The artefact from Kwiatków: the earliest spur featuring a zoomorphic motif from the slavic lands
Authors: Piotrowska Magdalena , Podolska-Rutkowska Irena , Rutkowski Wojciech
Published: September 2024

In 2014, a fragment of a spur was discovered at the site in Kwiatków, Turek District, Brudzew Commune, within section G75, in mechanical layer I. This artefact likely originated from an early medieval burial ground located nearby, with its original site possibly altered due to intensive farming. The presented spur exemplifies extraordinary craftsmanship. This paper is a case study, the purpose of which is to examine the title artefact, while referencing other analogous discoveries. The uniqueness of this artefact lies in the absence of direct parallels to other objects featuring horse motifs of similar chronology. Consequently, an effort has been made to compare the spurs from Kwiatków with those of the Lutomiersk type, specimens with hooked fastenings, and artefacts unrelated to equestrian equipment. Furthermore, an analysis of the ornamentation, including its significance and manufacturing technique, has been conducted. The artefact has also undergone laboratory testing. The results obtained from XRF spectrometry, carried out at the Conservation and Dating Laboratory of the Institute of Archaeology, University of Łódź, were correlated with the results of studies of spurs from Pomerania, Silesia, the upper Elbe River area, and Moravia. Specialised examinations of the Kwiatków spur revealed the presence of zinc as an alloying element. This paper also delves into the manufacturing techniques of the Kwiatków artefact, utilising current findings on the specificity of early medieval crafts. This spur contributes to a collection of similar discoveries associated with the products of communities inhabiting the West Slavic lands. Fragmentarily preserved and lacking contextual dating, the Kwiatków spur has no precise analogues in Polish lands to date. An attempt to classify the artefact resulted in its assignment to technotype I according to J. Żak, suggesting a chronology between the 8th and 9th centuries, corresponding to the pottery found at the Kwiatków site. The presence of these materials and of the title artefact, potentially linked to an early medieval cemetery, significantly enhances our understanding of this period in history.
The Animal-Human Relationship in War
Authors: Hess Earl J.
Published: September 2024

Issues germane to animal history and military history intersect in the study of cavalry horses and their riders during the American Civil War. Animal historians should understand that warfare created a very different experience for horses than was true of their peacetime experience. Military historians should understand that horses were not just tools of war but sentient creatures with needs and emotions of their own. Weaponized equines exercised a degree of agency by exerting some control over their situations. The military system and battle severely stressed horses and men. Repetitive riding affected cavalrymen and horses in ways that resulted in serious health problems. Nevertheless, the war experience fostered bonds of affection between animals and humans in many cases while leading to callous abuse in many others. It also led to an enhanced appreciation for animals among cavalrymen who had bonded with their mounts, possibly promoting awareness of animal rights after the conflict.

Published: September 2024

The growing importance of online learning in teacher education highlights the need to assess its impact on teacher professionalism. This study examines the effects of online learning within the in-service Teacher Professional Education (TPE) program at a State Islamic Higher Education institution in Indonesia. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research investigates online learning practices, curriculum adaptation, instructor preparation, and professionalism development. The quantitative analysis shows a significant, moderate correlation between online learning and teacher professionalism (R = 0.573), accounting for 32.9% of the variance (RÂ² = 0.329), with a high statistical significance (p < 0.001). Qualitative results support these findings, emphasizing the role of relevant course materials, learning tool development, and instructor feedback in enhancing professionalism. Curriculum adaptation and thorough preparation by lecturers and mentor teachers are also identified as critical to the program's success. While challenges such as limited interaction and internet access persist, online learning has proven to improve teacher professionalism by offering greater accessibility and flexibility. This study concludes that online learning, when implemented with the right strategies, can significantly elevate teacher professionalism. The implications for Islamic education emphasize the potential of online platforms to strengthen teacher development and educational quality.
AIDIP methodology for integrating standardization into collaborative research projects – Focus on smart and resilient cities.
Authors:   , Lindner René
Published: September 2024

The European Commission fosters the integration of standardization in its Framework Programs since a decade to disseminate and exploit the project results, thus increasing the projects’ impacts to transfer research results into practice. Especially complex topics such as city resilience need urgently research results to face the increasing hazards they are facing. However, there is a lack of a common approach for integrating standardization in collaborative research projects. Furthermore, these projects have the difficulty to engage the relevant stakeholders properly and to foster the application of the resulting standards. This research addresses these issues by proposing the AIDIP methodology, which includes the Analysis of standardization landscape, the Identification of end-user needs and standardization potentials, the Definition of a standardization strategy, the Initiation of standardization activities, and the Promotion and exploitation of conducted standardization work. In addition, the research showed that standardization supports the engagement of project stakeholders and that gathered factors to support the application of standards at city level are appropriate.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is a gold standard in treatment patients with biliary obstructions, ensuring transpapillary drainage - anatomical. It is an established method for treatment of patients with benign and malignant biliary obstruction. In the case of ineffectiveness of transpapillary drainage, the alternative is still percutaneous drainage of the bile ducts or surgical drainage. The development of advanced endoscopic ultrasonography techniques has enabled extra-anatomical approach to the bile ducts, making it possible not only to perform endoscopic anastomoses of the bile ducts with the digestive tract, but also to obtain extra-anatomic transpapillary access. This is an alternative to the existing methods of biliary drainage in the case of ERCP ineffectiveness.

Pain, impairment, medication use and health-related quality of life of retired professional rugby players
Authors: Le Roux Johan , Janse van Rensburg Christa , Den Hollander Steve , Kerkhoffs Gino , Gouttebarge Vincent
Published: September 2024

Background: Rugby is a physically demanding sport with a high injury rate. Professional male rugby players have a notably greater risk of sustaining injuries that require hospitalisation or surgery than male athletes from non-contact sports. Retired elite male rugby players experience physical and mental health conditions as well as varying levels of pain, negatively impacting their quality of life. Retired rugby players could use medication or substances as a coping mechanism to deal with chronic pain and a lower quality of life. However, research is scarce on how retired rugby players manage pain and how this affects their quality of life.
Objectives: This study aimed to understand joint pain and impairment, mental and physical quality of life, and pain medication use in retired professional male rugby players.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a questionnaire completed by retired professional male rugby players. Joint pain and impairment were explored through three questions, health-related quality of life was assessed through the PROMIS-GH, and medication use was explored through 12 questions.
Results: Retired rugby players (N=142) reported higher scores than matched controls (N=49) for joint pain and impairment, including significantly higher scores for joint impairments for activities of daily living (p=0.047). The global mental health scores of retired rugby players were significantly lower compared to matched controls (p=0.043) and the global physical health scores were also lower in retired rugby players. Most retired rugby players reported not using prescription pain medication (75%) or over-the-counter pain medication (56%).
Conclusion: Professional rugby careers have a considerable impact on the joint health and overall well-being of retired players, resulting in unique challenges. The findings of this study emphasise the need for specific after-career support for challenges faced by retired rugby players.
First Data on the Structure and Lithological Composition of the Kola Fjord (Bay) Deposits Section
Authors: EV Shipilov , EA Kovalchuk
Published: September 2024

Studying the materials from drilling of engineering-geological wells and other data the structure of a sedimentary cover of the Kola fjord on its total thickness is for the first time lighted. The characteristics of the structure and lithological composition of a section of deposits, and the main forms of a relief of the underlying crystalline substrate are provided. Situations of the formation of deposits and the graben structure of the gulf are considered. It is noted that the deglaciation has served as the trigger mechanism that has started processes of the differentiated block uplift, development of fracture, and a fault formation which has caused initial “exogenous” phases of neotectonic destruction of crust. The horizontal movements have led to the stretching of the earth’s crust and separation of blocks with a graben formation in Kola Bay according to the authors with the influence of stress fields coming from developing young oceanic spreading basins.

This study produced a composite using melon shell ash as reinforcement on recycled Aluminium waste cans matrix. The melon shell particulate additions to the matrix were done in wt.% of 0, 10, 5, 15 and 20. The mechanical behaviour of the composite demonstrates that the tensile values increased as the particulate addition increased to 15% wt. to reach a maximum of 113MPa but dropped at the 20% addition. The impact energy on the other hand increases marginally at 5% particulate addition and increases slightly higher with the addition of reinforcement of 10% wt to attain a maximum value of 77J. However, a further increase in the melon shell ash to 15% wt and 20% wt reduced the impact energy. The hardness values of the composites at all the % wt. additions were generally higher than that of the unreinforced Aluminium with the peak hardness value of 57.2BHN obtained at 10% wt. addition. The density of the composites decreases as the % wt. of the melon shell ash particles increases. The improved mechanical properties and lower density of the composites achieved in this study are significant factors in developing strong and lightweight engineering materials for industrial applications.

Authors: Brito Alana Aíres da Rocha , Passaro Angelo , Da Costa Felipe Jean , De Lima Milton Sergio Fernandes
Published: September 2024

This work consists of a theoretical-analytical modeling using applications of intelligent materials, called shape-memory alloy (SMA), in scramjet engines varying the speed from Mach 7 to 14. Through the shockwave relationships, the angles, the Mach number and the recoil distance at the leading edge of the cowl were found out, to select the SMA that has the best deformation recovery. After using the theoretical Auricchio model, the superelastic behavior of the alloys was observed for different elastic properties in the austenite and martensite phases to perform a computational simulation, using the finite element method in Solver ANSYS, in order to represent the performance of the material in a simpler way.

Published: September 2024

The contamination on the surface of objects caused by: fungi, microbes, bacteria and viruses (and also coronavirus) can be solved using UV rays and/or ozone gas.  For this reason, a UV-Ozone reactor apparatus with low cost was mounted to test two different types of HID (high intensity discharge) lamps: high pressure mercury vapor lamp (HPMVL) and metal halide lamp (MHL), both with nominal power of 400 watts and E-40 (base, screw) were studied as possible method of disinfection. Each lamp used the respective electromagnetic ballasts and both were manufactured by Osram Company. These lamps have two bulb types: the outer bulb which was removed and it is responsible for filtering the ultraviolet wavelengths and the internal bulb (where there is mercury, argon or metal halide confined at high pressure) that is the main source of ultraviolet rays. The complete apparatus was assembled using: aluminum reflector (used as a chamber), two microcomputer fans and a wooden base covered by an aluminum foil. A rubber strip was placed at the edge of the reflector for better adhesion on the aluminum foil (for better confinement ozone gas). The ozone concentration inside the reactor was measured with a monitor, the temperatures were measured near lamps with a thermocouple and a spectroradiometer with optical fiber was used to obtain the wavelengths. The results revealed to the elapsed time of 2 minutes a maximum peak of ozone concentration of 23 ppm for LVMAP, while the MHL presented 4.5 ppm only. The temperature obtained by HPMVL was lower with 31.5 ºC, while the MHL presented 48.0 ºC.  The HPMVL presented higher amount of wavelengths at the ranges: UV-A, UV-B and UV-C, while the MHL presented only UV-A. For these reasons, it is suggested to be most promissory the use of HPMVL to combat the coronavirus and other pathogenic microorganisms.

Peculiarities of anxiety among Ukrainian military personnel
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, OSADCHUK Ruslan
Published: September 2024

The study of anxiety among the military is the most urgent problem of today. Military personnel bear a huge responsibility, their work is associated with significant danger to life, physical and mental overload. Prolonged exposure to such conditions can lead to an increase in anxiety. High levels of anxiety have a negative impact on the nature of their work and the performance of their duties. That is why the purpose of this article is to review the latest research on anxiety among Ukrainian military personnel. The following research methods were used: analysis, synthesis, comparison, systematization and generalization of psychological data on the research problem. The analysis allowed us to draw the following conclusions. Before the full-scale invasion in 2022, anxiety among the military was average, with no significant differences depending on the experience and time of involvement in the JFO. After the aggression in 2022, anxiety increased, exceeding the level during the COVID-19 pandemic. Male servicemen generally have lower levels of anxiety compared to female servicemen. The number of children of military personnel is negatively correlated with anxiety – the more children military personnel have, the less anxious the military personnel are. Volunteers in the territorial defense forces and those in the reserve had lower levels of anxiety compared to regular army personnel, even though they all participated in combat. Servicemen who are preparing to be deployed to a combat zone demonstrate an average level of situational anxiety. For servicemen who have been in combat for a long time, situational anxiety can develop into personal anxiety. Anxiety complicates the process of military rehabilitation, affects the emotional sphere and disrupts behavioral regulation. In some cases, it can lead to suicidal behavior.
Technological line for the production of sunflower cake
Authors: Priporov Igor E.
Published: September 2024

BACKGROUND: The results of the study conducted to increase the shelf life of sunflower cake by justifying the optimal operating parameters of the ozonizer in the line of the sunflower cake production are presented. Studies of the processing of sunflower cake with an ozone-air mixture at optimal operating parameters, such as its concentration, the duration of its processing and the intensity of the high-frequency field, have been conducted.
AIM: Increasing of the long-term storage of protein feed by improving the basic design parameters of the device for its production.
METHODS: Resulting from the conducted theoretical research, the technological line for the protein feed production was developed according to the patent for the invention of the Russian Federation No. 2706188. To determine the optimal operating parameters of the device in the sunflower cake production line, which affect its shelf life, the design of experiment theory was used.
RESULTS: A regression equation in coded values, characterizing the effect of the concentration of the ozone-air mixture, the duration of the sunflower cake treatment and the intensity of the high-frequency field on the sunflower cake shelf life, is obtained. The analysis of the obtained mathematical model of the processing process is performed.
CONCLUSION: Experimental studies of the developed line for the production of sunflower cake with quality control of its treatment with an ozone-air mixture have shown that the sunflower cake shelf life depends on the ozone-air mixture concentration and the duration of treatment of the sunflower cake, as well as on the intensity of the high-frequency field. At the same time, with a decrease in the ozone-air mixture concentration, the duration of treatment of the sunflower cake and the intensity of the high-frequency field during the treatment increase. In the area of low concentration, increased duration up to 120 s and intensity up to 15250 V/m, the shelf life of the cake increases. It is reasonable to process sunflower cake with the ozone-air mixture to increase its shelf life from 3 to 5.45 months according to the GOST 80-96 using the developed line (patent RF 2706188) at a concentration of 23.03 mg/m3, processing time of 134 s and a high-frequency field strength of 17374 V/m.
Investigation on ejector design for CO2 heat pump applications us-ing Dymola
Authors: Metsue Antoine , Bartosiewicz Yann , Poncet Sébastien
Published: September 2024

In this paper, the Dymola modelling tool is used to study the influence of ejector design onto the whole heat pump cycle working with carbon dioxide. The cycle is built using the components provided by the TIL Modelica library. It is found that the ejector models in TIL are quite limited, namely by their inability to properly capture the on-design plateau and rapid decrease in performance in off-design operation. Therefore, an in-house state-of-the-art ejector model, originally developed in Python, is implemented as a Dymola object. This model is then calibrated onto CO2 experimental data. The operation of a simple CO2 heat pump system is investigated, with focus on the ejector sizing at fixed geometry. It is found that there exists an ejector size that maximises the COP of the cycle. Furthermore, critical ejector pressure is not reached at this optimum COP point; the ejector is operating well under the on-design regime.
Exploring Why Men With Binge-Spectrum Eating Disorders Do Not Seek Therapy (and How to Get Them There)
Authors:   , Sonnenblick Ross Matthew , Manasse Stephanie M
Published: September 2024

Most men with binge-spectrum eating disorders (BSEDs) never receive psychological treatment for their conditions, often because they do not seek it. Furthermore, research on BSEDs typically includes disproportionately low numbers of men. Understanding men's perceptions of masculinity, EDs, and therapy could inform efforts by researchers and clinicians to engage this overlooked and underserved group. In the present study, 15 men (53% White, 80% heterosexual, age range 26-69) who had never gone to therapy for their BSEDs provided semi-structured qualitative responses to questions about masculinity, EDs, and therapy. These men also offered input about potential strategies to engage men like them in psychological treatment for BSEDs. Reflexive thematic analysis identified eight key themes (with four pertaining to men's perceptions of key constructs and four regarding a public-health initiative to increase men's awareness of BSEDs and interest in seeking therapy). (1) Men did not recognize their EDs. (2) Men stated that serious eating problems cause physical, not just mental, health consequences. (3) Even though many of these men had been in therapy, and even though they called their eating problems serious, they had often not considered therapy for their BSEDs. (4) The men were very supportive of other men going to therapy for their EDs, even though they had not gone themselves. (5) Serious messages convey the seriousness of BSEDs. (6) The ideal message would be simple and relatable and persuade men that seeking therapy makes them more manly, not less. (7) Men's intersectional identities shape their reasons for not pursuing therapy. (8) Men expressed spontaneous excitement about a messaging campaign to raise awareness of disordered eating in men. These findings indicate that societal expectations and a lack of information (about both BSEDs and therapy's role in treating them) prevent many men from seeking treatment. A multifaceted public-health campaign could address that knowledge gap by using some of the above principles. Ideally, the recruitment and promotional strategies suggested here could be examined empirically so that BSED research can enroll more men, clinicians can attract men with BSEDs to their services, and men with BSEDs can receive much-needed care for their mental health.
SARSNet—A Novel CNN Approach for SARWater Body Segmentation
Authors:   School of Electronic and Information Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing, China, Kamara Alhassan A.
Published: September 2024

This paper presents the SARSNet architecture, developed to address the growing challenges in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) deep learning-based automatic water body extraction. Such a task is riddled with significant challenges, encompassing issues like cloud interference, scarcity of annotated dataset, and the intricacies associated with varied topography. Recent strides in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and multispectral segmentation techniques offer a promising avenue to address these predicaments. In our research, we propose a series of solutions to elevate the process of water body segmentation. Our proposed solutions span several domains, including image resolution enhancement, refined extraction techniques tailored for narrow water bodies, self-balancing of the class pixel level, and minority class-influenced loss function, all aimed at amplifying prediction precision and streamlining computational complexity inherent in deep neural networks. The framework of our approach includes the introduction of a multichannel Data-Fusion Register, the incorporation of a CNN-based Patch Adaptive Network augmentation method, and the integration of class pixel level balancing and the Tversky loss function. We evaluated the performance of the model using the Sentinel-1 SAR electromagnetic signal dataset from the Earth flood water body extraction competition organized by the artificial intelligence department of Microsoft. In our analysis, our suggested SARSNet was compared to well-known semantic segmentation models, and a comprehensive assessment demonstrates that SARSNet consistently outperforms these models in all data subsets, including training, validation, and testing sets.

Published: September 2024

Situações de incêndio nas edificações causam efeitos altamente destrutivos, tanto na econômica, quanto na sociedade. Portanto, estão ocorrendo grandes esforços no Brasil para avaliar o comportamento e a resistência de materiais mediante a exposição ao fogo. Deste modo, com o intuito de preconizar a qualidade dos sistemas constituintes das construções, entrou em vigor a norma de desempenho das edificações habitacionais, a ABNT NBR 15575:2013, que fixa requisitos e critérios mínimos que devem ser atendidos pelas unidades autônomas em seu todo, sendo um deles, a segurança contra incêndios nas edificações, ou seja, isto colaborou para que houvesse a necessidade de pesquisas nessa área, por parte de universidades, construtoras, fabricantes, etc. Sendo assim, com o objetivo de contribuir com os estudos já existentes, neste trabalho foram identificados de forma comparativa, o desempenho de blocos de concreto e cerâmicos, quando expostos a altas temperaturas, onde foi constatado que em determinados tipos de sistemas, quando aplicado em conjunto com blocos de diferentes dimensões e fabricados por empresas divergentes, apresentam resultados satisfatórios quando relacionados ao tempo de resistência. No entanto, quando possuem espessuras de revestimentos diferentes, bem como, quando possuem fabricantes variados, a variação do desempenho no que se refere ao tempo resistência ao fogo, foram inferiores ao que é sugerido pela norma.

O envelhecimento populacional e o aumento das doenças crônicas levantam preocupações para políticas de saúde, especialmente em relação à dependência dos idosos. A OMS recomenda a manutenção da atividade física para preservar a independência e reduzir a fragilidade. Programas de prevenção de quedas são essenciais, já que essas quedas são uma causa significativa de morbidade e mortalidade entre os idosos, afetando também sua autoconfiança e qualidade de vida. Tais programas visam melhorar a força e o equilíbrio dos idosos, sendo amplamente respaldados por evidências e recomendados para implementação em cuidados primários. O estudo busca avaliar a eficácia de intervenções, como exercícios de equilíbrio e adaptações ambientais, para reduzir quedas e melhorar a segurança e a qualidade de vida em instituições de longa permanência. Trata-se de uma revisão da literatura, utilizando uma abordagem qualitativa e metodológica descritiva e exploratória. A revisão seguiu seis etapas, desde a formulação da pergunta norteadora até a apresentação dos resultados. A coleta de dados, realizada em setembro de 2024, incluiu artigos originais em português, inglês e espanhol, publicados nos últimos quinze anos, utilizando bases de dados como PubMed e Scielo. Foram excluídos editoriais, teses e estudos desatualizados ou irrelevantes para a pesquisa. As quedas em idosos resultam de uma combinação complexa de fatores biológicos, comportamentais, sociais e ambientais. Intervenções eficazes geralmente envolvem abordagens multifatoriais, combinando exercícios de equilíbrio e adaptações ambientais. O treinamento de força, especialmente para os membros inferiores, e a avaliação contínua dos riscos individuais são essenciais para a prevenção. Embora a combinação de estratégias mostre promissora, a heterogeneidade entre os fatores de risco e intervenções limita a generalização dos resultados. Futuras pesquisas devem focar em estudos longitudinais, padronização das práticas e uso de tecnologias emergentes para otimizar a prevenção de quedas. A formação contínua de profissionais e a adaptação das intervenções às necessidades específicas dos idosos são cruciais para melhorar a qualidade de vida e reduzir quedas.

Functions of Reservation Norms in Russian Law (as Exemplified by the Phrase “Exceptional Case”)
Authors:   rofessor of the Department of State and Legal Disciplines of the Management Academy of the Ministry, Repev Artem G.
Published: September 2024

The article is devoted to the study of the functional aspect of such a variety of special legal prescriptions as normsreservations, using the example of the legal-linguistic construction ‘exceptional case’. Based on the analysis of the content of the legal doctrine, modern normative legal acts, decisions of judicial authorities, the hypothesis is put forward that the reservation norms have acquired not only a stable character as a component of the legal matter, but should also be considered as a kind of special legal norm having a normative character, specifying and detailing significance. Arguments are given to the proposed provision, including those demonstrating the establishment of exceptions from the general procedure of legal regulation and (or) additions to it due to the reservation ‘in an exceptional case’. It is proved that, acting as a manifestation of the specialization of legislation, a reservation norm containing the lexeme ‘exceptional case’ can manifest itself as a positive phenomenon of legislation, and carry a negative charge.

The article deals with such type of contracts concluded in the electric power industry as an agreement on the conditions for the implementation of regulated activities. In the absence of detailed legislative and by-law regulation of these contracts, legal uncertainty arises, including in terms of the very possibility of concluding and executing agreements on the conditions for the implementation of regulated activities, since provided for by Federal Law No. 35-FZ of March 26, 2003 “On the Electric Power Industry” the act of the Government of the Russian Federation, which would regulate these issues, has not yet been adopted. At the same time, the authors come to the conclusion that this situation is not an obstacle to the conclusion of agreements on the conditions for the implementation of regulated activities for the provision of services for the transmission of electrical energy. The article provides a list of requirements, the observance of which is necessary for the conclusion of such agreements.

Background: Pizza, an Italian culinary delight, is relished by diverse groups of individuals. In this study, pizza base was innovatively crafted by substituting refined wheat flour (RWF) by combining with little millet flour (LMF) and proso millet flour (PMF) along with Bacopa monneri. Methods: A meticulous investigation was conducted to assess the impact of different quantities of RWF (20-40 g), LMF (20-40 g) and PMF (20-40 g) on the quality attributes of the pizza base, using a D-optimal design for optimization. Result: The findings revealed that an increased proportion of refined wheat flour (RWF) enhanced the overall acceptability of the pizzabase. Further more, the hardness of the pizzabase was influenced by higher RWF quantities and reduced levels of proso millet flour (PMF) and little millet flour (LMF). Similarly, an increase in the amount of PMF led to a significant increase in both protein and antioxidant content. The optimized proportions for RWF, LMF and PMF were determined to be 40 g, 33.3334 g and 26.6666 g, respectively. This optimization yielded the following outcomes: an overall acceptability score of 8.33, an antioxidant content of 92.2727%, a pizza base texture (hardness) of 2388.88 g and a protein content of 10.3131%. These results are in concurrence with the predictions made by the significantly (p less than 0.05) fitted quadratic models.
