Authors:   State Fire Academy of EMERCOM of Russia, Kharisov Gayaz H. , Mirzayants Artur V. ,   State Fire Academy of EMERCOM of Russia
Published: July 2022

PURPOSE. The article describes experiments on identifying the optimal diameter of a fire rescue rope, which ensures a safe descent speed for a self-rescuing person. For a physically developed person, self-rescue in a fire does not require a specialized rescue device. It is enough to have a rescue rope and gloves that prevent burns resulting from rubbing the palms on the rope surface. METHODS. The authors carried out a static experiment to identify the optimal rescue rope diameter at which the descent speed of a self-rescuing person will be safe. Using probability theory methods and mathematical statistics, parameters of a rescue rope that can bear up a self-rescuing person are calculated. FINDINGS. The authors experimentally substantiate parameters values of a rescue rope, which an average person can use for self-rescue from height in case of fire. The identified optimal theoretical diameter of a rescue rope for self-rescue in case of fire is 23.1 mm for men and 21.2 mm for women. The closest standard diameter (i.e. the diameter produced by the industry) is 22 mm. Using rope of such a diameter, the average duration of a self-rescuing person hanging on a rescue rope is 68.4 s for men and 41.8 s for women. RESEARCH APPLICATION FIELD. The results of the study can be used when organizing self-rescue of physically developed people starting from the second floor and above in buildings of any functional purpose, including hotels, hostels, educational institutions. CONCLUSIONS. The obtained results require confirmation by dynamic tests namely by sliding of a self-rescuing person along a rescue rope of an experimentally determined diameter at a safe speed. Tests will define a safe speed and develop a method to determine the height at which each working age individual (an individual with rather strong arms) can use a rescue rope for self-rescue from the second floor and above.

PURPOSE. Extinguishing refined oil products with foam generated from a synthetic foaming agent with the use of a colloidal system of neutral gases and refrigerants as the gas phase is considered. A series of experiments was carried out to determine the fire extinguishing efficiency of foam, based on solutions of the “Aquafom” type S foaming agent, of various concentrations with the introduction of neutral gases and refrigerants. Data on the main criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of foam extinguishing were obtained. METHODS. The authors conducted laboratory tests in order to define the dependence of critical and optimal values of quenching parameters on the intensity of the supply of foams with different gas phases. FINDINGS. A histogram of the extinguishing efficiency parameter dependence on the methods of generating foam and the methods of feeding foam into the combustion chamber was obtained. Based on the numerical value of the extinguishing efficiency indicators, an analysis of the effectiveness for each extinguishing method was carried out. RESEARCH APPLICATION FIELD. It is advisable to introduce the outcomes of the study in research and educational process. CONCLUSIONS. The method of obtaining foam by mixing a solution of the foaming agent “Aquafom” type S with chladone 227ea with a sublayer foam supply to the combustion hearth turned out to have the highest parameter of extinguishing efficiency. Consequently, the foam generated by this method proved to be the most effective in extinguishing a model fire source.

PURPOSE. Analysis of using air curtains in various industries of our country including smoke protection systems for buildings shows that air curtains are widely used now. However, until recently, air curtains have not been used in smoke protection systems. Meanwhile, their use will allow solving a number of problems in the field of smoke protection. The aim of the study was to identify fire regulation shortcomings of air curtains use in smoke protection systems, as well as to find possible ways for further research in this field. METHODS. To evaluate the available data theoretical research methods have been used: analysis and synthesis. FINDINGS. The analysis of normative documents on air curtains use in the field of smoke protection, calculation methods of air curtains, as well as research in this field showed the shortcomings of air curtains fire regulation and the problems of calculation methods. Possible ways of research and search for air curtains optimal parameters for the purposes of building smoke protection are determined. RESEARCH APPLICATION FIELD. The results of the regulatory documents analysis on air curtains use in the field of smoke protection, calculation methods of air curtains, as well as previous studies can be used for further research of air curtains for smoke protection in order to obtain optimal parameters to improve their efficiency in fire conditions. In the future this will improve the method of air curtains calculating for smoke protection purposes, as well as eliminate the shortcomings of fire regulation in this field. CONCLUSIONS. According to the results of regulatory requirements analysis it has been found that at present a sufficiently large number of parameters, which can significantly affect the efficiency of air curtains to protect openings in fire conditions are not taken into account. The formulas for calculation methods of air curtains are derived from the equations for an isothermal jet and do not take into account the impact of the jet on heat and mass transfer in the room under fire, as well as the influence of thermogasdynamic conditions on the jet in the room. To determine the optimal parameters of air curtains for the purposes of building smoke protection, a more detailed study of heat and mass transfer processes based on a three-dimensional mathematical model (CFD modeling) and field experimental studies are required.

Authors: Murphy Sierra N. , Nguyen Brandon A. , Singh Rohin , Brown Nolan J. , Shahrestani Shane , Neal Matthew T. , Patel Naresh P. , Kalani Maziyar A.
Published: July 2022

Background:

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic, progressive, inflammatory disease of the spine and SI joints. Diagnostic criteria and treatments have continued to evolve, necessitating a historical compendium of AS and its management. This paper aims to review the historical context underlying the discovery of AS, as well as the major diagnostic and therapeutic discoveries in the last two centuries.

Methods:

A scoping review of the literature pertaining to AS was performed via the Pubmed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. Future directions of AS treatments were assessed by querying the clinicaltrials.gov website.

Results:

The history of AS can be traced as far back as ancient Egypt (as evidenced by the discovery of its presence in ancient Egyptian mummies) to the late 20th century, when the inherited nature of AS was linked to a genetic factor, HLA-B27. Each discovery made throughout the years led to further investigations into the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of AS. The criteria to differentiate AS from rheumatoid arthritis were first reported in 1893. Since then, diagnostic criteria for AS have undergone a series of changes before the present-day diagnostic criteria for AS were ultimately determined in 2009 by the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society.

Conclusion:

As the pathophysiology of AS is better understood, healthcare providers are able to diagnose and treat the condition more effectively. In particular, earlier diagnosis and multiple treatment options have facilitated efficient and more effective treatment.

Authors: Anusuya C. , Pavithra V. , Kumar Prasanna , Rajendiran Swaminathan
Published: July 2022

Intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (ITAC) is the second most frequent sinonasal adenocarcinoma. High incidence of these tumors was seen among workers with occupational wood dust exposure, particularly of hardwood dusts. Furthermore, ITACs associated with dust exposure were diagnosed mostly in men (85–95%) and predominantly in the ethmoid sinus. This contrasts with sporadic ITACs that are more frequent in women and often arise in the maxillary antrum. ITAC had striking histomorphologic and immunophenotypic similarities with colorectal adenocarcinomas, but on the level of molecular pathologic mechanisms, these tumors have their own specific features different from gastrointestinal tumors. A 58-year-old female came with the chief complaints of difficulty in breathing and left-sided nasal obstruction for the past 1 month. On local examination, nasal septum was deviated to the right side on visualizing the left nasal cavity showed a polypoidal growth occupying the entire nasal cavity. Paranasal sinuses with contrast computed tomography (CT) showed a chronic granulomatous lesion in the left nasal cavity with surrounding inflammatory changes involving the ipsilateral sinuses. This patient was planned for functional endoscopic sinus surgery and specimen was sent for histopathological diagnosis. Contradictory to CT scan result, on gross and histopathology, the lesion was diagnosed to be intestinal type of sinonasal adenocarcinoma.

Authors: Antony Tessa , Anandan Yamini , Somu Lakshmanan , Sekar Uma
Published: July 2022

Vibrio cholerae is gram-negative bacilli belonging to the Vibrionaceae family generally found in brackish and marine water. Based on the O antigen on the cell wall of the bacteria, they are divided into three major subgroups – V. cholerae O1, V. cholerae O139, and V. cholerae non-O1/non-O139. The serogroups O1 and O139 harboring cholera toxin gene cause diarrhea, while the non-O1/non-O139 can cause a milder diarrhea and extraintestinal infections. We report a case of acute exacerbation of chronic suppurative otitis media by V. cholerae O39, which is classified in the non-O1/non-O139 group. The patient presented with slowly progressive painful ear discharge which evolved over a period of 3 months. V. cholerae O39 was isolated from the ear discharge by culture and confirmed by serologic and molecular testing. The patient improved symptomatically with 1 week of treatment with intravenous ciprofloxacin and tobramycin ear drops.

Published: July 2022

Objectives:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition of life-threatening nature presenting with deterioration in kidney function which is both irreversible and progressive. It is characterized by progressive incapability of the kidneys to filter the excretory products of blood consequently necessitating dialysis to prevent azotemia, end-organ damage, and ultimately death. The role of the kidneys in the homeostasis of magnesium and conservation of this neglection ion’s concentration in blood is undeniable. The objective of the present study was to estimate serum magnesium in CKD subjects and healthy control groups.

Material and Methods:

Serum creatinine, eGFR, Serum magnesium was assesed in 37 CKD patients and 43 healthy controls.

Results:

The serum creatinine levels were significantly higher (P < 0.001) in cases (2.4 ± 0.88 [mg/dL]) when compared to healthy controls (0.85 ± 0.1 [mg/dL]) [Table 1]. The estimated GFR was calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula and was 31.2 ± 12.1 mL/min in cases and 85.67 ± 13.1 mL/min in controls and they were significantly different (P < 0.001). Serum magnesium was 2.02 ± 0.36 mg/dL in cases and 2.01 ± 0.17 mg/dL in controls.

Conclusion:

The overall distribution showed a trend of hypomagnesemia in CKD patients but it was not statistically significant (P = 0.877). In our study, though statistically trivial, we found a trend toward hypomagnesemia in CKD patients when compared to controls. The lack of significance could be because the CKD patients were not grouped according to stages. A larger study with proper categorization and exclusion can provide us with better insights into magnesium dynamics in CKD patients.

Authors: Nirwan Mohit
Published: July 2022

Antarctica is a natural laboratory for scientists and an adventure destination for tourists. It has challenging yet beautiful landscape. Due to extreme environment and isolation, wintering over in Antarctica is still challenging, even with advancement in accommodations. Polar scientists have focused on the aspects of Antarctica according to their specialty. For example, psychologists have highlighted polar psychology; likewise, physiologists and other allied human biologists have pointed-out to biochemistry, immunology, and stress biology. A researcher new to Antarctica gets confused to encounter diverse literature of different domains. These reasons require a review on the scientific aspects of wintering-over in Antarctica to enlighten first time readers. Journal articles from PubMed and Google Scholar (up to 2021) were searched with the search terms “Antarctica,” in combination with the words “human physiology” and “human psychology”. Vivid direct quotes of early explorers of the heroic age of polar expeditions are described and 53 articles were finally selected. The human psychophysiology points of discussion in this narrative review are geomagnetism, circadian rhythm, immunity, hypoxia, bone metabolic changes, acute mountain sickness, and stress biology concerning extended stay in Antarctica.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPLICATION IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN UKRAINE
Authors: Shulyk Yuliia
Published: July 2022

The article deals with the peculiarities of the project management application in public administration of Ukrainian institutions. Changes in the financial management of Ukraine, reforms in the administrative, security, educational, medical, cultural, law enforcement sectors have led to the developments in the system of public administration. Decentralization reform has been a particularly important stimulus. Ukraine has developed and applied a regulatory framework for the development of strategies, programs, projects, with defined methods of calculation and investment support. As in the business environment, the project management in public administration uses the connection of projects, programs with the strategy of the state, communities and industries. The forms and directions of the project approach application  have been expanded both at the state and local levels, which contributes to the change of management from the process approach to achieving results of public importance, strengthening the funds efficiency, and public involvement in control over public expenditures. Projects in public administration in Ukraine are used in the following forms: public investment projects, projects financed by ministries and departments (internal and distributed externally on the basis of competitions); public-private partnership projects; projects submitted for financing by international organizations, banks; participative public budgets. The base for financing projects has expanded with extensive use of international finance. Project management also affects the organizational structure of institutions. In Ukraine, project departments / offices have appeared in local governments, institutions, and ministries, which helps to expand the application of the project approach. The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has an Office of Reforms of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine to assist in the development and implementation of reforms in the country. The article identifies weaknesses in the application of project management, in particular the need to improve the training of public administration in the organization of teamwork, improve monitoring and project control, risk assessment; improving communication between state, local authorities and the public.

FEATURES OF COGNITIVE MARKETING IN BEHAVIORAL ECONOMY
Authors:   Ternopil Ivan Puluj National Technical University, Markovych Iryna
Published: July 2022

The article considers the prerequisites for the emergence of cognitive marketing on the border of economics and psychology. The main changes in approaches to entrepreneurship today are shown, for example, the production and sales cycle has become more personalized for the consumer, and this is reflected in the business processes of suppliers, manufacturers, intermediaries, customers and the behavior of direct consumers. It is shown that cognitive marketing, in contrast to traditional, does not involve only the analysis of existing needs of potential consumers, but focused on the formation of these needs through the spread of ideas of a certain lifestyle and consumption. That is, the demand for goods is a consequential effect of previously formed consumer behavior. The information on the differences in the concepts of traditional and cognitive marketing, in particular the emphasis is on the formation of value - the value of a product or service can be formed by the manufacturer or seller before the sale, not the consumer after using the product or service. The article outlines the scheme of the process of forming consumer consciousness by a company that implements elements of cognitive marketing. It consists of the following elements: providing information and knowledge to the consumer about a certain lifestyle and consumption; formation of new consumer needs; positioning the company through the prism of opportunities to meet new consumer needs. The classification of cognitive marketing tools is given. In the most general grouping of all of them can be divided into 2 groups: instrumental and socio-psychological. The peculiarities of some tools that can be used in the marketing activities of enterprises, in particular the research methodology ZMET, which belongs to the socio-psychological group, are considered. It has been proven that cognitive marketing is a relatively young, but extremely interesting and practically oriented science, the results of which can be used in the work of a large number of businesses to improve their efficiency.

Published: July 2022

Modern financial systems are global in nature. The article reveals the current state of world financial markets. The example of stock index trends shows the main trends in global financial markets as a result of global challenges (the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine). The trends of stock market indicators in different regions of the world are analyzed. The article reveals the current factors that affect the trends of stock indices. The influence of economic and political consequences caused by the pandemic and war on the further development of the world economy is studied. The role of geopolitical events on the development of commodity markets, in particular gold and oil, is shown. The main stock indices and how they react to changes in the world economic environment are analyzed. Thus, the article shows that negative global signals are causing concerns about rising inflation around the world, and rising rates are affecting investor sentiment. It has been proven that financial markets can calm down from the global decisions of international leaders and organizations. However, very often geopolitical decisions show signs of indecision, which affects the continuation of hostilities in Ukraine and contributes to the subsequent fluctuations of financial indicators. t is shown that the volatility of financial markets will remain high in the last week of June, due to the planned expiration of contracts for derivative instruments in June and political decisions of the G7 countries, which may ban Russian gold imports on Tuesday, June 28. The article analyzes the characteristics of the trends of major world stock indices and reveals the possible prospects for their development, as well as identifies the main factors of stock market trends at the present stage of development. The current state of the financial market of Ukraine is studied.
THE ALGORITHM FOR COMPILING THE TAX DECLARATION OF THE PAYER OF THE UNIFORM TAX UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE STATE OF MARTIAL
Authors:   International European University, Pryimak Nataliia
Published: July 2022

Introduction. Traditionally, the introduction of new taxes (for example, 2% of the single tax) led to the need to approve the appropriate form of tax declaration for both individuals and legal entities. It happened this time as well. The form of the tax declaration of payers of the single tax of the third group for the period of martial law and state of emergency in Ukraine was approved by the order of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine dated April 26, 2022 No. 124 "On approval of the form of the tax declaration of the payer of the single tax of the third group for the period of martial law and state of emergency in Ukraine ". In general, the tax declaration of taxpayers of the single tax of the third group has a very simplified form, which consists of three parts and two appendices. At the same time, it is necessary to have an appropriate set of tools to correctly fill in the relevant lines of such a tax declaration. Such a tool can be an algorithm for drawing up a tax declaration of a single tax payer under martial law. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to develop an algorithm for drawing up a tax declaration of a single tax payer under martial law. Results. In the course of the research, the procedure for filling out the tax declaration of single tax payers under martial law conditions was identified. The proposed algorithm for filling out the lines of such a declaration made it possible to make it correctly, which in turn will be useful for all legal entities that prepare such a tax declaration, and the proposed algorithm will be useful for the authorities of the State Tax Service of Ukraine when conducting inspections of single tax payers. Discussion. In further scientific research, it is proposed to focus attention on the discussion regarding the study of the feasibility of the existence of a simplified taxation system, which on the one hand is a catalyst forthe development of small businesses, and on the other hand is a tool for minimizing tax payments to the state budget.

Published: July 2022

The article considers the international legal status of the demilitarized zone (DMZ) between North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) and South Korea (Republic of Korea), its preconditions, and consequences. It was emphasized that the DMZ provides for the liquidation of military facilities and if that is not possible, a ban on their use for military purposes may be introduced at the stage of post-war relations between states or during the armistice. It is established that the creation of the demilitarized zone began in 1945 when two "allies" (the United States and the Soviet Union) shared control of the Korean Peninsula. It is emphasized that by 1948 the Soviet leadership had established a communist regime in the area north of the 38th parallel, and a US-backed military government had been formed in the south. The article notes that although the Korean War (1950-1953), aimed at resolving the question of "which regime represented the 'real' Korea," is still not over (North and South Korea are still formally at war, as the peace treaty after the de facto the end of the Korean War in 1953 was never signed), the conditional end of the conflict was the signing of the 1953 Armistice Agreement. The main content of the study is the analysis of the DMZ between North Korea and South Korea, the legal status of which is governed by the Armistice Agreement of 1953. The analysis of the agreement in the article is prohibited within the DMZ (Article 1, paragraph 6). The Military Ceasefire Commission and the Neutral Observation Commission, which were established under the 1953 Ceasefire Agreement, are mentioned. provided by this agreement, it is responsible for the implementation of a certain part. Discussion issues are being raised regarding the creation of the World Peace Park in the DMZ. The article examines the problems of the Joint Security Area (JSA), which is located in the border village of Panmunjom and is a meeting area for representatives of the North and South. It is noted that despite the presence of the DMZ and numerous attempts to establish relations between the two countries, there are still constant risks of escalation of the conflict between North Korea and South Korea, which causes constant tension for citizens of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the international community.

Du discours aux représentations du coaching : sémiotique d’une pratique protéiforme
Authors: Navarette Pierre-Antoine
Published: July 2022

La sémiotique du coaching présentée dans cet article à partir d’observations de terrain sur les mots du coaching, met en évidence les représentations d’une pratique ouverte oscillant entre des pôles tensifs : posture frontale ou latérale du coach, pratique de l’urgence ou pratique de la maturation débouchant sur l’action, structure du coaché égocentrée ou allocentrée. Ces trois dimensions réunies, celles d’une deixis pragmatique, révèlent alors des formes sémiotiques du coaching, entre coaching coercitif et coaching réflexif, et autant de stratégies du coaché pour évoluer en milieu entrepreneurial. Au-delà des représentations, entre doxa et para-doxa, entre sociolecte et idiolecte, c’est la pertinence du coaching en tant que langage à part entière qui est interrogé : un statut sémiotique en devenir faisant de la pratique un mode de communication et de signification aux enjeux modernes. Le coaching serait alors une fonction sémiotique de l’agir, et du réinvestissement ontologique pour un coaché en quête de sens. De fait, mise à part une dénomination parfois qualifiée de magique ou fourre-tout, la pratique du coaching apparaît comme un puissant outil d’incarnation sémiotique.

Published: July 2022

Le sujet de cet article est la citation en peinture en tant que mode spécifique de la praxis énonciative. En particulier, partant d’un texte de Louis Marin de 1989, l’article se concentre sur certaines œuvres de Jasper Johns qui présentent, avec plus ou moins d’évidence, des références au Polyptyque d’Issenheim de Matthias Grünewald. L’analyse des œuvres nous permet d’avancer quelques hypothèses sur les stratégies énonciatives qui sous-tendent le travail de Jasper Johns.
Iconoclastie del sé. Pratiche della verità e ideologia della rappresentazione nell’arte comportamentale di Marina Abramović
Authors: Addis Maria Cristina
Published: July 2022

Il contributo tenta di sondare alcune delle questioni estetiche e biopolitiche sollevate dalla performance art elaborata da Marina Abramović nel corso di più di cinque decadi, concentrandosi sulle forme di istituzione dell’artista/performer come soggetto di verità e dell’arte della performance come pratica del dire-il-vero.Insieme macchina estetica coercitiva e progetto esistenziale, l’arte del comportamento (Abramović 2012) sembra riattivare negli spazi mondani dell’arte contemporanea alcune antiche pratiche del sé che trovano matrice nella parrēsia, figura di verità rubricata da Michel Foucault fra le aleturgie, forme tramite cui l’individuo si rappresenta a se stesso ed è riconosciuto dagli altri come veritiero. Il titolo, Iconoclastie del sé, condensa i meccanismi e gli effetti di un dispositivo enunciazionale imperniato sulla costruzione e distruzione di immagini di soggetto che offendono e suscitano violenza, figurano la lacerazione del sé e disgregano lo sguardo, esibiscono gli stati e i moti di corpo e coscienza e mobilitano il ‘mondo interiore’ dell’osservatore al punto di condurlo a interrompere la performance. Lo studio propone l’analisi comparata di alcune opere – le cinque performance che compongono il ciclo Rhythm (1973-74) e The Artist is Present (2010) – la cui distanza cronologica, tematica ed espressiva meglio evidenzia la comune logica figurale e tensiva che struttura e modella di volta in volta il processo di “teatralizzazione del principio di non dissimulazione” (Foucault 2009) incarnato dal corpo performativo e la teoria dell’individuo ad esso sottesa.

Adverbs are the least clearly defined part of speech in grammars, and for many linguists make up a motley class with mysterious outlines. This paper attempts a unifying definition of the class of adverbs from the perspective of pragmatics. This pragmatic definition is supported by conventional computational analysis as well as by precise frequency counts in contemporary French political speech. This dual ‘logometric’ approach that quantitative and qualitative approaches are inseparable, and claims to account for quality through quantity.
Analyse pragma-énonciative des points de vue en confrontation dans les hyperboles vives: hyper-assertion et sur-énonciation
Authors: Rabatel Alain
Published: July 2022

Die lebendige Hyperbel ist ein beabsichtigtes und ernsthaftes Spiel mit der Diskrepanz zwischen einer übertriebenen Aussage und nicht-hyperbolischen Ausdrücken. Zur Schau gestellte Übertreibung ist Teil einer problematischen Ausdrucksart, die transgressive Denkweisen rechtfertigt, indem sie generell zu wenig beachtete Eigenschaften des Diskursgegenstandes hervorhebt. Auf sprachlicher Ebene verleihen der Hyperbel alle Intensitätsformen den Status einer "Hyper-Behauptung", für welche der Sender die Verantwortung übernimmt. Letzterer entscheidet sich für eine "Über-Aussage", bei welcher der hyperbolische Standpunkt relevanter erscheint als der entsprechende nicht-hyperbolische Standpunkt.
L'hyperbole fictionnelle: exagération et suffixation dans l'œuvre romanesque de Madeleine de Scudéry
Authors: Duval Suzanne
Published: July 2022

Die mondänen Feenmärchen, die am Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts erscheinen, erneuern die ebenso populäre wie traditionelle Märchengattung durch eine stilistische Verfeinerung, welche auf einer systematischen Verwendung der Hyperbel basiert. Die unwirklichen Aspekte dieser Märchen werden vor allem durch die markante Hervorhebung der thaumaturgischen Eigenschaften deutlich, welche die literarischen Charaktere auszeichnen. Mit anderen Worten wird das Fantastische durch die offensichtliche stilistische Übertreibung, die eine aktive Lektüre durch einen aufgeklärten Leser verlangt, entmystifiziert. Letztlich ist festzuhalten, dass die in Feenmärchen oft vorkommende Hyperbel entscheidend den Heldenstatus bestimmter Figuren mitprägt und auf sprachwissenschaftlicher Ebene die Arbitrarität des linguistischen Zeichens verdeutlicht.
"Du vin pour choper": identité masculine, blague (hétéro)sexuelles et affiliation lors d'une première rencontre entre hommes
Authors: Piccoli Vanessa , Chernyshova Elizaveta
Published: July 2022

In this paper, we present a study of the interactional mechanisms involved in the construction of a peer group in the context of a first professional encounter at an international wine fair. In this single case study, we examine a particular interaction between French and Italian winegrowers, while focusing on the ways in which a shared masculine heterosexual identity emerges throughout affiliative practices, more precisely sexual jokes, shared laugh and storytelling sequences. This paper follows the conversation analysis perspective and the line of research of linguistic studies on gender performance. Moreover, the analysis takes into account the articulation between gender identities and other categorizations that the participants mobilize in these sequences (age, nationality).
Circonscrire le discours de haine numérique. Processus argumentatifs, idéologies et mémoires discursives
Authors: Moïse Claudine , Hugonnier Claire , Guellouz Mariem , Lorenzi Bailly Nolwenn
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to characterize the discursive processes of hate speech, direct or hidden, and to analyze how digital practices could affect them. We anchor our reflection in the framework of the role of power relations and ideologies that determine hate speech through the notions of preserved ethos and "discursive memory". In this sense, our analyses involve a critical argumentative and sociolinguistic approach to discourse. In such a perspective, circulating ideologies are to be grasped from the point of view of discursive struggles and power relations. Our analysis will be based on a corpus of comments posted in response to a publication on the Facebook page "Tous contre l'Homophobie", pleading for the right to adoption for homosexual couples.
Improved Prediction of Maximum EQE in TADF-based OLEDs Through Ensemble Learning
Authors: GARAIN BIDHAN CHANDRA , Pati Swapan K.
Published: July 2022

In recent times, we have seen colossal growth in the field of Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF)-based OLEDs in terms of synthesis and applications in sensing and imaging. However, the device-level application is still limited to the unpredictability of external quantum efficiency (EQE). Although theoretical research involving internal quantum efficiency (IQE) and mechanistic pathways for reverse intersystem crossing (rISC) in TADF systems have been explored quite rigorously, investigation on EQE is lacking. With the emergence of data-driven analysis being the fourth paradigm of science (empirical, theoretical, and computational being the previous three), we have employed ML models on 30 features of 123 samples, availed from literature to predict the EQEmax. On the one hand, the employed models capture device selectivity but are prevalent in the emissive range of chromophores. We have shown that Gradient Boosting (GB), an ensemble learning model, has been able to predict EQEmax with r2 score of 0.71±0.04/0.84 and a low RMSE of 4.22±0.55/2.53 for the train/test set. Considering the current state-of-the-art (SOTA), this is the best model which can predict for TADF chromophores of any emissive range and delineate the effect of device architecture. We also have carried out feature importance analysis to make this so-called black-box model interpretable. This analysis has helped to figure out essential parameters responsible for better EQE efficiency. Even the learning curve is still ascending, proving that the model can improve its prediction if more training examples are provided in the future. All the computations can be done using easily accessible cloud computations.
Characterizing the Behavior of Bitumen-Water Systems with the Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Difference (HLD) Framework
Authors: Ghayour Amir , Perez Franco Rafael , Bhattacharya Sujit , Acosta Edgar
Published: July 2022

Emulsions of water in bitumen, even in solvent-diluted bitumen, are notorious for their stability. Such stability affects the removal of water in the Froth Treatment Process prior to upgrading of bitumen extracted from mining operations. The literature presents various examples of the use of the Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Difference (HLD) framework to formulate demulsifiers for conventional crude oils, reducing the emulsion stability from hours to minutes when HLD=0 (phase inversion point). To apply this approach to bitumen emulsions, the HLD of these systems needs to be assessed. A previous attempt to obtain the HLD of bitumen emulsions was incomplete because the suspected surfactant-like and oil-like behavior of polar oils in bitumen, particularly asphaltenes and naphthenic acids (NAs), could not be resolved. This question was revisited using a newly established framework for the HLD of polar oils. To this end, microemulsion phase behavior studies were conducted involving mixtures of ionic and nonionic surfactants with asphaltenes, diluted bitumen, and deasphalted bitumen (maltenes), which led to the realization that asphaltenes do not play a role in HLD when other surfactants are present in the system. Instead, NAs and their dissociation into naphthenates dominate the phase behavior of bitumen emulsions. It was determined that a gradual change in the degree of dissociation of NAs, induced by sodium hydroxide addition, could substantially change the HLD of the system and the accompanying changes in interfacial tension, emulsion stability, and residual water content in the oil phase.
Structure of POPC lipid bilayers in OPLS3e force field
Authors: Kurki Milla , Poso Antti , Bartos Piia , Miettinen Markus S.
Published: July 2022

It is crucial for molecular dynamics simulations of biomembranes that the force field parameters give a realistic model of the membrane behavior. In this study, we examined the OPLS3e force field for the carbon–hydrogen order parameters SCH of POPC (1-palmitoyl-2- oleoylphosphatidylcholine) lipid bilayers at varying hydration conditions and ion concentrations. The results show that OPLS3e behaves similarly to the CHARMM36 force field and relatively accurately follows the experimentally measured SCH for the lipid headgroup, the glycerol backbone, and the acyl tails. Thus, OPLS3e is a good choice for POPC bilayer simulations under many biologically relevant conditions. The exception are systems with an abundancy of ions, as similarly to most other force fields OPLS3e strongly overestimates the membrane-binding of cations, especially Ca2+. This leads to undesirable positive charge of the membrane surface and drastically lowers the concentration of Ca2+ in the surrounding solvent, which might cause issues in systems sensitive to correct charge distribution profiles across the membrane.

We introduce the Python package rxnutils that can be used to manipulate chemical reactions, reaction templates and reaction datasets. The package is built entirely on open-source software such as RDKit and is designed with robustness, extendibility, and reproducibility in mind. Currently, it consists of three sub-packages one for working with chemical entities, one provides pipelining capabilities, and one provides an end-to-end pipeline for preparing the US patent reaction dataset for modelling. In this software research note we discuss the design of the package and provide some code examples. The project is open-source with a Apache 2.0 license and available at GitHub: https://github.com/MolecularAI/rxnutils
