Władza w spłaszczonym internecie – wyzwania badawcze
Authors: Filiciak Mirosław
Published: July 2024

Media studies have enhanced the classic discourse-centred analyses of symbolic power with an additional reflection on the agency of the technological infrastructure through which discourse is produced. The article’s starting point is an overview of concepts related to the role of the technological sphere in communication processes and related social practices. The theoretical reflection is then juxtaposed with examples of research that attempts to capture these relationships on an empirical level, and with a reflection on the resistance that technological matter poses to such activities.

Published: July 2024

Contemporary reasons for migration are diverse and they are treated as the most active factor of human activity. Highlighting the scale of migration processes that generate challenges and threats in the modern world seems fully justified. Analysis of the experience of the influx of Ukrainian immigrants for economic purposes as a result of the migration crisis of 2015–2018, the mass influx of foreigners during the crisis on the Polish-Belarusian border and the specific exodus of war refugees from Ukraine as a result of the military conflict triggered profound changes in Poland’s migration policy. This article presents the expansion of the causes and effects of the above phenomena on state security in the social and economic dimensions. The role of migration policy in the new and changing security architecture was also highlighted.

Published: July 2024

Huge amounts of agricultural residues or wastes represent an interesting lignocellulosic material which can be used for energy recovery by pyrolysis as an alternative to incineration. Together with the energy production, biochar (solid residue), can be with an advantage used as a soil conditioner or for other applications such as adsorbents, supporting the principles of circular economy. Here we studied the effect of torrefaction and pyrolysis temperature from 250 to 700 °C on the composition and properties of pyrolysis gas and biochar from four types of agrowaste-derived materials: sunflower harvest residues, grain harvest residues, separate from digestion, and extracted sunflower meal. The paper provides dataset on detailed composition of pyrolysis gases, indicating the differences due to different composition of the feedstock materials and describes the main parameters affecting the use of biochar as soil amendment. Torrefaction proved to be unsuitable for the production of soil amendment quality biochar and the temperature higher than 400 °C is recommended in order to produce good quality biochar while transforming most of the energy content of feedstock to primary pyrolysis products.
A method for predicting tank bottom sludge formation during crude oil storage
Authors: Straka Petr , Maxa Daniel
Published: July 2024

The laboratory method for predicting the amount and composition of sludge accumulated during crude oil storage on the bottom of a high capacity storage tank has been developed and tested. The laboratory model of the storage tank on a scale of 1:20 was designed with the assumption of a 20-fold acceleration of the process of sedimentation of wax particles and, thus, the formation of a bottom sludge. The results of the model and industrial scale (in the high capacity tank) storage of a Russian export blend crude oil were compared and excellent agreement was found. The developed method was used to evaluate an Iran Light crude oil and a blend of crude oils, Azeri Light, and CPC. The diametrically different behaviour of the compared crude oils during their model storage was ascribed to the different paraffinic particles size distributions and rheologic properties. The correlation between the composition of the crude oil and its tendency to form a sludge at the bottom of the storage tank was not found.

PREVALENCE OF KEY STROKE TYPES AND PHASES OF PRESENTATION AT A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL - IMPLICATION FOR EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT
Authors: Moholkar Nagesh , Figueiredo Dwight , Matre Sushant
Published: July 2024

Stroke requires early diagnosis for effective management, especially in developing countries like India. This study was
undertaken to categorize stroke types and phases. We conducted a single-center retrospective study with convenience
sampling in which MRI brain scans and reports were taken from PACS in the Radiology department at a tertiary care
hospital in Pune, India. The sample consisted of 606 confirmed stroke patients whose MRI was taken between January and
December 2022. Data extracted from patient records included the type & the phase of stroke, presenting symptoms at
hospital admission, and demographic variables (i.e. age, gender). Descriptive statistics along with chi-square analysis
was conducted to assess associations between types & phases of stroke with studied categorical variables. Our data
revealed ischemic stroke (41.5%) and transient ischemic attack (TIA) (32.36%) as predominant stroke types. Males
exhibited higher stroke incidence than females, with notable gender-based differences in stroke phases. Only 14.31%
of patients received MRI scans within the early hyperacute stroke phase. TIA patients were scanned predominantly in the
early hyperacute phase, contrasting with micro-hemorrhagic stroke patients scanned in the chronic phase. Age and
gender were associated with stroke types (gender: p = 0.03; age; p = 0.00002) and phases (gender: p = 0. 035; age; p =
0.001). Types and phases of stroke were associated (p = 0.0001). These findings underscore the need for heightened
awareness among local populations regarding stroke types and the golden window period of treatment, given the high
occurrence of stroke, particularly TIA, in younger age groups.

Authors: Klyueva Svetlana N. , Bugorkova Svetlana A. , Erokhin Pavel S. , Goncharova Anastasiya Yu. , Kravtsov Aleksandr L.
Published: July 2024

Introduction. Based on data on the role of blood erythrocytes in the development and implementation of the vaccine and infectious processes in plague, it was of interest to evaluate changes in erythrocyte surface architecture from the position of searching for informative criteria for the preclinical evaluation of anti-plague vaccines.
Aim — using atomic force microscopy to characterize the state of the blood erythrocyte membrane of guinea pigs in response to subcutaneous administration of the vaccine strain Yersinia pestis EV NIIEG and its isogenic derivatives.
Materials and methods. For immunization of animals strain Y. pestis EV NIIEG (pYT+, pYV+, pYP+) and its isogenic derivatives Y. pestis KM216 (pYT–, pYV–, pYP+), Y. pestis KM217 (pYT–, pYV+, pYP–), Y. pestis KM218 (pYT–, pYV–, pYP–) were used. Analysis of the erythrocyte membrane was carried out using a Solver P47-PRO scanning probe microscope (NT-MDT, Russia).
Results. The most pronounced changes in the surface architectonics of the membrane of guinea pig erythrocytes were established during the first three days of the formation of the immune response to the Y. pestis EV strain NIIEG and its isogenic variant Y. pestis KM217, in the genome of which the pYV plasmid is preserved, administered at a dose of 5 × 108 CFU. A significant increase (p 0.05) in the proportion of transformed cell forms (43.67 ± 3.63% and 37.83 ± 7.03% versus 4.08 ± 0.86% in the control group), root mean square roughness (319 ± 8 nm and 312 ± 7 nm versus 70 ± 6 nm in the control group), Young's modulus (125.73 ± 4.48 kPa and 113.8 ± 5.41 kPa versus 53.03 ± 1.47 kPa in the control group). By the 21st day, the value of these indicators decreased by an average of 2.7, 2.0 and 1.5 times, respectively, indicating restoration of the erythrocyte membrane.
Conclusion. The dependence of the changes in the erythrocyte membrane and the rate of their restoration on the plasmid composition of Y. pestis strains has been established. The data obtained contribute to the understanding of the processes of interaction of Y. pestis with the erythrocyte membrane and can be used as additional characteristics in the development of new criteria for preclinical evaluation of plague candidate vaccines.

Introduction. Fluoroquinolones remain the key second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs.
The aim of the study was the molecular characterization of fluoroquinolone-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains from newly diagnosed tuberculosis patients in the Northwest of the Russian Federation.
Materials and methods. The retrospective study collection included M. tuberculosis isolates isolated in 2015–2019 from previously untreated tuberculosis patients. Susceptibility to antituberculosis drugs (including the fluoroquinolone ofloxacin) was determined using the BACTEC MGIT960 or absolute concentration method. Mutations in the gyrA gene as a marker of resistance to fluoroquinolones, were detected by real-time PCR. Beijing genotype and its subtypes were detected by PCR and real-time PCR methods. Non-Beijing strains were spoligotyped.
Results and discussion. Phenotypic resistance to ofloxacin was detected in 6.7% (40/599) of strains and in 17.4% (40/230) of MDR strains. 34 of 40 (85%) ofloxacin-resistant strains belonged to the Beijing genotype. 18 (45%) strains were assigned to the Russian epidemic subtype Beijing B0/W148 and 12 (30%) to Beijing Central Asian/Russian. The remaining 6 ofloxacin-resistant strains belonged to the Euro-American phylogenetic lineage. Mutations in the gyrA gene were found in 97.5% (39/40) of strains. The most common were mutations in codon 94 (69.2%, 27/39). The Asp94Gly substitution was identified in 57.5% (23/40) of ofloxacin-resistant strains and was dominant among Beijing (19/34) and non-Beijing (4/6) strains. The second most common substitution was Ala90Val (25%, 10/40). More than half of the ofloxacin-resistant strains, Beijing B0/W148 (10/18) and Central Asian/Russian (7/12), carried the Asp94Gly mutation.
Conclusion. In the Northwest of Russia in 2016-2019, primary resistance of M. tuberculosis to fluoroquinolones was 6.7% in the total collection and 17.4% of MDR strains, and was mainly caused by the gyrA Asp94Gly and Ala90Val mutations. Beijing B0/W148 genotype was characterized by the largest proportion of fluoroquinolone-resistant strains.

Introduction. The traditional surveillance system for influenza and ARVI provides a general description of epidemics, but does not provide information on the age-related characteristics of the etiology and clinical peculiarities of severe acute respiratory diseases (SARI) in hospitalized patients.
Aim. To monitor the etiology of SARI in hospitalized children and adults, assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on this process.
Materials and methods. Standardized clinical and laboratory monitoring of SARI among 18,458 hospitalized patients was carried out in hospitals in three cities of Russia with weekly PCR detection of 11 types of pathogens.
Results. According to the investigation of hospitalized patients with SARI for the period from 2018 to 2023, the viral etiology of respiratory diseases was deciphered in 58.3% of cases. Weekly monitoring showed a change in the etiological mosaic of SARI pathogens during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic with a sharp decrease in the frequency of detection of influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) during the 2020–2021 season against the background of a significant increase of metapneumovirus and rhinovirus infections in children. During the 2022-2023 season an increase in the proportion of RSV infection in children under 6 years of age (up to 36.2%) was noted against the background of a significant decrease in the frequency of SARS-CoV-2. In the intensive care units (ICU), RSV infection was most often in children during the post-pandemic period (up to 30.1–53.6% of positive cases, p 0.001); in adults, SARS-CoV-2 was mostly detected (76,5–100% of cases, p 0.001).
Conclusion. Hospital surveillance data significantly complements the epidemiological information obtained in the traditional surveillance system. Monitoring of infections has shown a continuously changing etiological infrastructure of SARI, with the disappearance of influenza and RSV during the COVID-19 pandemic and their return to circulation in the post-pandemic period.
Deep Learning-Based Analysis of Ancient Greek Literary Texts in English Version: A Statistical Model Based on Word Frequency and Noise Probability for the Classification of Texts
Authors: Gál Zoltán , Tóth Erzsébet
Published: July 2024

In our paper we intend to present a methodology that we elaborated for clustering texts based on the word fre quency in the English translations of selected old Greek texts. We used the classification system of the ancient Library of Alex andria, devised by the prominent Greek scholar-poet, Callima chus in the 3rd century BC., as a basis for categorizing literary masterpieces. In our content analysis, we could determine a tri plet of a, b, c values for describing a power function that appro priately fits a curve determined by the word frequencies in the texts. In addition, we have discovered 16 special features of the different texts that correspond to various token categories inves tigated in each text, such as part of speech of the word in the con text, numerals, subordinate conjunction, symbols, etc. We have developed a cognitive model in which several hundred different subtexts were utilized for supervised learning with the aim of subtext class recognition. Concerning 200 subtexts, the triplet of a, b, c values, the classes of the subtexts, and their 16-dimen sional feature vectors were learnt for the Recurrent Neural Net work (RNN). It turned out that the Long-Short Term Memory RNN could efficiently predict which class a chosen subtext could be categorized into without considering the interpretation of the content. The influence of the non-zero error rate of new com munication services on the meaning of the transferred texts was also investigated. The impact of the noise on the classification accuracy was found to be linear, dependent on the character error rate.

Published: July 2024

Despite rapid advancements in the automotive industry, traffic safety risks persist. Addressing this challenge requires innovative driver assistance technologies. Common accidents result from driver inattention, fatigue, and stress, leading to issues like falling asleep at the wheel and improper acceleration and braking. Our study aims to contribute to advanced driver assistance systems that adapt to drivers' emotional needs, ultimately enhancing road safety. In this paper, we mention the result of our research to estimate drivers' emotions using sensors. For that purpose, we developed a sensor network containing sensors such as EEG, eye tracker, and driving simulator. We explored the relationship. As a result, we confirmed the relation between the driver's emotions, especially sleep conditions, driving speed, duration, and brain wave behavior.
Optimizing Text Clustering Efficiency through Flexible Latent Dirichlet Allocation Method: Exploring the Impact of Data Features and Threshold Modification
Authors: Tóth Erzsébet , Gál Zoltán
Published: July 2024

A parallel corpus comprising Croatian EU legislative documents automatically translated into English spans 28 years and is enriched with metadata, including creation year and hierarchical classifier tags denoting descriptors, document types, and fields. However, nearly two-thirds of the approximately 1.5 thousand texts lack complete metadata, necessitating labor intensive manual efforts that pose challenges for human administration. This incompleteness issue can be observed in the case of official legal sites functioning as regular service provisioning databases. In response, this paper introduces an artificial cognitive and multilabel classification approach to expedite the tagging process with only a fraction of the manual effort. Leveraging the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm, our method assigns field values or tags to incompletely labeled documents. We implement a Flexible LDA variant, incorporating the influence of topics close to the most probable topic, regulated by a relative probability threshold (RPT). We evaluate the LDA prediction's dependence on document prefiltering and RPT values. Furthermore, we investigate the dependence of quantitative linguistic properties on the type and speciality of pre-processing tasks. Our algorithm, built on error-correcting optimizing codes, succesfully predicts a mixture of topic probabilities for these legal texts. This prediction is achieved by calculating the Hamming distance of binary feature vectors created using the legal fields of the EUROVOC multilingual thesaurus.

Il primo Fondo europeo per lo sviluppo: prospettive dall’Italia e dalla Somalia (1958-1963)
Authors: Tonolo Giovanni
Published: July 2024

This chapter aims to shed light on the results of the first European Community aid in Somalia and the role played by Italian and Somali actors in the allocation of funds. As development policy was not one of Italy's priorities in European integration, Somalia was initially the most neglected territory by the European Commission. Italy's passivity was countered by Somali politicians, who demanded an increase in funding as early as 1958. After independence, taking advantage of the Cold War aid competition, they won a greater commitment from the EEC, but this was far from the end of Somalia's dependence on external funding

Practical and empirical cognition of the cognitive self
Authors: KITCHER Patricia
Published: July 2024

This paper explores the different ways in which knowledge of ourselves as cognizers depends on the transcendental unity of apperception.  First, since all cognition requires the transcendental unity of apperception, so does empirical knowledge of ourselves as cognizers.  Second, since empirical cognizers are cognizers, they must possess the unity of self-consciousness required for cognition.  Third, empirical psychology needs an object and the transcendental unity of apperception makes it possible to attach ‘I-think’ to representations of the empirical world, thereby supplying psychological states, such as ‘I think that bodies are heavy,’ to be studied.  Finally, the Psychological Idea through which psychology is made systematic gets it first principle from the necessary unity of apperception.
Sexo em Kant
Authors: BORGES Maria
Published: July 2024

: In this article I will analyze the relationship that Kant establishes between sex and objectification. I will explore two points. First, I will try to locate the place that the sexual drive occupies. I will show that, in Anthropology from a pragmatic point of view, sex is not related to love as affection or passion. Secondly, I will show that to have sex with someone is to use that person as a means, opposing readings that make Kant an advocate of the non-objectification of the sexual act. Finally, I show that the juridical relationship between two people, through marriage, makes the mutual use of sexual organs ethical, even if both are used as a means and not as an end in themselves.
Republicity. Kant’s late extension oftranscendentality to politics and right
Authors: ZÖLLER Günter
Published: July 2024

The contribution investigates Kant‘s extension of transcendental-philosophical thinking from the critique of purely
theoretical reason to his late political and legal philosophy. The focus lies on the transcendental ingredients of Kant’s juridico-political thinking in general and on the “transcendental concept” and the “transcendental principle” of publicity in particular.
The first section outlines the original project of transcendental philosophy in the Critique of Pure Reason. The second sectiontracks the introduction of transcendental features outside of transcendental philosophy proper beginning in the Critique of thePower of Judgment. The third section is devoted to the role of publicity as the “transcendental principle” for a politics conformingto juridical right in Toward Perpetual Peace. The fourth section presents the distinction between private right and public right inthe Metaphysics of Morals under the quasi-transcendental perspective of rendering permanent the previously provisional claims ofprivate right by means of the institution of public right.

Universal Grammar and Universal Grammar’s Influence and Related Theories Concerning Second Language Acquisition
Authors: Shang Jing , Cui Sheng
Published: July 2024

Universal Grammar, represented by Chomsky, believes that the human brain is born with a Language Acquisition Device. Under the stimulation of the language environment, the language function of the human brain dedicated to language learning will be activated and begin to acquire a language. Universal grammar is the core idea of Chomsky's generative linguistics theory, which is composed of a limited number of syntactic principles representing the common features of human language. It is precisely because the human brain naturally generates this universal grammar that human beings can acquire their own mother tongue when language input is poor or even lacks "negative corpus" (that is, the indication of language errors or faults). Chomsky once proposed a simple language acquisition model, namely "language input —Language Acquisition Device —language acquisition", which means that language input generates grammar through Language Acquisition Device, thus acquiring language. It is worth noting that Chomsky's theory is not specifically designed for the study of Second Language Acquisition, and he himself has not given any guidance in this field, but it provides theoretical support for the theory of Second Language Acquisition (Yang Chunyuan, 2020). Hence, learning the whole semester’s course of Second Language Acquisition, having seen universal grammar as a important content in my textbook, this paper tries to integrate these related theories and make a conclusion and comment or paraphrasing（not all the bibliographies are quoted directly in this paper, paraphrased or arranged instead）based on various bibliographies.
Optimization of Solar Water Pumping Systems for Agricultural Irrigation: Comparative Analysis and Design of an Ideal Solution
Authors: Veut Djimbi Makoundi Christian Dieu Le , Shuting Wan , Bolin Zhang
Published: July 2024

This study details the optimal characteristics of these systems to design an ideal pumping solution that maximizes agricultural productivity while reducing costs and ecological footprint. The designed system is an off-grid solar pump control device equipped with an MPPT controller for 24V DC photovoltaic panels operating within a 30-48V range. This system operates directly under solar irradiation, eliminating the need for energy storage. A major innovation of this system is its ability to regulate the filling of the water tank based on the measured water flow. When sensors detect low flow, the system automatically activates the water tank recharge and stops its activity when the flow reaches a predetermined threshold, thus optimizing the efficiency of water use for irrigation. The advanced architecture of the system integrates controllers capable of compensating for solar power fluctuations and intelligent sensors to automate the pumping process according to crop water needs. This systemic approach offers a robust and sustainable method to improve water management in agricultural operations, contributing to sustainable development goals and resilience to climate change.

Authors: Jiménez José Alberto Báez , González José Carlos Hernández- , Valle Missael Alberto Román-del-
Published: July 2024

Earned Value Management (EVM) is a project management tool primarily used in engineering and project management to assess performance in terms of cost and schedule. Earned Value Management/Scheduling systems (EVM/ES) have been fundamental in project control, providing key metrics that measure deviations between planned and actual performance in terms of time and cost. However, its application as a project control technique is not very common in Mexico. In this article, EVM was applied to the intralogistics improvement of a manufacturing process in the automotive sector located in Aguascalientes, Mexico. The case study concluded in February 2024 and includes the project scope, scheduling charts, physical progress reports, and budgeted versus actual cost reports. The aim of this article is to provide practical evidence on how to apply EVM in manufacturing projects in Mexico. This will enable project professionals to more effectively utilize EVM for schedule and cost control in their manufacturing projects, with a specific emphasis on intralogistics.

The trigeminal cardiac reflex (TCR) is a unique and powerful brainstem reflex that has received a great deal of research interest. Sleep bruxism (SB) is sleep disorder that affects the TCR as well as other brainstem reflexes via stimulation of the brainstem; at the level of the gasserion ganglion (GG). TCR play an important role in sleep bruxism while an exaggerated form of this reflex could be responsible for sleep disorders. This paper will discuss the unusual relationship of Trigeminal cardiac reflex – bruxism – sleep disorders.
Justification of the Locations of Differential Pressure Sensors for Coarse and Fine Filter Elements Installed one Inside the Other in a Single Gas Filter Housing

Statement of the problem. The relevant task of ensuring the uninterrupted operation of modern gas pressure reduction systems is to develop and comprehensively substantiate the possibility of using two-stage filters for natural gas purification in gas reduction points and theoretically substantiate the method for calculating the pressure drop in cylindrical filter elements (CFE). Results. It is proved that when gas flows in the upper cross section of the filter, the pressure drop will be less than in lower cross sections, including the pressure drop in the lowest cross section. This leads to a larger amount of leaking gas, to a larger mass of impurities settling in the lower part of the filter elements of cylindrical coarse and fine cleaning and to a greater degree of their clogging. Therefore, it is recommended to place gas pressure sensors in the lower part of the internal volume of the coarse and fine-cleaned CFE, so that the flow direction of the coarse and finely purified gas washing the sensors at the location of the hole for measuring statistical pressure is tangential to the side surface of the sensor tube. Then the flow direction of the roughly and finely purified gas entering the holes of the sensors is carried out at an angle of 90° and the pressure gauges measure the static pressure. Conclusions. The locations of pressure drop sensors on coarse and fine filter elements installed one inside the other in a single gas filter housing are substantiated. The proposed arrangement of differential pressure sensors will significantly increase the possibility of receiving an earlier signal about the degree of clogging of the gas filter at the control room, as well as have a significant amount of time for timely removal of blockages formed in the coarse cleaning CFE and replacement of fine cleaning CFE.

Statement of the problem. The aim of the work is to construct a numerical model of complex radiation-convective heat exchange of the roof structures of an indoor skating rink with moist air of the upper zone to identify the dependencies of the increase in the velocity and area of condensation of water vapor on the height of the room Results. Based on the results of a numerical study of the process of complex non—stationary heat exchange of the system «surface of the floor structure — indoor air –– ice surface», theoretical dependences of the increase in the velocity and area of condensation of water vapor from the vertical coordinate under the action of radiation cooling from the ice field were obtained for the first time. Conclusions. The obtained dependences allow us to theoretically justify the choice of rational technical solutions and operating modes of ventilation and air conditioning systems in the upper zone to prevent condensation on the internal surfaces of building and enclosing structures.

Statement of the problem. The analysis of the effectiveness of the use of self-healing mixtures in cracking in operated concrete structures is carried out. Results. Various methods of restoration of exploited concrete structures during the cracking period are considered. An analysis of the physical and chemical properties of existing self-healing mixtures suitable for autonomous restoration of concrete products is presented. The study formulates the conditions under which the repair process of concrete structures is possible in autonomous conditions when using such compositions. Conclusions. The results of the study allow us to conclude that self-healing mixtures have an advantage over traditional methods of repairing concrete structures in the autonomy of the process. At the same time, the results obtained suggest that such mixtures have many conditions for their effective operation, which significantly limits the possibilities of their application in general practice.
