High-resolution RCP scenario for the 21st century in the North-West region of Morocco, future projections for 2041-2060, 2061-2080 and 2081-2100
Authors: Hammoudy Wahib , Ilmen Rachid , Sinan Mohamed
Published: May 2023

Climate model simulations of future climate are the basis for adaptation decisions, which the effectiveness will depend on the quality of the models. A set of climate models developed under the CMIP6 project and generated by the spatial bias correction disaggregation method (BCSD) using a statistical downscaling algorithm have been used. These models are used to evaluate the future changes in thermal extremes projected by the climate models over the different time horizons with comparison to the 1981-2000 reference period. These projections are made under the scenario RCP 4.5 (optimistic). The examination of future climate change projections could confirm the result of warming over the entire North West region of Morocco. The increase in temperature could reached an average of 1.8 °C to 2.5 °C just in 2060. In the same sense of warming, the number of hot days and hot nights could increase year by year while a decrease could be noticed in the number of cold days and cold nights. The simulations for the 2080 and 2100 horizons revealed a situation that worsens year by year. The temperature anomaly could reached about 3 °C and more. Thus, a climatic warming may be predicted in the future and generalized over the entire North West region.

Published: May 2023

Maluku waters are dominated by extreme weather conditions with wave heights of 1-5 meters. Purse seine fishingvessel is one type of fishing vessel that has very poor transverse stability. One way to improve the stability of theship is to change the shape of the monohull ship to a ship with a trimaran hull type. This research was focused onexamining the movement characteristics of purse seine fishing vessels with trimaran hull type with Axe-Bowmodification on the bow and without Axe-bow, through computational fluid dynamics. The use of Axe-bow ontrimaran is able to significantly reduce RMS Pitch, which is an average of 13.35% smaller when compared to Trimaranwithout Axe-bow. On the RMS Heave Trimaran Axe-bow can reduce an average of 5.27% if the Trimaran is withoutAxe-bow. Furthermore, the Trimaran Axe-bow is also able to reduce the RMS Roll by an average of 3.98% comparedto the Trimaran without Axe-bow. The results of this study can provide an initial description of the advantages ofusing the Axe-Bow on the Purse seine fishing trimaran ship.

Published: May 2023

The Dolichol kinase (DOLK) gene encodes the polytopic DOLK protein associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) N-glycosylation pathway catalyzing the final step in the biosynthesis of dolichol phosphate. Dolichol phosphate is an oligosaccharide carrier required for N-glycosylation of DOLK protein, with its deficiency leading to a severe hypo glycosylation phenotype in humans which can cause congenital disorders of glycosylation and death in early infancy. The aim of the present study is to identify the phylogenetic relationship between human and ortholog species based on their conserved sequences in DOLK gene. Sequence alignment of DOLK was carried out in this study and the evolutionarily conserved regulatory sequences were identified using bioinformatics. Promoter sequence of human DOLK was compared with orthologous sequences from different organisms. Conserved non-coding sequences (CNS) and motifs in promoter regions were found by analyzing upstream promoter sequences of Homo sapiens DOLK and its orthologous genes in other organisms. Conserved sequences were predicted in the promoter regions in CNS1 and CNS2. Conserved protein sequences were also identified by alignment of the orthologous sequences. Organisms with similar gene sequences are assumed to be closely related and the ER N-glycosylation pathway is conserved in them.

Research on pore structures of fine-grained carbonate reservoirs and their influence on waterflood development
Authors: Yang Chichen , Tang Hongming
Published: May 2023

Carbonate reservoir has complex pore structures. At present, the influence of pore structure on water flooding mechanism of carbonate reservoirs is insufficient. In this article, a systematic workflow was designed in combination with scanning electron microscope, particle size, physical properties, and water flooding experiments to study the effect of pore structure on water flooding mechanism of fine-grained carbonate rocks. Due to the small particle size and strong heterogeneity, the acid fracturing operations, rather than hydraulic fracturing alone, are necessary to achieve increased production and reservoir reconstruction of carbonate reservoirs. Through this study, the mathematical model of reservoir physical parameters (permeability and porosity) was proposed, and the accuracy of the model was verified by comparing the simulated oil recovery with the experimental results. According to the comparison results, the experimental results are consistent with the simulation results, and their oil recovery efficiency is 33.62 and 31.87%, respectively. Finally, the effect of injection rate on oil production was discussed. It is shown that with the increase in injection rate, the output of displaced oil increases significantly. The cumulative oil production increases from 62.5 to 256.31 mL when the injection rate increases from 100 to 400 mL/min. The findings of this study can help for better understanding of the influencing factors and mechanisms of the development efficiency of carbonate reservoirs.
Thermal properties of AlN (nano) filled LDPE composites
Authors: Tripathi Dinesh
Published: May 2023

The thermal properties of aluminium nitride nano-particles (n-AlN) filled into low-density polyethylene (LDPE) are discussed. Cylindrical specimens were prepared using a melt mixing process. X-ray diffraction was performed to characterize the structural properties of the pellets under investigation. The X-ray diffraction analysis confirms the change in secondary structure, such as crystallinity, of the LDPE due to the dispersion of n-AlN powder. The thermal stability of pure and n-AlN filled LDPE was checked by performing thermo-gravimetric analysis. The analysis confirms an improvement in the thermal stability of LDPE due to n-AlN addition. The thermal conductivity of the samples was measured using a KD2 Pro device (based on the transient hot wire technique of thermal conductivity measurement) at room temperature. Our finding reveals ∼1.36 fold enhancement in the effective thermal conductivity of LDPE due to the addition of 15 vol.% of n-AlN. The room-temperature thermal conductivity data of the investigated pellets were analyzed as a function of n-AlN concentration in the light of available theoretical models and correlations. The variation in thermal conductivity data of LDPE with n-AlN concentration is well explained by the semi-empirical model proposed by Agari and Uno.
Cinnamic acids as promising bioactive compounds for cancer therapy by targeting MAPK3: a computational simulation study
Authors: Bayat Zeynab , Tarokhian Aida , Taherkhani Amir
Published: May 2023

Objectives

Mitogen-activated protein kinase-3 (MAPK3) is the upstream regulator in the MAPK cascade and is involved in many critical signaling pathways and biological processes, such as cell proliferation, survival, and apoptosis. MAPK3 overexpression is linked to onset, development, metastasis, and drug resistance in several human cancers. Thus, identifying novel and effective MAPK3 inhibitors is highly demanded. Herein, we aimed to discover organic compounds from cinnamic acid derivatives as potential MAPK3 inhibitors.

Methods

The binding affinity of 20 cinnamic acids to the MAPK3 active site was tested using the AutoDock 4.0 software. Top-ranked cinnamic acids were ranked based on the ΔG
binding values between the ligands and the receptor’s active site. Interaction modes between top-ranked cinnamic acids and MAPK3 catalytic site were indicated using the Discovery Studio Visualizer tool. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was carried out to study the stability of the docked pose for the most potent MAPK3 inhibitor in this study.

Results

Cynarin, chlorogenic acid, rosmarinic acid, caffeic acid 3-glucoside, and cinnamyl caffeate exhibited a salient binding affinity to the MAPK3 active site with the criteria of ΔG
binding <−10 k cal/mol. Further, the inhibition constant value for cynarin was calculated at the picomolar concentration. The docked pose of cynarin within the MAPK3 catalytic domain was stable in 100 ns simulation.

Conclusions

Cynarin, chlorogenic acid, rosmarinic acid, caffeic acid 3-glucoside, and cinnamyl caffeate might be helpful in cancer therapy by inhibiting MAPK3.
Creep-fatigue assessment of martensitic welds based on numerically determined local deformation
Authors: Bender Thorben , Klenk Andreas , Weihe Stefan
Published: May 2023

The low cycle fatigue and creep-fatigue behavior of base material and similar welded joints of martensitic steel Grade 92 were examined in this work. Several low cycle fatigue tests with different loading scenarios: fatigue tests with strain-controlled hold time, fatigue tests with strain-controlled amplitudes, and load-controlled hold times, were performed at 873 K. The tests were evaluated with regard to fatigue lifetime, peak stress, the evolution of relaxation stress or creep strain, and failure location. The effect of amplitude level, hold time modus and hold time length on the lifetime of the specimens was investigated using lifetime and damage assessment methods based on strain energy approaches. The numerical simulations for the determination of the evolution of local strains and stresses were done using a viscoplastic material model of Chaboche type, including a strain energy based damage formulation. For the parameter identification, tests were carried out on the specimens made of base metal, welded joint, weld metal, and with microstructure simulated specimens aiming to obtain representative microstructures of the fine grain, intercritical, and coarse grain heat affected zone. The numerical assessment of the local stress, strain, and damage distribution explains the smaller lifetime of the welded joint specimens.

A semiotic model of South Korea’s cultural industry ecosystem: the K-pop industry
Authors: Jeon Hyeong-Yeon , Oh Jang-Geun , Wang Chi-Hyun , Kim Sangwon
Published: May 2023

We explored the need for an ecosystem approach based on relational systems when conducting research on South Korea’s cultural industry. We used Mollard’s (2009. L’ingeniere culturelle. Paris: PUF) idea of the participants in the French cultural system as a key reference and extended it to the notion of the platform, which is the core concept of South Korea’s cultural industry ecosystem (CIE). We also utilized the idea of the “semiotic square of consumption values” from Floch to explicate each platform and participant, which play a significant role in South Korea’s CIE. By defining a role rooted in the relationship and values for each subject (i.e., the production, consumption, authority, and intermediary subjects), we aimed to better understand the ecosystem of the cultural industry and focused on K-pop as a specific aspect of South Korea’s cultural sector by identifying the current identity of each participant.

A cartografia parece ser mais uma ética (e uma política) do que uma metodologia de pesquisa
Authors: Bedin da Costa Luciano
Published: May 2023

Redigido a partir de uma fala para o evento Deleuze: modos de usar (2020), este ensaio se sustenta a partir da intuição de que a cartografia, tal qual é verificada na obra de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari, mostra-se mais como uma ética e uma política do que uma metodologia de pesquisa propriamente dita. Para isso, toma como campo de análise fragmentos de livros publicados no final dos anos 1970 e início de 1980, em especial Mil Platôs: capitalismo e esquizofrenia e Diálogos, período em que a cartografia aparece pela primeira vez nas obras dos respectivos autores. Embora pesquisadoras e pesquisadores, especialmente no Brasil, tenham assumido a cartografia como um método de investigação, o que se lê em Deleuze e Guattari é uma série de apontamentos em prol do que poderíamos chamar de uma ética cartográfica, aqui sustentada como um lugar de partida, e não de chegada. O ensaio encerra com um poema coletivo produzido pela(o)s participantes do referido evento, finalizando com uma assertiva que sintetiza o que parece ser o movimento de tal ética: “cartografar é alçar voo”.Palavras-chave: Cartografia; Metodologia; Ética. Cartography seems to be more of an ethics than a research methodologyAbstract: Written from a speech for the event Deleuze: ways to use (2020), this essay is based on the intuition that cartography, as ascertained in the works of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, shows itself more as an ethics and a policy than a research methodology itself. To this end it takes, as an analytical field, some fragments of books published in the late 1970s and early 1980s, especially A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia and Dialogues, the period when cartography first appears in the works of these respective authors. Although researchers, mainly in Brazil, have taken cartography as a method of investigation, what is really read in the works of Deleuze and Guattari are various notes defending what we could call a cartographical ethics, here in this article supported as a starting place instead of a finishing line. The essay ends with a collective poem, produced by the participants of that event, ending with an assertion that synthesizes what seems to be the movement of such ethics: “cartography is a taking flight”. Keywords: Cartography; Methodology; Ethics.

Authors: Xu Shiwei , Zhao Qi , Zhang Haiyu , Li Xianghui , Lu Jing , Wang Hongyan , Guo Yuanyuan , Dong Zengxiang
Published: May 2023

Purpose: This study was aimed at evaluating the safety and efficacy of warfarin versus rivaroxaban in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and different CHA2DS2-VASc score subgroups in northern China.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate 387 patients with AF who received treatment at our institution between September 2018 and August 2019. The patients were divided into two groups receiving either warfarin (n=194) or rivaroxaban (n=193). Follow-up data were collected, including adherence, bleeding and ischemic stroke events.

Results: The group receiving rivaroxaban showed better adherence than the group receiving warfarin. In the warfarin-treated group, bleeding incidents declined with increasing scores. In the warfarin-treated group, patients with scores of 2–3 had greater adherence and fewer stroke occurrences. The events of bleeding and stroke did not significantly differ in patients in the rivaroxaban-treated group with different scores.

Conclusions: Compared with patients in the warfarin group with different CHA2DS2-VASc scores, those in the rivaroxaban group had greater compliance, and fewer bleeding and stroke events. Regardless of economic considerations, rivaroxaban is preferable for anticoagulative AF treatment in northern Chinese patients.

COVID took over the world starting in 2020. Everyone quickly “knew” about the novel coronavirus, but how much do they actually know about the virus behind COVID-19? This classroom activity gives students real-world practice in evaluating actual genetic sequences from SARS-CoV-2 and working with genome alignments to identify mutations and cluster different emergence patterns. This activity works through alignments, mutations/variants, protein folding, structure and function, and medical/immunology implications of the different variants. There are seven parts to this activity, and each one can be incorporated alone into a lesson or collectively used for a lab, case study, or other supplemental activity to strengthen learning objectives in genetics, biology, immunology, and public health. This learning activity is scalable to different levels and has successfully been incorporated into K–12 education as well as college and graduate education.
When a Human Gives Birth to a Raven: Rabbis and the Reproduction of Species
Authors: Neis Rafael Rachel
Published: May 2023

This book investigates rabbinic treatises relating to animals, humans, and other life-forms. Through an original analysis of creaturely generation and species classification by late ancient Palestinian rabbis and other thinkers in the Roman Empire, Rafael Rachel Neis shows how rabbis blurred the lines between humans and other beings, even as they were intent on classifying creatures and tracing the contours of what it means to be human. Recognizing that life proliferates by mechanisms beyond sexual copulation between two heterosexual “male” and “female” individuals of the same species, the rabbis proposed intricate alternatives. In parsing a variety of creatures, they considered overlaps and resemblances across seemingly distinct species, upsetting in turn unmitigated claims of human distinctiveness. When a Human Gives Birth to a Raven enters conversations in animal studies, queer theory, trans theory, and feminist science studies to provincialize sacrosanct ideals of reproduction in favor of a broader range that spans generation, kinship, and species. The book thereby offers powerful historical alternatives to the paradigms associated with so-called traditional ideas.

Effects of protective measures were evaluated relative to the compression strength in the direction parallel to the grain of laminated veneer wood (LVL). For this purpose, laminated panels were prepared from Scots pine, Oriental beech, Castanea sativa, and sessile oak wood veneer by gluing them with Desmodur vinyl trie ketonol acetate (D-VTKA), polyvinyl-acetate (PVAc) dispersion D4 adhesive, resorcinol formaldehyde (RF), and melamine formaldehyde (MF). The samples were impregnated with a mixture of wax, linseed oil, and coated with a synthetic-based translucent varnish. The control samples (without the treatment described above), impregnated samples, and varnished samples were kept in the external environment for 1 y and in an ultraviolet (UV) environment for 240 h. The samples were tested to determine the air-dried density, retention amount, and compression strength. The results indicated that, in terms of outdoor conditions, the varnished proceeding provided better protection compared to the impregnated proceeding. The best result for compression strength was obtained on the Oriental beech samples with RF and MF glues. The ratio of the UV environment to represent the external environment was 89%.
Neural heuristics for scaling constructional language processing

Constructionist approaches to language make use of form-meaning pairings, called constructions, to capture all linguistic knowledge that is necessary for comprehending and producing natural language expressions. Language processing consists then in combining the constructions of a grammar in such a way that they solve a given language comprehension or production problem. Finding such an adequate sequence of constructions constitutes a search problem that is combinatorial in nature and becomes intractable as grammars increase in size. In this paper, we introduce a neural methodology for learning heuristics that substantially optimise the search processes involved in constructional language processing. We validate the methodology in a case study for the CLEVR benchmark dataset. We show that our novel methodology outperforms state-of-the-art techniques in terms of size of the search space and time of computation, most markedly in the production direction. The results reported on in this paper have the potential to overcome the major efficiency obstacle that hinders current efforts in learning large-scale construction grammars, thereby contributing to the development of scalable constructional language processing systems.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

To describe differences in practice patterns and outcomes of young preterm versus age-matched term infants evaluated for sepsis, because evaluation and management of this group are not well defined.

METHODS

We conducted a retrospective single-center study at an academic, freestanding children’s hospital of previously healthy preterm and term infants aged 0 to 60 days, who presented for initial evaluation of fever and/or hypothermia from 2014 to 2019. We classified infants by gestational age as preterm (32–36 6/7 weeks) and term (37–42 weeks) and compared diagnostic evaluation, management, and clinical outcomes.

RESULTS

Out of 363 preterm infants evaluated for sepsis, 336 met inclusion criteria; within the same study period, 2331 term infants were evaluated for sepsis, of which 600 were randomly selected and 554 were included. Clinicians performed inflammatory marker testing and chest x-rays more frequently in preterm infants 31% vs 25% (P = .034) and 50% vs 32% (P < .001), respectively. Preterm infants had a higher rate of bacteremia 5.9% vs 2.5% (P = .035), were hospitalized more frequently 72% vs 63% (P = .006), and required ICU level of care more often 32% vs 5% (P < .001) than term infants. They had lower rates of viral infections 33% vs 42% (P = .015) and no significant increased return visits. Febrile preterm and term infants, and older hypothermic preterm infants had relatively higher rates of serious bacterial infections. Hypothermic preterm infants had the longest hospitalizations.

CONCLUSIONS

Preterm infants had increased rates of bacteremia and required higher level of care compared with age-matched term infants, likely reflecting their increased risk for sepsis and other concomitant morbidities associated with preterm birth.

The environment in Islamic boarding schools makes students feel closer to their peers. When students have closeness with peers, they will feel good emotional attachment and affect their self-esteem. This study aims to determine the effect of peer-attachment on students' self-esteem. This study used a correlational quantitative approach. The participants were 174 students aged 12-19 years from Islamic boarding schools in the city of Palembang, obtained through a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis used a simple linear regression technique. This study found that peer-attachment affects self-esteem by ∆R2 = 3.96%. Therefore, teachers and pesantren authorities must pay attention to peer attachment to increase self-esteem among students, because good peer attachment will increase students' self-esteem. The results show a significant positive effect and emphasize that students who have attachment to peers can have a more positive self-assessment.

Object Recognition by Components and Relations between Them
Authors: Slivnitsin Pavel , Mylnikov Leonid
Published: May 2023

The paper’s goal is to develop a methodology and algorithm for the recognition of objects in the environment, keeping the quality with an increasing number of objects. For this purpose, the following problems were solved: recognition of the shape features, estimation of relations between features, and matching between the found features and relations and the defined templates (descriptions of complex and simple objects of the real world). A convolutional neural network is used for the shape feature recognition. In order to train it we used artificially generated images with shape features (3D primitive objects) that were randomly placed on the scene with different properties of their surfaces. The set of relations necessary to recognize objects, which can be represented as a combination of shape features, is formed. Testing on photos of real-world objects showed the ability to recognize real-world objects regardless of their type (in cases where different models and modifications are possible). This paper considers an example of outdoor luminaire recognition. The example shows the algorithm's ability not only to detect an object in the image but also to estimate the position of its components. This solution makes it possible to use the algorithm in the task of object manipulation performed by robotic systems.
Religious Education Based on Local Wisdom “Satu Tungku Tiga Batu” in Fakfak Community West Papua
Authors: Nur Indria
Published: May 2023

This article examines one of the strategic efforts to prevent the spread of ideology of radicalism and terrorism, even conflict through  religious education based on local cultural values as an effort to instill tolerant citizenship attitudes and uphold religious, national and state identities so that they remain inherent among the younger generation. Based on the result of the phenomenological qualitative research as well as interview data and observation  on the indigenous peoples of Fakfak regency of west Papua, the local wisdom of “Satu Tungku Tiga Batu” in the multi etnic and multi religious Fakfak indigenous communities is able to internalize its cultural values into cohesive and reflecting values in the character of its strong citizens. Local wisdom “Satu Tungku Tiga Batu” in  addition to functioning to maintain harmony and brotherhood, the concept of a three stone furnace also functions as a fakfak community identity that has a tolerant attitude, prioritizes the public  interest rather than personal interest, honestly, does not like to interfere in the affairs of others and love one another. Local wisdom based religious education is presented not only in school educational, but also in family and community settings. This is evident from the existence of the people of Fakfak of west Papua who are very tolerant of one another, so that harmony in religious and social life is maintained, even interethnic and interfaith conflicts can be said to never occur.
