Predicting army cadets’ performance: The role of character strengths, GPA and GMA
Authors: Bang Henning , Nilsen Fredrik , Boe Ole , Eilertsen Dag Erik , Lang-Ree Ole Christian 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine how well a set of 12 character strengths (Leadership, Integrity, Open-Mindedness, Bravery, Teamwork, Persistence, Social Intelligence, Love of Learning, Fairness, Self-Regulation, Perspective and Creativity) will predict academic performance (AP) and military performance (MP), compared to high school grade point average (GPA) and general mental ability (GMA). The study sample comprised 123 army cadets of two cohorts from the three-year bachelor's degree programme at the Norwegian Military Academy (NMA). GPA predicted AP (r = 0.32, p ≤ 0.05), but not MP (r = 0.14, n.s.), while GMA correlated significantly with neither AP nor MP. All 12 character strengths correlated significantly with MP (rs ranging from 0.27 to 0.65), and all except for Fairness correlated significantly with AP (rs ranging from 0.18 to 0.58). An average score of the 12 character strengths showed incremental validity beyond GMA and GPA in predicting both AP and MP. Our results suggest that character strengths should be considered when selecting and training army cadets.
Paradigms and Paradoxes in the Metamorphosis of Ecotourism
Authors: Dragomir Loredana , Mazilu Mirela 
Published: December 2021

AbstractIn 2020 and 2021, the entire evolution of human society is under the sign of a paradox, of the adversity of events, coming in avalanche. The tourist evolutions themselves suffer the imprint of the paradox. These paradoxes urgently require new paradigms, the famous ‘paradigm shifts’, mentality, optics, action. The purpose of this research is to outline the main aspects of the research problem and diagnose the situation, with focus on identifying hypotheses for future descriptive or causal research as well as to explore the reasons, attitudes and values of the paradigm and paradox, which differentiate the two notions approached: testing new concepts of forecasting, a product specific to the destination under analysis and in identifying other viable, sustainable alternatives and their analysis in parallel with modelling and promoting new ideas of tourism products or services, respectively improving the existing ones. This article aims to capitalise on the paradox, already successfully applied in economics by the author of the method and in shaping and delimiting ecotourism (in particular the ecotourism from the destination Ţara Haţegului – Retezat), emphasising the role of self-contradiction of the field, through a specific type of economic reasoning, in which the rapid evolution of tourism risks are becoming its own cause of its disappearance, knowing that too much tourism kills tourism. Responsibility and the mesological spirit are the only ways to counteract the paradox phenomenon, even a paradigm in the metamorphosis of ecotourism.
Early-Age Thermal-Shrinkage Cracking in Deep Foundations

Published: December 2021

Abstract
With the growing rate of urbanisation, deep foundations are playing an ever-larger role in the development of cities, reaching deeper than before to fulfil the requirements of new constructions. While current European standards include design procedures for structural and geotechnical design, they lack provisions for massive deep foundations with regard to early-age thermal effects. This paper presents aspects of the phenomenon especially important for deep foundations and discusses normative requirements that influence their thermal behaviour. Further, the paper describes the methods and results of the research carried out in the United Kingdom on 1.50-m-thick diaphragm walls of a deep circular shaft. Shaft features are described, as well as the materials used. The measurements were carried out using vibrating wire strain gauges coupled with temperature readings. The results presented refer to one of the test panels concreted in January 2020. The temperature results are analysed together with the influence of work scheduling on the readings. Strain results that indicate contractive behaviour of the test panel are investigated together with the possible causes leading to such readings. Plans and directions for future research are discussed.

Рассмотрены вопросы уменьшения погрешности идентификации технического состояния двигателя внутреннего сгорания и его составных частей как объекта экспертизы путем настраивания параметров применяемой в измерительной экспертной системе виртуальной модели ДВС. Для настройки модели предложено применение градиентного метода, обеспечивающего наиболее быструю минимизацию погрешности идентификации
Purpose and methods. Improving the accuracy of identification for the technical condition of the internal combustion engine (ICE) in operational conditions using the engine measurement expert system (EMSE) is addressed by adjusting the computer dynamic model of the internal combustion engine. Results. Algorithmic schemes of computer models for the state of the ICE are obtained using the equations of its dynamics, which takes into account the factors such as the movement of the fuel supply body, the force on the hook - the load. The structural schemes of modeling at the input of a step-by-step action are presented. A promising method of tuning the model in the EMSE is proposed, which consists of measuring its working processes, in particular the angular acceleration of the crankshaft, for a specific brand of ICE. Then the corresponding set of models of its technical condition is obtained: normal, permissible, limit, pre-accident and emergency. By adjusting the values of the coefficients of these models in the EMSE, they achieve their coincidence with the actual state of the ICE. The identification error is minimized using the gradient method of steepest descent. The presence of several computer models is a practical advantage in the examination of the technical condition of the tested engines allowing its effective implementation in operational conditions. In this case, based on the experience of operation, the computer model closest to the actual state of the ICE is adjusted. At the same time, the efficiency of localization of ICE malfunctions increases, since the coefficients reflecting the state of the engine components and systems are consistently adjusted. Conclusions. The application of the proposed methodology using the criterion of minimizing the identification error by the gradient method allows implementation of this effective method for identifying the state of the ICE. It increases the reliability of determining the technical state of the ICE and its components by adjusting the computer model

Published: December 2021

Suroboyo Bus merupakan salah satu moda transportasi umum yang disediakan oleh pemerintah Kota Surabaya. Suroboyo Bus memberikan fasilitas penukaran tiket dengan sampah botol plastik yang dibawa oleh penumpang. Botol – botol plastik yang sudah tidak terpakai dapat disimpan dan digunakan sebagai alat tukar pembelian tiket Suroboyo Bus. Selain moda tranportasi umum yang nyaman, untuk menarik animo penumpang diperlukan suatu sistem penukaran tiket yang atraktif dan mudah digunakan. Untuk itu penelitian ini berfokus pada pengembangan sistem penukaran tiket Suroboyo Bus melalui digitalisasi penukaran tiket. Tanpa merubah esensi dari kehadiran Suroboyo Bus itu sendiri, proses penukaran sampah menjadi tiket dapat dilakukan dengan aturan penukaran yang sudah ada. Jika penukaran sampah botol plastik biasanya dilakukan di Halte Bungurasih, Halte Rajawali, dan di dalam Suroboyo Bus, penelitian kali ini membuat sebuah prototype sistem penukaran tiket menggunakan layanan operator pada halte yang ditentukan. Operator bertugas untuk mengkonversi jumlah sampah yang ditukar dengan sejumlah tiket melalui web. Web terhubung dengan database server sehingga jumlah tiket yang diperoleh dapat ditampilkan pada aplikasi android milik penumpang. Tiket elektronik yang terdapat pada aplikasi android dapat digunakan untuk naik Suroboyo Bus ketika penumpang telah melakukan scan kode QR yang terdapat pada Suroboyo Bus. Kode QR digunakan sebagai alat validasi tiket. Dengan kemudahan akses dan cara kerja yang sederhana diharapkan semakin banyak warga yang menggunakan Suroboyo Bus sebagai alat transportasi penunjang mobilitas sehingga dapat memberikan dampak yang signifikan terhadap kemacetan.
Nature connection through film
Authors: Breden Andreas 
Published: December 2021

These notes accompany two films that I have made. They are an attempt to punctuate why my connection to nature is so important to me and try to find a way to share this. I write attempt because I believe that we as human beings are ever-evolving, ever-revealing and ever-growing, and so is our relationship and connection to nature. It’s not a circular movement, but more like a spiraling one which adds one more dimension. We come back to places that are familiar but slightly different.

Incidence of Yersina enterocolitica in sheep in the south region of Iraq
Authors: Abdul Hussein Saleh Ban , Zenad Mohammed M. 
Published: December 2021

Yersiniosis is a zoonotic disease which infects many animal species. A preliminary study was done to detect the incidence of Yersinia enterocolitica in sheep. One thousand and two hundred fecal samples were collected randomly from sheep in four governorates in the southern region of Iraq: Thi-Qar, Al-Muthana, Messan and Basrah, in the period from July 2016 to June-2017. Enrichment Yersinia broth at 4°C for 48 hours was used for isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica. Selective Cefsulodin Irgasan Novobiocin and non selective media were used for bacterial culture. The identification of Yersinia enterocolitica was based on colony morphology and biochemical characters, API 20E and VITEK2 compact systems were used for the same purpose also. Data were analyzed by using SAS, Version 9-1. Chi- square test was used for comparison. The total isolation rate of Y. enterocolitica was 5.16% (62). High and low rates of isolation were recorded in Al-Muthana (6. 01%) and Basrah (3.86%). Similarly a significant high isolation rate was recorded in diarrheic sheep (17.4%), moreover the infection rate increased significantly (9.5%) in the young sheep (1day to 6 month's age). Furthermore, the recovery rate of Y. enterocolitica increased significantly during the cold months (12%) as compared with temperate and hot months (spring and summer), at the same instance, non significant variation among sex difference was detected. Fever, diarrhea and mild to moderate degree of dehydration were the most common clinical manifestations observed on the infected animals. Conclusively sheep were considered a source of infection to other species including human being, and the spread of microorganism increased markedly in the cold and wet environment.
Comparison of the immune response between local manufactured and commercial inactivated Newcastle Disease Virus vaccine in a challenge trail with field isolated Newcastle Disease Virus

Published: December 2021

Velogenic Newcastle Disease Virus was isolated from broiler chickens in Northern Iraq. An inactivated vaccine was manufactured locally using as seed virus ELD50/ml109 and then compared with commercial inactivated vaccine in an experimental study which included 120 broiler chicks divided into three groups (G1 unvaccinated control, G2 for commercial vaccine and G3 for local vaccine). The chicks were injected subcutaneously at 3 days old followed by booster Lasota live vaccine eye drop. Indirect ELISA technique was used to estimate the antibody titer from the collected sera of chicks at age 7, 17 and 27 days (pre-challenge) and challenged at 31 days old with the same virus. The results indicated that there were significant differences (P<0.05) between vaccinated group G2 and G3 at 27th day old and showed a high antibody level with high protection percentage compared with the control. G1 which shown no survival, 100% mortality and severe histopathological lesions, while in G2 and G3 was 43% and 87% respectively. Post-challenge antibody titers of survival chicks showed in G3 significantly over the G2 with less severe histopathological lesions. This study concluded that vaccine failure could occur due to factors of the immune status of the host, improper storage of vaccine, improper vaccination and variant pathogenic virus strain. More epidemiological surveillances are required to decide the actual impact of the disease in poultry farms and matching the vaccines.

Published: December 2021

Due to the visibility of soot in the environment of the Niger Delta especially Rivers State that has led to the increase of espiratory Tract Infections (RTIs) in the region, this study was undertaken to determine the relationship between Particulate Matter (PM2.5) concentration and the incident of Respiratory Tract Infections (RTIs) in selected urban centres of the Niger Delta. Data on RTIs were collected from the Hospital Management Boards of the Ministries of Health of Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta States and the data for PM2.5 were remotely sensed from 2016 to 2019, and subsequently analyzed with ANOVA and Spearman’s rank correlation statistics. The findings of this study revealed that there was significant variation in the occurrence of PM2.5 across the selected urban centres in the Niger Delta Region. The PM2.5 for the reviewed years was far above the World Health Organization (WHO) annual permissible limit of 10 µg/m3 thereby exacerbating Respiratory Tract Infections (RTIs).The epidemiology of the RTIs showed that there are basically four (4) prominent RTI diseases: Asthma, Tuberculosis, Pneumonia and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The result of this study showed that the concentration of PM2.5 varies in all the selected cities, and the mean monthly variation (2016-2019) showed that Port Harcourt had 47.27 µg/m3 for January while Yenagoa and Asaba had 46 µg/m3 and 47.51 µg/m3 respectively for January; while the lowest mean value in the cities were seen within the month of September and October, which also had a strong seasonal influence on the concentration of PM2.5. The concentration of PM2.5 and the numbers of RTIs also gradually increases in the study areas from 2016 to 2019. The study recommends that the necessary regulatory bodies should closely monitor the activities of the companies likely to cause such pollution; guild them through their operations and give prompt sanctions and heavy fines to defaulters of the accepted standards.

The Historical Anthroponymy of the Ruthenian Population Living in the Historical Territories of the Eastern Lublin Region (On the Material of Registers of Parishes in the Former Greek-Uniate Diocese of Chełm)
Authors: Kojder Marcin 
Published: December 2021

The subject of research is the anthroponymy of the Ruthenian (Ukrainian) population living in the historical territories of the eastern Lublin region on the Polish-East-Slavic borderland. The underlying objective of the study was to investigate the Ruthenian onomastics functioning in the historical Polish-Ukrainian onomastics and to highlight the territorial diversification of the personal names of Ukrainians, related to the dialectal diversity in the studied territory. The reference database is personal proper names excerpted from the parish registers of Uniate parishes in the former Chełm diocese. The territory investigated was divided into three areas: northern, central and southern, based on the ranges of the Ukrainian dialects spoken in the territory of present-day Poland. The research material was excerpted from the records of Uniate parishes in the former Chełm diocese in the years of 1662–1810.
The northern area, defined by the range of Podlasie local dialects, and the central area, determined by the ranges of transitional dialects from northern to southern ones and Volhynian dialects, exhibit features closely similar to peasant anthroponymy, while the southern area, defined by the ranges of Dniester and San dialects, presents features characteristic of the anthroponymy of the lower Ukrainian gentry.
