Published: May 2024

La escritora montevideana Ida Vitale (2 de noviembre de 1923) se destaca por su prolífera actividad intelectual como poeta, ensayista, periodista, crítica literaria y, además, por su enorme legado como traductora. Y aunque la autora prefiere desalinearse de una corriente literario-artística, se tiende a situarla en la “Generación del 45” o “Generación Crítica”, junto a otras escritoras y otros escritores, tales como Idea Vilariño (1920-2009), Mario Benedetti (1920-2009), Carlos Maggi (1922-2015) y Ángel Rama (1926-1983).1 Durante su juventud estudió humanidades en Montevideo, su ciudad natal, y se perfeccionó en la lengua y la cultura francesas en La Sorbona, Francia. Ejerció la docencia como profesora de Literatura en distintos institutos de enseñanza secundaria en Montevideo hasta los años setenta y, luego en México, durante su exilio por la última dictadura militar en Uruguay (1973-1985).

Authors: Sesli Mutlu , Köroğlu Ali
Published: May 2024

Bu çalışmanın odak noktası, siyaset bilgisi ile seçmen ilgilenimi arasındaki ilişkiyi analiz etmek ve siyaset bilgisini ve seçmen ilgilenimini etkileyen sosyal ve demografik faktörleri belirlemektir. Bu amaçla, Tokat ilinde yaşayan 18 yaş üstü 401 katılımcı üzerinde bir araştırma yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçları, siyaset bilgisi ile seçmen ilgilenimi arasında olumlu bir ilişki olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca, sosyal ve demografik faktörlerin siyaset bilgisi ve seçmen ilgilenimi üzerinde etkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir. Örneğin, erkeklerin siyaset bilgisi ve ilgisi kadınlardan daha yüksek bulunmuştur. 50 yaş ve üzeri bireylerin siyasete olan ilgileri, orta yaş grubundakilere kıyasla daha yüksek çıkmıştır. Eğitim düzeyi incelendiğinde, ilkokul/ortaokul mezunlarının ve lisans mezunlarının siyasete olan ilgilerinin, lise ve ön lisans mezunlarından daha düşük olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Meslek gruplarına bakıldığında, esnafların siyaset bilgisi, işsizlerden daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Memurların ve akademisyenlerin siyasete olan ilgileri, öğrenciler ve diğer meslek gruplarına kıyasla daha düşük çıkmıştır. Siyasi ve kültürel kimliklere göre farklılıklar incelendiğinde, siyasetten uzak duran bireylerin siyaset bilgisinin, diğer kesimlere kıyasla daha düşük olduğu görülmüştür. Milli görüşçü olarak kendini tanımlayanların siyasete olan ilgileri, muhafazakar/dindar, milliyetçi ve siyasetten uzak olanlara kıyasla daha yüksek çıkmıştır. Ayrıca, parti tercihinin oy verme davranışını etkilediğini düşünenlerin siyasete olan ilgileri, bu etkiden bahsetmeyenlere kıyasla daha düşük bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, mevcut partisi dışında başka bir partiye oy verebileceğini belirtenlerin siyaset bilgisi ve ilgileri, başka bir partiye kesinlikle oy vermeyeceğini ifade edenlere kıyasla daha düşük bulunmuştur. Elde edilen bulgular, siyasi partilerin seçmenlere projelerini, hedeflerini ve ideolojilerini tanıtırken ve propaganda yaparken hedef kitlelerini belirleme konusunda rehberlik edebilir.
EARLY EUROPEAN WOMEN IN SEISMOLOGY
Authors: BUFORN ELISA
Published: May 2024

Inge Lehmann is the best-known European woman seismologist, but she is not an isolated case. The presence of women seismologists in Europe has a long tradition, with the earliest women researchers appearing at the beginning of the 20th century in the United Kingdom, Denmark, the former USSR, and France. After World War II, women seismologists in Europe had an important presence. Their names are present in the lists of participants in seismological international meetings (IASPEI or ESC), where information about these women and their roles in these institutions can be found. This paper concentrates on the presence of women seismologists in Europe in the 1920–1970 period. After the 1970s, the number of women in seismology has increased considerably.
MINING PENCILS, SCULPTING GRAPHITE: THE SIBERIAN EXPEDITION OF J.-P. ALIBERT (1844–1857) AND THE EVOLVING 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN VISUAL AND MATERIAL CULTURE RELATED TO EARTH SCIENCES
Authors: NAPOLITANI MADDALENA
Published: May 2024

This article explores, through a case study of Jean–Pierre Alibert's (1820–1905) expedition in Siberia (1844–1857), the relationship established between Earth sciences, mining, and visual arts during the second half of the 19th century. Alibert was a French businessman who discovered an important deposit of graphite in Siberia. He then built a mine to exploit this material which was in high demand to produce pencils. When Alibert returned to Europe in 1857, he created an album of gouaches to commemorate his expedition, and he offered some sculptures composed of graphite and nephrite jade to important scientific institutions in Paris as trophies of the expedition. While a few written sources are available, I will directly question these visual and material sources to situate this case study within the context of its time, and of Earth sciences’ progress and technical achievements, to shed light on the phenomena that characterized the quest for a renewed scientific visual language related to Earth sciences.
ARTURO ISSEL (1842–1922): THE MAN FROM GENOA BEHIND THE TYRRHENIAN STAGE OF THE PLEISTOCENE
Authors: HISTON KATHLEEN
Published: May 2024

Arturo Issel (1842–1922) introduced the regional Tyrrhenian stage of the late Pleistocene in 1914. This still stands within modern stratigraphic classification as an Italian Marine Stage for the Mediterranean Sea marking the base of the Late Pleistocene underlining the scientific importance of Issel's research within the geological sciences. This paper provides a short overview of the career and the wide-ranging interests of this Italian geologist and naturalistic traveller in order to provide a context to the knowledge and research experience behind his stratigraphic work. As university professor in Genovese society during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, he played an important role in scientific instruction, exploration and research contributing to the popularization of science through museum collections and publications and in the application of such knowledge within public office both in Liguria and within Italy. He formed part of the Italian delegation at International Geological Congresses and held membership of the most outstanding geological societies and scientific academies of the time.

On the example of macroalgae in the conditions of full-scale experiment the ability of ultrasound to complicate, but not completely inhibit the development of plant colonizers is shown. The greatest sensitivity to the impact of ultrasound is shown by red algae. It is recommended to expand the experiments with the use of ultrasound installation of higher power in order to assess the effect of ultrasound on different groups of algae during the operation of NPP.
Autoregulation of cerebral blood flow in normal and pathological conditions
Authors: Bunenkov N. S. , Karpov A. A. , Galagudza M. M.
Published: May 2024

The metabolic needs of the brain largely depend on the intensity of the functioning of its various departments, which requires constant regulation of the level of local blood flow. The importance of accurate and timely regulation of cerebral blood flow is enhanced by the lack of substrate stores for autonomous energy production in nervous tissue. In this case, the state of systemic hemodynamics can have a significant effect on organ blood flow. At the same time, given the significant importance of the central nervous system in providing all physiological processes, the regulation of organ cerebral blood flow is aimed at minimizing the possible adverse consequences of the influence of disorders of systemic hemodynamics. In this regard, the regulation of cerebral blood flow is based on multiple and complex physiological mechanisms at various levels. The basic level of regulation of cerebral blood flow is myogenic response, which provides the phenomenon of autoregulation of blood flow in the brain. The review focuses on the physiological mechanisms underlying myogenic regulation as well as the change in this regulation in various diseases.
Politics, Shakespeare, East-Central Europe: Theatrical Border Crossings
Authors: Almási Zsolt , Kujawińska Courtney Krystyna , Nicolaescu Mădălina , Škrobánková Klára , Vyroubalova Ema , Zaharia Oana-Alis
Published: May 2024

This essay discusses how productions of Shakespeare’s plays that transcend various geographical, national, and linguistic boundaries have influenced the theatrical-political discourse in East-Central Europe in the twenty-first century. It focuses primarily on the work of four internationally-established directors: Andrei Şerban (Romania), Jan Klata (Poland), David Jařab (Czech Republic), and Matei Vișniec (Romania), whose works have facilitated interregional cultural exchange, promoting artistic innovation and experimentation in the region and beyond. Among the boundary-crossing productions analysed in detail are Vișniec’s Richard III will not Take Place, Jařab’s Macbeth – Too Much Blood, Klata’s Measure for Measure, and Serban’s Richard III. The essay also notes that while there has been a relative scarcity of Shakespearean productions in this region engaging closely with gender and race inequalities, productions such as Klata’s African Tales or Vladimír Morávek’s Othello manage to work with these politically charged topics in subtler but still productive ways. The essay concludes that the region’s shared historical experience of totalitarian regimes followed by the struggles of nascent democracies, provides a fertile ground for a diverse and internationally ambitious Shakespearean theatre.

Published: May 2024

This collectively authored position paper discusses “hybrid” Shakespeares in Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on productions that offer formal experimentation and transnational perspectives. While their contexts remain regional, they provide an insight into how Shakspeare has been mobilised regionally. The paper consists of four distinct parts, each considering Shakespeare in a hybrid form: in opera, dance and musical theatre as well as puppetry in the transnational, regional context. The general discussions of Shakespeare’s presence/appropriation in these art forms are followed by case studies that illustrate the significance of hybridity that characterises Shakespeare in the Central and Eastern European transnational context. Our brief analyses and selected case studies suggest a need for a detailed study of Shakespeare and performative arts in Central and Eastern Europe that would concentrate on the transgressive impulse these theatrical blends realised through formal experiment and artistic innovation.

ESTUDOS FEMINISTAS: RELAÇÃO ENTRE A CONSTRUÇÃO DE UMCAMPO TEÓRICO-EPISTEMOLÓGICO E AS FORMULAÇÕES DOSCONCEITOS DE GÊNERO
Authors: Senna Ferreira Luciane , Perez Gonçalves de Moura Eliana
Published: May 2024

O artigo faz parte de uma pesquisa de doutorado em andamento e tem o objetivo de discutir o percurso dos estudos feministas na construção de um novo campo teórico-epistemológico na produção do conhecimento, bem como sua importância na elaboração e desenvolvimento dos conceitos de gênero. Trata-se de estudo de cunho teórico bibliográfico, em que se pretende identificar e analisar a trajetória histórica e a problemática desse campo, seu potencial modificador e suas limitações. Centra-se na crítica que estes estudos produziram direcionados ao modo tradicional de produzir ciência, operando deslocamentos e viabilizando a inclusão das mulheres como sujeito e objeto das investigações. Faz-se uma apreciação das principais perspectivas sobre o conceito gênero a partir da abordagem do essencialismo biológico; do viés antropológico; da teoria pós-moderna, sem pretender estabelecer qualquer hierarquia entre elas ou delimitar uma evolução histórica-conceitual com base nas vertentes teóricas que as desenvolvem, busca-se destacar a complexidade das conceituações de gênero para compreensão das práticas sociais. Priorizam-se na discussão as relações intrínsecas entre movimentos feministas, epistemologias feministas e as formulações dos conceitos de gênero com vistas a apontar que fora dessas relações ambos se esvaziam tanto de sentido teórico-epistemológico como político. Dessa forma, o estudo apresenta relevância para compreensão histórica do movimento e dos estudos feministas na construção dos conceitos de gênero, que promoveram mudanças significativas no campo social e cultural, e colabora a fortalecer a base teórica e epistemológica ao examinar diferentes vertentes, proporcionando contribuições para a literatura e o debate em torno dos estudos feministas e de gênero.

Authors: Anggayanti Nyoman Ayu , Purbasari I Gusti Ayu Kade Ira , Wahyuni Putu Sinta Elix
Published: May 2024

Background: Predominant advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients lead to increased reactive oxygen species, causing oxidative stress and cell apoptosis, which hinders wound healing. Curcuma xanthorrhiza contains active compounds such as curcumin, flavonoids, and saponins, which can increase fibroblast cell production, the primary indicator of wound healing, and serve as AGE inhibitors. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the effect of 5% C. xanthorrhiza extract gel on the number of fibroblasts in diabetic Wistar rats during the healing of tooth extraction over a specific duration. Methods: The left mandibular incisor was extracted after using alloxan to induce diabetes in the rats. The socket was then treated with different compounds, including 5% C. xanthorrhiza extract gel, placebo CMC-Na, or Gengigel. A histopathological examination of the socket was conducted to assess the presence of fibroblasts on days one, three, and five after treatment. Results: The number of fibroblasts in the sockets treated with 5% C. xanthorrhiza extract gel was lower than in the Gengigel group but higher than in the placebo group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: 5% C. xanthorrhiza extract gel can increase the number of fibroblasts, thereby potentially accelerating wound healing in DM.

Authors: Ramadhani Nabila Almira , Widyaningrum Rini , Gracea Rellyca Sola , Ningtyas Aini Hasibah , Mudjosemedi Munakhir
Published: May 2024

Background: Sex estimation is the first step in identifying bodies following disasters or accidents. Craniometric analysis of lateral cephalograms can be used in the process. Among the measurements that can be used are the length of cranial base, determined by Basion–Nasion (Ba-N) length, and the total face height, determined by the Nasion–Menton (N-M) length, which can highlight significant differences between men and women. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the differences in length of cranial base and total face height measurements between men and women and to demonstrate how these two measurements can be used for sex estimation in the Indonesian population. Methods: This cross-sectional study employed a patient database from the dental hospital of Universitas Gadjah Mada. The study sample consisted of 116 cephalograms taken of 58 men and 58 women aged 20–40 years. The linear measurements were taken using EzDent-I Vatech software. Results: The mean cranial base length measurements in the men and women groups were 103.83 ± 4.37 and 96.01 ± 3.80 mm, respectively, whereas the total face height measurements were 121.03 ± 7.26 and 111.23 ± 5.09 mm, respectively. The Mann–Whitney U-Test revealed a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the groups. Logistic regression showed that the two measurements can be used to form an equation for sex estimation with an accuracy of 88.8%. Conclusion: Length of cranial base (Ba-N) and total face height (N-M) measurements from lateral cephalograms can accurately be used for sex estimation. Further research among specific populations is required to develop accurate methods for sex estimation employing morphometric examination on radiographs.

ПРОГНОЗУВАННЯ МАРКЕТИНГОВИХ ТРЕНДІВ ДИСТАНЦІЙНОГО НАВЧАННЯ
Authors: Юдіна Н.В.
Published: May 2024

В умовах інформаційного суспільства діджиталізація освіти виокремлює і формує ринок дистанційних курсів, що підвищує актуальність прогнозування його маркетингових перспектив та виокремлення ефективних маркетингових інструментів. На противагу поширеній у світі точці зору про нестачу сформованих навичок серед молоді саме у наслідок вимушеного під час пандемії COVID-19 переходу традиційної форми навчання на дистанційну, стаття надає аргументи, що справжні причини саме таких негативних наслідків пандемії крилися не у самій формі навчання, а з маркетингової точки зору, недостатньо масової готовності дистанційних курсів, як інноваційної для освітнього ринка послуги, до їх ефективного використання споживачами. Це відбулося через нехтування глобальною традиційною системою освіти аналізу низки глобальних ризиків, недостатній завчасний розвиток дистанційної освіти і підготовки до миттєвого переключення на неї з традиційної форми. У статті підкреслено, що кризові явища стають синхронними та повсякденними, що перетворює їх на «нову нормальність». У цих умовах у статті прогнозується дистанційній освіті роль не тільки інструменту пом’якшення глобальних ризиків і страхування традиційної освіти у період криз, але й відокремленого та перспективного ринку. Зокрема зазначено, що на теперішньому етапі формування ринку розробникам дистанційних курсів доцільно приділити особливу увагу товарній якості і структурі самих дистанційних курсів. Виходячи з актуальних технологій, у статті виокремленні маркетингові тренди і маркетингові інструменти ринку дистанційного навчання, а саме відсутність традиційних домашніх завдань, інтеграція технологій Штучного Інтелекту, важливість створення і монтаж відеоконтенту як у вигляді стрімів, так й асинхронних записів, наявність субтитрів. Підкреслено цінність особистості лектора, у тому числі з психологічної точки зору. Впровадження запропонованих маркетингових інструментів розробниками дистанційних курсів сприятиме подальшій комерціалізації дистанційних курсів і подальшій їх інтеграції на міжнародні ринки.

У контексті охорони здоров'я існує нагальна потреба в оптимізації управління медичними даними, включаючи аспекти зберігання, обробки та обміну медичними зображеннями. Ця потреба стає все більш актуальною у зв'язку з підвищенням вимог до точності діагнозів та ефективності лікувальних процедур, що зумовлює необхідність вдосконалення існуючих систем у цій галузі. Водночас критично важливим стає питання забезпечення безпеки та конфіденційності даних пацієнтів. Впровадження передових технологій, в тому числі штучного інтелекту, має потенціал для значного підвищення точності діагностичних процедур. Метою цього дослідження є створення інноваційної системи для зберігання, обробки та обміну медичними зображеннями з акцентом на підвищення ефективності діагностики та забезпечення належного рівня безпеки даних пацієнтів. Проект включає розробку системи, інтегрованої з різними компонентами CRM-систем, такими як відстеження пацієнтів, планування, медична документація та звітність. Це сприятиме ефективній організації системи охорони здоров'я. Основним функціоналом розробленої системи є галерея для перегляду завантажених медичних зображень. Система оснащена сімома фільтрами, які дозволяють враховувати такі параметри, як тип сканування (включаючи ультразвукові зображення, отримані різними типами датчиків), тип зображення та інші ключові характеристики для аналізу медичних зображень. Це дає можливість користувачам системи ефективно фільтрувати, виявляти та завантажувати необхідні зображення для подальшого використання в діагностиці та лікуванні. Застосування цієї системи до реальних медичних зображень з різних медичних установ може зробити значний внесок у цифрову трансформацію сектору охорони здоров'я в Україні, відкриваючи можливості для інтеграції штучного інтелекту. Розроблену систему зберігання та обробки медичних зображень планується впровадити в структуру державної установи – Інституту ядерної медицини та променевої діагностики НАМН України.
The determinants of private investment: Evidence from South Africa
Authors: Maluleke Glenda
Published: May 2024

Purpose ─ This paper examines the determinants of private investment. The result can help the government determine which investment drivers to consider when formulating policies to stimulate private investment.Methodology ─ It uses a Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) estimation approach with time series data from 1965 to 2022. Findings ─ The results indicate that positive shocks in economic growth lead to an increase in private investment over the long term. Conversely, both positive and negative shocks in inflation are found to positively impact private investment in the long run. Additionally, domestic credit to the private sector has a negative impact in both the short and long term. Implications ─ The government should develop policies designed to create an environment conducive to private investment. These policies should focus on ensuring easy access to finance, enhancing the openness of the economy, and maintaining a low and stable inflation rate.Originality ─ Few studies have fully explored the important drivers of private investment, especially in South Africa. Moreover, the studies conducted in South Africa have used other cointegration techniques, which are relatively weak compared to the NARDL used in the current study.

La resistencia a los antibióticos representa una amenaza para la salud mundial que incrementa la morbilidad y mortalidad de la población. El uso excesivo e indiscriminado de antibióticos ha conducido a la aparición y propagación de bacterias resistentes. Las tetraciclinas han sido uno de los antibióticos más utilizados por su amplio espectro y bajo costo, y son frecuentemente detectados en ambientes acuáticos por su baja movilidad y persistencia. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la resistencia a tetraciclinas en aislados de Escherichia coli de aguas superficiales y aguas residuales en el noreste de Tamaulipas, México. Se analizaron 50 aislados de E. coli, de los cuales el 54 % fue resistente a tetraciclina; de este porcentaje, 16 y 26 % fueron resistentes a doxiciclina y minociclina, respectivamente. También se identificó resistencia a estreptomicina, ampicilina y trimetoprim-sulfametoxazol. De los genes tet, el más prevalente fue tet(A) en 74 %, mientras que intI se detectó en 22 % (p > 0.05). En el ensayo de conjugación plasmídica, 41 % de los aislados de E. coli transfirieron la resistencia a tetraciclina. Sólo tet(A) se transfirió a las receptoras en 81 %, en tanto que intI en 27 %. Cinco replicones plasmídicos fueron identificados en las transconjugantes. Los aislados de E. coli obtenidos de aguas superficiales y residuales del noreste de Tamaulipas representan un riesgo sanitario y ambiental, ya que tienen el potencial de trasferir los genes de resistencia, no sólo en el medio acuático sino también a otros ambientes y comunidades bacterianas.

Major Traffic Safety Reform and Road Traffic Injuries Among Low-Income New York Residents, 2009–2021
Authors: Dragan Kacie L. , Glied Sherry A.
Published: May 2024

Objectives. To evaluate the effects of a comprehensive traffic safety policy—New York City’s (NYC’s) 2014 Vision Zero—on the health of Medicaid enrollees.

Methods. We conducted difference-in-differences analyses using individual-level New York Medicaid data to measure traffic injuries and expenditures from 2009 to 2021, comparing NYC to surrounding counties without traffic reforms (n = 65 585 568 person-years).

Results. After Vision Zero, injury rates among NYC Medicaid enrollees diverged from those of surrounding counties, with a net impact of 77.5 fewer injuries per 100 000 person-years annually (95% confidence interval = −97.4, −57.6). We observed marked reductions in severe injuries (brain injury, hospitalizations) and savings of $90.8 million in Medicaid expenditures over the first 5 years. Effects were largest among Black residents. Impacts were reversed during the COVID-19 period.

Conclusions. Vision Zero resulted in substantial protection for socioeconomically disadvantaged populations known to face heightened risk of injury, but the policy’s effectiveness decreased during the pandemic period.

Public Health Implications. Many cities have recently launched Vision Zero policies and others plan to do so. This research adds to the evidence on how and in what circumstances comprehensive traffic policies protect public health.

Deciphering Global STEM Attitudes through Insightful Correlations for Education
Authors: Ummah Munfiathul , Shofiyah Noly
Published: May 2024

This study explores students' attitudes towards STEM and the relationship between STEM dimensions in Muhammadiyah Sidoarjo Junior High School, which implements STEM-based science learning. Through a survey of 85 students, it was found that students' attitudes were most dominant in the integrated STEM dimension and lowest in mathematics. However, the correlation between STEM dimensions varied, with technology and engineering showing no correlation with mathematics. These findings suggest that educators can leverage students' positive attitudes towards integrated STEM activities to improve engagement and learning outcomes. Furthermore, understanding the lack of correlation between certain STEM dimensions can inform curriculum adjustments for more effective integration of these disciplines in junior high school education.
Hightligh:

Strong preference for integrated STEM.
Varied correlation between STEM dimensions.
Informs curriculum adjustments for effective integration.

Keywords: STEM education, attitudes, Muhammadiyah Sidoarjo Junior High School, correlation, curriculum development

Published: May 2024

PT PHR as a leading energy company has a vision to become a world-class energy company. The BNG field is part of the area of work of PT PHR Zone 4 whose main production is natural gas and the plan is to be commercialized as a sale of gas. The gas produced from the BNG field has a CO2 content of 18% so it does not meet the specification of the limit set in the Agreement for the Sale of Gas between the PHR and the Consumer which amounts to 8% CO2 contents so that the gas from BNG fields are blending with gas from the MSB fields which have a low CO2 concentration to be further distributed to consumers mixing gas from both such fields has a content of CO2 at a figure of 4-6% that is still below the limit Gas sale and purchase requirements (PJBG), the problem will occur in 2027 where the production of gas of BNG field will increase, while the forecast of deliverable gas field MSB is expected to decrease to 50% from 2024 so the content of the gas mixing will exceed the limit. (PJBG). To meet the requirement of sale, a study in the selection of CO2 Removal Technology Unit is required to be installed to complete the Production Facility in the BNG field area. The author uses methodologies empirically and according to the field conditions to effective research goals. The writer uses a conceptual study framework. Quantitative data is obtained from data within the company, while qualitative data comes from discussions with the team and based on journals or studies that have been previously compiled. In addition, data from some kind of literature is also used in analysing the selection of gas-sweetening technologies. All necessary information and data are further analyzed in accordance with the conceptual framework. To ensure that the recommended operations management strategy is carried out through technical analysis, a study of mathematical models is conducted using some tested business strategy tools.

Published: May 2024

The squid, Sepioteuthis lessoniana, is a remarkable fishery product which is exported by many nations for use in industrial production or human consumption. This study focused on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from squid ink (SI) and its wide range of applications. The formation of the nanoparticles was confirmed through UV-Visible spectroscopy, FT-IR, XRD, SEM with EDAX, DLS, and Zeta potential analysis. The results showed a strong absorbance peak at 407nm, the presence of various functional groups, a nanocrystalline structure with a crystalline size of 17.56 nm, spherical shaped particles with an average size of 76 nm, and the presence of the highest % mass of Ag and uniformly dispersed particles, respectively. The bioactivity of the synthesized squid ink silver nanoparticles was analyzed through antibacterial, antioxidant, anticancer, and toxicity studies. The dye degradation assay was also analyzed as a means of wastewater treatment for different industrial dyes. The antibacterial activity showed the highest zone of inhibition of 24mm at a concentration of 100 µg/ml against Escherichia coli, followed by other tested strains. The nitric oxide radical scavenging assay showed the highest antioxidant activity (92%) at a concentration of 100µg/ml. The cytotoxic ability of SI-AgNPs against the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line revealed an IC50 value of 4.52 µg/ml. Toxicity study revealed a dose and time-dependent activity with the LC50 value of 5.090 and 3.303 mg/ml for 24 and 48 hours, respectively. The successful degradation of dyes by SI-AgNPs is attributed to the cooperative action of the electron relay system with Ag as a catalyst and SI as a catalytic support. These findings indicate that SI-AgNPs is a novel potential product that should be further studied to improve its pharmacological, biomedical, and environmental applications.
A semi-analytical and numerical approach for solving 2-D and 6-D nonlinear and complex functionally graded tubular systems
Authors: Dai Liming , Foroutan Kamran
Published: May 2024

This study delves into nonlinear vibratory responses of functionally graded (FG) tubes subjected to transverse loads, considering material properties that vary with temperature. A refined beam model established for the tubes satisfies the stress boundary conditions on inner and outer surfaces of the tubes. The nonlinear vibration equations for these functionally graded tubes are meticulously derived with employment of the Zhang–Fu high-order shear deformation beam model, the von Kármán equation, and Hamilton’s principle. The proposed approach is applied to address externally excited nonlinear FG tube systems, encompassing both the 2 degrees of freedom (DOF) single-mode systems and 6 DOF multi-mode systems. Utilizing Galerkin’s method, the resulting discretized nonlinear governing equations allow for the analyses of single and multi-mode tubular system behavior. In solving for the tubular system, an approach implementing the P-T method is managed to be implemented, which yields a continuous semi-analytical solution throughout the entire time domain considered. The approach also demonstrates the advances on the development of a genuinely new computational method with broad impact. In comparison to the widely used Runge-Kutta (R-K) method, the proposed approach demonstrates superior efficiency, accuracy, and reliability, especially for highly nonlinear and complex systems like the FG tubular systems.
