Failure to deduce false suppositions in proof by contradiction is still considered “more difficult” than proving the conditional to in proof by contraposition. This study aims to identify the types of proof construction failures based on the action steps of proof by contradiction, then offer a framework of construction failure hypothesis specifically used in proof by contradiction. The research data were collected and analyzed from the work of students who have agreed to be research participants, a total of 83 students. The results of the analysis of student work successfully identified four types of failures, namely formulating suppositions, constructing and manipulating suppositions, identifying contradictions, and disproving suppositions. These four types of failures then became the material for the development of the hypothesis framework of a failure to construct proof by contradiction, which consists of 17 hypothesis nodes divided into three main hypotheses, namely: operational (action), affective (emotional), and foundational (logical reasoning). The failure hypothesis framework justifies that the sources of the failure of proof construction in proof by contradiction are understanding of the act of producing a proof by contradiction, emotionality towards the coherence of the construction steps, disproving suppositions, beliefs, use of appropriate definitions-theorems and axioms, and cognitive tension in proof by contradiction; and formal logic of the act of producing a proof by contradiction, as well as differences in the underlying logic with other acts.

Published: July 2023

Mathematical proofs play a paramount role in developing 21st-century skills, and the use of technology in mathematics learning has widely paved the way in the instruction of mathematical proofs. In mathematics education, GeoGebra has a significant role as a dynamic mathematics software in supporting students' learning process. This study aims to use GeoGebra in supporting prospective elementary teachers' mathematical proofs of the volume of 3-D shapes. This research used a case study method with 23 first-year prospective elementary teachers as participants from a public university in Riau, Indonesia.  The data were gathered by means of students' work recordings in the GeoGebra classroom and video recordings from their interactions in the course of small group and classroom discussions. The videos were transcribed using verbatim, and then the mathematical proofs were analyzed using praxeological analysis. The findings show that prospective elementary teachers still had challenges to connect the construction of the volume of 3-D shapes using GeoGebra to its informal mathematical proofs. However, GeoGebra provides an opportunity to learn informal mathematical proofs for prospective elementary teachers.

Published: July 2023

Os pequenos municípios são entes relevantes na oferta de serviços públicos para a população brasileira. Entretanto, ainda enfrentam grandes dificuldades e possuem resultados díspares na entrega de políticas públicas para os cidadãos. As capacidades estatais desses entes, por sua vez, são elementos que influenciam o cumprimento desta importante missão constitucional. O presente estudo tem como objetivo examinar as capacidades estatais de pequenos municípios do Estado de São Paulo, de mesorregiões distintas. As capacidades estatais consideradas são as capacidades técnico-administrativos e as capacidades político-relacionais. Para alcançar esse objetivo, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, de natureza descritiva, com foco na perspectiva dos prefeitos de três pequenos municípios do estado. Os dirigentes foram escolhidos porque se espera que eles tenham conhecimento suficientemente amplo sobre os assuntos tratados, em virtude das responsabilidades legais que possuem frente às Prefeituras. Os resultados sugerem que os municípios estudados possuem muitas semelhanças, embora sejam de mesorregiões diferentes. No quesito de capacidades técnico-administrativas, há existência comum de um perfil fiscal debilitado e ausência da dimensão estratégica nas áreas de gestão de pessoas e do planejamento municipal. Com relação às capacidades político-relacionais, os resultados apontam experiências diversas de participação popular, com certa convergência na rejeição da atuação dos conselhos municipais de políticas públicas e a existência de uma interlocução ativa com os demais entes públicos, muito em parte pela dependência da transferência de recursos financeiros para o seu próprio financiamento.

Published: July 2023

A educação é um direito humano e fundamental protegido no âmbito internacional e nacional. No contexto penitenciário ela enquadra-se nas políticas de reabilitação penal. Para abordar esta questão no contexto moçambicano, realizou-se uma pesquisa no Estabelecimento Penitenciário Provincial de Maputo com o objectivo de analisar os processos da sua organização e implementação, bem como conhecer os seus limites, desafios e perspectivas. A metodologia usada foi análise documental, observação e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os resultados mostram que o quadro legal penitenciário é favorável para a educação escolar, porém, o ensino implementado apresenta lacunas no campo da sua implementação por não dispor de instrumentos normativos específicos que regem suas práticas e estar basicamente orientado para o ensino geral. Estes resultados sugerem a necessidade da criação de uma directriz normativa e curricular nacional para o contexto penitenciário que atende às especificidades, particularidades, perfis, características e reais necessidades de jovens e adultos privados de liberdade.

Nakazawaea is a genus of ascomycetous yeasts in the order
Saccharomycetales. Currently, 15 species of the Nakazawaea genus
have been isolated from diverse habitats, with a predominant association
with plant materials . In this study, we describe a novel
species, Nakazawaea atacamensis f. a.,sp. nov., isolated from
Neltuma chilensis (synonym Prosopis chilensis, Algarrobo)
samples in the Atacama Desert of Chile. The novel species was identified
based on morphological, physiological, biochemical, and molecular
characteristics. The phylogenetic analysis using concatenated sequences
of the SSU rRNA gene, ITS region, and D1/D2 domains of LSU rRNA revealed
that N. atacamensis sp. nov. formed an early diverging cluster
closely related to Nakazawaea siamensis and Nakazawaea
odontotermitis. The sequence identity of N. atacamensis differed
from closely related species by 3.3% to 20.4% in the investigated
regions. Phenotypic comparisons demonstrated that N. atacamensis
sp. nov. exhibited distinct carbon assimilation patterns compared to
related species. Genome sequencing of the type strain ATA-11A-B revealed
a genome size of approximately 12.4 Mbp, similar to other
Nakazawaea species, with 5,116 protein-coding genes annotated
using InterProScan. In addition, N. atacamensis exhibited the
capacity to ferment synthetic wine must, representing a potential new
yeast for mono or co-culture wine fermentations. This comprehensive
study expands our understanding of the Nakazawaea genus and
highlights the ecological and industrial potential of these yeasts in
fermentation processes and diverse habitats. The holotype is N.
atacamensis sp. nov. (CBS 18375).

Objective: to correlate the clinical history with imaging findings of
women with MRKH Design: Retrospective cohort study Setting: A UK IOTA
and ESGO-certified tertiary referral centre for disorders of
reproductive development Population: All patients with a diagnosis of
MRKH and had undergone an MRI pelvis between 1st January 2011 – 31st
April 2021 were included Method: MRI images were analysed by specialist
gynaecological radiologists. Clinical data was extracted from an
electronic patient record system. Statistical analysis was computed in R
(version 4.1.2), R base stats package and ggstatsplot (v0.5.0). Outcome
measures: clinical history and predefined imaging features Results: 134
patients were included. Median age at MRI was 18 years (10 – 64 years).
Half (48.2%) of women presenting had a history of pain, most often
abdominal (84.6%) or vaginal (9.2%). Anlage were identified in 91.8%
of women (n = 123). 4.5% of women had imaging features of endometriosis
(n = 6). Women with a functional anlage were significantly more likely
to experience pain (p <0.001). Pain history was not strongly
associated with ectopic ovarian position. Common gynaecological
pathology such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts and fibroids were also
identified. Conclusions: We identify that majority of women with MRKH
will have uterine anlage with a connecting fibrous band, and an ectopic
ovarian position 44.0% of cases. Abdominal pain was significantly
associated with functional anlage on MRI. Further work is required to
identify how other gynaecological pathology impacts women with MRKH.

Energy storage like batteries is essential for stabilizing the erratic electricity supply. High temperatures when the power is charged and discharged will pro-duce high temperatures during the charging and discharging of batteries. To maintain optimum battery life and performance, thermal management for battery energy storage must be strictly controlled. This study investigated the battery energy storage cabinet with four cases studies numerically. The results show that Case 1, as the initial design not performing optimally. Thermal buoyancy occurs, resulting in the temperature in the top area being warmer than the lower area. The battery surface temperature is steadily at 47?C. Case 2 added fans on the center of the cabinet bottom surface to overcome the problem, while Case 3 added fans on the left side of the cabinet bottom surface. The battery surface temperatures in Cases 2 and 3 are steady at 39?C and 37?C. However, high temperatures still accumulated in the top area for both cases. Contrarily, Case 4 per-forms a better thermal distribution by adding exhaust air to the top side of the cabinet. The results revealed that the placement of exhaust air could enhance the removal of heat generated from the batteries accumulated in the top area. The battery surface temperature in Case 4 is relatively at 35?C. Case 4 also performs the best thermal distribution, which desired temperature could be successfully achieved faster compared to other cases.
Experimental study of 1-D downward-opposed smoldering combustion of tropical peat and effect of excess air on the transition from smoldering to flaming
Authors: Palamba Pither , Werdhani Anastasia
Published: July 2023

This research is conducted to study the effect of air-flow rate to the smoldering combustion dynamics and transition flaming. Test is done using peat extracted from Papua Provinces, Indonesia. The combustion is conducted on natural, 1.33 cm/s, 3.98 cm/s, and 6.63 cm/s of air-flow, respectively, representing the oxidation with lack and excess of air as calculated by stoichiometric equilibrium. Test result show that smoldering spread rate tends to increase with increasing the air supply. Differences in physical properties yield the different of the smoldering dynamic behavior. In general, the higher the air-flow velocity leads to a higher smoldering temperature, spread rate, and mass loss rate. Combustion with natural air and lack of oxygen will result in smoldering whereas in excess air led to transition flaming.
Energy efficient compressed air filtration: An experimental study on the effect of filters selection and configuration on pressure drop
Authors: Milenkovic Ivana , Reljic Vule , Dudic Slobodan , Mladenovic Valentina
Published: July 2023

Over the past decades, the industrial sector has been trying to improve the use of resources and the environmental impact they create. Significant work has been done in compressed air systems. However, there is still much room for improvement. The focus of this study is on a new approach to energy efficient compressed air filtration. This approach involves the installation of different filter configurations that enable a lower pressure drop, instead of the conventionally selected filter. The goal is to reduce the pressure drop, while maintaining the same level of air quality. Pressure drop and compressed air quality are taken as key performance indicators that assess the efficiency and sustainability of compressed air system. It has been experimentally proven that compressed air quality classes remain the same for filters with the same grade of filtration, regardless of the number, type, and way of their installation. However, there is a small difference in the case of particulate and coalescing filters. This environmentally friendlier approach provides a win-win situation. The pressure drop is reduced, costs are also reduced, the system operates continuously and more reliably, and the process is more sustainable.
Flame propagation of premixed gas explosion with different equivalent ratio under corrugated fire-retardant core
Authors: Li Zehuan , Duan Yulong , Lei Shilin , Wen Ziyang , Zheng Lulu , Long Fengying
Published: July 2023

Based on the self-built experimental set-up, the propagation law of explosion flame of hydrogen/methane premixed gas with different hydrogen volume fractions in different equivalent ratios was investigated under the action of a corrugated fire-retardant core. The experimental study shows that the flame isolation and suppression effect of the corrugated fire-retardant core at different equivalence ratios is either promoted or suppressed, the hydrogen/methane premixed gas ex?plosion flame is quenched without hydrogen mixing when ? = 0.8 and 1.0, and also quenched when ? = 1.2 in different hydrogen volume fractions. The corrugated flame-retardant core significantly affected the extinguishing of the explosion flame of the premixed gas when ? = 1.2, the flame propagation speed and overpressure showed a similar trend under different volume fractions of hydrogen. When the flame is quenched, the flame is depressed inward to form a reverse spherical cell flame, reverse diffusion combustion phenomenon occurs, and it lasts a long time, eventually, the combustion reaction extinguished. The flame penetrated the corrugated fire-retardant core during the rest of conditions. When ? = 1.0, the flame reaction of the hydrogen/methane premixed gas explosion under the action of the corrugated fire-retardant core is the most violent, and its propagation speed and overpressure jump rapidly until it reaches a peak.

Abstract

Objective: Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) for type 1 diabetes is increasing in use. Pump site failures are common, yet little is known about the skin changes from pump use. Using noninvasive optical coherence tomography (OCT), OCT angiography (OCTA), and skin biopsies, we evaluated the skin changes of chronic insulin infusion.

Research Design and Methods: In this cross-sectional study an OCT operating at 1310nm central wavelength with a bandwidth of 100 nm was performed immediately before skin punch biopsies were collected at three sites: a “current site”, infusion set removed at time of OCT and biopsy; a “recovery site”, infusion set removed 3 days prior to biopsy: and a “control” site, never used for any insulin infusion or injection.

Results: OCT and OCTA identified characteristics of increased inflammation and vessel density at pump sites compared to control sites. Histological analysis of pump sites showed differences in skin architecture including fibrosis, inflammation including increased tissue eosinophils and fat necrosis. Immunohistochemical staining showed differences between infusion sites and the control sites for staining of insulin-like-growth factor-1 and transforming growth factor β-3.

Conclusions: These findings support allergic sensitization as a potentially common reaction at CSII sites. The leading candidates include insulin preservatives, plastic materials, or adhesive glue used in device manufacturing. The inflammatory response caused by these common allergic responses may result in tissue changes responsible for the infusion site failures seen frequently in clinical practice.

Objective: To examine the association of age with long-term psychosocial outcome following traumatic brain injury.
Participants: One hundred and twelve participants with mild to very severe traumatic brain injury, aged 26–89 years at 5–22 years post-injury, 112 significant others and 112 healthy controls matched for current age, gender, education and estimated IQ.
Methods: Changes in occupational activity, interpersonal relationships and independent living skills were assessed in participants with traumatic brain injury using the Sydney Psychosocial Reintegration Scale (SPRS). Employment status of participants with traumatic brain injury and control participants was compared at the time of assessment.
Results: No age effects were demonstrated on the 3 SPRS domains. However, compared with healthy individuals, older participants with traumatic brain injury showed greater likelihood of unemployment relative to younger participants with traumatic brain injury.
Conclusion: By using matched controls this study has demonstrated that older individuals with traumatic brain injury are less likely to return to the workforce than younger individuals with traumatic brain injury. Other aspects of psychosocial outcome appeared to be less affected by age, although specific domains require closer examination in relation to healthy age-matched controls.
HRM-praksiser i TV-produksjon
Authors: Bastesen Jarle , Nesheim Torstein , Ørjasæter Elin
Published: July 2023

The research on and practice of human resource management (HRM) typically are related to standard employment relationships and the HRM triad of line managers, employees and a HRM department. In this chapter we describe and analyze HRM in the context of television production in Norway. We identify a “deviant” context that is rarely studied, one characterized by project-based work and contingent employment relationships. In the theoretical part of the paper different contexts for HRM are described. We then provide a brief overview of the Norwegian institutional environment of employment relations. Based on 18 semi-structured interviews with respondents in various roles in TV production, we describe and analyze key HRM themes in the sector. Project organization is a characteristic feature in the production companies. They typically combine a small core of employees on open-ended contracts with (project-based) temporary employees and contractors. A collective agreement has been established in the TV industry for temporary employees, which is quite unique in Norway. A consistent finding is that the HRM function is minimalistic and “fuzzy”, for example, in relation to employee development and performance appraisals. However, many firms emphasize health and safety issues.

Authors: Cho Haeyon , Baek Chung Hee , Park Su-Kil , Kim Hyosang , Go Heounjeong
Published: July 2023

Background: Pathologic diagnosis of antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) in ABO-incompatible (ABOi) transplantation patients is often challenging because patients without ABMR are frequently immunopositive for C4d. The aim of this study was to determine whether C4d positivity with microvascular inflammation (MVI), in the absence of any detectable donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) in ABOi patients, could be considered as ABMR.Methods: A retrospective study of 214 for-cause biopsies from 126 ABOi kidney transplantation patients was performed. Patients with MVI score of ≥2 and glomerulitis score of ≥1 (n = 62) were divided into three groups: the absolute ABMR group (DSA-positive, C4d-positive or C4d-negative; n = 36), the C4d-positive group (DSA-negative, C4d-positive; n = 22), and the C4d-negative group (DSA-negative, C4d-negative; n = 4). The Banff scores, estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs), and graft failure rates were compared among groups.Results: C4d-positive biopsies showed higher glomerulitis, peritubular capillaritis, and MVI scores compared with C4d-negative specimens. The C4d-positive group did not show significant differences in eGFRs and graft survival compared with the absolute ABMR group.Conclusion: The results indicate that C4d positivity, MVI score of ≥2, and glomerulitis score of ≥1 in ABOi allograft biopsies may be categorized and treated as ABMR cases.

Introduction. The work is devoted to the study of the generation and development of turbulent structures in shallow-water flows. For optimal water resource management, it is necessary to know what the consequences will be if the flow system changes as a result of human intervention. Basically, all fluid flows that relate to the practice of civil engineering are turbulent in nature. These are, for example, river and channel flows, tidal currents in the oceans and coastal seas. Shallow currents in the environment often include a wide range of vortex scales, ranging from micro-scale vortices to large-scale coherent structures with horizontal length scales that far exceed the depth of water (L >> H). The existence of such large structures is a typical characteristic of turbulence in shallow flow. This indicates the need for a systematic analysis of the problem, as well as modeling of such complex formalized systems. The purpose of this work is to model and analyze the dynamics of quasi-2D turbulence structures.

Materials and Methods. Large-scale quasi-2D coherent structures (2 DCS) are investigated depending on the source and localization in the liquid column. Turbulent flows in the channel satisfying incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are considered. The numerical experiment was carried out on the basis of the “large eddy simulation” (LES) approach.

The Results of the Study. Scenario of the dynamics of quasi-2D turbulence structures of the coastal zone is constructed, the formation of vortex structures is predicted.

Discussion and Conclusions. The development of two-dimensional turbulence in shallow flows illustrates the processes that control quasi-two-dimensional turbulence, including the merging of individual vortices. The main mechanism controlling the decay of 2DCS is the loss of energy due to friction on the bottom, while the larger the size of the vortex relative to the depth, the faster the direct dissipation of its kinetic energy occurs.
STRATEGIC BASES OF FORMING THE CALENDAR OF CITY EVENTS COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE CITIES OF THE REGION IN THE PRE-PANDEMIC PERIOD

The author of the article explores the peculiarities of the formation of the calendar of city events. Cities of Ukraine have already embarked on a path of fierce competition for tourist attractiveness. The fame and attractiveness of the city allows him not only to benefit from the costs incurred by tourists in the city. Such cities are faster to upgrade the infrastructure of the local market and rejuvenate the average age of the average citizen. Tourist attractiveness is the fulfillment of a tourist's expectations to receive a certain service / product of proper quality at a certain time. The city must continuously provide tourists with a wide range of such services. The only effective tool that allows you to perform this task is a properly formed calendar of city events.

The study examined the basic parameters of forming an effective calendar of events in the city. It is emphasized that any event takes place in a certain environment. It was determined that the main markers of such an environment are the potential of the city, the availability of suitable tourism infrastructure, the willingness of local elites and residents to invest in the development of tourist infrastructure, the availability of quality and development of new routes to other cities. Understanding that the features of the event environment, allows you to determine the criteria for selecting events and the principles of their placement in the calendar of events.

On the example of the calendar of events in Chernivtsi, Lviv and Kamyanets-Podilsky, the principles of composing the list of planned events were formulated.

We came to the conclusion that for cities that suffer from the actions of competitors, you need to review their strategies for forming a calendar of events, invent and quickly apply countermeasures. In addition, the pace of development of the tourism market in the pre-pandemic period was quite stable, in particular, the number of tourists increased, including and to Ukraine. In the post-pandemic period, tourist routes will be restored. The arsenal of advertising tools and techniques that cities will use to promote their events will be enriched with new tools. The competition will only intensify. Thus, for Ukrainian cities the issues of formation of tourist attractiveness become especially important. Therefore, to ensure the growth of tourist attractiveness, cities should properly use including such a tool as a calendar of city events.

The article considers the problems of formation and development of the rented housing segment in foreign countries. The impact of changing consumers generations on the residential real estate market, which have other formats of consumer behavior, a different lifestyle, an approach to planning the structure and directions of consumer spending, other plans for the future. It is noted that in almost all countries there are laws that protect the rights of tenants, and an effective judicial system guarantees the protection of landlords' rights.

The experience of foreign countries and their regions in the regulation of the rental housing segment is analyzed: USA, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Great Britain, Japan. Based on the analysis of international experience, it is concluded that in most countries the law regulates the organizational and legal aspects of rental relations, the legislative level also sets minimum standards and quality characteristics of rental housing, which are often the responsibility of regional authorities. state, province or land.

It is emphasized that there is an objective need to regulate the residential real estate market development, including in the rental segment, at the national, regional and local levels. It is noted that local governments of Ukraine should pay attention to this segment in the direction of developing "Regional standards of long-term lease", which will regulate relations, share responsibilities, responsibilities and rights, reconcile the interests of the tenant and the landlord.

The article contains a procedure for conducting an empirical analysis of the regional educational network, which made it possible to process, systematize and streamline a significant array of empirical economic information about its nodes: "Education", "Science and Innovation", "Power", "Business", "Stakeholders".

An analysis of the nodes of the current regional educational network of the Chernivtsi region showed a sufficiently high potential of educational, business, innovative, methodological, event-driven, stakeholder subsystems, which allows it to take leading positions in many respects.

Many serious problems have been diagnosed, including educational migration, demographic situation, low innovation activity, leading to increased competition between business and education, between different levels of education, between regions and countries and require the transformation of the regional educational network with a focus on the needs of the territorial community, regional economy , society, on the creation of new types of educational institutions, the development of educational programs of a new generation, the development of alternative forms and formats of education, and most importantly - on the implementation of the concept of lifelong learning.
