Characteristics of carbon reinforced concrete Single-sided short time textile pull-out (SPO) Experiments
Authors: Amer Zuhair Mansour
Published: July 2022

Carbon reinforced concrete (CRC) is an innovative alternative to steel reinforced concrete. More and more buildings are being constructed or renewed and strengthened with CRC. Carbon reinforced concrete development is associated with long-term growth in many industries. In addition to the construction industry, the chemical, mechanical engineering and textile industries in particular benefit from the widespread impact. When carbon reinforced concrete is used in the field of repair and strengthening, it increases the bearing elements’ capacities without notable increasing the element’s thickness, therefore it does not lead to an increase in the weight of the structure, nor to a change in its original size or shape. The increasing use of carbon reinforced concrete mainly requires knowledge of its constituent materials’ properties in addition to the behavior of the composite, especially under tensile stress, including the bond between fibres and concrete. Detailed knowledge is particularly required in low concrete age is required if the element strengthened with CRC is to be loaded again as soon as possible. The data available on this is still comparatively incomplete. So, it is often necessary to rely on experiment to determine these properties. Within the framework of this research, tests were performed on carbon concrete with ages of four, five, seven and ten days to determine the bond properties of CRC under tensile stress. The test results were then evaluated and interpreted, then we finally present the resultant material properties of textile concrete used at a young age. As expected, the force corresponding to the slip value of 1.5 mm increases with increasing age of the sample and is expected to reach the value 5552 N at the age of 28 days. In addition, with the increase in the sample age, the value of the spacing between cracks decreases and the value of the coherence field length decreases as well. In this case, the behavior of carbon-reinforced concrete is similar to that of steel-reinforced concrete.

Authors: Geller A. Ya.
Published: July 2022

The article points out the problem of quality of interaction between the customer and the supplier of goods, works or services in the sphere of state and municipal public procurement procedures of Russian Federation. One of the manifestations of the problem is the high percentage of contract termination between procurement participants (approximately 20 % of the number of contracts concluded). The objective of the study was to suggest potential directions for improving the quality of interaction between procurement participants, against the background of considering the legal grounds for contracts termination. Based on the results of the study, the author identified the problem of lack of technics in the procurement control process, which reduce consequences of the uncertainty external environment impact and fair risk responsibility sharing of non-performing contract liabilities between the procurement participants.

Published: July 2022

The targeted degradation of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) by heterobifunctional degraders constitutes a promising approach to treat HDAC6-driven diseases. Previous HDAC6 selective degraders utilised a hydroxamic acid as a zinc-binding group (ZBG) which features mutagenic and genotoxic potential. Here we report the development of a new class of selective HDAC6 degraders based on a difluoromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (DFMO) warhead as ZBG.

Total-energy and electronic structure calculations based on density-functional theory are performed in order to determine the atomic structure and electronic properties of Al0.5In0.5P(001) surfaces. It is found that most of the stable surfaces obey the electron counting rule and are characterized by surface atom dimerization. The dimer related surface states are predicted to occur in the vicinity of the bulk band edges. For a very narrow range of preparation conditions, ab initio thermodynamics predicts metal atomic wires formed by surface cations. In case of typical metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy growth conditions, a surface covered with a monolayer of buckled phosphorus dimers, where half of the phosphorus atoms are hydrogen-saturated, is found to be stable. The occurrence of this structure is confirmed by low energy electron diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data measured on epitaxially grown Al0.52In0.48P(001) epilayers lattice matched to GaAs.
Controlling superselectivity of multivalent interactions with cofactors and competitors
Authors: Curk Tine , Dubacheva Galina V. , Brisson Alain R. , Richter Ralf P.
Published: July 2022

Moieties that compete with multivalent interactions or act as cofactors are common in living systems, but their effect on multivalent binding remains poorly understood. We derive a theoretical model that shows how the superselectivity of multivalent interactions is modulated by the presence of cofactors or competitors. We find that the role of these participating moieties can be fully captured by a simple rescaling of the affinity constant of the individual ligand-receptor bonds. Theoretical predictions are supported by experimental data of the membrane repair protein annexin A5 binding to anionic lipid membranes in the presence of Ca2+ cofactors, and of the extracellular matrix polysaccharide hyaluronan (HA) binding to CD44 cell surface receptors in the presence of HA oligosaccharide competitors. The obtained findings should facilitate understanding of multivalent recognition in biological systems and open new routes for fine-tuning the selectivity of multivalent nanoprobes in medicinal chemistry.

The practice of protecting the World Heritage site “Plitvice Lakes” National Park is considered. The criteria for its inscription in the World Heritage List are revealed. Attention is drawn to the main problems related to the legal and organizational protection of the object. The main content of the conclusions of the decisions of the World Heritage Committee on the protection of the “Plitvice Lakes” National Park is revealed. Parallels are drawn with the main threats to the ecological state of Lake Baikal. One of the acute and underestimated threats is the preservation of authentic Baikal landscapes. Given the insufficiency of the provisions of domestic legislation to achieve these goals, the conclusion is drawn about the possibility of using the provisions of the Convention on the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage to prevent the construction of objects that clearly violate the existing landscape within the boundaries of the World Heritage site. The conclusion is drawn about the expediency of the Russian Federation’s consent to be bound by the European Landscape Convention in order to develop domestic legislation on the protection of landscapes. The practice of consolidating the management of the World Heritage site Plitvice National Park in the hands of a legal entity of the same name receives a positive assessment. It is proposed to consider the possibility of securing the sui generis regime of a specially protected natural territory for the Central Ecological Zone of the Baikal Natural Territory. Such a decision will create a single administration responsible for the management of Lake Baikal as a World Heritage Site. The next step should be the development of a World Heritage site management plan in accordance with the recommendations of IUCN and the World Heritage Committee. Such a plan may include a strategy for the development of special economic zones, issues of elimination accumulated environmental damage and regulation of tourist flows.
Certain issues of qualifying petty theft committed repeatedly (article 7.27 of the Code of Administrative offenses of the Russian federation and article 158.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation)
Authors:   East Siberian Institute of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, Smirnova K. V.
Published: July 2022

Based on a comprehensive analysis of the norms provided for by Art. 7.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation and Art. 158.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, it was concluded that the legal regulation of liability for petty theft contains a number of fundamental theoretical errors. In particular, it is noted that the legislator, in the interests of preventing crimes against property, ignores the social danger of acts. It is concluded that the basis of criminal liability, contrary to the requirements of Part 1 of Art. 1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is specified in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. Objective signs of petty theft are subjected to a detailed analysis. Measures are proposed to optimize the legal regulation of liability for petty theft committed repeatedly.
Certain issues of expenditure obligations in the Russian federation: legal aspects
Authors:   Baikal State University, Khaitov G. A.
Published: July 2022

The definition of the concept of “budget expenditures” fixed in the Russian legislation does not allow to accurately establish its essence and important features. A deeper understanding of the budget expenditures has both theoretical and practical importance. The article treats “expenditure obligation” as one of the essential elements of the activities of government bodies related to budget expenditures, which characterizes the basis of budget expenditures. The emphasis in the study is made on the consideration of laws and other regulatory legal acts as the basis of expenditure obligations, because Budget Code of the Russian Federation does not make possible to determine what clauses a law or other regulatory legal act should provide in order to create a new expenditure obligation. The article presents the examples of such a difficulty raised by insufficient legal regulation. In particular, there are issues in adoption of laws or other regulatory acts which provide for the budget expenditures taking proper account of the delimitation of powers between the Russian Federation, the subjects of the Russian Federation and municipalities. Issues of budget expenditures aimed to fund the powers transferred from another authority are also illustrated. Based on the results of the study, the article proposes a discussion on the requirements the laws and other regulatory legal acts providing for budget expenditures should meet. The author also suggests to discuss the necessity to legalize the de facto provisions for budget expenditures in regulatory legal acts of a higher level.

Published: July 2022

The article is dedicated to the wide circle of questions, connected with the state registration procedure foreseen for a number of contracts by the law. The registration objects’ pluralism and registrating bodies’ diversity are pointed to. The rule of p. 3 art. 433 Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a plenty of changes in the civil legislation in the connection with the registrating procedure in a contracts are comprehended. Particular attention is made to the consequences of registrating demand’s infringement for different registrating objects (obligatory and disposal contracts, contract’s consequences). Regulations of contemporary law, various it’s changings during the last years, existing mistakes and demerits are under analyzing. Author’s point of view to the comprehension and using the rule of p. 3 art. 433 CC RF and some other rules is formulated. A number of conclusions (for example, about the separate effect of the p. 3 art. 433 CC RF’s rule for contract’s participants and for third persons, about the fiction of contract’s registration for it’s participants) is made and argued. Made conclusions are scrutinizing on the examples of various contracts, in which the registrating procedure is used. They are obligatory contracts (selling immovable property and business, leasing immovable property, building, construction, business) and disposal ones (mortgage, cession, novation of a debt, transference an immovable property object in the confidential managing property contract, giving a right in the commercial concession and licence contracts). Besides the Civil Code’s regulations special legislation touching upon questions of rights and bargains’ registration is used.

Authors:   Irkutsk State University, Georgievskiy E. V., , Kravtsov R. V. ,   Irkutsk State University
Published: July 2022

The paper attempts a comprehensive analysis of the most significant and well-known acts of some foreign countries containing norms of a criminal law nature relating to provisions on mediocre infliction and the institution of incitement, which is very similar in meaning. The analysis chronologically includes the period from ancient times and the early Middle Ages to modern times. The basic conclusions confirm the fact that criminal liability for mediocre infliction from a social and legal point of view was heterogeneous - from an aggravating circumstance to mitigating repression due to the “non-independence” of the role of the person involved.

Authors: Vyhivska I.M. , Barchak T.P. , Bakalovych I.P.
Published: July 2022

In order to promote the transparency, completeness and relevance of accounting and reporting information, the article presents proposals for the development of analytical support for the Management Report. It is recommended to analyze the Management Report in the following stages: disclosure of information on financial results; analysis of liquidity and liabilities; disclosure of information on environmental aspects of activities; disclosure of information on social aspects and personnel policy; study of the prospects for the development of enterprises; analysis of the state of corporate governance. Approbation of the proposed approach made it possible to identify differences and similar aspects of generating reports on the management of electricity distribution enterprises. In particular, it was found that there is no unified approach to the use of liquidity and liabilities indicators, therefore it is recommended to use absolute liquidity indicators and coverage ratio. The environmental aspects of companies’ activities have been identified and an insufficient level of disclosure of relevant information in the management reports of electricity distribution enterprises has been established. Research in the reports of personnel policy and social issues allowed establishing equal career opportunities for all categories of personnel, timely training and professional development of the operational needs of the company. It was found that the prospects for the development of all studied enterprises are efficient use of resources and reducing the impact on the environment, increasing industrial safety and timely renewal of electrical networks and equipment.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the reproducibility of the medicine ball explosive power test to assess explosive power in young volleyball players. Materials and methods. Data were collected using twelve volleyball players (age = 16.5 ± 0.52 years; body mass = 72.05 ± 7.9 kg; height = 182 ± 0.06 cm and body mass index = 21.63 ± 1.85) volunteered for this study. They completed a test and retest of the medicine ball explosive power test on two separate days. The medicine ball explosive power test was conducted using a 3 kg medicine ball. Testing was carried out in two separated testing session preceded by a standardized warming up protocol. The paired-sample t-test was conducted to determine the differences signification observed between the test and the retest of the medicine-ball explosive power test. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC1,1) aims to assess relative reliability of the test. The coefficient of variation between test and retest performance was used to check the absolute reproducibility. The Bland and Altman method was used to evaluate the relative and absolute reproducibility of the medicine ball explosive power test. Results and discussion. Explosive power is often considered as one of the main determinants of a successful high-level performance in many team sports including volleyball. It is frequently measured in different occasion during competitive season using field‐based tests. Thus, it is mandatory that strength and conditioning coaches have to use valid and reliable tests to evaluate the power for their athletes. However, contestation regarding test selection still exists grounded upon the particularity of the explosive power evaluation tests in volleyball. There was no significant difference between medicine ball explosive power test (11.08 ± 0.72 meter) and retest (11.27 ± 0.93 meter) performance. The T-paired Sample test did not show any statistically significant difference (t= 1.035; p =0.393), while the intraclass correlation coefficient aimed to assess relative reliability of the test was of 0.83. The coefficient of variation between test and retest performance was of 5.7% which is near to the 5% confidence interval level. The intraclass correlation coefficient was situated between 0.9 and 0.8 (ICC1,1 = 0.83) Thus this study suggests that the medicine ball explosive power test has moderate relative reliability level. Conclusion. The medicine ball explosive power test is reliable regardless to the age. The Bland and Altman method confirmed our finding suggesting the medicine ball explosive power test is a reliable test
A Non-‘Sextarian’ Lebanon. (c2021)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, Fournouzlian Sandra
Published: July 2022

Sectarianism has long been the main form of identity in Lebanon, with allegiance to the sect more prominent than allegiance to the state. However, in recent years, Lebanon has been witnessing the emergence of alternative identities contesting the dominant sectarian identity, namely by LGBTQ and feminist groups. In addition to their work as part of civil society advocating for women’s and gay rights, the October 2019 revolution was an opportunity for LGBTQ and feminist activists to move themselves and their voices from the margins to center stage. This thesis aims to highlight the emergence and mobilization of these groups to identify which strategies work best to mobilize and politicize alternative identities at the expense of the dominant sectarian ones. An analysis of interviews with LGBTQ and feminist activists alongside the existing literature explains how anti- or cross-sectarian minority groups were able to emerge in spite of the sectarian system’s complex ensemble of discursive, institutional and political economic practices obviating the emergence of such alternative identities. The thesis also compares the utility of different strategies deployed by examining the activism of groups advocating for LGBTQ and feminist rights in Lebanon before and during the outbreak of the October 2019 revolution.
The Impact of Ethical Leadership, Commitment, & Health and Safe Workplace Practices toward Employee Attitude to Covid-19 Vaccination/Implantation in the Banking Sector in Lebanon. (c2021)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, Kabbani Samira
Published: July 2022

This study investigates the effect of ethical leadership, commitment, health and safe workplace practices toward employee Covid-19 vaccination. In addition, this study examines the perception of employees from technological intrusive vaccination of chips or quantum dot. In our research, we adopted the social exchange theory as its theoretical framework. Moreover, an online questionnaire was distributed to employees working in the banking sector in Lebanon during Covid-19 pandemic. In total, 244 bankers completed the survey. Data were analyzed by SPSS statistical software version 26 and SmartPLS to test the relationship between the variables. The results generated showed a positive relationship between ethical leadership, commitment, and safety influencing employees to accept vaccination but not necessarily technological intrusive vaccination (chip or quantum dot). We suggest that organizations should influence leaders to enhance proper behaviors and attitudes to create a healthy, safe, and ethical culture that consequently increases employees’ commitment. Finally, this study recommends future researchers to investigate the topic of Covid-19 vaccination and test other employees’ perception from different industries and countries.
Aflatoxin B1 in Rice Marketed in Lebanon. (c2021)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, Kordahi Rita
Published: July 2022

Rice is one of the world’s most staple food products. Being cultivated in subtropical and tropical hot and humid areas, A. flavus, A. parasiticus, and A. nomius fungi can contaminate rice and produce mycotoxins including the highly hepatotoxic and carcinogenic aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). Our study aimed to evaluate the AFB1 levels in packed rice marketed in Lebanon and determine the exposure to this toxin from the rice consumption. A total of 105 packed white, parboiled and brown rice bags were collected, among which 86 were from 43 brands collected during fall and spring. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was used to measure AFB1. A comprehensive food frequency questionnaire was filled by 200 participants to determine the patterns of rice consumption and subsequently the exposure levels to AFB1 from the rice consumption in Lebanon. AFB1 was detected in 105 out of 105 (100%) of the rice samples. The average concentration ± standard deviation of AFB1 was 0.5 ± 0.3 μg/kg. Contamination ranged between 0.06 and 2.08 μg/kg. Moisture content in all rice samples was below the limit (14%). Only 1% of the samples had an AFB1 level above the EU limit (2 μg/kg). Brown rice had a significantly higher AFB1 level than white and parboiled rice (p= 0.02), while a significant difference was found between both collections for the same brands (p= 0.016). Packing season, packing country, country of origin, presence of a food safety management certification, grain size, and time between packing and purchasing had no significant effect on AFB1 in rice. Exposure to AFB1 from rice consumption in Lebanon was calculated as 0.1-2 ng/kg bodyweight/day, resulting in 0.05-1.7 additional cancer cases/1,000,000 persons/year. Future studies should assess AFB1 in unpacked rice and routine monitoring must be carried out to take into account smuggled and emerging brands in the Lebanese market.
Convergence of External and Internal Consociational Engineering. (c2021)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, El Hajjar Rachid
Published: July 2022

Lebanon’s experience with consociationalism predates the creation of the modern state in 1920. A number of consociational arrangements were negotiated to manage the politics of the new state. The most prominent among these was the National Pact of 1943 that lasted for around 30 years, until it collapsed in 1975 under the weight of overlapping domestic and external pressures. The aim of this thesis is not to revisit the reasons for the success or failure of consociationalism in Lebanon, rather to focus on one particular aspect: namely, the politics of consociational engineering. More specifically, this thesis aims at tracing the evolution of consociational agreements in Lebanon by undertaking a systemic comparative analysis of the main constitutional reforms proposed in successive rounds of negotiations and documents starting in the Geneva national dialogue, the Lausanne national dialogue, the Tripartite agreement, the Hariri paper, and culminating in the 1989 Taif agreement. An analysis of the proposed documents complemented by interviews with key participants allows us to recreate Lebanon’s late Prime Minister Rafik Hariri’s crucial role and political philosophy throughout this process of consociational engineering.
The asymmetry of memory and memories in fiction: narratological aspect
Authors: Veshchykova Olena
Published: July 2022

The relevance of the article lies in the theoretical generalization of philosophical, aesthetic, and narratological approaches to the explication of the phenomenon of a narrator’s and a character’s individual memory, namely the interaction of memorization, forgetting, and memories as necessary components of an entire cognitive process. The subject of the research is the asymmetry of memory and memories in the homodiegetic narrative. The methodology of analysis is based on the works of A. Assman, Aristotle, M. Bal, Ya. Bystrov, A. Erll, B. Neumann, A. Nünning, W. Randall, and other scholars, postclassical narratologists. Three main approaches to the concept of memory in modern narratology are considered: 1) “memory of literature”; 2) “mimesis of memory”; 3) literature as a mediator of collective memory. The main focus of the article is on the “mimesis of memory”. The purpose of the research is to represent Ruth Ware’s “In a Dark Dark Wood” and Paula Hawkins’s “Into the Water” novels as a narrative explication of the cognitive phenomenon of memory.

An analysis of the novels selected as the object of the study suggests that any first-person narrator is unreliable, especially a traumatized one who builds a story on his or her own memories. This is due to the narrator’s subjective assessment of the events described, where there is a significant time distance between the events and the moment of their fixation, and the narrator’s attempt to transform memories, namely to modify events and believe in this new version. Narrative staging of memorization and forgetting is achieved through the subjectivity of the story of homodiegetic narrators, the presence of two or more time planes, different versions of events, analepsis techniques, etc. The discordance of the memories shown by the narrators with real events is the characteristic of the mechanisms of memory and the factor that significantly affects the development of the plot in the novels. The novelty of the study is the application of a cognitive approach to the analysis of homodiegetic mnemonic narrative. The results of the research have perspectives for further analysis of individual works, which are an artistic presentation of the interaction of memory and memories.

Published: July 2022

Using a mixed-method approach, this study examines the pragmatic functions of the discourse marker walak and its variants in Spoken Jordanian Arabic. It also explores the differences in the use of this discourse marker according to the speakers’ gender. The data was collected from a sample of 200 native speakers of Jordanian Arabic, using informal interviews and a validation questionnaire. The results showed that walak and its variants perform six language functions: warning, insulting, addressing/vocative, endearment, threatening, and denial.  As far as gender differences are concerned, the findings indicated that there were statistically significant differences between males and females in the use of walak and its variants in favour of males. This indicates that males agreed more with the sentences expressing each pragmatic function in the validation questionnaire. The study concludes with some pedagogical implications for learners of Arabic as a second language, teachers and syllabus designers.

The development of Java tea extract-based functional drink as a new concept of “Jamu” drink has been carried out since 2006. However, there was no consumer preference survey, hence this study was conducted. This research aimed to identify the factors that influence consumer preferences on buying “Jamu” specify the intensity of sensory attributes of ideal “Jamu” accordingly in the Bogor area. This would allow pursuing the final target to determine the consumer acceptance towards concentrate Java tea extract-based functional drink as a Jamu. A chi-square analysis was performed to determine the relationship between the respondent’s demographic factors and consumer preferences for Jamu. The demographic factors showed a significant association with consumer preferences for Jamu at a significance level of 5 %. Each demographic factor had a different influence on consumer preferences. The intensity of the sensory attributes of concentrated Java tea extract-based functional drinks was significantly incompatible with an ideal Jamu, according to Wilcoxon test results. This result showed that consumers did not consider the developed concentrate having Jamu criteria sensorically. The intensity of sweetness and astringency that met the consumer preference, orange aroma, and freshness attribute at high intensity, plus the unpleasant sensory characteristics of Jamu which could not be detected in the product might provide the product’s strengths that make the developed product potentially acceptable by market.
