THEORETICAL GROUNDS FOR ANGULAR CORRECTION OF THE SUPPLY AIR JET FLOW VECTOR IN THE VENTILATION SYSTEMS OF INDUSTRIAL AND AGRICULTURAL FACILITIES
Authors:   Russian State Agrarian University - Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy, IGNATKIN IVAN YU.
Published: October 2021

During the heating period, the supply air temperature is lower than that in industrial premises, and the cooled air is denser. Entering a warm room, it tends to move downward. This condition leads to the formation of chilled and stagnant zones. The article presents a theoretical study on the possibility of ensuring the maximum propagation range of a non-isothermal supply air jet by angular correction of the fl ow vector at the outlet of the ventilation unit. Based on the theory of free air distribution, the author analyzed and graphically visualized the fl ow trajectories of the supply air from the combined climate control unit with heat recovery in the production room in the range of outdoor temperatures from +10 to –40°C. Given the time period of outdoor temperatures, fl at sections of a three-dimensional graph were built with a step of 10°C in the range from +10 to –30°C. The author found that the maximum service area of the installation is limited by the propagation range of the supply air jet. The area can be increased by changing the direction of the fl ow vector by an angle ranging between 0 and 34°. The value of the inclination angle of the fl ow vector of the supply air jet is determined by the obtained approximation dependency. Considering the regulation of the fl ow vector, the author used the formula of M.Z. Pechatnikov to determine the propagation range of a limited axisymmetric jet. The studies carried out made it possible to establish the relationship between the propagation range of the supply air jet of the installation and the outside temperature, the inclination angle of the fl ow vector, and the theoretical variation range of the inclination angle of the fl ow vector, ranging between 0 and 34°.

Unified Convergence Analysis of Two-Step Iterative Methods for Solving Equations
Authors: Argyros Ioannis K.
Published: October 2021

In this paper we consider unified convergence analysis of two-step iterative methods for solving equations in the Banach space setting. The convergence order four was shown using Taylor expansions requiring the existence of the fifth derivative not on this method. But these hypotheses limit the utilization of it to functions which are at least five times differentiable although the method may converge. As far as we know no semi-local convergence has been given in this setting. Our goal is to extend the applicability of this method in both the local and semi-local convergence case and in the more general setting of Banach space valued operators. Moreover, we use our idea of recurrent functions and conditions only on the first derivative and divided differences which appear on the method. This idea can be used to extend other high convergence multipoint and multistep methods. Numerical experiments testing the convergence criteria complement this study.
Implementation of BERT based machine learning model to extract cancer-miRNA relationship from research literature
Authors: Sundharam Arunprasad , Ding Qin
Published: October 2021

In the world of information technology, text mining is a widely popular methodology to extract the desired information out of the given pile of text data. Currently there are thousands of research papers/literatures published in the field of medical science related to the study of how microRNAs (miRNAs) can assist or impede the development of various types of cancer. mirCancer is a repository offered by East Carolina University to access details of cancer-miRNA association from more than 7000 research papers retrieved using rule based text mining technique. It would be a good value if we can create a machine learning model to extract the cancer-miRNA association details from the title and abstract content of these medical research papers. In this research paper, we have proposed a machine learning model which is designed and implemented using the open source NLP framework – BERT, provided by Google, to identify the cancer-miRNA relationship in the given abstract content of the research papers. We have also prepared the dataset required to train and validate the proposed model. The model developed by us performed with an overall accuracy of 90.3% in retrieving the required information from the research literatures of the test dataset and it can be useful for retrieving cancer-miRNA association information from future research literatures.

Published: October 2021

Database tampering is a key security threat that impacts the integrity of sensitive in- formation of crucial businesses. The evolving risks of security threats as well as regulatory compliance are important driving forces for achieving better integrity and detecting pos- sible data tampering by either internal or external malicious perpetrators. We present DBKnot, an architecture for a tamper detection solution that caters to such problem while maintaining seamlessness and ease of retrofitting into existing append-only database ap- plications with near-zero modifications. We also pay attention to data confidentiality by making sure that the data never leaves the organization’s premises. We leverage designs like chains of record hashes to achieve the target solution. A set of preliminary exper- iments have been conducted that resulted in DBKnot adding an overhead equal to the original transaction time. We have run the same experimemts experiments with different parallelization and pipelining versions of DBKnot which resulted in cutting approximately 66% of the added overhead.

Model Checking Mutual Inclusion and Mutual Exclusion Algorithms
Authors: Zhao Kai , Margapuri Venkata Siva Kumar , Neilsen Mitchell
Published: October 2021

The concepts of mutual inclusion and mutual exclusion are critical for concurrency control in distributed systems. Mutual exclusion is a property which ensures that at most one process can execute in its critical section at any given time. For example, other processes are not allowed to enter their critical sections when a given process is updating a shared variable in its critical section. If up to k processes can enter their critical sections, this is called k-exclusion. In contrast, mutual inclusion imposes restrictions on processes from leaving their critical sections. For example, to ensure reliability in a server farm, a certain number of servers may need to be available to service requests. If at least m processes must be available, this is called m-inclusion. Model checking is essential to verify and validate correctness and safety properties of distributed algorithms. The paper presents token-based models that can be used to verify and validate k-mutual exclusion and m-mutual inclusion algorithms where k refers to the maximum number of processes in their critical sections and m is the minimum number that must remain in their critical sections. Verification criteria includes the maximum number of messages that must be exchanged to enter or leave a critical section, deadlock freedom, and timing parameters. In addition, a model that includes both k-exclusion and m-inclusion is presented to demonstrate the feasibility of evaluating both mutual exclusion and mutual inclusion in the same model. Models are developed in UPPAAL, an environment for modeling, validation, and verification of real-time systems represented using timed automata.

Introduction: Despite advances in the management of sickle cell disease (SCD), gaps still exist in the knowledge of healthcare professionals (HCPs) about the disease. The objective of this study was to assess the knowledge of HCPs about SCD. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study involving 465 HCPs (physicians and nurses) who responded to the DFConhecimento instrument questionnaire. Performance was tested in terms of average score and proportion of correct response for each questionnaire item topic. Results: The average score for respondents was 4.6 ± 1.9 out of a total of 13 points. Proportions of professionals who responded well were greater than 58% in three topics (Neonatal screening program, Sickle cell conditions, and Sickle cell anemia genotype). In the other topics, rates of good response ranged from 11.6% to 46.0%. There was a statistical association between best performance and medical title: physicians were more knowledgeable than nurses (OR = 6.26; 95% CI: 2.69-14.56). Conclusion: This study highlighted that knowledge of SCD among HCPs is very inadequate. This lack of sufficient information on SCD from HCPs indicates the need to develop continuing education programs.

Published: October 2021

Atotal of 720 Isa broiler one- day old chicks were used in this study. They were fed a commercial diet for the first two week of the study which last for 8 weeks. Thereafter chick were divided into 4 equal groups (a,b,c.and d). Each group contained 180 chicks in triplicates. Afloor pens were used in raring the chicks for the entire period of eight weeks. The diets a,b,and c contained a poultry by-product meal at a rate of 10% for the entire period as a source of animal protein. This local crud protein was bought as a meal from three processing plant named Abu-Ghraib, Dorrha, and Sammarha (a,b,c), respectivelly. Whereas in diet (d) a foreign protein concentrate was used as a soure of protein and left as a control. Results indicated that the final body weight of bird in group (a) and (b) was 1863 and 1606 gm respectivelly. These averages were higher (p<0.05) than that (1300gm.) reported from birds in group (d) that received the concentrate. On the other hand statistical analysis did not show any significanc difference in feed efficiency among these groups. Furthermore data from this study indicated that group (c) which received the poultry by- product from Samarrah processing plant gave the lowest (p<0.05) body weight (1056 gm.) as compaired to other groups of the experiment. Feed efficiency of birds in this group was also the lowest (3.55) among all other groups. It is concluded that poultry by- product meal can be used as a replacement to protein concentrate in broiler diets.

The purpose of this work is to study the water-absorbing properties of the bean seed tissues of the wild Ceratonia siliqua population growing in Syria and cultivated on the Crete island (Greece) absorb water in a crushed state at room temperature. Сeratonia siliqua seeds endosperm accumulating polysaccharides from the group of galactomannans which is a material for the production of locust bean gum (food additive E410). It is used in the food industry as a thickener, stabilizer, in the manufacture of dairy products, ice cream, processed cheeses, sweets and soups, in the pharmaceutical industry for film emulsions, paints, varnishes, ceramics and glue production. In the available literature there are no data on the swelling ration (SR) of the seeds of Ceratonia siliqua. The researcher’s task is to establish the value of SR and study the swelling dynamics (SD) of crushed native seeds and parts (endosperm, embryos) isolated from seeds after their modification. SR was determined by the method of medicinal plant types analises containing mucus (mucilago). It was found that water absorption by crushed seeds and their parts, regardless of the Ceratonia growth place develops quite sharply and quickly. SR of crushed native seeds was 6.3-7.0. At the same time, the swelling of the Ceratonia seeds from Syria was more intense than that from Crete island. The SR level of the crushed parts isolated from modified seeds of different origins was the same: endosperm – 5.0, embryos – 3.5. The SR value of the crushed seeds in comparison with the SR of their individual parts turned out to be higher. The process of the endosperm swelling containing galactomannan polysaccharide was more vigorous than in the embryos.

Published: October 2021

This article investigates the effect of exogenous phytohormones ABA and IAA on the content of reducing sugars and endogenous phytohormones in cotton seedlings of varieties Porlok-4, obtained on the basis of gene knockout technology and a marker of associated breeding - Ravnak-1. Exogenous phytohormones (ABA and IAA) can significantly change the level of cotton resistance to unfavorable environmental factors. Under the action of exogenous ABA causes an increase of cotton resistance to salinity. Biotechnological cotton variety Ravnak-1 showed sensitivity to prolonged exposure to salinity in combination with phytohormones, increasing the content of reducing sugars and endogenous phytohormones, depending on the duration of salt stress. In the Porlok-4 variety, under the influence of salinity, the content of reducing sugars and endogenous phytohormones had an insignificant increase, due to the inherent adaptive capacity of the variety. The conducted studies allow us to conclude that phytohormones are actively involved in the formation of cotton resistance to the action of unfavorable environmental factors of an abiotic nature.

Background: Flies (Musca domestica) can act as vectors of typhus, dysentery, and cholera. Various methods have been used to control flies from around human life, either mechanically (light traps), a chemical in the form of toxic baits or insecticides, or with scents that are repellent. A mixture of curry leaf extract with soursop leaves can be used as an insecticide to repel house flies. Because curry leaves and soursop leaves contain compounds, tannins, saponins, and flavonoids that flies do not like.Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a mixture of curry leaves with soursop leaves as a natural insecticide in repelling the flies (Musca Domestica).Methods: This research is an experimental design with a mixture of curry leaf extract with soursop leaves on the power of repelling house flies. This research was conducted in 2019 in Darul Kamal District, Aceh Besar. The object of the research was 450 house flies, which consisted of five treatments with three repetitions. Data analysis was carried out with the one-way ANOVA statistical test.Results: The descriptive results showed that at a dose of 10gr/100ml the average flies were able to repel 37 flies, at a dose of 20 gr/100ml were 44, at a dose of 30 gr/100ml were 59 and at a dose of 40 gr/100ml was 70. Of the four treatments, the most effective dose was at a dose of 40gr/100ml, which was 70 (77.7%). Statistically, it showed that there was a significant difference (p < 0.05) between various doses/treatments of mixed extracts of curry leaves (Murraya koeginii) and soursop leaves (Annona muricata Linn) on the repelling power of house flies (Musca domestica), with p-value = 0.000.Conclusion: A mixture of curry leaf extract (Murraya koeginii) with soursop leaf (Annona muricata Linn) is effective as an insecticide in repelling house flies (Musca domestica).

Koval (State Enterprise "Ukrainian State Research Coal Chemical Institute (UHIN)", 61023, Kharkov, Vesnina st., 7, Ukraine) The article highlights the methodological foundations and the results of research on the development of criteria and practical recommendations aimed at optimizing the composition of coal charges of coke oven batteries No. 5, 6 of the coke-chemical production of РJSC "ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih" to obtain coke of the required quality from the rammed charge. The defining indicator of the production of coke using the technology of compaction of coal charges is the strength of the compacted cake. The most successful way to determine this indicator is to assess the strength by an indirect method according to the value of the shear strength (ϭss) of rammed batch samples in laboratory conditions. This method allows to identify changes in the strength of the coal cake and take the necessary measures to prevent or minimize the number of collapses during loading. The article gives images of installations for laboratory compaction of coal charge and determination of the shear strength of the resulting cake; the methodology for determining this indicator is given. As a result of the above studies, it has been established that the density of the tamped cake from crushed individual coals included in the raw material base of the by-product coke production of РJSC "ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih" is closely related to the content in coal raw materials of classes <3 and <0.5 mm. An increase in the content of classes <3 and <0.5 mm leads to an increase in the index ϭss. It is also shown that the actual values of ϭss for binary coal mixtures are higher than the calculated ones. It has been established that with an increase in the level of grinding of coal charges from 90,1 to 92,2 %, an increase in the value of the index ϭss is observed from 12.5 to 15.0 кРа, that is, by 20 %. With an increase in the moisture content of the charge from 10,0 to 11,5 %, the strength of the compacted cake increases. An increase in the moisture content above 12 % is undesirable due to a decrease in the strength of the rammed coal cake, as well as an increase in heat consumption for coking due to the consumption of moisture evaporation. Keywords: coal, preparation, shear strength of the rammed cake, moisture content, particle size distribution. Corresponding author N.V. Mukina, е-mail: Natalia.Mukina@arcelormittal.com
Immigrants in Slovenia and Their Language: Goran Voinovich's Novel “Southern Scum Go Home!”
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Krasovec Aleksandra
Published: October 2021

A novel “Southern Scum Go Home!”(Ljubljana 2008) by G. Vojnović addresses the lives of the two generations of immigrants from the southern republics of the former Yugoslavia in Slovenia; they received the pejorative designation “čefur” (scum) in the Slovenian language. The essay points out specific linguistic phenomena that emerge when several related cultures and languages come into contact. These phenomena include: marginal sociolect of the first generation of immigrants which is a form of interlanguage, and the excessive sociolect of the second bilingual generation, an example of the mixed language, as well as a significant factor in the devopment of the urban youth subculture of “čefurs.” We examine these phenomena and the inherent processes of lexical, morphological and syntactic hybridization of the Slovenian and Serbo-Croatian language codes. The immigrant border-zone world between the two different realms creates a complex and contradictory form of transcultural self-identification, language being one of the active tools.
Realms of the Youthful Biography of Yu. M. Lotman
Authors:   Tallinn University, Kuzovkina Tatiana
Published: October 2021

The essay focuses on the dynamic interaction of different spatial topoi in the biography of Yu. M. Lotman. The study bears on Lotman’s letters tohis family between 1940 and 1946 –a time when Lotman was in the army. His interests in the field of science and various national cultures, his cognitive activity were generated by hishighly intellectual family. While serving in the army, Lotman was engaged in self-education and actively absorbed impressions of the foreign culture. The worldview of the young person during the war became the subject of reflection in the works of his later years. Lotman’s letters contain examples of the centrist geographical cultural model he described in 1992: the USSR is the center of the world revolution, while Petersburg and the Hermitage are the center of the “cultural ecumene.”At the same time, the letters reflect an alternative eccentric cultural model. Lotman noted peculiarities of the foreign daily life and interethnic relations and described in detail the impressions of exhibitions and performances in Berlin. Interaction of real and mythological geography determined the evolution of Lotman’s personality and shaped his intellectual and scholarly fields of interest.
On the Borders of Text and Cult

The essay focuses upon interrelated phenomena of literary cult and cultic text. Bearing on the conceptual ideas of Sergey Zenkin and Péter Dávidházi, we problematize the boundaries between text and cults on the example of two case studies. One has to do with one of the recent interpretations of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, a nineteenth-century bestseller novel that had a great impact on literary and political life of the United States in the antebellum period. David S. Reynolds argues that Ulyanov-Lenin’s escape from the Finnish mainland by breaking their way on the broken ice of the river to an island might have been inspired by his reading of Uncle Tom’s Cabin where a fugitive slave Eliza does exactly the same thing. This essay invites to see this random encounter of the East and the West, the fictional and the “real” not as a curious anecdote or coincidence but as a mechanism of inventing cultic texts. What happens when one of the prominent figures of the European historical narrative, the crown prince assassinated in 1914, reads the works of the Russian poet before the fatal day in Sarajevo? Milorad Pavić is building his short story„“Prince Ferdinand Reads Pushkin” upon recognizable allusions to Pushkin texts, the similarities and differences, the fatal and the accidental in the stories of the poet shot in the duel and the Austrian crown prince being a victim of an assassination – two intersective storylines that may be described as “isomorphic plots.” Pavić’s short story is a unique voice in the so-called twentieth century “Pushkiniana,” speaking both within and beyond the Pushkin myth and cult.
The Boarder Text in Andrey Bitov’s works
Authors:   Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Meyer-Fraatz Andrea
Published: October 2021

At first glance, the border text in Andrey Bitov’s works is connected with the topic of traveling. Not only does the travelogue genre play an important role in his works, his stories reveal an underlying structure of traveling: protagonists cross borders both literally and metaphorically. Yet the notion of the border is important beyond the thematic layer. In his essay “The borders of the genre,” the author problematizes the notion of the genre. His masterpiece, a novel The Pushkin House is full of border crossings, for example, generic, social, ethical, and epistemological. In his last phase, Bitov more and more thematises the (im)possibility of crossing state borders, which was a crucial question for Bitov during the Soviet “Empire”, as he was allowed to travel abroad only in the late 1980s. This lead to the invention of an autobiographical myth about “the one who is not allowed to go abroad”, concerning not only himself but also Pushkin. The manifold aspects of the border in Bitov’s works thus establish a certain poetics of the border.
Metamorphoses of the Ukrainian Song “Їkhav Kozak beyond the Danube”:Was the German Translation by Wilhelm Kuchelbecker Familiar to the Hungarian Count Poet Ferenc Teleki?
Authors:   Research Centre for the Humanities, Institute for Literary Studies, MTA Centre for Excellence, Kalavszky Zsófia
Published: October 2021

In my essay I trace how – by which means and through what channels – the Ukrainian song «Ĭхав козак за Дунай» (Kozak was riding beyond the Danube) reached Europe at the beginning of the nineteenth-century and then by the means of German mediation, sprang out onto Hungarian territories. In the German language area, it spread essentially as a folk song. Translated (or rather transcribed) into German by Christopher Tidge, the Ukrainian song reached the Kingdom of Hungary most likely together with the troops that took part in the Napoleon wars. At the same time, another version of the song circulated among the Hungarian elite in German culture. The latter was known as Russisches Lied in the translation of Theodor Körner – it was also in vogue and was distributed mainly in print media. The history of this song that in the first decade of the nineteenth century, gained fame in Czech, Polish, and English, has another line that may be interesting from the point of view of Russian and Hungarian literary connections. In 1814, Russian poet Wilhelm Küchelbecker translated the song into German. His translation which remained in the form of the manuscript and was not known to the reading public reveals an amazing similarity and in some places direct coincidences with the poem by the Hungarian poet Count Ferenc Teleki written presumably before 1820.
The I as the Eye: on Poetics of Ruins in I. Brodsky’s essay Homage to Marcus Aurelius
Authors:   University of Zagreb, Lugarić Vukas Daniela
Published: October 2021

The main aim of this chapter is to offer a possible interpretation of the meanings attached to the ruins as both the image and the metaphor in Brodsky’s essays, or, to be more precise, in “Homage to Marcus Aurelius” (1994), an essay that sets its narrative world in the ruined world that surrounds the narrator, elicits an ambivalent sense of time, and provokes complex thoughts of history as an eternal cycle and dialectic process. Departing from the premises that ruins emancipate us from social constraints, free senses, and desires, enable introspection, and foster creativity, I expand the well-established thesis according to which Brodsky’s writings are structured on an image of time as irretrievability and irreclaimability, which, in his writings, reverberates and re-creates an experience of continuous failures to discipline the memory, thus making any return impossible. Moreover, my aim is to show that the approach to Brodsky’s essays from the perspective of an analysis of ruins can offer us much more: for example, it can offer valuable insights into his understanding of the agency of the authorial modernist voice in literature. Where, in a work of art, is the writer’s voice located? What does it mean to see and to write, and what does it mean to read? What role, in this process, is assigned to tradition, “eternal values,” and cultural heritage?
Hungary – The East or the West? The Image of Hungary in Contemporary Polish Literature and Popular Tourist Guides
Authors:   Siedlce University of Natural Sciences and Humanities, Bobryk Roman
Published: October 2021

The image of Hungary in Poland has remained positive for centuries. There is even a famous proverb: “The Pole, the Hungarian are twobrothers...”. However, this image has been changing in the last decade depending on political conditions, on the point of view of the narrator, and, occasionally, on her political views. In the 1970s and 1980s, Hungary seemed a Western country to the Poles who visited it. In modern Polish literature, the Hungarian topic is present primarily in essays. A special place in this respect is taken by the series of three books by the writer of Polish-Hungarian origin, Krzysztof Varga, who talks about Hungarian history and modernity. In the documentary essays of Andrzej Stasiuk, Hungary is usually represented as a transit country. The writer expresses, among other things, the opinion that “to the East and South of Prague and Budapest begins something like terra incognita.” Ziemowit Szczerek describes Hungary differently. He emphasises that due to the affiliation to Habsburg Empire, it belonged to the Western civilization for a long time, but years of communism made it different from modern Western standards in many aspects.
