Exploring the potential for transdisciplinary co-production in the case of nuclear waste disposal (W11)
Authors: Schulz Wolfgang , Drögemüller Cord , Seidl Roman , Walther Clemens
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Citizen science and other transdisciplinary approaches become more important in environmental policy and within academia. Scientists benefit from citizens as they generate more socially robust knowledge. In the contested theme of nuclear waste management (NWM), such approaches can be particularly valuable, but they also face challenges. Within our transdisciplinary research project (https://www.transens.de/, last access: 12 June 2023), we work jointly with 14 citizens (citizen working group or CWG) who are interested in the topic without being activists or having a specific agenda. The CWG helps us to enrich the research process with experiential knowledge. Parallel to gaining scientific knowledge, trust can be built due to close collaboration. However, the CWG becomes more scientific over time and no longer resembles the general public. This may have positive effects, as discussions can go deeper into scientific concepts, for instance. However, the increased literacy of a CWG may be criticized for lacking impartiality. Moreover, we established a local measurement lab at the village of Remlingen near the Asse II site. This lab is open to the local public for measuring environmental samples using techniques such as gamma spectroscopy. Experts from the Institute of Radioecology and Radiation Protection (IRS) in Hanover provide assistance concerning technical and radiological questions and appropriate interpretation. One essential aim is to enable citizens to measure their own samples under scientific guidance. During the workshop, we would like to discuss the benefits and challenges of such collaborations, going beyond the aforementioned examples. Potential key questions are as follows:
How to ensure the quality of the citizens' work (measurements) and interpretation of results? Participation and in particular co-determination lead to a certain responsibility for the outcome: are the citizens aware of this and willing to assume it? To what extent is extended participation with empowerment for decision-making still in line with representative democracy? Is there a possibility for multiplication and/or upscaling of small-scale approaches? We propose a workshop (90 min) setting with a rich picture methodology (https://naturwissenschaften.ch/co-producing-knowledge-explained/methods/method_factsheets/rich_picture, last access: 12 June 2023). After brief inputs on named examples, we will work in groups of approximately five participants. Participants draw a
picture (e.g., on a whiteboard or flip chart) with a focus on the positive
results and challenges of citizen participation in research projects. After
finishing their pictures, the participants note on cue cards which findings surprised them the most. This is followed by a final discussion.
The anaerobic corrosion of the carbon steel overpack under anoxic alkaline conditions representing the Belgian supercontainer concept
Authors: Gaggiano Roberto
Published: September 2023

Abstract. The Belgian Agency for Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Materials (ONDRAF/NIRAS) is responsible for the management of all radioactive materials (currently existing and future waste) generated in Belgium. Disposal in deep stable geological formations is, at present, accepted at an international level to be the most promising option for the long-term management of high-level and/or long-lived radioactive waste. ONDRAF/NIRAS currently recommends underground disposal in a geological stable and poorly indurated clay formation as the reference management option to steer their RD&D research programmes. The supercontainer concept is currently being considered as the reference design for the final disposal of vitrified high-level radioactive waste (VHLW) and spent fuel (SF) in Belgium. It comprises a prefabricated Portland cement-based buffer that completely surrounds a carbon steel overpack. In this highly alkaline environment (pH ∼ 13.6), and under normal conditions (i.e. without the ingress of aggressive species), the carbon steel overpack will be protected by a passive oxide film, which is expected to result in very low uniform corrosion rates. The main goal of the ongoing R&D corrosion studies performed at ONDRAF/NIRAS is to provide confidence that the integrity of the carbon steel overpack will not be jeopardized at least for the duration of the thermal phase. Considering the long timescales applicable to waste disposal, determining accurate and reliable estimates of the uniform corrosion rate under anoxic conditions forms a very important part of the R&D methodology of ONDRAF/NIRAS' corrosion programme. On the other hand, the occurrence of localized forms of corrosion cannot be neglected, and therefore it is also crucial to demonstrate that no other form of corrosion apart from uniform corrosion can take place. This paper gives an overview of the status of the research performed at
ONDRAF/NIRAS with respect to the uniform corrosion, pitting corrosion and
stress corrosion cracking behaviour of the carbon steel overpack of the
supercontainer.
SpannEnD – a 3D geomechanical model of Germany for the prediction of the recent crustal stress state

Published: September 2023

Abstract. The recent crustal stress state is a crucial parameter in the search for a high-level nuclear waste repository. It is relevant not only for site selection and short-term stability during operation but also for predicting long-term safety. However, the level of knowledge in this regard is still limited in Germany. It is based on stress orientations and stress regime information from the World Stress Map (WSM) project and pointwise stress magnitude records. We present the results of a 3D geomechanical numerical model that improves the state of knowledge by providing a continuum-mechanics-based prediction of the recent crustal stress field in Germany. The model extends over an area of 1000×1250 km2, covering Germany and nearby regions. It contains 22 geological units, each parameterized with individual properties (density, Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio). We assume linear elasticity, and the finite element method is used to solve the equilibrium of forces. The model is calibrated with horizontal stress magnitude records and validated with additional data, for example, vertical stress magnitudes or data of the WSM project. Our model results are in a good agreement with a mean orientation of the maximum horizontal stress (SHmax) derived from the WSM, as indicated by a mean of the absolute differences of 12∘. Furthermore, the model results lie entirely within the standard deviation of the derived orientation of SHmax. Mean values of the absolute stress differences between calibration data and model results of 4.6 MPa for the minimum horizontal stresses (SHmin) and 6.4 MPa for the SHmax also show a good agreement. The model results can be used, for example, for the calculation of fracture
potential, for slip tendency analyses or as boundary conditions for smaller
local models. For smaller model volumes, where little or no stress information is available, it provides synthetic stress magnitude data that
can be used for calibration. As such, the model provides a valuable starting point for the detailed assessment of stability at yet-to-be-determined siting regions for a high-level nuclear waste repository.
BARIK: laboratory programme within the framework of the development of an extended Hoek–Brown-based anisotropic constitutive model for fractured crystalline rock

Published: September 2023

Abstract. The disposal of heat-generating radioactive waste in deep
geologic formations is a global concern. Numerical methods play a key role
in understanding and assessing the disposal scenarios of radioactive waste
in deep geological repositories. However, the complexities of the thermal,
hydrological, mechanical, chemical, and biological processes associated with
the disposal of radioactive waste in porous and fractured materials
constitute significant challenges. One of the most challenging issues in
this field is the complex material behaviour of fractured crystalline rock.
The presence of fractures makes the rock anisotropic, nonlinear, and
dependent on loading paths. Additionally, the Biot coefficient cannot be
considered constant throughout the critical and subcritical fracture
development regions. These factors make the development of an accurate
constitutive model for fractured crystalline hard rock a critical component
of any deep geological disposal project. Furthermore, to demonstrate the
integrity of the “containment effective rock area” in crystalline host rock,
the qualitative integrity criteria must be quantified so that numerical
simulation can be performed with concrete numerical values. Part of this
assessment for a crystalline host rock is a dilatancy criterion, which is
currently based on the Hoek–Brown constitutive model. This contribution provides an overview and first results of the laboratory
programme, which was performed as a part of the research project. The aim was
to generate a fundamental and extensive dataset for an anisotropic material
used for verification and validation purposes of the newly developed
constitutive model. The rock material for the test programme was “Freiberger
gneiss” because of its pronounced anisotropic properties regarding
deformation and strength as well as the good access to obtain a larger
amount of sample material. A wide range of basic tests have been performed,
e.g. determination of density and porosity, measurement of ultrasonic wave
velocities to get dynamic elastic properties, Brazilian tests, and uniaxial
compression tests to obtain strength data. Additionally, a large number of
more complex multi-stage triaxial compression tests with examination of the
post-failure region and hydromechanical coupled triaxial compression tests
have been conducted or are in progress. The
hydromechanical part, in particular, plays an important role in examining and quantifying the
evolution of the micromechanical damage process, which changes the
permeability and Biot coefficient and therefore the effective stresses
inside a saturated rock material. Tests were conducted with different
orientations of the structural planes in relation to the loading directions.
On the influence of initial stress on final stress in data-calibrated numerical geomechanical models

Published: September 2023

Abstract. The prognosis of the state of stress in the subsurface can be improved by
using numerical models in addition to data from stress measurements, as such models allow for consideration of variability stemming from structural
complexities and an inhomogeneous distribution of rock properties. These models are generally set up in two consecutive steps. In the first step one an initial stress is established that accounts for gravity and a reasonable ratio of horizontal to vertical stress. This represents a reference stress state in the absence of tectonic stress and ensures equilibrium with gravity: i.e. no
strain is produced once gravity acts. In the second step tectonic stress is
included via displacement boundary conditions which induce horizontal
differential stress to come up with the final stress state. Both initial
stress and tectonic stress are chosen in such a way that calibration data
are reproduced by the model at the locations and depths where the data were
measured. We present generic models to investigate whether the choice of initial and
tectonic stress affects the final state of stress in areas of the model
domain where no stress data are available. We find that there is in general
an ambiguity as different combinations of initial stress and tectonic stress yield the same final state of stress at the points where data are
available. However, in those areas of the model domain where calibration
data do not exist, these different choices of initial stress and tectonic
stress produce differing results. These deviations are largest in the
vicinity of lithological interfaces. We find that this ambiguity is reduced
if more stress data exist, particularly in not just one lithology and at one
depth. On the other hand, if more data are available, it becomes
increasingly more difficult to find a combination of initial and tectonic
stress to match them all. In view of the uncertainties of the data, such
deviations between modelled stress and data may be expectable to some
degree. However, such deviations may indicate that inelastic rock properties do play a role in some lithologies.
Stress state estimation – new data and variability assessment of model results
Authors: Reiter Karsten , Heidbach Oliver , Ziegler Moritz , Giger Silvio , Garrard Rodney , Desroches Jean
Published: September 2023

Abstract. The upper crust of the Earth is used more and more to transport and extract
raw materials and energy. It is also used for the final disposal of
radioactive waste in deep geological repositories with a particularly crucial
requirement for long-term safety over 1×106 years. An accurate
knowledge of the hosting rock and surrounding formation coupled with
comprehensive modelling is fundamental to demonstrate the geological site
has the required properties for safe and long-term underground storage.
Besides other criteria, geomechanics play an important role. Even if the
determination of rock properties is already a challenge, the estimation of
the contemporary stress state in the upper crust is even more challenging.
To predict the stress state 3-D geomechanical–numerical models are used, but high-quality underground structure, rock properties and in situ stress data for model calibration are needed. In particular, data of maximum and minimum horizontal stress magnitudes (SHmax and Shmin) are required to find suitable lateral displacement boundary conditions to produce a best-fit model. During the recent exploration phase for a deep geological repository for
radioactive waste in Switzerland, a unique dataset of stress magnitude data
has been acquired from eight cored boreholes. Rock mechanical properties
were constrained from geophysical logging and laboratory testing. The
empirically correlated rock properties were not simply averaged, but a
probability distribution was provided. The stress field was explored by
conducting more than 120 micro-hydraulic fracturing (MHF) and dry sleeve
re-opening (SR) tests in different stratigraphic units, to estimate the
magnitudes of Shmin and SHmax. We present the results of a 3-D geomechanical–numerical model that shows
the best fit with respect to the measured stress magnitudes. Considering the uncertainties of the MHF/SR tests and the ones resulting from rock property variability, the model can reproduce most of the measurements. However, we do show not only the best-fit result but also a bandwidth of individual stress components within a P05–P95 probability range. We also show that there are still outliers for this bandwidth, but we will show that these can be explained by scaling effects.
Towards conditioning discrete fracture network models: a Monte Carlo simulation approach including existing site data
Authors: Gärtner Christoph G. , Fischer-Appelt Klaus , Charlier Frank
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Crystalline rocks are inherently more or less densely permeated by fractures
at very different scales. They often represent the hydraulically dominant
flow paths compared to the low-permeable matrix. Consequently, finding
potential sites for high-level waste repositories in crystalline host rock
is challenging. Fracture inter-connectivity significantly affects
geomechanical integrity and radionuclide transport (Mönig et al., 2020).
Hence, an accurate representation of the present-day fracture system is a
prerequisite for describing future evolutions of a repository. However,
information on fracture properties is spatially limited. This shows the
necessity of combining existing fracture data and stochastic fracture
network modelling. In this manner, spaces with a lack of information can be
considered for modelling (Lei et al., 2017). In Mrugalla et al. (2020), generic geological models based on statistical
parameters were used to test the methodology for a safety analysis in
crystalline rock within the scope of the CHRISTA II project. By using
representative outcrop data, discrete fracture network (DFN) models of 2D
fractures were generated stochastically, upscaled, and mapped onto a
finite-element grid. However, individual stochastic fracture network
realizations seldom accurately represent geological reality. Additionally,
data from existing fractures must be incorporated. This work aims to understand the uncertainties regarding the location,
extent, and other geometrical properties of fractures such as the aperture
governing flow patterns. The statistical distributions of these parameters
can exhibit significant variations both laterally and depth-wise.
Uncertainties are addressed by superimposing a large set of fracture network
realizations. For this purpose, Monte Carlo methods are applied to derive a
best-guess fracture network. An approximation of the real fracture system
will require consideration of known fracture data (e.g. Dorn et al., 2013) from surface and
subsequent underground explorations. Site-specific data will be used for
demonstration purposes. The focus is on developing a holistic model based on
the DFN model and its congruence with field observations. The methodological
treatment of underlying data-collection methods, given their different
resolutions, accuracies, and restrictions, will be an important aspect. Moreover, the implications of the effects on three-dimensional radionuclide
transport will be exemplarily investigated in the generated model in the
sense of what-if scenarios. This is done with special emphasis on
matrix–fracture diffusion and adsorption as possible retention mechanisms
and parameter sensitivities such as local aperture changes.
Wet sieving and magnetic separation for the treatment of radioactive secondary waste produced from waterjet abrasive suspension cutting
Authors: Chaudhry Muhammad Junaid , Gentes Sascha , Heneka Alexander , Krauß Carla Olivia
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Dismantling of reactor pressure vessels and their built-in components is an enormous challenge in the deconstruction of a nuclear power plant. Due to the years of exposure to neutron radiation, the activated components can only be dismantled and packaged remotely. For reasons of radiation protection, preference is given to techniques that can be used underwater due to the shielding effect. A cutting method that meets these requirements is the waterjet abrasive suspension cutting technique (WAS). The cutting tool is capable of slicing metallic internals and other materials using a pure jet of water mixed with an abrasive substance at high velocity and pressure. The process offers numerous technical advantages, but it has a major disadvantage in producing secondary waste. Due to the addition of the abrasive substance, the WAS process produces a waste mixture of inactive abrasive particles and radioactive steel particles (activated by neutron radiation) during the dismantling of steel components in nuclear facilities. Since the steel particles are radioactive when the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) and its internals are dismantled, this particle mixture currently has to be disposed of as radioactive waste. This leads to a doubling of the radioactive waste. Despite the technical advantages, the WAS process used for cutting purposes is a severely disadvantage from an economic point of view, considering the significant disposal costs of the radioactive waste. The research project NaMaSK (wet sieving and magnetic separation of grain
mixtures to minimise secondary waste in the dismantling of nuclear facilities), funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), aims to separate the two fractions (abrasive and steel particles) with the help of magnetic separation and wet sieving. For this purpose, a prototype separation system MaSK (magnetic separation of grain mixtures to minimise secondary waste in the dismantling of nuclear facilities) with a magnetic filter and sieve has already been built and tested, and it can separate up to 98 % of the steel particles from the mixture. The separation process aimed to reduce the total amount of secondary waste by reusing abrasive particles for further WAS cutting. In the new test plant NaMaSK, the mode of operation will be converted from a batch process to continuous operation to highlight the economic aspect of
the separation process. In this regard, an efficient design of the sieve
structure and magnetic filter, followed by process optimisation, will be
implemented. These new developments and the first results will be presented
at the conference.
The impact of landfast sea ice buttressing on ice dynamic speedup in the Larsen-B Embayment, Antarctica

Abstract. We observe the evacuation of 11-year old land-fast sea ice in the Larsen-B Embayment on the East Antarctic Peninsula in January 2022, which was in part triggered by warm atmospheric conditions and strong offshore winds. This evacuation of sea ice was closely followed by major changes in the calving behaviour and dynamics of the ocean-terminating glaciers in the region. Following a decade of gradual slow-down, satellite measurements show that Hektoria, Green and Crane Glaciers have sped up by approximately 20–50 % since February 2022, each increasing in speed by more than 100 m a-1. Circumstantially, this is attributable to the loss of floating ice/mélange tongues and their transition into tidewater glaciers. However, a question remains as to whether the landfast sea ice itself could have acted to provide direct buttressing to the glaciers prior to its disintegration. We use diagnostic model simulations to estimate the buttressing effect of the land-fast sea ice in the Larsen-B Embayment and its impact on the speed of Hektoria, Green, Evans and Crane Glaciers. The results show that direct sea ice buttressing had a negligible impact on the dynamics of the grounded ice streams. Additionally, our results show that the loss of sea ice buttressing likely produced noticeable changes to the flow speeds of the rheologically weak ice tongues, which could have diminished their stability over time. However, as the accompanying changes in viscous stress were small compared to local spatial variation, this loss of buttressing is likely to have been a secondary process in the disintegration of the ice tongues compared to, for example, increased ocean melting or swell.
Controller design for model-scale rotors and validation using prescribed motion
Authors: Fontanella Alessandro , Daka Elio , Novais Felipe , Belloli Marco
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Aerodynamic-load calculation in aero-hydro-servo-elastic modeling tools has been recently validated against experiments for low-frequency platform motions but without considering the capability of active wind turbine controls. This work presents a control design framework that allows for including industry-standard wind turbine control functionalities in a model-scale rotor and its application to a 1:100 scaled version of the International Energy Agency (IEA) 15 MW turbine. Wind tunnel tests with a fixed foundation and steady wind show the scaled turbine reproduces the steady-state rotor speed–blade pitch–thrust–torque characteristics of the IEA 15 MW turbine, confirming the controller design method. Tests with a prescribed platform pitch motion are carried out to assess the turbine response and controller modeling in conditions representative of the normal operation of floating wind turbines. The blade element momentum model of OpenFAST is verified against the experiment, showing aerodynamic thrust and torque are predicted with higher accuracy in the below-rated than the above-rated region: in our simulation, the decrease in thrust oscillation amplitude due to blade pitch actuation is underpredicted. This, combined with uncertainty in modeling the blade pitch actuators, complicates the numerical–experimental simulation of the turbine aerodynamic response in above-rated operation.
Auschwitz Report
Authors: Baron Frank
Published: September 2023

The escape of Rudolf Vrba and Alfred Wetzler from Auschwitz on April 7, 1944, was extraordinary in its daring, courageous execution, and impact. The challenging task of the two escapees was to inform the world of previously unimaginable crimes, and to do so in a way that made the unbelievable believable. Because the deportations to Auschwitz were still in progress, it was essential to inform the threatened Jewish populations that they were slated by the Germans to be part of the “final solution.” When and how the transmission of the resulting Auschwitz Report took place, made all the difference, and that is this paper’s focus. Decisive transmissions involved secret networks in Switzerland and Hungary, taking place independently. Despite the presence of the Gestapo and the German army, finally, in early July, 1944, two independent, increasingly powerful efforts engendered by the report converged in Budapest. Only then could one of the most remarkable rescues of World War II take place. fbaron@ku.edu
Édes in the Streets, Csípős in the Sheets
Authors: Behrendt Andrew
Published: September 2023

British tourists played an oversized part in the imaginations of interwar Hungarian tourism promoters. Despite arriving in comparatively low numbers, they fell into a circle of privileged foreigners. When it came to tallying successes in attracting visitors from abroad, Anglophone tourists were “golden pheasants”: rich, glamorous, and willing to part with their precious currency—as long as they were courted in the right way. One of those ways was to manage British expectations when it came to Hungarian cuisine. Paprika was a particular cause for concern. With a reputation for intense spiciness, some tourism promoters worried that it would shock the mild Anglophone palate and attempted to reassure potential guests that Hungary would (literally) be to their taste. Yet their concern was largely unrequited. Why? My article investigates this mystery, and with it, explores the role of paprika both in promoting tourism to Hungary and in the broader management of national “branding” for foreign consumption in the uneasy postimperial cultural atmosphere. Drawing on guidebooks, travelogues, advertisements, periodicals, and films, it argues that the spice served as a symbolic marker of confidence (or lack thereof) in Hungary’s place in global affairs. behrendta@mst.edu
Absurdity and Irrationality of War in the Everyday Life of the Hinterland
Authors: Sághy Miklós
Published: September 2023

The present study examines three versions of Tóték (commonly translated as The Toth Family; literally The Tóts), the first two by István Örkény, one of Hungary’s leading twentieth-century writers: a highly successful drama from 1967, instrumental in reforming stage language in Hungary; and the 1966 novella of the same title. The third is their 1969 film adaptation, Isten hozta, őrnagy úr! (Welcome, Major), by Zoltán Fábri. The analysis of the drama and the novel focuses primarily on how a major arriving from the front during World War II brings the madness and irrationality of the war into the life of the Toth family when he stays with them for two weeks. The paper’s second part examines the film adaption, asking in particular how the film represents madness and absurdity, given their key role in the original literary sources. The situation and the fate of the Toth family can be interpreted in all three works in more general terms as well, as a model for the working mechanisms and absurdity of dictatorships anywhere, hence, even if only indirectly, of 1960s Hungary.

The transformation of the curriculum in the Linking Worlds Dialogic Pedagogy
Authors: Ferrada Donatila , Jara Espinoza Claudia , Seguel Briones Alejandra
Published: September 2023

Dialogic Pedagogy of the "Linking Worlds" is characterized by forming community classrooms incorporating a diversity of community agents who join to transform the official school curriculum in Chilean public schools. The participatory action research we report in this article was developed in two of these classrooms, one in the cultural context of a mining community and the other in a rural cultural context. The action research project aimed to make their local cultures visible in the school curriculum. Our objective was to systematize the knowledge and practices of the people who are part of community classrooms and determine whether these contributions managed to challenge the official curriculum structure. We achieved our objective in a four-year study involving 76 participants in dialogical conversations and collective dialogues. Throughout the study, we collected audiovisual records. We identified two areas of knowledge and practices that transform the official curriculum: the corporeality-affectivity and community areas. In addition, it was possible to verify that although the themes nominally coincided, the curricular transformations differed depending on the local characteristics of each classroom. These local curricular transformations promote the advancement of dialogic pedagogy because in such decisions and through egalitarian dialogue, debates, disputes, etc., different participants’ voices are heard in each community classroom. In addition, these transformations keep the debate and interpretation of school curricular contents open.

Technical Skills Influences on Front Crawl Tumble Turn Performance in Elite Female Swimmers
Authors: Puel Frédéric , Hellard Philippe , Pyne David B. , Morlier Julien
Published: September 2023

The objective of this research was to compare technical skills composed of kinematic and kinetic variables in the complex motor task of a tumble turn between 9 elites and 9 sub-elite female swimmers. The best tumble turn among three attempts was analyzed using a three-dimensional underwater protocol. A total of 37 kinematic variables were derived from a Direct Linear Transformation algorithm for 3D reconstruction, and 16 kinetic variables measured by a piezoelectric 3D force platform. Data were analyzed by Student's t-test and effect size statistics. Pearson correlations were applied to the data of the eighteen swimmers to relate the association of 53 kinematic, kinetic variables to the performance of the tumble-turn (3 meters Round Trip Time, 3m RTT). The approach and the whole turn times were faster for elite swimmers compared to sub elites (1.09±0.06 vs. 1.23±0.08 sec, and 2.89±0.07 vs. 3.15±0.11 sec.), as well as the horizontal speeds of the swimmers’ head 1 m before the rotation (1.73±0.13 vs. 1.57±0.13 m/sec.), at the end of the push-off on force platform (2.55±0.15 vs. 2.31±0.22 m/sec.) and 3 m after the wall (2.01±0.19 vs. 1.68±0.12 m/sec.). Large differences (|d| > 0.8) in favor of the elite swimmers were identified for the index of upper body extension at the beginning of the push-off, the lower limb extension index at the end of push-off, and among the kinetic variables, the horizontal impulse and lateralization of the push-off. Correlations for the whole group revealed a moderate to strong relationship between 6 body extension indices and 3mRTT performance. For the kinetic variables, the correlations indicated the fastest swimmers in 3mRTT showed large lateral impulse during placement (r=0.46), maximum horizontal force during the push-off (r=0.45) and lateralization of the push-off (r=0.44) (all p<0.05). Elite female swimmers had higher approach and push-off speeds, were more streamlined through the contact, and showed a higher horizontal impulse and lateralization of the push-off, than their sub-elite counterparts.

The scientific article describes the results of studying the myotonic properties of the water-propylene glycol extract of Potentilla erecta l., which, as it was found, is a promising means for the treatment of cows with postpartum endometritis. The contractile properties of the Potentilla extract are manifested within 40-60 min after intrauterine administration, promoting the removal of pathological exudate from the genital organs of a sick female. The use of a water-propylene glycol extract of Potentilla erecta reduces the treatment time for cows with postpartum purulent-catarrhal endometritis by 1.2 days.
