New records of protected, threatened, and rare vascular plant species in the Lower Bug Valley (eastern Poland)
Authors: Szulc Adam Piotr , Wiśniewski Marcin
Published: August 2024

We present new localities and verified published records of protected, rare, and threatened vascular plant species in the Mazovia region, mostly in the left-bank part of the Lower Bug Valley (Dolina Dolnego Bugu). Some localities are in the Wołomin Plain (Równina Wołomińska) and the Siedlce Plateau (Wysoczyzna Siedlecka). The analysed species occur in various natural and semi-natural habitats, such as xerothermic and sandy grasslands, floodplain meadows, wetlands, bogs, and forests. Data were collected during field research carried out in 2021-2023. In the left-bank part of the Lower Bug Valley, 45 species of protected plants were recorded, but also red-listed or regionally rare plants (90 species in total). They include 16 species are under strict protection, 29 under partial protection, and 35 species are rare in the region. Some of the localities described earlier by other authors were found again or verified. In the Lower Bug Valley, there are almost all plant associations known from Mazovia, including the extremely valuable boreal Sphagno girgensohnii-Piceetum, protected in the “Jegiel” reserve. There are also oak forests on the edge of the Siedlce Plateau. The valleys of the Bug and its tributaries are dominated by areas of cultivation, arable fields, meadows, and forests. Some species considered to be common in other regions are rare in the Bug river valley, e.g. Hepatica nobilis, Asarum europaeum, Isopyrum thalictroides. This is because their habitats are sparse or degraded. However, some other species, rare in other regions, are common in the study area, e.g. Allium angulosum, Euphorbia lucida, and Hierochloë odorata on floodplain meadows, Salvinia natans in oxbow lakes, and Arctostaphylos uva-ursi in pine forests and sandy grasslands. The only locality of Blechnum spicant in this part of Mazovia was found in this study. The species is characteristic of montane forests and fir-spruce forests. Two localities of Diphasiastrum tristachyum were recorded, in typical habitats of this species: heaths formed after forest fires.
State and contours of research on roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) in Africa
Authors: El Bilali Hamid
Published: August 2024

Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) – also called sorrel, Bissap or Karkadeh – is believed to be native to Africa. Research is needed to set a solid foundation for the development of roselle in the continent. Therefore, this article presents an analysis of the research landscape on roselle in Africa; it covers bibliographical metrics, the geography of the research, and the topics addressed in the scholarly literature about roselle. The systematic review drew upon 119 eligible articles identified through a search carried out on the Web of Science in March 2024. The research field is not well-established; the number of publications on roselle in Africa is limited, indicating an unstable and inconsistent interest. The research field is multidisciplinary but appears to focus more on biological sciences than social sciences and economics. The research geography is not balanced, with more than half of all studies on roselle in Africa conducted in just five countries, viz. Nigeria, Egypt, Sudan, Ghana, and Senegal. The content analysis suggests that roselle holds the potential to contribute to food and nutrition security and the well-being of the populations. It can not only contribute to agricultural development but also to addressing many challenges the continent faces. Research is needed to unlock its potential. Future research should pay more attention, inter alia, to the relationships between roselle and environmental issues (e.g. climate change), social and economic aspects (e.g. livelihoods), and agronomy (cf. fertilization, pest management, irrigation). Given that roselle is grown across Africa, collaboration among African countries should also be encouraged.
Examining the Validity of the Levels of Personality Functioning Questionnaire for Adolescents Aged 12-18 (LOPF-Q 12-18): A Replication and Extension With a Sample of Lithuanian Adolescents

Published: August 2024

With the shift to the dimensional model of personality pathology, the need for measures assessing personality functioning in adolescence has emerged. The Levels of Personality Functioning Questionnaire 12-18 (LoPF-Q 12-18) was developed specifically for adolescents, tailoring the Alternative Model of Personality Disorders in the DSM-5. Using the Lithuanian LoPF-Q 1218, we further investigate its validity by reexamining its factorial structure and extending convergent, discriminant, and incremental validity analyses. A total of 1,048 community-based and clinically referred 12-18-year-old adolescents completed the LoPF-Q 12-18 along with other self-report measures of personality pathology, psychopathological symptoms, and psychosocial functioning. In line with previous findings, the results supported the bifactor model consisting of a strong general factor and little multidimensionality caused by the group factors, overall suggesting an essentially unidimensional structure. Further analyses provided additional information on the construct validity of the LoPF-Q 12-18.

SUSPENSION OF START III IN CONTEXT OF THE DETERRENCE THEORY
Authors: Grafov Dmitry ,   Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: August 2024

The article examines the prospects for changing the security balance after Russia’s suspension of the START Treaty. The author analyzes the possibilities of creating asymmetric advantages for Russia from the positions of offensive and defensive realism, the theory of deterrence and the bargaining model of war in order to change the hostile position of the United States. Obviously, strategic stability cannot be maintained without taking into account the confrontation between Russia and the United States over Ukraine and the desire to defeat Russia at the hands of Ukraine. Following the theory of deterrence, Russia can create a number of asymmetric advantages (defensive and offensive) that can pose a threat to US interests and change the architecture of strategic stability. Asymmetric advantages are seen as preparation for actions sensitive to the US security – as information, warning signal, that exerts pressure. The hypothesis is put forward about the effect of an asymmetric advantage on a change the policy of the opposite side, if the perception of the future benefits of continuing the policy is less than the perception of future losses. The opposite side can change its policy if the threat of the deterrent side leaves no doubt. The threat can achieve its goal if all parties (NATO members, third parties) draw conclusions from its reality. The reaction of third parties is of great importance for Russia and the United States. Asymmetric measures, that create a threat, are a sequence of actions, not verbal threats that are not supported by information about actual preparations. It is important for Russia to convince the United States that all asymmetric measures are only counterbalance of American policy
DEEPENING CRISIS IN GERMANY’S RELATIONS WITH RUSSIA IN 2023–2024
Authors: Belov Vladislav ,   Institute of Europe, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: August 2024

In 2023, Germany, in the context of the ongoing conflict around Ukraine, continued to follow the postulate formulated by Chancellor O. Scholz about a «change of eras» in relations with Russia. If in 2022 some stabilization was achieved in a number of areas, the next year was marked by a number of targeted steps by official Berlin, which led to a deepening of the crisis in bilateral relations. At the initiative of the German side, the expulsion of Russian diplomats was organized, followed by a mutual reduction in the number of consulates. The Russian Embassy in Berlin and its employees were subjected to unprecedented pressure from the German Foreign Ministry. The media continued to put pressure on German companies, which continued to do business with Russian partners in the face of ever-increasing sanctions restrictions. Negative trends continued in JanuaryFebruary 2024. They were based on Berlin’s comprehensive support for the Kyiv regime. The author analyzes the anti-Russian vector of German foreign policy and gives a forecast for the development of German-Russian relations in the coming years.
THE ARCTIC IN 2023: INTERNATIONAL AND RUSSIAN ASPECTS
Authors: Zhuravel Valery ,   Institute of Europe, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: August 2024

The Arctic in 2023 was under the close attention of the Russian leadership. The article analyses the international problems of the Arctic, the end of the Russian Federation’s chairmanship of the Arctic Council and its transfer to Norway, as well as events in the Arctic that influenced the policies of Russia and European countries in the Arctic. The article analyses the international problems of the North, the end of the Russian Federation’s Chairmanship of the Arctic Council and the official transfer of the AC Chair’s authority to Norway for the years 2023–2025, as well as events in the Arctic that influenced the policies of Russia and European countries in the Arctic. It is emphasised that foreign states continue to increase their military presence in the Western Arctic. The situation was complicated by Finland’s accession to NATO and the upcoming admission of Sweden, which contributed to strengthening the Arctic capabilities of the alliance and created real military threats to Russia. The confrontational position of the West, which reacts sharply to the formation of a more equitable multipolar world order, has had an extremely negative impact on northern international cooperation, which previously traditionally remained outside the political environment. The author analyses the complex problems of the Russian Arctic development related to the functioning and further development of the Northern Sea Route and close territories based on the activities of the President of the Russian Federation, the Government of Russia, ministries and departments, representatives of business and public organisations during this period. The article focuses on the issues of solving the problems of the indigenous peoples of the North, northern imports, Arctic science, import substitution of technologies and equipment for exploration, production and transportation of minerals in the Arctic, and the definition of «core Arctic cities». It is noted that the real influence of foreign countries on the Arctic region can only be determined by the results of a special military operation.
ITALY’S AFRICAN FOREIGN POLICY: BETWEEN POPULISM AND PRAGMATISM
Authors: Glubokaya Olga ,   Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation
Published: August 2024

The article considers the peculiarities of Italian-African relations at the present stage and analyses the results of the January Italy-Africa summit. The study presents the main factors that influenced Italy’s interest in moving Italian-African relations to a new level of cooperation, such as the deficit of energy resources, the problem of illegal migration and the desire to take a central place in regional processes. The author examines some of the postulates of Italian foreign policy, including the priority of becoming the centre of African energy with its further distribution to European countries. Since this goal is to be achieved through the implementation of the Mattei Plan, a set of initiatives for the development of Africa, the author pays considerable attention to the conceptual agenda. The summit showed the unilateral focus and modest financial base of the emerging Italian strategy.

Published: August 2024

Cancer is a significant disease that poses a major threat to human health. Image-guided cancer therapy refers to a series of medical procedures that use imaging technology to precisely locate and treat cancer. Combining the dual characteristics of medical images and functional nanomaterial (NM) drug carriers, various integrated diagnosis and treatment probes have been developed for in vivo dynamic monitoring and therapeutic effect evaluation of drugs based on medical imaging. Copper (Cu)-based NMs have emerged as valuable products of nanotechnology due to their unique physicochemical properties, which are influenced by factors, such as size, shape, and surface properties. In the field of imaging, Cu-based NMs offer a combination of desirable characteristics, including fluorescence emission, contrast enhancement, and radiolabeling stability. These properties form the foundation for a wide range of imaging modalities. In addition, Cu-based NMs can be used as a carrier for diagnostic or therapeutic drugs and the synergistic effect of multiple therapeutic modalities can be realized by doping multiple transition metals into the heterostructures. These properties have become an important basis for imaging-guided therapy with Cu-based NMs. In this review we introduce biocompatible Cu-based NMs for image-guided cancer therapy and provide an overview of the promising outcomes in biomedical research.

Published: August 2024

Pre-clinical data suggest that mutations in the MEN1, DAXX, and/or ATRX genes may potentially increase radiation efficacy in cancer cells. Herein, we explore the association between response to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) and those mutations in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). We analyzed tissue-based next generation sequencing (NGS) assay results and clinicopathologic data from 28 patients with GEP-NETs treated with PRRT. Findings were correlated with progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR). Patients with mutations in MEN1, DAXX, and/or ATRX (n = 13) had a longer median PFS (26.47 vs 12.13 months; P = 0.014) than wild-type (n = 15) patients when adjusted for surgery prior to PRRT, tumor grade, and presence of TP53 mutation. Alterations in MEN1 along with a concurrent mutation in either DAXX or ATRX (n = 6) trended toward longer PFS compared to patients without concurrent mutations (31.53 vs 17.97 months; P = 0.09). ORR was higher in patients with a mutation in MEN1, DAXX, or ATRX (41.67% vs 15.38%). In pancreatic NET patients, these target mutations also showed a longer PFS (28.43 vs 9.83 months; P = 0.04). TP53 alterations showed a shorter PFS than wild-type cases (11.17 vs 20.47 months; P = 0.009). Mutations in MEN1/DAXX/ATRX are associated with improved PFS in patients with GEP-NETs receiving PRRT and might be used as a biomarker for treatment response.

Published: August 2024

The effects of air heat treatment were evaluated on six Korean oak woods: Quercus serrata (Qs), Quercus mongolica (Qm), Quercus acutissima (Qac), Quercus aliena (Qal), Quercus dentata (Qd), and Quercus variabilis (Qv). Color change (ΔE*), weight loss, and density loss were examined using flat-sawn heartwood boards before and after treatment at 160 °C, 180 °C, 200 °C, and 220 °C for 2 h. Overall, the ΔE*, weight loss, and density loss increased with temperature. The properties between temperature and species showed distinct differences. A change to a darker color was observed in all species after treatment at 200 °C. Qm and Qd exhibited the highest and lowest L*, a*, and b* values after treatment at 220 °C, respectively. The highest ΔE* values were obtained in Qd at 160 °C, Qs at 180 °C and 200 °C, and Qv at 220 °C. Qd and Qv exhibited the highest and lowest weight losses at 160 °C, respectively. Qac and Qal showed the highest and lowest weight losses at 220 °C, respectively. Qm showed the highest density loss at all temperatures, whereas Qs had the lowest at 160 °C, and Qac had the lowest values at 180 °C, 200 °C, and 220 °C.
Characterization of an eco-friendly gypsum composite board using agricultural fibers (rice straw)
Authors: Tichi Ali Hassanpoor , Khatiri Amin
Published: August 2024

In this research, a novel mineral-based composite board was developed using gypsum as a mineral binder and rice straw as a readily available agro-based resource. The study involved two key phases: Phase 1: The preliminary assessment of rice straw-gypsum composite involved integrating different ratios of rice straw into gypsum to examine the influence of rice straw integration on the composite board’s performance. The specific proportions used were 90:10%, 80:20%, and 70:30% for rice straw to gypsum. Phase 2: Reinforcement with bacterial nanocellulose fibers. In the subsequent phase, gypsum board composites containing 10%, 20%, and 30% rice straw were further enhanced by the addition of bacterial nanocellulose fibers at 1% and 3% levels. The results indicated a significant influence of rice straw incorporation on the physical and mechanical properties of the panels. The composite boards with 3% bacterial nanocellulose fiber gel exhibited the highest mechanical performance, with values of 13.5 MPa for modulus of rupture, 4650 MPa for modulus of elasticity, and 0.79 MPa for Internal Bond. The study revealed that the adverse effects of rice straw substitution on the mechanical properties and thickness swelling of the panels could be mitigated to a certain extent by incorporating nanocellulose fibers.
Food packaging performance and environmental impact of polysaccharide-coated papers
Authors: Roman Mirela , Nechita Petronela , Vasile Aida Mihaela , Guiman Maria Violeta
Published: August 2024

The food packaging characteristics and environmental impact of paper coated with polysaccharide dispersions were analyzed. Colloidal dispersions of xylan and xylan derivatives, as well as their combinations with chitosan and nanocrystalline cellulose, were applied in thin layers on both sides of the paper surface (5 g/m²). The barrier properties to water, water vapor, gases, oil/grease, and the antimicrobial properties of the coated paper were evaluated. Generally, polysaccharide coatings improved the barrier and antimicrobial features of coated papers compared to uncoated paper. Significant improvements were obtained by combining xylan derivatives and chitosan, where the contact angle of the coated paper reached 92.8° and achieved 100% inhibition of Bacillus sp. Furthermore, food simulant tests indicated that all tested polysaccharide combinations are suitable for use in food packaging, especially for fatty products. After 28 and 42 days of soil degradation, all samples of xylan and xylan/xylan derivatives/chitosan/nanocellulose coatings reached similar degradation levels (70 to 80% and 14 to 16 mg CO2 production).
“The holy fool” V. V. Rozanov and the mediaeval holy fool: religious connotations of literary style and behaviour
Authors: Rumyantsev Dmitry
Published: August 2024

The article concerns the image of V.V. Rozanov as a " holy fool" in the critical and memoir literature of his contemporaries – V.P. Burenin, S.N. Trubetskoy, A.S. Glinka-Volzhsky, A.A. Izmailov, E.F. Gollerbach. An attempt has been made to determine the meaning of such a naming, the connection of the concept of a "holy fool" in the XIX–XX centuries with the image of the "blessed obscenity". The main functions of the classical medieval holy full are defined based on the scientific literature. Among such functions: nudity, illness, contradiction, word and gesture, spectacle, provocation, self-abasement, aggression, wandering, androgyny, holy fool and king, strange death. Some of these functions are analyzed in the article. Fragments of critical essays and memoirs of contemporaries about Rozanov, in which he was called a "holy fool", are examined for reflections of these foolishness functions. For example, the literary polemic initiated by V.P. Burenin in connection with V.V. Rozanov's article "About one alarm of Mr. L.N. Tolstoy" is analyzed in the context of the relations between the holy fool and the tsar. The definition of Rozanov's literary style, given in the article by A.S. Glinka-Volzhsky, is considered as a reflection of several holy fool functions at once. In addition, the everyday habits of the philosopher are indicated, which caused associations among his contemporaries with the "holy fool" and gave reason to call V.V. Rozanov so. Critics and memoirists of the Silver Age saw the reflection of the features of the medieval holy fool in the everyday behavior and literary style of V. V. Rozanov, and have been created, largely by Rozanov's suggestion, his image of a "holy fool" in the culture of his time. The presence of this image in the secular context of modernist art confirms both the special significance of the Christian feat of foolishness in the Russian Middle Ages, and the rootedness of the image of the "holy fool" in the national cultural memory. While remaining a sign of style or the basis of the author's position, "foolishness", nevertheless, inevitably refers to a certain type of religious life, religious experience, the possibility of which has not been disappeared in the secularized and aestheticized modern context.
PUBLIC-PRIVATE SECTOR SYNERGY FOR PROMOTING DEVELOPMENT IN SOCIAL ENDEAVORS
Authors: TEYMUROV Murad
Published: August 2024

The article provides an overview of the evolution of public administration paradigms, focusing on the transition from Classical Public Administration to New Public Management (NPM) and the emergence of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP). It discusses how NPM, which originated in the 1980s, sought to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of public services by incorporating principles from the private sector. Key features of NPM include decentralization, increased accountability, and a strong emphasis on results and performance metrics.
Furthermore, the concept of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) arose as a response to the limitations of privatization policies. PPPs involve collaboration between the public and private sectors to deliver services or implement projects, sharing both risks and responsibilities. The article traces the historical development of PPPs and highlights their widespread adoption in various sectors globally, such as infrastructure, healthcare, and education.
By leveraging the strengths of both sectors, PPPs aim to improve service delivery and project implementation, offering a more flexible and innovative approach to public administration. The article underscores the significance of these paradigms in shaping contemporary public administration, illustrating how NPM and PPPs have redefined roles, responsibilities, and methodologies within the field. Overall, it highlights the shift towards more dynamic, flexible, and results-oriented approaches in public sector management, reflecting broader trends in governance and public policy.
РОЛЬ ЦИФРОВІЗАЦІЇ КРЕАТИВНИХ ІНДУСТРІЙ У ВОЄННИЙ ЧАС І В ПЕРІОД ПОВОЄННОГО ВІДНОВЛЕННЯ УКРАЇНИ

Published: August 2024

Досліджено релевантність оцінки глибини цифровізації галузей креативних індустрій (КІ) України для розробки заходів з принципового збільшення гнучкої зайнятості й доходів бізнесу і населення в КІ, які можуть частково замістити втрати матеріальних, людських і виробничих ресурсів під час війни і в період повоєнної відбудови країни.
Встановлено, що мають місце методологічні відмінності між дефініціями КІ світових інституцій (ЮНКТАД), країнових переліків і законодавчо визначеним у 2019 р. в Україні переліком галузей КІ, що потребує актуалізації, оскільки не враховує глибини формування інформаційного суспільства й стрімкого переходу соціально-економічної системи від постіндустріальної до неоіндустріальної фази розвитку, поштовх якому надали пандемія COVID-19 і повномасштабна війна в Україні.
Розвитку цифровізації КІ бракує засобів статистичного моніторингу, оскільки переважну більшість галузей КІ не включено до статистичних обстежень Державної служби статистики України; не моніториться впровадження таких ІКТ-інновацій, як штучний інтелект, що масово запроваджуються в КІ (нейромережі, Chat-GPT тощо), блокчейн (NFT), що суперечить підходам ЄС щодо моніторингу цифровізації соціально-економічних систем як для країни – кандидата на членство в ЄС. Здебільшого для дослідження цифровізації КІ доступний лише івент-метод аналізу. Через проблеми статистики важко оцінити місце КІ в зовнішньоекономічній діяльності. Не налагоджено екосистему комплаєнсу нерегулярного підприємництва в КІ при розміщенні інтелектуального продукту і послуг у так званих нових медіа на зарубіжних відеохостингових платформах і в Інтернеті щодо податків, авторського права та інтелектуальної власності. Спроби запровадити адекватні інструменти контролю за сплатою податків з доходів фрілансерів виявилися малоефективними. Законопроєкт щодо реєстрації і оподаткування нерегулярних видів діяльності, у тому числі в КІ, досі не прийнято. 
Запропоновано механізми сприяння розвитку масових КІ від бізнесу, держави, органів місцевого самоврядування, інститутів громадянського суспільства тощо.
Los márgenes del estado en los márgenes de la urbe. Reconstrucción identitaria de las nuevas generaciones en contexto del borde urbano-rural
Authors: Marentes-Hortua Juan-Camilo
Published: August 2024

El artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los márgenes del estado, a partir de un acercamiento etnográfico a un programa educativo dirigido a la primera infancia en una localidad de borde urbano-rural de Bogotá. Para su análisis se toman conceptos desde la antropología del estado, como “gubernamentalidad” y “márgenes del estado”, así como aproximaciones críticas al “Desarrollo”. A partir de la reconstrucción de imaginarios y prácticas escolares, se deja explícita la manera en la que formas concretas de estado se desdibujan en sus bordes. Sin embargo, se concluye que, a través de este tipo de programas educativos, se moldean nuevas identidades acordes con nuevas agendas de desarrollo, de cohorte urbanocentrista, ya que implican la deformación de la identidad campesina.
Transferencias monetarias condicionadas en la Comuna 1 de Medellín y la percepción de sus habitantes sobre la reducción de la pobreza
Authors: Barrios-Guerrero Ana-María

This paper presents an analysis of the Interacting Boson Model (IBM-1) and IBM-2, which are considered representative models for the translation limit of SU(3)-O(6). An appropriate method for fitting is expected to develop the optimum parameters for the calculated energy level of 186Hg nucleus. The intended energy states for the various bands, for example, ground, γ, and β bands of mutually exclusive models, are associated with the prevailing measured data. The strengths of quadruple electromagnetic transitions in this nucleus, established by the IBM-1 and IBM-2 models, are conveyed and compared with reasonable prior measured data. The potential energy surfaces (PES) of this nucleus for the distortion parameter in the SU(3)-O(6) symmetry in IBM-1 are determined and analyzed.

Un factor que ha llevado a un aumento en el uso de fuentes energéticas basadas en la utilización del sol, el viento, el agua o la biomasa (denominadas fuentes de energía renovables) es la necesidad de minimizar la aceleración del calentamiento. Con esta preocupación ambiental se han establecido diferentes estrategias enmarcadas dentro del enfoque del Desarrollo Sustentable haciendo necesaria una evaluación adecuada de los sitios idóneos para la utilización óptima de estos recursos. El presente se enmarca en la temática de las Fuentes No Convencionales de Energía Sustentable, proponiendo una revisión y simulación, teniendo en cuenta diferentes fuentes de información estadística para la identificación y determinación de los municipios idóneos en Colombia para el aprovechamiento del calor solar con el fin de instalar sistemas de energía solar térmica en función de las perspectivas técnicas, económicas y socioambientales (perspectivas del desarrollo sustentable). El estudio se realiza con el uso combinado de Sistemas de Información Geográfica y la Toma de Decisiones MultiCriterio.  En particular, se aplica uno de los métodos estadísticos multicriterio, concretamente el Proceso de Jerarquía Analítica (Analytic Hierarchy Process - AHP) y la técnica de las Sumas Ponderadas (Rank Sum) con la estrategia de evaluación conocida como Combinación Lineal Ponderada (Weighted Linear Combination –WLC). En el análisis se considera el modelo digital de elevación para descartar municipios de clima cálido-templado en Colombia.

Published: August 2024

Los sistemas de generación distribuida conectados a la red mediante inversores juegan un rol importante en los sistemas eléctricos modernos de distribución. Funcionalidades adicionales para mejorar la calidad de la energía y dar soporte a la red pueden ser incorporadas a los inversores de potencia, siendo este un campo de investigación y desarrollo de gran relevancia en la actualidad. Teniendo en cuanta esta tendencia mundial en donde los sistemas de generación distribuida han aumentado considerablemente su participación en la matriz energética, los códigos de red se están actualizando constantemente, y la operación y control de los dispositivos electrónicos de potencia deben considerar las dinámicas actuales que conlleven a un escenario de transición seguro y confiable. En este contexto, este trabajo presenta un sistema de control para un inversor fotovoltaico trifásico operando en modo de seguidor de red, el cual permite incorporar funcionalidades de corrección de factor de potencia y compensación de desbalance de carga al sistema fotovoltaico. Mediante este sistema de control es posible seleccionar las componentes de potencia de la carga a compensar, las cuales definen las funcionalidades de filtrado activo a integrar al sistema fotovoltaico con el fin de mejorar la calidad de la energía en el sistema de distribución. La operación del sistema fotovoltaico es evaluada mediante simulaciones en la plataforma Matlab/Simulink, considerando una carga lineal desbalanceada y cuatro diferentes modos de operación del inversor según las componentes de potencia de la carga a compensar. Los resultados obtenidos permiten verificar el cumplimiento de  los objetivos de control y evidencian ventajas y desventajas de los diferentes modos de operación considerados para el inversor de potencia.

Published: August 2024

El presente artículo propone un procedimiento para el cálculo de los índices de Calidad del Servicio de EnergíaEléctrica (CSEE) en un sistema de distribución con generación fotovoltaica (SFV) para diferentes capacidadesinstaladas. Dicho procedimiento se aplica al alimentador de prueba de 123 nodos de la IEEE, adaptando un historialde eventos de falla a 91 usuarios finales, y es implementado en un entorno simulado usando Matlab y OpenDss. Asímismo, se presenta una comparación entre los costos que conlleva la puesta en funcionamiento del SFV y losincentivos que percibe el operador de red (OR) por cumplir con la meta definida en la CREG 015 DE 2018 para lamejora de la CSEE. Como resultado, se aprecia que los incentivos dependen de manera no lineal de la capacidadinstalada del SFV. Dada la importancia de este tipo de aplicaciones para incrementar la penetración de las energíasrenovables, se plantea como futuro trabajo estudiar la viabilidad técnica de formar microrredes aisladas en lossistemas de distribución ante la presencia de una interrupción en el servicio.

The advent of Industry 4.0 has brought about a global transformation in various production chains, significantly impacting different sectors of society. However, one of the major challenges hindering its widespread adoption is the lack of adequately trained personnel equipped with the necessary skills to navigate advanced technologies. This has created a pressing need that can be addressed through teaching strategies implemented in higher education institutions. In this article, we present a case study conducted at the Laboratorio de Gestión de la Demanda Eléctrica of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia – Sede Manizales. Two panels incorporating Industry 4.0 technologies were constructed, and laboratory practices were developed to provide students in electrical and electronic engineering programs with knowledge in key areas such as the Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, and Data Analytics, with a specific focus on their application within the Colombian energy sector.

Janusz Korczak's work on child protection and its contemporary implications
Authors: Godawa Grzegorz
Published: August 2024

Janusz Korczak's pedagogy is focused on the child and its needs. The need to protect the child from abuse in its environment is especially important. The Polish pedagogue spoke out against this kind of abuse in his publications as well as in his educational activity. In 1912, together with Stefania Wilczyńska, he founded an orphanage in Warsaw. In that house, children's rights were protected and good conditions were created for their multifaceted development. During World War II, the house was closed down and its inhabitants were sent to a Nazi extermination camp. Janusz Korczak accompanied the exiled children and lost his life with them. Although he failed to protect his pupils from death, he showed that protection is a fundamental right of the child. It is a right which should be universally respected. The contemporary implications of Janusz Korczak's thoughts and activities can be observed in legal and pedagogical initiatives for child protection. Its scope should be constantly adapted to the current threats and changing conditions of social life. Korczak's call to respect the rights of the child which protect its dignity and freedom is still relevant.

Authors: Perdomo Oscar , Zuluaga Alejandro , Trujillo-Trujillo Edwin
Published: August 2024

Following the IUCN criteria, we assess the risk of extinction for ﬁve orchid species recorded for the ﬁrst time from Colombia: Acianthera viridis (Luer & Hirtz) Luer, Dichaea lankesteri Ames, Epidendrum lavendulum Hágsater, Masdevallia ariasii Luer, and Stenia stenioides (Garay) Dodson & R.Escobar. We propose a preliminary global Red List categories of Endangered, Least Concern, Endangered, Vulnerable, and Least Concern, respectively, for these species. The main threats of these orchids are habitat degradation, small and degraded AOO and EOO, and a small number of known populations. The Caraño river basin, where these species occur in Colombia, is an important site for orchid conservation. Consequently, strategies are needed to ensure its preservation.

Published: August 2024

This paper describes rock art sites in Cerro La Silla and Cerro Pachón, two hills in the semi-arid north of Chile thought to be associated with the El Molle cultural complex of 300 BC–800 AD. The geographic and climatic conditions in this area make it propitious for observing the sky, and the rock art is adjacent to modern observatories. Analysis of the local geography, motifs, themes and orientations of these symbolically charged locations demonstrates links between the sites and cultural expression relating to observation of nature and the sky in the context of a shamanic cult of the mountains.

The aim of the article is to present and analyse the sources of the Trzciniec culture coming from the site 9 in Lutoryż, which were obtained during archaeological excavations conducted in 2022 by ABP THOR sp. z o.o., and the Archaeological Workshop of Mirosław Mazurek. The site is part of a larger settlement cluster of the Trzciniec culture in the Rzeszów area, which has been known in the literature since 2003. The information and archaeological sources gathered in the course of the research complement and specify the knowledge about the settlement of the Trzciniec culture in this area. From the perspective of chronology and the diversity of sources, it is worth noting that considering the materials discovered at the site, they include both ceramic sources with „post-classical” stylistics as well as older materials representing the classical phase.
