DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) extraction method is the process of separating DNA from the sample. In this process, the DNA obtained must be protected from contamination by RNA, carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Contamination of RNA, carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins can increase DNA purity. DNA purity was measured using a NanoDrop 2000 spectrophotometer measured by the absorbance ratio at 260 nm and 280 nm wavelengths. Good quality DNA will have an A260/A280 ratio of 1.7–2.0 and a concentration > 0.03 pg. This study aimed to obtain the appropriate DNA extraction method for fresh meat samples (a mixture of rat and chicken meat). This research consisted of two stages: the DNA extraction stage using the Progenus EasyFast™ Extraction Kit for Meat Products and the amplification stage using the EASYFAST™ Rat Detection Kit. This study used 16 samples of a mixture of rat meat and chicken with concentrations of rat meat: 5, 10, 15, and 20%. At the extraction stage, the incubation time was optimized for 15, 30, 45 minutes, and 1 hour. The results showed that the one hour incubation had a sigmoid curve in the results of PCR amplification.

Aim of the study: The paper presents the results of testing the compressive strength, frost resistance and shear strength of stabilized fine-grained soil depending on the added hydraulic binder and the time and method of curing. Material and methods: The tests were performed for a coarse silt collected in Boczkowice (Małopolskie Voivodship). The stabilizer used in the tests was Terramix F22.5, added in the amount of 3, 5 and 8% in relation to the dry mass of skeleton. The tests were carried out on samples immediately after stabilization, after 7 and 28 days of treatment with water and after 7 and 28 days with freezing and thawing cycles, as well as for samples without the addition of a stabilizer. Results and conclusions: On the basis of the conducted tests, it was found that the binder content used as well as the length and method of sample curing influence the improvement of geotechnical parameters. Both the compressive and shear strength of the tested soil samples depend on the method of sample care, as well as the value of the binder addition. The method of sample curing had the greatest influence on the compressive strength of the soil. Protecting the stabilized soil against water causes a significant increase in compressive strength, the enhance of compressive strength of the samples was up to 40%. The shear strength, and thus the values of the angle of internal friction and the cohesion of coarse silt, were significantly affected by content of the stabilizer. The both parameters increased with the increase of the binder addition.

Aim of the study: The development of land relations in Ukraine on the way to European integration requires the identification of all interested parties involved in the management of land resources and nature use. Since all existing directions of land use, as one of the main components of natural resources, can have an impact on the current state of the environment, land management is considered as a component of general environmental management. Material and methods: The identification of stakeholders can be carried out in the following stages: analysis of the interests of interested parties in land management and environmental management; analysis of powers and interests of subjects of land management; analysis of rights and responsibilities of stakeholders in matters of sustainable land use and environmental protection. Based on the generally accepted understanding of the concept of stakeholders, they include not only those natural and legal persons who have a basic interest in land use issues, but also those whose activities can potentially affect the process of land and environmental management itself and its results for society. Results and conclusions: Six main groups of stakeholders have been identified, which in our opinion have the greatest interest and influence on land and environmental management, have the greatest interest and leverage in Ukraine, namely Executive Authorities, Local Self-Government Bodies, Land Owners, Land Users, Investors, Non-Governmental Organizations and Population. The stakeholders included in each of the main groups are defined, their powers, legal rights are outlined, and the main manifestations of the economic, environmental and social interests of these groups of stakeholders are defined.

Aim of the study: Rising and falling atmospheric pressure usually heralds changes in weather conditions such as temperature, air humidity, cloud cover, precipitation, and wind speed. The work presents variation in atmospheric pressure in Siedlce from 2001 to 2022. The objective of the present work is to analyse the diurnal variation in atmospheric pressure, as well as the amplitude of fluctuations and trends. Material and methods: Daily atmospheric pressure values were obtained from a meteorological station of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMGW). Diurnal changes in atmospheric pressure causing different levels of strain on the human body, ranging from weak to very strong, were identified. For each month, the number of days with specific diurnal pressure changes was calculated. The trend in monthly pressure changes was determined based on linear regression equations. Results and conclusions: The average annual atmospheric pressure at sea level in Siedlce was 1016 hPa, the lowest and highest recorded pressure values being, respectively, 928 hPa on 25th March, 2016, and 1051 hPa on 23rd January 2006. The difference between the highest and lowest pressure values in a given month was the greatest in January and February (40 hPa), it being the lowest in August (17 hPa). The summer months of July and August, classified as weak stimulus days, exhibited the greatest diurnal variation in atmospheric pressure, while December and January were very strong stimulus days, showed the highest variation. Monthly atmospheric pressure values in Siedlce displayed no substantial tendency for changes during the study period.

Published: October 2023

Analisar e discutir os saberes docentes curriculares e institucionais que constituem a formação de professores/as de Danças de Salão (DS) de Juiz de Fora - MG, graduados/as em Educação Física (EF), é o objetivo deste estudo. Configura-se como uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa estruturada através da correlação de fontes bibliográficas, documentais e empíricas.  Teoricamente, dialogamos com autores/as do campo da formação de professores/as, em especial, Maurice Tardif (2014), além de referenciais específicos do campo da Dança e DS. O material empírico foi construído a partir de conversações com 04 professores de DS, graduados em EF, atantes em Juiz de Fora – MG, ademais de uma quinta professora, autora do estudo, que também compartilhou suas experiências formativas em DS. De acordo com as narrativas dos sujeitos, inferimos que a graduação em EF deixa uma lacuna formativa com relação às DS, visto que não é integrada como uma disciplina específica e nem contemplada como um conteúdo na disciplina de Dança. Por outro lado, a graduação em EF corroborou tanto no processo de construção de uma identidade profissional dos sujeitos da pesquisa como no seu processo formativo. Por fim, a opção pela graduação em EF se deu devido a impossibilidade de parte dos sujeitos cursarem a faculdade de Dança, constituindo-se, para o grupo investigado, do caminho mais viável para obtenção de reconhecimento profissional para atuar com as DS.

Authors: Ihfadaniati Cita , Herdian Herdian , Nur’aeni Nur’aeni , Arnis Grafiyana Gisella
Published: October 2023

Academic cheating is an action individuals take to achieve success in ways that are not right. Academic cheating is often done, ranging from basic educational institutions to universities or students. Educators must have morals to reduce the actions of Academic Cheating that often occurs at the education level. Guilt and Shame Proneness determines unethical behavior, such as whether academic cheating will occur. This study aims to determine the effect of Guilt and Shame Proneness on Academic Cheating in students of primary school teacher education study programs. The current study assessed academic dishonesty among college students in primary school teacher education programs. Two hundred and eight participants self-reported cheating behavior and completed the Guilt and Shame Proneness Scale. The regression test results for the influence of Guilt and Shame Proneness on Academic Cheating obtained a probability value of sig. (p) = 0.000 (p<0.05) so that the hypothesis is accepted: Guilt and Shame Proneness significantly influence Academic Cheating. R-square value = 0, 075 means that Academic Cheating effectively contributes 7.5% to guilt. The importance of moral inculcation in student-teacher candidates must be considered to prevent unethical behavior
Effect of the use of retardant chemical additive in concrete on rebar corrosion
Authors: Dündar Behçet , Resuloğullari Emriye Cinar , Karci Turhan Can
Published: October 2023

Reinforced concrete (RC) is one of the most widely used building materials. However, RC, especially in coastal seaside or humid environments, can suffer reinforcement corrosion with the result that the reinforcement fails to perform its function over time. The effect of a retarder additive used to eliminate loss of consistency in hot, windy and humid weather on the corrosion of RC elements was investigated in this work. Four different concrete types were assessed, with 0%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% additions of the chemical additive. Along with accelerated corrosion and pressure tests, physical properties such as electrical resistivity, water absorption, porosity, unit weight and capillary water absorption were also determined. The results of this work indicate that the use of up to 2% of the setting retarder did not pose a problem in terms of the physical and mechanical properties of the concrete. However, in terms of the frequently encountered corrosion problem, the use of 1.5% is more appropriate. Many chemical additives are used for different purposes in concrete and it is suggested that, alongside physical and mechanical properties, durability characteristics should also be examined when determining the suitable ratios of these additives.
Power production from wave-induced oscillations of a submerged plate
Authors: Chen Yongbo , Hayatdavoodi Masoud , Zhao Binbin , Ertekin R. Cengiz
Published: October 2023

This paper investigates power production from a submerged wave energy device in shallow water. The energy device consists of a fully submerged, horizontal plate, which is restricted to vertical motions only. The plate undergoes vertical oscillations due to the wave-induced loads. Oscillations of the submerged plate are converted into electricity by use of a direct-drive power take-off (PTO) system. The plate oscillations are controlled by use of a spring and the damping effect of the PTO. Interaction of non-linear shallow-water waves with the submerged plate is studied by coupling the Green–Naghdi equations for the fluid motion with the equation of the vertical motion of the horizontal plate. Particular attention is given to the power production from the oscillations of the plate through the direct-drive PTO system, and its impact on the overall performance of the device under various wave conditions. Optimised configuration of the PTO for a given wave–plate condition is achieved by performing a parametric study over a range of involved variables. It is found that the proposed wave energy device with a direct-drive PTO has very good energy production efficiency and that it is a suitable concept for power production from the ocean waves.
Influence on construction waste of the lean–building information modelling interaction
Authors: Karatas Ibrahim , Budak Abdulkadir
Published: October 2023

This study aims to determine which types of waste that occur during the construction phase are influenced and reduced by lean principles and building information modelling (BIM) functions. A survey study was conducted and analysed with multiple correspondence analysis. It was seen that waiting, overprocessing and overproduction wastes are reduced by lean principles. It was determined that the visualisation features of lean principles and BIM functions reduce inventory and defect production wastes. It was figured out that BIM functions reduce unnecessary transportation waste by using technologies. It is hoped that the findings of this study will help construction managers quickly determine which lean principles and/or BIM functions to be used at the construction site to reduce waste more effectively.
Novel procedure for measuring the saturation of the pore-pressure system in piezocone tips
Authors: Rocchi I. , Marcolongo M. , Tonni L. , Gottardi G.
Published: October 2023

Uncertainty in the measurement of the cone penetration test with pore-water pressure measurement (i.e. piezocone testing CPTU) can be caused by an equipment malfunction, poor calibration and maintenance of sensors, but also by a lack of saturation of the piezocone. The standards allow for many different options in terms of filters, saturation fluids and methodologies. The novel device described herein aims at measuring in a very simple manner the degree of saturation of the piezocone prior to testing. Because the quality of pore-water pressure measurements can currently only be assessed a posteriori – that is, after the test has been completed, or at best while testing, the methodology proposed herein has the potential to provide quality benchmarks for CPTU. The tool measures a parameter inspired by the well-established Skempton coefficient B, which is routinely used to estimate the sample saturation prior to laboratory testing. Furthermore, by performing the same measurement after a CPTU test, it is possible to assess whether saturation was lost during cone penetration. The paper describes a set of preliminary results that show a clear correlation between the saturation degree of filters and/or of the overall pore-pressure measurement system and the B parameter proposed, thus providing a proof of concept in laboratory settings.
UKRAINIAN LITERARY EDITIONS OF THE MID-19TH CENTURY: ALMANACS AND «THICK» MAGAZINES IN THE HISTORY OF THE FORMATION OF UKRAINOPHILISM
Authors:   Perm State University, Rachev E. R.
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the literary publications of the Ukrainophiles, who made attempts to gain a foothold in the Russian printed space in the middle of the 19th century. At that time, there was an activation of the proto-national movement, which sang the Little Russian identity in the heterogeneous southwestern region of the Russian Empire. Ukrainian publications have evolved from literary collections and extended almanacs to the first thick magazine “Osnova”, which captures certain stages in the formation of Ukrainophilism. The article pays attention to the idea of creating a new model of Little Russian journal, which the Ukrainian ethnographer P.A. Kulish tried to implement. However, this idea had to be shelved due to the negative consequences of the exposure of the Cyril and Methodius Society. The Kharkov Romantic School appeared in literary collections as a local manifestation of provincial ethnography, an elegiac curiosity of the local intellectual elite. The capital magazine “Osnova” appeared a decade and a half later thanks to the efforts of a new galaxy of Ukrainian actors who were ahead of their time, formulated a position and presented it to the expert community. During the publication, the authors of the bilingual “Osnova” encountered a number of difficulties that predetermined the short life of the publication. Despite the accusations of national separatism, the Ukrainophiles raised the problem of teaching peoples in their native language, spread Hromadov's practices and achieved indirect recognition of the literary status of the Little Russian language, which in total makes it possible to identify Ukrainophilism of the early 1860s as a national movement. The use of Hrokh’s typology of nationalisms helps to more accurately identify the stage of development of the Little Russian national idea.

Published: October 2023

The study deals with the historical content of the memorial laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, its dependence on the specifics of the political history of the territories of Russian regions. A qualitative analysis of the initial data made it possible to identify some trends in the purposeful reflection of regional historical features in the laws, such as emphasizing the uniqueness of the contribution to the development of Russian statehood; the inclusion of events that occurred before the territory of the modern region became part of the Russian state; interpretation of the nature of the inclusion of the territories of national republics into Russia. To conduct a comparative quantitative study, original tools were developed – the index of the specifics of political history (the values of regional indicators vary from ≥ 0 to ≤ 9) and the index of the historical content of memorial laws (the values of regional indicators vary from ≥ 0 to ≤ 8). Correlation analysis revealed a statistical relationship between the specifics of political history and the historical content of the regional “laws of memory” – it turned out to be positive and significant. At the same time, the study confirmed that in the practice of commemoration of historical events, not everything is determined by history itself. The repertoire of the actualized past, which found expression in laws, in each case was formed as a result of the interaction of regional ruling elites with professional historians and social activists. The development of tools for a comparative analysis of scenarios for the interaction of mnemonic actors in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and the quantitative measurement of factors influencing historical policy in terms of the adoption of regional memorial laws is the task of a new study.

Published: October 2023

The article analyzes child mortality in Perm in the 18th century. The data of sex and age definitions of the skeletal remains obtained during excavations of the Peter and Paul Necropolis in 2021, as well as data from the church metric books of the Peter and Paul Cathedral (1792–1796) and some statistical data, were used. At the Peter and Paul necropolis, formed near the Peter and Paul Church, the first citizen of Perm were buried. This is especially relevant in the year of the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the city. Results were obtained on high child mortality – about 70% of the total group. The maximum mortality is recorded in infancy (up to 1 year), it also accounts for 70% of all children. Interestingly, the mortality rate of infancy in lacteous period (from 28 days to 1 year) is significantly higher than in newborns (natus, from birth to 28 days). The causes of child mortality could be different: infectious, gastrointestinal, colds, congenital anomalies, etc. When comparing data on mortality and fertility, it turned out that the born generation lost half of its representatives. The consequence of this is a low natural increase in the population of Perm, even with a high fertility of the population. High child mortality (especially in infancy) was characteristic of pre-industrial society. In Perm province, it has remained consistently high for several centuries, which provides important historical information about the socio-economic development of the country and the region, as well as the sanitary and hygienic condition of the population and the level of the development of medicine.
THE OFFICER’S SKAZKA OF THE RUSSIAN SCOT
Authors:   Institute of Russian History,Russian Academy of Sciences, Stankov K. N.
Published: October 2023

In this paper, an attempt is made to publicize an important historical source from the Russian State Military Historical Archive. This document is an officer’s “skazka” of the Scottish brigadier of the Russian army James Gordon. In the Russian army, the officer’s “skazka” was the main document containing information about the staff of the commanders before using the questionnaire. This document is of special importance because it reports about a remarkable person. James Gordon was the son of Tsar Peter I’s friend – General Patrick Gordon. James was an experienced officer and took part in many battles. After a short military service in Russia, he boosted his military career in England, where he served in the Guard of the king James II Stuart. After the “Glorious Revolution” of 1688–1689, when James II was overthrown, James Gordon took part in the Jacobite movement. During the First Jacobite rebellion, J. Gordon participated in many battles on land and sea, including the famous battle of Killiecrankie, where he was badly wounded. After his return to Russia, he participated in the Azov Campaigns and in the Great Northern War. The Swedes took James captive twice. Besides that, J. Gordon was the first person born in Russia to become a Count of the Holy Roman Empire and a knight of the Order of Malta. The aim of this publication is to attract attention to this person and to the problem of the Scots’ service in the Russian army.
REGIONAL VERSIONS OF THE SOVIET NARRATIVE: ON THE PROBLEM OF PUBLISHING ARCHIVAL MATERIALS
Authors:   Dostoevsky Omsk State University, Krikh S. B.
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the analysis of two editions of the correspondence between medievalists M.Y. Syuzyumov (1893–1982) and V.T. Sirotenko (1915–2006). The first of them was predominantly a Byzantine scholar, the second studied the period of transition from antiquity to the Middle Ages in Europe; Syuzyumov actually acted as a consultant for Sirotenko writing his doctoral thesis. The publication of 25 letters was made in 2021 in two versions: in the monograph by A. Wenger and in the article by K.R. Kapsalykova; both versions are independent of each other and differ from each other in dozens of more or less significant details. The article shows that such a difference is explained by: technical errors; different principles of publishing archival materials and individual decisions made by publishers who had to deal with typos, inaccuracies and author's punctuation of the participants in the correspondence. Further, the author demonstrates what details in the correspondence did not get attention from the publishers, which reduced the scientific value of the publication. The correspondence can serve as good evidence of the state of affairs in the provincial scholarship in the late Soviet period, showing the formation of regional versions of the Soviet historical narrative. Recently, the publication of archival sources on the history of Soviet science has acquired a large scale. Therefore, we have the right to raise the question of the quality of publications, which includes both the technical side of the matter and the problems of commenting on the published material. Accordingly, the quality of a source is determined not only by its content, but also by the extent to which the publisher manages to show its meaning in a wider context; when this context is incomprehensible to the publisher himself, then the source will remain “closed” to most readers.

Published: October 2023

As a result of the capture of the American embassy by supporters of the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah R. Khomeini, the U.S. lost the chances for a quick restoration of its positions in the Middle East. The events unfolding in Tehran demanded a serious and balanced response from the adminis-tration of John Carter. Under these conditions, the American government and its analytical structures began to look for tools to influence and put pressure on the Islamic regime. One of the potential levers of American policy could be the Kurdish issue, which was again openly put on the agenda after the Islamic revolution of 1978–1979. The potential of the Iranian Kurds in terms of countering the Khomeini regime, their controlla-bility and the conformity of their struggle with U.S. interests have become the subject of analytical work of the state services. The article examines the place and role of the Kurdish question in the search for U.S. res-ponses to the challenges of the Iranian crisis caused by the capture of the U.S. embassy in November 1979. Based on a wide range of documents from the U.S. National Archives, the John Carter Presidential Library, the State Department, the Central Intelligence Agency and the Council of National U.S. security, the author traces the course of developing a policy towards Iran and a position regarding the national movement of Ira-nian Kurds. The context of regional policy and the influence of the Afghan issue on the Iranian course of Washington are also traced. As a result of the development of decisions, the line of Secretary of State S. Vance prevailed, demanding to refrain from active aggressive actions against Iran, to ignore the Kurdish movement. The entry of Soviet troops into Afghanistan also had an impact, turning the entire political situa-tion in the Middle East upside down.

Son yıllarda yapay zekâ teknikleri kullanılarak geliştirilen siber saldırılar sızdıkları sistemin kullanıcı davranışlarını öğrenerek sisteme başarılı bir şekilde entegre olabilmekte ve bu sayede geleneksel güvenlik yazılımları tarafından tespit edilememektedir. Çeşidi ve sayısı hızla artan bu tür siber saldırılar anomali tabanlı Saldırı Tespit Sistemleri (STS) tarafından tespit edilebilmektedir. Ancak bu tür STS’lerin performansları yeterli olmadığı için STS’lerin performanslarının iyileştirilmesi ile ilgili yapılan araştırmaların önemi de artmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, anomali tabanlı saldırı tespit modellerinin tespit hızını ve doğruluğunu arttırmak için dört aşamalı bir metodoloji önerilmiştir. Bu metodoloji kapsamında kullanılan NSL-KDD veri setine ilk önce ön işlem uygulanmadan, daha sonra sırasıyla kategorik veri kodlama, ölçeklendirme, hibrit öznitelik seçimi ön işlemleri ayrı ayrı ve birlikte uygulanarak farklı veri setleri elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veri setleri ve K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP), Random Forest (RF), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM) makine öğrenimi algoritmaları kullanılarak çok sayıda saldırı tespit modeli oluşturulmuştur. Son olarak en başarılı sonuçların elde edildiği modellerde hiper-parametre optimizasyonu yapılarak modellerin performansları iyileştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonunda eğitim veri seti üzerinde 0,373 s sürede %96,1 saldırı tespit başarısına, test veri seti üzerinde ise 0,005 s sürede %100 saldırı tespit başarısına ulaşılmıştır.

Araç rotalama problemi, merkezi bir depodan farklı koordinatlarda yer alan müşterilere belirli kapasiteye sahip araçlarla yapılacak dağıtım için en kısa dağıtım rotasının belirlendiği bütünleşik bir optimizasyon problemidir. Artan çevresel duyarlılık ve problemin gerçek hayata daha uygun hale getirilmesi için zaman, eş zamanlı toplama ve dağıtım, rota uzunluğu, çoklu depo, teslimat bölme, yakıt tüketimi ve karbon emisyonu gibi kısıtlar probleme eklenerek yeni varyantlar ortaya konmuştur. Bu çalışmada, çevresel duyarlılığın ön plana çıktığı yeşil araç rotalama problemi, zaman pencereli ve eş zamanlı topla dağıt araç rotalama problemleri bütünleşik olarak ele alınmaktadır. Bu noktada, toplama ve dağıtım talepleri, siparişlerin teslim zamanları ve dağıtım esnasında sürdürülebilirliğin sağlanabilmesi için çevresel faktörler de önemli bir etken olarak göz önüne alınmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında Yeşil Zaman Pencereli ve Eş Zamanlı Topla Dağıt Araç Rotalama Problemi (YZPETDARP) için yeni karma tamsayılı doğrusal olmayan matematiksel model oluşturulmuş, belirli şartlar altında model doğrusallaştırılarak farklı yöntemler ile çözüm aranmıştır. YZPETPARP’nin çözümü için metasezgisel arama algoritmaları olan Genetik Algoritma (GA) ve Ağırlıklı Süperpozisyon Çekim Algoritması (ASÇA) önerilmiş, literatürdeki ilgili veriler entegre edilerek test verileri oluşturulmuştur. Deneysel çalışmalar sonucunda çözüm uygunluk değeri ve çözüm süresi bakımından GA ile daha iyi sonuçlara ulaşılmış, or-opt sezgiseli ile entegre edilen ASÇA ise GA ile elde edilen sonuçlara yakın ve tatmin edici sonuçlar vermiştir.

İçten yanmalı motorlarda silindir içi yanmanın modellenmesi hala karmaşık bir konudur. Benzin veya dizel gibi geleneksel yakıtların dışındaki yakıtların performansını, yanma rejimlerini ve emisyon davranışını doğru bir şekilde tahmin etmek için daha fazla geliştirme çalışmalarına ihtiyaç vardır. Bu çalışmada, 0/1-boyutlu AVL Boost programı kullanılarak sayısal modeli doğrulamak için tam yükte dizel yanma rejimindeki deneysel veriler kullanılmıştır. Doğrulama çalışmaları sırasında Vibe 2-Zone yanma modeli kullanılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda performans ve emisyon değerleri incelendiğinde % 94’e yakın uyum olduğu görülmüştür. Dizel yanma rejiminde sayısal doğrulama yapıldıktan sonra, emme portuna propan enjeksiyonu için enjektör ilavesi ile sistemin reaktivite kontrollü sıkıştırma ateşlemeli (RCCI) motora dönüştürülmesi sağlanmıştır. Sonrasında toplam yakıt kütlesi sabit tutularak farklı propan oranlarının kullanımının ve farklı yanma başlangıç zamanının RCCI bir motorda performans, yanma karakteristiği ve emisyon değerlerine etkileri incelenmiştir. Sonuç olarak %90 propan ve %10 dizel yakıt kullanımı ile performansta %11 iyileşme sağlanırken, emisyon değerleri için de katalitik egzoz ekipmanlarının kullanımına gerek kalmadığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca performans ve emisyon değerleri için en iyi yanma başlangıç zamanının üst ölü noktadan -6 °KA sonra olduğu saptanmıştır.

Ticari araçlarda şasiye kauçuk geometriye sahip askı (merkez rulman) adı verilen parça ile bağlanan kardan mili sistemi motor momentini arka tekerlere iletir. Kardan mili içerisindeki kardan mafsalının sahip olduğu kinematik sorunlar nedeniyle oluşan eksenel kuvvetler ses ve titreşim problemlerine neden olmaktadır. Buna karşın askı grubunun modellenmesi kauçuk geometrinin doğası gereği hem kritik hem de zorlayıcıdır. Araştırmacılar kauçuk geometrinin modellenmesinde doğru eleman türünün ve eleman katsayısının tayini için iterasyonlarla ilerleyen bir geliştirme yöntemi kullanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada model geliştirilmesi sırasında zaman ve maliyet yönünden kazanım elde etmek için Python programlama dili ile bir algoritma geliştirilmiş ve deneysel veri ile doğrulanmıştır. Bu algoritma ile askı içerisindeki kauçuk geometri daha gerçekçi modelleyebilecek ve model farklı alanlarda ihtiyaç duyulan başka kauçuk geometriye sahip bağlantı parçalarında da kullanılabilecektir. Bu sayede tasarım doğrulama çalışmaları sırasında kullanılan araç testlerinin sayısının azaltılabilmesi hedeflenmektedir.

Duygu, insanın ruh halinde içsel ve çevresindeki etkilerle etkileşiminden doğan fiziksel değişimlerdir. Bireyler duygularını, beden dilinin yanı sıra sesli iletişim vasıtalarıyla da diğer bireylere aktarabilirler. Özellikle beden dilinin yetersiz olduğu durum ve zamanlarda bireyler için sesli iletişim önem kazanmaktadır. Çalışmamızda da Türkçe ses kayıtlarını içeren veri seti üzerinde Pyhton programlama dili aracılığıyla öncelikle verilerin duygu etiketlerinin tespiti yapılmış olup, sonrasında literatür çalışmalarında en çok kullanılan beş makine öğrenim algoritmasıyla analizler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analizler hem Rapid Miner hem de Pyhton programlama dili aracılığıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmada, Pyhton programlama dili aracılığıyla yapılan analizlerde hem CountVectorizer hem de TF-IDF vektörizasyon yöntemleri, Rapid Miner ile yapılan analizlerde TF-IDF vektörizasyon yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Sonuç kısmında ise Pyhton programlama dilinde en iyi doğruluk oranını %70 oranla Naive Bayes makine öğrenim algoritması CountVectorizer yöntemiyle elde etmiştir. Rapid Miner’da ise en iyi doğruluk oranını %69,60 oranla Support Vector Machine makine öğrenim algoritması elde etmiştir. Çalışmamızla beraber ortaya yeni bir Türkçe duygu veri seti çıkmıştır. Çalışmamız ayrıca Türkçe ses kayıtlarından elde edilen verilerin BERT modeli ile duygu tespiti yapılan özgün bir çalışmadır

Background: Epigenetic modifications, including chromatin accessibility, nucleosome positioning, and DNA methylation (5mC), are pivotal in shaping genome function. However, current short read sequencing approaches present challenges in characterising epigenetic patterns along repetitive genomic regions. Results: We developed Simultaneous Accessibility and DNA Methylation Sequencing (SAM-seq), a robust method utilising bacterial adenine methyltransferases (m6A-MTases) to mark accessible regions in purified plant nuclei. Coupled with Oxford Nanopore Technology sequencing, SAM-seq enables high-resolution profiling of cytosine methylation and m6A-tagged chromatin accessibility along individual chromatin fibres in A. thaliana and maize. Importantly, using naked genomic DNA we uncovered significant sequence preferences of m6A-MTases, which we show must be taken into account in order to obtain reliable accessibility profiles, particularly for the analysis of highly repetitive sequences such as centromeric repeats. Using this method we found intriguing antagonism between accessibility and DNA methylation within single molecules, somatic epigenetic variation at bivalent chromatin domains, periodicity of nucleosomal strings over centromeric repeats, and high-resolution methylation profiles over nucleosomes. Conclusions: Our study highlights the importance of considering intrinsic substrate preferences of DNA modifying enzymes for their use in chromatin profiling. Hence, SAM-seq is a robust and cross-species method to chart high-resolution accessibility and DNA methylation genome-wide. This method and findings will enable the investigation of chromatin-based regulation across plant species, with implications for the study of non-model plant species with limited genomic and epigenomic information.

Authors: Chen Yun
Published: October 2023

Carbon Neutrality goals and Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs), as new requirements for global development at this stage, have raised higher requirements for achieving the coordination of economic efficiency and ecological development of transportation infrastructure, especially highways. To promote the achievement of Carbon neutrality goals and SDGs,this research intends to investigate the carbon unlocking efficiency of highways. In this paper, we take China as an example, use the data of 18 listed highway companies and their provinces from 2010-2021to conduct the study, measure the static carbon unlocking efficiency by using the super-efficiency SBM model with undesirable outputs, combine with the Malmquist index model for the decomposition of the efficiency and the dynamic analysis, and use the Tobit regression model to analyze the factors affecting the carbon unlocking efficiency of the highway. The results show that (1)From a static perspective, the highway carbon unlocking efficiency shows a steady upward trend, and the highway carbon unlocking efficiency has been in a state of low efficiency in general, with obvious regional differences. (2)From a dynamic perspective, highway carbon unlocking efficiency changes are relatively flat, highway carbon unlocking efficiency change index is in the rising stage, relying on technical efficiency can effectively improve the level of carbon unlocking efficiency. (3)The regional economic level, industrial structure, and urbanization level have a significant positive correlation with carbon unlocking efficiency, while the level of scientific and technological development and the level of opening up have a negative effect.
