Visualizing sustainable rainwater harvesting: A case study of Karbala Province
Authors: Abbas Al Ibraheemi , Nile Basim K. , Hassan Waqed H. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The management of rainwater collection in a practical way is a fundamental need for the management of water resources in a manner that is sustainable. The goal of this research is to determine whether or not remote sensing technology is effective in providing data on precipitation for the purpose of locating rainwater collection tank locations in the province of Karbala. Rainfall patterns fluctuate considerably. Remote sensing may not capture variability enough to estimate the rainfall period and location. Sustainable rainfall harvesting requires accurate rainfall timing and distribution. This information is applied in the modeling of hydrological processes, the management of disasters, and environmental research. Following the completion of a geographical study, it has been established that the city of Karbala may be divided into two basic sections. Through the use of estimation, it is possible to more easily identify the region that is ideal for the location of rainwater-harvesting reservoirs and lakes. On the contrary, it is crucial to keep in mind that a location that was chosen based on average rainfall over a period of two years could not be suitable for other time periods. This is an idea that should be kept in mind several times. To put this into perspective, when choosing a location, it is vital to take into consideration the severity of the rainfall as well as the geographical location of the area. Particularly in locations such as Karbala, the implementation of data visualization systems into water management practices has the potential to improve both the efficiency and sustainability of water management methods. The findings of this study show the significance of implementing precise site selection techniques to enhance rainwater collection systems and encourage activities that are environmentally responsible for water management.
Wide variations in Medieval French unambiguous V2 configurations are due to register
Authors: Larrivée Pierre 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Quantitative studies of V2 in Medieval French have produced diverging results with respect to the rate of use of V2 and the informational value of the initial XP. These divergences are hypothesized to relate to the register of investigated texts. The hypothesis is verified by the systematic analysis of unambiguous V2 (with an expressed post-verbal subject) with respect to rates of use and informational value of XPs in three register-differentiated Anglo-Norman prose legal texts from the 1260–1300 period. On rates, unambiguous V2 is three times more frequent in the most formal, legal treatise text than it is in the less formal, court dialogues. On informational value, indications are provided that the XP tends to have a Focus value more often in more formal texts. Register thus impacts the behavior of unambiguous V2 configurations in Medieval French; using data less remote from the primary competence of speakers helps in approaching the effective curve of change.

Дана литологическая характеристика среднедевонского вулканогенно-карбонатно-терригенного комплекса отложений Салаира и Кузнецкого прогиба, погружающегося на севере под мезозойско-кайнозойский чехол Западно-Сибирской геосинеклизы. Преобладают отложения глубокого бассейна, представленные тонко-, мелкозернистыми обломочными разновидностями (с доминированием вулканического материала) и тонко-, мелкообломочными биодетритовыми известняками со слоями оползневых брекчий, а также турбидитами и своеобразными «конгломератовидными известняками» (палеосейсмитами). Реконструированы седиментационные и геодинамические обстановки формирования среднедевонского комплекса. Установлен преобладающий андезитовый состав пирокластики и меньшее значение в осадках кислых и основных вулканических компонентов. В этом регионе определены признаки окраинно-континентальных обстановок Сибирского континента, склона и его основания. Палеогеодинамическая обстановка, согласно седиментационным и геохимическим данным, оставалась в целом одной и той же и соответствовала, по геохимическим данным, условиям островных дуг. Палеоклимат питающей провинции изменялся от семигумидного в позднем эмсе-раннем эйфеле (малосалаиркинское время) к аридному в среднем живете (керлегешское время). Отложения в глубоководном бассейне формировались в окислительной обстановке с хорошей аэрацией вод, исключая эвксинские обстановки в самой нижней части изученного разреза.
Dataset on the Middle Devonian volcanic-carbonate-terrigenous sediments of Salair and the Kuznetsk trough, submerged northward under the Mesozoic-Cenozoic West Siberian geosyneclise (WSG) cover, have been presented. Mainly deep water sediments composed of thin- and fine-grained clastic material (with predominance of tephroids) and thin-, fine-clastic biodetrital limestones with slope slide breccia, as well as turbidites and peculiar “conglomerate-like” limestones (paleoseismites) were found. Sedimentary and geodynamic environments have been reconstructed for the Middle Devonian strata. Predominantly andesitic composition of pyroclastic ashes with fewer values of felsic and basic volcanic components have been determined. The structures related to the continental margin environments of the Siberian continent, the continental slope and its basement have been found. According to sedimentary and geochemical data, the paleogeodynamic environment within the studied region was relatively stable and generally corresponded to the island arc conditions. The paleoclimate of the source area changed from semi-humid in the late Emsian-early Eifelian (Malaya Salairka age) to aridic in the middle Givetian (Kerlegesh age). Basin sediments formed in the deep water oxic environments with good water aeration, excepting euxinic environments found in the lowermost part of studied succession.
Emperor Maximilian’s winged putto leaning on a walker – and on Dürer’s monogram
Authors: Eörsi Anna 
Published: June 2024

In the bas-de-page decoration by Jörg Breu the Elder of a leaf in the Prayer Book of Emperor Maximilian I (fol. 78r), a cheerful winged putto is gracefully propelling a walking frame. Both the rolling structure aiding its first steps and the presence of wings cry out for an explanation, especially as the two are shown together.Unlike most other depictions of a child with a walker, this putto is neither a personification of an age of man, nor a reference to a specific infant. Among its precedents, it is worth mentioning the marginal decorations of prayers of intercession, especially the relevant depiction in the Hours of Mary of Burgundy.The structure of the walker in Maximilian’s prayer book is counterfunctional: its wooden slats together form a capital A and capital D. By modelling the walker on Dürer’s monogram, Jörg Breu was, on the one hand, thanking his mentor for his inspiration, and on the other, fulfilling the wish of Konrad Peutinger – and indirectly of the emperor – that the decoration of the prayer book be completed in the manner commenced by Dürer.While there are also classical precedents for the motif of the walker as a device aiding the acquisition of knowledge, later examples are particularly relevant to the sustentaculum modelled on Dürer’s monogram. In the seventeenth century, the metaphor of the “first step” and the concept of “giving and receiving support” frequently conjured up the theme of master and pupil; at this time, the child learning to walk with the aid of a walker was repeatedly alluded to in the context of the study and practice of art. This notion also comes across in the etching by Rembrandt known as ‘Het Rolwagentje’: here too, learning to walk independently refers to the process of mastering art, with the obligatory first steps being to practise drawing nudes and to copy the works of the master.In the depiction of the putto, its hesitant steps imply slowness, while its wings suggest speed. This ambivalence is also the essence of the adage festina lente, which was of particular relevance to Emperor Maximilian; the theme was probably suggested by Peutinger. Other references to the emperor are the figure of Hercules stepping on a snail, in the lower right margin of the same sheet, and the crane depicted on its verso.

Published: June 2024

AbstractBackgroundChanges in brain structural connections appear to be important in the pathophysiology of substance use disorders, but their role in behavioral addictions, such as gambling disorder (GD), is unclear. GD also offers a model to study addiction mechanisms without pharmacological confounding factors. Here, we used multimodal MRI data to examine the integrity of white matter connections in individuals with GD. We hypothesized that the affected areas would be in the fronto-striatal-thalamic circuit.MethodsTwenty individuals with GD (mean age: 64 years, GD duration: 15.7 years) and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) underwent detailed clinical examinations together with brain 3T MRI scans (T1, T2, FLAIR and DWI). White matter (WM) analysis involved fractional anisotropy and lesion load, while gray matter (GM) analysis included voxel- and surface-based morphometry. These measures were compared between groups, and correlations with GD-related behavioral characteristics were examined.ResultsIndividuals with GD showed reduced WM integrity in the left and right frontal parts of the corona radiata and corpus callosum (pFWE < 0.05). WM gambling symptom severity (SOGS score) was negatively associated to WM integrity in these areas within the left hemisphere (p < 0.05). Individuals with GD also exhibited higher WM lesion load in the left anterior corona radiata (pFWE < 0.05). GM volume in the left thalamus and GM thickness in the left orbitofrontal cortex were reduced in the GD group (pFWE < 0.05).ConclusionsSimilar to substance addictions, the fronto-striatal-thalamic circuit is also affected in GD, suggesting that this circuitry may have a crucial role in addictions, independent of pharmacological substances.

Niedziela w świetle ksiąg pokutnych
Authors: Story Marek 
Published: June 2024

Księgi pokutne, które powstały w epoce późnej starożytności chrześcijańskiej i wczesnego średniowiecza, są świadectwem kształtowania się praktyki pokutnej w Kościele. Celem artykułu, jest odpowiedź na pytanie, jaką rolę w życiu poszczególnych wyznawców Chrystusa odgrywała niedziela i jak przeżywano ten dzień w świetle wspomnianych ksiąg pokutnych. Czy w XXI w., kiedy to Dzień Pański przez wiele osób, które poprzez sakrament chrztu zostały włączone do wspólnoty Kościoła, traktowany jest często wyłącznie jako dzień wolny od pracy czy też okazywana jest wyłącznie troska o to, co cielesne a nie duchowe, czytając księgi pokutne możemy z nich czerpać wiedzę w odkrywaniu sensu niedzieli, celu jej świętowania i jej znaczenie dla życia chrześcijańskiego i ludzkiego?
Kto mówił o Bożej miłości w XVIII wieku? Jezuici z Lublina, Krasnegostawu i Łaszczowa w szerzeniu kultu Serca Pana Jezusa
Authors: Świta Amadeusz 
Published: June 2024

Artykuł zawiera analizę prozopograficzną XVIII-wiecznych prefektów Bractwa Serca Jezusowego z jezuickich kolegiów w Lublinie i Krasnymstawie oraz rezydencji w Łaszczowie. Na podstawie katalogów osobowych tzw. krótkich (catalogus breves) oraz trzyletnich (catalogus triennalis), zidentyfikowano łącznie czterdziestu siedmiu kapłanów, którzy podjęli misję szerzenia kultu Serca Jezusa. Uwagę zwraca ich wysoka mobilność. Większość z nich wskazaną posługę pełniła jedynie raz w ciągu swojego pobytu w zakonie. Analiza katalogów wykazała również, iż opiekunem tego bractwa mógł być każdy kapłan niezależnie od wieku, stażu w Towarzystwie Jezusowym lub wykonywanych zadań. W Lublinie i Krasnymstawie większość prefektów Bractwa Serca Jezusowego stanowili młodzi nauczyciele, w Łaszczowie zaś jezuici posługujący na polu duszpasterstwa tradycyjnego.

Authors: Маляревич Д.В. 
Published: June 2024

Современный информационный мир создает новые технологии, которые ранее казались возможными только в научно-фантастических фильмах и книгах, стали реальностью. Появление генеративных нейросетей, таких как, например ChatGPT создали проблемную ситуацию в научном сообществе и образовании, которая заключается в возможности этичного использования продуктов нейросетей в научной работе. В отечественном и зарубежном интеллектуальном пространстве возникла проблемная ситуация, которая не позволяла определить место и возможные действия, применимые в научной деятельности. Целью статьи является рассмотреть проблемное поле взаимодействия научного сообщества и искусственного интеллекта и предложить вариант их успешного взаимодействия. Актуальность подобного исследования обусловлена всплеском общественной и научной дискуссии о влиянии искусственного интеллекта и нейросетей в деятельности человека. В рамках данной статьи рассматриваются истоки появления генеративных нейросетей и их влияние на человеческую деятельность, в том числе и научную. В статье дается обзор и критика философских программ, которые рассматривают нейросети как проблему современному обществу, как делает это Н. Хомски, а также предлагается проект вписывания нейросетей и искусственного интеллекта в научный дискурс, опираясь на методологию Б. Латура и акторно-сетевой теории. В работе отстаивается позиция, позволяющая корректную работу и использования продуктов нейросетей в научной работе как инструмента. В качестве вывода исследования можно считать попытку вписывания феномена нейросетей в акторную сеть науки, позволяющем производить исследования, а также упростить бюрократические условности социального института науки.

Disparity in temporal and spatial relationships between resting-state electrophysiological and fMRI signals
Authors: Tu Wenyu , Cramer Samuel , Zhang Nanyin 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Resting-state brain networks (RSNs) have been widely applied in health and disease, but the interpretation of RSNs in terms of the underlying neural activity is unclear. To address this fundamental question, we conducted simultaneous recordings of whole-brain resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) and electrophysiology signals in two separate brain regions of rats. Our data reveal that for both recording sites, spatial maps derived from band-specific local field potential (LFP) power can account for up to 90% of the spatial variability in RSNs derived from rsfMRI signals. Surprisingly, the time series of LFP band power can only explain to a maximum of 35% of the temporal variance of the local rsfMRI time course from the same site. In addition, regressing out time series of LFP power from rsfMRI signals has minimal impact on the spatial patterns of rsfMRI-based RSNs. This disparity in the spatial and temporal relationships between resting-state electrophysiology and rsfMRI signals suggests that electrophysiological activity alone does not fully explain the effects observed in the rsfMRI signal, implying the existence of an rsfMRI component contributed by "electrophysiology-invisible" signals. These findings offer a novel perspective on our understanding of RSN interpretation.
Effect of manufacturing processes on the natural frequency, surface roughness and dimensional tolerances of GCI brake discs
Authors: Awe Samuel A. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Automotive component manufacturing involves various processes that can affect the performance of components. Cast articles, such as brake rotors made from gray cast iron (GCI), often have residual stresses owing to cooling variations during solidification. These stresses can cause significant material property degradation and compromise geometric tolerance requirements. Residual stresses can distort GCI rotors during machining and FNC processing when the rotors are heated above the stress-relief temperature, resulting in disc thickness variation (DTV) and increased vibrations during braking owing to lateral runout (LRO). Thermal processing through stress-relieving operations can help eliminate or reduce the residual stresses. This study examined the effects of stress-relief (SR) heat treatment on the natural frequency, damping properties, surface roughness, and geometric tolerances of gray cast iron brake rotors before and after FNC processing. The results indicated that brake discs of similar sizes exhibited no notable difference in their mean resonant frequencies, regardless of whether they underwent prior treatment before FNC processing. The post-FNC damping Q-factor of the brake discs was generally lower than the pre-FNC Q-factor, regardless of disc size and previous treatments. Analysis of the data from the post-FNC discs revealed that the SR discs displayed significantly higher average DTV values (6.3%) than the NA discs, regardless of disc size. The study findings suggest that the surfaces of the FNC-treated discs exhibited increased roughness, regardless of whether they underwent stress-relieving or natural aging before FNC processing. The surface roughness of all treated discs after FNC exceeded the specified Ra value of 2.5 µm. Additionally, FNC processing of stress-relieved discs resulted in an LRO improvement of 30–42% compared to their naturally aged counterparts.
Monitoring Forest Biodiversity in the Face of Urban Proximity: A Case Study in Nirjuli Highlighting the necessity for Ex-situ Conservation Imperative

Published: June 2024

Abstract

A verdant plot of land in Nirjuli, Papum Pare district of Arunachal Pradesh, is home to an impressive array of biodiversity. Within this modest expanse, 156 species of flowering plants, representing 129 genera and 57 families thrive astoundingly. Notably, 11 of these species are only found in North East India, with five (Amomum arunachalense, Boeica arunachalensis, Henckelia collegii-sancti-thomasii, Pseuderanthemum arunachalense and Rhynchothecum nirjuliense) of them being endemic to this particular area only. Regrettably, the relentless march of urbanization and rapid encroachments of human settlements has led to the extinction of its once-thriving microhabitats. This lamentable tale is not unique to this plot alone, it also applies to many other regions across the state. Faced with these alarming circumstances, ex-situ conservation efforts are imperative to safeguard these irreplaceable bioresources.
LGG Promotes Activation of Intestinal ILC3 through TLR2 Receptor and Inhibits Salmonella Infection in Mice
Authors: Wang Junhong , Gao Ming , Wang Jiarui , Zeng Yan , Wang Chunfeng , Cao Xin 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Salmonella is a foodborne pathogen that causes disruption of intestinal mucosal immunity, leading to acute gastroenteritis in the host. In this study, it was discovered that infection with Salmonella Typhimurium (STM) results in a significant decrease in the abundance of Lacticaseibacillus in the intestines of mice, while the secretion of IL-22 by ILC3 is significantly increased. Feeding Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) effectively alleviated the infection of STM in the mouse intestines. Experiments using TLR2−/− mice revealed that TLR2-expressing dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial for LGG's activation of ILC3. Subsequent in vitro experiments showed that heat-killed LGG (HK-LGG) could promote DCs to secrete IL-23, which in turn further promotes the activation of ILC3 and the secretion of IL-22. Finally, organoid experiments further verified that IL-22 secreted by ILC3 can enhance the intestinal mucosal immune barrier and inhibit STM infection. This study demonstrates that oral administration of LGG is a potential method for preventing STM infection, providing a theoretical basis for the development of new intestinal health modulating products and treatment strategies.
