Saving is an activity to prepare future costs so that all the necessities of life remain stable and orderly. Mental preparation before saving is to be frugal. Without this it is very difficult to save. Various methods of saving, including saving at home, saving in the bank. The author examines the method of saving the number of perspectives in the time of the Prophet Joseph (as). that is, setting aside more of the earth's savings than allocating consumptive needs. As a result, when a famine occurs / economic crisis, the savings can meet the conditions of a famine that are met in a stable and orderly manner. Saving for 7 years, the savings can meet the needs for the next 7 years during famine. Writing this with the literature method, which uses the approach of interpretive studies and then analyzed and applied in the present age. The results of the analysis that the theory of saving is a quota of more savings the money from income than expenditure.

Full textAbstract:
It is essential to evaluate the safety of the life-saving passage in building ruins and to ensure the “double safety” of rescuers and trapped people during the earthquake rescue; however, there are few studies on the safety evaluation method of life-saving passage. In this paper, the vertical displacement of wood shoring is proposed as an evaluation indicator of the saving-life passage considering the characteristics of building ruins and the size of the living space of the trapped. Taking life-saving passage of the pancake-type building ruins as research object, the evaluation of the safety of the life-saving passage was investigated under the action of aftershock. The vertical bearing capacity test of wood shoring is performed in order to obtain the evaluation indicator of saving-life passage. The restart function of ANSYS/LS-DYNA program is used to re-edit the numerical model of the building ruins to construct the life-saving passage, then, the safety evaluation of life-saving passage of the pancake-type building ruins is investigated under the action of aftershock. The results show that the constructed life-saving passage passed the safety evaluation under the actions of different aftershocks. The possibility of the secondary collapse of the life-saving passage increases exponentially with the increase of rescue time within “72-hour gold rescue,” and the growth is slow after 72 hours when the magnitude of the main earthquake reaches above 7.4; the safety factor K should be increased appropriately if wood shoring is used to construct a life-saving passage when the main earthquake’s magnitude is greater than or equal to 7.5. The safety evaluation method of life-saving passage can provide effective reference for earthquake rescue.

Full textAbstract:
It is a very important task to construct a life-saving passage in building ruins rapidly and scientifically in the process of earthquake rescue. Currently, the virtual scene is built to train rescuers to construct the life-saving passage quickly and scientifically. However, there are problems such as high cost, small quantity, and single form. A new method of constructing building ruins and life-saving passage was proposed based on the combined finite element (FE) and finite-discrete element (F-DE) method and restarted function of LS-DYNA program. First, taking the RC frame structure ruins as research objection, the different types of life-saving passages were constructed. What’s more, a simple and reasonable optimization method of life-saving passage is proposed based on the rescue technologies with the shortest time. Meanwhile, the timing test of four typical rescue technologies was performed considering the influence factors of various rescue situations. Finally, the practicability and validation of the optimization method was verified through comparing with actual earthquake rescue case. The results show that the restart function of ANSYS/LS-DYNA program can construct the life-saving passage rapidly and reasonably, and simultaneously, the optimal method of life-saving passage can give the optimal rescue route intuitively and accurately. The numerical simulation method of construction and optimization of life-saving passages is expected to provide theoretical guidance for rescue drills for on-site earthquake rescue.

This study aimed to examine savings behavior of 97 women in the millennial generation and Gen Z group who live in rural areas. Recent surveys show that millennials and Gen Z recognize the importance of saving but only have savings that are enough to fulfill their life for three months. The research was conducted using a quantitative experimental between subject design method to answer questions regarding the influence of financial knowledge socialization on financial literacy. A non-experimental quantitative study was conducted to determine the moderating role of self-control on the influence of financial literacy on saving behavior through self-report on valid and reliable questionnaires and scales. The study results show that financial literacy and self-control have a role in explaining saving behavior (R2 = 0.52, p ≤ 0.05). Financial literacy has a significant positive impact in increasing saving behavior. Self-control also has an equally significant influence in explaining saving behavior. However, through testing the moderating role, self-control has a significant negative impact in influencing the relationship between financial literacy and saving behavior, this is interesting for further discussion.

The researcher aimed to examine the saving behaviour of income earners in Thai municipalities using a survey research method. The questionnaires were validated by experts, and data from 400 questionnaires were analysed using multiple regression analysis (including the mean and standard deviation). The results showed that most people had savings, which, if the savers had no main income, would be sufficient to sustain life for less than three months. Also, their incomes were mostly allocated for expenses, with the remainder deposited as savings. The proportion of savings per month was about 5–15%, and the overall purpose of saving money was to provide for old age or retirement. The main factor used to choose a form of savings was the rate of return. The savings trend is likely to continue in the future. The internet was a source of knowledge about saving plans, and most savings were in the form of money deposited with financial institutions. The researcher found that personal factors, such as income and occupation; financial skill factors, such as financial literacy, financial behaviour, and financial attitude; and self-control influenced the saving behaviour of income earners in Thai municipalities with a statistical significance of p-value at 0.01.

Abstract Objectives: How individuals and families accumulate retirement resources during working years is a key aspect of aging with implications for later life. This study examines how much, and by what mechanisms, savings in retirement plans vary by race/ethnicity. Method: Using representative survey data and linked W-2 tax records, we estimate the probability of participation in employer-sponsored defined contribution (DC) retirement plans with probit regression, and contribution levels with ordinary least squares (OLS) models. We use Heckman models to adjust for potential sample selection. Results: Black and Hispanic workers have lower participation and contributions in employer-sponsored DC retirement plans than do white workers, while Asian Americans have higher levels. The bulk of racial/ethnic differences is attributed to socioeconomic position, especially education and labor market circumstances like earnings. Differentials are also associated with family circumstances, namely for black workers. After accounting for education, labor market, and family covariates, social-psychological factors appear to explain only small portions of differences, especially for black and Hispanic. Discussion: This study clarifies how racial/ethnic disparities in socioeconomic circumstances generate advantages and disadvantages in retirement wealth accumulation. Lower DC retirement plan participation and contributions among minorities in work life represent an underappreciated earlier-life channel through which racial inequalities in income and wealth in later life are generated.

Abstract : This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and self-control on the saving behavior of millennial employees, as well as the moderating role of lifestyle in the relationship. Financial literacy, which includes an individual’s understanding of basic financial concepts and money management, is hypothesized to play an important role in increasing saving behavior. Self-control, an individual’s ability to resist consumer impulses and make wise financial decisions, is also considered a key factor influencing the tendency to save. However, excessive consumption behavior as part of the millennial lifestyle can potentially hinder savings efforts even though they have adequate financial literacy and self-control. In this study, lifestyle is modeled as a moderating variable that can weaken or strengthen the influence of financial literacy and self-control on saving behavior. Data collection was conducted through a survey of millennial employees from various job sectors. Data analysis used the moderated regression method to test the interaction between financial literacy, self-control, and lifestyle in influencing saving behavior. The results showed that financial literacy and self-control had a significant positive effect on saving behavior. However, lifestyle acts as a negative moderator, where a consumptive lifestyle weakens the relationship between financial literacy and self-control with saving behavior. This finding provides practical implications for individuals and companies, especially in raising awareness of the importance of lifestyle control and financial literacy to encourage better saving behavior among millennial employees.

Full textAbstract:
Research background: The paper investigates the impact of bequest taxation on saving and transfers when parents and children make decisions consistently. It complements the predictions of Gale and Perozek's life-cycle modeling (2001) when decisions of parents and children are set independently and can be time-inconsistent. Purpose of the article: The paper strives to answer the question of whether taxation of bequest harms savings and inter vivos transfers. The previous results indicated that this is possible for some bequest motives. Our results show that this is not likely for the most typical values of parameters. Methods: The analysis involves economic modeling of four bequest motives: altruistic, paternalistic, accidental, and exchange. The method is based on the overlapping generation approach and life-cycle approach in the case of a paternalistic bequest. The results are supplemented with numerical simulations. Findings & value added: For the altruistic motive, savings are smaller if interest rates are low relative to the tax rate and the utility of one's consumption is more valuable than the utility of the next generations. For the accidental motive, savings decrease with small interest rates, high taxation and long-life expectancy. For the paternalistic motive, savings decrease when the interest rate and the value of future utility are low. For the exchange motive, savings are higher after a tax increase, but it depends on the value of attention and life expectancy. The general conclusion is that higher bequest taxation hamper saving behavior and may disturb the intergenerational exchange process. The bequest tax should, therefore, be set low, especially for aging populations, in order to induce higher savings and force the young to provide the elderly with higher attention.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explores the impact of both long- and short-term saving-investment nexus on Nigeria’s current account balance. It examines the relationship between domestic savings, investments and current account balance by analysing the position of selected demographic variables in Nigeria, both in the short- and long-term, using the ARDL cointegration method, and a sample period from 1980 to 2018. The study tested whether there was empirical evidence supporting the life-cycle hypothesis (LCH) in Nigeria. However, the study revealed that the coefficient of error correction was negative and highly significant, as well as establishing a long-term cointegration. The study revealed a negative sign of life expectancy; and the ratio of total age dependence was found to be statistically significant, thus indicating that a unit increase in life expectancy and the ratio of total age dependence could result in a decline in current account balance in Nigeria by 1.2796 (127%) and 6.43038 (643%), respectively. This result supported the presence of the LCH theory on saving actions in Nigeria, since people could borrow. In addition, the population growth exhibited a positive relationship with current account balance. Therefore, a unit change in the population age structure is expected to influence saving, investment and current account balance; especially with an increase in population, because the current account is, by definition, equal to the saving-investment balance.

The current state of surgery for vestibular schwannomas (VSs) is the result of a century of step-by-step technical progress by groundbreaking surgeons who transformed the procedure from its hazardous infancy and high mortality rate to its current state of safety and low morbidity rate. Harvey Cushing advocated bilateral suboccipital decompression and developed the method of intracapsular tumor enucleation. Walter Dandy supported the unilateral suboccipital approach and developed the technique of gross-total tumor resection. Microsurgical techniques revolutionized VS surgery to its current status. In this article, the authors review the early history of surgery for VSs with an emphasis on contributions from pioneering surgeons. The authors examined the Cushing Brain Tumor Registry for clues regarding the bona fide intention of Cushing for the resection of these tumors.

Full textAbstract:
Traditional energy-saving optimization of shop scheduling often separates the coupling relationship between a single machine and the shop system, which not only limits the potential of energy-saving but also leads to a large deviation between the optimized result and the actual application. In practice, cutting-tool degradation during operation is inevitable, which will not only lead to the increase in actual machining power but also the resulting tool change operation will disrupt the rhythm of production scheduling. Therefore, to make the energy consumption calculation in scheduling optimization more consistent with the actual machining conditions and reduce the impact of tool degradation on the manufacturing shop, this paper constructs an integrated optimization model including a flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP), machining power prediction, tool life prediction and energy-saving strategy. First, an exponential function is formulated using actual cutting experiment data under certain machining conditions to express cutting-tool degradation. Utilizing this function, a reasonable cutting-tool change schedule is obtained. A hybrid energy-saving strategy that combines a cutting-tool change with machine tool turn-on/off schedules to reduce the difference between the simulated and actual machining power while optimizing the energy savings is then proposed. Second, a multi-objective optimization model was established to reduce the makespan, total machine tool load, number of times machine tools are turned on/off and cutting tools are changed, and the total energy consumption of the workshop and the fast and elitist multi-objective genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is used to solve the model. Finally, combined with the workshop production cost evaluation indicator, a practical FJSP example is presented to demonstrate the proposed optimization model. The prediction accuracy of the machining power is more than 93%. The hybrid energy-saving strategy can further reduce the energy consumption of the workshop by 4.44% and the production cost by 2.44% on the basis of saving 93.5% of non-processing energy consumption by the machine on/off energy-saving strategy.

Full textAbstract:
Daylight utilization is one of the key areas for energy savings in indoor environments. An important factor often not considered by the existing daylight utilization approaches is the segregation of the floor into task areas and non-task areas. It is also observed that the inherent asymmetry in the daylight penetration pattern in most indoor environments is not given consideration while designing artificial lighting arrangements. Moreover, daily and annual daylight availability is found to have a symmetrical variation pattern, which is a significant factor often overlooked in utilizing daylight. Thus, the energy assessment can be inaccurate, leading to an incorrect or impractical evaluation of energy savings. This research proposes a comprehensive new approach to assess the energy-saving potential of daylight utilization in indoor environments. This new method combines two approaches to overcome the aforementioned issues. (1) The considered area is segmented into task area and non-task areas (or surrounding area) and considers different levels of required illuminance for each separate area. (2) The variation of available daylight at the considered location is accounted for by dividing the daylight penetration into multiple levels. For the study, the method is first applied to a simulated office space considering real-life parameters, where the annual energy savings were estimated at 83.67%. For further validation, a comparison with a case from an existing method was also carried out, and the proposed method gave an energy saving estimation of 73.45%. This indicates a 10% higher energy saving estimation as compared to the original study, against which the proposed method was compared.

Full textAbstract:
Caesarean Section (CS) is one of the delivery options in obstetric medicine. The procedure is adjudged worldwide to be a safe method or delivery option where vaginal delivery may not be safe for the mother, (like case of small pelvis, placental praevia, pre-eclampsia, and maternal distress) and or the child, (macrosomia, cephalopelvic disproportion, breech presentation, and foetal distress). CS must be medically prescribed by the obstetrician based on maternal parameters, and foetal conditions, during gestation and delivery. CS rates are higher in developed countries due to factors like, delayed child bearing, policies promoting repeat CS, refusal of vaginal births after CS, wide use of continuous electronic foetal monitoring, use of epidural analgesia, fear of malpractice liability and maternal request. Maternal request of CS is common in developed countries of the world, which has added to the increasing global rates of the procedure (21.1%). On the other hand, in developing countries, the rates are lower (2% in Nigeria) because pregnant women fear of irreparable damage after CS, safety of the CS, religious and social factors, stigmatization attached to CS delivery and value vaginal delivery. The value of CS as a life – saving method of delivery and a delivery option cannot be overemphasized, but it must be prescribed by the obstetrician based on evidence of maternal parameters and foetal conditions. <strong>Keywords</strong>: Caesarean Section, Delivery Option, Life – Saving method, Pregnant Women,

Full textAbstract:
The design methodology described in this paper takes a substantial shift from conventional methods. Traditionally sizing is based on the worst expected load scenario. By contrast to this conventional passive approach the method presented here replaces passive member strategically with active elements (actuators) which are only activated when the loads reach a certain threshold. The structure can withstand low level of loads passively. Above the threshold, actuation comes in to allow the structure to cope with high but rare loading scenarios. Active control introduces operational energy consumption in addition to the energy embodied in a passive design. In this paper we use this dual design to minimize the overall energy required by the structures. This methodology has been used on a simple truss structure and it was showed that it allows significant weight saving compared to conventional passive design. We extend the application of the methodology to a more complex 3D structure. It is confirmed that an optimum activation threshold exists that leads to design that minimises the total energy of the structure. Compared to an optimised passive design we show that the total energy saving is 10-fold.

Abstract Background Inter-hospital transfer is intended to provide access to centralized special care for critically ill patients, when resources in their hospitals are not available. However, an empirical gap exists in available evidence, as outcomes of transferred patients to higher centers are inconsistent. Method Single center propensity score matching retrospective observational study. Life-Saving transfers during 2023 were matched to direct admissions to the ICU. Hospital mortality, ICU length of stay, and costs of both groups were compared. Results During the study period, 328 Life-Saving transfers were matched to 656 direct admissions. Propensity score matching eliminated all imbalances between groups. Hospital mortality was not different between groups, there were 114 (34.8%) hospital mortalities of Life-Saving transfers, while there were 216 (32.9%) hospital mortalities of direct admissions, with a percent difference of 1.9% (95% CI: −4.5%, 8.4%); p value = 0.6, this result persisted in the sensitivity analysis. There were no differences in mortality risks for all the studied subgroups except pediatric patients. ICU length of stay of direct admissions and Life-Saving transfers were 10 ± 13.1 and 11.6 ± 12.4 days respectively, mean difference was statistically significant (−1.6 [95% CI: −3.2, 0.1]; p = 0.005). Life-Saving transfers entailed significantly higher costs per admission by 28,200 thousand SAR (95% CI: 26,400 – 30,000; p < 0.001). Conclusion Our study shows no difference in hospital mortality between Life-Saving transfers and direct admissions to ICU, however, Life-Saving transfers had a longer ICU length of stay, and higher costs per admission.

Emergency peripartum hysterectomy refers to the uterine removal after a caesarean section or normal vaginal delivery for any life saving purpose, immediately after delivery or within the puerperium. In general, abnormal placentation, uterine rupture, and postpartum haemorrhage are the common indications. The prime objective of this study was to determine the frequent indications, peroperative and postoperative complications, maternal and perinatal outcome. This retrospective descriptive study was conducted by analysing recorded data of one year between July 2016 and June 2017 in Faridpur district of Bangladesh. Total 40 cases were analysed. Placenta praevia was the most common indication, whereas uterine rupture was the second one. Urinary bladder injury was the frequent peroperative complication. This bladder injury was common in cases of previous repeated caesarean section associated with placenta praevia. All the patients required three to six unit blood transfusions on average. Four patients expired due to various causes. Most of the patients were elderly aged, multiparous and had previous caesarean sections. The relevant literature analysis was done for comparison, where similarities were found. Total abdominal hysterectomy was the preferred method in this study. Overall, the study will direct the future ways of management.Faridpur Med. Coll. J. Jan 2018;13(1): 12-16

Full textAbstract:
This article explores how we ought, morally speaking, to allocate scarce, life-saving resources such as ventilators or intensive care beds. When there are not enough resources to distribute to all who want and need them, who should receive them? Through an examination of several cases, the article probes the implications regarding this question of two Kantian accounts of respect for the dignity of persons, one an orthodox Kantian account based on an interpretation of the Formula of Humanity and the other an unorthodox reconstruction of part of this formula. The article also investigates the implications of a contemporary triage scheme developed during the Covid-19 pandemic, the Pittsburgh Framework. Each of these three bases for scarce resource distribution has some plausible and implausible results regarding cases that involve patients of various ages, future lifespans (if given the resource), and socioeconomic status (disadvantage). While the article does not intend to vindicate or condemn any one method of distribution, it does aim to illustrate that Kantian thinking can play a salutary role in making hard decisions about scarce medical resource allocation.

This research aims to provide an understanding of the nature of property and ownership as well as the limits of saving that every Muslim needs to understand in order to comply with the rules of the Al-Qur'an and hadith. Based on this understanding, it can be a guide for every believer in how to obtain, use and store the blessings of wealth that have been given by Allah SWT. This research method uses qualitative descriptives which briefly discuss the concept of wealth and the limits of saving or saving money from an Islamic perspective, based on literature studies from the Al-Qur'an and hadith. The research results show that; 1) The essence of wealth is a gift and favor from Allah which is used as a cause for the establishment of benefits for life; 2) The essence of ownership of property is that it completely belongs to Allah which He has given to humans with the aim of being able to use it as well as possible in accordance with Allah's provisions for the welfare of all mankind, and this property is a deposit that will be accounted for in the afterlife, starting from how to get it, use it and save it; 3) The limit of saving money from an Islamic perspective is to be precautionary (money demand for precautionary) not to hoard money, which means preventing carrying out obligations (Allah's rights). However, based on the current concept of modern financial management, saving is done using banking financial institutions, it can be ensured that savings money is managed in accordance with applicable regulations. This is where a customer is required to be able to choose sharia-based banking so that the results from managing savings are guaranteed to be halal in accordance with the concept of sharia

AbstractAs one of the key components of marine reducer, the life reliability of gear is of great significance to the safe operation of the reducer and even the whole transmission system. However, due to economic and testing constraints, executing extensive fatigue life tests on complex and costly gears presents a formidable challenge, resulting in inadequate reliability assessments. In this paper, the gear life reliability analysis method based on the accelerated life test is proposed. By conducting the gear bending fatigue accelerated life test, the life distribution and failure mechanism are determined based on the accelerated life data. Furthermore, the gear life distribution parameters and acceleration model are solved by least squared method. This allows us to derive a reliability index specific to the service conditions, facilitating the evaluation of gear life reliability. The method proposed in this paper provides data and theoretical support for the accelerated life tests, lays a foundation for the gear reliability evaluation under small samples, and improves the efficiency of the gear fatigue life evaluation. It has significant engineering significance in saving test costs, reducing test times and shortening development cycle.

Financial literacy has an important role in the sustainability of an ideal and quality life. Human ability to manage finances affects the welfare of their lives. Knowing financial management patterns is fundamental for each individual elementary school-level child in maintaining balanced financial management. Not all upper-grade students at the elementary school education level are aware of the importance of understanding financial management and saving from an early age. The existence of financial literacy in elementary schools in grade VI classes provides a benchmark for sustainable savings awareness. This study was conducted to determine financial literacy skills as a basis for understanding saving awareness in elementary school students. The sample used in this study was 30 grade VI students at SDN Trimulyo Yogyakarta. This research used a mixed method by collecting data through questionnaires given to students as well as direct interview observations with students and teachers. The results of this study indicate that financial literacy in grade VI students at Trimulyo Elementary School in Yogyakarta has a positive impact on early saving awareness. Based on this, the findings in the field prove that the urgency of saving money in elementary school students has a big impact on simple financial management wisely on an ongoing basis. Thus, elementary school students have good financial literacy skills, as evidenced by the ability to manage money and save it.

Compared with other light sources, LED light source has a longer service life and will not suddenly fail. Due to its high efficiency, energy saving and long life, LED has become the most popular light source at present. However, it is no longer considered to meet the application requirements, and the time that the light flux decays to this level is considered to be the life of the LED. This paper introduces the approximate method used to predict the lumen maintenance life of LED lamps. The experimental results obtained by the approximate method are compared with the TM-21 standard. Eventually, it is concluded that the approximate method provides more reliability information than the original TM-21 standard, and the obtained results are more reference, more accurate and more reliable.

A scheme selection method on the base of super efficiency DEA (DEA, data envelopment analysis) is put forward in order to design an energy-saving product. Firstly, a fishbone figure from the point of view of life cycle is established for the sake of analyzing energy-consumption factors systematically. Secondly, as the restriction of basic DEA model, super efficiency model of DEA is referred to choose the potentially energy-saving project. In view of the high difficulty in acquiring energy-consumption factors, this paper takes all the factors into account to select the scheme of energy-saving design. Finally an example of a blade at the stage of manufacture is introduced to illustrating this model. The achievements above solve the problem of the selection of energy-saving scheme, which provide significant references for product energy-saving design.

Saving is one of the most important things in financial management. Saving is beneficial for the long term for life. In the conventional way, people can save in a closed container or generally use an object called a piggy bank. However, there are still many shortcomings of the current conventional piggy bank, such as having to be disassembled to take the money and it is difficult to monitor the amount of savings in it so that it can only be used once. With the help of technology, these conventional tools can be used better and more efficiently. This smart piggy bank can be integrated with the Telegram when money is inserted so that it becomes more monitored in saving. The money inserted is detected by infrared sensors and color sensors which are then accumulated and sent via Telegram. Previously, there has been similar research in using sensors to detect money and send notifications based on the Internet of Things. This research aims to develop the existing research by integrating some of its features. Testing was conducted using the Black Box method, focusing on the functionality of the device. As a result, the money inserted into the piggy bank can be accumulated properly and monitored via Telegram with a calculation according to the amount of money inserted and can be used by many people because it uses an RFID card that contains user data and savings so that it becomes more efficient and recorded.

Full textAbstract:
The drying process, which is the limiting and power-consuming stage of candied fruits production, has been considered. The heat-transfer processes during the filtration drying of pumpkin candied fruit have been investigated. The filtration drying of finished candied fruits (80 °C) is the filtration of a hot heat agent (100 °C) in the direction of "candied layers – grate". As a result of experimental studies, the kinetic curves of candied fruits drying, as well as the dependence of temperature on the height of the candied fruit layer, were obtained. The experimental data confirm the zonal mechanism of the filtration drying.It was found that during the filtration drying, the upper layers, which reached their final moisture content, overheat and accumulate a considerable amount of unused energy. It was proved that the accumulated energy can be used for drying the lower layers with simultaneous cooling the upper ones. On the basis of the equation of non-stationary heat-mass transfer, the amount of heat is calculated, which will be sufficient to dry the bottom layer. The stoppage time of hot heat agent supply and start of cold heat agent supply were determined. Filtration of cold heat agent through a layer of candied fruits makes it possible to cool the layer, reduce drying time and energy costs for the process.Dried candied fruits have sufficient shelf life, good taste and organoleptic properties.
