Published: January 2021

Arthropod-borne viruses (Arboviruses) continue to generate significant health and economic burdens for people living in endemic regions. Of these viruses, some of the most important (e.g., dengue, Zika, chikungunya, and yellow fever virus), are transmitted mainly by Aedes mosquitoes. Over the years, viral infection control has targeted vector population reduction and inhibition of arboviral replication and transmission. This control includes the vector control methods which are classified into chemical, environmental, and biological methods. Some of these control methods may be largely experimental (both field and laboratory investigations) or widely practised. Perceptively, one of the biological methods of vector control, in particular, Wolbachia-based control, shows a promising control strategy for eradicating Aedes-borne arboviruses. This can either be through the artificial introduction of Wolbachia, a naturally present bacterium that impedes viral growth in mosquitoes into heterologous Aedes aegypti mosquito vectors (vectors that are not natural hosts of Wolbachia) thereby limiting arboviral transmission or via Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, which naturally harbour Wolbachia infection. These strategies are potentially undermined by the tendency of mosquitoes to lose Wolbachia infection in unfavourable weather conditions (e.g., high temperature) and the inhibitory competitive dynamics among co-circulating Wolbachia strains. The main objective of this review was to critically appraise published articles on vector control strategies and specifically highlight the use of Wolbachia-based control to suppress vector population growth or disrupt viral transmission. We retrieved studies on the control strategies for arboviral transmissions via arthropod vectors and discussed the use of Wolbachia control strategies for eradicating arboviral diseases to identify literature gaps that will be instrumental in developing models to estimate the impact of these control strategies and, in essence, the use of different Wolbachia strains and features.

Published: January 2021

In the context of climate change, the impact of hydro-meteorological extremes, such as floods and droughts, has become one of the most severe issues for the governors of mega-cities. The main purpose of this study is to assess the spatiotemporal changes in extreme precipitation indices over Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, between the near (2021–2050) and intermediate (2051–2080) future periods with respect to the baseline period (1980–2009). The historical extreme indices were calculated through observed daily rainfall data at 11 selected meteorological stations across the study area. The future extreme indices were projected based on a stochastic weather generator, the Long Ashton Research Station Weather Generator (LARS-WG), which incorporates climate projections from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5 (CMIP5) ensemble. Eight extreme precipitation indices, such as the consecutive dry days (CDDs), consecutive wet days (CWDs), number of very heavy precipitation days (R20mm), number of extremely heavy precipitation days (R25mm), maximum 1 d precipitation amount (RX1day), maximum 5 d precipitation amount (RX5day), very wet days (R95p), and simple daily intensity index (SDII) were selected to evaluate the multi-model ensemble mean changes of extreme indices in terms of intensity, duration, and frequency. The statistical significance, stability, and averaged magnitude of trends in these changes, thereby, were computed by the Mann-Kendall statistical techniques and Sen’s estimator, and applied to each extreme index. The results indicated a general increasing trend in most extreme indices for the future periods. In comparison with the near future period (2021–2050), the extreme intensity and frequency indices in the intermediate future period (2051–2080) present more statistically significant trends and higher growing rates. Furthermore, an increase in most extreme indices mainly occurs in some parts of the central and southern regions, while a decrease in those indices is often projected in the north of the study area.
Coastal Aquifer Salinization in Semi-Arid Regions: The Case of Grombalia (Tunisia)
Authors: Kammoun Siwar , Trabelsi Rim , Re Viviana , Zouari Kamel
Published: January 2021

Groundwater resources are facing increasing pressure especially in semi-arid regions where they often represent the main freshwater resource to sustain human needs. Several aquifers in the Mediterranean basin suffer from salinization and quality degradation. This study provides an assessment of Grombalia coastal aquifer (Tunisia) based on multidisciplinary approach that combines chemical and isotopic (δ2H, δ18O, 3H, 14C and δ13C) methods to characterize the relation between groundwater quality variation and aquifer recharge. The results indicate that total dissolved solids exceed 1000 mg/L in the most of samples excepting the recharge area. In addition to water–rock interaction, evaporation and nitrate pollution contributing to groundwater mineralization, the reverse cation exchange process constitute an important mechanism controlling groundwater mineralization with enhancing risk of saltwater intrusion. Environmental isotope tracers reveal that groundwater is evolving within an open system to close system. A significant component of recent water that is recharging Grombalia aquifer system is confirmed by applying correction models based on the δ13C values and 14C activities and tritium contents. However, this recharge, which is mainly associated to the return flow of irrigation water, contributes to the groundwater salinization, especially for the shallow aquifer.
Effects of Soil Water Deficit at Different Growth Stages on Maize Growth, Yield, and Water Use Efficiency under Alternate Partial Root-Zone Irrigation

Published: January 2021

To investigate the effects of alternate partial root-zone irrigation (APRI) and water deficit at different growth stages on maize growth, physiological characteristics, the grain yield, and the water use efficiency (WUE), a pot experiment was conducted under a mobile automatic rain shelter. There were two irrigation methods, i.e., conventional irrigation (CI) and APRI; two irrigation levels, i.e., mild deficit irrigation (W1, 55%~70% FC, where FC is the field capacity) and serious deficit irrigation (W2, 40%~55% FC); and two deficit stages, i.e., the seedling (S) and milking stage (M). Sufficient irrigation (W0: 70%~85% FC) was applied throughout the growing season of maize as the control treatment (CK). The results indicated that APRI and CI decreased the total water consumption (ET) by 34.7% and 23.8% compared to CK, respectively. In comparison to CK, APRI and CI increased the yield-based water use efficiency (WUEY) by 41% and 7.7%, respectively. APRI increased the irrigation water efficiency (IWUE) and biomass-based water use efficiency (WUEB) by 8.8% and 25.5% compared to CK, respectively. Additionally, ASW1 had a similar grain yield to CK and the largest harvest index (HI). However, the chlorophyll and carotenoid contents were significantly reduced by 13.7% and 23.1% under CI, and by 11.3% and 20.3% under APRI, compared to CK, respectively. Deficit irrigation at the milking stage produced a longer tip length, resulting in a lower grain yield. Based on the entropy weight method and the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) method, multi-objective optimization was obtained when mild deficit irrigation (55%~70% FC) occurred at the seedling stage under APRI.

Authors: Li Yong , Wu Hao , Xu Xing , Sun Xiaodong , Zhao Jindong
Published: January 2021

Permanent magnet traction motor has the advantages of high efficiency, high power density, high torque density and quick dynamic response, which has been widely used in the traction field of electric vehicle. The high-performance control of permanent magnet traction motor depends on accurate rotor position information, which is usually obtained by using mechanical position sensors such as hall sensor, encoder and rotary transformer. However, the traditional mechanical sensor has the disadvantages of high cost, large volume and poor anti-interference ability, which limits the application of permanent magnet motor. The sensorless control technology is an effective way to solve the above-mentioned problem. Firstly, the sensorless control techniques of permanent magnet motor are classified. The sensorless control techniques of permanent magnet motor for rotor initial position, zero-low speed range, medium-high speed range and full speed range are deeply described and compared. Finally, the development trend of sensorless control technology of permanent magnet traction motor is prospected.
Les obstacles à l’effectivité du droit à l’alimentation en Inde
Authors: Dufresne Jessica
Published: January 2021

L’Inde se distingue des autres pays par la réponse particulière qu’elle a apportée à la question de la protection du droit à l’alimentation, sous l’impulsion de sa Cour suprême et des revendications de plusieurs acteurs de la société civile. Dans un jugement de 2001, la Cour Suprême indienne a en effet reconnu, à travers le droit à la vie, une valeur constitutionnelle à ce droit, qui n’avait jusque-là que la valeur d’un principe moral. Pourtant, la consécration de la justiciabilité de ce droit, c’est-à-dire la possibilité de le faire valoir devant un tribunal, est ternie par de nombreux obstacles qui découlent des discriminations bien ancrées au sein de la société indienne, tout comme des pratiques et choix gouvernementaux, peu conciliables avec la mise en oeuvre des programmes d’aides alimentaires élaborés en conformité avec les ordonnances de la Cour suprême.
Le co-emploi à l’épreuve du droit comparé
Authors: Pagnerre Yannick
Published: January 2021

Comment identifier l’employeur en cas de mise à disposition de salariés et de groupes de sociétés intégrées ? En droit français, la notion de co-emploi suscite de vifs échanges ; elle serait une exception française. Or, à l’étranger, une même émulation se ressent : les pays de tradition civiliste reconnaissent la pluralité d’employeurs ; au sein des pays de common law, l’Angleterre la refuse alors qu’elle se déploie aux USA et au Canada.
Les paradoxes de la théorie de l’acte clair en droit civil et de la parol evidence rule en common law
Authors: Caron Vincent
Published: January 2021

Une conception du langage basée sur la notion de «clarté » et tentant de faire l’économie de l’interprétation dans tout acte de communication porte en elle les germes de grandes complications juridiques. En effet, de la notion de «clarté » , émerge la théorie de l’acte clair en droit civil et celle de la parol evidence rule dans les juridictions de common law. Ces deux «théories » , bien que différentes, se heurtent tôt ou tard à des difficultés pratiques en raison du caractère fallacieux de ce critère de distinction. Alors que ces embûches sont similaires d’un système juridique à l’autre, l’attention portée à ces problèmes diffèrent grandement d’un pays à l’autre (Québec, France, Royaume-Uni et États-Unis). En fait, l’adhésion ou le rejet de ces théories s’explique avant tout par la conception personnelle du contrat et de la Justice de l’interprète.
Tensions entre « droit au débat public » et « droit au référencement ». Regard d’outre-Atlantique
Authors: Post Robert
Published: January 2021

In 2014, the Court of Justice of the European Union identified the right to be forgotten in its monumental case Google Spain SL c. Agencia Española de Protección de Datos. This right appears conceptually confused and legally undesirable. Conceptually confused because it combines the right to privacy with the right to data protection even though they are based on opposite principles. Legally undesirable because this new right is set in opposition to the freedom of expression, which is essential to democracies. By allowing data subjects to remove links to web pages containing information about them, the Court misunderstands the relationship between search engines and the constitution of the contemporary public sphere. This article asks how freedom of expression may be reconciled with the conception of personal data at the root of Article 8 of the Charter of the European union. It answers that this work should be done by the right to privacy.
La révolution russe de 1917 et la naissance du droit soviétique. A l'occasion du centenaire de la Révolution russe de 1917
Authors: Guyot Daniel
Published: January 2021

Le système juridique soviétique dont les grands principes se mettent en place à partir de la révolution d’octobre 1917, était-il le produit pur et prévisible de la seule idéologie marxiste-léniniste, ou n’était-il pas, au moins en partie, l’héritier d’une longue tradition et de la mentalité juridique russes ? Quels ont été les aspects révolutionnaires, avant-gardistes de ce droit d’un type nouveau ? Quels en ont été les vices initiaux ? Peut-on du reste parler d’un véritable système de droit, ou ne faut-il voir dans le droit soviétique qu’un instrument au service d’un pouvoir totalitaire ? Malgré les évolutions, les changements d’orientation et parfois, les revirements de la politique soviétique, les premiers textes du droit soviétique comportent des principes qui, pour le meilleur ou pour le pire, ont marqué de façon stable et durable un système social qui a duré plus de soixante-dix ans, et qui a sombré très rapidement avec la disparition de l’URSS en 1991, aussi rapidement qu’il s’était mis en place en 1917, « presqu’en un instant », ainsi que l’observait avec justesse l’écrivain et philosophe Alexandre Zinoviev.
La coopération comme norme fondamentale de la nouvelle procédure civile brésilienne
Authors: Mitidiero Daniel Francisco
Published: January 2021

Cet article vise à conceptualiser la collaboration comme un modèle et comme un principe, tout en démontrant comment son adoption en tant que norme fondamentale du nouveau Code de procédure civile brésilien (CPC de 2015) influence toute la conception de la procédure commune. En tant que modèle, la collaboration présuppose le juge étatique comme moyen de tutelle des droits des personnes, la nature argumentative de l’interprétation du droit et l’exigence que tous les participants de la procédure agissent de bonne foi de façon à permettre au juge d’orienter l’action vers la vérité. Comme principe, elle exige la poursuite d’une décision juste, efficace et rendue en temps opportun pour les parties, en accordant au juge, afin d’atteindre un tel objectif, les fonctions dites coopératives de clarification, de dialogue, d’assistance et de prévention pendant la conduite de la procédure.

Quantitative or qualitative defect in the synthesis of enamel is termed as enamel hypoplasia, clinically seen as depressions or grooves on the surface due to layer reduction. Pathognomonic features include symmetric manner and ring like defects. Early detection of theses lesions would prevent further breakdown in enamel and thus providing better outcome in terms of esthetics and function. The complexity of the treatment procedures to be reduced before the lesions multiply and attain severity, thereby reducing the morbidity associated with the disease. In this scientific article, we highlight a clinical condition of enamel hypopaisa in relation to left maxillary central incisor 21 in a 9 year old female. The condition was managed in conservative manner of tooth colored restoraion thereby restoring esthetics and function.

Published: January 2021

Biomass can be considered one of the most important sources of energy in the world, because it is: renewable; neutral in terms of green-house gases emissions; capable of replacing conventional fossil fuels, among other factors. On the other hand, gasification is an efficient process of turning available the chemical energy of biomass, with a relatively simple technology. In the present work a co-current open top downdraft gasifier is used, with an 8.5 kW thermal power capacity to fuel an 18 Hp Otto cycle engine coupled to an electric generator. With this apparatus, it was possible to analyze the influence of some properties of the fuel wood particles (size, density, moisture content and so on) on the efficiency of the energy conversion process.
Ether Dynamics and Unification of Gravitational and Electromagnetic forces
Authors: Wang Ling Jun
Published: January 2021

Recently we have presented a theory of unification of gravitational and electromagnetic fields based on the generalization of Newton’s law to include a dynamic term similar to the Lorentz force of electrodynamics[1]. The unification is convincing. The generalization based on similarity of Newton’s law and Coulomb’s law, however, is speculative although reasonable and compelling. In this article, we have presented a derivation of the dynamic term of gravitation based on our newly proposed ether dynamics, which removes the speculative nature of dynamic term and perfects the unification theory. It turns out that the gravitational interaction is transmitted through the space medium ether. An object in ether is in direct contact with the ether, causing it to move like a highly viscous and incompressible fluid. The movement of ether propagates thorough space like a continuous medium, exerting a force on any object in ether.
A New Paradigm in the Physics of Hadrons and their Interactions
Authors: Guido G.
Published: January 2021

Here, we report a summary of some works already published. We highlight the existence of a new paradigm in physics of hadrons, based on the idea that quarks, and hadrons are geometric structures of coupled quantum oscillators. The geometric form is “Aurea” (golden), and, so, the representative model is called Aurum Geometric Model (AGM). To realize these structures, the quantum oscillators must be to structure at sub-oscillators, and half-quanta (IQO). To a structure-particle, we associate a structure equation, and, by, an appropriate mathematic procedure, we find the values of hadronic masses, like quarks, mesons, and nucleons.
First Consistent Determination of the Basic Reproduction Number for the First Covid-19 Wave in 71 Countries from the SIR-Epidemics Model with a Constant Ratio of Recovery to Infection Rate
Authors: Schlickeiser R. , Kröger M.
Published: January 2021

The box-shaped serial interval distribution and the analytical solution of the Susceptible Infectious-Recovered (SIR)-epidemics model with a constant time-independent ratio of the recovery (μ0) to infection rate (a0) are used to calculate the effective reproduction factor and the basic reproduction number R0. The latter depends on the positively valued net infection number x = 13.5(a0 − μ0) as R0(x) = x(1 − e−x)−1 which for all values of x is greater unity. This dependence differs from the simple relation R0 = a0/μ0. With the earlier determination of the values of k and a0 of the Covid-19 pandemic waves in 71 countries the net infection rates and the basic reproduction numbers for these countries are calculated.
Bi-Directional Infinity Box
Authors: Hooda Jayant
Published: January 2021

The following article introduces a new concept of Bi-directional Box. The concept is explained by simultaneously calculating a new result: sum of all the natural multiples of each natural number up to infinity. The concept of Bi-directional Box helps to organise multiple infinite series and study different patterns in multiple infinite series. This Bi-directional box can be converted into a triangle by rearranging the already organised terms of the initial box. Similar to Pascal’s triangle, this box has many patterns and properties instilled in it too. Along with the initial standard box, infinite such boxes can be made depending upon the sequence/series in which the pattern is to be observed: an example with different sequences is provided at the end of the article.

CORRELATION BETWEEN THE LYMPHOCYTE-MONOCYTE RATIO AND CYTOKINES IN CHRONIC INFLAMMATION IN RATS TREATED WITH ALLOGENEIC MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS
Authors: Petryk Nataliia , Shevchenko Oleksandr
Published: January 2021

The chronic inflammatory process is a pathological condition characterized by an ongoing active inflammatory response and tissue destruction. Many studies show that chronic inflammation can play a severe role in various age-related diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular, and autoimmune diseases. One of the important but poorly studied factors affecting the regulation of chronic inflammation is the regulatory activity of MSCs. In this regard, the study of mesenchymal stem cells preventing chronic inflammation in the experiment is an important area of modern pathology.
On the one hand, increased cytokines, such as α-TNF, IL 6, and CRP, are reliable tools in diagnostic different inflammatory processes, especially chronic inflammation. On the other hand, nowadays, we need a more straightforward and not so expensive criterion for this purpose, for instance, a common total blood count and LMR. For the first time, we investigated how trustworthy can be LMR and how possible to use it in chronic inflammation in rats to achieve prognostic goals. 
This study investigated the correlation between α-TNF, IL-6, and CRP with LMR in rats' plasma in groups with chronic carrageenan inflammation and chronic inflammation with local injection of MSCs into the affected area. The study involved 132 adult male rats (180-220g), which were divided into groups. The inflammation model was chronic aseptic myositis caused by an intramuscular injection of 10mg λ-carrageenan (Sigma-Aldrich GmbH). Our experimental groups of rats were treated with MSCs (the injection into the inflamed site) in the amount of 1-2 million cells once. Blood sampling was performed from 6 hours to 28 days. We calculated our results using Statistica (data analysis software) version 13. For comparison, we used one-way ANOVA, Turkey's post hoc test, where p <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
 In our experiment, the correlation between levels of α-TNF, IL-6, and CRP with lymphocyte-monocyte ratio in rats was described for the first time, demonstrating the suppression of chronic inflammation through MSCs.

In this paper the control of oscillations in the two-rotor vibration unit is studied. It is assumed that the velocity of the oscillation of the platform cannot be accurately measured. The time-varying observer is proposed to restore it. In order to guarantee stability of the frequency and amplitude of oscillations of the vibrating parts of a two-rotor vibration unit special control algorithms based on speed-gradient methodology. Simulation results confirm stability of the synchronous rotation modes of the unbalanced rotors of the vibration unit.
Geoffrey Chaucer, The Merchant’s Tale and the Dialectic of Elevation
Authors: Fruoco Jonathan
Published: January 2021

Geoffrey Chaucer pose dans The Canterbury Tales un regard unique sur l’évolution de la poésie anglaise durant le Moyen Âge. L’alternance de genres et de styles poétiques différents lui permet de refléter tout le potentiel de la littérature par le biais d’un réagencement des images, symboles et conventions qui la définissent. Néanmoins, ce qui fait la force de Chaucer dans The Canterbury Tales, est sa capacité à développer un dialogue entre les différents récits constituant l’œuvre, ainsi que sa facilité à renverser nos attentes en extrayant son public d’un roman de chevalerie pour le propulser dans l’univers carnavalesque du fabliau, comme c’est le cas dans The Merchant’s Tale. En jouant avec l’imaginaire de l’arbre et du fruit, Chaucer nous prive dans ce conte de toute élévation et fait de son poirier un arbre inversé.
Experiencing the Other: Intersubjectivity, Alterity and Artistic Installation
Authors: Métais Fabrice
Published: January 2021

L’installation est généralement appréhendée comme un dispositif qui prescrit au public une expérience. Cette contribution souligne les enjeux phénoménologiques et éthiques qui traversent l’idée de pourvoir prescrire à l’autre son expérience. Après avoir situé la démarche dans le paysage des interactions entre phénoménologie et art, l’étude propose quatre étapes de dialogue, entre phénoménologie (et sciences cognitives), d’une part, et œuvres d’art, d’autre part, à travers lesquelles différentes perspectives sur la question de l’expérience de l’autre seront articulées. À l’issue de ce parcours, il apparaîtra que, parmi les outils qui nous servent à analyser l’expérience esthétique, le schème classique de l’intersubjectivité et de l’empathie, et l’a priori d’universalité qui le sous-tend, doivent nécessairement être complétés par des approches qui ne réduiraient pas la singularité et l’altérité de l’autre personne, et qui permettraient ainsi de mieux saisir la dimension proprement sociale et éthique de certaines expériences esthétiques contemporaines.
Approaching Carl Andre’s Sculpture with Regard to a Phenomenology of Space and Place
Authors: Dussuchalle Jérôme
Published: January 2021

Il s’agira d’aborder dans cette contribution l’œuvre de Carl Andre en tant qu’arrangement de pièces combinatoires, selon des ensembles minimaux qui se parcourent, dont l’expérience et littéralement la compréhension ne peuvent se faire qu’à partir du déplacement physique du visiteur. Un déplacement qui prend son impulsion à partir du sol, départ de la sculpture mais aussi plan selon lequel la plus existentielle des dimensions se donne, condition fondatrice de l’habiter humain. Si l’installation a souvent été considérée comme une extension des pratiques de l’assemblage et du collage, c’est-à-dire en fonctionnant selon des principes d’association, de contamination et de télescopage, le travail de Carl Andre pose de manière très radicale et rigoureuse les conditions mêmes qui rendent possible toute installation : la mise en tension sans cesse renouvelée d’une proximité et d’un lointain qui fonde l’horizon d’un spectateur toujours dessaisi de ce qui ad-vient (l’évènement de son dasein, « être-là »), l’avènement de la corporéité en tant que mouvement, des prises sensori-motrices sans cesse reconduites et indexées sur la perception des objets qui occupent l’espace et le redistribuent, enfin la nature éminemment trajective de cette catégorie d’œuvre que l’on tente de définir par le terme d’installation. Les environnements sculpturaux proposés par l’artiste américain donnent lieu, ils instituent l’espace et l’ouvrent, ils sont autant de places à investir.
Motherhood between Tradition and Modernity: Transmission and Transgression of the Gender Identities in the Family Interactions
Authors: Tomc Sandra , Bailly Sophie
Published: January 2021

Cet article examine comment, par leur discours, les femmes se construisent comme mère, dans leurs interactions avec leurs enfants adolescent-e-s, occasionnellement avec leurs maris, contribuant ainsi à la reproduction sociale des stéréotypes de masculinité et de féminité ou, au contraire, de quelle façon elles rompent avec la tradition et proposent des modèles alternatifs. Acceptent-elles ou non leur héritage symbolique en matière de genre ? En voulant la reproduire, comment réinvestissent-elles la dimension genrée dans un contexte d’interactions verbales avec leurs adolescent-e-s, les renvoyant ou pas à leurs « origines » culturelles ? Les mères dépassent-elles le modèle de binarité des sexes traditionnel pour parvenir à un modèle agentif ? À travers le continuum de normativité et d’agentivité, l’entre-deux prend tout son sens : en quoi l’imaginaire linguistique constitue-t-il un espace à construire, un « à travers » ?
Fertility of the In-Between
Authors: Sibony Daniel
Published: January 2021

L’auteur donne un bref survol de la notion d’entre-deux comme dynamique où émergent, se croisent et évoluent les interactions entre deux pôles différents ou opposés. Cette dynamique va à l’encontre du clivage, si fréquent dans les discours et les pensées quand on a peur d’intégrer deux termes antinomiques, ne voyant pas que l’entre-deux offre un tiers ou une ligne de fuite pour échapper au blocage. L’auteur montre que cette dynamique a porté et fécondé l’ensemble de son œuvre.
The Mythic Poetics of Philippe Walter
Authors: Solares Blanca , Martin Andréa Rando
Published: January 2021

En replaçant les travaux de Philippe Walter dans les cadres historique et théorique des analyses bachelardiennes et durandiennes sur l’imaginaire, Blanca Solares met en évidence les apports spécifiques de ses thèses, tant du point de vue méthodologique que du point de vue idéologique. Cette entreprise de reconstruction des présupposés conceptuels de Philippe Walter permet de souligner l’importance d’une réévaluation en profondeur d’un imaginaire médiéval trop souvent compris à l’aune d’une conception simplificatrice de la christianisation, tout en montrant la nécessité d’une approche nuancée et renouvelée des sources traditionnelles.

Published: January 2021

Cet article s’inscrit dans le prolongement d’une recherche que je mène depuis une vingtaine d’années sur les rapports entre cinéma et pensée. En m’appuyant en particulier sur les réflexions de Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Edgar Morin, j’ai ainsi pu créer les concepts de « complexité esthétique », « noosphère filmique », « cinématographie des flux ». Suite à l’évocation de créateurs-penseurs du cinéma muet d’avant-garde (Epstein, Dulac, Artaud), sont ici abordés des films d’Amos Gitaï, Chris Marker, Jean-Luc Godard, Alain Resnais et Andreï Tarkovski. L’intitulé, « Les métaphores filmiques du cerveau » indique que l’approche de la relation cinéma-cerveau est d’ordre philosophique, mais également d’ordre poétique. Si le cinéma est à même de donner forme à la pensée, il invente aussi des circuits cérébraux — sonores et visuels — qui lui permettent de devenir forme « pensante ».

The paper focuses on the peculiarities of literary translation of the texts where the story is told by an unreliable narrator. This relatively new way of narration has not been properly considered yet, as well as the criteria of an unreliable narrator and the translation strategy that should be chosen while translating such fiction. The paper discusses the features of this literary device, its functions and the ways of its linguistic representation.

The paper is based on the novel “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time” by M. Haddon and its translation into Russian made by A. Kukley in 2003. The comparative analysis of the source and target texts focuses on the stylistic peculiarities of the novel and the language personality of the unreliable narrator. The paper reveals the following challenges that a translator can deal with: the formation of a speech profile of the narrator, the translation of colloquial vocabulary and the translation of realia. Each example that includes an extract from the original book and its translation shows the features of the narrator’s speech profile; these features can have an impact on the translation and thus, should be taken into consideration throughout the whole process of translating. The analysis touches upon the examples representing inadequate translation, and for this reason, an alternative variant, the most relevant one and conveying the idea of the author of the original book is provided. The authors make a conclusion about the best translation strategy to be used while dealing with literary texts told by an unreliable narrator.
DOCUMENTARY FROM TRANSLATION PERSPECTIVE (BASED ON THE TRANSLATION OF THE DOCUMENTARY “A LIFE IN JAPAN”)
Authors: Zlobina O. N. , Vorozhtsov G. Yu.
Published: January 2021

The article discusses one of the problems of audiovisual translation – translation of documentary films, taking “A Life in Japan” by a Swedish director Petri Storlopare as an example. The choice of the film was determined by the presence of difficult situations from the point of view of translation, as well as by the lack of Russian translation. The paper considers typical characteristics of an operational interview which is an important constituent of the film under study. Special attention is given to the problem of synphase in voice-over translation. The topic is relevant as there are no fundamental theoretical papers devoted to translation of documentaries, both in domestic and foreign translation studies.

The main goal was to consider the existing algorithms and strategies of audiovisual translation and to find the most optimal ways of translating the definite documentary film. We employed the following methods of analyzing the data: comparative analysis, lexicographic analysis, contextual analysis and communicative analysis. The conducted research allows to define the main problems of translating documentaries, they include transmitting the meaning of realia of another country’s culture and solving the “phase shift” problem when syncing the text in voice-over translation. In this paper we tried to account for our own translation solutions. The research has shown that it is possible to achieve adequacy of translation by using compression, a certain set of transformations and techniques for transferring the meaning of culturally marked lexical units.
CONTEMPORARY SOCIAL ADVERTISING: TRANSLATION PROBLEMS (BASED ON ECO ADVERTISING)

Published: January 2021

In our days advertising discourse presents an actively studied field. Eco advertising has recently become very popular as it draws attention to many serious and urgent problems which influence the society on the whole and each individual in particular. At the time of intensive development of science and technology, frequent technological disasters the role of eco advertising as a constituent of general social advertising is constantly growing. The main goal of social eco advertising is to call attention to acute environmental problems. Its primary objective is to influence people’s outlook, change their attitude to nature, the animal world, and involve them into solving the existing problems. As this kind of advertising concerns all the inhabitants of the Earth and is of international importance, the study of the problems of its adequate translation is very challenging. The present paper discusses the dominating communicative strategies employed in eco advertising and those linguistic means of their realization which present some difficulties for translation. The following methods of analyzing the data were employed: linguostylistic analysis, cognitive analysis, lexicographic analysis, contextual analysis and comparative analysis. The conducted research makes it possible to conclude that the strategy of emotional impact is most frequently employed. This strategy is implemented with the help of various stylistic devices: metaphors, epithets, parallel constructions, antitheses, etc. Adequate translation of the listed expressive means poses the main problems for translators.
On the spatial development strategy of the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District

Published: January 2021

В статье рассматриваются вопросы стратегии развития регионов Дальневосточного федерального округа с позиции государственных программ и пространственного фактора. Поднимаются проблемы актуализации Стратегии социально-экономического развития Дальнего Востока и Байкальского региона на период до 2025 года и подготовки Национальной программы развития Дальнего Востока до 2035 года. В развитии этих программ в качестве объекта анализа, планирования и управления рассматривается механизм выделения территориальных социально-экономических систем. Ставится вопрос о необходимости развития территории во взаимосвязи «производства–образования–науки–инновации/науки–бизнеса–государства». В настоящее время в регионе имеются отдельные элементы этой системы, но отсутствуют работающие механизмы их взаимодействия на различных уровнях. Подчеркивается важнейшая роль науки и образования как компонентов развития инновационной территориальной системы. Используются методы сравнительного, статистического и контент-анализа.

The article deals with the development strategy of the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District from the perspective of the state programs and spatial factor. The problems of updating the Strategy of socio-economic development of the Far East and the Baikal region for the period up to 2025 and preparing the National program for the development of the Far East until 2035 are raised. In the development of programs, the mechanism of allocation of territorial socio-economic systems is considered as an object of analysis, planning and management. The question is raised about the need for regional development of the territory in the interrelation of “production-education-science-innovation/science-business-state”. Attention is drawn to the most important components of the development of the innovative territorial system – science and education. Methods of comparative, statistical, and content analysis are used.
Types of coasts and hazard geomorphic processes on the Russkii and Shkota islands coasts (Peter the Great Bay, the Sea of Japan)
Authors: Лебедев И.И. , Невский В.Н.
Published: January 2021

Предметом исследования являются опасные геоморфологические процессы на берегах островов Русский и Шкота (залив Петра Великого, Японское море). Цель работы – крупномасштабное картографирование морфогенетических типов берегов и качественная оценка потенциальной опасности проявления этих процессов. В результате крупномасштабного картографирования на острове Русский выделено 4 морфогенетических типа и 9 подтипов берегов, на острове Шкота – 4 типа и 8 подтипов. Картографическая легенда отражает степень переработки берегов волноприбойными процессами. Основными руководящими признаками выделения категорий являются морфология берегового уступа, а также морфология пляжа и размерность слагающего его материала. Наиболее опасными для населения и инженерных сооружений являются абразионные берега с обрывистым береговым уступом и узким, преимущественно валунным пляжем (например, восточные побережья обоих островов). Опасность в данном случае понимается как высокая вероятность трех геоморфологических событий – обвалов, оползней и быстрого подтопления пляжей и прилегающих территорий в результате штормового нагона и цунами. Степень опасности геоморфологических процессов в береговой зоне следует учитывать при проведении функционального зонирования территории этих островов в целях градостроительного проектирования.

The subject of the research is dangerous geomorphic processes on the shores of the Russkii and Shkota islands (Peter the Great Bay, the Sea of Japan). The purpose of this work is large-scale mapping of morphogenetic types of coasts and the qualitative estimate of the potential hazard of these processes. As a result of large-scale mapping, four morphogenetic types and 12 subtypes of coasts were identified on Russkii Island, and four types and eight subtypes on Shkota Island. The cartographic legend reflects the degree of coast transformation by marine processes. The main guiding signs for identifying categories are the morphology of the cliff (coast scarp), the morphology of the beach, and the dimension of its material. It was concluded that the abrasion shores with a steep (precipitous) coastal cliff and a narrow, mainly boulder beach (for example, the eastern coasts of the both islands) were most dangerous for the population and engineering buildings. The danger in this case is understood as the high probability of three geomorphic events – rockfalls, landslides, and rapid flooding of beaches and adjacent territories as a result of a storm surge and tsunami. For functional zoning of these islands we must take into account the degree of danger of geomorphic processes in the coastal zone.
