Authors: Handayani Indah Nursyamsi , Ma'murotun Ma'murotun
Published: March 2023

The Incubator Analyzer is equipment to measure the physical parameters contained in the baby incubator to verify the output value of the device and ensure the safety of the equipment for patient care. Currently, there are several products of baby incubator analyzer in Indonesia, but the availability of goods is still imported with relatively expensive product prices, so in this article, we report the development of a prototype baby incubator physical parameter measurement equipment to support the domestic product independence program. The method that has been carried out in this research is experimental in designing and developing a baby incubator physical parameter by maximizing the availability of components in the local market. Design of the prototype refers to SNI IEC 60601-2-19-2014 which is a standard of special requirements for basic safety and essential performance of infant incubators, with the measured parameters consisting of measurements of air temperature in the incubator room, mattress temperature, humidity, airflow, and noise level. The temperature measurement design uses a resistive temperature detector PT 100, SHT 11 as a humidity sensor, GFS131 as an airflow sensor, MAX4466 as a microphone amplifier as a sound sensor, and a 3.5” nextion TFT LCD as a display. This prototype is also equipped with a rechargeable battery system as a portable power supply. The testing is carried out by comparing the results read by a device designed with the Incu Analyzer II Fluke Biomedical. The results show that the prototype of the baby incubator parameter measuring instrument is able to read the values of temperature, humidity, airflow, and noise level in the baby incubator chamber. The accuracy of temperature parameter measurement reaches more than 98%, so this prototype has the potential to be tested by authorized institutions.

Authors: Pasaribu Hugo
Published: March 2023

Population growth has led to an increase in the discharge of runoff and domestic wastewater being channeled into drainage channels. This study aimed to evaluate the drainage volume on Jalan Taud, Medan City, and whether it can accommodate wastewater for the next 50 years. The observed channel started from the boarding house (Jalan Taud No. 112) to the Gulo Pangkas business unit (Jalan Taud No. 16), with a length of 1,000 m. This evaluation considered using population growth, wastewater discharge, runoff discharge, sediment generation, and evapotranspiration processes as part of the water cycle. The investigation showed that the current volume of drainage on Taud Street can still serve the community until 2047. Routine management efforts are needed, such as regular cleaning of the channel from garbage and sediment and also socialization to the community, to making the drainage can function properly.

Relationships between iodine and some trace elements in normal thyroid of females investigated by neutron activation analysis
Authors: Zaichick Vladimir
Published: March 2023

Thyroid diseases rank second among endocrine disorders, and prevalence of the diseases is higher in the elderly as compared to the younger population. An excess or deficiency of trace element contents in thyroid play important role in goitro- and carcinogenesis of gland. The correlations with age of the ten trace element (TE) contents (Ag, Co, Cr, Fe, Hg, Rb, Sb, Sc, Se, and Zn), I/Ag, I/Co, I/Cr, I/Fe, I/Hg, I/Rb, I/Sb, I/Sc, I/Se, and I/Zn content ratios, and inter relationships between TE contents and I/TE content ratios in normal thyroid of 33 females (age range 3.5–87 years) was investigated by instrumental neutron activation analysis. Our data reveal that the Co, Rb, Sb, Se, and Zn content increase, while the I/Co content ratio decrease in the normal thyroid of female during a lifespan. Therefore, a goitrogenic and tumorogenic effect of excessive Co, Rb, Sb, Se, and Zn level in the thyroid of old males and of disturbance in intrathyroidal I/Co relationships with increasing age may be assumed. Furthermore, it was found that the levels of Ag, Co, Cr, Fe, Hg, Rb, Sb, Se, and Zn in the thyroid gland are interconnected and depend on the content of I in it. Because I plays a decisive role in the function of the thyroid gland, the data obtained allow us to conclude that, along with I, at least such TEs as Co, Cr, Fe, Rb, Sb, Se, and Zn, if not directly, then indirectly, are involved in the process of thyroid hormone synthesis.

The spine and carina as a surrogate for target registration in cone-beam CT imaging verification in locally advanced lung cancer radiotherapy
Authors: But-Hadzic Jasna , Strljic Karmen , Zager Marcius Valerija
Published: March 2023

Background

The aim of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of volumetric lung image guidance using the spine or carina as a surrogate to target for image registration, as the best approach is not established.

Patients and methods

Cone beam computed tomography images from the 1st, 10th, 15th, and 20th fraction in 40 lung cancer patients treated with radical radiotherapy were retrospectively registered to planning CT, using three approaches. The spine and carina alignment set-up deviations from a reference (tumour/lymph nodes) registration in the lateral (LAT), longitudinal (LONG) and vertical (VRT) directions were analysed and compared. Tumour location and nodal stage influence on registration accuracy were explored.

Results

The spine and carina mean set-up deviation from reference were largest in the LONG, with the best match in the VRT and LAT, respectively. Both strategies were more accurate in central tumours, with the carina being more precise in 50% LAT and 66% LONG mean deviations. For all measurements in all patients a carina vs. spine registration comparison showed improved carina accuracy in LAT and LONG. In comparative subgroup analysis the carina was superior compared to spine in LAT and LONG in centrally located tumours, N2 and N3. Both strategies were comparable for peripheral tumours and N0.

Conclusions

Carina registration shows greater accuracy compared to spine in the LAT and LONG directions and is superior in central tumours, N2 and N3. The spine and carina surrogates are equally accurate for peripheral tumours and N0. We propose the carina as a surrogate to target for CBCT image registration in locally advanced lung cancer.
Temporal variation in the peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) diet after the extinction of the original population and the emergence of a new population in Slovakia
Authors: Obuch Ján , Chavko Jozef
Published: March 2023

We made an analysis of the osteological remains of prey that had been captured by the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) and was collected from eyries perched high in rocky cliffs of Slovakia. Birds dominated the 7,233 vertebrates identified (class Aves, with minimum of 98 species and 97.2% of the total). Bones from mammals (class Mammalia, 24 species, 2.5%) were rarely found, and sporadic remains from lower vertebrate species (classes Amphibia, Reptilia, Pisces, 0.3%) were also noted. The collected specimens were divided over three distinct periods. Before domestic pigeons became a major component in the juvenile peregrine falcon diet (Period A), wild pigeons and doves were the most common prey; specifically stock doves (Columba oenas) caught at lower elevations, and wood pigeons (Columba palumbus) in mountainous areas. The Eurasian woodcock (Scolopax rusticola) was a frequent prey . The diversity of peregrine falcon diet reached its maximum between the 1930s and the 1950s (Period B), with the domestic pigeon (Columba livia domestica) present in the diet at a similar abundance (16.1%) to wild pigeons and doves. The peregrine falcon population tailed off in the 1960s as pesticides became more commonly used in agriculture. A new population started expanding from Western Europe during the 1990s and has stabilised at around 150 breeding pairs in recent years. Since the turn of the millennium (Period C), domestic pigeons have become the dominant prey (51.1%) along with smaller songbirds such as hawfinches (Coccothraustes coccothraustes) and common starlings (Sturnus vulgaris), at 15.5% and 14.6% of total osteological remains collected, respectively.
The teaching about arterial aneurysm by Professor I.F. Bush as the beginning of angiology and vascular surgery in Russia
Authors: Glyantsev S. P. , Kryukov Yu. Y.
Published: March 2023

The article introduced selected fragments of the "Manual for Teaching Surgery" by Professor of the St. Petersburg Medical and Surgical Academy I.F. Bush (1771-1843), devoted to the teaching about arterial aneurysm, into scientific circulation. For the first time in Russian literature, I.F. Bush defined aneurysm, divided aneurysm into true, false, mixed and arteriovenous, singled out spongy aneurysm (hemangioma), described the etiology, clinic, diagnosis, outcome, prognosis and surgical treatment of aneurysm, as well as indications and contraindications for surgery, possible complications and postoperative care. It should be noted that the teaching about arterial aneurysm is presented with a deep knowledge of the subject and literature about it at the beginning of the 19thcentury, which indicates the great personal clinical experience of the author and his students (V.V. Pelikan, I.V. Buyalsky, etc.) in this section of surgery. It was concluded that the teaching about arterial aneurysm, comprehensively presented by I.F. Bush in 1807-1831, should be considered the beginning of Russian angiology and vascular surgery.

Published: March 2023

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive and the most performed procedure for gallbladder resection. Despite published studies demonstrating the safety of early discharge of patients after lap-cholecystectomy, many have not accepted this approach. The present study aims to identify adult patients who are discharged late or require re-admission after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in King Abdulaziz Medical City (KAMC) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, due to the lack of information regarding a patient's discharge time or re-admittance.
Methods: A cross-sectional study, questionnaire-based chart review was conducted at KAMC in Saudi Arabia, Riyadh, targeting 347 patients, chosen through simple random sampling, that underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomies from January 2016 to December 2020. The p-value < 0.05 was considered significant for all the tests applied. The postoperative length of stay predictors was measured using linear regression modeling.
Results: Among the study subjects, females accounted for up to 76.4%, the largest population (27%) was aged between 51 and 65 years, and the least (23%) were aged between 41 and 50 years. Further 82.2% were not diabetic, and the remaining (35%) had increased HbA1c. The majority had a body mass index

Published: March 2023

In early satellite mission design, requirements are not yet fixed, cost is sometimes negotiable, and designs are relatively unconstrained. During this period of design freedom, multi-objective optimization can provide a useful lens into the design space by showing theoretical performance limits and illuminating design tradeoffs. This work optimizes a radar constellation for a potential soil moisture mission. Several different optimization cases with different variables are considered and contrasted. The optimization of the instrument and constellation parameters is considered jointly and separately to better understand the effect of coupling on the optimization performance. A science-driven optimization based on soil moisture retrieval error is compared with a performance-metric-driven optimization. Pareto analysis and association rule mining are performed on the generated designs to provide insight into driving features. Design recommendations are made for several cost caps. Results show that optimization that considers the instrument and constellation design together find superior revisit metrics than treating instrument and constellation separately. The use of the science value metric as an optimization objective shows that while cost may always be increased to improve instrument and constellation performance, the difference in science value may be negligible. These findings can inform tradespace exploration studies for similar problems.
Optimization and Decision-Making Framework for Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Fleet Design
Authors: Sells Brandon E. , Crossley William A.
Published: March 2023

Many unmanned aircraft applications require or benefit from deploying a fleet to perform a mission. Technology innovations such as rapid prototyping and microelectronics enable the use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) at lower costs, so the ability to design a bespoke UAS for a specific mission is an additional advantage. The problem of designing the new UAS and allocating the fleet of these aircraft is a challenging optimization problem. Using constrained multi-objective design optimization with an interactive multicriteria decision-making method, which involves the mission customer, the approach in this paper generates UAS designs and fleet allocations and determines preferential solutions for the customer. The paper presents a case study involving a UAS weather profiling mission for the aircraft sizing and fleet allocation and uses inputs from meteorological subject-matter experts acting as customers to demonstrate the functionality of the approach.
Nitrogen Jet Array for Ignition Enhancement in a Rocket-Based Combined Cycle Combustor
Authors: An Bin , Sun Mingbo , Wang Jiaoru , Li Peibo , Huang Yuhui , Yang Daoning
Published: March 2023

In a rocket-based combined cycle combustor operating at scramjet mode, the size of the cavity recirculation flow might be reduced when the cavity is subjected to an expansion fan, which is detrimental to ignition. To address this challenge, a method based on a nitrogen jet array is proposed and evaluated in a combustor with a Mach 2.92 inflow. Nitrogen is supplied through injectors in the cavity. In the case without nitrogen injection, the cavity recirculation flow is so small that the spark plug cannot ignite the combustor. In stark contrast, the interaction between the supersonic inflow and the nitrogen jets on the cavity ramp significantly elevates the pressure in the cavity, and it enlarges the cavity recirculation flow. During the ignition process, the enlarged cavity recirculation flow is essential to holding the weak self-sustained flame. The heat, hot products, and radicals generated by the weak self-sustained flame elevate the pressure in the cavity and further enlarge the cavity recirculation flow, which paves the way for a successful ignition. Once a successful ignition is achieved, turning off the nitrogen jet array does not lead to flame extinction. Compared to the mass flow rate of the inflow, the nitrogen consumption for ignition enhancement is minor.

Published: March 2023

Исследования по использованию кормовой добавки на основе ферментированного рапсового шрота проводили на предприятии ООО «Дельта Ф» в Московской области. Цель эксперимента заключалась в оценке влияния разного уровня ввода ферментированного рапсового шрота на показатели молочной продуктивности и биохимические показатели крови. Для проведения эксперимента были сформированы три группы коров второго периода сухостоя по методу пар-аналогов по 15 голов в каждой. Опыт начинали за 14 суток до отёла. В течение 4 недель коров опытных групп приучали к потреблению рационов с ферментированным рапсовым шротом с постепенным увеличением его уровня в рационе до 1,25 кг (1-я опытная группа) и до 2,5 кг (2-я опытная группа) на голову в сутки к 14-му дню лактации. В качестве инструмента управления количеством протеина в рационе и достижения оптимального соотношения сырого, переваримого, расщепляемого и нерасщепляемого протеина применяли полипептидный комплекс «КаноЛак»®, полученный методом твёрдофазной ферментации. Данный продукт относится к добавкам на основе ферментированного рапсового шрота. В ходе эксперимента было установлено, что частичная замена рапсового на ферментированный рапсовый шрот способствовала улучшению протеиновой питательности рациона, а также положительно влияла на показатели молочной продуктивности. Животные 1-й опытной группы имели более высокие показатели удоя, массовой доли жира и белка в молоке, что способствовало увеличению валового выхода молочного белка и жира. Анализ биохимических показателей крови подтвердил тот факт, что рациональное введение ферментированного рапсового шрота в рацион лактирующих коров положительно влияет на обмен веществ и здоровье животных

A feed additive based on a fermented rapeseed cake was tested at the OOO “Delta F” in the Moscow region. The aim was to find the correlations among different concentrations of the fermented rapeseed cake, cow milk productivity and blood biochemistry. Three analogue groups of cows were formed consisted of 15 heads each of the second dry period. The experiment began 14 days before calving. For 4 weeks cows consumed the fermented rapeseed cake under the gradual increase of its concentration up to 1.25 kg (1st group) and 2.5 kg (2nd group) per head daily by the 14th day of lactation. The “KanoLak”® polypeptide complex produced via solid fermentation was used to control protein concentration and balance the proportions of crude, digestible and non-digestible proteins in the diet. This product belonged to the additives based on the fermented rapeseed cake. Partial substitution of the rapeseed cake by the fermented one improved the protein availability in the diet and positively affected milk production. Cows of the 1st group had higher milk productivity, milk fat mass fraction and protein content increasing the gross yields of milk protein and fat. Blood biochemistry indicated the positive impact of the rational introduction of the fermented rapeseed cake into the diet of the lactating cows on their metabolism and health.

This Cortica journal club has mini-reviewed the engram theory  and systems consolidation hypothesis, which are both contributing to an understanding of how memories are made on a neuropsychological level. Yet, to answer the question what individual memories contain, it is essential to take into account the social context. Various studies have shown that social networks are a driving force in determining the content of memories. Certain researchers even argue that individual as well as collective memories are entirely socially constructed. Contemplating this claim is not easy. Even though every human being has their own brain, their own biological and chemical machine, generating and storing memories, it might be that there is very little “my own” in the content we remember. In sum, memory is the bridge between the present and islands of the past. It selectively keeps parts of the past alive, which shape human beings as individuals but also as collectives. This essay reviews and connects neuropsychological and societal mechanisms and influences in the process of learning and memory.
Essay on the classification of individual projects in modern composition
Authors: Амрахова А.А.
Published: March 2023

Цель настоящей статьи — показать, как когнитивные структуры влияют на формообразование в творчестве современных композиторов. В качестве методологической основы выступает процедурная замена следующего рода: это не поиск аналогии между произведением и типологическим образцом, а нахождение в тексте смысловых «отсветов» той или иной разновидности когнитивной модели, ментальной схемы, лежащей в основе композиции. Дальнейший путь интерпретации пролегает от когнитивной структуры к характеристике не текста, а дискурса. Эта процедура может дать дополнительные параметры в характеристике стиля того или иного автора, потому что ментальные структуры, такие как пропозиции, фреймы и образ-схемы, влияют на выбор композиционной модели; вернее, те или иные формы имеют привязку к определенным моделям. Ментальные схемы в сочинениях Губайдулиной, Шаррино, Лахенмана будут проанализированы как своего рода интерфейс между смыслом и формой.

The aim of this paper is to show how cognitive structures influence the process of form-buildingin the work of contemporary composers. The proposed methodological basis consists in a procedural substitution of the following sort: it is the finding of sensual “reflections” of various cognitive models, mental schemes underlying the composition, in the text rather than the search for analogies between an artwork and its typological sample. A further path of the interpretation runs from the cognitive structure to the characteristic of the discourse rather than that of the text. Such a procedure may provide additional parameters in characterizing a particular author’s style, because such mental structures as propositions, frames and image schemes influence the choice of a compositional model; or rather, certain formal structures tend to be attached to certain models. Mental schemes in artworks of Sofia Gubaidulina, Salvatore Sciarrino, Helmut Lachenmann will be analyzed as a kind of interface between their sensual and formal structures.
Protodemetalation of (bipyridyl)Ni(II)–Aryl Complexes Shows Evidence for 5, 6, and 7-Membered Cyclic Pathways

Published: March 2023

Protonation of C–M bonds and its microscopic reverse, metalation of C–H bonds, are fundamental steps in a variety of metal-catalyzed processes. As such, studies on protonation of C–M bonds can shed light on C–H activation. We present here studies on the rate of protodemetalation (PDM) of a suite of arylnickel(II) complex-es with various acids that provide evidence for a concerted, cyclic transition state for the PDM of C–Ni bonds and demonstrate that five, six, and seven-membered transition states are particularly favorable. Our data show that while the rate of protodemetalation of arylnickel(II) complexes scales with acidity for many acids, several are faster than predicted by pKa. For example, while acetic acid and acetohydroxamic acid are much less acid-ic than HCl, they both protodemetalate arylnickel(II) complexes significantly faster than HCl. Our data also shows how in the case of acetohydroxamic acid, a seven-membered cyclic transition state (CH3C(O)NHOH) can be more favorable than a six-membered transition state (CH3C(O)NHOH). Similarly, five-membered transition states, such as for pyrazole, are highly favorable as well. Comparison of transition-state polarization (from den-sity functional theory) compares these new nickel transition states to better-studied precious metal systems and demonstrates how the base can change the polarization of the transition state giving rise to opposing electron-ic preferences. Collectively, these studies suggest several new avenues for study in C–H activation as well as approaches to accelerate or slow protodemetalation in nickel catalysis.
Review of Pumice Raft Formation Environments, Saturation, and Dispersal Mechanisms
Authors: Redick Nathalie R.
Published: March 2023

Pumice rafting events are a common result of volcanic eruptions occurring near or beneath bodies of water. Such events are frequently associated with hazards such as tsunamis, and drift pumice is known to cause local economic disruptions, damage ships, impede naval traffic, devastate marine populations, and distribute potentially invasive species over long distances. However, our current understanding of the mechanisms that drive the formation and dispersal of drift pumice are extremely limited. This article reviews historical and characteristic pumice raft-forming eruptions, how interactions with water factor into macro- and micro-scale controls on pumice clast formation and dispersal, and current methods for detection and analysis to better track and mitigate hazards associated with explosive volcanic eruptions and pumice rafts.

Fishing for flies: testing the efficacy of “stink stations” for promoting blow flies as pollinators in mango orchards
Authors: Finch Jonathan , Gilpin Amy-Marie , Cook James
Published: March 2023

Pollinator communities are composed of diverse groups of insects, with radically different life histories and resource needs. Blow flies are known to visit a variety of economically important crop plants. Larval blow flies develop by feeding on decaying animals. Some fruit growers are known to place carrion on farms during the flowering season to attract adult blow flies (Calliphoridae). However, the efficacy of these “stink stations” has not been tested. We conducted a series of experiments to determine: 1) if stink stations promote the abundance of blow flies in mango orchards (Mangifera indica L.), 2) if any increases in the abundance of flies acts to promote pollination and fruit set in Australian mango orchards. Farms with stink stations had approximately three times more flies than control farms. However, the increased abundance of blow flies did not result in increased fruit set. Although stink stations increased the abundance of blow flies, we found no evidence that their use improves mango yield. This may be due to pollination saturation by a highly abundant native hover fly, Mesembrius bengalensis (Syrphidae), during our study. We hypothesize that stink stations may only be beneficial in years or regions where other pollinators are less abundant.

Purpose: The purpose of our study was to evaluate the usefulness of the BiofireFilmArray Meningitis/Encephalitis (FA ME) panel and identify factors associated with positive FA ME panel results. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 129 patients (45 children, 84 adults) with central nervous system infections and FA ME panel test results. We compared the results of the FA ME panel and the diagnostic yield between pediatric and adult patients with positive and negative FA ME panel results. Positive FA ME panel results were compared with conventional microbiological testing. Results: Forty-three patients (33.3%) had positive results on the FA ME panel. The detected pathogens were enterovirus (n=17, 39.5%), varicella zoster virus (n=10, 23.3%), herpes simplex virus-2 (n=2, 16.3%), herpes simplex virus-1 (n=2, 4.7%), human parechoviruses (n=2), Cryptococcus neoformans/gattii (n=2), Streptococcus agalactiae (n=1, 2.3%), Streptococcus pneumoniae (n=1), and Haemophilus influenzae (n=1). The time to detection of the FA ME panel (4.9±6.6 hours) was significantly shorter than that of conventional culture (77.4±48.2 hours) (P=0.005). Fever was more common in the positive FA ME group than in the negative FA ME group (81.4% vs. 41.9%) and in pediatric patients than in the adult patients (93.3% vs. 34.5%) (P<0.001 for both). The detection rate of the FA ME panel was higher in pediatric patients than in adult patients (55.8% vs. 22.6%, P<0.001). Conclusion: The FA ME panel improves the diagnostic rate in patients with suspected central nervous system infections, with potential favorable implications for the quality of management and prognosis.
V.N. AVTOKRATOV AND THE FORMATION OF THE SCIENTIFIC PEDAGOGICAL SCHOOL OF SOURCE STUDIES
Authors:   Tver State University, Sereda Nadezhda V.
Published: March 2023

The literature about V.N. Avtokratov evaluates his contribution to the theory of archival studies. It is noted that Avtokratov’s approach to the fund formation process as to a particular manifestation of a cause-and-effect relationship is the backbone element of the “general theory of archival studies”. The aim of the present research is to show the enormous positive impact of V.N. Avtokratov’s works on the development of source studies and on the formation of the Scientific and Pedagogical School of Source Studies within the framework of the Department of Source Studies of the Institute for History and Archives at the turn of the 20th-21st centuries. The articles published by Avtocratov in the 1960s – 1970s at that time already were conceptualized and perceived by the scientific community. The appearance at that time of a number of studies based on the analysis of inventories proves to be its striking confirmation. In subsequent years, the staff of the Department of Source Studies of the Institute for History and Archives of the Russian State University for the Humanities proclaimed a thesis about the reflection in the sources system of the past culture projection. The thesis was confirmed in historical and source studies. The efficacy of such an approach to sources has also been demonstrated. The works of that school researchers working within this school deal with the document complexes of various scales.
HISTORIOGRAPHY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF ARCHIVAL AFFAIRS IN KAZAKHSTAN (1991-2021)
Authors:   Archive of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Mustafina Aliya Kh.
Published: March 2023

The article presents a historiographic analysis of the scientific works on the history of the development of archives in Kazakhstan. The paper highlights the most studied topics and the issues raised in the works of Kazakh researchers. The author notes that the problematics of the organization and history of archives administration in Kazakhstan is one of the central topics of the national archival science. That is evidenced by the studied works of both theoretical scholars and practicing archivists. After gaining independence, the republic started forming its own scientific base for studying archival issues, particular historical periods, during which the formation of the archival branch took place. Based on the extensive source material, relying on prior experience, modern researchers have created a historical retrospective of the emergence of archival science in the country. The relevance of the historiographic analysis of the study in the history and organization of archives administration in Kazakhstan is explained by the need to determine its main directions, analyze the approaches and views that have developed over the recent 30 years. At the same time, there still exist unaffected aspects of the history of the development of Kazakhstani archives. In working out the issue the historiographic analysis methods were used, including the comparative historical, chronological, and periodization methods. Monographs, scientific articles, textbooks and reviews on the history of the development of archives administration in Kazakhstan, published in the period from 1991 to 2021, were used as a source base.

Bayındır (İzmir) ilçesinde bulunan Merkez, Tokatbaşı ve Furunlu lokasyonlarında yer alan domates tarlalarında, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)’nın popülasyon gelişimi ve bulaşıklık oranının belirlenmesi amacıyla 2021 ve 2022 yıllarında bu çalışma yürütülmüştür. Zararlının popülasyon gelişiminin takip edilebilmesinde her lokasyonda üç tarla belirlenip, her tarlaya bir adet olmak üzere 9 adet delta tipi feromon tuzağı kullanılmıştır. Bulaşıklık oranının belirlenmesi için ise, her tarladan haftalık olarak rastgele 100 bitki seçilerek zararlı ile bulaşıklık durumuna bakılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, elde edilen verilere göre zararlının ilk erginleri Nisan ayı ortasından itibaren yakalanmıştır. Zararlının Merkez, Tokatbaşı ve Furunlu lokasyonlarında 2021 ve 2022 yıllarında sırasıyla 3 ile 4 döl verdiği belirlenmiştir. Ergin bireyler, yaklaşık olarak doğada 5 ay aktif kalarak Ağustos sonlarına kadar görülmüştür. Bayındır’da domates tarlalarında tespit edilen ortalama bulaşıklık oranı, 2021 ve 2022 yıllarında Merkez’de sırasıyla %23.21 ve %18.26, Tokatbaşı’nda %21.68 ve %20.36 ve Furunlu’da %17.26 ve %19.42 olarak belirlenmiştir. Bayındır ilçesindeki domates üreticilerine fide dikiminin gerçekleştiği gün feromon tuzaklarını asmaları, ilaçlamalarına tuzaklardaki ergin sayısına göre karar vermeleri önerilmektedir. Zararlının popülasyon gelişiminin ve bulaşıklık oranının mevsim sonunda meyvelerde artmaya başlamasından dolayı, mümkünse erken hasada başlayıp, hasat dönemini Ağustos ayında bitirmeleri gerektiği tavsiye edilmektedir.
Fracture Basement Imaging, Identification, and Characterization Through Separated Wave Field Processing Strategies – A Case Study From Offshore Indonesia
Authors: Alai R.
Published: March 2023

As fractured basement characterization has become very critical in Vietnam, Indonesia, Yemen, the United Kingdom, and Malaysia, the focus of our industry has been to improve the imaging technologies related to faults and fractures within the basement. This abstract showcases a sequential and systematic strategy to resolve all imaging challenges from the surface to the pre-basement zones on a dataset from offshore Indonesia. As the overburden is very complex, containing varying sizes of carbonate bodies in a shallow water environment, the image of the basement in the vintage data was very poor and not easily identifiable. With very focused efforts, including the latest available processing technologies in reprocessing, we were able to obtain accurate velocities. This was possible through extensive application of refined denoise, deghosting, and demultiple providing continuous, well-imaged top-basement images that showed good correlation with well data. Most of the efforts in fracture characterization have been concentrating on reviewing, analyzing, and improving seismic attribute performance applied to the seismic data. The performance of the attributes very much depends on the accuracy of the seismic images. With the past successes of fracture basement discoveries, accurate imaging of fractures has been an important objective in seismic data processing. The accuracy of imaging fractures in the pre-basement zone depends on the technologies and their accuracies in resolving the imaging challenges of the overburden geology. In the past, lots of efforts have been made to effectively image, analyze, delineate, and study fractures in basements. The carbonate presence and thick clastic section above the basement have generated strong surface and interbed multiples, and one of the steps that have significant impact on reconstructing the weaker pre-basement signals is effective estimation and subtraction of these. In addition to the specialized workflow for imaging the total wavefield, we extended the workflows to image the separated wave fields of specular reflections and diffraction energy. Imaging diffraction energy provides accurate imaging of faults and basement fractures, and with the integration of the various analyses and attributes, fracture characterization can be optimized.

Ads, also known as adverts or advertisements, are typically seen as a form of public communication aimed at promoting a product, service, brand, or event. The purpose of such ads is to convey the benefits of the product to the audience through visually appealing print or visual media. Advertisements play a crucial role in driving sales by tapping into consumer desires and shaping cultural trends. Companies spend significant amounts on marketing their products through advertising. Over time, the representation of women in advertisements has been changing, moving away from stereotypical portrayals. This paper examines the evolution of the image of women in Indian advertisements.
