Authors: Alhilo Intisar A. , Ismael Kamoona Ghada M. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
One of the key variables that can affect energy consumption in a building is the shape of the structure. The current study aims to balance the using solar radiation (lighting, heating, and cooling) and energy consumption by analyzing climatic factors’ effect on building formation systems’ standards. The research shows the mechanism of reaching optimal solutions in building performance problems using evolutionary algorithms as a reliable strategy. By examining the formation of compact fabric elements, the mass of the building on the site is compared with the parametric model adapted to the context to find out the negatives and positives according to the heat gain for each. The research relied on analytical and descriptive methods to clarify the determinants. The analysis included three main axes, the urban characteristics, the urban climatic compatibility in the study area, and parametric analysis. According to the results, shaped building blocks can simultaneously enhance indoor daylight levels and energy performance. Using the framework as a reference model can increase the chances of solving complex urban design problems earlier and recommend sustainable building designs.
Investigation of hybrid chalcogenide photonic crystal fiber for MIR supercontinuum generation and optical communication
Authors: Jain Sandeep Kumar , Sharma Mohit Kumar , Vyas Sandeep 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This study describes a wideband supercontinuum generation (SCG) in the mid-infrared range using a chalcogenide multi-material microstructured fiber design with significant non-linearity under optical communication. The fiber has a single core of As2Se3 and three rings of As2S5 rods arranged in hexagonal pattern in the AsSe2 cladding region. The reported PCF design has effective area and nonlinear coefficients as 59.4174 μm2 and 219.36 W−1 km−1 respectively at 5.3 μm pump wavelength. Additionally, it has a chromatic dispersion profile that is nearly zero and flattened over a large wavelength range of 5–15 µm, which is advantageous for broadband supercontinuum spectrum in the mid-infrared region. Specifically, with pulse width and pulse peak power of 200 fs and 10 kW, respectively, for a 100 mm fibre length, this research work illustrates the SCG that expands from 1000 nm to over 15,000 nm. These extremely nonlinear PCFs are robust contenders for applications that are nonlinear in nature, such as the generation of slow-light and supercontinuum.
Verification and validation optimization method for signal quality bits in digital control system application software of nuclear power plant
Authors: Wang Lingzhi , Wu Yichun 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The digitalization enhances nuclear power plant (NPP) instrumentation and control (I&C) system performance, while simultaneously introducing safety and reliability challenges. To enhance the stability of distributed control system (DCS), and minimize the dangerous failure rate and safe failure rate of safety system, signal quality bits (SQBs) are widely used in NPP DCS to identify the validity of important signals. However, in the past decade or so, numerous unscheduled turbine shutdowns and/or reactor trips have resulted from incorrect SQB design or settings. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct optimization research on the design methods and setting principles of SQBs, establish an optimization method for DCS application software SQB verification and validation (V&V), then minimize DCS faults attributed to SQB. With the aim, this work conducts an in-depth investigation and analysis of the definition, design, setting and transmission of SQB in NPP. A specific optimization method for software V&V to conduct SQB on NPP safety DCS application software is proposed. Twelve concerns in the SQB V&V work are detailed. The reactor trip system ΔT protection logic is utilized as a case to illustrate the detail implementation process of this optimization method. This work provides an engineering technical reference and operational guidance for SQB software V&V, conducive to ensuring the safe and economical operation of NPPs.
Deciphering between enhanced light emission and absorption in multi-mode porphyrin cavity polariton samples
Authors: Odewale Elizabeth O. , Avramenko Aleksandr G. , Rury Aaron S. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
It remains unclear how the collective strong coupling of cavity-confined photons to the electronic transitions of molecular chromophore leverages the distinct properties of the polaritonic constituents for future technologies. In this study, we design, fabricate, and characterize multiple types of Fabry-Pérot (FP) mirco-resonators containing copper(II) tetraphenyl porphyrin (CuTPP) to show how cavity polariton formation affects radiative relaxation processes in the presence of substantial non-Condon vibronic coupling between two of this molecule’s excited electronic states. Unlike the prototypical enhancement of Q state radiative relaxation of CuTPP in a FP resonator incapable of forming polaritons, we find the light emission processes in multimode cavity polariton samples become enhanced for cavity-exciton energy differences near those of vibrations known to mediate non-Condon vibronic coupling. We propose the value of this detuning is consistent with radiative relaxation of Herzberg-Teller polaritons into collective molecular states coupled to the cavity photon coherently. We contrast the feature stemming from light emission from the HT polariton state with those that occur due to polariton-enhanced light absorption. Our results demonstrate the landscape of molecular and photonic interactions enabled by cavity polariton formation using complex chromophores and how researchers can design resonators to leverage these interactions to characterize and control polaritonic properties.

Creating World Views: Work-Expenditure Calculations for Funnel Beaker Megalithic Graves and Flint Axe Head Depositions in Northern Germany
Authors: Wunderlich Maria , Müller Michael , Behrens Anja 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThe creation, maintenance, and modification of prehistoric built spaces and structural landscapes required communities that engaged and interacted collectively. Starting from the appearance of early monumentality and depositional behaviour in Funnel Beaker communities, we trace the variation in this phenomenon among three study areas in what is now northern Germany. In doing so, we build on a specific perspective and approach, namely that of work-expenditure calculations for megalithic graves and flint axe heads. In the process, variable dynamics of construction and deposition activities within the Early and Middle Neolithic are revealed, which we regard as differentiated translations of widespread impulses, adapted to the needs of different socio-cultural communities. The similar developments seen in flint axe head depositions and in the construction of megalithic monuments are indicative of evolving spaces of memory, landscapes of cooperative collaboration, and an increasing structuring of local environments that seem to follow a specific understanding of, and interaction with, space.
Pattern identification in data about unmodified waste eggshell application as an adsorbent for metal ion removal from aqueous media
Authors: Sics Pavels , Kalnina Daina , Levina Aviva 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
In recent years, a significant increase in the amount of research published about the application of eggshells for the removal of metal ions from aqueous solutions has been observed. The paper presents different aspects of metal adsorption from aqueous solutions on untreated eggshells. Pretreatment procedures and tested parameters for the adsorption differ significantly across all the reviewed data, providing a source of variance for the results. For untreated eggshells, the range of the reported BET surface area is from 0.07 m2/g to 8.941 m2/g. Correlation between particle size and BET surface area has been highlighted. Reported removal efficiencies for the untreated eggshell have been compared. Reported results show that eggshell is most employed for the removal of Pb(II), Cd(II), and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions. Eggshell capacity to remove metal ions from the main group elements has also been demonstrated. While results look promising, not enough data are present to make reliable conclusions about its efficiency with other (mainly transition) metal ions – which makes it a possible research direction. Based on the reported data, multiple removal pathways are involved. Several eggshell modification methods and possibilities of creating new adsorbents using eggshells only as a part of the raw material have been assessed. Finally reported eggshell modification methods have been assessed and it is clear that to compare different material’s effectiveness as an adsorbent, comparing only materials adsorption capacities is insufficient. Certain environmental water pollution removal studies using adsorption demand further study, such as metal ion specification in aqueous solution, in different processing water, and even in wastewater.
The Politics of Covid-19 Vaccination Hesitancy in Southeastern Europe
Authors: Glaurdić Josip , Lesschaeve Christophe 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The execution of Covid-19 vaccination drives in former Yugoslavia’s successor states has been disappointing. The rapidly evolving literature on the Covid-19 pandemic suggests the levels of support for vaccination are correlated with education, trust in public-health institutions, and exposure to the negative economic and health effects of the pandemic. The explanations of the political foundations of vaccination hesitancy, however, need better empirical grounding. We shed light on this subject by analyzing the results of a survey conducted on more than six thousand respondents from Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, and Serbia, as well as a combination of public-health, economic, and sociodemographic data across more than five hundred municipalities in Croatia. Most notably, we find the political sources of vaccination hesitancy to be strongly related to people’s support for the ideas of political parties committed to nationalist populism.
“Till Corona Sets Us Apart”: Emerging Vaccination Risks among Serbian Parents in the Netherlands
Authors: Brujić Marija 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
In developed European Union (EU) countries, migrants are thought to be less likely to have their children fully vaccinated. To investigate this idea, this study examines parental perceptions of child vaccination during the Covid-19 pandemic. It is based on semi-structured interviews with 42 Serbian migrants in the Netherlands, conducted in the summer of 2020. The aim was to determine if the pandemic changed these parents’ attitudes towards the Dutch healthcare system and vaccination in general. The paper’s theoretical framework juxtaposes a “risk society” approach with a governmentality approach. The majority of the parents surveyed had had their children vaccinated according to the Dutch national vaccination programme. However, the study shows that many Serbian migrants had negative attitudes towards the then forthcoming SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. I therefore conclude that new vaccines, such as the Covid-19 vaccine, act as risk technologies which create a new “risk environment” rather than being perceived as preventive health measures.
Covid-19 Mortality Shock: Demographic and Economic Losses in Moldova
Authors: Kozlov Vladimir , Pahomii Irina , Gagauz Olga , Šmit Jelena 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This contribution discusses the problem of Covid-19 demographic and economic losses in Moldova. Although the pandemic is now no longer in the headlines, it is essential to understand how severe it was in Southeastern Europe. To illustrate this, the present study uses the example of the Republic of Moldova as a country with relatively high excess mortality. The Covid-19 mortality pattern in Moldova appears typical for the Eastern European and post-Soviet countries, with a decline in life expectancy for 2020–2021 and a more substantial decline for women. One of the main explanations for this pattern is the failure of the vaccination campaign, partly due to the population’s lack of trust in the healthcare system. The National Transfer Accounts approach is suggested to estimate economic losses. As a reference country for comparing the pandemic losses in Moldova, the present study uses Serbia, which was also strongly affected by the pandemic.
Healthcare: Public Policies, Social Practices, and Individual Experiences. An Introduction
Authors: Mircheva Gergana , Popova Olga 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This thematic section focuses on health as a multilayered political, economic, and cultural phenomenon. Based on case studies from Southeastern Europe, the four articles in the section pose research questions that are important for understanding the interplay between personal experiences of using healthcare services, trust in the healthcare system, and the governance of healthcare service provision in the region. The articles build on complementary perspectives on individual experiences of interacting with healthcare providers, social issues, and public health strategies, drawing a multidimensional “health map” with interrelated but sometimes diverging arguments. This allows a better understanding of the issues of health and illness in turbulent times of social crises and provides a conceptual basis for healthcare policies in Southeastern Europe.
Optimization of Data Quality Objective on Ammonia Nitrogen System in Water through ASTM Top-Down Approach for Independence Identical Distribution
Authors: Wang Douwen , Sun Zhijing , Zhang Weiqi , Ma Dongchang 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) coming from the instantaneous effluent in urban water is something that is necessary to measure through routine testing. In order to reduce the long-term potentially harmful impacts to ecosystems and human health, we monitor the NH3-N system through an ASTM top-down approach. As the background effect treatments have been debated, the actual extraction efficiency (naturally existing matrix matched) may not be measured for unstable samples greatly fluctuated in wastewater. In this article, we do not spike the matrixes at multiple concentrations; instead, we directly use the parallel samples, within each level consistent differing from each other by up to 5 %. To determine whether the residual or pretreated results derived from the NH3-N system are under the independence identical distribution, we recommend using the more robust Anderson Darling (AD) hypothesis test for the confirmation. If the AD null hypothesis is held, we can believe that the reliability of NH3-N system is validated, and, under the site precision (sR′), incorporate all cumulative effects, even with the interaction and matrix, into the data quality objective (DQO) of the NH3-N system. Our DQO, with variations across all matrices, can be compared to the results obtained historically or subsequently, or with ASTM performance. Our final goal is to meet clients’ needs in a way that allows for operation of the NH3-N system that is consistent, impartial, and competent.
Bilirubin Measurement and Phototherapy Use After the AAP 2022 Newborn Hyperbilirubinemia Guideline
Authors: Sarathy Leela , Chou Joseph H. , Romano-Clarke Giuseppina , Darci Katherine A. , Lerou Paul H. 
Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Guidelines for the management of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia have helped to reduce rates of significant hyperbilirubinemia. However, recent evidence suggesting overtreatment and potential harms of phototherapy have informed the American Academy of Pediatrics clinical practice guideline revision and the accompanying increase in phototherapy thresholds. These changes are predicted to safely reduce overuse; however, to date, the exact effect of these guidelines has not been established.

METHODS
We conducted a retrospective study of newborns born at ≥35 weeks’ gestation across a network of 8 hospitals between January 2022 and June 2023. Outcomes included rates of phototherapy and total serum bilirubin (TSB) measurements before and after guideline publication, as well as clinical outcomes, including length of stay, readmissions, and duration of phototherapy.

RESULTS
In our cohort of &gt;22 000 newborns, we observed a 47% decrease in phototherapy utilization, from 3.9% to 2.1% (P &lt; .001). TSB measurements were reduced by 23%, from 712 to 551 measurements per 1000 newborns (P &lt; .001), without an increase in outpatient TSB measurements. We did not observe an increase in readmissions receiving phototherapy, and length of stay increased by only 1 hour (P &lt; .001).

CONCLUSIONS
Our study reveals that the publication of the updated American Academy of Pediatrics 2022 hyperbilirubinemia guidelines has likely yielded a significant reduction in phototherapy use and serum bilirubin measurement. Dedicated quality improvement initiatives may help determine which implementation strategies are most effective. Further population-level studies are needed to confirm safety with ongoing guideline uptake.
Relación entre Educación Ambiental y Química Ambiental en trabajos de grado de Licenciaturas en Química en Colombia
Authors: Saavedra-Aleman Martha Janneth , Duarte-Boada María del Mar 
Published: March 2024

En este artículo de investigación se estableció el análisis de la relación entre la química ambiental y la educación ambiental a partir de los trabajos de grado presentados entre los años 2015 a 2019 en los programas de licenciatura en química en Colombia. De los seis programas de licenciatura en química existentes en el país, solo se tuvieron en cuenta dos programas que son los que se encuentran certificados con acreditación de alta calidad, con el objetivo de evidenciar si los contenidos se centran en educación o si se desarrollan solamente desde lo disciplinar o, por el contrario, si se relacionan. De esta forma, se planteó una metodología en la que, en principio, se llevó a cabo una revisión y organización documental de los trabajos de grado a partir de los siguientes parámetros clasificatorios: rango de tiempo, palabras claves, universidades que ofrecen los programas de licenciatura en química. Luego, a partir de los documentos seleccionados, se clasificó su contenido: los de educación ambiental en corrientes y los de química ambiental en esferas. Una vez analizados los datos, se plantearon unas categorías combinadas que ofrecieron una perspectiva de la relación entre la química ambiental y la educación ambiental, encontrándose que la relación con mayor tendencia es el uso de los contenidos desde la química ambiental, la esfera antropósfera, así como desde la educación ambiental la corriente científica. Lo anterior evidenció que la mayor parte de las investigaciones realizadas en los trabajos de grado son orientadas al estudio de la actividad humana abordando lo ambiental desde la ciencia y permitiendo identificar campos de investigación que no han sido abordados.
Anisotropic Characterization of the Chukchi Boardland Based on Ocean-Bottom Seismic Experiment during N11-CHINARE

Published: March 2024

Abstract
The current research focus at Chukchi Boardland (CB) revolves around sediment stratification and crustal structure, but investigations into deep stress fields and mantle dynamics are limited. This article presents a study on the anisotropic characteristics of the CB. Shear-wave splitting measurements were conducted using the transverse energy minimization at six stations recovered from the 11th Chinese National Arctic Research Expedition. The observation period for these six stations ranged from 2 August 2020 to 8 September 2020. The results demonstrate significant anisotropy within the CB, with the fast shear-wave polarization direction ranging from N60°E to N70°E. The time delays between fast and slow shear waves were found to be ∼0.7 s. By comparing the anisotropy observed at the CB with that at land stations in Arctic Alaska, this study suggested that the genesis of anisotropy beneath the CB was related to the formation of the Amerasian basin. The tectonic processes of rifting during basin evolution and midocean ridge spreading led to the development of anisotropy in the lithosphere beneath the CB during expansion.
Along-Strike Variation of Rupture Characteristics and Aftershock Patterns of the 2023 Mw 7.8 Türkiye Earthquake Controlled by Fault Structure

Published: March 2024

Abstract
On 6 February 2023, an Mw 7.8 earthquake occurred along the East Anatolian fault zone (EAFZ) in southeastern Türkiye, representing the strongest earthquake in the region in nearly 80 yr. We investigate rupture characteristics and aftershock patterns of the earthquake through focal mechanism calculation, backprojection analysis, and finite-fault inversion. The results show bilateral rupture propagation of the mainshock with transient supershear speed in the southwest portion of the EAFZ, as well as shallower coseismic slip and abundant normal-faulting aftershocks in the same portion. We attribute these earthquake behaviors to the along-strike variation of fault structure of the EAFZ, which features a more complex fault geometry accompanied by numerous short normal faults in the southwest portion. These results shed light on fault segmentation, rupture speed variation, and slip partitioning along the EAFZ, advancing our understanding of fault structural control on earthquake behaviors in a complex multisegment fault system.
Sobre la posibilidad de celebrar actuaciones procesales digitales (en particular las vistas) en el orden social de la jurisdicción tras los últimos vaivenes normativos
Authors: Tascón López Rodrigo 
Published: March 2024

En la actualidad, el Orden Social de la Jurisdicción padece una situación que dista mucho de ser la ideal, con retrasos que a fuer de excesivos resultan injustificados, con riesgo de acabar por lesionar el derecho fundamental a la tutela judicial efectiva, como ha tenido que declarar el máximo intérprete de la Constitución. Frente a esta situación, y junto con otras soluciones posibles (de forma señera, la mayor dotación de medios materiales y humanos), la tecnología se presenta como un bálsamo de fierabrás, potencial remedio que puede ofrecer soluciones para (casi) todos los males que sufren los tribunales laborales.En concreto, el presente ensayo plantea para el debate si la celebración de actuaciones procesales digitales (en especial, aun cuando no solo, las vistas) podría contribuir a mejorar el desenvolvimiento (y la celeridad) de los Tribunales laborales, llegando a una conclusión afirmativa, aun cuando matizada especialmente a la vista de las últimas reformas habidas en materia procesal.
