Economía urbana y dispersión metropolitana: el rol de las cadenas de supermercado en la producción del espacio metropolitano en Belém (Pará, Brasil)
Authors: Veloso dos Santos Tiago
Published: July 2021

En el contexto de la dispersión de la Región Metropolitana de Belém, el presente trabajo analiza la actuación de uno de los agentes productores de espacio urbano con mayor influencia en la economía urbana de la metrópolis: las cadenas de supermercados minoristas. La investigación se centra en la lógica de actuación del grupo “líder” y su relación con la tendencia a la dispersión del tejido metropolitano, encabezado por la ciudad Belém. Se parte de la premisa de la emergencia de los grupos de supermercados minoristas como manifestación de una economía metropolitana organizada en torno al sector terciario moderno, especialmente al comercio y los servicios. La metodología de este trabajo abarca tres momentos: revisión bibliográfica, revisión documental, observaciones sistemáticas de campo y producción cartográfica de los procesos observados y datos estadísticos obtenidos.
Simulation of Groundwater Movement from Pits Fenced by Zchukovsky's Sprunts
Authors: Bereslavsky E. N.
Published: July 2021

The hydrodynamic production considers the filtration of liquid from the pits, fenced with spools of Zhchukovskiy, through a layer of soil, underrunable by a well-permeable pressure aquifer, on the roof of which contains an impenetrable area. To study infiltration on the free surface of groundwater, a mixed regional multi-parametric task of the theory of analytical functions is formulated, which is solved by the Semibarinova-Kochina method and methods of conformal display of areas of special species characteristic of the tasks of underground hydromechanics.

Bahnhofsmission in Deutschland. Im Kontext der Epochen der Wohlfahrtspflege
Authors: Nikles Bruno W.
Published: July 2021

The ›Bahnhofsmissionen‹ developed in the context of the tradition of Christian non-profit welfare work in Germany. Through their supporting organisations, they belong to the associations of the Protestant Diakonie and the Catholic Caritas, which have held a dominant position in social work in German society for many decades. The ›Bahnhofsmissionen‹ are highly respected by the public but nontheless work under permanently precarious financial conditions. Without the large number of volunteers, the persistence of their work would not be safeguarded. This makes their 125-year history all the more astonishing, interrupted only by bans during the National Socialist era (between 1939-1945) and the German Democratic Republic (between 1956 and 1990).
Die Bahnhofsmission als Seismograph gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung
Authors: Sauter-Ackermann Gisela
Published: July 2021

This article examines the question of why the ›Bahnhofsmission‹ is suitable as a seismograph of social change, how it performs this function, what it can achieve with it and where the limits of its possibilities lie. This is done with the help of self-reflection from the practice of the ›Bahnhofsmission‹ and with the help of practical examples. The seismograph function is described as a task of the station mission that goes beyond the individual case assistance and is of benefit to society as a whole. This involves drawing attention to changes at an early stage in order to identify structures of poverty and injustice as causes of need for help and exclusion and to contribute to their elimination. Due to their location at the station and their open, low-threshold concept, station missions have an excellent seismographic potential. Where they succeed in raising this potential, they can become incubators for innovation.
Die Bahnhofsmission als kirchlicher Ort im Bahnhof
Authors: Eurich Johannes
Published: July 2021

Railway stations are special places and important elements in urban life. They exist in a dual function of place and node, which is reflected in their service structure. In the station, the station mission provides support and assistance for people in certain life situations. This raises the question of the connection of the station mission as a social service to the church. The place of the »in-between« could hold a development potential for the interaction of parishes and new church places. The railway station mission could, thus, move from a marginal position in the church to a node in the network of church services. At the same time, as an explorative field for inclusion, it could contribute important experiences to inclusion processes.
Die Bahnhofsmission – Ort gelebter Ökumene. Theologische Reflexionen
Authors: Sattler Dorothea
Published: July 2021

This article examines the questions of why the ›Bahnhofsmission‹ is suitable as a seismograph of social change, how it performs this function, what it can achieve and where its limits lie. This is done with the help of self-reflection of the practice of the ›Bahnhofsmission‹ and by unfolding practical examples. The seismograph function is described as a task of the ›Bahnhofsmission‹ that goes beyond the core of individual case assistance and is of benefit to society as a whole. This involves drawing attention to changes at an early stage in order to identify structures of poverty and injustice as causes of need for help as well as of exclusion and to contribute to the elimination of those structures. Due to their location at the station and their open, low-threshold concept, ›Bahnhofsmissionen‹ have an excellent seismographic potential.

Bahnhofsmission als Forschungsgegenstand. Diakoniewissenschaftliche Perspektiven
Authors: Moos Thorsten
Published: July 2021

In this contribution, the railway mission (Bahnhofsmission) is conceived of as an object of research in interdisciplinary diaconic science. To that end, several perspectives are employed: the analysis of the multiple logics/ rationalities of a social organisation; theological hermeneutics of diaconic practice and its religious rationality; and, finally, the question of the location of religion within modern society, for which the railway mission shows to have a paradigmatic meaning.
Doing Bahnhofsmission. Methodische Überlegungen zur empirischen Erforschung einer diakonischen Praxis
Authors: Siegl Christine
Published: July 2021

An empirical study of the current practice of ›Bahnhofsmission‹ requires a research strategy that succeeds in taking the diversity of individual places and activities seriously. The ethnographic approach seeks out people in the execution of their practices and accompanies them over a longer period of time. The praxeological research perspective understands practice as a sensual human activity that is characterised by materiality, corporeality and temporality. This approach succeeds in depicting ›doing Bahnhofsmission‹ as a concatenation of diverse social practices.
Involvement of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptors in the Anticonvulsive Effects of Licofelone on Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Clonic Seizure in Mice
Authors: Gholizadeh Ramtin , Abdolmaleki Zohreh , Bahremand Taraneh , Ghasemi Mehdi , Gharghabi Mehdi , Dehpour Ahmad Reza
Published: July 2021

Background and Purpose: Licofelone is a dual 5-lipoxygenase/cyclooxygenase inhibitor, with well-documented anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, which is used for treatment of osteoarthritis. Recent preclinical studies have also suggested neuroprotective and anti-oxidative properties of this drug in some neurological conditions such as seizure and epilepsy. We have recently demonstrated a role for nitric oxide (NO) signaling in the anti-epileptic activity of licofelone in two seizure models in rodents. Given the important role of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) activation in the NO production and its function in the nervous system, in the present study, we further investigated the involvement of NMDAR in the effects of licofelone (1, 3, 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg, intraperitoneal [i.p.]) in an in vivo model of seizure in mice.Methods: Clonic seizures were induced in male NMRI mice by intravenous administration of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ).Results: Acute administration of licofelone exerted anticonvulsant effects at 10 (p<0.01) and 20 mg/kg (p<0.001). A combined treatment with sub-effective doses of the selective NMDAR antagonist MK-801 (0.05 mg/kg, i.p.) and licofelone (5 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly (p<0.001) exerted an anticonvulsant effect on the PTZ-induced clonic seizures in mice. Notably, pre-treatment with the NMDAR co-agonist D-serine (30 mg/kg, i.p.) partially hindered the anticonvulsant effects of licofelone (20 mg/kg).Conclusions: Our data suggest a possible role for the NMDAR in the anticonvulsant effects of licofelone on the clonic seizures induced by PTZ in mice.

Published: July 2021

Background and Purpose: Individualized anti-epileptic drug (AED) selection in patient with epilepsy is crucial. However, there is no unified opinion in treating patients with drug resistant epilepsy (DRE). This survey aimed to make a consolidate consensus with epileptologists’ perspectives of the treatment for Korean DRE patients by survey responses.Methods: The survey was conducted with Korean epilepsy experts who have experience prescribing AEDs via e-mail. Survey questionnaires consisted of six items regarding prescription patterns and practical questions in treating patients with DRE in Korea. The research period was from February 2021 to March 2021.Results: The survey response rate was 83.3% (90/108). Most (77.8%) of the responders are neurologists. The proportion of patients whose seizures were not controlled by the second AED was 26.9%. The proportion of patients who had taken five or more AEDs is 13.9%, and those who are currently taking five or more AEDs are 7.3%, of which 54.5% and 37.9% reported positive effects on additional AED, respectively. The majority (91.1%) of respondents answered that the mechanism of action was the top priority factor when adding AED. Regarding data priority, responders considered that expert opinion should have the top priority, followed by clinical experiences, reimbursement guidelines and clinical evidence. Responders gave 64.9 points (range from 0 to 100) about overall satisfaction on reimbursement system of Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service for AED.Conclusions: This study on AED therapy for DRE patients is the first nationwide trial in Korean epilepsy experts. In five drug failure, the top priorities on AED selection are mechanism of action and expert opinion. These findings might help to achieve consensus and recognize the insight on optimal therapy of AED in DRE.
A Severe Dementia Case in End of Life Care with Psychiatric Symptoms Treated by Perampanel

Published: July 2021

Epilepsy is known to comorbid with Alzheimer's disease. It can promote cognitive decline, and eventually worsen their prognosis and mortality. It is sometimes difficult to find a suitable drug because of the adverse effects. Perampanel has a unique mechanism of action that antagonizes α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid type glutamate receptor. Here, we report a case of severe dementia due to Alzheimer's disease with intractable epilepsy, which perampanel effected for controlling seizures with less adverse effects. The subject is an 89-year-old Japanese woman with severe dementia due to Alzheimer's disease and intractable myoclonic epilepsy. She also had psychiatric symptoms, such as circadian rhythm disorder and irritability. Valproic acid, lacosamide, or carbamazepine were prescribed, but none of them was effective. Shortly after perampanel started, however, myoclonus and these psychiatric symptoms improved. Moreover, it did not cause any obvious adverse effects, which made it possible to continue perampanel until the end of her life. Perampanel may be useful for controlling intractable epilepsy accompanied by Alzheimer's disease. It may also improve psychiatric symptoms with less adverse effect. Accumulation of studies is necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of perampanel on the epilepsy of Alzheimer's disease patients and further understand that mechanism.
Ictal Swearing as a Lateralizing Value for the Dominant Hemisphere in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Authors: Ju Woohee , Kim Jong-Su , Park Yangmi , Koo Dae Lim , Nam Hyunwoo
Published: July 2021

Ictal swearing, as an epileptic manifestation, has rarely been reported. Despite its poor localization value and unclear mechanism, several previous studies have reported that it frequently originates from the temporal lobe and more often from the non-dominant hemisphere. Herein, we report a case of a 41-year-old right-handed man with a history of stereotypical manifestation of ictal swearing with a left (dominant) hemisphere origin, confirmed by video electroencephalography monitoring. Reasonable suspicion that repetitive swearing could be a manifestation of seizures is important for clinicians not to misdiagnose the disease.

Authors: Filaila Nuzila Fitri , Suryanti Suryanti , Widiastuti Ani
Published: July 2021

Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is one of important diseases causing postharvest losses on chili. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the zero energy cool chamber (ZECC) in reducing the severity of anthracnose in Capsicum frutescens L. and extending the shelf life of chilies. The research was started by designing and building ZECC as a storage area for chilies. Chilies with and without fungal inoculation were stored in ZECC and storage chamber at room temperature. C. gloeosporioides experienced a growth inhibition of 40.48% after being stored in ZECC compared to its growth at room temperature. Storage of chilies in ZECC was able to reduce the severity of anthracnose by 56.2% on the 15th day, did not affect vitamin C content and total dissolved solids (TSS) and was able to reduce chilies weight loss during storage. Based on the organovisual test using the visual quality rating method and the Hedonic sensory test, consumers prefer chilies stored in the ZECC. The results showed that storage in ZECC could extend the shelf life of chilies. This storage model does not use electricity or is zero energy so it can be used by small scale farmers. This is the first report on the use of ZECC for the management of anthracnose in postharvest chilies in Indonesia.

Jesus and the Bulldozer: Religion, Suburbanization, and Urban Renewal in a New Jersey Camp Meeting Community
Authors: Avery-Quinn Samuel
Published: July 2021

The history of suburbanization in New Jersey is a well-established topic in the scholarly literature. Since the middle decades of the nineteenth century, the state’s northeastern and southwestern areas have become dense with suburban communities tied, culturally and economically, to New York City or Philadelphia. By the early twentieth century, these areas were a mix of middle-class white enclaves, Black towns, immigrant and working-class communities, agricultural hamlets, and industrial suburbs. However, in the late nineteenth century, some suburbs emerged as religious retreats. This article explores how suburbanization and, by the 1960s, urban renewal, transformed the Gloucester County borough of Pitman’s landscape. Founded in 1871 as a Methodist camp meeting resort, the history of Pitman demonstrates ways that religion complemented suburbanization, and suburbanization, amid religious decline and secularization, reshaped the religious landscape of one South Jersey community.
Photographers of the Civil War Era: Frank H. Price of Elizabeth and Newark

Published: July 2021

This article is another about the generation of New Jersey photographers who began their career during the U.S. Civil War, initiated with the consideration of Theodore Gubelman in the Winter 2020 issue of New Jersey Studies. Please see that issue for a general introduction. This essay is a case study about Frank H. Price, who also served in the Union Army, and although, like Gubelman, Price had a successful business over a number of years, he had different personal and professional experiences that broaden our understanding of life in the Garden State in the second half of the nineteenth century. Experiencing many of the same events as his portrait subjects, Price is an exemplar of the ambitious young men who personified what Ralph Waldo Emerson characterized in 1844 as “the Young American,” who engaged in the marketplace of ideas and commerce in “a country of beginnings, of projects, of designs, and expectations.” Although Price did not live to old age, he made his mark among his contemporaries. His story includes typical and exceptional experiences, triumphs and tragedies. Note: You can find additional Frank Price photos here: https://web.ingage.io/Pfs9hng.

Weibull distribution of selective laser melted AlSi10Mg parts for compression testing
Authors: KHAN Hamaid Mahmood
Published: July 2021

Selective laser melting (SLM) is an additive manufacturing process to fabricate three-dimen- sional structures by fusing powder particles using a computer-guided laser source. The SLM process can produce lightweight bespoke designs, having high strength comparable to con- ventional components. However, the developed surface texture and some of the mechanical properties are still sub-standard compared to the conventional components. The process un- certainty can produce inconsistency in parts’ properties, even those prepared concurrently, affecting SLM parts' repeatability and quality. Therefore, designing applications based on the most probable outcome of the desired properties can embrace process uncertainty. Weibull distribution is a statistical-based probability distribution method that measures the likelihood of the values’ occurrence of any random variable falling in a specific set of values. In this study, the Weibull distribution measured the relative likelihood (90% probability) of the compressive yield, and ultimate strength of the SLM prepared AlSi10Mg samples in a given 22 random sample size. The results showed that the compressive yield and ultimate strength fall between 321 MPa to 382 MPa and 665 MPa to 883 MPa.

damentów polskiej kultury i tożsamości. Relacje te autor artykułu rozpatruje na płaszczyźnie genetycznej i formalnej współzależności pomiędzy stylowym inwariantem polszczyzny biblijnej a literacką odmianą języka polskiego. W tym celu przywołane zostały dotychczasowe ustalenia teoretyczne oraz badania materiałowe ukazujące kierunki i formy owych wpływów, skutkujące powstaniem głównych konstant stylowych polszczyzny biblijnej, a także wskazujące na znaczenie Biblii i jej rodzimych przekładów na kształtowania się polszczyzny literackiej. Zwrócona została także uwaga na nowsze możliwości badań nad uwarunkowaniami relacji polszczyzna biblijna – polszczyzna literacka, które wynikają z odwołania się do retorycznego i literackiego dziedzictwa poszczególnych ksiąg Pisma Świętego. Artykuł dostarcza szeregu argumentów na rzecz obrony literackości polszczyzny biblijnej, jako faktu wynikającego z jej rodzimych doświadczeń historycznych, jak też z właściwości odziedziczonych z prymarnego stylu biblijnego. Na prawach polemicznych w artykule znalazły się również krytyczne odniesienia do tych spośród nowszych inicjatyw translacyjno-biblijnych, które zmierzają do oderwania polszczyzny biblijnej od jej wzorca literackiego oraz normy stylu wysokiego.
„Obejmuję spojrzeniem duszy całą Ojczyznę umiłowaną” – ojczyzna jako wartość w homiliach Jana Pawła II
Authors: Rybka Małgorzata , Wrześniewska-Pietrzak Marta
Published: July 2021

Ojczyzna to pojęcie wielowymiarowe, wielopoziomowe, abstrakcyjne i konkretne, które obejmuje przestrzeń, miejsca, dom, ludzi, ich dobro, rodzinę. Ojczyzna jest również wartością. O ojczyźnie wielokrotnie mówił i pisał Jan Paweł II. Analizie pod tym kątem poddane zostały teksty jego homilii i przemówień wygłoszonych przez podczas kolejnych pielgrzymek do kraju, które wydane zostały w zbiorze Pielgrzymki do Ojczyzny 1979–1983–1987–1991–1995–1997–1999–2002. Przemówienia, homilie, Kraków 2006. W sposobie pojmowania ojczyzny przez Karola Wojtyłę szczególną uwagę zwraca wyraźny antropocentryzm. Ojczyzna to wartość wymagająca zaangażowanej postawy, patriotyzmu i odpowiedzialności. Relacja ojczyzna – osoby związane z tą określoną przestrzenią geograficzno-społeczno-historyczno-kulturowo-aksjologiczno-symboliczną w papieskich tekstach zyskuje ramy zależności rodzinnych. Najczęściej konceptualizowana jest ona jako kochająca matka, wobec której odczuwa się miłość, szacunek i wdzięczność. Ojczyzna w tekstach Jana Pawła II to przede wszystkim ludzie, rodacy, których właśnie ona łączy we wspólnotę mimo dzielących ich różnic. Ojczyzna to także wielka ponadczasowa wartość duchowa, transcendentna, łącząca sanctum z sacrum.

A mixed-methods study of English vocabulary for medical purposes: medical students’ needs, difficulties, and strategies
Authors: Reynolds Barry Lee , Zhang Xiaofang , Ding Chen
Published: July 2021

This mixed-methods study investigated the English medical vocabulary strategies, needs, and difficulties of Taiwanese medical school students via an open- and closed-ended questionnaire (n = 17), a test measuring vocabulary size (n = 17), student interviews (n = 5), and teacher interviews (n = 3). Students reported using some vocabulary strategies more than others. A statistically significant negative relationship between students’ English vocabulary size and their use of word cards for vocabulary learning was also revealed. Through analysis of the interview data gathered from the medical students and their English teachers, five vocabulary learning difficulties faced by the medical students were uncovered: (1) nonexistent intentional English vocabulary learning, (2) stagnant specialized medical English vocabulary acquisition, (3) lack of sufficient contextualized academic English writing practice with newly encountered specialized medical vocabulary; (4) lack of teacher feedback on the students’ vocabulary use; and (5) lack of pedagogical communication among faculty. The pedagogical implications of these results were discussed with a focus on improving students’ vocabulary learning efficiency in light of their specialized English medical vocabulary needs.
Parametric investigation and optimization for CO2 laser cladding of AlFeCoCrNiCu powder on AISI 316
Authors: Menghani Jyoti , Vyas Akash , More Satish , Paul Christ , Patnaik Amar
Published: July 2021

The purpose of the current investigation is to analyze the effect of the operating parameters of laser-assisted cladding process on clad height, clad depth, clad width and the percentage dilution in a cladding of AlFeCuCrCoNi high-entropy powder on SS-316 through CO2 laser and to optimize the cladding process parameters for optimum dilution. The experiments were designed by the full factorial method and analyzed by ANOVA. The analysis results indicate that dilution is most influenced by scanning speed followed by the powder feed rate. The outcomes of the single clad profile in terms of dilution, microhardness, composition and the microstructures produced in various cladding conditions are investigated briefly, and through which the optimum set of laser cladding operating parameters for maximum hardness of the clad material is determined. The optimum cladding conditions in the experimental range were obtained at 4 g/min powder feeding rate, 500 mm/min laser scanning speed and 1.1 kW laser beam power through multi-response optimization. Furthermore, the multi-track coating with 60% overlapping ratio was deposited using optimized parameters. The wear behavior of multi-track coating was determined using pin on disk wear apparatus with applied load of 20 N, sliding speed of 300 RPM and test duration of 15 min. The pin on disk wear test results indicates that the friction coefficient of SS-316 is larger than that of high-entropy alloy cladded SS-316. The wear resistivity of SS-316 improved by 40.35% after laser-assisted high-entropy alloy coating, which confirms that the laser cladding layer plays an essential role in enhancing the wear resistance capability of austenite steel.

Published: July 2021

This research focuses on the use of protein-polyphenol complex and protein-polyphenol: polysaccharide complexes to prepare oleogels through an emulsion-templated approach. Electrolysis soy protein isolate (ESPI) could be effectively adsorbed on the surface of a single-layer emulsion to increase the particle size. The order of the negative charges of the emulsion after adding polysaccharides was xanthan gum (XG)> pectin> carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). Rheological behavior showed that the stability of the double-layer emulsions increased, and the viscoelasticity increased around one order of magnitude with the addition of polysaccharides. The oil binding capacity (OBC) of the oleogel prepared by adding polysaccharides increased to more than 97%. The peroxide value (PV) and anisidine value (AV) of XG oleogel were the minimum values in all samples. The AV and POV were within the regulatory limits of China after storage for 21 days. This provides a reference to design of ESPI-based oleogel for different applications.

The most promising metal processing additive manufacturing technique in industry is selective laser melting, but only a few alloys are commercially available, limiting the potential of this technique. In particular high strength aluminum alloys, which are of great importance in the automotive industry, are missing. An aluminum 2024 alloy, reinforced by Ti-6Al-4V and B4C particles, could be used as a high strength alternative for aluminum alloys. Heat treating can be used to improve the mechanical properties of the metal matrix composite. Dynamic scanning calorimetry shows the formation of Al2Cu precipitates in the matrix instead of the expected Al2CuMg phases due to the loss of magnesium during printing, and precipitation processes are accelerated due to particle reinforcement and additive manufacturing. Strong reactions between aluminum and Ti-6Al-4V are observed in the microstructure, while B4C shows no reaction with the matrix or the titanium. The material shows high hardness, high stiffness, and low ductility through precipitation and particle reinforcement.

In the field of dental technology, the length of ceramic pontics is limited to avoid mechanical failure. To reduce thermal-induced residual stress within the ceramic, using smaller subcomponents and subsequent bonding with silicate-based glass solder may be a favorable approach. Thus, the bending strength of zirconia compounds bonded with different silicate-based glass solders was investigated. For this purpose, rectangular specimens made of zirconia were bonded by glass solder. Parameters such as the scarf angle (45° and 90°), two different glass solders, as well as the soldering process (pressure and surface treatment) were varied. All specimens were subjected to quasi-static four-point bending tests according to DIN EN ISO 843-1. Additionally, the quality of the glass solder connection was evaluated usingμCT and fractography. In the present study, zirconia compounds were sucessful bonded of zirconia compounds using silicate-based glass solder was. No significant differences in terms of bending strength were observed with respect to the different bonding parameters analyzed. The highest bending strength of 130.6 ± 50.5 MPa was achieved with a 90° scarf angle combined with ethanol treatment of the specimens before soldering and an additional application of a pressure of 2 bars in a dental pressure pot before subsequent soldering. Nevertheless, the bending strengths were highly decreased when compared to monolithic zirconia specimens (993.4 ± 125.5 MPa).

Stir cast aluminum based metal matrix composites (MMCs) with silicon carbide (SiC) reinforcement particles consist of cast product dendrites and large agglomerated reinforcements. The agglomeration of SiC particles creates a difference in properties in the composite system. Friction stir processing (FSP) is used to overcome the uneven distribution of SiC particles in the aluminum matrix. The friction stir processed (FSPed) microstructure is significantly influenced by the process parameters used for processing. In FSP, the effect of the tool diameter ratio (tool shoulder diameter to pin diameter) on material flow, material mixing, material consolidation is more predominant than other parameters. Hence, a perfect combination of shoulder diameter to pin diameter is required to produce sufficient material flow. In this investigation, the tool diameter ratio is varied from 2.0 to 4.0 for processing composite material and thus FSPed zones were subjected to micro structural characterization. It was concluded that a tool diameter ratio of 3.0 yielded a defect free stir zone with higher hardness compared to other ratios.
A density measurement device for solid objects with uneven geometry
Authors: Koca Tarkan
Published: July 2021

Hydrostatic measurement, a method traditionally used to measure the density of solid bodies, is not suitable for all solid bodies. This method is undesirable for solid materials that interact with water and lose their properties. In addition, this method is not suitable for porous objects because measurements in water are erroneous and can damage material samples due to the ability of some solid materials to absorb water. In this study, a new density measurement technique has been developed and evaluated to measure the density of rigid objects by means of nonstandard geometry. The density of objects with distorted geometry was measured pneumatically using communicating vessels logic and using the ideal gas equation. An experiment set has been developed, improved and evaluated. Through this technique, the measurement accuracy of the density of the sample tested was determined with an accuracy of 0.08 %.
High-order multipoles in all-dielectric metagrating enabling ultralarge-angle light bending with unity efficiency
Authors: Huang Tie-Jun , Yin Li-Zheng , Zhao Jin , Liu Pu-Kun
Published: July 2021

Gradient metasurfaces have been extensively applied in the unprecedented control of light beams over thin optical components. However, these metasurfaces suffer from low efficiency when bending light through large angles and high fabrication demand when it requires fine discretion. In this work, we investigate all-dielectric metagratings based on the generalized Kerker effect induced by interference between Mie-type resonances. It allows extraordinary optical diffraction for beam steering through ultralarge angles. The coupling inside and between the lattices in the metagrating can be used to tune the excited states of the electric and magnetic resonances, including both the fundamental dipoles and high-order multipoles, leading to an ideal asymmetrical scattering pattern that redistributes the energy between the diffraction channels as required. The quadrupole and hexadecapole not only significantly enhance the working efficiency but also enable distinctive possibilities for wave manipulation that cannot be reached by dipoles. Utilizing a thin array of silicon rods, large-angle negative refraction and reflection are realized with almost unity efficiency under both transverse magnetic and transverse electric polarization. Compared with conventional metasurfaces, such an all-dielectric metagrating has the merits of high flexibility, high efficiency, and low fabrication requirements. The coupling and interactions among the multipoles may serve as a foundation for various forms of on-chip optical wave control.

Derrida’s “chimerical experimental exercise”: an ecolinguistic dream of a more biocentric language
Authors: Moser Keith
Published: July 2021

The purpose of this study is to probe the implications of Derrida’s linguistic theories in his late philosophy. Adopting an interdisciplinary and deconstructive approach to critical discourse analysis that erodes the foundation of anthropocentric binary thought paradigms, this exploration of Derrida’s ecolinguistic dream of a more biocentric language (re-)problematizes three specific cognitive structures that represent an unsustainable form of dichotomous thinking. The philosopher illustrates that the concept of “human” and “animal,” the “genesis myth,” and the Cartesian notion of theBête machineare deadly delusions that must be replaced with a more biocentric outlook on life.
New Approach to Concurrent VS and VP Measurements Using Bender Elements
Authors: Ferreira Cristiana , Díaz-Durán Fredy , Viana da Fonseca Antonio , Cascante Giovanni
Published: July 2021

Bender elements (BEs) have become a routine geotechnical laboratory tool for seismic wave velocity measurements. Since the 1980s, this testing technique has gained popularity, currently being available in many geotechnical laboratories worldwide in a variety of apparatuses. The advantage of simultaneously measuring small- and large-strain soil stiffnesses in each device and the easiness and low-cost implementation of BE are the main reasons for their common application. Although there is already a standardized procedure for BE testing (ASTM D8295-19, Standard Test Method for Determination of Shear Wave Velocity and Initial Shear Modulus in Soil Specimens Using Bender Elements), the use of high-frequency pulses for the simultaneous measurement of compressional (VP) and shear (VS) wave velocities is not considered. In contrast, the use of high-excitation frequencies is usually discouraged, as they tend to induce spurious participation of high-vibration modes in the BE response. However, this work shows that the use of higher vibration modes can be advantageous to evaluate P-wave velocities from standard BE testing. Thus, this paper presents a new approach for the concurrent measurements of VP and VS using a typical installation of BE. The new approach is first demonstrated by experimental measurements and subsequently validated using high-frequency laser vibrometer measurements of the actual BE deformation (nanometer scale) under different excitation frequencies. The laser vibrometer measurements show the displacements of the transmitter BE as a function of the input frequency in not only the horizontal but also in the vertical directions, demonstrating the generation of P-waves when higher vibration modes are excited. The measured VP values are shown to be in good agreement with the predicted values using Biot’s equations. Thus, the proposed methodology addresses the current knowledge gap in the use of BE for concurrent P-wave and S-wave velocity measurements. The generated wavelengths are large enough to travel through the soil skeleton instead of the pore water only.

The role of blood flow in vascular development is complex and context-dependent. In this study, we quantify the effect of the lack of blood flow on embryonic vascular development on two vascular beds, namely the cerebral and trunk vasculature in zebrafish. We perform this by analysing vascular topology, endothelial cell (EC) number, EC distribution, apoptosis, and inflammatory response in animals with normal blood flow or absent blood flow. We find that absent blood flow reduced vascular area and EC number significantly in both examined vascular beds, but the effect is more severe in the cerebral vasculature, and severity increases over time. Absent blood flow leads to an increase in non-EC-specific apoptosis without increasing tissue inflammation, as quantified by cerebral immune cell numbers and nitric oxide. Similarly, while stereotypic vascular patterning in the trunk is maintained, intra-cerebral vessels show altered patterning, which is likely to be due to vessels failing to initiate effective fusion and anastomosis rather than sprouting or path-seeking. In conclusion, blood flow is essential for cellular survival in both the trunk and cerebral vasculature, but particularly intra-cerebral vessels are affected by the lack of blood flow, suggesting that responses to blood flow differ between these two vascular beds.

Authors: Kim Sung Guen
Published: July 2021

For $n\geq 2,$ we show that every extreme point of the unit ball of ${\mathcal L}_s(^2l_{\infty}^n)$ is extreme in ${\mathcal L}_s(^2l_{\infty}^{n+1})$, which answers the question in [Period. Math. Hungar. 2018, 77 (2), 274-290]. As a corollary we show that every extreme point of the unit ball of ${\mathcal L}_s(^2l_{\infty}^n)$ is extreme in ${\mathcal L}_s(^2l_{\infty})$. We also show that every extreme point of the unit ball of ${\mathcal P}(^2l_{\infty}^2)$ is extreme in ${\mathcal P}(^2l_{\infty}^n).$ As a corollary we show that every extreme point of the unit ball of ${\mathcal P}(^2l_{\infty}^2)$ is extreme in ${\mathcal P}(^2l_{\infty})$.

We investigate the local convergence of the Gauss-Newton-Kurchatov method for solving nonlinear least squares problems. This method is a combination of Gauss-Newton and Kurchatov methods and it is used for problems with the decomposition of the operator. The convergence analysis of the method is performed under the generalized Lipshitz conditions. The conditions of convergence, radius and the convergence order of the considered method are established. Given numerical examples confirm the theoretical results.
