Geostatistical soil mapping is important for determining spatial distribution of soil parameters. This study was conducted to assess soil spatial distribution of the Horticultural Research Station, Rajikot, Jumla, Nepal. The total 27 samples were collected randomly at a depth of 0-20 cm by using soil sampling auger. A GPS device was used for determination of geographical position of soil sampling points. The collected samples were analyzed following standard analytical methods in the laboratory of National Soil Science Research Centre, Khumaltar. The Arc-GIS 10.1 software was used for the mapping spatial distribution of various soil parameters. The observed data revealed the structure was sub-angular blocky and granular, whereas colour were dark brown to dark grayish brown and dark yellowish brown. The sand, silt and clay content were ranged 24.40-72.10%, 19.40-63.10% and 6.20-14.50%, respectively and categorized loam, sandy loam and silt loam in texture. The soil pH was slightly acidic to moderately alkaline (5.01-8.06), and very low available sulphur (0.59-2.41 mg/kg) and very low to low available boron (0.04-0.87 mg/kg). Moreover, very low to medium available manganese (2.18-13.46 mg/kg), very low to very high available iron (4.50-138.58 mg/kg), and low to medium available magnesium (7.20-177.60.53 mg/kg) and zinc (0.26-1.66 mg/kg). Similarly, medium total nitrogen (0.09-0.22%), medium to high organic matter (1.71-6.26%) and available calcium (1200-3144 mg/kg), medium to very high available phosphorus (3.71-82.4 mg/kg) and potassium (59.37-173.05 mg/kg). Correspondingly, high to very high available copper (0.78-4.20 mg/kg). The determined soil test data can be used for sustainable soil management as well as developing future research strategy in the farm.

This experiment was conducted in the farmer’s field at Khajrauta, Gadhawa-4, Dang, Nepal to evaluate the effect of integrated nutrient management on growth and yield of cauliflower as well as their residual effects on soil properties. The cauliflower variety silvercup-60 was grown under eight different treatments; T1: 50% N through RDF + 50% N through FYM; T2: 50% N through RDF + 50% N through PM; T3: 50% N through RDF + 50% N through VC, T4: 50% N through RDF + 25% N through FYM + 25% N through PM; T5: 50% N through RDF + 25% N through VC + 25% N through PM; T6: 50% N through RDF + 25% N through VC + 25% N through FYM; T7: 50% N through RDF + 25% N through VC +25% N through FYM; T8: 50% N through RDF + 50% N through FYM,VC and poultry manure. The experiment was laid out in RCB design with three replications. The result revealed that the highest plant height (36.40 cm), number of leaves (15), plant spread (31.72 cm), leaf area (526.5 cm2), curd weight (207.3g) and curd yield (12.85 t/ha) were found under 50% N through RDF +50% N through VC. The root length, root diameter and root density were better under all INM treatments as compared to 100% N through RDF. INM treatments showed lesser bulk density, lesser particle density, greater infiltration rate and greater organic matter content than application of 100% N through RDF. Soil total nitrogen was increased in all INM treatments while soil available phosphorus decreases in all treatments except 100% N trough RDF and 50% N through RDF +50% N through PM. Thus, farmers are suggested to apply 50% N through VC along with 50% N through RDF to increase cauliflower yield.

Published: November 2020

Low plant population and inadequate fertilizer application are constraints for maize production among farmers in Nepal. In order to identify the integrated effects of plant density and fertilizer dose for production of hybrid maize, series of on station experiments were carried out at Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal using strip plot design with three replications during winter seasons in two consecutive years 2016/17 and 2017/18. Two promising Nepalese hybrids namely RML-95/RML-96 and RML-86/RML-96 were taken as vertical factor whereas five densities viz. 55,555 ha-1(D1), 66,666 ha-1 (D2), 77,519 ha-1 (D3), 87,719 ha-1 (D4) and 98,039 ha-1 (D5) in combination with two doses of NPK fertilizers i.e. recommended and rational as horizontal factor. Recommended dose of NPK for maize was 120:60:40 kg ha-1 and the rational doses for above mentioned densities were calculated based on bench mark of fertilizer recommendation for 53,333 plants ha-1. Derived rational doses of NPK for D1, D2, D3, D4 and D5 were 125:63:42, 150:75:50, 174:87:58, 197:99:66, 221:110:74 kg ha-1 respectively. Genotypic variation of two tested hybrids for growth, yield attributes and grain yield were found statistically similar. However, planting the hybrids in various densities and fertilizer doses significantly influenced grain yield ranging from 5.63 to 7.91 t ha-1. Significantly higher grain yield (7.91 t ha-1) and benefit cost ratio (2.21) were observed when plant population was maintained at 77,519 ha-1 with fertilizer dose 174:87:58 NPK kg ha-1. Applying fertilizer as rational dose enhanced the yield up to the density of 77519 plants ha-1 then the yield gradually declined as the density increased. Whereas recommended dose of fertilizer with increasing plant density from 55,555 to 87,719 ha-1 had statistically similar yield and declined more at 98039 ha-1. The present recommended dose of fertilizer application is inadequate for higher plant density to increase the grain yield of hybrid maize
Post-exercise hot water immersion elicites heat acclimation responses in endurance and recreational athletes. A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Martin Jack Paul 
Published: November 2020

Aims
This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the effectiveness of heat acclimation (HA) via hot water immersion protocols and their effect on time trial (TT) performance, heart rate (HRE, HRM and HRTT), rectal temperature (Tre), Rate of perceived exertion (RPE), psychological stress index (PhSI), thermal comfort (Tcomf), thermal sensation (Tsen) and maximum oxygen uptake (Vo2max).
Methods
Pubmed, Scopus, Sportdiscus and Web of Science databases were used alongside the grey matter sites Google Scholar and Researchgate. The databases were then searched for randomised control trials and mixed-method design studies. Two RTCs, six repeated measure design studies and one randomised crossover design study were included after screening a total of 50 titles and 28 full-text articles. Sample sizes range from 1 - 13 with all participants having not participated in any form of heat training 6 months before their inclusion in the study.
Results
The mean difference (MD) for Heart rate (HR) was -9.1125 BPM (95% CI p = 0.026) and was considered to be statistically significant. The MD for Rectal temperature (Tre) effect size was -0.3814 Tre (°C) (95% CI; p = 0.05). The MD for sweat rate was 0.085; (96% CI; p = 0.0179)
The changes in RPE, PhSI, Tcomf and Tsen were too small to be considered statistically significant. There was no significant difference between pre and post HA for Vo2max and PV.
This meta-analysis implies that HA via HWI may improve tolerance to discomfort during heat exposure and thus subsequently improve physical performance during exercise in hot conditions.
Conclusion
The primary finding of this meta-analysis is that athletic performance is improved with post-exercise hot water immersion heat acclimation training.
HWI HA protocols should focus on the following guidelines:
40-50 minutes of submaximal exercise (>65% of Vo2max) should be followed directly (within 10 minutes) by 40 minutes of hot water immersion at 40°C with the individual immersed up to their neck.
The HA protocol should last between 6-9 days with a single bout of HWI every day for this period.
CURRENT STATE AND PROSPECTS OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN KYIV CITY, UKRAINE
Authors: Sigal O. , Pavliuk N. 
Published: November 2020

The aim of this paper is to determine upcoming trends for use of the energy potential of municipal solid waste in Kyiv city, Ukraine. The current state and development prospects of this area of waste management is considered. This article presents the approaches to the use of energy potential of municipal solid waste in Poland. It is demonstrated that the amount of Waste-to-Energy Plant in Poland has been growing dynamically after 2015. This approach is consistent with the goals set by the National Waste Management Strategy in Ukraine. An analysis of the energy potential of municipal solid waste in Kyiv showed that the energy efficiency of mixed solid waste incineration differs slightly from incineration of RDF combined with biogas. The main factors affecting the economic efficiency of thermal treatment of MSW are capital costs of the construction of plants with a high-quality system for flue-gas cleaning, operating costs of energy production and the cost of raw materials. Combined mixed waste incineration at Waste-to-Energy Plant entails only capital costs. The introduction of the technology of mechanical and biological treatment of MSW requires additional capital costs of the construction of MBT systems. Operating costs of the production of RDF and biogas increase fuel costs. It has been demonstrated that the most appropriate approach for burning of MSW in Kiev is the construction of a Waste-to-Energy Plant. The discrepancy between the amount of MSW produced in Kyiv city and the statistical population of the last is shown, which confirms that a significant number of unregistered residents live in the capital.

The use of sound waves to study the integrity of various metal structures is the most relevant method. The relevance is traced, in particular, in the ease of conducting such experiments, as well as its cheapness. The design of various parts requires the use of modern computer technology, which, using a mathematical apparatus that describes the process, allows you to determine the actual characteristics of the material to determine durability. This approach makes it possible to effectively create design solutions in order to create new parts and upgrade existing materials to extend their service life.
The purpose of this work is to build mathematical models of homogeneous wave processes and their analysis in the form of computational experiments to control the passage of sound signals through the surface of the studied materials of objects. This approach is used to determine the influence of geometric parameters of defects in the form of cracks through which the signal passes, on its characteristics, which it describes after passing through these defects to the signal receiver, in particular, is the amplitude and frequency.
For computational experiments, a point exciter of harmonic oscillations and a point receiver were chosen, which are located on different sides relative to the defect of a simple geometric shape. It should be noted that even minor defects affect the amplitude of the received signal, which passed through such defects. When a signal passes through defects of a simple geometric shape, the amplitude of such a signal decreases by 5–8 times and the average frequency decreases by 2–3 times.

Published: November 2020

The principles of modeling heat and mass transfer and hydrodynamics of flows in porous media using the lattices Boltzmann method are considered. The methodology for implementing the Darcy law for the lattices Boltzmann method is shown.
In contrast to traditional numerical schemes based on discretization of continuous medium equations, the lattices Boltzmann method is based on microscopic models and mesoscopic kinetic equations. The fundamental idea of the lattices Boltzmann method is to build such simplified kinetic models that include the existing physics of microscopic or mesoscopic processes so that the macroscopic averaged properties correspond to the required macroscopic equations. The main premise of using this simplified method is that the macroscopic dynamics of a fluid is the result of the collective behavior of many microscopic particles of the system.
There are two approaches to modeling porous media using the lattices Boltzmann method. The first of them consists in modeling the spatial structure of the simulated system. Therefore, no additional factors need to be considered. The second approach is that the integrated characteristics of the porous medium (Darcy and Forheimer laws) are used to take into account the effect of porosity on the flow.
The purpose of this paper is to show the realization of the linear law of hydrodynamic drag (Darcy) in porous media for the lattices Boltzmann method. Usually, the main goal of direct modeling is to determine the integral characteristics of a porous medium.
The work considers the flow of fluid through a porous channel, which is formed between two flat walls. A method for implementing the Darcy law in the lattices Boltzmann method is shown.
This work will help to simulate the heat transfer and hydrodynamics of flows in porous media without the use of commercial packages.

Published: November 2020

Numerical research of high-temperature corrosion of steel blades of the swirler of a pulverized coal burner of the TPP-312 boiler in real conditions of its operation is carried out. Data on the dynamics of oxidation of the blade surface for two steels and different operating conditions of the burners were obtained. The results of the calculation allow a reasonable assessment of the service life of the blades of the burner device. Corrosion rate calculations were performed based on the results of computer simulation of pulverized coal combustion in the boiler volume with subsequent determination of the temperature field on the blade surface.
The corrosion dynamics was determined using the experimental oxidation constants of steel given in the literature. Data were obtained for two types of low-carbon steel, two different modes of burner operation, for the number of blades 8 and 24, and for different distances of burner blades from the embrasure of the boiler furnace, a total of 16 different variants were calculated.
Calculations have shown that with increasing the distance of the blades from the embrasure of the furnace, corrosion is significantly reduced. The highest corrosion, which in its absolute value is comparable to the thickness of the blade, occurs for the disconnected burner with blades from Art. 3. The lowest corrosion occurs for the working burner with blades made from steel 20 (reduction of corrosion by 4 times), and for the disconnected burner this dependence is much smaller (reduction of corrosion by 30… 40%).
