Authors: Kun Zhang , Wenhe Cai , Zhichun Wang , Chen Xin , Shu Fengyuan , Yang Shi , Wang Jianwei , Weili Li , Xin Zhang 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Herein, based on the strengthening mechanism and aging mechanism of 9% Cr steel, changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties during long-term high-temperature service are analyzed. The limitations of current microstructure observation in the aging rating process and the defects of the aging evaluation system are expounded. It is proposed that the aging evaluation of 9% Cr martensitic heat-resistant steel can distinguish between the abnormal microstructure and the aging phenomenon occurring during long-term operation, and the combination of higher resolution microscopy observation such as laser confocal scanning microscopy with mechanical property tests could provide a comprehensive judgement.
Enhanced Image Reconstruction in Electrical Impedance Tomography using Radial Basis Function Neural Networks
Authors: Nomvussi Serge Ayme Kouakouo , Mikulka Jan 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This paper presents a novel cascade algorithm for image reconstruction in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) using radial basis function neural networks. The first subnetwork applies a density-based algorithm and k-nearest neighbors (KNN) to determine the center and width of the radial basis function neural networks, with the aim of preventing ill-conditioned connection weights between the hidden and output layers. The second subnetwork is a generalized regression neural network dedicated to functional approximation. The combined subnetworks result in a reduced mean square error and achieve an accuracy of 89.54 % without noise and an accuracy between 82.90 % and 89.53 % with noise levels ranging from 30 to 60 dB. In comparison, the original radial basis function neural networks (RBFNN) method achieves an accuracy of 85.44 % without noise and between 80.90 % and 85.31 % under similar noise conditions. The total variation (TV) method achieves 83.13 % without noise, with noise-influenced accuracy ranging from 34.28 % to 45.15 %. The Gauss-Newton method achieves 82.35 % accuracy without noise, with accuracy ranging from 33.21 % to 46.15 % in the presence of noise. The proposed method proves to be resilient to various types of noise, including white Gaussian noise, impulsive noise, and contact noise, and consistently delivers superior performance. It also outperforms the other methods in noise-free conditions. The reliability of the method in noisy environments supports its potential application in the development of new modular systems for electrical impedance tomography.

Authors: Andris Peter , Frollo Ivan 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements are most often used to measure images or display the spectrum of different samples. Depending on the samples, these can be medical applications, chemistry, physics, or mineralogy. Perhaps the most beneficial use is in medicine, as it allows you to image the inside of living organs without interfering with them. When physically examining samples, the frequency spectrum of the sample is often measured, which is then converted into a map of the inhomogeneities in the layer of interest. This article addresses one of several similar problems.
Delving into Secondary School EFL Teachers’ Practices Facilitated by Task-Based Language Instruction
Authors: Syla Rrita 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The implementation of Task-Based Instruction (TBI) has resulted in a productive transformation for many foreign language teachers, since it emphasizes the importance of context and meaningful language use. This study presents an overview of the Task-Based Instruction, provides a framework and elaborates task characteristics. It investigates secondary school EFL teachers’ experiences with the task-based approach through semi-structured interviews. The results show that despite the fact that some teachers are not trained in Task-Based Teaching, they are eager to implement this approach due to the fact that it enhances the communicative competency and provides students with maximized ways of using the target language. The results show that this pedagogical transformation necessitates material adaptation, as well as careful task design, planning and preparation. As per the examination procedure, it is evident that task-based teaching is not created with examination in mind. Its aim is to support students in using English outside the classroom, even if the language they produce is not always grammatically accurate. It is possible to prepare learners for examinations through form-focused activities which are accompanied by tasks and later on reflected in the examination. Above all, Task-Based Instruction is concerned with learners’ ability to use language effectively. Therefore, this paper considers some key areas for future research, and it stresses the need for teacher training, in order for successful implementation to take place.
The Division of Marital Joint Property: Legal Framework and Gender Implications in North Macedonia
Authors: Metaj-Stojanova Albana 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This paper explores the legal framework governing the division of joint ownership in marital property in North Macedonia, with a particular focus on gender implications. It critically analyzes the Family Law Act and the Law on Ownership and Other Real Rights to assess how these provisions function during marriage dissolution due to divorce or death. By employing a qualitative, legal-analytical approach, the research assesses legislative texts and relevant case law to explore the extent to which current laws ensure equitable property division, irrespective of gender or economic contribution. In addition to legal analysis, the research utilizes case law to highlight and illustrate discrepancies between the law’s theoretical principle of equal division and its real-world application, particularly where traditional gender roles are concerned. It discusses how traditional expectations around women’s unpaid contributions, such as caregiving and household management, often result in outcomes that disadvantage women. Women, especially those who have forgone paid employment to fulfill domestic roles, face significant challenges in securing an equal share of marital property.
The study emphasizes the need for legal reforms that better account for these disparities, promoting fairness in the division of joint ownership and greater protection for vulnerable parties. This research contributes to ongoing discussions on property rights and gender equality, proposing reforms that align the legal framework with international human rights standards.
To provide a broader perspective, the study includes a comparative analysis of property division practices in selected jurisdictions, situating North Macedonia's approach within an international framework. This examination not only underscores the need for greater consistency in judicial interpretation but also contributes to ongoing discussions on property rights and marital equity by proposing specific areas for legal reform. The originality of this study lies in its detailed, context-specific analysis of North Macedonian property division laws, offering unique insights and practical recommendations for enhancing the fairness and effectiveness of the legal framework within the context of international human rights standards.
Parteienpositionen: Annäherung in der Mitte und zunehmende Distanz zur AfD
Authors: Maydell Richard von 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
As fringe parties increasingly capture a larger portion of the votes, the issue of how centrist parties can set themselves apart from these extremes while establishing distinct characteristics has become more prominent in public and political debates. Despite analyses of programmatic overlaps between various parties indicating a separation of centrist parties from the far-right AfD (Alternative for Germany), there is no clear evidence that centrist parties hold uniquely defined stances among themselves. In this context, we have not observed a sharpening of the programmatic profiles of centrist parties since 2002.
Inflation in Deutschland – eine empirische Bilanz
Authors: Erbe Susanne 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Measuring and explaining inflation is of great importance for political and economic decision makers. Various price indices are compiled at the national and European level, some of which show significantly different price trends due to their different focuses. The sharp rise in inflation rates since 2021 is primarily due to supply-side factors, in particular the sharp rise in energy prices. This is illustrated by the differences in the development of the VPI and core inflation. The price brakes on gas and electricity in particular have had a direct dampening effect on inflation, while the ECB’s restrictive policy has had a more indirect effect. Although the inflation rate has fallen significantly by now, price pressure could come from a tightening of free trade due to increasing protectionism in the long term.

Arabic plays an important role in the history of education in Indonesia and must remain as focus of attention. Arabic language learning at MTs under the Ministry of Religious Affairs needs to be well-integrated into the existing curriculum, so that it is relevant to the values promoted by the current vision of Indonesian Education, especially the Pancasila Student Profile which focuses on building the character of students. However, in practice, Arabic language teaching materials at MTs are not fully connected to these values. For this reason, efforts are needed to test the feasibility of one of the teaching materials. In this context, the researcher chose the teaching material "al-Muthalaah" by Abu Abdurrohman to test its feasibility for the Pancasila Student Profile. Exploratory descriptives will be used in this feasibility test with the Miles and Huberman model data analysis technique. The validation test was carried out by two experts, including a material expert and a media expert. The validation test results show that al-Muthalaah's teaching materials received an average score of 87.75% and were categorized as extremely valid by material experts. The aspect of the relevance of teaching materials to the Pancasila Student Profile also received a high score with 95%. However, media experts gave an average score of 80% with the category being sufficiently valid and requiring slight revision. This shows that Al-Muthala'ah teaching materials were declared feasible and relevant to be applied in Arabic language learning at MTs. So that it can become practical material for aligning ourselves with the vision promoted by the government and also helps students understand and internalize the values that support their interactions with the surrounding environment.

Respiratory Abnormalities Among Elderly Women in Urban Slums: A Comprehensive Analysis of Contributing Factors
Authors: Ghosh Anushka , Mukhopadhyay Susmita , Mukhopadhyay Barun 
Published: December 2024

Background:
India experiences a growing aging population and prioritizing the comprehension of respiratory health concerns among the elderly becomes crucial. Those in the elderly demographic residing in urban slums confront notable socioeconomic obstacles and encounter restricted healthcare accessibility, heightening their vulnerability to respiratory illnesses. Therefore, examining respiratory health in this specific urban context provides insights into how living conditions impact the health of vulnerable populations.

Objectives:
The present study aims to evaluate the occurrence of respiratory abnormalities among slum-dwelling elderly women and also to determine the concomitant factors responsible for respiratory abnormalities among them.

Material and Methods:
The study includes a total of 261 elderly women aged 60 years and above living in slum areas of Kolkata. The standard protocols were followed to collect spirometry and anthropometric data. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed to satisfy the study objectives.

Results:
The majority of the participants show forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV0.1) below the predicted level, indicating the presence of mild-to-moderate respiratory abnormality. Chronic obstructive respiratory disease (COPD) was observed in 15.2% of elderly women, significantly higher than the national average. The study identified significant correlations between age and respiratory abnormalities. Factors such as overcrowded living conditions, the absence of a separate kitchen, and the use of certain cooking fuels increased the likelihood of COPD. Body fat percentage was found to be inversely related to FVC, FEV0.1, and COPD.

Conclusion:
The poor living conditions and a few other associated factors are indicative of developing respiratory problems among elderly individuals. As the global population ages, this study contributes valuable insights for public health strategies, emphasizing the need for tailored approaches to address the specific challenges faced by elderly women in urban slums in the megacity of Kolkata.
