Abstract:
A numerical model capable of simulating the dam-break flow is required to reduce the detrimental impact on the downstream area of the dam. This study aims to see how the characteristics and patterns of flow due to partial dam failure and the presence of an obstacle in the floodplain. In real life, the obstacle can be considered as a building. In this research, a model based on the FTCS method was developed with the addition of a Hansen numerical filter. This model is known as the FTCS-Hansen model. The Hansen filter in this study is used to enhance the numerical of the model and reduce oscillations due to shock waves. The FTCS-Hansen model simulates a 2D partial dam break with an obstacle. The simulation results are compared with other simulation results from previous studies. This comparison intends to see the performance of the FTCS-Hansen model. The results show good agreement between the FTCS-Hansen model and other numerical models. In addition, the complicated dam-break flow characteristics due to the presence of an obstacle (reflection and diffraction) can also be well captured by the FTCS-Hansen model.

Abstract:
Bagong Dam is one of the dams in Trenggalek Regency where the construction of this dam is an effort to deal with floods and drought in Trenggalek Regency. The dam is located in Pengkok hamlet, Sumurup village and Sengon village, Bendungan sub-district, Trenggalek district, East Java province. The water catchment area (DTA) on the Bagong river has a steep slope which can result in reduced productivity of water absorption which in turn can cause quite bad sedimentation. The amount of sedimentation can be estimated by calculating the rate or sediment transport that occurs at the location to be reviewed. Based on the results of the analysis of calculating the sedimentation rate using three methods, namely the Yang method, the Ackers-White method and the Engelund Hansen method respectively, the calculation of the sedimentation rate is 4.185,84 m³/year for the Yang method, 16.302,36 m³/year for the Ackers-White method , and 24.281,4 m³/year for the Engelund Hansen method. From the results of a comparison with project planning data, the Yang method has the smallest difference with project planning data, namely 1.646,93 m³/year, while the Ackers-White method has a difference of 10.469,59 m³/year and the Engelund Hansen method has a difference of 18.448,63 m³/year. From the three methods, namely the Yang, Ackers-White and Engelund Hansen methods, the service life predictions of the reservoirs were obtained for 101 years, 26 years, and also 17 years respectively

Abstract:
The Hansen-Patrick method is a third-order iterative method used to solve nonlinear equation. The method requires three evaluation of functions and has an efficiency index 31/3 » 1,4224. This study discusses a modification of the Hansen-Patrick method using the second order Taylor series. The second derivative is reduced using hyperbolic function with one parameter h. The aim of modification is to improve the convergence order of the Hansen-Patrick’s method. Based on the convergence analysis, the method has a fourth-order of convergence and envolve three evaluation of functions. So, its efficiency index is 41/3 » 1,5874. Numerical simulation is given to illustrate performance of the iterative method using six real functions. The performance of the iterative method include : a computational order of convergence, the number of iteration, evaluation of function, absolute error, and value of function, will be compared with Newton’s method, Halley’s method, Newton-Steffensen’s method, and Hansen-Patrick method. The numerical simulation shows that the performance of the method better than others

Abstract:
A simple relationship between the Hamaker constant and the Hansen solubility parameters for non-polar liquids is derived by combining a Hamaker constant/surface tension relationship derived by Israelachvili and a Hansen solubility parameters/surface tension relationship derived by Abbott. With this relationship, one can easily estimate the Hamaker constant of non-polar liquids on the basis of the database of the Hansen solubility parameters. This is an entirely new method for calculating the Hamaker constant without recourse to data on the frequency-dependent dielectric permittivity of those substances (which are required for the rigorous Lifshitz theory) and laborious numerical calculations.

<strong>Abstract:</strong> The bearing capacity of soil is a crucial factor in foundation design, and it can be determined using various methods such as IS 6403:1981, Meyerhof (1957), Hansen (1970), and Terzaghi (1943), among others. This paper aims to study the most suitable method for assessing the bearing capacity of soil in hilly regions like Aizawl, Mizoram. In this regard, the Durtlang locality which is the most developing area under the Aizawl Municipal Corporation (AMC) has been selected for the study area. The study involved collecting undisturbed soil samples from ten different locations of the study area which were then tested in the laboratory to determine their engineering properties. Based on the obtained soil properties, the safe bearing capacity (SBC) was calculated using different methods, including IS 6403:1981, Meyerhof (1957), Hansen (1970), and Terzaghi (1943). A comparative analysis was conducted to evaluate the SBC values derived from these methods. Moreover, a parametric analysis was also conducted to study the impact of cohesion 'c' and the angle of internal friction '&Phi;&rsquo; of soil on the bearing capacity of soil. The study concluded that as the cohesion of the soil increased, the angle of internal friction tended to decrease. On the other hand, the safe bearing capacity (SBC) was found to increase with a higher angle of internal friction. The results of the comparative analysisrevealed that, forthe selected soil samples, the bearing capacities calculated using IS 6403:1981, Meyerhof (1957), and Terzaghi (1943) were higher than those derived from Hansen's (1970) equation. Notably, both Meyerhof (1957) and Hansen (1970) incorporate the slope angle in their bearing capacity calculations, whereas IS 6403:1981 and Terzaghi (1943) provide general formulas that do not account for slope effects. These findings highlight that the method chosen for calculating bearing capacity has a significant impact on the results.

Abstract:
Gas bearing systems have extremely small damping properties. Feedback control is thus employed to increase the damping of gas bearings. Such a feedback loop correlates the input with the measurement noise which in turn makes the assumptions for direct identification invalid. The originality of this article lies in the investigation of the impact of using different identification methods to identify a rotor-bearing systems’ dynamic model when a feedback loop is active. Two different identification methods are employed. The first method is open loop Prediction Error Method, while the other method is the modified Hansen scheme. Identification based on the modified Hansen scheme is conducted by identifying the Youla deviation system using subspace identification. Identification of the Youla deviation system is based on the Youla–Jabr–Bongiorno–Kucera parametrisation of plant and controller. By using the modified Hansen scheme, identification based on standard subspace identification methods can be used to identify the Youla deviation system of the gas bearing. This procedure ensures the input to the Youla deviation system, and the noise is uncorrelated even though the system is subject to feedback control. The effect of identifying the Youla deviation system compared to direct subspace identification of the gas bearing is further investigated through a simulation example. Experiments are conducted on the piezoelectrically controlled radial gas bearing. A dynamic model is identified using the modified Hansen scheme as well as using Prediction Error Method identification. The resulting models are compared for different imperfect nominal models, to examine under which conditions each method should be used.

Abstract:
Accurately determining the Hansen solubility parameters (HSPs) of fuel cell ionomers is crucial for optimizing the dispersion and dispersive state of the ionomer in fuel cell catalyst inks. This directly impacts the structure and coating process of the catalyst layer in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The Hansen solubility parameters (HSPs) of the Nafion ionomer were calculated by the Hansen solubility parameter software (HSPiP), inverse gas chromatography (IGC), and group contribution methods. The applicability and accuracy of the different algorithms are discussed. It was found that the solubility parameters (SPs) measured by the HSPiP method were higher, while the SPs measured by the IGC and group contribution methods were lower. However, for the ionomer with both a hydrophobic backbone and hydrophilic side chain, the HSPiP method offered a more reasonable HSP determination method. The dual HSPs of Nafion calculated by the HSPiP method were found to be δd = 16.4 MPa1/2 (dispersion force), δp = 10.5 MPa1/2 (polar interaction), and δh = 8.9 MPa1/2 (hydrogen bonding) for the hydrophobic backbone and δd = 15.2 MPa1/2, δp = 11.7 MPa1/2, and δh = 15.9 MPa1/2 for the hydrophilic side chain. These results provide a thermodynamic basis for solvent design in fuel cell catalyst-layer fabrication.

Abstract:
In the Kediri Regency area, it is planned to build a 3-story shophouse as one of the supporting facilities and the community’s economic needs. This area has sandy soil conditions and a high-water table. The purpose of this study was to calculate the carrying capacity of the soil in constructing a 3-story shophouse using the Terzaghi, Mayerhof, and Hansen methods. The condition of the soil with a relatively high groundwater table made the implementation of the footplate foundation less effective, so a modification of the foundation was made, which added three mini-piles measuring 0.4x0.4x1.5m, with a design load supported by the foundation of 100 t/m². Calculations with the Mayerhof and Hansen methods have nearly identical results but have not fulfilled the planned load. At a foundation depth of up to 3 m with an SF value of 3, for the Terzaghi method: 107.75 t/m2, the Mayerhof method: 92.51 t/m2, and the Hansen method: 94.68 t/m2. The results can be used as an alternative in constructing a 3-story shophouse with sandy soil conditions and high groundwater levels. This research can also be a reference for other regions facing similar problems.

Abstract:
ABSTRAK: Secara geografis, Teluk Tahuna diapit oleh 2 muara sungai yaitu Muara Sungai Tidore, yang dekat dengan Pelabuhan Nusantara Tahuna, dan Muara Sungai Towo’e. Hal ini memungkinkan terjadinya sedimentasi.Sehingga, perlu diketahui besarnya angkutan sedimen yang terjadi di perairan Teluk Tahuna.Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu membandingkan metode Engelund-Hansen dengan hasil pengukuran di lapangan. Pengambilan sedimen menggunakan sediment trap dan diukur selama 2 minggu sekali sebanyak 5 kali. Sedimen dibawa ke Laboratorium Mekanika Tanah untuk memperoleh ukuran diameter sedimen. Lokasi penelitian dibagi menjadi 3 stasiun, Stasiun 1 dekat muara sungai Tidore, Stasiun 2 pada bagian tengah perairan, dan Stasiun 3 dekat muara sungai Towoé. Hasil prediksi transport sedimen di Perairan Teluk Tahuna dengan metode Engelund-Hansen yaitu pada Stasiun 1 = 0,00000291(m3/m*s), Stasiun 2 = 0,00000697(m3/m*s), dan Stasiun 3 = 0,00000789(m3/m*s). Perhitungan transport sedimen yang paling tinggi adalah di Stasiun 3. Pengukuran laju sedimentasi yaitu pada Stasiun 1 sebesar 0,0000029 m3/hari, Stasiun 2 sebesar 0,0000053 m3/hari dan pada Stasiun 3 sebesar 0,0000072 m3/ hari. Rata – rata hasil pengukuran yang paling tinggi juga ada di Stasiun 3,yaitu dekat Muara Sungai Towoé. Hasil prediksi Metode Engelund-Hansen hampir sama dengan hasil pengukuran laju sedimen di lapangan. Metode Engelund-Hansen cocok digunakan untuk memprediksi transport sedimen di Perairan Teluk Tahuna. ABSTRACT: Geographically, Tahuna Bay has 2 river mouths, the Tidore river mouth, which is close to the Tahuna Harbor, and Towo'e river mouth. This allows sedimentation. So, it is necessary to know the calculation of sediment transport. The research method is comparing the Engelund-Hansen method with the results of measurements. Sediment rate measured by sediment trap and once in 2 weeks for 5 times. Sediments were taken to the Soil Mechanics Laboratory. The location was divided into 3 stations. The results of prediction of sediment transport in Tahuna Bay with the Engelund-Hansen method are Station 1 = 0,00000291 (m3/m*s), Station 2 = 0,00000697 (m3/m *s), and Station 3 = 0,00000789 (m3/m*s). The highest calculation of sediment transport is at Station 3. The average measurement of sedimentation rate at Station 1 of 0,0000029 m3/day, Station 2 of 0,0000053 m3/day and at Station 3 is 0,0000072 m3/day. The highest average measurement results are also at Station 3, which is near the Towoé River Estuary. The predicted results of the Engelund-Hansen Method are almost the same as those of the sediment rate measurements in the field. Engelund-Hansen Method can be used to predict the sediment transport in Tahuna bay.

The series were combined in subsets of two, three and four variables. After conducting the Johansen cointegration test, we found that nine different groups that are cointegrated.

The time horizon is three to four years, which gives us evidence of forecast accuracy gains superior to the random walk model for the exchange rate in the long term.

Abstract:
Organic electronics based on π-conjugated semi-conductor raises new technology, such as organic film transistors, e-paper, and organic photovoltaic cells that can be implemented cost-effectively on large-area applications. Currently, the device performance is limited by low charge carrier mobility. Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and organic field effect transistors (OFET) is used as a model to investigate morphology of the organic film and corresponding electronic properties. In this thesis, processing parameters such as boiling points and solubility are controlled to impact the micro- and macro-morphology of the film to enhance the charge transport of the device. Alternative approach to improve ordering of polymer chains and increase in charge transport without post-treatment of P3HT solution is studied. The addition of high boiling good solvent to the relatively low boiling main solvent forms ordered packing of π-conjugated polymers during the deposition process. We show that addition of 1% of dichlorobenzene (DCB) to the chloroform based P3HT solution was sufficient to improve wetting and molecular structures of the film to increase carrier mobility. Systematic study of solvent-assisted re-annealing technique, which has potential application in OFET encapsulation and fabrication of top-contact OFET, is conducted to improve mobility of OFET, and, to suggest a cost-effective processing condition suitable for industrial application. Three process parameters: boiling point, polarity, and solubility are investigated to further understand the trend of film response to the solvent-assisted technique. We report the high boiling non-polar solvents with relatively high RED values promote highest improvement in molecular packing and formulate crystalline structure of the thin film, which increases the device performance.

Full text
Abstract:
In this work, waveguides with simultaneous negative dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability, otherwise known as left-handed waveguides, are investigated. An approach of formulating and solving an eigenvalue problem with finite element method resulting in the dispersion relation of the waveguides is adopted in the analysis. Detailed methodology of one-dimensional scalar and two-dimensional vector finite element formulation for the analysis of grounded slab and arbitrary shaped waveguides is presented. Based on the analysis, for waveguides with conventional media, excellent agreement of results is observed between the finite element approach and the traditional approach. The method is then applied to analyze left-handed waveguides and anomalous dispersion of modes is found. The discontinuity structure of a left-handed waveguide sandwiched between two conventional dielectric slab waveguides is analyzed using mode matching technique and the results are discussed based on the inherent nature of the materials. The scattering characteristics of a parallel plate waveguide partially filled with left-handed and conventional media are also analyzed using finite element method with eigenfunction expansion technique.<br>M.S.E.E.<br>Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<br>Engineering and Computer Science<br>Electrical Engineering

Abstract:
This volume contains the first Italian critical edition with introduction, translation and commentary of Euripides’ Iphigenia in Aulis. The tragedy, exhibited posthumously in 405 BCE, stages the first mythical segment of the Trojan War, namely the sacrifice of Iphigenia, daughter of king Agamemnon, head of the Greek army, in order to propitiate the winds that should lead the navy to Troy. A tragedy of intrigue and unveiling, in which all the characters try to oppose the sacrifice, judged to be an impiety despite its sacred essence. It is therefore a tragedy without gods, in which characters of modest moral stature move, unstable, ready to sudden changes of mind, and among whom the protagonist stands out: the girl who, having overcome the dismay for the destiny awaiting her, voluntarily moves towards death on the altar, for a flimsy patriotic ideal and with the illusion of achieving immortal glory. Since the end of the eighteenth century, the text of this tragedy, handed over to us by the manuscript tradition, has been exposed more than others to a rigorous philological criticism that has broken its unity, through considerable expunctions of entire sections and sequences of verses. The volume traces the phases of this critical work, showing its methods – and sometimes its excesses – and choosing a balance line in the constitution of the text. The overall exegesis of the tragedy, which I propose in this study, consists in the belief that, despite the exodus being spurious, the finale, in view of which the entire dramaturgy was composed, still had to contemplate Iphigenia’s salvation. In fact, if the Panhellenic ideal of defence against the barbarians is now meaningless, and if a war of destruction, to begin with, needs the death of an innocent person, then this death must be transcended and the horror of human sacrifice must dissolve. It therefore seems that, once political current events become opaque, the poet’s research tends to create situations of great patheticism in an aesthetic setting of refined beauty.

Abstract:
AbstractThe discovery of a reversible transition in the helical sense of a double-helical DNA was initiated by the first synthesis in 1967 of the alternating sequence poly[d(G-C)]. In 1968, exposure to high salt concentration led to a cooperative isomerization of the double helix manifested by an inversion in the CD spectrum in the 240–310 nm range and in an altered absorption spectrum. The tentative interpretation, reported in 1970 and then in detailed form in a 1972 publication by Pohl and Jovin, was that the conventional right-handed B-DNA structure (R) of poly[d(G-C)] transforms at high salt concentration into a novel, alternative left-handed (L) conformation. The historical course of this development and its aftermath, culminating in the first crystal structure of left-handed Z-DNA in 1979, is described in detail. The research conducted by Pohl and Jovin after 1979 is summarized, ending with an assessment of “unfinished business”: condensed Z*-DNA; topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A) as an allosteric ZBP (Z-DNA-binding protein); B–Z transitions of phosphorothioate-modified DNAs; and parallel-stranded poly[d(G-A)], a double helix with high stability under physiological conditions and potentially also left-handed.

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Suspension Bridges are one of the types of bridges that are widely used for crossing long spans. The hanger tension forces play a pivotal role in determining the structural geometry and fatigue life of various elements, making it a critical factor for bridge structural integrity. Vibration-based measurement has been employed as an alternative method to determine hanger tension force in bridges lacking health monitoring systems. This study applies vibration measurements to hangers of varying lengths and cross-sections on three distinct bridges: Osman Gazi Bridge, Braila Bridge and Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge. The hanger tension forces were calculated using four theories: Taut String Theory, Flexural Loaded Beam, Effective Vibration Length, and Unified Practical Formula. Finally, the obtained results were compared to the exact hanger tension forces.&lt;/p&gt;

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Risk assessments of long-span bridges with cable elements shows that there is real danger of cable fracture. Such localized failures can lead to significant or complete structural collapse, as was the case with the 2019 bridge collapse in Taiwan. Therefore, this study focuses on tied-arch bridges and the main negative factors that can lead to hanger failure are considered. Basic methods of bridge calculation in case of sudden hanger failure are shown. It is hypothesized that existing quasi-static methods may lead to some errors in estimating the bridge strength. In this study, a scaled physical model is made and the dynamic response of the physical model in case of hanger failure is obtained using strain-gauge measurements. The study shows that the problem of progressive failure of tied- arch bridges is relevant and requires further research in the field of quasi-static analysis.&lt;/p&gt;

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;This paper proposes a methodology for future deterioration estimation based on the inspection results, through a statistical analysis of the cable band bolt axial forces data from a suspension bridge over a period of 16 years. The cable band bolts on a suspension bridge are crucial for generating the necessary frictional force to hold the cable bands, which connect the hanger cables to the main cable, in the correct position. The analysis results show that the distribution of the axial force of the cable band bolts can be approximated by a normal distribution, and by expressing its parameters as a logarithmic function of elapsed days, the long-term deterioration behavior of the axial force can be modelled. Based on the proposed model, Monte Carlo simulations were conducted to examine the inspection plan necessary and sufficient to predict future axial force deterioration.&lt;/p&gt;

Abstract:
&lt;title&gt;ABSTRACT&lt;/title&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ground vehicle soft soil mobility has been studied for decades. Standard measurements, such as cone penetrometer, determine soil strength which helps analyze vehicle mobility. These methods are only available where data can be collected. As off-road vehicles transition to autonomous and semi-autonomous, real time in-situ analysis of soil strength is becoming a necessity. Databases such as GeoWATCH provide coarse (30-90m geospatial resolution) mobility parameter estimates. Hydrologic events can cause rapid changes in mobility which may not be effectively captured by these databases. In order to make real time predictions for autonomous vehicles, it is necessary to develop a method to determine mobility parameters without operator intervention. A system using rut depth measurements (collected via optical and ultrasonic sensors) and vehicle parameters was developed from established methods to estimate soil strength. The results were compared to corresponding physical measurements and raw GeoWATCH data.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;bold&gt;Citation:&lt;/bold&gt; J.N. Fischell, B.S. Hansen, J.R. Jackson, and J.B.

Abstract:
Cardiovascular diseases including atherosclerosis, thrombosis, aneurysm and arrhythmia remain the major cause of mortality in developed countries, accounting for 34% of deaths each year [1]. Commonly used minimally invasive vascular intervention with using catheters leads to higher success rate than open surgery [2]. Integrating robotic technologies into active control of catheters in teleoperation manner has promised to reduce radiation exposure to surgeons and improve accuracy during electro-physiological (EP) procedures [1]. Common used commercial robotic EP catheter platforms such as Sensei (Hansen Medical Inc., USA) and Niobe (Stereotaxis Inc., USA) are usually composed of a catheter driver (slave side) which can be remotely controlled by a console operator (master side). However, the Sensei catheters are more rigid and bigger than standard catheters because of their two-layer-sheath structure; and Magnetic Niobe systems are huge and expensive. In this paper, we propose a mechanism of remote-driving catheterization platforms in which a commercial tip-steerable ablation catheter (St. Jude Medical Inc., USA) (Fig. 1) is manipulated by a catheter driver in three degree of freedoms (DOF) (insertion/withdrawal, rotation and tip deflection). In addition, we also present the design of the control software based on Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) method which is expected to give the other researchers a guide line during robotic catheter design.

Abstract:
In recent years, we can notice a significant increase in psychosomatic disorders among borderline mental pathology, which are reasonably considered “the pathology of modern civilization”. The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between psychosomatic disorders and the affective disorders of the personality. The study used the following methods: a diagnostic conversation and analysis of medical documents with the results of clinical examination, a scale for psychological express diagnostics of semi-structured depressive disorders (based on MMPI), a self-assessment scale by Ch.D. Spielberger - Yu.L. Hanin, Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS). Statistical methods of processing the empirical research results in the SPSS 22.0 program: descriptive statistics, correlation analysis (p-Spearman’s rank correlation). As a result of the study we can assert that psychosomatic disorders in respondents in the form of functional pathology of various organs and systems are connected with affective disorders in the form of moderate or severe depression of a neurotic level of various origins, alexithymia and high personal anxiety.

Full text
Abstract:
Die hier vorgestellte Studie wurde durch eine konstruktivistisch informierte Betrachtung kontrastiert, um dadurch sowohl das methodische Vorgehen der quantitativen Empirie als auch deren Ergebnisse zu reflektieren. Abschließend sollen diese beiden Aspekte noch einmal aufgegriffen werden. Bezüglich der empirischen Methodik macht sie offensichtlich, dass die quantitative Studie eine Reifikation eingeschränkter Raumbilder darstellt. Sie reproduziert eine Denkweise, die komplexe soziale Prozesse anhand vereinfachter Faktoren nachvollziehbar zu machen versucht. Bei der Einbeziehung der Raumstrukturtypisierung des BBR in die Auswertung zeigt sich eine begrenzte Aussagereichweite von räumlichen Strukturdaten bezüglich (sub-)lokaler und regionaler Analysen. Die komplexen sozialräumlichen Bedingungen schulischer Präventionsarbeit, so das Ergebnis, entziehen sich weitgehend einer Analyse mithilfe von Geodaten, die entweder aus mehreren Einzelkomponenten aggregiert sind (im Falle der Raumstrukturtypen20, Bevölkerungsdichtewerte und Zentrenerreichbarkeit) oder relativ große räumliche Einheiten umfassen (z. B. siedlungsstrukturelle Gebietstypen21). Eine differenzierte Sicht auf spezifisch urbane oder rurale Settings schulischer Präventionsarbeit können die (bisher) zur Verfügung stehenden räumlichen Daten nicht leisten. Darüber hinaus wäre es selbst bei Verfügbarkeit räumlicher Daten in größerer Detailschärfe unmöglich, eine kontingente soziale Wirklichkeit vor Ort mit Hilfe sozialstatistischer Raumdaten adäquat abzubilden. Als zum Teil sehr aussagekräftig im Sinne des quantitativen Forschungsparadigmas ergaben sich hingegen die Einschätzungen der Befragten bezüglich ihres räumlichen Umfeldes. Aus Sicht eines konstruktivistisch informierten Forschungsverständnisses geben aber auch diese Ergebnisse nur eine ganz spezifische Form einer durch den quantitativen Forschungsprozess geprägten Wahrheit wieder. Trotz dieser erkenntnistheoretischen Einschränkungen können die Ergebnisse der Umfrage zur Präventionsarbeit an Schulen Anlass für weiterführende Diskussionen sein und als Basis für eine kritische Reflektion dienen. Im Folgenden werden daher die zentralen Punkte der Diskussion der empirischen Ergebnisse noch einmal aufgenommen und zusammengeführt. Pädagogen an Schulen in Deutschland sehen sich in sehr unterschiedlichem Maße mit Herausforderungen konfrontiert. Die Verschiedenheit der Bedingungen des schulischen Alltags ist vor allem geprägt durch die hohe Selektivität und die darin zugrundeliegende Ausdifferenzierung des deutschen Schulsystems. Wie bei anderen schulischen Belangen auch liegen die Differenzen bezüglich der Herausforderungen, die sich den Schulen stellen, und der Ausgestaltung von Präventionsarbeit zumeist zwischen den Schulformen. Die Aussagen der Pädagog/-innen deuten dabei auf den Einfluss sehr unterschiedlicher sozialer Wirklichkeiten auf den Schulalltag hin. Aus Sicht der Schulleiter/-innen ballen sich Herausforderungen, insbesondere was die Thematisierung abweichenden Verhaltens von Schüler/-innen angeht, vor allem an Förder- und Hauptschulen. In städtischen Quartieren, die aus Sicht der Befragten durch soziale Problemlagen gekennzeichnet sind, konzentrieren sich die Probleme in Schulen zusätzlich. Präventionsarbeit an Schulen versteht sich häufig als Antwort auf problematische soziale Verhältnisse. Da sich insgesamt ein sehr positives Bild bezüglich der von Schüler/-innen erlernten sozialen Fähigkeiten ergibt und andere Studien auf einen Rückgang beispielsweise der Jugendgewalt hindeuten, muss davon ausgegangen werden, dass es andere Gründe für die Konjunktur von schulischer Präventionsarbeit gibt als zunehmend aggressives Verhalten unter Kindern und Jugendlichen. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung belegen auch, dass Präventionsarbeit unabhängig von der Problemwahrnehmung an Schulen zur – oder nicht zur – Anwendung kommt. So spielt die Problemwahrnehmung beispielsweise keine Rolle für die Schwerpunktsetzung bei ihrer Finanzierung. Der verstärkte Einsatz von Geldern in Städten und vor allem dort, wo das Umfeld der Schulen für „multikulturell“ oder „sozial schwach“ gehalten wird, macht einen kulturalistischen bzw. sozialökologischen Einschlag von Präventionsarbeit an Schulen offensichtlich. Eine eingeschränkte Problemorientierung wird ebenfalls durch die Ergebnisse bezüglich der Prävention politisch motivierter (Hass-)Kriminalität deutlich. Fremdenfeindlichkeit im Schulumfeld wird zwar wahrgenommen, in vielen Fällen jedoch folgen darauf keine Präventionsaktivitäten. Auf der einen Seite reagiert schulische Präventionsarbeit gar nicht auf offensichtliche Missstände, auf der anderen Seite wird Prävention eingesetzt, obwohl kaum Probleme thematisiert werden (vgl. z. B. Gewaltprävention an Gymnasien). Im Wesen des Präventionsgedankens liegt begründet, dass sich Präventionsarbeit nicht unbedingt an den Herausforderungen des schulischen Alltags orientiert. Selbst wenn keine konkreten Probleme vorliegen, ist im Sinne von Primärprävention vorbeugendes Handeln angezeigt. So kommt es auch dazu, dass Präventionsarbeit häufig die Durchführung allgemeiner Lebenskompetenzprogramme bedeutet. Die Vielzahl sehr allgemein auf die Aneignung von Sozialkompetenzen ausgerichteter Präventionscurricula macht deutlich, wie der Präventionsgedanke/- diskurs den Schulalltag auch in Bereichen durchdringt, die vormals von anderen Diskursen beeinflusst waren. Unter dem Begriff „Prävention“ wird heute explizit vermittelt, was in früheren Jahrzehnten als „Erziehung“ en passant von den Lehrer/-innen geleistet wurde. Mit dem Erstarken des Präventionsparadigmas hat sich der Umgang der Lehrer/-innen mit ihren Schüler/-innen verändert. Das Fördern sozialer Fähigkeiten findet stärker institutionalisiert statt und erhält, das ist ein entscheidender Machteffekt (im Sinne Foucaults (1978)) des Präventionsbegriffs, mit der neuen Bezeichnung auch eine neue Konnotation. Sie ist verknüpft mit Begriffen wie „Risiko“, „Gefährdung“ oder „Sicherheit“. Schon die Vermittlung grundlegender sozialer Kompetenzen wird, durch den Präventionsgedanken geprägt, zunehmend von dem defizitorientierten Ziel geleitet, abweichendes Verhalten zukünftig zu verhindern oder zu minimieren. Gerade an Grundschulen, die nach den Ergebnissen der Umfrage die wichtigsten Sozialisationsinstanzen unter den Schulen sind, ist der Aspekt der frühen Förderung von Sozialkompetenzen bei Kindern Ausgangspunkt für die zunehmende Durchdringung mit dem Präventionsgedanken. Der Präventionsdiskurs, so zeigen die Ergebnisse der Umfrage, besitzt die Macht, Eingriffe in das schulische Miteinander von Lehrer/-innen und Schüler/-innen zu legitimieren, die ohne seine Popularität kaum denkbar wären. Geht man davon aus, dass unter der Bedingung „individualisierter Lebenslagen“ (Beck 2003: 144) und einer damit Einhergehenden Pluralisierung von Lebensweisen Grenzerfahrungen ein wesentliches Element von Sozialisation und Identitätsbildung sind, kommt abweichendem Verhalten eine große Bedeutung im Prozess des Aufwachsens zu. Schädlich für die Gesellschaft, im Sinne einer Verstetigung in Form kriminellen Verhaltens, ist es in den seltensten Fällen. Aus dieser Sicht erfordert nicht jedes abweichende Verhalten ein präventives Entgegenwirken und es müsste ein besonderes Augenmerk darauf liegen, dass der Präventionsgedanke nicht unreflektiert als Legitimationsfolie für ordnungspolitische Eingriffe instrumentalisiert wird. Ob der verdachtsgeleitete Umgang mit Kindern wünschenswert ist, bleibt fraglich. Bezweifelt werden kann, dass die Notwendigerweise mit Prävention einhergehende Defizitorientierung lustvolles Lernen befördert.

Abstract:
Background Australia is a multi-cultural society with increasing rates of people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds. On average, CALD groups have higher rates of tobacco use, lower participation in cancer screening programs, and poorer health outcomes than the general Australian population. Lower cancer screening and smoking cessation rates are due to differing cultural norms, health-related attitudes, and beliefs, and language barriers. Interventions can help address these potential barriers and increase tobacco cessation and cancer screening rates among CALD groups. Cancer Council NSW (CCNSW) aims to reduce the impact of cancer and improve cancer outcomes for priority populations including CALD communities. In line with this objective, CCNSW commissioned this rapid review of interventions implemented in Australia and comparable countries. Review questions This review aimed to address the following specific questions: Question 1 (Q1): What smoking cessation interventions have been proven effective in reducing or preventing smoking among culturally and linguistically diverse communities? Question 2 (Q2): What screening interventions have proven effective in increasing participation in population cancer screening programs among culturally and linguistically diverse populations? This review focused on Chinese-, Vietnamese- and Arabic-speaking people as they are the largest CALD groups in Australia and have high rates of tobacco use and poor screening adherence in NSW. Summary of methods An extensive search of peer-reviewed and grey literature published between January 2013-March 2022 identified 19 eligible studies for inclusion in the Q1 review and 49 studies for the Q2 review. The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) Levels of Evidence and Joanna Briggs Institute’s (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tools were used to assess the robustness and quality of the included studies, respectively. Key findings Findings are reported by components of an intervention overall and for each CALD group. By understanding the effectiveness of individual components, results will demonstrate key building blocks of an effective intervention. Question 1: What smoking cessation interventions have been proven effective in reducing or preventing smoking among culturally and linguistically diverse communities? Thirteen of the 19 studies were Level IV (L4) evidence, four were Level III (L3), one was Level II (L2), none were L1 (highest level of evidence) and one study’s evidence level was unable to be determined. The quality of included studies varied. Fifteen tobacco cessation intervention components were included, with most interventions involving at least three components (range 2-6). Written information (14 studies), and education sessions (10 studies) were the most common components included in an intervention. Eight of the 15 intervention components explored had promising evidence for use with Chinese-speaking participants (written information, education sessions, visual information, counselling, involving a family member or friend, nicotine replacement therapy, branded merchandise, and mobile messaging). Another two components (media campaign and telephone follow-up) had evidence aggregated across CALD groups (i.e., results for Chinese-speaking participants were combined with other CALD group(s)). No intervention component was deemed of sufficient evidence for use with Vietnamese-speaking participants and four intervention components had aggregated evidence (written information, education sessions, counselling, nicotine replacement therapy). Counselling was the only intervention component to have promising evidence for use with Arabic-speaking participants and one had mixed evidence (written information). Question 2: What screening interventions have proven effective in increasing participation in population cancer screening programs among culturally and linguistically diverse populations? Two of the 49 studies were Level I (L1) evidence, 13 L2, seven L3, 25 L4 and two studies’ level of evidence was unable to be determined. Eighteen intervention components were assessed with most interventions involving 3-4 components (range 1-6). Education sessions (32 studies), written information (23 studies) and patient navigation (10 studies) were the most common components. Seven of the 18 cancer screening intervention components had promising evidence to support their use with Vietnamese-speaking participants (education sessions, written information, patient navigation, visual information, peer/community health worker, counselling, and peer experience). The component, opportunity to be screened (e.g. mailed or handed a bowel screening test), had aggregated evidence regarding its use with Vietnamese-speaking participants. Seven intervention components (education session, written information, visual information, peer/community health worker, opportunity to be screened, counselling, and branded merchandise) also had promising evidence to support their use with Chinese-speaking participants whilst two components had mixed (patient navigation) or aggregated (media campaign) evidence. One intervention component for use with Arabic-speaking participants had promising evidence to support its use (opportunity to be screened) and eight intervention components had mixed or aggregated support (education sessions, written information, patient navigation, visual information, peer/community health worker, peer experience, media campaign, and anatomical models). Gaps in the evidence There were four noteworthy gaps in the evidence: 1. No systematic review was captured for Q1, and only two studies were randomised controlled trials. Much of the evidence is therefore based on lower level study designs, with risk of bias. 2. Many studies provided inadequate detail regarding their intervention design which impacts both the quality appraisal and how mixed finding results can be interpreted. 3. Several intervention components were found to have supportive evidence available only at the aggregate level. Further research is warranted to determine the interventions effectiveness with the individual CALD participant group only. 4. The evidence regarding the effectiveness of certain intervention components were either unknown (no studies) or insufficient (only one study) across CALD groups. This was the predominately the case for Arabic-speaking participants for both Q1 and Q2, and for Vietnamese-speaking participants for Q1. Further research is therefore warranted. Applicability Most of the intervention components included in this review are applicable for use in the Australian context, and NSW specifically. However, intervention components assessed as having insufficient, mixed, or no evidence require further research. Cancer screening and tobacco cessation interventions targeting Chinese-speaking participants were more common and therefore showed more evidence of effectiveness for the intervention components explored. There was support for cancer screening intervention components targeting Vietnamese-speaking participants but not for tobacco cessation interventions. There were few interventions implemented for Arabic-speaking participants that addressed tobacco cessation and screening adherence. Much of the evidence for Vietnamese and Arabic-speaking participants was further limited by studies co-recruiting multiple CALD groups and reporting aggregate results. Conclusion There is sound evidence for use of a range of intervention components to address tobacco cessation and cancer screening adherence among Chinese-speaking populations, and cancer screening adherence among Vietnamese-speaking populations. Evidence is lacking regarding the effectiveness of tobacco cessation interventions with Vietnamese- and Arabic-speaking participants, and cancer screening interventions for Arabic-speaking participants. More research is required to determine whether components considered effective for use in one CALD group are applicable to other CALD populations.

Abstract:
On 14 March 2023 the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf) hosted the Water Security Seminar to launch the ASSAf Statement on Water Security in South Africa, and engage across sectors on solutions to strengthen water sustainability. The crafting of the Statement was necessitated by the United Nations 2023 Water Conference and to highlight the socio-economic threat in the face of continuously declining water security in South Africa, thus a call for action. The solution targeted Statement was crafted by a 20-member panel from various local institutions. The Statement was in sync with the discussion themes of the UN 2023 Water Conference, namely, (1) Water for Health, (2) Water for Development, (3) Water for Climate, Resilience and Environment, (4) Water for Cooperation, and (5) Water Action Decade. During the Seminar, the Statement was handed over to the water sector leader, the Department of Water and Sanitation represented by their Chief Engineer, Mr Mark Bannister. Mr Bannister additionally gave an overview of South Africa’s progress concerning Sustainable Development Goal 6. Sectors that attended the Seminar include, government (national and local government), academia and research institutions, water boards, business, agriculture, energy generation, media, non-governmental organisations. Seminar attendance by youth was noteworthy as represented by: Jabulani Technical Secondary School (Soweto), South African Young Academy of Science, Sibayeni Metro Farming, Young Water Professionals, South Africa Youth Parliament for Water. During the Seminar, ASSAf additionally communicated endeavours to establish the ASSAf Water Security Forum as a multi-sectoral platform to engage on water issues concerning South Africa.
