Authors: Finkler Alcedir Luis , Obregon Luana , de Campos Mauricio , Sausen Paulo Sérgio , Lenz João Manoel , Sausen Airam Teresa Zago Romcy
Published: May 2021

In recent years, the concerns regarding global warming have encouraged an increase in research on renewable energy and distributed generation. Different renewable resources are currently being used, and bioenergy is one among them. Biogas can be produced via digesters, and its energy is converted into electricity and injected into the electrical power system for supplying to meet the local or distant demands. Nevertheless, the generation of electricity via biogas on the consumer side brings new problems and challenges to the power system controller. Protection devices, such as a vector shift relay, are one of the most important components needed to connect a bioenergy system using synchronous generators into the mains. Although distributed synchronous generators are widely used and simulated in software tools, especially in MATLAB/SIMULINK, there is still a gap in technical literature detailing how to design or model a Vector Shift Relay. In view of this subject’s importance, this article aims to assist students, researchers, and engineers by proposing a step-by-step method on how to model and implement a vector shift relay in MATLAB/SIMULINK, although the methodology may easily be used in other simulation tools. A review of the topic is presented along with a detailed description of all needed blocks and expected results.
Children’s perceptions of others’ humor: does context matter?
Authors: James Lucy Amelia , Fox Claire Louise
Published: May 2021

Research suggests that those using adaptive forms of humor are perceived more positively compared to those using maladaptive forms of humor. Research of this nature, however, is yet to consider children. The present research involved presenting 357 children aged 9–11 years, with one of eight vignettes portraying either a male or female child using one of the four humor styles: affiliative, self-enhancing, aggressive, and self-defeating. Participants then completed a questionnaire to assess their perceptions of the child in the vignette. In a second study, context was also investigated, with 386 children from the same age group, by describing the humor as having taken place in either the playground or classroom. Findings of study one showed that children using maladaptive forms of humor were viewed less positively than those using adaptive forms of humor. Findings from study two supported those from study one, and further showed that the context in which humor takes place may not be important. Overall, the findings of the current study are supportive of previous findings with adults and highlight the potential importance of humor use in children’s perceptions of their peers.
Higher order approximation of biharmonic problem using the WEB-Spline based mesh-free method
Authors: Naraveni Rajashekar , Chaudhary Sudhakar , VVK Srinivas Kumar
Published: May 2021

In this paper, we consider a biharmonic equation with Navier boundary conditions and we decoupled this fourth order biharmonic equation into a system of second order equations. In numerics, there is an advantage because of this decoupling, i.e., one can use C
0 finite elements to solve the decoupled system instead of C
1 finite elements. For solving this decoupled system of second order equations, we use the weighted extended b-spline (WEB-Spline) based mesh-free finite element method. The WEB-Spline method does not require any mesh generation and eliminates the difficult, time-consuming preprocessing step. Also, by the WEB-Spline method higher order approximations are possible with relatively low dimensional spaces. Numerical results based on the WEB-Spline method are compared with the usual finite element method in order to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method.
Effect of Cyclic Prestrain on Tensile Behavior of Commercially Pure Copper
Authors: Manda Sanjay , Mishra Sumeet , Gurao N. P.
Published: May 2021

The effect of prestrain induced by load and displacement control low cycle fatigue (LCF) on subsequent tensile behavior of commercially pure copper was investigated. Mechanical properties obtained after post-fatigue tension (half-life fatigue followed by tension) were superior compared to quasistatic tension. There was significant improvement in strength with little change in ductility for the displacement control LCF prestrained sample after tensile test. However, there was appreciable simultaneous increment in both strength and ductility for load control half-life fatigue followed by tension sample compared to quasistatic tension. A thorough microstructural investigation reveals the presence of persistent slip bands (PSBs) in displacement control LCF sample, whereas the load control LCF sample shows a composite microstructure comprising cells and PSBs. This composite microstructure provides higher strength and ductility. The introduction of cyclic prestrain to a material will improve its monotonic properties, which is attributed to the cyclic prestrain-induced dislocation substructure.

Published: May 2021

Human-carnivore conflict is considered to be a major conservation and livelihood issue (Dar et al., 2009). The present study was conducted to assessed human carnivores’ conflict, its causes, severity and recommending conflict mitigation suggestions. Conflict in the study area was assessed through interview questionnaire, focus group discussions, pasture’s visits and observations. Results showed that 19% respondents had experienced conflict with carnivores. Carnivores depredation on livestock and poultry was the main cause of conflict. Wolves and Foxes are among most blamed carnivores in the study area. Last seven years depredation cases indicated that wolfs are the most destructive and lethal predator of livestock among all. In the pastures wolfs contributed 90% of the total damage. While In the adjacent village’s foxes contributed 73% of the total poultry depredation cases. No records of snow leopard depredation cases were found in the last 7 years. Depredation cases of lynx and jackal were very few. Most of the livestock depredation reported during the summer months from May to September while most of poultry depredation w0ere reported during the winter months from September to March. Respondents revealed that no compensation had given to the affected households, not from the responsible authorities nor from NGOs, that’s why their perception towards carnivore is not good. Of the total 28% recommended killing of carnivores, 22% were in favor of paying compensation for losses to affect. While few recommended improving of sheds/corals, employee youth as a guard, understand carnivore’s habitat to reduce conflict. Results indicates that human carnivore conflict is intense in the area. However, it could be reduced by multi-prolonged conservation programs includes compensation, insurance programs, awareness creation and Improving the livestock and poultry Corals/Sheds. Introducing trophy hunting in the area can also play a vital role in mitigating conflict. The money generated from hunting can be utilized for losses compensation and developmental purposes in the area.

Published: May 2021

The influence of weather conditions on vegetable crops plays an important role in the cucumber production. The biggest amount of cultivated fields is situated in the areas that are under risk for agriculture. Our research aim is to study different cucumber heterozygous hybrid varieties. Their chemical composition, crop formation, growing season, stem thickness near the root collar, main stem length, leaf area, leaf number per plant are of great importance to form clusters, the samples of which could give the highest cucumber productivity under Ukraine Right-Bank Forest-Steppe conditions. The samples of 36 cucumber heterozygous hybrid varieties of Ukrainian and foreign breeding (Russian, Italian, French) have been studied at Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University Training and Production Center. The variety estimation of 36 heterozygous samples shows that they have 17 traits. It has allowed us to subdivide them into five clusters at the lowest level under Ukraine Right-Bank Forest-Steppe conditions. In the plant nursery, all cucumber varieties are presented by six the most common hybrid samples. There are three samples that have been bred in Ukraine (Suvenir F1, Lyaluk F1, Vodogray F1), 1 in Poland (Sremski F1) and 2 in The Netherlands (Masha F1, Crispina F1).
Influence of heavy metals pollution on the formation of microbial community in gray forest soil
Authors: Malynovska I.M. , Kaminskyi V.F. , Tkachenko M.A.
Published: May 2021

The state of microbial communities in gray forest soil contaminated with heavy metals at a dose of 5, 10, 100 MPC, in the presence and absence of vegetative phytosynesis (corn) has been investigated in model experiments. The protective function of the phytocenosis concerning several groups of microorganisms, in particular, azotobacter and polysaccharide-synthesizing bacteria, has been shown. The number of azotobacter in the rhizosphere of plants exceeds the indices of soil without plants: in the control by 3.33%, at 5 MPC – 36.6, at 10 MPC - by 95.6%. The indicative function of azotobacter has been confirmed concerning soil pollution with heavy metals. The number of azotobacter is decreased with increasing the pollutant dose in the soil without plants: at 5 MPC - by 2.64 times, at 10 MPC - by 6.67 times, the corresponding indicators for plants rhizosphere are 2.05 and 3.52 times. Azotobacter is not detected by the method of overgrowing soil lumps at the maximum level of soil contamination with heavy metals (100 MPC). The mycelial forms of microorganisms (micromycetes) are highly resistant to contamination with heavy metals that have been confirmed. The activity of mineralization of organic substances, including hummus, is decreased with the increasing of pollutant dose in the soil has been shown. The pedotrophy index decreases at 5 MPC by 3.16%, at 10 MPC - 30,9, and 100 MPC - by 46.8% in soil without plants. Similar numbers for variants with plants fluctuate between 14.2 and 105.4%. The conclusion about a lesser susceptibility to microbial mineralization of complexes of humic acids and heavy metals has been confirmed. With an increase in the dose of the pollutant, the activity of humus mineralization decreases in soil without plants: at 5 MPC - by 16.7%, at 10 MPC – 12.6, at 100 MPC - by 74.7%; with plants: at 5 MPC - by 14.3%, at 10 MPC – 8.33, at 100 MPC - by 113.7%. It is also drawn attention to the fact that the activity of humus mineralization in the soil rhizosphere is lower than in the soil without plants. In our opinion, the reason for this is the presence of easily utilized substrates in the composition of plant root exudates. It makes the mineralization of hard-to-reach humus molecules inappropriate.

Published: May 2021

Rapid development of integration processes in the post-Soviet space leads to the formation of supranational legal regulation within the framework of regional international organizations. The Eurasian Economic Union is no exception. The authors study the process of harmonization of normative regulation of legal protection of trademarks in the national legislation of the Eurasian Economic Union member states taking into account the provisions of the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union and other international agreements. As a result of the analysis, the authors conclude that the national trademark legislation of the Eurasian Economic Union Member States is not sufficiently unified, which may have a negative impact on the legal protection of trademarks in individual countries.

The problem of tuberculosis infection caused by multidrug-resistant strains is becoming increasingly important in the world. This infectious disease poses a global health risk with an incidence rate of 8.8 million cases and a fatal outcome of 1.4 million. Coinfection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) increases the number of cases of tuberculosis and the development of active tuberculosis. Therefore, the search for substances with potential anti-TB activity is a promising way to solve this problem. 1,2,4-triazole derivatives – one of the interesting classes of anti-TB compounds. The study of their tuberculocidal, tuberculostatic properties, as well as MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) was promising in relation to mycobacteria of different species. The work was conducted in 2019–2020 at Dnipro State Agrarian and Economic University. M. bovis and M. fortuitum mycobacterial species were selected for the study. The investigation of MIC levels for isoniazid, GKP-305, BKP-100 revealed that the growth of M. fortuitum had begun at 12th and 14th day on Sauton and Model media modified with 0.125% hydrogumate solution, respectively, whereas growth on pure Sauton and Model media was observed on the 25th and 28th day, respectively. It indicates that modification of Sauton and Model media with 0.125% hydrogumate solution doubles growth rate of M. fortuitum. As for isoniazid added to Sauton medium, MIC in case of M. fortuitum was impossible to determine since the growth was observed even at 50 µg/mL. With respect to GKP-305 added to Sauton medium, MIC was 50 µg/mL, which was concluded by the absence of growth. However, in the range of 25 to 0.19 µg/mL, isolated flakes of the colony with matte finish up to strong, noticeable strokes of the colonies with matte finish, which become well apparent at shaking, were observed. Having conducted studies on MIC determination on M. bovis and M. fortuitum using various growth media, it was established that MIC for isoniazid, GKP-305, BKP-100 applied on M. fortuitum in Sauton medium was 50 µg/mL; on Model medium, only MIC for BKP-100 on M. fortuitum could be determined, which was 50 µg/mL; similar results were obtained for 0.125% hydrogumate-modified Sauton medium and 0.125% hydrogumate-modified Model medium (MIC for BKP-100 was 50 µg/mL). The studies revealed the potential teberculocidal and tuberculostatic ability of the studied drugs GKP-305 and BKP-100 in relation to M. fortuitum and M. bovis. Isoniazid was used as a control. High efficacy was found in BKP-100 in relation to mycobacteria (MIC from 12.5 to 50 μg /mL). GKP-305 showed a tuberculostatic effect.
Distribution of osprey Pandion haliaetus (Linnaeus, 1758) in the Altai Krai
Authors: Vazhov S.V. , Matsyura A.V.
Published: May 2021

In recent years, the number of observing the osprey (Pandion haliaetus (Linnaeus, 1758)) in the Altai Krai (Siberia, Russian Federation) has increased slightly. We suppose this fact is due not to an increase in the number of these rare birds in the region, but to an increase in the number of interested observers and amateur photographers. The appearance of such Internet resources as the Web GIS “Red Book of Altai Krai”, the Web GIS “Feathered Predators of the World”, “Siberian Birdwatching Community” and others makes it easy to publish the results of their observations, confirmed by photos, on the Internet, which makes them accessible to a wide audience. Most of the ospreys observed in the region are most likely migratory, stray, or flying single birds. However, regular recording of ospreys during the breeding time on a pond along the river Setovochka between the mountains of Babyrgan and Gladkaya on the border of the Soviet and Altai areas in 1980-2000 allows a high degree of probability to suggest nesting of this bird here.

Considering the geographical position of Ukraine, which is located on the border of several physical and geographical zones, the country has a significant variety of parasitic invertebrates and requires constant monitoring in the current integration conditions. Nowadays climatic changes and anthropogenic effect have an impact on ecosystems organization and cause the incidence of transmissible diseases, including tick-borne infections. In order to prevent the spread of pathogens, there is a necessity to analyze modern data of Ixodidae genus ticks, as components of natural and focal humans and animals diseases, their ecological features, behavioral responses, features of biotopic spread, biological patterns, their epidemiological significance. Our review analysis revealed that all stages of tick development depend on three major natural factors: temperature, humidity, duration of the photoperiod, and the presence of a host. Particularly important is the combination of the first two factors that determines the occurrence of two peaks of the number of ticks in April - May and in August – September, the last is less extended. At this time of year the nymphs and imago density increases and their infectious agents rate is increased too. The study of the epidemiological condition proves the fact that nymphs and imago of I. ricinus are equally infected with the most common pathogens of infections: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (sl) and Borrelia miyamotoi, rickettsiae bacteria (Anaplasma phagocytophilum), flaviviruses (tick-borne encephalitis virus and deer tick virus) and the protozoans (Babesia microti, Babesia duncani, Babesia divergens and Babesia venatorum). Often there is a different combination of these pathogens in the one tick. The infectious agents rate have an impact on the ticks behavior differences in the feeding duration, increasing ticks bites frequency, decreasing of blood feeding, and a prolongation of the life cycle. Therefore within the transboundary territories the urgent control of agents and vectors of infectious and invasive animals and humans diseases is required, studying changes of migrant thermophilic species habitats geography, and systematic measures for the prevention of parasites implementation is needed.

Ideologi Islam Tradisionalis Dalam Tafsir
Authors: Mulyaden Asep
Published: May 2021

Indonesian Islam consists of various groups and organizations, including Traditional Islam or a group that combines Islamic teachings with local customs and Islamic customs throughout the world. This study aims to identify the interpretation of traditional Islamic ideology from relevant references. It used a qualitative method, collected primary and secondary data from the literature study, and explained them through the descriptive analysis method. The results showed that some of the Traditional Islamic Groups are members of the Nahdlatul Ulama organization and others. They have unique characteristics, including exclusive and not accept others’ opinions outside the group. This group has a powerful network and spreads to remote areas through Pondok pesantren. The spread began with the entry of Islam to Indonesia in Sumatra, especially Aceh, and in Java through Wali Songo. Then, it produced great ulama  who spread  throughout the remote area and founded pesantren or Islamic boarding schools. They spread traditional Islamic teachings through oral and written in the pesantren. They published many written works in the religious field covering fiqh, Sufism, tasawuf, and tafsir. They had two learning methods, namely sorogan and bandungan. At first, in learning tafsir, they only used because as teachers and very simple pass it on. They thought that appreciating classic works is an appreciation of tradition. But after getting a lot of criticism from the reformists (modernists), they began to expand the teachings to various tafsir and wrote more about it. In writing tafsir, they often involve the traditionalist ideology based on Islam Aswaja (Ahlu Sunnah Waljamaah). They wrote about Aswaja's interests in the tafsir, especially as rebuttals to reformist groups, both in the fields of fiqh, tauhid, and tasawuf as contained in the tafsir of KH. Ahmad Sanusi.

Candidates for ordination with homosexual tendencies The article presents the problem of canonical suitability for ordination of candidates with homosexual inclinations. Taking into account the state-ments of the Magisterium of the Church regarding the necessary qualifica-tions and moral virtues of future priests, the author asked a key question: Is it acceptable to admit a clergyman to the seminary and then to form persons showing certain disorders in the sphere of sexual orientation? Ac-cording to the author of the publication, due to the serious theological, psychological and juridical arguments, it should be assumed that their admission to the formation process in the seminary constitutes a serious risk which must not be ignored at all. And it is wicked to allow a candidate practicing homosexuality or showing deep-rooted homosexual tendencies or promoting the so-called „gay culture” to be ordained to the sacrament.

Shonna Trinch and Edward Snajdr decipher signage in a way that will prevent you from looking at a sign in the same manner again. Their research is built on a series of site visits, observations, and ethnographic interviews and they posit that signage plays an important role in gentrification. As they explain it, signs effect public space; well designed and interesting signs are important attributes of placemaking, often part of a strategy for cities to reclaim their appeal.

RESUMO Objetivo Verificar se o desempenho da primeira avaliação da maturidade simbólica de crianças com transtorno do desenvolvimento da linguagem, se correlaciona com o desempenho em provas formais de avaliação da função intelectual não-verbal e vocabulário receptivo e expressivo após os 5 anos de idade. Método A pesquisa foi composta por 26 sujeitos, sendo 19 do sexo masculino, e 7 do sexo feminino, com média de idade de 4:10. Todos os participantes tinham, por ocasião da avaliação inicial, hipótese diagnóstica de TDL, posteriormente confirmada com base em critérios de inclusão e exclusão descritos internacionalmente. Foram analisados dados em relação à maturidade simbólica, vocabulário e desempenho em avaliação intelectual padronizada e investigada correlação entre eles. Todos os dados passaram por análise estatística e os intervalos de confiança foram de 95%. Resultados Quanto à maturidade simbólica, verificou-se tanto para o jogo mais utilizado, quanto para o mais elaborado, que a maioria das crianças com transtorno de desenvolvimento da linguagem apresentaram jogos mais primitivos. Em relação ao vocabulário, os dados apontam um melhor desempenho em vocabulário receptivo. Na avaliação do quociente de inteligência, as crianças obtiveram, em sua maioria, classificações na média e superior à média. Em relação à interação entre variáveis estudadas, nenhuma correlação foi encontrada. Conclusão Não foram encontradas correlações entre as variáveis estudadas. Os dados são discutidos à luz de literatura internacional e promovem importantes reflexões a respeito do desenvolvimento simbólico-linguístico dessa população.

Abstract The performance of accelerated test methods to determine the chloride diffusion coefficient in concrete is an important tool in the evaluation of the durability-related properties of the material and in the service life prediction of structures. In this way, this paper presents an experimental assessment of three standardized test methods for determining chloride diffusion coefficient. The migration-based tests presented by NT Build 492 and UNE 83987 and the diffusion-based test presented by ASTM C1556 were carried out. Six concrete mixes were produced: three with different water/binder ratios (0.45, 0.55, and 0.65) and three with replacement of cement by silica fume in the levels of 5, 10, and 20%. The results indicate that the method standardized by NT Build 492 has the best correlation with the diffusion test, in addition to being the one that requires the shortest execution time and has the lowest coefficient of variation of the results.
Effects of dowel bars misalignment in jointed plain concrete pavements – A numerical analysis considering thermal differentials and bonded slab-base interface
Authors: Silva Eric Ribeiro da , Balbo José Tadeu , Cargnin Andréia Posser
Published: May 2021

Abstract Joints in concrete pavements are built to allow slab volumetric variations avoiding random cracks. Moreover, as they are discontinuities, the use of dowel bars prevents loss of load transfer across joints. During bars installation or even concrete casting, misalignments and misallocations of those devices may occur, affecting the concrete pavement structural performance. This study explores the effects of such non-conformities in the positioning of dowel bars through numerical modeling, using the 3D finite element program EverFE2.25. For, numerical simulations, bending stresses in concrete slabs of a typical bus corridor were ascertained, varying misalignments types and magnitudes (vertical tilt and horizontal skew), base type (cemented and asphalt), slab/base interface bond conditions and concrete thermal differential. Results disclosed the contribution of using bonded base in reducing stresses, even when the dowels were severely misaligned while slabs were subjected to high thermal differentials.

Aim: to study a relation between a single-nucleotide polymorphism in the estrogen receptor beta (ESR2) gene and age of menarche in women of the Central Black Earth region of Russia.

Materials and Мethods. There were enrolled 696 women to the retrospective study. All subjects were interrogated data regarding the age of menarche. Three polymorphic loci rs4986938, rs1256031, and rs10144225 of the ESR2 gene were genotyped by using the TaqMan probe polymerase chain reaction. The functional epigenetic effects of the rs4986938 ESR2 menarche-associated polymorphism were studied by using the online HaploReg software.

Results. There were found out associations of ESR2 rs4986938 polymorphism with the age of menarche in Russian women of the Central Black Earth region of the Russian Federation. Women with the rs4986938 ESR2 polymorphism allele A in the genotype (genotypes A/A and G/A) had menarche at the age of 12.71 ± 1.03 years, which is 0.20 years later than in women lacking it in the genotype (genotype G/G), who had menarche at age of 12.51 ± 1.05 years (pperm = 0,01). The rs4986938 ESR2 polymorphism is characterized by pronounced epigenetic effects: it affects affinity for five transcription factors – CTCF, Nr2f2, Pax-6, Pax-8, and RAR, being associated with enhancer and promoter sites in various menarche-significant body tissues and organs, and associated with the expression of the ESR2 geneepigenetic effects: it affects affinity for five transcription factors – CTCF, Nr2f2, Pax-6, Pax-8, and RAR, being associated with enhancer and promoter sites in various menarche-significant body tissues and organs, and associated with the expression of the ESR2 gene.

Conclusion. The rs4986938 polymorphic locus of the ESR2 gene is associated with age of menarche in women in the European part of Russia.
