Authors: Kichkin A. , Kichkina E.
Published: January 2021

The article presents a simulation model of a seaport grain terminal, created in the AnyLogic 8.5 PLE environment. The agent paradigm was chosen as the modeling paradigm, which allowed to adequately reproduce the process of interaction of road, rail and industrial transport in the process of grain processing. To this end, the main models-agents have been developed that interact with each other and form the overall technological process of grain processing by the marine terminal. The interaction of the created agents-models makes the logic of interaction of different types of transport and production and storage systems of the grain terminal of the seaport. On the basis of an experimental study of the grain terminal of the seaport in different technological conditions, its adequacy was confirmed taking into account the interaction of different modes of transport: main (sea, rail, road) and industrial transport of the grain terminal. For information support, an information-analytical part was created, the basis of which is a database of a simulation model of a grain terminal of a seaport with the appropriate software. The creation of a database of the grain terminal of the seaport provided the primary information of the simulation model; accumulation of information on the results of simulation experiments; the possibility of analytical study of the results of simulation experiments. The corresponding calculation of economic indicators of functioning of the export grain terminal is made on the basis of the accumulated data of simulation modeling by means of the developed software which has allowed to provide efficiency not only technological, but also economic decisions. The developed simulation model of the grain terminal of the seaport and its information-analytical part is in fact a system of decision support by the relevant services of the terminal in the conditions of variable information from customers, the presence of technological and natural risks.

Published: January 2021

Today, humanity has faced a fundamentally new catastrophe - the Covid-19 pandemic. Quarantine, closing borders, creating numerous problems for almost all states - all these are the realities of today. Experts will still be able to fully assess the scale of the economic shock associated with the epidemic and all its long-term consequences. But it is already clear that the recovery of the global economy is not an easy one. And already tested anti-crisis measures will not always work. It is necessary to look for fundamentally new, non-standard solutions. The aim of the research is to analyze the state of trade against the background of the global world economic situation. Identify the shortcomings of the industry, development prospects and highlight the economic benefits that need to be addressed as a matter of priority in order to improve performance and improve the situation during a pandemic. The article examines the current state of the global economic situation in the maritime transport industry during the Covid-19 pandemic. The international market of maritime trade is based on certain patterns, among which there is a clear focus on the parameters of international economic relations, the constant use of innovative technologies and the cyclical changes in key indicators. The trend of development of the maritime transport industry and its regionalization is due to a complex set of external and internal factors. Therefore, the article considers the relationship and impact of both negative and positive factors on the state of the world economy. The data of the interim economic forecasts for 2019-2022 in the estimated comparison of countries that have a global impact on the economic development of partner countries are studied. The interrelation of economic and maritime industries is analyzed, the state of modern problems of sea transportation is investigated, perspective directions are revealed and the necessity of concrete decisions for large-scale development of competitiveness of the transport industry is emphasized. As a result of the research it is suggested: in order to automate the process of sea transportation to accelerate the introduction of contactless document management, to consolidate the position of maritime logistics, which plays an important organizational and cost-effective role in modern economic relations and trade flows.
BUNKERING IN UKRAINIAN PORTS
Authors: Sudnyk N.
Published: January 2021

The market of bunkering services forms one of the most important segments of world trade in oil products. In fact, the bunker market provides the work of the entire shipping industry, the share of which in world GDP is growing steadily, and by 2018 was estimated at 10 to 20%. Currently, fuel bunkering is a problem for Ukrainian seaports. Over 15 years, the annual volume of bunkering in Ukrainian ports has decreased tenfold. In Ukraine there are necessary coastal bases in Kherson, Nikolaev, other places. Bunker companies can easily find the right number of bunkers on the market for service in our ports. The volume of the world bunker market is characterized by huge and constantly growing needs of the world navy in material and technical supply of fuel of the vessels of the most different function in scales of the World ocean. The determining factor of regional demand for bunkering is the intensity of vessel traffic. Demand volumes depend primarily on the number of calls to local ports, the scale of port activity, tonnage turnover, the geography of sea routes in the region, the proximity of busy shipping routes and the service of transit flows. In addition, the availability of infrastructure (technical, organizational, information) and adjacent sources of competitive fuel supply at the prices of local refineries (refineries), as well as a range of services, quality of service, traditional procurement, customer confidence. The largest bunker centers in terms of bunker fuel sales per year are Singapore, Fujairah, Rotterdam, Hong Kong, Busan, Piraeus, Antwerp, Kaohsiung, Suez Canal, Panama Canal, Houston and Gibraltar. When organizing the flight according to two schemes, two ports for bunkering were considered: Istanbul and the Pivdenny. As a result of calculations in two directions, it can be concluded that Ukrainian ports are attractive for bunkering ships in technological and economic terms. Therefore, when changing the design scheme of the bunker in the ports of Ukraine, you can get some benefits. Both carriers and bunker companies may be interested in this.
INVESTIGATION OF CORROSION WEAR OF SUPPORTING METAL STRUCTURES OF FREIGHT CARS DURING MEASURES TO EXTEND THE TERM OF SERVICE
Authors: Bulich D. , Sapronova S. , Tkachenko V. , Koshel A.
Published: January 2021

All elements of load-bearing metal structures of freight cars are subject to corrosion wear. In this article, a statistical analysis of corrosion wear for each element of load-bearing metal structures. Damage to load-bearing metal structures of gondola cars taking into account corrosion wear is considered. Measures to increase the possible maximum corrosion wear, which can be used to predict the residual life and structural finishing of the elements of load-bearing metal structures. Cracks and fractures that are not detected in time, which turn into through-corrosion during operation, have a great impact on corrosion. To determine the corrosion of the freight car requires an individual approach to each element of the load-bearing structures of the car, taking into account the performance and time of repair.Studies have shown that half of freight cars were operated with corrosion of some elements of load-bearing metal structures more than 30%. This shows the possibility of increasing the tolerance of the threshold of corrosion wear of cars, which will affect the ability to reduce the exclusion of freight cars from the inventory.
Application of Air Cathode Microbial Fuel Cells for Energy Efficient Treatment of Dairy Wastewater
Authors: Lóránt Bálint , Gyalai-Korpos Miklós , Goryanin Igor , Tardy Gábor Márk
Published: January 2021

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) offer a promising new solution for wastewater treatment due to their advantageous characteristics: lower energy demand and less excess sludge compared to the conventional activated sludge wastewater treatment technology. In this study, two systems of single chamber air cathode MFCs with a working volume of 14 L were investigated for the energy efficient treatment of dairy wastewater. Biomass-originated carbon cathode and noble-metal free cathode catalyst were applied to meet the demand for a lower investment cost. Influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) was in the range of 900 to 3830 mg L–1, while hydraulic retention time was ~ 2.4 days. Systems provided 156 mW m–3 and 170 mW m–3 maximum power densities and coulombic efficiencies of 11.5 % and 12.8 % in average. Organic removal efficiency of 71.1 ± 8.0 % was observed when influent COD was between 900 and 1500 mg L–1, however effluent quality and removal efficiency (67.9 ± 12.6 %) deteriorated as influent COD was increased (1500 – 3830 mg L–1). At high influent CODs (over 3000 mg L–1), an organic elimination rate of 0.82 ± 0.11 kg COD m–3 d–1 was calculated, that can be considered as the upper limit of organic removal in the systems. Based on the results, MFCs may offer a potential solution for small-scale dairy factories for the pretreatment of their effluent to meet the criteria for wastewater discharge to sewer systems. The modular MFC design also facilitates to tailor the system to actual capacity requirements.

Mary's progress towards feminine identification in psychoanalytic psychotherapy
Authors: Yang Yunping
Published: January 2021

This article describes the process of analytic treatment of Mary, unfolding through snippets that illustrate her feminine identity, her dreams, conflicts with her husband, and the countertransference of the therapist. Mary grew freer and even eloquent about her feelings (enhancement of verbalisation) and became more self-aware with a growing ability to think of herself and about others (enhancement of metalization). She gained an acceptance of her daughter's affection, of her own self, and a new ability to make judgements and decisions for herself and for her family (an enhancement of autonomy). As Mary became more present in the family and sought a more equal partnership, her marriage also arrived at a major finish line at the same time as did our analytic work.
Mother–child relationships at the Mosuo
Authors: Nadig Maya
Published: January 2021

The author, a psychoanalyst and anthropologist, describes her observations of Mosuo culture in regard to family arrangements and child-rearing. Her psychoanalytically informed fieldwork leads to observations about how a matriarchal culture without formal marriage or fatherhood deals with issues of attachment, sexuality, aggression, and socially flexible yet stable social structure. She concludes with observations on her own experience in a culture quite unlike the European culture in which psychoanalytic ideas have been developed.
Factors that influence fertility intentions of Chinese youth: a discussion of issues raised by Volsche and Jankowiak's "Chinese women's autonomy: parenthood as a choice"
Authors: Rui Song
Published: January 2021

In recent decades, China's childbearing-age young people's fertility intentions and attitudes have changed, influenced by widespread social change and general improvement of women's status. At the same time, research on intentions concerning fertility has been expanding. Volsche and Jankowiak's article, "Chinese women's autonomy: parenthood as a choice" provides a new discussion concerning college students' preferences about intended fertility and contrasts the culture of filial piety culture with new interest in personal choice about fertility. This discussion cites many sources in current research literature to their review through examining changes in the dimensions of changes in Chinese childbearing age, young people's intention concerning fertility, their ideal number of children, gender preference, and ideals about time for first birth and between pregnancies, as well as other related factors influencing their ideas about fertility.
Gender, family, and intergenerational transmission of traumatisation
Authors: Varvin Sverre
Published: January 2021

China is a fast-developing country and at the same time a country where traditions play an important role. The society is also marked by centuries of upheavals that have affected individuals and families. The recent growth has brought millions of people out of poverty and increased possibilities for young people and families, but this development has also brought new tensions and conflicts affecting individuals and families.
Ingrained in Chinese society and culture is a system which specifies implicit rules and patterns of rules, obligations, and responsibilities on social relations between men and women and between generations. Generally, family interests are more important than that of the individuals, and when the two are in conflict with each other, the family interests win.
This article focuses on how the complex sociocultural situation affects individuals and families and how this manifest itself in the clinical situation. The aim is to highlight some aspects of the reality met in clinical encounters in China and to argue for an openness about how context always plays a role both in clinical and theoretical work.
Love, maternal love, romantic love, depressive love: a psychoanalytic perspective
Authors: Hooke Maria Teresa Savio
Published: January 2021

This article presents a history of ideas about the origins of love as a universal human experience, beginning with Freud's formulations and expanding concepts in the light of findings about the role of attachment and love in the earliest relationship between mother and baby. Conceptualisations based on the work of Klein, Winnicott, and Bion are linked to recent findings from neuroscience to arrive at a more complex conceptualisation of the origins and role of love for mothers, fathers, children and adults.

Published: January 2021

In the research project, Children in World War II—"German elderly psychoanalysts remember", psychoanalysts of the German Psychoanalytical Association born between 1930 and 1945 were interviewed on this topic, first with questionnaires and then with interviews. The author takes an approach about how today's psychoanalysts, who grew up during World War II, viewed their experiences, damages, losses, and traumatisation in connection with coming to terms with the collective guilt of the Germans. How were they able to address and work through the childhood experiences and traumas of war in their analyses? The author emphasises how important remembering is for a whole society after genocide, war, and dictatorships that are like that of the Third Reich in Germany.

Authors: Akter F , Haque MA
Published: January 2021

All the food sources comprise edible and non-edible waste portions. With increasing demand for food and feed the current agriculture is focusing on agro-processing to utilize the maximum portion of the plant or animal resources. This review paper aims at summarizing the present status of utilization of jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam, Moraceae) wastes in food, feed, and other industry. Apart from the non-edible portion like peel and axis, the edible by-products like seeds of jackfruit mostly remain underutilized worldwide including Bangladesh. This article has reviewed the works devoted to utilize different waste portions of jackfruit other than the juicy edible bulbs. There are many works which suggested that the thick peel of jackfruit can be utilized in nutrient enriched cattle feeds, extraction of bio-fuel, nano-porous adsorbent for removing dye etc. The peel and central axis of this fruit also had investigated for extraction of pectin. The seeds of jackfruit were attempted by many researches to be used in various bakery products. The starch and protein fractions were isolated from jackfruit seeds flour to make them use at a purified state in the food formulations.

Authors: Debnath Bithi , Islam Sajani , Haque Nazmul
Published: January 2021

Background: Bronchiolitis is the most common reason for hospitalization among children younger than 2 years.

Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the possibility that the associated risk factors in children suffering from bronchiolitis could predict the length of hospital stay and also to observe the immediate outcome.

Methodology: This prospective study was conducted in a district hospital of Bangladesh in a period of two years from January 2011 to December 2012. Patients aged 2 years or less fulfilling inclusion criteria for bronchiolitis and required admission were enrolled in this study. Patients having comorbidities and who were discharged before fulfilling the study criteria for discharge were excluded from the study. Treatment was given according to National Guidelines for the Management of Bronchiolitis. All demographic, clinical and laboratory data were recorded in a prefixed questionnaire and analyzed.

Results: Among 100 patients, 60% cases were hospitalized for 4 days or more. Mean duration of hospital stay was 4.37±1.93 days. Patients of male sex (67%), younger than 6 months of age (71%), preterm birth (21%), weight-for-age was either ≥2SD (60%) or ≤3SD (23%) were hospitalized for longer duration. Length of hospitalization was also increased in patients with family history of asthma (37%), smoking (75%), using wood-burning stoves for cooking (89%) and no previous history of respiratory distress (81%). Exclusively breastfed infants (41%) stayed hospital for shorter duration than those who fed partially (53%) or not at all (6%). All patients were improved in this case series (100%).

Conclusion: Bronchiolitis patients having male sex, age less than 6 months, preterm born, partially breast fed , family history of asthma, exposure to smoking and wood-burning stoves were deduced to be significant risk factors for prolongation of length of hospitalization. Further research is needed to determine how these risk factors contribute to the development of the disease and prolong the length of hospital stay.

Fever, skin rash, thrombocytopenia and bleeding are common manifestation of dengue fever (DF). Thrombocytopenia usually gets better and platelet count normalizes by day 10 of fever. Chronic thrombocytopenia is not a feature of dengue fever. Proposed mechanisms behind thrombocytopenia are many. Direct platelet destruction by dengue virus, immune-mediated platelet destruction and evenmegakaryocytic immune injury are proposed as underlying mechanisms. We are reporting a case of a 43 year old female who presented in dengue season in 2019 with fever and bleeding and wasdiagnosed as a case of dengue haemorrhagic fever. She had persistent thrombocytopenia which neededto be treated on the lines of immune thrombocytopenia and responded to steroids. Other causes of thrombocytopenia were ruled out.

Yatırımcıların bilgiye aynı biçimde ulaştığı varsayımına dayanan Etkin Piyasa Hipotezi’ne göre yatırımda bulunanların diğer yatırımcılara nazaran yüksek oranda getiri elde etmesi mümkün olmamaktadır. Buna karşın yatırımcılar çeşitli yöntemler kullanarak getiri düzeylerini artırmak istemektedir. Bu yöntemlerden bazıları ise yoğun istatistiksel bilgi gerektirmekte ve yatırımda bulunanların tamamının yeterli finansal bilgiye sahip olmadığı düşünülmektedir. Bu sebeple riskten kaçan ve pasif yatırım yaklaşımı ile hareket eden yatırımcılar için endeks içerikli fonlar uygun olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, endeks içerikli fon yatırımcılarının sahip oldukları menkul kıymetleri uzun vadede ellerinde tutmaları ile mi yoksa belirli dönemlerde alış satış yaparak mı daha yüksek portföy getirisi sağlayabileceklerinin araştırılması amaçlanmaktadır. Literatürde bu konuda yapılan çalışmaların oldukça az olduğu görülmektedir. Buradan yola çıkarak endeks içerikli fonlara yatırım yapacak yatırımcılar için çeşitli yatırım stratejileri oluşturulmuştur. Bu stratejiler, BİST 30 endeksinde yer alan işletmelerin 2019 yılı içerisindeki gün sonu fiyat hareketlilikleri verilerinin simule edilmesi ile değerlendirilmiştir. İlgili dönemde yapılan analiz ile her ay başı hisse senedi alıp her ay sonunda hisse senedini satmak suretiyle elde edilecek portföy getirisinin, oluşturulan portföyde yer alan hisse senetlerinin yılın ilk günü satın alınıp yılın son gününde satılması ile elde edilecek portföy getirisine oranla daha düşük düzeyde getiri sağlandığı bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır.

Published: January 2021

Vulnerability is the most important concept in analysis of communication networks to disruption. Any network can be modelled by graphs so measures defined on graphs gives an idea in design. Integrity is one of the well-known vulnerability measures interested in remaining structure of a graph after any failure. Domination is also an another popular concept in network design. Nowadays new vulnerability measures take a great role in any failure not only on nodes also on links which have special properties. A new measure domination edge integrity of a connected and undirected graph was defined such as 𝐷𝐼′(𝐺)=𝑚𝑖𝑛{ |𝑆|+𝑚(𝐺−𝑆):𝑆 ⊆ 𝐸(𝐺)} where 𝑚(𝐺−𝑆) is the order of a maximum component of 𝐺−𝑆 and 𝑆 is an edge dominating set. In this paper some results concerning this parameter on corona products of graph structures 𝐶𝑛⊙𝐶𝑚, 𝐶𝑛⊙𝑃𝑚, 𝐶𝑛⊙𝐾1,𝑚 are presented.

Published: January 2021

Background/Aims: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a progressive form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) characterized by hepatic steatosis, inflammation, hepatocellular injury, and fibrosis. We aimed to investigate the usefulness of a key biomarker, lipocalin-2 (LCN2), for the detection of NASH progression.Methods: A mouse NASH model was established using a high-fat diet and a high-sugar drinking water. Gene expression profile of the NASH model was analyzed using RNA sequencing. Moreover, 360 NAFLD patients (steatosis, 83; NASH, 277), 40 healthy individuals, and 87 patients with alcoholic fatty liver disease were recruited.Results: Inflammatory infiltration, focal necrosis in the leaflets, steatosis, and fibrosis were documented in the mouse liver. In total, 504 genes were differentially expressed in the livers of NASH mice, and showed significant functional enrichment in the inflammation-related category. Upregulated liver LCN2 was found to be significantly interactive with various interleukins and toll-like receptors. Serum LCN2 levels were significantly increased in NAFLD patients. Serum LCN2 levels were correlated with steatosis, intralobular inflammation, semiquantitative fibrosis score, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score. The area under the curve of serum LCN2 was 0.987 with a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 93.5% for NASH diagnosis, and 0.977 with almost the same specificity and sensitivity for steatosis.Conclusions: LCN2 might be involved in the transition from NAFL to NASH by mediating inflammation. Serum LCN2 levels might be a novel biomarker for the diagnosis of NASH.

INTRODUCTION: In-flight medical emergencies (IFMEs) average 1 of every 604 flights and are expected to increase as the population ages and air travel increases. Flight diversions, or the rerouting of a flight to an alternate destination, occur in 2 to 13% of IFME cases, but may
or may not be necessary as determined after the fact. Estimating the effect of IFME diversions compared to nonmedical diversions can be expected to improve our understanding of their impact and allow for more appropriate decision making during IFMEs.METHODS: The current study matched
multiple disparate datasets, including medical data, flight plan and track data, passenger statistics, and financial data. Chi-squared analysis and independent samples t-tests compared diversion delays and costs metrics between flights diverted for medical vs. nonmedical reasons. Data
were restricted to domestic flights between 1/1/2018 and 6/30/2019.RESULTS: Over 70% of diverted flights recover (continue on to their intended destination after diverting); however, flights diverted due to IFMEs recover more often and more quickly than do flights diverted for nonmedical
reasons. IFME diversions introduce less delay overall and cost less in terms of direct operating costs and passenger value of time (averaging around 38,000) than do flights diverted for nonmedical reasons.DISCUSSION: Flights diverted due to IFMEs appear to have less impact overall
than do flights diverted for nonmedical reasons. However, the lack of information related to costs for nonrecovered flights and the decision factors involved during nonmedical diversions hinders our ability to offer further insights.Lewis BA, Gawron VJ, Esmaeilzadeh E, Mayer RH, Moreno-Hines

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana Gaertn L.) is an important grain crop for small farmers in many countries. Reliable estimates of crop parameters, such as crop growth and nitrogen (N) content, through remote sensing techniques can improve in-season management of finger millet. This study investigated the relationships of hyperspectral reflectance with canopy height, green canopy cover, leaf area index (LAI), and N concentrations of finger millet using an optimal waveband selection procedure with partial least square regression (PLSR). Predictive performance of 13 vegetation indices (VIs) computed from the original hyperspectral data as well as synthesized Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 data were evaluated and compared for estimating various crop parameters with simple linear regression (SLR) and multilinear regression (MLR) models. The optimal wavebands determined by PLSR were mostly concentrated within 1,000–1,100 nm for both LAI and dry biomass but were scattered for other canopy parameters. The SLR statistics resulted in the simple ratio pigment index (SRPI) and red/green index (RGI) performing best when predicting LAI (R2v = 0.53–0.59) and canopy cover (R2v = 0.72–0.76). The blue/green index (BGI1) was strongly related to canopy height (R2v = 0.65–0.78), dry biomass (R2v = 0.42–0.49), and N concentration (R2v = 0.70–0.83) of finger millet, regardless of spectral resolutions. The MLR approach, using four maximum VIs as input variables, improved the prediction accuracy of N concentration by 14% compared to both SLR and waveband selection methods. VIs computed from synthesized Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 satellite data resulted in similar or greater prediction accuracy than hyperspectral data for various canopy parameters of finger millet, indicating publicly accessible multispectral data could serve as alternative to hyperspectral data for improved crop management decisions via precision agriculture.

Since their inception, optical tweezers have proven to be a useful tool for improving human understanding of the microscopic world with wide-ranging applications across science. In recent years, they have found many particularly appealing applications in the field of biomedical engineering which harnesses the knowledge and skills in engineering to tackle problems in biology and medicine. Notably, metallic nanostructures like gold nanoparticles have proven to be an excellent tool for OT-based micromanipulation due to their large polarizability and relatively low cytotoxicity. In this article, we review the progress made in the application of optically trapped gold nanomaterials to problems in bioengineering. After an introduction to the basic methods of optical trapping, we give an overview of potential applications to bioengineering specifically: nano/biomaterials, microfluidics, drug delivery, biosensing, biophotonics and imaging, and mechanobiology/single-molecule biophysics. We highlight the recent research progress, discuss challenges, and provide possible future directions in this field.

Rice straw has an enormous amount of biomass for energy use, but the complexity of the cell wall component hinders technical processes. Although belonging to rice straws, the straws from different varieties should be with different treatment strategies to obtain best energy efficiency. To confirm this hypothesis, 7 different rice varieties (RPY GENG, RIL269, RIL272, RIL31, RIL57, RIL06, LUOHUI 9) with different cell wall traits from RIL population were evaluated for their response toward different pretreatments. For japonica RPY GENG, 2% of H2SO4 acid was best pre-treatment while high acid (5% of H2SO4) pretreatment caused undue loss. For Indica LUOHUI 9 rice, high acid pretreatment was suitable, while RIL57 had maximum of glucose yield with high alkali (10% NaOH) pretreatment. High-concentration alkali pretreatment is the most convenient and effective pretreatment method for the treatment of unknown varieties of rice straws, because the lignin has been removed and has the lowest negative effects on the glucose yield under the high alkali condition. As the RILs used in this study vary considerably in their wall structure, an understanding of their response to different pre-treatments confirms our hypothesis and help us to understand the influence of different wall compositions on the final output.
