Authors: Targba Aondowase , Osuji Celestina
Published: March 2023

The object of the research is anchored on the introduction of the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) by the Federal Government of Nigeria and the opposition by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the implication of the dispute on the development of university education in Nigeria. The main objectives of the study were to determine the major motives and examine the suitability of IPPIS for the development of university education in Nigeria. The paper employs the equity theory of motivation to explain how Nigeria's payment system affects effective service delivery in the entire university education system. The study was based on secondary sources from existing literature. The findings of the paper show IPPIS was primarily introduced by the federal government to curb corruption in the university system. The paper also revealed that IPPIS does not capture the peculiarities of university lecturers. The study concluded that IPPIS will contribute to the development of university education in Nigeria if it can accommodate the peculiarities of academic staff.
The paper recommended that the Federal Government of Nigeria and Academic Staff Union of Universities engage in dialogue to harmonize the payment system for the overall interest of university education in Nigeria. And the Federal Government of Nigeria should show some level of sincerity in the testing of UTAS (University Transparency and Accountability Solution), the alternative payment platform provided by ASUU to build confidence among disputing members. This will also encourage the development of local content.
Development of a kinetic model of magnetite leaching
Authors: Kontsevoy Andriy
Published: March 2023

The object of the research is the process of magnetite leaching with nitric acid solutions, and the subject of the research is the mathematical justification of the kinetic model and the calculation of kinetic parameters.
The article considers the case of leaching in the kinetic region, while magnetite is considered as a polydispersity material of spherical shape. It is proposed to use the distribution function of the number of particles N by their radius r in the form N=a∙rb, where a and b are constants. This distribution was used to derive the equation for the rate of the process W, taking into account the change in the surface of the particles depending on the degree of leaching α: W=dα/dτ=K*∙(1–α)m∙((С0(γ–α)/γ))n, where K* is the rate constant; m and n are the order of solid material and nitric acid, respectively; C0 and γ are the initial concentration of nitric acid and its stoichiometric excess. The order m is defined as m=(b+2)/(b+3), at b→∞ the order m→1. When b=0, m=2/3 is the case of the equation for a shrinking sphere. An algorithm for calculating kinetic parameters in the Excel is proposed. Experimental dependences of the degree of transformation α on time τ are approximated by a third-order equation; by differentiating the obtained equation, the values of the velocity Wexp=dα/dτ at individual points are calculated. After the logarithm of the above equation, there is the expression (γ=1): ln(Wexp)=ln(K*)+m∙ln(1–α)+n∙ln(С0(1–α)).
With the help of the «LINEST» function in Excel, for a temperature of 373 K, the values of the order of m=0.93 and n=1.29 and the rate constant K*=0.08 were obtained. Calculation of kinetic parameters for different temperatures takes into account the dependence of the rate constant on temperature: ln(Wexp)=lnk0–E/R∙1/T+m∙ln(1–α)+n∙ln(C0(1–α)).
As a result of the calculations, the values n=0.83; m=1.2; E/R=–10402; lnk0=25.09 were obtained. The value of the multiplier k0=exp(lnk0)=7.88∙1010, the activation energy E=–8.31∙E/R=86440 J/mol, the total reaction order n+m=2.03 was calculated. The obtained kinetic parameters were used to determine the calculated values of the rate W. The average relative error between the experimental and calculated values of the leaching rates is 10 %. The proposed method of processing experimental data using a mathematical leaching model can be used for any leaching process.

Authors: Dalei Narendra N. , Joshi Jignesh M.
Published: March 2023

One of the most promising areas for future infrastructure investment is in the modification of the world's energy mix. Rising renewable energy penetration in the world's electrical supply and energy markets is a topic of intense attention for those concerned with environmental sustainability. Given that the Asia-Pacific region is home to more than half of the world's population and accounts for more than 60 percent of global energy consumption, as well as having strong economic-growth prospects, the world's fastest rising regional energy demand, and vast potential owing to the low market saturation of renewables, accelerating the deployment of renewable energy is of critical importance in the Asia-Pacific region. More than half of the world's emissions come from Asia and the Pacific, making this region a major contributor to climate change. There are many obvious benefits, but the market is still not very well explored. This is because numerous significant problems still exist in the region, including a lack of funding, concerns about system reliability and the changing role of utilities, emissions of greenhouse gases, and the effects of climate change. New possibilities, especially for solar energy, have emerged as a result of the declining cost of renewable energy and associated technological breakthroughs. There are many obstacles to overcome on the way to this goal because of the dynamic character of economies in the Asia-Pacific region. The renewables market in the Asia-Pacific region might use some improvements, such as a more robust regulatory framework and a more alluring return on investment. This study primarily reflected the current status about renewable energy and highlighted the challenges and opportunities facing the renewable market in the Asia-Pacific region in an effort to solve these concerns. The study also offered policy implications to help deal with or lessen the effects of these obstacles in the quest to expand the renewable energy market. This study will help countries, businesses, and investors in the Asia-Pacific region to adopt policies for investment in renewable energy sector as they work towards zero-carbon targets.

Published: March 2023

The object of research is the processes of automatic optimal passing of one's own ship with many dangerous targets, including maneuvering ones, by the method of constructing the area of permissible passing parameters in the on-board computer. According to the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA), the largest number of ship accidents in 2014–2019 occurred due to collision (32 %). On modern ships, for observation and passing with targets, ARPA (automatic radar plotting aid) is used, which allows to automate manual operations, and the built-in function «Playing the maneuver» provides the navigator with a convenient graphic interface for solving passing problems. At the same time, ARPA is an automated system that assumes the presence of an operator in the control circuit. The presence of a person in the control circuit is related to the «human factor», which is a prerequisite for the occurrence of various types of accidents, including ship collisions. The most effective means of reducing the influence of the «human factor» on control processes is the introduction of automatic control modules in automated systems. The paper develops a method for the passing module, which allows automatic and optimal passing with many targets, including maneuvering ones. The number of targets for passing is not limited by the method, but is limited only by the capabilities of the ARPA to track the targets. The obtained results are explained by the fact that at each step of the on-board computer, a region of permissible passing parameters is constructed for all purposes, passing parameters that optimize a given optimality criterion are selected from the constructed region, the selected parameters are used as software in the control law. The developed method can be used on ships, subject to integration into the existing automated system of an on-board computer with an open architecture, to increase the capabilities of automatic traffic control, in this case, the possibility of automatic optimal passing with many objectives, including maneuvering.

Authors: Moussaoui Sabah , Rebadj Chabane , Belgasmia Mourad , Tee Kong Fah
Published: March 2023

The object of this study is a refining mesh effect on discontinuous structures response.
This paper presents a study of mesh influence between cracked and non-cracked plates using extended finite element and standard finite element method, respectively. For the first case, the plate is stressed on one side, in which cracked zone displacements are given for different mesh refinements. The second case study is bending orthotropic and isotropic plates under uniform rectangular impulsive load, in which mesh influence on the structural response is presented. The numerical modelization is done using an isoperimetric quadrilateral element. On one hand, the stiffness linear matrix of a cracked plate is evaluated numerically by adding an enriched shape function to the standard shape function to be able to model discontinuity numerically. On the other hand, for the case of the non-cracked plate, the use of the finite element method with standard shape function is well suited to the numerical design of stiffness and mass matrix.
The essence of this study is to show the mesh effect on cracked and non-craked plate response, which is a first step that allows to go even further on monoitoring of our crack evolution.It is a very useful field as any structure in our daily life is subject to a discontinuity (crack) which we must be able to control in order to evoid a future structure collapse.
Application of processes stimulated by nonequilibrium plasma for large-tonnage decontamination of soils
Authors: Petrov Stanislav , Bondarenko Serhii , Homma Masato
Published: March 2023

The object of research is a new, potentially effective and practical process for the decontamination of radioactive soil, based on combination of plasma hydroseparation and plasma activation. The cleaning effect is ensured by the destruction of the bonds of radionuclides with soil particles due to a series of electrophysical discharges at which active particles and shock waves appear. In a designed setup, the process of plasma-chemical treatment is implemented in a plasma cell with a self-sustaining pulsating mode of burning an electric discharge, which occurs in an aqueous solution. The setup realizes a resonant increase in the intensity of shock waves, turbulence and multiple expansion of the core, such that the expansion of the plasma-liquid interface becomes a real basis for scaling up the setup. Regardless of the material of the electrodes and in a wide range of electrical conductivity (measured from 100 to 5,000 μS/cm), the restructuring of the combustion regime is accompanied by an increase in the size and stabilization of the luminous zone, fragmentation of bubbles, and an increase in the rate of their evacuation from the discharge zone. The main factors of such a restructuring are the channel dimensions and temperature of the solution. Various materials of the walls of plasma-chemical reactor have been tested: plexiglass, ceramics and stainless steel with the thickness of 2 mm. The maximum increase in the amplitude of resonance oscillations depends on the cell radius. A dynamic pressure, which in an individual discharge is about 5–15 mm of the water column at the mouth of the discharge, increases to 150–200 mm of the water column at the bottom of the plasma cell at resonance. An increase in efficiency is achieved by an optimal choice of the duration of the current phase and the distance between the electrodes, which is 15–30 mm. The voltage drop is 70–80 % across the spark discharge, the rest falls across the solution. The transition of the discharge to a periodic pulsating current mode with an increase in the temperature of the solution has been found. Tests on a mobile plasma-chemical facility for the process of plasma co-precipitation of radionuclides 137Cs, 134Cs and 90Sr with ferrocyanide sorbents under real conditions of hydroseparation of contaminated soil from fields around the Fukushima Daiichi have shown a decrease in organic substances in water by 40 times, and of radioactivity by 75 times.
Development of a microwave resonant waveguide slot antenna with in-phase slot excitation
Authors: Semenov Andriy , Semenova Olena , Kryvinska Natalia , Krystoforov Andrii , Kurovskyi Pavlo , Kaplychnyi Oleh
Published: March 2023

The object of research in the work is the process of radiation of electromagnetic waves of a resonant waveguide-slot antenna with in-phase excitation of slots. The subject of research is the wave parameters and directional properties of a resonant slotted waveguide antenna with in-phase slot excitation. The existing problem is that it is necessary to ensure highly directional properties of the antenna with electrical control of its wave parameters at high transmitter power. This problem is due to the fact that to solve the problem of developing equipment for radio control, and radar of aircraft, highly directional antennas of small sizes are required. To solve this problem, the paper proposes the design of a simple and cheap version of a microwave resonant waveguide-slot antenna with in-phase slot excitation.

As a basis for developing a resonant slotted waveguide antenna, the authors chose a standard R48 rectangular waveguide, which is a classic in the theory of directional systems in the microwave range. This is due to the fact that in order to calculate and study a microwave resonant waveguide-slot antenna with in-phase excitation of slots, the authors used well-known elements of the theory of aperture antennas. The design of a resonant slotted waveguide antenna consists of a rectangular waveguide, an exciter, and a feeder. The radiation surface of the antenna is a wide wall of a standard R48 rectangular waveguide along the central axis, of which slots are symmetrically cut in a checkerboard pattern. The exciter is made in the form of a metal pin inside a rectangular waveguide near the short-circuited wall. This pin acts as an asymmetric vertical vibrator that excites electromagnetic waves in a rectangular waveguide. The antenna is tuned to the maximum radiation power mechanically by moving the short-circuited wall of the rectangular waveguide. The pin feeds a feeder based on a coaxial cable with a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms.

The developed resonant waveguide-slot antenna with in-phase excitation of slots operates in the frequency range of 4.0–6.0 GHz. In the frequency range of 4.0–5.45 GHz, the value of Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) varies from 1.08 to 2.1. In the frequency range of 5.45–6.0 GHz, the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) value varies from 2.1 to 6.55. The directivity of the antenna in the operating frequency range is not less than 90. The width of the main lobe of the antenna pattern in the horizontal plane is not more than 3.1°. The antenna gain in the operating frequency band is at least 100. The efficiency is at least 90 % with a maximum generator signal power of 10 kW.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: This paper deals with the renovation process of the President’s Palace in Kazakhstan. Diversity is one of our main features expressing the nationwide experience along with its successes and failures. The spatial quality of some public spaces provided them permanence and "sustainability". The aesthetic values of architectural and urban spaces are often determinant factors for urban environmental quality. In fact, our research strategy combines the study of spatial practice and usage with the analysis of design quality. The rejuvenation of urban spaces is a promising experience contributing socially, economically, and physically to regenerating the local urban environment and leisure activity. Sustainable urban development provides city designers with criteria of social and ecological rationality that are different from those available in the market. Consequently, the concept of sustainability becomes the keystone of the urban development process. Materials and Methods: This paper puts forward a question about the global features of a public park and continues the discussion on keeping a balance between local architecture and the global ‘public park making’ trend the method employed is qualitative interviews, observations, and walking tours with public space users. An amount of data is collected for environmental assessment. Results and Discussion: The renovated park shows the new way public space is oriented. In President's Palace, a new logic of urban publicity was assembled and built into the landscape. we analyzed the social and technical means. New public spaces of this sort promulgate a conception of the public that not only combine with discourses of democratization, citizenship, and self–development and is connected ever more firmly to consumption and commercial. Conclusions: We also do research on the global features of a public park and discuss keeping a balance between local architecture and the global public park-making trend, as well as public facilities and profit, and the role of nature as a universal remedy and tool in reshaping the image of cities.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: Nowadays, the concept of “safe city” has become one of the topical issues of scientific research in many areas of human activity. Besides architects, designers, and builders, IT specialists are actively involved in creating a safe urban environment. A safe city very often involves the construction of a complex distribution system, which is capable of integrating heterogeneous elements of the urban environment, such as residential utilities, highways, strategic facilities, into a single managed structure. In the architectural and design activities, methods of designing the safe environment are well known, which facilitate the creation of open spaces, the creation of comfortable redevelopment of urban voids, etc. Thus, it can be argued that many existing problems of urban environmental safety are being successfully addressed. Nevertheless, the current trend of urbanization and the consequent increase in the population of agglomerations, the construction of high-rise buildings, the development of infrastructure, the formation of new areas and entire cities lead to other problems with urban safety or require the review of existing methods. In this regard, it is of great interest to identify categories of topical problems and methods of the study and the implementation of the principles of urban environmental safety. This study is aimed to identify the safety categories, methods of their realization, and the effectiveness of the methodological features of scientific research on a safe urban environment. Materials and Methods: The research method is based on the study of scientific articles in the post-pandemic period. Results and Discussion: The result of the study is the systematization of typological features of scientific research methods and obtained results in the organization of a safe urban environment. Conclusions: These results could form the basis for an action plan aimed at creating a safe urban environment for all categories of people. Such measures should be developed at the regional level to assess the territory’s security.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: This article presents material that reflects one of the constituent stages of the educational process, taking into account the principles of environmentally friendly and regional design, as an actual direction of innovative design practice. Materials and Methods: On the example of the works of students of the specialty industrial design, the options for solving problems based on the indicated principles are presented. In the modern educational process, which must take into account various factors, the concept of regional eco-design is becoming more and more popular. Results and Discussion: A future bachelor studying in the specialty “Industrial Design” must understand that the designed product must not only have aesthetics, but also bring real benefits to society, meeting modern environmental requirements. The design tasks of sustainable design should include creating a comfortable visual environment and microclimate, using natural materials with the possibility of their subsequent processing. Thus, the design and production of life support products, which allow, at a minimum cost of resources and energy, indirectly supports the development of earthly civilization in a safe way, preserving its natural resources. The state policy of the Republic of Kazakhstan supports the development of education in the field of industry and is interested in “bringing up a new generation of industrial engineers”. IEC (KazGASA Campus) graduates industrial specialists who are able to integrate into modern space, have mobility skills, but at the same time bear the identification of the national culture, which is rich in its experience and traditions. At present, the general cultural space in Kazakhstan is, in fact, a large field and platform for disclosure and careful immersion in the rethinking of heritage, which we need to study from new modern positions. Conclusions: The historical analysis of traditions and way of life is currently perceived as a kind of symbolic cultural code, as a new look at the nomadic model of the life order of our ancestors.

Introduction: In 1991, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the history of Soviet art should be rewritten. Analysis and historical narration should be carried out by the cultural field of the country, in accordance with the real process – this is the persistent study of the academic circles of Central Asia over the past 30 years of independence. One of the important issues is to find the source of contemporary art in Central Asia and reshape the history of contemporary art in Central Asia. Materials and Methods: The authors outlined the general context of the history of art in Central Asia in the article. In addition, it was considered as part of the history of the art development of the Silk Road, which itself violated the boundaries of the regionalization of cultural identity, as well as necessary to change the knowledge of the history of contemporary art in Central Asia from the “Eurocentric approach” to correspond to historical fact. Results and Discussion: Central Asia has ethnic groups living across borders and has a long history of exchanges along the ancient Silk Road and cultural factors shaped by two-way feedback. Conclusions: The study of the history of contemporary art in Central Asia is of strategic importance with a global historical perspective.

Given the increasing importance of boron (B) toxicity, the present study investigates the roles of glutathione (20 mM, GSH) and proline (20 mM) in the improvement of wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Altındane) resistance to B toxicity (10 mM B). The plants were raised in hydroponic culture with control, B toxicity, B+glutathione, B+proline, glutathione and proline. B+glutathione and B+proline resisted the detrimental influences of B toxicity on the root and shoot lengths, the total chlorophyll, and phenolic contents. B toxicity increased superoxide radicals (O2.-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), lipid peroxidation (MDA), and proline contents while B+glutathione and B+proline applications diminished the mentioned parameters with the exception of the proline content. Individual B toxicity and combined B+glutathione and B+proline applications increased generally total ascorbic acid and glutathione levels in the wheat while the B+proline application decreased GSH content. The B toxicity decreased superoxide dismutase, catalase and guaiacol peroxidase activities in compared with control with the exception of the ascorbate peroxidase activity. Exogenous glutathione and proline augmented all enzyme activities in the wheat exposed to B toxicity. As a result, it can be suggested that glutathione and proline mitigates B toxicity; by preventing oxidative damage in the membrane, by increasing enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant and by decreasing O2.-, H2O2, and MDA contents. Glutathione is generally more effective than proline in mitigating the above detrimental effects of B toxicity. The datum submitted in the current work are significant and the first to indicate that effects of exogenous glutathione and proline in improving a culture plant strength to B toxicity.
Major Strategies for Spatial Control of Ultrasound-Driven Gene Expression to Enhance Therapeutic Specificity

A major challenge of gene therapy is to achieve highly specific transgene expression in tissues of interest with minimized off-target expression. Ultrasound in combination with microbubbles can transiently increase permeability of desired cells or tissues and thereby facilitate gene transfer. This kind of ultrasound-driven transgene expression has gained increasing attention due to its deep tissue penetration and high spatiotemporal resolution. However, successful genetic manipulation in vivo with ultrasound need to well optimize various aspects involved in this process. Ultrasound parameters, microbubble dose, and gene vectors need to be optimized for highly increased transgene expression in the cells of interest. Conversely, the potential off-target transgene expression and toxicities need to be reduced by modification of gene vectors and/or promoter sequence. This review will discuss some major strategies for enhanced specificity of the ultrasound-mediated gene transfer in vivo. Five major strategies will be discussed, including the integration of real-time imaging methods, local injection, targeted microbubbles loaded with nucleic acids, stealth nanocarriers, and cell-specific promoter. The advantages and limitations of each strategy were outlined, hoping to provide a guideline for researchers in achieving high specific ultrasound-driven gene expression.
Two ways to agree in D[N1&N2] constructions – Romance left-conjunct agreement and Germanic morphologically resolved agreement
Authors: Lamoure Nicolas Mathieu
Published: March 2023

Hitherto unnoticed, Romance and Germanic differ with respect to the observable agreement patterns in D[N1&N2] constructions (e.g., this philosopher and linguist): While Romance (Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese) exhibits left conjunct agreement, Germanic (German, Dutch and English) exhibits (morphologically) resolved agreement. In this article, I present an analysis that will derive this difference from one parametrized property: Germanic Num° has both gender and number, while Romance Num° lacks gender. The analysis will be couched in a multiple agree framework, where triggering is reduced to interface conditions: The outcome of (multiple) agree must be semantically and phonologically interpretable.
