Personal Identity and Death Concern—Philosophical and Developmental Perspectives

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The substance of this chapter is this relationship between the concepts of personal identity, the concept of an individual as this is constructed in developmental theories, and death concern. The chapter starts the present discussion from a presentation of some well-known puzzles of personal identity. Many imaginary scenarios involving puzzles of personal identity have been proposed to advance the philosophical investigation of the topic. The chapter focuses on just a few of the numerous puzzles that have been proposed so far. An analysis of care along the lines provided by Nozick and perhaps with special attention paid to the annihilation issue will thus suggest that, after all, no liberation from the self was achieved by the philosophical analysis. The chapter briefly reviews several developmental approaches that deal with old age as a special period of time and/or with the notion of transcending the limits of the self as part of the process of development.

Role of Government in Expanding Solar Energy in Bangladesh

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

Purpose: To examine loan financing in promoting solar energy use in the islands areas of Sandwip, Kutubdia and Hatia. Methodology: A household survey method using questionnaires was used to collect primary data for the study from three island areas. The 300 samples were obtained using a random sampling technique. To analyze the data, SPSS 22 has been used. Calculations of percentage, mean, and standard deviation have been made in order to compare the data in both tabular and graphical formats. Findings: Prominent results of the research indicate that most participants acquired solar panels through loans, with BRAC being the top provider of loans to respondents in the sample who use solar panels. However, the respondents suggested offer interest-free Government loans in order to reduce the price of solar accessories. Practical Implications: Thus, to achieve sustainable development, banks and other financial institutions must be strengthened; the bond and equity markets must grow; a well-coordinated policy oversight body is required; and green finance must be mainstreamed. Originality: This paper examine how the loan advantage are disseminating to the users in the sample areas. Research Limitations: Most of the island areas in Bangladesh still remain detached from the national grid electricity. Access to these island areas is a bit hurdle-crossing job. So considering time and cost constraints the authors are not able to take a large sample from different islands areas, which might appear less representative towards addressing to the objectives of the study.
Tensions and turning points: exploring teacher decision-making in a complex eLearning environment

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Understanding how university teachers experience and respond to imperatives to integrate digital technologies into their curricula and teaching practice is essential for addressing the gap between the potential of such technologies to articulate with institutional objectives and their uptake by university teachers. This article reports on a study in a regional Australian university focused on capturing the complex ways that individual and contextual factors can interact to support or impede the integration of technology into teaching practice. The lens of cultural-historical activity theory is used to describe and interpret the complex activity of designing and teaching a blended-mode course from the perspective of an experienced lecturer. An analytical focus on emergent tensions and the identification of turning points as markers of critical encounters requiring the lecturer to make decisions and take action provides an insight into potential transformations in their thinking and practice.
Optimizing STEM Learning in SDN Bringinan with Interactive PhET Technology

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This program aimed to enhance STEM education at SDN Bringinan, Jambon, Ponorogo, by integrating PhET Interactive Simulations. The program focused on two main topics: energy transfer and energy transformations. Students from grades 4, 5, and 6 were divided into groups and guided by facilitators to explore these concepts using PhET. The program began with problem identification through discussions with the school's Principal and teachers, followed by careful planning and execution over two sessions in August 2024. The first session introduced students to heat transfer, while the second focused on energy transformations. Post-session evaluations showed that students successfully understood and applied these concepts, identifying energy sources, converters, and users, and explaining the process of energy transformations. The success of the program suggests the effectiveness of interactive technology like PhET in improving students' comprehension of complex scientific concepts, highlighting a valuable approach for future educational initiatives.

Village Sign Languages

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The study of village sign languages is at the forefront of new approaches to developing a typology of languages. Indeed, recent research has shown that the study of village sign disconfirms some of our previously held assumptions about the linguistic structure of sign languages based on the study of the better-known sign languages of Europe and North America (such as that they all use classifiers — Adamorobe Sign Language does not). Further, village sign languages present distinct sociolinguistic contexts that are instructive to study with respect to understanding language contact issues. Finally, the endangered status of these languages raises philosophical questions about the nature of human language.
Sonification as a Tool for Data Analysis

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This article presents an evaluation of accessibility, using one of the International Standard Organization guidelines (ISO 9241-171:2008, Guidance on software accessibility) to estimate if the sonification software for astronomical data published before 2017 are designed under a User-Centred Design framework based on the accessibility. The evaluation was carried out by scientists, degree students and accessibility specialists. The results suggest that some of the current data analysis prototypes used by space scientists and prototypes used for accessibility do not follow user-centric design which may have contributed to partial fulfillment of the ISO accessibility requirements. and show that the text of the ISO standard can be interpreted in different ways according to the experience and approach of each developer. The raining on accessibility and high granularity user testing should be mandatory for computing science professionals and developers. The contact with the end-users must be part and lead the design of the development from the beginning to produce an accessible tool.
Evaluation of some Trichoderma isolates for biological control of potato wilt disease (Fusarium oxysporum) under laboratory and greenhouse conditions

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Biological efficacy of Trichoderma species may differ due to variations in ecosystems. This study was conducted to assess the biocontrol efficacy of some native Trichoderma isolates against Fusarium oxysporum, an important causal agent of potato wilt disease under laboratory and greenhouse conditions in Shahrood Agricultural Research Center, Shahrood, Iran during 2006-2007. Fourteen isolates were collected among which eight showed promising ability in inhibiting growth of the pathogen through dual culture and production of volatile and non-volatile metabolites but T. asperellum (T2) and T. atroviride (T3) were almost more efficient than other isolates in inhibiting the mycelial growth of the pathogen in comparison to control (P ≤ 0.01). Eight isolates were evaluated against the disease under green house condition. Potted plants treated with Trichoderma isolates + F. oxysporum showed lower disease incidence in comparison to Fusarium infested control (P ≤ 0.05). Best disease control was observed in potted plants treated with F. oxysporum + T. asperellum (T2) showing 2.5% disease incidence in contrast to Fusarium infested control, in which disease incidence was 73%.

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The immediate accumulation observation for the surrounding usually used in developing the architectural design. In vernacular architecture, the design passed from one generation to the other even without designer and academic method. Vice versa, the contemporary architecture nowadays is barely care about the relationship of the building and its surrounding nature. This research will try to look at this phenomenon and emphasizing the prominent role of climate on the design development of vernacular architecture and how it is impact thecontemporarly architecture in Indonesia. In addition, it will further discuss how the climate is having a close relation with the building physical performance in order to reach an energy efficiency. Architect should harmonize the building with its surrounding nature. They should consider more prominent elements in tropical-humid building, ie air temperature, wind, sun radiation and humidity itself. This paper consists of three main parts. First part consists of introduction about the climate in Indonesia. Indonesia known to be located in the tropical and humid region. Following that, the second part explains the basic characteristic of vernacular architecture in Indonesia from literatures and precedents. Lastly, the third section describes several case studies in which reflects the relation between vernacular architecture in its relationship with contemporary architecture. Through this paper, expectantly people can see that to solve the climate problem, architecture explorations are really needed as those affect the energy efficiency and construction cost in the building. Keywords: vernacular architecture, energy effiecieny, contemporary architecture, sustainable architecture.

Abstract. The oceanic bottom mixed layer (BML) has an important role in transporting mass, heat, and momentum between the ocean interior and the bottom boundary. However, the spatial-temporal variability of the BML in the South China Sea (SCS) is not well understood. Using historical hydrological data from 2004 to 2018 and observations from two hydrographic moorings in the SCS, it has been found that the BML in the SCS has significant inhomogeneity. In particular, while the BML is relatively thin and stable over the continental shelf and in deep-sea regions, it is thick and unstable over the northern continental slope. The typical thicknesses of the BML on the continental shelf, continental slope, and deep-sea regions are around 30–60 m, 80–120 m, and 10–50 m, respectively. Statistically, the mean, median, and one standard deviation values of BML thickness over the entire SCS are 73 m, 56 m, and 55 m, respectively. Further analysis reveals that energetic high-frequency dynamic processes, together with steep bottom topography (large slope and roughness), cause strong tidal dissipation and vertical mixing near the bottom over the continental slope, resulting in thicker BMLs there. In contrast, the dynamic processes in the deep ocean are less energetic and low-frequency and the topography is relatively smooth (smaller slope and roughness). Therefore, the tidal dissipation and bottom vertical mixing in the deep-sea regions are weaker, and the BML is relatively thin. These findings may enhance our understanding of the BML dynamics in the SCS and other marginal seas and provide insights that help to improve parameterizations of physical processes in ocean models.
Brain Response is Shaped by Language Experience: Evidence from an fMRI Study on Beginning Second Language Learners

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Functional MRI was used to explore the role of language experience in shaping the neural substrates of phonological processing. Twelve Chinese children who had very limited exposure to second language (L2), i. e. , English, were scanned while they were performing visually presented rhyme judgment tasks in their two languages. We found that the phonological processing of subjects' native language and their newly obtained L2 elicited overlapping activation in the left inferior frontal region. More important, thought the L2 tasks were more difficult and thus caused more intensive activation in bilateral parietal lobule, the Broca's area was less intensively activated in the L2 tasks. These results confirm and extend the view that the involvement of Broca's area in phonological processing is gradually increased as a function of language experience.

The multi-cycle dynamics of the cavitation bubble near the solid wall with an air-entrapping hole or a hemispherical air bubble: A numerical study

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Investigating the interaction between the near-wall cavitation bubble and the air bubble has great significance for understanding the mechanism of air entrainment to alleviate cavitation in actual hydraulic engineering. To quantify the effect of the air bubble on the multi-cycle dynamics of the near-wall cavitation bubble, a more comprehensive compressible three-phase model considering the phase-change process was developed based on OpenFOAM, and corresponding validation was performed by comparing the simulated bubble shape with the published experimental values. The key features of the multi-cyclical evolution of the cavitation bubble are nicely reproduced based on the current numerical model. For the cavitation bubble near the solid wall containing a hemispherical air bubble, the simulated results reveal that the air bubble can reflect the shock wave and thus prevent it from impacting directly on the solid wall, which will help to uncover the microscopic mechanism of aeration avoiding cavitation damage. The dynamical features of the cavitation bubble at different dimensionless distances (γ1) and dimensionless sizes (ε) are investigated and analyzed. For the near-wall cavitation bubble with an air-entrapping hole, the air hole plays a crucial role in the multi-cycle dynamics of the cavitation bubble, leading to the bubble that is always far away from both the air hole and the solid wall. Thus, the current results may provide a potential application for preventing the wall damage caused by the impact of the liquid jet.
