Authors: Schwartz Elka , Guidry Kathryn , Lee Amanda , Dinh Danny , Levin Mindy F. , Demers Marika
Published: August 2022

Purpose: This scoping review aimed to identify which clinical tests are used to assess upper limb, lower limb, and trunk motor coordination, and their metric and measurement properties for adult neurological populations. Method: MEDLINE (1946–) and EMBASE (1996–) databases were searched using keywords such as movement quality, motor performance, motor coordination, assessment, and psychometrics. Data regarding the body part assessed, neurological condition, psychometric properties, and scored metrics of spatial and/or temporal coordination were independently extracted by two reviewers. Alternate versions of some tests such as the Finger-to-Nose Test were included. Results: Fifty-one included articles yielded 2 tests measuring spatial coordination, 7 tests measuring temporal coordination, and 10 tests measuring both. Scoring metrics and measurement properties differed between tests, with a majority of tests having good-to-excellent measurement properties. Conclusions: The metrics of motor coordination scored by current tests vary. Since tests do not assess functional task performance, the onus falls on clinicians to infer the connection between coordination impairments and functional deficits. Clinical practice would benefit from the development of a battery of tests that assesses the metrics of coordination related to functional performance.

Hydraulic fracturing is a technique used to stimulate the production of conventional and unconventional hydrocarbons, being this type of resource is a strategic part of Argentina’s energy reserve. The procedure consists in injecting fluids at high pressure into the wellbore to create fractures in the formation that later act as highly conductive paths through which hydrocarbons can flow. Since releasing the pressure of fracturing fluids causes the fracture to close, proppant(granular materials) is pumped together with fracturing fluids. For that reason, the way proppant is transported and deposited into the formation determines the future conductivity of the fracture.We present experimental results on the transport and settling of particles carried by water in a narrow vertical fractures called from typical field conditions. We discuss some basic features of the dynamics of the settlement of the proppant dune and the final placement for different types of proppant. The effect of the chosen material on the proppant transportis significant, yielding a much deeper placement of the dune when in lower density materials are used.

We All We Got

Published: August 2022

Urban ecologies are fraught with inequities, often resulting in humanitarian or charity solutions that emphasize lack rather than communities’ self-determination. While these inequities have been widely documented, the COVID-19 pandemic further reveals how these crises are not the sum result of individual failures. Rather, they are systemically produced through policies that harm people. How do Black urban residents contend with the sociohistorical antagonisms between feelings of scarcity (e.g., food and housing insecurity, underemployment, and financial strain) and aspirations for abundance? Using ethnographic encounters in Chicago and Austin we consider how practices of mutual aid are meaningful both spatially and affectively. First, we explore how mutual aid transforms “decaying” urban spaces to meet residents’ needs. Second, we explore felt experiences of mutuality in social relationships as distinct from authoritarian, charity-based relationality. Thinking these spatial and affective dimensions collectively, we work toward a framework of Black ecologies of care and mutual aid.
Black Geographies and Black Ecologies as Insurgent Ecocriticism
Authors: Moulton Alex A. , Salo Inge
Published: August 2022

Black geographies and Black ecologies are epistemological frameworks that attend to the ideological, philosophical, and material portent of Black movements in dialectical, but not deterministic, relationships with the geographies and environments of Black life and struggle. This article reviews the Black geographies and Black ecologies literature, showing the convergence of these bodies of scholarship around themes of racial, spatial, and ecological justice. The thematic, methodological, and analytical overlaps between Black geographies and Black ecologies are quite apropos for understanding the current realities faced by Black racial-spatial-ecological justice movements; for clarifying the geographies, histories, and ecologies of Black transformation, flourishing, and everyday resistance; and for explicating how global environmental crises are rooted in racial capitalism and regimes of racialization (a sociopolitical crisis).

Published: August 2022

Epithelial ovarian serous cancer arising in endometrioma is an uncommon phenomenon. Here, we present a case of postmenopausal ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma associated with ovarian endometrioma. A 64-year-old woman attended the clinic with pelvic pain and persistent vaginal discharge. Ultrasonography revealed an endometrial thickness and 37*23 mm left cystic adnexal mass. During the operation, solid pelvic mass grossly located in the cul-de-sac infiltrating rectum and left ovarian cysts were observed. At the intraoperative frozen section, benign left adnexal mass, benign pelvic lymph nodes, and the morphological findings of adenocarcinoma with undetermined-site of the origin were detected in the uterus and rectosigmoid colon. Final pathology revealed a high-grade ovarian serous carcinoma arising in ovarian endometrioma from two microscopic focuses. In sum, when we encounter postmenopausal endometrioma with increased biomarkers, it is crucial to consider the possibility of malignant transformation to ovarian cancer.

White and bright skin is everyone's dream. Many women who do facial skin care in order to obtain healthy facial skin and attractive appearance. Facial skin care that is mostly done is the use of facial whitening creams. Face whitening cream is believed to be able to remove or lighten black spots on facial skin. Whitening cream that is often used is a night cream. Some of the night creams sold have not received permission from National Agency of Drug and Food Control of Indonesia. Usually these creams contain heavy metals, such as mercury. Mercury is toxic which when exposed and absorbed by the body can cause loss of enzyme ability in the body to cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine the presence or absence of mercury in the night cream and urine of night cream users at Abdurrab University Midwifery Study Program students. The method of this research is a qualitative examination on samples of night cream and urine used KI reagent. The results showed that the night cream sampled gave a positive test result and the urine of night cream users gave a negative test result. The conclusion of this study is that the night cream sampled contained mercury and the urine of night cream users did not contain mercury.
Towards Syntactic Epistemic Logic
Authors: Artemov Sergei
Published: August 2022

Traditionally, Epistemic Logic represents epistemic scenarios using a single model. This, however, covers only complete descriptions that specify truth values of all assertions. Indeed, many—and perhaps most—epistemic descriptions are not complete. Syntactic Epistemic Logic, SEL, suggests viewing an epistemic situation as a set of syntactic conditions rather than as a model. This allows us to naturally capture incomplete descriptions; we discuss a case study in which our proposal is successful. In Epistemic Game Theory, this closes the conceptual and technical gap, identified by R. Aumann, between the syntactic character of game-descriptions and semantic representations of games.
Resource Bisimilarity in Petri Nets is Decidable
Authors: Lomazova Irina A. , Bashkin Vladimir A. , Jančar Petr
Published: August 2022

Petri nets are a popular formalism for modeling and analyzing distributed systems. Tokens in Petri net models can represent the control flow state or resources produced/consumed by transition firings. We define a resource as a part (a submultiset) of Petri net markings and call two resources equivalent when replacing one of them with another in any marking does not change the observable Petri net behavior. We consider resource similarity and resource bisimilarity, two congruent restrictions of bisimulation equivalence on Petri net markings. Previously it was proved that resource similarity (the largest congruence included in bisimulation equivalence) is undecidable. Here we present an algorithm for checking resource bisimilarity, thereby proving that this relation (the largest congruence included in bisimulation equivalence that is a bisimulation) is decidable. We also give an example of two resources in a Petri net that are similar but not bisimilar.

SKIN: The Use of External Surface in Yacht Design
Authors: Morozzo Della Rocca Maria Carola , Zappia Giulia
Published: August 2022

Skin, external surface, coating… Those are words strictly linked to the concept of appearance, which means to be watched, to show, and sometimes to seem: a comparison between being and appearing. From a design point of view, the surface coating is, mainly, an esthetical choice. Nevertheless, sometimes that element has been due to other reasons. During the First World War, painting warships with the dazzle technique allowed them to “hide” from the enemy: the shapes and colours applied to hulls allowed them to appear in different sizes or positions compared to the actual real one. In that case, the skin assumed a vital defensive role. Even if most yachts today do not shine with peculiar external surfaces – if we closed our eyes we could imagine hulls in neutral colours, generally in one or two tones – skin however is a project element with significant potential. Ivana Porfiri commissioned Jeff Koons, acclaimed contemporary artist, to finish the external coat of the Guilty. The skin highlights shapes and formal choices of hull and superstructure, and also takes forward the link between art and yacht design, explicit by the display of art in the interiors. Another example of designed skin is LAP-1 by Francesco Paszkowski Design. Here the external coating was designed with camouflage with shades of blue, a symbolic colour for the Baglietto shipyard, responsible for building the yacht. Finally, browsing the most significant projects, the paper aims to analyse the design and use of external coatings of yachts. The skin project in a nautical context is today mainly linked to aesthetic reasons. Nevertheless, also thanks to the use of new materials, innovative painting, and covering techniques, new possibilities for skin design are envisaged. External coating, colours, textures and hull finishing could meet different and new needs in the energy and environmental field.
Surfing Green, Saving Money
Authors: Piana Elisabetta
Published: August 2022

The paper addresses the importance of fuel/lube oil treatment in marine applications. Oil filtration allows the fluid to maintain its characteristics for longer; this increases its duration and therefore reduces the need for supply. Old oil has to be disposed and every liter produces 2.6 kg of CO2 during the disposal process. Moreover, clean oil increases reliability of machinery, saving plant stops an unplanned expensive maintenance. Oil can be maintained but as contaminants accelerate oil degradation, it is very important to keep it clean and dry. A case study is reported to better understand what this means.
On the Development of a Ship Simulation Model for Maneuvering Tasks in Waves
Authors: Acanfora Maria , Altosole Marco , Fasano Ernesto , Lauria Davide
Published: August 2022

The possibility of simulating the interaction of hull, propeller, and engine is gathering the interest of several researches, in view of a more realistic design and control of the whole propulsion chain. The engine performance in rough seas is affected by the dynamics of the hull and consequently by the complex flow regime at the propeller, which induces fluctuating engine torques and revolutions. In a previous research, the case study was limited to straight run simulations in irregular waves for a Ro-pax ferry, including the power delivery contribution by a diesel engine. Herein, the numerical simulation model is further developed for allowing the simulation of the main engine behavior in waves during maneuvering tasks. In order to assess the accuracy and the limits of applicability of the implemented maneuvering model, a benchmark ship is introduced, i.e. the KVLCC2, for which several experimental data are available in the technical literature. The focus on the numerical modeling for the KVLCC2 stays in the implementation of a comprehensive maneuvering model (i.e. including rudder and propeller interactions), capable of simulating the complex dynamics of a ship maneuvering in waves with a fair level of accuracy. The comparisons between simulation and experimental data will disclose the range of applicability and the validity of the numerical models under investigation.

Published: August 2022

When subjected to a no contact underwater explosions (UNDEX), naval composite structures show highly nonlinear deformations. In this paper, fiberglass composite laminates are characterized dynamically. Experimentally, modal analyses are carried out to determine the modal parameters of the specimens, while dedicated shock tests are performed using the MIL S 901 D Medium Weight Shock Machine to measure their shock deformations. Numerically, finite element model is built up, running both modal and implicit dynamic analyses to predict the structural response of different E-Glass laminates. In the end, results obtained by calculations are compared with experimental data, validating the model.

Published: August 2022

The dimensions and level of complexity of contemporary passenger ships are evolving in an ever increasing and fast way. The logistics and possibilities to orient oneself independently must therefore deal with increasingly complex issues to be managed especially in terms of communication. If on one hand it is necessary to provide all the information regarding the safeguards and the useful practices in case of emergency, on the other hand a communication system must be structured to guarantee not only a development of life on board as smooth as possible, but also a positive perception of the level of assistance. Today Visual languages and new technologies can, through their integration, offer new possibilities for optimizing these design themes. The here presented work reports the research developed by the authors starting from considerations of the state of the art to arrive at hypothetical methodological formulas and experimental applications to be implemented. The first phase of the study focused on a series of logistic and sociological research (also through an interview campaign) in order to identify the criticalities and potentialities of the communication currently active systems. The second phase defined a study methodology through which to identify areas of action and respective languages to be adopted. Finally, the possibilities of integration among new technologies for the development of ’on demand’ visual languages were evaluated in order to fill and systematize a plurality of needs in a transversal manner.
Near Future Submarine: Development of a Combined Air Independent and Lithium Battery Propulsion System (AI-LiB Propulsion System)
Authors: Trinca Decio
Published: August 2022

Submarines are vehicles where efficiency plays a key role in energy management: conventional submarines, with a diesel engine to recharge the batteries, rely on full electric propulsion. The search for better performance in terms of efficiency and energy storage capacity, has led the World Navies with submarines, to develop alternatives to the classic lead-acid batteries. The decision of the Italian Navy Submarine Flotilla to engineer the development of a LiB propulsion system aims to provide its submarines with greater autonomy and more installed energy. Integrating this innovative technology into the new Near Future Submarine project, according to a design “space constraint” driven, involves the rethink of various critical aspects: starting from the choice of the manufacturing chemistry throughout the on board integration process, the risk assessment, the management of the entire life cycle, the spaces and weights distribution, the auxiliaries systems, involving also operational procedures for missions and the logistic supportability of the submarine in the home base and abroad, including details as maintenance at sea of LiB cells in reduced spaces. In addition, this type of technology perfectly integrates with the NFS Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) system based on fuel cells: due to twenty years of operation use of the AIP Submarines, the ITN Submarine Flotilla has developed extremely specialized know how and mature skills on the production, storage, transportation, and consumption of hydrogen as modern energy carrier. Future submarines powertrain will be like a grid and each energy source will be optimized to minimize the fuel consumption at the maximum efficiency. The achieved results will be an incentive for further R&D also in the space sector, where lithium and hydrogen have coexisted for decades in spacecraft energy storage; once again, a strong technological correlation between submarine and spacecraft has been identified, confirming the similarities between the two.

Published: August 2022

Cavitation is a highly destructive phenomenon that significantly disrupts the performance of propellers and control surfaces in the maritime industry. Hence, the prediction of forces developed during cavitation, through various numerical techniques, is imperative for the design and operation of maritime vessels. RANS turbulence models have proven to be the most computationally viable option for such a fast-paced industry. The work presented here analyses and compares several of these well-established models, including the SST k-ω and k-ε RNG models modified to account for compressibility effects. This paper aims to provide insight into the influence of timestep, mesh resolution and turbulence model on the hydrodynamic forces acting on a 2D cavitating hydrofoil, so as to facilitate future simulations.

Modern data-driven science often consists of iterative cycles of data discovery, acquisition, preparation, analysis, model building and validation leading to knowledge discovery as well as dissemination at scale. The unique challenges of building and simulating the whole rodent brain in the Swiss EPFL Blue Brain Project (BBP) required a solution to managing large-scale highly heterogeneous data, and tracking their provenance to ensure quality, reproducibility and attribution throughout these iterative cycles. Here, we describe Blue Brain Nexus (BBN), an ecosystem of open source, domain agnostic, scalable, extensible data and knowledge graph management systems built by BBP to address these challenges. BBN builds on open standards and interoperable semantic web technologies to enable the creation and management of secure RDF-based knowledge graphs validated by W3C SHACL. BBN supports a spectrum of (meta)data modeling and representation formats including JSON and JSON-LD as well as more formally specified SHACL-based schemas enabling domain model-driven runtime API. With its streaming event-based architecture, BBN supports asynchronous building and maintenance of multiple extensible indices to ensure high performance search capabilities and enable analytics. We present four use cases and applications of BBN to large-scale data integration and dissemination challenges in computational modeling, neuroscience, psychiatry and open linked data.
Digital humanities on the Semantic Web: Sampo model and portal series
Authors: Hyvönen Eero
Published: August 2022

Cultural heritage (CH) contents are typically strongly interlinked, but published in heterogeneous, distributed local data silos, making it difficult to utilize the data on a global level. Furthermore, the content is usually available only for humans to read, and not as data for Digital Humanities (DH) analyses and application development. This application report addresses these problems by presenting a collaborative publication model for CH Linked Data and six design principles for creating shared data services and semantic portals for DH research and applications. This Sampo model has evolved gradually in 2002–2021 through lessons learned when developing the Sampo series of linked data services and semantic portals in use, including MuseumFinland (2004), CultureSampo (2009), BookSampo (2011), WarSampo (2015), Norssit Alumni (2017), U.S. Congress Prosopographer (2018), NameSampo (2019), BiographySampo (2019), WarVictimSampo 1914–1922 (2019), MMM (2020), AcademySampo (2021), FindSampo (2021), WarMemoirSampo (2021), and LetterSampo (2022). These Semantic Web applications surveyed in this paper cover a wide range of application domains in CH and have attracted up to millions of users on the Semantic Web, suggesting feasibility of the proposed Sampo model. This work shows a shift of focus in research on CH semantic portals from data aggregation and exploration systems (1. generation systems) to systems supporting DH research (2. generation systems) with data analytic tools, and finally to automatic knowledge discovery and Artificial Intelligence (3. generation systems).
Selecting, Speaking and Saving: Applying Vocabulary Self-Collection Strategy in ESL Classroom at Intermediate Level at NUML
Authors: Sameen Tahira , Ayaz Amina
Published: August 2022

This particular research was conducted under the light of Martha Rapp Haggard’s vocabulary approach known as Vocabulary Self-Collection Strategy (VSS). The aim of this particular research was to enhance the active usage of vocabulary in learners with the help of VSS.  Moreover, the current study was based on the role of VSS in an English language learning classroom at intermediate level. A diagnostic pre-test was conducted on the ‘vocabulary self-collection group’ and the ‘controlled group’. The two groups were enrolled in two sections of the same reading and writing course of this diploma course. The learners who belonged to ‘vocabulary self-collection group’ were asked to self-collect words to improve their vocabulary, whereas the ‘controlled group’ was taught the vocabulary in usual manner. After two weeks of practice, the unseen post-test was administered from both the groups. The performance of both groups in the post-test was statistically analyzed and the results were quite optimistic, as vocabulary self-collection group outperformed the controlled group. The participants of this research were the researchers and the students of the intermediate level, from diploma classes at NUML. This particular research was based on qualitative and quantitative data. The quantitative data was gathered through the pre-test and the post-test and the qualitative data was attained by the observation of the researcher who analyzed the scores. The research tools were lesson plans, pre-test, and post-test. The current study material used in this course were five illustrated texts for intermediate level and vocabulary journals of the students. The sample size included 46 students of diploma level from National University of Modern Languages, Islamabad. The implementation of this particular strategy led to several improvements. Firstly, vocabulary of the learners improved and also it became a part of their active memory. Furthermore, it helped learners to define the words properly that were not known to them before, based on the context of the given text. Finally, group discussion activity improved ‘student-student interaction’ and ‘student-teacher interaction’ in the class.

The article raises the problem of projecting the process for forming key competences of preschoolers and primary school children focusing on natural science competence, and the peculiarities of training professionals able to ensure the implementation. It proves the interdependence of integration processes, activated within the framework of the educational line “Child in the natural environment”, an integrated course “I explore the world”, the model of education for sustainable development “Environment”, and the technologies of STEM-education, which from one side, are analogous to these educational programs, from the other – perform the functions of tools for their implementation. the educational line “Child in the natural environment”, an integrated course “I explore the world”, the model of education for sustainable development “I explore the world”, and the technologies of STEMeducation are interpreted as an alternative to classical, information-reproductive education. Features of STEM-technologies through positioning the most typical signs, a complex of integration processes, which make their basis, are characterized. It is proved the adaptability of STEM-technologies to different educational systems and projects, emphasizing special attention to preschool, primary education, as well as the system of training specialists for these educational levels. It also proves some interdependence of these processes and importance of their coordination and the focus on a comprehensive solution of current problems of competence education, as well as the achievement of the defined standards for all these levels. The essence and continuity of the educational line “Child in the natural environment”, an integrated course “I explore the world”, the model of education for sustainable development “Environment”, and the technologies of STEM-education are clarified, practical approaches for their realization in educational activity are demonstrated. The potential of STEM-technologies in the system of preschool, school and higher pedagogical education are also analyzed. The position is argued that the studentoriented approach, based on the individual trajectory of professional development will be implemented provided future professional activities of the teacher and educator will be the subject of their research, individual projects with adequate content, technology, diagnostic tools (mathematical modeling, design, mathematical information processing, etc.).

This article deeply analyses the innovative approaches to the introduction of health disciplines in the system of training future educators. It focuses on defining integrated indicators and criteria for the formation of various professional competencies of students in the discipline "Fundamentals of Medical Knowledge". The purpose of the article is to determine the theoretical and methodological and practical provisions, innovative approaches to the introduction of disciplines in health care and the basics of medical knowledge in the system of training future staff of higher education institutions. Based on the analysis of literature sources, it was determined that teaching the basics of medical knowledge to students in higher education institutions, allows them to develop knowledge, skills and abilities in health care and first aid in any life situation. Qualitative analysis of empirical data shows that most students of higher education institutions identify problems that are paramount in the information space (socially significant infectious diseases, their detection and elimination and a healthy lifestyle, its characteristics), although the relevant information on some areas of medical knowledge, which are also significant enough for the social environment, was not taught to students. That is why students did not define them as integrative and relevant for their own professional activities. It is interesting, however that, students have a rather superficial understanding of the essence of medical concepts, especially difficult for them is to differentiate the information content of materials, which is manifold and diverse, sometimes unreliable in numerous information sources. Quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the empirical study of this problem allowed us to build a systematic and phased teaching of the discipline "Fundamentals of Medical Knowledge", to reveal the essence and content of theoretical and practical material during lectures and practical classes with students of pedagogical higher education establishments, taking into account new innovative approaches and modern computer technologies. In our opinion, the basic integrated level of ideas and concepts on the basis of medical knowledge is a mandatory element of the professional competence of the modern educator. At the same time, the teacher must be morally and legally responsible for preserving and improving the lives and health of children during their stay in respective schools and out-of-school educational institutions.

The article considers the methodological characteristics of teaching molecular biology at the Department of Biology and methods of its teaching at Kamianets-Podilsky Ivan Ohiienko National University. The educational and methodical support of the discipline is analyzed; features of delivering lectures and tutorials are given; features of the organization of independent work of students are characterized; effective methods of control of student knowledge are defined. Thus, the department has developed an educational and methodological complex of the discipline, which includes the syllabus, lecture notes, plans of tutorials with methodological recommendations for their implementation, tasks for independent work, test tasks and tasks for monitoring and final control. Multimedia support of lectures has been developed, which fully reveal the problematic issues of relevant topics. For effective independent work of students methodical recommendations containing all tasks, including materials for self-control of level of mastering the knowledge by students are provided; a virtual learning environment based on the Moodle learning management system is available. It is stressed that independent work develops efficiency, disciplines, maintains interest in learning. From among modern approaches to teaching the discipline active teaching methods are used, notably video lectures, discussion of problematic issues, methods of group discussion, preparation of speeches on certain topics that contribute to the formation of required students' competencies, public speaking skills, ability to formalize the results, teamwork skills, etc. It is noted that the prospect for further research is the search for effective means of motivating students to study, creation of their own channels of educational nature in social networks, the development of electronic assessories for monitoring students' knowledge.
