O estudo objetiva identificar como ocorre o desdobramento das metas até o nível operacional do setor de Planejamento e Controle da Manutenção (PCM) de uma mineradora do estado de Minas Gerais. No estudo buscou-se descrever o processo do desdobramento de metas na mineradora, tendo como referência as ferramentas do planejamento estratégico como o método Hoshin Kanri. A abordagem da pesquisa foi qualitativa do tipo descritiva. Utilizou-se como método a pesquisa de campo. O universo foi uma Gerência de Manutenção da mineradora pesquisada, cuja amostra foi o seu setor de PCM. O critério de amostragem foi não probabilístico por tipicidade. Os dados foram coletados por meio de pesquisa documental e entrevista estruturada e tratados com a técnica de análise de conteúdo. Como resultados, constatou-se que o desdobramento das metas do setor pesquisado ocorre a partir das diretrizes da alta direção, que são enviadas para as gerências, as quais são classificadas nas dimensões saúde e segurança, pessoas, qualidade, produtividade e custos. Por sua vez são desdobradas para os níveis de supervisão, que são responsáveis por fazer chegar ao nível operacional. Desse modo, utilizando-se do método Hoshin Kanri, ficou evidente o alinhamento dos objetivos da alta direção com os níveis gerencial, de supervisão e operacional.

Water loss and canopy resistance to water flow from sunflower (Helianthus Annus L) in two different climatic environments
Authors: DAS H.P. , SHARMA A.K. , CHOWDHURY A. 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT. In the present paper water loss and variations in canopy resistance in sunflower during kharif and rabi have been analysed.
Mean daily water loss of sunflower in rabi season is slightly less than that in kharif. The water loss falls considerably as the soil dries down. The soil water loss is found to be significantly correlated with moisture content in 0-45 cm depth soil profile. The canopy resistance is fairly low when the soil is wet but as soil dries. The resistance increases.
Southwest monsoon rainfall in India: Part I-Spatial variability
Authors: MAZUMDAR A. B. 
Published: December 2021

Results of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in spatial mode (S-Mode) applied on a 10 years' (1977-86) data set of weekly rainfall anomalies are presented in this study. The rainfall activity has been below average in the period under study with high standard deviations mostly over low rainfall areas. Inter - subdivisional correlation values suggest predominance of broad- scale weather systems over most parts of the country .The first principal component (PC) resemblance with the mean pattern. The second PC has been associated with active monsoon condition. The third and fourth PCs have been related to the northward progression of the Madden-Julian oscillation and the weak monsoon condition respectively.
Resemblance of spatial patterns of alternative PCs with typical strong and weak monsoon activities suggest significant contributions from certain parts of the country (northeast, southeast) towards overall rainfall activity during weak monsoon situation.

Authors: DAS H. P. , DATAR S. V. 
Published: December 2021

The prospect of double cropping of rain fed rice in West Bengal has been studied in two agroecological conditions (Canning, located in coastal saline region and Nagri, located in Red lateritic region) by identifying growing season through the analysis of rainfall data. The rainfall data of these locations have been analysed for dry and wet weeks by assuming a dry threshold value of 20 mm per week. Wet and dry weeks have been subjected to Markov Chain probability analysis and periods of ideal sowing have been determined. Rainfall data has also been accumulated from 1st week (1- 7 Jan) onwards, and 52nd week (24- 31 Dec) backwards and by subjecting it to ranking method, growth periods of dry and wet crops have been determined. The study reveals that generally from 24th to 37th week (11 Jun-16 Sep) the probability of getting wet weeks exceeds 15% and probability of two consecutive dry weeks is negligible from 20th to 38th week (14 May - 23 September) for both the statistics. It is also found that harvesting two rice crops of shorter duration is feasible during the growing period covering pre-monsoon and monsoon season.

Published: December 2021

In the present study, data for four stations viz., Banswara, Bhopal, Parbhani and Rahuri for the years from 1990 to 1993 have been utilized to understand various aspects of evapotranspiration of the soybean crop. An attempt has also been made to find out the impact of rainfall and crop duration at different phases on the seed yield.

The yield was found to be significantly correlated with the rainfall during vegetative phase. Crop growth duration exert positive effect on the soybean yield and that a longer flowering period is favourable for higher yields.

The results also indicate that the soybean crop consume maximum water during the vegetative stage.

Published: December 2021

Se presenta el trabajo de investigación desarrollado con comunidades de pescadores en el embalse El Guajaro entre los años 2013 a 2016, con el fin de determinar los tipos de arte de pesca que implementan en el sector y cómo estos determinan la relación costo - beneficio en las ganancias económicas y en la mejora de la calidad de vida de los habitantes.
Se reporta que existe un preocupante uso de artes de pesca restringidas en este medio, debido al peligro de capturar organismos muy pequeños. En ese sentido hace falta un mayor control por parte de las autoridades. Por otro lado, se remarca por parte de las comunidades de los pescadores, la frustración en cuanto a los beneficios económicos obtenidos por dicha actividad. Se logró determinar que este, en promedio, es inferior al salario mínimo legal vigente, ya que deben repartir las ganancias entre los participantes de la faena y pagar el alquiler de lanchas

Criminal participation and honour-related violence
In the Dutch public debate on honour-based violence on a regular basis this question is raised: should a special article be introduced for criminalising honour-based violence? However, it is striking that in this debate until now not much attention has been paid towards the different roles of family members in these violent conflicts. The main focus has always been on the so-called ‘material offender’, i.e. the offender that commits or threatens to commit a violent act. But what about family members that play a role in instigating this violence, the so-called ‘intellectual offenders’? In this article it is stated that in the Dutch context we should focus less on the introduction of new articles for punishing honour-based violence in the penal code and make better use of already existing laws and legal framework for addressing these severe violent acts.

Abstract
This pilot study measured Traffic-Related Air Pollution (TRAP) and calculated the corresponding Air Quality Index (AQI) in Peshawar. Using Libelium wireless sensors, the research measured outdoor TRAP and monitored indoor air quality for 48 days. The maximum outdoors daily mean concentration was 47 µg m−3 for PM1, 90 µg m−3 for PM2.5, 356 µg m−3 for PM10, 258 ppb for SO2, and 219 ppb for NO2, respectively. This corresponds to PM2.5 AQI of 158 (Unhealthy), PM10 AQI of 148 (Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups; USG), SO2 AQI of 181 (Unhealthy), and NO2 AQI of 123 (USG). The maximum daily average concentration for the indoor condition was 31 µg m−3 for PM1, 49 µg m−3 for PM2.5, 78 µg m−3 for PM10, 465 ppb for SO2, and 247 ppb for NO2, respectively. The corresponding AQI was 135 (USG) for PM2.5, 62 (Moderate) for PM10, 254 (Very Unhealthy) for SO2, and 129 (USG) for NO2. Data analysis shows that about 73% of the overall indoor AQI falls in the category of “USG”, while SO2 was the largest contributor to overall AQI. The study concludes that indoor AQI was slightly better than outdoor AQI because of the distance and height from the outdoor location. Moreover, Pakistan’s AQI for PM2.5 exceeds WHO’s 24-hours limit; however, it was relatively better by 23%, 65%, and 170% compared to China, India, and Bangladesh, respectively. In contrast, AQI for SO2 and NO2 was poor as compared to the same countries. The concentration and AQI for traffic-related air pollutants remain unhealthy and sometimes becomes hazardous, which means the sensitive groups are at greater risk.

Published: December 2021

Olive mill wastewater (OMW), are the liquid residues generated during the extraction of oil by traditional and modern three-phase type crushing units. These effluents are characterized by an acidic pH and composition rich in water, organic matter, minerals and polyphenols. In general, they are directly discharged into natural ecosystems. Their danger is linked to the enormous quantities produced in a short period between October and March. To mitigate the effects of vegetable waters on the environment, their valorization in different areas is discussed. As biopesticides, crude OMW have been shown to be very toxic to Aphis pomi; the LC50 and LC95 varied respectively from 27.17 to 45.59 and from 77.19 to 134.57 mg of OMW/L of water; they vary according to the stage of the aphid considered. The young stages of A. pomi were more sensitive than the elderly are. Therefore, the OMW can be used as a means of controlling aphids. However, before operating on a large scale, it is necessary to repeat the trials in field and assess their impact on non-target organisms and treated crops.
Analysis and Design of Absorbers for Electromagnetic Compatibility Applications
Authors: Hayati Raad Shiva 
Published: December 2021

Absorbers are one of the key components in the realm of electromagnetic compatibility. Depending on the frequency range of interest, different types of absorbers can be utilized for this purpose. This chapter introduces the analysis and modeling of ferrite-based absorbers for low-frequency applications (below 1 GHz) and discusses the issues encountered in their installation, resulting in air gaps. Later, different kinds of pyramidal absorbers, commonly used in the broadband microwave frequency range (above 1 GHz), are presented, and analytical and numerical approaches for predicting their performance are reviewed. The combination of the ferrite tile and pyramidal dielectric absorbers is also provided. Then, some practical aspects of designing hybrid absorbers, including the influence of carbon loading and matching layer on their performance, are mentioned. Finally, the absorber operating frequency extension to the millimeter-wave spectrum using metamaterial structures or graphene material is presented.

Published: December 2021

Objective: Medical students have a heavy academic burden, hence, various factors can directly and easily affect their academic performance. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of hemoglobin levels, body composition, nutritional status and physical activity on academic achievement in medical students.
Methods: 121 students (69 males, 52 females) participated in the study. Body compositions were recorded; data concerning nutritional habits, food consumption frequency and physical activity was obtained using a survey. The hemoglobin and hematocrit values measured in the physiology practice were recorded and the scores obtained from the committee exam were considered as academic achievement criteria.
Results: Female students were found to be more successful than males (p=0.012). Smokers (p=0.007) and sugary-beverage consumers (p=0.022) were also more unsuccessful. Males who did not consume coffee daily were more successful than those who did (p=0.015). Additionally, males with moderate physical activity levels were more successful than those who had low physical activity levels (p=0.04). Furthermore, there was a moderate positive correlation between academic achievement and sedentary behavior (p˂0.05, r=0.265).
Discussion: Based on our findings, we determined that smoking, coffee and sugary-beverage consumption may negatively affect academic success in medical students. Studying theoretical lessons daily for a sufficient period and getting moderate physical activity in leisure time can be recommended as tools for medical students to increase academic achievement.
Otázky uplatňování prevenční povinnosti při výrobě a provozu autonomních vozidel
Authors: Fialová Eva , Krausová Alžběta 
Published: December 2021

Výroba vozidel je regulována celou řadou právně závazných předpisů, včetně právně závazných technických norem. Těmto normám se musí výrobci podřídit, pokud vozidlo chtějí uvést na trh. Přesto se najdou v automobilech některé prvky, na které technické normy nepamatují. Toto se může týkat nových komponent nebo moderních asistenčních systémů a funkcionalit. I tehdy, pokud výrobce není v takovém případě vázán žádnou právně závaznou normou, má prevenční povinnost neboli povinnost předcházet škodám. S vývojem (částečně) autonomních vozidel bude růst význam prevenční povinnosti s tím, jak budou vozidla vybavena doposud právně neregulovanými prvky a systémy. Tento článek pojednává o prevenční povinnosti a jejím významu pro bezpečnost autonomního řízení. Článek v závěru zmiňuje i relevantní judikaturu, která se k prevenční povinnosti vztahuje.
Ospravedlnění, nebo ontologie? Aneb proč je filosofování o pojmu lidských práv užitečné
Authors: Dufek Pavel 
Published: December 2021

Text kriticky reaguje na článek Marka Káčera Načo sa trápiť s otázkou existencie ľudských práv? (ČPVP 4/2020). Argumentuji, že autorova snaha o vyhnutí se filosofickým kontroverzím spojeným s pojmem lidských práv narazí na stejný typ problémů, s nimiž se potýkají přístupy, jež chce pragmatickým obratem překonat. Nosným neshledávám ani justifikační opření pragmatismu o údajný celosvětový překrývající se konsenzus stran praxe lidských práv. Poukazem na neúplnost právně-centralistického pohledu na lidská práva a zdůrazněním jejich sociálně-morálního podhoubí pak zpochybňuji i související tezi, že jako lidstvo jsme se pro lidská práva díky jejich všeobecné užitečnosti již „rozhodli“, a tudíž není více důvod hledat jejich hlubší ospravedlnění.
Pseudospor o ľudských právach
Authors: Káčer Marek 
Published: December 2021

Táto duplika reaguje na texty troch autorov, ktorí kritizujú môj návrh, aby sme pri obhajobe ľudských práv používali pragmatické argumenty namiesto argumentov ontologických. Napriek skutočnosti, že väčšina kritických námietok s týmto návrhom priamo nepolemizuje, dospievam k jeho miernej modifikácii: Ak je úlohou ontológie rozšírenie sústavy presvedčení, ktoré ospravedlňujú naše pragmatické postoje, potom ontológia môže poskytovať dobré argumenty aj pri obhajobe ľudských práv. Pragmatizmus ontológiu nenahrádza, ale ju predchádza.

L’efficacia della musica a scuola: una rassegna delle evidenze
Authors: Rizzo Amalia Lavinia , Pellegrini Marta 
Published: December 2021

The Italian school legislation supports the educational use of music from preschool to lower secondary school for the improvement of skills included in the student’s profile at the end of the first cycle of education. In the framework of inclusive education, musical teaching is part of the school’s commitment to promote the development of academic skills, executive functions, self-regulation as well as emotional, affective, and social dimensions. All those elements are needed for improving learning and developing attitudes towards the consideration of the differences. This work presents an umbrella review of the evidence on the effectiveness of educational musical activities for the improvement of cognitive skills, socio-emotional skills, and school performance from pupils attending K-12 as well as the factors that are relevant for improving the quality of music interventions in school. The review includes meta-analyses already conducted on the effectiveness of music and presents the method adopted for searching, selecting, and coding the studies. By reviewing the evidence, it emerges the need to carry out new research in the field of music teaching that should be more rigorous in the method than the ones included in this umbrella review.
Storytelling – EDU: Educational - Digital – Unlimited?
Authors: Hug Theo 
Published: December 2021

It is undisputed that storytelling is one of the oldest practices of humankind and has been ever-present in social life. This traditional role of narrating has gained new and unexpected topicality in the last decades in various fields and in many respects. Today, 'digital storytelling' is widely established as an umbrella term. Related phenomena are being discussed in terms of mediation, mediatization, multimodal forms of narration and others.
As to educational issues, the situation seems to be rather ambivalent. On the one hand, digital storytelling offers enhancements of learning experiences, chances for meaningful learning and democratization, and also for bridging formal and informal contexts. On the other hand, we can observe a persistent adherence of educational institutions to "writing" as the dominant medium in many countries, thus negating media ecologies and the multimedia environment. Especially regular schools are widely conceptualized as "monomedial provinces" (J. Böhme), thus being justified as "literal countercultures" in which it is imperative to defend literality as the foremost achievement in the process of civilization, whereas otherwise calls for "new literacies" cannot go unnoticed.
The contribution reflects on various understandings of 'digital storytelling' and underestimated dimensions in this regard. It aims at pointing out conceptual problems, and it sounds out limitations of the utilization of digital storytelling in educational contexts.
Visual Competence, Media Literacy and "New Literacies" – Conceptual Considerations in a Plural Discursive Landscape
Authors: Hug Theo 
Published: December 2021

Debates on media competence and media literacy have been going on now for a few decades. Many concepts have been developed in various disciplines. Along with that, discourses on visual literacy have been intensified, too, although visuals have been used in educational contexts throughout history. But only recently, after almost three thousand years of historiography, turns like the iconic turn, pictorial turn or mediatic turn have been claimed. "Competencies of Visuals" (Ratsch et al. 2009) and their epistemological relevance are intensively discussed in arts, architecture and philosophy as well as in educational, communication and media studies. In this situation, we are facing new conceptual challenges for media education and media literacy discourses. The paper starts (1) with an outline of some points of departures, followed (2) by a discussion of selected concepts of 'visual competence,' 'media competence' and 'media literacy.' In part (3), "new literacies" are questioned. Finally (4), the contribution aims at conceptual clarifications and the relativization of literacy concepts. In this context, medial forms sensu Leschke (2010) are being considered as a fruitful framework not only for future developments in media theory but also in media education and educational theory.
