Published: March 2023

The purpose of our collaborative research is to explore the qualifications necessary in a teacher’s toolbox to effectively support the needs of students with disabilities. Students with physical, intellectual, behavioural and/or developmental disabilities that impede their ability to continuously and effectively be integrated into a traditional classroom setting will require supports from specialised teachers and outside resources (Ontario Human Rights Commission, 2018). Findings suggest that in addition to specific training and qualifications, special education teachers should collaborate with parents and guardians on a classroom level, employ technological resources to enhance the learning experience of those students with disabilities, and differentiate what additional knowledge is required beyond general certifications. Further research on this topic could explore specific ways educators can consider cultural or racial conceptions of disabilities while still fostering family involvement, technology and apps tailored specifically towards students with disabilities, and implementing these suggestions in the real-world then reporting on the results.
Revelations: Theatre That Celebrates the End of the World
Authors: Dorey Charlotte
Published: March 2023

This poster will focus on the participatory play Revelations by Toronto-based theatre creators Anahita Dehbonehie, Griffin McInnes and Aidan Morishita-Miki presented as part of Kingston’s Kick & Push Festival in the summer of 2020. The show used game mechanics to have us prepare for the apocalypse- but not the one we were living in the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the potential future nuclear apocalypse. The first half of the show involves the audience communicating with the other groups who are all isolated in their own households via walkie-talkie. The audience then came together in a park downtown to determine who would win the game and “survive” the apocalypse by escaping via boat, car, or on foot (ultimately decided by the roll of dice).

At its core, this show asked what we value more, the individual or the collective. This is a piece of participatory theatre and participation is, by definition, not something you can do alone. And yet when we look at the inspiration for this show we see so much individualism. Doomsday preppers create bunkers for themselves and their loved ones, preparing for the day when a natural disaster, economic collapse, or nuclear war means that it’s everyone for themselves. In its sim, Revelations asks us to confront our own approach to the end of the world; it offers us valuable lessons in collective care that can be applied easily to our real world.
The Effects Atmospheric Changes Have on Runoff
Authors: Tobio Marco
Published: March 2023

Over the last century, the earth has seen unprecedented atmospheric concentrations contaminate our ecosystems due to human activity.  Predictions state the introduction of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), will increase temperatures, and change the amount and location of precipitation causing more runoff. This could potentially result in disturbance events such as floods, to be more frequent and severe. This study aims to perform an assessment of the effects of a range of hypothetical climate changes on runoff in the North-east Pond River watershed, located in Newfoundland.

To carry this out a watershed runoff model simulates runoff in the basin for current climatic conditions and for hypothetical climatic conditions that represent a range of possible climate changes (Bobba et al., 1997).  The hypothetical changes in climate will showcase the effects of a 2oC increase in temperature on the total annual precipitation.  This will then be compared to flood forecasting models to analyze how runoff will be affected by various climatic conditions, inducing unusual flooding events (Wijayarathne & Coulibaly, 2020).  Previous studies have indicated the runoff sensitivity in watersheds to changes in temperatures which raises concerns as to the adverse effects this may cause in limiting water resources in the semi-arid regions in parts of Canada and the U.S. Thus, there is a need to increase the understanding of the sensitivity of water resources in Canadian watersheds to climate variability and climate change as effects of this magnitude on the North-east Pond River could have significant environmental implications.

Published: March 2023

The in vitro study aimed to evaluate the utilization of maggot flour from selected substrates as a substitute for soybean meal in sheep rations on digestibility and rumen fermentation in vitro. Maggot were reared using three different substrates i.e., sheep feces, household waste and bread waste. The BSF maggot product with feces substrate showed the highest protein was used in this study. The treatments in this study were T1=100% soybean meal, T2=50% soybean meal + 50% maggot flour, T3=100% maggot flour. In vitro rumen fermentation and digestibility were conducted and the parameters were pH, NH3, volatile fatty acid (VFA), dry matter digestibility (DMD) and organic matter digestibility (OMD). Maggot rearing data were presented descriptively while the in vitro data were analyzed using analysis of variance. The result showed that the treatments had no significant effect (P>0.05) on pH, VFA, DMD and OMD, but replacement of soybean meal (100% maggot flour) affected NH3 production. The utilization of maggot as a substitute for soybean meal in sheep ration did not have a negative impact on in vitro fermentability and rumen digestibility.
Morpho-colorimetric characterization of the embryonic development of Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae): Approach for its use for biological control strategy
Authors: FERNÁNDEZ ACEVEDO Victoria , RODRÍGUEZ GIL Sergio , SCHNEIDER Marcela I.
Published: March 2023

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a pest control approach that considers all available strategies and their subsequent integration for pest control. The Biological Control (BC) of pests through the use of natural enemies is an outstanding strategy. Biological control by generalist predators has had a highlighted relevance in the last decade. This strategy by augmentation demands mass rearing of these organisms. In the Neotropical Region Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) is of great importance for its high voracity and its wide range of hosts. The aim of this study was to describe the external changes of the eggs, especially in colour and shape, associated with the intrachorionic development of C. externa embryos, to characterize them morpho-colorimetrically. A practical key from its embryonic development determination was constructed as a tool for mass rearing technique, providing valuable information that could facilitate BC implementation for IPM programs in developing regions.

Published: March 2023

Toxicity of four pesticides in ecosystem services of terrestrial arthropofauna in cocoa cultivation was evaluated. Cypermethrin (T1), carbofuran (T2), copper oxychloride (T3) and chlorpyrifos (T4) were applied in a cocoa farm in San Martín, Peru. Forty pitfall traps were placed for each treatment to capture terrestrial arthropofauna in four evaluations. It is concluded that the families that presented the greatest abundance of individuals were Formicidae, Entomobryidae and Poduridae. For the global evaluation, significant differences were found in the predators for the specific richness index, being T3 the one that presented the lowest numbers; while for the Margalef index, the lowest value was T3. For the analysis by evaluations, significant differences were found in the detritivores during the second evaluation for the number of individuals, with T4 being the lowest number. Significant differences were also found in the predators during the first evaluation in the Margalef index, with the lowest value being observed in T4. The trophic guild that allowed the most efficient evaluation of the toxicity were the predators, T1 is the most compatible pesticide with the terrestrial arthropods associated with cocoa cultivation, and the alpha diversity indices showed significant differences between the applied pesticides.

Authors: ÖZCAN Kadir , TUNAZ Hasan
Published: March 2023

In this study, the mortality of diatom earth from Turkey coded ACN-1 against the German cockroach (Blattella gemanica L. Blattodea: Ectobiidae) adults on concrete, ceramic and parquet surfaces was investigated. Biological tests were carried out on three different surfaces against the adults of B. germanica at doses of 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 g/m2 diatom earth coded ACN-1 for 6 days. In all surface applications of ACN-1 diatomaceous earth, exposure time and doses caused significant effect on mortality rates of B. germanica adults. Diatom earth ACN-1 at 2.5 g/m2 caused 97.5%, 92.3% and 90% of mortality of B. germanica adults on the surfaces of concrete, ceramic and parquet at the end of the first day, respectively and 100% of mortality was obtained at the end of the second day in all conditions with this dose. For all other application doses, 100% mortality of B .germanica adults was observed at the end of the first day. In general, the mortality activity of ACN-1 diatom eartn against B. germanica adults was found to be similar on all three surfaces. We conclude that the Turkish diatom earth coded ACN-1, which is harmless to the environment, has the potential to be used in the control of B. germanica, which is a medical pest, and can be a good alternative in the control against this pest.

El mar
Authors: Cuervo Germán
Published: March 2023

El genero fantástico no ha sido desarrollado en Colombia. La anécdota de “thriller”y narcotráfico es solo un pretexto para volar y viajar en el mundo onírico, para desplazarse a otros significados y construir una metáfora urbana. Las casas son el mar. El planeta tierra está siendo inundado por el agua. En este otro sentido, la novela adquiere cada día una mayor actualidad. “Quería hacer una novela de serie negra que veo lo más parecida a nuestra realidad, pero las noticias diarias de progresivas inundaciones, se fueron metiendo en el libro hasta que se me inundó la novela”. El autor parte escarbando en el inconsciente de una colectividad a través de la experiencia de un solo individuo, hasta realizar el deseo de la ciudad en una representación fantasmagórica de poseer un mar. El Mar es la única gran novela surrealista colombiana.

SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS AND IMAGE OF NATIONS: APPROPRIATING THE ENERGIES OF SELECT NIGERIAN SMIS TO BOOST NIGERIA’S GLOBAL REPUTATION
Authors: Usua Ntiense , Ijah Isomgboawaji Ntente Ruth
Published: March 2023

Nigerian has been grappling with battered image since independence but more so since the return of the nation to civilian rule in 1999. The various governments, conscious of the importance of good reputation at a time interdependence among nations is a necessity, have been embarking on image laundry activities but largely, the nation is perceived as a corrupt, insecure, lawless and economically weak nation with people who are not to be trusted for serious partnership. This has worsened with the negative stereotype of developing nations by global media. But developments in the entertainment industry—music, movie, comedy and related content making enterprises—which have produced several influencers, indicate that notwithstanding negative portrayal, social media influencers have made contents that have popularized and portray them in positive ways and through that, endear themselves to global audiences, using the social media. This gives rise to the need to find out whether the visibility of Social Media Influencers could be exploited to change the negative image of the country and to find out how the social media influencers could help in this regard, among other objectives. Using the library research approach, the paper analyses the relationship between the media and national image, the role of social media in image building as well as examine how popular social media influencers through their contents can boost Nigeria’s image. The SMIs analyzed were selected based on news publications of their popularities on the different social media platforms such as TikTok, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. The publications include top 10 lists of most popular people on these social media platforms and most popular viral contents by Nigerians in the past few years leading up to 2022. Supported by the precepts of perception and technological determinism theories respectively, the paper notes that updating of the perception of the country can occur through the interaction with the observed, in this case the SMIs and that technology (social media) can be leveraged upon to solve Nigeria’s image problem. It concludes that if the SMIs could make positive impacts as demonstrated by their large followings at the global stage, they could deploy their energies to create positive image for Nigeria. It recommends the deliberate involvement of SMIs as forces that can cause a positive update of the perspective of the global audience about Nigeria in the effort to change the narrative that has been built around the nation and indeed change the image of the country in order to rebrand and reposition it in the comity of nations.
Globalization and its implications for the sovereignty of the state

Published: March 2023

Television shows need a rating in their assessment, but public opinion is also required to complete it. Sentiment analysis is necessary for its completion. An essential step in sentiment analysis is pre-processing because, in public opinion, there are still many inappropriate writings. This study aims to compare the performance results using different pre-processing scenarios to get the best pre-processing performance on Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Naïve Bayes (NB) on sentiment analysis about the television show X Factor Indonesia. The stages used to start from literature study, problem analysis, design, data collection, pre-processing with two scenarios, word weighting with TF-IDF, classification using SVM and NB, then resulting accuracy from Confusion Matrix. The findings of this research are that optimal performance can be achieved using a comprehensive pre-processing scenario. This scenario should include the following steps: case-folding, removing emoji, cleansing, removing repetition characters, word normalization, negation handling, stopwords removal, stemming, and tokenization, with an accuracy of 79.44% on the SVM algorithm. This research shows that the complete pre-processing of the SVM algorithm is better in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.

Authors: Arief M.Ilham , Kusrini Kusrini , Hidayat Tonny
Published: March 2023

The marker-based tracking method is a method that utilizes markers, while the markerless-based tracking method is a method that does not use markers in making AR. In the markerless-based tracking method, there is a face tracker technique. In previous research, no one has discussed the comparison of effectiveness concerning the success and accuracy of using the face tracker technique. Therefore, this study aims to test the effectiveness of the accuracy and accuracy of success with applying the markerless-based tracking method, the face tracker technique, in detecting facial movements. in 2D and 3D AR with light intensity test parameters of 20 Lux, 40 Lux, and 60 Lux with WRGB light color, Face angle position of 30o and 60o, and face distance from camera 50 cm, 100cm, and 150cm. The results of comparison of superior success accuracy are at a distance of 50 cm; with an accuracy rate for 2D AR of 93.22% and 96.63% for 3D. It was concluded that the face tracker technique's markerless-based tracking method works optimally in 3D compared to 2D. This research finds an attractiveness score of 1.865, a perception score of 1.683, an efficiency score of 1.550, a dependability score of 1.638, a stimulation score of 1.500, and a novelty score of 1.013. Quality with an attractiveness value of 1.68, pragmatic quality of 1.56, and hedonic quality of 1.26. This study concludes that 2D and 3D AR face detection positively evaluates user experience and quality.
Nationalising Women’s Bodies: Discourse and Politics of Prostitution in Ireland and Spain
Authors:   Maynooth University (Ireland), Ryan Paul , Danet Danet Alina ,   Universidad de Granada (España)
Published: March 2023

This article explores how women’s sexuality has played a central role in building and reproducing the collective identity of the nation in two countries, Ireland and Spain. It argues how a nationalisation of women’s bodies created a symbolic and idealised version of womanhood, reinforced by a complex infrastructure of criminal code, places of rehabilitation and a system of surveillance operating through government, medical and religious institutions. We explore these processes through an analysis of the discourses governing prostitution in leading newspapers between 1939 and 1975, corresponding to the public nation-building projects to Catholic nationalism through the idealisation of family, motherhood and domestic life. Three key discourses from the newspaper coverage have been identified around prostitution: protecting the national body, the exile of women in prostitution and ordinary women as a threat, to trace the process of renewed nation building that occurred in both countries from the 1940s onwards.

Authors:   Universidad de Cádiz (España), Marín del Ojo Patricia , Cancelas-Ouviña Lucía-Pilar ,   Universidad de Cádiz (España)
Published: March 2023

This research shows how the gender perspective can be introduced into Compulsory Secondary Education and Baccalaureate by focusing on the work of two Anglo-Saxon women writers considered to be bastions of feminism: Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) and Sylvia Plath (1932-1963). The research design follows a methodology known as Design-Based Research (de Benito Crosetti y Salinas Ibáñez 2016) which offers as a product a reading guide in the form of a literary constellation (Jover 2009, Garvis 2015) that includes the following selection of English-language adaptations for young people: Mrs Dalloway (1925), To the Lighthouse (1927), A Room of One’s Own (1929), Three Women (1962), The Bell Jar (1963) and Ariel (1965). The value of this research lies in showing the feasibility of bringing Woolf’s and Plath’s literary production closer to young audiences, presenting teaching material in English that is accessible and adapted to their language level. The reading of these works contributes to raising students’ awareness and developing a critical awareness of the gender perspective.

Published: March 2023

The main goal of this study is to investigate the tourist effects on heritage damage caused by per‑ nicious interventions (whether such are intentional or not). At the same time, it seeks to analyse the reasons that lead to these actions and also to make these measures and actions known. Six (6) heritage resources were selected as objects on account of their social relevance and impact in the media. The qualitative‑quantitative methodology used is based on the content analysis of the news in the press along with interviews held with 11 experts/professionals in the field. The results reveal that it is necessary to apply strong sanctions against irresponsible acts towards heritage, besides implementing more political and administrative measures of protection and control of cultural heritage. Finally, a proposal is put forward to work in a series of areas where tourism emerges to project heritage interpretation as a strategy to contribute to awareness‑raising and social responsibility.

Authors:   Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (Brasil), Scortegagna Socal Ana Julia , Ribeiro Marcelo ,   Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (Brasil)
Published: March 2023

The general objective of this study is to analyse how the revitalisation of Canela and Passo Fundo railway stations and their use by tourists contribute to the preservation of railway memory and railway heritage. Specifically, it intends to identify what configures stations as heritage; to understand the role of tourism in the use and preservation of revitalised spaces and to understand how revitalisation contributes to the maintenance of railway memory. Using a comparative‑descriptive method, the study analyses the two stations from three analytical perspectives: the attribution of use and utilisation of spaces, legibility and railway memory. The revitalisation thanks to tourism provided a greater use of spaces, with increased traf‑ fic and flows. Tourism does not invalidate the heritage character of the stations, but rather reinforces it by allowing people to have contact with these places through public use.

Published: March 2023

Industrial Tourism has been consolidated in Portugal. There are already some successful examples, such as Vila Nova de Famalicão (VNF). This region was involved in the creation of an industrial tourism network within the brand of “Famalicão Cidade Têxtil”, to promote industry and industrial heritage. In this piece of research, we seek to assess the perceptions of the local entities involved in this network project in VNF. Methodologically, after carrying out a questionnaire survey, it is possible to identify that, in most of the partners, the dissemination of information about the company and the product was the main reason for their integration, also highlighting the increase in local tourism and the desire to open doors to the public. It is concluded that the project was a bid by the municipality to allow for valorisation of industries, whether they are in operation or not, attracting more and more visitors.
Synthesis of Bone Scaffold for Pediatric Bone Defects Using 3D Printing
Authors: Ramos-Homs Amy
Published: March 2023

Pediatric bone defects, requiring surgical interventions and implants, include malignant and nonmalignant bone tumors and trauma fractures. Malignant bone tumors (MBT), such as Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma, are aggressive primary cancers that affect growing adolescent bones (10- to 19-year-olds) and require complex reconstruction due to large bone excision during surgical interventions. Pediatric bone fractures requiring surgical interventions peak in 10- to 14-year-olds and are a major public health concern in the US with an impact on patients, parents, and healthcare costs of approx. 350 billion. These diseases require bone tissue replacement in changing bones. Bone reconstruction and medical implant design for growing pediatric bones have unique challenges due to active growth and there is a greater need for active, resorbable, and patient-specific implants to prevent growth impediments. The current available pediatric implant is limited in addressing these needs and is primarily addressed by static metallic implants designed for adults. We plan to work towards the design and synthesis of a bone scaffold by modifying a CAD model considering the size of the porosity in the structure of the pediatric bone. This modified model will be 3D printed and subjected to tests to evaluate the strength and composition of the scaffold. Afterwards, the scaffold is used for cell culture in hopes of eliciting cellular response for bone formation and cell regeneration, since a key factor to assess is whether the scaffold will grow with the bone, or the bone will grow with the scaffold. This is done to support the attachment of cells on the surface of the bone to actively support bone modeling processes under structural changes of growing bones.
CNT Metamaterial Fabrication 3D Printing Mask Process
Authors: Rivero III Jose
Published: March 2023

The demand for clean energy is rising with the global population. Renewable energy sources, such as solar, will play a key role in the years ahead. Solar energy has a key problem with energy storage as the energy produced during peak solar hours must be used immediately or stored. Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) have unique electrostatic properties, similar to metals, capable of producing and storing electric energy in the form of a capacitor. The CNTs are to be arranged in a pattern using 3D printing to generate a Split Ring Resonator (SRR) metamaterial. Past research has shown generating CNT SRR patterns is possible using a Focused Ion Beam (FIB). FIB allows for limited sample size to be patterned for CNT growth. On the other hand, 3D printed shadow masks enable SRR patterns on a larger sample size. Today’s 3D printing technology cannot achieve the same resolution as FIB patterning yet are capable of producing larger samples. In the present research, a 3D model of a shadow mask with the desired SRR pattern was created using Fusion 360 and printed using Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K 3D printer. For the CNT synthesis process, first, heat-treated Silicon Oxide substrate was placed into a RF magnetic sputtering to deposit the first catalyst film of Aluminum Oxide using Argon plasma. The sample then was removed from the chamber to place the mask on and placed back in to sputter an Iron catalyst layer. The sample was then taken to a thermal catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) chamber in which it was annealed to 730° C and afterwards exposed to acetylene gas to generate CNTs.

Published: March 2023

Objectives:

Asthma is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in childhood. Some comorbidities such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), sleep disorders, among others, may be more prevalent in those patients, leading to great impact in school performance. Tus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of symptoms of ADHD, sleep disorders and school impact in patients with asthma.

Materials and Methods:

A cross-sectional study was conducted, in which were included patients aged from 6 to 14 years with diagnosis of asthma, and data were collected from clinical records and also by telephone contact, in order to reach all the necessary information.

Results:

The sample consisted of 32 patients with asthma, in which ADHD symptoms were present in 53% of them, with an equal prevalence of inattentive and hyperactive patterns. Seventeen patients (53.1%) presented respiratory sleep disorders. Complaints about learning difficulties were positive in 50% of asthmatics, with greater difficulty in writing.

Conclusion:

The prevalence of ADHD symptoms, respiratory sleep disorders and learning difficulties was high, indicating the importance of investigating attention and learning disabilities in children diagnosed with asthma.
Can anterior cervical diskectomy/fusion (ACDF) be safely performed in ambulatory surgical centers (ASC’s)?
Authors: Epstein Nancy E.
Published: March 2023

Background:

Can anterior cervical diskectomy/fusion (ACDF) be safely performed in ambulatory surgical centers (ASC’s: i.e. discharges 4-7.5 hr. postoperatively) that meet the following stringent “exclusion criteria”; elevated Body Mass Index (BMI), major comorbidities, age > 65, American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) scores > II, and largely multilevel ACDF.

Materials:

Presently, most ACDF are still being performed in hospital-based outpatient surgical centers (HBSC: utilizing 23-hour stays), or as inpatients.

Results:

Notably, unreliable disparate study designs involving very different patient populations resulted in nearly comparable, but implausible outcomes for 1-level vs. multilevel ACDF series performed in ASC. A summary of these outcome data included the following rates of; i.e. postoperative hospital transfers (0-6%), 30-day (up to 2.2%), and up to 90 day (2.2%) emergency department (ED) visits, readmissions, and reoperations.

Conclusion:

Nevertheless, it is just common sense that “less should be less”, that 1-level ACDF should involve less risk compared with multilevel ACDF procedures performed in ASC.
Perspective: Early direct repair of recurrent postoperative cerebrospinal (CSF) fluid leaks: No good evidence epidural blood patches (EBP) work
Authors: Epstein Nancy E. , Agulnick Marc A
Published: March 2023

Background:

“Targeted” epidural blood patches (EBP)” successfully treat “focal dural tears (DT)” diagnosed on thin-cut MR or Myelo-CT studies. These DT are largely attributed to; epidural steroid injections (ESI), lumbar punctures (LP), spinal anesthesia (SA), or spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SICH). Here we asked whether “targeted EBP” could similarly treat MR/Myelo-CT documented recurrent post-surgical CSF leaks/DT that have classically been effectively managed with direct surgical repair.

Methods:

Utilizing ultrasound, fluoroscopy, or O-arm guidance, “targeted EBP” effectively manage “focal DT” attributed to ESI, LP, SA, or SICH. Here we reviewed the literature to determine whether similar “targeted EBP” could effectively manage recurrent postoperative CSF leaks/DT.

Results:

We were only able to identify 3 studies involving just 20 patients that attempted to utilize EBP to control postoperative CSF fistulas/DT. EBP controlled CSF fistulas/DT in 6 patients in the first study, and 9 of 10 patients (i.e. 90%: 2/2 cervical; 7/8 lumbar) in the second study. However, in the third study, 3 (60%) of 5 EBP failed to avert recurrent CSF leaks/DT in 4 patients (i.e. 1 cervical patient (2 EBP failed attempts), 3 lumbar patients (1 failed EBP)).

Conclusion:

Early direct surgical repair of recurrent postoperative spinal CSF leaks/DT remains the treatment of choice. Our literature review revealed 3 underpowered studies including just 20 patients where 20% of EBP failed to control recurrent postoperative fistulas (range of failure from 0-60% per study). Although there are likely other studies we failed to identify in this review, they too are likely insufficiently powered to document significant efficacy for performing EBP over direct surgical repair for recurrent postoperative CSF leaks/DT.

Методами просвечивающей электронной микроскопии проведены исследования деформационного рельефа на разных стадиях деформационного упрочнения монокристаллов Cu–12 ат. % Al. Проанализирована взаимосвязь рельефа поверхности со стадиями деформационного упрочнения и субструктурной эволюцией. Подтверждено, что стадия III деформационного упрочнения определяется процессами микродвойникования. Выявлены особенности рельефа поверхности, связанные с развитием микродвойникования в плоскостях скольжения. Показано, что деформационный рельеф на стадии IV деформации содержит короткие искривленные линии сдвига. Сформулировано условие начала процесса микродвойникования. Проведены оценки плотности дислокаций, необходимой для начала процесса микродвойникования, которые показали хорошее совпадение со средней плотностью дислокаций, измеренной экспериментально.

Методом прямого лазерного выращивания получены образцы из жаропрочного сплава на никелевой основе ЭП648. Проведён отжиг при температуре 1180 °С в течение 4 часов. Измерена твёрдость, выполнен оптический микроструктурный анализ, рентгенографический анализ. Установлено, что прямое лазерное выращивание образцов из сплава ЭП648 приводит к формированию структуры с сильным рефлексом в области угла интерференции 2θ=51°, который может принадлежать твёрдому раствора легирующих элементов в никеле, а также фазе Ni3Cr2. Наблюдаются пики в области углов интерференции 2θ<40°, которые могут принадлежать соединению Ni2Cr, частицы этой фазы слабо различимы на изображениях оптической металлографии. Проведение отжига в образах по указанному режиму приводит к повышению твёрдости от 19±4 HRC до 34±0,3 HRС. В результате проведения отжига происходит появление пиков в области угла интерференции 2θ=43° и 75°, что вероятно для твёрдого раствора на основе никеля и фазы Ni3Cr2. При этом сохраняется ГЦК решётка со значительным превышением периода решётки по сравнению с чистым никелем и присутствие фазы Ni2Cr. Положение и высота пиков на малых углах интерференции 2θ<40° не изменяется.
ВЛИЯНИЕ СВЕРХПЛАСТИЧНОСТИ НА ТВЕРДОФАЗНУЮ СВАРИВАЕМОСТЬ КРИСТАЛЛИЧЕСКИХ МАТЕРИАЛОВ
Authors: Лутфуллин Р.Я.
Published: March 2023

Классическая диффузионная сварка, осуществляемая при температуре, близкой к 0,8Тпл кристаллического сплава, под действием напряжений ниже напряжения течения и без осуществления макро пластической деформации фактически является структурно-неконтролируемым технологическим процессом. Это обстоятельство часто приводит к невозможности достижения гарантированного качества твердофазного соединения (ТФС) после диффузионной сварки. Кардинальное решение проблемы обеспечения высокого качества твердофазного соединения достижимо при использовании эффекта структурной сверхпластичности (СП). Впервые, влияние СП на повышение технологичности сварки в твердом состоянии труднообрабатываемых титановых сплавов, обнаружили и опубликовали советские исследователи в 1975 году. На сегодняшний день твердо установлена определяющая роль сверхпластической деформации в достижении требуемого качества сварки при температурах 0,6-0,4 от Тпл на примере целого ряда титановых, алюминиевых, жаропрочных никелевых сплавов и сталей. При этом, влияние низкотемпературной СП при температурах, составляющих 0,4 от Тпл на твердофазную свариваемость материалов, вызывает научно-практический интерес у исследователей и инженеров, оставаясь актуальной научно-технической задачей.

Phosphate ions are important molecules used in critical activities, such as those in agriculture or medicine. However, because of their chemical makeup, sensing them using a chemosensor is difficult. In the past, chemists attempted to solve this issue by creating sophisticated chemical structures as receptors, but with mixed results. Here, using just chemicals that are readily accessible on the market, we establish a straightforward metal extrusion-based fluorescence indicator displacement assay (MEFID) for phosphate detection. Using a fluorophore and cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN), phosphate ions in aqueous solutions are probed. With an average concentration higher than copper and being the most prevalent rare earth on the planet (48 p.p.m.), cerium is an intriguing metal for the identification of analytes. We demonstrate, that the inorganic complex detects phosphate ions in low micromolar concentrations, either spectrophotometrically, by 31P NMR, or with the naked- eye, with high selectivity over common competing anions, including halides, acetate, carbonate, and, remarkably, pyrophosphate. In addition, perturbation of the sensor with phosphorylated molecules such as ATP is minimal. The development of receptors that endures a precipitation offers systems for the purification of surface waters as presented by the probing of environmental samples.
