Influence of ore draw mode on freezing losses during underground mining of permafrost deposits
Authors: Zubkov V.P. , Petrov D.N.
Published: May 2022

In the underground mining of mineral deposits in the permafrost zone, the freezing of broken ore in the working excavation is one of the key factors that have a significant negative impact on its efficiency. During the ore drawing from the block in conditions of negative temperatures, the determining factor influencing the freezing of the ore is the change in the moisture content of the ore mass, even within insignificant limits, and the time it is in a stationary state. The article presents the results of an experimental study of the influence of the modes of area ore drawing on the loss of ore mass from freezing under conditions of negative temperatures in the working excavation. Physical modeling of the area ore drawing was carried out taking into account the mining and geological, mining technical and thermomechanical conditions of the underground mining of one of the ore deposits of Yakutia. The experiments were carried out with uniformly sequential, layered and chaotic ore drawing modes and various degrees of ore mass moisture content in a cryochamber at the air temperature of minus 5°С, using a specially made test bench. It was found that at the natural negative temperature of mine air and the temperature of the broken ore of minus 5°C, an increase in its moisture content by 1% leads to an increase in freezing losses in layered mode by 22%, and with the uniformly sequential and chaotic ore drawing modes by 29–30%. The established dependencies are valid only for specific thermal and humidity conditions of the experiment, however, they allow a qualitative assessment of the effect of the ore drawing mode on the loss of broken ore from freezing in underground conditions at negative temperatures of the mine air and adjacent strata.
Experience of using hydraulic excavators in difficult mining, geological and climatic conditions

Published: May 2022

The article summarizes the experience of using hydraulic excavators in coal, diamondiferous and other mining operations. It is noted that the excavation capacity of modern hydraulic excavators is several times higher than that of the mechanical shovels, and the hydraulic equipment is more suitable for non-explosive excavation in hard grounds, including halfrock formations. It is shown that even in difficult mining, geological and climatic conditions in coal, diamondiferous and other mines, the use of hydraulic excavators in Russian mining companies is justified by high efficiency and high availability ratio equal to the international indicators, which are not lower than those achieved in much more favorable conditions. Research performed in industrial settings made it possible to determine the hydraulic drive's service mode and regulations, as well as rational operating conditions. Operating systems were developed with heated working fluids to compensate for the changing viscosity at low atmospheric temperatures. Based on the tests performed in Russia and abroad, blast-free excavation using hydraulic excavators is done with limited capacity (up to 400 m3/h), and the operating weight of the machines must be not less than 300 tons. The main factors, typical for operation of the open-pit hydraulic excavators include the high annual production time, high forces and dynamics (up to 70 kN per 1 m3 of the bucket capacity) in the digging mode of the unit working at the face, high specific capacity and remoteness from the outside infrastructure used for repairs of the hydraulic components. In the course of testing the hydraulic excavators, the boundary values of the face slope angle depending on the ambient temperature were established. It was experimentally proved that at top to bottom layer-by-layer excavation with the H-285S hydraulic shovel the face height can reach up to 25 m at the rated digging height of 16 m. The average lump size (not more than 300 mm) of the rock mass in a 19 m3 bucket was determined with the permissible oversize in the face up to 2,500 mm. With the normal maintenance quality, the weighted average cost of operation for electromechanical excavators and the corresponding figures for hydraulic excavators are at a comparable level.
Ecology, Population Density, and Translocation of the Snake-Eyed Skink (Ablepharus kitaibelii) in Westernmost Populations

Published: May 2022

Westernmost population of the Snake-eyed Skink is found in Papuk, Croatia, and is the closest to the population from Ilok, Croatia. So far, the ecology of any of them has not been studied, and here, we document the variation between them. Furthermore, we estimated population density in Papuk using line transects, and quantitatively assessed its viability, i.e., chances for its survival under different scenarios; under current situation, with increased habitat, and with the negative effect of catastrophic events (e.g., forest fires, habitat degradation). Our study suggests that the climate between the two populations differs significantly, while other general requirements of the species remain the same in both locations. In the Papuk area we estimated the total population size from 5036 to 5483 individuals, with a relative density of 97 individuals per hectare. The population viability results suggest that the extinction of the Papuk population is likely to happen due to the negative trend in the number of individuals over 100 years. This implies that the population is not stable and under current condition shows the need for urgent conservation measures. We modeled two measures, 1) restoration of habitat via the removal of black pine plantations, and 2) translocation of the Snake-eyed Skink into two new habitats. Both methods rely on the increase of available habitat, and both were implemented in the study area. In 2014 an area of 900 m2 of black pine forest was removed, and in 2014 and 2016 we translocated 100 individuals per year (altogether 200 individuals) into new habitats. Monitoring data confirmed that the newly established subpopulations are present at both sites, and are reproducing, which could imply that our translocation might be successful.
Awakening of self-existence in the Covid-19 pandemic through "Sesaji Nusantara" as Rajut Kejut Craftivism
Authors: Wulandari Sari , - Guntur , Marianto M. Dwi
Published: May 2022

The Covid-19 pandemic has forced people to minimize their activities and choose essential things to do. Apart from maintaining personal and environmental hygiene, mental health is the priority. The RajutKejut Community is a group of female crocheters who yarn bombs with crochet works. RajutKejut received an invitation from the Jakarta Biennale 2021 to exhibit their work in a public space. Their work “Sesaji Nusantara”, presented a crochet installation in the form of flowers and crops arrangements, as an offering to God. Through crocheting in a quarantine atmosphere, a space for reflection and contemplation is formed. This is essential to consider that besides preserving quality intake, the body's immunity can also be increased by maintaining mental health and happiness. As a research question, how RajutKejut community through activity body by making communal crafts can create an understanding of themselves and their environment, which is an understanding that leads to the formation of mental health amid the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses the phenomenological perception by Maurice Merleau-Ponty as an analysis method which is bodily experiences could help people to comprehend their world, particularly in the current pandemic situation. At the end of the discussion, this research shows that the pandemic conditions encourage people to look back at the past, realize their existence in present, and project themselves to plan their next steps. This can be realized by carrying out bodily activities consciously, which brings humans back to retrace their existence in the world as humans who have bodies that can 'make' to fulfill their needs, using their bodies, therefore that awareness of self and self-existence is awakened.

A single nucleotide variant on chromosome 16 residing within GSE1 distinguishes patients with luminal A breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: May 2022

Molecular subtypes including the most common subtype luminal A drive patient outcomes in human breast cancer but the biological basis for this is not completely understood (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover in an unbiased fashion the most distinguishing genetic and transcriptional features of tumors of each breast cancer molecular subtype. We identified a single nucleotide polymorphism, rs998624, residing within GSE1, as among the most significant genetic differences in the tumors of patients with luminal A breast cancer. In a separate cohort of patients with luminal A subtype breast cancer, we observed transcriptome-wide differential expression of a GSE1 transcript. Analysis of patient survival data revealed that GSE1 primary tumor expression was correlated with overall survival in patients with basal-like breast cancer. Sequence variation in the GSE1 gene may be important in understanding differences in genetic background that favor development of luminal A subtype human breast cancer.
FORGOTTEN MEMORIES: RE-CONSTRUCTING THE VIETNAM WAR IN FILMS
Authors: Mai Nhat Chi
Published: May 2022

As many scholars have written about the Vietnam War, this thesis, Forgotten Memories: Re-Constructing the Vietnam War in Films, explores a different approach to this topic by examining films. Historical films are becoming increasingly important in shaping the way the past is understood and remembered. After the war ended, many Hollywood films have continued to capture the atrocities of the war that affected the war narrative of the Vietnam War. American politics and the public suffered from the Vietnam Syndrome, and they lost confidence in the military and government structures. These emotions are translated into Hollywood films about the Vietnam War. The victory of the Gulf War in 1991 finally helped them to get out of the shadow of that psychological fear in foreign intervention. The Vietnam War films have made its comeback after the September 11th attacks. Many scholars have compared the war against terrorism is similar to the war against communism in the 1950s. Over the years, Hollywood has produced many films that are either directly about or set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War. The different representations of the Vietnam War presenting in both American and Vietnamese films produced between 1979 and 2005 explain how the film war narrative reconstruct the memory of history. By examining both American and Vietnamese films about the Vietnam War, this study calls attention to the importance of the Vietnamese experience in our understanding of the Vietnam War and brings an international perspective to the study of this subject in cultural and film studies. By identifying trends and discussing similarities and differences in film-narrative tropes across both American and Vietnamese films about the Vietnam War, this research argues that the film industry has shaped the collective memory of the Vietnam War.

Determinants of successful adoption of the Balanced Scorecard in Vietnamese small and medium-sized enterprises
Authors: Mai Nhat Chi
Published: May 2022

Vietnam is well known as a country in successful transition to a market economy with a high concentration of Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs). SMEs contributed significantly to overcoming the “shocks” associated with the transition from a centrally planned to a market-oriented economy with the collapse of the socialist bloc in Eastern Europe. Although they are major contributors to Vietnamese socio-economic success, SMEs in Vietnam have to deal with many difficulties in their survival and development. To solve these problems, SMEs need to understand how their business is operating, identify where improvements should be made, and have a clear strategic planning process. Applying a performance measurement system provides SMEs with a more complete view of an organization through the different measures and perspectives that link together and enable the development of a dynamic system that monitors both internal and external contexts and supports the organization’s objectives. The Balanced Scorecard introduced by Kaplan and Norton in 1992 is a relevant tool that provides SMEs with a framework for dealing with today’s business environment. There have been extensive calls for research into the use of the Balanced Scorecard by SMEs in different national contexts.

The effect of agricultural commercialization on food security
Authors: Mai Nhat Chi
Published: May 2022

There has been relatively little research that assesses the direct impact of commercialization on food security in the past couple of decades. Yet, agricultural commercialization remains widely pursued in development projects. This is especially the case in developing countries which turn from a central planned economy towards a more market-based economy such as Vietnam in the 1990s and Myanmar nowadays. In the 1980s Vietnam witnessed rapid declines in poverty and malnutrition shortly after implementing major economic reforms. These reforms were targeted at smallholders to increase their income and to reduce poverty through agricultural commercialization. In this thesis I examine the effect of agricultural commercialization on the food security status of crop producing households in Vietnam between 1993 and 1998. I distinguish between indicators of commercialization of input markets (seeds, fertilizer, etc.) and of commercialization of output markets (crops), as I expect that these have distinct impacts. Using the panel data from the Vietnam Living Standards Survey (VLSS) for 1992-1993 and 1997-1998, I conducted pooled OLS, fixed effects (FE), and random effects (RE) analyses. With Instrumental Variables (IV) techniques, I controlled for endogeneity for the OLS and FE models. The results show that the effect of commercialization on food security strongly depends upon the choice of the commercialization indicator and the region or province in Vietnam. In general, I found significant positive effects of the cash crop production share and crop output market participation on food variety in the south of Vietnam, and a significant negative effect of crop output market participation on caloric intake.

A single nucleotide variant on chromosome 16 residing within PKD1L3 distinguishes patients with luminal A breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: May 2022

Molecular subtypes including the most common subtype luminal A drive patient outcomes in human breast cancer but the biological basis for this is not completely understood (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover in an unbiased fashion the most distinguishing genetic and transcriptional features of tumors of each breast cancer molecular subtype. We identified a single nucleotide polymorphism, rs7205297, residing within PKD1L3, as among the most significant genetic differences in the tumors of patients with luminal A breast cancer. In a separate cohort of patients with luminal A subtype breast cancer, we failed to observe differential mRNA expression of a PKD1L3 transcript. Sequence variation in the PKD1L3 gene may be important in understanding differences in genetic background that favor development of luminal A subtype human breast cancer.
Designing and Implementing a Lightboard Learning Experience for Instructors Through the Learning Engineering Process
Authors: Totino Lauren , Kessler Aaron M
Published: May 2022

The Residential Education team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) followed the learning engineering process to design and implement a learning experience for instructors that prepares them to create videos for students using the Lightboard lecture capture system. The content of the online module was designed to emphasize evidence-based instructional practices, primarily through video examples of instructors experienced in using Lightboard demonstrating these best practices. A critical component of the learning engineering process is iteration, and the team navigated two major iterations to the implementation of the learning experience. This paper details each iteration highlighting the specific design decisions and design justifications, and forwards the practice of tracking such work throughout the implementation. Design decision and justification tracking is a practice that can help a team ensure an implementation remains learner-centered and backed by evidence from the learning sciences, while taking into account other factors in the implementation context such as constraints of the technology, timeline, and institutional resources. The paper concludes by underscoring the practical implications of tracking design decisions and justifications for a team following the learning engineering process to implement effective instructor learning experiences.
The Occasional Democratisation of Leadership Selection in Germany
Authors: Küppers Anne
Published: May 2022

Membership ballots have gained increasing popularity for party leadership selection around the globe. Still, our understanding of why parties use primaries is limited. This is due to two shortcomings of quantitative studies: First, previous research failed to operationalise subjective concepts like electoral defeat satisfactory. Second, quantitative studies cannot account for causal complexity. Thus, to uncover the puzzle of why parties use primaries, this article pursues a novel approach that goes beyond the limits of existing quantitative studies. I offer new insights by using theory-testing process-tracing to uncover the complex causal mechanisms that explain the use of membership ballots taking Germany as an example. In the four cases studied, I find that it is a combination of an electoral shock, internal conflict and instrumental motives that explain the decision to hold a primary for party leadership selection.
NURTURING PARTICIPATION OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES IN THE MULTILATERAL APPROACH TO THE NUCLEAR FUEL CYCLE A CASE STUDY: MALAYSIA
Authors: Mai Nhat Chi
Published: May 2022

The Malaysian government has recently decided to consider nuclear energy as an option for electricity generation post-2030. In this light, Malaysia needs to develop a National Nuclear Fuel Cycle Policy to ensure the sustainability of its nuclear power programme. Due to the nature of dual use nuclear technology, this policy debate touches a very sensitive political topic in the context of the ongoing ‘war on terror’. To prevent newcomer states from misusing sensitive technology facilities such as the enrichment and reprocessing of nuclear materials, the international system employs multilateral nuclear arrangements (MNA).

Published: May 2022

There appear to be three independent systems for allocating attention: space-based, feature based, and object-based. Here, we review the literature of object-based attention to determine its underlying mechanisms. First, findings from unconscious priming and cuing suggest that the pre-attentive targets of object-based attention can be fully developed object representations. Next, the control of object-based attention appears to come from ventral visual areas specialized in object analysis that project downward to early visual areas. Whether feedback from object areas can accurately target the object’s specific locations and features is controversial, but recent work in autoencoding has made this plausible. Finally, we suggest that the three classic modes of attention may not be as independent as is commonly considered, and instead could rely on object-based attention for all three modes of selection. Specifically, studies show that attention can spread over the separated members of a group – without affecting the space between them — matching the defining property of feature-based attention. At the same time, object-based attention directed to a single small item has the properties of space-based attention. Nevertheless, the evidence for a parallel, space-based selection controlled through saccade centers is also convincing. We outline the architecture for this combined system and discuss how it works in parallel with other attention pathways.

In recent years, the involuntary celibates who identify as “Incels” have received considerable public attention because of their misogynistic online discourse and their tie to a string of violent acts against women. Yet, surprisingly no prior quantitative research has examined whether unwanted celibacy – a subjective psychological experience characteristic of, but not exclusive, to Incels – is associated with misogynistic attitudes among men. The current study (N = 349 men) collected self-report data from a convenience sample of mixed Incel and non-Incel men to investigate whether the degree of unwanted celibacy is associated with misogynistic attitudes. Unwanted celibacy was positively associated with hostile attitudes towards women, sexual objectification and rape myths, even after controlling for personality traits such as agreeableness. These novel quantitative results indicate that unwanted celibacy is an important psychological risk factor for misogynistic attitudes.
Rely on Your Spouse or Your Kid(s)?: Marital Status, Parental Status, and Unmet Care Needs of Older Adults with and without Dementia
Authors: Zhang Yan , Lin Zhiyong
Published: May 2022

Objectives: This study aims to provide one of the first population-based studies to examine the association between family formations (i.e., parental and marital status) and unmet care needs in the United States. Variations by dementia status were also explored. Methods: Data came from the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS, 2011-2018). The study sample consisted of 7,778 Medicare beneficiaries who needed assistance with daily activities. Family formations were measured by older adults' marital status and parental status (i.e., number of children, children's gender, and step parenthood). Mixed-effects logistic regression models were estimated to predict the odds of experiencing unmet care needs. Results: For older adults without dementia, those who were divorced and had more than four children were more likely to have unmet care needs. Among older adults with dementia, marital status was not significantly associated with unmet care needs, while parents with 2-3 children still showed higher odds of unmet care needs. Regardless of dementia status, having both sons and daughters and the presence of stepchildren were associated with a higher risk of unmet care needs.Discussion: Older adults’ family formations matter to their unmet care needs. Future research should explore the mechanisms linking these two. A focus on improving the quality of long-term services and support for vulnerable older adults with respect to their family relationships is needed.
Democracy in the post-USSR countries and the Baltic Way: Do nation-states play a role in democratization?
Authors: Tufur Deniz
Published: May 2022

In this paper, the curiosity of the democratization process in the post-USSR countries will be discussed with a particular focus on Baltic Countries and Russia. In the literature, various hypothesizes were constructed to explain the inability of post-USSR countries to democratize. However, although these theories hold significant ground, none of them statistically tests the effect of establishing a nation-state prior to the USSR on the democratization trajectory post-USSR. Therefore, in addition to factors identified in the literature, I argue that establishing a nation-state before the invasion of the USSR also enabled the democratization process in Baltic Countries. That is because ceteris paribus, the countries that undergo the nation-building process under USSR are more prone to be polarized democratically; meanwhile, the countries that already established their nation-hood before the USSR are not. I argue that this polarization acted as an autocratic dynamic, preventing the democratization of the post-USSR countries a. Furthermore, I argue that they were less polarized regarding the regime’s choice because national identity played a role in compressing communist ideals. I test these claims quantitatively while controlling for other significant factors specified in the literature. The article concludes that having established a nation-state prior to USSR affected the democratization process significantly positively after the dissolution of USSR

Pterocarpus marsupium Linn. (Family: Fabaceae) commonly known Asana or Vijoysara is an important medicinal plant, widely distributed throughout India. Heartwood of the plant is traditionally used for various diseases like diabetes, angina, cancer, cardiotonic, brain tonic etc. Many researchers were isolated several active principle like flavonoids, terpenoids and reported its pharmacological activity. The count of this tree species is declining in the wild and therefore it has been placed in the red data book. It is exploited mainly for its medicinal heart wood. Hence use of leaf in place of heart wood would be beneficial for surviving of the plant. On this background the present study was undertaken to compare the phytochemical aspects of leaf and heart wood of Pterocarpus marsupium Linn. Alcohol extract of both leaf and heart wood of the plant were analyzed through HPTLC. Study resulted out that leaf sample showed more or equal spot on HPTLC finger printing. That indicates that leaf may having similar active potency like heart wood. That may provide the base for further study to use the leaf as a substitute of heart wood P. marsupium.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of a resorbable membrane with a bone graft substitute in the management of a circumferential infrabony defect in a maxillary left first premolar in a patient diagnosed with localised aggressive peri-odontitis. Methodology: A circumferential defect of 5 mm around the maxillary premolar was evident after debridement. The defect was filled up with a bone graft substitute and covered with a resorbable GTR membrane. Results: The site showed significant bony fill at the end of 9 months with reduction in probing depth to normal. The results were well maintained at the time of last follow- up at 12 months post-operatively. Conclusion: In this case of a circumferential defect associated with localised aggressive periodontitis, excellent results in terms of probing depth reduction and bone fill were obtained. The results were stable till the last followup at 12 months.

Patients presenting to the Emergency Room with chest pain pose a diagnostic challenge because of a possible acute coronary syndrome. This study was done to determine the diagnostic utility of a simple slide test for red cell aggregability in patients with chest pain and as a prognostic indicator in unstable angina. 32 patients of Unstable Angina and 32 persons with non-cardiac chest pain were included in the study. A simple slide was prepared with the peripheral blood of the subjects and stained and assessed by a pathologist and by digital photographs and grid analysis to grade red cell aggregabilty. 19 patients with Unstable Angina had Grade C or D red cell aggregation while only 2 persons with noncardiac chest pain had Grade C aggregation. Estimation of Erythrocyte Percentage from the grid images and calculation of Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve gave a best cutoff value of 60-70 with a lower EP signifying unstable angina. 8 patients with Unstable Angina and an EP <50 developed acute MI or recurrent angina. To conclude, a simple slide test of the peripheral blood helps in the initial evaluation of chest pain patients for possible unstable angina, and, further has prognostic utility in patients with unstable angina.
