A type of insect that causes a decline in coconut production is the uret pest of coconut (Oryctes rhinoceros L.). The vegetable pesticide of the majapahit fruit is one of several techniques for controlling pests. This study was carried out from April to July 2022 at the Plant Protection Laboratory of the Department of Agricultural Production, Jember Country Polytechnic. The goal of this investigation was to determine the impact of the majapahit vegetable pesticide on the death of the uret pest of coconut plants. This study employed a non-factorial randomized block design (RBD) with four treatments and six replications, namely control, 50%, 60%, and 70% majapahit fruit extract.. The experimental data were examined using ANOVA; if the findings indicated a significant influence, a 5% stage LSD similarly check was carried out, along with the determination of LT50 using probit analysis. Mortality, physical changes, and LT50 are the key factors. The results showed that the majapahit fruit's natural insecticides had a significant impact on the death of the coconut plant's ureth pest, with the LT50 value at a concentration of 70% majapahit fruit extract reaching its lowest point in 178 hours.

Hypersonic International Flight Research Experimentation Flight 2 Unstart Reliability Analysis
Authors: West Thomas K. , Bynum Michael D.
Published: October 2023

The objective of this work was to assess the unstart reliability of the Hypersonic International Flight Research Experimentation Flight 2 system. To do this, a quantification of margins and uncertainties framework was used for comparing the predicted combustion-induced shock location to the predicted last stable shock location within the isolator. Uncertainty sources included parametric uncertainty in the flight conditions, the heat release model, and turbulence modeling, as well as model verification errors. Additionally, an estimate of the model-form uncertainty was established by comparing the model to measured ground-test data. A computationally efficient nonintrusive polynomial chaos approach was used to propagate parametric uncertainty through the computational fluids dynamics models of both the ground-test configuration and the flight vehicle. Compared to direct-connect ground-test data, computational fluid dynamics predictions yielded about two duct heights of model-form uncertainty. This was applied to a prediction of the flight vehicle unstart margin at the Mach 6.5 flight condition. Building up all of the computational model uncertainty (including parametric uncertainty, verification errors, and the determined model-form uncertainty), the 95%-probability-level-based confidence ratio, which is a ratio of a statistical margin measure to the total uncertainty, was found to be 0.31 for the flight system.
Koopman-Operator Control Optimization for Relative Motion in Space
Authors: Servadio Simone , Armellin Roberto , Linares Richard
Published: October 2023

A high-order optimal control strategy implemented in the Koopman operator framework is proposed in this work. The new technique exploits the Koopman representation of the solution of the equations of motion to develop an energy-optimal inverse control methodology. The operator theory can reformulate a nonlinear dynamic system of finite dimension into a linear system with an infinite number of dimensions. As a result, the state of any nonlinear dynamics is represented as a linear combination of high-order orthogonal polynomials, which creates the state transition polynomial map of the solution. Because the optimal control technique can be reduced to a two-point boundary value problem, the Koopman map is used to connect the state and control variables in time, such that optimal values are obtained through map inversion and polynomial evaluation. The new technique is applied to rendezvous applications in space, where the relative motion between two satellites is modeled with a high-order polynomial series expansion of the Lagrangian of the system, such that the Clohessy–Wiltshire equations represent the reduction of the high-order model to a linear truncation. The proposed numerical applications are analyzed to show the robustness and limitations of the novel technique.

Diversity of nematodes associated with Heterodermia diademata: A case study in the Eco Área of Avellaneda, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Authors: Rusconi José M. , García Renato , Salas Augusto , Achinelly M. Fernanda
Published: October 2023

Lichens represent a complex life form characterized by a symbiotic partnership between at least two organisms: a fungus and an alga. In this unique relationship, the fungus offers a protective habitat for the alga, which, in turn, harnesses energy from sunshine, water and air to provide sustenance for the fungus. They fulfill ecological roles as a food source for many invertebrates and serve as the basal trophic level for a variety of animals, being considered micro-ecosystems which can host a rich and diverse biota. Nematodes are among the most widespread and abundant of all metazoans, inhabit moist interstitial environments in all habitats and are abundant in marine and freshwater benthic habitats and in the soil. They were also reported from accumulations of detritus in leaf axils, in the angles of tree branches and in mosses and lichens. In this case study, the trophic role and diversity of free-living nematodes associated with lichens were examined in an area of Buenos Aires province, Argentina, revealing seven genera of nematodes linked to Heterodermia diademata, representing all trophic levels of free-living nematodes: bacteriophages (Plectus and Acrobeles), fungivores (Aphelenchus), herbivores (Helicotylenchus), omnivores (Eudorylaimus and Mesodorylaimus) and a predator (Prionchulus).

Published: October 2023

The biomass utilization without purification and fractionation through a non-selective manner is the best option for high conversion efficiency. Leftover and abundant plant biomass can be a source of preservatives if they keep antimicrobial activity against spoilage microorganisms. Traditionally, 50% w/w sodium chloride (NaCl) is employed for hides and skin preservation (curing). However, enormous water pollution, aquatic toxicity, soil infertility, and high chemical consumption make it questionable. This study investigates biomass-based curing (BBC) agents from Cynodon dactylon grass and Alzibia lebbeck leaves. The plant’s dry powder was directly applied over goatskin and evaluated curing efficiencies. The BBC formulations were user-friendly, highly biomass conversion efficiency (41-53% of raw wt.) and antimicrobial activity (against E. coli: 17-18 mm and B. subtilis: 15-17 mm), and preserved goatskin for 30 days like NaCl. It reduced the salinity and total dissolved solids (TDS) load from tannery-soaking effluent by 67-74% and 41-65%, respectively. The environmental efficiency index (EEI) revealed that BBC systems (EEI: 29.9-31.3) are around 1.5 times more environmentally sustainable than conventional curing (EEI: 20.7). Besides, the alternatives have no effect on the features of final leather. In conclusion, the ecofriendly BBC agents have the potential to minimize the heavy pollution of salt curing.

Published: October 2023

In this contribution, we report the hydrogenation enthalpy direct measurement of well-studied Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers (LOHC) (Dibenzyltoluene, N-Ethylcarbazole, 2-Octanone) and of a new LOHC (Acetophenone) by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under H2 pressure. The obtained hydrogenation enthalpies showed good correspondence with DFT predictions and the literature. Moreover, multistep hydrogenation processes were investigated, evidencing that transfer hydrogenation occurred during the reaction. The study of bifunctional LOHC such as acetophenone and its derivatives showcased the potential of direct enthalpy measurement for rapid LOHC screening. Besides, a DFT correction factor for this specific bifunctional LOHC class was experimentally obtained, enabling more precise DFT predictions for similar systems. Kinetic parameters such as the activation energies for the catalytic Ru/Al2O3 system were also determined to be in the 45-60 kJ/mol range, compatible with the H2 adsorption on the Ru surface. The detrimental effect of steric hinderance was also observed. Finally, the reaction order in H2 was experimentally estimated to ~1 for all of the studied LOHCs.

Zhovtnevyi granite quarry: history of formation and development prospects
Authors: Koptieva Tetiana
Published: October 2023

Today, Kryvyi Rih is the most powerful industrial center not only in Ukraine, but also in Europe. Every year, the

extraction of iron ore from the subsoil increases, while turning natural landscapes into anthropogenic ones. The mining industry has created landscapes on the territory of Kryvyi Rih that are not typical for it at all. The so-called «technogenic lowlands», which are dumps, and «technogenic depressions», which are quarries, were formed from the plains, which are the main part of the relief of Kryvyi Rih. Therefore, today there is an urgent issue of using spent (post-mining) geosystems, for example, Zhovtnevyi granite quarry in recreational and tourist activities.

The aim of the article is to study the history of the formation and prospects of the Zhovtnevyi granite quarry.

Main material. The research highlighted the active action of anthropogenic activity on the territory of Kryvyi Rih causing emergence of mining landscapes. This allowed the formation of quarry and dump and mine types of landscape complexes. During 1950-1990, mining operations were carried out on the territory of Zhovtnevyi granite deposit and, thus, it contributed to the formation of the quarry. It was found that mining completion in Zhovtnevyi quarry has led to its flooding. Geological and geomorphological, hydrological, climatic, soil and biotic processes that directly affect the development of the quarry have been studied. Zhovtnevyi granite quarry has quite favorable natural conditions and landscape structure for the development of recreational and tourist activities. Therefore, there is a need to identify new approaches to the optimization and further rational use of Zhovtnevyi granite quarry.

Conclusions and further research. The study analyzes the history of formation and prospects of Zhovtnevyi granite quarry, the main landscape factors that contribute to its development, using mapping web services such as Google Maps and Google Earth maps, showing the characteristic of territorial location and landscape structure of the quarry. The authors have identified the need to involve reclamation and revitalization as the main optimization measures to improve the lands of Zhovtnevyi granite quarry and to engage it in recreational and tourist activities.
Traditional and new in the content and technique of ukrainian regional nosogeographic mapping
Authors: Kornus Anatolii , Kornus Olesia , Konovalov Mykyta , Danylchenko Olena , Korol Olena
Published: October 2023

The aim of the article is to outline the traditional classification of nosogeographic maps and suggest additions to it. These additions are formulated, taking into account the changes that have occurred in the classification of nosologies, the source base and technical capabilities of mapping, as well as in the organization of the system of medical care for the population.

Main material. The authors have analysed peculiarities of the content and specifics of making nosogeographic maps. They have established the fact that computerization of the health care facilities, including primary medicine ones, makes it possible to carry out very detailed types of nosogeographic mapping, taking into account more advanced methods of medical and statistical data processing, which are a source of information in compiling such maps. It becomes possible to draw new nosogeographic maps by using individual address accounting data with flexible selection of territorial units over which averaging is carried out. Thus, we can obtain characteristics not only for administrative units, but also for individual houses, their groups, micro-districts (communities), etc.

Conclusions and further research. The cartographic method has extremely wide possibilities in the implementation of nosogeographic analysis, since each group of diseases has its own chorological and chronological specificity. Its use allows us to predict the existence of specific factors (indicators of the environmental situation, level of medical care, sociodemographic indicators, etc.) that determine the morbidity rate. Cartographic models can be used in strategies for socioeconomic development of regions, special events, aimed at reducing the level of certain types of diseases, rational territorial organization of medical care system for the population. The authors believe that the classification of nosogeographic maps, and, accordingly, the structure of nosogeographic mapping, as well as the topic of cartographic plots, should be supplemented by the following three varieties. Firstly, these are demographic and nosogeographic maps. They convey differences in the morbidity of people according to demographic and sociodemographic indicators of the population. These maps analyze gender, age, nationality, other factors of population susceptibility to certain types of diseases. Secondly, there are physiological-nosogeographic maps, which, in addition to the morbidity of the inhabitants of a country or region, transmit certain indicators of physical development and health of certain population groups. Thirdly, nosogeographic maps should also include maps of road traffic accidents.
Address of implicatures in dramatic discourse
Authors: Bezugla Lilia , Novikova Olena
Published: October 2023

The article analyses utterances with implicatures in the character speech in German dramatic discourse based on the play “The Money is in the Bank” by German dramatist Curth Flatow, which presents the situational type of dramatic dialogue and imitation of colloquial speech. Address of implicatures is the direction of the speaker's perlocutionary goal to convey the implicature to the addressee, depending on the level of communication. The speaker's orientation to the addressee in intending implicatures correlates with two levels of communication in dramatic discourse outside of its stage implementation: horizontal (communication of characters) and vertical (communication between the author and the reader). Depending on the communicative attitude of the speaker and the level of communication, the address of implicatures demonstrates five types. The first two types relate to horizontal communication, the third to vertical, the fourth and fifth suggest double intending of the implicature at two levels. The first type of address is the most frequent: in his or her utterance, character 1 (the speaker) conveys the implicature to the addressee / group of addressees (character 2 / characters 1, 2, 3 ...). The second type of address concerns indirect verbal communication at the level of horizontal communication: in his or her utterance, character 1 (the speaker) conveys the implicature not to the direct addressee (character 2), but to the indirect (character 3). The third type of address involves only vertical communication: the author conveys the implicature to the reader in the utterance of character 1, directed at character 2; there may be several target characters. In the case of the fourth type of addressing, a double intending of implicature occurs: character 1 (the speaker) conveys the implicature to character 2 (addressee) in his or her utterance, and at the same time the author conveys the implicature to the reader in the same utterance. The fifth type of address is also a double intending of the implicature, but with the involvement of the indirect addressee: in his or her utterance, character 1 (the speaker) conveys the implicature not to the direct addressee (character 2), but to the indirect (character 3), and at the same time the author conveys the implicature to the reader in the same utterance.
Aspects of language culture formation as a component of professional culture of future specialists
Authors: Gnatenko Kateryna
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the problem of formation of language competence as an integral part of the language culture of future physical education teachers and trainers on the way to the formation of their professional culture during the educational process in the higher educational establishment. The author states the globalization of the approach to the use of educational opportunities, namely the improvement of professional culture, reveals the meaning of the concepts “language competence,” “language culture,” “professional culture” and “professional culture of a physical education teacher.” The article analyzes the latest research on the content of these concepts. The close connection of these concepts, their influence on each other and interaction with the concept of “the role of a physical education teacher” are analyzed. The conditionality of these components by the culturological model of the content of education is considered. Given the data of recent studies, it is concluded that the problem can be solved within a comprehensive approach to the formation of rhetorical competence. A questionnaire was conducted to identify the estimated level of language culture formation by students of higher education. It was found that issues related to the ability to speak publicly and understand the causes of communication barriers, the ability to persuade, admitting their mistakes and accepting a different point of view were assessed by students with low scores during the questionnaire. This is evidence of students' feeling of a low level of language culture, which will have a negative impact on the formation of professional culture of future sports professionals. It is concluded that awareness of this problem should lead to a rethinking of methods of forming language competence during the educational process in higher education institutions.
Sensitising students to the existence of sociocultural peculiarities of expressing politeness in the foreign language lessons
Authors: Holub Ivanna
Published: October 2023

The paper considers possibilities of sensitising students to sociocultural peculiarities of expressing politeness in the foreign language lessons. According to the theory proposed by Penelope Brown and Stephen C. Levinson, politeness is based on the key human needs to maintain personal dignity and protect personal space. This allows us to talk about politeness as a universal category. However, universal ways of expressing politeness that are applicable to different cultures do not exist. In fact, comparative research shows that each culture has a specific set of verbal and nonverbal tools for expressing politeness. The results of this research proves that the category should be discussed in the foreign language lessons in the institutions of higher education. It is crucial that students understand that politeness is a complex system of nationally specific strategies that are aimed at harmonious communication without any conflicts. Therefore we have to draw students’ attention not only to grammatical means for expressing politeness in the native and foreign languages, but to demonstrate influence of linguocultural and sociocultural factors on realization of politeness during the cross-cultural communication. Furthermore, we have to show how differences in interpretation of means for expressing politeness by representatives of different cultures cause misunderstandings in communication. Tools for sensitising students to manifests of politeness categories in the cross-cultural communication are formulated. These tools are incorporated in corresponding exercises. The aim of the suggested exercises is not to introduce politeness rules of the cultures of the foreign languages that are learned by students, because these rules do not exist. The goal of these exercises is to sharpen students’ sensibility to the influence of sociocultural and linguocultural factors on expressing politeness in cross-cultural communication. The mere awareness of the fact that there constantly exists the possibility of occurrence of misunderstandings in cross-cultural communication which are related to differences in the interpretation of the models of polite behaviour in different cultures guarantees successful resolution of such situations by students in the future.

Published: October 2023

Atmospheric water generator (AWG) is a device for producing water from humid air. The water is produced by cooling the air until below its dew point temperature. This study presents the optimization of a simple thermoelectric AWG device (S-TEAWG) for emergency purposes. The designed S-TEAWG consists of a thermoelectric module and condensation plate as a cooler and condensation surface, respectively. The plate is attached to the cold side of the thermoelectric module to enhance the contact surface area with the ambient air. The thermoelectric module with the dimension of 4 cm × 4 cm is operated at 12 V of voltage and 50 oC of hot side temperature. The device is installed vertically thus the condensates flow down naturally due to gravity. Various surface areas of vertical plates, from 0.01 m2 to 0.09 m2, are evaluated theoretically to obtain the maximum water production. The results show that the lower temperature of the vertical plate is achieved at a smaller surface area. However, the optimum surface area is obtained at 0.03 m2 with 60.9 ml/d of water production.

Scientific interest in low-molecular-weight pectins is not accidental. Despite the experimental material widely presented in the literature on the pharmacological effects of pectins, the clinical application of the developments has not yet been fully implemented. On the one hand, antitumor potential is registered in polymers with a mass of hundreds of kilodaltons, on the other hand, practically nothing is known about such in pectin derivatives weighing less than 20 kDa. In addition, the issues of assessing the nature of the pharmacological interaction of nanoscale pectin and conventional cytostatics are not covered. The aim of this work is an experimental study of the antitumor potential of low-molecular, low-esterified pectin in combination with a cytostatic agent on a model of Walker’s carcinosarcoma. Pectin therapy of Walker’s transplanted tumor in several series of experiments consistently caused inhibition of its growth from 60% to 80%. The combined use of pectin and cyclophosphane caused inhibition of tumor growth up to 72.4%. The increase in life expectancy in the “pectin + cyclophosphane” group versus the “cyclophosphane” group was 200%. It can be concluded that nanoscale pectin is a promising drug for in-depth study since it meets the criteria of primary screening (increase in animal life expectancy, inhibition of tumor growth, survival without tumor growth).
Projeto de Intervenção: um olhar formativo com mulheres da educação profissional
Authors: Carneiro Leão José Antonio
Published: October 2023

Esta pesquisa possui como objeto de estudo Projetos de Intervenção, delimitado no campo da Educação Profissional com mulheres em Curso Lato Sensu. O objetivo da pesquisa esteve em identificar um olhar sobre aspectos operacionais metodológicos utilizados na proposição dos Projetos de Intervenção social utilizados por 18 alunos-cursistas, em sua maioria mulheres, professoras matriculadas no Curso de Especialização em Metodologia da Educação Profissional. O método utilizado nessa pesquisa foi o fenomenológico (Edmund Russerl, 1859-1938), de análise crítica, que se preocupa com a descrição direta da experiência, de como ela ocorre, não como explicação, mas como sua compreensão.  A investigação da experiência realizada no referido curso foi desenvolvida em duas Unidades Formativas no ano de 2015. Os resultados apontaram para a utilização de aspectos operacionais e metodológicos formativos de perspectiva socioespacial e de vivência profissional das professoras, alunas do curso de especialização. As considerações finais destacaram que o processo operacional e metodológico diagnosticado tornam as alunas-cursistas professoras da Educação Profissional localizados no Baixo Sul e Leste baiano, imbricadas no mundo da necessidade humana, em que veio a se traduzir na elaboração de seus Projetos de Intervenção Social, os quais poderão trazer a perspectiva de propor novos estudos e intervenções também na Pós-graduação stricto sensu, com saltos para além das Tecnologias Convencionais (TC). Isso vem a potencializar o desenvolvimento regional de pesquisas que passam pelo olhar sobre esses Projetos de Intervenção. O que vem a valorizá-los (Autoras e seus projetos) com suas experiências, seus diagnósticos, não construídos em gabinetes com interesses diversos, mas do campo em que atuam.
As mulheres no Ensino Técnico: reflexões sobre as relações de gênero e a formação profissional
Authors: Carpes Camargo Edson
Published: October 2023

Este estudo problematiza as relações de gênero no campo da área técnica da Agropecuária, com o objetivo de tensionar como docentes do Curso Técnico em Agropecuária de um Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia localizado na região Sul do Brasil compreendem as relações de gênero que se estabelecem durante o processo de ensino. O processo metodológico perpassou a realização de Grupos de Discussão, proposto por Weller (2005, 2006, 2021) e o Método Documentário, proposto por Mannheim (1964). Para a produção de dados foram organizados três Grupos de Discussão, focando a problemática central em como ensinar jovens no curso técnico em agropecuária e levando em consideração a formação técnica de quem ensina no curso. Participaram do estudo 12 docentes com formação inicial na área técnica e que atuam no Curso Técnico em Agropecuária. Os resultados apontam que a educação se apresenta de forma sexista no modo como o ensino técnico é encarado no curso pesquisado nesta instituição e ainda se faz presente a visão naturalizada dos gêneros, em que as meninas/mulheres são descritas como atenciosas, organizadas e concentradas, numa relação oposta à compreensão de que os meninos/homens são fortes e determinados.
Mulheres na Licenciatura em Computação: problematizações contemporâneas
Authors: Silva Wikboldt Lucélia , Garré Bárbara
Published: October 2023

O presente artigo é recorte de uma pesquisa que problematiza a participação da mulher na ciência, especialmente no Curso de Licenciatura em Computação do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia Sul-rio-grandense (IFSul) Câmpus Pelotas. O trabalho em questão tensiona a constituição dos campos de saber que compõe o Curso – docência e computação –, traçando um olhar sobre as relações de gênero histórico-culturais. Tal interesse de investigação emergiu de algumas inquietações, especialmente quanto ao número reduzido de mulheres que frequentavam o Curso. Para a problematização da pesquisa toma-se como questão norteadora: Como chegamos a essa naturalização que delimita alguns campos de saber como mais propícios aos homens do que às mulheres? Como estratégia metodológica, realizou-se um estudo bibliográfico por meio de artigos coletados em plataformas acadêmicas, como o Google Acadêmico, Scielo, Portal de Periódicos da CAPES e Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD). Também foi feito um mapeamento de trabalhos e estudos que discutissem sobre a emergência da ciência enquanto campo de saber e da inserção da mulher nele.Além disso, alguns dados sobre o próprio Curso de Licenciatura em Computação são utilizados para contextualização de algumas discussões, tais dados versam sobre: matriculados, egressos e evasões por gênero. O estudo permite compreender alguns traços histórico-culturais que levam o referido Curso a se constituir como um campo hegemonicamente masculino, apesar de se tratar de uma licenciatura, considerada uma área feminina, tem uma aderência masculina muito maior, pois o que se coloca em evidência, na busca pelo Curso, é a área da Computação.
"When a Father Speaks, the Child Cannot Answer Back": Patriarchal Anxiety, Gender Equality, and Malian State Authority
Authors: Whitehouse Bruce
Published: October 2023

Abstract: In long intertwined constructions of political and household authority, the figure of the domestic patriarch has served as an analogy for the centralized postcolonial state of Mali, even as it clashes with discourses of natural rights stemming from the European Enlightenment. In early twentyfirst-century Mali, anxieties ran rampant among senior men who feared losing their status and privileges. These anxieties came to a head during efforts by the Malian government and civil-society groups to eliminate gender discrimination from Malian family law in the early 2000s. A broad coalition of patriarchal interests emerged to defend senior males' prerogatives against the perceived threats posed by gender equality. This backlash challenged the legitimacy of Mali's governing elite and exposed its weaknesses in the run-up to Mali's 2012 political collapse.
The “Gigantic Swindle” of 1869–1872: Lessons Learned in Legislating the Draining of the Great Kankakee Marsh
Authors: Dobberstein Michael
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACT: Between 1869 and 1923, the government of Indiana sponsored the draining of the Great Kankakee Marsh and the straightening of the Kankakee River in northern Indiana. Reclaiming the vast marsh posed significant problems and required special legislation. In 1869, the legislature granted sweeping powers to a private corporation to drain the marsh. The company formed under this law, and the law itself, encountered bitter opposition from landowners, and created a storm of protest in the press, which attacked the company as a “gigantic swindle.” Public protests and attacks in the press forced the company to dissolve, and the legislature repealed the law. This article explores the brief unhappy life of the Kankakee Valley Draining Company; the reasons for the uprising against it; and the ways in which the General Assembly devised new legislation, and a more inclusive consensus, which would allow it eventually to accomplish its goal of replacing the Great Marsh with new farmland.
"It Was our Home and Sadly We Will Never Return": Nostalgia and the Circulation of Images in Lebanese Jewish Virtual Communities
Authors: Oringer Molly Theodora
Published: October 2023

Abstract: By focusing on photographs pertaining to Beirut's historic Jewish neighborhood and central synagogue, I address in this article the mobilization of collective nostalgia on three Lebanese Jewish Facebook groups that provide a realm for debating, challenging, and reconstructing concepts of belonging while remembering a shared homeland from the diaspora. Furthermore, I explore how the nostalgic circulation and sharing of family photographs and anonymous snapshots of the community's pre-Civil War life privileges a particular perspective on how life once was, and by excluding other realities from both the photographic frame and historical narrative, creates a community history through which to imagine the future.
