Integration of Topex Satellite Gravity and DEM SRTM Imagery for Subsurface Structure Identification at Tiris Geothermal Area, Lamongan Volcano Complex, Probolinggo, East Java
Authors: Siombone Salman Hamja , Susilo Adi , Maryanto Sukir
Published: January 2023

Tiris area is one area that has geothermal prospects. Tiris area is located in the Tiris sub-district, Probolinggo regency, East Java. This study aims to identify the subsurface structure of the Tiris geothermal area using Topex gravity and DEM SRTM imagery data. The Topex gravity data obtained is still in Free Air Anomali (FAA) form, so it is necessary to make Bouguer and terrain corrections to get a complete Bouguer anomaly. A residual Bouguer anomaly is needed to study shallow subsurface structures. This anomaly is obtained by separating the residual and regional anomalies from the complete Bouguer anomaly using the moving average method. The study area has residual Bouguer anomaly values ranging from -0.5 to 2.9 mGal. The low residual Bouguer anomalies are seen in the body of the Lamongan volcano (LV) and the Tiris geothermal area (TGA). The study of subsurface structures is focused on the LV and the TGA through Forward 2D modeling. The A-A' cross-section illustrates the subsurface of LV, while the B-B' cross-section illustrates the subsurface of TGA. Cross-section A-A' modeling results show that the source of the low anomaly is in the second layer D2 = 1.24 g/  at a depth of 4.0 to 0.6 km below sea level and is suspected to be magma because it has a low density. Cross-section B-B' modeling obtained a low anomaly source at the second layer D2 = 2.03 g/  at a depth of 4.0 to 2.8 km below sea level and is suspected to be intrusive rock. The lineament display on the 2D of DEM SRTM map for the 45o and 135o azimuths shows that the TGA region has a high lineament density, and the orientation of the surface geological structure in the study area is dominant in a northwest-southeast direction.

Published: January 2023

In the Molten Salt Reactor, the freeze plug is one of the components that plays an important role when a reactor accident occurs. In designing the freeze plug, the selection of the constituent material is based on the ability of the material to spread the heat. Therefore, studies on material selection are needed to provide information regarding freeze plug design. The modified freeze plug melting process has been simulated using the Moving Particle Semi-Implicit method. This study aims to observe the behavior of the modified freeze plug melting phenomena and to see the effect of the conductivity value on the melting process. The alloys used around frozen salts with different thermal conductivity are Hastelloy-N, Heynes-242, and ODS Alloy (MA754). The simulation results show that the time required for frozen salt to melt in Hastelloy-N, Heynes-242 variations , and ODS Alloy (MA754) are 12.3 seconds each; 12.7 seconds; and 24.3 seconds. The results obtained explain that freeze plugs with metal alloys that have the highest thermal conductivity require a shorter time to reach the melting point. This shows that the greater the thermal conductivity value, the easier it is to spread heat to the alloy that hits the frozen salt.
Reductive Asymmetric Aza-Mislow-Evans Rearrangement by 1,3,2-Diazaphospholene Catalysis
Authors: Cramer Nicolai , Zhang Guoting
Published: January 2023

1,3,2-diazaphospholene hydrides (DAP-H) emerged as a nucleophilic main-group hydride able to promote smooth conjugate reduction of polarized double bonds. The transiently formed phosphorus-bound enolate provides a potential platform for reductive α-functionalizations. In this respect, asymmetric C-heteroatom bond forming processes are synthetically appealing but remain so far elusive. We report a 1,3,2-diazaphospholene-catalyzed three-step cascade transformation of α,β-unsaturated N-sulfinyl acrylamides comprised of a conjugate reduction, [2,3]-sigmatropic aza-Mislow-Evans rearrangement and subsequent S-O bond reductive cleavage. The obtained enantio-enriched α-hydroxyl amides are synthetically highly valuable and formed in good yields and excellent enantiospecificity. The stereo-defined P-bound N,O-ketene aminal ensures an excellent transfer of chirality from the sulfur stereocenter to α-carbon atom. The transformation operates under mild conditions at ambient temperature. Moreover, DAP hydrides are found to be competent reductants for the cleavage of the formed sulfenate ester, thus eliminating the required additional step like in traditional Mislow-Evans processes.
On the role of charge transfer in many-body non-covalent interactions
Authors: Řezáč Jan , de la Lande Aurélien
Published: January 2023

Charge transfer is one of the mechanisms involved in non-covalent interactions. In molecular dimers, its contribution to the pairwise interaction energies has been studied extensively using a variety of interaction energy decomposition schemes. In polar interactions such as hydrogen bonds, it can contribute with ten or few tens of percents of the interaction energy. Less is known about its importance in higher-order interactions in many-body systems, mainly because of the lack of methods applicable to this problem. In this work, we extend our method for quantifying the charge transfer energy based on constrained DFT to many-body cases and apply it to model trimers extracted from molecular crystals. Our calculations show that charge transfer can account for a large fraction of the total three-body interaction energy. This also has implications for DFT calculations of many-body interactions in general as it is known that many DFT functionals struggle to correctly describe charge transfer effects.
Endometriosis-associated pain and new therapeutic options: A review
Authors: Yarmolinskaya Maria I. , Beganova Alexandra K. , Revenko Anastasia S.
Published: January 2023

Pelvic pain is one of the most common and significant clinical symptoms of endometriosis. The complex pathogenesis and paradoxical nature of endometriosis-associated pain, its chronicity and centralization, a marked decrease in the quality of life of patients, the lack of an "ideal" and effective remedy with no limitation for all patients, as well as the progressive and recurrent nature of the disease are factors that determine the need for novel, additional therapeutic options. The pain mechanisms in endometriosis and the potential pathogenetic effects of trans-resveratrol and indole-3-carbinol on various aspects of endometriosis-associated pain are addressed based on the literature sources presented in electronic databases PubMed, CyberLeninka, and Google Scholar. The described pharmacological properties of the compounds suggest that the combined use of trans-resveratrol and indole-3-carbinol is a pathogenetically justified and promising treatment for complex endometriosis-associated pain.

This article presents the results of a technical and morphological analysis of Middle Neolithic pottery from the multilayered site Pad Dolgaya 2 that located on the southwestern coast of Lake Baikal. The pottery collection includes 574 fragments from at least 13 vessels. It has been established that the raw material for all the pottery of the layer was heavily sandy, ferruginous clay with a natural admixture of sand and fine quartz. The composition of the molding mass is mainly free of artificial additives. In 5 cases, inclusions were recorded, presumably being fireclay. Different traditions were noted in the processing of the outer surface of the vessels (knocking out with a smooth, corded or ribbed spatula). The basis of the complex is the Posolskaya pottery with an external thickening of the rim. Vessels are mostly of complex, closed shape. Probably their bottom is pointed. Corolla diameters vary from 22 to 28 cm; in one case - 10 cm. The shards are dense and thin. There is evidence that the vessels were made using patchwork molding, probably on base molds (string prints are noted on the inner surface of one of the vessels). All units are ornamented; the pattern was located along the rim and in the upper part of the vessel. Vessels with a relief thickening of the rim, decorated in the classic embassy tradition, predominate in the findings. On a number of vessels (while retaining the main features characteristic of the Posolskaya type), there are tendencies towards simplification of the ornamental scheme and leveling of the thickening of the rim. Together with the Posolskaya ceramic type, fragments from a vessel with imprints of a braided net were found. The combination of the Posolskaya and reticulated types of pottery in one complex is noted at all stratified objects of the Middle Neolithic of the Baikal region. The studied pottery complex is similar in composition and main technical and morphological features to materials from stratified Middle Neolithic sites in the Upper Angara region. The dating of complex of the cultural layer II of the Pad Dolgaya 2 site (Posolskaya ceramic type) is based on stratigraphic observations, analogies with the materials of reference objects in the Baikal region, and radiocarbon AMS dating. As a result, it was found that the studied complex belongs to the Middle Neolithic and is dated within 6750– 6310 cal BP.
Geometric Images on Pebbles and Stone Tablets in the Paleolithic of Northern Eurasia: Comparative Analysis and Possibilities of Interpretation
Authors:   Institute of the History of material culture RAS, Korneva T. V.
Published: January 2023

This study is devoted to geometric images (also called “abstract” and “non-figurative”) on pebbles and stone tablets that are represented in the context of cave and open Paleolithic sites of Europe and Russia. Terms such as “geometric image” and “symbolic image” reflect different approaches to the study of non-figurative images - morphological and semiotic. Geometric images chronologically appeared earlier than figurative ones: the first evidence of nonutilitarian activity in the form of notches and strokes is known at the sites of the Acheulean time, and for the Middle Paleolithic their number reached several dozen. With the onset of the Upper Paleolithic, the heyday of Paleolithic art begins. Since the Magdalenian, there has been a sharp development of non-figurative art, which reached its apogee in the final Paleolithic. It was during this period that Azil pebbles appeared, and geometric images on stones became serial and standardized, primarily in Western Europe. Pebbles and stone tablets with signs are found on the territory of Central and Eastern Europe, the Urals and Siberia, up to Kamchatka. Some geometric images are found both in mobile and in rock art, but in most cases, it is impossible to consider the signs separately from the object on which they are applied. Pebbles and stone tablets are usually decorated with different motifs. They existed in different contexts and cultures: tablets were more often used as a base in the Magdalenian, and pebbles – in the Azilian. They probably had different meanings and were created for different purposes. The technique of image creation was also important: it is no accident that drawings made with paint rarely have analogies among engraved images, even within the one site. The application of the semiotic approach allows us to identify groups of images that can be considered elements of sign systems. The Azilian pebbles of Western Europe can be attributed to the sign systems. Stone objects with geometric images from Eastern Europe and Siberia do not form such a unity: they are represented by single artifacts, diverse in morphology, age, technique and the type of the stone object. Some objects found at the sites of the Northern Asia, from the Urals to Kamchatka, show similarities with European artifacts. However, such examples are rare, and similar stones with geometric images were found at sites very remote from each other, so it is too early to draw conclusions about their relationship.
Terminal-Edge Knapping Techniques in the Final Sartanian Complexes of Baikal-Yenisei Siberia
Authors:   Irkutsk State University, Zolotarev D. P. , Berdnikova N. E. ,   Irkutsk State University
Published: January 2023

The article presents the characteristic of the terminal-edge microknapping from the archaeological complexes of the Final Sartanian (sr4 ) of Baikal-Yenisei Siberia. These complexes are dated in the interval of 14.7– 12.8 ka cal BP. Most of them are localized in the Southern Angara region (14 objects). The rest of them are located on the Upper Lena (1 object) and in the Kan-Yenisei region (2 objects). Cultural complexes from the above-mentioned interval are included a large number of the Bølling–Allerød (BA) soils. The process of the identification of techniques/methods of terminal-edge microknapping coincide with understanding that is considered in Japanese archeology. Variations of the Yubetsu techniques (Sakkotsu, Oshorokko) are widely used including those which have a sharp flaking angle in the traditional system of frontal platform trimming. Bifaces, unifaces, flakes, platy partings and pebbles were the preforms. There are single forms made in the Rankosi technique. The earlier technique of Saikai continues to exist. The blanks were pebbles, flakes, specially prepared forms, bifaces. The main feature of this technique is the trimming of the platform by transversely oriented spalls with one of the laterals. It is combined with Campus technique. It is based on the use of flakes, flattened cores of various modifications and specially prepared bifacial forms as blanks. For the Campus technique a special variant of platform trimming was fixed which was formed by a series of flakes from the lateral as in the Saikai technique. Then the working segment of the platform was supplemented with a specific “stepped” flakes from the front. The closest analogies of the Yubetsu strategy are found in the materials of synchronous objects in the Baikal-Patom highlands and Western Transbaikal region. The combination of the specific techniques of microknapping of the Saikai and the Campus has broad analogies in the Sartanian complexes of the Yenisei River valley. In the development of the cultures of the late stage of the Upper Paleolithic of Baikal-Yenisei Siberia a certain continuity is traced. It is expressed in the development of microknapping strategies.
Education and the End of Times

Published: January 2023

Education has an important responsibility to preserve and protect a future. Even when concerned with the past, for example through history education (and history of education), education aims to preserve the past and carry it forward into an unknown future. Often education is tasked with changing the future, currently most apparent in the field of environmental education, where education is asked to inform the next generation about the threats we are facing, encourage new values regarding nature, and initiate political changes towards that environmental stewardship. A century ago, people could not have anticipated the threat of nuclear war or climate change. What new risks might emerge in the future? What is the best way to ensure that education contributes to the preservation of our world in the face of any number of possible future scenarios?
Ontario Special Education Funding: How Is It Determined?
Authors: Li Xiaobin
Published: January 2023

Approximately 12.5 % of the overall education funding, the special education grant increased from $1.6 billion in 2002-03 to $3.2 billion in 2020-21. For equity and inclusion, demands to increase the special education funding continue. Students with exceptionalities are at risk of lower achievement. All schools must provide special education programs. However, there has been no study investigating the special education grant per se. The purpose of this study is to examine how the special education grant for elementary and secondary students with exceptionalities in Ontario, Canada, is determined. The research questions are: How is the special education grant determined? How is funding for different exceptionalities determined? Document analysis is the main method for this study, but the author has also contacted the Ministry of Education for information not available through open documents. This article reviews funding information since 1998 and indicates that the special education grant increases almost annually. It is decided with a variety of mechanisms with six components. Three are determined mainly by total enrollment and three are determined mainly by claimed cases for different exceptionalities. The article helps us understand how the special education grant is determined, informing the discussion on policies of funding for students with exceptionalities.

Published: January 2023

The article presents the results of scientific research for 2018-2020 to identify the reaction of the flax Phoenix variety (Linum usitatissimum L.) to increasing seeding rates. The experiment was laid on the sod-podzolic medium loamy soil of a separate subdivision of the Smolensk Research Institute of the Federal State Budget Research Institution «Federal Research Center for Bast Fiber Crops». It was found out that with an increase in the seeding rate, there was an increase in the number of flax stalks per 1 m2. However, the number of boxes per plant and seeds per box decreased by almost 1.2–1.6 times. The greatest resistance of flax plants to lodging (5.0 points) was obtained at seeding rates of 16, 18 and 20 million units/ha. Further, with an increase in the seeding rate, the studied indicator decreased to 3.8 points. The increase in the seeding rate was accompanied by a decrease in the yield of flax seeds by 0.35 t/ha (or 41%) and an increase in the yield of flax - by 1.91 t/ha (or 34%). Optimal in terms of flax fiber content and its yield were variants with a seeding rate of 22 and 24 million germinating seeds per 1 ha. The fiber content in plants in these variants was 28.0–27.4%, its yield was 20.0-20.7%.

The purpose of this article is to study the existing methodology for calculating fire risk and identify factors that the methodology does not take into account, but their impact on the magnitude of fire risk is significant. It has been established that such a factor is the panic of people as a result of a reaction to external influences. The article contains the results of a study on the influence of the panic factor on the evacuation of people in the event of a fire. The object of the study was the Children's Creativity Center located in one of the district centers of the Republic of Mordovia. It is established that the panic reaction depends on the gender and age parameters of people. A comparative analysis of the results of calculations of the evacuation time without taking into account and taking into account the panic factor shows that it is unacceptable to neglect this factor. The results of the conducted studies provide grounds for making changes to the methodology of fire risk calculations in order to take into account the panic factor at the beginning of evacuation.
The importance and state of general resources: the analysis of housing cooperatives from Świętokrzyskie and Małopolskie voivodeships from Poland
Authors:   Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce, Konieczna Izabela
Published: January 2023

Purpose: The main aim of the article is to determine the influence of the assessment of validity and actual state of individual resources and competences in the sphere of general resources on competitive potential. Additional aim is a comparison of these resources/competences taking into account housing cooperatives from Świętokrzyskie and Małopolskie voivodeships. Design/methodology/approach: The research was conducted among cooperatives’ executives who were asked to assess the validity and state of resources and competences in the sphere of general resources. All housing cooperatives from the Świętokrzyskie and Małopolskie voivodeships were asked to take part in the research, however, because of the tendency of the representatives of cooperatives to participate in the research, the research had been conducted on a sample of 27 housing cooperatives of which 7.6% from Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship and 21% from Małopolskie voivodeship, using an interview questionnaire. Findings: Analysis of conducted research show that there is a positive correlation between the assessment of the importance of resources in the sphere of general resources and the competitive potential of the enterprise. The findings also show that the state of resources is not a moderator (a factor that determines whether or not there is a relationship) of the relationship between the importance of resources and the competitive potential. Moreover, voivodeship of the enterprise does not differentiate its competitive potential and the state of its resources in comparison to its competitors. Practical implications: The study shows that it is very important for managers to know all general resources and competences due to the fact that the understanding of the validity of general resources and competences allows to create the competitive potential. At the same time the knowledge of the state of general resources and competences in comparison to the competition allows the company to do everything to keep up with the competition and then outrun it. It shows what resources/competences are better than competitor’s and what need to be improved. Originality/value: The article theoretically describes general resources/competences of the company and empirically analyses the importance of having the knowledge of possessed resources/competences and its influence on competitive potential. The value of the research is that it confirms what appears to be obvious but in fact is not taken into account by most enterprises. Keywords: General resources/competences, competitive potential, housing cooperatives. Category of the paper: Research Paper.

Published: January 2023

Purpose: The aim of this paper is to present a new model for risk assessment of unfavorable interorganizational relationships, among other things, in ventures classified as corporate social responsibility (CSR) projects. Design/methodology/approach: Scenario analysis, brainstorm sessions, literature study and own observations of interorganizational projects were used to develop a list of unwanted events and factors determining their occurrence. In the proposed risk assessment model, fault tree analysis and fuzzy logic were applied for qualitative and quantitative risk analysis. Thanks to applying the elements of fuzzy sets theory, it was possible to decrease the uncertainty and lack of precision in obtaining crisp values of the basic events’ probability. Findings: In this work 13 basic events and 41 risk factors determining occurrence of unfavorable interorganizational relationships in ventures were identified and described. The proposed model enabled to carry out qualitative and quantitative risk assessment of unfavorable interorganizational relationships projects. Its practical application was shown in an example of interorganizational CSR project concerning the organization of a mass event, considering its logistics aspects. Research limitations/implications: It is necessary to involve experts in risk assessment. This could be overcome by applying machine learning in future research. Practical implications: The application of the proposed model allows to effectively identify the critical risks, which should be of particular attention during the risk treatment stage. It aims to give a helping hand to all managers and practitioners who want to deliver attainable and successful interorganizational projects, supporting meeting the expectation of the engaged stakeholders. Social implications: Socially responsible activities contribute to solving and counteracting social problems. Originality/value: A novel risk assessment model of unfavorable interorganizational relationships in which 13 basic events and 41 risk determinants were considered. The model was presented at ventures classified as Corporate Social Responsibility projects. Keywords: risk assessment; interorganizational relationships; Corporate Social Responsibility; fuzzy logic; logistics for the organization of a mass event. Category of the paper: Research paper.

Complex health-care data will be growing exponentially as we enter the era of “big data”. Interpretation and analysis of a large amount of medical data for rapid and personalized decision-making require artificial intelligence-driven technologies and data mining techniques. Over the past decade, a rapid transition to the analysis, treatment and monitoring of kidney stone disease using the artificial intelligence (AI) with machine learning algorithms and artificial neural networks ensures the development of precise support systems. Machine learning algorithms able to predict the location of stones using computed tomography scans or ultrasound images, determine their chemical composition, recurrence rate based on demographic and genetic variables, spontaneous ureteral calculous passage, and treatment outcomes. Recent studies use rather simple machine learning methods and small training sets that reduce their accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity and limit their routine application. Therefore, the development of complex architectures, using multilayer artificial neural networks and convolutional neural networks, and integration other heterogeneous variables will improve the resultant predictive accuracy ensuring their introduction in real clinical practice.
