Optimization and assessment method for total energy system retrofit in the petrochemical industry considering clean energy substitution for fossil fuel

Carbon emission peak and neutrality prospect has expedited the revolution of conventional energy utilization mode, particularly in highly energy-intensive industries. The petrochemical industry bears great responsibility for energy conservation and carbon emission reduction. TES (Total Energy System) retrofit schemes in the petrochemical industry classified as REST (Retrofitting through Energy-Saving Techniques) and RSFC (Retrofitting through Substituting Fossil fuel with Clean energy) have emerged in large numbers recently. It is challenging for energy managers to optimize and assess TES retrofit schemes simultaneously and globally, once clean energy supply is involved. State-of-the-art assessment and optimization method for TES retrofitting is urgently needed. This work proposes a novel optimization and assessment method based on the exergy conversion and consumption processes to figure out the most cost-effective retrofit schemes in view of exergy analysis. The method features with the simulation of TES, the clean energy substitution for fossil fuel, the optimization of the subsystems, and the exergy efficiency assessment of retrofit schemes. The double-parallel-loop application framework is then presented, which deals with the optimization and assessment of RSFC and REST simultaneously. Combined plants of continuous catalytic reforming and aromatic extraction plants along with their matched TES are investigated. A MINLP optimization model is formulated and programmed with GAMS software. The optimal results show that the total exergy consumption decreased by 3200 kW with clean energy substitution. Sensitivity analysis explores the energy conservation benefits and exergy efficiency improvement when clean energy with different qualities and quantities substituting for fossil fuel, which provides valuable information for feasibly implementing retrofit schemes. Comparison of scenarios reveals the interacting influence between the implementation of RSFC and REST, which is significant for decision-making when multiple retrofit schemes are alternatives. Real-world case investigations demonstrate the validation and efficacy of the proposed method. The main findings of this study are significant and quantitative references for petrochemical industrial practice, which would contribute to energy conservation and carbon emission reduction in the future.

Coping in times of disruption and deprivation-Experiences of family members during COVID-19 patients' critical illness: A qualitative study.

To explore the experiences and needs of family members during the course of COVID-19 critical illness from onset to rehabilitation. An exploratory qualitative study. Twelve family members of surviving critically ill COVID-19 patients and restricted from visiting the patients, were interviewed digitally. Reflexive thematic analysis was used. Three themes were generated from the data; 'Experiencing a double burden', 'Becoming an insignificant other' and 'Regaining significance'. Family members were often ill themselves, which represented an extra burden when the patient deteriorated. From admission, the family members became bystanders, deprived of most contact with the patients, as communication and information from the intensive care unit appeared unstructured and haphazard. However, when patients were discharged, great responsibility was placed on the family members.

With great power comes great responsibilities – Examining platform-based mechanisms and institutional trust in rideshare services

From the perspective of female passengers, much remains unknown about institutional or platform trust and the sharing economy. The present study was conducted in an emerging economy context to comprehend the significance of institutional trust. The study aimed to develop a dynamic theoretical model incorporating the perceived effectiveness of platform-based institutional structures (PEPIS) as a dependent variable in sharing economy platforms, examine the antecedents of PEPIS and determine how PEPIS affects female passengers' trust in the institution or platform. Different strata of female passengers were targeted using a quota-cum-purposive sampling method. In total, 413 useable responses to a pre-tested survey questionnaire were collected. Our findings contribute to the literature on institutional structures and trust by demonstrating that four market-driven institutional mechanisms directly and significantly influence PEPIS: perceived effectiveness of feedback mechanism, perceived effectiveness of escrow services, perceived effectiveness of provider certification and perceived effectiveness of urgent rescue; PEPIS is directly related to perceived trust in the platform (TRST); the relationships between TRST and the study's outcome variables (subjective well-being, intention to recommend, and continuous usage intention) were also tested and found significant. It was also found that TRST promotes female users' continuous usage intention, intention to recommend and subjective well-being.

Midwives’ descriptions of strategies and requirements when following up pregnant women at risk of developing perinatal depression - a qualitative study

Introduction: According to the guidelines, health-care personnel should have routines to identify depression and anxiety,but no screening tool is required. The aim of the study is to describe how midwives in antenatal care describe strategiesand requirements when following up pregnant women at risk of developing perinatal depression. Methods: Study is designed as qualitative descriptive study. It includes authorized midwives who work in prenatal carein Western Norway (n = 11) were interviewed between October 21 and November 02, 2021. Verbatim transcribedinterviews were analyzed using manifest qualitative content analysis. The study was performed in accordance with theConsolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research. Results: The manifest content analysis revealed three categories: (1) Midwife as haven, (2) Growing into the professionalrole as a midwife and (3) Organizational challenges in antenatal care. The midwives also expressed that they feltthey were saddled with a great responsibility that could be a lot to bear. Clinical experience was highlighted as essentialsources of self-confidence in work. Conclusion: Identified categories confirm some crucial issues in midwifery-led maternity care, such as the need for continuousprofessional training, clear local guidelines, and sufficient time for consultation with women at risk of developingperinatal depression. The findings also reflect the importance of early detection of these women to offer support andassistance throughout pregnancy and after delivery.

User Experiences of Well-Being Chatbots.

The current paper conducted two parallel studies to explore user experiences of well-being conversational agents (CAs) and identify important features for engagement. Students transitioning into university life take on greater responsibility, yet tend to sacrifice healthy behaviors to strive for academic and financial gain. Additionally, students faced an unprecedented pandemic, leading to remote courses and reduced access to healthcare services. One tool designed to improve healthcare accessibility is well-being CAs. CAs have addressed mental health support in the general population but have yet to address physical well-being support and accessibility to those in disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds where healthcare access is further limited. Study One comprised a thematic analysis of mental health applications featuring CAs from the public forum, Reddit. Study Two explored emerging usability themes of an SMS-based CA designed to improve accessibility to well-being services alongside a commercially available CA, Woebot. Study One identified several themes, including accessibility and availability, communication style, and anthropomorphism as important features. Study Two identified themes such as user response modality, perceived CA role, question specificity, and conversation flow control as critical for user engagement. Various themes emerged from individuals' experiences regarding CA features, functionality, and responses. The mixed experiences relevant to the communication and conversational styles between the CA and the user suggest varied motivations for using CAs for mental and physical well-being. Practical recommendations to encourage continued use include providing dynamic response modalities, anthropomorphizing the chatbot, and calibrating expectations early.

Child health nursing in the Solomon Islands: A qualitative evaluation of the impact of the 'Bachelor of nursing - Child health'.

To explore graduates' perceptions of the impact on nursing practice of a new postgraduate course in child health, developed and implemented in the Solomon Islands in 2016. The Bachelor of Nursing -Child Health was implemented in 2016 to develop nurses' knowledge and skills in child health and paediatric care with the intent to improve national child health outcomes. A qualitative exploratory, descriptive design was used to evaluate the impact of the Bachelor of Nursing -Child Health on graduates' nursing practice. Fourteen nurses who graduated from the first cohort of students enrolled in the child health course were purposively selected to participate. Participants engaged in individual semi-structured interviews, conducted between August and December 2018. A thematic analysis was undertaken following Braun and Clarke's six-phase process. Findings from the study demonstrate positive impacts of the course on graduates' nursing practice. These include a perceived enhanced quality of care through their commitment to evidence-based practice, the ability to contribute to capacity building of colleagues, the reinforcement of provincial public health programmes and expanded participation in managerial activities. Following graduation, most alumni took on senior roles and greater responsibilities, felt more confident in managing unwell children, felt there was better access to and quality of child health care at the community and broader country levels and felt recognised by colleagues and communities. Some graduates faced resistance from colleagues to change practice and felt that despite being given greater responsibilities, nursing levels and salaries remained unchanged. This reflected a potential lack of recognition from hospital or provincial managers, the Nursing Council as the regulatory body for the nursing profession, and the Ministry of Health and Medical Services. A lack of human and material resources also impacted quality of care. Findings from this study underline the need for the Solomon Islands National University, the Nursing Council, the Public Service and the Ministry of Health and Medical Services to concord and delineate formal accreditation standards for child health nurses. Overall, collaborative efforts and commitments at local, regional and global levels are required to support child health nurses in their ability and ambition to improve national child health outcomes. Findings from this study demonstrate positive impacts of the course on graduates' nursing practice. The impact of increasing nurses' knowledge and skills on national child health outcomes could be significant. Ongoing implementation and recognition of this course in the Solomon Islands, as well as more broadly across the Pacific region, are recommended.

Pragmalinguistic features of periphrasis of modern media text

The article considers the pragmalinguistic features of the periphrases used in the modern media space. Despite the richness and fertility of the Kazakh language, members of society, in order to convey their thought as briefly as possible, tend to use borrowed words in their speech. This process has a negative impact on both the thinking system and the general culture of a person. Therefore, in everyday life, it is necessary to widely promote the use of figurative expressions that reflect the artistic competence of our native language, in particular, the use of paraphrases that have a special place. The implementation of the above task can be rationally and easily carried out through the mass media, which occupy a reliable place in all spheres of public life. In this regard, the topic of the author of the article, who has set the goal of giving a semantic pragma linguistic analysis of the periphrasis of the modern media text, is relevant, and the given facts are valid and realistic. The main objects of research in the field of linguo-pragmatics are media texts of various subjects published in modern Kazakh-language media. The author classifies fragments of media texts used in peripheral units, collected from publications and websites familiar to the modern readers of Kazakhstan, in relation to a number of areas of public life. The ability to use appropriately and effectively the rich vocabulary of the native language to convey the final pragmatic position of the author of the media text is an interesting and complex task that requires a great responsibility from the researcher. The applicant aims to meet such a high standard and to use the latest research in the field of linguistics. Keywords: periphrasis; media text; social status; linguopragmatics.

The meaningful (elderly dancing) body – intertwined, border-crossing and at home

Having the possibility to experience meaning in artistic settings is a human right. However, several studies show that structures and norms may prevent human beings from participating in artistic and cultural activities. Moreover, it is not given that all forms of participation offer meaningful experiences, something which puts a great responsibility upon organizers of artistic events. The current study is based in a project where elderly people were given the chance to participate in processes of development and performance of collaborative contemporary dance. The specific aim of the study was to describe and analyse the phenomenon of the meaningful body based on a phenomenological approach. To get access to the dancers’ lived experiences, six participants were interviewed. The transcribed interviews were analysed in a phenomenological manner. The analysis resulted in three themes, which together describe the phenomenon of the lived body, namely: the intertwined body, the border-crossing body, and the body feeling at home. The themes are related to phenomenological philosophy regarding aging, awareness, existence, and aesthetic experience, as well as to art education situations and societal norms. Keywords: elderly dancers, meaningful body, phenomenology, intertwinement, border-crossing, joy Webpage photo: Anders Larsson

The relationship among safety leadership, risk perception, safety culture, and safety performance: Military volunteer soldiers as a case study.

Safety is fundamental to any organization; if not based on safety, organizational decision-making and management would be meaningless. For a country, soldiers are responsible for national security; they serve as a barrier that defends a country against external invasive forces, thus assuming great missions and responsibilities on their shoulders. To ensure soldiers fulfill their duties of protecting the country and the people, they should gain clear risk perception, which should be instilled into them during their daily combat readiness training. Only when their performances meet safety criteria can they become a strong fighting force. This study recruited military volunteer soldiers as its research participants and employed convenience sampling to distribute questionnaires. In total, this research collected 725 valid copies, of which the data were used to explore the relationship among safety leadership, risk perception, safety culture, and safety performance. To achieve this goal, this study proposed some research hypotheses based on literature review. The hypotheses were all verified via latent variable modeling and multiple hierarchical regression analysis after the reliability and validity of each construct had been tested via confirmatory factor analysis. The research results showed that the more deeply military volunteer soldiers sense safety leadership, the clearer their risk perception will be and the more helpful it would be in achieving safety performance. It is worth mentioning that risk perception can serve as a mediator while safety culture can mediate the relationship between safety leadership and safety performance. Lastly, the research proposes suggestions in the section of conclusions, which provides reference to the combat readiness training and daily tasks of soldiers.
