Deriving formula to simulate the radiological behavior during LOCA in open pool type reactor
Authors: Abdelhady Amr
Published: February 2022

This study aims to model the radiological consequences that result from loss of coolant accident in open pool research reactor of 22 MW power. The loss of coolant accident results from rupture in the cooling systems of the reactor and consequently results in decreasing the water level in the reactor pool. Decreasing the water level, that represents the shielding material above the reactor core, results in increasing the dose rate in the top region in the reactor pool as well as the reactor building. LOCA normally results in shutting down the reactor due to the radioprotection system provided in the upper region of the reactor pool. A failure in shutdown systems of the reactor during LOCA is rare but expected and it represents the worst case. So, evaluating LOCA from the radiological point of view must be investigated for the safe shutdown mode as well as the failure of shutdown case. The study also includes occurring LOCA for shutdown reactor taking the decay time into consideration. ORIGEN-S module from scale system was used to estimate the delayed neutrons and gamma rays from the core for the shutdown mode. KENO-VI module from Scale system was used to estimate the prompt neutrons and gamma rays generated from the core for the failure case. Then, MAVRIC/Scale module was used to estimate the dose rate at the top point of the reactor pool for the two cases during LOCA.Studying the dose rate during LOCA aims to determine the water level that verifies the radiological safety limit at the top point of the reactor pool for the two cases. The calculations introduced a relationship between the water level that verifies the permissible radiological limit (WL) and the decay time (DT) in the range between 0 to 30 d.

Published: February 2022

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the impact of different breast cancer radiotherapy regimens on the acceptance of the tolerance criteria of the main organs at risk, the heart, and the ipsilateral lung.In this context, the dosimetric treatment plans of 20 breast cancer patients treated at the Radiotherapy Service of Braga Hospital were analyzed. The treatment planning system was the XiO (Elekta) and the dosimetric treatment plans were performed using with 3D-CRT technique (three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy) and the pencil beam algorithm for photon dose calculation.Two approaches to estimate the equivalence of different radiotherapy schedules have been proposed, the equivalent dose at 2Gy per fraction model and the biologically effective dose model. These models showed that the conventional radiotherapy course to 50Gy in 25 daily fractions is clinically equivalent to the hypofractionation course to 42,56Gy in 16 daily fractions.Obtained results showed that the tolerance criteria for the organs at risk, the heart and the ipsilateral lung, referring to the hypofractionation course to 42,56Gy in 16 daily fractions, are more restrictive than the tolerance criteria of conventional regimen. This means that if the same setup and the same dose coverage in the planning target-volume are used, the tolerance criteria for the organs at risk of hypofractionation regiment are more difficult to attain.These results can assist radiation oncologists in the evaluation of radiotherapy prescription doses for breast cancer, in compliance with the principles of radiation protection.
Algorithm to assess neutron HP(10) with estimation of uncertainties using Alnor albedo dosemeters: application in Brazilian nuclear power plants
Authors: Ferreira Max da Silva , Maurício Cláudia Lúcia de Pinho , Silva Everton Rodrigues
Published: February 2022

The Instituto de Radioproteção e Dosimetria (IRD) is implementing an automatic neutron individual monitoring system, which uses albedo dosemeters from the Alnor manufacturer. For practical purposes, the occupational neutron fields have been divided into four application areas, named N1, N2, N3 and N4, as recommended in the German standard DIN 6802-4. For each area, specific Workplace Correction Factor (WCF), as a function of the ratio between photon dose responses measured in the incident and albedo component of the albedo dosemeter (Di/Da), must be used. This study proposes an algorithm for evaluating the photons and neutrons HP(10) values for the Alnor albedo system. It uses WCF × Di/Da curves previously defined by the authors, using MCNPX code simulations of the neutron dosemeter response for several occupational neutron fields. The methodology for calculating all uncertainties involved in the photon and neutron HP(10) assessment is also shown. Before the routine use of this system at IRD, several tests and calibrations are being carried out. This manuscript presents a case study carried out at the Angra I and Angra II power plants in 14 different fields (N1 application area). The results of the Alnor system are compared with those from the albedo system currently in routine use at the IRD. The average value of the ratio between the measurements with the Alnor system and the IRD system was 0.97 for photon HP(10), and 0.84 for neutron HP(10). Considering an expanded uncertainty to 95% confidence level, all results agree with each other.
“To Answer”: Dostoevsky’s Notes and Marks on Letters and Еnvelopes of His Correspondents
Authors: Andrianova Irina
Published: February 2022

F. M. Dostoevsky received a huge amount of correspondence, especially in the 1870s — the time of the publication of the “A Writer’s Diary”. More than 1,600 letters to the writer from over 500 addressees have been preserved. This volume is comparable only to the correspondence of L. Tolstoy in the 1880s — 1890s, responding to which required the help of numerous assistants. Dostoevsky did not have the opportunity to answer all the letters, but tried not to ignore the correspondence from his readers. His work with the received letters is evidenced by the notes and marks (including non-textual ones) made on them. They are systematized in “The Handwritten legacy of F. M. Dostoevsky” (2021) and analyzed in this article. 109 of Dostoevsky's notes were revealed on the letters of his addressees of 1859–1881, three of them for the first time: on the envelopes of letters from O. A. Antipova’s letters of May 7, 1877, from Prince N. N. Golitsyn's of February 9, 1878, and on the sheet from D. A. Insarsky's letter of August 14, 1864. The systematization of the writer's notes and marks on the letters of his correspondents allowed to classify them in three groups. These are records containing information about the addressees and their letters, made by the author of “A Writer’s Diary” immediately after reading the letters; rough drafts of works; records for memory (addresses, lists of personal effects, monetary calculations related to the publication of works). In the process of working on the description of Dostoevsky's notes, the text of some entries was clarified, and mistakes made in the academic “Complete Works” of the writer (the initials of the addressees, the dating of letters, etc.) were corrected. Dostoevsky's notes and marks on the letters of his correspondents reflect his creative process, details of everyday life and publishing activities, and the author's lively dialogue with readers.

Polymorphism of TLR1, TLR4, and SLC11A1 genes in populations of different cattle breeds of Ukrainian selection
Authors: Kulibaba R. , Liashenko Yu. , Ivashchenko O.
Published: February 2022

Aim. To study the specificities of population genetic structure of Ukrainian Black-and-White dairy breed, Ukrainian
Red-and-White dairy breed, and Ukrainian Grey cattle breed by polymorphism of TLR1, TLR4, and SLC11A1 genes.
Methods. The study was conducted using the method of polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length
polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results. The results of the study demonstrated that in all the experimental populations,
the locus TLR4 by mutations 8732G>A, 8834G>C, and 2021C>T was monomorphic, while loci TLR1 (1596G>A)
and SLC11A1 (7400C>G and 7808A>T) were polymorphic. For the TLR4 gene by 8732G>A mutation, only individu-
als with genotype BB were found; by 8834G>C – with genotype GG; by 2021C>T – with genotype CC. By BclI-
polymorphism in the first exon of TLR1 (1596G>A) the A and G allelic variants were found in each experimental
population. The deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium state was revealed for the populations of Ukrainian
Black-and-White and Ukrainian Grey cattle breeds. A considerable excess of heterozygous individuals was fixed in
both cattle populations (31 and 39 % respectively). Considering PstI-polymorphism in exon 11 of SLC11A1 gene,
allelic variants C and G were found for SNP5 (7400C>G), as well as A and T for SNP6 (7808A>T) in all experimen-
tal populations. As for SNP5 (7400C>G), a considerable excess (from 15 to 30 %) of heterozygous individuals was
determined for all experimental groups. Unlike other breeds, there was no excess (Fis = 0,04) of heterozygotes for
SNP6 (7808A>T) in the population of Ukrainian Grey cattle. Conclusions. The parameters of genetic variability in
the different cattle populations of Ukrainian selection by TLR1, TLR4, and SLC11A1 loci were studied. The results
of the study showed the impossibility of using TLR4 locus by 8732G>A, 8834G>C and 2021C>T mutations in the
programs of marker-associated selection of the investigated cattle breeds due to its monomorphic nature. The analysis
of the allele and genotype distribution by TLR1 and SLC11A1 loci (presence of individuals with different genotypes in
all experimental cattle breeds) indicates the possibility of using different allelic variants of these genes in the breeding
programs for the studied cattle populations.

Theoretical and historical perspectives study the logic and dynamics of institutional changes in the deregulation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME). The paper specifically considers the conditionally and nature of institutional changes in socio-economic systems in the context of leading trends and challenges of our time. These processes are designed for SME development policy. The methods of scientific cognition, analysis and synthesis, logical generalization, deductive technique, complex evaluation, graphics, and others are used. Based on the definition of relationships between the basic categories of institutionalism under the influence of economic changes and the clarification of the functional purpose of the institutional environment to create a favourable “microclimate”, appropriate conditions for activity and development, the process of the institutional environment of SME development formation during the 30 years in Ukraine is generalized. The process mentioned above is divided into three periods: the 1st – since 1991, the intensification of institutional changes in SME development policy when the State Committee of Ukraine for Regulatory Policy and Entrepreneurship Development and the Ukrainian Entrepreneurship Support Fund were established; the 2nd – since 1998, when the SME support system was formed and developed directly during 2000–2011; and the 3rd period – since 2014, when there was stagnation and decline of the constructed SMEs development support system, but there were some isolated, unfortunately, chaotic institutional initiatives during 2018–2020. The scientific novelty lies in the reflection of economic changes in the institutional environment of SME development in Ukraine under the influence of the most fundamental structural socio-economic transformations and global factors: globalization, internationalization (1991–1997), innovative development, socialization, intellectualization of the economy (1998–2013), sustainable development, digitalization (2014–2021). The presented scheme of influence allowed generalizing the tendencies under the influence of which the institutional environment of SME development formed and gave the chance of predicting at the expense of what components and from what sources institutional changes can be expected. Practical significance: the recommendations can be used in forming and implementing of the national and regional targeted programs for SME support and development in Ukraine.

Published: February 2022

Background and purpose: An excellent process of hospital quality management system produces useful data for the management in the future decision-making. The problem obtained from the quality management system of X hospital was that the data collectors do not understand the procedure of data collection, thus the data became less complete and less accurate. Routine Data Quality Assessment (RDQA) instrument is recommended to measure the data quality. This study aims to analyze the data quality in the quality management system of X Hospital work unit in Semarang.Methods: Quantitative method was applied in this study using cross-sectional approach. RDQA instrument was used as a model of quality assessment of routine data that can be implemented to evaluate the quality of the collected data. Purposive sampling was used in the selection of informants. This study involved 22 quality managers at level I (the wards) as the informants who conducted the data selection, three quality managers at level II as data collectors, and one quality manager at level III as a data center. The data were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The work units assessed in this study include the outpatient, inpatient and critical units.Result: RDQA instrument was adapted by adjusting the substance of RDQA with the standards of hospital accreditation in Indonesia. The development of indicator 2 focused on the understanding of data collection, while indicator 3 focused on the supervision of data collection, and indicator 5 focused on the staff understanding on the recommendation of quality achievement results. The application of RDQA articulated that the quality control systems did not optimally run, including the lack of understanding of the data collection procedure, non optimal supervision of quality management, not all quality manager conduct data verification properly, not all staff understand the recommendations of the quality achievement results. The highest percentage of the data quality was 93% and the lowest was 72%. In general, the system assessment was 1.5-2.5 which indicated that the data were partially complete/available/ operated.Conclusion: RDQA resulted that the data quality control on the hospital quality management system has not yet to be conducted optimally.

Published: February 2022

Background and purpose: In Indonesia, many studies on the causes of stunting in children have been conducted. However, still few have explored the parental feeding style in relation to stunting. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between parental feeding style and stunting among under-five children in Kulon Progo District, Yogyakarta.Methods: This study used a cross sectional design. This study involved 729 respondents who were the entire population of under-five children in Kulon Progo. Mothers were interviewed about the socio-demographic, economic and parental feeding style that mothers gave to their children using a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed descriptively to identify the frequency distribution of each variable, hypothesis testing with chi square test and multivariable analysis with logistic regression at a significance level of 5% were performed.Results: Of the 729 under-five children analyzed, 37.6% were found to be stunting. The proportion of poor parental feeding style was almost 50%. The finding of this study showed that mother’s occupation (AOR=2.13; 95%CI: 1.26-3.59), family income (AOR=3.56; 95%CI: 2.34-5.42) and parental feeding style (AOR=2.77; 95%CI: 1.97-3.91) have a significant relationship with stunting.Conclusion: The prevalence of stunting is quite high in the study area. Parents with poor parental feeding style are predicted to increase the risk of stunting among under-five children. Family-based interventions that involve parenting styles in child feeding practices should be considered in reducing stunting among children.
Association between empowerment factors and the utilization of long-acting and permanent contraceptive methods among married women in Indonesia
Authors: Artini Ni Nyoman Astri , Martha Evi , Putra I Gusti Ngurah Edi
Published: February 2022

Background and purpose: The use of long-acting and permanent methods (LAPMs) of contraception becomes one of the government’s efforts to ensure the continuity of family planning program. Factors associated with the LAPMs use can be contingent upon the study context or setting that includes socio-demographic, social and cultural norms, and women empowerment factors. This study aims to examine the associations between women empowerment and the LAPMs use.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving 97,316 records of married women aged 15-49 years, retrieved from three rounds of the Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey/IDHS (2007, 2012, and 2017). The dependent variable is the LAPMs use, whereas the main independent variables were women empowerment factors (i.e., educational level, occupational status, participation in household decision-making, attitude toward wife-beating). Adjusted associations between women empowerment and the LAMPs use were examined using binary logistic regression by controlling the influence of socio-demographic variables as potential confounders.Results: About half of women in this study were 35-49 years old and completed primary education. Education level was found to be positively associated with the use of LAPMs. Working women increased the likelihood of using LAPMs by 1.10 (95%CI: 1.03-1.17) times. In addition, those who approved for being beaten by their husband in any circumstance were less likely to use LAPMs (OR=0.91; 95%CI: 0.86-0.97). However, participation in household decision-making was not associated with the LAMPs use.Conclusion: Women empowerment factors that included educational level, occupational status, and the attitude toward wife-beating were associated with the use of LAPMs among Indonesian married women. Therefore, improving women empowerment by increasing women’s educational level, participation in labor force, and reducing women’s vulnerability to domestic violence can increase the uptake of LAPMs.

Application of modern environmentally safe surface hardening technologies during nitrogening
Authors: Nesterov O. , Klimov О. , Tkach D. , Ruban V.
Published: February 2022

Purpose of work. The possibility of using ion-plasma nitriding as an ecologically safe process of surface strengthening to improve service properties of products made of ekonomicalle alloyed ferritic steels was shown.

Research methods. Samples from steel 03Х8СЮ were investigated. Nitriding was carried out on an installation of the ION-20-I2 model. The pressure and temperature of the process were varied to obtain nitrided layers of different morphology. The structure of the nitrided layers was examined with an Axio Observtr.DLM microscope (Karl Zeis, Germany). The phase composition of the hardened layer of experimental steel was determined on the DRON-type diffractometer according to standard methods. Comparative studies of corrosion resistance were carried out in accordance with GOST 9.908-85.

Results. It has been established that the method of ion-plasma nitriding can be used to obtain high-quality nitrided layers on the surface of products made of ekonomicalle alloyed ferritic steels. The examined steel is suitable for nitriding in a wide range of technological parameters: temperature, saturation gas pressure. It was found that with an increase in the nitriding temperature, the number of layers, their size and structure in the formed layers change. The optimal mode of ion nitriding (T = 540 °С, t = 4 years, P = 4 mbar) has been determined, which makes it possible to obtain a structure most suitable for solving the problem posed – increasing the corrosion resistance during operation in corrosive environments. Based on the results of determining the phase composition of the samples subjected to ionic nitriding of surface layers, the following phases were found: a- solid solution based on iron and g¢- (MeFe4N)- solid solution based on the chemical compound of iron nitride FeMe4N. The study of corrosion resistance confirmed the efficiency of ion nitriding of steels: the area of corrosion damage on a non-nitrided sample is 85 %, and on a sample after nitriding – 15 %.

Scientific novelty. The possibility of obtaining nitrided layers of a given composition for economically alloyed ferritic steels by ion-plasma technology using ammonia as a saturating medium has been shown for the first time.

Practical value. The developed ion nitriding technology is applicable for all economically alloyed ferritic steels and has a number of advantages: reduction of the process by eliminating additional depassivation; reducing the initial cost of electricity by reducing the energy consumption of plasma production; ecological safety, which is associated with the possibility of using an anhydrous environment.
Förkroppsligad pedagogisk takt vid lärares spontana berättande
Authors: Henricsson Ola
Published: February 2022

Syftet med studien är att beskriva en lärares spontana berättande och vilka didaktiska innebörder det kan ha. Spontant berättande beskrivs här som en improviserad didaktisk handling med begreppet pedagogisk takt – en lärares kvicka bedömning och spontana handlande, grundat på erfarenhet såväl som känsla, vid oförutsedda händelser i mötet med elever. Ur ett fenomenologiskt perspektiv med fokus på den levda kroppens betydelse analyseras en videoinspelning där en lärare berättar i helklass. I enlighet med kriterier för urval, tidigare analyser av muntligt berättande och för att vara följsam mot fenomenet i tid och rum valdes en lärares berättande ut för djupanalys. I den två minuter långa videosekvensen berättar en lärare, spontant, en anekdot för elever i årskurs sex inom ramen för ämnet teknik. Resultatet visar att lärarens berättande som endast inledningsvis relaterar till ämnet för undervisningen samtidigt har generella didaktiska innebörder då det visar sig som: återhållen undervisning, lyhördhetens oförutsägbarhet och en undervisningens risk.
Os Conceitos de Ajustamentos Ricardianos, Keynesianos e Schumpeterianos e a Questão do Emprego na Economia Brasileira
Authors: TOYOSHIMA SILVIA HARUMI
Published: February 2022

RESUMO O objetivo deste artigo é discutir a relação entre crescimento econômico, progresso técnico e geração de emprego, utilizando conceitos neo-schumpeterianos sobre o processo de ajustes disponíveis para todas as economias. Ele discute as possíveis trocas entre os três tipos de ajustes mais importantes - “Ricardiano”, “crescimento” e “Schumpeteriano” - que representam, de fato, trocas entre crescimento de curto e longo prazo. Com base nessa concepção, discute os possíveis impactos da exploração de cada tipo de ajuste no nível de emprego brasileiro. Além disso, identifica preliminarmente os segmentos produtivos a serem estimulados, a fim de considerar simultaneamente a eficiência econômica e a geração de emprego. A principal conclusão é que, para associar geração de emprego, crescimento econômico e modernização, a economia brasileira deve investir não apenas nos segmentos mais dinâmicos do novo paradigma tecnológico, mas também nos segmentos tradicionais, porque possuem maior capacidade de geração de emprego.
O Modelo de Racionamento de Crédito e a Política Monetária Novo-Keynesiana: Uma Análise Crítica
Authors: HERMANN JENNIFER
Published: February 2022

RESUMO O artigo discute e critica o modelo de racionamento de crédito (CRM) e seu uso para apoiar a abordagem nova-Keynesiana da política monetária. Após analisar o funcionamento do modelo nas diferentes fases do ciclo de negócios, conclui-se que: (i) na fase ascendente, o equilíbrio do racionamento da demanda - que é uma condição para a recomendação da política monetária anticíclica no âmbito do CRM - não é plausível como um fenômeno macroeconômico, mas apenas no nível microeconômico; (ii) na fase descendente, embora o racionamento da demanda seja um equilíbrio plausível, não ocorre pela razão alegada pelo CRM (rigidez da taxa de juros), nem atua a favor do mecanismo de transmissão da política monetária. Essas conclusões implicam a rejeição do CRM como base teórica para a análise da política monetária, bem como da nova abordagem Keynesiana sobre esse tema. Finalmente, argumenta-se que, no nível macroeconômico, a contribuição teórica única do CRM é justificar intervenções “verticais” do governo nos mercados financeiros, por meio de políticas de financiamento para setores ou projetos cujos riscos são mais difíceis de estimar, notadamente, em infraestrutura. setores de infraestrutura, P&D e novas tecnologias.

Published: February 2022

Resumo Este trabalho propõe uma discussão teórica sobre o desenvolvimento positivo por meio do esporte, com foco na aprendizagem de “competências de vida”, que recebem uma atenção crescente na educação do século XXI, e pretende discutir e integrar diferentes modelos existentes com base na teoria social cognitiva (TSC) de Albert Bandura. Para isso, foi descrito o modelo heurístico de Gould e Carson, traçando comparativos com modelos teóricos posteriores. São apresentados aspectos da TSC que possibilitam a percepção de uma unidade teórica entre os diversos modelos, o que pode facilitar e aprofundar a compreensão do fenômeno. Conclui-se que os benefícios do esporte ao desenvolvimento humano não são automáticos e dependem de múltiplos fatores, especialmente dos aspectos cognitivos e relacionais associados a essas práticas. Esses fatores devem ser o foco das intervenções para que as vivências esportivas sejam, de fato, promotoras de um desenvolvimento positivo. A TSC permite integrar os diferentes modelos e pode servir de base para o planejamento de intervenções e pesquisas que promovam a aprendizagem de competências de vida nos esportes.
Uma questão de força? Debates sobre prisões federais e expansão do Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC)
Authors: Duarte Thais Lemos
Published: February 2022

Resumo A proposta deste artigo é analisar as narrativas do poder público e da imprensa sobre os estabelecimentos prisionais federais e, ainda, compreender em que medida essas perspectivas relacionam tais unidades de privação de liberdade às dinâmicas criminais estabelecidas pelo Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) em distintas partes do país. Foram levantados artigos de jornais e documentos públicos, bem como foram desenvolvidas entrevistas semiestruturadas com gestores federais. Embora não tenha havido muitos consensos sobre uma possível relação entre as unidades federais e o fomento à expansão do PCC pelo Brasil, reconheceu-se que as ações estatais em geral ensejam novas dinâmicas criminais. Os órgãos de controle do Estado, como o sistema penitenciário federal, e o PCC configurariam uma nova ordem social nos cárceres de todo o território nacional, independentemente de esses espaços adotarem uma linha mais “forte” ou mais “fraca” do ponto de vista penal.
Reducing hydraulic erosion of surficial sand layer by inoculation of cyanobacteria
Authors: Rabiei Asma , Zomorodian Seyed Mohammad Ali , O'Kelly Brendan C.
Published: February 2022

Biological approaches have captured the attention of researchers regarding the beneficial effects of cyanobacteria inoculation in improving surficial soil stability. However, a gap exists in the literature regarding the impact of inoculation by individual cyanobacteria on stability of sand under intense surface-water erosion. This study assesses the improvements achieved in erosion resistance for biological soil crust (BC) formed on medium–coarse silica sand. Specimen groups were inoculated with Nostoc sp. and Calothrix sp., incubated for 32- or 48 day periods and then tested using an erosion function apparatus (EFA), investigating a wide range of flow velocities (hydraulic shear stresses). The significance of BC attachment to (or detachment from) the specimen container sidewall was also investigated in the EFA testing. Compared with untreated sand, inoculated specimens had a significantly greater erosion resistance that increased with the incubation period, with Nostoc inoculum producing greater reductions in erodibility coefficients (45–75%) compared with Calothrix (16–67%). Contrasting bond structures introduced by Nostoc and Calothrix are highlighted by scanning electron microscopy images that showed long Nostoc filaments were entangled more strongly in sand pore voids compared with short Calothrix filaments. In conclusion, this study supports the idea of using cyanobacteria inoculation as an eco-friendly, cost-benefit and effective technique for mitigating land degradation.
Assessment of alkali-induced heave in soil and its stabilisation using slag
Authors: Mandal Manish Kumar , Paramkusam Bala Ramudu
Published: February 2022

Soil–alkali-interaction results in unexpected heaving and other negative effects of soil properties, which can lead to complete failure of structures. An investigation was carried out on the impact of highly concentrated sodium hydroxide alkali on the heaving behaviour of low-plasticity clay. The effect of ground-granulated blast-furnace slag as a stabiliser for alkali-interacted soil was also investigated. The interaction of alkali with the soil showed heaving up to 5.25% after 30 days, while a slag content of 20% showed maximum suppression of heave. The alkali-interacted soil stabilised with slag was also compared with un-interacted soil mixed with slag. There was a marginal increase in friction angle with an increase in curing period, and a significant increase in cohesion for both. A substantial improvement in unconfined compressive strength was also evident with increased slag content and curing period. The results were supported by microstructural examinations. The application of slag as a liquid-based stabiliser for alkali-interacted soil was also conducted using electrokinetics. Statistical analysis indicated that the curing period was a dominant parameter in affecting the compressive strength of un-interacted soil while, for alkali-interacted soil, slag content was more dominant.

Аннотация. Целью исследования является проведение анализа эффективности использования имеющихся ресурсов для обеспечения устойчивой социально-экономической политики государства. Достижение поставленной цели потребовало решения комплекса задач: сформировать понимание ключевых особенностей функционирования социально-экономической системы, проанализировать агрегированную статистическую информацию на основе различных источников, обосновать взаимосвязь между показателями доходов и расходов граждан, а также темпов инфляции с одной стороны и уровнем жизни населения — с другой.

Методология исследования. В данной статье использованы традиционные методы исследования: системный анализ, дедукция, индукция, ситуационный анализ, аналогия и диалектика.

Результаты исследования. Базовыми факторами, определяющими уровень благосостояния населения, которые в свою очередь отражают качество проводимой в стране социально-экономической политики, являются уровень доходов населения, а также демографическая статистика. Было доказано, что главная задача социально-экономической политики государства — это обеспечение уверенности граждан в завтрашнем дне. Она должна представлять собой комплекс мер, обеспечивающих исполнение естественных прав человека за счёт реального сектора экономики и перераспределения имеющихся средств.

Перспективу исследования на сегодняшний день составляет проблема регулирования и обеспечения социально-экономической политики государства. Она имеет первостепенное значение с точки зрения дальнейших перспектив повышения уровня жизни населения. Данная работа представляет научный интерес для широкого круга специалистов и аналитиков. Помимо этого, информация, представленная в статье, может выступать научной базой для моделирования и прогнозирования приоритетных направлений социально-экономического развития страны.

Аннотация. Целью исследования является изучение процесса формирования системы комплексного исследования приоритетов управления потенциалом инновационной деятельности, а также изучение сложности понятия потенциала инновационной экономики.

Методологическая база исследования представляет собой системный эмпирический и структурно-функциональный подход рассмотрения объекта исследования в виде целостного комплекса взаимосвязанных элементов. К используемым научным методам относится анализ причинно-следственных связей.

Результаты исследования. Авторами определено, что понятие ресурсов как экономической категории нельзя отождествлять с понятием потенциала. В статье показана структура понятия потенциала инновационной деятельности, его элементы и измерения, а также способы формирования человеческого капитала, рассматриваемые как важнейшая составляющая обсуждаемого потенциала. Отсутствие структурированного теоретического обсуждения сущности, смысла и способов формирования потенциала инновационной деятельности — важная проблема всей теории инноваций.

Перспективы исследования заключаются в изучении вопросов измерения инновационного и человеческого потенциала с учетом информационного потенциала в целях реализации потребностей инновационной деятельности на различных уровнях управления.
«ЗЕЛЕНАЯ» ЭКОНОМИКА КАК ФАКТОР УСТОЙЧИВОГО ЭКОЛОГИЧЕСКОГО РАЗВИТИЯ СОВРЕМЕННОГО ГОРОДА
Authors: Майснер Татьяна Николаевна
Published: February 2022

Аннотация. Цель статьи заключается в изучении экологических проблем современных городов, решение которых возможно на основе внедрения модели «зеленой» экономики.

Методология исследования представлена совокупностью следующих теоретических подходов: системный подход, позволяющий рассматривать город как социоэкосистему, устойчивое развитие которой зависит от всех ее элементов; синергетический подход, открывающий возможность для понимания сложного нелинейного характера взаимосвязи и взаимовлияния различных сфер общества; положения современных теорий урбанизации, позволяющие понять эволюцию города, связанную с расширением городской территории и вытеснением природной среды; теория «общества риска», которая позволяет учитывать и систематизировать риски развития современного города; идеи теоретиков «зеленой экономики» и др.

Результаты исследования. Автор обращает внимание на то, что «зеленую» экономику следует рассматривать как новую экономическую модель, которая должна прийти на смену нынешней рыночной модели, где доминируют принципы либеральной идеологии. Развитие «зеленой» экономики кардинально трансформирует инфраструктуру города и способствует появлению экологических городов — экосити. В статье анализируются причины, затрудняющие развитие экосити в России.

Перспективы использования результатов исследования. Результаты исследования могут быть использованы для дальнейшего анализа социально-экологических проблем современных городов, а также для развития современной экологической политики.

Low cost methods for Hydra care v1
Authors: Hyland Callen , DeSantis Jennifer
Published: February 2022

Hydra, is genus of freshwater cnidarian polyp found in freshwater ponds and streams all over the world. Its remarkable ability to regenerate missing body parts, and even its whole bodies from fragments, has made Hydra a model system for regeneration and development for over 250 years. Despite their anatomical simplicity, much about Hydra’s basic biology and extraordinary regeneration caption remains mysterious. The simplicity of caring for and doing experiments on Hydra makes it an accessible subject for undergraduate research, high school lab activities, or even a home hobbyist. This collection of protocols describes low-cost methods for maintaining Hydra cultures, including step-by-step instructions for preparing media, growing brine shrimp for feeding to Hydra, and caring for your Hydra colonies. We’ve focused on equipment that can be found in most high school and college labs, or consumer products that can be purchased online. Experiments on Hydra can be incredibly simple. Much can be learned from dissecting a Hydra and observing its regeneration. Hydra’s response to varying environmental conditions can also be explored in a classroom setting with minimal resources. These simple experiments can be a bridge to cutting-edge molecular biology and stem cell research. Sequencing of the Hydra genome has opened the door for genetic manipulations and large-scale bioinformatics studies. Transgenic lines with fluorescently-labeled cell types and proteins, including neuron and muscle activity reporters, are available.

Published: February 2022

According to WHO, public health problems can be considered chronic if the prevalence of stunting is more than 20%, meaning that stunting is a serious health problem in Indonesia. East Java is a province with a high prevalence of under-five and stunted nutritional status, which is 30%-40%. The Malang Regency is one of 100 priority district/city interventions. To help reduce stunting, the Puskesmas unites the growth and development of children under five and provides care to pregnant women. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there were among the puskesmas programs which included the provision of Vitamin A, the provision of blood-added tablets and the provision of additional food to pregnant women with chronic energy deficiency conditions with the incidence of stunting in Malang Regency. This research is an analytical survey research using secondary data from the Malang District Health Office. The type of sample used was purposive sampling, namely by selecting the Puskesmas with the highest stunting cases (close to 20% or more) so that 10 Public Health Center were obtained as samples and research sites. The results of the analysis showed that there was no relationship between the administration of blood-boosting tablets and the provision of additional food to pregnant women with chronic energy deficiency conditions with the incidence of stunting in Malang Regency. The importance of conducting further research on the causes of stunting in Malang Regency, caused by stunting is a complex factor, involving various factors.
