An Assessment of Land Use Land Cover Changes and its Impact on Land Surface Temperature using Geoinformatic Techniques
Authors: Powar Sudhir K. , Panhalkar Sachin S. , Patil Prashant T.
Published: August 2024

This study aimed to evaluate alternation in land use and land cover (LULC) and its impact on land surface temperature (LST) in Kolhapur city and surrounding area, using Geoinformatic technology. Landsat and Resourcesat satellite data were used to study LST and LULC. ERDAS Imagine and ArcGIS software were used to pre-process the data. After pre-processing, an object-based classification approach was applied to analyze changes in LULC for the years 2001, 2011 and 2021. In 2001, built-up areas accounted for 22.88% of the region. By 2021, this proportion had increased by 17.93%, compared to 2001. During the same period, vegetation coverage decreased by 1.75% while agricultural lands also saw a reduction of 7.96%. A rapid alternation from vegetation and agricultural areas to built-up areas has been observed. As a result of this increasing urbanization in the southeast and southwest regions of study, LST values also rose by 1°C from 2001 to 2021. The highest and lowest normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) values recorded were 0.66 and −0.16 respectively in 2001 and 2021. Regression analysis also indicates a significant negative relationship between NDVI and LST. The findings indicate that the reduction in agricultural land and vegetation is crucial contributor to rising LST. This study will support the Government in enhancing its ability to create robust land management plans at both local and national scales.

PROBLEMS OF DEFINING PLAGIARISM IN ACADEMIC AND POP-JAZZ MUSICAL ART
Authors: БОБЕЙКО А А.
Published: August 2024

Статья посвящена проблеме определения состава преступления, связанного с плагиатом в музыкальном искусстве. Констатируя наличие сложной проблемы в сфере исключительно большой дистанции между теоретическими представлениями о плагиате и правоприменительной практикой и необходимостью совершенствования последней, автор ставит цель - прийти к пониманию возможных путей наиболее эффективного решения данной проблемы. Анализ текстов отечественного и зарубежного законодательства, а также научной литературы по исследуемой проблематике позволили прийти автору к выводу о том, что правоприменительная практика основана на формальном, совершенно не дающем возможности полноценного разделения плагиата и творческого заимствования, подходе. Анализ же научной литературы позволяет сделать вывод о том, что и наука на современном этапе ее развития не в состоянии дать конкретно-практических рекомендаций по такому разделению. Исследуя случаи досудебных и судебных разбирательств в сфере некорректных заимствований в академическом и эстрадно-джазовом музыкальном искусстве в России и за рубежом в XX-XXI веках, автор приходит к парадоксальному выводу об отсутствии необходимости совершенствования действующего законодательства...

The article is devoted to the problem of determining the corpus delicti of plagiarism in the art of music. Noting the presence of a complex problem in the area of an exceptionally large distance between theoretical ideas about plagiarism and law enforcement practice and the need to improve the latter, the author sets a goal - to come to an understanding of possible ways to most effectively solve this problem. Analysis of the texts of domestic and foreign legislation, as well as scientific literature on the issues under study, allowed the author to come to the conclusion that law enforcement practice is based on a formal approach that does not at all allow for a full separation of plagiarism and creative borrowing. An analysis of the scientific literature allows us to conclude that science at the present stage of its development is not able to give specific practical recommendations for such a division. Investigating cases of pre-trial and judicial proceedings in the field of incorrect borrowings in academic and pop-jazz musical art in Russia and abroad in the 20th - 21st centuries, the author comes to the paradoxical conclusion that there is no need to improve the current legislation...

Starphenes are structurally appealing three-fold symmetric polycyclic aromatic compounds with potential interesting applications in molecular electronics and nanotechnology. This family of star-shaped polyarenes can be regarded as three acenes that are connected through a single benzene ring. In fact, just like acenes, unsubstituted large starphenes are poorly soluble and highly reactive molecules under ambient conditions making their synthesis difficult to achieve. Herein, we report two different synthetic strategies to obtain a starphene formed by 19 cata-fused benzene rings distributed within three hexacene branches. This molecule, which is the largest starphene that has been obtained to date, was prepared by combining solution-phase and on-surface synthesis. [19]Starphene was characterized by high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) showing a remarkable small HOMO-LUMO transport gap (0.9 eV).
How Charge Regulation Affect Protein Uptake in Weak Polyelectrolyte Brushes
Authors: Radhakrishnan Keerthi , Beyer David , Holm Christian
Published: August 2024

Weak polyelectrolyte brushes are a promising platform for the selective capture and release of charged proteins from bulk solutions. Despite their potential for creating smart responsive surfaces, a detailed microscopic understanding of the uptake behavior in dependence of various parameters remains elusive. In this study, we employ coarse-grained, particle-based simulations to investigate how charge regulation under varying environmental conditions modulate the uptake and release of pH-responsive ampholytes, serving as a toy model for proteins, into weak polyelectrolyte brushes. For quenched brushes with constant ionization, the uptake of ampholytes remains strong across different isoelectric points. In contrast, for weak brushes, the ampholyte uptake becomes selectively sensitive to different isoelectric points and pKA-values and exhibits a non-monotonic behavior with changing pH. Enhanced proton partitioning into the brush lowers the local pH, significantly shifting the ionization states of both the brush (pKAapp > pKA) and ampholytes (pIapp > pI), such that the concurrent ionization of the brush and the ampholyte results in an optimum uptake strength for pKAapp < pH < pIapp. Adjusting the salt concentration broadens the uptake window and shifts the maximum uptake to higher pH values. Additionally, ampholytes with higher charge regulation capacitance near the isoelectric point demonstrate stronger adsorption, extending selective adsorption capabilities in ampholyte mixtures with similar isoelectric points.
Exploring combinations in chemoinformatics: Toward a multidisciplinary view
Authors: Medina-Franco Jose L. , López-López Edgar , Rodríguez-Pérez Johny R. , Cortés-Hernández Héctor F. , Homberg Samuel
Published: August 2024

In Chemoinformatics, as in many other computational-related disciplines, it is a common practice to identify the “single best” approach or methodology, for instance, identify the best fingerprint representation, the best single virtual screening approach or protocol, the optimal representation of the chemical space, the best predictive model, to name a few. In molecular modeling, a typical example is finding the best docking program. However, it is also known that each approach has its advantages and limitations. There are examples of benchmark studies comparing different approaches to find the most appropriate solution, and it is common to find that there are no single best programs in such studies. Yet, searching for the “best” methods is still common. The main goal of this work is to survey hybrid methodologies typically used in Chemoinformatics. The list of approaches is not exhaustive, but it aims to cover several representative applications. One of the major outcomes of the survey is that, for various purposes, individual methods do not perform as well as the combination of approaches because single methods have inherent limitations with advantages and disadvantages.
Outer-sphere CO release mechanism in the methanol to syngas reaction catalyzed by a Ru-PNP pincer complex
Authors: Liu Jiali , Rama Raquel J. , Cordero-Lanzac Tomás , Franke Robert , Nova Ainara
Published: August 2024

Methanol can be used as a surrogate model for H2 and CO in the synthesis of a large variety of chemicals. In this work, the mechanism for the methanol to syngas reaction catalyzed by a Ru-PNP pincer complex has been studied using DFT and CCSD(T) calculations with methanol and toluene as the solvent. In the proposed mechanism, the CO is directly released from the methyl formate byproduct, forming a Ru-OCH3 intermediate. This reaction is preferred in toluene compared to methanol due to the lower polarity of the organic products and the lower stability of the Ru-alkoxy intermediates. This mechanism differs from previous proposals going through a Ru-CO2CH3 intermediate. The computed Gibbs free energy barriers for the different mechanisms were compared to experimental data using a microkinetic model coupled to a liquid-vapor batch reactor model designed from reported experimental setups. After refining the organic reaction thermodynamics consistent with CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ method corrections, only our proposed mechanism shows a good agreement with the experimental H2 and CO formation. Our findings herein demonstrate the usefulness of microkinetic modeling to support reaction mechanisms by direct comparison of computational and experimental data. In addition, the proposed mechanism rationalises the decarbonylation reaction in a way that can be easily extended to other carbonyl substrates and acid-base catalysts.

COMPARING THE STRUCTURES OF INDONESIAN CHILDREN’S WRITINGS IN THE NARRATIVE OF HAPPY VS. SAD EXPERIENCES
Authors: Kushartanti Bernadette , Johanna Raina Dellani , Dewi Fitria Rahma
Published: August 2024

This study investigated Indonesian school-age children’s written narratives of their experiences involving happy and sad emotions. A question addressed in this study is: do different themes influence the composition of the components in the narratives? This study aimed to explain the children’s ability to produce narratives in written forms by focusing on the structures and comparing the components of the narratives on two experiences, applying Labov & Waletzky’s (1997) narrative components. The participants were elementary school students, aged 8–11 years (N = 131). All the children were assigned two writing tasks: one on a happy and one on a sad experience. Differences in themes in narratives were examined quantitatively. We identified the components of the narratives and classified them into complete, incomplete, complex, singular, and plural narratives. It was found that the children could already write cohesive stories, but some skipped certain components of the narratives. Differences between the stories were found in the number of clauses and the components.

Published: August 2024

The development of Indonesian and regional literature in the Archipelago is not only determined by internal conditions but also by external influences. Several years ago in Bali, an anthology of haiku in Balinese was published, which was clearly influenced by the form of haiku, traditional Japanese poetry. This article analyzes Balinese haiku collected in two anthologies, namely Bikul (Mouse, 2014) and Bubu (Fishtrapped, 2015), both by I Ketut Aryawan Kenceng. By applying a qualitative approach, this research data was collected through literature studies and interviews with poets and observers of modern literature in the Balinese language. The data were analyzed using structuralism and semiotic approaches. The results of the study show that Balinese haiku provides a cross-cultural identity (Japanese and Balinese) for modern Balinese literature. The results of this study contribute to our efforts to understand that this hybrid poem strengthens the opinion of scholars who say that Bali is an open fortress, meaning that it remains open to accepting outside influences but firmly maintains its artistic and cultural identity.Keywords: modern Balinese literature, Balinese language, haiku, cross-cultural identity, Japan

Authors: Wiratama Jansen , Wijaya Santo Fernandi , Tandika Idris , Santoso Hari
Published: August 2024

Conventional business processes sometimes lead to negligence and forgetfulness regarding important delivery requests, thereby causing operational disruptions that could impact the company's reputation. The limitations of conventional methods are also faced by CV Karya Pelangi, a company operating in the Die die-cutting industry, where many customer orders are usually submitted orally, causing problems that lead to late deliveries and delays in the production process. This problem is exacerbated by limited resources, for example, a delivery fleet consisting of only two drivers. Focuses on developing web-based applications with prototyping models and implementing the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm to overcome delivery route optimization challenges. This research produces a web-based application using a software prototype model. In addition to applying the ACO algorithm to identify optimal delivery routes, the app offers insights into the goods transported, shipper details, and departure and destination times. Simulation results show that CV Karya Pelangi can now determine short circuit paths efficiently, thereby increasing operational efficiency, with a path length of 0.3892 and a pheromone intensity of 2.569. This innovative solution promises to revolutionize cargo shipping operations, ensuring timely and efficient deliveries increasing customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

The results of experimental studies are presented, determining the internal defects of potato tubers using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method, which provide access to information about the state and distribution of water at the cellular and tissue levels. In order to carry out internal defect detection studies, three groups of potato tubers were prepared, comprising conditioned and unconditioned samples. The total sampling of potato tubers amounted to 38 samples. To create hidden defects in the form of darkening of tuber pulp, the method of controlled impact on a hard surface was used. Methodology for conducting experimental studies and time parameters of NMR are described. The studied potato tubers were placed in a strong magnetic field with intensity of 1.5 Tesla. Analysis of T2 images was chosen as the main method for analyzing the obtained results, since this method allows to trace one of the most important indicators of detecting internal damage of potato tubers – lack of water in the damaged areas of the pulp. The damaged areas in the images of tubers have a dark color, while the healthy tissue is light. A comparative analysis of images obtained using NMR and full-scale images of tubers’ section was carried out, allowing to determine with high accuracy the coincidence of location of defects detected by non-invasive method with their actual location in the tuber.  The study showed the value of NMR for a detailed non-invasive method for determining hidden defects in potato tubers on automatic grading machines.

On the issue of paradigmatic interdependence of contact and areal linguistics
Authors: Snigiriova N. A.
Published: August 2024

The article presents the theoretical foundations of the paradigmatic interdependence of contact and areal linguistics. The experience of scientific understanding of the spatial approach to the study of various aspects of language contact allows us to identify a tendency towards universalization of the conceptual apparatus of contact linguistics, as well as the correlation of the latter with the areal interpretation of the dialect landscape. It is emphasized that in the hierarchy of disciplines involved in the analysis of the processes and results of linguistic interaction, contact linguistics occupies a higher position. In this regard, the feasibility of integrating individual terms of this subject area into the categorical plane of areal linguistics is substantiated: the multifunctionality of the basic unit of contact linguistics – contacteme – makes it possible, firstly, to more objectively and accurately qualify complex areal phenomena (for example, when the stimulus for the emergence of innovation emanating from the source language is not equivalent to the result in the destination language), secondly, do not narrow the problem of language contacts to the issue of borrowings and bilingualism. Special attention is paid to the peculiarities of the terminological system of the described scientific fields. A number of issues are considered regarding the definition of the linguistic essence of the key concepts “contact zone”, “borrowing”, “infiltration”, etc. It is established that the term “contact zone” has conceptual significance not only for arealological studies, in a broader context it is included in the system concepts of contactology.

Purpose. To study the frequency of detection of atrophic endobronchitis in the structure of general bronchological appointments; search for reference points in the visual differential diagnosis of this condition; development of tactics for the use of additional diagnostic endobronchial ma-nipulations in case of detected mucosal atrophy, depending on the specific clinical situation. Material and methods. The frequency of detection of endobronchial atrophy was assessed based on the results of 21,126 primary diagnostic and treatment bronchoscopy performed in the endoscopic room No. 2 of the hospital of Samara City Hospital No. 4 for the period 2006–2023. Bronchoscopy was carried out both in the endoscopy room and in the intensive care unit according to generally accepted indications. Results. 388 (1.837%) patients with atrophic endobronchitis were identified. The etiology of endobronchial atrophy was dominated by community-acquired pneumonia and Pneumocystis pneumonia in patients with HIV infection. Differential diagnostic criteria for atrophic endobron-chitis and changes in the mucous membrane of the tracheobronchial tree during anemia, as well as dust and nicotine impregnation of the bronchial mucosa are proposed. For the etiological verifica-tion of bronchial deformation, a special algorithm for additional diagnostic endobronchial manipu-lations in the presence of focal or diffuse endobronchial atrophy is proposed.

A pesar de todo ello, el Grupo El Corte Inglés ha conseguido situar el beneficio bruto en
3.896 millones de euros, con un incremento del 30,5% respecto al ejercicio precedente; un
Ebitda de 804 millones de euros (756 millones más que el año anterior), y un beneficio neto
de 120 millones. El motor de la recuperación ha sido el negocio del retail que ha logrado unas
ventas de 11.300 millones, con una importante recuperación del área de moda, cuyo
crecimiento se sitúa en casi el 49% respecto al ejercicio de 2020. Destaca también el buen
comportamiento de la venta online, que ya representa el 12,3% del volumen total del negocio
de los grandes almacenes.
Esta evolución positiva ha sido posible gracias a la planificación realizada con antelación para
garantizar la disponibilidad de stock, especialmente en la temporada de Navidad, así como a
la eficiente negociación con los proveedores, una mejor planificación de las compras, y la
exposición limitada a las adquisiciones en Asia.
Dentro del retail, la moda ha experimentado un notable crecimiento al lograr una cifra de
ventas de 4.090 millones de euros (un 48,8% más que el año anterior); también han registrado
una fuerte evolución las ventas de hogar y electrodomésticos (un 11,3% más) que se han
situado por encima de los 1.302 millones, así como el área de cultura y ocio con un
incremento del 11,5% y una cifra de negocios de 2.145 millones. En el área de alimentación,
se ha corregido el momento excepcional que vivió el sector en 2020, situando el volumen de
ventas en 2.648 millones, lo que representa un leve descenso del 4,8%.

Published: August 2024

Resumo: O Câncer de Próstata (CaP) é uma neoplasia da glândula do sistema reprodutor masculino, localizada entre a
bexiga e o reto, responsável por parte da produção do fluido seminal. Objetivo: identificar as questões de gênero na saúde
do homem. Materiais e métodos: Foi realizado uma revisão bibliográfica qualitativa e descritiva, utilizando publicações
disponíveis nas bases dados SCIELO, LILACS e BIREME. Resultados e discussão: A partir da leitura exaustiva dos
artigos, foram delimitadas três categorias de análise, denominadas: Fatores de risco para o CaP, A política integral de
atenção à saúde do homem e seus resultados apresentados e a atuação do médico para a promoção da saúde do homem.
A Política Nacional de Atenção Integral à saúde do homem, instituída em 2008, tem como fragilidade dessa política a
inserção da população masculina brasileira na busca dos seus direitos de saúde. Há a necessidade de inserir esses homens
no intuito de concretizar ações, prevenindo doenças e permitindo seus direitos, além dos fatores de risco que possam
interferir nesse processo, como o preconceito para realizar o exame de rastreio. Por isso, a atuação do médico é
fundamental nesse processo. Conclusão: Foi possível observar que os serviços que realizam programas voltados para a
saúde do homem são discretos e que a difusão de informação é fundamental para conscientização da população e a
consequente procura por esses serviços.
Palavras-chave: Câncer de Próstata; Preconceito; Medicina.

Published: August 2024

This paper proposes a hybrid T-DEA-P (Taguchi-Data Envelopment Analysis-Pareto) method to optimise and rank parameters of the electrohydraulic forming process using the aluminium (AA1100) sheets for automotive panel application. A linear programming model was formulated based on the integrated Taguchi – DEA data and solved using DEA software. The design variables are the stand-off distance, electrode gap voltage and medium. The constraints are formulated according to the levels specified in the level-factor table. Using literature data, the validation of the method was made. An important result shows that case 1 has the optimal parametric setting is SOD3E2V2M2. This is interpreted as a stand-off distance of 3mm, an electrode gap of 30mm a voltage of 260 volts and the medium as Oil with a viscosity of 0.89cP. The delta values are 16.026, 16.0605, 17.1109 and 37.3587. Delta values measure the rate of change of the average signal-to-noise ratios relative to the changes in levels. Based on the Pareto intervention, the medium is ranked first while voltage, electrode gap and stand-off distance are ranked second, third and fourth, respectively. The method aids in the planning activity for the forming process.
GELATIN AND ARABIC GUM-BASED FOOD COATING FOR FOOD PACKAGING
Authors: Abd Abeer Adnan , Al-Khafaji Zainab
Published: August 2024

This review discusses the Arabic gum and gelatin-based films used in the food packaging industry. Gelatin is an essential biopolymer derivative of collagen. Various industries widely use it due to its technological and functional characteristics. Several constituents can be used as additives to recover their characteristics and requests. Antioxidants, antimicrobials, and other agents are used to increase customer attention and extend the food products shelf life. Food packaging is planned to protect food products, offer essential information related to the food, and make food handling suitable for consumer delivery. The Arabic gum and gelatin blend is suitable for keeping fruit and vegetables fresh for a long time due to the blended film's ability to cover the food and protect it from microbial and environmental effects. The film's composition of natural components that are safe to eat forms a protective layer to prevent gas, oxygen, and humidity.

A person with eyeball abnormalities or undeveloped eyeballs will definitely have reduced self-confidence, quality of life and psychological decline. Because the eyes are one of the most important aspects of life. Therefore, making eye prostheses is an important role in overcoming complaints and a person's quality of life. This case report explains in full the process from the initial stage to completion of making an eye prosthesis for a patient, where in this case there was a defect in the patient's left eye area caused by an abnormality in the development of the eyeball since birth. Making eye prostheses focuses on the size of the eye prosthesis, the color of the eye sclera, the size and color of the iris and the size of the eye pupil. This must be adjusted to the antagonist to get good aesthetics. Therefore, in this case, a custom-made prosthesis is used rather than a stock eye to achieve the desired fit. One of the advantages of using a custom-made prosthesis is that you can adjust the prosthesis to the condition of the available tissue, the results are more natural, and the cost is more affordable than stock eye prosthesis.

Growing seasons and environmental factors have a major impact on the bio-constituents of medicinal plants. The purpose of this study was to determine which metabolites were present and to look into the biological characteristics of Mangifera Indica leaves in the summer and winter seasons. Organic solvent extract (methanol) was used to extract the leaves of M. indica for the summer and winter. The results indicated the presence of phenols, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, alkaloids, phytosterol, saponins, steroids, and carbohydrates. The summer and wintertime methanolic leaf extracts were tested for their antibacterial activity against the microorganisms Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922). Studying zones of inhibition, the summer crude extract showed less antibacterial activity against S. aureus (ATTC 43300) than the control streptomycin. The methanolic extract of the leaves for summer and winter provided the highest recovery yield (27 and 23.3%, respectively). This implies that there are more polar in the leaves of M. indica than non-polar compounds. Phyto-metabolites such as phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, terpenes, terpenoids (steroids), triterpenes (cardiac glycosides), carbohydrates, proteins, and gums and mucilage were present in the crude hexane, chloroform, and methanol extracts. Utilizing the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) assay, an antioxidant screening was carried out. Compared to winter extracts, the summer leaf extracts demonstrated a higher IC50 capability for radical scavenging. In summary, methanolic extracts shown antibacterial activity and hexane and methanolic extracts demonstrated strong antioxidant activity.
