Opis:
The use of heavy metals in the manufacturing industry over the past few decades has eventually contributed to a rise in the flow of metallic compounds into wastewater and has raised significant ecological and health threats to living things. Adsorption is an excellent way to treat solid waste effluent, offering significant benefits such as affordability, profitability, ease of operation and efficiency. However, the price of commercial adsorbent namely activated carbon has soared due to its high demand. There is also a green improvement in this method by turning the commercial adsorbent into agricultural waste. In Malaysia, the oil palm waste is such suitable material that can be utilized for making activated carbon, since they are ample and easy to find. Additionally, part of them is agricultural waste that cannot be consumed (i.e. leaves and fronds). Hence, this study aimed to analyse the potential of activated carbon from agricultural waste, namely oil palm waste, in reducing the levels of heavy metals in industrial wastewater.

Opis:
Simulation of wave propagation in the three-dimensional (3D) modeling of the vocal tract has shown significant promise for enhancing the accuracy of speech production. Recent 3D waveguide models of the vocal tract have been designed for better accuracy but require a lot of computational tasks. A high computational cost in these models leads to novel work in reducing the computational cost while retaining accuracy and performance. In the current work, we divide the geometry of the vocal tract into four equal symmetric parts with the introduction of two axial perpendicular planes, and the simulation is performed on only one part. A novel strategy is defined to implement symmetric conditions in the mesh. The complete standard 3D digital waveguide model is assumed as a benchmark model. The proposed model is compared with the benchmark model in terms of formant frequencies and efficiency. For the demonstration, the vowels /ɔ/, /i/, /ɛ/, /ɑ/, and /u/ have been selected for the simulations. According to the results, the benchmark and current models are nearly identical in terms of frequency profiles and formant frequencies. Still the current model is three times more effective than the benchmark model.

Opis:
We focus on a specific sub-model of the proposed family that we call the new half logistic-Fréchet. This sub-model stems from a new generalisation of the half-logistic distribution which we call the new half-logistic-G. The novelty of proposing this new family is that it does not include any additional parameters and instead relies on the baseline parameter. Standard statistical formulas are used to show the forms of the density and failure rate functions, ordinary and incomplete moments with generating functions, and random variate generation. The maximum likelihood estimation procedure is used to estimate the set of parameters. We conduct a simulation analysis to ensure that our calculations are converging with lower mean square error and biases. We use three real-life data sets to equate our model to well-established existing models. The proposed model outperforms the well-established four parameters beta Fréchet and exponentiated generalized Fréchet for some real- -life results, with three parameters such as half-logistic Fréchet, exponentiated Fréchet, Zografos–Balakrishnan gamma Fréchet, Topp–Leonne Fréchet, and Marshall–Olkin Fréchet and two-parameter classical Fréchet distribution.

Opis:
Natural polymers, like chitosan, collagen, and alginate, offer promising solutions for wound healing. Derived from natural sources, they exhibit biocompatibility and bioactivity, promoting tissue regeneration. These polymers can form scaffolds or dressings that accelerate wound closure while reducing infection risks. Their inherent properties make them promising options in the quest for effective wound care materials. In this work, composites based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), chitosan (Chi), and curcumin (Cur) were prepared. PVA, a synthetic water-soluble polymer, finds extensive use in biomedical and wound-healing applications. It is approved by the U.S. FDA for cosmetic, medical, and wound healing products. Chi, a polysaccharide, is widely used in biomedicine and possesses antibacterial properties. Both PVA and chitosan are biocompatible and exhibit good filming characteristics. Curcumin (Cur) with antibacterial and antioxidant properties is being explored for regenerative medicine. PVA, chitosan, and curcumin were blended. The structure was studied by FTIR, microscopic observations were done with optical and scanning electron microscopes, and the mechanical properties were assessed. FTIR revealed component interactions, while microscopy showed a flat film surface. The polymeric blend (PVA/Chi/Cur) had a Young’s modulus of 1.49 GPa, tensile strength of 47.69 MPa, stress value of 8.39 N, and 35.34% elongation at break. These properties make the blend suitable for consideration in wound healing applications.

The flexural toughness of chopped steel wool fiber reinforced cementitious composite panels was investigated. Reinforced cementitious composite panels were produced by mixing of chopped steel wool fiber with a ratio range between 0.5% to 6.0% and 0.5% as a step increment of the total mixture weight, where the cement to sand ratio was 1:1.5 with water to cement ratio of 0.45. The generated reinforced cementitious panels were tested at 28 days in terms of load-carrying capacity, deflection capacities, post-yielding effects, and flexural toughness. The inclusion of chopped steel wool fiber until 4.5% resulted in gradually increasing load-carrying capacity and deflection capacities while, provides various ductility, which would simultaneously the varying of deflection capability in the post-yielding stage. Meanwhile, additional fiber beyond 4.5% resulted in decreased maximum load-carrying capacity and increase stiffness at the expense of ductility. Lastly, the inclusion of curves gradually.

Opis:
Many researchers have investigated alternative sources to overcome the problem of conventional building material polluting the environment by the development of green self-compacting concrete in the construction industry. The best alternative solution is to utilise non-conventional construction materials like agricultural wastes. Meanwhile, self-compacting concrete (SCC) is considered as high strength as well as high-performance concrete. The demerits, which include tensile and flexural strength, can be improved by incorporating coir fibres. The utilisation of coir fibres also modifies self-compacting concrete performance after cracking and improves the toughness. This study defines an experimental investigation of the mechanical properties of self-compacting concrete containing coir fibres (CF) with different percentages being 0%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5% at 7- and 28-days water curing. The mechanical properties include the slump flow and compressive and tensile strength were examined. The outcomes demonstrated that a required slump flow for self-compacting concrete was achieved using coir fibres up to 1%, beyond which it reduced the slump significantly. The length of fibre and proportion of fibres directly affected the workability. The compressive strength was 10% to 15% enhanced with the incorporation of coir fibres up to 0.5%; after that, the strength was slightly reduced, and tensile strength was 30% to 50% improved compared to conventional self-compacting concrete up to 1% of coir fibres incorporation in the SCC mix, after which it rapidly reduced.

Opis:
In the past ten years, sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) attach great importance due to consumers, for-profit and profitless organizations, laws and regulations to the social and corporate responsibilities of consumers, so it has been recognized by practitioners and scholars. Supplier selection, environmental effect like a lockdown, and social cooperation and other SSCM programs can play an important part in realizing the triple bottom line (TBL) of economic, environmental, social assistances. In supply chain management (SCM), the sustainable supplier selection (SSS) and firm performance plays an important role. Traditionally, when evaluating SSS performance, organizations will consider a new framework to obtain the overall criteria/sub-criteria of the sustainability index by encapsulating sustainability. In this paper 12 sub-criteria for 3 pillars of sustainability as economic, environment and social performance is collected. Although there are many articles on SSS and evaluation, so far, research on sustainability issues is very limited. This study endeavours to propose a fuzzy multi-criteria approach to discuss SSCM planning, and studies the issue of determining a current model for SSS in the supply chain during COVID-19 based on the TBL method. For express the linguistic value of the subjective preference of experts we use triangular fuzzy numbers. By using fuzzy numbers to find standard weights for qualitative performance evaluation, then fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) is proposed to find the ranking of SSS. However, COVID-19 has a negative role in SSS and in firm performance. The situation of lockdown due to COVID-19 has a negative effect on the performance of the organizations. An example is given of the proposed method.
Zrównoważone zarządzanie łańcuchem dostaw (SSCM) staje się coraz bardziej istotne w kontekście konsumentów, organizacji nastawionych na zysk i organizacji bez zysku oraz przepisy ustawowe i wykonawcze do społecznej i korporacyjnej odpowiedzialności konsumentów. Zostało docenione przez praktyków i naukowców. Wybór dostawcy, efekt środowiskowy, taki jak blokada, oraz współpraca społeczna i inne programy SSCM mogą odgrywać ważną rolę w realizacji Potrójnej linii przewodniej (TBL) pomocy ekonomicznej, środowiskowej i społecznej. W zarządzaniu łańcuchem dostaw (SCM) zrównoważony wybór dostawców (SSS) i wydajność firmy odgrywają ważną rolę. Tradycyjnie, podczas oceny wyników SSS, organizacje będą rozważać nowe ramy w celu uzyskania ogólnych kryteriów/podkryteriów indeksu rozwoju, poprzez enkapsulację zrównoważonego rozwoju. W niniejszym artykule zebrano 12 kryteriów cząstkowych dla 3 filarów zrównoważonego rozwoju, takich jak wyniki gospodarcze, środowiskowe i społeczne. Chociaż istnieje wiele artykułów na temat SSS i ewaluacji, jak dotąd badania dotyczące kwestii zrównoważonego rozwoju są bardzo ograniczone. Niniejsze badanie ma na celu zaproponowanie rozmytego, wielokryterialnego podejścia do omówienia planowania SSCM i bada kwestię określenia obecnego modelu SSS w łańcuchu dostaw podczas COVID-19 w oparciu o metodę TBL. Aby wyrazić wartość językową subiektywnej preferencji ekspertów, używamy trójkątnych liczb rozmytych. Stosując liczby rozmyte do znalezienia standardowych wag do jakościowej oceny wydajności, proponuje się następnie rozmyte TOPSIS (Technika uporządkowania preferencji według podobieństwa do idealnego rozwiązania) w celu znalezienia rankingu SSS. Stwierdzono, że pandemia COVID-19 wywiera negatywny wpływ na SSS i wydajność firmy. Sytuacja zablokowania z powodu pandemii COVID-19 także ma negatywny wpływ na wyniki organizacji. Pomoc stanowi nowa metoda, analizowana w niniejszym artykule.

Opis:
The current research investigated the effect of safety climate on job satisfaction and job performance with psychological capital as a moderator between safety climate and job satisfaction as well as job performance. This research fills the gap by collecting empirical evidence from the emerging organizations of Pakistan. Conservation of resource theory (COR) is relevant to the research area. Data were collected from 300 employees from different Organizations. The current study is empirical and quantitative-based study is used to conducted research. Data were collected by convenient non-probability sampling techniques to be used and collected from employees working in the reputed organization; Chemical, Cement, Petroleum, Oil and Gas industry of Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Confirmatory Factor analysis was done through AMOS and hypotheses were tested through SPSS regression analysis process of Hayes model. To test the moderation effects, the process of Hayes model 1 was also performed. Safety climate has a positive relationship with the two DVs which are job performance and job satisfaction. Moreover, Psychological Capital played a significant moderating role between safety climate and job satisfaction as well as job performance. When Psychological capital was high, the relationship between safety climate and job performance as well as the relationship between safety climate and job satisfaction were stronger. These results are important for future studies. This research recommended top management and responsible authorities to promote safety climate activates between their organization in order to enhance their employees satisfy and high performed. Moreover, this research strongly recommends psychological capital amongst organization looking for highly satisfied and effective employees. Further implications for practice were discussed in detail.

Opis:
This research paper mainly aims to identify and analyse irrational factors that impact consumers’ purchase intention, especially in the fashion industry. The data for this study were collected from 205 consumers of various nationalities via an online self-administered questionnaire. The acquired data were put through a thorough process to establish their relevance and to ensure that the data were ready for further analysis by applying the SPSS & AMOS software. Three irrational factors were extracted from the extant literature, namely, media, social impact, and emotions. These factors are reported to have a positive infl uence on the consumer’s purchase intention. First, a descriptive analysis was undertaken followed by an inferential analysis. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the fi tness of the proposed model and also to test the hypotheses. Two out of the total three hypotheses are supported. In this case, media infl uence and social infl uence emerged with a signifi cant positive impact on the consumer’s purchase intention. Even though emotions infl uence resulted in a positive impact, it was not statistically signifi cant and does not relate to the consumer’s purchase intention in the fashion industry. The fi ndings of this study have signifi cant contribution to the body of knowledge and practice. Marketing research, in general, and consumer research, in particular, will benefi t from the contribution of this research. Similarly, policy makers in the fashion industry may adopt the fi ndings of the present study to devise more eff ective marketing strategies. Indeed, this research highlights that the consumer’s purchase intention is not entirely in response to a particular phenomenon but a multitude of so-called “irrational” factors like media, society, and emotions.

Viral gastroenteritis and other water-borne diseases are the most neglected areas of research in Pakistan. To determine the quality of water, 4 enteric viruses were studied from different localities of Peshawar, Pakistan. The study validates the viral detection method for Rotavirus (RV), Human adenovirus (HAdV), Enterovirus (EV) and Hepatitis A virus (HAV), directly from water sources of rural areas of Peshawar, KPK, Pakistan. Overall, 95 five water samples were tested; among them, 9.47% were positive for RV, 38.94% for HAdV, 48.42% for EV and 12.63% for HAV. The presence of these viruses in water was directly correlated with meteorological data. High prevalence of EV and HAdV was detected frequently in the wet season from May – September, which can be the potential cause of spreading of gastroenteritis in the population. Environmental surveillance is an additional tool to evaluate the epidemiology of enteric viruses circulating in a given community.

Opis:
Ligninolytic enzymes are employed for the production of second-generation biofuel to minimize fuel crisis. Additionally, they play a crucial role in global carbon cycle and a variety of applications in food, agriculture, paper and textile industries. On a large scale production of ligninolytic enzymes, microorganisms can be cultured on lignocellulosic wastes. In the present study, proximate analysis including acid detergent lignin (ADL), acid detergent cellulose (ADC), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and acid insoluble ash (AIA) were performed for Platanus orientalis (chinar), Bauhinia variegata (orchid tree), Pinus roxburghii (chirpine), wheat straw and wheat husk. Platanus orientalis was selected as substrate because of higher lignin contents for the production of ligninolytic enzymes by Aspergillus flavus. Solid State Fermentation was used and Response Surface Methodology was employed for optimizing various parameters and enzymes production. Maximum production was achieved at temperature 32°C, fermentation period 120 hours, pH 4.5, inoculums size 3.5 mL, substrate mesh size 80 mm, substrate size 7 g. Maximum purification of laccase, manganese peroxidase (MnP) and lignin peroxidase (LiP) was achieved with 50%, 60% and 40% ammonium sulfate respectively and it was enhanced by gel filtration chromatography. Characterization of enzymes shows that Laccase has 35°C optimum temperature, 4.5 pH, 0.289 mM Km and 227.27 μM/ml Vmax. Manganese peroxidase has 30°C optimum temperature, 5.5 pH, 0.538 mM Km and 203.08 μM/ml Vmax. Lignin peroxidase has 30°C optimum temperature, 3 pH, 2 mM Km and 2000 uM/ml Vmax. Protein concentrations found in crude extracts and partially purified enzymes are respectively: laccase 1.78 and 0.71 mg/ml, MnP 1.59 and 0.68 mg/ml. LiP, 1.70 and 0.69 mg/ml.

Opis:
A vocal tract model based on a digital waveguide is presented in which the vocal tract has been decomposed into uniform cylindrical segments of variable lengths. We present a model for the real-time numerical solution of the digital waveguide equations in a uniform tube with the temporally varying cross section. In the current work, the uniform cylindrical segments of the vocal tract may have their different lengths, the time taken by the sound wave to propagate through a cylindrical segment in an axial direction may not be an integer multiple of each other. In such a case, the delay in an axial direction is necessarily a fractional delay. For the approximation of fractional-delay filters, Lagrange interpolation is used in the current model. Variable length of the individual segment of the vocal tract enables the model to produce realistic results. These results are validated with accurate benchmark model. The proposed model has been devised to elongate or shorten any arbitrary cylindrical segment by a suitable scaling factor. This model has a single algorithm and there is no need to make section of segments for elongation or shortening of the intermediate segments. The proposed model is about 23% more efficient than the previous model.

This study summarised the recent achievement in developing fiber reinforced geopolymer concrete. The factor of replacing Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) which is due to the emission of carbon dioxide that pollutes the environment globally is well discussed. The introduction towards metakaolin is presented. Besides, the current research trend involved in geopolymer also has been reviewed for the current 20 years to study the interest of researchers over the world by year. Factors that contribute to the frequency of geopolymer research are carried out which are cost, design, and the practicality of the application for geopolymer concrete. Besides, the importance of steel fibers addition to the geopolymer concrete is also well discussed. The fundamental towards metakaolin has been introduced including the source of raw material, which is calcined kaolin, calcined temperature, chemical composition, geopolymerisation process, and other properties. Alkali activators which are mixing solution between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) have been reviewed. The mechanical properties of fibers reinforced metakaolin-based geopolymer concrete which is compressive and flexural are thoroughly reviewed. The compressive and flexural strength of fiber-reinforced metakaolin geopolymer concrete shows some improvement to the addition of steel fibers. The reviews in this field demonstrate that reinforcement of metakaolin geopolymer concrete by steel fibers shows improvement in mechanical performance.

Biaryls are the potential source of synthetic drugs. The present study describes the synthesis of a series of functionalized biphenyl derivatives (3a-3g) using Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction. The experimental results revealed the facile synthesis of biphenyl derivatives (3a-3g) with notably high yield (80-88 %). Density functional theory (DFT) studies were performed by Gaussian 09 software in order to rationalize the selectivity of coupling at C-Br bond instead of C-Cl bond. In addition of synthesis, the biological activities (biofilm inhibition, hemolytic and anti-thrombolytic) of these novel compounds were investigated. These results exhibited good biofilm inhibition (5.86-65.8 %), hemolytic (1.32-30.1 %) and anti-thrombolytic activities (9.64-42.5 %), indicating the potential use of these compounds for pharmaceutical applications.

Opis:
In this paper, we introduce a new family of univariate continuous distributions called the Gamma Kumaraswamy-generated family of distributions. Most of its properties are studied in detail, including skewness, kurtosis, analytical comportments of the main functions, moments, stochastic ordering and order statistics. The next part of the paper focuses on a particular member of the family with four parameters, called the gamma Kumaraswamy exponential distribution. Among its advantages, the following should be mentioned: the corresponding probability density function can have symmetrical, left-skewed, right-skewed and reversed-J shapes, while the corresponding hazard rate function can have (nearly) constant, increasing, decreasing, upside-down bathtub, and bathtub shapes. Subsequently, the inference on the gamma Kumaraswamy exponential model is performed. The method of maximum likelihood is applied to estimate the model parameters. In order to demonstrate the importance of the new model, analyses on two practical data sets were carried out. The results proved more favourable for the studied model than for any of the other eight competitive models.
