In industries, the task of intensifying the process of dissolving gases in liquid media is relevant, since the time of the technological cycle depends on its course. Absorption processes affect the quality of the finished product and energy costs. In the food industry shell-and-tube jet injectors (SJT) are widespread, in which the mechanical injection of a free-falling jet of liquid surrounding its gas is applied. The aim of this work is to investigate the process of gas entrainment by free jets of water-malt slurry (WSS) in the pipes of the SJT. The set goal was achieved by solving the tasks: creating an experimental stand to study the process of atmospheric air injection by water-salt suspensions in the tubes of the SJT; developing a methodology for experimental studies; conducting research on the processes of gas injection by free liquid jets depending on the flow rate and liquid concentration. The most important result of the work is the establishment of graphical and mathematical dependences for the investigated WSS hydromodules, which allow calculating the flow rate carried away by the jet depending on the nozzle diameter. It is found that the gas phase entrainment by free suspension jets is influenced by the viscosity of the suspension, which depends on a number of technological parameters. The practical significance of the obtained results consists in the proposed methodology for calculating the design characteristics of SISA, providing the highest efficiency of its operation taking into account the properties of working environments and parameters of technological processes.

. The purpose of this work was to study the possibility of correcting the shape and position of the plastic zone, as the main element of the structure of the burden column in a blast furnace, by controlling its loading mode. To achieve this goal, a new method has been developed for determining the coordinates of the lines of softening and melting of the burden based on information about the gas temperature above the surface of the charge and the characteristics of the distribution of burden materials, a criterion for the technological assessment of the cohesive zone has been proposed, and the relationship between its thickness and the distribution of the burden has been studied. Important results are the established connections between the coordinates of the softening and melting lines with the gas temperature above the surface of the charge and the characteristics of the distribution of burden materials, as well as the development of a criterion for the technological assessment of the formed cohesive zone and the justification for the possibility of adjusting its parameters by changing the distribution of charge components with the calculation determination of the composition and prediction of high-temperature properties of their mixtures in different zones of the furnace. The significance of the obtained results lies in the justification of the possibility and solution of the problem of improving the parameters of the cohesive zone by adjusting the charge loading regime to ensure the energy efficiency of the blast furnace process.
Práticas de curas e benzedeiras e suas representações: o caso do distrito de Santa Luzia do Cariri-PB.

Published: June 2023

O presente trabalho aborda a atuação dos(as) benzedeiros(as) no distrito de Santa Luzia do Cariri- PB a partir de uma perspectiva cuja atenção está voltada para compreendermos como estas práticas de rituais de cura estão sendo realizadas através das(os) benzedeiras(os) daquele lugar. Foram nossos interesses específicos: identificar a história do lugar para que possamos situar temporalmente e espacialmente os nossos sujeitos, procurando identificar uma possível relação das práticas culturais desses como resultado das marcas de continuidade das expressões culturais dos povos originários que habitaram a microrregião do Cariri paraibano; analisar as práticas da benzedura de mulheres e homem de Santa Luzia do Cariri enquanto resultado de um contínuo e dinâmico processo de acúmulo de saber popular, destacando como são constituídos os seus diversos rituais de curas mágico-religiosas e os elementos simbólicos utilizados nas suas realizações, bem como identificarmos quais são as principais doenças e práticas curativas presentes em nosso lócus de pesquisa; e pesquisar alguns discursos que se elaboram sobre as benzedeiras, destacando como no mundo ocidental os mesmos foram apresentados dentro de um quadro de continuidades e descontinuidades, e, especificamente, focando nas enunciações discursivas do padre e do médico do lugar no sentido de perceber quais representações esses dois sujeitos detentores dos saberes religioso e científico, respectivamente, reservam para as rezadeiras. Buscamos aporte teórico no campo da História Cultural, em especial nas articulações de Thompson (1998) e Chartier (1990). O método de procedimento utilizado foi o da pesquisa qualitativa (MINAYO, 1994) e a coleta de dados foi feita através de consulta a uma bibliografia geral e a memória de velhos. Os estudos realizados permitiram compreender que esse universo de cura envolve a participação efetiva de mulheres e homens com histórias e vivências diversificadas, mas que se assemelham pela simplicidade e dificuldades experienciadas. Todos são unanimes em afirmarem pertencentes à religião católica, apesar de eles estarem a margem da religião institucionalizada e exercem suas funções de forma independente estabelecendo suas próprias regras de ordenamento em suas práticas de cura. São as benzedeiras (os) culturalmente caracterizadas por serem portadoras de um poder especial, capazes de controlar o desequilíbrio físico, emocional e espiritual por meio de benzeção. Por fim, compreendemos o posicionamento da Igreja Católica e do saber médico científico sobre essas práticas, haja vista que é impossível pensar a benzedura separada desses dois discursos.

Published: June 2023

The sensing behaviors of monolayer antimonide phosphorus (SbP) for hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are investigated by means of the density functional theory. In this paper, we calculated the best adsorption configuration, charge transfer, adsorption distance, band gap, electronic structure and recovery time of H2S on the SbP monolayer and mental-doped SbP (X-SbP). The calculated results indicate that Al atom replaces Sb atom of SbP (Al-Sb-SbP), adsorption capacity was greatly increased, but the covalent bond formed between the gas molecules and the substrate was not suitable for sensing materials. And though Co or Ni atom could improve the interactions between H2S gas and SbP sheets, the recovery time was too long. It was also not suitable for the sensor material of H2S gas. However, for Pd doped SbP, Pd-Sb and Pd-P doping all exhibit excellent gas sensing performance for H2S gas with the adsorption energy of -0.677eV and -0.520eV, the charge transfer 0.1113e and 0.0930e, the recovery time 0.19s and 5.30and#215;10-4 s, respectively. These characters made Pd-SbP suitable for H2S gas sensing material. Which further analysis we knew that these changes were mainly due to the orbital hybridization between the s, p orbitals of Pd atom and the p orbitals of S atom. Theoretical studies show that Pd-doped SbP is a promising H2S gas sensing material

Selection of good filler-polymer pair results in improved gas separation performances. Present study deals with fabrication of Matrimid based hybrid or mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) by using three weight loadings (10, 20 and 30 wt. %) of 1D rod shaped nanoporous [Pr(BTC)(H2O)6] metal organic framework (MOF). The fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometric analysis indicated the bonding of lanthanide metal ion with the linker and thus formation of the MOF, and further revealed that the structure of MOF remained intact after incorporation into the polymer matrix. Powder X-ray (PXRD) analysis revealed purity and crystallinity of the MOF while the PXRD results for the MMMs indicated that crystallinity of the MOF remained unaffected after fabrication of the MMMs. The Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results gave an indication of the formation of the MOF in same morphology as it is previously reported. Additionally, nice distribution and well adherence of the additive particles throughout the polymer matrix was observed while the interfacial voids were visibly absent. The MOF and the MMMs were thermally stable and crystallinity of MOF particles remained intact after dispersion into polymer matrix. The Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET) surface area of the MOF was also obtained that indicated its permanent porosity. The prepared MMMs were flexible enough to handle for all analysis. These findings led to conclude that a proper polymer-filler pair was made that produced defect free MMMs. The prepared MMMs can be evaluated in future for their performance towards separation of different gases after modification of the pore of the filler
Mathematical Model of Malaria Transmission with Anti-Malarial Herbal Therapy as Control
Authors: O.A. Elakhe , A.O. Isere , R.F. Akerejola
Published: June 2023

Conventional anti–malarial drugs (chloroquine, Artesunate, Quinine, Amodiaquine etc) are used by most malaria-endemic countries as first-line treatment for uncomplicated malaria. However, resistance by plasmodium parasite against these conventional anti–malarial drugs has necessitated the need for herbal medicine as alternative. So in this study, we formulate a mathematical model of malaria transmission in two interacting population of human (host) and mosquito (vector) incorporating anti-malarial herbal therapy as first line treatment for uncomplicated malaria infection. The region where the model is epidemiological feasible and mathematically well–posed is established and the basic reproduction number R_0 is derived using next generation matrix approach. The numerical experiment carried out to access the impact of the control measure on malaria transmission revealed a reduction in the number of complicated infectious human population. Hence this research work suggests a massive campaign on use of anti-malarial herbal therapy as first- line treatment for malaria infection cases.

It was also discovered that majority of the working-class adult females in Awka Anambra State sees the ketogenic – diet information in a good light but respond to it minimally due to some challenges mention in this work. The study recommended that the influencers of the ketogenic diet on the internet should be properly informed on the benefits and effects of this diet while disseminating necessary information. And as well let the dieters know beforehand that in as much as there are benefits of engaging in the diet plan there are also some unpleasant experiences they might encounter. It has been established in this study that ketogenic information helps the respondents make informed decision concerning their health. This study however also recommends that Ketogenic diet ingredients should be made available and affordable at all time.
A Study on Academic Achievement in Relation to Learning Styles of Senior Secondary School Students
Authors: Nanaware Rajkumar B. , Baviskar Chandrakant
Published: June 2023

A learner's capacity to acquire and process information in a learning environment is their "learning style". One of the essential applications of learning styles is that teachers may easily incorporate them into their instructional strategies. Students learn in various ways; amongst the rest, the visual, auditory, and kinaesthetic (VAK) are the most prominent. This endeavour aims to identify secondary students' preferred sensory modalities for learning and analyse the association between academic achievement and learning style subscales. The study included 100 students selected using simple random sampling from Karnataka's class 8th and 9th grades secondary school students. Findings reveal that the predominant sensory modality of learning was aural and more prevalent than visual and kinaesthetic learning (34%). The relationship between learning style and academic success is statistically significant (p< 0.05). The main effects of the three variables - visual, auditory and kinaesthetic are also substantial on academic achievement. The female students were more dominant in the blend of all (Collaborative) learning styles.

Published: June 2023

A lack of natural aggregates in the future is unavoidable, which generates issues for building development. For many industries, natural resources constitute a significant source of revenue. As a result, light artificial aggregate is produced to anticipate the decreasing source of natural aggregate. Production of artificial geopolymer aggregates, fly ash from the burning of coal has been proposed. This paper investigates the optimal proportion of epoxy resin and coal fly ash-based synthetic aggregates. The artificial aggregates are produced following specific gravity and compressive strength standards that may be used as a component of lightweight structural concrete (LWC). The production polymer lightweight aggregate (PLA) comes from a combination of coal fly ash and epoxy resin. The results show that PLA 50:50 to PLA 74:26 can be used for 6 hours to make structural concrete with a strength of more than 17 MPa. PLA 80:20 could achieve compressive strength with the range of 7-17 MPa. PLA 84:16 achieves a compressive strength range of 0.35 to 7 MPa and is utilized as a non-structural element. However, the flexural strength values in concrete LWC 70:30 and LWC 80:20 are higher, at 46.1% and 7.63%, respectively.
2D axisymmetric and 3D CFD simulations of flow over the benchmark DARPA SUBOFF submarine model
Authors: Krishna H. Rahul , Issac Manoj T. , Ebenezer Dr. D. D.
Published: June 2023

### What is it about?

*Turbulent flow is fundamentally three-dimensional (3D), but two-dimensional (2D) axisymmetric computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models of axial viscous flow over streamlined axisymmetric bodies yield quick results that are approximate but very useful for preliminary studies. This is shown by comparing the results of 2D axisymmetric and 3D CFD (STAR-CCM+) models of axial flow over the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency submarine model known as the DARPA SUBOFF*.

### Why is it important?
*The CFD community is always in search of methods to reduce the overall computational time – preferably by large factors. The detailed illustration using the much-studied DARPA SUBOFF shows that this 2D axisymmetric model, in addition to being fast by a factor of more than 300, yields results for the total drag, the wall shear stress and wall pressure coefficients, and the velocity profile within the boundary layer at various locations on the body that are very nearly the same as those obtained using 3D simulations. The difference between the 2D CFD drag at a Reynolds number of 35.35 million and experimental results is only +2.05%. Thus, the method is ideally suited for preliminary optimization studies*.

### Perspectives of Authors
*The model chosen for use in any application depends on the outputs of interest. The simplest and fastest model that yields results with sufficiently low errors is the most desirable one. The model should also be robust and work well for new applications. In the preliminary design stage, a large number of options should be tried and ranked. Sub-optimal designs are often used because of the lack of time to investigate more options. A large database allows the chief designer to choose an appropriate option after considering various trade-offs. It is shown that the 2D axisymmetric model is well suited for preliminary design and the ranking of options. The error in the total drag is low and the flow in the nose and tail regions is shown to be computed with low errors. High accuracy is obtained by stating and using a few guidelines for meshing. The level of rigor in the verification and validation of the results is high and is rarely seen in recent literature. This should inspire confidence among the CFD community to use this method to study flows over streamlined axisymmetric bodies and new applications.*

The(y)ology
Authors: Brumberg-Kraus Max Yeshaye
Published: June 2023

Every body contains multitudes, but no body is immune to the ideology of oneness: one true self, one sexuality, one gender, one vision of the world, one true God. For many who identify (or who have been named by others) as transgender, queer, and nonbinary, the refusal to fit within the illusion of one set of sex and gender expectations has been met with violence and suppression. While the myth of oneness is a powerful story that shapes the contours of our societies and our selves, it is not the only myth. Performances, fictions, rituals, and theologies can transform current realities.

The(y)ology: Mythopoetics for Queer/Trans Liberation is a manifesto for artists, teachers, theologians, clergy, and activists looking for ways to resist rigid paradigms of gender, sexuality, self, and the sacred. In these pages, we are called to tell new stories about who we are and how we relate to each other within our ecosystems. The myths discussed wrestle with and transform the complex mytho-histories that have birthed and, often, harmed us. No story comes from nothing, and, more radically, perhaps no story is fully irredeemable.

In The(y)ology, feminist philosophies join with trans poetics, literary theory with liberation theologies, drag performance with kabbalah, ecologies with pornographies, and ancient theater with queer autobiographies. However ambitious its scope might be, The(y)ology is fundamentally about encouraging us all to think playfully and to play thoughtfully with the mythologies that define our lives.

BLACK RICE ETHANOL EXTRACT EFFECT ON ACCUMULATION OF LYMPHOCYTES IN LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE-INDUCED WISTAR RATS SPLEEN
Authors: Juliastuti Henny , Ratwita Welly , Aretha Ridzki Meyra
Published: June 2023

Infectious diseases are the second leading cause of death in the world after cardiovascular disease. Chronic infections were caused by anaerobic gram-negative bacteria that contain lipopolysaccharides which function as the primary defense of bacteria against antibiotics and antimicrobials. These bacteria can cause chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation can lead to the accumulation of lymphocytes in the spleen, which plays a role in the immune system. An adequate immune system is needed to overcome these infections through immunostimulators, one of which was obtained from anthocyanins derived from black rice (Oryza sativa L.indica). This study aims to determine the effect of black rice ethanol extract on the spleen of Wistar rats induced by lipopolysaccharide. This study is an experimental laboratory study with a sample of 27 rats given 400 mg/kg BW black rice extract for 14 days; then, rats were induced with LPS 0.3 mg/kg BW intraperitoneally for 24 hours before being CO2 euthanized, and the spleen was taken to examine the diameter of the lymphoid follicles. The design of this research is the Posttest Only Control Group. The results were analyzed using the One-way ANOVA test with a p-value <0.05, meaning that there was a significant difference in the diameter of the lymphoid follicles between the treatment groups. The results showed that the diameter of the lymphoid follicles in the treatment group was more extensive than that in the positive and negative control groups. In conclusion, the ethanolic extract of black rice can increase the accumulation of lymphocyte cells in the white pulp zone, thereby increasing the diameter of the lymphoid follicles in the spleen of Wistar rats induced by lipopolysaccharide.

Impacted teeth are teeth obstructed during the eruption process; the high prevalence of impacted teeth, especially third molars, accompanied by complaints that arise, requires omentectomy. Winter's classification shows various positions of impacted third molars based on angulation. This classification is judged to be describe the relationship of the apical position of the mandibular third molar tooth to the mandibular canal more clearly. The odontectomy procedure requires an excellent preoperative approach to consider the structures around the mandibular third molar, one of which is the mandibular canal, because the canal's proximity to the third molar root can increase the risk of nerve injury during the odontectomy procedure. This study aims to determine the relationship between the third mandibular impaction Winter classification and the mandibular canal distance on panoramic radiographs. The samples of this study were 53 and were grouped according to the position of the impaction vertically, mesioangularly, horizontally, and distoangularly. The study was conducted cross-sectionally by measuring the apical distance of the mandibular third molar to the upper border of the canal on a panoramic radiograph using a manual caliper. The space obtained was statistically analyzed using the eta correlation test. The results showed that 38 and 48 impactions were found to have the most mesioangular impaction, followed by horizontal, vertical, and distoangular paping the least. The mesioangular position measured the distance from the apical third molar of the impacted mandible to the closest distance to the mandibular canal, followed by the horizontal and the longest distance in the vertical position. Statistical tests were conducted to determine the relationship between the mandibular third molars and the mandibular canal. In the test results, the calculated F value on tooth 38 (2.64) and tooth 48 (0.507) was smaller than the F table value (2.794); this indicates there is no significant relationship between the two variables. The absence of a close relationship between the mandibular third molar distance and the mandibular canal indicates the possible low risk of complications in paresthesia after the odontectomy procedure.

Systemic disease is a medical condition that can affect dental care and cause complications during and after dental treatment, so it needs special attention and treatment by dentists. Systemic diseases consist of heart disorders and hypertension, diabetes, blood disorders, and others. The purpose of this study is to determine the readiness of dentists to treat patients with systemic diseases. The study was conducted by distributing questionnaires in an electronic form to dentists in West Bandung Regency (KBB) and its surroundings in the form of experience in finding patients with systemic diseases in practice and readiness in their management. Questionnaires were obtained from 83 dentists, with the results describing that 98.8% of dentists had treated patients with systemic diseases. Systemic diseases that were often found in practice are hypertension (96.2%), then diabetes (89.2%), heart disorders (65.1%), asthma (47%), allergies (45.8%), stroke (37.3%), blood disorders (27.7%), kidney disorders (25.3%), thyroid disorders (24.1%), liver disorders (14.5%), and others (2.4%). The results show that dentists in the KBB area were well-prepared to treat patients with systemic diseases. Dental and oral care in patients with systemic diseases were found in daily practice. Based on the research results, most dentists have encountered patients with systemic diseases and are ready to treat patients with controlled systemic diseases. However, when the systemic disease conditions are not governed, the dentist chooses to consult the patient with a general practitioner or internal medicine specialist first. Most dentists in the West Bandung Regency and its surroundings have found patients with systemic diseases who were well-prepared for their management plans at their practice sites.

Breast cancer is a common disease that affects women's life and health. Survival analysis of breast cancer patients can help doctors and patients understand the prognosis of patients and provide guidance for clinical treatment. In this study, experiments were conducted based on SEER breast cancer patient data, and feature selection was performed first, followed by the construction of prognostic models using four survival analysis methods. the C-Index, BS, and IBS indexes of the RSF model were 0.8535, 0.0853, and 0.0512, respectively, which had the best predictive effect in the prognostic model for breast cancer patients. Based on the SHAP method to analyze the important factors affecting the prognosis of breast cancer patients, the results showed that tumor stage, TNM stage, grade and age have a great impact on the prognosis of breast cancer patients.

Published: June 2023

According to the good conductivity and electrocatalytic activity of nano platinum and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and the hydrogel properties of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), MWCNTs and PVA double-network porous hydrogels were designed and prepared. The surface of the conductive hydrogel electrode film formed a three-dimensional porous structure, and the stacking of the PVA-coated MWCNTs formed a nanoscale micropore structure. However, the micropore network structure inside the electrode film was not obvious, which was the reason why the electrode film did not selectively catalyzed glucose. The elastic modulus of PtNPs/MWCNTs/PVA electrode film is consistent with that of PVA. Its modulus of elasticity is close to that of human tissue.

A modified pilot plant with two sequencing batch reactors on the strength of utilizing the inner carbon supply and adding suspended carriers was operated for 280 d to analyze nitrogen removal performance and microorganism community. Despite a low chemical oxygen demand (COD)/total nitrogen (TN) ratio of 3.5, the TN in the effluent decreased from 37.2 to 10.4 mg N/L. High-throughput sequencing indicated signiﬁcant differences in the abundance of the phylum Actinobacteria (p<0.0001), Firmicutes (p<0.0001), Bacteroidetes (p<0.001), Uroviricota (p<0.0001) and Planctomycetes (p<0.0001) between the anoxic-carrier bioﬁlms and ﬂocculent sludge. Quantitative PCR revealed that denitrification and anammox genes were additional abundant in the anoxic-carrier bioﬁlms than ﬂocculent sludge (narG: p<0.0001; nirS: p<0.01; narH: p<0.01; norB: p<0.0001; hzsB: p<0.01; hdh: p<0.01). Thus, enrichment with denitrification and anammox bacteria might improve nitrogen removal; this was supported by KEGG pathway annotation. Collectively, this study suggests that anoxic-carrier bioﬁlms might enhance nitrogen removal through partial denitrification and anammox process in CWWTPs.

Authors: Yang Yingxiang
Published: June 2023

The construction of ecological civilization was placed in a prominent position as early as the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2012. It must be integrated with social, economic, political, and cultural constructions to build a beautiful China and reverse the continuously deteriorating ecological environment. This has nothing to do with people's well-being and the future of the nation is closely linked. At the same time, at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping once again proposed "adhering to the harmonious coexistence between man and nature", which shows that our understanding of natural environmental protection has deepened and our determination to strengthen the construction of ecological civilization has become firmer. In the new era, in order to promote the construction of ecological civilization, it is necessary to change the traditional animal husbandry model, vigorously develop ecological breeding, and implement the concept of green and sustainable development. The purpose of this article is to make a brief summary of ecological animal husbandry and make suggestions.
