Authors: Jarullah Aysar Talib , Hameed Shymaa Ali , Hameed Zina Ali
Published: June 2022

In this work, an optimization framework is used to obtain useful model for an ammonia synthesis reactor that can be confidently applied to reactor design, operation and control. The main objective in the optimal design of such reactor is the estimation of the optimal reactor length for obtaining the maximum profit from the reactor at the best top temperature with satisfying the process constraints. gPROMS package has been used for modelling, simulation and optimal design via optimization. The optimization problem is posed as a Non-Linear Programming (NLP) problem and is solved using a Successive Quadratic Programming (SQP) method. New results are obtained for reactor length and optimal cost of the reactor. The effect of various top temperatures on the reactor performance is investigated and the simulation of ammonia reactor at each top temperature that provides further insight of the process has also been presented.

Authors: Al-Aqily Yousif Hashim , Abdul Muhsin Kamel Ali
Published: June 2022

A study of the Northern Fatha Reservoir System within the Tigris River Basin (Iraq) has been carried out with the aim of exploring the capability of the system to generate hydroelectric power. A simulation model using SIMULINK technique in the Matlab platform is built to mimic the system and its components (Mosul reservoir, Dokan reservoir, Bakhma reservoir, and Makhool reservoir) The reliability of the system under different future scenarios of inputs is also been studied by means of a stochastic model used to generate inflow time series. Thomas- Fiering model was selected for this purpose, which provided a wide spectrum of inputs (inflows) to generate hydropower from the reservoir system under study. Generally, the annual capability of the Northern Fatha subbasin for energy generation reaches 20000 GW-hr. Knowing that the country needs is around 12 GW of power, and the integrating power production of the basin under study was about 1.1GW, this would cover around 10% of the total demand, which is clearly significant.

Systematic analysis of the nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms recorded for a series of microporous – mesoporous amorphous aluminosilicates using classical methods
Authors: Baldovino Medrano Víctor Gabriel , Niño Celis Viviana , Isaacs Giraldo Rafael
Published: June 2022

Understanding the porous structure of microporous – mesoporous materials is very important for developing useful scientific concepts and principles in materials science, surface science, heterogeneous catalysis, adsorption and related technological applications. Amorphous aluminosilicates are of particular interest in this sense because it is relatively simple to design them with diverse porous structures comprising micro, meso, and even macropores. In this work, we took advantage of the latter and developed a systematic and in-depth analysis of the results of nitrogen physisorption tests at 77 K performed over a series of microporous – mesoporous amorphous aluminosilicates and of the characterization of their texture by classical models to estimate surface area and porosity. The strategy for the analysis consisted of making a thorough description of the features showed by the recorded nitrogen isotherms, first. As a result, a proposal for considering two new types of isotherms, types I(c) and IV(c), and five new types of hysteresis loops, H1(b), H2(c), H3(b), H3(c), and H4(b), in addition to the standard IUPAC classification. These new categories stemmed from the microporous – mesoporous nature of the materials and from the presence of strong network effects. The previous analysis helped interpreting and judging the results of the calculations made with classical methods to assess the texture of the materials; namely, their BET surface area, t-plot microporosity, BJH mesopore size distribution, and fractal dimension. The performed analyses allowed establishing that the relative percentage of microporosity of the materials can be correlated to the physisorption energy as described qualitatively by the CBET constant. Concerning mesopore size distributions, it was found that the BJH method remains to be very valuable for describing the porous structure of the materials particularly if the results obtained with both branches of the isotherms are considered. Finally, it was shown that the fractal dimension can complement the analysis of the porous structure of microporous – mesoporous materials if the latter are compared considering the features of their isotherms and of their hysteresis loops. Overall, the present study can thus be said to make two contributions: (i) it proposes a systematic methodology for analyzing both the raw data and the textural properties calculated by classical methods both derived from nitrogen physisorption experiments. (ii) It presents useful new insights on the texture of microporous – mesoporous materials.
Control of vibration-metasurface coupling at mid-infrared spectral window for inorganic thermal emitters
Authors: Nishijima Yoshiaki , Juodkazis Saulius
Published: June 2022

Coupling between light and molecular vibrational modes is dependent on efficiency of molecular absorption. Here we demonstrate how to control coupling between molecular mid-infrared absorption/emission at chemical fingerprinting spectral window and metasurface using SiO2 as the absorber/emitetr and CaF2 as a spacer to optimise strength of coupling. Use of inorganic dielectric I-spacer in Metal-Insulator-Metal (MIM) metasurface opens applications in narrow-band emitters at IR spectral window at elevated temperatures (> 350C) where polymer/organic I-spacers degrade

Understanding the processability of graphite blend electrodes with silicon nanoparticles
Authors: Zapata Dominguez Diana , Franco Alejandro A.
Published: June 2022

The manufacturing process aims to optimize the parameters leading to enhanced Lithium-Ion Battery (LiB) electrode properties. Particularly, developing silicon/graphite blends could be an alternative for boosting LiB energy density while using the longstanding properties of graphite. Here, we report the manufacturing parameters impact of the mixing, coating, and calendering steps on the properties of silicon/graphite blend electrodes. The mixing process was assessed by the solid and silicon content dependency, where the viscosity increases when increasing the solid and decreasing the silicon content. Moreover, the slurry rheology directly impacts the mechanical stability of the electrode when coating using thicker comma gaps. The calendering step evidences a porosity threshold necessary for adequate ionic resistance and cycling life. We found that porosities between 45% to 56% for these silicon/graphite blends yield higher performance. Lower than 30% porosity highly impacts the electrochemical performance in a detrimental way.
The performance structure of individual competition in biathlon
Authors: Bauer Klemen , Pustovrh Janez , Jošt Bojan , Vodičar Janez
Published: June 2022

Individual biathlon competition as an event consists of a number of segments (variables), i.e. cross-country skiing time, range time, so-called time difference, and shooting accuracy. In the research part, the study analysed the interrelations of these variables and their correlations with competitive performance at the Biathlon World Championship individual competition. Regression analysis showed that total cross-country skiing time was the most important determinant of competitive performance (55%). Total shooting performance prone and standing explains 39.5%, total range time accounts for 5% of the criterion variable, and time difference for 0.5%. The contestants hit 80.5% of all targets in this competition. Factor analysis determined seven factors that logically completed the competition outcome in a biathlon individual competition. These factors are: cross-country skiing performance; shooting time and range time; time difference; accuracy shooting 1 and total time in lap 1; accuracy shooting 2 and total time in lap 2; accuracy shooting 4 and total time in lap 4; and accuracy shooting 3 and total time in lap 3. Although we found in this competition a somewhat dominant contribution of the cross- country skiing itself to the final competitive performance, shooting accuracy is also very important in an individual biathlon competition. The results of men’s individual biathlon competitions at the last Olympics and World Championships show that it is still possible to win a medal with only one missed shot (two missed shots can only be afforded by the rare biathletes who are extremely fast skiers).

Cat’s claw (Uncaria tomentosa) is a huge liana that grows in the jungles of South America and Mesoamerica. It stands out for containing high concentrations of oxindolic alkaloids and phenolic compounds, especially pro–anthocyanidins. This explains its use in traditional medicine as an anti–inflammatory and antioxidant agent. The present study focused on the latter characteristic. The objective is to enhance it with citric acid, a very common food additive. For this purpose, a gradient of citric acid concentrations was established and the antioxidant profile of aqueous leaf and bark extracts was evaluated with the following assays: Folin–Ciocalteu, DPPH, FRAP and ABTS. Which revealed that the concentration of citric acid and antioxidant capacity are directly proportional variables. The statistical method also confirmed that the difference is significant. On the other hand, citric acid produced better results in peel extracts, although leaf extracts yielded higher values of antioxidant activity. Keywords: Uncaria tomentosa, citric acid, potentiation, antioxidant activity, Folin–Ciocalteu, DPPH, FRAP, ABTS.
“I Regret Lying" vs. “I Regret that I Lied": Variation in the Clausal Complementation Profile of REGRET in American and British English
Authors: Romasanta Raquel P.
Published: June 2022

The historical development and change of the English complementation system has received a great deal of attention in recent years, but work remains to be done on Present-day English. Previous studies on the complement-taking predicate regret have shown that in British English the choice between a that-clause and the gerundial -ing is non-categorical or probabilistic, with the speaker being able to choose between them. This non-categorical variation is the focus of the present article, which aims to identify any existing differences in the clausal complementation profile of regret in British and American English, as well as any linguistic variables that might determine speaker choice.
Interrogating Cosmopolitanism and The Stranger in Tendai Huchu’s The Maestro, The Magistrate & The Mathematician (2015)
Authors: Riaño Alonso Cristina
Published: June 2022

This article analyses Tendai Huchu’s novel The Maestro, The Magistrate & The Mathematician (2015) in the light of cosmopolitan theory, drawing from Ulrich Beck’s conceptualisation of the cosmopolitan society and Vince Marotta’s notion of the figure of the cosmopolitan stranger. Urban space theory and Henri Lefebvre’s Rhythmanalysis is also discussed. This work focuses on the main characters in the novel in order to question the validity of some of the characteristics attributed to the cosmopolitan stranger, principally their ability to transcend standpoint epistemologies. It addresses the characters’ common struggle to re-evaluate their identity in the new neoliberal capitalist context of Edinburgh in which they find themselves, as well as their search for belonging in the new community and the creation of a new home. The article also explores the potential of walking the city as a mechanism to reconcile identity conflicts and respond to the anxiety that the city generates —connecting internal time, memories and the body with external time and space— and contrasts it with the experience of running. It is contended that the novel resists the imposition of a definite meaning, portraying the cosmopolitan strangers as nuanced individuals, while also exploring the possibility of failure of the cosmopolitan stranger.
Metafictional Predestination in Muriel Spark's The Driver's Seat
Authors: Villar Flor Carlos , Altemir Giral Ana
Published: June 2022

Muriel Spark’s The Driver’s Seat is a radical metafictional experiment, suggesting the inexorable connections between contingency and a predetermined plot which are so common to many Sparkian novels. Following Marina MacKay’s perception that Spark’s experimental narrative operates “in the conceptual space where the more abstract preoccupations of Roman Catholic theology overlap with the metafictional and fabulist concerns of postmodernism” (2008: 506), this essay will discuss how the notion of predestination reverberates in The Driver’s Seat, not only as a remnant of Spark’s Presbyterian education but also as a postmodern re-visitation of classical tragedy in a metafictional key. Spark’s preference for predetermined plots may echo a long philosophical and theological discussion spanning many centuries about free will and predestination, particularly intense in the times of the Protestant Reformation, but it also reflects the sense of predestination as a necessary ingredient of classical tragedy. In The Driver’s Seat Spark deliberately brought to the fore some conventions of Aristotelian tragedy, although she approached them through an experimental subversion ultimately resorting to comedy and ridicule, on Spark’s own admission her weapons for the only possible art form. Our contention is that the metafictional implications of The Driver’s Seat’s prolepses undermine a Calvinist-like certainty concerning predestined salvation or damnation. By using a partial narrator only capable of producing limited accounts, Spark may be playing with an experimental and essentially postmodern interpretive openness which is in tune with the ultimate uncertainty about each individual’s eternal salvation that is commonly accepted in Catholic thought.

Published: June 2022

It is very important to first detect and remove defective fruits with scratches or bruised areas in the automatic fruit quality screening system. This paper proposes a method of detecting defective areas in fruits using the latest artificial intelligence technology, the Yolo V4 deep learning model in order to overcome the limitations of the method of detecting fruit’s defective areas using the existing image processing techniques. In this study, a total of 2,400 defective fruits, including 1,000 defective apples and 1,400 defective fruits with scratch or decayed areas, were learned using the Yolo V4 deep learning model and experiments were conducted to detect defective areas. As a result of the performance test, the precision of apples is 0.80, recall is 0.76, IoU is 69.92% and mAP is 65.27%. The precision of pears is 0.86, recall is 0.81, IoU is 70.54% and mAP is 68.75%. The method proposed in this study can dramatically improve the performance of the existing automatic fruit quality screening system by accurately selecting fruits with defective areas in real time rather than using the existing image processing techniques.

Recently, research and system using AI is rapidly increasing in various fields. Smart farm using artificial intelligence and information communication technology is also being studied in agriculture. In addition, data-based precision agriculture is being commercialized by convergence various advanced technology such as autonomous driving, satellites, and big data. In Korea, the number of commercialization cases of facility agriculture among smart agriculture is increasing. However, research and investment are being biased in the field of facility agriculture. The gap between research and investment in facility agriculture and open-air agriculture continues to increase. The fields of fruit trees and plant factories have low research and investment. There is a problem that the big data collection and utilization system is insufficient. In this paper, we are proposed the system for determining the fruit tree growth stage using a deep learning-based object detection model. The system was proposed as a hybrid app for use in agricultural sites. In addition, we are implemented an object detection function for the fruit tree growth stage determine.
