El método fenomenológico en investigación educativa: una revisión sistemática
Authors: Castillo López María , Romero Sánchez Eduardo , Mínguez Vallejos Ramón
Published: November 2023

La fenomenología constituye, actualmente, una de bases teóricas clave de la investigación cualitativa. Su relevancia radica en investigar los fenómenos desde la experiencia vivida de los sujetos, lo cual la convierte en una metodología apropiada para el estudio de los significados e intenciones de las personas implicadas en acciones educativas. El objetivo principal del trabajo fue analizar la presencia y pertinencia de este método en investigaciones educativas cualitativas. Metodológicamente, se empleó la técnica de la revisión sistemática con objeto de determinar el ‘estado del arte’ en el uso de dicha metodología en investigaciones educativas de orientación cualitativa. Se determinó como periodo de análisis la década anterior, dado que se ha producido un otable incremento del empleo del método fenomenológico durante ese periodo de tiempo en Latinoamérica y España. Los análisis se centraron en tres áreas temáticas: qué piensa el o la docente sobre su actividad; qué significado le concede el alumnado a su experiencia educativa y, por último, cómo es percibida la relación interpersonal de ambas figuras educativas. Los resultados revelan que se abordan problemas de carácter socioeducativo, que predomina la interpretación frente a la mera descripción de lo investigado y, por último, que se tiende al uso de entrevistas en profundidad y diarios como principales herramientas de recogida de información. Se concluye que el método fenomenológico constituye una opción valiosa en la investigación educativa y se destaca que este tiende a ser aplicado en contextos educativos marginales o de especial vulnerabilidad, en tanto que facilita el acceso a la subjetividad de los participantes y su interpretación.

Authors: Castaño Suárez Marisol , Sánchez Trujillo Marcela Patricia , Viveros Chavarría Edison Francisco
Published: November 2023

Objetivo. Este artículo de revisión analiza la producción científica sobre prácticas de crianza en familias homoparentales de Latinoamérica. Es parte del proyecto “Dinámicas familiares y prácticas parentales en familias homoparentales de Medellín”. Metodología. El enfoque fue cualitativo y hermenéutico, y la estrategia fue documental. Resultados y conclusión. Primero, el término homoparentalidad no tiene grandes diferencias frente a parejas del mismo sexo que asumen los roles de padres y madres frente a sus hijos. Segundo, los autores coinciden en que la paternidad y la maternidad en parejas del mismo sexo son similares a la paternidad y la maternidad en parejas heterosexuales, es decir, su elección sexual no es determinante para la crianza de sus hijos. Según los estudios las parejas del mismo sexo llegan a ser funcionales y adecuadas para la crianza de sus hijos.
Análisis interseccional de la construcción social de la maternidad: historias de vida de mujeres cuencanas
Authors: Arias Palomeque Mireya
Published: November 2023

Objetivo. La maternidad como construcción social refleja distintas aristas y conflictos de una colectividad. Esta investigación buscó comprender cómo se construyen las distintas maternidades en Cuenca-Ecuador, cuando las consideramos asociadas a la etnicidad y a la clase, además del género. Metodología. Para esto, hemos establecido un enfoque epistemológico interseccional que utiliza como técnica las historias de vida. Resultados y conclusión. En Cuenca la maternidad continúa siendo una aspiración para las mujeres de clase media, pues aún se la entiende como una dimensión importante de la feminidad y, además, existe un tipo hegemónico de maternidad con elementos económicos, etarios, religiosos y culturales bien definidos. También, confirmamos que el sexismo es una realidad innegable en las interacciones de los cuencanos y determina, en gran medida, cómo las mujeres asumen su maternidad. En general, este estudio evidencia la necesidad de conformar estructuras sociales más amigables con el ejercicio de la maternidad.

Authors:   The Korean Logistics Research Association, Lee Ho-Kyung , Joo Jae-Hong , Lee Hyang-Sook
Published: November 2023

With the development of the logistics industry, there has been a rapid surge in truck traffic volume, giving rise to pronounced traffic congestion and a surge in traffic accidents. The fatality rate, which gauges the number of deaths per 100 traffic accidents, rising from 2.7 in 2020 to 2.8 in 2021. and was about twice higher than passenger cars and buses. This rate stood at nearly double that of passenger cars and buses. Although extant studies have underscored the significance of driver education as a pivotal factor in enhancing truck traffic safety, the realm of research concerning the formulation of comprehensive truck driver education programs remains underdeveloped. This study surveyed safety managers and truck drivers of freight transportation companies to identify the requirements for the development and operation of education programs such as the main contents, training period, and training method. Based on this, truck driver education programs (draft) are proposed by considering the truck drivers’ characteristics. In addition, 8 representative domestic freight transportation companies were selected to do in-depth interviews. Through this, the need for a truck driver traffic safety education program was confirmed. It was implied that legal and institutional support for education program’s development and management needs to be prepared. In light of these findings, this study elucidates a comprehensive strategy to foster the successful creation and streamlined operation of educational programs. The outcomes of this research are poised to serve as fundamental reference material for the formulation of targeted truck driver education programs within pertinent organizations, including the Korea Transportation Safety Authority, in the times ahead.

Authors: Kazakov Yu. N. , Stebakov I. N. , Shutin D. V. , Savin L. A.
Published: November 2023

The article analyzes the application of various machine learning methods for solving the problem of approximating the forces of fluid film bearing lubricating layer in static formulation. The initial data on the values of lubricating layer forces for different shaft positions were obtained using a model of a rotor-bearing system based on the numerical solution of the Reynolds equation, with account for the cavitation effect. Methods for reducing the amount of calculation required to obtain the necessary data set are determined on the basis of analyzing solution approximation accuracy with artificial neural networks. After that, approximation models were constructed using a number of other machine learning methods, and the accuracy of predictions as well as the duration of the training process were analyzed. Finally, conclusions were drawn about the most effective approaches to building such models.

Authors: Strelets M. Yu. , Tarasov A. Z. , Grishin I. A.
Published: November 2023

The problem of implementing the landing of a maneuverable aircraft by a pilot on an undamaged section of a runway of minimum length is considered. A method of landing the aircraft is proposed, including movement along the landing glide path with minimum speeds and angles of attack of 12-14 deg., the release of the landing parachute before touching the runway with the main wheels so that by the time the wheels touch the ground, the parachute fully opens, lowering the nose wheel and subsequent braking with maximum deceleration. A simplified mathematical model is considered that makes it possible to estimate the length of the run and the results of calculations for various parameters of the landing mass and the height of the release of the braking parachute. The results of such landings in flight tests are presented and compared with the results of calculated estimates. The calculated and experimental results obtained allow us to speak about the fundamental feasibility of the task of landing on a runway section limited in length.
Developing Learning Communities Online

Published: November 2023

While online course delivery in higher education has been increasing for several decades, students can face unique challenges in the digital environment. At a small university in Western Canada, online and blended learning have been a major focus for course delivery since 1995. Considering the risk that students could experience a lack of meaningful connection with their fellow students, the university launched a not-for-credit online learning module in 2006 that was designed to provide new-to-program students with resources and activities to encourage learning community development. Since the first module was launched, several programs at the university have adapted the original module to suit their specific needs. In this paper, we explore the experiences of graduate students in three programs over an eight-year period. Students completed surveys focused on the role of three module activities in helping them develop a supportive online learning community. The findings were organized under three areas that revealed elements of the module that worked well, areas for improvement, and suggestions for module additions. The recommendations call for making modules that are not-for-credit, mandatory, support both synchronous and asynchronous collaboration, use only one web-based entry point, consider time zones, and support students’ ability to balance their education with their out-of-school commitments. For those who may wish to include similar activities for their students, we have included a link in the paper to the Open Educational Resource that was developed in support of our research.
Aversion-related effects of kappa-opioid agonist U-50488 on neural activity and functional connectivity between amygdala, ventral tegmental area, prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and nucleus accumbens
Authors: Kalitin Konstantin Y. , Spasov Alexander A. , Mukha Olga Y.
Published: November 2023

Introduction: Among the various receptor systems in the brain, the opioid receptors have been the subject of extensive research due to their integral role in pain modulation, reward processing, and emotional regulation. The kappa-opioid receptor (KOR) system, in particular, stands apart due to its unique contribution to stress response, aversive behaviors, and dysphoric states. This paper aims to provide an understanding of the neural activity underlying the aversion-associated effects of the KOR agonist U-50488.

Materials and Methods: Rats underwent stereotaxic surgery to implant electrodes into the amygdala, ventral tegmental area, prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and nucleus accumbens. The rats were subjected to conditioned place preference test to measure aversion to U-50488. After that, local field potential (LFP) recordings were made. LFP data were processed and analyzed using spectral and coherence analysis methods. A stepwise multiple linear regression was employed to identify the LFP features most significantly correlated with aversion to U-50488.Results: The administration of U-50488 resulted in significant changes in LFP signals across multiple brain regions. These changes were particularly notable in the theta, gamma, and delta bands of brain waves (p<0.05). Theta and gamma activities were especially sensitive to the effects of U-50488. Connectivity calculations revealed shifts in coherence between brain regions, particularly highlighting the amygdala's involvement. While changes were also observed in the ventral tegmental area, prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and nucleus accumbens (p<0.05), they contributed less to aversion. Using the stepwise multiple linear regression method, we established a final model with the 3 most significant variables: (1) coherence between the amygdala and medial prefrontal cortex, (2) coherence between the amygdala and hippocampus, and (3) theta power in the amygdala.

Conclusion: Overall, the data provided insights into how electrical neural activity mediates aversion in response to KOR activation. The results showed that the severity of aversion can be reasonably predicted (r = 0.72±0.02, p = 0.0099) using LFP band power and functional connectivity data. We concluded that the amygdala is a brain region that contributes the most to the KOR agonist-induced aversion.
Сказки типа «Спор о верности жены» и древнерусские редакции “Повести о купце” Беняша Будного (эпизоды первой части)
Authors: Rzepnikowska Iwona
Published: November 2023

Сказки типа «Спор о верности жены» (СУС 882A) в русской народной традиции появились в результате фольклоризации древнерусских редакций Повести утешной о купце Беняша Будного, восходящей к Декамерону Джованни Боккаччо (9 новелла второго дня). В статье предпринимается попытка выявить формы соотношения эпизодов первой части сказок о верной жене с двумя из пяти литературными редакциями новеллы, т.е. с текстами Первоначальной и Сказочно-былинной редакциий. Проведенный анализ показывает, что, естественно, все они формировались еще и под влиянием фольклорного материала, в том числе сказочного и былинного (сказки о невинно оклеветанной купеческой дочери, былины о Ставре Годиновиче).

О литературных взаимоотношениях Д. И. Хвостова и Г. Р. Державина
Authors: Warda Anna
Published: November 2023

Статья посвящена одному эпизоду из литературной жизни России конца XVIII – начала XIX века – дружбе и соперничеству двух поэтов с разным уровнем таланта и степенью признания у современников – Д. И. Хвостова и Г. Р. Державина. Анализ взаимных посвящений и эпиграмм этих поэтов показал, что приятельские отношения не помешали более талантливому и прогрессивному Державину посмеиваться над старомодным и консервативным Хвостовым, отмечать слабость его произведений. Хвостов реагировал на это болезненно, но стоически и без злобы.

Validation of the Nursing Student Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Insertion Self-Confidence Scale
Authors: Marchionni Caroline , Lavigne Geneviève , Connolly Madolyn
Published: November 2023

Background and Purpose:It has been shown that nurse confidence predicts peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion success. However, intravenous cannulation is a challenging skill for entry to practice students. To date, there is no well-validated measure of nursing student self-confidence in learning and performing PIVC insertion. To address this measurement gap, we created and validated the Nursing Student PIVC Insertion Self-Confidence Scale.Methods:This study employed a descriptive, cross-sectional design. Three cohorts of undergraduate entry-to-practice students at a Canadian university were recruited and assessed during their studies. Two hundred eighty-one students completed the scale at the first data collection point and 146 at the second point. The structure of the tool was analyzed by exploratory factor analysis to extract factors and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was employed for validation.Results:CFA revealed a three-factor scale (PIVC Cannulation Confidence, PIVC Preparation and Securement Confidence, and PIVC Learning Confidence). It has 15 items with satisfactory goodness of fit indices.Conclusions:The Nursing Student PIVC Insertion Self-Confidence Scale is a valid and reliable scale to measure nursing students’ confidence in learning about and performing PIVC insertions.
The acquisition of the mother tongue in between languages
Authors: Castro Maria Fausta Pereira
Published: November 2023

Dans cet article, nous partirons de l'analyse de certains faits liés à l'acquisition du langage qui mettent en lumière l'imbrication des langues dans l'acquisition de la langue maternelle. Dans certaines conditions, des matérialités linguistiques provenant de plus d'une langue entrent dans le processus de capture de l’infans par le langage (LEMOS, 2002). Nous partirons de faits linguistiques observés dans la parole chez deux enfants de trois ans - une fillette brésilienne et un garçon franco-brésilien- en contact avec le français et le portugais brésilien. Des expériences temporaires ou continues, vécues par des enfants en contact avec plus d'une langue, fournissent des preuves empiriques et soulèvent des questions théoriques qui sont développées dans une enquête sur les effets des langues de l'enfance sur le fonctionnement linguistique des adultes. L'histoire du sujet parlant et de sa langue maternelle est marquée par des représentations de son acquisition et par des imbrications dues à l’exposition à d'autres langues. Ses effets ne sont pas prévisibles. L'inconscient ne crée pas d'obstacles au mélange des langues et peut retenir des mots, des expressions et d'autres fragments d'une langue de l'enfance qui devient par la suite étrangère (MELMAN, 1992). Ce serait le cas de l'un de ces enfants, aujourd’hui jeune adulte.  Sur la base des hypothèses soulevées sur l'acquisition des langues et à partir d'un autre poste d’observation, nous nous intéresserons aux écrivains et aux poètes qui ont fait de la trajectoire linguistique vécue la substance même de leur œuvre. Affectés par la "mémoire représentée" (PAYER, 2006) d'un passé reconstruit, dans lequel la langue maternelle a été réduite au silence ou vécue comme telle, ils élisent une langue maternelle adoptée tardivement avec laquelle ils tissent leurs œuvres. Elias Canetti et Aharon Appelfeld sont deux auteurs caractéristiques de cette expérience. Tous deux éprouvent le besoin de nommer la langue de création littéraire comme langue maternelle. L'analyse de ces faits met en lumière les propos de Milner (1990[1978]) sur le terme lalangue : il s'agit d'une langue mise en valeur par la fonction poétique et dont la figuration la plus directe est la langue maternelle.

From Textuality To Discursity; The Hermeneutics of Quran Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd
Authors: Sulaiman Ahmad
Published: November 2023

The agenda of Islamic renewal has declined due to the stagnation of the Al-Qur'an reading model that has occurred for thousands of years. Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd, an Egyptian intellectual, sees this happening because of the overlap between text and meaning as a consequence of the sanctification of the verses of the Qur'an as the word of God which contains absolute truth and creates the impossibility of interpretation beyond the literal meaning of the text. Responding to these conditions, Abu Zayd presents a thesis regarding the textuality of the Qur'an or that the Muslim holy book is a cultural product that contains objective meaning which must be revealed through an understanding of horizontal interactions with the socio-historical world. The implication is that the Qur'an is a textus receptus (received text/mushaf) which must be approached by borrowing various methodologies such as hermeneutics, semiotics and language. Only then, according to Abu Zayd, can the objective meaning of the text free from ideology and subjectivism be achieved. This paper will elaborate on the phenomenon of impasse in the meaning of the Qur'an along with Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd's methodological-hermeneutical proposal regarding both the textuality and the discoursiveness of the Qur'an. Next, some application of Abu Zayd's hermeneutics in usury, polygamy and hakimiyat will be elaborated.

Authors: Beal Eliza W. , Gorji Leva , Volney Jaclyn , Sova Lindsey , McAlearney Ann Scheck , Tsung Allan
Published: November 2023

Aims: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer. While patients who are known to be at high risk for HCC should be under surveillance, only 20% of eligible patients in the United States are surveilled. The aim of this study was to identify providers’ perspectives about patient-, provider- and system-level barriers to surveillance for HCC among high-risk patients and to examine provider knowledge and attitudes related to HCC surveillance. We also explored interventions providers suggested as ways to improve HCC surveillance. Methods: Purposive sampling was used to recruit physicians and nurse practitioners in hepatology, gastroenterology, and primary care (internal and family medicine) from one academic medical center to participate in semi-structured interviews. Interviews were transcribed verbatim, and analyzed deductively and inductively to reveal emergent themes. Results: 22 informants were interviewed. During these interviews, several important themes emerged, including: (1) Provider comfort with managing chronic liver disease and the relationships between hepatology, gastroenterology, infectious disease, and primary care providers; (2) Provider knowledge of guidelines for HCC surveillance in high-risk patients and their knowledge about the impact that HCC surveillance can have; (3) How providers discuss HCC surveillance with their high-risk patients; (4) Provider-Level barriers to surveillance; (5) System-level barriers to surveillance; (6) COVID-19; (7) Patient-level barriers to surveillance, and (8) Suggested interventions to improve HCC surveillance rates. Conclusions: In designing interventions to improve HCC surveillance rates of high-risk patients in the United States, there are important targets at the patient, provider and system levels.

Perception of Food Risk of Entomophagy Among Higher Education Students: Exploring Insects as a Novel Food Source
Authors: Cantalapiedra Fernando , Juan-Garcia Ana , Juan Cristina
Published: November 2023

Edible insects can diversify diets, improve livelihoods, contribute to food and nutrition security, and have a smaller ecological impact. European Union has categorized insects as novel food, and recently, in 2021 and 2022, two species: Tenebrio molitor and Acheta domesticus have been authorized for commercialization. Acceptance and perception of food risk derived from insect consumption vary depending on factors impacting insect consumption acceptability, including neophobic tendencies, gender differences, familiarity, and gastronomic perceptions. The aim of this work was to evaluate the perception and acceptance of edible insects by exploring those factors. The study was carried out on higher education students from Universities from Valencia (Spain). Students recognize insects for their high nutritional value, particularly protein content, and have varying knowledge levels about specific nutritional components. In terms of labeling and marketing, removing health and sustainability benefits from packaging can improve consumer responses. Most respondents prefer clear labeling of insect derivatives, quality certification seals, and complete information about insect content. Students consider marketing and knowledge as significant influencers of insect consumption.
In summary, the text highlights the multifaceted nature of insect consumption acceptability. These insights offer valuable perspectives on insect consumption dynamics.

Solar flares are broadly classified as impulsive or gradual. Ions accelerated in a gradual flare are thought to be accelerated through a shock acceleration mechanism, but the particle acceleration process in an impulsive flare is still largely unexplored. To understand the acceleration process, it is necessary to measure the high-energy gamma-rays and neutrons produced by the impulsive flare. Under such circumstances, on November 7, 2004, a huge X2.0 flare occurred on the solar surface, where ions were accelerated to energies greater than 10 GeV. The accelerated primary protons collided with the solar atmosphere and produced line gamma-rays and neutrons. These particles were received as neutrons and line gamma-rays, respectively. Neutrons of a few GeV, on the other hand, decay to produce secondary protons while traveling 0.06 au in the solar-terrestrial space. These secondary protons arrived at the magnetopause. Although the flux of secondary protons is very low, the effect of collecting secondary protons arriving in a wide region of the magnetosphere (the Funnel or Horn effect) has resulted in significant signals being received by the solar neutron telescope at Mt. Sierra Negra (4,600 m). This information suggests that ions on the solar surface are accelerated to over 10 GeV with an impulsive flare.

Postmenopausal abnormal uterine bleeding is a common clinical problem addressed in gynecological practice and should prompt clinical investigation due to the significant prevalence of malignant and premalignant lesions of endometrium in this age group. Nevertheless, other causes should be considered since its diagnostic and therapeutic management may differ considerably. Here, we present a case of a colouterine fistula due to chronic diverticulitis presenting with postmenopausal abnormal uterine bleeding. This is extremely rare and is caused by the rupture of a diverticular abscess into the uterine wall, resulting in an inflammatory adhesion of the colon and uterus, with necrosis and subsequent fistula formation. The clinical presentation is variable and may include abdominal pain, gastrointestinal tract symptoms, vaginal discharge and abnormal uterine bleeding. The laboratory and imaging techniques may be not completely conclusive and definitive diagnosis can be made intraoperatively. There are different treatment options, being the en bloc resection and primary anastomosis the most used, allowing complete treatment. The prognosis for a colouterine fistula secondary to diverticulitis is excellent after surgery. This case highlights the importance of clinical suspicion of an unusual cause of uterine bleeding and an effective and multidisciplinary approach that allowed complete surgical treatment and patient recovery.
On Extending Lr-Norm Based Derivatives to Intuitionistic Fuzzy Set

Published: November 2023

Study of differential equation theory has come a long way with applications in the various fields. In 1961, Zygmund and Calderón introduced the notion of derivatives on metric Lr which proved to be better in applications than approximate derivatives. But most of the studies involved are on fuzzy set theory, so it seems likely that intuitionistic fuzzy Lr - norm - based derivatives deserve study. In the study, the fuzzy derivative is extended to intuitionistic fuzzy derivatives with respect.to Lr - norm - based derivatives using intuitionistic fuzzy number valued functions. The efficacy of the proposed method is established by proving the associated theorems along with numerical examples. Further, the Cauchy problem is also studied with respect to intuitionistic fuzzy setting.

Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe insulin resistance, resulting in early-onset diabetes mellitus. We are reporting the first case of Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome in a Paraguayan patient. The patient is a 5-year-old girl who presented with hypertrichosis, acanthosis nigricans, and nephrocalcinosis. Genetic testing by NGS revealed two pathogenic variants in exons 2 and 18 of the INSR gene; c.332G>T (p. Gly111Val) and c.3485C>T (p. Ala1162Val), in combined heterozygosis. The novel INSR c. 332G>T variant leads to the substitution of glycine to valine at position 111 in the protein, and multiple in silico software predicted it as pathogenic. The c. 3485C>T variant leads to the substitution of alanine to valine at position 1162 in the protein previously described for insulin resistance and Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome. The management of Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome is particularly challenging in children, and the use of metformin is often limited by its side effects. The patient was managed with nutritional measures due to the early age of onset. This report expands the knowledge of Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome to the Paraguayan population and adds a novel pathogenic variant to the existing literature.

The widespread use of epoxy resin (ER) in industry, owing to its excellent properties, aligns with the global shift toward greener resources and energy-efficient solutions, where utilizing metal oxides in 3D printed polymer parts can offer extended functionalities across various industries. ZnO concentrations in polyurethane acrylate composites impacted adhesion and thickness of DLP samples, with 1 wt.% achieving a thickness of 3.99±0.16 mm, closest to the target thickness of 4 mm, while 0.5 wt.% ZnO samples exhibited the lowest deviation in average thickness (±0.03 mm). Tensile strength in digital light processed (DLP) composites with ZnO remained consistent, ranging from 23.29 MPa (1 wt.%) to 25.93 MPa (0.5 wt.%), with an increase in ZnO concentration causing a reduction in tensile strength to 24.04 MPa and a decrease in the elastic modulus to 2001 MPa at 2 wt.% ZnO. The produced DLP samples, with their good corrosion resistance in alkaline environments, are well-suited for applications as protective coatings on tank walls. Customized DLP techniques can enable their effective use as structural or functional elements, such as in Portland cement concrete walls, floors and ceilings for enhanced durability and performance.

Published: November 2023

In this study, the generality and prediction accuracy of a generalised series model for large eddy simulation of premixed and non-premixed turbulent combustion is explored. The model is based on Taylor series expansion of the chemical source term in scalar space and implemented into OpenFOAM. The mathematical model does not depend on the combustion regimes, and has the correct limiting behaviour. The numerical error sources are outlined and analysed. The model is first applied to a piloted methane/air non-premixed jet flame (Sandia Flame D). The statistical (time-averaged and RMS) results agree well with experimental measurements, particularly with regard to the mixture fraction, velocity, temperature, and concentrations of major species CH4, CO2, H2O, and O2. The concentrations of intermediates CO and H2 are over-predicted, due to the limitations of the reduced reaction mechanism employed. Then, a Bunsen piloted flame is simulated. Most of the statistical properties of both reactive species and progress variable are well reproduced. The only major discrepancy evident is in the temperature, which is attributed to the experimental uncertainties of temperature fields in the pilot stream. These findings have demonstrated the model`s generality for both premixed and non-premixed combustion simulation, as well as the accuracy of prediction of reactive species distribution.

Lunar grabens are the largest tensional linear structures on the Moon. In this paper, 17 grabens were selected to investigate the dips and displacement-length ratios (γ) of graben-bounding faults. Several topographic profiles were generated from selected grabens to measure their rim elevation, width and depth through SLDEM2015 (+LOLA) data. The differences in rim elevation (∆h) and width (∆W) between two topographic profiles on each graben were calculated, yielding 146 sets of data. We plotted ∆h versus ∆W for each and calculated the dip angle (α) of graben-bounding faults. A dip of 39.9° was obtained using the standard linear regression method. In order to improve accuracy, large error data was removed based on error analysis. The results 49.4° and 52.5° were derived by the standard linear regression and mean methods, respectively. Based on the depth and length of grabens, the γ value of the graben-bounding normal fault is also studied in this paper. The γ value is 3.6×10-3 for lunar normal faults according to the study of grabens and the Rupes Recta normal fault. After obtaining the values of α and γ, the increase in lunar radius caused by the formation of grabens was estimated. We suggest that the lunar radius has increased by around 130 m owing to the formation of grabens. This study could aid in the understanding of normal fault growth and provide important constraints on the thermal evolution of the Moon.
