Using industrial computed tomography (CT) in measuring dimensional parameters (such as diameter, distance) of manufactured parts becomes more and more popular due to its advantages such as being a nondestructive method and possibility to complete complex shape measurements rapidly. However, the accuracy and precision of the measured values are required to be validated by quality control. The complicated structure of multistep processing contribute to measurement errors and uncertainties through various factors. Among them, temperature change during the operation of CT machine possesses a high potential influence. Two test geometries created in Catia V5 were modelled in Marc Mentat Finite Element software considering different materials (PMMA, Al, AlMgSi1) to study the deformation behavior against the change of temperature during the CT measurement process. The results of simulations provided an appropriate point of view about the effect of the temperature parameter to the measurement accuracy and uncertainties

The article is dealing with the stress-strain state of the carrier beam of the two-axle vehicle chassis for a dynamic perturbing load that occurs in the process of driving along the unevenness of the road, taking into account the elastic characteristics of the spring suspension. When analyzing the ride smoothness, it is necessary to take into account low-frequency forced vibrations caused by road irregularities, as well as free low-frequency vibrations. The dynamic calculation was carried out by the force method. In this case, the expansion of a given arbitrary dynamic load is performed in terms of the main modes of vibration. The calculation for free and forced vibrations was made by an exact analytical method, taking into account the elastic pliability of the axial supports of the beam. In the course of the study, the external dynamic forces acting on the structure under consideration, reduced to three-point masses, were determined and three forms of free vibrations were obtained. The results of the study can be used to optimize the design of the truck chassis and to improve their reliability and safety in operation. By understanding the behavior of a suspension system under dynamic loads, engineers can design stronger, more reliable designs that can withstand the stress of transporting heavy loads over rough roads. In general, this study contributes to the development of more efficient and safer transport systems

Published: January 2024

Glaucoma is a progressive disease of the vision organ that leads to irreversible blindness. Due to increased intraocular pressure in this disease, retinal cells are destroyed, the optic nerve of the eye atrophies, and visual signals stop entering the brain. A person begins to see worse, peripheral vision is impaired, as a result of which the visibility area is limited. Early diagnosis of glaucoma remains one of the current problems in ophthalmology: more than 50% cases remain undiagnosed. The use of optimal diagnostic methods gives ability to identify patients at an early stage disease, when it is still possible to prevent irreversible changes in vision. Clear clinical assessment in combination with modern diagnostic technologies increases the level of diagnostics and allows choosing the right tactics in patient management.

Authors: Mamyrova Kanykei , Manvendra Singh , Murzabek kyzy Asel
Published: January 2024

Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a prevalent medical condition that can exacerbate the severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Studies from around the globe have shown that hypertensive patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) tend to experience more severe symptoms and have poorer outcomes. A meta-analysis of eight studies from China found that hypertensive patients were over twice as likely to develop severe COVID-19 illness that requires intensive care unit admission, mechanical ventilation or results in death. Several other analyzes of data from China, Italy, and the United States have come to similar conclusions, showing roughly double the risk of adverse outcomes in hypertensive patients. In summary, hypertension appears strongly linked to worse COVID-19 outcomes across the world. Patients should maintain good blood pressure control and take recommended precautions to avoid SARS-CoV-2 infection. Clinicians should closely monitor hypertensive patients diagnosed with COVID-19 due to their increased risk of critical illness. Continued research on how hypertension influences COVID-19 severity can help guide therapeutic approaches for this high-risk population.

Distributed wastewater treatment and reuse as a water supply: impact on urban water system resilience
Authors: Li Qilin
Published: January 2024

Water and wastewater systems are critical infrastructure whose disruption directly threatens public health, economic growth, as well as the reliability and functionality of other critical infrastructure including power, transportation, and health care systems. Hybrid urban water supply systems that combine conventional, centralized water sources with distributed sources such as reclaimed wastewater have great potential to reduce energy consumption while minimizing freshwater withdrawal. In this study, we quantitatively analyze the impact of distributed direct potable reuse of municipal wastewater on the resiliency of urban water supply systems using the City of Houston’s municipal water system as a testbed. A hybrid system configuration that supplements centralized drinking water supplies with reclaimed wastewater from distributed treatment and reuse systems exhibits lower severity, range of impact, and duration of substandard performance compared to the centralized design. Benefits are most prominent in areas more susceptible to a variety of systemic or localized disruptions in the centralized system. The analyses reveal vulnerable components in the current system and identify appropriate mitigation strategies that account for local geographical constraints. Findings from this study provide quantitative evidence for the risks current urban water systems face, underscoring the necessity to consider alternative system configurations for better performance and higher resilience.

Guar gum, extracted from the seeds of Cyamopsis tetragonolobus, has gained prominence for its unique properties, forming a thick gel in water and releasing fatty acids through fermentation. Originating in Pakistan and India, it found industrial significance in the US during the 1940s. The galactomannan in guar's endosperm, a polysaccharide of d-mannose and d-galactose, imparts rapid solubility, pH stability, and biodegradability. Beyond its industrial applications, guar gum exhibits a myriad of health benefits. Delving into the botanical symphony of guar seeds reveals a poetic composition, and enzymatic exploration unravels the whimsical ballet of galactose side groups. Guar gum transcends its botanical origins to become a dietary sage, influencing serum cholesterol levels and aiding in weight management. Its journey through the digestive system orchestrates nuanced reductions in blood glucose and insulin, showcasing its potential for diabetes assistance.The manufacturing process involves splitting, hydration, and various treatments, resulting in guar gum's characteristics as a thickening agent with tasteless and odorless properties. Stability studies affirm its consistent performance over time, and its safety for target species, consumers, and the environment is established. Exploring guar gum's therapeutic applications reveals its potential in wound healing, inflammatory bowel disease treatment, and as a preventive measure against ulcers. Its role as a dietary fiber extends to managing irritable bowel syndrome symptoms, reducing blood sugar and cholesterol levels, promoting weight loss, and aiding in regular bowel movements. The article recommends a daily intake of 28g for adult women and 36g for men, achievable through the consumption of guar gum. Clinical studies demonstrate its positive impact on duodenal ulcers, providing relief, increasing satiety, and preventing symptoms. With its multifaceted applications, guar gum emerges as a fascinating substance intertwining chemistry, medicine, and industry.

In this article, First, we study the different orderings for k-idempotent Neutrosophic fuzzy matrices (NFM). With this idea, we also discover some properties for the k- Neutrosophic fuzzy matrices and demonstrate the connection between the generalized inverse and different orderings. We also go through some properties for the T-ordering, T- reverse ordering, minus, and space ordering in k-idempotent Neutrosophic fuzzy matrices using the g-inverses with numerical examples is given. Minus ordering is a partial ordering in the set of all regular fuzzy matrices. We have introduced ordering on k− idempotent fuzzy matrices and developed the theory of fuzzy matrix partial ordering. The minus ordering and k−space ordering are identical for k− idempotent matrices. Next, we introduce and study the concept of k–Idempotent Neutrosophic fuzzy matrix as a generalization of idempotent NFM via permutations. It is shown that a kidempotent NFM reduces to an idempotent NFM if and only if PK = KP. The Conditions for power symmetric NFM to be k-idempotent are derived and some related results are given.

Many data resources and network availability are needed for the smart city applications to execute at their highest efficiency level. Demand for these objects is driving up data traffic, which in turn is placing strain on the network. The 5G-enabled Internet of Things applications address these difficulties in smart city applications. This article proposes an Information-centric Networking System using Multiaccess Edge Computing (ICNMEC) to reduce computation offloading and optimize data traffic. This system's 5G network slicing approaches combine edge computing and software characterization. Internet of Things applications have been used to store and analyze the information gathered. In addition, an algorithm known as OMNM (Optimized Memory Network Management) is created to control network traffic better and better use of storage. With minimal delays, network traffic, and storage ratio, the system's modeling tests demonstrate that it is very efficient. This method can progressively enhance the pace at which one can access and use the system. The performance assessment shows that the proposed method can improve the efficiency ratio of 95.141%, storage utilization ratio of 60.1%, and access rate by 0.9, reducing network traffic and delay by 0.6.
Augustine on the City of God and the City of the World: A Preliminary Study of Augustine's Political Philosophy
Authors: Yu Kaien
Published: January 2024

Augustine's philosophy can be understood in two ways, namely love and justice. Love occupies a very important place in Augustine's thought. Love will determine what kind of city people are in, and love is more important than justice, so love and justice build two cities. The city of God composed of love and justice and the city of the world composed of love and injustice. The City of God represents an ideal society of high faith, spirituality and morality. The people of this city strive for the best, are guided by God's law, and their actions are guided by moral values. In the City of God, individual desires are constrained by virtue and devotion, and people pursue the happiness and harmony of the whole at the expense of individual interests. By contrast, secular cities represent secular interests, desires, and utilitarian societies. The residents in this city are more in pursuit of individual desire satisfaction and material benefits. They are driven by secular values and practical factors, and often ignore moral and ethical considerations in the pursuit of personal gain.
