Impact of morphological and mechanical components on inconel 625 grinding using common cylindrical grinding wheels
Authors: Ramamoorthy Manivannan , Madeshwaren Vairavel , Thangavel Suresh , Rajpradeesh Thangaraj
Published: September 2024

This study used a grinding technique based on Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) to create walls composed of Inconel 625 alloy. Mechanical and microstructural (MM) adjustments are structural and mechanical alterations that take place during the additive manufacturing process of Inconel 625 grinding. A thorough examination of the modifications made to the nickel superalloy Inconel 625's (I-625) microstructure was conducted during the grinding process. A circular weave and a stringer bead design were used to construct the wall. Tensile properties and microstructural analyses were assessed for each wall. Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), the fracture zones of the tensile specimens were examined. The microstructure is mostly composed of equiaxed dendrites, although a unique combination of discontinuous and continuous cellular dendrites can be observed along the cross-section. In tensile testing, circular woven walls performed better than stringer bead walls. The EDS and AFM results show that Ni and Cr make up the majority of the fracture zone, with traces of Nb and Mo. Because there are no lave phases, the fracture mode is ductile. The elemental mapping, which shows the homogenous dispersion of Ni and Cr inside the fracture zone, provides additional evidence in favor of the ductile failure mode. The UTS of the time-consuming TS samples is somewhat higher and exhibits a steadily rising bias in comparison to the specimens with quick TS. The highest level of the UTS sample is 10 %.

Українська наука в Другій Речі Посполитій: огляд сучасної історіографії
Authors: Тельвак Віталій
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the article is to attempt a comprehensive study of modern Ukrainian historiography, the forms and directions of the organization of scientific activity of Ukrainian intellectuals who worked in interwar Poland. The research methodology relies on the use of an interdisciplinary approach. Based on the principles of objectivity and historicism, the research has d the structural-functional systematic analysis of historiographical facts and the comparative-historical method. The article has used the heuristic possibilities of periodisation, classification and typology methods. The scientific novelty of the article lies in the comprehensive analysis of the historiography of the research of Ukrainian scientific life in the Second Polish Republic. Conclusions. The conducted historiographical analysis proved its considerable popularity among modern researchers of various aspects of the problems of the Ukrainian scientific movement in the Second Polish Republic. Scientists, updating the previously unknown materials in Ukrainian and foreign archives, consistently work out numerous institutional, problem-thematic, personalistic, archival and bibliographic subjects of this multifaceted topic. As a result, an impressive circle of diverse literature appeared (monographs of articles, reference publications, etc.). At the same time, a clear disciplinary disproportion is noticeable, which consists in the dominance of socio-humanitarian issues, and most of all - historiographical. This situation is explained by its more effective instrumentality in the contemporary struggle of Ukrainians for their national and cultural rights. Therefore, it is time to balance the scientific discourse with works on the contribution of STEM sciences to the national and world science of the interwar twenty years. This will make it possible to discuss the concept and structure of a panoramic study on the phenomenon of Ukrainian science in the Second Polish Republic, which should appear as a collective interdisciplinary project.

The purpose of the article is the need to carry out a comprehensive study of the educational situation of the Czech ethnic minority in Dnieper Ukraine during the Ukrainian War of Independence and the factors that contributed to its development and the circumstances that created difficulties. The research methodology includes the following principles: objectivity, historicism, consistency, problematic. The work uses the following methods: analysis and synthesis, problem-chronological, comparative. The scientific novelty consists in the study of the peculiarities of the educational situation of Czechs in Dnieper Ukraine on the eve and during the Ukrainian War of Independence of 1917–1921, which distinguished them from other ethnic minorities and Ukrainians. Conclusions. During the activity of the Ukrainian authorities, the Czech minority received legal protection and the right to freely develop its own culture. Ukrainization, which was initiated by the Ukrainian Central Council, did not limit the use and development of Czech or other national languages ​​of ethnic minorities, but was an element of the unification of the educational process. After the coup on April 29, 1918, hetman Pavlo Skoropadsky abolished the democratic freedoms of the Ukrainian Central Council. However, Czech education and culture not only developed freely, but also benefited from significant funding from the Ukrainian state. Retraining of Czech teachers was also organized as part of the Ukrainization of education. The Directorate of the Ukrainian People's Republic not only restored the laws of the Ukrainian Central Council, but also planned to further democratize them, which in turn could give a new impetus to the development of Czech education. However, it was not possible to implement the ideals of the Ukrainian revolution regarding the freedom and equality of all peoples due to the gradual defeat of the pro-Ukrainian forces.

Authors: Yurova P. A. , Stenina I. A. , Manin A. D. , Golubenko D. V. , Yaroslavtsev A. B.
Published: September 2024

Heterogeneous anion-exchange MA-41 membranes were surface modified with cerium oxide, incl. that with a surface functionalized with phosphoric acid groups. Composite membranes were characterized by SEM, TGA, IR spectroscopy, and voltammetry; their conductivity in various ionic forms, anion transfer numbers, and selectivity coefficients for the separation of singly and doubly charged anions during electrodialysis desalination were determined. The modifying layer of cerium oxide practically does not change conductivity of the composite membranes, but increases their monovalent selectivity. E.g., the P(Cl /SO42–) selectivity of the modified MA-41 membrane increases from 0.82 to 1.01, and the P(NO3 /SO42–) selectivity – from 1.38 to 1.60.

Published: September 2024

Mechanisms of structural adaptation of contact surfaces and lubricating materials during friction with the dominance of deformation processes in tribocontact have been  analyzed. The purpose of the work was to model the elastic-plastic properties of dissipative structures taking into account the anisotropic properties of the surface layers of the friction pairs and the boundary layers of the lubricating material. The modeling took into account the structural state of the latter formed due to heating and saturation with wear products, along with the physical and mechanical interaction of this layer with the outer surface of the part. An algorithm for determining the distributed tangent force along the length of the boundary layer of the lubricating material adjacent to the part has been developed based on the hypothesis of the wave-like state of the surface layer of the lubricating material on an absolutely flat (non-deformed) rough surface. Herein, under the action of tangent forces, the strip of lubricant is subject to horizontal compression and transverse movement. The distributed tangent stress along the length of the adjacency of the layer of densified lubricant to the part causes micro-slipping of the layer. Amplitude horizontal displacements of the boundary of the lubricant layer are determined when the beam-film is loaded with longitudinal stresses, which leads to partial disorientation of the film and loss of its originally rectilinear structured form, the transition of the lubricant layer to the state of the wave surface of a sinusoid shape. Also, a procedure for calculation of tangent forces causing the loss of elastic stability of the lubricant boundary layers resulting in the direct mechanical destruction of the lubricant boundary layer in the slipping zone of the contact surface is proposed based on  the elastic-frictional interaction of this layer with the near-surface layer of the metal

Published: September 2024

Technological control scheme for forming worn parts during their restoration by deforming broaching is proposed. Particular attention is paid to the study of the stress-strain state, which provided the conditions for creating the necessary plastic flow of the product material towards the worn areas and made it possible to compensate the wear amount in these areas of the product and provide an allowance for subsequent machining. Taking into account the peculiarities of parts restoration technological process, the relationship between the required circumferential strain of the outer surface and the total tension on the hole is established. The influence of the number of deforming elements that perform the required deformation on the accumulated strain on the inner surface of the part was investigated. This made it possible to establish that the maximum accumulated strain of the inner surface is provided by the maximum number of elements with a minimum tension on the element. On the outer surface, the value of the accumulated strain does not depend on the number of deforming elements, but is determined only by the total tension and the workpiece thickness. Based on the simulation of deforming broaching in a wide range of changes in operating parameters, tool geometry and workpiece thickness, an analytical dependence was obtained to determine the angle that ensures the absence of axial strains when the workpiece is deformed. The necessary broaching modes and tool geometry were determined, which will ensure the required dimensions of the machined or restored part.

Breaking the Cycle: Countering Popularity Bias for Diverse Content Discovery
Authors:   , Weaver Brandon J.
Published: September 2024

The ways most people consume the media have become very much driven by some pre-set algorithms. It is increasingly important to examine the outcome of these artificial intelligence (AI) models and ensure that any potentially dangerous long-term effects are addressed before they have a significant negative impact in our society. Popularity bias is one of these potentially harmful impacts, which stemmed from the shift from human intelligence to AI, or machine intelligence/machine learning (ML), when one explores the media and receives recommendations (often without requesting). In ML, three key steps usually occur; i.e, pre-processing, in-processing, and post- processing steps. The most common approach to address the issue of popularity bias is at the start of the pre-processing stage. This approach deals with the exposure bias, which believes that popularity bias occurs due to the inherited bias in the popularity distribution of the base version of the given data set the model trains on. This method, however, provides only a temporary solution to the root problem. To break the cycle of exposure bias and help bring an end to the resulting popularity bias, in this paper we propose a novel post-processing algorithm called Closer-To-Average (CTA). Continuing and combining our previous work in the in-processing stage of the ML cycle, as the proposed countermeasures are used in the real world, will result in new, less biased datasets that future models can be trained on. This not only also provides users with more relevant recommendations, but more importantly, it helps break the continued cycle of popularity bias. Experimental results show that the CTA algorithm, when applied at the end of a modified version of the SASRec recommendation model, provided a 6% improvement in Blockbuster scores compared to the baseline models. In addition, when applying the proposed solution in a real-time, web-based system for movie recommendations, it only resulted in an additional overhead time of 0.3 seconds, a negligible increase for the application. We believe that the proposed method may be widely applicable to many RS and data sets, and will contribute significantly towards a more genuine, less divisive society through unbiased recommendations.

Background: Thymus kotschyanus Boiss., commonly known as thyme, is a small semi-shrub valued for its aromatic and medicinal properties. Found throughout the Middle East and the Caucasus, it adapts to various ecological conditions and is rich in biologically active compounds, including essential oils, flavonoids, and phenolic acids. Its diverse chemical profile has made it a focus of pharmacological research for its antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, highlighting its potential therapeutic applications.
Objective: The study aimed to investigate the bioactive compounds in wild T. kotschyanus Boiss. plants grown under diverse ecological conditions, with an emphasis on how these compounds change in response to varying environmental contexts.
Materials and Methods: The chemical composition of Thymus kotschyanus Boiss. was investigated during its flowering phenophase. Aerial parts of plants were collected from the Tavush (40°880518N, 45°427958E) and Kotayk (40°17’56"N, 44°33’15"E) regions in Armenia between 2021 and 2023. The study focused on analyzing ash and moisture content, phytochemical screening, and mineral content.
Results: The ethanolic extracts of Thymus kotschyanus Boiss from both regions contained a diverse array of bioactive compounds, including coumarins, flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, phenols, carbohydrates, proteins, and saponins. Plants from the Tavush region exhibited a moisture content 1.83% higher than those from the Kotayk region, reflecting a 36.1% increase. Similarly, the ash content was 1.3% higher in Tavush plants, resulting in a 17.1% increase compared to Kotayk plants. Analysis of macro- and microminerals revealed that potassium was the most abundant macromineral, followed by calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and sodium. Among the microminerals, iron had the highest concentration, followed by zinc and copper.
Conclusion: The study demonstrated significant differences in the biologically active compounds, mineral composition, moisture, and ash content of T. kotschyanus Boiss. from different ecological zones in Armenia. Plants from the Tavush region exhibited higher moisture and ash content, as well as elevated levels of vitamins A and C, phenolic content, and essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, compared to those from the Kotayk region. These findings underscore the impact of environmental conditions on the quality and composition of T. kotschyanus Boiss., highlighting its potential as a valuable source of biologically active compounds and essential minerals.

Totengräber der amerikanischen Demokratie? Die Republikaner und ihre illiberalen Neigungen im Trump-Zeitalter
Authors: Adorf Philipp
Published: September 2024

Die Demokratie der Vereinigten Staaten sieht sich mit einer zweiten Amtszeit Donald Trumps konfrontiert. Konnte sie den ersten „Stresstest“ angeschlagen überstehen, so sind die Herausforderungen seitdem angewachsen. Donald Trump plant unverhohlen eine radikalere zweite Präsidentschaft. Möglicherweise noch besorgniserregender sind die allgemeinen illiberalen Tendenzen innerhalb der Republikanischen Partei, die auf Landesebene ihre Agenda mit mehr Nachdruck implementiert, während die Anhängerschaft der Partei den eigenen Platz in der Gesellschaft bedroht sieht und damit verbunden mit wachsender Zustimmung eine autoritäre Staatsordnung zur Wahrung des eigenen Status gutheißt.
Die Wahlen zum Europäischen Parlament: Ein „Rechtsruck“ bei den Jungwählern?
Authors: Grimmel Andreas , Meister John
Published: September 2024

Die mediale Berichterstattung über die Wahlen zum Europäischen Parlament 2024 attestierte den jungen Wählerinnen und Wählern, „nach rechts gerückt“ zu sein. Doch sind junge Menschen tatsächlich konservativer und empfänglicher für Populismus als allgemein angenommen? Was bedeutet das Ergebnis für die EU und ihre Politik? Und was sagt das Wahlergebnis über die junge Wählergeneration aus? Dieser Beitrag argumentiert, dass das Wahlergebnis weder auf eine politisierte Jugend hindeutet noch darauf schließen lässt, junge Wählerinnen und Wähler seien besonders empfänglich für national-populistische oder EU-skeptische Positionen. Die Ergebnisse bei den jungen Wählerinnen und Wählern zeigen vielmehr eine heterogene, situative und insofern auch differenzierte Wahlentscheidung – und sind deutlich „europäischer“ als zunächst vermutet.

This study explores how school professionals manage the challenges of educating newly arrived migrant students (NAMS), with a focus on the transition from the Language Introduction Program (LIP) to a national upper secondary school program or alternative forms of education. We draw on the theoretical framework of Inhabited Institutionalism to understand how school professionals’ interpretations and sense-making of external policy pressures and internal challenges of teaching a diverse group of students are shaped by social interaction. The study reveals that professionals are critical of the educational system and its consequences for NAMS’ education, due to its rigid admission requirements and unrealistic timeframes. To mitigate the potential effects on students’ educational trajectories, the professionals employ both cooling-out and warming-up strategies. The study emphasizes the significance of social interaction among school professionals in interpreting the educational system and its consequences and suggests that the outcome of negotiations among professionals regarding different strategies is likely to have a significant impact on the future trajectories of NAMS.

The threat related to explosive materials in the water domain has not yet gotten the attention it deserves. For many years in European Countries, this hazard was reduced to unexploded explosive ordnance (UXO) or abandoned explosive ordnance (AXO). During peacetime, Europe was focused on economic growth and governments, with public support, were cutting military spending below NATO’s target of 2% of GDP (Grand, 2023). The Navy was the first victim of the mandatory budget cuts. Investments in new equipment and the development of modern procedures were put on hold. The Russian attack on Ukraine and the Nord Stream sabotage was a wake-up call for most NATO members. An attack on EU vital maritime infrastructure with the help of sophisticated improvised devices, outdated widely used weapons and explosives, or unidentified ordnance is more likely than ever. At the same time, the size of the maritime area to be protected and the nature of the threats make it difficult to track the adversary and link the explosive event to a certain country or organization. If such devices are found within important maritime infrastructure or sensitive systems, non-violent methods may be used by Navy specialists to defeat the explosive weapons. NATO commitments to strengthen maritime capabilities are visible in the increased defense spending and the demand for new equipment and capabilities.
Knowledge Based Marine Spatial Planning, Management of Marine Resources and Environmental Assessments – The EMODnet Geology Concept
Authors: Vallius Henry , Kaskela Anu
Published: September 2024

High-quality maritime spatial planning, coastal zone management, management of marine resources, environmental assessments and forecasting require comprehensive understanding of the seabed. In response to the needs already in 2008, the European Commission established the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet). The EMODnet concept is to assemble existing but often fragmented and partly inaccessible marine data into harmonised, interoperable, and publicly freely available information layers which encompass whole marine basins. As the data products are free of restrictions on use the program is supporting any European maritime activities in promotion of sustainable use and management of the European seas. EMODnet-Geology project is delivering integrated geological map products which are aimed to be user friendly for public administration, research and education, maritime industry, and the general public.
European Seaports as Crucial Players in the Transportation of Spare Parts for the Slovak Automotive Industry
Authors: Dávid Andrej
Published: September 2024

Maritime transport is a key mode of transport in carrying bulk, general, and liquid cargo between the continents. This mode of transport is important not only for maritime but also for inland countries. The Slovak Republic is the leading country in car production in the world. Nowadays, four world car companies have their assembly plans there, another is under construction. Most of the spare parts that are essential for car production are transported by maritime transport on an old trade route between Europe and Asia leading through the Suez Canal, and the Strait of Malacca. All logistics activities are carried out in maritime ports that play the role of logistics hubs. While the port of Rotterdam is significant for the countries of Western Europe, the port of Koper or the German ports (port of Hamburg and the port of Bremerhaven) are significant for the countries of Central Europe. Some of these maritime ports have already built fully automated container terminals to increase their throughput and reduce the downtimes of seagoing vessels.

Published: September 2024

This study emphasis on the changes in maritime sector in Ukraine since February 2022. It was shown the importance for the country’s economy to unblock the water routes and open the Ukrainian corridor in 2023 to stabilize the export-import operations. Due to the constant development of the Ukrainian corridor, the agricultural production is successfully exported through the open ports and sometimes the volumes have reached the pre-war data. At the same time, the other production like ferrous or energy resources meets challenges. Thus, ferrous have been mined but can’t be transported, which creates the necessity to further negotiations within the international trade agreements. Considering ports as an entry gate to the country and dependency of port operations from the energy supply, the energy security of ports was considered. Following the IEA-methodology, the indicators of energy security in Ukraine by MOSES model were estimated and compared. The dependence on imports of several energy sources and variety of exporters keep the risk of supply chain disruptions very high. Alternative energy sources are a key to the energy security of port operations and their resilience capacity. The analysis delved into the primary partnerships and international project initiatives, with a focus on modernizing and reconstructing the physical infrastructure of ports and transportation modes. Analysis of the strategies showed the necessity for the improvements due to the focus of exporting-importing on the Danube region.
A Digital Health Humanities Approach to the Three-Body Problem in Healthcare Education: Balancing the Science, Art and Tech with M.A.G.I.C.
Authors: Ho Jayen , Toh Phylaine , Yap Kevin
Published: September 2024

In the provision of patient-centered care, healthcare professionals face a challenging triad that is analogous to the classical “Three-Body Problem” in physics, whereby any shifts in the dynamics of medical knowledge, narrative competence and digital technologies can tip the balance of healthcare education and practice. Drugs/Medications are often caught in the dichotomy of being both “heroes” and “villains”, which underscores the necessity of a balanced, informed, and empathetic approach to patient care. Drawing inspiration from the popular novel and Netflix series, the dynamic interplay between the science of medical knowledge, the art of empathy and narrative competence, and the advancement of healthcare technologies to harmonise the diverse, yet interconnected domains, of medication management, medical humanities and digital health is demonstrated – in the emerging field of Digital Health Humanities. The novel project called M.A.G.I.C. is revealed, that blends the rigour of medical science with the nuanced understanding of patient narratives, and the cutting-edge potential of digital innovations like Generative Artificial Intelligence and the Metaverse, to create a holistic, learner-centered approach for the education of the healthcare professions.
Tabula Rasa: A Case Study in Chronic Pain Management Using Individual-Centric AI
Authors: Ireland David , Andrews Nicole , Bradford Dana
Published: September 2024

There are numerous behavioural, social and environmental factors that influence the symptomatology of a chronic health condition. These factors and how they manifest are often very specific to the individual, which creates challenges for applying macro population health approaches and insights to guide treatment. An artificial intelligence system, referred to as a non-axiomatic reasoning system (NARS), is presented. Learning in NARS is incremental and ongoing. A practical application of NARS in chronic pain management is demonstrated, as NARS can establish associations with behavioural activities that might exacerbate pain levels and revise the strengths of these associations over time. The system has potential application in any condition requiring patient-centric adaption.

Authors: Diouf Ibrahima , Lim Wen K. , Jayasena Rajiv , Khanna Sankalp
Published: September 2024

Patient discharges from hospital to residential aged care facilities (RACFs) are often delayed due to inefficiencies in matching them to suitable available beds. To investigate the improvements that digital solutions can offer here, case-mix adjusted Length of Stay (LOS) of patients discharged to RACFs from a major metropolitan Victorian hospital were compared before and after the introduction of a digital solution for matching patient needs and preferences to available RACFs places. The study found that after the digital solution was implemented, the period where a patient would wait in the hospital for a RACF placement post the Aged Care Assessment Services (ACAS) assessment, the LOS reduced by 26.0% [95% confidence interval (95%CI):8.5%-40.5%]. The corresponding decrease in complete LOS for the After period was 16.5% (95%CI=1.5%-29.4%). This equates to a significant reduction in time spent by vulnerable patients in hospital while potentially freeing up 88,805 (95%CI:28,934- 137,864) patient bed days and delivering a cost saving of $105,993,947 (95%CI:$34,651,867-$165,105,956) if applied to the reported number of hospital patient days used by those eligible and waiting for residential age care nationally across the country in 2021-22.

Authors: Fernando Poorna , Ranwala R.A.D.L.M.K. , Hewapathirana Roshan
Published: September 2024

Information disorder is problematic in health because it can limit effective treatment options and preventive measures. Interviews were conducted to understand the current policies and practices better. The qualitative analysis resulted in three broad thematic areas, with 115 codes and 12 code groups. Since Sri Lanka is a low- to middle-income country, optimising available resources is crucial; alternative cost-free tools and freely accessible international standards and guidelines can be customised to meet the country’s needs.
