Inundaciones recurrentes, territorialidades emergentes y desalojos latentes. Conflictos del habitar en el barrio La Vuelta del Paraguayo de la ciudad de Santa Fe a principios del siglo XXI
Authors: Crovella Fernán , Acebal Anahí
Published: November 2018

En este trabajo abordamos el análisis del conflicto latente desplegado sobre las formas del habitar de las fracciones sociales que residen en el territorio ribereño ubicado al este del ejido municipal de la ciudad de Santa Fe y dentro del valle aluvial del río Paraná. Nos centramos, particularmente, en la tensión abierta sobre el barrio La Vuelta del Paraguayo entre las propuestas de “relocalización” y una posible “planificación conveniente y en convivencia con el río”, a partir de analizar la manera en que se despliegan de distintos dispositivos biopolíticos que avanzan sobre la normalización de las formas de evacuación y, por ende, sobre las formas del habitar. Como principal objetivo nos proponemos avanzar en el conocimiento de los efectos de las políticas de “gestión del riesgo” en la configuración de las relaciones e identidades sociales. El abordaje metodológico general es cualitativo, con una estrategia metodológica integrada, de tipo documental, con trabajo de campo de tipo etnográfico, que articula los distintos planos en un análisis relacional.
Teoría para la construcción de una ciudad: Enrico Tedeschi y su vínculo con la morfología urbano-edilicia de Mendoza (Argentina, 1960)
Authors: Raffa Cecilia
Published: November 2018

Enrico Tedeschi es una figura clave en el panorama de la modernidad en Mendoza. Instalado desde 1948 en Argentina, su actuación profesional estuvo signada por la dedicación a la enseñanza y a la investigación de la Historia y la Teoría de la Arquitectura. Pero dentro de su trayectoria profesional fueron también importantes sus aportes en el campo del urbanismo: Tedeschi tuvo un papel preponderante en la Comisión Especial de Planeamiento Urbano y Código de Edificación de la ciudad de Mendoza. Nuestro abordaje hipotetiza sobre la relación entre la producción teórica de Tedeschi plasmada en su libro Teoría de la Arquitectura y el informe que elabora para la Comisión de Planeamiento y Código de Edificación. Supone además que el primer informe tuvo injerencia en la morfología urbano-edilicia reglamentada en el Código de Edificación de Mendoza, que afectó a las planificaciones urbanas de toda la provincia.
Las sexualidades y su capital espacial. Exploraciones teórico-situadas en la ciudad intermedia de Bahía Blanca, Argentina
Authors: Larreche José Ignacio
Published: November 2018

En Argentina, la Geografía es una ciencia con pocas teorizaciones acerca de la dimensión espacial de la sexualidad, a pesar de ser un terreno fecundo para otras ciencias sociales. El estudio parte de concebir el espacio exterior como regulador de la alteridad mediante mecanismos de control que imprimen una jerarquía social y, por ende, espacial. En Bahía Blanca, la condición sexodiversa aún reviste un carácter de estigma que dificulta alcances performativos. Mediante entrevistas y la observación participante, se señalarán los intersticios sociosexuales en la ciudad vinculados con el juego interescalar, los ritmos diurnos-nocturnos y la virtualidad de las socializaciones. El objetivo que se persigue es interpelar dicho espacio a partir de vivencias de sujetos autodefinidos gais en un intento de, por un lado, explorar el grado de plenitud de estas prácticas socioespaciales y, por el otro, potenciar las herramientas que aporta la geografía para alumbrar estas experiencias situadas

Authors: ERAT Selma , YİLDİRİMCAN Saadet
Published: November 2018

The optical and photoluminescence
properties of ZnO nanocrystals synthesized via hydrothermal method are
determined in this study. The effect of growing time (1 h, 6 h, 12 h,
24 h and 36 h) and Mn concentration (5x10-4
mol, 10x10-4, 25x10-4 mol, 75x10-4 mol, 100x10-4
mol, 250x0-4 mol) on these properties are investigated and presented
in detail. Optical properties of the nanocrystals are investigated by using
UV-VIS spectrophotometer. The ultraviolet–visible (UV-Vis) and
photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy techniques are used for optical and
photoluminescence properties characterization. Room temperature PL
spectra of the ZnO nanopowders show a near band-edge emission (peak at 385 nm)
and a red light emission (peak at 650 nm) for both ZnO synthesized for different
growing time and different Mn concentration. The ZnO prepared with 1 h and 12 h includes the lowest oxygen related
defects. The ZnO doped with 5x10-4
mol shows the highest oxygen related defects whereas that of 100x10-4
mol shows the lowest defects.
A Brief History of Risk
Authors: Li Ying , Hills Thomas , Hertwig Ralph
Published: November 2018

Despite increasing life expectancy, and high levels of welfare, health care and public safety in most post-industrial countries, the public discourse often revolves around perceived threats. Terrorism, global pandemics, and environmental catastrophes are just a few of the risks that dominate media coverage. Is this public discourse on risk disconnected from reality? To examine this issue, we analyzed the dynamics of the risk discourse in two natural language text corpora. Specifically, we tracked latent semantic patterns over a period of 150 years to address four questions: First, we examined how the frequency of the word risk has changed over historical time. Is the construct of risk playing an ever-increasing role in the public discourse, as the sociological notion of a ‘risk society’ suggests? Second, we investigated how the sentiments for the words co-occurring with risk have changed. Are the connotations of risk becoming increasingly ominous? Third, how has the meaning of risk changed relative to close associates such as danger and hazard? Is risk more subject to semantic change? Finally, we decompose the construct of risk into the specific topics with which it has been associated and track those topics over historical time. This brief history of the semantics of risk reveals new and surprising insights—a fourfold increase in frequency, increasingly negative sentiment, a semantic drift towards forecasting and prevention, and a shift away from war toward chronic disease—reflecting the conceptual evolution of risk in the archeological records of public discourse.

In the Human Penguin Project (N = 1755), 15 research groups from 12 countries collected body temperature, demographic variables, social network indices, seven widely-used psychological scales and two newly developed questionnaires (the Social Thermoregulation and Risk Avoidance Questionnaire (STRAQ-1) and the Kama Muta Frequency Scale (KAMF)). They were collected to investigate the relationship between environmental factors (e.g., geographical, climate etc.) and human behaviors, which is a long-standing inquiry in the scientific community. More specifically, the present project was designed to test principles surrounding the idea of social thermoregulation, which posits that that social networks help people to regulate their core body temperature. The results showed that all scales in the current project have sufficient to good psychometrical properties. Unlike previous crowdsourced projects, this dataset includes not only the cleaned raw data but also all the validation of questionnaires in 9 different languages, thus providing a valuable resource for psychological scientists who are interested in cross-national, environment-human interaction studies.
Functional networks of empathy: A systematic review and meta-analysis of fMRI studies of empathy for observed pain
Authors: Fallon Nicholas , Roberts Carl , Stancak Andrej
Published: November 2018

See published version here: https://doi.org/10.1093/scan/nsaa090 Background: Empathy is a phenomenon which incorporates cognitive and affective processes with importance for socio-political, interpersonal and clinical aspects of everyday life. Functional neuroimaging studies of empathy for pain demonstrate rich and heterogeneous patterns of brain activation. However, previous meta-analyses of such studies indicated a limited array of concordant activations focused on bilateral anterior insula (AI) and anterior/anterior mid-cingulate cortex (ACC/aMCC), which points to the need for further research to resolve this dichotomy. Greater understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms of empathy for pain has potential for research, therapeutic interventions and social applications.Objective: To conduct coordinate based meta-analysis (activation likelihood estimation, ALE) investigating neurobiological processes associated with empathy for observed pain. Data source: We adhered to the ‘Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRIMSA) method. Thirty-four studies comprising 897 participants and 420 reported foci were selected for ALE meta-analysis from a systematic review. In addition we contrasted ALE maps of empathy for pain with those of directly perceived pain processing in healthy people from a previous comprehensive meta-analysis (180 studies, Tanasescu 2016). Results: The ALE results revealed consistent activation across studies for empathy for observed pain in aMCC, bilateral AI, supramarginal and lateral occipitotemporal regions and inferior frontal gyri. Conjunction analysis highlighted a broad degree of overlap for empathy and direct experience of pain, but contrast analysis also indicated distinct patterns of activation for empathy for pain, particularly in bilateral supramarginal and occipitotemporal regions.Conclusion: The findings reveal an extended bilateral network underpinning empathy for observed pain which incorporates brain regions with relevance for pain processing, interoception, social cognition, and self-other distinction. The present analysis highlights an important role for supramarginal and occipitotemporal cortices in empathic responses to observed pain which were previously largely overlooked.
Decision-makers use social information to update their preferences—but choose for others as they do for themselves

Published: November 2018

People’s risky decisions can be highly influenced by the social context in which they take place. Across three experiments we investigated the influence of three social factors upon participants’ decisions: the recipient of the decision-making outcome (self, other, or joint), the nature of the relationship with the other agent (friend, stranger, or teammate), and the type of information that participants received about others’ preferences: none at all, information about how previous participants had decided, or information about a partner’s preference. We found that participants’ decisions about risk did not differ according to whether the outcome at stake was their own, another agent’s, or a joint outcome, nor according to the type of information available. Participants were, however, willing to adjust their preferences for risky options in light of social information.
Variations on anchoring
Authors: Bahník Štěpán , Houdek Petr , Vrbova Lucie , Hájek Jiří
Published: November 2018

The anchoring effect, the assimilation of judgment toward a previously considered value, has been shown using various experimental paradigms. We used several variations of the sequential anchoring paradigm, in which a numeric estimate influences a subsequent numeric estimate on the same scale, to investigate how anchoring is influenced by multiple anchors, a comparison question, and by a newly introduced debiasing procedure. We replicated the anchoring effect using the sequential anchoring paradigm and showed that, when two anchors of opposite directions are presented, the second seems to influence a subsequent judgment somewhat more. A comparison of a target with another object before the numerical estimate was not sufficient to elicit anchoring, but it might have increased the sequential anchoring effect. The debiasing procedure, based on providing reference points on the numerical scale, prevented the sequential anchoring effect. The results are in accord with the scale distortion theory of anchoring, but other theories may also account for the observed findings with additional adjustments.
A comparison of conflict diffusion models in the flanker task through pseudo-likelihood Bayes factors
Authors: Evans Nathan J. , Servant Mathieu
Published: November 2018

Conflict tasks are one of the most widely studied paradigms within cognitive psychology, where participants are required to respond based on relevant sources of information while ignoring conflicting irrelevant sources of information. The flanker task, in particular, has been the focus of considerable modeling efforts, with only three models being able to provide a complete account of empirical choice response time distributions: the dual- stage two-phase model (DSTP), the shrinking spotlight model (SSP), and the diffusion model for conflict tasks (DMC). Although these models are grounded in different theoretical frameworks, can provide diverging measures of cognitive control, and are quantitatively distinguishable, no previous study has compared all three of these models in their ability to account for empirical data. Here, we perform a comparison of the precise quantitative predictions of these models through Bayes factors, using probability density approximation to generate a pseudo-likelihood estimate of the unknown probability density function, and thermodynamic integration via differential evolution to approximate the analytically intractable Bayes factors. We find that for every participant across three data sets from three separate research groups, DMC provides an inferior account of the data to DSTP and SSP, which has important theoretical implications regarding cognitive processes engaged in the flanker task, and practical implications for applying the models to flanker data. More generally, we argue that our combination of probability density approximation with marginal likelihood approximation – which we term pseudo-likelihood Bayes factors – provides a crucial step forward for the future of model comparison, where Bayes factors can be calculated between any models that can be simulated. We also discuss the limitations of simulation-based methods, such as the potential for approximation error, and suggest that researchers should use analytically or numerically computed likelihood functions when they are available and computationally tractable.
The Biology and Ecology of the Diamondback Moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) in Eastern Ontario Revisited
Authors: Dancau Tina
Published: November 2018

Diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) is a globally distributed pest on brassicaceous crops. This study aimed to follow up with aspects of earlier research, mainly to revisit the potential for overwintering of diamondback moth in the Ottawa area, to investigate present day population dynamics using a life-table approach and to use next generation sequencing to describe the diamondback moth microbiome. A review of the literature has reaffirmed that diamondback moth may not be capable of overwintering in Ottawa with populations likely migrant-driven. The population dynamics and parasitoid community appear to be unaltered after 65 years. The microbiome of diamondback moth larvae was dominated by Enterococcaceae, a family of bacteria hypothesized to aid in resistance and detoxification. This can provide opportunities for the introduction of new biological control agents and tools for diamondback moth management in the future.
Wetting and sealing of the interface between silicate glass and copper
Authors: Zhang Min , Chen Changjun , Li Chuangye
Published: November 2018

In order to realize reliable sealing and combining of constructional glass and copper, the effects of temperature, holding time, and roughness on their wetting properties were studied. The contact angle and drop diameter were measured by microscopy. The microstructure, element distribution and chemical composition of the reaction interface were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy to reveal the relationship between the contact angle and the reaction interface. The results show that the glass/copper contact angle of the sample tested constantly decreases with increasing temperature. If the holding temperature is increased from 980°C to 990°C, and the wetting angle is reduced from 83.22° to 55.28°. When the holding time is prolonged from 5 min to 40 min at 1000°C, the wetting angle decreases and the size of the black halo around the glass reduces. The copper surface roughness has little effect on the wetting angle. Therefore, during the actual sealing process, increasing the temperature and holding time, could effectively improve the wetting behavior of the glass and copper. The black halo formation and interfacial reaction mechanism are also discussed.
Investigations on the Microstructure-Property Relationship of NCM-Based Electrodes for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Authors: Schmidt D. , Kleinbach M. , Kamlah M. , Knoblauch V.
Published: November 2018

The microstructure of a multi-material-electrode and in particular its porosity co-determines, to a significant extent, the energy and power density of a lithium-ion cell. Moderate and high degrees of densification with several intermediate stages were applied reaching porosities of up to 18 % in order to increase the theoretical energy density of NCM-based cathodes. By applying microscopic and material analysis methods, the microstructure development during the densification could be described and a direct relationship to the electrochemical performance of the electrodes could be demonstrated. Major microstructural changes in connection with a significant drop in performance at current rates ≥ 2C arise from applying densification with porosities of < 25 %. Then again, compactions of the NCM cathodes generating 20 – 22 % porosity offer the highest energy densities at moderate loads, i. e. current rates ≤ 1C.
Influence of the environmental factors on species diversity and quantitative development of zoobenthos in the Neva Bay
Authors: Balushkina E.V. , Golubkov M.S.
Published: November 2018

Hydrochemical characteristics, primary production of plankton, taxonomic composition, species richness, species diversity and quantitative characteristics of the benthic fauna of the Neva Bay had been collected and analyzed at the end of July and the very beginning of August 2003–2012 by the method stepwise regression, calculated equations with a free constant. Effects of biotic and abiotic factors on the structural and functional characteristics of benthic communities in the Neva Bay were evaluated using multiregression analysis. Research period had been accompanied by revival of industry of Saint-Petersburg, construction of ports, active navigation, development of Sea facade and completion of the construction of the St. Petersburg Flood Prevention Facility Complex and a large-scale hydrotechnical works: building of a Marine Multifunctional Reloading Complex (MMRC) “Bronka” and approach fairway to it. Results of statistical analysis showed that the number of species and species diversity of bottom animals in the Neva Bay declined with increased primary production and chlorophyll a concentration. Analysis of the factors influencing the values of biomass of benthic animal communities shows that these characteristics increased with growing chlorophyll concentration. During the anthropogenic stress of 2006–2007, the existing links between the structural characteristics of the zoobenthos and the functional biotic characteristics of the Neva Bay were completely destroyed. Restoration period 2008–2012 was accompanied by an increase in the species richness and species diversity of zoobenthos to the level observed before anthropogenic stress.
Dis-orienting Western Knowledge
Authors: Leonardo Zeus
Published: November 2018

The decolonization movement is a knowledge project insofar as colonialism was an epistemological form of imperialism. As such, curricular change in the primary grades to university life requires a fundamental reworking of theories of knowledge, if not knowledge itself. To interrogate this problem and pose possible interventions, this article explicates Edward Said’s conceptualization of colonialism as taking place on an epistemic level that orients western knowledge towards non-western ways through a will to dominate. Extending beyond the administrative colonial era, coloniality in the modern era, more appropriately called postcoloniality, transforms as a knowledge relation. Decolonization requires dis-orienting this relationship through Said’s methodology. Finally, the article argues that a ‘travelling curriculum’ poses an alternative against the dominant mode of knowledge that aims to fix and essentialize people, ultimately opening up the known world towards processes of co-existence.
Decolonizing Feminism in the #MeToo Era
Authors: Lukose Ritty
Published: November 2018

This article explores what it means to decolonize feminism in the university today. Pushing against the idea that feminism in the university is disengaged from broader struggles, the article suggests a complex relationship between feminism as a knowledge project and as a political one. While feminism has had a long-standing decolonizing imperative within the university, equally challenging has been the decolonization of feminism. The #MeToo era has foregrounded the universalizing horizon of feminism, posing new challenges for this project. Arguing for a more complex understanding of generations and the politics of location in these debates, the article draws on a recent and not so recent feminist archive, such as the articulation of ideas of intersectionality and the ways in which multiple feminisms have been understood, in order to explore decolonizing feminism today.
Decolonizing the African Studies Centre
Authors: Branch Adam
Published: November 2018

The African Studies Centre has been a privileged institutional form in Britain for knowledge production on Africa since the end of colonialism. This article argues that the origin of these UK centres should be located in the colonial research institutes established in Africa, in particular the Rhodes-Livingstone Institute and the East African Institute of Social Research. Attention to the knowledge about Africa that was deemed authoritative by these institutes as well as to the institutions and structures underpinning that knowledge production can raise important questions about today’s centres that need to be addressed as part of a decolonization agenda.
Sumarni inventar fonda Narodni odbor gradske općine Pazin 1952. - 1955.
Authors: Hrelja Hendi
Published: November 2018

Narodni odbor gradske općine Pazin osnovan je u travnju 1952. ukinućem dotadašnjih mjesnih narodnih odbora Pazin, Gračišće, Kašćerga, Katun Trviški i Sveti Petar u Šumi čije područje nadležnosti prelazi pod novoosnovani Narodni odbor gradske općine Pazin. Djelovao je do kraja kolovoza 1955. kad se novim administrativnim preustrojem ukidaju gradske općine te prelaze u novoosnovane općine. Ukinućem Narodnoga odbora gradske općine Pazin osnovan je Narodni odbor Općine Pazin koji preuzima mjesnu nadležnost ukinutoga stvaratelja. Narodnom odboru gradske općine Pazin hijerarhijski je bio nadređen Narodni odbor kotara Pazin.
Narodni odbor gradske općine bio je zadužen za obavljanje poslova izvršne djelatnosti u svezi s privrednim, komunalnim, socijalnim i kulturnim razvitkom gradske općine. Za proučavanje pojedinih pitanja i pripremanje zaključaka te vršenje anketa vijeća Narodni odbor gradske općine formirao je stalne i povremene komisije. Za izvršenje zakona i propisa Narodnoga odbora i viših državnih organa te obavljanje upravnih poslova osnivali su se savjeti. Za pripremu i izvršenje poslova iz svoje nadležnosti Narodni odbor gradske općine imao je svoju administraciju kojoj je na čelu bio tajnik. O izvršenju odluka i drugih akata, mjera Narodnoga odbora i propisa viših državnih organa te usklađivanju rada svih organa Narodnoga odbora, i uz nadzor administracije, brinuo se predsjednik Narodnoga odbora.
Nakon prestanka rada stvaratelja gradivo je ostalo u posjedu sljednika sve dok nije od Skupštine Općine Pazin preuzeto u Arhiv u dvama navratima, 1972. i 1973. godine, te je okvirno sređeno, evidentirano i izdvojeno od gradiva povezanih stvaratelja. Arhivistička je obrada obavljena tijekom 2016. godine, a u rujnu je iste godine izrađen i Sumarni inventar. Gradivo je sređeno sukladno sadržajno-funkcionalnom modelu sređivanja prema kojemu su formirane pojedine serije. Fond se sastoji od deset osnovnih serija: Registraturna pomagala, Opći poslovi, Rad i radni odnosi, Unutrašnji poslovi, Privreda, Financije, Zdravstvo i socijalna zaštita, Prosvjeta i kultura, Pravosuđe i Narodna obrana. Na nižim su razinama strukture formirane podserije i podpodserije, a gradivo je na najnižoj razini kronološki posloženo.
The influence of drill point geometry on tool life
Authors: Botak Zlatko , Horvat Marko
Published: November 2018

Drilling is a cutting process that uses a rotary cutting tool to cut a cylindrical hole in a solid material. During machining, drill bits are exposed to rapid wear at high temperature. Sometimes, due to an ecological need for dry technology without any lubricant, the use of drill bits with coatings is required, typically titanium nitride (TiN), titanium carbon nitride (TiCN) or titanium aluminium nitride (TiAlN). This paper presents research on drilling done to determine how drill point geometry affects the drill lifetime and finished surface quality. We compared the chip removal ability and surface quality of bored holes in Hardox 500 created with high-speed steel drill bits and drill bits manufactured from hard metals, with and without coatings, under constant processing parameters. A cost/efficiency comparison was also carried out with respect to drill bit fabrication, sharpening, and use. Based on the data obtained on the damage drill points, the most economical drill bit for processing holes was determined.
Operator’s whole body vibrations
dependent of agrotechnical surface, speed of movement and seat upholstery
Authors: Barač Željko , Planščak Ivan
Published: November 2018

The paper presents the recorded vibrations that affect the operator’s body when an agricultural tractor moves along three types of agrotechnical surfaces, i.e. asphalt, an alfalfa field, and a field path, and when seven different tractor seat upholsteries are used. The research was performed in accordance with the HRN ISO 2631-1 and HRN ISO 2631-4 standards. The tractor used in the research was an IMT 560 and the duration of the measurement was 30 minutes, which was repeated three times for every tractor seat upholstery type. The research was exploitative. The measurements were performed using an MMF VM30 meter. The paper reveals a different level of vibrations in dependence with different surfaces and seat upholsteries. The fewest vibrations were produced by asphalt, and the best upholsteries are memory foam and sponge.
Influence of strands transposition
on current distribution and power losses in windings of AC machines
Authors: Tomičić Branko , Srpak Dunja
Published: November 2018

This paper analyses how the type of winding affects the current distribution and power losses in armature winding. Using finite element method, four different types of winding used in large asynchronous motors are analyzed: form-wound concentric, with and without transposition, and form-wound barrel, with and without transposition, for the stationary state. In two cases, the calculation shows clear differences between maximum currents in strands, a shift in their phases, and a resulting increase of AC resistance. In two other cases, minor deviations, smaller phase shift and smaller increase of AC resistance, are detected. It indicates that in certain types of armature winding of large motors the strands transposition leads to significant positive effects in terms of motor power, while in other cases it leads to unnecessary complications making the manufacture of large asynchronous machines more difficult, with relatively small positive effect on the motor power losses.

The paper examines literature on the subject of instructional design and game based learning with the aim of identifying its positive effects and impact on users. Special attention was given to learning, encouragement and development of skills acquired through the use of game based learning. Game based learning is considered to be a complex system that requires instructional support geared towards stimulating cognitive processes. Several empirical research papers which provide insight into this field of interest have been chosen. The second set of papers provides confirmation accompanied with an analysis of instructional support as a function of the learning support. Also included were recent works which indicated the need for further research and the heterogeneity of the existing research. Other works complemented the unit and are mutually interconnected by a methodological approach providing insight into the issues that should be investigated in the future.
Transport emissions and electric mobility
in private transport in the Republic of Slovenia
Authors: Muhič Simon , Bošnjaković Mladen
Published: November 2018

Since the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol more and more emphasis is laid on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The article analyses the feasibility of introducing electric vehicles into traffic rather than vehicles with internal combustion engines. From standpoint of emission sources use of electricity for transport is analysed with stress on private cars and typical emissions from power sector by energy conversion in Slovenia. Results of research shows that electric car has a little more than twice better efficiency of the primary energy use, taking into account only efficiency in the energy chain. Electric mobility brings a more efficient use of energy in road transport with demand to reduce emission at power generation. So presented number can vary greatly, depending on the electrical energy source. In the present research problems connected with immediate initiation of the electric cars are not analysed.

Стаття присвячена особливостям зовнішньої політики гетьмана Лівобережної України – Івана Самойловича. Особлива увага акцентується на проблемі встановлення дипломатичних відносин між Річчю Посполитою та Московською державою в перші роки гетьманування Івана Самойлович. Також автор розглянув хід та наслідки міжнародних угод, і їхній вплив на становище Лівобережної України в період з 1672 по 1677 р. Важливою в цей час була позиція лівобережного гетьмана та його взаємовідносини з правобережним гетьманом П.Дорошенком. Складність ситуації полягала в тому, що в боротьбу за українські землі весь час намагались втрутитись Туреччина та Кримське ханство. Лівобережному гетьману довелося діяти дуже точно й обережно, щоб уникнути нових війн між постійними суперниками – Річчю Посполитою і Московським царством.

Emanuel Rosenzweig (1843-1906) – a Маn of Modern Time in Austrian Chernivtsi
Authors: Valiavska Kateryna
Published: November 2018

The article is dedicated to the analysis of public activities in a social space of a representative of an economic and social elite of Chernivtsi –a merchant of Jewish origin Emanuel Rosenzweig (1843 – 1906). The characteristic feature of a modern Jewish elite in Chernivtsi during the 19th century was the symbiosis of a Jewish religious tradition on the one hand and of modernity and bourgeois life style on the other hand. The identity and worldview of E. Rosenzweig had been forming under the influence of the ideas of Haskalah, values of the German «higher culture» and of a modern society. The main motive of his activities was the desire for qualitative changes in a sociocultural space of Chernivtsi and self-realization in public life at the same time. The property in the form of a musical store, membership in a number of societies, being in charge of a charitable society, the title of «emperor’s counselor» proved his high positions as a social actor.

Contribution of the Inhabitants of Tovmachna to Strengthening the Combat Capability of the Army WUPR During the War of 1918 – 1919
Authors: Fedoryshyn Igor
Published: November 2018

The article describes the problem of the contribution of the inhabitants of Tovmachchyna to strengthening the combat capability of the Ukrainian Galician army during the Ukrainian-Polish war of 1918–1919. The publication shows the role of the county authorities, which, realizing the importance of helping the Ukrainian army in the struggle against the external enemy, since the first days of its functioning strongly urged residents of the province to join the gathering of food, clothes, money and ammunition for the defense of the UGA.

Also the author analyzes the normative legal acts of local authorities, dealing with material and social security of personnel of the Ukrainian Galician army and members of their families.

Active participation on the full support of the UGA was enacted and the residents of Tovmachchyna becаmеa reliable support for its defenders. A crucial role in this process was played by the Patriotic enthusiasm in the community that led to the emergence of a large number of supporters and gave impetus to the creation of the various funds and committees assistance, through which the Ukrainian population of the county, in terms of a lack of resource capabilities and external aggression, in fact, served the function of the state material support of the Ukrainian armed forces.

Flooding is a serious urban problem, especially in HoChiMinh city in recent years. Many researches for flow accumulation by terrain have been proposed. Accordingly, terrains are splitted to grids. Single or multiflow algorithms will theoretically show the accumulated water trend. So that, to reduce flooding, increasing road or extending drainage system is common work. However, the consider things is what will be influence and impact: locally or globally on the whole calculated areas. In this paper, the authors propose the firstly heuristics graph-theoretical spatial analysis algorithm to redirecting the flow for archiving the accumulation beyond one determined threshold value.

The objective of this study is to increase CO2 conversion into methanol by applying zeolite membrane technology for reaction, using catalytic component with 16 % CeO2 -30 % CuO - 30 % ZnO/ 24 % Al2O3. Different experiments were conducted to identify the appropriate zeolite membrane to separate by-products. The following experiments determined the appropriate conditions for synthesis of methanol process from CO2 in reaction system with chosen zeolite membrane. The results of study showed that, NaA membrane could separate water out of the gas mixture after reaction the most effectively. This will limit the influence of water by-product on the catalytic activity and produce larger methanol amount in comparison to the reaction system without zeolite membrane. NaA zeolite membrane has shown its good performance since the produced methanol is 1.4 to 1.7 times higher than of non-membrane reaction system. The optimal conditions for methanol synthesis reaction from CO2 using the NaA zeolite membrane are: temperature from 220 to 240 oC, pressure is 5 bar, flow of materials input is 200 ml/min, the ratio of H2:CO2 is 3:1. Potential applications of the methanol synthesis from CO2 using zeolite membrane reactor system is absolutely suitable.

The textile wastewater is one of the most complex wastewaters because it contains many persistant organic compounds. In this study, factors effect on UV/Fenton process were investigated including: concentration of H2O2, Fe2+, initial pH, time reaction and the stirring speed. Raw wastewater was aerated for 24 h and filtered by 20 μm filter paper before conducting reactions. The optimum conditions of the UV/Fenton process were attained at 660 mgH2O2/L and 20 mgFe2+/L, pH 3, 90 min irradiation time and 100 rpm stirring speed. Decolorisation and COD removal efficiencies were achieved 94.2 % and 75.5 %, respectively. The ratio of BOD5/COD was increased from 0.1 to 0.45. In addition, the effects of anions Cl-, SO4 2- on the efficient treatment were investigated. Both anions could inhibit the mineralization process due to scavenging of hydroxyl radical as well as forming strong complexes with iron ions.
