Introduction: Hypertension and diabetes mellitus affect a large number of patients and can significantly influence their life expectancy. Changes in metabolic and oxidative stress parameters are common in these pathologies, contributing to associated complications. The aim of the study was assessment of relationship between laboratory parameters and their role in evaluation of cardiovascular risk, and possible gender-related differences in the protective factors.

Material and methods: Blood samples were collected from hypertensive patients with/without diabetes mellitus admitted to the Cardiovascular Rehabilitation Clinic in Tîrgu Mureș and controls without these pathologies. Biochemical analyses were performed on Konelab analyzer (glycemia, lipid profile, kidney function tests, zinc, hsCRP). Oxidative stress markers, such as serum malondialdehyde (MDA), oxidized (GSSG) and reduced glutathione (GSH) were evaluated using an HPLC-UV/VIS technique at GEP UMPhST. Statistical analysis was performed by GraphPad InStat3.

Results: Mean age of hypertensive patients (n=131) was 69.44 ± 9.02 years, 45.8% males, 31.3% being diabetics. 74.1% of the studied patients had zinc deficiency, 19.8% presented slightly elevated hsCRP. The control group included 24 nonhypertensive/nondiabetic patients of similar age. Average GSH was significantly lower (p=0.0002) in hypertensive patients, 1.89 ± 0.82 µg/ml, compared to the control group (3.23 ± 0.49 µg/ml), and no correlation could be observed between GSH and MDA values. GSH concentration was significantly higher in males (p=0.0395) and HDL-cholesterol significantly higher in females (p=0.0132). A negative correlation was observed between serum triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol concentration.

Conclusions: Gender differences are present in the level of protective factors against cardiovascular diseases, while oxidative stress is intensified in hypertensive/diabetic patients.

Published: October 2022

Quality Control (QC) in Romania is regulated by the Order of the Minister of Health no. 1608/2022 that modifies the previous Order 1301/2007. The new version of the Order introduces a more scientific approach by requesting the laboratories to assess test performance and then elaborate an appropriate internal QC plan. The aim of this study was to demonstrate how to design a QC plan for complete blood count (CBC) in an Emergency Laboratory with continuous activity, in order to comply with the new Order 1608/2022. QC data obtained over a three-month period (April-June 2022) from the Sysmex XN-1000 instrument of the Emergency Laboratory of the County Emergency Clinical Hospital of Târgu Mureș were included. In order to establish an appropriate QC plan, two models were applied and the following parameters were calculated: the number of daily QC runs (N), the probability of false rejection (Pfr), the QC frequency (run size), and the required QC rules. White blood cells achieved high performance, while Hematocrit performance was poor. Different levels of performance were achieved for Platelets. We emphasize that, when all parameters are measured on the same instrument, QC frequency and Pfr should be adjusted in order to develop a QC plan that “fits” all the parameters of the CBC as a whole. In our Emergency Laboratory, the calculated QC plan for CBC is N=2, Pfr=0.03, multi-rule 1:3s/2:2s/R:4s, and a run size of 95 samples which is approximately the same as the number of CBCs performed during one 12-hour shift.

The assurance of hospital fee service (unit cost) is still calculated using conventional methods. Themethod is inappropriate because it produces inaccurate rates, providing distorted cost information, either undercosting or over costing, which results in errors in decision making and organizational continuity. Efforts to reducedistortion due to the use of this conventional method is to use a new approach that uses an activity basis, namely,Activity Based Costing, which can accurately measure the costs that come out of each activity to produce the correctrate for each type of service action in hospital. The study aims to analyze unit cost calculations using the activitybasedcostingmethodtosetnewratesandtoexplainpolicyproceduresforthelatestratesframeworkatthedentalandoral clinic of RSGM FKG UNAND.

Diagnosis and management chronic anemia in herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 infection
Authors: MAILIZA Fitria
Published: October 2022

Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) is usually the cause of oral infection. This infection oftenprecedes the development of this chronic anemia, and it is reasonable that the blood in circulation through virusinfectedtissue becomes contaminated with virus particles on the red cell surface. These virus-contaminated redblood cells may stimulate the reticuloendothelial system to produce antibodies that destroy the red blood cells andlead to anemia. Describe the clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, laboratory examination, diagnosis, and therapiesfor managing Chronic Anemia in HSV-1 infections. (HSV) Infection 1 causes infections above the waist majority oforal and pharyngeal and can be transmitted through direct contact with infected individuals. Prodromal symptomspreceded HSV-1 infection for 1 or 2 days consisting of fever, headache, malaise, arthralgia, and submandibularlymphadenopathy; subsequently, small blisters appear and quickly rupture, leaving shallow round discrete ulcers atall portions of the mouth. Diagnosis of anemia and HSV type 1 infection requires a complete history, clinicalexamination, and laboratory examinations (anti-HSV 1 IgG and IgM) or HSV isolation. Symptomatic treatment withantipyretics/analgesics, local antiseptics, vitamins, a soft diet, and adequate fluid intake is usually sufficient.Antiviral medication, either systemically or topically, may help if the infection is identified early in the prodromalstage. Conclusion: Chronic Anemia and HSV Type I infection should be diagnosed and managed with completeanamnesis, clinical manifestation, and laboratory examination.KEYWORDS: Infection, HSV-1, Anemia, Diagnosis, Management

Orthodontic treatment aims to improve the oral health of the patient. Still, orthodontic treatment canalso cause problems in the oral cavity, such as the appearance of traumatic ulcers caused by the use of orthodonticappliances. The following describes a chronic traumatic ulcer in a patient using fixed orthodontic appliances. CaseReport: A female patient aged 22 years complained of thrush after using braces. Clinical examination revealed asingle ulcerated lesion on the right buccal mucosa of the upper molar region adjacent to the buccal tube of theorthodontic appliance. The patient was then treated with topical corticosteroids and chlorhexidine gluconate. Thepatient was also consulted by an orthodontic specialist for further treatment using orthodontic wax to help protectagainst friction between the wires and the mucosa. The lesions healed on the third visit.: Orthodontic treatmentoften causes injuries to the oral mucosa. It is because the orthodontic appliances used can rub against the oralmucosa so that they are very susceptible to causing traumatic ulcers. Traumatic ulcers arising from orthodontictreatment are generally chronic, requiring comprehensive treatment to reduce patient complaints. Conclusion:Treatment of chronic traumatic ulcers due to the use of fixed orthodontic appliances should be carried outcomprehensively by involving an oral medicine specialist and an orthodontist to provide maximum treatment fortraumatic ulcers and reduce patient complaints.KEYWORDS: Traumatic Ulcer, Orthodontic Appliance, Treatment

Object and purpose of research. The object of research is a polymer composite material of syntactic type, which is a heterogeneous medium consisting of a polymer matrix filled with spherical inclusions – micro spheres. The purpose of work is to increase the strength/weight ratio of syntactic under hydrostatic pressure based on the analysis of processes at the material micro structure level, which let us identify the influence of initial components (micro spheres) and polymer matrix on the material density and ultimate state. Subject matter and methods. The Initial data are syntactic composition and structure as well as characteristics of its components. Numerical studies were performed using the earlier developed structural model of syntactic deformation and failure implemented into С++ software. Main results. The elastic and strength characteristics of the matrix and mico sphere glass are shown to have influence on the syntactic density and strength. Based on the size distribution of micro spheres and its influence on these characteristics, recommendations are formulated regarding development of the bi-dispersed mixture of MS-BP micro spheres. Application of such mixture made it possible to develop a new syntactic foam with required density and strength characteristics. Conclusion. The newly developed numerical method for prediction of syntactic characteristics takes into consideration the size distribution in micro sphere structures and allows optimized development of novel materials. The characteristics of new material obtained on the basis of developed guidelines have been verified by experiments.
Democratizing the Museum: Disability and the Need for Accessibility
Authors: Wang Qiping
Published: October 2022

Unbothered by disruption of body and mind, the abled body moves and acts freely without consequences. This abled body, within the vernaculars of visual culture, represents a dogmatic portrayal of naturalism that privileges itself as the normative representation of idealism. However, these sentiments affirm bias for the disabled body, as well as sensory and mental impairment, as undesirable. Historically, politically, and culturally marked by their differences, these polarities of disability and ability reveal the systematic ableism that is presented within the exhibition of museums and galleries. By examining the relationship between disability and museum studies, this paper looks at how exhibitions engage with disabilities in relation to ableism and the notions of the ideal citizen. Considering the historical, social, and political discourse of disability, this paper considers how exhibitions can confront the stigma of disability by analyzing the relationships between visual culture and disability, the universal survey museum, and its exclusion of the other. Through close examination of accessible galleries, such as Tangled Art + Disability Gallery, I argue that the democratization of museums through the inclusion of others creates inclusivity that reflects the new era of museum studies and the current construction of identity politics.

Authors: Phuong Nguyen Thi Bich , Tham Duong My
Published: October 2022

It is universally acknowledged that learners are encouraged to construct their own knowledge through project-based learning as this teaching method reinforces their critical thinking, active learning, independent work, and/or collaboration. This paper, therefore, aimed to investigate how ninth graders at a Ho Chi Minh City-based bilingual school self-evaluated their autonomous learning skills during the use of project-based learning in a Media course. Thirty-five students were involved in responding to a questionnaire and writing diaries, and six of them participated in semi-structured interviews. Descriptive statistics in terms of mean and standard deviation was opted for processing the quantitative data from the questionnaire while content analysis was used to analyze the qualitative data garnered from the interviews and diaries. The quantitative results showed quite high mean scores, i.e., the surveyed students were able to conduct autonomous learning skills during the project-based Media class. The findings further indicated the development of autonomous learning skills (e.g., making plans for project fulfillment, self-overcoming the learning challenges, expressing more ideas, and self-assessing their learning capacity) rated by the participants. However, other skills such as goal setting and self-monitoring remained unchanged.
READING STRATEGY TAXONOMIES: AN OVERVIEW
Authors: Thi Bich Thuy Nguyen
Published: October 2022

The crucial importance of reading in any language has stimulated a noticeable growth in the number of studies on reading strategies used in second and foreign language reading to improve readers’ comprehension. This paper examined the classifications of reading strategies by providing a variety of reading strategy taxonomies by different authors. The comparisons of the most well-known reading strategy taxonomies by Oxford (1990) and three other best-known ones by O’Malley and Chamot (1990), Mokhtari and Sheorey (2002), and Oxford (2013) were also demonstrated clearly. Two questionnaires, one of which was modified by Nguyen (2016) from the one by Sheorey and Mokhtari (2002) were also presented as useful recommendations for researchers in the field. The results of the research offer a quite comprehensive insight into reading strategy taxonomies, which might be useful for researchers in the field of reading strategies in choosing an appropriate theoretical framework for their studies in the future.

This study was performed in 18 tea gardens in North Bengal, India, from 2012 to 2017. The data were pooled to investigate the relationship with soil physico-chemical properties, phyto-constituents, antioxidant attributes and age of the tea bushes and principal component analysis (PCA). PCA and dendro-hit maps were also performed with each region. The 28 principal components were chosen based on their eigen values, explaining the total data variance for tea in Dooars, Terai and Darjeeling hill. In almost all cases, composite soil physico-chemical attributes were heavily loaded on the second principal component and clustered, as visual evidenced by the dendro-hit map. Different attributes were significantly correlated each other in case of Terai i.e. (value of “r’’ at P<0.01 level) clay fraction (0.778), electrical conductivity (0.618), N (0.777), S (0.748), P (0.514 ppm), flavour index (0.918), total polyphenol (0.687) DPPH (0.794), nitric oxide (0.913), anti-lipid peroxidation (0.717) and metal chelating (0.665). In Dooars region, attributes were significantly correlated with silt (0.718), pH (0.875), P (0.615 ), chloride (0.858), TP (0.776), flavonol (0.923), quinone (0.666), tannins (0.865), DPPH (0.536), superoxide (0.576), ABTS (0.520) and MC (0.777) and in the case of Darjeeling hills, attributes were highly correlated with clay (0.812), sand (0.818), silt fraction (0.974), K (0.932), S (0.999), MC of soil (0.671), TP (0.853), tannins (0.912), DPPH (0.624), ABTS (0.661) and MC (0.633) repectively.

Authors: Patil Somashekhargouda , Devasia Jeena , Daniel George , Rao N. Surya Prakash
Published: October 2022

The study was undertaken to analyze the behaviour of coffee under changing climatic conditions in different coffee liaison zones of Karnataka State, India, during 2017-2020. Sample estates were identified based on elevation and rainfall patterns in different zones of the Chikkamagaluru and Hassan districts. The leaf growth parameters, bean characteristics and yield components were recorded in all the sample estates. Correlation studies indicated a significant positive relationship between the elevation, rainfall with specific leaf area (r = +0.912) and productivity (r = 0.475) during the pre-monsoon period. The monthly summer rainfall during March and April showed a significant correlation with yield in robusta (r = 0.511) and arabica (r = 0.451), indicating that blossom shower during this period significantly influenced the productivity of coffee. The studies between elevation, the quantum of rainfall and bean defect parameters indicated a significant (p<0.05) positive correlation. A positive relationship was also found between elevation and peaberry production in both robusta (r = 0.716) and arabica coffee (r= 0.456), respectively. However, there was also a significant relationship between rainfall (2020) and Jollu percentage (r = 0.386) in robusta coffee, indicating that higher elevation and rainfall-induced more peaberry content and Jollu percentage under changing climatic conditions. The overall result indicated that changes in climatic conditions such as excess rainfall and continuous soil moisture led to more vegetative growth than reproductive growth. This also produced more bean abnormalities which in turn affected the yield and quality of the coffee.
Molecular characterisation and structural assessment of an RXLR effector from Phytophthora palmivora, the coconut bud rot pathogen
Authors: Gangaraj K.P. , Rajesh M.K.
Published: October 2022

Phytophthora species are phytopathogenic oomycetes that damage a wide variety of crops. Phytophthora delivers effectors, which are secretory proteins, into the host cells. Effectors promote infection by reprogramming the host cellular machinery and are key determinants of oomycete virulence. The major class of Phytophthora effector proteins contains the RXLR motif. In this study, we have carried out the molecular and structural characterisation of an RXLR effector (RXLR6744) from a virulent P. palmivora isolated from bud rot disease-affected coconut palm. The open reading frame (ORF) of the RXLR6744, amplified using RT-PCR, had a length of 411 bp. The gene was found to encode a predicted protein of 136 amino acids and had a molecular weight of 15.52 kDa. Phylogenetic analysis of the amino acid sequence revealed that it was closely related to RXLR proteins from P. palmivora (causing black pod disease in cocoa) and related species P. megakarya. Topology analysis revealed that the protein was composed of six α-helices. The structural prediction was undertaken by computer-aided homology modelling. From the Ramachandran plot analysis, it could be observed that the majority (96.3%) of amino acids were present in the preferred region, 3.7 per cent of amino acid residues were present in the allowed region, and no residues were observed in the disallowed region. The structure showed an average quality of 94.4 per cent, indicating it to be a high-quality structure. This study provides the detailed characterisation of an RXLR effector from P. palmivora. It will aid the elucidation of its role in pathogenesis and facilitate further refined investigations of the structure/function relationships of oomycete effectors.
El Presidente y las Cortes: Las Altas Cortes en Colombia y sus relaciones con el poder Ejecutivo
Authors: Duque Daza Javier
Published: October 2022

Uno de los pilares centrales de las democracias contemporáneas es la consideración del Policentrismo de poderes, el hecho de que la autoridad pública sea ejercida mediante instituciones separadas y autónomas, lo cual, se supone, permite crear una esfera de debates y decisiones que comportan mutuos controles, pesos y contrapesos. A partir de esta premisa, la independencia judicial constituye una garantía fundamental con la que deben contar los Estados constitucionales, lo cual le permite a la sociedad salvaguardarse y protegerse de posibles abusos del poder político. Bajo la premisa de la separación e independencia de poderes, la estructura institucional colombiana incluye dentro de su entramado cuatro altos tribunales: el Consejo de Estado, el Consejo Superior de la judicatura, la Corte Constitucional y la Corte Suprema de justicia. El presente estudio aborda las relaciones entre el poder Ejecutivo y las dos Altas Cortes, la Constitucional, con solo dos décadas de existencia, y la Corte Suprema de justicia, institución bicentenaria.

Inclínate ante la madera y la piedra

Published: October 2022

Debo el nombre de este libro a Charles Bukowski. El hombre lo menciona en su diario El capitán salió a comer y los marineros tomaron el barco. Allí cuenta cómo se hallaba buscando un título para su nuevo poemario. El autor de Erecciones, eyaculaciones, exhibiciones pensó en La Biblia de los desencantados, Confesiones de un hombre lo bastante loco como para vivir con bestias y recordó varios de otros escritores: Memorias del subsuelo, El corazón es un cazador solitario y el que nos ocupa, original de Josephine Lawrence, quien bautizó así un libro suyo en 1938. No dudé un instante en inclinarme ante esa frase y apoderarme de la pequeña joya. Quien escribe leyendo, recordando, plagiando, juzgando, sampleando e interpretando, no debe sentirse culpable por apropiarse de algo más. Los relatos que siguen son “literatura”. Los personajes son ficticios, como ejercicio de ficción es haber mejorado la belleza de mi ciudad natal añadiéndole gente de carne y hueso al paisaje desolado. C.P.M.
Los días de la fiebre, de Andrés Felipe Solano: pandemia, panoptismo y disciplinamiento
Authors: Osorio María Eugenia
Published: October 2022

El objetivo de este artículo es analizar Los días de la fiebre (2020), del escritor colombiano Andrés Felipe Solano, obra que identificamos como una narración fronteriza que conserva elementos de diario, crónica y testimonio. Por ser uno de los primeros ejemplos literarios que recrea hechos relacionados con la pandemia de la COVID-19, nos interesa señalar la presencia de algunos tópicos de las narrativas de pandemias y desentrañar una sociedad en la que, en nombre de un discurso de la bioseguridad, con la asistencia de un sofisticado sistema de redes informáticas y georreferenciación, se vulnera el derecho a la intimidad. Partimos de la hipótesis de que las formas de seguimiento y control del virus coinciden con las técnicas del panoptismo estudiadas por Michel Foucault, cuya función es disciplinar. En otras palabras, en ella encontramos un individuo que, al margen de la estructura arquitectónica concebida por Jeremy Bentham, ha introyectado el sentimiento de ser vigilado constantemente. Paralelo a lo anterior, nos enfrentamos a una sociedad en la que sobrecoge la asepsia ante la muerte y el dolor.

التنوع السكاني في سوريا 1920-1946
Authors: Abdulla Salih Hassan , Khelil Ahmed Esmaal
Published: October 2022

إن المجتمع السوري كسائر المجتمعات الأخرى بشكل عام والمجتمع العربي على نحو خاص، يتكون من مجاميع سكانية تختلف في انتماءاتها الدينية والمذهبية والاثنية، كما يختلفون في توزيعهم الجغرافي في البلاد السورية، بين بيئات مدنية وريفية وجبلية، الى جانب اختلاف احوالهم السياسية والاقتصادية والاجتماعية. تميز هذا التنوع الى حد كبير بالتفاهم والانسجام مع احترام خصوصيات كل فئة، واعتزاز كل طائفة او اقلية بانتمائها العرقي والديني واستمر هذا الوضع الى ان تغير بشكل واضح مع وقوع سوريا تحت الانتداب الفرنسي.
          لقد بدى واضحاً ان سياسية الانتداب الفرنسي كانت في تذبذب واضح بين الحفاظ على وحدة سوريا من جهة، وتشجيع النزعات الانفصالية وتكريس الطائفية من جهة أخرى، يعود ذلك لطبيعة المصالح الفرنسية ومساراتها التي تتركز بشكل أساسي على التحكم والسيطرة في المجتمع السوري، ويدل ذلك ان خصوصية الطائفة هي من تحدد مسار سياسة الانتداب في سوريا عموماً.
          حاول الانتداب نزع صفة المجتمع او الامة عن عموم السكان واستبدالها بتكريس مفهوم الكيانات الاثنية والطائفية، ورغم ان هذه السياسة تم مواجهتها من المجتمع السوري الا اننا لا يمكن ان ننكر ان حجم هذه المقاومة لم تكن بذات القوة لسياسة الانتداب الفرنسي ويعود ذلك الى أسباب عديدة سياسية واقتصادية وثقافية تراكمت جراء الوجود العثماني ثم الانتداب الفرنسي.

Al-Tadhaad 'One Word with Two Opposite Meanings' as a Lexical Challenge in Arabic-English Translation
Authors: Muhammed Abdullah Abdulsattar Mahmood
Published: October 2022

The current paper addresses itself to scrutinize the phenomenon of Al-Tadhaad 'one word with two opposite meanings' with reference to Arabic-English translation. It goes undeniable that Al-Tadhaad is based on the investigation of the opposite meanings of one word. Furthermore, in Arabic, Al-Tadhaad is dramatically different from antonymy and polysemy in English. Antonymy is mainly concerned with the oppositeness of two independent words such as big/ small, fast/ slow, etc. As for polysemy, it is restricted to the different and related meanings of one word. So, English lacks even the convenient terminology for such phenomenon. This study verifies that the phenomenon of Al-Tadhaad is widely utilized in the Glorious Quran and generally in the Arabic books.
البيان في آيات الشرك ( دراسة بلاغية)

لم تكن علوم البلاغة (المعاني، والبيان، والبديع)، معروفة في العصر الجاهلي عند العرب، ولكن المروي في أدبهم الذي نقله العلماء يحمل في طياته ما يصور فصاحة لسانهم، وقوة بلاغتهم ، وكيف كانوا يجيدون القول بكل فنونه وبلاغته من تراكيب معنوية، ولطائف بيانية، وفنون بديعية، ولعل علم البيان الذي يخص بحثنا له اليد الطولى في الكشف عن مكامن الأسرار البلاغية، من تشبيهات بليغة، واستعارات لطيفة، وكنايات جميلة، ومجاز منتظم لغوي وعقلي وينقسم المجاز  اللغوي إلى مجاز مرسل واستعارة، الذي كشفت لنا في سياقها ومقامها ما دلت علية آيات الشرك من اسرار بلاغية، لذلك أثرنا أن ندرس هذا الفن ضمن بحثنا الموسوم بـ( البيان في آيات الشرك في القرآن الكريم دراسة بلاغية ) للكشف عن الدلالات والمعاني التي تدل عليها النصوص القرآنية، والذي سأوجزه بمبحثين وخاتمة.
التأثير النفسي والإدراكي للألوان في الخرائط
Authors: Jasim Al Doori Sideeq Mustafa , Ali May Abed
Published: October 2022

ترتكز دراستي الموسومة (التأثير النفسي والإدراكي للألوان) على محاولة معرفة مدى التأثير النفسي والإدراكي للألوان في حياة الإنسان بمختلف المستويات العمرية وباختلاف نوع الجنس وبحسب المستوى الثقافي للشخص، وتفسير دلالات الألوان ومعانيها، والتأثير السايكولوجي للألوان في حياة الإنسان، وذلك لأهمية الألوان في حياة الإنسان وتماسها المباشر به والذي يؤثر بدوره على اختياراته وانفعالاته وانعكاساتها على سلوكه، وتبين من نتائج البحث أن للألوان تأثيرا كبيرا في تلك السلوكيات وتلك الاختيارات، وانعكس التأثير حتى في المزاج والراحة النفسية وعدمها بالنسبة للإنسان، وكان التأثير متنوعا ومختلفا ما بين الفئات المختلفة من عيّنة الدراسة بالنسبة للألوان المفضلة على غيرها في كل فئة، فالاختلاف كان واضحا مابين كبار السن وصغار السن وما بين الذكور والإناث ومابين المستوى الثقافي العالي أو البسيط، فالألوان تترك في النفس البشرية انعكاسات كثيرة ومختلفة ولها الشأن الكبير في تحديد مدى قبول الإنسان أو رفضه لحالات في الحياة، سواء في التعلّم أو التركيز أو في فتح الشهية أو فقدانها أو في اختيار الملبس والأثاث والحاجات المختلفة التي تمس حياة الإنسان.
          وتناولت الدراسة العين وآليات استقبالها للون وكيفية عملها التي تشبه إلى حد كبير آلية عمل الكاميرا الفوتوغرافية، وكذلك تناولت تشريح العين وكيفية تلقي الضوء، وتفسير الصورة المرئية، وتحليل الألوان في الدماغ، مما يوضح الجوانب النفسية والجسمية المتعلقة بالألوان.

Ethnic Cultural Codes in the Visual Semiosis of Crimea
Authors: Kotliar Elena Romanovna , Khlevnoi Vladimir Aleksandrovich
Published: October 2022

The subject of the study is ethnic cultural codes that are broadcast in the visual semiosis of decorative and applied art and architecture of the Crimea. The object of the study is architecture and decorative and applied art of various ethnic groups of the Crimea. The research uses methods of semantic, semiotic and artistic analysis of traditional images, the method of analysis of previous studies, the method of synthesis in conclusions regarding the formation of a unified Crimean style in visual semiosis. In the study, the author considers aspects of the topic: morphology and semantics of the elements of the visual semiosis of the Crimea and their belonging to a particular code of ethnic cultures; polyethnicity in the formation of the Crimean style of architectural and subject decor. The emphasis is placed on the multiculturality of the Crimea in the process of forming a semiotic universe in the visual semiosis. The main conclusions of the study are: 1. Crimea is a multicultural ecumene due to its geographical location, the interaction of ethnic groups on its territory generated various cultural processes, ranging from reception to integration, which led to the formation of a unique Crimean style in the visual arts. The elements of this style were the details of the ethnic art of various peoples who inhabited the Crimea from the first centuries of our era to the present. 2. Ethnic cultural codes defining the identification of the presence of a certain national artistic culture in the unified Crimean semiosis of architecture and decorative and applied art are elements and symbols characteristic of the traditional semiosis of a particular ethnic group. Over time, they have changed and experienced mutual influence, but the most persistent of them are still identified as belonging to a certain national and/or religious culture. 3. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the fact that the author for the first time conducts a semantic analysis of pictorial symbols in the visual semiosis of Crimea, identifies individual ethnic cultural codes, analyzes their genesis, commonality and differences of elements as part of a single Crimean stylistics.
Evaluation of Enhanced Gray Area Mitigation Approaches Based on Jet Aeroacoustics

Published: October 2022

An investigation of various eddy viscosity models for accurate scale-resolving simulation of aerodynamics and aeroacoustics of a turbulent jet is presented. The models are considered from the perspective of solving the so-called gray area problem. This problem is related to nonphysical delay in the transition from Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) to large-eddy simulation (LES) in hybrid RANS–LES approaches such as detached eddy simulation (DES) when applied to shear-layer flows. The performance of recently developed dynamic adapting subgrid length scales ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]) and subgrid LES models ([Formula: see text] and S3QR) separately and together is demonstrated. The object of the investigation is an immersed subsonic turbulent jet. The simulations are carried out on a set of refining meshes using two different scale-resolving numerical algorithms with basic and higher-accuracy schemes on unstructured meshes. The evaluation of various eddy-viscosity models within the DES approach is mostly focused on the analysis of far-field noise. The study has clearly demonstrated the importance of both a numerical scheme and a subgrid turbulence model. The results show that some of the considered techniques provide the necessary accuracy to predict the noise generated by a turbulent jet. The features of the considered approaches are identified and discussed. Recommendations are formulated for the choice of the LES model and subgrid length scale for this kind of problem.
OSIEDLE JEŻYCE JAKO PRZYKŁAD SUBSTRUKTURY MIEJSKIEJ I ELEMENT POLICENTRYCZNEJ STRUKTURY POZNANIA
Authors: Mierzejewska Lidia , Sikorska-Podyma Kamila
Published: October 2022

Jedną z ważniejszych cech współczesnego świata staje się policentryczność, analizowana w różnych aspektach i w odniesieniu do różnych skal przestrzennych. W literaturze wskazywane są liczne korzyści wynikające z takiej struktury przestrzennej w skali Unii Europejskiej, poszczególnych krajów, regionów, aglomeracji miejskich czy też z tworzenia policentrycznych sieci miejskich. Niewiele jest natomiast prac odnoszących się do kształtowania policentrycznej struktury przestrzennej miasta, która, jak się wydaje, przynieść może zarówno mieszkańcom miasta, jak i miastu jako całości wiele różnego rodzaju korzyści, umożliwiając jednocześnie realizację założeń zrównoważonego rozwoju. W artykule zaprezentowano wpisującą się w zagadnienia policentryczności miast koncepcję substruktur miejskich, czyli pewnych funkcjonalnych całości składających się z subcentrum oraz obszaru jego oddziaływania. Głównym celem artykułu jest natomiast analiza i ocena tego, czy poznańskie osiedle Jeżyce potraktować można jako substrukturę Poznania, której ogniskiem (i jednocześnie subcentrum miasta) jest znajdujący się w centrum osiedla RynekJeżycki. Na podstawie analizy dokumentów i badań terenowych określono między innymi: (1) funkcje, jakie Rynek Jeżycki pełni na rzecz mieszkańców Jeżyc i całego miasta, (2) miejsca, w których mieszkańcy osiedla zaspokajają swoje codzienne potrzeby oraz (3) ich związek z zamieszkiwanym obszarem (tożsamość terytorialną). Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań stwierdzono, że osiedle Jeżyce określić można mianem substruktury miejskiej. Wskazano także na korzyści, wynikające z kształtowania policentrycznej, złożonej z substruktur, przestrzennej formy miasta.
