Vehicular whole-body vibration (WBV) can have long-term adverse effects on human quality of life. Animal models can be used to study pathophysiologic effects of vibration. The goal of this study was to assess animal cooperation and well-being to determine the feasibility of a novel seated rat model for investigating the effects of WBV on biologic systems. Twenty-four male Sprague–Dawley rats were used. The experiment consisted of an acclimation phase, 2 training phases (TrP1 and TrP2), and a testing phase (TeP), including weekly radiographic imaging. During acclimation, rats were housed in pairs in standard cages without vibration. First, experimental (EG; n = 18) and control group 1 (C1; n = 3) rats were placed in a vibration apparatus without vibration, with increasing duration over 5 d during TrP1. EG rats were exposed to vertical random WBV that was increased in magnitude over 5 d during TrP2 until reaching the vibration signal used during TeP (15 min, 0.7 m·s−2 root mean square, unweighted). C1 rats were placed in the vibration apparatus but received no vibration during any phase. Control group 2 (C2; n = 3) rats remained in the home cages. Cooperation was evaluated with regard to rat-apparatus interactions and position compliance. Behavior, weight, and fecal glucocorticoid metabolite concentrations (fGCM) were used to evaluate animal well-being. We observed good cooperation and no behavioral patterns or weight loss between phases, indicating little or no animal stress. The differences in fGCM concentration between groups indicated that the EG rats had lower stress levels than the control rats in all phases except TrP1. Thus, this model elicited little or no stress in the conscious, unrestrained, seated rats.

0/1 and 3 - dimensional cold flow analysis of a diesel engine: A case study
Authors: Kethudaoglu Gonca , Aktaş Fatih , Karaaslan Salih , Dinler Nureddin
Published: March 2024

Gas motion in the engine cylinder plays a critical role in diesel engines' air-fuel mixing and combustion processes. Moreover, it influences the engine's performance, emissions, and heat transfer. The intake air motion regulates the main phases of the flow in the cylinder, which is characterized by swirl, squish, and turbulence. Inducing swirl and tumble in the intake process provides high turbulence levels at ignition, resulting in more effective flame speeds and better combustion for lean air-fuel ratios or with EGR. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software is used to enhance in-cylinder flow characteristics. In this study, a cold flow simulation of a naturally aspirated, direct injection diesel engine was conducted with different piston bowls using AVL Fire M R2022.2. Swirl, tumble, and TKE parameters were investigated to make a detailed analysis of the in-cylinder flow for the relevant engine. Contrary to the expectation, the swirl ratio for the Piston B configuration is less than that for the original piston configuration. It causes a decrement of swirl ratio compared to the initial piston geometry and the maximum decrement is about 19%. In both cases, the second peak of TKE corresponding to the reverse-squish is around at the -30 CA and the difference between the curves is about ±8%.

Published: March 2024

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites, which have good mechanical properties, are widely used in many sectors today. Carbon fabrics/epoxy composites are materials used in the production of various components in many professional in-dustries such as aerospace, construction, textile and automotive. The use of CFRP composite lightweight materials has begun to increase in the automotive industry to reduce emissions, increase crash resistance and save fuel. In order to evaluate mate-rials in these industrial areas, it becomes important to know their mechanical proper-ties such as tensile strength and three-point bending. In this study, carbon fiber rein-forced polymer (CFRP) [0°/0°], [0°/90°], [±45°] and [0°/90°/+45°/-45°/-45°/+45°/90°/0°] four different types of orientation CFR materials were used.Tensile and three-point bending tests were performed on the samples produced with 4 differ-ent orientation angles. Three-point bending tests were carried out in accordance with ASTM D7264 standards and tensile tests were carried out in accordance with ASTM D 3039 standards. Stress-strain and force-strain curves were drawn. It has been ob-served that the material type that withstands the maximum force the most is the C48 structured CFRP material with an 8-layer [0°/90°/+45°/-45°]s arrangement. However, it was concluded that the carrying capacity of the C48 sample was higher than the samples with different fabric orientation.

Social boundaries: The lexicographic evolution of Spanish household spirits in discourse
Authors:   Universitatea din București, Ionescu Ilinca-Simona
Published: March 2024

This paper constructs a diachronic analysis of the lexicography of the term denoting the Spanish household spirit, the duende, focusing on the period between approx. 1490 and 1791. I aim to analyse the linguistic path of the household deity in discourse, in order to see how its depiction has changed. The evolution of the being reflects upon the social perception of the spirit, but also upon societal changes. Cultural associations readily available to the authors of the dictionaries under analysis reveal themselves in the alternation between “low-brow”, folkloric beliefs, and the “high-brow”, learned representations of these beliefs. The many facets of the lexicographic entry help create the discourse surrounding the duende, which is essential for the making of a folkloric being. Particularly, the duende is a “small god,” as coined by Michael Ostling, denoting pagan deities that survived the transition towards Christianity through novel interpretations, mostly demonic or classical.
Labelling food-related slang terms for nationalities in learner’s dictionaries of English
Authors:   Universitatea din București, Moruzan Andreea
Published: March 2024

The present paper attempts to highlight the problems related to the usage label “slang” and to usage notes indicative of negative connotations (“offensive”; “disapproving”; “derogatory”) for certain words, taking into account monolingual dictionaries for learning English. The aim of the analysis is to investigate if there is any consistency in the labelling policy of these dictionaries, since some compilers emphasize that the definition of the slang term is sufficient to convey its negative connotations and does not require a label. In order to accomplish this goal, a corpus consisting of a series of twenty slang terms for nationalities will be taken into consideration. The paper will examine whether the label “slang” fluctuates in these dictionaries for learning English. It will also argue that the results of an analysis of labelling practices in dictionaries are essential because they provide an overview of perspectives towards slang and a possible response to the issue of whether the current lexicographic labelling system is appropriate
Acquisition of affricate /ts/ in Greek: A case study
Authors:   University of Crete, Poulidakis Anastasios
Published: March 2024

the present research examines the acquisition of affricates by one Greek-speaking child so as to investigate their phonological status in the underlying representation. For this reason, a comparison is made between the affricate [ts] and the clusters [ks], [ps] to see if their phonological status is same or different. The child’s data reveal a preference of the [-continuant] over the [+continuant] feature in reductions in all the aforementioned categories. However, the child manages quite often to utter [ts] faithfully, while clusters do not present any faithful production. So, the acquisition of [ts] precedes that of clusters. These findings support Lombardi’s (1990) Unordered Component Hypothesis, according to which the features [−continuant] and [+continuant] of affricates are unordered and are represented on two different tiers. In other words, their features are considered single-valued, namely, they are either present or absent. For the analysis of child’s tokens, Maximum Entropy Grammar is used (Goldwater & Johnson 2003), which can adequately account for the various handling of affricates.
Animacy in the acquisition of differential object marking by Romanian monolingual children

Published: March 2024

Differential object marking (DOM) has been shown, in an impressive number of production studies, to be acquired by monolingual children at around age 3. The picture which emerges from comprehension data, however, reveals that DOM is an area of vulnerability in L1 acquisition. This study investigates the acquisition of DOM by monolingual Romanian children using a preference judgment task. 80 monolingual Romanian children (aged 4;04-11;04) and a control group of 10 Romanian adults took part in the study. Results show that DOM is vulnerable and trace this vulnerability to the animacy feature. Romanian children incorrectly overgeneralize DOM to inanimate proper names and inanimate descriptive DPs until age 9. The vulnerability of animacy is predicted by its variable behaviour with respect to object marking as well as by the current increase in the use of clitic doubling, a DOM marker less sensitive to animacy. On the learnability side, we account for the findings in terms of Biberauer & Roberts’ (2015, 2017) Maximize Minimal Means model. We suggest that, in accordance with the Feature Economy bias, Romanian children first identify only the role of referential stability (which has more robust cues in the input) and consider the possibility of animacy as a relevant feature later. In line with the Input Generalization bias, children maximize the role of referential stability which results in overgeneralization of DOM to inanimate objects, especially to inanimate proper names.
Carroll Particle: A Possible Candidate for Dark Matter
Authors: Najafizadeh Mojtaba
Published: March 2024

The contraction of the Poincar\'e algebra gives rise in two distinct frameworks: Galilean physics and Carrollian physics. While classical Galilean mechanics encompasses well-established relationships for momentum, energy, energy-momentum, and Newton's second law, the corresponding formulas in Carrollian mechanics has remain unknown. This study aims to uncover these formulas within the context of Carrollian mechanics and investigate the thermodynamics of an ideal gas under this framework. The findings reveal a deviation from Galilean mechanics and present a remarkable discovery: Carrollian matter generates an outward gravitational field, in stark contrast to the inward gravitational field observed in Galilean mechanics. Based on this surprising observation, along with additional supporting reasonings, we propose that Carroll particles may be potential candidates for dark matter and may simultaneously provide an explanation for dark energy.

Along with its rapid therapeutic benefits, ketamine induces transient experience of dissociation during administration. Given the suggested association between ketamine-induced dissociation and treatment response, understanding the neural correlates of dissociation would help to elucidate its therapeutic mechanism. The posteromedial cortex (PMC) has been reported to play a vital role in the experience of dissociation induced by ketamine and psychedelics. In this study, we investigated whether ketamine-induced pleasant and unpleasant dissociations can be predicted by the PMC functional connectivity (FC) profile during ketamine infusion and at baseline in thirty-five male participants who underwent ultrahigh-field MRI. Pleasant and unpleasant dissociation during infusion were assessed by the oceanic boundlessness (OB) and anxious ego dissolution (AED) scores of five dimensions of the altered state of consciousness scale (5D-ASC), respectively. Our results showed that OB scores could be predicted predominantly by the functional links between the PMC and control network regions at baseline as well as during infusion. Regions were also found in the default mode network during infusion, while more distributed regions, including limbic and somatomotor regions, were involved at baseline. AED scores could not be predicted by the PMC profile at baseline or during infusion. Our findings highlight differential brain mechanisms underlying pleasant and unpleasant dissociations, complementing the literature findings suggesting a potential role of the quality of drug-induced dissociation in treatment response. Furthermore, our findings suggest that PMC FC reconfiguration might be a shared neural correlate of dissociation induced by ketamine and psychedelics, even though their main target neurotransmitter systems differ.
Knowledge that affects: An assemblage approach
Authors: Hertz Tilman , Bousquet Francois
Published: March 2024

There is consensus in the field of sustainability science that a collaboration between plural knowledge systems is needed to address matters of concern and to bridge the knowledge/action gap. The field has made many important advances in this regard and a particular focus has been on developing approaches that facilitate processes for generating actionable knowledge - such as principles or policy instruments for the co-production of knowledge. While these are certainly necessary, less attention has been paid to the question as to what exactly is meant to happen to “knowledge” in such processes. Inspired by process-relational philosophy we conceptualize knowledge as an “assemblage” and argue that what is meant to happen is an alignment between what we call, on the one hand, the “representational” and, on the other hand, the “affective” dimensions of knowledge. We argue that applying methods and techniques attuned to an assemblage approach can enhance processes of knowledge generation structured by principles and policy instruments and realize such an alignment. This, in turn, can contribute to closing the knowledge / action gap. So doing, our insights contribute to rehabilitating the affective dimension of knowledge that has been disregarded to the benefit of an understanding of knowledge that focuses solely on the representationalist content.

Bank erosion is an inevitable vestige of past to evident fluvial dynamics in relation to its discharge and velocities and work-load in view of its load washed or unwashed. The central idea is best suited to study the case of River Mahananda alias Mahanadi within the Upper Mahananda River basin area having similar kind of attestation of facts. The present study needed extraction of satellite imageries of Landsat from USGS sites associated with its processing and ultimately to frame out the temporal scenes through NDVI technique to visualize if the forest cover is at all influenced by bank erosion or not or for specific scales whatever is the reality. The inference registered heavy scouring along the hugging banks with temporal avulsions and bed aggradation. The rates of change of foothill forest areas and variation of cultivable areas for a period of 30 years initiating from 1990 is addressed to study here.

In this research paper we have thoroughly investigated that Tallon's Equation and Its Parameters in Extreme Superconducting Alkali-Halides. Superconductivity, a quantum phenomenon characterized by the complete loss of electrical resistance, continues to captivate researchers due to its potential for transformative technological applications. In pursuit of a deeper understanding of superconducting materials, this research explores Tallon's Equation, a critical tool for predicting superconducting properties. Specifically, we investigate the applicability of Tallon's Equation to extreme conditions, particularly high temperatures and pressures, in alkali-halide compounds. This study combines theoretical modeling and experimental validation to assess the accuracy of Tallon's Equation in predicting key parameters of superconducting alkali-halides under extreme environments. We scrutinize alterations in transition temperature, critical magnetic fields, and other pivotal parameters as materials are subjected to high temperature and pressure regimes. Furthermore, this research extends beyond theoretical considerations to practical implications. It explores the potential of Tallon's Equation in guiding the design and development of novel superconducting materials optimized for high-pressure applications. The findings from this study hold promise for advancing our understanding of superconductivity and harnessing it for innovative technologies in fields such as energy transmission, magnetic resonance imaging, and beyond.

Authors: Rani Seema , Sharma Shivani , Sharma Rajesh Kr
Published: March 2024

In this research paper, I have described the topic “Literacy and Media Effects of Biopic in Hindi Cinema: Medium of Public Thought” as much as possible. The literacy and media influence of biopic in Hindi cinema is important from the social and cultural point of view. Biopic films present the life stories of individuals of personal and social importance on screen, allowing people to understand their struggles, successes and perspective. These films inspire the audience with a prime view of the lives and contributions of individuals who have brought about amazing changes in the society. The influence of media is essential in this process as it makes the publicity, promotion and discussion of these films interactive. Promote the relevance and importance of these biopics through news, literacy and social media. By criticizing these biopics by thinkers and artists, people understand and think about their important messages. The medium of public opinion helps ensure that the purpose of biopics is met and that their social impact is in the right direction. Through this, we can make cinema a medium of education and prosperity and provide the knowledge of essential things to the future sociological generations. From this perspective, we can understand the ideas that are important to our society and organization and we can work to empower them through cinema.

 Abstract in Hindi Language:

इस शोध प्रपत्र में मैंने विषय ’’हिंदी सिनेमा में बायोपिक की साक्षरता और मीडिया के प्रभावः सार्वजनिक विचार का माध्यम’’ का यथासंभव वर्णन किया है। हिंदी सिनेमा में बायोपिक की साक्षरता और मीडिया का प्रभाव सामाजिक और सांस्कृतिक दृष्टि से महत्त्वपूर्ण है। बायोपिक फिल्में व्यक्तिगत और सामाजिक महत्त्व के व्यक्तियों की जीवन की कहानियों को स्क्रीन पर प्रस्तुत करती हैं, जिससे लोग उनके संघर्षों, सफलताओं और परिप्रेक्ष्य को समझते हैं। ये फिल्में दर्शकों को उन व्यक्तियों के जीवन और उनके योगदान को प्रमुख दृष्टि से प्रेरित करती हैं, जिन्होंने समाज में अद्भुत परिवर्तन किए हैं। मीडिया का प्रभाव इस प्रक्रिया में आवश्यक है क्योंकि यह इन फिल्मों की प्रचारणा, पदोन्नति और चर्चा को संवादपूर्ण बनाता है। समाचार, साक्षरता और सामाजिक मीडिया के माध्यम से इन बायोपिक्स की प्रसंगिकता और महत्त्व को बढ़ावा देते हैं। विचारकों और कृतिकों के द्वारा इन बायोपिक्स पर आलोचना करने से लोग उनके महत्त्वपूर्ण संदेशों को समझते और सोचते हैं। सार्वजनिक विचार का माध्यम यह सुनिश्चित करने में मदद करता है कि बायोपिक्स का उद्देश्य पूरा होता है और उनका सामाजिक प्रभाव सही दिशा में होता है। इसके माध्यम से, हम सिनेमा को एक शिक्षा और समृद्धि का माध्यम बना सकते हैं और आगे की समाजशास्त्रीय पीढ़ियों को आवश्यक बातों का ज्ञान प्रदान कर सकते हैं। इस दृष्टिकोण से, हम उन विचारों को समझ सकते हैं जिनका महत्त्व हमारे समाज और संगठन के लिए है और हम सिनेमा के माध्यम से उन्हें सशक्त करने का कार्य कर सकते हैं।
