Median Filters for Switching Noise Mitigation in Oversampled Power Electronics Control Systems
Authors: Cvetanovic Ruzica , Petric Ivan , Mattavelli Paolo , Buso Simone 
Published: May 2023

<p>This article addresses switching noise propagation and its suppression in multi-rate control systems, where the inductor current is oversampled, digitally filtered and the control execution is decimated to single(double)-sampled pulse-width modulation (PWM). The operating points where the sampling instants occur near the switching ones are critical for switching noise sensitivity. It is shown that, when the number of the corrupted samples is high with respect to the number of samples used for filtering, typically considered moving average filters (MAFs) bring a detrimental impact. As an alternative, median filter (MED) is proposed. To decouple the ranking within MED from the switching ripple, repetitive ripple removal is added beforehand. Multi-rate PWM control with the proposed feedback filtering outperforms state-of-the-art double-sampled PWM by eliminating the well-known switching noise sensitivity for small and large duty cycles. In addition, noise-sensitive operating point regions that appear with MAF are successfully suppressed. </p>

Research on the effect of organic mulch and earthworms under oil palm plantation on the total population bacteria is still scarce. The study aims to analyze the effect of organich mulch, earthworm desity, and the interaction between organich mulch and earthworm density on the total population bacteria. The research was carried out in May – August 2019. This research was a 3 x 4 factorial experiment which was placed according to a Split Plot Design with the basic design of Randomized Block Design, each treatment was repeated 3 times. Organic mulch as the main plot are 3 type, namely: M1 (M. bracteata), M2 (oil palm empty fruit brunches/ OPEFB) and M3 (oil palm midrib). The density of earthworms as subplots consists of 4 levels, namely: C0 (0 worms/m2), C1 (35 worms/m2), C2 (50 worms/m2) and C3 (65 worms/m2). The data were analyzed using analysis of variance. If the treatment is significantly different, the treatment was tested by Duncan’s at 5% significance level. The results showed that oil palm midrib organic mulch can increase the total population of fungi and bacteria compared to M. bracteata and OPFEB. The earthworms density 50 and 65 worms/m2 can increase the total bacterial population compared to other earthworm densities. The combination of oil palm midrib with earthworms density 50 and 65 worms/m2 can increase the total population of bacteria

Utilization of peat as agricultural land faced the problem of low soil fertility. Low soil fertility made nitrogen being leached easily. One solution to overcome Nitrogen leaching and efficiency fertilizer raising used dolomite and slow decompose fertilizers. This study aims to determine the effect of dolomite on Nitrogen element leaching in several types of NPK slow decompose applied for corn cultivation in peatland and determine the best dolomite dosage and NPK slow decompose with minimum Nitrogen leaching to optimum sweet corn plant growth in peatland. This research was conducted from August to October 2018 in the Experimental Garden Technical Implementation Unit and Soil Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Riau. This research used experimentally and completely randomized design (CRD) factorial. The first factor is dolomite which consists of 4 levels (0 tons.ha-1, 2.5 tons.ha-1, 5 tons.ha-1, dan 7.5 tons.ha-1). The second is NPK slow decompose which consists of 4 levels (NPK single pearl, NPK 13: 6: 27: 4 + 0,65B Mahkota B, NPK 13: 6: 27: 4 + 0,65B Compound Plus Hi-Kay and NPK 13: 8: 27: 4 MgO Ztick). The results showed the administration of dolomite 23.55 g per tube and NPK slow decomposed could reduce Nitrogen leaching, improve physiology and growth of sweet corn plants. Provision of interaction between dolomite 5 ton.ha-1 with NPK slow decomposition (30.25 N, 3.72 P, 12.56 g per tube) produces the best interaction that can reduce the proportion of Nitrogen leaching and it can affects the increasing of plant growth.

Armyworm (Spodoptera exigua Hubner.) is the main pest of acacia. Controlling such pests generally uses synthetic insecticides, which cause negative impacts such as they would resistance & resurgence, environmental pollution, residual effects, secondary pest explosions, and reduced biodiversity. We need an alternative in pest control, such as using parasitoid Trichogramma japonicum. This study aims to test the parasitism after the release of Trichogramma japonicum on Spodoptera exigua eggs in Acacia crassicarpa nurseries. The research was carried out at the Kerinci Central Nursery PT. RAPP on October 2019-March 2020. The research started with exploring, rearing and releasing parasitoid Trichogramma japonicum. The treatment was plotted with and without releasing Trichogramma japonicum on Spodoptera exigua eggs for seven days of observation and analyzed using T-test at a 5% level. The significance of Trichogramma japonicum parasitized eggs in Spodoptera exigua eggs was 41.9% after releasing parasitoids in Acacia crassicarpa nurseries. The highest parasitization by Trichogramma japonicum was in the 3rd plot with an average parasitization of 53.8% and the lowest was in the 1st plot with an average 31.3% parasitization. Trichogramma japonicum that emerged from the total mass of eggs brought to the laboratory after parasitized eggs were 14.2%.

The Need for Faith that Endures (Matt 17:14-20): An Exegetical Reflection for Christians Today
Authors: Dim Emmanuel U. 
Published: May 2023

The possibility of someone claiming to be a follower of Christ without having sufficient faith, or even any faith at all, is clearly highlighted by Jesus himself in this text under consideration. Hence, his healing of the boy possessed by a demon, after his disciples’ curious inability to do the same, made Jesus to decry the faithlessness and perversity of that generation of his followers as they also faced the imminence of his final departure from this world (Matt 17:17). This led to Jesus’ insistence that for his followers to be meaningfully so, the need for faith, that is even as small as a mustard seed, is imperative (Matt 17:20). This paper aims at a deep study of that text of Matt 17:14-20 so as to bring out, as much as possible, how the behaviour of Jesus’ disciples as well as the injunctions of Jesus therein would be of greater benefit to the Christians of this day and age. The methodology employed in the study is theological-sociological, augmented with the Historical Critical method which is used particularly in the exegesis of that biblical text. All these have helped to throw more light on the mind of Jesus in that text especially, revealing also that the situation of faithlessness, decried by him, seems to be even more pronounced in this day and age, mainly, on account of the rapid developments in science and technology, particularly in the area of communication – otherwise also known as the social media. These advancements, although veritably beneficial to humanity, tend, however, to also precipitate a loss of interest on matters which are not purely scientific, so to speak, especially faith and religion – often leading to the weakening of the faith of many Christians as well as its active practice or even the outright abandonment of the same, especially by the youth. Therefore, this paper recommends that Christians have to go the extra mile in nourishing their faith, especially through its more active and dynamic expression, so as to make it ever relevant to all epochs, including this digital age – the role of Christian leaders in that task being, in the main, indispensable. This, then, leads to the significance of this paper in the emphasis that the knowledge of God and, hence faith in and worship of him in Christianity, for example, actually enhance human dignity instead of undermining or destroying it. Thus, the clear consciousness of this axiom and its application in practice, the author maintains, would naturally lead Christians today, and indeed humankind, to a life of general fulfilment, ultimate balance and equilibrium even amidst the many advancements in science and technology in this day and age.

Published: May 2023

The increasing number of patients living with cancer as a chronic disease stresses the importance of paying attention to rehabilitative and psychosocial care which is the major role of oncology social workers. The study aimed at appraising the knowledge and practice of oncology social workers among cancer patients in UNTH. The study adopted the questionnaire and in-depth interview guide in generating data to answer research questions and test hypotheses. Responses to questionnaire were elicited from 574 respondents while the in-depth interview had 10 participants. Responses to questionnaire were analyzed quantitatively using SPSS version 20, while those for in-depth interview were analyzed thematically to complement the quantitative data. Hypotheses were tested using Chi-square (χ2), while the long-run significance of certain predictor variables on the dependent variable was ascertained using binary logistic regression. Findings from the study revealed that majority of respondents had no knowledge of oncology social work. Place of residence and level of education had significant relationship with knowledge of oncology social work at (p<0.000) and (p<0.038) respectively, while patient status had no significant relationship with benefits from oncology social work services; they were all confirmed in the binary logistic regression analysis except level of education. Given the poor knowledge of oncology social work among cancer patients, the study established a case for social work. Therefore, specific programmes like outreach programmes and enlightenment campaigns on the importance of oncology social work for cancer patients of all socio-economic background as well as those with lower level of education, their families, health practitioners among others should be made available with the aim of improving their knowledge and accessibility of oncology social work.
