.89, a negative value indicating that the self-directed learning of students in the experimental class using the Creative Problem Solving model was better than that of the control class taught using the Problem-Based Learning model.
INDIAN ENGAGEMENT WITH TALIBAN-LED AFGHANISTAN AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PAKISTAN
Authors: Farooq Muhammad
Published: May 2023

Establishing a liberal government in post-Taliban Afghanistan allowed India to fulfil its foreign policy goal, i.e., investment in Afghanistan to acquire leverage for its anti-Pakistan agenda. However, the twenty-year war ended with the US withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, resulting in the Taliban’s rise to power, diminishing Indian influence and reversion of its interests. India halted its investment and diplomatic engagement with the Taliban government due to its previous position, which led India to compromise on its strategic interests outlined in the presence of US forces. To safeguard its strategic interests, India has resumed its diplomatic and economic engagement with the Taliban government at a critical time when other regional states are analysing the US’ future course of action towards the war-torn country. Therefore, this paper examines how India evaluates the newly structured regional environment while finding a new role in Afghanistan. It also analyses the implications of India-Afghanistan re-engagement for Pakistan.

Prediction of surface roughness of Ti6Al4V and optimization of cutting parameters based on experimental design
Authors: TOAN NGUYEN VAN , Thi Hai Van Nguyen , Kim Hung Nguyen , Tat Khoa Doan
Published: May 2023

The effect of machining parameters on the surface roughness in dry-turning Ti6Al4V alloy using an experimental design method was investigated. A mathematical equation based on the response surface methodology was established to fully understand the influence of machining parameters (cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut) on the surface roughness. A set of experiments based on a three-level statistical full factorial design of the experimental method was performed to collect the mean of surface roughness data. The model of R2=0.9656 shows a good correlation between the experimental results and predicted values. The analysis results from the model revealed that the feed rate is the dominant factor affecting surface roughness, followed by cutting speed, and depth of cut. The surface roughness was minimized when the feed rate and depth of cut are set to the lowest, and the cutting speed was set to the highest level. Verification of the experimental results indicated that the surface roughness of 0.832 µm at cutting speed of 200 m/min, feed rate of 0.1 mm/rev, and depth of cut of 0.1 mm were achieved under the optimal conditions

Published: May 2023

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), a sink must broadcast periodically a command message to a group of nodes or all nodes to control the operation of the network. However, the sparse distribution and limited resources of nodes bring difficulties for efficient broadcasting. In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient command broadcast protocol based on the construction of a spanning tree which includes maximizing the number of leaf nodes, and the allocation of one sharable slot to each tree level. The sharable slot that allocates to tree level will be divided into multiple mini slots, and non-leaf nodes at the same level will compete for broadcasting; in this way, collision can be reduced. Moreover, a node that moves to another level can use the sharable slot allocated to the new level without reallocating the slots. Extensive simulations prove that this approach not only achieves high reliability of message delivery but also energy efficiency.

Authors: Huu Tho , Nguyen Minh Tam
Published: May 2023

Geometry, stability, electronic structure, and magnetic properties of Ge14M clusters with M being a 3d transition metal atom, from Sc to Zn, were studied using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at B3PW91/6-311+G(d) level. The obtained results found that Ge14M clusters preferentially exist in its lowest possible spin state, except for M being Fe and Cr. The thermodynamic stability of the structures has been evaluated through the average binding and embedded energies. Ge14Ti and Ge14V clusters are considered to be the most stable in the Ge14M series (M = Sc - Zn) with the geometry of the C2 point group where M is located in the center of the Ge12 hexagonal prism along with two Ge-atoms capping on two Ge6 faces. In this series Ge14M clusters, only Ge14Fe cluster is stable at the high spin state, with a magnetic moment of 2mB.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are one of the principal causes of air pollution, posing a grave danger to the environment and human health due to their toxicity. In the presence of heat or light, catalytic oxidation has been recognized as a viable and efficient approach for VOCs remediation. Manganese-based oxides are one of the most environmentally benign and cost-effective choices for the catalytic destruction of volatile organic compounds in thermocatalysis. That is the reason why this article focused on catalytic oxidation to control benzene (a VOCs component). The wet impregnation process was used to produce manganese oxide supported on cordierites. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer mapping (EDS mapping), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Hydrogen Temperature-programmed reduction (TPR-H2) were used to characterize the catalysts. When using the TCD-FID detector, catalytic activity measurements were done on a micro-flow reactor system coupled online to GC. The results showed that MnO2-Cor potential catalyst for completely oxidizing benzene with a 100% benzene conversion temperature of 350 C to CO2 and H2O. This catalyst provides high thermal stability and good reusability due to being carried on cordierite.

Authors: Đỗ Trung
Published: May 2023

Intumescent coating is one of the useful methods to protect steel structures under fire conditions. In this study, the influence of single and hybrid two or three flame-retardant fillers among TiO2, Al(OH)3, and Mg(OH)2 on paints containing ammonium polyphosphate (APP), melamine (MEL), pentaerythritol (PER) based on the epoxy resin was investigated to improve the fire protection performance of the intumescent coatings. The performances of the intumescent coatings were determined by a fire test at 950oC for 1 hour. The coating degradation was characterized by Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The morphology and composition of the char after the fire test were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectra (EDS). The results revealed that Al(OH)3 or combination of Al(OH)3 and TiO2 are the effective solution to increase fire protective performances of the epoxy-based intumescent coatings.
Window-based alternatine filters for f-OFDM in next generation wireless communication systems
Authors: Dang Hieu , Tran Nghia , Nguyen Cuong
Published: May 2023

In this paper, the authors propose alternative filters to improve the spectral properties of the filtered orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (filtered-OFDM) candidate waveform for new wireless systems (fifth generation (5G) and next generation). The effectiveness of the proposed alternative filters is validated through extensive simulations and experiments in the 5G scenarios at waveform 2K. The results show that the alternative filters can improve the spectral containment capability of a filtered-OFDM signal by more than 100 dB when compared to an OFDM signal. The proposed filters meet the optimization requirements as well as the ongoing or planned standardization.

Capital flight can cause challenges regarding the domestic availability of financial resources in sustaining domestic investment in Nigeria. The purpose of this study is to examine the connection between capital flight components and domestic investment in Nigeria. The study employed the autoregressive distributive lag model (ARDL) to analyze the time series data for Nigeria spanning from 1981 to 2018. The study found that changes in external debt, current account balance, and foreign direct investments have a negative effect on domestic investments in the short run and long run. Furthermore, the results obtained show that the intercept has a positive effect on domestic investment. The long-run coefficient of current account balance has a positive effect, while the other components of capital flight – foreign direct investment, external reserves and external debt – have a negative effect on domestic investment. The error correction coefficient is significant and conforms to the a priori expectation. Hence, the study concludes that growth in domestic investment can be achieved by regulating the components of capital flight within the desirable limits. The study recommends that emphasis should be placed on the components of capital flight to stimulate domestic investment for economic growth.

Background: The proper estimation of depth of the orotracheal tube (OTT) in intubated patients is difficult. Several methods have been developed for proper estimation of the depth of OTT. The purpose of this study was to compare two commonly used formulae (21/23 rule and Chula formula) for proper estimation of depth of OTT in our Pakistani population. Methods: In this randomized interventional study, we included 74 adult patients. The study was conducted in the Intensive care unit of a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan, from October 2021 to April 2022. Patients were intubated using either the 21/23 rule (OTT was fixed at 21 cm in females and 23 cm in males from the right incisor) or the Chula formula (OTT was fixed at the right incisor according to the height based formula, {(height in cm/10)+4}). The distance between the carina and the OTT tip was measured using the digital chest x-ray with a PACS software. Results: A total of 74 patients were intubated in which 32 were intubated using 21/23 rule and 42 were intubated using the Chula formula. Four female patients in 21/23 rule group encountered unsafe distance between the carina and the tip of the OTT (i.e., <2 cm) while no such complications were reported in Chula formula group (p-value 0.031). Conclusion: Chula formula was safe method for OTT placement in our study. Further studies with larger sample size are needed to assess the safety and efficacy of Chula formula for Pakistani Population.
