LAMINAR BURNING VELOCITY FOR HYBRID MIXTURES OF CORN STARCH DUST AND METHANE GAS AT HIGH INITIAL TEMPERATURE
Authors: Helegda Matous , Helegda Iris , Skrinsky Jan , Kubricka Katerina , Pokorny Jiri
Published: April 2023

A small quantity of flammable gas mixed with dust can cause a large explosion with severe consequences. In this study, hybrid mixtures explosion tests were performed in a constant volume 0.02 m3 spherical vessel. Five pressure-time curves were recorded. The effects of initial temperature on burning velocity were investigated for Lycopodium Clavatum-methane-air hybrid mixtures. The most important results from evaluated experiments are the values of burning rates to understand better the fundamental flame methane-air process in hybrid mixtures. The burning velocity is known to be altered by turbulence. It depends on the coupling interaction between the explosion pressure, the rate of pressure rise, the volume of the vessel, and the ignition source. When discussing hybrid mixtures, the focus is on an admixture of flammable gas in concentrations below the lower explosive limit of the gas itself. If this limit for the gas is exceeded, one soon has a situation where the worst-case scenario for a primary explosion would be a pure gas explosion. In the present study, we highlight the first evaluation of laminar burning velocity determined with electrical point ignition at higher initial temperatures. The experiments have been performed in a 0.02 m3 constant volume vessel of spherical shape adopted for the hybrid mixture experiments. The laboratory-size vessels used in the presented study are geometrically similar, have different sizes, and with point ignition. The values of burning velocity varied when the temperature is higher than 25 -C, and the cube-root law was affected. The initial temperature rise does not affect the dependence between the maximum rate of pressure rise and the maximum explosion pressure in the Cube-root law formula.
ON THE IMPORTANCE OF PUBLIC VIEWS REGARDING THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF PLASTIC POLLUTION IN CLUJ COUNTY, ROMANIA
Authors: Modoi Cristina , Dascal Denisa , Roba Carmen , Balc Ramona
Published: April 2023

Plastic in the environment poses significant problems for the present, as well as for future generations. The consequences and the exposure of living organisms to plastic pollution are not yet fully understand. The risks to health, environment and climate, due to the ubiquity and persistence of plastic are of great interest.
The current study analyzes the perception of the Romanians regarding plastic pollution, in order to determine any pro-recycling behaviour of the local people and to recommend specific actions to reduce plastic pollution and the environmental risks associated with the studied region.
The population is an important agent in waste management, in addition to local and central authorities, sanitation and recycling companies and/or public institutions. In order to achieve our goals, we developed a questionnaire that includes a series of questions related to people-s behaviour, knowledge, perceptions and feelings about waste management in relation to the environment, reducing single-use plastic and plastic hazards.
The results demonstrated that 95.6% of the interviewees agreed that the use of plastic bags is harmful to the environment, 87.9% consider that plastic packaging of some products is sometimes unnecessary, 88.5% believe that recycling is the solution for removing plastic from the environment, and only 59.3% believe that the sanitation company is able to collect the waste selectively. The average of the answers related to the use of recyclable packaging shows that people are more and more concerned about the packaging of the purchased products, their recyclability, and the risks posed by plastic in the environment.
Based on the people-s responses and willingness to get involved in reducing environmental plastic pollution, some measures adapted to the region have been recommended as useful for increasing the plastic recycling rate and reducing risks to the environment.

Published: April 2023

Traditional building materials based on primary natural resources can be used for green housing concepts with energy eco-efficiency and the health of the living space, representing a special group of innovative materials for the construction industry. They are developed by using and improving the local, traditional technologies and concepts applied on basic, natural raw materials (clay and sand, wood, straw, wool, etc.), for the general purpose of creating the living space in a sustainable, environmentally friendly manner. Thus, construction products like adobe bricks, structural or non-structural elements (bearing or/and partition walls, floors, etc) or even complete structures, including the corresponding finishing elements, are realised. The domain allows the valorisation of the vernacular urban heritage of the Romanian space, in full agreement with the European and national strategies to encourage natural, ecological and nonpolluting materials, based on accessible raw materials, non-polluting, with low degree of toxicity and low carbon dioxide emissions and, at the same time, with a high degree of recyclability and ability for conversion to new destinations. The current study is focused on preliminary experimental laboratory testing, performed on several types of earth walls, developed by using diverse clay-based mixes, with or without additional materials as disperse or local placed reinforcement, in order to evaluate their bearing potential as structural, load-bearing system for an ecological housing concept. The initial results and the corresponding comparative analysis are confirming the positive contribution induced by reinforcing the elements, both for the bearing performance and axial contraction reduction and crack prevention as well.
INFLUENCE OF ELEVATED TEMPERATURE ON THE EARLY AGE PROPERTIES OF CEMENT MORTAR WITH ZEOLITE POWDER
Authors: Toma Ionut-Ovidiu , Alexa-Stratulat Sergiu-Mihai , Mihai Petru , Toma Ana-Maria , Venghiac Vasile-Mircea
Published: April 2023

Zeolites can either occur naturally, in volcanic rock formations, or can be synthesized in the laboratory. When ground to a fine powder, they can be successfully used as supplementary cementitious material because of their chemical composition consisting in large amounts of SiO2 and Al2O3 that react with Ca(OH)2 to produce C-S-H gels. The composition of synthetic zeolites can be tailored to suit the purpose of their use in cementbased mortar and concrete and they can be produced from a variety of sources and at much lower energy costs than Portland cement. The use of zeolites in cement-based construction materials has led to improved mechanical and durability properties. The paper presents the preliminary results on using zeolites as supplementary cementitious material in mortar and the influence of elevated temperatures on the early age mechanical properties. The main parameters of the research were the replacement percentage of Portland cement by zeolite powder (10% and 20%, by volume of cement) as well as different temperature values (100�C, 150�C and 200�C). Standard 40?40?160 mm mortar prisms were cast and cured in water for 14 days before being subjected to elevated temperatures in an oven for 4 hours then left to gradually cool until they reached the room temperature. A control mix consisting of rapid hardening Portland cement was also cast and served as reference in the experimental program. The obtained results are presented in terms of density of the mortar mix, flexural and compressive strength.
Malaria Vaccine Development: Challenges and Prospects
Authors: Etefia Etefia , Etoh Paul Inyang-
Published: April 2023

Background: The development of a licensed malaria vaccine has been challenging due to the complex multi-stage life cycle, antigenic variation, and genetic diversity of Plasmodium. Numerous vaccines have been developed for various stages of Plasmodium, including pre-erythrocytic, blood stage, placenta, and transmission-blocking vaccines. However, none of these vaccines are completely effective and have high reactogenicity.Aim: The aim of this review is to examine the challenges and prospects in developing an effective malaria vaccine, with a focus on the development of a multi-stage or multivalent malaria vaccine.Materials and Methods: The authors conducted a review of the literature on malaria vaccine development, focusing on the challenges and prospects of developing an effective malaria vaccine.Results: Efforts are underway to develop a multi-stage or multivalent malaria vaccine (MultiMalVax) that may best target sporozoite development and neutralize merozoites, hepatocytes, and erythrocytes. A thorough understanding of potential vaccine targets and how immunity works is critical to developing a fully effective malaria vaccine.Conclusion: The challenges associated with developing an effective malaria vaccine are significant due to the complex nature of the Plasmodium life cycle. However, the development of a multi-stage or multivalent malaria vaccine offers prospects for overcoming these challenges and developing a fully effective malaria vaccine. A better understanding of potential vaccine targets and how immunity works is crucial in developing an effective vaccine against malaria.
REFLECTIONS ON EXTENDING THE TERM OF OFFICE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNITS
Authors: Gurdek Magdalena
Published: April 2023

On September 29, 2022, the Sejm adopted the Act on the extension of the term of office of local government units until April 30, 2024 and on the amendment of the Electoral Code1, pursuant to which the term of office of commune councils, poviat councils, provincial assemblies, district councils of the capital city Warsaw, commune heads, mayors and presidents of cities, which expires in 2023, is extended until April 30, 2024. The author of this study analyzed the course of the legislative process, statements justifying the adoption of the act, but also and perhaps above all those in opposition to this regulation, as well as the principles arising from the Constitution and electoral law in the context of the provisions of this Act. All this enabled her to answer the bothering questions: does the adoption of this act violate the basic principles of electoral law? Is the change in the length of the term of office during its term, one year before its expiry, consistent with the Constitution of the Republic of Poland? What will be the impact of the entry into force of this law?
COMPLIANCE WITH EX LEGE QUARANTINE LAW
Authors: Fleszer Dorota
Published: April 2023

Health protection, as referred to in article 1 section 68 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland does not only concern ensuring access to healthcare services for everyone, but also combating epidemic diseases and preventing the negative health effects of environmental degradation. One of the manifestations of a preventive form of health protection are the activities of authorized bodies aimed at ensuring food safety and hygiene. However, this does not mean consent to the lack of respect for other constitutionally guaranteed human rights and freedoms and the principles of correct legislation. The act of imposing a quarantine based on a legal act issued in violation of the above-mentioned legal rules is then ineffective.

Authors: Konieczny Marcin Krzysztof
Published: April 2023

Manipulation as a way of influencing a person has a negative connotation due to the techniques and methods of influence used, as well as instrumentalism in the manipulators relationship with the person subjected to manipulation. This also applies to the manipulation of information. Nevertheless, in terms of investigations and actions taken by law enforcement agencies, information manipulation gains a new dimension, as it often leads to the disclosure of the truth and detection of the perpetrator of the crime. In addition, the manipulation of information is used in the mass media and serves to calm the public and restore public order. The purpose of this article is to present information manipulation as one of the ways in which law enforcement agencies operate. The approach to the above topic requires first defining what manipulation is, and then characterizing the tasks and specificity of the activities of law enforcement agencies. The essence of the article includes a description of the use of information manipulation in the work of, inter alia, services such as the police and the prosecutors office, along with an analysis of the rightness of such actions and the presentation of the above case on selected examples. The research problem raised in the study concerned the use of information by law enforcement services to manipulate the message in order to obtain benefits related to the investigation. It was found that the deliberate manipulation of information by the Polish law enforcement authorities allows to obtain tangible benefits in the form of obtaining information about the perpetrators of crimes, the circumstances of their commission, as well as the detection of motives that led to the commission of the crime. An important aspect of information manipulation by Polish law enforcement agencies is the possibility of reassuring the public opinion by making available only such information that will not arouse panic and social unrest.

IMPORTANCE OF DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE IN SEPARATE PROCEEDINGS IN COMMERCIAL CASES
Authors: Chrapoński Dariusz
Published: April 2023

Documentary evidence plays an important role in separate proceedings in commercial cases, which is reflected in the regulation contained in Article 45811 of the Code of Civil Procedure. It stipulates that all material factual circumstances related to a change in civil law relations that affect the resolution of the case can only be proven by documentary evidence. In contrast, the taking of evidence from other sources of evidence would be inadmissible. Such an interpretation, however, would mean that documentary evidence in commercial proceedings is the exclusive evidence to prove the circumstances referred to in this provision. A proper interpretation of this provision should lead to the conclusion that documentary evidence has primacy over other evidence in the sense that the court shall first take evidence from such evidence and, and if all the circumstances relevant to the case have not been clarified, from other types of evidence.

Authors: Sokołowska Karina
Published: April 2023

Introduction: The article aims to present the phenomenon of adolescent flirting, with particular emphasis on the context of contemporary cultural challenges. The article is a review, based on domestic and foreign literature. A closer acquaintance with the flit phenomenon may help understanding the social functioning of adolescents and thus may be helpful in creating preventive and intervention programs for young people. Analysis: The analysis of the phenomenon begins with the presentation of two ways of defining the phenomenon, in the biological and philosophical sciences. The reasons why people flirt can be found within the theoryof evolution as well as the theory of human psychosexual development. The impact of social norms on the perception of behaviours that we attribute to this phenomenon was discussed. The undertaken flirtation strategies were distinguished according to gender and sexual orientation. The concept of five styles of flirting wasintroduced: traditional, physical, sincere, fun and polite (Hall et al., 2010). Conclusions: The Internet and forced isolation related to the outbreak of the COVID-19pandemic have significantly influenced adolescent flirting. The digital reality for young people is as real as the material reality. Accordingly, romantic life takes placeusing new technologies. Universal signs and scripts for communicating interest are changing. For adolescents these days, sending a love letter will be less accessiblethan, for example, deepliking. There are also threats in the digital world of teenage romantic relationships, such as feeling FOMO and its consequences, or experiencingonline sexual abuse.
THE IMPORTANCE OF ACTIVATING ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND INNOVATION OF ECONOMIC AGENTS FUNCTIONING IN THE ECONOMY AND CONTEMPORARY TRENDS IN TEACHING ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN HIGHER EDUCATION
Authors: Matosek Mirosław , Prokopowicz Dariusz , Grzegorek Jan
Published: April 2023

This article describes the key determinants of the importance and need for the activation of entre-preneurship and innovation for the effective development of economic entities in Poland and the improvement of market efficiency. The process of activating economic activity and creating innova-tion is possible primarily through the use of specific systemic solutions that improve the operation of economic entities, as well as various institutions functioning in their environment. In the context of effective development of economic entities, the issue of activation of innovativeness and entrepre-neurship is a particularly important determinant, as in this way it is possible to significantly in-crease the economic effectiveness of a given entity, improve its financial situation and, as a conse-quence, also increase tax revenues to the state and municipal budgets. On the other hand, it is also important to improve business-social relations between enterprises and state and local government bodies. Efficient implementation of programmes activating entrepreneurship and innovativeness is determined by the process of developing correlations and feedback in the area of cooperation be-tween enterprises, local government units and other institutions of closer and further business environment, including state authorities. Economic growth in Poland is to a large extent determined by innovativeness and entrepreneurship of local and national economic entities. Apart from that, in this article a diagnosis of contemporary trends in teaching entrepreneurship in higher education has been conducted on the example of characteristics of applied didactic methods at the Academy of Entrepreneurship in Warsaw. The aim of the didactic methods used at the university described in this article is, among others, shaping entrepreneurial and pro-innovative attitudes of students.
Journal of Multiscale Neuroscience
Authors:   Department of Cognitive and Information Sciences University of California, Merced Merced, CA 95343, Spivey Michael J.
Published: April 2023

Welcome to a special issue of Journal of Multiscale Neuroscience focused on The Mind and The Brain: A Multiscale Interpretation of Cognitive Brain Functionality. This special issue contains six articles that come from different disciplinary perspectives and methods that themselves span a range of spatiotemporal scales for analyzing cognition and behavior. At a time when the field of cognitive science is transitioning away from the computer metaphor of the mind and toward complex interactive frameworks (Spivey, 2023), these articles serve as waypoints for how to go about building those new theories. The articles include philosophical reviews of the processes that allow for self-organization to emerge in a multiscale cognitive system (Silberstein, 2023) and how best to model such multiscale processes (Favela, 2023). They include dense-sampling measures of postural movements (Corbin et al., 2023), time series analyses of music perception (Waddington & Balasubramaniam, 2023), and recurrence quantification analysis of spoken sentence comprehension (Nguyen & Spivey, 2023). And it all culminates in a big-picture perspective on how mental activity across any and all life forms may be best understood as emerging from collective action among sub-elements interacting to form self-organized metastable cognitive structures (Falandays et al., 2023).
