Authors: Mahabbat Khudaverdiyeva Mahabbat Khudaverdiyeva
Published: November 2023

Measuring distance plays a pivotal role across a multitude of domains, such as robotics, automation, and navigation systems. Fuzzy logic has increasingly garnered substantial interest as a means to augment the accuracy and versatility of distance measurement systems. This comprehensive review delves deep into the examination and juxtaposition of diverse techniques for measuring distance by harnessing the power of Fuzzy logic. The primary objective is to meticulously assess the efficacy of Fuzzy logic when contrasted with alternative methodologies and affirm their dominance regarding precision, resilience, and adaptability. Fuzzy logic holds the potential to revolutionize distance measurement technology and contribute to safer and more efficient operations in fields such as robotics, automation, and navigation systems. Future research should focus on fine-tuning fuzzy logic parameters and exploring new applications to further harness their potential. Fuzzy logic outperforms conventional control methods in distance measurement due to their remarkable adaptability, robustness, human-like decision-making capabilities, ease of integration, capacity to handle non-linearity, and real-time adaptability. While traditional methods have their merits, they often struggle to match the versatility and reliability of Fuzzy logic in a world where complex and uncertain environments demand precision and adaptability. As technology continues to evolve and applications become more demanding, Fuzzy logic remains at the forefront of enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of distance measurement systems across various domains.

Published: November 2023

The incidence and recent trends of candidemia and the contribution of the COVID-19 pandemic to its evolution are not well documented. The catheter is a major focus of Candida spp. infections, but the methods used to confirm the origin of candidemia are still based on the data generated for bacterial infection. The presence of Candida spp. on the tip of a removed catheter is the gold standard for confirmation but it is not always possible to remove it. Conservative methods, without catheter removal, have not been specifically studied for microorganisms whose times of growth are different from those of bacteria and therefore these results are not applicable to candidemia. The different Candida species do not have a particular tropism for catheter colonization and fungal biomarkers have not yet been able to contribute to the determination of the origin of candidemia. Techniques such Candida T2 Magnetic Resonance (T2MR) has not yet been applied for this purpose. Finally, there is not yet a consensus of how to proceed when Candida spp. is isolated from an extracted catheter and blood cultures obtained from simultaneous peripheral veins are negative. In this lack of firm data, a group of experts has formulated a series of questions trying to answer them based on the literature, indicating the current deficiencies and offering their own opinion. All authors agree with the conclusions of the manuscript and offer it as a position and discussion paper.

The article presents constraining factors of the use of traditional approaches for timber skidding in the winter logging period in the North-West Federal District of the Russian Federation. Based on the study of scientific literature, the classification of cable-railways is given, methods of fastening the platform or cable car to the traction cable, the peculiarities of cable selection are considered. The modes of operation of cable-railways are described (without an engine – as a timber slide, with an engine without a trailing cable, with an engine with a trailing cable), the basic requirements for cable-railways and factors limiting the scope of application of such roads are considered. A methodology for determining the driving forces is proposed. It takes into account the weight of the car moving on the slope, the number of cars, the angle of inclination of the track section, the resistance to car movement, additional resistance to car movement when passing curves, the weight of the cable, its length, the friction of the cable on the ground, sleepers and other obstacles, which depends on the condition of the track structure, the density of sleeper laying, ballast protruding on the surface, cable lubrication and other factors. In addition to the above, power losses from the resistance of track rollers when they are enveloped by the running down branch of the cable, friction losses in the trunnions of the winch drums and friction losses from the cable enveloping the winch drums were considered. The article discusses the conditions under which it is possible to move the car down the slope, as well as prevent slipping and provide cable braking in the grooves of the drums. Limitations for the use of cable-railways, depending on the nature of the track, rolling stock, slope angle of the track, average skidding distance, are determined. A technical solution to improve the existing cable-railways using an articulated carriage that increases the operational properties of cable-railways, is proposed. The proposed design allows to reduce the wear of cables and to organize timber harvesting, including on nonstraight skidding trails with rotation angles up to 45 degrees. At the same time, the design of the articulated carriage can be effectively applied on cable-railways already in operation.

Published: November 2023

The article discusses the accelerated cultivation of quality planting material using the method of seed preparation by soaking in water treated in low-temperature plasma discharge. The most promising planting material are seedlings with closed root system. They are grown from improved seed grain in optimal conditions of greenhouses. Among various methods of stimulating germination of the seed germ, it is of interest to influence it with “cold” plasma. With the help of a specially designed device, which allows to treat water with lowtemperature plasma discharge, plasma-treated water for soaking seeds was obtained. The time of water treatment varied from 1 to 4 min. Water activated by plasma had acidity indicators other than those of ordinary water. The time of acidity level restoration was from 2 to 4 days. Germination rates and germination energy were obtained for seeds of Pinus silvestrys and Picea abies soaked in water with different duration of plasma treatment. When seeds were soaked in water treated with plasma for 1, 2 and 4 min, germination energy increased by 20–31 % for pine and by 6–18 % for spruce compared to the control (soaking in distilled water). Technical germination of pine seeds increased by 11–21 %, for spruce by 3–16 %. The results of research show changes in the structure and composition of the nutrient substance of the seed, in the structure of the germ and the degree of its development. Analysis of the chemical composition of seed endosperm a day after soaking relative to dry seeds showed an increase in its carbon content by 2–3 % and a decrease in oxygen by 1 %; potassium – by 0.5 %. When seeds were soaked in distilled water, the content of phosphorus in the endosperm decreased by 0.15 %, and the content of sodium – by 0.2 %. For seeds soaked in plasma treated water, phosphorus content decreased by 0.21–0.22 % and sodium content was not observed. Soaking seeds in plasma-treated water stimulates the processes of their preparation for germination and differentiation of germ tissues (formation of seed pods), compared to seeds soaked in water.

Published: November 2023

Birch, being one of the main forest-forming tree species, has valuable and soughtafter timber. In production forest conditions, natural regeneration and crops of this species experience strong competition from both grass cover and undesirable hardwoods (aspen, gray alder and willow). Without carrying out high-quality maintenance (agrotechnical care, clearing), the formation of economically valuable birch forests is impossible. The most effective and economical is the chemical care method, which involves the use of modern environmentally friendly herbicides. However, if technological regulations and practical recommendations for the use of herbicides have already been developed for the care of coniferous species (pine, spruce and others), then there are currently no such recommendations for birch. The aim of the research is to develop a scientifically based method of caring for natural young birch stands (clearing, agrotechnical care) using selective herbicides on forest fund lands. The objects of research are seed and vegetative regeneration of birch in young stands formed in clear-cut areas, as well as undesirable herbaceous and tree-shrub vegetation. When laying the experiments and evaluating their results, we were guided by the generally accepted methodology for testing herbicides in agriculture. In field production and small-scale experiments with herbicides magnum, magnum super, mortira and anchor-85 in young stands with birch trees, the biological effectiveness of the action of the preparations on a wide range of undesirable vegetation was determined, as well as their selectivity with respect to birch. High efficiency of herbicides magnum (100–300 g/ha) and magnum super (100–200 g/ha) on dicotyledonous species of herbaceous vegetation and deciduous species – willow, aspen, gray alder and mountain-ash, as well as high resistance of birch to them at continuous spraying during the growing season was established. Herbicides mortira (100–200 g/ha) and anchor-85 (100 g/ha) were recognized as unsuitable for birch care. It was found that after a single application of herbicide magnum at rates of 100 and 200 g/ha in mixed young stands dominated by aspen, willow and gray alder and with participation of birch 1–2 composition units, stands dominated by the latter are formed.

Published: November 2023

Introdução: A Necrólise Epidérmica Tóxica (NET) é uma emergência dermatológica caracterizada por necrólise epidérmica generalizada, causando descamação da pele, que se torna susceptível a infecções graves. Apresenta acometimento multissistêmico, com alta morbimortalidade. O manejo da NET é multifacetado, e começa com a identificação e retirada do agente causador. A identificação do agente depende de um histórico clínico completo, visto que os sintomas geralmente se apresentam dentro de oito semanas após o início da terapia medicamentosa. Suspender o fármaco causador é fundamental na evolução da patologia e o sucesso clínico depende, principalmente, do tratamento de suporte, para evitar complicações, como sepse.

Objetivo: Relatar um caso único de NET atendido em nosso serviço.

Método: Trata-se do relato do caso de um paciente atendido no Hospital Universitário São Francisco na Providência de Deus – HUSF, localizado na cidade de Bragança Paulista - SP.

Relato do Caso: O caso relatado neste trabalho tratou-se de um paciente do sexo masculino, 33 anos, sem comorbidades conhecidas, que apresentou lesões vesiculares eritematosas pruriginosas e dolorosas, inicialmente na região da virilha e membros superiores, com progressão para o tronco e membros inferiores, associadas a febre, hiperemia ocular e conjuntivite. O paciente também apresentava anemia, PCR elevada e hipoalbuminemia, mas com função renal e hepática normais. Sorologias para HIV e sífilis foram realizadas, com resultados positivos. Durante a internação, as lesões pioraram rapidamente, com envolvimento de mucosas, descamação da pele e descolamento epidermal, levantando a suspeita de NET. O paciente foi admitido na UTI devido ao acometimento generalizado, HIV recém-diagnosticado e risco de sepse. O tratamento incluiu isolamento, cuidados intensivos da pele, ciclosporina, penicilina benzatina devido diagnóstico de sífilis e terapia antirretroviral para HIV, levando a uma melhora significativa. Após 11 dias de internação, o paciente recebeu alta hospitalar mantendo seguimento ambulatorial com infectologista e dermatologista.

Conclusão: Este artigo destacou um caso clínico que ilustra a diversidade de cenários em que a NET pode ocorrer, enfatizando a importância do reconhecimento precoce, do tratamento multidisciplinar e do manejo adequado para melhorar as perspectivas dos pacientes, principalmente imunossuprimidos. Além disso,  a conscientização sobre a NET, especialmente em relação a medicamentos específicos, é crucial para garantir uma abordagem eficaz e o acompanhamento dos pacientes, especialmente aqueles com condições de saúde subjacentes.
The principle of bona fides: from the doctrine of Roman law to national justice
Authors: Zadorozhny Yuriy , Zadorozhnya Galina
Published: November 2023

The article examines the essence of the principle of bona fides, formed by the doctrine of Roman law, reveals its essence and analyzes the expediency of applying bona fides in the process of national justice. It is clarified that the principle of bona fides was the flagship in Roman law, but in the national legal system it is only an auxiliary principle. It was determined that the practical essence of bona fides in the judicial proceedings of the Roman legal system was that the judge, deciding this or that dispute, had the right to depart from the normative prescription if it contradicted bona fides, and decide the court case not «according to the law», but according to conscience, i. e. fairly. It was concluded that the Supreme Court, as the highest court in the judicial system of Ukraine, should have the exclusive right to apply bona fides when deciding court cases in the above-mentioned legal disputes, which enables it to use bona fides as the main, not auxiliary, source of law when deciding legal disputes. which is consistent with its exclusive judicial mission, namely: to ensure stability and unity of judicial practice, which is extremely important for strengthening the authority of the Supreme Court in society and in the court system of the Ukrainian judiciary. It was established that the national legal system inevitably recognizes precedent at the legislative level as a source of law that is applied by the court. This will enable the stability and unity of judicial practice, the restoration of violated individual rights, and will also establish the supremacy of justice over the law.

Key words: principle of bona fides, justice, principles of law, Romano-Germanic legal family, Roman law, sources of law, judicial precedent.
Regarding consideration of the principle of primacy of arbitration in cases of invalidation of an arbitration agreement in economic proceedings
Authors: Podtserkovnyi Oleg , Budurova Hanna
Published: November 2023

The article examines the principle of primacy of arbitration. It continued the doctrine of «competency of competence» and can be defined as an approach established by international legal obligations of Ukraine and special legislation on international commercial arbitration, according to which consideration of the issue on validity, effectiveness, and enforceability of an arbitration agreement must precede consideration of the corresponding claim in the state court, except for cases caused by clear disregard public order by such an agreement.

It has been proven that consideration by the economic court of an separate claim to invalidate the arbitration agreement goes beyond the permissible forms of state court intervention in commercial arbitration. It is justified that the issue of the invalidity of the arbitration agreement can be considered exclusively together with the claim for the protection of the violated/disputed/unrecognized subjective right or legitimate interest of the party to the agreement. However, even in such a case, the principle of primacy of arbitration must be observed. It is substantiated that the admissibility of expanded perception by state courts of the competence to consider claims about the validity of the arbitration agreement significantly limits the competence of commercial arbitrations and creates the risk of assigning Ukraine to jurisdictions unfriendly to arbitration, contradicting the experience of the leading countries of the world, in particular France, Germany, and Britain.

It is substantiated that the presentation of an independent lawsuit to the commercial court to declare the arbitration agreement invalid cannot be recognized as a proper and effective way of protecting a subjective right. It is emphasized that the right to apply to the state court with an independent demand to declare the arbitration agreement invalid should be interpreted in a restrictive way due to cases of abuse of procedural rights, when the sole purpose of initiating such cases is to delay the consideration of disputes and stop the arbitration proceedings.

Key words: alternative dispute resolution, international commercial arbitration, economic courts, economic procedure, arbitration clause, invalidity of arbitration agreement, principle of primacy of arbitration, doctrine of «competency of competence», public order.

African Literature and The Protest Novel: Neo-Nationalism in Ngugi Wa Thiong’o’s Weep Not Child
Authors: Ohia Ben-Fred
Published: November 2023

Every literary writer belongs to a particular society; he writes to reflect the conditions of that society. Therefore, African literature captures the African temperament. This paper attempts an analysis of Ngugi Wa Thiong’o’s Weep Not Child. Colonisation turns people into objects in order for the colonialists to facilitate their manipulation and the handing over power to Africans with a hope that this group of Africans will change the cause of events. The inability of these leaders to perform to expectation leading to a period of transition from colonialism to neo-colonialism necessitated the protests in most African novels. This paper explores the African literature written from the African point of view. It explores what inspires the Africans to protest through their literary works. The origin and trends in African literature from the ancient to the stage of protest is also discussed. The paper uses the eco-criticism framework to focus on the protest element in Ngugi’s Weep Not Child. It exposes the forceful acquisition and abuse of power on the social and political life of the entire citizens. It looks at Ngotho who protests against the inhumanisation and exploitation from the white counterpart, turning them into slaves. It further examines the critical analysis of the novel, viewing the elements that make the novel a protest fiction. Finally, the paper pins down the work of this great African writer as a protest based on its contents.

‘Growing a World Wonder’: The Great Green Wall and the History of Environmental Decline in the Sahel, 1450–2022
Authors: CROPPER JOHN
Published: November 2023

This article offers a historical critique of the Great Green Wall Initiative of the Sahel and the Sahara (GGW) – an audacious project to stop the southern encroachment of the Sahara Desert by constructing a wall of trees across the continent. By situating the GGW within the
longue durée
of the Sahel’s environmental history, it examines how the narratives of environmental decline that underpin the initiative are not only misguided but born out of the transatlantic slave trade, imperialism and colonialism, and the neoliberal development projects of the postcolonial period. In doing so, it argues that narratives of environmental decline have not only served as a dynamic framework to rationalise Western exploitation of the Sahel’s environments over time, but have obscured, or even silenced, the effective practices of dryland regeneration of Sahelian communities.

Eastern North Pacific gray whales are famed for their remarkable ecological history: from near extinction to recovery and from ‘devil-fish’ to ‘friendly whale’. This article critically examines the origins and development of the narrative framing of gray whales’ history as one in which the whales were long known as ‘devil-fish’, until they became ‘friendly whales’ in the 1970s. Drawing on archival sources from the mid-nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries, this article interrupts the premise of a smooth and linear transition from devil-fish to friendly whale. Instead, gray whale histories reveal much more complex and even contradictory human–whale encounters along the California coast. Throughout the time period examined, precursors of the familiar contemporary narrative of gray whale history emerged, each building on prior remembrances of gray whale pasts. More broadly, this article contributes to contemporary conversations in more-than-human historical studies about nonhuman agency, multispecies encounters, memory, and environmental histories of emotion.
No Body, No Crime? Vicariously Imagining Africa’s Arsenic Century: Bovines, Arsenic Poisoning and Multi-Species Toxic Histories in Southern Rhodesia (Colonial Zimbabwe), 1900–1940s
Authors: DORO ELIJAH
Published: November 2023

During the first half of the twentieth century, white settler farmers in colonial Zimbabwe raised incessant complaints and alarm over ‘mysterious’ and inexplicably frequent incidences of cattle mortalities. These mortalities were attributed to poisoning from careless handling of arsenical dips, ingestion of arsenic sprayed grass and grazing in veld impregnated with arsenic trioxide. The arsenic question occupied the attention of experts from the colonial Branch of Chemistry, toxicologists, bacteriologists, veterinary officials and white settler farmers in contested cattle-centred narratives. Within the framing of colonial toxic politics, cattle poisoning disproportionately received more elaborate scrutiny and attention than that of humans and other species. The colonial archive only affords limited and vague visibility to the toxic encounters of humans and non-bovine species. This paper seeks to transcend and interrogate bovine-centric poisoning discourses with which colonial sources are replete and to use existing cattle poisoning records to amplify and construct multi-species toxic histories connecting cattle, humans, landscapes and other species in a co-constituted narrative of arsenic toxicities. The paper employs vicarious imagination of experiences to reframe Africa’s ‘arsenic century’ and colonial toxic histories outside the body-centric script, and examines the intricate and complex chemical relations enmeshing cattle, humans and other species in ecosystems of mutual toxic vulnerabilities and slow chemical violence. The paper uses archival sources, toxicological reports from the Branch of Chemistry and veterinary records of cattle poisoning in colonial Zimbabwe.

Low- and middle-income groups face difficulties in homeownership because of the urbanisation and rising living standards, in which they rely heavily on the government’s housing provision. Yet, affordable housing provided in Malaysia has been repeatedly criticised as it is not up to homebuyers’ expectations and is not supported to reach sustainable goals. Hence, this research aims to investigate the influence of the sociodemographic background of the homebuyers on their preferences for sustainable affordable housing in Malaysia. The questionnaire was designed and responses were obtained from 316 low- and middle-income homebuyers. Spearman rank correlation and ordinal regression were used to investigate the association between homebuyers’ sociodemographic characteristics and their preference for sustainable affordable housing. Spearman correlation analysis revealed that gender, generation, marital status and monthly income were significantly correlated with sustainability criteria. The ordinal regression model reflected that stronger preferences for sustainable affordable housing were shown among female homebuyers, Gen Y and Baby Boomer homebuyers and married ones. The research findings close the gap between users (homebuyers) and the providers (developer/government) in the provision of affordable housing. Developers and the local authorities can provide sustainable affordable housing solutions that suit the needs of different homebuyers.

We present the evolution of the mass–metallicity (MZ) relation at z = 4–10 derived with 135 galaxies identified in JWST/NIRSpec data taken from the three major public spectroscopy programs of ERO, GLASS, and CEERS. Because there are many discrepancies between the flux measurements reported by the early ERO studies, we first establish our NIRSpec data reduction procedure for reliable emission-line flux measurements and errors, successfully explaining Balmer decrements with no statistical tensions thorough comparisons with the early ERO studies. Applying the reduction procedure to the 135 galaxies, we obtain emission-line fluxes for physical property measurements. We confirm that 10 out of the 135 galaxies with [O iii] λ4363 lines have electron temperatures of ≃(1.1–2.3) × 104 K, similar to lower-z star-forming galaxies, which can be explained by heating by young massive stars. We derive the metallicities of the 10 galaxies by a direct method and the rest of the galaxies with strong lines using the metallicity calibrations of Nakajima et al. applicable for these low-mass metal-poor galaxies, anchoring the metallicities with the direct-method measurements. We thus obtain the MZ relation and star formation rate (SFR)–MZ relation over z = 4–10. We find that there is a small evolution of the MZ relation from z ∼ 2–3 to z = 4–10, while interestingly the SFR–MZ relation shows no evolution up to z ∼ 8 but a significant decrease at z > 8 beyond the errors This SFR–MZ relation decrease at z > 8 may suggest a break of the metallicity equilibrium state via star formation, inflow, and outflow, while further statistical and local-baseline studies are needed for a conclusion.
Venir en réunion publique : Jaurès en « Rhône-Alpes »
Authors: Moulin Catherine
Published: November 2023

Le dernier meeting auquel Jaurès ait participé avant son assassinat, tenu à Vaise près de Lyon, met en lumière la place que tient le leader socialiste dans l’espace rhodanien et alpin. Cet article examine la fréquence des venues de Jaurès, mais aussi leurs aspects concrets : initiative, financement, public. Il s’agit de saisir par le bas la construction d’une mémoire jaurésienne régionale.
La conversion dans le Nouveau Testament – Une fausse proximité
Authors: Burnet Régis
Published: November 2023

Les textes du Nouveau Testament sont écrits au moment où le concept moderne de religion n’existe pas et où les relations avec les dieux sont pensées sur le modèle de la politique. La conversion signifie donc un changement de loyauté, un basculement d’alliance qui s’exprime plus souvent dans le langage de l’espace que dans celui de la psychologie.
La conversion personnelle − Participation à la conversion collective du peuple de Dieu
Authors: Cazala Philippe
Published: November 2023

Dans l’Ancien Testament comme dans le Nouveau, la conversion, tout en étant éminemment personnelle, suppose une prise de conscience collective ; elle suscite un peuple, et l’Église est le rassemblement de ceux qui, en entendant l’appel de Dieu, confessent simultanément leur péché et le salut opéré par le Christ.
Les conversions de Charles Péguy
Authors: Faguer Nicolas
Published: November 2023

Dans la vie de Péguy, « l’appel de la grâce » n’implique ni irruption soudaine, ni arrachement aux engagements passés, ni conformité totale aux normes de la vie ecclésiale. Elle se traduit par un lent et constant travail souterrain qui ouvre la personne à la direction d’un Autre.
Passer dans le Christ – La conversion chez le Père de Lubac
Authors: Lemaire Marie-Gabrielle
Published: November 2023

Contre toute apparence, la conversion constitue sans doute la clé de l’œuvre lubacienne. Le temps de la conversion n’y est pas cantonné dans l’individualité subjective mais est d’essence spirituelle et de nature ecclésiale : il s’agit d’un temps sacramentellement déterminé, investi par l’éternité des intentions divines, dont le rythme vital, toujours actuel, se trouve dans le passage de l’Ancien au Nouveau Testament.
Que ma joie demeure

Published: November 2023

Les quarante ans ou les quarante jours au désert ne sont pas le temps qui suit la conversion, le temps qui s’étire et qui use après l’instant fulgurant où tout a basculé. Ce désert qu’est notre vie est lui-même un temps de la conversion, et partant un temps de joie.
Analyse des parcellaires antiques. Approche méthodologique et étude de cas en Gaule du nord et en Bretagne romaine
Authors: Di Liberto Aurore

La structuration du paysage est un phénomène qui a toujours existé dès lors que l’Homme s’est sédentarisé, qu’il s’est approprié le territoire et donc a modifié son environnement, que ce soit pour l’agriculture et l’élevage en milieu rural ou pour l’habitat et les centres de pouvoir en milieu urbain ou aggloméré. Le milieu est façonné physiquement et répond à des normes telles que la propriété et l’usage du sol. Ainsi, on sait par les écrits des agrimensores , que les Romains posaient rigoureusement les limites des terres notamment lorsqu’ils installaient une colonie sur un nouveau territoire. On connaît alors les normes imposées et le module métrique de base, l’ actus . Pour autant, ce mode d’établissement n’était pas systématique et devait probablement s’adapter à l’environnement local, voire garder tout ou partie d’un système préexistant. Si les textes anciens fixent un cadre théorique de cette administration, ils ne décrivent pas la réalité du terrain. Le recours aux archives du sol, notamment par l’archéologie, permet d’en mesurer l’application dans l’environnement, c’est-à-dire d’étudier les traces concrètes de la parcellisation ancienne. Par ailleurs, la morphologie parcellaire et la modification de l’environnement répondent à une évolution sur le temps long et à des échelles variables. Il est alors difficile de reconnaître et d’appréhender le visage de ces territoires aux époques anciennes. Ainsi, une branche récente de l’archéologie, nommée archéogéographie, permet aujourd’hui d’utiliser diverses techniques telles que l’analyse régressive, afin de mieux interpréter les différentes structures fossoyées découvertes et de les situer dans un environnement plus large, dépassant la seule échelle du site archéologique.
