Two traditions of studying modality: plan of expression
Authors: Ezhkova Viсtoria Andreevna
Published: January 2022

This article advances a hypothesis on the existence of two linguistic traditions of studying modality from the perspective of the plan of expression. The first tradition – the national one – stems from the works of V. V. Vinogradov. The second tradition – the foreign one – harks back to the studies of the philosophers and logicians. The author explores the views of the scholars of both traditions, concluding on their ways of expressing modality. It is noted that researchers use different principles of grouping the modal means; divide them into the markers of objective and subjective modality, epistemic and non-epistemic modality, grammatical and lexical, as well as implicit and explicit. At the same time, there is no uniform systemic representation on the ways of expressing modality in different languages or in a particular language (in this context – Russian). Solution to this problem requires demarcating modality and subjectivity as the different categories of modus. Modality is a way of expressing irreality of events with regards to semantics (current status of a sentence) and pragmatics (illocutive function of a statement). Subjectivity is a method of conveying emotional and mental attitudes of the speaker in relation to the content of his utterance, reality, as well as other parties to communication. Therefore, modal means should include the linguistic units, which introduce the irreal plan of the possibility and necessity. Leaning on such interpretation of the category, the author lists the means of expressing modality in the Russian language.

This research deals with the study of Rime in the prose of Abi Al-Fadl Al-Mikali, a study that dealt with this phenomenon in the fourth century AH. The Rime has an important impact on the literary text reaching its goal through mastering the selection of words and letters, considering their characteristics and sounds, so the recipient is delighted when he hears and the reader when he reads, and together it draws attention to the Rime in Abi Al-Fadl Al-Mikaly’s prose, that- this artistic color often leads On other inventive arts such as alliteration and iteration One of the most important recommendations that writers should not lose sight of in their writing is to stay away from the necessity of Riming in their artistic texts unless it is necessary, lest the literary work be spoiled by excessive embellishment and sophistication, so it loses its luster, and distorts its meaning. The recipient responds to the category work through its harmonious music and Rims that correspond to the requirements of the soul, and it is not possible in any way to isolate the rhythm of the Rime from the meaning and context, and the creator's emotion. The ancient and contemporary critics were interested in this art and its impact on the artwork! Its place in prose is the place of weight in poetry, this art that entered the arts of literature, and gave it a sense of goodness, and a lot of interest in this art and commitment to it in the book of this century, except for what is rarely important.

In light of the Covid 19 crisis, the telecommunications sector is no longer limited to traditional communication and searching for information, but rather the trend to communicate via the Internet, and this trend has gained great strength and spread and as a result, we see today digital conferences where individuals participate for predetermined hours, to cover a broad topic, such as blogging or education. Or medicine or technology. The process of digital transformation in conferences is very sensitive in light of the Covid 19 crisis, while most of the economic literature in this field has focused on the success factors of digital conferences as an alternative to direct meetings under conditions of divergence and quarantine, the factors of failure and failure are left aside, This is what prompted us to prepare this paper, through which we aim to shed light on the digital transformation of conferences and the specter of failure threatening them in light of the Covid 19 crisis, referring to the state of conferences for some countries and companies in a study of the impact of this on achieving success for their digital conferences.

The Poem of Experience: Term and Foundations: قصيدة التجربة: المصطلح والأسس
Authors: Mouhamad Basher Yaser Alahmad Mouhamad Basher Yaser Alahmad
Published: January 2022

This research, with its cognitive tools, seeks to present its understanding of the term "poem of experience", according to a vision based on the approach between thematic poetry that is defined by themes and purposes emanating from an accident, and poetry that revolts against this stereotype, and transcends the occasion and the topic, to be concerned with their impact and effectiveness. The research attempted to draw the boundaries of the term "poem of experience" by examining the lexical significance and the deliberative context of the term. He also noted the confusion of some critical studies between the terms "experiment" and "experimentation" with regard to the sensitivity of experience and the formality of experimentation, and concluded the general foundations of the poem experience, which is reflected in the destruction of topics, transgression of purposes, diversity of significance and openness of interpretation. Hence, the research acquires its legitimacy, based on proposing a critical concept specific to the modernist poem, which is no longer bound by the stereotyped poetic controls and its functions.

Systematic Bottom-Up Molecular Coarse-Graining via Force Matching using Anisotropic Particles
Authors: Huang David , Nguyen Huong
Published: January 2022

We derive a systematic and general method for parametrizing coarse-grained molecular models consisting of anisotropic particles from fine-grained (e.g. all-atom) models for condensed-phase molecular dynamics simulations. The method, which we call anisotropic force-matching coarse-graining (AFM-CG), is based on rigorous statistical mechanical principles, enforcing consistency between the coarse-grained and fine-grained phase-space distributions to derive equations for the coarse-grained forces, masses, and moments of inertia in terms of properties of a condensed-phase fine-grained system. We verify the accuracy and efficiency of the method by coarse-graining liquid-state systems of two different anisotropic organic molecules, benzene and perylene, and show that the parametrized coarse-grained models more accurately describe properties of these systems than previous anisotropic coarse-grained models parametrized using other methods that do not account for finite-temperature and many-body effects on the condensed-phase coarse-grained interactions. The AFM-CG method will be useful for developing accurate and efficient dynamical simulation models of condensed-phase systems of molecules consisting of large, rigid, anisotropic fragments, such as nucleic acids, liquid crystals, and organic semiconductors.

Quercetin (QUE) is a nutraceutical compound that exhibits pharmacological properties such as antioxidant, cardioprotective, anti-ulcer, and anti-inflammatory effects. Although QUE is well-known for its benefits, its efficacy is limited due to low solubility. Thus, cocrystallization acts as an interesting approach to improve the solubility�among other properties�of this compound. In this work, cocrystallization screening was applied through neat grinding (NG) and liquid-assisted grinding (LAG), in which QUE and four cocrystal formers (benzamide,�picolinamide, isonicotinamide, and pyrazinoic acid) were tested. The precursors and QUE-coformer systems were characterized using thermoanalytical techniques (TG-DTA), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The results showed the formation of QUE cocrystals with picolinamide and isonicotinamide coformers in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. Furthermore, although coformers are isomers, spectroscopic and thermal data suggest that the supramolecular synthons involved in cocrystallization are different.

Objectives: To determine the ability of handgrip strength combined with body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) to estimate body fat percentage (BF%) in middle-aged and older Asian adults. Methods: Middle-aged and older Asian adults (n=459, males=197) were randomly divided into a validation and model development group (n=303) and cross-validation group (n=156). A whole-body scan using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry measured BF%. Bland-Altman plots, standard error of the estimates, total errors and mean absolute errors were used to compare prediction equations. Stepwise regression analysis was used to determine a new prediction equation for middle-aged and older Asian adults. Right and left handgrip strength, age, sex and BMI were included in the analysis. Results: A previously developed prediction equation that included handgrip strength poorly predicted BF% in our current sample with the mean difference being -6.0 ± 4.2%. Predicted BF% values were significantly lower than measured BF% values (22.7% vs. 28.7%, p<0.05). A new prediction equation was developed that included sex, BMI, left handgrip strength and age. Validation of the new equation revealed a constant error of 0.2 ± 3.9% with there being no significant difference between measured and predicted BF% (28.2% vs. 28.5%, p=0.467). Previously developed BF% equations using BMI, but not handgrip strength, had similar constant errors and mean absolute errors compared to the new prediction equation. Conclusion: Handgrip strength does not appear to improve the estimation of body fat percentage from BMI prediction equations in middle and older-aged Asian adults.
Engineering the Climate
Authors: Schubert Julia
Published: January 2022

Notions of the impending climate crisis have pushed a set of highly contested techno-scientific measures onto policy agendas around the world. Suggestions to deliberately alter, to engineer, the Earth’s climate have gained political currency in recent years not as a positive vision of techno-scientific innovation, but as a daunting measure of last resort. The controversial status of various so-called climate engineering proposals raises a simple, yet pressing question: How has it has come to this? And, more specifically, how did such contested measures earn their place on policy agendas, despite enormous scientific complexities and fierce political contestation? Global societal problems, such as climate change, financial crises, or pandemics have brought the political relevance of scientific expertise to the foreground. This book speaks to scholarship in sociology and science studies, seeking to illuminate the essential entanglements between efforts to understand and efforts to govern such problems. By giving climate engineering a life of its own and following its dynamic trajectory as a contested object of expert work, this book sheds light on the reflexive and historically contingent interplay of science and politics as two distinct, yet increasingly interdependent, realms of society.

This research presents an experimental investigation of the rehabilitation efficiency of the damaged hybrid reinforced concrete beams with openings in the shear region. The study investigates the difference in retrofitting ability of hybrid beams compared to traditional beams and the effect of two openings compared with one opening equalized to two holes in the area. Five RC beams classified into two groups, A and B, were primarily tested to full-failure under two-point loads. The first group (A) contained beams with normal weight concrete. The second group (hybrid) included beams with lightweight concrete for web and bottom flange, whereas the top flange was made from normal concrete. Two types of openings were considered in this study, rectangular, with dimensions of 100×200 mm, and two square openings with a side dimension of 100 mm. A full wrapping configuration system for the shear region (failure zone) was adopted in this research. Based on the test results, the repaired beams managed to recover their load carrying capacity, stiffness, and structural performance in different degrees. The normal concrete beam regains its total capacity for all types of openings, while the hybrid beams gain 84% of their strength. The strength of hybrid concrete members compared with normal concrete is 81 and 88% for beams of one opening and two openings, respectively. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-01-012 Full Text: PDF

El progreso social se encamina proporcionalmente a la calidad del sistema educativo que mantenga cada nación, a sabiendas que éste es uno de los elementos más poderosos para contrabalancear las condiciones desfavorables presentes en el entorno. Y dado que cada sistema educativo es tan bueno como el profesorado que lo conforma, de ellos depende en gran medida no sólo la consecución de una experiencia escolar óptima, sino en general, el éxito de las reformas y procesos educativos; siendo que una didáctica deficiente es más propensa a suscitar una marginación social. La presente investigación de corte cuantitativo descriptivo tiene por objeto analizar la eficacia generada al diseñar e implementar un e-course de gestión educativa como herramienta complementaria de formación para el desarrollo de profesionales de la educación. La selección de los sujetos de estudio se llevó a cabo a través de un muestreo no probabilístico voluntario, en el que se contó con la participación de 211 individuos provenientes de 20 instituciones de educación superior, pertenecientes a 14 países miembros de la Red de Apoyo a la Gestión Educativa, una asociación científica sin ánimo de lucro, orientada a promover, fortalecer y mejorar la gestión educativa en Iberoamérica. Como técnica de recolección de datos se recurrió a la encuesta mediante el uso de cuestionarios como instrumento y fuente primaria de información cuantitativa y cualitativa; mientras que para la fase de análisis se hace uso del software estadístico Minitab 19.

El presente trabajo parte de la consideración de la tutoría como una estrategia implementada para elevar la eficiencia terminal de los estudiantes del nivel medio superior y resaltando que la misma forma parte del Plan de Desarrollo Institucional de la Universidad de Guanajuato como un rograma estratégico. El principal objetivo de esta investigación es conocer los lineamientos normativos y la percepción que tienen los tutores sobre su papel y desempeño frente a un grupo, permitiendo así que el tutor analice la importancia que tiene su función, el compromiso que implica y la responsabilidad para capacitarse en el cumplimiento de lo que plantea la Universidad de Guanajuato respecto a la tutoría y los retos que la misma conlleva como lo es un acompañamiento de tipo personal y académico a lo largo del proceso educativo para mejorar el rendimiento académico, solucionar problemas escolares, desarrollar hábitos de estudio, trabajo, reflexión y convivencia social. Se desarrolló en la Escuela de Nivel Medio Superior de Celaya, sede Sauz, utilizándose la encuesta a tutorados y entrevista a profesores tutores como recursos metodológicos para la obtención de datos. Derivado del análisis realizado se detectaron importantes áreas de oportunidad que afectan significativamente los objetivos medulares establecidos en la normatividad como lo es el brindar a los estudiantes atención personalizada para identificar a tiempo los problemas de su desempeño e impulsar el mayor desarrollo en todas las áreas, es decir además de la cognitiva, la afectiva y la social. Se encontró que la mayoría de los tutores percibe su labor como algo fundamental para la eficiencia terminal, sin embargo un 67% de los tutores no considera estar capacitado para ser tutor.
