No full textبحث الدراسة سياسات تسعير الكتاب المطبوع في دور النشر العربية؛ للوقوف على العوامل الرئيسة التي تدخل مباشرة في احتساب سعره. واعتمدت الدراسة على المنهج الميداني القائم على عينة وزعت إلكترونيا على مجتمع الدراسة، وبلغ عدد الاستبيانات المسترجعة 34 استبيانا بنسبة 22.37% من إجمالي (152 دار نشر) في تسع دول عربية. وأسفرت الدراسة عن الكثير من العوامل التي تؤثر على تسعير الكتاب العربي المطبوع، على نحو ما نجد في مواد الطباعة إذ جاء "الورق" أولا بنسبة (39.2%)، "والتجليد" ثانيا بنسبة (36.5%). وفيما يتعلق بتصدير الكتب وتأثيره على تسعيرها فقد وافق على ذلك 71% من عينة الدراسة، إذ جاء "التحميل والنقل" (34.38%) في المرتبة الأولى، ثم "الجمارك" (25%) كأبرز العوامل المؤثر في ذلك. وفيما يتعلق بتكاليف التوزيع وتأثيرها على التسعير فقد جاء في مقدمتها "تكاليف الاتفاق مع الموزعين وخصومات البيع" (66.67%). وبخصوص أسواق الكتب الموازية فقد وافق (76.5%) على تأثيرها في تسعير الكتاب، إذ جاءت "محلات بيع الكتب التي تعدد نسخها وتبيعها بأسعار زهيدة" في مقدمتها (32.35%). وفيما يتعلق بدور المؤلف في التسعير فقد وافق (66.5%) على عدم تدخله، إلا إذا كان النشر على حسابه الخاص (62.5%). كما أسفرت الدراسة الميدانية عن غياب الرقابة الرسمية على تسعير الكتاب العربي المطبوع (100%). وانتهت الدراسة ببعض التوصيات لكل من الحكومات العربية، واتحاد الناشرين العرب، وكذا الناشرين؛ حتى يصبح الكتاب العربي المطبوع في متناول شريحة كبيرة من القراء.
This study examines the policies of Arab publishers in pricing the printed book in terms of publishing process in order to find out the main factors that are directly involved in calculating its price. The study depended on the field methodology using a questionnaire distributed electronically to the study community of publishers in the Arab region. The total number of returned questionnaires was 34 (22.37%). The results revealed some important factors that affect the pricing of Arab printed book in general. The most important factors are "Paper '(39.2%), and "Binding" (36.5%). The study found that the export of books has an impact on the price by 71%, followed by "Loading and transport" (34.38%) and "Customs" (25%) as the most influential factors. The results explained that the distribution costs had an impact on book pricing by (66.67%) regarding to the "Costs of Agreement with Distributors and Sales Discounts". Also, the parallel books markets affected the book prices by 76.5% for the "Shops Selling Books" as the first rank. Regarding the author's role in pricing, the study found that 66.5% of Arab publishers confirm that the author does not intervene in this context unless the publishing process based on his own expense (62.5%). The study also revealed the lack of official control over the pricing of the printed Arabic book (100%). The study ended with some recommendations for Arab governments, the Arab Publishers' Union and publishers, so that the printed Arabic book can be accessible to a large readership
PROJETO PROTÓTIPO AGITADOR DE AMOSTRAS PARA TESTE DE AFLATOXINAS
No full text<p>Quando tratamos projetos de produtos é fundamental entender a complexidade que envolve o desenvolvimento de qualquer item, como afirmado por Carpes Jr. (2014), a produção de um produto. Este artigo enfoca na importância da metodologia de projeto na criação de produtos e destaca a necessidade de seguir um processo estruturado, conforme recomendado por Pahl e Beitls (1996) e exemplificando nas fases da norma VDI 2221. O estudo se concentra no desenvolvimento de um dispositivo de agitação de amostras para testes de aflatoxina em um porto privado, em Porto Velho. A necessidade desse dispositivo surge da busca por maior eficiência e segurança ocupacional, uma vez que a homogeneização manual das amostras apresentava riscos de lesões por esforços repetitivos (LER). O artigo detalha a identificação do problema, pesquisa de mercado e etapas de fabricação. Os resultados revelam um ganho significativo de eficiência e eliminação de riscos ocupacionais. Além disso, o texto aborda as diretrizes legais relacionadas à classificação de milho, enfatizando a importância da detecção de aflatoxinas devido ao risco à saúde humana e animal. Este artigo destaca também a necessidade de seguir metodologia de projeto, considerar a segurança ocupacional e cumprir as diretrizes legais, ilustrando esses princípios por meio do caso prático do desenvolvimento do agitador de amostras no porto privado em Porto Velho</p>

Geophysical datasets used in the paper: Looking for subsurface features: the role of geophysical research in the revitalisation of the palace and park complex in Rzuchów, Poland
No full text<p>Datasets are related to the paper entitled: <strong>Looking for subsurface features: the role of geophysical research in the revitalisation of the palace and park complex in Rzuchów, Poland</strong></p><p>This paper discusses the significance of geophysical research in the context of historical renewal, emphasising its contributions to risk assessment, sustainable redevelopment, and non-uniqueness in geophysical interpretation. The studies were conducted in the surroundings of the Palace of Rzuchów, and they were aimed at locating the modern infrastructure, historical objects, and other environmental elements that either can threaten the renewal process or add value to the historical heritage. We used four geophysical methods to study the palace surroundings: frequency domain electromagnetics, electrical resistivity tomography, proton magnetometry and seismic. Results indicated that the electrical methods are the most predisposed.</p>

Coriandrum inter Silvestria non invenitur, Præcipuum esse constat Ægyptium
No full text<p>In the Roman World, Egyptian coriander was considered the most effective. However, it is not known what the Egyptians themselves thought of it during the time of the Pharaohs. Coriander is only sporadically mentioned in ancient Egyptian textual sources, mostly appearing in the list of drugs in medical texts. This paper, therefore, tries to find out how they thought about it, based on such texts from the New Kingdom Period, when our sources are most abundant. Five medical papyri have been found: <em>Ebers, Hearst, Berlin, Leiden I.348</em> and a recently published scroll from the Louvre Collection, containing it. Micro–Philological research has shown that coriander was a popular medicine in the 18th Dynasty, but it seems never to have been used as a simplex. It was used both externally and internally, and was considered to be particularly effective in the treatment of <em>mtw</em>, both in terms of blood vessels and muscles/tendons, but also in terms of other applications, in line with current knowledge of the efficacy of coriander. </p>
