Hydrodynamic impact and power production of tidal turbines in a storm surge barrier
Authors: O'Mahoney Thomas , De Fockert Anton , Bijlsma Arnout C. , De Haas Pieter
Published: December 2020

To estimate the impact on energy production and environment of tidal turbines placed in the Eastern Scheldt Storm Surge Barrier a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study has been carried out on the additional head differences induced by the turbines. The CFD model focusses on a single gate opening of the Storm Surge Barrier and includes half of the adjoining gates on either side. In this 40 m wide Gate a 1.2 MW array existing of five Tocardo T2 tidal turbines has been installed as part of a demonstration project in 2015. Transient computations of the barrier with and without the turbine array were carried out for a range of quasi stationary tidal phases. The turbines are resolved in detail as rotating equipment: real-time rotation of the turbine blades (involving the displacement of the mesh nodes in an unsteady setting) is implemented, and torque and thrust for the prescribed speed of rotation is provided as output. The results for velocity, power and thrust are compared with field experiments to validate the model. Based on these computations an estimate of the effect of turbines on the discharge capacity of the storm surge barrier is given. This information will be used to parameterize the tidal turbines in the far-field hydrodynamic model of Eastern Scheldt estuary for the ultimate assessment of the effect of tidal turbines on energy production and on the environment.

Bridging the gap: Improving CASPer test confidence and competency for underrepresented minorities in medicine through interactive peer-assisted learning
Authors: Shipeolu Lolade , Matthieu Johanne , Mahmood Farhan , Okafor Ike
Published: December 2020

Background: The Computer-based Assessment for Sampling Personal Characteristics (CASPer) is a situational judgement test (SJT) adopted by medical schools to assess applicants’ interpersonal skills. CASPer applicants must compose their responses to ethical dilemmas, thereby highlighting the applicant’s rationale for ethical decision-making. Minority applicants usually lack access to a network of individuals who can offer guidance and expertise on ethical decision-making. As such, this study investigated the impact of a CASPer coaching program designed for minority applicants.

Methods: A free online intervention was designed to help minority applicants prepare for the CASPer test. The program consisted of 35 learners and three medical student tutors. Important attributes of the 4-week program included free access to a medical ethics book, feedback provision to in-class and homework student responses, and facilitation of a mock CASPer. Course feedback was collected. Additionally, a pre and post-program survey was administered to assess learners’ competence and confidence surrounding CASPer test-taking.

Results: Our pre and post-program survey showed significant student improvement in familiarity with the test, increased competence, confidence and preparedness, as well as reduced anxiety (p < 0.05).

Conclusions: Through peer-to-peer teaching and access to medical student mentors, our program addresses socioeconomic barriers that several minority applicants face when applying to medical school.
ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ФОРМУВАННЯ ПОПИТУ У МОДЕЛЮВАННІ ЛАНЦЮГІВ ПОСТАВОК ЗЕРНОВИХ КУЛЬТУР
Authors: КОТЕНКО Вікторія
Published: December 2020

Інтенсивний розвиток аграрного сектору України за останні спричинив зміни у логістиці зернових культур. Попит на зерно та пов'язану з ним діяльність формує попит на його транспортування. Оцінити попит на сільськогосподарські перевезення необхідно для аналізу транспортної політики та прийняття рішень про господарську діяльність перевізників.
У статті розглянуто особливості формування попиту у моделях транспортування зернових культур вітчизняних науковців.
Імітаційна модель дозволяє визначити параметри автомобільного парку для вивчення попиту на транспортні перевезення сільськогосподарських товарів, на основі оцінки заявок на перевезення, що може бути використаним на етапі транспортування «індивідуальне сільське господарство-елеватор».
Модель нейронних мереж надає можливість зробити раціональним прийняття управлінських рішень та сприяти інтелектуалізації логістики ланцюгів поставок з метою мінімізації операційних витрат для перевезення вантажу. Тобто планувати та негайно виконувати розподіл залежно від попиту на вантаж. Ця модель враховує такі параметри як сезонність або нерівномірність перевезень, рух транспортних засобів та інфраструктуру залізниці. Особливо доцільним використання цієї моделі буде на етапі транспортування «елеватор-лінійний елеватор/морський термінал» із залученням залізничного транспорту.
Особливістю нечіткої моделі управління є те, що вхідні параметри описуються не кількісним значенням, а певною терм-множиною. При цьому кількісні характеристики представляються нечітко та у вигляді лінгвістичних змінних.
Дослідження попиту на вантажні перевезення дозволить підвищити ефективність на різних етапах доставки. Кожна наведена модель має особливий підхід до дослідження попиту та прогнозування перевезень у аграрному секторі. Проте створення уніфікованої моделі прогнозування попиту на перевезення сприятиме раціоналізації прийняття управлінських рішень та мінімізації витрат на кожному з етапів транспортування зернових культур,  що сприяє подальшим дослідженням.

Проведено аналіз основних тенденцій розвитку ринку вантажних і пасажирських перевезень, досліджено базові фактори, що впливають на розвиток транспортних підприємств. Виконано огляд економічної активності у транспортній галузі країни. Досліджено основні залежності, динаміку та структурні особливості ринку пасажирських і вантажних перевезень, а також тенденції розвитку ринку транспортної логістики включаючи пасажирські і вантажні потоки за видами транспорту. Встановлено, що основними замовниками транспортних послуг є підприємства дорожньої та будівельної галузей, а також аграрні холдинги, в основному, виробники продукції рослинництва в сільськогосподарському секторі, що у комплексі забезпечило збільшення обсягів перевезення вантажів автомобільним і залізничним транспортом. Протягом п’яти крайніх років частка автомобільного транспорту в транспортній системі країни прогнозовано продовжує зростати на основі позитивного тренду збільшення попиту на перевезення вантажів для вказаних галузей, отже матиме місце тривалий динамічний розвиток транспортної галузі України в цілому. Ринок логістичних послуг та споживчий ринок мають пов’язані напрями розвитку, встановлено, що вони є збалансованими, в цілому ринок автомобільних та залізничних перевезень має стабільну тенденцію до зростання при можливому зниженні темпів. Результати дослідження можуть бути застосовані при виконанні моделювання матеріальних потоків на ринку перевезень вантажів, а також пасажирів, на основі результатів дослідження факторів, які впливають на розвиток транспортних підприємств країни, що якісно впливатиме на вдосконалення чи актуалізацію інструментарію планування діяльності транспортно – експедиційних, логістичних, перевізних підприємств.

Незважаючи на те, що комфорт є одним із найважливіших факторів формування попиту на громадський транспорт, чинником зручності часто нехтується при проектуванні транспортних мереж, а також при оцінці експлуатаційних показників. В міських пасажирських перевезеннях, зокрема для середніх міст, вибір пасажирами виду транспорту для поїздок залежить, окрім тривалості подорожі, також від множини важливих показників. Для покращення розуміння кількісних та якісних показників при використанні громадського транспорту транспортна послуга повинна бути розроблена так, щоб вона відповідала рівню очікуваних клієнтами послуг, що забезпечить оптимальну капіталізацію при реалізації транспортної послуги. Дане дослідження є основою формування політики перевезень пасажирів громадським транспортом з позиції максимального комфорту населення з розробкою основ вимірювання сприйняття найважливіших факторів зручності громадського транспорту, мінімального дискомфорту і максимальної безпеки. На базі проведених натурних досліжень з застосуванням визначників дискомфорту і вагових коефіцієнтів визначено кількісні показники сприйняття комфорту в мережі громадського транспорту м. Тернополя, що може бути використано для прогнозування поведінки пасажирів в користуванні міським громадським транспортом. Визначено, що сумарний рівень комфортності в системі громадського транспорту м.Тернополя є змінним в залежності від багатьох факторів, найважливішим з яких є щільність пасажирів в салоні транспортного засобу натовпу в години пік, хоча для оптимального проектування мереж громадського транспорту доцільно враховувати всю множину показників комфорту. Результати дослідження є основою розуміння відношення пасажирів і сприйняття комфорту при послугах міського громадського транспорту, їх може бути використано як інструмент при плануванні і експлуатації транспортних мереж середніх міст.

Published: December 2020

Several approaches have been used to assess protein-energy wasting syndrome, such as clinical evaluation, biochemical nutritional markers, anthropometric measurements, but Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) techniques hold a central place in clinical settings. The aim of this study is to report our clinical experience with BIA and the correlations between biochemical nutritional markers and BIA nutritional parameters in hemodialysis (HD) patients associating or free of chronic liver disease. This cross-sectional observational study included 69 HD patients divided into two groups: 33 with chronic liver disease (CLD+) versus 36 chronic liver disease-free (CLD-) from one HD unit in Romania. Serum albumin (SA), serum creatinine (SCr) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were obtained from the HD arterial line immediately before the HD session and by BIA the body composition including total body water (TBW), total body fat (TBF), lean fat free mass(LFFM), body muscular mass (BMM), malnutrition index and body protein reserve (PR) were assessed. No significant differences between groups were found in BCM, BMM, PR and TBF (p = 0.92, p = 0.60, p = 0.907, and p = 0.634, respectively). Malnutrition index had a significantly higher mean value in HD-CLD(+) patients (p = 0.00). HD-CLD(-) group showed a strong correlation between SA and SCr and BCM, BMM (kg), LFFM (kg) and body PR (kg) (r=.48, r=.50, r=.44, r=.50; resp. r=.42, r=.40, r=.36, r=.42). In HD-CLD(+) patients, a significant positive correlation was found between SA and SCr and LFFM and body PR (r=.37, r=.35; resp. r=.44, r=.35). Discussion: BIA is one of the most accurate techniques for assessing nutritional status and should be regularly used in clinical practice along with biochemical nutritional markers in HD patients. Although the protein metabolism depends to a large extent on liver function, CLD cannot be considered as having a significant impact on nutritional status in HD patients.

Published: December 2020

Lead and cadmium may affect the health of ecosystems and of the consumers of food itemscontaminated with these metals, which are widely used in several human activities and are, in addition, among the most important products of Mexican mining activities. Agriculture is the main activity in the State of Sinaloa, and for this reason pesticides and fertilizers are important sources of contamination with both metals. In this article we revise the possible natural sources and the main human activities which may contribute these metalsto the coastal waters of the Mexican State of Sinaloa, and summarize the results of the investigations of the latest two decades on the lead and cadmium contents of the edible tissues of several aquatic organisms of its coastal water bodies. The highest cadmium concentrations were those found in the Altata-Ensenada del Pabellónlagoonal system, possibly as a result of the agricultural activities of the Culiacán plains. Lead concentrations in bivalves seem to indicate a tendency to lower values, possibly due to the use of unleaded gasoline, although this does not coincide with the values found in shrimp muscles. In addition, all lead values are above the level indicating the presence of environmental impact. The cadmium content of some bivalve exceed the level of risk for human health, whereas the lead and cadmium contents of fish and crustacean edible tissues are below the level of concern.

All the fractions were submitted to antibacterial assays. The major metabolite from an anti-tuberculosis fraction (MIC = 100 µg mL–1) was purified and identified as  1-octodecanol (1). The anti-tuberculosis activity was attributed to 1 with bases in previous reports. In addition, clerosterol (2) was obtained by crystallization from an active fraction against Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus (MIC = 125 and 250 µg mL–1, respectively). Both structures were established by interpretation and comparison of infrared and 1H NMR spectroscopic data. In contrast with other studies, 2 showed a nonsignificant cytotoxicity against the cell line PC-3 (% GI = 21.05 ± 0.3 at 50 µg mL–1). To our knowledge, these metabolites are reported for the first time from C. amplivesiculatum, and this is one of very rare reports of saturated long-chain alcohols isolated from chlorophytes.

Redefinition of Ceratoperidinium and Pseliodinium (Ceratoperidiniaceae, Dinophyceae) Including Reassignment of Gymnodinium fusus, Cochlodinium helix and C. pirum to Pseliodinium
Authors: Gomez Fernando
Published: December 2020

The dinoflagellate genus Cochlodinium is polyphyletic, and several bloom-forming species in this genus, such as Cochlodinium helix and C. convolutum, are in need of reclassification. The molecular data revealed that the polymorphic species Gymnodinium fusus (=Ceratoperidinium falcatum, Gyrodinium caudatum, Gyrodinium falcatum, Gyrodinium sugashimanii, Pseliodinium vaubanii) is closely related to Cochlodinium helix/C. convolutum. There are significant morphological differences among the type species of Ceratoperidinium, C. margalefii, and the aforementioned species. The recent proposal of the genus Kirithra reinforces the need of the generic split between C. margalefii and Gymnodinium fusus/C. helix/C. convolutum, instead of placing all the species under the genus Ceratoperidinium. Pseliodinium is considered the earliest available generic name, and new combinations of Pseliodinium are proposed for Gymnodinium fusus, Cochlodinium helix and C. pirum (the latter considered co-specific with C. convolutum)

Authors: Sergeeva Nelli G. , Zaika Victor E. , Anikeeva Oksana V.
Published: December 2020

A research program to study Black Sea meiobenthos yielded extensive data on foraminifera with either a soft or a hard shell. Samples were taken in different parts of the Sea, ranging from shallow bays to the layer of constant hypoxia over-lying sulphidic waters. A review of new information on the species composition of single-chambered foraminifera (i.e. monothalamids, sometimes termed ‘allogromiids’) is presented. The data on the ratio of the number of soft-shelled monothalamids and multi-chambered hard-shelled foraminifera in shallow water on the shelf and in the layer of permanent hypoxia are given. It is shown that in many habitats the number of single-chambered species is higher than total number of multi-chambered taxa. Monothalamids are more resistant to hypoxia, they are found closer to the boundary of sulfidic waters, and they occupy deeper sediment layers.

SYNTHESIS OF THE BULGARIAN PROTOZOOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS (THE ANTARCTIC)
Authors: Golemansky Vassil
Published: December 2020

Within the range of the Bulgarian Antarctic Program (1987-2010) some parasitological investigations on the coccidian parasites of 3 penguin species from South Shetland Islands (Livingston and St George Islands) were conducted, namely: Pygoscelis antarctica, P. papua and P. adeliae. Three coccidian species were found, one of which was described as a new species: Eimeria pygosceli Golemansky, 2003. It was isolated from the fecal samples of all 3 penguin species, living at South Shetland Islands. The other not identified coccidian’s were of the genera Eimeria and Isopspora. (Table 1).  The great number of coccidian’s oocysts in some of the examined birds (from 80 – 220 oocysts in one microscopic field) suggest for their pathogenic role on the penguin’s population.As a result of our studies on some soil, moss and freshwater habitats from Livingston Island a total of 48 rhizopods were found. Three of them were naked amoebae of  the genera Hartmanella, Thecamoeba and Vannella and the other 45 species were testate amoebae of 17 genera. Data on their occurrence frequency (pF) and dominance frequency (DF) were given (Table 2). The  research on the marine interstitial testate amoebae from the supralittoral of the Antarctic region of Chile and Livingston Island shows the presence of 17 species of psammobiotic and psammophilous testate amoebae (Table 3).

DIGITALIZATION OF CONTAINER TRANSPORT BY RAIL AS A NEW STAGE OF LOGISTICS DEVELOPMENT IN RUSSIA
Authors: Artamonova Maria Y. , Zemlyankin Dmitry A.
Published: December 2020

The work is devoted to solving the problem of the insufficient level of digitalization of logistics industry, in particular, container transportation on Russian railways. The aim of the work is to determine the level of development of IT integration in railway transport based on consideration of one of the most modern trends - cloud services or “marketplaces. Today, in order to maintain positions in the cargo transportation market, it is necessary to develop digital services. Russian rail transportation market has always been conservative. To change it, it is necessary to introduce innovative developments actively: new IT services that are not on the container market yet. The paper proposes to work out the issue of using mathematical modeling of each cell of the transport process, including the collection of transportation video analytics, to create a "transport marketplace" from various data groups based on cloud technology. The implementation of these proposals will help to track cargo, speed up logistics processes and become a new driver for business, thereby saving time and money on paperwork and storage, faster customs operations with cargo.
CHANNEL DEFORMATIONS FORECAST AND FEATURES OF FLOODPLAIN QUARRIES OF NON-METALLIC CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS DEVELOPMENT IN MEANDERING RIVERBEDS BASED ON SAFE NAVIGATION CONDITIONS (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE BELAYA RIVER)
Authors: Sitnov Aleksandr N. , Voronina Yulia E. , Shestova Marina V.
Published: December 2020

Floodplain quarries of non-metallic construction materials (NCM) have a minimal impact on the water regime and navigable conditions of the reservoir in the area of their location. However, the development of such deposits has its own characteristics, especially in case of their location in meandering beds of large navigable rivers. On the example of floodplain quarry located at the mouth of the Belaya river (1757-1763 km), development conditions for such facilities based on ensuring navigation safety were considered; on the basis of changes’ dynamics in the bends’ main parameters the channel state assessment and fluvial deformations forecast were made. It was concluded that it is possible to extract sand and gravel in the studied section of the Belaya river, provided that navigation safety issues are resolved in a comprehensive manner. First of all, it refers to meander straightening and transferring the ship's course to a new capital slot.
