Authors: Василюк Н.Н.
Published: September 2024

Описан алгоритм комплексирования инерциальных и спутниковых навигационных измерений по схеме слабого связывания , с использованием расширенного фильтра Калмана. Спутниковые измерения ориентации представлены в виде пар угловых координат (угол азимута и угол места) векторов ненулевой длины. Все векторы имеют общее начало в фазовом центре одной антенны. Концы векторов размещаются в фазовых центрах остальных антенн. Комплексирующий фильтр допускает переменный состав и размерность вектора наблюдений, что облегчает отбор пар измеренных угловых координат в сложных условиях распространения спутникового сигнала. Описано устройство прототипа навигационной системы и приведены результаты экспериментальной отработки предложенного алгоритма.

The algorithm of inertial and GNSS measurements coupling according to the loose coupling approach using an extended Kalman filter is proposed. GNSS attitude measurements are presented in the form of pairs of angular coordinates (azimuth angle and elevation angle) of vectors of nonzero length. All vectors have a common origin in the phase center of one antenna. The tails of the vectors are in the phase centers of the remaining antennas. The coupling filter allows a variable composition and dimension of the observation vector, which facilitates the selection of pairs of measured angular coordinates in difficult GNSS signals propagation conditions. The design of the navigation systems prototype is described and the results of experimental testing of the proposed algorithm are presented.

The ever-increasing demands on the electronic equipment of spacecraft entail the need to create fail-safe computing modules based on configurable computing structures under the influence of space factors. The use of ultra-large integrated circuits as the main elements of computing modules requires the development of new approaches to design, the creation of new concepts, the modernization of existing software and algorithmic support, the creation of a new element base, and the use of new information technologies. The simultaneous increase in the requirements for the reliability of the onboard computing systems of the spacecraft increases the relevance of the problem of their fault tolerance. In this paper, we consider the architecture of the onboard computer system of the spacecraft in the aspect of fault tolerance. The publication notes the shortcomings of existing models of onboard computer systems for spacecraft. A mathematical model of the architecture under consideration is proposed, generalizing the well-known algebraic models. The properties of the proposed model are investigated and the design directions of its application are determined to ensure the necessary level of fault tolerance of the onboard computer system of the spacecraft. The expediency of using the proposed model is noted.

Published: September 2024

Существуют две крупные химикотехнологические проблемы, которые могут быть решены одновременно со значительными экологическим и экономическим эффектми. Первая из них состоит в необходимости полной переработки красных шламов (КШ). Вторая заключается в сокращении выбросов в атмосферу токсичных газов от промышленных предприятий. Актуальность решения первой проблемы резко возросла после случившейся в 2010 г. в Венгрии крупной экологической катастрофы разрушилась ограждающая дамба шламохранилища. Риски повторения такой катастрофы увеличиваются изза участившихся природных катаклизмов. В работе показано, что эти задачи можно решить методом применения многокомпонентного по химическому составу КШ, который способен взаимодействовать с токсичными газообразными соединениями серы и удалять их из состава отходящих промышленных газов. Результаты лабораторных исследований подтверждены промышленными испытаниями. Выявлены химическая и термодинамическая емкости материала. Приведены экспериментальные доказательства и соответствующие характеристики применительно к газовым выбросам промышленных ТЭЦ, сталеплавильного и агломерационного производства.

There are two major chemical and technological problems that can be solved simultaneously with a significant environmental and economic effect. The first of these is the need for complete processing of red mud (RM). The second is to reduce emissions of toxic gases from industrial plants. The urgency of solving the first problem has sharply increased after a major environmental disaster in Hungary in 2010. It was destroyed the fencing of the sludge storage dam. The risks of a repetition of such a catastrophe are increasing due to the increasing frequency of natural disasters. This paper shows that these tasks can be solved by applying a multicomponent, chemical composition, RM, which is able to interact with toxic gaseous sulfur compounds and remove them from the composition, industrial waste gases. The results of laboratory tests are confirmed by industrial tests. Identified chemical and thermodynamic capacity of the material. Experimental evidence and relevant characteristics are given, as applied to gas emissions from industrial heat and power plants, steelmaking and sintering production.

Published: September 2024

Рассмотрена задача определения параметров беспилотного летательного аппарата. Эффективное совершение маневров беспилотного летательного аппарата требует точной навигационной информации о его параметрах. Навигационная информация поступает от инерциальной навигационной системы и спутниковой навигационной системы. Обработка сигналов навигационных систем осуществляется с помощью алгоритма оценивания. В качестве алгоритма оценивания предложено использовать федеративный фильтр Калмана. Для получения высокоточной навигационной информации необходимо оценить и скомпенсировать погрешности навигационных систем как можно быстрее. Поэтому в федеративный фильтр Калмана дополнительно включена специальная процедура, позволяющая ускорить процесс получения достоверных оценок погрешностей навигационных систем. В основу предложенной процедуры в федеративном фильтре Калмана положен критерий степени наблюдаемости переменных состояния исследуемой модели. Работоспособность разработанной модификации фильтра Калмана подтверждена результатами полунатурного моделирования.

The problem of determining the parameters of an unmanned aerial vehicle is considered. Effective maneuvers of an unmanned aerial vehicle require accurate navigation information about its parameters. Navigation information comes from an inertial navigation system and a satellite navigation system. Signal processing of navigation systems is carried out using the estimation algorithm. It is proposed to use the Kalman federal filter as an estimation algorithm. To obtain highly accurate navigation information, it is necessary to evaluate and compensate for errors in navigation systems as quickly as possible. Therefore, a special procedure is additionally included in the Kalman federal filter to speed up the process of obtaining reliable estimates of the errors of navigation systems. The proposed procedure in the Kalman federal filter is based on a criterion for the degree of observability of the state variables of the studied model. The operability of the developed Kalman filter modification is confirmed by the results of the semi-natural modeling.

Unusual Confinement-Induced Basicity and Proton-Mediated CH Activity of an Adipic Acid-Ammonium Cluster

Published: September 2024

Organic acids play an important role in atmospheric chemistry, particularly in the formation of aerosol particles. They are often detected with hydronium, ammonium, or nitrate chemical ionization sources, which are generally soft ionization sources but may cause fragmentation. Here we explore the reactivity of adipic acid, an analogue to the alpha-pinene oxidation product pinic acid, upon complexation with ammonium. Mass spectra and mass-selective vibrational spectra show that even mild activation, consistent with normal operation of an electrospray ionization source, yields (adipic acid)H+ and neutral ammonia. This is traced to a specific structural motif in which both protonated carboxylic acid carbonyl groups combine to form a site that is locally more basic than ammonia. Further mild collisional activation yields sequential loss of two water molecules, the known behavior of carboxylic acids in superacids, necessitating abstraction of at least one hydrogen from a CH group. Deuterium labeling experiments confirm that the second step indeed involves CH hydrogen atoms. Comparison of vibrational spectra and quantum chemical calculations allows us to assign structures for each step, identifying several ring structures but notably not forming the minimum energy structure upon the first loss of water. ESI of a range of linear dicarboxylic acids shows this to be a common feature of this class of organic acids. We propose a mechanism that explains this reactivity and discuss possible atmospheric implications of these observations.

Immunogenic cell death (ICD), which converts tumor cells into their own vaccine, plays a pivotal role in the development of novel anti-cancer therapies. Here, a small series of osmium(II) polypyridyl complexes were synthesized and their biological activity in the dark and upon light irradiation against various cancer cell lines was studied. The compound Os2 (bearing two 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthrolines and one substituted bipyridine ligand) was discovered to be the most effective photosensitizer (PS) for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of this series through the photogeneration of 1O2 and •OH. In addition, Os2 was found to exhibit promising toxicity upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation under both normoxia and hypoxia. These observations indicate that this PS is working through a mixture of Type-I and Type-II mechanisms. More interestingly, upon 740 nm irradiation, Os2 can stimulate a strong ICD response both in vitro and in vivo. A comprehensive immune analysis showed that mice vaccinated with Os2-treated CT26-luc cells boosted the systemic specific adaptive immune responses, including the activation of CD8+ T cells and reprograming of macrophages, leading to effective inhibition of tumor growth. Os2 is, to the best of our knowledge, the first photoactive osmium-based complex inducing ICD.

Authors: Yadav Navin , Sahoo Ajay Kumar , Sarkar Debarghya , Moorthy Jarugu Narasimha
Published: September 2024

Here we report an efficient and practical protocol for the generation of halo radicals (Br and Cl) using inexpensive and readily available NXS/TBHP reagent system at rt. The halo radicals were further utilized for the site-selective C-H bromination and chlorination of the unexplored benzo-core of quinoxalinones. This protocol offers excellent regioselectivity towards C7 position of benzo-core over readily functionalized C3 position in hetero-core of quinoxalinones under mild reaction conditions. Notably, this transformation showed good functional group compatibility and a wide substrate scope. Further, selective synthesis of gem-dihaloketones from alkynes has been accomplished using the same reagent system.
Unveiling the mysterious hydrocarbon – Clar’s goblet

Published: September 2024

In the classic view, spin pairing occurs between two electrons in a chemical bond where the bonding interaction compensates for the penalty of electrostatic repulsion. It is a mystery whether spin pairing can occur between two non-bonded electrons within a molecular entity. Unveiling this elusive spin entanglement (i.e., pairing between two spatially segregated spins) at the molecular scale, is a long-standing challenge. Clar’s goblet proposed by Erich Clar in 1972, provides an ideal model to verify this unusual property. Here, we report the solution-phase synthesis of Clar’s goblet and experimental elucidation of its spin properties. Magnetic studies reveal that the two spins are spatially segregated with an average distance of 8.7 Å, and antiferromagnetically coupled in the ground state with an ES-T of –0.29 kcal/mol. Our results provide direct evidence of spin entanglement in the Clar’s goblet and may inspire the design of correlated molecular spins for quantum information technologies.
Molecular photothermal activation assisted synthesis, and orthogonal assembly of metal-organic-framework
Authors: Weizmann Yossi , Biswas Aritra , Lemcoff Nir , Shelonchik Ofir
Published: September 2024

Temperature is a fundamental parameter in any chemical process, affecting reaction rates, selectivity, and more. Typically, chemists think of temperature as a homogeneous property, remaining unchanged throughout the reaction in space and time. Recently, photothermal materials have been emerging as an exciting tool opening new paths for innovative research, challenging the viewpoint described above. Herein, we develop a synthesis and in-situ assembly technique for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on the distinct heterogeneous heating of photothermal materials under visible light. Notably, a simple cobalt chloride molecular complex was utilized as an efficient and stable light-to-heat converter for initial MOF formation. A thorough investigation of the assembly mechanism revealed the key role photothermal activation had in the formation of the superstructures. Finally, palladium nanoparticles (NP) were utilized as competing photothermal agents shedding light on the dynamics between different heat sources within a reaction and resulting in MOF-NP composites. This work highlights the versatility of the photothermal approach in the synthesis of advanced materials introducing a promising route to the micro/nano assembly of different materials.

Authors: P.M A Safneedha , C.G.V Raveena Ragavi , . G Pughal Vendan
Published: September 2024

Patients undergoes moderate to severe postoperative pain after surgery, which is troublesome during the postoperative period. Inadequately treated acute post operative pain causes prolonged morbidity to patients. Pre-emptive analgesic minimises the pain in perioperative period by central neuro sensitization. We assessed the role of Nasal Tapentadol in breast surgery patients, as a pre-emptive analgesic, in the reduction of post-operative analgesic requirement. In a double blinded prospective randomized control study, sixty breast surgery patients, received nasal spray of tapentadol (Group A) or saline Spray (Group B), 30 minutes prior to general anaesthesia. Perioperative analgesic requirement, time taken for first analgesic requirement in post operative period, post operative pain and sedation scores, we compared the following parameters in the first 24h during the postoperative period in all patients: Analgesic requirement during perioperative period, time taken for first post operative analgesic dose, pain score and sedation score in postoperative period.Data Of all sixty patients were analysed. Patients in Tapentadol Group A had significantly lower requirement of analgesics and lower Visual analog scale (VAS) than Saline group in the post operative period. However, Ramsay sedation score was more in Tapentadol group, immediately after shifting the patient to the postanaesthetic care unit. Single Pre-emptive nasal spray of tapentadol (45mg) is an effective intervention to, reduce the surgical pain and lesser requirement of analgesics, in post operative period, without added side effects.

Women in panchayats: The history, the perspective and the background
Authors: Viji N. R. , Sheela Edward G.
Published: September 2024

Women play a key role in India's Panchayat Raj System by serving as Panchayat members and chairpersons. The primary reason for including women in the system was to engage them in national administration and progress. The United Nations (UN) adopted the Convention on Women's Political Rights in 1952 and has organized four World Conferences on Women, the fourth of which was held in Beijing in 1995. This conference declared that women's equal participation in decision-making is not only a requirement for justice and democracy but also essential for ensuring their well-being is taken into account. It also stated that women must have at least a 30% share of decision-making positions. However, the participation of women in politics and public life in India remains woefully low. There is a significant gap between men and women in political activities beyond voting. Women's involvement at higher levels of governance is notably lower compared to their participation at the lower levels. In the domestic sphere, women's leadership and administrative skills are quietly acknowledged, yet they are not given space in the public arena. While other marginalized communities, such as Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, received reservations in Parliament and State Legislative Assemblies, women were not initially granted any reservation in the Constitution of India, which limited their political empowerment.

Pelatihan Pengembangan tari daerah bagi komunitas-komunitas tari di Kabupaten Barru merupakan kegiatan pengabdian pada masyarakat yang bertujuan untuk menambah wawasan dan pengetahuan komunitas-komunitas tari di Kabupaten Barru terkait tari-tari daerah Sulawesi Selatan dan bagaimana cara mengembangkan tari yang bersumber dari tari daerah dengan menggunakan metode Jacquelin Smith. Faktanya, anggota komunitas-komunitas tari di Kabupaten Barru masih sangat minim pengetahuan budaya terkhusus tari daerah Sulawesi Selatan terlebih yang terkait dengan simbol-simbol dalam tari demikian juga halnya dengan kaidah-kaidah pengembangan tari. Hal ini terjadi karena sistem pelatihan pada sanggar lebih fokus pada skill dibandingkan dengan penguasaan wawasan tentang budaya terlebih pada pengetahuan tentang tari yang bersumber dari etnis-etnis tertentu di Sulawesi Selatan.

Kreativitas merupakan kesanggupan untuk berkreasi, menciptakan sesuatu, sebagai sebuah pola pikir, gagasan maupun ide yang muncul pada diri serta penciptaan terhadap hal yang baru. Kreativitas dibagi menjadi dua yaitu kreativitas verbal dan figural Kreativitas verbal yaitu kemampuan untuk membuat kombinasi baru berdasarkan data, informasi atau unsur-unsur yang didapati dari kemungkinan jawaban terhadap satu masalah dan diungkap secara verbal. Sementara kreativitas figural adalah kemampuan untuk memunculkan ide-ide atau gagasan baru melalui gambar yang dibuat. Salah satu kegiatan di sekolah yang dapat meningkatkan kreativitas adalah menggambar. Efek dari kegiatan menggambar yang signifikan baik dalam ranah kreativitas verbal maupun figuratif. Fauna di Indonesia memiliki berbagai macam sebagai sebuah kekayaan. Banyak cerita rakyat kita di Indonesia menggunakan fauna sebagai tokoh cerita. Oleh sebab itu, menggunakan fauna sebagai tokoh sentral dalam cerita dapat memudahkan peserta didik dalam menggambar ilustrasi, sehingga apa yang ia inginkan, apa yang ia senangi, bahkan apa yang tidak disenangi dapat disalurkan dalam bentuk gambar. Atas dasar permasalahan tersebut maka dibuatlah sebuah program kegiatan masyarakat “PKM Pelatihan Menggambar Ilustrasi Bertema Fauna dalam Meningkatkan Kreatifitas Verbal dan Figural pada Peserta didik Sekolah Menengah Pertama Negeri 4 Majene” dengan tujuan menjadikan pelatihan sebagai media untuk meningkatkan kreativitas verbal dan figural peserta didik di SMP Negeri 4 Majene.

As urbanization continues to increase, changes in the ecological characteristics of urban areas are becoming more reasonable to meet the needs of a growing population. However, the profound impact of human-induced urban pressures on land, often called the “billing impact”, is strongly emphasized in research publications. In many cases, contemporary anthropogenic processes alter the dynamics of environmental functions in complex ways. Urban regions meet a particular climate regime characterized by increased air temperatures compared to peripheral areas and a significant reduction in wind speed, attributable to the interaction of natural and anthropogenic factors. An urban heat island (UHI) occurs when the air above populated areas heats up additionally, causing air to flow from the site’s edges to its center and creating a heat dome. This study reveals the influence of urbanization on microclimatic changes, encompassing increased evapotranspiration, altered vegetation cover, and temperature fluctuations. The results illustrate environmental transformations caused by abrupt and unregulated urbanization in the mountainous area of Zlatibor, Serbia, a trend that has intensified over the past decade.
Forecasting extreme precipitations by using polynomial regression
Authors: Dikbaş Fatih
Published: September 2024

It is well known that the recent global warming intensifies the magnitude of rainfalls due to the increase in water content in the atmosphere. Therefore, the probability of exceeding the previously observed extreme precipitation values also increases with the experienced climate change, and forecasting extreme weather events is becoming more important. This paper presents a new polynomial regression approach and software (PolReg), where future extreme precipitations exceeding all previous observations are estimated for each month of year by using prediction bounds with a level of certainty at 95%. The presented method determines the degrees and coefficients of best-fitting polynomials for each precipitation station and forecasts the expected extreme value for each month of year by using the determined polynomials. The performance of the method is tested by removing and estimating a total of 792 highest observed monthly total precipitation values of 66 precipitation stations in Turkey (the highest observation for each month of year for each station). The results show that the proposed method and the provided software have a high performance and accuracy in estimating future precipitation extremes and might be applied in many disciplines dealing with forecasting probable extreme values.
Assessment of the potential area for the establishment of the Colorado potato beetle in Finland and Sweden

Summary
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB, Leptinotarsa decemlineata) is a protected zone quarantine pest in the southern parts of Finland and Sweden. The units responsible for pest risk assessments in Finland and Sweden were requested to identify the geographical areas likely to be suitable for establishment of the CPB given a climate change scenario that covers the years 2023–2040.
Based on previous studies, the northern limit of the potential range of the CPB appears to depend, above all, on where the summer temperatures enable the development of one complete generation. To identify such areas in Finland and Sweden, we first estimated the annual growing degree day (GDD) requirement (above 10 °C) of the CPB based on the two‐decade mean annual GDD in the northernmost locations where the CPB is present in Russia. The lowest mean annual GDD among these locations was 587 which was used as the GDD requirement of the CPB in this assessment. Next, we delineated the areas in Finland and Sweden where this GDD requirement was met in a recent time period (2003–2022) and in a future time period (2031–2050) assuming an intermediate greenhouse gas emission scenario, i.e., Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5.
The results show that the GDD requirement of 587 is met in large areas in southern Finland and Sweden, and by 2040, also in central Finland and the Baltic Sea coastline. We further assessed that there are enough hosts for the CPB to enable establishment in these areas. These areas were therefore assessed as likely to be suitable for the establishment of the CPB. Importantly, they include areas much further north than the current protected zones. This result was assessed to be rather robust since even a 20% higher GDD requirement (704) was met in a much larger area than the protected zones both in Sweden (in the recent and future climate) and in Finland (in the future climate).
The greatest sources of uncertainty in the assessment are the uncertainty of the annual GDD that the CPB needs to complete its life cycle, the future climate projections, and the abundance of hosts necessary in a landscape to enable the CPB to establish.
