Published: June 2024

O presente artigo tem como objetivo a construção de um registro, um memorial, acerca do trabalho remoto dos docentes da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo durante a pandemia de COVID 19. Como estratégia metodológica, lançamos mão da história oral e da entrevista de manejo cartográfico. O traçado metodológico a partir da história oral se deu por apostarmos na potência do narrar. Uma pesquisa que desassujeita e inclui o que é dito, acolhe as narrativas no momento da conversa, tomando rumos imprevisíveis, afirmados na sua imanência. A entrevista seguiu um manejo cartográfico, ou seja, ouvir como, a partir de uma experiência situada histórica e culturalmente, docentes se produzem como sujeitos em meio ao trabalho remoto na pandemia de COVID 19. Outro método utilizado foi o da instrução ao sósia que consiste em um método de apreensão dos modos como o trabalho se movimenta e os trabalhadores/as criam estilos sempre renovados de agir. Nessa pesquisa, nos interessou acessar a forma como o trabalho é realizado. As falas dos professores/as nos aproximam exatamente de tudo aquilo que lançam mão para dar conta da atividade. E isso não é pouco. Se consideramos que saúde é normatividade, afirmamos que esses professores/as, apesar de todas as adversidades, conseguem, não sem esforço, criar novas normas de vida para dar conta de um trabalho que ora se apresenta mais solitário, precarizado e cansativo.

India's General Election: Verdict 2024-A Reflection of Public Political Decisions
Authors: Borthakur Palme 
Published: June 2024

2024 has been a year of elections around the world, including the developed nations—the USA, the UK, the European Union and the Russian Federation alongside countries like India, Mexico, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran (the Islamic Republic of), South Africa, Republic of Korea (South Korea), Algeria, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Indonesia, Ghana, Mozambique, Madagascar, Venezuela, (the Bolivarian Republic of), Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea), Taiwan, Syrian Arab Republic, Mali, Sri Lanka, Romania, Chad, Senegal, Cambodia, Rwanda, Tunisia, Belgium, Dominic Republic, Jordan, South Sudan, Czechia (Czech Republic), Azerbaijan, Portugal, Belarus, Togo, Austria, El Salvador, Slovakia, Finland, Mauritania, Panama, Croatia, Georgia, Mongolia, Uruguay, Republic of Moldova, Lithuania Botswana, Namibia, Guinea Bissau and North Macedonia. This editorial is devoted to the verdict of India’s General Election 2024.
The results of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections have trickled in by defying most of the expectations of the exit polls. The graph of the results projected a different picture, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) grabbing 293 seats in the 543-member Parliament. At the same time, the coalition of opposition parties, collectively known as the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA), accomplished 234, which is 38 less than the required majority. As a twist in the election results, the regional parties made significant gains in many states. Congress bagged a strong revival, which was hugely attributed to the Bharat Jodo Yatra and Nyay Yatra under the architect of Mr Rahul Gandhi. Nevertheless, with its allies, BJP-led NDA is on board as Modi 3.0 leads the largest democracy.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

The practical application of hierarchical porous carbon materials in supercapacitors (SCs) is important. Therefore, the development of a simple and sustainable method is a massive challenge. Plane tree seed–based porous carbon (PBC) was synthesized through static air activation with plane tree seeds as precursors. The hierarchical porous structure of PBC was regulated by controlling the reaction temperature. The physicochemical properties of PBC were observed through scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, N2 adsorption–desorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. At an activation temperature of 700°C, the optimized hierarchical porous carbon materials possessed a high specific surface area, an optimal hierarchical porous structure dominated by mesoporous structures, and N and O functional groups for doping. The formation and evolution of hierarchically porous structures during static air activation were described in detail. In a three-electrode system, the optimal PBC exhibited the highest specific capacitance of 187.05 F g− 1 at 0.5 A g− 1. The constructed symmetric SC achieved a high energy density of 11.03 Wh kg− 1 at a power density of 250 W kg− 1 and exhibited remarkable electrochemical stability (100% over 7000 cycles at 10 A g–1). Static air activation has a broad application prospect as a simple and sustainable method for realizing energy storage and conversion.
Preserving and combining knowledge in robotic lifelong reinforcement learning

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Humans can continually accumulate knowledge and develop increasingly complex behaviors and skills throughout their lives, which is a capability known as ``lifelong learning''. Although this lifelong learning capability is considered an essential mechanism that makes up generalized intelligence, recent advancements in artificial intelligence predominantly excel in narrow, specialized domains and generally lack of this lifelong learning capability. Our study introduces a robotic lifelong reinforcement learning framework that addresses this gap by developing a knowledge space inspired by non-parametric Bayesian domain. Additionally, we enhance the agent's semantic understanding of tasks by integrating language embeddings into the framework. Our proposed embodied agent can consistently accumulate knowledge from a continuous stream of one-time feeding tasks. Furthermore, our agent can tackle challenging real-world long-horizon tasks by combining and reapplying its acquired knowledge from the original tasks stream. Our findings demonstrate that intelligent embodied agents can exhibit a capability for lifelong learning similar to that of human beings. The proposed framework advances our understanding of the robotic lifelong learning process and may inspire the development of more broadly applicable intelligence.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate patient preferences when utilizing telemedicine.Methods: A 5-point Likert scale questionnaire was completed by 153 patients at a rural clinic via a convenience sampling method. The survey contained 21 statements encompassing provider confidence, patient-physician rapport, and accessibility factors. Patient responses for those who attended (n = 120) or canceled/rescheduled (n = 33) telemedicine encounters were analyzed using paired difference t-tests and t-tests of correlations between different groups of factors. An ad-hoc method patterned after the least significant differences was applied to the analysis of variance results to evaluate patient-valued factors.Results: Patients surveyed included 82.4% female (n = 127) and 17.6% male (n = 26); 69.3% of them were Hispanic/Latino (n = 106). When reviewing the patient opinion statements, our data suggested a belief that telemedicine encounters were as good as in-person visits (n = 118, x̄ = 4.932) and that such encounters provided them with the confidence to proceed with future, in-person vein treatments (n = 117, x̄ = 4.744). Additionally, patients expressed feeling as though their personal information was safe (n = 117, x̄ = 4.897).Conclusion: Rural patients indicated a preference for flexible encounters and for providers who strive to build trust and rapport when utilizing telemedicine.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

In the context of the corrosion study of aluminium alloy 1100 in contact with Portland cement pastes by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), a quantitative characterization of the capillary porosity of cement pastes was performed by combining the fitting parameter of the electrical equivalent circuit model constructed to analyse the EIS response with a two-phase model derived from the general effective media theory (GEM). The effective resistance of the cement paste entering the GEM is approximated by the resistance of connected capillary pores as provided by the EIS analysis to determine the evolving porosity of cement pastes. The mercury intrusion porosimetry data agree with the porosity results obtained from EIS. The influence of the curing conditions is also studied to extract the impact on the porosity.
Banning new gas boilers as a hedge against the limited availability of renewable gas supply
Authors: VIVIER Lucas , ESCRIBE Célia 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

The low uptake of low-carbon heating systems across Europe has prompted authorities to consider more ambitious measures, including a complete ban on the installation of new fossil fuel boilers. In this analysis, we simulate the impacts of introducing a ban on gas boilers under 11,664 scenarios covering major uncertainties. Taking France as a case study, we find that heat pump adoption shifts gas use from heating demand to electricity generation, which is a more efficient use of low-carbon biogas from a whole-system perspective. Heat pump adoption therefore provides a hedge against short supply of low-carbon gas. We additionally find that widespread heat pump adoption is more effectively achieved through a ban on new gas boilers than through incentives under uncertainty. We therefore demonstrate that a ban is critical to meet carbon neutrality, while achieving a reduction in total system cost in over 75\% of scenarios. Finally, we show that the implementation of the ban, when coupled with the existing subsidy framework, mitigates inequalities among owner-occupied households but generate adverse affect for those in privately rented homes.
Temporal Study of Subway Network Recovery under Resilience Perspective
Authors: Xu Fangdong , Lin Miaopeng , Jiang Hui 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

In order to improve the safety and emergency response capability of urban rail transit network, a resilience maximization-based urban rail transit network recovery model is designed. The shortcomings of the Space-L method in network model construction are compensated by introducing virtual transfer edges to capture the transfer relationships between lines. The travel decisions of passengers under four failure scenarios are considered to ensure that the travel behaviors of individuals in the network are more realistic. By calculating the time of passengers arriving at the failed stations and generating the real-time network, the affected population is more accurately identified, and the accuracy of the network passenger flow allocation is improved. Starting from the optimization of station restoration timing, with the goal of minimizing the cumulative performance loss during the whole process of emergencies, the resilience maximization restoration model is constructed, and the optimal restoration strategy under different failure scenarios is solved by combining the genetic algorithm with the optimized particle swarm GA-PSO algorithm. The experimental results based on the AFC data of Beijing subway network show that the recovery effect of the toughness maximization-based recovery strategy is better than that of the random recovery strategy and the empirical recovery strategy in all the four failure scenarios. Meanwhile, the performance loss during network recovery can be reduced and the benefits can be maximized by increasing the repair team.

Published: June 2024

Abstract

The escalating hazards posed by bacterial infections underscore the imperative for pioneering advancements in next-generation antibacterial modalities and treatments. Present therapeutic methodologies are frequently impeded by the constraints of insufficient biofilm infiltration and the absence of precision in pathogen-specific targeting. In this current study, we have used chlorin e6 (Ce6), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), polydopamine (PDA), and UBI peptide to formulate an innovative nanosystem meticulously engineered to confront bacterial infections and effectually dismantle biofilm architectures through the concerted mechanism of photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT) therapies, including in-depth research, especially for oral bacteria and oral biofilm. Ce6@ZIF-8-PDA/UBI nanosystem, with effective adhesion and bacteria-targeting, affords a nuanced bacterial targeting strategy and augments penetration depth into oral biofilm matrices. The Ce6@ZIF-8-PDA/UBI nanosystem potentiated bacterial binding and aggregation. Upon exposure to near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, Ce6@ZIF-8-PDA/UBI showed excellent antibacterial effect on S. aureus, E. coli, F. nucleatum, and P. gingivalis and exceptional light-driven antibiofilm activity to P. gingivalis biofilm, which was a result of the efficient bacterial localization mediated by PDA/UBI, as well as the PDT/PTT facilitated by Ce6/PDA interactions. Collectively, these versatile nanoplatforms augur a promising and strategic avenue for controlling infection and biofilm, thereby holding significant potential for future integration into clinical paradigms. The original application of the developed nanosystem in oral biofilms also provides a new strategy for effective oral infection treatment.
The dowsing wand. Can the penis development indicate changes in environment for phally polymorphic micro-mollusk species?
Authors: Książkiewicz Zofia , Rybak Michał 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
The study aims to track sexual morph proportions over time and through sharp seasonal changes in temperate climates for sexually polymorphic land snails. The research considers shell dimensions in assessing if size correlates with a morph type. As a study species we selected the two phally polymorphic species Vertigo moulinsiana and Vertigo angustior, belonging to the Vertiginidae family and predominantly found in Europe. They are threatened with extinction and included in Annex II of the EU Habitat Directive.
Results
Findings reveal species-specific responses to seasonal changes, with varying morph proportions over time for V. angustior and V. moulinsiana. Euphallics consistently remain a minority in both species, and hemiphallics are recorded only in V. angustior, specifically in June. Although we did not find any relationship between the morph type and the shell size, we noticed that the shell dimensions significantly varied in snails from different seasons.
Conclusions
The variability observed may be explained by local environmental conditions, including weather and habitat that response to local conditions. Importantly, the various proportion of sexual morphs and shell dimensions may affect the genetic diversity and reproductive traits of land snails species. Thus, results of our study highlights the need of extensive research in terms of the climate crisis and habitat deterioration for the phally polymorphic species.
Large radiative forcing from the 2020 shipping fuel regulation is hard to detect
Authors: Zhang Jianhao , Chen Yao-Sheng , Gryspeerdt Edward , Yamaguchi Takanobu , Feingold Graham 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

A key uncertainty in projecting the rate of future warming derives from regulations on aerosol emissions that involve socioeconomic decisions. Given that a reduction in aerosol cooling unmasks greenhouse gas warming, the 2020 implementation of strict regulations on the sulfur content of ship fuels (IMO2020) presents a natural experiment that can be used to assess the potential impacts of future emission regulations and the detectability of deliberate aerosol perturbations for climate intervention. Using
an ensemble of neural networks trained to capture the natural variability in cloud driven by variations in meteorological conditions, we estimate a substantial global radiative forcing of +0.084 ±0.006 W m-2 from IMO2020-related changes in low-cloud radiative effect. We find a strong masking effect of natural variability on the detectability of this radiative perturbation, manifested as high chances of missed detection and false detection. After removing the masking effect, the true detection-fraction of IMO2020’s radiative perturbation is at most 6%, while cloud microphysical changes have a higher chance of being detected. These results raise concerns that future reductions in aerosol emissions will accelerate warming and that proposed deliberate aerosol perturbations such as marine cloud brightening will need to be substantial in order to overcome the low detectability.
Capacity Fading Mechanisms of Ni-Rich Cathodes in All-Solid-State Batteries: Quantitative Approaches

Published: June 2024

Abstract

All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) comprising Ni-rich layered cathode active materials (CAMs) and sulfide solid electrolytes are promising candidates for highly safe next-generation batteries with high energy densities. However, these ASSBs experience significant capacity fading during cycling owing to surface degradation at the CAM/electrolyte interface and severe lattice volume changes in the CAM, resulting in loss of contact between the particles in the CAM or between the CAM and the electrolyte. In this study, we specifically quantified the capacity fading factors of Ni-rich Li[NixCoyAl1-x-y]O2 (NCA) composite ASSB cathodes as functions of Ni content. Surface degradation at the CAM/electrolyte interface was found to be the main cause of capacity fading in a CAM with an 80% Ni content, whereas inner-particle isolation and detachment of the CAM from the solid electrolyte plays a significant role in capacity fading as the Ni content increases to and exceeds 85%. Although coating the surface and modifying the CAM morphology significantly mitigate surface degradation and internal particle isolation, detachment remains a challenge owing to severe lattice volume changes experienced by Ni-rich CAMs. A comprehensive understanding of the capacity fading mechanisms in ASSBs comprising Ni-rich CAMs is expected to shed light on future research strategies that overcome their limitations.
