DETERMINATION OF THE PARAMETERS OF THE MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF THE WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM OF A HIGH-STORY BUILDING UNDER CHANGES IN THE INLET PRESSURE
Authors: Yashyn Roman
Published: December 2024

Prospects for improving the energy and resource efficiency of water supply systems have been studied. The peculiarities of the operation of the water supply system of a multi-story residential building under conditions of increased pressure at the entrance of the water supply system are analyzed.Mathematical and software tools have been developed for the formation of recommendations for the implementation of energy- and resource-saving approaches in the design of water supply systems of multi-story buildings. In order to develop a refined mathematical support for the development of recommendations for improving the energy efficiency of water supply systems, the water consumption calculations of a multi-story building were refined, and the expressions for the distribution of water consumption values by floor were obtained. The use of an indicator of the operating mode of the system is proposed and justified: consumer needs for water as the amount of water consumption at a minimum sufficient input pressure. According to the cyclogram of water consumption by users of the building, the need for water, which is the same for all floors, is determined. A methodology for calculating water consumption by each individual floor based on the experimental results of changes in water consumption of the building with changes in inlet pressure has been developed. The influence of the amount of excess pressure at the entrance of the house on the amount of water consumption by its residents was studied. It has been established that due to excess pressure in the system, for a seven-story building, for same resident's need for water, the difference in consumption between the first floor and the seventh floor can be 9%. The results of flow calculations for zero excess pressure at the water supply system inlet were obtained; the results of flow calculations for excess pressures corresponding to 1, 2, 3 and 4 atm were obtained. For the studied example of a seven-story building, the probable annual increase in water consumption for each of the above-mentioned excess pressures, which are 4718, 9400, 14070 and 18696 m3, respectively, was calculated.
SPECIFIC OF THERMOHYDRAULIC CALCULATIONS OF CORE PRESSURIZED WATER SMALL MODULAR REACTORS IN CASE NATURAL CIRCULATION OF THE COOLANT
Authors: Konshin Valeriy , Kravchenko Pavlo
Published: December 2024

The article has been devoted to the study of the main features of pressurized water small modular reactors and an analysis of the influence of the specified features on the thermohydraulic calculation of the core.
Special attention is given to small modular reactors with natural circulation of the coolant. It was determined that in the calculation of the core, natural circulation affects the determination of pressure losses and the heat transfer coefficient. When determining pressure losses, the difference between natural and forced coolant circulation lies in the components of pressure losses that need to be considered. In the determination of the heat transfer coefficient, the key factor is the determination of the Nusselt number, where the circulation flow regime affects determining criteria. The issue of determining the critical heat flow using the CHF LOOK UP TABLET method is also considered for the further determination of the departure from nuclear boiling, which serves to assess the safety of operation of the installation.
As an example, during the study, a thermohydraulic calculation of the core of the small modular reactor Holtec SMR-160, as one of the advanced representatives of this type of reactor, was performed. As a result of  the conducted calculation, the value of pressure losses, the distribution of the heat transfer coefficient and the minimum departure from nuclear boiling were obtained. The study shows the departure from nuclear boiling obtained as a result of the calculation is close to the minimum allowable value, but it is quite acceptable considering the characteristics of natural coolant circulation. However, it necessitates further analysis during the assessment of the reactor facility's safety.

Relation between Lex Sportiva and Lex Mercatoria
Authors: Alessi Longa Francesco Ernesto
Published: December 2024

This paper delves into the connection between Lex Sportiva and Lex Mercatoria, two influential legal frameworks that extend across national boundaries. Lex Sportiva addresses legal standards and dispute resolution within the world of international sports, whereas Lex Mercatoria applies to commercial law governing global trade. Though they operate in distinct realms, both systems exhibit common features, such as arbitration-based dispute resolution, worldwide applicability, and shared fairness principles. This paper explores how each framework evolves alongside international law and considers the impact of European efforts toward unifying sports and commercial law standards. Additionally, the study examines where Lex Sportiva and Lex Mercatoria converge, especially as sports increasingly integrate commercial interests. The analysis presents cases where these frameworks overlap, suggesting that a unified legal approach may better address the complexities of a globalized economy and sports industry. This research offers insights into the evolution of international law, advocating for closer integration of these frameworks to promote fair competition, regulatory alignment, and clearer legal standards in global sports and trade.
Purification of Cellulose and Chitin Polymers from the Microalga Chlorella vulgaris Using a Green Biorefinery Process
Authors: Zanchetta Enio , Mercier Baptiste , Frabboni Maxime , Damergi Eya , Ludwig Christian , Pick Horst Matthias
Published: December 2024

Microalgae produce renewable biomass at a high efficiency by using photosynthesis to capture the greenhouse gas CO2 from the atmosphere and by releasing O2. Chlorella vulgaris is one of the most frequently cultivated unicellular green microalga of commercial relevance. Some recent studies remarkably indicate that these microalgae can be a source of both cellulose and chitin biopolymers. Biomaterials produced with these polymers have useful mechanical properties. They are biocompatible, biodegradable and they are regarded as sustainable alternatives to replace fossil-based bioplastics for many applications. However, selective and environmentally friendly processes for the effective co-purification of both polymers from microalgae are not yet available. Here, we present a green biorefinery approach that allowed on one hand the co-extraction of chitin and cellulose. On the other hand, our method enabled to co-purify lipids, pigments and proteins together with the biopolymers to make the whole procedure economically more viable. Finally, our greener fractionation and purification process was shown to reach efficiencies comparable to conventional more toxic solvent extractions.

Authors: Massaro Fabio , Collura Nicola , Paradiso Salvatore , Di Gloria Paolo , Vergine Chiara
Published: December 2024

Sicily, an Italian region in the south of Italy, is candidate to become an energy "hub" in the Mediterranean in the coming years. Its geographical location, between the African continent and Europe, makes it a crucial hub for the distribution of electricity flows. The region has a high potential for exploiting renewable energy sources. Inspired by the Australian “Renewable Energy Zones” model, identifying existing Renewable Energy Zones (REZs) and properly designing future REZs on the territory will simplify and enhance the operation of the grid.A very effective tool in managing REZs is Dynamic Thermal Rating (DTR) technology. This technology allows dynamic rating on the high voltage transmission system, ensuring the maximum allowable current is transported while preventing the annealing of the electrical conductor and adhering to all necessary safety parameters.In the work carried out in collaboration with Terna S.p.A (Italian Transmission System Operator), the goal was to assess the application of this technology on the Sicilian electricity grid, to reduce potential network congestion and system inefficiencies.The results obtained demonstrate the significant potential of Dynamic Thermal Rating in Sicily. These devices would allow a substantial increase in the current flow on electrical lines without violating safety limits.
Molecular Epidemiology of Streptococcus pneumoniae Serotype 1: A Systematic Review of Circulating Clones and Clonal Clusters
Authors: Ntim Onyansaniba K. , Donkor Eric S.
Published: December 2024

Background: Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 1 is one of the most prevalent serotypes commonly associated with invasive pneumococcal disease cases and outbreaks worldwide. Several sequence types of this serotype have been identified globally, including those exhibiting both virulence potential and antimicrobial resistance profiles. This systematic review presents the global distribution of clones of pneumococcal serotype 1, describing their circulating patterns in various regions in the world. Methods: A database search was conducted in Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science using keywords related to Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 1. The inclusion criteria entailed peer-reviewed studies published in English describing the utilization of at least one molecular genotyping tool to identify S. pneumoniae serotype 1 clones based on their sequence types. Data extracted were managed and analyzed using Microsoft Excel 365. Results: Forty-three studies were finally included in the systematic review. A total of 103 MLST serotype 1 sequence types were identified in 48 countries. These clones were widely reported to be associated with invasive pneumococcal diseases. Globally, ST217 and ST306 clonal complexes (CC217 and CC306) were the predominant lineages of serotype 1 sequence types, exhibiting distinct continental distribution patterns. CC217 characterized by ST217, ST303, ST612, ST618, and ST3081 was predominant in Africa and Asia. ST306 clonal complex group into ST306, ST304, and ST227 were mostly found in Europe, Oceania, North America, and some countries in South America. ST615 was predominant in Chile, Peru, and Argentina. Conclusion: The hypervirulence nature of serotype 1 coupled with its complex genetic diversity, poses a significant public health threat. Consequently, our findings emphasize the need for enhanced surveillance and targeted interventions to mitigate the spread of these hypervirulent clones, ultimately informing evidence-based strategies for disease prevention and control.

Bioinputs are natural products applied to crops that contribute to a more sustainable agriculture by boosting yields and reducing environmental impacts. This study explores the effect of complementary inoculation with growth-promoting bacteria on soybean development and yield. Five treatments with growth-promoting bacteria were evaluated: T1 - Control (no inoculation), T2 - Azospirillum brasilense strains CNPSo 2083 and CNPSo 2084, T3 - Pseudomonas fluorescens strain CNPSo 2719; Azospirillum brasilense strains CNPSo 2083 and CNPSo 2084, T4 - Priestia aryabhattai strain CBMAI 1120; Bacillus haynesii strain CCT 7926; Bacillus circulans strain CCT 0026 and T5 - Priestia megaterium strain BRM 119; Bacillus subtilis strain BRM 2084. In comparison with the control, all treatments with growth-promoting bacteria of the genera Azospirillum, Pseudomonas, Priestia and Bacillus, applied after soybean emergence, induced higher grain yield. Co-inoculation with Priestia megaterium and Bacillus subtilis (treatment T5) resulted in a higher 1000-grain weight, while Priestia aryabhattai, Bacillus haynesii and Bacillus circulans (treatment T4) increased the number of pods and shoot dry weight.

Authors: Assar Rodrigo , Briceño-Mayorga Gonzalo , Jiménez Héctor , Muñoz-Núñez Camilo , Fica-Alarcón Leonardo , Molina María Ignacia
Published: December 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified the challenges of managing venous thromboembolic events (VTE), with SARS-CoV-2 infection linked to a higher risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and progression to pulmonary embolism (PE), often resulting in elevated mortality. This retrospective case-control study evaluates the effects of anticoagulant and corticosteroid therapies on survival in DVT patients with and without COVID-19, examining factors associated with PE progression. Key clinical markers, including Sepsis-Induced Coagulopathy (SIC) scores, were assessed for their predictive value in mortality outcomes. Our findings reveal that while anticoagulants are essential in thrombotic management, they may raise cancer- or sepsis-related mortality in non-PE patients. Corticosteroids, though beneficial in severe COVID-19 cases, were linked to increased cancer-related mortality in PE patients, likely due to immunosuppression. These results underscore the need for tailored therapeutic approaches and individualized risk assessments to improve survival outcomes in high-risk populations during COVID-19.
A Comprehensive Literature Review Of Dysphagia Screening Protocols for Stroke
Authors: Pitton Rissardo Jamir , Fornari Caprara Ana Letícia
Published: December 2024

Dysphagia is a common complication in acute stroke patients, affecting up to 50% of cases. Timely identification and management of dysphagia are critical to prevent adverse outcomes such as aspiration pneumonia, malnutrition, dehydration, and prolonged hospital stays. This literature review examines the effectiveness and implementation of dysphagia screening protocols for acute stroke patients in various healthcare settings. Key components of dysphagia screening protocols, including timing, tools, and multidisciplinary involvement, are discussed. The review highlights the benefits of using standardized screening tools such as the Bedside Swallowing Assessment and the Toronto Bedside Swallowing Screening Test, which have demonstrated reliability and accuracy in detecting dysphagia. Barriers to effective screening, including lack of trained personnel, inconsistent protocol application, and resource limitations, are also explored. Evidence suggests that early dysphagia screening—ideally within 24 hours of stroke onset—significantly reduces the risk of complications and improves patient outcomes. The integration of dysphagia screening into stroke care pathways and the role of training and education for healthcare professionals are emphasized as critical for successful implementation. This review concludes with recommendations for practice, including adopting validated tools, ensuring timely screening, and fostering interprofessional collaboration to enhance the quality of care for acute stroke patients.

Harnessing solar energy offers a sustainable alternative for powering electrolysis for green hydrogen production as well as wastewater treatment. High costs and logistical challenges of electrolysis have limited widespread investigation and implementation of electrochemical technologies on an industrial scale. To overcome these challenges this study designs and tests a new approach to chemical experiments and wastewater treatment research using a portable stand-alone open-source solar photovoltaic (PV)-powered station that can be located onsite at a wastewater treatment plant with unreliable electrical power. The experimental system is equipped with an energy monitoring data acquisition system. In addition, sensors enable real-time monitoring of gases: CO, CO₂, CH₄, H₂, H₂S, and NH₃, along with temperature, humidity, and volatile organic compounds, enhancing safety during electrochemical experiments on wastewater, which may release hazardous gases. SAMA software was used to evaluate energy-sharing scenarios under different grid-connected conditions and the system can operate off the power grid for 98% of the year in Ontario, Canada. The complete system has been tested utilizing a laboratory-scale electrolyzer (electrodes of SS316L, Duplex 2205, titanium grade II and graphite) with electrolyte solutions of potassium hydroxide, sulfuric acid and also secondary wastewater effluent. The electrolytic cell specifically developed for testing electrode materials and wastewater showed a Faraday efficiency up to 95% and an energy efficiency of 55% at STP demonstrating the potential for use of this technology in future work.

Background and Objectives: Deep neck infections (DNI) are severe diagnoses that can cause serious complications. However, are not available enough data to predict the evolution of this pathology. This study aimed to review the microbiology of DNI and to identify the factors that influence prolonged hospitalization. It was designed so that based on the results obtained, the evolution of patients with this pathology could be evaluated. Materials and Methods: In retrospective cohort observational analytical study a 7-years, we analyzed 138 patients with DNI who were diagnosed and received surgical treatment. Results: Reduced lymphocyte percentages and increased neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios (NLR) were significantly associated with complications (p < 0.001 and p = 0.0041, respectively). Laryngo-tracheal infections were significantly associated with complications (25.53%) (p = 0.0004). Diabetes mellitus and immunocompromised status, were strongly associated with complications (p < 0.001 and p = 0.0056, respectively), establishing these conditions as significant risk factors. Patients with complications experienced substantially longer hospitalizations, with a mean duration of 24.9 days compared to 8.32 days in patients without complications (p < 0.001). Complications were observed in 47 patients (34.06%). The most common complications were airway obstruction, which occurred in 26 patients (18.84%), and mediastinitis, which was noted in 31 patients (22.46%). Patients requiring tracheotomy due to airway obstruction had 6.51 times higher odds of long-term hospitalization compared to those without airway obstruction (OR = 6.51; p < 0.001). Mediastinitis was associated with a 4.81-fold increase in the odds of prolonged hospitalization (OR = 4.81; p < 0.001). Monomicrobial infections were observed in 35.5% of cases, with no significant difference between short-term (< 2 weeks, 37.33%) and long-term (≥ 2 weeks, 33.33%) hospitalization groups (p = 0.8472). Conversely, polymicrobial infections were significantly associated with prolonged hospitalization, occurring in 20.63% of long-term cases compared to 6.66% of short-term cases (p < 0.001). The most common aerobic bacteria were observed Staphylococcus aureus (14.28%) Streptococcus constellatus (12.69%) and Streptococcus viridans (7.93%) during long-term hospitalizations. The comparative analysis of the Kaplan-Meier survival curves according to the presence of infection revealed a significantly lower survival in cases with a positive culture. Conclusions: Deep neck infection is a complex pathology, whose therapeutic management remains a challenge in order to reduce the length of hospitalization and mortality.
Refined Theories for Beam Bending: A Simplified Approach to Structural Analysis
Authors: Akhazhanov Sungat , Nurgoziyeva Aizhan , Matin Dauren , Akhazhanov Talgat
Published: December 2024

This study presents a refined beam theory aimed at overcoming the limitations of classical approaches, such as the Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko models, which often neglect transverse shear deformation and rotational inertia effects. These limitations become significant when analyzing thick beams or structures made of advanced materials. The proposed theory assumes a linearly elastic, homogeneous, and isotropic material with a uniform rectangular cross-section. While maintaining simplicity and a strong resemblance to the classical Bernoulli-Euler theory, this refined approach provides a more accurate framework for analyzing beam bending. A simplified governing equation is derived, offering a straightforward formulation suitable for practical engineering applications. General analytical solutions are obtained for thick isotropic beams under various boundary conditions, including simply supported, cantilever, and fixed configurations, subjected to both uniformly and unevenly distributed loads. The study derives expressions for transverse displacement, strain components, stress components, and internal forces. The accuracy and applicability of the proposed theory are validated by comparing its results with those of other advanced shear deformation theories, demonstrating its effectiveness for precise structural analysis.
Challenges and Insights in Absolute Quantification of Recombinant Therapeutic Antibodies by Mass Spectrometry: An Introductory Review
Authors: Döring Sarah , Weller Michael G. , Reinders Yvonne , Konthur Zoltán , Jaeger Carsten
Published: December 2024

This review describes mass spectrometry (MS)-based approaches for the absolute quantification of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), focusing on technical challenges in sample treatment and calibration. Therapeutic mAbs are crucial for treating cancer, inflammatory, infectious, and autoimmune diseases. We trace their development from hybridoma technology and the first murine mAbs in 1975 to today’s chimeric and fully human mAbs. With increasing commercial relevance, absolute quantification of mAbs, traceable to SI units, has attracted attention from science, industry, and national metrology institutes (NMIs). Quantification of proteotypic peptides after enzymatic digestion using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has emerged as the most viable strategy, though methods targeting intact mAbs are still being explored. We review peptide-based quantification, focusing on critical experimental steps like denaturation, reduction, alkylation, choice of digestion enzyme, and selection of signature peptides. Challenges in amino acid analysis (AAA) for quantifying pure mAbs and peptide calibrators, along with software tools for targeted MS data analysis, are also discussed. Short explanations within each chapter provide newcomers an overview of the field’s challenges. Finally, we discuss prospects and limitations of developing standardized protocols and certified reference materials (CRMs) and suggest future applications of newer technologies for the absolute quantification of therapeutic antibodies.
An Atmospheric Bore Formed from the Collision Between Gust Front and Sea Breeze and Its Role in the Convection Initiation
Authors: Huang Long , Zhang Shushi , Xu Xin , Huang Hong , Xu Fen
Published: December 2024

This study examines an atmospheric bore formed from the collision between a colder gust front (GF) and a warmer sea breeze (SB) over the Bohai sea coast of China during the night of June 12-13, 2018. Utilizing radar data, ground-based observations, and high-resolution numerical simulations, the findings indicate that the approaching SB establishes a stabilizing boundary layer (SBL) into which the GF from the convective downdraft intrudes, transitioning from a density current to a non-undular bore and eventually to an undular one. The undular bore then propagates within favorable trapping layers associated with the SB, facilitating convection initiation (CI). Dynamics governing this bore formation process are also investigated and validated using laboratory model theories. Results also reveal that the structure of the mesoscale convective system (MCS) is significantly influenced by the presence of the bore. Substantial convective available potential energy (CAPE) -rich air parcels within the SBL are lifted by the bore, fueling the MCS and lead to CI, thereby sustaining the MCS's intensity and longevity. Given the prevalence of GFs and SBs over the eastern coastal regions of China, their collisions will create a high likelihood of bore formation, regardless of the environmental boundary layer conditions. This significantly enhances the potential for bores to play a crucial role in CI, particularly during the daytime.
