The current study deals with the soaked wool fabrics were dyed with natural dyes extracted from the bark of Symplocos racemosa. The optimization was carried out for the different variables; concentration of dyematerial, time for extraction of dye, dyeing time, concentration of mordants methodsof mordanting. Out of the three methods of mordanting, the best shades for dye was obtained using pre-mordanting with lemon juice and vinegar andpost-mordanting with aqueous leaves extract of Rhus parviflora and aqueous leaves extract of Erythrina suberosa . The colour fastness tests indicated that all samples change in colour on exposure to light. The light coloured samples were affected more rapidly as compared to the dark ones. The Lodh bark dyed samples exhibited fairly excellent fastness to light and the results of washing fastness tests showed that dyed samples had good to excellent fastness to washing.

Published: August 2023

The quality problem of surgical threads is discussed with account of their handling properties. With this aim, the mechanical characteristics of surgical threads based on natural (silk) and synthetic (polyamide, polyethylene terephthalate) fibres have been studied prior and after modification by inert in biological respect polymer coatings. The practical recommendations to estimation and controlling of handling properties of surgical threads have been proposed. The generalized deformational criteria have been proposed concerning bending stiffness, the force needed to form a node and relaxation rate of the deformed thread after unloading. These characteristics are the functions of elasticity modulus, viscosity, plasticity, hardness and friction coefficient of thread’s material, which may be measured by the standard mechanical tests. It’s shown that along with improved compatibility with biotissues soft coatings made of bioinert low-modular polymers are also capable of optimising handling parameters of threads.

Sweet Rice and Postcolonialism: Uncovering the Layers of Identity, Cultural Hybridity, and Self-independence in Amir Hussain's Short Story
Authors: Hamza Ahsan , Touseef Muhammad , Sulman Muhammad
Published: August 2023

Amir Hussain's stories challenge dominant narratives and explore postcolonial identity. His recipe for sweet rice offers insights into cultural assimilation and the importance of self-discovery. We applied a postcolonial approach whichseek to develop their literary voices in regions once described in colonialism as “primitive” or “savage”. They explore themes of self-independence and cultural displacement, offering critiques of colonialism and its ongoing effects on individual agency and identity. Objectives of this paper include a systematic analysis of the story to unwrap the elements of identity crisis in Amir Hussain's literary work. Identity in postcolonial concepts is complicated, linked to the “other” and difficult to define. Sweet Rice portrays the struggle and identity crisis faced by immigrants, and the suppression of indigenous culture and knowledge by colonialism. Displacement leads to identity fluidity, nostalgia, and reinvention as a means of reclaiming agency and autonomy. Study methodology includes the thematic analysis of the story with an outlook of postcolonial approach. We concluded that Shireen's "Sweet Rice" story shows the challenges of cultural identity and displacement in a globalized world. The journey this character underscores the intricate nature of upholding customary beliefs and self-sufficiency. It instills confidence and authority within oneself. Honoring cultural heritage while chasing after personal interests can result in a fulfilling existence.

Fortes chuvas ocasionam o aumento na presença de partículas nas águas fluviais, o que dificulta o tratamento, sendo necessário um ajuste fino no quantitativo de sulfato de alumínio e sulfato férrico no processo tratativo. Frente a isso, o objetivo desse trabalho consistiu em desenvolver um ensaio físico-químico de floculação em uma amostra crítica. Para tal foi utilizado um aparelho com simulações simultâneas de floculação, permitindo a variação de dosagem. Então aplicou-se 0,035 mL/L na priemira cubeta, e foi adicionado 0,005 mL/L a cada cubeta, até chegar na sexta cubeta, com uma dosagem de 0,060 mL/L. Após os processos de simulação observou-se que todas as cubetas tiveram uma redução na turbidez, pH e cor, quando comparadas a amostra crítica bruta, que possuía valores de 241,00 NTU, 6,7 e 255,0 uH, respectivamente. A cubeta que apresentou melhor qualidade de floculação foi a 04, que recebeu 0,050 mL/L, e obteve turbidez de 8,05 NTU, pH de 4,1 e cor de 24,6 uH. Logo concluiu-se que seriam necessários 116 mL/10s de solução de sulfato para um tratamento efetivo nessa situação estudada com amostra crítica de água após tempestade.

A Terapia Floral fundamenta-se em um paradigma holístico, onde a divisão cartesiana entre corpo e mente é superada por um modelo que integra esses dois elementos, numa dimensão em que a mente assume grande importância. Ela considera a emoção positiva como essencial para se estabelecer a saúde, e o estado negativo no sentido de estimular doenças. Edward Bach foi pioneiro no uso das essências florais. No Brasil, o Sistema Florais de Saint Germain foi criado por Neide Margonari, em 1996. A publicação da Organização Pan-Americana da Saúde de 25 de novembro de 2021 destaca o efeito devastador da pandemia da COVID-19 sobre a saúde mental e o bem-estar das populações das Américas. A presente pesquisa objetivou identificar quais as essências florais mais comercializadas no período de janeiro a setembro de 2020 em farmácias homeopáticas no município de João Pessoa/PB, correlacionando-os com os sintomas emocionais decorrentes da pandemia. Apenas o Sistema Floral de Bach e o Sistema Florais de Saint Germain foram citados nesse estudo. Os resultados mostraram que a partir de março de 2020 apenas uma das farmácias estudadas registrou aumento nas vendas das essências florais do sistema de Bach, enquanto a outra praticamente manteve o fluxo de vendas desse produto. Constatou-se que as fórmulas florais mais vendidas estavam ligadas a aspectos emocionais e/ou psíquicos fortemente presentes no período pandêmico. Com relação ao Sistema |Saint Germain foram referidas cinco diferentes fórmulas e dos florais de Bach, além da fórmula Rescue, houve aumento da comercialização das essências Aspen, Impatiens, Cherry Plum, Olive, Star of Bethlehem, Walnut, White Chestnut e Holly. Esse aumento foi mais expressivo a partir de junho de 2020, podendo estar relacionada ao momento da pandemia, onde os sintomas decorrentes do isolamento social passaram a se expressar de forma mais clara e intensa.

El partido comunista de Cuba en el análisis de la nueva constitución.
Authors: Guach Estévez Jorge Luís
Published: August 2023

El papel de los partidos comunistas, obreros o progresistas en la conducción de los proyectos socialistas conocidos, ha sido uno de los temas menos tratados en las ciencias sociales contemporáneas desde la época de Lenin y Rosa Luxemburgo; menos aún su relación orgánica con el ordenamiento constitucional y las asimetrías que se crean entre su protagonismo asumido y el poder soberano del pueblo a partir de los principios republicanos de la democracia. El objeto del presente ensayo es valorar la manifestación de los temas anteriores en la realidad cubana y las vías para su perfeccionamiento desde un tratamiento multidimensional de la cultura del poder socialista. La metodología cualitativa utilizada privilegia la triangulación de diferentes fuentes presentes en la academia y las redes sociales que se han ocupado del asunto a propósito del debate nacional sobre el contenido de la nueva Constitución Socialista aprobada en el 2019. Ello ha permitido contextualizar el problema científico en sus diversas aristas así como las manifestaciones de su funcionamiento en la realidad política del país, sus realizaciones positivas  y asimetrías. Se concluye que son fragmentados y con importantes omisiones los estudios sobre el tema, las prácticas estereotipadas que se han heredado por tradición, sobre el papel de los partidos comunistas en las sociedades y la necesidad de realizar verdaderos ejercicios científicos que permitan el perfeccionamiento del sistema de dirección política del partido, sin dogmas extemporáneos ni visiones fosilizadas que impidan el desarrollo de una nueva cultura del poder cada vez más democrática y de esencia popular.

Published: August 2023

Abstract. Natural gas hydrate (GH) is a significant potential energy source due to its large reserves, wide distribution, high energy density and low pollution. However, the gas production rate of past gas hydrate production tests is much lower than the requirement of commercial gas production. Reservoir stimulation technologies like hydraulic fracture provide one potential approach to enhance gas production from GH. The reservoir reformation behaviour of the hydrate-bearing sediments (HBS), particularly sediments with a high clay content, is a complex process during a hydraulic fracturing operation, which has been poorly understood and thus hardly predictable. This paper presents an experimental facility that was developed to analyze the hydraulic fracture mechanism in synthesized HBS. This facility can be used to form GH in sediments, conduct visual observation of hydraulic fracturing experiments, and measure the permeability of HBS under high pressure (up to 30 MPa) and low-temperature conditions (from 253.15 K to 323.15 K). It is mainly composed of a pressure control and injection unit, a low temperature and cooling unit, a cavitation unit, a visual sapphire reactor, and a data acquisition and measurement unit. The hydraulic fracture module is consisting of a gas cylinder, fracturing pump, hopper, proppants warehouse and valves. The sapphire reservoir chamber is applied to observe and measure the fracture of HBS during hydraulic fracturing. The permeability test module is composed of a constant-flux pump and pressure sensors, which can evaluate the permeability performance before and after hydraulic fracture in HBS. The fundamental principles of this apparatus are discussed. Some tests were performed to verify hydraulic fracture tests and permeability tests could be practically applied in the HBS exploitation.
A Network Approach for Multiscale Catchment Classification using Traits
Authors: Ciulla Fabio , Varadharajan Charuleka
Published: August 2023

Abstract. The classification of river catchments into groups with similar characteristics addresses the challenges posed by each location's unique properties to better understand and predict hydrological behaviors. The recent increasing availability of remote sensing and other large-scale geospatial datasets have enabled the use of advanced data-driven approaches to classify catchments using traits such as topography, geology, climate, land cover, land use, and human influence. Unsupervised clustering algorithms based on the Euclidean distance are commonly used for trait-based classification, but are subject to degradation when applied to high dimensional data. In this study we present a new network-based method for multi-scale catchment classification, which can be applied to large datasets and used to determine the traits associated with different catchment groups. In this framework two networks are analyzed in parallel; the first where the nodes are traits, and the second where the nodes are catchments. In both cases edges represent pairwise similarity and a network cluster detection algorithm is used for the classification. The traits network is used to investigate redundancy in the trait data and to condense this information into a small number of interpretable categories. The catchments network is used to classify the catchments into clusters, and to identify representative catchments for the different groups using the degree centrality metric. We apply this method to classify 9067 river catchments across the contiguous United States at both regional and continental scales using 274 non-categorical traits. At the continental scale we identify 25 interpretable categories of traits (e.g., developed areas, temperature, croplands) and 34 catchment clusters of size greater than 50. We find that catchments with similar trait categories are geographically coherent, with different spatial patterns emerging among the clusters that are dominated by natural and anthropogenic traits. We also find that the catchment clusters exhibit distinct hydrological behavior based on an analysis of streamflow indices. This network approach provides several advantages over traditional means of classification including the use of alternate similarity metrics that are more suitable for high dimensional data and providing interpretability with trait categories that reduce redundancies in the trait information. The paired catchment-trait networks enables analysis of hydrological behavior using the dominant trait categories for each catchment cluster. The approach can be used at multiple spatial scales, since the network topologies adjust automatically to reflect the trait patterns at the scale of investigation. Finally, the representative catchments identified as hub nodes in the network can be used to guide transferable observational and modeling strategies. The method is broadly applicable beyond hydrology for classification of other complex systems that utilize different types of trait datasets.

Abstract. Aviation aims to reduce its climate effect by adopting trajectories that avoid regions of the atmosphere where aviation emissions have a large impact. To that end, prototype algorithmic climate change functions (aCCFs) can be used, which provide spatially and temporally resolved information on aviation's climate effect in terms of future near-surface temperature change. These aCCFs can be calculated with meteorological input data obtained from, e.g., numerical weather prediction models. We present here the open-source Python library called CLIMaCCF, an easy-to-use and flexible tool which efficiently calculates both the individual aCCFs (i.e., aCCF of water vapor, nitrogen oxide (NOx)-induced ozone production and methane depletion, and contrail cirrus) and the merged non-CO2 aCCFs that combine all these individual contributions. To construct merged aCCFs all individual aCCFs are converted to the same physical unit. This unit conversion needs the technical specification of aircraft and engine parameters, i.e., NOx emission indices and flown distance per kilogram of burned fuel. These aircraft- and engine-specific values are provided within CLIMaCCF version V1.0 for a set of aggregated aircraft and engine classes (i.e., regional, single-aisle, wide-body). Moreover, CLIMaCCF allows the user to choose from a range of physical climate metrics (i.e., average temperature response for pulse or future scenario emissions over the time horizons of 20, 50, or 100 years). Finally, we demonstrate the abilities of CLIMaCCF through a series of example applications.

Abstract. Atmospheric fronts are a widely used conceptual model in
meteorology, most encountered as two-dimensional (2-D) front lines on
surface analysis charts. The three-dimensional (3-D) dynamical structure of
fronts has been studied in the literature by means of “standard” 2-D maps
and cross-sections and is commonly sketched in 3-D illustrations of
idealized weather systems in atmospheric science textbooks. However, only
recently has the feasibility of the objective detection and visual analysis of 3-D
frontal structures and their dynamics within numerical weather prediction
(NWP) data been proposed, and such approaches are not yet widely known
in the atmospheric science community. In this article, we investigate the
benefit of objective 3-D front detection for case studies of extra-tropical
cyclones and for comparison of frontal structures between different NWP
models. We build on a recent gradient-based detection approach, combined
with modern 3-D interactive visual analysis techniques, and adapt it to
handle data from state-of-the-art NWP models including those run at
convection-permitting kilometre-scale resolution. The parameters of the
detection method (including data smoothing and threshold parameters) are
evaluated to yield physically meaningful structures. We illustrate the
benefit of the method by presenting two case studies of frontal dynamics
within mid-latitude cyclones. Examples include joint interactive visual
analysis of 3-D fronts and warm conveyor belt (WCB) trajectories, as well as
identification of the 3-D frontal structures characterizing the different
stages of a Shapiro–Keyser cyclogenesis event. The 3-D frontal structures
show agreement with 2-D fronts from surface analysis charts and augment the
surface charts by providing additional pertinent information in the vertical
dimension. A second application illustrates the relation between convection
and 3-D cold-front structure by comparing data from simulations with
parameterized and explicit convection. Finally, we consider “secondary
fronts” that commonly appear in UK Met Office surface analysis charts.
Examination of a case study shows that for this event the secondary front is
not a temperature-dominated but a humidity-dominated feature. We argue that
the presented approach has great potential to be beneficial for more complex
studies of atmospheric dynamics and for operational weather forecasting.

Abstract. Dobšiná Ice Cave has attracted the attention of many researchers since its discovery more than 150 years ago. Although the cave is located outside the high-mountain area, it hosts one of the largest blocks of underground perennial ice. The topographic mapping of this unique UNESCO Natural Heritage site has led to several historical surveys. In the last decades of rapid climate change, this natural formation has been subject to rapid changes that are dynamically affecting the shape of the ice body. Not only increased precipitation, the rise in year-round surface temperatures, but also the gravity cause significant shape changes in the ice filling. This paper describes modern technological tools to comprehensively survey and evaluate interannual changes in both the floor and wall of the underground ice block. Technologies such as digital photogrammetry, in conjunction with precise digital tacheometry, make it possible to detect ice accumulation and loss, including the effect of sublimation due to airflow, as well as sliding movements of the ice block to the lower part of the cave. In the last two years, geophysical methods (microgravimetry and ground penetrating radar) have been added to determine the thickness of the floor ice in the upper parts of the cave due to the complexity of the measurements. The paper not only highlights the current technological possibilities but also points out the limitations of these technologies and then sets out solutions with a proposal of technological procedures for obtaining accurate geodetic and geophysical data.

Published: August 2023

Recent research suggests the benefits of supporting a progressive understanding of concepts of inference prior to the teaching of procedures and formal calculations through the study of informal statistical inference (ISI). To contribute to the growing knowledge about the early learning and teaching of statistics, particularly regarding the development of informal inferential reasoning (IIR), we designed a learning trajectory (LT) that addresses ISI in K–4 students (ages 5 to 9 years). This article describes part of the LT in detail, in which third-grade students (n = 12) were introduced to sampling, frequency distribution, randomness and sampling variation as well as to developing a data sense in online lessons. The results of this type of teaching show that the creation and collection of authentic data in a playful context, together with an exploratory analysis of the data as a precursor to utilizing aspects specific to IIR, promoted the integration progress of IIR components in the oral and written informal inferences of students.

La organización del conocimiento escolar en disciplinas cuenta con una larga tradición. Y, aunque el anhelo por el trabajo interdisciplinar tiene también amplios referentes históricos, no es hasta el último tercio del siglo pasado cuando no entra en crisis la tradición de enseñar por separado las disciplinas.

En este artículo, se reflexiona sobre la interdisciplinariedad y la transversalidad curricular bajo el enfoque de la nueva ley de educación, la LOMLOE. Para ello, se analizan y vinculan los conceptos de interdisciplinariedad y transversalidad. Hablar de interdisciplinariedad supone comparar el término con el de disciplinariedad, pero no negarlo. Y supone también definir los espacios de “no disciplinariedad” que se encuentran en la extensa literatura producida durante los últimos cincuenta años al respecto de este término.

Se adentra en el nuevo currículo a través de los tres ejes que han configurado la estructura curricular derivada de la LOMLOE, relacionando estos con el espectro de significados de interdisciplinariedad y transversalidad. Se evalúa la potencialidad del Perfil de salida como elemento curricular con un marcado carácter transversal y se analizará la presencia e incidencia de las competencias específicas como medio de enlace en pro de la transversalidad entre este Perfil y las áreas y materias; y se abordará una de las vertientes del incremento de autonomía curricular de los centros educativos a través de la posibilidad que se les ofrece de agrupar en ámbitos del conocimiento interdisciplinares las áreas de Educación Primaria y las materias de los tres primeros cursos de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria.
