Product Design in the Desert Common: Methods and Practice
Authors:   University of Utah, Tsoutsounakis Elpitha
Published: July 2023

Approximately 13% of the land area of the United States is protected in some way by formal designations through state or federal government. Each designation implicates specific forms of management and interaction with ecological systems and community members. Current strategies rely on a complex network of NGO’s, government bodies, and Sovereign Tribes, often with disparate or contrasting needs, values, and desires. This paper will discuss a platform in design education that finds common ground for these groups to collaborate through design research and practices. Design methodologies organize and mediate this complexity and foster free exchange of ideas, knowledge, and values. The platform is unique in that it moves beyond traditional science partnerships, and seeks to mediate the divide between academic and community scholarship. This paper will discuss methods of the studio for commoning design in public lands.
EQUITABLE RENEWAL: Reclamation + Repair
Authors:   Roger Williams University, Adams Edgar
Published: July 2023

Reparations are one crucial means of acknowledging the irreparable harm done to BIPOC populations since the colonization of this country. Providence Rhode Island is one of several cities that have begun the difficult process of confronting the impacts of spatial injustice. By focusing on the Urban Renewal programs of the 50’s and 60’s, reparations programs offer an opportunity to examine the role of the planning and architecture professions in blindly perpetuating the racist policies that, coupled with discriminatory real estate and lending practices, are responsible for our current landscape of inequality. Without a clearer accounting for the lasting impacts of racism, stark disparities in outcomes will only persist. This realization, and the murder of George Floyd, prompted Providence Mayor Jorge Elorza to commit to a comprehensive Truth Telling and Reconciliation process in July of 2020 that led to the establishment of a Municipal Reparations Commission the following year.1 Working alongside this process, our urban design studio investigated two sites of past trauma. Students were asked to confront one transgressive act with another by intervening in the work of an acclaimed architect culpable in the erasure of Providence’s largest Black neighborhood. Our second site called for mending the embattled community that became home to those who were displaced. The students had access to a wide range of historical and contemporary narratives from the truth telling and reconciliation process and had regular engagement with leaders of this process.2 Our two sites represent related, but starkly different, conditions that allowed us to examine a range of social and spatial injustices and expose students to the various ways that BIPOC communities continue to be prevented from participating in the wealth and community building opportunities that are available to white families. By using design as research, we were also able to document what was lost and explore place-based strategies of repair and community-centered renewal to help shape the form of the remedies sought by the Reparations Commission.
WIP: Work in Progress | Women in Practice
Authors:   City College of New York, Harkema Lindsay
Published: July 2023

What happens when independent women designers form a collective practice rooted in co-creation rather than singular authorship? How could feminist values inform and inspire a shared design approach? Which professional conventions should be unlearned in order to foster more mutually supportive spatial practices? The history of feminist practice in architecture offers more than a century of women-led collective initiatives. But their marginalization has prevented feminist values from being normalized in the profession and the built environment at large. Still today, women-led collaborative practices are considered novel. WIP: Work In Progress | Women In Practice is feminist design collective composed of two entities: a supportive community of women design professionals and a collaborative practice shared between individual members. WIP is a work in progress, subject to adaptation by and for its participants. Within the shared practice, WIP Collaborative, team structure and work methods are adjusted to the needs of specific projects, including scope, community and stakeholders, and the interests of WIP members involved. To date WIP has completed a range of projects and events in the public realm that foreground embodied experiences, equity, access, and inclusivity, including public space installations, community focused design research, and collective happenings. Learning from other feminist practices and workers cooperatives past and present, WIP Collaborative is democratically organized so that all participants contribute to its trajectory and creative process. WIP’s projects reimagine public environments by challenging, expanding, and transforming their norms. They explore issues of embodiment – physical, sensory, and emotional experiences of the body – and create environments of choice that support the spatial and experiential preferences of a diverse population. By embracing a plurality of human needs and a co-creative design approach, WIP operates outside the norms of conventional design practice in pursuit of a more vibrant shared future.
The Pipeline to Better Placemaking: Using Digital Realities to Observe, Teach, & Engage in the creation of Place
Authors:   University Of Central Florida, James Herbert , Wilhelm Isabella ,   University Of Central Florida, Johnson Matthew ,   University Of Central Florida
Published: July 2023

Quality “Places or Commons” are evaluated by their number of occupants, who is coming there, how long they are staying, and, most importantly, how often they return. Whether the Centre Pompidou in Paris, France, or Mainstreet USA, our places represent who we are as a community. While one could evaluate success by gathering financial numbers from surrounding businesses, they would fall short of the “why” people are there. Immersing your investigation around the “why” a person returns to a place and stays beyond a single reason will start to tell the story of the Place. Place = People + Built Environment. The Community will come, only if you create with “them” at the start of conceptualization. Using the community as a collective owner in the design process, both directly and through human behavior observations, leads to a design for a regenerative and redistributive commons-based economy or a Community’s Place. We have created the Pipeline to Better Placemaking. A six-stage platform using digital realities to Observe, Teach, & Engage in the creation of Place. The innovation or uniqueness of this pipeline is in the interactive collection of local knowledge. We are measuring both the built environment and human behavior. Our team has been collaborating with the university psychology department on how to observe human behavior, the computer science department to program multiple prototypes from the ground up, the planning department to better understand zoning laws, and finally, the architecture department to observe the built environment and conceptualize community focused places.
Environmental Justice: A Case Study into the Heat Vulnerable Neighborhoods of Philadelphia
Authors:   Thomas Jefferson University, May Elizabeth , Du Peng ,   Thomas Jefferson University, Martine Victoria ,   Thomas Jefferson University
Published: July 2023

Studies have shown that low-income communities and communities of color are more likely to live in neighborhoods experiencing multiple environmental burdens and disproportionate vulnerability to the impacts of climate change in American cities. The practice of redlining in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania has caused environmental injustice in ways that might not have been obvious at that time however there are neighborhoods that are still affected by this practice. These areas have the lowest median household incomes, lowest life expectancies, and highest population of African American people compared to the rest of the city. The main objective of this research is to map the heat vulnerable neighborhoods in Philadelphia and suggest ways to mitigate urban heat island. Mapping heat vulnerability shows the areas that are more susceptible to the exacerbating effects of heat. The research began with mapping factors that determine vulnerability, such as heat exposure, access to green space/tree coverage, median household income, life expectancy, and race. Mapping these indicators allowed the vulnerable neighborhoods to be pinpointed. The most vulnerable neighborhoods chosen were Tioga and Carroll Park. To conduct a better analysis the least vulnerable neighborhood, Chestnut Hill, was chosen to compare to. Further, overlaying the Homeowners Loan Corporation redlining map to find out that the “hazardous” neighborhoods overlap with the most vulnerable neighborhoods. To continue the analysis with simulations, Rhino and Grasshopper (Ladybug Tools) were used to quantify the urban heat island indicators such as Direct Sun Hours, Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) and Heat Stress Hours in both public spaces and streets. In summary, this research proposes design interventions, including strategies of adding greenery, to mitigate the urban heat island effect. The simulations showed that the neighborhoods that are the most heat vulnerable would have to drastically change their environment to mitigate the urban heat island.
The Architectural Typologies of Latinx Housing Precarity
Authors:   Mississippi State University, Lopez Barrera Silvina
Published: July 2023

Housing precarity in the Latinx community has been a persistent problem for decades in the United States. Trailer homes, mobile parks, barrack-like housing on farms, and substandard homes have influenced the experiences of generations of Latinx immigrants in the U.S. While these architectural forms may have been conceived as transient architecture, these housing typologies have become persistent through time and ignored from public debate. This paper explores the history of these precarious housing typologies and their role shaping Latinx spatial practices and lived spaces in rural America. Through spatial justice lenses this paper considers how precarious American housing typologies of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries have historically marginalized the Latinx community obscuring their presence. Using case studies from the 1942 Bracero Program to contemporary Latinx housing in rural Vermont and Mississippi, this paper examines the Latinx lived spaces and housing typologies from a historical perspective. Additionally, it explores the spatial implications and linkages between Latinx labor and housing. When their labor is conducted in remote rural areas and small towns, their presence is obscured often times living and working on the farms and putting up with substandard housing. Research methods include examination of architectural documentation such as historical and contemporary photographs and drawings and in-depth interviews with Latinx immigrants and advocates of the Latinx community. This paper provides an analysis of housing conditions and dwelling structures through history that have been overlooked by researchers and practitioners in architectural fields. Increasing barriers to access to adequate and affordable housing in the Latinx community are interconnected with their immigration status and their limited access to resources, resulting on access to a limited and deteriorating housing stock with unsafe and unhealthy conditions. Finally, this paper offers a deeper understanding on how the labor and immigration context has influenced housing patterns in small towns and rural places.
The Ordinary within the Extraordinary: The Ideology and Architectural Form of Boley, an “All-Black Town” in the Prairie
Authors:   Oklahoma State University, Macken Jared
Published: July 2023

In 1908, Booker T. Washington stepped off the Fort Smith and Western Railway train into the town of Boley, Oklahoma. Washington found a bustling main street home to over 2,500 African American citizens. He described this collective of individuals as unified around a common goal, “with the definite intention of getting a home and building up a community where they can, as they say, be ‘free.’” The main street was the physical manifestation of this idea, the center of the community. It was comprised of ordinary banks, store front shops, theaters, and social clubs, all of which connected to form a dynamic cosmopolitan street— an architectural collective form. Each building aligned with its neighbor creating a single linear street, a space where the culture of the town thrived. This public space became a symbol of the extraordinary lives and ideology of its citizens, who produced an intentional utopia in the middle of the prairie. Boley is one of more than fifty “All-Black Towns” that developed in “Indian Territory” before Oklahoma became a state. Despite their prominence, these towns’ potential and influence was suppressed when the territory became a state in 1907. State development was driven by lawmaker’s ambition to control the sovereign land of Native Americans and impose control over towns like Boley by enacting Jim Crow Laws legalizing segregation. This agenda manifests itself in the form and ideology of the state’s colonial towns. However, the story of the state’s history does not reflect the narrative of colonization. Instead, it is dominated by tales of sturdy “pioneers” realizing their role within the myth of manifest destiny. In contrast, Boley’s history is an alternative to this myth, a symbol of a radical ideology of freedom, and a form that reinforces this idea. Boley’s narrative begins to debunk the myth of manifest destiny and contrast with other colonial town forms. This paper explores the relationship between the architectural form of Boley’s main street and the town’s cultural significance, linking the founding community’s ideology to architectural spaces that transformed the ordinary street into a dynamic social space. The paper compares Boley’s unified linear main street, which emphasized its citizens and their freedom, with another town typology built around the same time: Perry’s centralized courthouse square that emphasized the seat of power that was colonizing Cherokee Nation land. Analysis of these slightly varied architectural forms and ideologies reorients the historical narrative of the state. As a result, these suppressed urban stories, in particular that of Boley’s, are able to make new contributions to architectural discourse on the city and also change the dominant narratives of American Expansion.
Collective Domestic: Theorizing the Intermediate Commons
Authors:   Tulane University, Ali S. Omar
Published: July 2023

This paper introduces research from a special topics seminar that explores the incorporation of collective intermediate space (also referred to as gray space and the intermediate commons), as a possible alternative to the isolated condition of most housing design arrangements in North America. Gray space is most easily understood as the transitional intermediate space prior to entering or after exiting a domestic space to the public domain. These spaces often blur the line between public and private space; inside and outside; formal and informal; are truly multi-functional and can be defined by the end user. One of the primary objectives of this course is to understand the historic and vernacular foundations of housing and architecture’s relationship to public space and the commons through its various conditions and to grasp how this relationship has changed across various contexts over time. This research aims to have the following impact. (1) To visually analyze and assess spatial challenges and opportunities within three vernacular types. This analysis evaluates the social and material qualities of space provided within the domestic type, and the clarity of its connection to the intermediate commons. (2) To examine the local context of these types and how architecture has had a role in cultivating the shared cultural identity and community of the place. (3) To expand upon the use of visual research and visual communication to tell a cohesive narrative of place. In short, the intermediate commons can be understood as spatial, architectural, and tactile, but must also be recognized as a space for social innovation and radical openness. Collective Domestic: Theorizing the Intermediate Commons asserts that the sequestered and heteronormative condition of current developer-driven housing trends can be countered through the proper activation of gray space in housing.

Published: July 2023

Renewable energy technologies are transforming our landscapes with distributed installations that have the potential to reshape the commons. HELIOStudio at Carnegie Mellon University speculated how solar technologies and the (re) emergence of distributed energy infrastructure will reshape the relationship between landscape, urban form, spatial practices, and organizational structures. What new rituals and practices might arise if the means of production and consumption were contained within a site, a neighborhood, or a city? HELIOStudio examined the urban structure of energy landscapes and the community structure of an energy commons to advance social, environmental, and economic justice. Grounded in urban theory and technical strictures, the studio engaged the nonprofit Land Art Generator Initiative (LAGI) and several other technical and community experts. The studio resulted in a replicable method for organizing energy landscapes, spatial proposals for an energy-informed commons, and implementation protocols that enable new organizational structures and shift the balance of power to communities and individuals. The paper will share three streams of HELIOstudio investigation: PERSONAL ENERGY, LOCAL ENERGY, and URBAN ENERGY. The human dimension of energy was analyzed in PERSONAL ENERGY, where lived experience and the invisible flows of energy technologies and policies were visualized. LOCAL ENERGY investigated how distributed solar technologies might inspire new urban practices and engagement with urban drosscapes, ranging from performative inventions to ritualized solar installations. Lastly, URBAN ENERGY’s design proposals and community engagement informed possibilities for industrial-scale production within the confines of the city and examined the technostructure of production and consumption. Together, the findings have informed designers, policymakers, and planners on the potential of new energy landscapes.

Implementation of complex perspective systems in the room decorations of the Ancient Roman villas, located in Naplesand dated around 80 B.C. – A.D. 200, illustrates how art historiography can inform a fundamental framework in newmedia. 360-degree stereovision-friendly application of spatial perspectives in the ancient rooms mediates a relationshipbetween physical and virtual by appealing to the notion ofsensorimotor contingency. The law-like relationship betweenactions that are in adaption with ever-changing sensory inputslands into realization by utilizing suspension of disbelief. Thisbiological phenomenon has been at the locus of interdisciplinaryinquiry, encompassing both archaeological findings inItaly and the immersive technologies of virtual reality.Media theorist Oliver Grau showcases a famous exampleof illusionary spaces in classical antiquity. He examines thetriclinium of the Villa of the Mysteries, Pompeii where theviewer is immersed in realistic figures in narration. This paperaims to shift the attention from figuration to pure illusionisticrepresentations of cityscapes in atrium 5, cubiculum 11,triclinium 14, and oecus 23 of the Villa A at Oplontis.

Oponiéndose a las ideas de Wernicke, que por una regla de Griesinger consideraba a la demencia senil como enfermedad generalizada, Arnold Pick, psiquiatra de Praga (1851-1924) publicó a partir de 1892 una serie de casos, con dicho estado mental que representaban, atrofias corticales circunscriptas y síntomas focales en todo comparable -relacionando el daño local y el difuso- a lo hallado por Lisseuer en la parálisis general progresiva. El primer enfermo con el cual demostró la vinculación de la atrofia cerebral y la afasia tenía 70 años y el deterioro progresivo reflejó sus claudicayciones en el lenguaje. La autopsia le permitió comprobar atrofia del lóbulo temporal izquierdo con ventrículos dilatados y al revisar la historia clínica encontró esta nota de Kraepelin: "Sin duda se trata de una enfermedad nueva".
ANALYSIS AND IMPROVEMENT OF SINGLE-PHASE FLOW FIELD INSIDE THE CRUSHING CHAMBER OF MACHINE FOR LENTINUS EDODES STIPE CRUSHING
Authors: LI Yang , LI Yanjun , LI Pei
Published: July 2023

In order to analyze the flow field inside the crushing chamber of machine for lentinus edodes stipe crushing and improve performance of the machine based on the results of the flow field analysis, this paper applied the computational fluid dynamics software FLUENT to numerically simulate the flow field inside the crushing chamber of the machine for lentinus edodes stipe crushing. Thus, the flow field characteristics and flow state inside the crushing chamber were intuitively displayed, and the visualization of the flow field in the crushing chamber was realized. Then, the wind speed value obtained by simulation was compared with the value measured by experiment, and the average relative error between them was less than 10%. Finally, according to the simulation results of flow field, the flow field generated by one air inlet and two air inlets was analyzed, and then the blade structure, outlet area parameters, and rotation speed parameters were compared, simulated and optimized. Results analysis: the pressure distribution and velocity distribution of the flow field inside the crushing chamber were obtained, and the optimal structure and parameters were two inlets, the rotation speed of 2000 r/min and the outlet area of 160×80 mm2, the crushing chamber with the new blade parameters and structure had greater turbulent kinetic energy and velocity gradient, which was more favorable to the discharge, and provided a basis for further optimization and improvement of the crushing machine.
Hitting functions for mixed partitions
Authors: Dzhalilov A.A. , Khomidov M.K.
Published: July 2023

Let $T_{\rho}$ be an irrational rotation on a unit circle $S^{1}\simeq [0,1)$. Consider the sequence $\{\mathcal{P}_{n}\}$ of increasing partitions on $S^{1}$. Define the hitting times $N_{n}(\mathcal{P}_n;x,y):= \inf\{j\geq 1\mid T^{j}_{\rho}(y)\in P_{n}(x)\}$, where $P_{n}(x)$ is an element of $\mathcal{P}_{n}$ containing $x$. D. Kim and B. Seo in [9] proved that the rescaled hitting times $K_n(\mathcal{Q}_n;x,y):= \frac{\log N_n(\mathcal{Q}_n;x,y)}{n}$ a.e. (with respect to the Lebesgue measure) converge to $\log2$, where the sequence of partitions $\{\mathcal{Q}_n\}$ is associated with chaotic map $f_{2}(x):=2x \bmod 1$. The map $f_{2}(x)$ has positive entropy $\log2$. A natural question is what if the sequence of partitions $\{\mathcal{P}_n\}$ is associated with a map with zero entropy. In present work we study the behavior of $K_n(\tau_n;x,y)$ with the sequence of mixed partitions $\{\tau_{n}\}$ such that $ \mathcal{P}_{n}\cap [0,\frac{1}{2}]$ is associated with map $f_{2}$ and $\mathcal{D}_{n}\cap [\frac{1}{2},1]$ is associated with irrational rotation $T_{\rho}$. It is proved that $K_n(\tau_n;x,y)$ a.e. converges to a piecewise constant function with two values. Also, it is shown that there are some irrational rotations that exhibit different behavior.
On one problem for a fourth-order mixed-type equation that degenerates inside and on the boundary of a domain
Authors: Urinov A.K. , Usmonov D.A.
Published: July 2023

In the article, a nonlocal boundary value problem has been investigated for a fourth-order mixed-type equation degenerating inside and on the boundary of a domain. Applying the method of separation of variables to the problem under study, the spectral problem for an ordinary differential equation is obtained. The Green function of the last problem is constructed, with the help of which it is equivalently reduced to the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind with a symmetric kernel, which implies the existence of eigenvalues and the system of eigenfunctions for the spectral problem. The theorem of expansion of a given function into a uniformly convergent series with respect to the system of eigenfunctions is proved. Using the found integral equation and Mercer's theorem, a uniform convergence of some bilinear series depending on the found eigenfunctions is proved. The order of the Fourier coefficients is established. The solution of the problem under study is written as the sum of the Fourier series with respect to the system of eigenfunctions of the spectral problem. An estimate for the problem's solution is obtained, from which its continuous dependence on the given functions follows.

Geleneksel yapılar, yapıldıkları dönemin kültürel, sosyal, ekonomik özellikleri ile yaşama biçimini yansıtarak bu niteliklerin günümüze kadar ulaşmasını sağlarlar. Yapılar çevrelerindeki tarihi dokuyla birlikte bir anlam ve bütünlük kazandıklarından koruma kavramı zamanla tek yapı ölçeğinden kentsel ölçeğe ulaşmıştır. Kentsel sit alanlarının özgünlüğünü kaybetmeden gelişime ve değişime cevap vermeye çalışırken tarihi bir belge olma özelliğini sürdürebilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu yüzden yasal, yönetsel, sosyal ve ekonomik bir koruma modeli olarak tanımlanan bütünleşik koruma ihtiyacını ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu bağlamda ülkemizde, kentsel sit alanlarının bütünleşik korunabilmesi için koruma amaçlı imar planları (KAİP) hazırlanmaktadır. Değişen dönüşen dinamik yapıdaki kentlere cevap vermekte zorlanan bu planlarda zamanla revizyonlar yapılabilmektedir. Revizyonlar sonrasında koruma stratejileri, parsel tasarımları, yoğunlukları, işlevleri ile yapılaşma şartları ve koruma aktörlerinin yetki ve sorumlulukları değişebilmektedir. Plan hükümlerindeki revizyon, sit alanı içerisindeki tadilat, tamirat, bakım gibi basit onarımlardan ziyade en belirgin olarak restorasyon, rekonstrüksiyon uygulamalarını kapsayan esaslı onarım ve yeni yapılanmayı içeren ruhsatlandırılmış müdahalelerde kendini göstermektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, KAİP revizyonlarının kentsel sit alanında yapılan ruhsatlandırılmış müdahalelerin türüne ve miktarına olan etkisini araştırmaktır. Bu amaçla, Odunpazarı kentsel sit alanında yapılan ruhsatlandırılmış yeni müdahaleler tespit edilerek, KAİP revizyonlarının bu müdahalelere etkisi ortaya koyulmuştur. Çalışma kapsamında yapılan değerlendirmede, 1988 yılına ait KAİP dönemi boyunca kentsel sit alanında toplam 20 adet yeni yapı ruhsatının bulunduğu, restorasyon ve rekonstrüksiyon uygulaması bulunmadığı, 1997 yılına ait KAİP dönemi boyunca 9 adet yeni yapı, 3 adet restorasyon ve 1 adet rekonstrüksiyon ruhsatı alındığı, 2011 yılı KAİP döneminde ise 35 adet yeni yapı, 9 adet restorasyon ve 5 adet rekonstrüksiyon ruhsatı alındığı görülmüştür. Çalışmanın sonucunda kentsel sit alanlarının değişime ve gelişmeye ayak uydurma çabasının sonucunda oluşan KAİP revizyonlarının tarihi dokudaki müdahalelerin türünü ve miktarını etkilediği tespit edilmiştir.

Synthesis and luminescence properties of Cr2O3-CaO-GeO2 glass and glass ceramics for broadband NIR-LEDs
Authors: Nanai Yasushi , Satake Yutaro , Kitazawa Nobuaki
Published: July 2023

We report the fabrication of novel 0.1Cr2O3-25CaO-75GeO2 glass and glass ceramics with wideband NIR luminescence and the annealing temperature dependence of the photoluminescence (PL) properties for applications as NIR phosphors. The anisotropic growth of Ca2Ge7O16 nanocrystals in the annealing samples was confirmed. Annealing-induced variations in the body colors and diffuse reflectance spectra suggest that change in the valence of Cr ions and their coordination environments. Broadband luminescence of 700–1300 nm attributed to the 4T2 → 4A2 transition of Cr3+ was observed for the as-made glass. The peak wavelength is shifted from 860 to 780 nm, and line-shaped 2E → 4A2 emission appears due to the crystallization of Ca2Ge7O16 by heat treatment. The PL quantum yield reaches the maximum at 0.19 when the sample is annealed at 775 °C, and the dependence on annealing temperature can be understood by the change in the PL lifetimes and diffuse reflectance spectra.
Adlayer formation in low-pressure chemical vapor deposited graphene and its exploitation for creating PUF surfaces
Authors: Lee Sangsun , Kim Dong Hwan , Kim Jiseon , Ye Jongpil
Published: July 2023

We investigate adlayer formation in low-pressure chemical vapor-deposited graphene and show that graphene can be grown to have adlayer morphologies that are useful for creating physical unclonable authentication tags with large encoding capacities. The number density and size of the adlayers significantly increase when graphene is grown on electrochemically reduced rough surfaces. They are widely varied by controlling the methane partial pressure, growth temperature, and surface oxidation states of the Cu foils. The uniformity and uniqueness of the optimally prepared 256-bit long authentication keys are extremely close to 0.5, affording an encoding capacity of 8.23 × 1062.

Keterlibatan masyarakat dalam sebuah kolaborasi publik adalah sebuah keharusan, begitu juga dalam kolaborasi pada Tim Pengendalian Inflasi Daerah (TPID) Kabupaten Cilacap yang sudah melibatkan masyarakat diwakili oleh Lembaga Swadaya Masyarakat. Namun demikian keterlibatan masyarakat dirasakan masih kurang dan dianggap masih perlu melibatkan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendekripsikan bentuk keterlibatan masyarakat dalam kolaborasi pengendalian inflasi dan kelompok masyarakat yang dilibatkan. Dengan menggunakan metdoe triangulasi (triangulation method) dan triangulasi sumber data (data source triangulation) diketahui bahwa bentuk keterlibatan masyarakat ada yang aktif dan pasif, kemudian kelompok masyarakat yang paling banyak dilibatkan adalah petani. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa pelibatan masyarakat dalam kolaborasi publik untuk mengendalikan inflasi adalah hal yang penting karena dapat mengoptimalkan capaian yang ingin dituju dari kolaborasi, dalam hal ini adalah terkendalinya inflasi. Tingkat keterlibatan masyarakat yang diinginkan dalam membuat keputusan (kebijakan) tergantung pada atribut masalah inti, beberapa masalah menuntut lebih banyak keterlibatan, yang lain menuntut lebih sedikit atau lebih banyak.

Introduction. The study of the ability of Bacillus anthracis strains with different phenotypic properties to spore germination, reproduction and sporulation on a medium based on an aqueous soil extract can help assess the significance of these processes in the formation and maintenance of soil anthrax foci.
Aim. The analysis of individual characteristics of the development of a vegetative culture of anthrax pathogen strains with different phenotypes in a soil medium model.
Materials and methods. On a group of anthrax microbe strains with different plasmid composition and virulence, the possibility of spore germination, reproduction of bacilli and, at least in some of them, productive spore formation on the soil medium was studied.
Results. Three variants of culture development of B. anthracis strains were identified: 1 spores remain intact, not germinating; 2 after germination of spores, bacilli are formed, which multiply with different intensity, passing into involutional forms without spore formation; 3 the passage of a complete physiological cycle "sporebacillusspore". The presence of 2% blood in the soil environment contributed to the germination of spores and reproduction of the culture, but inhibited the process of sporulation during the observation period of 3 days. No correlation was found between a certain phenotype of the studied strains of B. anthracis and the ability to germinate and vegetate on soil media.
Conclusion. The data obtained that only 17% of CFU gives rise to the formation of colonies on the soil medium suggest the heterogeneity of the properties of the population of the studied strains. Isolation of such cultures and their further detailed study will make it possible to identify the most significant complexes of biological properties for the realization of a complete physiological cycle under soil-simulating conditions.

The purpose of this review is to analyze scientific data on the adjuvant properties of substances of various origin and chemical nature (adjuvants) published in recent decades and to evaluate the effectiveness of their use in the vaccination against various infections, including particularly dangerous ones.
The analysis of the literature data available in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, eLibrary databases, indicates that the search for new substances and drugs with the ability to enhance the immune response to antigens that are part of antibacterial and antiviral registered vaccines, as well as experimental preventive drugs, is an important and promising direction. The use of various substances and compounds as adjuvants enhances the immunogenic and protective properties of vaccines, reduces the antigenic load on the human body and causes a tense immune response in individuals with reduced functioning of immune system and in the elderly. When choosing an adjuvant, it is necessary to take into account the direction of its action on the formation of both local and systemic specific immune response, depending on the nature of the pathogen.

Introduction. Heterogeneous microbial populations exist in the nature due to exchange of genetic material containing in extrachromosomal and transposable elements. Structures controlling horizontal gene transfer may affect development of pathogen genetic variants.
The aim of the study is to analyze molecular genetic characteristics of CRISPR-loci in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis strains circulating in Russia and their association with pathogenicity factors.
Materials and methods. We studied 56 strains of Y. pseudotuberculosis isolated from different sources in Russia during 19352014 from various sources in different regions of Russian Federation and in other countries. DNA fragments with CRISPR-loci were isolated and amplified by PCR, and subjected to Sanger sequencing. PCR was used to determine chromosomal genes of superantigen ypmA/C, pathogenicity islands HPI, YAPI, and plasmids pYV and pVM82.
Results. Analysis of CRISPR-loci in Y. pseudotuberculosis showed that spacer content varies in strains depending on serotype, set of pathogenicity factors, and isolation place. The most variable loci are YP1 and YP3, locus YP2 is homogeneous. Locus YP1 varies in strains that differ by presence of plasmid pVM82, while content of locus YP3 depends on presence of plasmid pVM82 and adhesion pathogenicity island YAPI.
Conclusion. Strains of Y. pseudotuberculosis circulating in Russia have a huge diversity of pathogenicity factors and CRISPR spacer content. Most of Russian strains differ by molecular markers from strains isolated in other countries. High variability is defined by ability to get new genetic elements in horizontal gene transfer. In bacteria, CRISPR-Cas system provides immunity against mobile genetic elements and can participate in formation of Y. pseudotuberculosis pathogenic potential.

This article brings an implicit problem: How to unite different peoples and cultures, that are in constant tranformation, around a commom project? The democratic regime is the most approprieate for this task, as it respects diferences and combines it with freedom and justice to promote equal opportunities. On the other hand, the union carried out democratically improves democracy, both favoring each other.

In David Sassoli, intelligence and cognitive awareness are placed at the service of primordial ethical values: in the passionate defence of knowledge, freedom and commitment to the common good. His deep and strong love for life expands to the way he fraternises, speaks or acts, with a relentless lucidity and moral demand. It is this attitude, this way of exercising citizenship and doing politics, that is recognisably unique and fascinating in him. An independent person who, standing outside the dominant logic and power, attracted others by his authenticity, his example, by the inner voice of a truth, which emerges.
