Constraint-based bare-hand immersive 3D modelling
Authors: Jung Thomas , Israel Johann Habakuk , Ahlhelm Ruben , Bauer Patrick
Published: May 2023

Three-dimensional user interfaces that are controlled by the user’s bare hands are mostly based on purely gesture-based interaction techniques. However, these interfaces are often slow and error prone. Especially in the field of immersive 3D modelling, gestures are unsuitable because they complicate and delay the modelling process. To address these problems, we present a new gesture-free 3D modelling technique called “3D touch-and-drag”, which allows users to select vertices by approaching them and to terminate operations by moving the 3D cursor (e.g. the forefinger) away from the constraint geometry (e.g. a straight line or a plane). Our proposed technique makes it possible to transfer the existing 3D modelling concepts (“3D widgets”) to virtual environments, as shown by an experimental 3D modelling tool. The gesture-free bare-hand interaction also improves the possibility of tactile feedback during 3D manipulation. We compared different modelling techniques for controlling the 3D widgets. We found that controller-based techniques are significantly faster than finger-tracking-based techniques. The 3D touch-and-drag technique is about as fast as gesture-based interactions. Mouse interaction in a two-dimensional GUI is only slightly faster than the 3D modelling techniques. Since our proposed technique has proven to be at least equivalent to gesture-based interaction techniques in terms of accuracy and efficiency, its further development using more accurate tracking techniques seems promising to exploit the advantages of hands-free and gesture-free interaction for immersive 3D modelling.
Synthesis and crystal structure of an ionic phenyltin(iv) complex of N-salicylidene-valine
Authors: Böhme Uwe , Weling Gisela
Published: May 2023

Triethylammonium dichloro[N-[(2-oxyphenyl)methylidene]valinato]-phenyl-tin(iv) was prepared and characterized by spectroscopic methods and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The compound consists of a triethylammonium cation and a tin complex as anion. The tin complex is composed of a tridentate O,N,O-Schiff base ligand coordinated to a SnCl2Ph unit. The tin atom is in distorted octahedral coordination geometry. NMR spectroscopic studies have shown that the unusual hexa-coordinated tin complex was formed as a kinetically controlled product. Storage of the solid product for several years led to a transformation into a thermodynamically stable penta-coordinated tin complex.

Symbolic Theology and Resistance in the Theology of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Paul Tillich
Authors: Birkler Margrethe Kamille
Published: May 2023

In this article, I study how symbolic theology can be advantageously utilized in the resistance against oppressing structures and ideologies. Studying two sermons of Paul Tillich and two speeches of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the symbols used herein as a call to resistance against injustice, I wish to show how theologically grounded symbols have been used to resist injustice and in the call for justice. Furthermore, I study how the symbols used by Tillich and King can be utilized and reinterpreted in the various struggles taking place today against old and new oppressing structures and ideologies. The resistance against injustice must, however, also be undertaken intersectionally. And finally, I propose to bring the understanding of theology as symbolic engagement from Robert C. Neville into conversation with intersectional symbolic theology. I believe an intersectional symbolic theology can be successfully applied to feminist theology, queer theology, and other liberative theologies today.
Effect of bis(methylimidazolium) ionic liquid on the extraction of actinides and lanthanides with bis(carbamoylmethylphosphine oxide) extractant from nitric acid solutions

Published: May 2023

A novel bis(methylimidazolium) ionic liquid 3,3′-(pentane-1,5-diyl) bis(1-methylimidazolium) bis(trifluoromethanesulfonul)imide [C5(mim)2][Tf2N]2 has been synthesized. Its effect on the extraction of U(VI), Th(IV), Am(III), and lanthanides(III) from nitric acid solutions with a polydentate neutral bis(carbamoylmethylphosphine oxide) ligand L containing two bidentate fragments Ph2P(O)CH2C(O)NH–, interconnected by 4,7,10-trioxatridecane spacer through amide nitrogen atoms has been investigated. The efficiency of the extraction of metal ions with solutions of L in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) significantly increases in the presence of [C5(mim)2][Tf2N]2. A synergistic effect in the extraction of metal ions in this system has been explained with the high hydrophobicity of the Tf2N− anions, which are involved in the formation of extracted complexes as counterions. The value of the synergistic effect decreases with increasing acidity of the aqueous phase. The influence of the composition of the aqueous and organic phases on the efficiency of the extraction of metal ions into the organic phase is considered, and the stoichiometry of the extracted complexes is determined. The effect of the HTf2N coextraction with L on the extraction of metal ions in the L – [C5(mim)2][Tf2N]2 system is discussed. The synergistic effect in the extraction of Ln(III) from 3 M HNO3 solutions with the mixture of L and [C5(mim)2][Tf2N]2 in DCE is higher than that in the L – [C4mim][Tf2N] – DCE system.

Neste trabalho, partindo de propostas da Análise Dialógica do Discurso, fundada das teorizações de Mikhail Bakhtin e o Círculo, defendemos e ilustramos a tese bakhtiniana de que o sujeito é individual e social ao mesmo tempo e, que, por isso, todo sujeito é responsável pelos outros e perante os outros – ou ao menos responsabilizável, o que nos interessa mais especificamente. Examinamos, com base na ideia de responsabilidade ética, e considerando diversas reações de sujeitos diante da pandemia (que vão do negacionismo absoluto ao pânico) duas atitudes, uma que se aproxima da assunção da responsabilidade por si e pelos outros e outra que recusa essa dimensão do ser humano.

Old and newly synthesized histones are asymmetrically distributed in Drosophila intestinal stem cell divisions
Authors: Zion Emily H , Ringwalt Daniel , Rinaldi Kristina , Kahney Elizabeth W , Li Yingying , Chen Xin
Published: May 2023

We report that preexisting (old) and newly synthesized (new) histones H3 and H4 are asymmetrically partitioned during the division of Drosophila intestinal stem cells (ISCs). Furthermore, the inheritance patterns of old and new H3 and H4 in postmitotic cell pairs correlate with distinct expression patterns of Delta, an important cell fate gene. To understand the biological significance of this phenomenon, we expressed a mutant H3T3A to compromise asymmetric histone inheritance. Under this condition, we observe an increase in Delta‐symmetric cell pairs and overpopulated ISC‐like, Delta‐positive cells. Single‐cell RNA‐seq assays further indicate that H3T3A expression compromises ISC differentiation. Together, our results indicate that asymmetric histone inheritance potentially contributes to establishing distinct cell identities in a somatic stem cell lineage, consistent with previous findings in Drosophila male germline stem cells.

DOSTOEVSKY’S REALISM: CONTINUATION OF THE DISPUTE
Authors: Syromiatnikov Oleg
Published: May 2023

The aim of the article is to determine the connection between F. M. Dostoevsky’s creative work with the phenomenon denoted in the modern literary studies by the terms of “spiritual realism,” “Christian realism,” “religious realism,” “symbolic realism,” etc. The writer worked in the genre of realism, he called himself a realist, and it is easy to notice the features of social, psychological, philosophical and even political realism in his works. However, at the same time, there was always something else in them that was more significant and added unique originality to the writer’s works. Many modern researchers believe that the foundations of this phenomenon lie in the common cultural European Christian tradition. Having studied various research approaches with the method of comparative analysis, author of the article comes to the conclusion that the most accurate term denoting the features of Dostoevsky’s artistic method is “Orthodox realism.” The writer himself called his method “complete realism,” “realism in the highest sense,” absolutely rejecting the label of a writer-psychologist. This circumstance has attracted the attention of researchers more than once. While studying their points of view and analyzing Dostoevsky’s own views on the goals and objectives of artistic creativity, the author of the article concludes that “realism in the highest sense” is based on the principle of transforming the Orthodox view of the world into artistic imagery. Many features of this principle can be seen throughout Russian literature, but it was Dostoevsky who brought those features together, developed and strengthened the most productive of them, removed certain incidental and unsuccessful ones and created Orthodox realism as a full-fledged artistic method. Based on it, the novels of 1866–1890s and “The Writer’s Diary” were written.

Introduction: The capacity of resistance to β-lactam among enterobacteriales is notable, mainly into water environment. Herein, many species of this family have the ability to carrier and produce β-lactamases enzymes, such as extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenemases. However, contrary to clinical settings, where the distribution of resistant bacteria is well documented, the evidence of resis-tant pathogens in the domestic sewage has been little explored, especially in Brazil. Thus, we aimed to investigate the occurrence of ESBL and carbapenemases between ampicillin-resistant enterobacteriales recovered from a municipal raw sewage in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Methods: Enterobacteriales were isolated from sewage samples on MacConkey agar supplemented with ampicillin. Species identifica-tion was performed by biochemical and morphological methods and the resistance profile determined by the Kirby-Bauer test. The production of ESBL and carbapen-emase was investigated in all isolates by phenotypic tests. Results and discussion:A total of 45 species of enterobacteriales resistant to ampicillin were recovered (37 Escherichia coli, four Klebsiella pneumoniae, and one Klebsiella oxytoca, Citrobacter freundii and Pantoea agglomerans). Most isolates showed a high β-lactam suscep-tibility profile (14/45, 31.1 %), however E. coli with decreased susceptibility to imipenem was detected (2/37; 2.7 %). ESBL-positive isolates were mostly identified as E. coli (10/45; 22.2 %), but no isolates were positive carbapenemase. Conclu-sion: Domestic sewage is an important source of β-lactams resistant determinants in Brazil.

IDENTIFICATION OF DEFECTS IN A COATING WEDGE BASED ON ULTRASONIC NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING METHODS AND CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS
Authors: Soloviev A. N. , Sobol B. V. , Vasiliev P. V. , Senichev A. V. , Novikova A. I.
Published: May 2023

The paper deals with the identification of a crack-like defect in a coated wedge based on ultrasonic nondestructive testing. The authors propose an approach of defect identification followed by determination of its geometrical parameters. The approach is based on a shadowed ultrasonic nondestructive testing method combined with deep machine learning technologies. A wedge-shaped area is inspected for the presence of an internal defect. On one edge of the wedge there is a source of ultrasonic vibrations, on the opposite edge there is a receiver. Passing through the coating and body of the wedge, part of the signal is reflected from inhomogeneities and defects that may be present in it. The signal reaching the opposite edge of the wedge is read by the receiver. The received data is processed by a neural network model, which predicts the presence or absence of an internal defect and, if present, determines geometric parameters such as size and position. A finite element model of ultrasonic wave propagation inside the wedge is constructed. Special damping layers are used, due to which the influence of parasitic signal reflections and its further propagation into the wedge body is significantly reduced. Based on the built model, the shadow method of ultrasonic scanning is implemented. This method implies that on one side of the wedge are installed excitation devices, and on the opposite side – receiving devices. Several numerical experiments for various combinations of geometric parameters of the wedge and the defect have been performed using a distributed computing system. Based on the obtained data, a neural network model was built and trained, capable of identifying the defect and determining its characteristics. The input of the model is spectrograms of the readout signal, and the output is values characterizing the defect.
Linking Probability Theory and Quantum Mechanics, and a Novel Formulation of Quantization
Authors:   ,   Linnaeus University, Faculty of Technology, Department of Mathematics, Wallentin Fritiof
Published: May 2023

This doctoral thesis in mathematics consists of three articles that explore the probabilistic structure of quantum mechanics and quantization from a novel perspective. The thesis adopts a probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics, which views the archetypical quantum experiments of Bell- and double-slit- type as violating the principle of non-contextuality, i.e., the assertion that all events and observables are always representable on one single Kolmogorovian probability space, rather than the principles of realism or locality. This probabilistic interpretation posits that quantum mechanics constitutes a probability theory that adheres to the principle of contextuality, and that quantum events explicitly occur at the level of measurement, rather than the level of that which is measured, as these are traditionally interpreted. The thesis establishes a natural connection between the probabilistic structure of quantum mechanics, specifically Born’s rule, and the frequentist interpretation of probability. The major conceptual step in establishing this connection is to re-identify quantum observables instead as unitary representations of groups, whose irreducible sub-representations correspond to the observable’s different possible outcomes, rather than primarily as self- adjoint operators. Furthermore, the thesis reformulates classical statistical mechanics in the formalism of quantum mechanics, known as the Koopman-von Neumann formulation, to demonstrate that classical statistical mechanics also adheres to the principle of contextuality. This finding is significant because it raises questions about the existence of a hidden-variable model of classical statistical mechanics of the kind as examined in Bell’s theorem, where this presumed hidden-variable model traditionally has been seen as that which distinguishes "classical" from "quantum" probability.A novel reformulation of quantization is proposed considering it rather in terms of the representation theory of Hamiltonian flows and their associated inherent symmetry group of symplectomorphisms. Contrary to the traditional view of quantization, this formulation can be regarded as compatible with the probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics and offers a new perspective on the quantization of gravity.
Myślenie w żywiole wolności . Józefa Tischnera wizja wolności jako determinanty liberalnej demokracji
Authors:   Uniwersytet Kazimierza Wielkiego, Rogowski Waldemar
Published: May 2023

Retrospective consideration of the Józef Tischner’s political writing permits us to think about him as a philosopher of liberty. He considered this idea as connected with man’s ability and activity in work altering world. The idea of liberty always was a subject of livery discussions. Tischner understood that liberal formulation of liberty is the most important and basic social value. However, philosopher from Cracov perceived that a freedom defined as an opportunity of unembarrassed man acting, it can also be a cause of his dilemmas, problems or fear, particularly during the political system transformation. The Tischner’s Homo sovieticus caused the man nostalgia for power of communism and simultaneous the lack of responsibility for his own life. Liberty turned out with unfortunate gift. Also the representants of Catholic Church hierarchy distrustfully treated the liberal conception of liberty. Józef Tischner criticized these fears, defining his vision of liberty as way of the existence of good. The Tischner’s conception of positive liberty was an answer for a negative liberty presented by classic liberals. Cracovian thinker’s view enrolls in Christian thought, connected with objective norms as well as idea of common good. The good state idea should base on freedom instead of anarchy nor the negation of constitutional values, political orders introduced in man’s life. It is necessary to build the social structures leaning on membership in social community and political structures based on law and idea of liberty.
Bushowska wizja wojny z terroryzmem
Authors:   Uniwersytet Kazimierza Wielkiego, Jureńczyk Łukasz
Published: May 2023

Military actions were supplemented by intelligence and police operations aimed at locating Al-Qaeda cells in various parts of the world and neutralising them. However, they were not the core of the undertaking. The war was actually started by the attack on Afghanistan conducted in response to the terrorist attacks of 11 September. The conflict in Iraq was also carried out in the name of combating terrorism, however, it was just a bureaucratic reason for the intervention. The war itself led to an escalation of the phenomenon of world terrorism. President George W. Bush propagated messianic views stating that the war against terrorism was waged in the name of the God, while its aim was fighting evil in the world. The war was a realisation of the United States National Security Strategy guidelines of September 2002, which emphasized the significance of the preemptive war, increased unilateralism of American activities and the necessity to overthrow undemocratic regimes.
Effect of Aerobic and Resistance Exercise Training on Balance, Strength, Functional Capacity, and Pulmonary Function in Post-Stroke Patients: A Systematic Review
Authors: Ali Hoda Mohamed Elshiekh , Amaravadi Sampath Kumar
Published: May 2023

Background: Stroke has become the second leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for over 10% of total deaths as per a report published by the American Health Association. Motor and cognitive impairments have been known to be associated with stroke survivors, with reports of up to 75% of post-stroke patients suffering from debilitating disabilities that prevent them from living independently. Motor disability is often attributed to muscle weakness, thereby affecting their gait and balance. So, the present systematic review aimed to evaluate the evidence on the effects of aerobic and resistance exercises improving balance, functional capacity, and pulmonary function among post-stroke patients.

Methodology: A systematic review was conducted and registered with OSF registry (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/DWVUF). This systematic review was conducted based on the following PRISMA guidelines. A comprehensive search strategy identifying effect of aerobic and resistance exercise training on post-stroke patients was developed using electronic databases such as PubMed, Medline, Scopus, Embase, and Cochrane Central between the years January 2000 to June 2022. Randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews are the study designs that were included in the present review. Methodological quality assessment was done using mixed methods appraisal (MMAT) tool. Data on characteristics of intervention and outcome measures were extracted.

Results: The search yielded 944 articles, and after the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 11 studies were considered for the final analysis. The mixed methods appraisal tool was used to appraise the quality of the studies included. Data extracted from each study included the first author's name, year of publication, study design, and outcome measures wherever applicable. Balance, muscle strength, pulmonary function, and functional capacity were the outcomes included.

Conclusion: Great strides have been made in terms of progress for management options for stroke-induced physical limitations, and a growing number of studies have linked exercise to improved physical activity in post-stroke patients. However, further studies and evidence are needed to determine the long-lasting impacts of aerobic and resistance exercises on balance, muscle strength, pulmonary function, and functional capacity.
HOMOGENIZATION-BASED SPACE-TIME TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF TUNABLE MICROSTRUCTURES
Authors: Keles A. F. , Temizer Ilker , Cakmakci M.
Published: May 2023

A topology optimization framework is developed for smart materials with tunable microstructures. The framework
addresses spatial and temporal design variables in a unified setting so as to deliver the optimal periodic microstructure
with stimulus-sensitive constituents. The optimal topology allows the macroscopic response of the microstructure to
track a time-dependent cyclic path in the tress-strain space with minimal error. The relevant homogenization-based
variational analysis for the sensitivity-based optimization framework incorporates not only material variables but also
the geometry information regarding the unit cell. Extensive numerical investigations demonstrate the ability of the
developed approach to deliver optimal topologies for realizable target macroscopic paths. The error in optimization increases monotonically with the degree of unrealizability, yet the critical role of the microstructure in minimizing the error in comparison to a pure time optimization approach is demonstrated in all cases.

Deep penetrating sealer (DPS) is a general term for a class of waterproofing agent that can fill the internal pores of concrete; it is produced by mixing an alkali metal silicate solution as the base material with catalysts and additives. The objective of this study was to investigate the characteristics and mechanism of the effect of different amounts of DPS sprayed on concrete. The water absorption, hydrophilicity, permeability, microhardness, abrasion erosion resistance and pore structure of concrete were tested at different water/cement ratios and amounts of sprayed DPS. The test and analysis results showed that, compared with a control concrete, concrete absorbed less water and exhibited less permeability after being sprayed with DPS. Moreover, the hydrophilicity, microhardness and abrasion erosion resistance improved, while the pore volume significantly decreased. The effect was more evident when the amount of sprayed DPS was higher. This study provides a reference for practical engineering applications by demonstrating the variation in concrete surface properties after spraying different amounts of DPS.

The results of new integrated technological approaches to the synthesis of ultrafine α-alumina using commercially available metallurgical alumina as a raw material are presented. The influence of seven different modes of calcination of the initial γ-Al2O3 in the temperature range of 1200‒1600 °C was studied. It was revealed that the experimental modes determine the size of the primary crystals and the grindability of the firing products. It has been established that by varying the temperature regimes, it is possible to purposefully obtain both monomodal and multimodal powders. Ill. 5. Ref. 12. Tab. 1.

Published: May 2023

The effect of Cu and Si contents on the evolution of embrittlement during a heat treatment consisting of quenching into an oil bath and tempering in the range 200–500 °C was investigated in medium-carbon steels with 0.48 w/% and 0.57 w/% of C. The results showed that the higher silicon content shifted the tempered martensite embrittlement to higher tempering temperatures. The steels alloyed with Cu had lower notch-toughness values, which worsened with increasing tempering temperature compared to the Cu-free samples. In the investigated tempering temperature range, the following microstructural changes occurred: formation of transition carbides, decomposition of retained austenite, and precipitation of cementite and Cu-particles.

What is The Correlation Between Chemical Engineering and Special Needs Education from The Perspective of Bibliometric Analysis Using VOSviewer Indexed by Google Scholar
Authors: Wirzal Mohd Dzul Hakim , Putra Zulfan Adi
Published: May 2023

Chemical engineering is a field of study that focuses on increasing the values of one form of material to the other via chemical processes. Its typical activities cover research and development, feasibility studies, engineering designs, plant operations, and improving plant performances. The goal of this research is to analyze “Chemical Engineering Special Needs” by combining mapping analysis and the VOSviewer app. The Publish or Perish app is also used to support and find articles that are relevant to keywords used for searching. Thus, "Chemical Engineering” and “Special Needs" were used as the keywords for this study. There are 800 relevant articles published between 2018 and 2022, based on the search results. The number of publications on "Chemical Engineering Special Needs" has declined, according to the research findings, notably in 2021. This study should aid researchers in conducting and deciding on a research topic regarding the correlation between special needs and chemical engineering.

Published: May 2023

Background. The modern concept of acute leukemia therapy involves stratification of patients into prognostic risk groups and a differentiated approach to treatment based on prognostic factors. However, antitumor treatment, including cytostatics, targeted agents, immunotherapy, cellular technologies, is not always highly effective, especially in patients with a poor prognosis. The development of new high-tech diagnostic methods and the refinement of leukemia prediction models remain an urgent clinical task.

Aim. To demonstrate the fundamental capabilities of the nuclear gamma resonance method in the early diagnosis of leukemia.

Materials and methods. The blood of 1 healthy man and 5 patients of different genders and ages with leukemia was examined. Gamma-resonance (Mossbauer) spectra of iron nuclei in their blood were analyzed.

Results. Significant differences in the parameters of the spectra of 57Fe nuclei in the blood of both healthy men and patients of different genders and ages were revealed.

Conclusion. Nuclear gamma-resonance spectroscopy at the atomic-nuclear level reveals the influence of cancer cells on the state of iron nuclei and, consequently, on the state of blood. This method can be used both for early diagnosis of leukemia and for assessing the population of tumor cells after achieving cytological remission in leukemia.

Education is an important component of modern life. And quality education is not possible without mastering practical skills and competencies that are difficult to implement during classroom learning. This issue became especially relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic and the full-scale invasion of Moscow's troops. The organization of extracurricular work in the sports and tourism direction includes various activities from excursions to tourist trips. Tourist trips are the most interesting form of organizing extracurricular work with schoolchildren. During the hikes, students acquire not only practical, sports and tourist skills, but also conduct local research of their native region. The paper presents the project of a pedestrian tourist route of the 2nd degree of difficulty in the territory of the Rivne region. During the route, students will not only cover 52 km in 4 days but will also get to know the natural and historical and cultural heritage of Zarichnenska and Loknytska territorial communities. Successfully overcoming a tourist trip depends on many factors, but especially on the selection of high-quality and necessary group equipment. This aspect was given special attention in the work - recommendations for the selection of group tourist equipment were analyzed and presented, and calculations were made for a group of 10 participants. Not only the amount of necessary equipment, but also the weight and price are considered, an alternative option is offered - renting tourist equipment. In addition, the personal participation of the authors of the article was calculated.

Children with low academic achievement are one of the problems that are often found in schools but, in general, children with this condition often cannot be identified by teachers. Whereas the success of educational services for children with low academic achievement is determined by the ability of teachers to identify children. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the teacher's ability to identify children with low academic achievement in schools providing inclusive education. This quantitative descriptive research was conducted at 4 elementary schools in Banjarmasin City and Banjar Regency with the number of research subjects on 28 classroom teachers. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires and interviews and then analyzed quantitatively descriptively. The results showed that the teacher's ability to identify children with low academic achievement with an average of 33.33% both in screening, referral, and classification functions. At the stage of screening, the process carried out is still incomplete, because identification is carried out only using identification instruments, simple tests, and inadequate supporting documents (Family Cards (KK), birth certificates, children's data). Most of the teachers have not observed children's abilities, interviewed , and completed IQ test results. At the referral stage, the teacher has not collaborated with professional staff. Most students with low academic achievement are classified by teachers as slow learners, without knowing their IQ scores. The teachers with lack of ability to understand the process of identifying children with special needs will determine the handling of children with special needs in schools providing inclusive education.
