Published: March 2022

In this study, performance tests of drip irrigation systems were carried out in cherry orchards of some farmers in Ankara. Accordingly, measurements were made on the day of irrigation in the lateral and manifold pipes of the drip irrigation systems used by the farmers. Within the scope of the research, Distribution Uniformity, Emission Uniformity, Application Efficiency, Potential and Actual Application Efficiency measurements were made in drip irrigation systems in 10 different cherry orchards. For this purpose, 4 different dripper points were determined on at least 4 lateral lines in each manifold line. Each lateral pipe and dripper point was chosen to be at the beginning of the line, 1/3 of the line, 2/3 of the distance and at the end of the line. Measurements were made on farmers’ irrigation days and under farmer conditions. According to the obtained results, the CU value was between 77.5%- 93.0%, DU value between 60.1%- 86.9%, EU value between 56.7%- 84.5% and CV value between 0.09- 0.28. As a result of the research, it has been determined that there are important design and application problems in drip irrigation systems.
COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and shaming on TikTok: A multimodal appraisal analysis
Authors: Van Poucke Margo
Published: March 2022

This
article investigates the issues of vaccine hesitancy and shaming,
which arose in response to the implementation of World Health
Organization (WHO) COVID-19 recommendations, on the social media
platform of TikTok. By extending appraisal theory to include the use
of visual attitudinal appraisals, the study examines the semiotic
resources employed by TikTok users within the overarching context of
the pandemic. A total of 254 videos expressing pro- and
anti-vaccination viewpoints, posted by American and Australian users
between 1 January 2021 and 31 January 2022, were extracted from the
social network and subjected to a computer-assisted analysis. The
study shows that vaccine hesitancy on the social networking service
(SNS) is fuelled by the echo chamber effect, while any vaccine
shaming on the platform may be seen as conspicuous virtue-signalling.
The speakers’ evaluative language is mostly positive, since their
main objective is to elicit the approval of members belonging to the
same sub-cultural group. A few suggestions are made to reduce the
impact of echo chambers and to encourage scientific literacy among
TikTok users.

A comparison of different approaches for estimating cross-lagged effects from a causal inference perspective
Authors: Lüdtke Oliver , Robitzsch Alexander
Published: March 2022

This article compares different approaches for estimating cross-lagged effects with a cross- lagged panel design under a causal inference perspective. We distinguish between models that rely on no unmeasured confounding (i.e., observed covariates are sufficient to remove confounding) and latent variable-type models (e.g., random intercept cross-lagged panel model) that use parametric assumptions to adjust for unmeasured time-invariant confounding by including additional latent variables. Simulation studies confirm that the cross-lagged panel model provides biased estimates of the cross-lagged effect in the presence of unmeasured confounding. However, the simulations also show that the latent variable-type approaches strongly depend on the specific parametric assumptions, and produce biased estimates under different data-generating scenarios. Finally, we discuss the role of the longitudinal design and the limitations of assessing model fit for estimating cross-lagged effects.

Poverty, Migration and Literature from below
Authors: Mahbub Rifat
Published: March 2022

In neoliberal global economy, poverty is often theorised as an eradicable economic issue, partly depending on a poor country’s domestic and bilateral policies and partly on poor people’s initiatives (Kiely 2005). An individual’s migration to sell labour in a relatively rich country is considered a powerful personal strategy to make a leap from ‘poverty to prosperity’, affecting the migrant’s both local and national economy (The World Bank Report 2018). Labour migration is intricately linked with a person’s wider context of collective histories of aspirations, struggles and resistance. Using literary materials published in English (translated from Bangla) by Bangladeshi labour migrant poets and writers in Singapore, this paper analyses the centrality of these written texts to recreate migrants’ personal histories within their individual journey of poverty eradication. In such narratives, amigrant often appears as a precarious self being caught in a myriad of uncertainties in a foreign land. Thus, their narratives become a tool to destabilise the binary categories of a migrant’s home country as poor and the host country as rich. Instead, a labour migrant’s perception of poverty and material inequalities is expressed through what I call ‘literature from below’ where creative words become a political tool to resist any a-historical categorisation of labour migrant, poverty and its eradication. The words emerging from labour migrants’ lived experiences represent them both as agencies of eradicating poverty and workers living in an uncertain condition of economic and social precarity.
Modernism and Postmodernism: Objectivation of the Content of Phenomena
Authors: Opanasiuk Oleksandr
Published: March 2022

The phenomena of modernism and postmodernism are studied. Modernism and postmodernism are analyzed in the context of the project Modern, which belongs to European culture and determines its development in the direction of modernization of history. It was found that the dynamics of the Modern project is determined by four phases of development, they largely coincide with the periods of formation of European culture: 14th –16th — the first phase of development of the Modern project (5th – 16th centuries — symbolic period of European culture); 17th – 18th centuries — the second phase of the Modern project (17th – 18th centuries — classical period of European culture); 19th century — the third phase of the Modern project (19th century – romantic period of European culture); late 19th – 21 st centuries — the fourth phase of the Modern project (late 19th – 21 st centuries — intentional period of European culture). This objectifies modernism and postmodernism as phenomena, the content of which is determined by the final phase of the Modern project and the final (intentional) period of European culture. Emphasis is placed on the possibility of interpreting modernism and postmodernism as one phenomenon — modernism-postmodernism. It is stated that postmodernism correctly defines the content of cultural and artistic life of the present, but does not explain the laws of cultural formation, bypasses the future development of culture and art, focuses on its concepts and resorts to semantic transformations of the idea of “afterˮ: afterpostmodernism, after non-classical thinking, theses such as postmodernism after modernism, etc. This explains the limitations and inability of postmodernism to cultural creativity. Comparing the semantic foundations of the theory of modernism and postmodernism with the concept of intentionalism of culture and art opens a new perspective in the analysis and ontology of modern and postmodern intentions and cultural and artistic life in general.

Published: March 2022

The mucilage from the seeds of Lallemantia royleana family Labiatae was extracted and subjected to preformulation study for evaluation of its suitability for use as suspending agent. Furosemide suspensions were prepared using (1.5% w/v) of the extracted Lallemantia royleana mucilage, (1.5% w/v) chitosan and (0.35% w/v) xanthan gum. The mucilage was white in color and the average yield of dried mucilage obtained from L.royleana nutlets was 14 % w/w of the seeds used. It is sparingly soluble in water but swells in contact with it, giving a highly viscous solution. It is slightly acidic to neutral. It was found that the extracted natural mucilage of Lallemantia royleana exhibited a higher viscosity profile and it exhibited better mucoadhesive property in comparison to chitosan, Carbopol 934 and hydroxypropyl - methylcellulose. The result showed that the suspension of furosemide prepared with 1.5 % w/v of the extracted mucilage was found to be ideal and comparable with the other two preparations of xanthan gum 0.35% w/v and chitosan 1.5% w/v. The study revealed that the mucilage of Lallemantia royleana has good properties to be used as a suspending agent and the performance is comparable with that of chitosan and xanthan gum since it is of natural origin, non-toxic, and of good biocompatibility.

Key words: mucilage; polymer; excipient; drug delivery; suspension; Lallemantia royleana.

As environmental concerns grow, flotation researches, particularly for the recovery of fine-grained ores, encourage "bioflotation" studies, in which biological origin alternatives are used instead of traditional flotation reactives. While bioflotation applications starting from the pyrite mineral have spread to many carbonate and oxide minerals over time, and biomaterials used as a bioreagent have diversified from the microorganism itself to its metabolites and even cell components.

In this article, the use of surfactin derived from Bacillus subtilis as a bio-collector in the flotation of magnesite was investigated. The results of bioflotation studies were compared to those of oleate, traditional magnesite collector. Moreover, process models were created with statistical design methods, and the verification results of the optimization studies using model datas showed that these models were statistically strong.
Experimental investigation on the mechanical behavior of concrete reinforced with Alfa plant fibers
Authors: Messas Tidjani , Achoura Djamel , Abdelaziz Boutrid , Mamen Belgacem
Published: March 2022

Currently, the reinforcement of ordinary concrete with synthetic fibers poses ecological problems because the manufacturing process of these products is very polluting. Plant fiber composites are a new challenge for environmental protection. The present article aims to investigate the mechanical behavior of concrete reinforced with natural fibers, called alfa fibers. Compression and three-point bending tests have been performed on cubic and prismatic samples, respectively. Different fiber lengths (2.5, 5, and 8 cm) and content (0.6, 1.2, and 1.8%by volume) of alfa fibers have been used to examine their influence on the mechanical behavior of the fiber-reinforced concrete. The obtained results show that for a volume content of 1.2% of plant fibers of 5 cm length, the tensile strength of the reinforced concrete increases up to 54.41% compared to the ordinary concrete (BT). However, for content of 1.8% of fibers with 8 cm length, both the compressive and tensile strength of the reinforced concrete decrease slightly. At this level, an excess of both fiber content and their length produces the formation of voids within concrete. Moreover, such an excess made the hydration reaction slower. It is worth noticing that the orientation of fibers also plays a significant role in the nucleation and propagation of microcracks. The fibers arranged both horizontally and obliquely are more resistant to microcracking than those oriented in the loading direction.
The investigation of additive manufacturing and moldable materials to produce railway ballast grain analogs

Published: March 2022

The size and shape of individual grains, play an important role in the mechanical behavior of granular materials such as the strength and stability of railway ballast. The aim of this research is to study materials from which uniform, reproducible grains with irregular convex geometry can be created by molding and additive manufacturing technologies in order to create reproducible artificial assemblies that can be used in experiments. Packings with determined grain shape results more controlled investigations contrarily to using natural grains with random geometry. Specimens were made from railway ballast materials, materials used in the construction industry, additively manufactured and molded polymers, and certain low-strength materials. Uniaxial compression and bending tests were conducted on these specimens. The mechanical properties of typical railway ballast materials (basalt and andesite) were compared with the properties of artificially produced materials. The results show that for grain reproduction the molding technology is recommended with the use of polyester-crushed stone composite and ceramic powder. Furthermore, the additive manufacturing was recommended with PolyJet or Multi Jet Fusion technology as they have the feasibility to produce grains with similar material properties to the properties of basalt and andesite.
Microstructure and anisotropic tensile performance of 316L stainless steel manufactured by selective laser melting
Authors: Wang Lin
Published: March 2022

The selective laser melting (SLM) technology is widely used to manufacture 316L stainless steel (SS) components for industrial applications. To understand the microstructure and the mechanical properties of additively manufactured 316L alloy, bulk materials were fabricated in longitudinal and transverse directions from which subset tensile specimens were then machine. Bulk materials were subjected to porosity detection with X-ray computed tomography and texture analysis with electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Microstructural investigations reveal that the SLM-built specimens had a porosity of 1.87%, and a preferential {110} orientation parallel to the build direction. The transverse specimens show significantly better properties in elastic modulus E (215.1±4.7GPa), yielding stress σy (548.2±8.3MPa) and ultimate tensile strength UTS (705.6±2.9MPa) than the longitudinal ones (E of 175.9±9.8GPa, σy of 495.3±15.5 and UTS of 608.8±3.6MPa). The anisotropic mechanical performance was attributed to the preferential {110} texture caused by thermal conditions during manufacturing and the embedded voids due to insufficient melting. A three-parameter Weibull distribution was adopted to further describe the mechanical anisotropy of SS316L based on stochastic experimental measurements. Fractography indicated the existence of manufacturing defects drive to premature failure of SS316L specimens—around half SS316L specimens failed of elongation less than 0.4.

Published: March 2022

This study investigates the impact of aggregate and pipe cooling systems on concrete behaviour at a mesoscale level. Firstly, a Chemo-Thermo-Mechanical model is developed to investigate the initial stress state of early age hydration concrete followed by a mechanical analysis of the consequences brought by this initial state. Pipe and aggregate cooled concrete samples have been subjected to tensile and cyclic loadings. The results have been discussed in terms of damage and crack openings. It has been concluded that early age hydration modifies the initial conditions of any concrete structures. Regarding the cyclic behaviour, initial state due to the hydration process leads to permanent displacements corresponding to damage and cracking. The cooling methods improve the mechanical behaviour of concrete.

Published: March 2022

The evaluation of the seismic vulnerability of existing buildings is becoming very significant nowadays, especially for ancient masonry structures, that represent the cultural and historical heritage of our countries. In this research, the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta in Catanzaro (Italy) is analyzed to evaluate its structural response. The main physical properties of the constituent materials were deduced from an extensive diagnostic campaign, while the structural geometry and the construction details were derived from an accurate 3D laser scanner survey. A global dynamic analysis, based on the design response spectrum, is performed on a finite element model for studying the seismic response of the structure. Moreover, a local analysis is conducted to evaluate the safety factors corresponding to potential failure mechanisms along preassigned failure surfaces. Furthermore, pushover analyses are performed on macro-elements, properly extracted from the whole structure and with an independent behavior with regard to seismic actions. A novel model based on inter-element fracture approach is used for the material nonlinearity and its results are compared with a well-known classical damage model in order to point out the capability of the method. Finally, the results obtained with the three different models are compared in terms of seismic vulnerability indicators.

Published: March 2022

The description of Hephaestus’ workshop in Iliad 18 presents several kinds of fanciful automata. Contrary to several previous treatments of this topic, this paper argues that it is not anachronistic to think of these figures as “robots”—i.e., as having some kind of inner-workings, even though Homer does not explicitly say what they are.  This discussion helps to situate the Homeric poems within the pre-history of Greek natural philosophy.

Bitumen is a complex and specific in its composition organic materials, the physicomechanical, chemical, adhesive and other properties of which significantly depend on their group composition and the ratio of hydrocarbon fractions included in them. These properties, in turn, are directly related to the composition of the feedstock, which is determined by the level (depth) of processing of oil shoulder straps and the methods of oxidation and compounding of refined products of different levels. This work evaluates the group composition of the initial bituminous raw material and its changes during oxidation under various conditions. The study showed that the oxidation process is dominated by the processes of thermal oxidative destruction, leading to the decomposition of fractions of saturated hydrocarbons into aromatic, resinous and partially aromatic fractions into asphaltenes prone to agglomeration. The results of the study expand knowledge about the development of the potential for regulating the properties of commercial bitumen and polymer-bitumen binders based on them by varying the composition of oil strands supplied for oxidation. The data obtained were used to optimize the production processes of LLC "BITUM", Salavat, for the purpose of large-scale production of commercial bitumen and PMB. The binders produced were used in 2018-2019 for the production of asphalt concrete and polymer-asphalt concrete mixtures and the device of coatings based on them in the Volga Federal District.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ РОЗБУДОВИ ТА ПІДВИЩЕННЯ ЕФЕКТИВНОСТІ СИСТЕМИ ДЕМОКРАТИЧНОГО ЦИВІЛЬНОГО КОНТРОЛЮ НАД СЕКТОРОМ НАЦІОНАЛЬНОЇ БЕЗПЕКИ І ОБОРОНИ В УКРАЇНІ

В статті показані інституційні основи системи демократичного контролю, а саме: спеціально утворені для цієї мети контролюючі та наглядові державні органи: парламент, органи громадянського суспільства, у тому числі й неурядові організації, засоби масової інформації. Особливо важливим є забезпечення демократичного контролю за сектором безпеки, під яким розуміється сукупність структур суспільства, основним призначенням яких є протидія специфічним загрозам національній безпеці, а також спільні для цих структур органи управління. Відсутність демократичного контролю над «силовими» органами веде до втрати їх керованості, що становить значну потенційну загрозу для суспільства, якому ці органи мають служити. Насьогодні, важливим є те, що процес розвитку відповідних демократичних контролюючих органів явно уповільнений і що є незначний поступ у сфері організації демократичного нагляду над органами влади, які приймають рішення, визначають політичний курс. Гальмування процесів демократизації суспільства небезпечно не тільки для країн, що розвиваються, але загрожує країнам з уже розвиненою демократією в питаннях дотримання прав людини. У цій ситуації під загрозою опиняється навіть дотримання фундаментальних громадянських прав і свобод. Однак, особливо небезпечні такі недоліки, коли йдеться про визначення базових понять, на підвалинах яких зводиться будівля демократичного контролю. Адже, як відомо, навіть найкращі закони не гарантують позитивного практичного результату. Враховуючи певні принцип формування і розвитку системи демократичного цивільного контролю над сектором безпеки і оборони, подані шляхи розбудови та підвищення ефективності такої системи в Україні.

Authors: Lemenkova Polina
Published: March 2022

Ghana is a country exceptionally rich in geologic mineral resources with contrasting topographic relief and varied geophysical setting. This paper evaluated the geological and geophysical setting of Ghana with a special focus on the impact of the geologic setting and topography on gravity. Specifically, it assessed how variations in geology, topography, landscapes and the environment control the geophysical parameters and how these vary among the major regions of the country – the Volta Basin, Northern Plains, Ashanti-Kwahu (Kumasi) and Coastal Plains in the Accra surroundings. Previous studies utilizing traditional Geographic Information System (GIS) approaches have documented the geologic evolution of Ghana evolved as a part of the West African Craton. As a contribution to the existing research, this paper presents a regional analysis of Ghana by integrated mapping of geology, geophysics and topography of the country. The technical approach of this research focuses on utilizing the console-based scripting cartographic toolset Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) integrated with QGIS for processing and mapping the datasets: General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO), Earth Gravitational Model 2008 (EGM-2008), gravity grids. The theoretical background is based on the geologic research of West Africa supported by high-resolution data. The paper defines a conceptual cartographic framework for integrated geologic and geophysical visualization in a regional-scale mapping project on Ghana.

Published: March 2022

Nowadays, the increase in consumption and the shortening of the life cycle of products significantly increase the amount of waste generated, causing serious environmental problems. As a result, waste management has become one of the most important tasks of the 21st century, which puts a huge burden on the economy. Waste management means the practical implementation of the protection of the environment from the harmful effects of waste on the entire life cycle of the waste. This is a process that involves the prevention, reduction, separate collection and utilization of waste generated, the temporary storage and disposal of non-recoverable waste without pollution. It follows from the above that logistics functions and services are playing an increasingly important role in waste management. In this paper, we use the example of a smart waste bin to show how smart technologies can be applied in the design of a waste bin.

A variety of fishes consumed regularly are prone to pathogenic spoilage especially by different microbes. It is important to find out microbiological quality of fish that we consume regularly to protect the public health. Current research was conducted to assess the incidence of Salmonella and Escherichia coli (E. coli) contamination in three selected catfish species namely, Ayer (Sperata seenghala), Pabda (Ompok pabda) and Magur (Clarias batrachus) of five rivers (Dhepa, Atrai, Punorvoba, Kakra, and Ghorveshori) of Dinajpur district. The study showed that Salmonella and E. coli positive isolates were 33.33% and 55.55% in Punorvoba river, 31.03% and 50.00% in Atrai river, 30.19% and 56.60% in Dhepa river, 29.63% and 59.26% in Ghorveshori river and 27.08% and 56.25% in Kakra river, respectively. Highest percentage of Salmonella and E. coli were found in Ompok pabda (39.40%) and in Clarias batrachus (63.84%), respectively. Lowest percentage of Salmonella and E. coli were found in Sperata seenghala (26.50% and 41.07%), respectively. The percentage of E. coli was greater than Salmonella for each of the experimental samples that are very alarming for consumption of wild catfish. At the same time, the microbial quality of water of Dhepa, Atrai, Punorvoba, Kakra, and Ghorveshori rivers are not satisfactory regarding fish consumption and public health.
