Published: July 2021

Today, the scope of energy services markets (ESMs) has expanded worldwide and covered almost all areas of production and consumption of goods and services for both industrial and public appointments, as well as households, mainly due to energy efficiency and renewable energy sources. At the same time, the incompleteness of theoretically grounded bases significantly reduces the pace of these markets development. The purpose of this study is to present the framework for the determination of directions and construct a model of structural organization and functional interaction of the ESMs participants. Such approach allows, by combining resources, capabilities and information, to expand the scope and improve the efficiency and productivity of energy services. A new structure-function model of ESMs participants’ interaction has been developed. In addition, a new organizational mechanism is proposed to support the efficient functioning of the ESMs in the form of a cycle of continuous improvement of the energy services results. The practical significance of the study is to create a conceptual framework for the organization and functioning of ESMs, which allows to systemically assess the new opportunities for such markets in both developed and developing countries.

The efficiency of air conditioning (AC) systems depends on the operation of their air coolers at varying heat loads in response to current changeable climatic conditions. The intensity of heat transfer of refrigerant, evaporated inside air coils, drops at the final stage of evaporation, that is caused by drying out the inner wall surface. This results in lowering the overall heat transfer coefficient and reduction of air cooler efficiency in the whole. The concept of overfilling air coils that leads to excluding a dry-out of their inner surface and falling the overall heat transfer intensity at variation of refrigerant flows in response to change of current thermal load on air coolers is developed.

The domestic gas industry has been set an ambitious goal in the form of a state programme for extensive gasification of Polish cities and towns. This provides for transition of the municipal thermal energy and of the municipal economy to natural gas. Ensuring of reliable and safe transport of the gaseous fuel is also a part of this programme. The article discusses the problems of transporting of the nitrogen-rich natural gas from the local mines, related to water of unknown origin appearing in it. The events that can confirm that there is a possibility of moisture condensation from the gas and its migration deep into the distribution network have been analysed. The actual level of moisture in the natural gas, which is already directly supplied to the consumers, has been experimentally tested. It has been proved by the computer calculations that in the conditions of high pressure in the network, there is a possibility of such condensation, depending on the external atmospheric conditions and physicochemical parameters of the gas. It has been proposed to change the existing designing & construction legal provisions in order to protect the gas networks against water accumulating in them in a better way.
Thermophysical properties of porous materials
Authors:   Kielce University of Technology, Koshlak Hanna , Pavlenko Anatoliy
Published: July 2021

The study of the porosity of thermal insulation made of refractory materials is an important task for the power industry, since the thermal conductivity of porous materials depends on the shape and especially the location of the pores. An analytical review of existing technologies shows that research in this area is not enough to simulate the process of heat and mass transfer in porous alumina material. Experimental determination of the characteristics of heat and mass transfer in porous materials during the formation of a porous structure is a pressing scientific problem. This article analyzes the influence of the composition of materials on the formation of pores, as well as the effect of various impurities and temperature on the thermal conductivity of the material.

Studies over the past decade demonstrate the high potential of diff usion-weighted MRI (dMRI) as a modern technique for non-invasive quantitative assessment of the microstructural integrity of the white matter of the brain, which allows predicting some aspects of the rehabilitation potential. Purpose of the study: to calculate the threshold values of fractional anisotropy (FA) of some cerebral tracts, which are informative in determining various aspects of the rehabilitation potential in the acute period of ischemic stroke. Patients and methods. We examined 100 patients with ischemic stroke and 10 persons without stroke and cognitive impairment. All patients underwent dMRI and clinical assessment of indicators of rehabilitation potential at discharge. Results. The NIHSS at discharge is associated with the size of infarction, the FA of the anterior, posterior leg and knee of the internal capsule, the superior longitudinal, cingular and inferior fronto-occipital bundles. Similar associations were noted for the Rivermead mobility index and the Rankin scale. The function of the hand according to the Frenchay scale is associated with the size of the lesion, FA of the anterior leg of the internal capsule, superior longitudinal, inferior fronto-occipital and cingular bundles. The MoCA is interrelated only with the size of the infarction and the FA of the anterior leg of the internal capsule, the Berg scale — with the size of the lesion and the FA of the upper longitudinal bundle, the FIM scale — with the FA of the upper longitudinal, inferior fronto-occipital and cingular bundles. The threshold values of FA of the cerebral tracts which are most informative in determining various aspects of the rehabilitation potential in the acute period of ischemic stroke were determined. Conclusion. The quantitative assessment of the FA of the main projection and associative tracts is informative in relation to the determination of the rehabilitation potential in the acute period of ischemic stroke.

Published: July 2021

The new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is a single-stranded RNA virus of the Coronaviridae family and is clinically manifest with respiratory symptoms. However, patients have been described with symptoms and complications from the nervous system, as well as skin manifestations in the form of various rashes. In our clinical case of coronavirus infection (SARS-CoV-2), this is pneumonia with respiratory failure of the 1st degree, moderate severity and Bell’s palsy in combination with skin rashes in the form of an urticarial rash in a 58-year-old woman. Clinical features of cutaneous and neurological symptoms were prior to the development of respiratory symptoms. The presented clinical case showed that COVID-19, before the development of respiratory symptoms, can manifest itself with peripheral paralysis of the facial nerve and be combined with skin rashes, which can complicate the timely diagnosis of a viral disease.

The Tsunami Simulation Generated by ‘Anak Krakatau’ Volcano Flank Collapse using MIKE 21Hydrodynamics Flexible Mesh with Manning Number Variation
Authors: Khoirunnisa Hanah , Hendriyono Wahyu , Wibowo Mardi
Published: July 2021

This study aims to calculate the tsunami investment and the estimated arrival time at several locations around the Sunda strait, caused by the December 2018 Krakatao's eruption. The propagation of the tsunami wave is simulated using MIKE 21 Hydrodynamics Flexible Mesh (HD FM). The spatial data consist of the bathymetry and topography of the Sunda Strait area and its surroundings, whilst assumptions are made on the tsunami source topology and its exact location. Several runs of the simulation are then conducted by varying the Manning Number, i.e. bed resistance values, at the tsunami source and throughout the simulation domain, which accordingly would influence the propagation speed, inundation, and arrival time. Smaller Manning's values, which correspond to increasing roughness, are applied at locations closer to the tsunami source. In this simulation, Manning's number ranges from 10 to 40 m1/3s-1. Surface elevation, still water depth, and u and v velocity components are generated from this simulation.

Published: July 2021

Study of groundwater types using the Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) method in 'Martani Field’ Ngemplak District of Yogyakarta was done by carrying out eight measurement points to look for groundwater potential. This area is an area on the southern slopes of Mount Merapi which is included in the Yogyakarta Groundwater Basin. The type of lithology is identified based on the measurement of its resistivity value so that there are several types of lithology, namely Breccia (110-670 Ωm), Clay (1.99-10.12 Ωm), Sandstones (17.06-56.82 Ωm) and andesite lava (688-1657 Ωm). The bottom of the aquifer in this basin is composed of rock formations that are impermeable or semi impermeable which are non-aquifer, namely by Breccias, Clay and Andesite Lava. The existence of sandstones that act as aquifers is found near the surface at a depth of <25 m and at a depth of about 60-100 m below the surface so that it is divided into two categories, namely shallow groundwater and deep groundwater.

Authors: Широков Юрий Александрович
Published: July 2021

В статье изложены прогнозируемые риски увеличения числа несчастных случаев и профзаболеваний в птицеводстве из-за повышения доли возрастных работников вследствие изменения пенсионного возраста. Риски увеличения числа аварийных ситуаций и несчастных случаев могут возрасти на базе естественных биологических процессов, происходящих в организмах большинства людей после 60 лет, которые заметно теряют внимание, память, работоспособность и др. Одновременно, в результате уже накопленных за долгие годы работы в неблагоприятных санитарно-гигиенических условиях нарушений здоровья, при продолжении воздействия вредных производственных факторов могут возрасти и риски проявления профессиональных заболеваний. Вследствие этого руководителям птицеводческих предприятий и служб охраны труда необходимо своевременно скорректировать системы управления охраной и безопасностью труда.

Isu Teologi Kontekstualisasi Terhadap Adat Batak
Authors: Gulo David Martinus
Published: July 2021

Adat Batak semula dianggap berakar dan bersumber pada penyembahan berhala "Sipelebegu", meskipun orang Batak sendiri tidak pernah menyebut diri atau agamanya sebagai Sipelebegu. Penilaian negatif tersebut mengakibatkan orang Batak pada masa itu menolak Injil dan Kekristenan. Sebab masyarakat Batak terkenal sebagai suku yang sangat ketat memelihara adat, membuat dua kelompok terbagi menurut anggapan mereka mengenai adat, yakni mereka yang sangat mengagumi dan menentang keras pelaksanaan adat Batak. Meski begitu, Alkitab tidak konfrontatif menentang adat-istiadat, tetapi juga tidak menerima semua hal dalam adat. Karena itu, Injil tidak menganggap adat yang satu lebih unggul dari adat yang lain, melainkan masing-masing adat menetapkan ukuran kebenaran dan keadilannya sendiri; kemudian, adat juga harus tunduk pada Injil.

Fluvial sedimentation and its reservoir potential at foreland basin margins: A case study of the Puig-reig anticline (South-eastern Pyrenees)
Authors: Sun Xiaolong , Alcalde Juan , Gomez-Rivas Enrique , Owen Amanda , Griera Albert , Martín-Martín Juan Diego , Cruset David , Travé Anna
Published: July 2021

Fluvial fans represent one of the dominant sedimentary systems at the active margins of non-marine foreland basins. The Puig-reig anticline at the north-eastern margin of the Ebro Foreland Basin (SE Pyrenees, Spain) exposes continuous outcrops of late Eocene-early Oligocene fluvial deposits, from proximal to medial fluvial fan environments. The proximal deposits, located in the northern limb of the anticline, especially in the northwest zone, are characterised by conglomerates with minor interbedded sandstones, which present thick and wide sheet-like geometries with unscoured or scoured basal surfaces. These are interpreted to be the deposits of unconfined flash floods and wide-shallow channel streams. The medial deposits, covering the rest of the anticline, consist of interbedded beds of conglomerates, sandstones and claystones, deposited from braided channel streams and overbanks. Distal deposits are found towards the south, beyond the anticline, and are characterised by sandstone and clay deposits of terminal lobes or lacustrine deltas and interdistributary bays. This study assesses the impact of the primary depositional characteristics, diagenesis and deformation of the most heterolithic portion of the system, with implications for the understanding of folded fluvial reservoirs. Diagenetic processes, mainly mechanical compaction and calcite cementation, resulted in overall low matrix porosity, with limited relatively higher porosity developed in sandstone lithofacies in the medial deposits. Deformation associated with thrusting and fold growth resulted in the formation of abundant fractures, with relatively higher fracture intensities observed in sandstone lithofacies in the anticline crest. This study shows that post depositional processes can both improve and diminish the reservoir potential of basin proximal fluvial deposits, by the development of open fracture networks and by compaction-cementation, respectively. The comparison of the Puig-reig anticline with other similar settings worldwide shows that foreland basin margin locations can be potential areas for effective reservoirs, even in the case of low matrix porosity.
Benchmarking the Use of Immersive Virtual Bike Simulators for Understanding Cyclist Behaviors
Authors: Guo Xiang , Robartes Erin Marie , Angulo Austin , Chen T. Donna , Heydarian Arsalan
Published: July 2021

Recent reports indicate that cyclist fatalities are rising. Unlike automobile driver crash and safety studies, there is very limited information and data on how different environmental or design features impact cyclists’ behaviors, attention, and awareness. Real world studies evaluating cyclist behavior are limited due to their inherent safety risk; therefore, there is a need for alternate data to better inform the planning and design of roadways for all users. Immersive virtual environments (IVE) have shown to provide a realistic representation of real-world conditions; however, these tools have not been evaluated and validated for vulnerable road users, such as cyclists. The purpose of this study is to assess the use of an IVE bike simulator to study the impact of design and environmental conditions on cyclists’ perceived safety and behavioral changes. By benchmarking cyclists' behaviors and perceived safety in real-life settings compared to its representative IVE bike simulation, we can validate whether these IVE simulators are realistic representations of real-world conditions. Furthermore, by connecting these environments with the latest low-cost human sensing devices, we have built a multimodal human sensing data collection system to track participants’ gaze, heart rate, and head movement. The preliminary results from a six-participant pilot study indicate that our simulators are capable of replicating cyclists’ speed profile, heart rate changes, and most of the head and gaze behaviors and that these measurements are sensitive to environmental changes.
Modeling variation in empathic sensitivity using go/no-go social reinforcement learning
Authors: O'Connell Katherine , Walsh Marissa , Padgett Brandon , Connell Sarah , Marsh Abigail
Published: July 2021

Empathic experiences shape social behaviors and display considerable individual variation. Recent advances in computational behavioral modeling can help rigorously quantify individual differences, but remain understudied in the context of empathy and antisocial behavior. We adapted a go/no-go reinforcement learning task across social and non-social contexts such that monetary gains and losses explicitly impacted the subject, a study partner, or no one. Empathy was operationalized as sensitivity to others’ rewards, sensitivity to others’ losses, and as the Pavlovian influence of empathic outcomes on approach and avoidance behavior. Results showed that 61 subjects learned for a partner in a way that was computationally similar to how they learned for themselves. Results supported the psychometric value of individualized model parameters such as sensitivity to others’ loss, which was inversely associated with antisociality. Modeled empathic sensitivity also mapped onto motivation ratings, but was not associated with self-reported trait empathy. This work is the first to apply a social reinforcement learning task that spans affect and action requirement (go/no-go) to measure multiple facets of empathic sensitivity.
NATO Enlargement, Russia, and Balance of Threat
Authors: Maitra Sumantra
Published: July 2021

This paper explores the causes of Russian revanchism alongside phases of NATO expansion, and concludes that evidence of Moscow’s reflexive revanchism is sparse. Russian foreign policy is tested and correlated with Russian rhetoric, military strategy and Russian balancing actions, in light of each phase of actual and potential NATO expansion. The paper concludes that, first, Russia balances against perceived threats, only in areas where it has entrenched material and military interests. Otherwise, Russia is aware of relative military inferiority, and is agnostic about NATO and EU enlargement. These findings have enormous policy relevance, as both NATO and EU plans further enlargement, American and British isolationism grows, and European security scenario alters rapidly.

Introducción: El apego precoz entre madre e hijo, es una práctica de salud favorable, con beneficios biológicos y psicológicos, a corto y largo plazo.
Objetivos: Evaluar el nivel de conocimiento sobre apego precoz y su cumplimiento, en dos unidades médicas de la ciudad de Quito- Ecuador.
Materiales y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, transversal. Se aplicó una encuesta a médicos especialistas, médicos residentes e internos rotativos de medicina, para evaluar conocimiento: y una ficha de observación en la sala de partos para verificar el cumplimiento de los pasos de apego precoz.
Resultados: Se evidenció que el personal de salud posee un nivel de conocimiento bajo (91.4%), siendo los temas con menor puntaje: el tiempo óptimo para realizar apego precoz, el número de personas indispensables en la recepción del recién nacido y la práctica de apego precoz en nacimientos por cesárea. El cumplimiento de apego precoz fue inadecuado en el 68% de los partos observados, el paso de mayor incumplimiento, fue el mantener por lo menos una hora el contacto piel a piel entre madre e hijo. No existieron relaciones estadísticamente significativas entre el nivel de conocimiento de apego precoz con el grado académico (p = 0.34), y la unidad operativa (p = 0.69), ni tampoco entre el cumplimiento y el horario de atención del parto (p=0.98).
Conclusiones: El personal de salud desconoce aspectos importantes sobre apego precoz, y su cumplimiento es inadecuado en la mayoría de los casos.

Introducción: La salud de los trabajadores es fundamental para el buen funcionamiento de una institución laboral. Si no se realizan evaluaciones periódicamente y de manera íntegra estos empleados pueden desarrollar enfermedades de diversa gravedad que conlleven una reducción de la productividad, de la calidad de su trabajo y que afecten incluso a su situación familiar y social.
Objetivo: Esta investigación realiza un diagnóstico básico sobre el estado de salud de los trabajadores pertenecientes a un centro educativo universitario de Ambato, capital de Tungurahua, con el objetivo también de conocer los factores subyacentes que repercuten en el bienestar socio-laboral.
Materiales y métodos: Se aplica una metodología cuantitativa y cualitativa a través de la aplicación de un cuestionario online a 219 a profesores y administrativos de la institución.
Resultados: Entre ellos se observa que el 40% de los trabajadores tiene sobrepeso y un 10% obesidad tipo I. Casi el 25% tiene algún tipo de enfermedad crónica no transmisible. Además, los análisis inferenciales revelan que los mayores predictores de una mala salud son un menor grado en el estado de ánimo y tener enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles.
Conclusiones: Se termina concluyendo que los indicadores estudiados son lo suficientemente importantes para tomar medidas al respecto, a la vez que se aportan algunas sugerencias sobre cómo orientar posibles estrategias de prevención e intervención para mejorar el bienestar tanto de los empleados universitarios como de la propia institución.
Las zoonosis y la investigación como parte de la inversión en la salud pública
Authors: Echeverría-Valencia Gabriela
Published: July 2021

El termino zoonosis identifica a las enfermedades infecciosas que se diseminan entre los animales y el humano. El 60% de las patologías infecciosas en el hombre son producto de   agentes causales zoonóticos como bacterias, virus, hongos y parásitos.  El riesgo de la ocurrencia de dichas enfermedades es un problema latente, debido a la constante interacción del hombre con los animales domésticos y animales de crianza; además de la invasión de ecosistemas donde se hallan animales silvestres, convirtiendo a dichas patologías en un desafío para la salud pública.
Las enfermedades zoonóticas son posibles causantes de brotes, problemas endémicos, epidémicos e inclusive hasta pandémicos; como ha sido el caso del aparecimiento del virus responsable de la COVID-19. Anualmente la cifra global de casos de infecciones zoonóticas se describe que ronda el billón, y el número de muertes por su causa alcanza varios millones; por lo que las pérdidas humanas y económicas en países desarrollados como los Estados Unidos, son de un estimado de centenas de billones de dólares en las dos últimas décadas.
En el contexto epidemiológico de las zoonosis, la prevención constituye una de las herramientas fundamentales para hacer frente a ellas; es así que la inversión en investigación ha permitido el desarrollo de vacunas reduciendo los casos de infecciones de enfermedades tales como la rabia. Además, el desarrollo en el laboratorio de métodos diagnósticos a bajo costo y la producción de medicamentos a gran escala para el tratamiento, ha sido fundamental en el pronóstico de los pacientes.
Por ello, es necesario el descubrimiento y seguimiento de los patógenos potenciales en la naturaleza; con el objeto de elaborar modelos matemáticos que permitan comprender su interacción e inclusive aproximarnos a comprender su probabilidad de ocurrencia en determinadas circunstancias. Aunado a ello los mecanismos de invasión, evasión y colonización que conducen a la enfermedad como parte del conocimiento básico, proveerán información de valor incalculable a partir de la cual se pueden diseñar fármacos y vacunas. Finalmente, la comprensión del proceso infeccioso en modelos celulares y animales cercanos al humano, brindará conocimiento con el cual se puede hacer frente a la infección. La biodiversidad de muchos países en vías de desarrollo y la falta de inversión en investigación, ecología y enfermedades infecciosas en general, dejan al descubierto una brecha que pone de manifiesto un riesgo latente. Es así que la investigación básica y aplicada de las enfermedades infecciosas, que sin duda representan más que un gasto una inversión a futuro, son aporte fundamental para la compresión de las zoonosis y un beneficio a la Salud pública; ejemplo claro y tangible de ello constituyen las herramientas y las estrategias con las cuales los distintos países han enfrentado la pandemia actual, todas ellas forman parte y se fundamentan en la investigación y la ciencia.
