Lexicalization and Social Meaning of the Italian Subjunctive
Authors: Digesto Salvio
Published: March 2022

The usage of the Italian subjunctive, particularly in the context of embedded completive clause, can be considered a normative linguistic stereotype par excellence, to which speakers should pay particular attention if they want to speak ‘properly’. However, despite the massive effort of the normative enterprise, as well as the much scholarly attention garnered from linguists, overall consensus on what exactly constrains mood selection in discourse is not unanimous: whether it makes a semantic contribution, which verbs should trigger it, whether it signals more careful style. Grammarians are also concerned with the attrition of the subjunctive and its productivity in speech, fearing the loss of its supposed semantic contribution. Several studies have addressed these issues, but only a small amount of this body of work on Italian subjunctive has utilized a quantitative method and these assumptions have not been evaluated systematically under an accountable empirical methodology. The findings of the present variationist investigation illuminate new evidence in the patterning of subjunctive use in community-based spontaneous speech data and refuting the claims that it is productive and semantically-motivated. The analysis reveals a lexically motivated pattern of variation, i.e., the use of the subjunctive is mainly restricted to a handful of main clause verbs and a single embedded verb. Systematic analysis also shows a correlation between subjunctive choice and higher level of education, a social meaning that further strengthens the idea that no semantic contribution is made when the speaker opts for the subjunctive over the indicative, a phenomenon that is inherently variable.

Post-apokaliptik söylemde; devlet, toplum, ideolojiler ve komplo teorilerinin kurgulanışı: Metro 2033-2034-2035
Authors: AK Hediye  Şirin
Published: March 2022

Bu çalışmada, Post-apokaliptik edebiyat eserlerinde; devlet, toplum, ideolojiler ve komplo teorilerinin nasıl kurgulandığı incelemektedir. Bu amaçla Rus yazar Dmitry Glukhovsky tarafından kurgulanmış olan Metro kitap serisi örneklem olarak ele alınmıştır. Küreselleşen dünyada geleceğe dair korku ve endişeler post-apokaliptik edebiyat aracılığı ile kendini göstermektedir. İlgili eserler politik açıdan incelendiğinde farklı farklı devlet, toplum ve politika tahayyülleri karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu konudaki genel kanı ise kıyamet sonrasında devlet ve ideolojilerin yok olacağı yönündedir. Oysa politika ve ideolojiler tarihin her evresinde oldukları gibi felaketler sonrasında da olmaya devam edeceklerdir. İnsan topluluklarının olduğu her yer politikanın alanıdır. İnsanlar ve insanlar arası ilişkiler doğası gereği politikayı ve ideolojileri doğuracaktır. Kurumların kurumu olan devlet ise, onu benimseyen insanlar için zorunlu bir hale gelmiştir. İnsanlar her zaman devletleşmeye yönelmektedirler. Metro serisinin incelenmesi sonrası varılan sonuç ise; Dmitry Glukhovsky’un post-apokaliptik dünyasında devlet, ideolojiler, inançlar ve komplo teorileri varlığını sürdürmektedir. Her bir kavram şartlara göre kendisini dönüştürerek, ortama adapte olmuştur. Kavramların önemi ve insanların hayatlarında oynadıkları rol de bu vesile ile daha da belirginleşmiştir. Sonuç olarak; insanlar var oldukça politika, ideolojiler, inançlar, devlet ve komplo teorileri de var olmaya devam edecektir.

Published: March 2022

В статье рассматриваются особенности реконструкции многоэтажного здания с унифицированным железобетонным каркасом при изменении назначения здания (его перепрофилировании) с разделением зального помещения дополнительным перекрытием. Одной из таких особенностей реконструкции и проектирования здания с унифицированными каркасами является правильное определение нагрузки на несущие элементы здания и сравнение этих нагрузок с допустимой несущей способностью конструктивных элементов, которая указана в марках этих элементов. Приведены схема элементов сборного железобетонного унифицированного каркаса и конструктивные решения стыков его элементов, а также конструктивные решения встроенного металлического каркаса, металлических лестниц и перекрытия, разделяющего зал по высоте. При разработке конструктивных решений по реконструкции актового зала учитывалось требование создания минимально возможной дополнительной нагрузки на несущие элементы здания (плиты перекрытия, ригели, колонны, фундаменты). Практика показала, что наличие подробного описания унифицированных каркасов зданий постройки 70х 90х годов прошлого столетия значительно облегчает работу проектировщиков по реконструкции многоэтажных каркасных зданий.

The article discusses the features of the reconstruction of a multistorey building with a unifi ed reinforced concrete frame when changing the purpose of the building (its reprofi ling) with the separation of the hall room with an additional ceiling. One of such features of the reconstruction and design of abuilding with unifi ed frameworks is the correct determination of the load on the loadbearing elements of the building and a comparison of these loads with the permissible loadbearing capacity of structural elements, which is indicated in the brands of these elements. A diagram of the elements of a precast reinforced concrete unifi ed frame and structural solutions of the joints of its elements, as well as structural solutions of the integrated metal frame, metal stairs and fl oors dividing the hall in height are given. When developing constructive solutions for the reconstruction of the assembly hall, the requirement of creating the minimum possible additional load on the buildings supporting elements (fl oor slabs, crossbars, columns, foundations) was taken into account. Practice has shown that the availability of a detailed description of the unifi ed frameworks of buildings built in the 70s 90s of the last century greatly facilitates the work of designers in the reconstruction of multistorey frame buildings.

Published: March 2022

В приведенной работе обсуждаются итоги исследования влияния современных регуляторов роста растений (Домоцвет, Эпинэкстра, Циркон, Рибавэкстра, Экогель) на всхожесть семян и некоторые биоморфологические показатели многолетних цветочнодекоративных культур на примере представителей рода Gentiana L. Исследования проводили в 2017 2018 годах на базе ЮжноУральского ботанического садаинститута УФИЦ РАН. Объектами изучения являлись семена шести видов рода Gentiana (G. fetisowii, G. kirilowii, G. dahurica, G. septemfi da, G. lutea, G. trifl ora). Перед посевом семена замачивали в растворах регуляторов роста, приготовленных согласно инструкциям производителей, при комнатной температуре. Через три недели по каждому варианту определяли всхожесть семян. Спустя три месяца у сеянцев из каждого варианта опыта измеряли некоторые морфометрические параметры. Выявлено, что самыми результативными на прорастание семян оказались препараты Циркон и Экогель: они повысили всхожесть у всех изученных видов в 1,5 11,7 раза по сравнению с контролем. Регуляторы роста Эпинэкстра, Циркон и Рибавэкстра максимально повлияли на биоморфологические показатели (высота растений, длина главного корня, количество корней, длина и ширина листа). Таким образом, отмечено положительное влияние физиологически активных веществ на рост и развитие представителей рода Gentiana.

In this paper we discuss the results of the study of the infl uence of modern plant growth regulators (Domostvet, EpinExtra, Zircon, RibavExtra, Ecogel) on the germination of seeds and some biomorphological indicators of perennial fl owerornamental crops on the example of the genus Gentiana L. The research was carried out in 2017 2018 on the basis of the SouthUral Botanical GardenInstitute UFRC RAS. The subjects of the study were the seeds of six species of the genus Gentiana (G. fetisowii, G. kirilowii, G. dahurica, G. septemfi da, G. lutea, G. trifl ora). Before sowing, the seeds were soaked in solutions of growth regulators prepared according to the instructions of manufacturers at room temperature. After three weeks, seed germination was determined for each variant. Three months later, the seedlings from each variant of the experiment measured some morphometric parameters. It was revealed that the most effective preparations for seed germination were Zircon and Ecogel: they increased germination in all studied species by 1,5 11,7 times compared to the control. Growth regulators EpinExtra, Zircon and RibavExtra had the maximum effect on biomorphological parameters (plant height, length of the main root, number of roots, length and width of the leaf). Thus, there was a positive effect of physiologically active substances on the growth and development of the representatives of the genus Gentiana.

Представлены результаты гранулометрического и минералогического анализов пород лессовопочвенных комплексов верхнего плейстоцена и голоцена Приазовья. Их сопоставление между собой позволило выявить глинистость гранулометрическую и глинистость минералогическую Асташков, 2010, и несоответствие между ними по содержанию так называемой глинистой составляющей. По результатам гранулометрии глинистость пород завышена от 2,4 до 27,7 по сравнению с данными минералогического анализа изза присутствия в них тонкодисперсных частиц карбонатного, сульфатного и проч. состава. Поэтому при гранулометрических исследованиях необходимо говорить о пелитовой, а не о глинистой составляющей, как это происходит в настоящее время и на что ранее указывали многие исследователи Попов, 1957 Морозов, 1962 Классификационные критерии, 1984 и др..

The results of granulometric and mineralogical analyzes of loesssoil complexes of the Upper Pleistocene and the Holocene of Azov region are presented. A comparison of the results of the two analyzes revealed the gap between the content of clay fraction ( 0.005 mm) and clay minerals. The clay fraction content is higher in comparison with the proportion of clay minerals by 2.4 28. This difference is due to the presence of carbonate, sulfate and other nonclay minerals in the clay fraction. Therefore, in granulometric studies, it is necessary to speak of the pelitic, and not of the clay component, as previously pointed out by many researchers Popov, 1957 Morozov, 1962 Classifi cation criteria ..., 1984, etc..

Lipids and Small Molecules Affect α-synuclein Association and Disruption of Nanodiscs
Authors: Sanders Henry , Kostelic Marius , Zak Ciara , Marty Michael
Published: March 2022

Lipid membranes have recently been implicated in protein misfolding and disease etiology, including for α-synuclein and Parkinson’s Disease. However, it is challenging to study the intersection of protein complex formation, membrane interactions, and bilayer disruption simultaneously. In particular, the efficacies of small molecule inhibitors for toxic protein aggregation are not well understood. Here, we used native mass spectrometry in combination with lipid nanodiscs to study α-synuclein-membrane interactions. α-synuclein did not interact with zwitterionic DMPC lipids but interacted strongly with anionic DMPG lipids, eventually leading to membrane disruption. Unsaturated POPG lipid nanodiscs were also prone to bilayer disruption, releasing α-synuclein:POPG complexes. Interestingly, the fibril inhibitor, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), prevented membrane disruption but did not prevent the incorporation of α-synuclein into nanodisc complexes. Thus, although EGCG inhibits fibrilization, it does not inhibit α-synuclein from associating with the membrane.
How Nature makes O2: an electronic level mechanism for water oxidation in photosynthesis.
Authors: O'Malley Patrick , Rummel Felix
Published: March 2022

In this report we combine broken symmetry density functional calculations and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis to obtain the electronic structure of the penultimate S3 state of Nature’s water oxidising complex and determine the electronic pathway of O-O bond formation. Analysis of the electronic structure changes along the reaction path shows that two spin crossovers, facilitated by the geometry and magnetism of the water oxidising complex are used to provide a unique low energy pathway. The pathway is facilitated via formation and stabilisation of the [O2]3- ion. This ion is formed between ligated deprotonated substrate waters, O5 and O6, and is stabilised by antiferromagnetic interaction with the Mn ions of the complex. Combining computational, crystallographic and spectroscopic data we show that an equilibrium exists between an O5 oxo and O6 hydroxo form with an S=3 spin state and a deprotonated O6 form containing a two-centre one electron bond in [O5O6]3- which we identify as the form detected using XFEL crystallography. This form gives rise to an S=6 spin state which we demonstrate gives rise to a low intensity EPR spectrum compared with the accompanying S=3 state, making its detection via EPR difficult and overshadowed by the S=3 form. Simulations using 50% -70% of the S=6 component give rise to a superior fit to the experimental W- band EPR spectral envelope compared with an S=3 only form. The computational , crystallographic and spectroscopic data are shown to coalesce to the same picture of a predominant S=6 species containing the first one-electron oxidation product of two water molecules i.e. [O5O6]3-. Progression of this form to the two-electron oxidised peroxo and three-electron oxidised superoxo forms, leading eventually to the evolution of triplet O2 , is shown to be the pathway Nature adopts to oxidise water under ambient conditions. The study reveals the key electronic, magnetic and structural design features of Nature’s catalyst which facilitates water oxidation to O2 under ambient conditions.
Evaluation of Iron-Based Metal-Organic Framework Activation Temperature in Acetylene Adsorption
Authors: Day Gregory S. , Rowe Gerard T. , Ybanez Carlos , Ozdemir Ray O. , Ornstein Jason
Published: March 2022

One of the major issues regarding long-term human space exploration is the need for a breathable atmosphere. A major component towards achieving this goal is both the removal of exhaled carbon dioxide (CO2) and the generation or recovery of oxygen (O2). NASA’s current technology only operates at about 50% efficiency due to the need to vent the methane that is produced during the CO2 reduction process. One method of improving the efficiency of this process is through plasma pyrolysis, wherein the methane is pyrolyzed to produce hydrogen and various dehydrogenated carbon byproducts. In this process, acetylene is one of the main components of this byproduct stream. Unfortunately, while the concentration of this effluent is generally high in hydrogen (>90% typically) the presence of the acetylene waste product can act as a poison for the ruthenium-alumina catalyst used in the CO2 reducing Sabatier process, requiring a removal step. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a valuable method for removing these unsaturated hydrocarbons due to their high tunability, particularly through the incorporation of open metal sites. In this study, two common iron-based MOFs, MIL-100 and PCN-250, were studied for their ability to adsorb acetylene. A combination of gas adsorption analysis and density functional theory calculation results show the ability of these materials to undergo a thermal induced reduction event which results in an improvement in gas adsorption performance. This improvement in gas performance appears to be at least partially due to the increased presence of π-backbonding towards the acetylene molecules.

This study aims to examine the journey to maturity of the main character, Landon Carter, in A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks, by analyzing the literary elements that construct it. Employing a textual analysis method, this study is framed within Allport’s (1961) theory of maturity, and to discuss the analysis, Bean and Moni’s (2003) theory of young adult literature is also employed. The findings show that Landon’s journey to maturity is depicted mostly through the use of one literary element, namely characterization peculiar to Reams’ (2015). Based on Allport’s (1961) general criteria of maturity, throughout the story, Landon shows six types of maturity: (1) extension of the sense of self, (2) warm relatedness of self to others, (3) emotional security, (4) realistic perception of skills, (5) self-insight, and (6) unifying philosophy of life, and three types of immaturity: (1) an ego-centric sense of self, (2) emotional insecurity, and (3) lack of self-insight. Based on the analysis, several moral values can be obtained by young adult readers with different perspectives from reading Landon’s journey to maturity, such as the importance of being mature and the struggles of attaining maturity.

Published: March 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to specify an efficient forecast model for the accurate prediction of macroeconomic variables in the context of Pakistan.

Design/Methodology/Approach: We particularly investigate the comparative accuracy of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) models-based predictions using monthly data of inflation, exchange rate, and GDP from 1990 to 2014.

Findings: According to our findings, the ANN-based forecasted inflation series is more precise as compared to ARIMA-based estimates. On the contrary, the ARIMA model outperforms the ANN model for exchange rate forecasts with the forecasted values being very close to the actual values. Further, ARIMA performs comparatively better in forecasting GDP with relatively smaller forecast error. On the whole, our findings suggest the ARIMA model provides appropriate results for forecasting exchange rates and GDP, while the ANN model offers precise estimates of inflation.

Implications/Originality/Value: Our findings have important implications for the analysts and policymakers highlighting the need to use appropriate forecasting models that are well aligned with the structure of an economy.

Suatu sistem yang baik seharusnya memiliki nilai tegangan yang tidak melebihi batas toleransi dengan kerugian daya yang minimal. Kualitas tegangan sangat dipengaruhi oleh ketersediaan sumber daya reaktif pada sistem. Profil tegangan dan  rugi-rugi daya adalah dua parameter yang sangat perlu dijaga dalam sistem tenaga listrik (STL). Kompensasi daya reaktif adalah cara dalam mengatasi persoalan tegangan dan rugi-rugi daya dengan cara menginjeksi daya reaktif STL menggunakan device kontrol pada saluran tranmisi yang disebut dengan Flexible Alternating Current Tranmission System (FACTS) salah satunya Static VAR Compensator (SVC). SVC terdiri dari komponen Thyristor Controlled Reactor (TCR), Thyristor Switched Capasitor (TSC) dan Filter Capasitor (FC). Filter harmonisa terhubung paralel dengan TCR yang berfungsi untuk mengatasi harmonisa yang dihasilkan oleh TCR. Disamping itu, permasalahan penempatan kompensasi daya reaktif  yang optimal adalah menjadi perhatian pada makalah ini. Metode Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) digunkan untuk mencari lokasi yang tepat. Analisa aliran daya menggunakan Electric Transient Analysis Progam (ETAP). Dengan menempatkan SVC pada Bus 17 mampu mengurangi rugi-rugi daya aktif dari 0,155 MW menjadi 0,140 MW turun sebesar 0,15 MW setara dengan 10 kW dan untuk rugi-rugi daya reaktif dari 0,107 MVAR menjadi 0,097 MVAR turun sebesar 0,1 MVAR setara dengan 10 kVAR.
