Authors: Rizqi Nurhana Tri , Mantiri Ruben Leopoldo 
Published: August 2024

This study concentrated on examining metaphor in three Katy Perry songs: Fireworks, Hot n Cold, and Roar. The data in this study were analyzed using qualitative research. According to the findings, there were seven different sorts of metaphors utilized in the three Katy Perry songs. Active metaphor, subjective metaphor, mimetic metaphor, phenomenalistic metaphor, precision metaphor, symbolic metaphor, and approximately metaphor were the seven types of metaphor employed and defined. Overall, based on our analysis, Katy Perry did an excellent job of conveying the idea of the song; she compares a condition of affairs to making it more exciting, and her usage of the word is more varied and broader.
Positive solution for a nonlinear elliptic equation on symmetric domains
Authors: Faria Luiz F. O. , Montenegro Marcelo 
Published: August 2024

We show the existence of a positive solution for the Schrodinger quasilinear equation with variable exponents above the critical regime. For that matter, we show an embedding into an Orlicz space of functions modeled over radially symmetric domains. Then we use a Galerkin method combined with a fixed-point argument to obtain a solution.

Evolution of non-university digital teacher training in Spain: a comparison among different regions
Authors: Napal María , Contreras Cintado Eduardo 
Published: August 2024

In recent decades, Information and Communication Technologies have gained significant relevance in all areas of society, including the field of education. This is due, among other reasons, to the transformative methodological potential they present and their multiple possibilities in teaching and learning processes. The presence of digital infrastructure within schools is crucial for integrating technology into them, but it is also necessary for teachers to know how to use it in a didactic and pedagogical way with students. Generally, digital training for teachers has focused more on understanding the tools and their most basic functions than on their pedagogical use within the classrooms. This study analyzes the number and themes of digital training courses offered to teachers by Spanish educational administrations, classifying them into two main areas: (i) knowledge of tools and initiation, and (ii) didactics and curricular content. The results show a change in the content of these teacher training programs over time.

Constitutionalism: issues of legal thought
Authors: Byelov Dmytro , Bielova Miroslava 
Published: August 2024

It is noted that establishing criteria for evaluating legal concepts remains one of the unresolved problems in law. Their interpretation often depends more on the subjective view of the legislator or scholar than on legal logic. At the same time, even the most detailed definition cannot encompass the full diversity of legal relations and be universally applicable. Therefore, formulating precise concepts in constitutional law is complicated by the fact that the theory and practice of national and international constitutionalism are still developing, and their terminological apparatus is still forming.
It is pointed out that the concept of “constitutionalism” has become firmly established in modern scientific discourse. Although the term has humanitarian origins, today it finds application in the natural sciences as well. However, “constitutionalism” is most often used in the humanities, especially in jurisprudence.
It is emphasized that most modern states have constitutions that define their structure and procedures for managing various spheres of life. However, the presence of a constitution is not a sufficient condition for recognizing a state as constitutional. The constitutionality of a state is not limited to the existence of a basic law, which may reflect a certain compromise of socio-political forces and establish the state structure and powers of authorities. Even if this law has supremacy over other laws and can be changed only by a special procedure, this does not guarantee true constitutionalism. Thus, a state can have a constitution but not have constitutionalism, and vice versa. The authors conclude that despite the diversity of models of constitutionalism, common principles can be identified that characterize it as a legal concept:

The supremacy of legal laws, particularly the constitution as the fundamental law;
Legal protection of individual rights and freedoms;
Institutional and legal organization of state power with horizontal and vertical distribution.

It is important to note that the universality of these principles is associated with the transformation of Western society from a religious worldview to a rational perception of the world. This change influenced the ideas about the state and society, contributed to the formation of classical liberal civil society and the concept of an autonomous individual.
La représentation synecdochique du corps et le syndrome narratif dans Truismes de Marie Darrieussecq
Authors: REMADNIA Nouha 
Published: August 2024

Dans cet article, nous tentons de voir comment Marie Darrieussecq met en œuvre l’image de la femme animalisée dans son récit Truismes. Le personnage-protagoniste se métamorphose et perd totalement son identité. Utilisée dans un processus de symbolisation, la synecdoque est un outil stylistique fortement utilisé par l’auteure, en l’occurrence, pour focaliser l’attention du lecteur sur les parties du corps qui se défigurent et prennent une autre couleur. L’analyse montre que les procédés de substitution poussent à l’extrême l’image de la femme oppressée. Cet état fait appel à d’autres dans l’univers textuel de l’auteure, et nous conduisent à constater que ce dernier fait du corps féminin, un thème qui tourne à l’obsession, un leitmotiv qui dessine le syndrome narratif.
A study of “Womanhood” as Symbols to Further Colonial, Nationalist, and Religious Communal Agendas in the Indian subcontinent
Authors: Shahrear Faisal Hafiz , Mahim Saif Mahmood 
Published: August 2024

This study delves into the historical exploitation of women as symbols to advance colonial, nationalist, and religious communal agendas, particularly focusing on the Indian subcontinent. Through an analysis of various events, including the British response to widow immolation, the Bengal Renaissance, and the aftermath of the Partition of India, the study highlights how women’s plight was manipulated to serve broader political goals. Drawing from sources such as Tanika Sarkar’s Rebels, Wives, Saints and Urvashi Butalia’s The Other Side of Silence, the study underscores the dual nature of women’s victimization: first by patriarchal structures and then by the instrumentalization of their suffering to bolster ideological narratives. It argues that despite purported humanitarian concerns, women’s agency and well-being were often overlooked, with their experiences reduced to mere symbols in the pursuit of power and national identity. This study aims to shed light on the complex intersections of gender, politics, and power dynamics in historical contexts. Examining the instrumentalization of women’s suffering for political ends prompts reflection on the ethical implications of using marginalized groups as symbols to promote ostensibly progressive agendas.

Optimal Suppression of Photocatalytic Activity of Hybrid TiO2 Particles in Epoxy Thin Film by Using Taguchi Method
Authors: Muniandy Sunderishwary S. , Soon Tan Sek , Pung Swee Yong , Ramakrishnan Sivakumar 
Published: August 2024

In this study, two different Al2O3-TiO2 and SiO2-TiO2 hybrid TiO2 particles were synthesised by using silica (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) to suppress the photocatalysis of TiO2. Key variables such as the concentration of the hybridization material (C), heating temperature (Th), and calcinating temperature (Tc) were selected with performance measured by photodegradation rate. The Taguchi L9 orthogonal array, a systematic approach used in the design of experiments (DOE), confirmed A333 (Al2O3-TiO2) achieved 99% photodegradation suppression with photodegradation rate reduced significantly from 0.01305 min−1 to 0.00009 min−1 and improved yellowing resistance by 63%, while S323 (SiO2-TiO2) achieved 75% suppression with photocatalysis activity decreased from 0.01305 min−1 to 0.0033 min−1 and 42% improved resistance. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis showed A333 had a higher rutile phase (40.1% vs. 10.2% for S323), and Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) analyses revealed A333's rougher surface and lower surface area compared to S323 and pure TiO2. Overall, A333 effectively suppressed photocatalysis and improved yellowing resistance of epoxy thin film. Copyright © 2024 by Authors, Published by BCREC Publishing Group.

Direct and ozone‐mediated forcing of the Southern Annular Mode by greenhouse gases
Authors: Morgenstern Olaf , Zeng Guang , Dean Sam M. , Joshi Manoj , Abraham N. Luke , Osprey Annette 
Published: November 2014

AbstractWe assess the roles of long‐lived greenhouse gases and ozone depletion in driving meridional surface pressure gradients in the southern extratropics; these gradients are a defining feature of the Southern Annular Mode. Stratospheric ozone depletion is thought to have caused a strengthening of this mode during summer, with increasing long‐lived greenhouse gases playing a secondary role. Using a coupled atmosphere‐ocean chemistry‐climate model, we show that there is cancelation between the direct, radiative effect of increasing greenhouse gases by the also substantial indirect—chemical and dynamical—feedbacks that greenhouse gases have via their impact on ozone. This sensitivity of the mode to greenhouse gas‐induced ozone changes suggests that a consistent implementation of ozone changes due to long‐lived greenhouse gases in climate models benefits the simulation of this important aspect of Southern Hemisphere climate.
The Ronda peridotite (Spain): A natural template for seismic anisotropy in subduction wedges
Authors: Précigout Jacques , Almqvist Bjarne S. G. 
Published: November 2014

AbstractThe origin of seismic anisotropy in mantle wedges remains elusive. Here we provide documentation of shear wave anisotropy (AVs) inferred from mineral fabric across a lithosphere‐scale vestige of deformed mantle wedge in the Ronda peridotite. As predicted for most subduction wedges, this natural case exposes a transition from A‐type to B‐type olivine fabric that occurs with decreasing temperature and enhanced grain boundary sliding at the expense of dislocation creep. We show that B‐type fabric AVs (maximum of 6%) does not support geophysical observations and modeling, which requires 8% AVs. However, an observed transitional olivine fabric (A/B) develops at intermediate temperatures (800–1000°C) and can generate AVs ≥ 8%. We predict that the A/B‐type fabric can account for shear wave splitting in contrasting subduction settings, exemplified by the Ryukyu and Honshu subduction wedges. The Ronda peridotite therefore serves as a natural template to decipher the mantle wedge deformation from seismic anisotropy.
What do triple‐frequency radar signatures reveal about aggregate snowflakes?
Authors: Leinonen J. , Moisseev D. 
Published: November 2014

AbstractA large data set of volume element models of aggregate snowflakes was created, building the snowflakes from various models of ice crystals found in the atmosphere: dendrites, needles, plates, and bullet rosettes, as well as spheroidal crystals for comparison. Several different sizes for the constituent crystals were also used. The radar backscattering cross sections of the snowflakes were computed from the models using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) at 13.6 GHz (Ku band), 35.6 GHz (Ka band) and 94.0 GHz (W band), and the effects of the choice of crystal model and size on the Ku/Ka band and Ka/W band dual‐wavelength ratios (DWR) was investigated. It was found that the aggregate DWRs were very similar for all naturally occurring ice crystal types investigated in this study. This implies that the choice of crystal type is at most of secondary importance in the forward model of scattering used for snowfall retrievals but also, conversely, that the identification of the crystal type from triple‐frequency observations is likely to be difficult. In contrast, the size of the constituent ice crystals does have a nonnegligible impact on the triple‐frequency signatures. Additionally, it was found that the triple‐frequency signatures found in some experimental data, resembling those resulting from spheroidal model snowflakes, cannot be reproduced using the aggregates with any of the crystal types that were investigated. This suggests that besides aggregation, other mechanisms of snowflake formation from ice crystals must be considered in snowfall retrieval algorithms.
Tomographic and spectral views on the lifecycle of polar mesospheric clouds from Odin/OSIRIS
Authors: Hultgren Kristoffer , Gumbel Jörg 
Published: November 2014

AbstractVertical and horizontal structures of Polar Mesospheric Clouds (PMC) have been recovered by tomographic retrieval from the OSIRIS instrument aboard the Odin satellite. The tomographic algorithm has been used to return local scattering coefficients at seven wavelengths in the ultraviolet. This spectral information is used to retrieve PMC particle sizes, number density, and ice mass density. While substantial horizontal variations are found, local vertical structures are overall consistent with the idea of a growth‐sedimentation process leading to a visible cloud. Large numbers of small particles are present near the top of the observed cloud layer. Toward lower altitudes, particle sizes increase while particle number densities decrease. A close relationship is found between the distribution of local PMC scattering coefficient and ice mass density. The bottom of the cloud often features large particles with mode radii exceeding 70 nm that rain out of the cloud before sublimating. The number density of these large particles is small, and they do not contribute significantly to the overall cloud brightness. As a consequence, the presence of these large particles can be difficult to identify for remote sensing techniques that integrate over the entire cloud column. When it comes to deriving absolute values of particle mode radius and number density, there is a strong sensitivity to assumptions on the mathematical form of the particle size distribution. We see a continued strong need to resolve this issue by co‐analysis of various remote sensing techniques and observation geometries.
