FORMATION OF THE IMAGE OF THE CAUCASUS IN FYODOR DOSTOEVSKY’S CREATIVE PERSONALITY
Authors: Mikhnovetc Mariia V.
Published: July 2020

The article explores the Caucasian theme in Fyodor Dostoevsky’s fi ction and non-fi ction writings. The paper is based on a set of biographical, historical-cultural and historical-literary sources of the writer’s knowledge of the Caucasus. The article
shows Fyodor Dostoevsky’s works were marginally affected by the information on the Caucasus and on the Caucasian wars the writer has at his disposal. The writer referred to characters’ military service in the Caucasus several times in his fi ction works, however, such detail never had infl uence on their development. In Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novels, the Caucasus is a stable topos of romantic literature but it often has pejorative overtones. The present study shows a paradoxical discrepancy between the volume of the writer’s knowledge about the Caucasus and the prominence of the Caucasian theme in his works. To further understand this discrepancy, it is important to consider the theme of the Caucasus in the context of the writer’s geopolitical views. Fyodor Dostoevsky appears to have little interest in the ethnocultural features of what he saw as a peripheral region of the Russian Empire. In Fyodor Dostoevsky’s world-view, the Caucasus had no symbolic capital and therefore was only represented using one simplifi ed feature.

Published: July 2020

Los hongos micorrizógenos arbusculares (HMA) son biótrofos obligados de plantas y constituyen uno de los grupos de microorganismos del suelo de distribución más extensa. Una parte fundamental del estudio de estos organismos se ha enfocado a su clasificación, taxonomía y establecimiento de relaciones evolutivas entre HMA. El proceso en el desarrollo de este conocimiento puede ser separado en tres etapas importantes a partir de las primeras observaciones reportadas de estos microorganismos. La primera etapa corresponde al reconocimiento de la diversidad de especies dentro del género Endogone (Zygomycota) y su división en los géneros de HMA Gigaspora, Acaulospora, Glomus y Sclerocystis, así como en los géneros Modicella, Glaziella y Endogone, que no forman micorriza, todos ellos subordinados a Endogonaceae. La segunda etapa involucra el estudio de distintas características morfológicas comunes dentro del grupo de HMA que fueron suficientes para sustentar su separación en un grupo monofilético a nivel de orden (Glomales). Finalmente, la tercer etapa comprende los estudios más recientes en los que se incluye el uso de herramientas de biología molecular, aunado a las observaciones de las características morfológicas, en donde una de las aportaciones más significativas fue identificar y colocar al grupo de HMA en una posición taxonómica superior, agrupando las especies que integraban al orden Glomales en el phylum Glomeromycota. En la presente revisión se aborda cada una de estas etapas en forma detallada, además se presenta un panorama general de los distintos movimientos taxonómicos a los que los HMA han sido sujetos a lo largo de la historia de su estudio.

El análisis de la interacción genotipo por ambiente permite seleccionar genotipos estables, de amplia adaptación y rendimiento superior; así como identificar ambientes en los cuales la interacción con los genotipos sea menor. En los años 2011 y 2012 se sembró un ensayo de rendimiento conformado por 10 líneas avanzadas y dos testigos comerciales de frijol negro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) en 12 combinaciones de localidades y sistemas de producción en los estados de Veracruz y Chiapas, México. En cada localidad se utilizó un diseño de bloques completos al azar con cuatro repeticiones. Los datos de rendimiento se sometieron a análisis de varianza individuales por ambiente y combinado. Para clasificar los ambientes e identificar líneas sobresalientes por su rendimiento de grano y menor interacción con el ambiente, se utilizó el modelo de efectos principales aditivos e interacción multiplicativa (AMMI). De acuerdo con análisis AMMI, el efecto ambiental fue mayor que el de genotipos; las localidades de Martínez de la Torre y San Andrés Tuxtla mostraron menor interacción y se consideran adecuadas para realizar selección en el proceso de mejoramiento. En algunos ambientes la incidencia de enfermedades disminuyó el rendimiento de los genotipos susceptibles y contribuyó al efecto ambiental y a la interacción genotipo x ambiente. En seis de los 12 ambientes de prueba los testigos fueron significativamente (P < 0.05) superados por la mejor línea, que fue superior en seis de los 12 ambientes de prueba. Las líneas NGO 07022 y SCN 2 mostraron baja interacción con los ambientes y estuvieron en el grupo de mayor rendimiento. La línea SEN 70 obtuvo el mayor rendimiento promedio (1437 kg ha-1), superior a los testigos Papaloapan y Comapa en 9 y 7 %, respectivamente, pero mostró alta interacción con el ambiente, con adaptación específica en los ambientes de menor rendimiento.

La madurez fisiológica de la semilla ocurre cuando la acumulación de materia seca es máxima, lo que se ha asociado con máximo rendimiento y calidad de semilla. En esta investigación se registró la cinética de variables relacionadas con el crecimiento de frutos y semillas de un ecotipo comestible de Jatropha curcas L., a partir de las cuales se determinó la madurez fisiológica de las semillas, así como su relación con el color del fruto. En una plantación de cuatro años de edad se evaluaron dos periodos de fructificación en un diseño de bloques completos al azar con tres repeticiones. Se marcaron flores femeninas en antesis para cosechar cada semana y dos cosechas por semana para el primero y segundo periodo, hasta que el exocarpo presentó dehiscencia. En fruto y semilla se midió diámetro, longitud, peso fresco y relación diámetro/longitud; en semilla se cuantificó peso seco y contenido de humedad; en semillas desecadas a la sombra, el peso volumétrico y el peso de mil semillas; y en el fruto se registraron los cambios en coloración. La madurez fisiológica de la semilla o máximo peso seco (654.1 y 639.2 mg/semilla) ocurrió 75 y 78 d después de antesis (dda), con un contenido de humedad de 42.7 y 36.4 %, para el primero y segundo periodo de fructificación. En el fruto, los valores máximos del diámetro se alcanzaron 68 y 57 dda, de longitud a los 75 y 64 dda, y de peso fresco a los 75 y 68 dda. En semilla, los lapsos respectivos para el diámetro fueron 75 y 64 dda, para la longitud, peso fresco y peso de mil semillas fueron 75 y 68 dda; y para peso volumétrico 75 dda. Los valores máximos de los caracteres de semilla coincidieron con el color amarillo del fruto; por lo que esta característica se considera un indicador visual confiable y práctico de la madurez fisiológica de la semilla de esta especie.

La nochebuena de sol (Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch) es un recurso fitogenético nativo de México con importancia económica en el sector ornamental. Los estudios sobre nutrición en esta especie son limitados, por lo que es primordial generar información básica de la demanda total de macronutrimentos y su dinámica de absorción, que ayuden a la generación de paquetes tecnológicos, a disminuir costos en fertilizantes, evitar contaminación ambiental y mantener la calidad de la planta. Se establecieron dos variedades de nochebuena de sol de mayor producción (Valenciana y Rehilete) en un sistema hidropónico abierto con sustrato de tezontle rojo, en invernadero. La nutrición fue suministrada mediante la solución universal de Steiner, con un potencial osmótico de -0.072 MPa. La extracción nutrimental (mg/planta) total al final del ciclo (240 d) fue mayor en Rehilete que en Valenciana: N 1269 vs. 947; P 137 vs. 115; K 433 vs. 390; Ca 234 vs. 192; y Mg 153 vs. 143, respectivamente. El orden de extracción de los nutrimentos en ambas variedades fue: N > K > Ca > Mg > P. La tasa máxima de absorción en Valenciana de N y K fue durante la etapa vegetativa; de P, Ca y Mg fue en la inducción a floración, con valores de N, P, K, Ca y Mg de 12.1, 1.3, 4.4, 1.7 y 1.4 mg/planta por día, respectivamente. En Rehilete, la máxima tasa de absorción de todos los elementos se presentó en la etapa vegetativa, con valores de N, P, K, Ca y Mg de 13.6, 2.1, 6.0, 3.0 y 2.0 mg/planta por día, respectivamente.

En híbridos sobresalientes de maíz (Zea mays L.) puede ocurrir que uno de los progenitores tenga alguna deficiencia agronómica que limite su aprovechamiento. El objetivo de esta investigación fue mejorar la tolerancia al acame del progenitor B-3A mediante el aprovechamiento de su variación intralínea a través de generaciones de autofecundación, sin modificar la aptitud combinatoria para rendimiento de grano de la línea original. Se seleccionaron 150 familias de autohermanos del progenitor B-3A S3; cada familia seleccionada se sembró en parcelas de un surco con 22 plantas. En cada generación se realizó selección dentro de familias para tolerancia al acame, aplicando un jalón y una sacudida fuerte en los tres primeros entrenudos del tallo, y se seleccionaron sólo plantas que no se hayan doblado, inclinado o arrancado de raíz. En la generación S10 se cruzaron 15 sublíneas con el probador B-4A y 21 con B-6A. Las cruzas recobradas B-3A × B-4A y la original se evaluaron en ensayos uniformes en secano en Tepatitlán y Tlajomulco, Jal.; y en San José de Mojarras, Nay., y en punta de riego en Peña del Panal, Mich. Las cruzas recobradas B-3A × B-6A se evaluaron en las mismas localidades, excepto que Tepatitlán se cambió por Iguala, Gro. En ambos experimentos se empleó el diseño bloques completos al azar con dos repeticiones y parcelas de un surco con 25 plantas. Se concluyó que la selección a partir de una línea S3 para seleccionar por tolerancia al acame en generaciones sucesivas de autofecundación no es un método eficiente, pues en la generación S10 sólo dos sublíneas tuvieron 100 % menos acame que la cruza original. La aptitud combinatoria de la línea B-3A, para rendimiento de grano se mantuvo de la generación S3 a S10, ya que entre el rendimiento de grano de la cruza original y las recobradas no hubo diferencias estadísticas significativas.

Predicting the reason and rate of accuracy on heart attacks from ECG reports is a major obsession. The automated analysis technique will age out the problems of common people in understanding the cause for heart attack. This approach has put a serious discussion platform for the analysis of a CBIR system for ECG reports. As the brisk growth of securable image information and a maximum requirement for data documentation indexing and rectification, many scholars, researchers, and scientists worked a lot on the ECG graph report. The aim of this work is to offer a comparative analysis of the several techniques and methods that were used and applied to extricate features from ECG graph reports. Comparison analysis will help the researches and scholars to choose a suitable technique or method for future scope. Several applications of feature extraction and verification are done by many types of research such as heart attack identification based on the feature. Heart attack searching by a doctor is old and required a very long time to identify a stroke. Detecting heart attack from the ECG report is demanding due to misconception, negligence, delay, the difference among the people based on age, gender and so on. Therefore the important work is to furnish an analysis of the accuracy of widely used methods by scholars and researchers in extricating features of the ECG graph reports. Finally, the results of various methods for extricating a feature from the ECG graph reports analyzed vigorously and comparison analysis effort helps the researches to slip out the time complexity in searching for different integration tasks.

Biomass residues have potential to be used as an alternative solid fuel for various processes, also will be responsible for the optimization of the pyrolysis reaction processes, giving insight into the pyrolysis mechanisms and aiding in engineering efforts. There are different methods for production of bio-fuel from biomass residues; however before the production of bio-fuels from biomass it is important to understand their thermal degradation and kinetics. In the present work the Kinetics studies of four different walnut shells, namely, paper (PSW), thin (TSW), medium (MSW) and hard (HSW) shelled walnuts have been studied. Thermal degradation behaviour of walnut shells is investigated using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under three different heating rates (30, 60 and 100 0Cmin−1 ) in an oxidizing atmosphere to understand the kinetic behavior. Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS) and Ozawa–Flynn–Wall (OFW) methods were used to estimate the kinetic parameters such as Pre-exponential factor (R) and average activation energy (Ea ) using TGA data of active zone. The average activation energy of biomass obtained from PSW, TSW, MSW and HSW using KAS method were 198.25, 184.21, 180.93, and 152.79 kJ mol−1 , respectively. Whereas by OFW method the values were found to be 204.10, 186.28, 188.39 and 153.78 kJ mol−1 respectively. Thus the present investigation may be useful for its use as a renewable energy source and potential candidate for fuel production by thermo-chemical processes.

High spatial resolution satellite data is essential to identify small objects and extract minute details of the terrain. This data is provided by many satellites and being used in numerous applications. The realization of high resolution satellite is a challenging task. Significant complexity lies in the realization of high spatial resolution camera starting from material selection, high stiffness-low mass opto-mechanical system design, detector selection to high speed camera electronics design. The mass and size of camera increase with the improvement in spatial resolution. Alternate methods such as Step and Stare, and time delay integration methods can be used to achieve high signal to noise ratio images. The performance of satellite bus subsystems like structure, the data handling, and storage system, the data transmission system, attitude sensors and actuators should also be improved to achieve good quality data. The data handling system has to be designed to handle high data rate and data volume. The capacity of the data storage system has to be increased to cater the high data volume storage requirement. The data transmission system needs to be sufficiently capable to transmit the high volume imaging data to the ground station. As the spatial resolution improves, the spacecraft pointing accuracy and drift rate requirements become stringent. Improved attitude sensors and high capacity actuators are essential to meet these stringent requirements. Generally, high resolution cameras are combined with high speed electronics to handle high data rates which need more power. In this paper, we discuss various techniques being employed to obtain high resolution data with reasonable SNR. The challenges involved and the improvements required in various spacecraft subsystems to support these high resolution cameras are presented. Techniques employed by different space agencies to obtain high spatial resolution images are also discussed. The characteristics of high resolution satellites are also tabulated and compared.

In Continental the, Electronic Control Unit (ECU’s) software consists of 2 parts, the basic software which is the generic part and the application software which does the product specific functionality. The project specific functionality depends upon the product type, like Body domain controller, immobilizer etc. Before the ECU is going to mass production, the controller has to be validated i.e., software and hardware. The main reason is to ensure, that once the ECU is fitted to the vehicle and there is a recall for ECU, it involves additional cost to the organization. The validation of the software includes, checking of the micro controller input, outputs, peripheral drivers, the initialization of the drivers, the timing measurement of the different components. All the parameters are controlled by the generic and application specific modules, and can be configured via configuration tool, manual configuration etc. Since the SW modules are complex and huge, so its need to perform validation of the SW modules manually. This is time consuming process, as it involves checking many c file, configuration files etc. The proposal is to automate the process using Python programming, which interacts with the C code, configuration files, debugger, interacting with the ECU’s peripherals, components and validate the Software parameters before going for series production. In the proposed method the different steps can be automated for different micro-controllers i.e., Renesas RL78 and RH850 used in the ECU’s and different architecture i.e., AUTOSAR and NON-AUTOSAR will be considered and the results will be compared with the manual validation effort and accuracy.

There is a need for safety assistance visual surveillance that can be effectively used to navigate hazardous places which cannot be accessed by human beings. Several high-risk conditions like radioactive zone, toxic environment and accident-prone areas are usually approached/tackled by humans with little to no information about their conditions. Hence our aim is to reduce any human interaction with these unsafe circumstances by proposing a visual surveillance robot that is capable of moving in any terrain and can relay live information to the controller situated at a remote location. In this paper we address the implementation of Visual Surveillance bot by using a Camera that rotates at 360 degree with the help of DC motor, which illustrate the surrounding so as to provide the estimation of danger if any. We present the execution by efficiently live streaming information with the help of Raspberry pi and by using the MATLAB software to create a RADAR plot by analyzing the object detected by Ultrasonic sensor. The usage of MATLAB not only simplifies the analysis but also helps in creating an enhanced RADAR system by using an ARDUINO to support the ultrasonic system in recording the echo time and object detection angle.

Image fusion is viewed as perhaps the best procedure to confine the level of uncertainty and convey a significant feeling of picture lucidity. It is a strategy of combining the appropriate information/data from a group of pictures into a solitary resultant (intertwined) picture that would render higher picture proficiency and clarity. Until now, the image fusion procedures looked like Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) or pixel-based methodologies. These already established methods have limited effectiveness. Also, they fail to deliver the typical outcomes like edge perseverance, spatial resolution, and shift-invariance. To get rid of these demerits, in this paper, we have proposed a hybrid approach called Principal Component Stationary Wavelet Transform (PC-SWT) that combines Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Stationary Wavelet Transform. SWT is an algorithm that defines the wavelet transformation to compensate for the absence of translation invariance in DWT. PCA is a methodical approach that utilizes an orthogonal transformation in order to transform a group of perceptions of possibly correlated values into the principal components, which are linearly uncorrelated variables. When compared to conventional methods, PC-SWT intends to obtain a more efficient, clear, and superior quality image. This fused image is expected to have all of its preserved edges as well as its spatial resolution. In addition to this, it can also be used to deal with shift-invariance.

Hyper spectral imaging (HSI) is a technique that is used to obtain the spectrum for each pixel in the image. It helps in finding objects and identifying materials etc. Such an identification is very difficult using other imaging techniques. It allows the researchers to investigate the documents without any physical contact. Nowadays detection of unequal Ink mismatch based on HSI has shown vast improvement in distinguishing the inks. Detection of unequal Ink mismatch is an unbalanced clustering problem. This paper used K-means Clustering for ink mismatch detection. K-means Clustering find same subgroups in the data based on Euclidean distance. This paper demonstrates performance in unequal Ink mismatch based on HSI.

Este estudo foi desenvolvido no âmbito do Programa Institucional de Bolsa de Iniciação à Docência no contexto do subprojeto “Educação Física escolar: construindo possibilidades pedagógicas a partir de uma perspectiva cultural” do curso de licenciatura em Educação Física da Universidade do Estado da Bahia (UNEB) – Campus XII. As ações pedagógicas foram desenvolvidas em uma instituição de ensino básico da rede pública, situada no município de Guanambi-Ba, compreendido no período de março a novembro de 2017. As informações necessárias à elucidação do problema da pesquisa foram produzidas no contexto da intervenção pedagógica e posteriormente sistematizadas e analisadas. Essas informações foram coletadas por meio de registros reflexivos – ou diários de bordo – realizados cotidianamente, nos quais foram transcritos detalhes relativos ao desenvolvimento das aulas. Foi utilizado também, como fonte para a obtenção dos resultados, a gravação em áudio das discussões e rodas de conversa. A partir dos desdobramentos decorrentes das problematizações e da avaliação realizada ao final do ano letivo, identificamos nos alunos uma possível desconstrução das representações ou signos da cultura dominante, inicialmente presentes em seus discursos. Ao final, identificamos, a partir das problematizações e vivências, que alguns discursos estereotipados a respeito das lutas se desestabilizaram.

O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar o perfil dos professores de judô do Estado do Paraná. Essa pesquisa caracterizou-se como um estudo descritivo de cunho qualitativo. A amostra foi composta por 64 professores de judô do Estado do Paraná. O instrumento utilizado para coleta de dados foi um questionário semiestruturado, com questões abertas e fechadas. Para a análise dos dados foi utilizado a análise de conteúdo e a estatística descritiva (média, percentual e desvio padrão), além de tabelas para apresentação dos resultados. Os resultados apontaram que a maioria dos professores de judô são homens, graduados ou se graduando em educação física; todos têm um prolongado tempo de prática (28,48 anos) e o principal objetivo com o judô é formar cidadãos. Em conclusão, a prática pedagógica dos senseis do Paraná vem aos poucos se alterando e se aproximando de modelos pedagógicos da educação física contemporânea. Para esses professores, o judô ainda é uma prática educativa, disciplinadora e formadora de caráter. Esse discurso educativo é atualizado ao presente por meio de dispositivos pedagógicos e lúdicos no ensino do judô no Paraná.
