The article presents a study on the classification and labeling in accordance with the GHS when issuing safety data sheets for chemical products. The purpose of the study is to identify features and differences in chemical safety data sheets developed in accordance with the legislation of a number of countries, as well as to analyze the main errors in the preparation of SDS, and in particular in the section related to the GHS classification. In the article, on specific examples, the differences in the classification of chemical products are considered, as well as explanations of these differences within the framework of the legislation used by countries. As research methods, a comparison method was used to assess the differences between the existing legislations of countries and identify criteria for hazard types that have significant differences, as well as a method for analyzing existing national documents that control safety when working with chemical products. Using these methods, the main differences in the classification of products according to the GHS and the issuing of the SDS were presented in comparison with the criteria for classifying products under Russian legislation with the classification of other countries (European Union countries, USA, Canada, etc.).
Research on Interest Capitalization for Self-constructed Assets in Korea Local Tax Law: Interest Capitalization Rule during Cessation Period
Authors:   KOREAN SOCIETY OF TAX LAW, Lee Sungsil , Park Jeong Woo
Published: November 2022

Acquisition tax is a local tax imposed on asset acquisition and its tax base is determined by acquisition price when the price is provable by objective documents. Although acquisition price is required to include direct and indirect costs necessary to acquire the assets, local tax law does not include detailed guidelines of how to include such costs in the tax base. This study focuses on one of the indirect cost of asset acquisition, interest on self-constructed assets and discusses capitalization of such interest when production activities cease.
In financial accounting, some claim that interest on self-constructed assets should be capitalized because the interest is an acquisition cost, but others insist that interest is an expense incurred in financial activity, not in pro- duction activity, so it should be expensed. Current local tax law requires firms to capitalize interest for self-constructed asset regardless of how it is reported for the purpose of financial accounting. In addition, interest is capitalized even when construction ceases. Some practitioner and scholars are against such approach of tax law because it differentiates tax bases of the same asset acquisitions based on financial resources and construction periods.
This study proposes that the local tax law allows taxpayers to cease interest capitalization for self-constructed asset unless they cease due to circumstances inherent in the production process. It is against the tax equity that the difference in acquisition periods results in the difference in acquisition tax amount for the same assets. New regulation may include when capitali- zation of interest can cease. In addition, it may also include that the suspen- sion of interest is an election made by a taxpayer and taxpayers are responsible for demonstrating that a cessation is not inherent in the production process. This study is expected to contribute to practitioners and policy makers by proposing new regulations in determining tax base of acquisition tax.

RELAY PROTECTION DATABASE
Authors: Elis Sutlović  , Krunomir Petric
Published: November 2022

The article presents the development of a relay protection database through a series of phases.  In the planning phase of the database, problems in a typical relay protection department are examined  and the reasons why a database should be developed are determined. Subsequently, during  the phase of analysis and the specification of requirements, what the database will be used  for is defined. In the phase of the formation and construction of the database, its logic is defined  and then a physical model is prepared on a computer using the Microsoft Access database management  system, which stipulates how the database will operate. The database is placed into  operation and verified using actual data. Training is then provided for the future users.  The database presented facilitates the systematization, storage and use of a large quantity of  data with minimum redundancy. In addition, it provides support during the regular maintenance  of relay protection equipment, the issuing of work orders, periodic reporting etc. The relay  protection database can be accessed by several users with differing permissions for individual  objects of the database. The right to access is defined by the user identity. Furthermore, a  special application has been created to simplify searching updating and printing-out of data,  which facilitates the display of a series of previously prepared components of the relay protection  database. The basic purpose of the application is to allow the user to utilize the full power  of Microsoft Access with a minimum of effort and a minimum of required knowledge about  database technique and the system for database management.

Published: November 2022

Since the liberalization and deregulation of the electricity markets throughout the world are in  full swing, the number of market participants, as well as their diversity, is sharply increasing. In  the traditional monopolistic market model, all the processes that occur in a power system have  been supervised by vertically integrated companies. Since market logic is changing from that  oriented toward minimizing generation costs for electrical energy to the trend of maximizing  profit, the risk is being distributed among all the market participants uniformly and is no longer  entirely borne by the final consumers. Under such uncertain conditions, in which the prices  of electrical energy change from hour to hour, each market participant wants a reliable tool to  facilitate optimal and quality decisions and strategic performance.

Aim. Compare the effectiveness of nebivolol and sotalol in patients with hypertensive disease (HD) and ventricular arrhythmias (VA) taking into account its effect on regulatory adaptive status (RAS). Materials and methods. 49 patients with HD of stages II-III and VA of grade I-IV based on the В.Lown grading system, II-III groups based on J.Bigger grading system took part in the research, they were randomized into two groups for treatment with nebivolol (6,9±1,8 mg/day) or sotalol (159,1±47,4 mg/day). As part of combination therapy, patients were administered lisinopril (13,9±3,7 mg/day and 13,7±4,5 mg/day), acetylsalicylic acid when required (90,0±14,6 and 95,0±16,2 mg/day), atorvastatin (18,7±4,1 mg/day and 15,6±4,9 mg/day), respectively. Initially and 6 months after therapy, the following was done: quantitative assessment of RAS (by cardio-respiratory synchronism test), echocardiography, triplex scanning of common carotid arteries, treadmill test, six-minute walk test, all-day monitoring of blood pressure and electrocardiogram, subjective assessment of quality of life. Results. Both drug regimens comparably improved structural and functional condition of the heart, increased controlled arterial hypertension, effectively suppressed ventricular arrhythmia, improved the quality of life. Nebivolol positively affected the RAS and increased exercise tolerance more. Conclusion. In patients with HD of stages II-III and VA as part of combination therapy the use of nebivolol may be preferable to sotalol due to its positive impact on the RAS.

We derive the most up-to-date Swift-Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) blazar luminosity function in the 14–195 keV range, making use of a clean sample of 118 blazars detected in the BAT 105 month survey catalog, with newly obtained redshifts from the BAT Active Galatic Nucleus Spectroscopic Survey. We determine the best-fit X-ray luminosity function for the whole blazar population, as well as for flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) alone. The main results are: (1) at any redshift, BAT detects the most luminous blazars, above any possible break in their luminosity distribution, which means we cannot differentiate between density and luminosity evolution; (2) the whole blazar population, dominated by FSRQs, evolves positively up to redshift z ∼ 4.3, confirming earlier results and implying lower number densities of blazars at higher redshifts than previously estimated. The contribution of this source class to the cosmic X-ray background at 14–195 keV can range from 5%–18%, while possibly accounting for 100% of the MeV background. We also derived the average 14 keV–10 GeV spectral energy distribution for BAT blazars, which allows us to predict the number counts of sources in the MeV range, as well as the expected number of high-energy (>100 TeV) neutrinos. A mission like COSI will detect 40 MeV blazars, of which two may have coincident neutrino detections. Finally, taking into account beaming selection effects, the distribution and properties of the parent population of these extragalactic jets are derived. We find that the distribution of viewing angles is quite narrow, with most sources aligned within <5° of the line of sight. Moreover, the average Lorentz factor, 〈Γ〉 = 8–12, is lower than previously suggested for these powerful sources.

We present measurements of the polarization of X-rays in the 2–8 keV band from the pulsar in the ultracompact low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1626–67 using data from the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The 7.66 s pulsations were clearly detected throughout the IXPE observations as well as in the NICER soft X-ray observations, which we used as the basis for our timing analysis and to constrain the spectral shape over the 0.4–10 keV energy band. Chandra HETGS high-resolution X-ray spectra were also obtained near the times of the IXPE observations for firm spectral modeling. We found an upper limit on the pulse-averaged linear polarization of <4% (at 95% confidence). Similarly, there was no significant detection of polarized flux in pulse phase intervals when subdividing the bandpass by energy. However, spectropolarimetric modeling over the full bandpass in pulse phase intervals provided a marginal detection of polarization of the power-law spectral component at the 4.8% ± 2.3% level (90% confidence). We discuss the implications concerning the accretion geometry onto the pulsar, favoring two-component models of the pulsed emission.

We analyze the rest-frame near-UV and optical nebular spectra of three z > 7 galaxies from the Early Release Observations taken with the Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). These three high-z galaxies show the detection of several strong emission nebular lines, including the temperature-sensitive [O iii] λ4363 line, allowing us to directly determine the nebular conditions and abundances for O/H, C/O, and Ne/O. We derive O/H abundances and ionization parameters that are generally consistent with other recent analyses. We analyze the mass–metallicity relationship (i.e., slope) and its redshift evolution by comparing between the three z > 7 galaxies and local star-forming galaxies. We also detect the C iii] λλ1907, 1909 emission in a z > 8 galaxy from which we determine the most distant C/O abundance to date. This valuable detection of log(C/O) = −0.83 ± 0.38 provides the first test of C/O redshift evolution out to high redshift. For neon, we use the high-ionization [Ne iii] λ3869 line to measure the first Ne/O abundances at z > 7, finding no evolution in this α-element ratio. We explore the tentative detection of [Fe ii] and [Fe iii] lines in a z > 8 galaxy, which would indicate a rapid buildup of metals. Importantly, we demonstrate that properly flux-calibrated and higher-S/N spectra are crucial to robustly determine the abundance pattern in z > 7 galaxies with NIRSpec/JWST.
A Segmented Period–Luminosity Relation for Nearby Extragalactic Delta Scuti Stars
Authors: Martínez-Vázquez C. E. , Salinas R. , Vivas A. K. , Catelan M.
Published: November 2022

The period–luminosity relations (PLRs) of Milky Way δ Scuti (δ Sct) stars have been described to the present day by a linear relation. However, when studying extragalactic systems such as the Magellanic Clouds and several dwarf galaxies, we notice for the first time a nonlinear behavior in the PLR of δ Sct stars. Using the largest sample of ∼3700 extragalactic δ Sct stars from data available in the literature—mainly based on the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment and the Super MAssive Compact Halo Object project in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)—we obtain that the best fit to the period–luminosity (M

V
) plane is given by the following piecewise linear relation with a break at logP = −1.03 ± 0.01 (or 0.093 ± 0.002 days) for shorter periods (sp) and longer periods (lp) than the break-point:

The extent and nature of the commercial captive lion industry in the Free State province, South Africa
Authors: Heinrich Sarah , Gomez Lalita , Green Jennah , de Waal Louise , Jakins Catherine , D'Cruze Neil
Published: November 2022

The captive breeding of wildlife for commercial purposes is a controversial issue. In South Africa, the farming of African lions (Panthera leo) for commercial trade emerged in the early 1990s, partly as a conservation measure to reduce the decline in wild lion numbers while meeting increasing wildlife trade demands. In May 2021, the South African Department of Forestry, Fisheries, and the Environment (DFFE) announced plans to end the captive breeding of lions, keeping of lions in captivity, and the use of captive lions, their parts and derivatives for commercial trade. Here, we examined the commercial captive lion industry from 2017 to 2020 in the Free State province, the heart of the lion breeding industry. We document the extent of the industry and highlight a number of key management issues. Of particular concern were issues with microchip numbers, which are used to follow each registered lion from birth to death through the system and to avoid laundering of wild caught and/or non-registered lions. Of the 4,823 unique microchips that were identified, at least 11% could not be followed through the system. Additionally, a minimum of 199 microchip numbers may have been reused by permit holders, either on captivity, euthanasia, or transport permits, indicating potential non-compliance with the Threatened or Protected Species (TOPS) Regulations. We highlight further areas of concern that warrant additional attention for these types of activities that may cause management issues during the transition period and which may also be relevant for the keeping, breeding, and trading of other TOPS regulated species in South Africa, particularly big cat species.

Politiques de l’emploi, handicap et genre
Authors: Boudinet Mathéa , Revillard Anne
Published: November 2022

Comment les politiques visant l’emploi des personnes handicapées prennent-elles en compte le genre ? À partir d’un travail de revue de littérature et de deux enquêtes par méthodes mixtes, cet article propose trois contributions essentielles à la réflexion. Tout d’abord, sur le plan historique, les politiques visant l’emploi des personnes handicapées ont été fondées sur un modèle de travailleur masculin, héritier notamment de la figure du mutilé de guerre. Ensuite, cet héritage a des conséquences différenciées selon le sexe, en dépit d’une neutralisation formelle des politiques sur le plan du genre, du fait des types de handicap que ces politiques ciblent en priorité. Enfin, se reproduisent au sein des politiques visant les « travailleurs handicapés » des inégalités de genre classique, liées par exemple à une attente de disponibilité totale pour la recherche d’emploi, ou encore à une hiérarchie sexuée des métiers au sein du travail protégé.
La critique féministe-marxiste : du travail domestique aux théories de la reproduction sociale
Authors: Calderaro Charlène
Published: November 2022

L’article retrace les grandes lignes de la pensée féministe-marxiste, en partant de ses prémices dans les années 1920 jusqu’à ses développements récents autour de la théorie de la reproduction sociale. Défini comme l’ensemble des tâches et activités quotidiennes nécessaires au maintien de la vie et à la capacité au travail, le travail reproductif est au cœur de ces évolutions théoriques. Après avoir évoqué les premières critiques féministes de l’œuvre de Marx, l’article revient sur le débat sur le travail domestique des années 1970. Il s’attache ensuite à montrer comment la pensée féministe-marxiste évolue depuis lors vers un cadre d’analyse plus large permettant d’appréhender le travail reproductif dans et en dehors de la sphère domestique : payé et gratuit, reconnu et non reconnu. Enfin, l’article dresse les évolutions récentes de la pensée féministe-marxiste qui met au jour une approche unitaire des oppressions via l’élaboration d’une théorie de la reproduction sociale.
Le Vietnam vu du Pacifique
Authors: Goscha Christopher , Larcher Agathe
Published: November 2022

Cet article remonte au 19 e  siècle pour mieux comprendre pourquoi et comment les dirigeants américains ont fini par accorder une importance stratégique exceptionnelle à l’Indochine après la Seconde guerre mondiale. Cet essai avance l’idée selon laquelle on ne peut pas comprendre l’engagement américain en Indochine après 1945 sans le resituer dans son contexte géopolitique et impérial vu du Pacifique. Pour le meilleur ou le pire, les Américains ont fait de l’Indochine un maillon essentiel dans une chaîne défensive visant à protéger les intérêts américains non seulement en Asie du Sud-Est mais aussi dans l’océan Pacifique, ce « lac américain » cachant un empire maritime datant du 19 e  siècle. La fixation américaine sur l’Indochine amènera Washington à intervenir indirectement en Indochine en soutenant les Français contre Ho Chi Minh avant de faire leur propre guerre au Vietnam dans les années 1960.
Extended CODAS method for MAGDM with $ 2 $-tuple linguistic $ T $-spherical fuzzy sets
Authors: Akram Muhammad , Naz Sumera , Santos-García Gustavo , Saeed Muhammad Ramzan
Published: November 2022

In the literature, extensions of common fuzzy sets have been proposed one after another. The recent addition is spherical fuzzy sets theory, which is based on three independent membership parameters established on a unit sphere with a restriction linked to their squared summation. This article uses the new extension that presents bigger domains for each parameter for production design. A systematic approach for determining customer demands or requirements, Quality Function Deployment (QFD) converts them into the final production to fulfill these demands in a decision-making environment. In order to prevent information loss during the decision-making process, it offers a useful technique to describe the linguistic analysis in terms of 2-tuples. This research introduces a novel decision-making method utilizing the 2-tuple linguistic $ T $-spherical fuzzy numbers (2TL$ T $-SFNs) in order to select the best alternative to manufacturing a linear delta robot. Taking into account the interaction between the attributes, we develop the 2TL$ T $-SF Hamacher (2TL$ T $-SFH) operators by using innovative operational rules. These operators include the 2TL$ T $-SFH weighted average (2TL$ T $-SFHWA) operator, 2TL$ T $-SFH ordered weighted average (2TL$ T $-SFHOWA) operator, 2TL$ T $-SFH hybrid average (2TL$ T $-SFHHA) operator, 2TL$ T $-SFH weighted geometric (2TL$ T $-SFHWG) operator, 2TL$ T $-SFH ordered weighted geometric (2TL$ T $-SFHOWG) operator, and 2TL$ T $-SFH hybrid geometric (2TL$ T $-SFHHG) operator. In addition, we discuss the properties of 2TL$ T $-SFH operators such as idempotency, boundedness, and monotonicity. We develop a novel approach according to the CODAS (Combinative Distance-based Assessment) model in order to deal with the problems of the 2TL$ T $-SF multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) environment. Finally, to validate the feasibility of the given strategy, we employ a quantitative example to select the best alternative to manufacture a linear delta robot. The suggested information-based decision-making methodology which is more extensively adaptable than existing techniques prevents the risk of data loss and makes rational decisions.
Pour l’autonomie du pays divin : utopisme et impérialisme chez Mushanokōji Saneatsu
Authors: L’ Hérisson Édouard
Published: November 2022

En 1918, l’écrivain Mushanokōji Saneatsu (1885-1976) fonde Atarashiki-mura (le Nouveau village), communauté utopique dédiée à l’accomplissement de soi et aux arts. Héritier de la pensée de Tolstoï, Mushanokōji critique par son initiative la dévalorisation de la vie induite par le capitalisme. En 1942, le même Mushanokōji publie Dai Tōa sensō shikan [Point de vue personnel sur la guerre de la Grande Asie orientale], l’un des essais les plus radicaux en faveur de l’impérialisme et du militarisme japonais. A travers la mise en perspective de l’entreprise de l’écrivain et de l’expansion nippone en Mandchourie, notamment la construction du village mandchou d’Iyasaka-mura, mais aussi de certains motifs récurrents de l’œuvre de Mushanokōji, le présent article explore la convergence entre utopisme et impérialisme chez l’auteur et la possible continuité qui unit ces deux dimensions. Par le biais notamment de l’identification du moteur sous-jacent de l’autonomie, l’analyse s’attachera en particulier à montrer l’intrication de l’utopie rurale qu’est Atarashiki-mura et de la dynamique impérialiste, deux pôles apparemment contradictoires que l’engouement de l’auteur pour la guerre dans les années 1940 a contribué à réunir.

Internet of things (IoT) is a prominent terminology that has gaining enormous assistance over past years among researchers and professionals. In general, IoT is a combination of interdependent computing devices such as sensors, actuators, microprocessors and other sink nodes that are able to transfer data over network without compelling human-to-human or human-to-machine communication. Besides, by reason of its interdisciplinary approach, IoT has been substantial in evolving distinct aspects of conventional e-healthcare paradigms. On the other side, traditional healthcare system has no longer enchanted the demands of a frequently expanding and developing community. Further, the research works figure out to provide a specially designed for an IoT based e-healthcare system to engage specially for interoperability problems. Subsequently, based on diverse technological standards and communication protocols the specific necessity of IoT system were identified and offered as a base for the development of the system.

In vitro oxidation is a problem for some herbaceous and woody species and can cause darkening of tissues and consequently death of explants and plants Therefore, this study aimed to assess the effect of activated charcoal on in vitro yam cultivation, aiming at reducing or eliminating explant oxidation and optimizing the growth of the genotypes Dioscorea alata var. purpurea (Roxb.) A. Pouchet and Dioscorea rotundata Poir. Nodal segments of approximately 1 cm, extracted from plants previously grown in vitro, were introduced into test tubes containing 10 mL of 2GGC culture medium, plus 30 g L-1 sucrose, solidified with 2.2 g L-1 Phytagel® and pH adjusted to 5.8 before autoclaving, containing activated charcoal doses of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 g L-1. Plants were maintained for 90 days in a growth room, with temperature of 27 ± 1ºC, photon flux density of 30 μmol m-2 s-1 and photoperiod of 16 hours, after which their development variables were evaluated. Activated charcoal, at the concentration of 4 g L-1 considerably promoted the best development of plants, and the species D. alata var. purpurea showed higher means for all variables studied.

Published: November 2022

Background: This study aimed to assess the benefits of associating rehabilitation with therapeutic patient education (TPE) to decrease fear-avoidance belief and pain and improve function in adults with chronic low back pain (CLBP).Methods: This randomized controlled study included 100 patients with CLBP according to the CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) guidelines. The patients were divided into two teams: group A that participated in the TPE in association with rehabilitation and group B that received rehabilitation only. Pain and functional amelioration were assessed initially (T0) and at the end of the program (T1) using a visual analog scale at rest, work, and activity, and the Echelle d’Incapacité Fonctionnelle pour l’Évaluation des Lombalgies scale. Psychological and apprehension and avoidance assessments were also conducted, including the evaluation of depression, anxiety, fear-avoidance belief, and kinesiophobia using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire, and Tampa scale of kinesiophobia scale.Results: The evaluation of progression initially (T0) and then at the end of the program (T1) revealed a significant reduction in pain at rest (P=0.00) and while working (P=0.00) and doing physical activity (P=0.03); a decrease in anxiety (P=0.03), fear-avoidance belief (P=0.03), and kinesiophobia (P=0.02); and an improvement in function (P=0.00) for patients in group A without amelioration of depression (P=0.15). Concerning group B, we identified a significant regression in pain at rest (P=0.001) and while working (P=0.03) and doing physical activity (P=0.00); depression (P=0.01); fear-avoidance beliefs (P=0.00); and kinesiophobia (P=0.002). Comparison between the groups revealed that associating TPE with rehabilitation resulted in a more significant improvement in function (P=0.00), anxiety (P=0.00), fear-avoidance belief (P=0.00), and kinesiophobia (P=0.00).Conclusion: Associating TPE with rehabilitation improved function and reduced fear, false beliefs, and kinesiophobia of movement in patients with CLBP.

Introduction:

Weight stigma, a psychological-related health issue associated with obesity or weight problems, is one of the major concerns within public health. Indeed, weight stigma may cause health and behavioral problems, such as a lack of motivation to exercise. Assessing weight stigma is thus essential. Both the Weight Self-Stigma Questionnaire (WSSQ) and the Perceived Weight Stigma Scale (PWSS) are valid and reliable instruments that have been used in several countries. However, WSSQ and PWSS have never been used in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aimed to translate and validate both WSSQ and PWSS in Indonesian for Indonesian young adults.

Methods:

Via an online survey with convenience sampling, Indonesian college students (n = 438) completed the Indonesian WSSQ, PWSS, and depression anxiety stress scale-21 (DASS-21), and provided their height and weight. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), Rasch analysis, internal consistency, and concurrent validity were used for data analysis.

Results:

The internal consistency was satisfactory for the WSSQ (α = 0.90 and ω = 0.93). One PWSS item did not fit well and was removed. The revised 9-item PWSS had satisfactory internal consistency (α = 0.82 and ω = 0.87). The CFA and Rasch results supported a two-factor structure for the WSSQ, and a one-factor structure for the PWSS. WSSQ and PWSS were significantly and positively correlated (r = 0.32; P < 0.001). Both WSSQ and PWSS were significantly and positively associated with the DASS-21 score (r = 0.18 to r = 0.48; all P < 0.001); WSSQ was significantly and positively associated with body mass index (BMI) (r = 0.17 to r = 0.50; all P < 0.01).

Conclusion:

The translated Indonesian versions of WSSQ and PWSS can be used as instruments to assess weight stigma in Indonesian young adults.
Regular left-orders on groups
Authors: Antolín Yago , Rivas Cristóbal , Lu Su Hang

A regular left-order on a finitely generated group

G

is a total, left-multiplication invariant order on

G

whose corresponding positive cone is the image of a regular language over the generating set of the group under the evaluation map. We show that admitting regular left-orders is stable under extensions and wreath products and we give a classification of the groups whose left-orders are all regular left-orders. In addition, we prove that a solvable Baumslag–Solitar group

B(1,n)

admits a regular left-order if and only if

n\geq -1

. Finally, Hermiller and Šunić showed that no free product admits a regular left-order. We show that if

A

and

B

are groups with regular left-orders, then

(A*B)\times \mathbb{Z}

admits a regular left-order.
Oxidative degradation of micropollutants by a pilot-scale UV/H2O2 process: Translating experimental results into multiphysics simulations
Authors: Cha Dongwon , Lim Gyuseung , Joo Hwajoo , Yoon Jeyong , Lee Changha
Published: November 2022

The UV/H2O2 system is an effective advanced oxidation process (AOP) widely used for micropollutant abatement in drinking water and wastewater treatment plants. Recently, multiphysics simulations based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and chemical kinetics have shown promise by accurately depicting water treatment processes. This study demonstrates the feasibility of incorporating experimental results from a pilot-scale UV/H2O2 system into a multiphysics model. Various factors affecting contaminant degradation and oxidant production such as H2O2 dose, H2O2 injection methods, and reactor size were investigated. The obtained data became the basic building blocks when developing the numerical model. The model predictions exhibited a good correlation with the experimental results. 3-D visualizations using the model allow further in-depth analysis of the distribution of oxidants and target pollutant in the UV photoreactor, providing insights into the possibilities of reactor optimization.
Quasilinear-time Computation of Generic Modal Witnesses for Behavioural Inequivalence
Authors: Wißmann Thorsten , Milius Stefan , Schröder Lutz
Published: November 2022

We provide a generic algorithm for constructing formulae that distinguish
behaviourally inequivalent states in systems of various transition types such
as nondeterministic, probabilistic or weighted; genericity over the transition
type is achieved by working with coalgebras for a set functor in the paradigm
of universal coalgebra. For every behavioural equivalence class in a given
system, we construct a formula which holds precisely at the states in that
class. The algorithm instantiates to deterministic finite automata, transition
systems, labelled Markov chains, and systems of many other types. The ambient
logic is a modal logic featuring modalities that are generically extracted from
the functor; these modalities can be systematically translated into custom sets
of modalities in a postprocessing step. The new algorithm builds on an existing
coalgebraic partition refinement algorithm. It runs in time O((m+n) log n) on
systems with n states and m transitions, and the same asymptotic bound applies
to the dag size of the formulae it constructs. This improves the bounds on run
time and formula size compared to previous algorithms even for previously known
specific instances, viz. transition systems and Markov chains; in particular,
the best previous bound for transition systems was O(mn).
The Republic of Cyprus is a Country of Active Diplomatic Life

When in 2003 my husband, Borys Humeniuk, was first appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Ukraine to the Republic of Cyprus and we were preparing for this responsible assignment, I understood that a new chapter in our lives awaited us - with qualitatively different challenges, risks, and trials. However, until the actual business trip began, I had no idea how colourful that page would be, how rich in mostly positive emotions, how generous in meeting interesting people... Our business trip lasted almost twelve years in total: from 2003 to 2007 and then again to the Republic of Cyprus - from 2012 to September 2019...
International Cooperation Between Thailand and Democratic Kampuchea
Authors: Kupriyanov Denis
Published: November 2022

This article discusses the cooperation between the Kingdom of Thailand and Democratic Kampuchea in the military, political and economic spheres. Contrary to the popular myth that Democratic Kampuchea was an isolationist country, in reality the country was quite open to the world. Thailand became the first country with which Democratic Kampuchea began to cooperate. Cooperation between the two states began in April 1975, immediately after the victory of the Khmer Rouge over the Khmer Blue regime (better known as the previous ruler Lon Nol), and lasted until the final fall of Democratic Kampuchea under the pressure of the Vietnamese troops in 1979. It can be confidently said that the aspirations of the Thais and Khmers in developing relations were sincere. Thailand has sought to improve relations with its neighbours, and in particular with Kampuchea, undertaking various initiatives even during the standoff from October 1976 to October 1977, not to mention agreeing to border revisions or the joint exploitation of resources along the blurred water border. Democratic Kampuchea also took the initiative and went for rapprochement, and this was especially evident at the eighth Asian Olympic Games, when Kampuchea took part in them only for the sake of Thailand. The period of 1979 was the culmination of the development of friendly relations: from a simply friendly country, Kampuchea became an ally of Thailand. True, in the future, after the withdrawal of Vietnamese troops from Cambodia, Thailand will begin to rapidly move away from the Khmer Rouge, who have become increasingly associated with the “bloody genocide of their people”. Then, Thailand, which went out into the world and joined the global system, wanted to have a good reputation and for this broke with the Khmer Rouge
Solving the Border Issues of the USA and Canada in the Field of Joint Use of Water Resources
Authors: Potekhin Oleksandr , Fesenko Mykola
Published: November 2022

The relevance of the research topic is justified by the fact that the USA and Canada have significant fresh water reserves, but they also experience a shortage of this resource, despite the fact that they are among the top five countries with the richest water resources in the world. In order to ensure the water security of the region and preserve the Great Lakes in a favorable condition, the United States and Canada have worked closely together for many years and share the fresh water resources of the Great Lakes, which is an example for other countries of the world. Based on relevance, the main goal of the article is the analysis of urgent border issues of the USA and Canada in the field of joint use of water resources. It is shown that the USA and Canada have adopted 21 legally binding documents, which recognize that these countries have a responsibility to all people currently living on our planet and to future generations to ensure the safety of this water source in the interests of all mankind, and that a balanced ecosystem approach is used in these countries as part of the climate change adaptation measures. It has been found that since the 1980s, concern has arisen in both countries that the diversion of Great Lakes water outside the basin area may impose negative consequences for the ecosystem and limit the possibilities of using these water reserves in the future. It has been proven that the effectiveness of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909 and the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement has decreased in the conditions of increasing competition for water resources in North America. The fact is substantiated that the current management and control system of the Great Lakes waters under the 1909 Treaty is the best of all existing systems, although it requires improvement. On the one hand, the USA and Canada become increasingly aware of the value of their wealth called the “Great Lakes”, but on the other hand, many trends indicate that the goal of states becomes joint cooperation for the purpose of preserving and enriching water resources as well as privatization and ensuring control over territories, including water, to meet their own needs. Besides the irrational use of water, which is observed both in water-poor regions of the United States and in waterrich regions of Canada, both sides of the border lack of vision for a unified water pricing policy. The article has practical significance for Ukraine, since the experience of the USA and Canada can be useful as an example of solving urgent problems in the field of providing our country with fresh water and preserving water resources.
