Parasitic infections of the gastrointestinal tract of domestic animals play a major role in the transmission of disease, which in turn may result in financial and productive losses. Notwithstanding, studies on the burden and distribution of diarrheagenic protists in zoological gardens are still insufficient. Given the close animal–animal and animal–human interaction in these settings, Public Health concerns under the One Health context are raised. Using molecular detection tools and phylogenetic analysis, the goal of this study was to assess the occurrence of four potentially zoonotic protists—Balantioides coli, Blastocystis sp., Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia spp.—in animals residing in zoological parks in Portugal. Occurrence of Eimeria spp. was also assessed because of its veterinary relevance. Although Blastocystis sp. represents most of the positive samples obtained (11.6%; 95% CI: 0.08–0.17), all parasites were detected (B. coli (2.9%; 95% CI: 0.01–0.06), and Cryptosporidium spp., Eimeria spp. and Giardia spp. presented the same prevalence (0.5%; 95% CI: 0.00–0.03)). We also describe the first molecular detection of B. coli in a collared peccary (Tayassu tajacu), of Blastocystis sp. in three different python species, and G. muris in a central bearded dragon (Pogona vitticeps), suggesting the broadening of the host range for these parasites.
Efficient Inverse Design of Large-Scale, Ultrahigh-Numerical-Aperture Metalens

Published: October 2024

Efficient design methods for large-scale metalenses are crucial for various applications. The conventional phase-mapping method shows a weak performance under large phase gradients, thus limiting the efficiency and quality of large-scale, high-numerical-aperture metalenses. While inverse design methods can partially address this issue, existing solutions either accommodate only small-scale metalenses due to high computational demands or compromise on focusing performance. We propose an efficient large-scale design method based on an optimization approach combined with the adjoint-based method and the level-set method, which first forms a one-dimensional metalens and then extends it to two dimensions. Taking fabrication constraints into account, our optimization method for large-area metalenses with a near-unity numerical aperture (NA = 0.99) has improved the focusing efficiency from 42% to 60% in simulations compared to the conventional design method. Additionally, it has reduced the deformation of the focusing spot caused by the ultrahigh numerical aperture. This approach retains the benefits of the adjoint-based method while significantly reducing the computational burden, thereby advancing the development of large-scale metalenses design. It can also be extended to other large-scale metasurface designs.

Published: October 2024

Advancements in laser glass compositions and manufacturing techniques has allowed the development of a new category of high-energy and high-power laser systems which are being used in various applications, such as for fundamental research, material processing and inertial confinement fusion (ICF) technologies research. A ceramic laser is a remarkable revolution in solid state lasers. It exhibits crystalline properties, high yields, better thermal conductivity, a uniformly broadened emission cross-section, and a higher mechanical constant. Polycrystalline ceramic lasers combine the properties of glasses and crystals, which offer the unique advantages of high thermal stability, excellent optical transparency, and the ability to incorporate active laser ions homogeneously. They are less expensive and have a similar fabrication process to glass lasers. Recent developments in these classes of lasers have led to improvements in their efficiency, beam quality, and wavelength versatility, making them suitable for a broad range of applications, such as scientific research requiring ultra-fast laser pulses, medical procedures like laser surgery and high-precision cutting and welding in industrial manufacturing. The future of ceramic lasers looks promising, with ongoing research focused on enhancing their performance, developing new doping materials and expanding their functional wavelengths. The ongoing progress in high-power ceramic lasers is continuously expanding the limits of laser technology, therefore allowing the development of more powerful and efficient systems for a wide range of advanced and complex applications. In this paper, we review the advances, limitations and future perspectives of ceramic lasers.

Authors: Wu Hao , Zhu Lingxia , Cai Jianjun , Lv Huijuan
Published: October 2024

This study employs a numerical computation model based on a municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerator in Nanning to investigate the impact of different sewage sludge (SS) co-combustion ratios and MSW incinerator temperatures on combustion efficiency. Using the FLUENT simulation method, this study systematically analyzes the distribution characteristics of the temperature field, velocity field, and pollutant concentration field within the furnace under various SS mixing ratios (5%, 7%, 10%, and 15%) and MSW incinerator temperatures (800 K, 1000 K, and 1200 K). The simulation results indicate that the combustion efficiency was optimal at an MSW incinerator temperature of 800 K, where the co-combustion of SS with MSW mixed effectively, leading to a stable and efficient combustion process. Furthermore, an SS co-combustion ratio of 7% was identified as the most effective in maintaining high combustion efficiency. These findings contribute to the optimization of co-combustion strategies for MSW and SS, enhancing both operational efficiency and environmental compliance.
CFD Analysis of the Effects of a Barrier in a Hydrogen Refueling Station Mock-Up Facility during a Vapor Cloud Explosion Using the radXiFoam v2.0 Code

Published: October 2024

A CFD (computational fluid dynamics) analysis to investigate the effects of the installation of a barrier in a hydrogen refueling station (HRS) mock-up facility, with a dummy vehicle and dispensers in the vapor cloud region, during a hydrogen-air explosion using a gas mixture volume of 70.16 m3 was conducted to determine whether the radXiFoam v2.0 code with the established analysis methodology to predict the peak overpressure can be utilized to evaluate the safety of a HRS with such a barrier installed in a large city in the Republic of Korea. The radXiFoam v2.0 code was developed on the basis of the XiFoam solver in the open-source CFD software OpenFOAM-v2112 by modifying C++ source codes in several libraries and governing equations so as to ensure effective calculations of the hydrogen-air chemical reaction and radiative heat transfer through water vapor in a humid air environment and to remove unnecessary warning messages that arise when using the radXiFoam v1.0 code. First, we conducted a validation analysis on the basis of measured overpressure datasets from a near field to a far field of a vapor cloud explosion (VCE) site in the HRS mock-up facility to evaluate the uncertainty in prediction datasets by radXiFoam v2.0. After this validation analysis, we undertook CFD sensitivity calculations by installing barriers with heights of 2.1 m and 4.2 m at a horizontal distance of 2.3 m from the VCE region in the grid model used for the validation analysis to assess the effects of these barriers on reducing the peak overpressure of the blast wave. From these calculations, we judged that the radXiFoam v2.0 code can accurately simulate the effects of the barrier during a VCE, as the calculated overpressure reduction values according to the barrier height are reasonable on the basis of previous validation results from Stanford Research Institute’s explosion test with such a barrier. The results herein imply that the radXiFoam v2.0 code is feasible for use in HRS safety when barrier installation must meet the technical regulations of the Korea Gas Safety Corporation in a large city.
KAN-HyperMP: An Enhanced Fault Diagnosis Model for Rolling Bearings in Noisy Environments
Authors: Wang Jun , Dong Zhilin , Zhang Shuang
Published: October 2024

Rolling bearings often produce non-stationary signals that are easily obscured by noise, particularly in high-noise environments, making fault detection a challenging task. To address this challenge, a novel fault diagnosis approach based on the Kolmogorov–Arnold Network-based Hypergraph Message Passing (KAN-HyperMP) model is proposed. The KAN-HyperMP model is composed of three key components: a neighbor feature aggregation block, a feature fusion block, and a KANLinear block. Firstly, the neighbor feature aggregation block leverages hypergraph theory to integrate information from more distant neighbors, aiding in the reduction of noise impact, even when nearby neighbors are severely affected. Subsequently, the feature fusion block combines the features of these higher-order neighbors with the target node’s own features, enabling the model to capture the complete structure of the hypergraph. Finally, the smoothness properties of B-spline functions within the Kolmogorov–Arnold Network (KAN) are employed to extract critical diagnostic features from noisy signals. The proposed model is trained and evaluated on the Southeast University (SEU) and Jiangnan University (JNU) Datasets, achieving accuracy rates of 99.70% and 99.10%, respectively, demonstrating its effectiveness in fault diagnosis under both noise-free and noisy conditions.

Published: October 2024

Object detection systems are used in various fields such as autonomous vehicles and facial recognition. In particular, object detection using deep learning networks enables real-time processing in low-performance edge devices and can maintain high detection rates. However, edge devices that operate far from administrators are vulnerable to various physical attacks by malicious adversaries. In this paper, we implement a function for detecting traffic signs by using You Only Look Once (YOLO) as well as Faster-RCNN, which can be adopted by edge devices of autonomous vehicles. Then, assuming the role of a malicious attacker, we executed adversarial patch attacks with Adv-Patch and Dpatch. Trying to cause misdetection of traffic stop signs by using Adv-Patch and Dpatch, we confirmed the attacks can succeed with a high probability. To defeat these attacks, we propose an image reconstruction method using an autoencoder and the Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM). We confirm that the proposed method can sufficiently defend against an attack, attaining a mean Average Precision (mAP) of 91.46% even when two adversarial attacks are launched.

Published: October 2024

The construction industry is actively developing remote-controlled excavators to address labor shortages and improve work safety. However, visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) remains a concern in the remote operation of construction machinery. To predict the occurrence and severity of VIMS, we developed a prototype system that acquires multiple physiological signals with different mechanisms under a low burden and detects VIMS from the collected data. Signals during VIMS were recorded from nine healthy adult males operating excavator simulators equipped with multiple displays and a head-mounted display. Light gradient-boosting machine-based VIMS detection binary classification models were constructed using approximately 30,000 s of time-series data, comprising 23 features derived from the physiological signals. These models were validated using leave-one-out cross-validation on seven participants who experienced severe VIMS and evaluated through area under the curve (AUC) scores. The mean receiver operating characteristic curve AUC score was 0.84, and the mean precision–recall curve AUC score was 0.71. All features were incorporated into the models, with saccade frequency and skin conductance response identified as particularly important. These trends aligned with subjective assessments of VIMS severity. This study contributes to advancing the use of remote-controlled machinery by addressing a critical challenge to operator performance and safety.

Published: October 2024

Introduction: Vaccination protects pregnant women against dangerous infectious diseases and contributes to disease prevention for the child until their vaccination schedule begins. Vaccination behaviour is related to attitudes concerning vaccine prevention. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional, non-representative study was conducted among Polish mothers using a diagnostic survey. We used the Vaccination Attitudes Examination (VAX) Scale. The author’s questionnaire included questions concerning experiences with adult and maternal vaccinations, as well as sociodemographic data. Results: Among the 375 respondents, more than half (n = 208, 55.47%) received at least one vaccine during pregnancy. The majority of respondents had a university education (n = 356, 94.93%). There was no statistically significant difference in terms of receiving vaccines during pregnancy between respondents with and without a healthcare education (p = 0.230). A logistic regression model indicated that women who were vaccinated outside pregnancy for COVID-19 (OR 4.61, 2.60–8.22) and influenza (OR 7.14, 3.58–14.25) were statistically significantly more likely to be vaccinated during pregnancy. There were statistically significant differences between women who were vaccinated during pregnancy and those who did not receive maternal immunisation in three subscales of the VAX Scale: Mistrust of Vaccine Benefit, Concerns about Commercial Profiteering, and Preference for Natural Immunity (p < 0.001). The most frequently indicated reason for a woman’s decision to be vaccinated was concern for the health and safety of the unborn child (n = 196, 94.23%). In contrast, women who were not vaccinated reported fear for the health and safety of the unborn child (n = 88, 52.69%). Conclusions: A key point may be to contribute to the vaccinology education of healthcare professionals, who play an important role in pregnant women’s decision to be vaccinated. However, our results may be disrupted because the majority of the women in our study had a university education.

Published: October 2024

Leptospirosis is a widespread zoonosis recognised as a re-emerging infectious disease in both humans and dogs, yet the actual seroprevalence of Leptospira in pets in Italy is relatively unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate Leptospira antibody prevalence in dogs and cats from a shelter by the microscopic agglutination test (MAT), the gold standard test in leptospiral serology, and to assess risk factors for Leptospira infection. This seroepidemiological study investigated the prevalence of leptospiral antibodies in a cohort of 106 dogs and 51 cats housed in a municipal shelter in Milan. Blood samples were collected from the animals during two sampling periods: spring/summer 2014 and autumn/winter 2016/2017. Eight serogroups were evaluated: L. Australis, L. Ballum, L. Canicola, L. Grippotyphosa, L. Icterohaemorrhagiae, L. Pomona, L. Sejroe, and L. Tarassovi. Antibody titres ranged from 1:100 to 1:6400. The results indicated that 21.7% of dogs had antibodies against serogroups L. Icterohaemorrhagiae and L. Australis, making them the most often found. Conversely, none of the cats showed any presence of antibodies. Seropositivity was higher in the spring/summer period (32.7%) than in autumn/winter (11.1%), and no statistically significant results were found regarding sex or age. These findings underscore the importance of ongoing serological surveillance and biosecurity measures in shelter environments to mitigate the zoonotic risk posed by leptospirosis.

Published: October 2024

This current study examined the ovarian (OA) and middle uterine arteries (MUA) blood flow under heat stress conditions regarding hormonal status (progesterone (P4), estradiol (E2), and nitric oxide metabolites (NOMs) assays). Eighteen pluriparous cows were examined, with twelve only being subjected to the natural mating as the other six animals were not bred. Pregnancy diagnosis was confirmed at day 30 by embryonic heartbeat and CL graviditatis (n = 6; pregnant), but some animals (n = 6) showed early embryonic death (EED), with the presence of control cows (n = 6). In the pregnant group, luteal diameter (cm) increased after mating, while in the pregnancy loss group it increased (p < 0.05) until reaching day 38 (1.41 ± 0.03), then decreased again. Luteal vascularity was declined in cows with EED after day 36 (p < 0.05) and reached its lowest level at day 50. P4 levels elevated in cows with EED until day 36 (13.64 ± 0.11) then declined. Both ipsilateral OA and MUA Doppler indices were declined in both groups except in cows who suffered from EED; both were elevated from day 38 until day 50 after mating. Ipsilateral peak systolic point (PSV cm/sec) of OA and MUA was elevated in both groups (p < 0.05), but in cows with EED this parameter was declined. E2 and NOMs levels were declined in cows with EED from day 40 and day 38 after mating (p < 0.05), respectively. This study provided novel data on the relations among the luteal diameter, E2, P4, and NOM levels, and luteal hemodynamics that predicts the amount of blood supply, which acts as a sensitive parameter to detect the alterations in luteal function during the first 50 days after mating.

Intensive farming can reduce production costs and maximize animal production efficiency; however, it also causes many adverse effects on the welfare of dairy cows. A mechanical brush is an automated grooming device that promotes the grooming behavior of dairy cattle, thereby helping to alleviate stress. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of using mechanical brushes on the production performance of dairy cows by comprehensively analyzing their milk production, health status, and reproductive performance. The cows were assigned to 6 groups: 109 lactating dairy cows (brush treatment) and 105 controls (without brush treatment), 64 dry milk dairy cows (brush treatment) and 49 controls (without brush treatment), and 198 perinatal cows (brush treatment) and 65 controls (without brush treatment). We found an increasing trend in the daily utility time and usage frequency of mechanical brushes for each cow during the lactating period (7.73 ± 4.02 min/d and 2.90 ± 1.22 times/d, respectively), dry period (15.97 ± 14.16 min/d and 4.21 ± 2.91 times/d, respectively), and perinatal period (25.15 ± 19.05 min/d and 5.45 ± 3.83 times/d, respectively) (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). The installation location of the mechanical brush significantly affected the frequency of its usage during the different periods. The head was the preferred body part for using the mechanical brush during the lactation and dry periods (59.32% and 44.54%, respectively), while the hip was the main preferred grooming part during the perinatal period (40.17%). Overall, the time, frequency, and preferred body part of dairy cows that used mechanical brushes varied across different physiological stages. Additionally, mechanical brush use in lactating and dry dairy cows significantly improved cleanliness of the body’s surface (p < 0.05) and enhanced milk production of lactating cows (p < 0.01), particularly for cows with four and five parities. Thus, the use of mechanical brushes could improve the production performance of dairy cows and enhance sustainability of large-scale farms.

Published: October 2024

Detecting IgE sensitizations in the serum of allergic dogs is commonly performed using allergen extracts, but these are difficult to standardize. This article details the development and validation of the Pet Allergy Xplorer (PAX; Nextmune, Stockholm, Sweden), the first multiplex macroarray for the detection of IgE sensitization in dogs using allergen extracts and molecular components; the PAX is derived from the Allergy Xplorer (ALEX2; MacroArray Diagnostics, Vienna, Austria). The selection of allergens, cartridge processing, strategy for identifying and blocking IgE directed against cross-reactive carbohydrate determinants (CCDs), and the method used for determining the positivity threshold are described. The validation of the PAX included evaluations of the specificity of its anti-IgE monoclonal antibody, specificity of IgE binding to target allergens, assay precision, and internal consistency. Additionally, the influence of possible confounding factors, such as sample type, the influence of hemolysis, lipemia, bilirubinemia, and elevated CCD-IgE, was tested. Finally, the sensitization rates of 23,858 European dogs to 145 environmental and Hymenoptera venom allergens were summarized. The PAX is accurate and reproducible and has a unique CCD-detection and blocking strategy; its molecular allergens offer a unique window on allergen cross-reactivity.
TO CALCULATE THE SPEED OF TRANSPORTATION OF SOLID PARTICLES
Authors: Ulyasheva V. , Martianova A. , Anshukova E.
Published: October 2024

The aerodynamic mode of aspiration and pneumatic transport systems depends on various factors, primarily on the physical characteristics of the transported solid particles, as well as on the characteristics of technological processes with the release of solid particles of various origins and the design of the systems under consideration. When designing aspiration and pneumatic transport systems for various industries, a set of tasks related to ensuring maximum permissible dust concentrations in industrial premises and in atmospheric air, resource conservation and energy efficiency is usually solved. Enterprises producing building materials are characterized by significant dust emissions. At the same time, solid particles are formed in the processes of crushing, grinding, sorting, and moving raw materials and building materials, which generally have a wide range of sizes – from 0.01 microns to 20mm or more. This creates significant difficulties in the design of hazard receivers, air ducts, and air purification devices. In the practice of design, calculations of aspiration and pneumatic transport systems are carried out according to engineering methods based mainly on the data of experimental studies of 1970-1990, in connection with which there is a significant difference in the results. Almost all engineering methods are based on experimental values of the floating velocity of solid particles. The values of the floating velocity of solid particles identical in physical characteristics differ by more than 30%. As for one of the most important aerodynamic characteristics, the transport velocity, new data for various types of particulate matter are needed to improve the methods of engineering calculations. Given the presence of particulate matter of various sizes in the aerodispersed flows of the systems under consideration, the use of numerical modeling is quite limited. There are results of numerical experiments, mainly for air purification equipment, in particular, cyclones. The paper presents experimental data for determining the transport velocity for solid particles typical for enterprises of the construction industry.
INFLUENCE OF THERMAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF BIOGAS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS ON THE THERMAL PARAMETERS OF WATER HEATING BOILERS
Authors: Leonov E. , Trubaev P.
Published: October 2024

The combustion products of biogas and natural gas differ in the content of components, which affects their heat content and heat exchange in boilers. To determine the possibility of using biogas in boilers designed for burning natural gas, the work compares the thermophysical properties of the combustion products of natural gas and biogas and their influence on the results of boiler calculations. Methods were obtained for calculating the thermal conductivity and viscosity of a mixture of gases depending on their composition and temperature. The comparison showed that the calorimetric and thermophysical properties of biogas combustion products differ from the properties of natural gas combustion products by up to 4 %, and the difference from the reference properties of combustion products given in the standard method for calculating boiler units is on average 6 %. A comparison has been made of the results of verification thermal calculations of low-power hot water boilers KVMG-1.0 and KSV-1.0 using the properties of combustion products given in the standard method for calculating boiler units, and when calculating them using the proposed equations. Calculations have shown that the results of calculations based on reference data of the standard method lead to higher values of exhaust gas temperatures and fuel consumption. It can be concluded that natural gas in boilers can be replaced by biogas without the need to reconstruct the boiler, but for thermal calculations it is necessary to take into account changes in the composition and properties of fuel combustion products.

Published: October 2024

A sustentabilidade é um conceito de tal amplitude que busca garantir que as gerações atuais atendam suas necessidades sem comprometer a capacidade das gerações futuras de contemplarem às suas próprias. Envolve ações multidisciplinares e políticas públicas que equilibrem aspectos econômicos, sociais e ambientais. Esta pesquisa se enquadra no Programa de Pós-graduação em Psicologia Educacional do UNIFIEO. É seu objetivo traçar um recorte temático, com propostas voltadas para o ensino médio. Abordará aspectos gerais, globais e particulares, se fazendo valer de métodos e critérios randômicos. A preocupação relativa aos recursos naturais ganhou corpo nos últimos anos em decorrência da comprovada escassez dessas reservas, que antes se imaginava serem inesgotáveis. O enfoque disciplinar do conhecimento não permite abordar toda e qualquer situação do mundo. Os conteúdos ensinados nas diferentes disciplinas estão demasiadamente marcados por idealizações, simplificações que dificultam sua aplicação no momento de lidar com a diversidade do mundo. Assim contextualizado, em um cenário de maior amplitude, desenvolverá uma discussão da transversalidade da temática em tela, entre professores e alunos, que necessitam estar em sintonia para que ocorra uma conscientização significativa sobre as reservas naturais, a não-poluição e o progresso equilibrado. Seu construto envolverá as disciplinas de Matemática, Língua Portuguesa, Ciências, História, Geografia, Arte e Educação Física. A metodologia se dará por base teórica qualiquantitativa, consistindo no desmembramento dos textos em categorias agrupadas analogicamente; revisará a bibliografia e irá efetuar o levantamento e, consequentemente, a análise dos dados coletados. Partindo do objetivo, que será o de investigar, em um recorte temático, com propostas voltadas para o ensino médio, terá como finalidade a formação de atitudes para a redução do consumo e discutir sobre o uso sustentável da água. Isso porque a preocupação relativa aos recursos naturais ganhou corpo nos últimos anos em decorrência da comprovada escassez dessas reservas, antes imaginadas inesgotáveis.

Religious organizations are of no small importance in the process of reform of convicted women in prisons. These women often, due to forced isolation and psychophysiological characteristics, display negative emotions and also demonstrate aggressive behavior. However, participating in religious education activities weakens negative traits and strengthens their cultural and moral qualities. The author concludes that religious organizations are an independent subject of crime prevention by convicted women based on the legal framework and educational and scientific literature. Additionally, representatives of religious organizations play a positive role in decreasing psycho-emotional stress and interpersonal conflicts, increasing the level of spiritual and moral development, and fostering a sense of responsibility in convicted women towards their family, friends, and society. The activities of representatives of religious organizations help in shaping the law-abiding life of a woman after the discharge and her further resocialization.

Published: October 2024

This study examined learners' experiences of synchronous online learning, which will play a role in future education, using the IPO model (Input-Process-Output). It was conducted targeting four students at Minerva University, which runs all classes synchronously online through its own online learning support system called ‘Forum’. Based on previous studies, a semi-structured questionnaire was created, interviews were conducted, and the responses were qualitatively analyzed. First, input was examined the system design and learner characteristics. In terms of system design, continuous updates regarding the functions of the learning support system, and immediate error response were provided. In addition, the learners showed a high level of self-regulation and technology use and had the characteristics of enjoying learning and taking on challenges without giving up in the face of adversity. Second, we examined the process areas by dividing them into system use and interaction. Classes were conducted in a discussion-oriented manner by utilizing various functions in the forum, which led to active interaction between the instructor and fellow learners. Third, in the output area, which is the academic and system usage aspects, learners' high satisfaction with classes and schools was confirmed. Based on these results, an educational direction was proposed to ensure the effective operation of synchronous online learning.
