The present study aimed to assess the high-yielding sunflower hybrids responding to various fertilizer levels. The experiment was conducted . with treatments that includes five genotypes in factor A (H1: COH 3, H2: DRSH-1, H3: KBSH-74, H4: KBSH-44, and H5: CO 2) and three fertilizer levels in factor B (F1: 50 percent RDF, F2: 100 percent RDF and F3: 150 percent RDF) in a three replications factorial randomized block design The study revealed that plant height and days to maturity of sunflower showed significant differences among the hybrids and different levels of fertilizer. Days to 50 per cent flowering significantly differed among the hybrids and not by the NPK level. The newly developed sunflower hybrid COH 3 recorded a higher yield (2194 kg ha-1) with high oil content (39.8 percent) and oil yield of 875 kg ha-1. Hybrid COH 3 registered a higher gross return of Rs. 70,208/- per ha with a net return of Rs.28,202/- and a cost-benefit ratio of 1.60. Among fertilizer levels, the 150 percent RDF recorded the highest yield, which was on par with the 100 per cent RDF. In monetary terms, rupee return per rupee investment was greater than 100 percent. As a result, in the Tamil Nadu region, sunflower hybrid COH 3 cultivation with 100% fertilizer, i.e., 60:90:60 kg NPK ha-1, was shown to be economical with better oil yields.

Published: December 2022

Lipid based drug delivery systems are used to encapsulate the active substance within or interior space of the lipid bilayer. The lipid-based drug products are designed to improve the stability in-vivo and pharmacokinetics behavior of active substances. However, understanding of the factors that affect the stability is critical for rationale development of lipid based drug delivery systems with desired pharmacokinetics and bio-distribution. Lyophilization is one primary approach to improve the stability of lipid based systems. The article presents an overview of the characteristics of the lipid based drug delivery systems as drug carriers, particularly in relation to stability, regulatory considerations. Further, the present review emphasizes the formulation problems and marketed formulation of lipid-based systems.

Das Elend der Verschickungskinder
Authors: Röhl Anja
Published: December 2022

»Endlich! Anja Röhl hat ein erstes Grundlagenbuch über die gigantische Verdrängung einer kollektiven Traumatisierung von Millionen von Kindern durch Verschickungen geschrieben. Dank ihrer Beharrlichkeit und dem Mut zahlloser Betroffener beginnt nun die so notwendige Aufarbeitung.«

Karl-Heinz Brisch

Zwischen den 1950er und 1990er Jahren wurden in Westdeutschland zwischen acht und zwölf Millionen Kinder im Alter von zwei bis zehn Jahren auf kinderärztliches Anraten und auf Kosten der Krankenkassen ohne Eltern zur »Erholung« verschickt. Während der meist sechswöchigen Aufenthalte an der See, im Mittelgebirgsraum oder im Hochgebirge sollten die Kinder »aufgepäppelt« werden. Tatsächlich erlebten sie dort jedoch oft Unfassbares: Die institutionelle Gewalt, die sich hinter verschlossenen Türen ereignete, reichte von Demütigungen über physische Gewalt bis hin zu sexuellem Missbrauch. Betroffene leiden noch heute an den Folgen der erlittenen Traumata.

Anja Röhl gibt den Verschickungskindern eine Stimme und möchte die Träger ehemaliger Verschickungsheime in die Verantwortung nehmen. Sie zeigt, welches System hinter den Kinderkuren stand, und geht möglichen Ursachen für die dort herrschende Gewalt nach. Das Buch ist ein erster großer Schritt zur Aufarbeitung eines bisher unerforschten Bereichs westdeutscher Nachkriegsgeschichte und zur Anerkennung des Leids Betroffener.

Mit einem Statut zum Ernst-E.-Boesch-Preis vom Vorstand der Gesellschaft für Kulturpsychologie und einer Laudatio von Carlos Kölbl

Mit dem Erzählen kommen grundlegende psychologische Fragen ins Spiel. Wichtige Aspekte des menschlichen Bewusstseins wie Erfahrung, Erinnerung, Denken, Imagination sind ebenso narrativ geprägt wie unsere Vorstellungen von Selbst, Identität und Zeit. Das gilt auch für unser Leben als Ganzes: Wie wir es verstehen, wie wir es leben und leben könnten – diese Fragen stellen sich nicht unabhängig von dem narrativen Gewebe unserer Kultur mitsamt all der Geschichten, die wir erzählen, die uns umgeben und in die wir verstrickt sind. So verortet Jens Brockmeier in den prägnanten Studien dieses Buches das Erzählen als Lebensform.

Published: December 2022

Целью работы была оценка влияния совместного применения аторвастатина и α-кальцидола (α-К) на размеры вновь образованной костной ткани и количество сосудов в бедренной и нижнечелюстной костях крыс. Беспородным крысам-самцам ежедневно, внутрижелудочно, 6 месяцев вводили аторвастатин (10 мг/кг) и α-К (0,1 мкг/кг). Контролем служили интактные животные, «плацебо», животные, получавшие только аторвастатин и только α-К. Показано, что стресс внутрижелудочного введения зонда (группа плацебо) уменьшает количество сосудов бедренной кости в среднем на 18 %, p = 0,024. Аторвастатин и α-К устраняют негативное действие стресса. Аторвастатин и α-К, вводимые совместно, увеличивают размеры вновь образованной костной ткани со стороны эндоостальной поверхности в среднем на 42,8 %, p = 0,0075 и не оказывают влияния на костную ткань челюсти. α-К увеличивает размеры вновь образованной костной ткани со стороны периоста бедренной кости в среднем на 56,36 %, p = 0,004 и увеличивает количество сосудов костной ткани нижней челюсти в среднем на 55,77 %, p = 0,0089 по сравнению с группой «плацебо».

Published: December 2022

Tüm toplumu etkileyen iklim değişikliğinin etkilerini azaltmak ve daha sürdürülebilir bir dünya inşa etmek için üniversitelere önemli sorumluluklar düşmektedir. Bu konuda üniversitelerin başta öğrenciler ve çalışanlar olmak üzere tüm toplumu bilgilendirmesi ve bu kesimlerin farkındalığının gelişmesine öncü olması; yenilikçi çalışmalar yaparak ve teknolojiler geliştirerek iklim değişikliğinin etkisini azaltmada ve daha sürdürülebilir bir dünya inşa etmede önemli roller üstlenmesi beklenmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’deki üniversitelerin stratejik planlarını GreenMetric göstergeleri ile inceleyerek Türkiye’deki üniversitelerin yeşil vizyon düzeyini göstermektir. Buna göre Türkiye’deki birçok üniversite GreenMetric sıralamalarına katılmasına ve birçok çevreci programa dahil olmasına rağmen, yeşil vizyonları oldukça düşüktür. Üniversitelerin yüzde 90’ının yeşil vizyon endeks puanı 100 üzerinden 15’in altında; su, atıklar ile eğitim ve araştırma alanlarında yeşil vizyon puanı ise 10 puanın da altındadır. Bulgulara göre, Türkiye’de İTÜ hariç hiçbir üniversite orta noktanın üzerinde bir endeks puanına sahip değildir. Sonuç olarak iklim değişikliğinin etkileri ve üniversitelerin bu süreçteki önemi dikkate alındığında üniversiteler, yeşil kampüs inşa etme konusunda bütüncül bir politika geliştirmeli ve kampüslerini sürdürülebilirlik ilkeleri ekseninde düzenlemelidirler.

Published: December 2022

Sahte yüz bulunan görüntü ve video içerikleri en yaygın dijital manipülasyon türüdür. Genellikle eğlence amaçlı üretilen bu içerikler zararlı sonuçlar doğurabilir. Sahte yüz görüntüsü üretiminde makine öğrenmesi algoritmaları kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Makine öğrenmesi algoritmaları ile gerçeğe oldukça yakın yüz manipülasyonları yapılabilmektedir. Bu nedenle gerçek ile sahte içeriklerin ayırt edilebilmesi oldukça zorlaşmıştır. Yüz manipülasyonları tüm yüz sentezi, kimlik değiştirme, nitelik manipülasyonu ve ifade değiştirme olmak üzere 4 temel gruba ayrılır. Tüm yüz sentezi ile çekişmeli üretici ağlar kullanılarak gerçekte olmayan yüzler üretilmektedir. Kimlik değiştirme video içerisindeki kişinin yüz görüntüsünün başka bir yüz ile değiştirilmesidir. Nitelik manipülasyonu yüzün cilt, cinsiyet, yaş, gözlük, saç rengi vb. özelliklerinin değiştirilmesidir. İfade değiştirme manipülasyon yöntemi kişinin yüz ifadesinin değiştirilmesidir. Yapılan çalışmada tüm yüz sentezi manipülasyon yöntemi ile üretilen sahte yüz görüntülerinin tespiti için hafif evrişimsel sinir ağları kullanılmıştır. Eğitim işlemi için MobileNet, MobileNetV2, EfficientNetB0 ve NASNetMobile algoritmaları kullanılmıştır. Kullanılan veri setinde FFHQ veri setindeki 70.000 gerçek görüntü ile FFHQ veri seti kullanılarak StyleGAN2 ile üretilen 70.000 sahte görüntü yer almaktadır. Eğitim işleminde modellerin ImageNet veri seti üzerinde eğitilmiş ağırlıkları transfer öğrenme ile tekrar kullanılmıştır. EfficientNetB0 algoritmasında %93,64 başarı oranı ile en yüksek doğruluk oranına ulaşılmıştır.

Published: December 2022

Yüzyıllardır süregelen yazarı belirsiz metinler sorunu, internet çağının başlamasıyla oldukça artmıştır. Bu durumun en büyük sebebi internetteki verilerin çok yüksek oranını yapısal olmayan verilerin oluşturması ve bu yapısal olmayan verilerin de büyük bir bölümünü sınıflandırılmamış, yazarları belirsiz metinlerin oluşturmasıdır. Son yıllarda yapılan sınıflandırma işlemlerinde makine öğrenmesi yöntemlerinin kullanılması, yazar tanıma problemlerine yeni bir bakış açısı getirmiştir. Bu çalışmada makine öğrenmesi yöntemleri kullanılarak yazar tanıma problemi için web tabanlı arayüze sahip uçtan uca bir uygulama geliştirilmiştir. Sınıflandırma işlemi için 37 yazarın köşe yazılarından oluşturulmuş 46715 metin verisi içeren bir derlem kullanılmıştır. Bu derlemden TF-IDF yöntemi kullanılarak öznitelikler çıkarılmış ve bir veri kümesi elde edilmiştir. Daha sonra veri kümesi, Destek Vektör Makineleri (DVM), NB (NB) ve RO (RO) gibi makine öğrenme algoritmaları ile eğitilmiş ve test edilmiştir. Test sonucunda, DVM %90 doğruluk oranıyla en iyi performansı gösteren sınıflandırıcı model olmuştur. Elde edilen DVM modeline, Python programlama dilinin kütüphanelerinden olan Flask kullanılarak bir web arayüzü geliştirilmiştir. Son olarak uygulama, kararlı ve dağıtıma uygun bir halde çalıştırılması amacıyla Docker konteynerına dönüştürülmüştür. Sonuç olarak, uçtan uca geliştirilen bir yazar tanıma uygulaması doğrudan son kullanıcı tarafından kullanılabilir biçimde sunulmuştur. Makine öğrenmesi desteğiyle web tabanlı böyle bir uygulamanın oluşturulması, yazar tanıma çalışmasını daha anlamlı ve kullanılabilir hale getirmiştir.

Authors: Koç Ebru M.
Published: December 2022

The aim of this study is to examine the opinions of university students in higher education institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic period about the basic features that a learning management system (LMS) should have, in nine dimensions: communication and interaction, productivity tools, collaboration tools, management tools, course delivery tools, content development tools, hardware compatibility, reporting, and language support). A total of 125 university students studying in different faculties and departments of 12 universities in various regions of Turkey participated in the study. The data were collected using various social media tools via a questionnaire prepared in Google Forms. According to the results of the study, although some students stated that they did not have any knowledge about the features of the LMS that they used, they stated that they were able to use all the features of the LMS effectively. The percentage of students who expressed a positive opinion about the nine features of the LMS they used varied between 36.8% and 53.6%. Some students also stated that they had no knowledge of the features of the LMS they used. The results of this study reveal that there is still a lack of knowledge and use regarding the functions of LMSs used by students. These results highlight the importance of making more effective use of LMSs, which play an important role in distance education.

There has been a rise of interest in mindfulness and its effects on the educational context during the last several decades. The research study aims to investigate the effects of mindfulness training on EFL students’ level of speaking anxiety, willingness to speak in the target language, and their levels of mindfulness awareness. The perceptions of participants were also investigated in this study. In total, 41 sophomore students who were studying in the Aviation Management Department (20 in the experimental group, 21 in the control group) participated in the study. The participants were taking General English Courses for 8 hours every week in one of the state universities in the Black Sea Region, Turkey. To reduce the risk of bias, the data were gathered at different times and from multiple sources; questionnaires, and interviews. For quantitative data, the Turkish adapted versions of the Mindfulness Attention and Awareness Scale (MAAS), Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS), and Willingness to Communicate Scale (WTC) were utilized as pre and post-tests. For qualitative data, Semi-structured Interviews were conducted. The findings of the study revealed that mindfulness had a positive effect on participants’ willingness to speak, their speaking anxiety levels, and their mindfulness-awareness levels. Qualitative data also showed that the participants got huge benefits not only in the English language learning context but also in different areas of their lives.
Use of remote-sensing to quantify the distribution of progradation/erosion along a forced-regressive modern coastline: driving factors and impact on the stratigraphic record
Authors: Zuchuat Valentin , Poyatos-Moré Miquel , Nyberg Bjorn , Nanson Rachel A. , Sagar Stephen , Lymburner Leo , Bishop-Taylor Robbi
Published: December 2022

The long-term development of ancient and modern coastal distributary distributive fluvial systems (DFSs) during periods of relative sea-level highstand or fall usually drives net-progradation of shorelines. Such systems often develop in periods of relative sea-level highstand or fall and typically record annual to millennial-scale deviations in coastal trajectories. A new continental dataset (Digital Earth Australia Coastlines: DEA Coastlines) provides an opportunity to examine such variations in coastal behaviour over annual to decadal scales (1988-2019) at local to continental spatial scales. This dataset is herein applied to the 655 km coastline fronting Australia’s largest amalgamated coastal distributary distributive fluvial systems, which is situated in the epicontinental seaway of the Gulf of Carpentaria in the north of the continent. Despite the overall forced regressive conditions (i.e. progradation during relative sea-level fall), only 54% of this coastlines length net-prograded, whereas 47% was eroded. Though temporal cyclicity in progradation and erosion is evident along segments of this coast, these patterns could not be correlated with either the Southern Oscillation Index (R2 = -0.20) or rainfall (R2 = 0.24). Instead, short-term coastline dynamics appear to be the result of complex interactions between fluvial, wave, longshore current, and tidal processes. The high-resolution DEA Coastlines dataset highlights the diachronous, heterochronous, composite, and amalgamated nature of net-progradational stratigraphic strata that can develop in shallow-marine environments where hinge-points between progradating and retrograding coastal segments are dynamic features that migrate with time. Our conclusions show that shorelines display granular temporal and spatial deviations in coastal trajectory, with contemporaneous progradation and erosion occurring over 1-100 km length scales. This is significantly more heterogeneity than previously envisaged, thereby suggesting the need for updating models of coastal systems.
How Partisan Crowds Affect News Evaluation
Authors: Jakesch Maurice , Koren Moran , Evtushenko Anna , Naaman Mor
Published: December 2022

Social influence is ubiquitous in politics and online social media. Here we explore how social signals from partisan crowds influence people's evaluations of political news. For example, are liberals easily persuaded by a liberal crowd, while resisting the influence of conservative crowds? We designed a large-scale online experiment (N=1,000) to test how politically-annotated social signals affect participants' opinions. In times rife with misinformation and polarization, our findings are optimistic: the mechanism of social influence works across political lines, that is, liberals are reliably influenced by majority-Republican crowds and vice versa. At the same time, we replicate findings showing that people are inclined to discard news claims that are inconsistent with their political views. Considering that people show negative reactions to politically dissonant news but not to social signals that oppose their views, we point to the possibility of depolarizing social rating systems.
Assessing therapeutic response to methylphenidate among children and adolescents with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Narrative Review of its effects on emotional regulation, executive functions, and quality of life
Authors: Saveliev Ivgeny , Shahar Nitzan
Published: December 2022

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a relatively common neurodevelopmental disorder that is often accompanied, in addition to its core symptoms, by a myriad of impairments in at least some emotion regulation (ER) and executive function (EF) abilities that together translate to quality of life (QoL) impairments. Stimulants and methylphenidate in particular, have been shown to alleviate both core ADHD symptoms and some of these accompanying impairments. The objective of this review is to highlight some of the recent systematic and meta-analytic literature that discusses methylphenidate’s therapeutic effects on ADHD symptoms, ER and EF as well as its impact on the QoL of children and adolescents with ADHD. Methylphenidate’s effects have shown to be significant in terms of symptom reduction (e.g, Standard mean difference (SMD) = 0.78), ER (e.g., Cohen’s d = 0.84) and QoL (e.g., SMD = 0.61) improvement with effect sizes ranging from medium to large while its effects on EFs were relatively modest (e.g., SMD = 0.21-0.62) with effect sizes ranging from small to medium. Specifically, working memory updating showing a low effect size (e.g., SMD = 0.26), inhibitory control ranging from low to moderate with the majority showing a low effect size (e.g., SMD = 0.29), and cognitive flexibility with a moderate effect size (e.g., SMD = 0.62). In addition, Methylphenidate has shown to be less likely to be discontinued due to inefficacy, displaying good acceptability, and without significant concerns of discontinuation due to intolerability when compared to placebo. In conclusion, Methylphenidate has been shown to reduce core symptoms, improve ER, EFs, and QoL to varying degrees with conceptual and methodological issues tapering off effects as well as conclusions.
Masked priming under the Bayesian microscope: Exploring the integration of local elements into global shape through Bayesian model comparison

To investigate whether local elements are grouped into global shapes in the absence of awareness, we introduced two different masked priming designs (e.g., the classic dissociation paradigm and a trial-wise probe and prime discrimination task) and collected both objective (i.e., performance based) and subjective (using the perceptual awareness scale [PAS]) awareness measures. Prime visibility was manipulated using three different prime-mask stimulus onset asynchronies (SOAs) and an unmasked condition. Our results showed that assessing prime visibility trial-wise heavily interfered with masked priming producing no prime facilitation effects. The implementation of Bayesian regression models, which predict priming effects for participants whose awareness levels are at chance level, provided strong evidence in favor of the hypothesis that local elements group into global shape in the absence of awareness for SOAs longer than 50 ms, suggesting that prime-mask SOA is a crucial factor in the processing of the global shape without awareness.

Twenty years after 9/11, the impact of terrorism on social and political attitudes remains unclear. Several large-scale surveys suggest that terrorism has no discernible effects on direct, self-report measures of prejudice towards Arab-Muslims. However, direct measures may lack the sensitivity to detect subtle underlying attitudes that are considered socially unacceptable to openly express. To tap these subtle reactions, we assessed more sensitive and implicit measures of the cognitive–affective aspects of prejudice. Building on the justification-suppression model of prejudice, we hypothesized that terrorist attacks increase implicit bias towards Arab-Muslims, especially among individuals who are unable to regulate automatic hostile reactions due to personality or situational variables. Study 1, using data from Project Implicit (N = 276,311), showed that terrorist attacks increased implicit bias but not expressed prejudice towards Arab-Muslims. Study 2, using data from Google Trends, showed that terrorist attacks increased anti-Islamic searches on the Internet. Four studies that collected original data (Total N = 851) showed that the effects of reminders of terrorism on anti-Islamic implicit bias are moderated by individual differences in prejudice and automaticity (Studies 3–4); by the strength of implicit Muslim–terrorist associations (Study 5); and by momentary self-control depletion (Study 6). Overall, the present research indicates that despite little evidence for elevated overt expression of prejudice against Arab-Muslims following terrorist attacks, terrorist attacks increase anti-Islamic implicit bias whenever individuals are unlikely to control automatic hostile reactions.
Testing predictive coding theories of autism spectrum disorder using models of active inference

Published: December 2022

Several competing neuro-computational theories of autism have emerged from predictive coding models of the brain. These accounts have a common focus on the relationship between prior beliefs and sensory inputs as a mechanism for explaining key features of autism, yet they differ in exactly how they characterise atypicalities in perception and action. We tested these competing predictions using computational modelling of two datasets that allowed us to probe both visual and motor aspects of active inference: manual gripping forces during object lifting and anticipatory eye movements during a naturalistic interception task. We compared estimated belief trajectories between autistic and neurotypical individuals to determine the underlying differences in active inference. We found no evidence of chronic deficits in the use of priors or weighting of sensory information during object lifting. Differences in prior beliefs, rates of belief updating, and the precision weighting of prediction errors were, however, observed for anticipatory eye movements. Notably, we observed autism-related difficulties in flexibly adapting learning rates in response to environmental change (i.e., volatility). These findings suggest that aberrant encoding of precision and context-sensitive adjustments provide a better explanation of autistic perception than generic attenuation of priors or persistently high precision prediction errors.

Published: December 2022

The DFT approach was used to investigate the antihypertensive molecule (S)-2-amino-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)- 2-methyl-propanoic acid at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. The electron-hole analysis of three excited states has been performed, in which the maximum charge transfer length (2.727Å) has been calculated for the first excited state and the minimum for the third excited state (1.626 Å). On the other hand, the electron-hole overlap is found to be almost negligible for the first excited state and it is found to be maximum for the second excited state. The variation of thermodynamic properties with temperature is studied. The correlation graphs are obtained between the thermodynamic quantities (heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy) and temperature with a very high value of R2 (>0.99). The values of dipole moment, mean polarizability, anisotropy of polarizability, first hyperpolarizability and second hyperpolarizability are found to be 3.5250 Debye, 12.6980×10−24esu, 19.8162×10−24esu, 0.9017×10−30esu and -0.0412×10−35esu, respectively. These values are higher than the value of urea.

Authors:   Vietnamese Archaeological Association, Nguyen Khac Su
Published: December 2022

This article presents the basic content of the prehistoric marine cultures in Vietnam in the Middle Neolithic including Cai Beo culture, Trang An relic complex, Da But culture, and Quynh Van culture as well as Late Neolithic marine cultures including Ha Long, Hoa Loc, Bau Tro, and Xom Con. This study clarifies human adaptation to changes in the ecological environment in each region, the cultural achievements of inhabitant groups in these localities, and the position of communities in the coastal plains during the formulation and development of Vietnam’s prehistoric marine culture. Today, Vietnam’s marine region has been under the influence of rising sea levels. Rising sea levels would lead to the disappearance of archaeological sites as it did in late Pleistocene. Evidently, prehistoric sites of the marine cultures of Vietnam have played a particularly important role in the socio-economic development of Vietnam, which needs to be studied, protected, and brought into play.

Published: December 2022

This study was conducted to investigate the impact level of board characteristics on the dividend payout ratio of firms listed on the Vietnam Stock Exchange. Data were collected from 321 listed firms during the period of 2014 to 2019. The results of the generalised least squares (GLS) method show that board ownership has a negative impact on the dividend payout ratio. In addition, the findings also support agency theory on the negative relationship of chief executive officer duality and dividend payout ratio. Besides, the proportion of female members was also found to have a negative effect on dividend payout ratios of listed firms. Based on these findings, some recommendations are proposed for listed firms such as i) consider regulations on the share ownership level of members of the board of directors, ii) separate the two positions of chairman and chief executive officer, and iii) consider a reasonable board of director structure when deciding to increase the number of female members on the board of directors.

Published: December 2022

Recently, the fast development of science and technology has impacted many social relations. On which, giving birth with assisted reproductive technology in general and gestational surrogacy, in particular, is one of the countless legal issues being strongly influenced by different scientific, technological, medical, and/or biological factors. This is also a matter of concern in many legal systems across nations all over the world each with very different legal views. In fact, gestational surrogacy is a legal issue that attracts various opposing opinions and causes a lot of controversies. Within the scope of this article, the authors focus on analysing gestational surrogacy under the legislative views of nations representing groups of different outlooks. Thereby, based on assessments of the current provisions of countries around the world, the authors propose recommendations to improve the law on altruistic gestational surrogacy in Viet Nam.
Microstructures and Electrochemical Behavior of LSM Cathode with a Structured Electrolyte Modified by Flame Spraying

Published: December 2022

Plasma-sprayed yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) can be potentially employed as electrolyte coating in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The formation of a convex coating surface with semi-melted particles will increase the specific surface area and subsequently improve the output performance of SOFCs. However, using completely molten YSZ particles during plasma spraying leads to the formation of locally flat surface owing to the spreading of the liquid droplets on impact. In this study, flame spraying was employed to deposit YSZ particles on YSZ substrate using surface-melted particles. 4.5 mol% YSZ powder particles were used as spray materials. The deposition was carried out at different spray distances on the YSZ substrate preheated to 650 °C. The surface morphology of YSZ particles was characterized by SEM. The bonding of YSZ particles with the underlying YSZ substrate was examined from cross section. The electrochemical behavior of a single cell with a structured cathode was analyzed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that spray distance has significant influence on the morphology of deposited YSZ particles. The cathode polarization of a structured cathode was decreased by about 30% compared to a flat cathode.

The aim of this work is to measure the optical reflective properties of plasma sprayed ceramic coatings on glass substrates. The coatings are made with Al2O3-TiO2 powders and are assessed by scanning them with an optical computer mouse. It is shown that mouse movements are smoother on ceramic surfaces than on a standard test pad and tracking performance is more stable, indicating that the reflective properties of ceramic-coated glass are better than those of a typical mouse pad. The ceramic coatings are also shown to have the potential to improve resolution in image recording devices.
