Leituras de Corpo vivo, identidades híbridas por escrito
Authors: Pinho Adeítalo Manoel
Published: July 2023

Estudo o romance Corpo vivo, de autoria do escritor baiano Adonias Filho. Esse romance, ao mesmo tempo em que atualiza uma corrente forte na ficção brasileira – o indianismo, providencia uma visão problematizada da ocupação econômica da região Sul do Estado da Bahia. A cultura do cacau, uma das mais ricas culturas agrícolas do início do século XX, no País, oferece oportunidade de o romancista investigar o modo de civilização, organização política, encontro de culturas, configurados em torno da urgência das lavouras cacaueiras. Por isso, faz-se oportuno o uso da nomenclatura teórica em voga no início do século XXI, notadamente, o pós-colonialismo e o agenciamento.

Authors: Sakhrekar Rajendra , Yoon Samuel , Iorio Carlo , Raut Saijyot , Raj Aditya
Published: July 2023

Introduction- Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a malignant and aggressive bony tumor affecting the most common age group of 5-20 years. It constitutes 10%-15% of all bone sarcomas and is the second most common primary malignant bone tumor after osteosarcoma. Methods- We undertook a review of the literature on Ewing’s Sarcoma of the spine to evaluate its etiology, clinical presentations, differential diagnosis, imaging modalities, and management with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgical management. PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar, and Cochrane key articles were searched. Keywords like ‘Ewing’s Sarcoma’, ‘Spine’, ‘etiology’, ‘treatment’, ‘surgical management’, and ‘en bloc resection’ were used Discussion- The current management of Ewing’s sarcoma of the spine usually involves three main modalities: combination chemotherapy, surgery, and/or radiotherapy. Recent improvements in combination chemotherapy (vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide +/- Ifosfamide, and etoposide) are one of the most significant factors for improving survival. Also, recent advancements in radiotherapy and instrumentation, and fusion techniques in surgical management have also been demonstrated to improve local disease control and overall survival. Conclusion- Primary Ewing sarcoma of the spine is a rare condition affecting the most common age group of 5-20 years and accounting for 1-3 cases/million/year. About 5 % of cases have spine involvement. Recent improvements in combination chemotherapy have improved the overall survival rates. En block resection and/or radiotherapy have improved local control of the disease. Keywords: Ewing’s Sarcoma, Spine, etiology, Treatment, Surgical management, En-bloc resection
High dynamic reflection surface 3D reconstruction with sharing phase demodulation mechanism and multi-indicators guided phase domain fusion

Published: July 2023

Accurate and complete 3D measurement of complex high dynamic range (HDR) surfaces has been challenging for structured light projection technique. The behavior of spraying a layer of diffuse reflection material, which will inevitably incur additional thickness. Existing methods based on additional facilities will increase the cost of hardware system. The algorithms-based methods are cost-effective and nondestructive, but they generally require redundant patterns for image fusion and model training, which fail to be suitable for practicing automated 3D measurement for complex HDR surfaces. In this paper, a HDR surface 3D reconstruction method based on sharing demodulation phase unwrapping mechanism and multi-indicators guided phase fusion strategy is proposed. The division of the exposure interval is optimized via the image entropy to generate an optimal exposure sequence. The combination of temporal-spatial binary (TSB) encoding fringe patterns with time-integration strategy and the variable exposure mode of digital mirror device (DMD)-based projector with a minimum projection exposure time of 233μs enables the proposed approach to broadly adapt complex HDR surfaces. We propose an efficient phase analysis solution called sharing mechanism that wrapped phase sequences from captured different intensity fringe images are unwrapped through sharing the same group of misaligned Gray code (MGC) decoding result. Finally, a phase sequences fusion model guided by multi-indicators, including exposure quality, phase gradient smoothness and pixel effectiveness, is established to obtain an optimum phase map for final 3D reconstruction. Comparative experiments indicate that the proposed method can completely restore the 3D topography of HDR surfaces with the images reduction of at least 65% and the measurement integrity is maintained at over 98% while preserving the measurement accuracy and excluding the outliers.

M. V. Berry’s work [J. Phys. A 43,
415302 (2010)1751-811310.1088/1751-8113/43/41/415302] highlighted
the correspondence between backflow in quantum mechanics and
superoscillations in waves. Superoscillations refer to situations
where the local oscillation of a superposition is faster than its
fastest Fourier component. This concept has been used to
experimentally demonstrate backflow in transverse linear momentum for
optical waves. In the present work, we examine the interference of
classical light carrying only negative orbital angular momenta, and in
the dark fringes of such an interference, we observe positive local
orbital angular momentum. This finding has implications for the
studies of light–matter interaction and represents a step towards
observing quantum backflow in two dimensions.
Half-Broadband Two-dimensional Electronic Spectroscopy with Active Noise Reduction
Authors: Meech Stephen , Bressan Giovanni , Heisler Ismael , Greetham Greg , Edmeades Amy
Published: July 2023

Two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES) provides detailed insight into coherent ultrafast molecular dynamics in the condensed phase. Here we report a referenced broadband pump-compressed continuum probe half-broadband 2DES spectrometer in a partially collinear geometry. To optimise signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) we implement active noise reduction referencing. The method is calibrated against the well characterised 2DES response of the oxazine dye cresyl violet and demonstrated at visible wavelengths on the photochromic photoswitch 1,2-Bis(2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (DAE). The SNR is improved by a factor of ~2 through active referencing. We further show that active noise reduction referencing, coupled with the rapid data collection, allows the extraction of weak vibronic features, most notably a low frequency mode in the excited electronic state of DAE.

Published: July 2023

The purpose of this study is to evaluate layer fusion options for deep learning classification of optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) images. A convolutional neural network (CNN) end-to-end classifier was utilized to classify OCTA images from healthy control subjects, diabetic patients with no retinopathy (NoDR), and non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR). For each eye, three en-face OCTA images from the superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP), and choriocapillaris (CC) layers were acquired. The performances of the CNN classifier with individual layer inputs and multi-layer fusion architectures, including early-fusion, intermediate-fusion, and late-fusion, were quantitatively compared. For individual layer inputs, the superficial OCTA was observed to have the best performance, with 87.74% accuracy, 80% sensitivity, and 91.08% specificity, to differentiate control, NoDR, and NPDR. For multi-layer fusion options, the best option is the intermediate-fusion architecture, which achieved 93.18% accuracy, 87.45% sensitivity, and 94.55% specificity. To interpret the deep learning performance, the Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) was utilized to identify spatial characteristics for OCTA classification. Comparative analysis indicates that the layer data fusion options can affect the performance of deep learning classification, and the intermediate-fusion approach is optimal for OCTA classification of DR.
Surface relief grating near-eye display waveguide design
Authors: Ma Donglin , Wang Haodong
Published: July 2023

A near-eye display device (NED) is a visual optical system that places a miniature display in front of the human eye to provide an immersive viewing experience. NEDs have been playing an irreplaceable role in both early military flight applications and today's civil and entertainment applications. In this paper, we propose an easy-to-machine design of a near-eye display based on surface relief grating waveguides, taking into account the experience of previous designs of near-eye displays, the superior performance of the design, and the accuracy level of existing grating processing. The design is designed to meet the requirements of large field of view and large outgoing pupil extension as much as possible. The design is insensitive to the incident angle and achieves a full-field field-of-view angle of 40°, an angular uniformity error of 20% for diffraction efficiency, and an average diffraction efficiency of 80% for the full field of view. Based on the design, the overall simulation of the optical path of the NED device is completed, and the illumination uniformity of the outgoing pupil expansion of the device is analyzed through simulation.
I am a scientist: Overcoming biased assumptions around diversity in science through explicit representation of scientists in lectures
Authors: Henri Dominic Charles , Coates Kirra , Hubbard Katharine
Published: July 2023

The lack of diversity in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) is a significant issue for the sector. Many organisations and educators have identified lack of representation of historically marginalised groups within teaching materials as a potential barrier to students feeling that a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) career is something that they can aspire to. A key barrier to addressing the issue is providing accessible and effective evidence-based approaches for educators to implement. In this study, we explore the potential for adapting presentation slides within lectures to ‘humanise’ the scientists involved, presenting their full names and photographs alongside a Harvard style reference. The intervention stems from an initial assumption that many formal scientific referencing systems are demographic-neutral and exacerbate prevailing perceptions that STEM is not diverse. We adopt a questionnaire based methodology surveying 161 bioscience undergraduates and postgraduates at a UK civic university. We first establish that students project assumptions about the gender, location, and ethnicity of the author of a hypothetical reference, with over 50% of students assuming they are male and Western. We then explore what students think of the humanised slide design, concluding that many students see it as good pedagogical practice with some students positively changing their perceptions about diversity in science. We were unable to compare responses by participant ethnic group, but find preliminary evidence that female and non-binary students are more likely to see this as good pedagogical practice, perhaps reflecting white male fragility in being exposed to initiatives designed to highlight diversity. We conclude that humanised powerpoint slides are a potentially effective tool to highlight diversity of scientists within existing research-led teaching, but highlight that this is only a small intervention that needs to sit alongside more substantive work to address the lack of diversity in STEM.
Infection prevention and control in neonatal units: An ethnographic study of social and clinical interactions among healthcare providers and mothers in Ghana
Authors: Sunkwa-Mills Gifty , Senah Kodjo , Tersbøl Britt Pinkowski
Published: July 2023

Introduction

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are a global health challenge, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Infection prevention and control (IPC) remains an important strategy for preventing HAIs and improving the quality of care in hospital wards. The social environment and interactions in hospital wards are important in the quest to improve IPC. This study explored care practices and the interactions between healthcare providers and mothers in the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) in two Ghanaian hospitals and discusses the relevance for IPC.

Methodology

This study draws on data from an ethnographic study using in-depth interviews, focus group discussions involving 43 healthcare providers and 72 mothers, and participant observations in the wards between September 2017 and June 2019. The qualitative data were analysed thematically using NVivo 12 to facilitate coding.

Findings

Mothers of hospitalized babies faced various challenges in coping with the hospital environment. Mothers received sparse information about their babies’ medical conditions and felt intimidated in the contact with providers. Mothers strategically positioned themselves as learners, guardians, and peers to enable them to navigate the clinical and social environment of the wards. Mothers feared that persistent requests for information might result in their being labelled “difficult mothers” or might impact the care provided to their babies. Healthcare providers also shifted between various positionings as professionals, caregivers, and gatekeepers, with the tendency to exercise power and maintain control over activities on the ward.

Conclusion

The socio-cultural environment of the wards, with the patterns of interaction and power, reduces priority to IPC as a form of care. Effective promotion and maintenance of hygiene practices require cooperation, and that healthcare providers and mothers find common grounds from which to leverage mutual support and respect, and through this enhance care for mothers and babies, and develop stronger motivation for promoting IPC.

Published: July 2023

Due to the increasing population of the world, the presence of harmful compounds, especially phthalate esters (PAEs), are one of the important problems of environmental pollution. These compounds are known as carcinogenic compounds and Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) for humans. In this study, the occurrence of PAEs and the evaluation of its ecological risks were carried out in the Persian Gulf. Water samples were collected from two industrial sites, a rural site and an urban site. Samples were analyzed using magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) technique to measure seven PAEs including Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), Dimethyl phthalate (DMP), di-n-octyl phthalate (DNOP), and Di-iso-butyl phthalate (DIBP). The BBP was not detected in any of the samples. The total concentration of six PAEs (Σ6PAEs) ranged from 7.23 to 23.7 μg/L, with a mean concentration of 13.7μg/L. The potential ecological risk of each target PAEs was evaluated by using the risk quotient (RQ) method in seawater samples, and the relative results declined in the sequence of DEHP >DIBP > DBP > DEP > DMP in examined water samples. DEHP had a high risk to algae, crustaceans and fish at all sites. While DMP and DEP showed lower risk for all mentioned trophic levels. The results of this study will be helpful for the implementation of effective control measures and remedial strategies for PAEs pollution in the Persian Gulf.
What factors determine users’ knowledge payment decisions? A mixed-method study
Authors: Ying Qin , Hoque Md. Mukitul , Lee Sang-Joon
Published: July 2023

Methods for obtaining valuable knowledge from the vast amount of mixed-quality information have become a top priority for knowledge demanders. As an online knowledge-sharing channel, the socialized question and answer (Q&A) platform provides important support services for knowledge payment. Based on the personal psychological dimensions of users and social capital theory, this paper aims to study the behavior mechanisms of knowledge payment users and examine the significant factors affecting user payment. Our research was conducted in two steps: a qualitative study to find these factors and a research model based on a quantitative study for testing the hypothesis. The results show that the three dimensions of individual psychology are not all positively correlated with cognitive and structural capital. Our results fill a gap in the literature on the formation of social capital in the knowledge payment environment by showing how individual psychological dimensions affect cognitive and structural capital differently. Thus, this study offers effective countermeasures for knowledge producers on social Q&A platforms to better amass their social capital. This research also makes practical recommendations for social Q&A platforms to strengthen the knowledge payment model.

Published: July 2023

Background and objectives

Thalassaemia is an inherited life-threatening but preventable haemoglobin disorder. South Asian countries, including Bangladesh, are the hotspots of the world’s thalassaemia belt. Indigenous communities are underprivileged and vulnerable to genetic disorders, including thalassaemia. Understanding the perspectives of thalassaemia of future community leaders (indigenous university students) is critical for developing a tailor-made preventive strategy relevant to their communities. In this study, we aimed to assess the level of knowledge and attitudes towards thalassaemia among indigenous university students and determine their thalassaemia carrier status.

Methods

A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 251 tribal university students using a published questionnaire between May and October 2018. The main survey instrument consisted of 22 anonymous questions. Descriptive and inferential statistical procedures were used for data analysis.

Results

More than half (55%) of the indigenous students had never heard the term ’thalassaemia’. Around half (49%) of the marriages in their communities were consanguineous. The mean knowledge score was abysmal (4.91±2.65 out of a 12-point scale), which was not associated with the consanguinity of their parent but home districts. Multiple linear regression of demographic variables on the total knowledge score revealed that the overall knowledge is significantly associated with their home district (p< 0.05). Participants from science disciplines scored more than 1 point than their counterparts from Arts and Humanities (p = 0.08615).

Conclusions

For the first time, this study has identified knowledge gaps and misperceptions about thalassaemia among university students from indigenous communities in the southeastern region of Bangladesh. This study serves as a baseline for future interventions (premarital and prenatal screening) targeting future community leaders.

Authors: Narrett Jackson A. , Khan Waleed , Funaro Melissa C. , Moeller Jeremy J.
Published: July 2023

Background

Epilepsy is a prevalent disease that requires personalized care to control seizures, reduce side effects, and ameliorate the burden of comorbidities. Smoking is a major cause of preventable death and disease. There is evidence that patients with epilepsy smoke at high rates and that smoking may increase seizure frequency. However, there is a lack systematically synthesized evidence on the interactions between epilepsy and seizures and smoking, tobacco use, vaping, and smoking cessation.

Methods and analysis

This scoping review protocol guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis and the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews will investigate what is known about the interactions between smoking and epilepsy. This review will include the population of persons with all types of epilepsy or seizures and examine an inclusive list of concepts including tobacco use, vaping, nicotine replacement, and smoking cessation. The MEDLINE, Embase, APA Psycinfo, CINAHL, Cochrane, Scopus, and Web of Science databases will be searched. Following systematic screening of records, data will be charted, synthesized, and summarized for presentation and publication.

Ethics and dissemination

No ethical approval is required for this literature-based study. The results of this scoping review will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. This synthesis will be informative to clinicians and direct further research that may improve health outcomes for people with epilepsy.

Registration

This protocol is registered with the Open Science Framework (DOI: https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/D3ZK8).

Published: July 2023

This study investigated the relationship between psychological skills and fitness levels among elite taekwondo athletes. A total of ten Iranian male elite taekwondo athletes (mean age of 20.6±2 years, BMI 18.78±0.62 kg/m2, and fat percentage of 8.87±1.46%) participated in the study. The Sports Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire, Sports Success Scale, Sport Mental Toughness Questionnaire, and Mindfulness Inventory for Sport were used to assess psychological factors. The Wingate test was used to determine anaerobic power, and the Bruce test to determine aerobic fitness. Descriptive statistics and Spearman rank correlation coefficients were utilised to examine any relationships between subscales. Statistically significant correlations were recorded between the evaluation of feelings (EI scale) and VO2peak (ml/kg/min) (r = -0.70, p = 0.0235) and between social skills (EI scale) and relative peak power (W/kg) (r = 0.84, p = 0.0026). Also, between optimism (EI scale) and VO2peak (ml/kg/min) (r = -0.70, p = 0.0252) and between optimism (EI scale) and HR-MAX (r = -0.75, p = 0.0123); and, finally, between control (mental toughness scale) and relative peak power (W/kg) (r = 0.67, p = 0.0360). These findings demonstrate relationships between psychological factors and the advantages of good anaerobic and aerobic capabilities. Finally, the study also demonstrated that elite taekwondo athletes have high mental performance abilities that are interrelated with anaerobic and aerobic performance.

Authors: Anderson Joseph C. , Rex Douglas K. , Mackenzie Todd A. , Hisey William , Robinson Christina M. , Butterly Lynn F.
Published: July 2023

INTRODUCTION:

We used New Hampshire Colonoscopy Registry data to examine the association between postcolonoscopy colorectal cancer (PCCRC) and sessile serrated detection rates (SSLDRs).

METHODS:

We included patients with either a colonoscopy or a CRC diagnosis in the NH State Cancer Registry. PCCRC was any CRC diagnosed ≥ 6 months after index examination.

RESULTS:

Of 26,901 patients, 162 were diagnosed with PCCRC. The hazard ratio for PCCRC was lowest for patients whose endoscopists had the highest SSLDR quintile (≥6%) (hazard ratio 0.29; 95% confidence interval 0.16–0.50).

DISCUSSION:

Endoscopists with higher SSLDRs had lower risks of PCCRC. These data validate SSLDR as a clinically relevant quality measure.

Post-normal crises and technology assessment
Authors: Sinozic-Martinez Tanja , Weinberger Nora , Hahn Julia
Published: July 2023

Reflections on the challenges for science in crises have become an integral part of public policy and technology assessment (TA). The urgency and uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic brought up the question of how scientific disciplines and individual scientists can provide appropriate advice to decision makers and the public while maintaining transparency and independence. Because of the speed with which solutions had to be found, the range of questions narrowed and some topics were given priority over others. In many countries, decisions were made without broader public participation and without involving the wide variety of stakeholders. In the light of the waning COVID-19 pandemic and the surging climate crisis, it is time to consider how TA, its organizations, and networks can reasonably position themselves to achieve their goals under these conditions. This introduction presents the Special topic of this TATuP issue, in which four research articles explore the role of TA in crises from different perspectives.
(Re-)connecting academia during a sudden, global crisis
Authors: Kastenhofer Karen , Friesacher Hannah Rosa , Reich Alexander , Capari Leo
Published: July 2023

Three years ago, the sudden onset of the COVID-19 pandemic challenged academia just like any other societal field, while at the same time putting science center stage. Media attention tended to focus on particular disciplines, such as epidemiology and microbiology, and on individual, mostly local, experts. Based on the idea that science as a global, multidisciplinary community has something to offer society beyond the highly specialized output of individual research fields prepared for local, short-term perspectives, the Institute of Technology Assessment of the Austrian Academy of Sciences launched a spontaneous expert survey in June 2021 with a global and interdisciplinary aspiration, addressing three non-standard issues related to the pandemic and its management: side effects, opportunities, and preparedness. In this paper, we present our methodology and the results of our analysis. We conclude with a discussion of potential contributions of technology assessment in times of sudden, global crises.
Governance between ignorance and evidence: Technology assessment in the context of pandemic crisis management
Authors: Bartl Gabriel
Published: July 2023

This article examines the relationship between knowledge and ignorance in the context of crises and corresponding technological solutions. It focuses on the case of pandemic simulation models as a specific form of dealing with uncertainty, which marks a transition from classical risk management to algorithmically organized anticipation practices. The thesis of the paper is that technology assessment is affected by this development when it comes to reflecting on the normative premises and social and political implications of digital crisis technologies. This refers in particular to what is considered crisis-relevant knowledge in the first place, according to what logics it circulates, and what attributions and effects can be observed with regard to digital crisis technologies. Against this background, the paper discusses the relevance of social science knowledge as well as the role of deliberative practices in times of crisis.

Published: July 2023

El casco fundacional de Usme ha sido un territorio permeado de historia, símbolos, arquitectura y urbanismo; además, tiene un legado indígena importante para la ciudad de Bogotá, y que ha estado en la memoria colectiva de algunos de sus habitantes, pero hoy presenta problemas en términos de la pérdida de identidad, a causa de los cambios morfológicos que, poco a poco, degradan este territorio, por su condición de borde urbano-rural. Este proyecto pretende resignificar la memoria por medio de la krono morphosis urbana, concepto asociado al imaginario colectivo, a través de la revisión de fenómenos históricos, y en el que la morfología y la tipología, la accesibilidad y la apropiación territorial son constantes en el proceso de transformación. Para ello, se aborda tema desde el método inductivo, a partir de cuatro etapas fundamentales que permiten analizar y comprender la ruptura que generan las malas decisiones sobre la planificación de un territorio, así como crear posturas y reflexiones multidisciplinares acerca del problema y sus condiciones.
Czy potrzebna jest nam jeszcze tradycja?
Authors: Chachulski Tomasz
Published: July 2023

Tradycja literacka w szkolnej praktyce jest traktowana coraz bardziej ambiwalentnie. Nie jest jednak wyłącznie tym, co czytelnicy kolejnych pokoleń zastają – jest kształtowana przez nich w procesie nieustannego wyboru i jej deprecjonowanie to także sposób określenia tradycji wybranej przez kolejne pokolenie. W stosunku do literatury epoki baroku – wiedza o niej zmieniła się najbardziej w ciągu ostatniego półwiecza – podstawową barierą wydaje się archaiczny język oraz zakres odwołań do tradycji grecko-rzymskiej. Do jej przekroczenia brakuje jednak odpowiedniej motywacji. Sposobem przełamania dystansu do literatury dawnych wieków jest przede wszystkim przynajmniej częściowa aktualizacja tradycji, utwory obecne w szkole zostały wybrane często już przed stu laty i bywają mało adekwatne do współczesnych problemów. Nie są to to konkretne propozycje zmiany, choć przywołane zostają nazwiska Wacława Potockiego, Jana Andrzeja Morsztyna i innych poetów tego czasu. Szkolne kształcenie literackie daje uczniom możliwość odnalezienia się w rzeczywistości tu i teraz, buduje w nich system oceny i sposoby rozumienia, które pozostaną częścią intelektualnej i estetycznej formacji. absolwenta szkoły średniej.

Celem artykułu jest uzasadnienie roli literatury w kształtowaniu postaw człowieka wobec przyrody w edukacji polonistycznej oraz zilustrowanie tej problematyki reprezentatywnymi interpretacjami utworów poetyckich. Cele te wynikają ze społecznych potrzeb przemian destrukcyjnych zachowań człowieka, a także z systemowej nieobecności tych zadań w polonistyce. Dysponuje ona wyjątkowo czułym narzędziem przewartościowywania postaw ukształtowanych kulturowo, czyli literaturą. W części teoretycznej artykułu omówiono koncepcje biocentryczne. Kwestionują one antropocentryczną pozycję wspólnot ludzkich w biosferze i opierają się na etyce ekologii (ekoetyce), czyli obserwacjach systemowych relacji między nim a środowiskiem. Ekoetyka nie jest synonimem ekologii, neutralnej moralnie dziedziny nauki, badającej powiązania między organizmami a środowiskiem. W części drugiej artykułu pokazane zostały przykłady praktyk interpretacyjnych dzieł literackich zgodnie z regułami wyodrębnianych w badaniach kierunków etyki ekologii (wybranych wierszach np. J. Przybosia, J. Podsiadły, M. Świetlickiego oraz poezji z motywem zadomowienia L.A. Moczulskiego). Ważną rolę pełnią teksty literackie, „odwołujące się” do zapamiętanych doświadczeń sensualnych. Szczególne znaczenie w wywoływaniu doświadczeń wyobrażonych czytelnika przypisuje się przeżyciom piękna. Wpływ estetyczny wzmacnia oddziaływanie etyczne literatury i innych dzieł kultury, w tym potrzebę chronienia przyrody. Interioryzuje ich ekoetyczne sensy i sprawia, że godzenie cywilizacyjnych aspiracji człowieka z przyjaznym współistnieniem w środowisku przyrodniczym nie musi oznaczać dążeń utopijnych.

Published: July 2023

Tutorials werden als ein wesentliches Element der Vermittlungsarbeit betrachtet. Sie haben zum Ziel, die Informationskompetenz der Nutzer*innen zu fördern und sie in die Lage zu versetzen, sich Inhalte anhand hochwertiger audiovisueller Quellen selbstständig anzueignen. Zu diesem Zweck unterstützt das Netzwerk „Tutorials in Bibliotheken“ interessierte Personen und Institutionen dabei, auch mit begrenzten Ressourcen ansprechende Tutorials zu erstellen. Das Konzept der Offenheit kann als roter Faden gesehen werden, der sich durch die verschiedenen Ebenen zieht, die in diesem Artikel beleuchtet werden: die emanzipatorische Rolle von Tutorials an sich, die konkrete Arbeit im Netzwerk sowie organisatorische und technische Aspekte.
Well-Posedness and Convergence Analysis of PML Method for Time-Dependent Acoustic Scattering Problems Over a Locally Rough Surface
Authors: Guo Hongxia , Hu Guanghui
Published: July 2023

We aim to analyze and calculate time-dependent acoustic wave scattering by a bounded obstacle and a locally perturbed non-selfintersecting curve.
The scattering problem is equivalently reformulated as an initial-boundary value problem of the wave equation in a truncated bounded domain through a well-defined transparent boundary condition.
Well-posedness and stability of the reduced problem are established.
Numerically, we adopt the perfect matched layer (PML) scheme for simulating the propagation of perturbed waves.
By designing a special absorbing medium in a semi-circular PML, we show the well-posedness and stability of the truncated initial-boundary value problem.
Finally, we prove that the PML solution converges exponentially to the exact solution in the physical domain.
Numerical results are reported to verify the exponential convergence with respect to absorbing medium parameters and thickness of the PML.

In this study, we investigate the thermal stabilities, thermo-kinetic, and thermodynamic behaviours of Corn Cob (CC), Husk (CH), Leaf (CL), and Stalk (CS) during pyrolysis using the Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) at a single heating rate of 10 °C/min. Thermo-kinetics and thermodynamic parameters were evaluated for two temperature regions, region I (100–350 °C) and region II (350–500 °C) by employing the Coats–Redfern (CR) integral method to fit the TGA data to sixteen kinetic models. Results showed that diffusion models (D1, D1, D3, and D1) best suited the decomposition of CC, CH, CL, and CS in region I with Ea values of 109.90, 186.01, 129.4, and 78.7 kJ/mol respectively. Similarly, D1, third order model (F3), D3, and nucleation model (P4) with Ea values of 68.50 (CC), 177.10 (CH), 62.10 (CL), and 127.70 (CS) kJ/mol respectively best described residues’ decomposition in region II. Furthermore, kinetic parameters were used to compute the thermodynamic parameters; change in enthalpy (∆H), Gibbs free energy (∆G), and change in entropy (∆S) values for both regions. To study the pyrolytic behaviours of the residues, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was employed to develop models to predict weight losses in samples by determining the coefficient of determination (R
2) and minimum Mean Square Error (MSE). Results showed ANN as a very important tool for predicting the pyrolytic behaviours of corn residues and other biomass samples.

Published: July 2023

In this study, a novel “three-layer sandwich” composite loose nanofiltration (NF) membrane structure by mussel bionic technology was constructed on a porous polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) substrate membrane, with a mussel bionic coating as the middle layer and the complex network of polyphenols and metal ions as the top layer. The new composite NF membrane had comprehensive properties such as excellent separation performance, good hydrophilicity and strong antifouling ability. The experimental results showed that the combination of tannic acid (TA) and iron ion (Fe3+) could significantly improve the comprehensive performance of the composite NF membrane, with water flux of more than 3000 L/(m2∙h), and the retention rate of dyes and bovine serum protein (BSA) exceeded 90 %, and contact angle was up to 30°. The combination of TA and copper ion (Cu2+) can greatly enhance the antifouling performance and interception ability of methylene blue. The complexation activity of metal ions and polyphenols was related to the oxidation of metal ions. The PVDF/DA-PEI/TA-M+ composite structure scheme of “three-layer sandwich” NF membrane provides a new idea and future development direction for the development of novel NF membranes with excellent comprehensive performance.
La justicia hídrica en los discursos sobre la asignación del agua para el sector hidroeléctrico en Colombia
Authors: León Montealegre Vanessa Alejandra , Roa-García María Cecilia
Published: July 2023

Este documento analiza los discursos que orbitan alrededor de la asignación del agua para el sector hidroeléctrico en Colombia en el marco de la justicia hídrica. Parte de un análisis crítico de los estudios de impacto ambiental de 22 hidroeléctricas que, por su capacidad de generación de energía, requirieron licencia ambiental de la Autoridad Nacional de Licencias Ambientales (en adelante ANLA), en contraste con la expresión social[1] y los conceptos de justicia hídrica empleados en la academia y en los contextos específicos en cada proyecto. Se caracterizaron los proyectos hidroeléctricos para construir las siguientes categorías de análisis: i) limitaciones al reconocimiento, ii) legitimación y procesos de participación en los proyectos y iii) priorización en la distribución del agua. Como resultado se evidenció que i) no se utilizan criterios de equidad, eficiencia o sostenibilidad en la asignación del agua y ii) el otorgamiento de licencias ambientales para proyectos hidroeléctricos no se realiza bajo principios de justicia hídrica.

La culpa en la responsabilidad civil contractual en Colombia: ¿tripartición o culpa unitaria?
Authors: Ortiz Vesga Adrián Ulises
Published: July 2023

En el presente documento se analiza el elemento culpa en la responsabilidad civil contractual en Colombia, para esto, presenta la dicotomía existente entra la culpa tripartita y la culpa unitaria. Explora los orígenes de la tripartición de la culpa y su incorporación en nuestra normativa, al igual, que indaga sobre su inaplicabilidad en las sentencias judiciales ; para esto, se expone cómo llegó a nuestro ordenamiento jurídico una clasificación de las obligaciones, no consagrada en el Código Civil, y, de vital importancia para el estudio de la culpa contractual y la estructuración de la responsabilidad civil, esto es, las obligaciones de medios y de resultados. Este breve escrito se aparta de la posición mayoritaria y aboga por la tripartición de la culpa como un elemento estructural vigente, necesario y útil en el campo de la responsabilidad civil contractual.

The purpose of this study was to resolve the question of whether various nitrogen sources and concentrations affect characteristics of selected G. lucidum ligninolytic enzymes participating in wheat straw fermentation. This is the first study reporting the presence of versatile peroxidase activity in crude extract of G. lucidum culture, as well as isoforms profile of Mn-oxidizing peroxidases. NH4NO3 was the optimum nitrogen source for laccase and Mn-dependent peroxidase activity, while peptone was the optimum one for versatile peroxidase activity. with laccase activity were obtained by native PAGE and IEF separations from medium enriched with inorganic nitrogen source, and only two bands from medium containing organic source. Medium composition was not shown to affect isoenzyme patterns of Mn-oxidizing peroxidases. Four isoforms of Mn-dependent peroxidase and three of versatile peroxidase were obtained on native PAGE. By IEF separation, five isoforms of Mn-dependent peroxidase and only two of versatile peroxidase were observed. The results demonstrated that G. lucidum has potential for mineralization and transformation of various agricultural residues and should take more significant participation in large-scale biotechnological processes.
