»Total Quality Mama«
Authors: Schmidt Petra
Published: September 2023

Spätmoderne Mutterschaft – Supermama, Coachin, Managerin?

Herzstück des medialen und gesellschaftlcihen Diskurses um heutige Mutterschaft ist die Vereinbarkeitsfrage von Erwerbstätigkeit und Fürsorgearbeit. Die Studie »Total Quality Mama. Mutterschaft aus der Perspektive Arbeit« wirft, über die medial behandelte Vereinbarkeits- und Machbarkeitsfrage hinaus, einen tiefenscharfen und kritischen Blick auf heutige Arbeits- und Selbstanforderungen von Müttern in den Bereichen Erwerbsarbeit, Familienarbeit, Partnerschaft sowie Ökonomisierung des Selbst. Eingebettet in Theoriekonzepte zur spätmodernen Arbeits- und Lebenswelt wurden sechs Fallbeispiele aus einem urbanen Umfeld ethnografisch untersucht und deren Empfindungen, Einstellungen und Praxen bezüglich Fürsorge, Erwerbstätigkeit und gleichberechtigter Arbeitsteilung erkundet.

Einen intensiven Blick richtet die Studie auf die Verhandlung alter und neuer Rollenvorstellungen von Müttern und wie diese daran »arbeiten«, den Antagonismus von Erwerbstätigkeit und Fürsorgearbeit sowie Subjektivierungsanspruch und Aufopferung zu überwinden. Sie fragt nach den Ambivalenzen und dem Arrangement spätmoderner Mütter zwischen einem »freiwilligen« Zwang zur Erwerbstätigkeit, einem »freiwilligen« Zwang zur geschlechtlichen Gleichberechtigung und einer leistungsorientierten Fürsorge zu balancieren und wie dies mit »alten« Vorstellungen von Liebe und Fürsorge vereinbart wird.

Hier zeigt sich: Mütterliche Fürsorgearbeit ist zunehmend wissensbasiert und professionalisiert und erfordert ein hohes Maß an Rationalisierungen – auch des Selbst. Ferner weisen diese Prozesse auch Analogien zu managerialen Führungsstrategien von Unternehmen – einem Total Quality Management – auf, und zeigen, dass die spätmoderne Mutter immer mehr zur Coachin oder Managerin ihrer Kinder und der Reproduktionssphäre wird. Dabei wird die Leistungsoptimierung und -maximierung des Selbst, der Fürsorge und der Familie zur verinnerlichten Lebensregel der Total Quality Mama.

Wizards and Words
Authors: Korecká Lucie
Published: September 2023

This work presents an outline of the Old Norse vocabulary associated with magic and its practicioners. The research is focused on the individual words’ evaluative aspect and on their function within the texts, as well as on the narrative roles of magic as a literary motif and as a cultural concept. The literary motif of magic plays a significant role as a narrative device that enables the construction of multiple layers of meaning in the texts. The cultural concept of magic contributes to the conceptualization of various social and psychological aspects, such as the transformations of political power, gender roles, the transgression of norms, irrational impulses, and diverse forms of otherness.

Konzert der Musen
Authors: Bier Silvia
Published: September 2023

Die frühe französische Oper, die Tragédie en musique Jean-Baptiste Lullys, verfolgt wie kaum eine andere europäische Musiktheatergattung das Ziel, die verschiedenen Künste in einem Werk zu vereinen.

Die Studie möchte die Tragédie en musique in ihrem Wesen als Synthese der Künste fassbar machen und beleuchtet dabei die Gattung aus verschiedenen Perspektiven. In einem ersten Schritt wird die geistesgeschichtliche Grundlage nachgezeichnet, welche die ästhetischen, philosophischen und politischen Prinzipien lieferte für die Konzeption einer Gattung, die als „réunion des beaux-arts“ geschaffen und rezipiert wurde. Im zweiten Teil der Studie wird am Beispiel ‚Bellérophon‘ (1679) ein modernes Analyseinstrument etabliert, welches das Zusammenwirken verschiedener ästhetischer Ausdruckformen in der Aufführung des Werkes erfasst und die Strategien der ‚Synästhese‘ in der Gattung offenlegt.

Die Studie widmet sich damit in einer interdisziplinären Herangehensweise einem Phänomen, das für die frühe französische Oper seit ihrer Entstehung bis in die Gegenwart immer wieder erkannt und benannt wurde, dessen umfassende Erforschung jedoch bislang ausstand.

Kollektive Informationspflichten und das individuelle Informationsrecht des Kommanditisten
Authors: Borries Stephan
Published: September 2023

Das individuelle Informationsrecht des Kommanditisten stammt aus dem 19. Jahrhundert und ist nach heutigem Verständnis nur rudimentär in § 166 HGB normiert. Daneben besteht mit dem sog. „kollektiven Informationsrecht“ eine zweite, wichtige Informationssäule, die jedoch bislang nur wenig untersucht wurde.

Vor diesem Hintergrund bestand das Ziel dieser Arbeit zunächst darin, das sog. „kollektive Informationsrecht“ unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der aus dem Körperschaftsrecht bekannten „Lehre vom Organrecht“ zu untersuchen und abzugrenzen. Sodann wurde unter Weiterentwicklung der „Lehre vom Informationsbedürfnis“ herausgearbeitet, dass § 166 Abs. 1 HGB im Sinne (und vor dem Hintergrund) des einheitlichen Stammrechts auf Information fortzubilden ist, das zudem als schlechthin unentziehbares Recht unabdingbar ist.

Ein weiteres Ziel der Arbeit bestand darin, die Änderungen durch das MoPeG, die zum 01.01.2024 in Kraft treten, zu analysieren und kritisch zu bewerten. Dem Gesetzgeber ist es nur bedingt gelungen, das individuelle Informationsrecht des Kommanditisten zu stärken.

Ethanol as a Subgroup of the UNIFAC Model in the Prediction of Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium in Food and Fuel Systems
Authors: M. Ortega Bacicheti Jacqueline , D. Machado Guilherme , Nishiyama Fábio , F. Cabral Vladimir , Aranda Donato
Published: September 2023

Ethanol has been employed as a solvent in biodiesel production and vegetable oil refining since it is more economically attractive and less toxic than methanol and hexane. Furthermore, ethanol has demonstrated easy recovery, good selectivity, and distribution coefficient for free fatty acids (FFA), which is the primary target in the refining process since high acidity oil can lead to the formation of side products. As the knowledge of phase equilibrium behavior of fatty systems is essential to design and optimize the extraction of FFA, this chapter will present two new UNIFAC subgroups for ethanol: EtOH-B, focused on biodiesel production; and EtOH-D, focused on the deacidification process. Except for ethanol and water subgroups fitted in this study, all remaining UNIFAC parameters were taken from the literature. The new EtOH-B and EtOH-D parameters provide a considerably lower mean square error (1.20% and 0.87%) than the other works available in the literature. The results show that new ethanol subgroups and the developed methodology are valuable tools in predicting liquid-liquid phase equilibrium for ethyl biodiesel and vegetable oil deacidification systems considered, resulting in reduced computational calculations and a relatively small split with the complex dataset established by the UNIFAC-LL model.
Spectral Characterization and Analysis of Underground Optical Fibre Cable Network Using Optical Time Domain Reflectometry
Authors: E. Asiya Asiya , U. Onuu Michael , C. Okoro Rufus , Enendu Uche O.
Published: September 2023

Many of the optical fibre cables comprised of 1310 nm zero-dispersion single-mode (SM) optical fibres installed in underground/conduits and access networks. Currently, there have been several studies on active network systems, which are designed to increase transmission capacity and flexibility. The application of active communication devices like the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems, usually using SM optical fibre for transmission in the 1310–1625 nm window wavelength, proves very effective in decreasing the installation costs and high signal attenuations. It was imperative to examine the wavelength dependency of such transmission characteristics of SM optical fibre cables previously installed and in which several optical fibres were spliced. Analysis for such network has been performed and monitored over 1550–1625 nm wavelength. Results show that the spectral characterization and analysis of a long-haul optical network system operating at the 50-GHz-spaced 80-dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM)-channel can be used to identify the presence of faults.
The Effect of Polymerization of 2.7-Divinylcarbazole-Benzo-Bis-Thiadiazole on Optical Fiber Properties
Authors: Jabha Mohamed , El Alaoui Abdellah , Jarid Abdellah , Houssine Mabrouk El
Published: September 2023

The interest of polymer optical fibers (POF) lies in their low cost compared to silica fibers and in their ease of implementation, i.e. robustness, flexibility, low weight and easier connectivity. The first generation of polymer fibers are of the index jump type and are composed of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) for the core and a fluorinated polymer for the cladding. The significant attenuation of OPFs in the red and near IR is due to the harmonics of the different vibrational modes of the C–H bonds. The improvement of this parameter requires a shift in the transmission of the polymer towards longer wavelengths. As in the case of inorganic glasses, this requires the development of materials with low fundamental frequency of vibration. The development of graded index structures also allows limiting the modal dispersion inherent to the multi-mode character of POFs. And before the use of certain materials in the electronic fields a study of certain properties was carried out by the DFT method in order to propose the polymers based on carbazole. This study was carried out by the DFT–B3LYP method as functional with the 6-31G (d, p) atomic base to optimize all systems, from monomer to pentamer.
Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis/Mycosis: An Underdiagnosed Disease
Authors: Oliveira Rodrigues Valle Solange , Sarquis Serpa Augusto , Sarquis Serpa Faradiba
Published: September 2023

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is an immune-allergic disease of the lung due to a hypersensitivity reaction to antigens of Aspergillus fumigatus after colonization into the airways. Predominantly, it affects patients with bronchial asthma and those having cystic fibrosis (CF). Despite being recognized as a distinct entity nearly 70 years ago, this disease remains underdiagnosed. This may be due to the diagnostic methods employed, lack of standardized tests, and diagnostic criteria. The mainstay treatment for ABPA is systemic steroid. Azole antifungal agents represent an alternative for the treatment of exacerbations and are preferential strategy for corticosteroids sparing. Biologic drugs are expected to play an important role in the treatment of ABPA based on their mechanism in inhibition of type 2 inflammation, regulation of eosinophils and IgE levels, and modulation of inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, other studies are necessary for a better understanding of this disease so that an early detection can be done as well as a correct management.
The Inverse of the Discrete Momentum Operator
Authors: Martínez-Pérez Armando , Torres-Vega Gabino
Published: September 2023

In the search of a quantum momentum operator with discrete spectrum, we obtain some properties of the discrete momentum operator for nonequally spaced spectrum. We find the inverse operator. We use the matrix representation of these operators, and we find that there is one more eigenvalue and eigenfunction than the dimension of the matrix. We apply the results to obtain the discrete adjoint of the momentum operator. We conclude that we can have discrete operators which can be self-adjoint and that it is possible to define a self-adjoint extension of the corresponding Hilbert space. These results help us understand the quantum time operator.
Electron Beam Processing of Biological Objects and Materials
Authors: Bliznyuk Ulyana , Chernyaev Aleksandr , Ipatova Victoria , Nikitchenko Aleksandr , Studenikin Felix , Zolotov Sergei
Published: September 2023

The research explores a wide range of applications for electron accelerators in industrial irradiation processing. It also compares the physical properties of electron beams, dose ranges, and methods used for irradiation of polymers, medical items, transplantology objects, pharmaceuticals, and foods. Moreover, the study discusses the depth dose non-uniformity in objects irradiated with accelerated electrons. The research also highlights the dependency of geometry, density, and chemical composition of the object on the dose distribution. Another focus of the study is computer simulation of electron irradiation method, encompassing all physical and technical parameters to assess the dose distribution throughout the irradiated objects, since without knowing the precise electron beam spectrum, it is impossible to accurately reconstruct the dose distribution throughout the objects. Considering that the beam spectrum cannot always be identified, especially for industrial accelerators, the study presents algorithm for reconstructing the dose distribution in irradiated objects. The final part of the research provides methods for increasing the dose uniformity throughout objects irradiated with electron beams.
La Ciudad: inscripción y huella : escenas y paisajes de la ciudad construida y habitada, hacia un enfoque antropológico de la historia urbana
Authors: Llorente Díaz Marta
Published: September 2023

Pensar la ciudad es pensar el amplio campo de los proyectos humanos de convivencia, su entorno de formas construidas, su arquitectura, sus símbolos, el torrente de su actividad transformada a lo largo de milenios de experiencia, las distintas formas de sus representaciones. El libro se titula La ciudad: inscripción y huella porque remite a los dos principios básicos que dan origen y final al hecho de conformar el espacio que compartimos: la voluntad de dar forma, la inscripción, y la huella, la impronta real que la vida imprime en los espacios en los que se desarrolla. La arquitectura es considerada un deseo de configuración que encierra expectativas frente a la experiencia vital, que la desborda porque ella misma es deseo. Esta tensión entre proyecto y experiencia, inscripción y huella, se contempla, desde la distancia teórica, como el vínculo que pone en relación al sujeto que proyecta con el que habita el espacio. La ciudad se inscribe en el centro mismo de esta tensión; constituye el escenario variable de la relación existente entre habitar y construir.

Teoría del proyecto
Authors: Piñón Pallarés Helio
Published: September 2023

La teoría que se formula a continuación es fruto de una serie de reflexiones suscitadas por la enseñanza de la arquitectura y la práctica del proyecto: es una teoría, pues, en sentido estricto, ya que trata de explicar aquellos aspectos de la arquitectura que no tienen explicación desde el sentido común.
Los proyectos que hemos desarrollado durante los últimos seis años en el Laboratorio de Arquitectura ETSAB UPC constituyen el correlato arquitectónico de las reflexiones que el texto presenta. Así, la teoría supera la mera dimensión reflexiva para adquirir la condición de respuesta sistemática a programas y lugares diversos, tanto en el ámbito de las ideas como en el de las formas, es decir, por un lado, mediante la lógica de un discurso verbal y, por otro, desde la propuesta concreta de forma, a través de proyectos con incidencia efectiva en la realidad.

Takviye Edici Gıda Reklamlarında Kadının Annelik Rolü ve Toplumsal Cinsiyet Bağlamında Ünlü Desteğinin Alımlanması: Ceyda Düvenci’nin Sosyal Medyadaki İzleyici Yorumlarının Analizi
Authors: BUDAK Derya Nil
Published: September 2023

Toplumsal cinsiyet bağlamında kadının başlıca rollerinden biri anneliktir. Kadının, annelik rolü doğrultusunda çocukların bakımını üstlenmesi ve gelişimindeki sorumluluğu da alması beklenmektedir. Gıdalar ise çocukların fizyolojik ve zekâ gelişimi için elzemdir. Çocukların sağlıklı beslenmesi ve yeterli besin alımının sağlanması kadının toplumsal cinsiyet bağlamında annelik rolünün temel sorunsalıdır. Gıdaların yanı sıra çocuk gelişimini destekleyici gıda takviyeleri de gıdalara alternatif olarak kültür endüstrisinin temsilcileri olan ünlülerle birlikte pazarlanmaktadır. Bu çalışma, takviye edici gıda reklamlarında sunulan kadının annelik rolüne ilişkin kodlanmış mesajların, reklamlarda kullanılan ünlü desteğine yönelik sosyal medya izleyici yorumları aracılığıyla toplumsal cinsiyet bağlamında nasıl alımlandığı sorunsalını irdeleyen bir izleyici araştırmasıdır. Bu bağlamda, izleyiciyi aktif kabul eden Stuart Hall’ün perspektifinden Ceyda Düvenci’nin Instagram hesabında paylaştığı takviye edici gıda reklamına ilişkin sosyal medyadaki izleyici yorumları analiz edilmiştir. Sosyal medya takipçilerinin yorumları Hall’ün medya metinlerini okuma biçimlerine göre analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, kadının toplumsal cinsiyet bağlamındaki annelik rolünün izler kitle tarafından hegemonik-baskın biçimde alımlandığı görülmüştür. Bununla beraber çocuk yetiştirmek ve aile yaşamının devamlılığının sağlanmasıyla ilişkili kodlanmış mesajların, metni üretenler tarafından kodlandığı biçimde hegemonik-baskın alımlandığı değerlendirilmiştir. Ayrıca kültür endüstrisinin bir ürünü haline gelen annelik rolünün, ikna çalışmasında edilgen bir formda kullanıldığı görülmüştür. Bu doğrultuda izleyiciler, çeşitli nedenlerle farklı okuma biçimleri göstermiş olsa da izleyicilerin tamamına yakını kadının annelik rolünün, toplumsal ve kültürel olarak kodlanan mesajların çözümleme sürecini hegemonik-baskın olarak etkilediğini göstermiştir.

Authors: Halim Christian
Published: September 2023

Water is one of the important or basic needs for human life. The availability of water in Indonesia is an advantage that our nation has that has not been optimized. Generally, water pumps are driven by electrical energy, but it is possible to be driven by other energy, namely petroleum energy (with a combustion motor). Alternative energy that can be used is thermal energy. Thermal energy can come from coal, solar energy, geothermal or waste heat from industries that are no longer used. The purpose of this study was to determine the discharge, pump power and maximum efficiency. The working fluid used is diethyl ether. The heat comes from an electric stove which will heat the working fluid, namely diethyl ether. The variables measured were temperature, volume and pumping time. Variables that are varied are variations in the height of the pumping head, (1) 170cm, (2) 244cm and (3) 325cm. Variations in the volume of diethyl ether in the reservoir tube, (1) 653ml, (2) 717ml and (3) 844ml. Variations in the volume of compressed air in the compressed tube, (1) 5.49 liters, (2) 4.71 liters, and (3) 3.14 liters. Variations in the use of compressed air tubes, (1) one compressed air tube and (2) two compressed air tubes. The results showed that the maximum discharge of 0.63 liters/minute was obtained at variations in the height of the pumping head 1.7m, ether volume 653ml, compressed air volume 3.14 liters, and using one compressed air tube. The maximum pump power of 0.185 watt and the maximum pump efficiency of 0.047% were obtained at variations in pumping head height of 3.25m, volume of ether 653ml, compressed air volume of 3.14 liters, and using one compressed air tube.

Dandelions and Orchids: Finding Picture Books to Support Youth Facing Fear and Anxiety
Authors: Moeller Robin A. , Becnel Kim E. , Francis Tiffiny , Hoyle Mary , Noblitt Julie
Published: September 2023

Pediatrician and researcher W. Thomas Boyce described children as falling into two essential camps when it comes to anxiety—they’re either dandelions or orchids. Dandelion children, like the plant, are resistant to stress and anxiety and tend to thrive in variable conditions. Orchid children are more sensitive and need additional support and specific skills to flourish in various environments.Throughout the world, our collective society has been experiencing a state of insecurity, uncertainty, and grief, and millions of children are facing mental health challenges as a result. In this environment, even those resilient dandelion children can benefit from increasing their social and emotional literacy skills and developing coping techniques as levels of stress and anxiety continue to rise.
Finding What’s Right: Readers’ Advisory for Middle Grades
Authors: Shea Logan
Published: September 2023

As children’s librarians continue to support the development of literacy skills to children before and after they begin reading, there is also an ongoing need for librarians and support staff to be properly trained in providing readers’ advisory (RA) service.While storytime and other children’s programs may take priority within most children’s departments, RA continues to be an integral part of library service. Unfortunately, many RA tools and associated research are focused on adult readers, creating a distinct scarcity of RA material for children. This article will discuss the developmental considerations and interests for school-aged readers (aged 8–12) and give recommendations for providing RA services.

A Compendium of Jewish Culture: An Interview with Jane Breskin Zalben
Authors: Verbeten Sharon
Published: September 2023

You’re an icon in the children’s literature world, having written more than fifty books. Why does your latest title, Beni’s Tiny Tales: Around the Year in Jewish Holidays, feel different from your others? Do you feel closer to it?I need to answer this in a circuitous way because life often takes indirect paths. I have done many kinds of books and have illustrated and written most of them, but sometimes, I have illustrated other authors, and other times, other artists have illustrated my text.My first Beni book was Beni’s First Chanukah about bears and squirrels celebrating and sharing their holiday traditions as we did with our children and friends. It was my ode to all the Christmas trees I never had. All the red-and-green sugar-dusted cookies, wreaths, and pine roping my family would never do. I desperately wanted to spray-paint reindeers on my bedroom window prancing in fake snow and prayed for Santa to arrive, bringing me a Patty Playpal doll.

Finding Ezra Jack Keats: In Search of a Children’s Book Icon
Authors: McGee Butler Virginia
Published: September 2023

On a mission, I entered the Ezra Jack Keats archives in the de Grummond Children’s Literature Collection at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM) in early 2011.Chosen by the Keats Foundation Executive Director Deborah Pope and the de Grummond Curator Ellen Ruffin to do research for things to include in Viking’s fiftieth anniversary edition of Keats’ iconic The Snowy Day, I searched for items that would be meaningful for an extra eight-page supplement. Soon I found myself yearning to have had the information I was finding when I had taught Keats’ books in kindergarten and second grade. So much of his childhood and life presaged the stories he would tell and the art he would create in his picture books. On a deadline, I could not dwell on those treasures. I determined to come back and write a biography for those who still teach and read his classic books.

Maternal and child health interventions play a pivotal role in improving health outcomes and promoting well-being among mothers and children worldwide. This study employs a multidimensional approach, combining bibliometric analysis, clustering, and citation analysis, to assess the global research landscape of maternal and child health interventions. The research methodology involves systematic data collection, preprocessing, and the utilization of VOSviewer for visualization and analysis. The results reveal thematic clusters, high-impact studies, and prevailing research trends within the field. The identified clusters encompass diverse themes such as child development, adolescent health, and policy implications. High-impact studies emphasize evidence-based approaches, addressing maternal undernutrition, child health interventions, and maternal and newborn health. Additionally, the frequency of keywords reflects research priorities in coverage, child health interventions, and intervention effectiveness. Conversely, areas with fewer occurrences, such as infant health and child undernutrition, suggest potential research gaps. This comprehensive assessment of the maternal and child health interventions landscape informs evidence-based decision-making, identifies research priorities, and guides the development of holistic interventions. The study contributes to advancing maternal and child health outcomes globally by providing insights into the current state, gaps, and directions for future research.

The landscape of work is undergoing profound transformations worldwide, driven by technological advancements, shifting economic paradigms, and the enduring impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This research explores the challenges and opportunities arising from automation, the gig economy, skills evolution, and post-pandemic work trends in the context of Indonesia. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data collected through an online survey and qualitative insights gathered from semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders. The findings reveal that automation's impact is perceived as a mixture of opportunities and challenges, with education influencing expectations. The gig economy offers flexibility and supplemental income but raises concerns about job insecurity and benefits. Skills evolution is deemed critical, yet active reskilling efforts remain limited. Remote work trends have accelerated, with hybrid work models emerging as a potential solution to maintain flexibility while addressing challenges. The implications of these findings highlight the need for collaborative efforts among policymakers, businesses, and educational institutions to foster an adaptive and resilient workforce equipped for the evolving world of work.
