Evaluation of satellite precipitation products for water allocation studies in the Sio-Malaba-Malakisi River Basin of East Africa
Authors: Omonge Paul , Olang Luke , Herrnegger Mathew , Schulz Karsten
Published: April 2021

Study region: Sio Malaba Malakisi river basin, East Africa. Study Focus: Poor rain-gauge density is a limitation to comprehensive hydrological studies in Sub-Saharan Africa. Consequently, Satellite precipitation products (SPPs) provide an alternative source of data for possible use in hydrological modelling. However, there is need to test their reliabilities across varied hydro-climatic and physiographic conditions to understand their applicability. In this study, we evaluated and compared the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM-3B42 v7), Climate Hazards Group Infrared Precipitation (CHIRPS v2.0), Multi-Source Weighted-Ensemble Precipitation (MSWEP v2.2), Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks-Climate Data Record (PERSIANN-CDR) and Tropical Applications of Meteorology using Satellite (TAMSAT) against gauge observations, for possible use in water allocation studies. Furthermore, the Continuous Semi-distributed Runoff (COSERO) model was adapted using the SPPs and applied to generate discharges, which were cross-compared with observed discharges. New Hydrological Insights for the region: Our results indicate that the SPPs are able to detect seasonal rainfall patterns throughout the basin. At lower altitudes, the products overestimated rainfall events as indicated by the performance measures. The COSERO results indicate that PERSIANN-CDR and MSWEPv2.2 overcompensated and underestimated discharge throughout the basin. This could be attributed to differences in temporal dynamics of the products. In overall, seasonal trends captured by the SPPs can be used to support catchment management efforts in data scarce regions.
Cyclic Behaviour and Modelling of a Dissipative Connector for Cross-Laminated Timber Panel Buildings
Authors: Latour Massimo , Rizzano Gianvittorio
Published: April 2021

This article aims to propose an innovative type of angle to be used in substitution of the hold-down in cross-laminated timber (CLT) panel buildings. The new connection, called XL-stub, applies a concept similar to the classical ADAS (added stiffness and damping) device. In order to characterize the force-displacement response under cyclic loads of the proposed XL-stub, an experimental campaign is presented. Successively, the effectiveness of the proposed angle is proved by analyzing the non-linear response under seismic loads of a single wall alternatively equipped with hold-downs or the XL-stub.

Published: April 2021

Improvement of traffic signal control (TSC) efficiency has been found to lead to improved urban transportation and enhanced quality of life. Recently, the use of reinforcement learning (RL) in various areas of TSC has gained significant traction; thus, we conducted a systematic literature review as a systematic, comprehensive, and reproducible review to dissect all the existing research that applied RL in the network-level TSC (NTSC) domain. The review only targeted the network-level articles that tested the proposed methods in networks with two or more intersections. We used natural language processing to define the search strings and searched Google Scholar, Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, Springer Link, and Science Direct databases. This review covers 160 peer-reviewed articles from 30 countries published from 1994 to March 2020. The goal of this study is to provide the research community with statistical and conceptual knowledge, summarize existence evidence, characterize RL applications in NTSC domains, explore all applied methods and major first events in the defined scope, and identify areas for further research based on the explored research problems in current research.

Published: April 2021

The altered cast impression technique is commonly used for the mandibular distal extension partially edentulous arches. The technique is relatively simple and improves the residual ridge to dentition relationship of the prosthesis. Due to the displaceability of the mucosa, free end saddles get displaced under occlusal load. A 45-year-female patient reported to the Department Of Prosthodontics and Crown-Bridge, College of Dental Surgery, B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences, Nepal with a chief complaint of missing bilateral lower posterior teeth. Clinical examination revealed missing teeth w.r.t 36, 37, 45, 46, and 47. The treatment plan was made to rehabilitate the patient with removable partial denture using functional impression along with the altered cast technique. The altered cast technique is the best alternative technique in the case of distal extension cases because better tissue adaptability, proper extension of a denture base, equal stress distribution, better support, and stability can be achieved. Finally, increased patient comfort and function are obtained.

Authors: Żejmo Bożena
Published: April 2021

Celem artykułu jest analiza powieści Generation P Wiktora Pielewina w kontekście teorii płynnej nowoczesności polskiego filozofa i socjologa Zygmunta Baumana. Zarówno rosyjski pisarz, jak i polski uczony wskazują na negatywne skutki wpływu nowoczesnej – niezwykle elastycznej, płynnej, wolnej od granic i warunków – cywilizacji komercyjnej na codzienne życie człowieka, jego mentalność, system wartości, samoidentyfikację i poczucie własnej wartości. Filozofia życia codziennego, oparta na apoteozie "drobnych działań" i dbałości o osobiste ideały jest zagrożona przez filozofię płynnej nowoczesności, głoszącą naśladownictwo idoli takich jak reklama i środki masowego przekazu.
Czarna dziura (Siergiej Lebiediew "Granica zapomnienia")
Authors: ZYWERT ALEKSANDRA MARIA
Published: April 2021

Powieść Siergieja Lebiediewa Granica zapomnienia (Предел забвения, 2010) wpisuje się w nurt (niezwykle istotny z punktu widzenia literatury postpamięci) tzw. powieści rodzinnej/generacyjnej. Na przykładzie historii bohatera-narratora próbującego odkryć prawdziwą tożsamość przyszywanego dziadka, Lebiediew pokazuje, że trudna i nieprzepracowana pamięć - to temat wciąż żywy, bo nadal w większości współczesnych rodzin rosyjskich przemilcza się niewygodne fakty z biografii krewnych (bądź w ogóle usuwa się ich z genealogii) w imię odgórnego nakazu tabuizacji błędów i traum. Wskazuje, że odgórne przyzwolenie, a nawet opresyjny nacisk na niepamięć stwarza wyrwę w świadomości najmłodszego pokolenia i jednocześnie utrwala tzw. świadomość represyjną. w tym kontekście podstawowym problemem jest kondycja narodu rosyjskiego w obliczu świadomego wyparcia ze świadomości części własnej historii.

The deterioration of the environmental conditions of human life, climate change and forced (climate) migration have become part of the most crucial global challenges over the past few decades. This article is devoted to the analysis of contemporary scientific studies of the impact of weakening environmental capacity and climatic changes on ethnic conflicts and their specific features in the world regions. Present paper provides research outlook on the base of comparative studies and country cases overview that define the influence of an unfavorable environment and climate hazards on the intergroup conflicts and ethnic violence. The research overview also focuses on the relationship between the development on research area itself with the contemporary public and political agenda of ecology and climate change. The main focus of attention is directed to the chain of relationships between the environmental changes and forced (climate) migration in relation to the processes of urbanization and internal migration within agricultural regions. Such studies overview geography of the environmental risks and identify countries of East and West Africa, as well as South Asia, as the most exposed to given climate risks. The number of studies on the countries of East and West Africa give the most evident perspective on the link between forced environment-driven migration and conflict. On the one hand, destabilization of inter-ethnic relations and the emergence of inter-ethnic violence are driven by the regional processes of urbanization that form the cities with "double fragility" with undeveloped infrastructure, economic and status inequality of ethnic groups and communities and weakened by the push-pull model of forced (climate) migration. On another — studies of forced agricultural migration in rural areas show the mechanisms of ethno-cultural differences, different status positions and in-group favoritism of the regional authorities as the conditions of ethnic grievance and violence. As a result, it is hard to underestimate the importance of justice as a condition and principle for robust strategies for adaptation to environmental changes and building of inter-ethnic trust.

Moderation is considered in this article as a complex of social and political approaches. This article highlights the variety of aspects of moderation: essential, research, regulatory, and resolving. The actualization of different types of moderation relates to the problem of unending emergency and reproduction of the dangerous conflict forms, despite the existence of the diversity of modern regulating socio-political conflict technologies. Such dominant conflict management applied technologies as arbitration, negotiation, mediation, and facilitation are often inefficient in the regulation of complex and large-scale conflicts in the social-political sphere, because of the absence of deep and timely problem research, furthermore, the absence of technologies scientific development and conceptualization, useful for such regulation. This problem is particularly acute in the following situations: conflict active faze and escalation, non-availability of conciliation, complex and multidimensional conflict subject, global transformation of modern society values, constant mutation of various confrontation forms. Thus, the article aim is to analyze and find out the moderation potentiality in conflict research and regulation, along with attention to moderator and moderation stylistics. Moderation today is both a pedagogical, managerial, and research technology, able to solve not only the entire range of applied problems of modern conflict science, but to work with the conflict through the whole technology complex. The moderation can become the most optimal way to study and regulate various types and forms of conflict in socio-political interaction, because of its long practical experience in conducting research in the form of focus groups in different areas and situations, on a par of its serious scientific and applied social-political potentiality.
The treatment of trauma-induced sexual pain among women: Clinical considerations for the use of adjunctive EMDR
Authors: Fonseka Trehani M. , Smith Carrie
Published: April 2021

Almost half of all women experience a sexual pain disorder in their lifetime, including dyspareunia, vaginismus, vulvodynia, and provoked vestibulodynia. Despite significant negative consequences across quality of life indices, few women seek treatment for sexual pain, and among those who do access support, more than half report that currently available strategies are ineffective or even harmful in some cases. This outcome may partly result from a standard of care that prioritizes pharmacotherapy and/or physiotherapy within pain management protocols rather than psychological interventions despite their demonstrated ability to yield comparatively better treatment outcomes. In considering that some women experience sexual pain in the aftermath of a sexually traumatic event, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a type of evidence-based trauma therapy, may be a suitable adjunctive treatment to mitigate symptoms by targeting psychological risk factors. In this report, the authors first review the impact of sexual trauma on sexual pain, particularly the biopsychosocial effects of trauma within the body and its hypothesized mechanisms of action on sexual functioning, and then provide an overview of EMDR therapy, including how it promotes the resolution of trauma symptoms and its effects on sexual pain. By presenting this evidence, the authors will explore how EMDR therapy may have utility as a novel adjunctive treatment to address sexual trauma-induced sexual pain disorders and optimize the provision of care among this clinical population.
Individual prediction of development of cervical dental tissue pathology based on the parameters of oral fluid
Authors: Zabolotna I. I.
Published: April 2021

Annotation. Significant prevalence of cervical lesions of hard dental tissues is the reason for the search for the ways to predict their development that is possible only with an individual approach to solving this problem. The aim of the study is to determine the chemical composition of the patients’ oral fluid with clinically intact hard tissues, cervical caries and wedge-shaped defect, identify its critical values and the subsequent development of the method for individual prediction of the onset of pathology in young people. To accomplish it we used JSM-6490 LV focused beam electron microscope (scanning) to determine the chemical composition of the enamel and dentin of 29 teeth and their longitudinal sections, the chemical composition of the oral fluid of 33 patients who were divided into three groups depending on the state of their hard dental tissues. The approbation of the proposed method was carried out in 45 young people, the results were compared with the data of the clinical examination of 42 patients a year later. To verify the relationship between the variables, the Pearson parametric correlation method was used based on the determination of the Brave-Pearson parametric coefficient (r) with a 95% confidence level. The reliability of the obtained results was evaluated by Student's t-test, the correlation between indicators – by Student’s test using the Z-test (Fisher’s z-test). The level of significance of differences at p≤0.05 was considered statistically significant. It was determined that the values of the Ca+Na+Mg/P coefficient in enamel, dentin and oral fluid significantly differed depending on the state of hard dental tissues (p≤0.05). Moderate and high inverse correlation was revealed between Ca/P and Ca+Na+Mg/P coefficients in cervical enamel and oral fluid (p≤0.05). Obtained results became the basis for the development of the method for individual prediction of the onset of cervical pathology in young people: with the values of the Ca+Na+Mg/P coefficient higher than 22 – a low level, from 11 to 22 – an average level, lower than 11 – a high risk level. Thus, we have proved that the proposed method is informative (the predictive accuracy reaches 85%), its non-invasiveness is the basis for its widespread use. We consider the search for the ways of individual prediction of the development of cervical caries and wedge-shaped defect in young people based on the parameters of the oral fluid to be promising.
A multivariate method of evaluating the effectiveness of optimizing the daily routine of schoolchildren
Authors: Sotnikova-Meleshkina Zh. V. , Martynenko O. V.
Published: April 2021

Annotation. The mode of a modern schoolboy-teenager is characterized by insufficient duration of night sleep, prolongation of homework, non-observance of diet, reduction of daily physical activity, excessive screen time, which under constant exposure can provoke a number of non-infectious and psychosomatic disorders. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of optimizing the daily routine of schoolchildren using the method of modeling structural equations. The study involved 175 students aged 10–14 years. Health status was assessed according to preventive medical examinations and screening-questionnaires with the calculation of the level of ill health and the coefficient of determination. Statistical data processing was performed using the licensed package SPSS Statistic v. 20 using one-way analysis of variance, correlation analysis, Chi-square test according to the Friedman method, Student’s t-test, as well as the method of modeling by structural equations (SEM) in the statistical package SEPATH Statistica. Using a normalized coefficient of determination, it was determined that for students in the experimental group were the most common signs of cardiorheumatological and allergic pathological conditions. Based on the pre-determined significance of the elements of the daily routine, the primary measures of primary prevention of pathological conditions were selected and implemented. The application of the multivariate SEM method using block data structures grouped by 11 variables (according to disease classes) and 15 blocks-elements of the daily routine allowed to evaluate the effectiveness of the prevention program. Pathology of the nervous (χ2=19.54; p<0.0001), respiratory (χ2=13.47; p=0.001) and cardiovascular systems (χ2=9.88; р=0.007) was determined to be the most “sensitive” to the impact of preventive measures. Thus, the proposed model allows to systematize the blocks that characterize both the prevention program and its effectiveness at different stages of implementation, which was determined by the level of morbidity of schoolchildren. The use of targeted preventive measures reduced the incidence rate by 10% in the experimental group against the background of an increase in pathological lesions in the control group by 22.9%.
The role of diagnosis of respiratory dysfunction in patients with thoracic trauma with polytrauma
Authors: Boiko O. V. , Volkova Yu.V.
Published: April 2021

Annotation. Combined thoracic trauma is one of the most unfavorable in determining the prognosis in patients with polytrauma. The aim of the study was to evaluate the informativeness of the spirography method in patients with concomitant thoracic trauma as a prognostic criterion for the severity of the course of traumatic disease and the effect of the proposed modifications of the intensive care algorithm on treatment results. A study of the state of indicators of the function of external respiration was carried out using the method of spirography in 92 patients with concomitant thoracic trauma. The patients were divided into 3 groups depending on the foreseen leading pathogenetic mechanism of respiratory failure in all periods of traumatic illness. The effect of additional administration of ceruloplasmin solution, solution of D-fructose-1,6-diphosphate sodium salt hydrate solution was compared with the classical algorithm of intensive therapy. The effect of the proposed treatment was assessed 30 days after receiving polytrauma and the parameters of the external respiration function were compared with the data obtained in conditionally healthy volunteers. It was determined that the addition of a solution of ceruloplasmin to the algorithm of intensive therapy, the leading mechanism of action of which is the effect on oxidative stress, is the most pathogenetically determined in patients with concomitant thoracic trauma in polytrauma, which is confirmed by the most restored indicators of the function of external respiration in them, determined using spirography on the 30th day of observation. The data obtained are important in determining the prognosis of the course of traumatic illness and planning a rehabilitation program in patients with concomitant thoracic trauma.
Pathogenetic role of oxidative stress in Localized scleroderma
Authors: Mahmoud Al-Omary Obadeh
Published: April 2021

Annotation. Localized scleroderma has a progressive, disabling course and complex pathogenetic mechanisms. It is important to assess the effect of oxidative stress on the content of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the activity of fibrosis. Sources were searched using PubMed and Google Scholar using keywords and abbreviations: Localized scleroderma, pathophysiology, oxidative stress, reactive oxygen species. Search results are processed by methods of survey, system and content analysis. It is set that the basis of the pathogenesis of the disease are three interdependent processes: the defeat of small arterioles and capillaries, immune disorders, excess collagen production by fibroblasts. In Localized scleroderma, there is an increase in the processes of free radical oxidation of lipids with increasing activity of the total oxidative capacity of blood serum. Reactive forms of oxygen (ROS) cause a number of disorders: oxidative damage to DNA, endothelial cells, increased platelet activation with abnormal expression of adhesion molecules and secretion of fibrogenic proinflammatory cytokines. Experimental studies have shown the ability of ROS to enhance the production of TGF-β, collagen and a marker of myofibroblasts – α-SM. The leading role is played by pathological activation of fibroblasts, which leads to the disposition of collagen; inflammation, vasoconstriction and secretion of growth factors develop in parallel. Disorders of collagen formation and the immune system are interrelated at the subcellular and molecular levels. These facts emphasize the relevance of the study of prooxidant and antioxidant systems in localized scleroderma.

This Thesis presents the results of experimental tests of masonry-infilled concrete and steel frames. The experimental work concerns static tests of masonry-infilled steel frames and dynamic tests of masonry-infilled steel and concrete frames on a shake table. Two artificial accelerograms and one real accelerogram were applied. The accelerograms were applied successively, by gradually increasing acceleration amplitudes for 0.1 g. Further, the Thesis presents a developed 2D numerical model for static and dynamic analysis of masonry-infilled concrete and steel frames that can simulate their main nonlinear effects. In this paper, the numerical model was improved with adequate simulation of structural formation and with simulation of reinforced and unreinforced plaster on exterior sides of a wall. The developed numerical model was verified using the results of the previous performed tests. The influence of several parameters on the behavior of masonry-infilled frames was investigated with the numerical model. Finally, main conclusions regarding behavior of these structures under static and dynamic loads are stated, followed by practical advises and recommendations for their reliable design.

Straw has a high energy capacity, but it is not ideal for the operation of biogas plants, since it contains a large amount of nitrogen-free substances, and only 4-6% nitrogen and mineral salts, but if it is properly pretreated, it is possible to reduce the fermentation time and increase the biogas yield. The positive results of pretreatment of biological raw materials are a high degree of grinding and homogenization of raw materials; reduction of the biomass fermentation period; the release of natural enzymes that are biological catalysts for the fermentation of biomass; stabilization of biological processes, which leads to the absence of foam and floating crust in the upper part of the bioreactor; the percentage of methane in biogas increases to 70-75 %. The aim of the study is to determine the intensity of methane fermentation of crushed buckwheat, rapeseed, soybean straw and corn stalks, depending on the size of crushed particles and the method of grinding. The article discusses the issue of determining the dynamics of biogas output depending on the method and geometric dimensions of grinding buckwheat straw, soybeans, rapeseed and corn chaff in a mesophilic mode of fermentation. The following devices were used to prepare the straw: shears, hammer mill, feed chopper and extruder. Additionally, soaking was carried out in water at a certain temperature. The prepared biomass together with the seed in a ratio of 1: 4 was put into laboratory fermenter bags and a thermostat. The biogas yield was measured for 42 days using special methods, which are patented in Ukraine. Based on the measurement results, graphs were built that characterize the dynamics of biogas output.

Malfunctioning Affective Infrastructures
Authors: Orlova Vasilina
Published: April 2021

Smoothly functioning infrastructures are “unnoticeable”; they attract attention upon a breakdown. When infrastructure does not function as intended, it does not stop working altogether. Rather, it functions in unprecedented ways. This article argues that in the process of malfunctioning, infrastructure not only facilitates engagement, but also produces an affect. This ethnography shows how the “broken road” (razbitaia doroga) in rural postindustrial Eastern Siberia becomes a site around which belonging and relating unfold. The broken road functions as infrastructure acquiring a capacity to be affective precisely as it malfunctions. The affect that people experience in connection to the malfunctioning piece of infrastructure has components of anger and annoyance, a sense of unity, sociality, and camaraderie, as well as the feelings of belonging to a certain group.

Gelişmekte olan ülkelerde doğrudan yabancı yatırım çıkışlarının yurt içi yatırımlara etkisi
Authors: AYDIN Nur
Published: April 2021

Bu çalışmada gelişmekte olan ülkelerde doğrudan yabancı yatırım çıkışlarının yurt içi yatırımlara etkisi araştırılmıştır. Bu kapsamda çalışma, 1993-2018 dönemi için yatay kesit bağımlılığını ele alan panel veri analiz yöntemleriyle incelenmiştir. Serilerin durağanlığı; CADF (2007) panel birim kök testiyle sınanmış ve serilerin birinci farkları alındığında durağan hale geldiği tespit edilmiştir. Seriler arasındaki eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin varlığı Durbin-Hausman (2008) eşbütünleşme testiyle sınanmış ve seriler arasında eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin olduğu görülmüştür. Uzun ve kısa dönem eşbütünleşme katsayıları ise Panel AMG (2009) yöntemiyle tahmin edilmiştir. Uzun dönem analiz sonucunda; gelişmekte olan ülkelerde doğrudan yabancı yatırım çıkışlarındaki %10’luk bir artış ana ülkenin yurt içi yatırımlarını %1.5 oranında arttırdığı görülmüştür.
