Colaborar con Claude Zilberberg: la convergencia semiótica entre la tensividad y las pasiones
Authors: Fontanille Jacques 
Published: February 2024

En su obra Ensayos sobre semiótica tensiva, Claude Zilberberg proponía un capítulo introductorio titulado “¿Qué hay debajo de los semas?” La respuesta de la teoría tensiva es simple: bajo la diferencia entre términos hay discontinuidades graduales que participan en la significación, no de los términos mismos, sino de su diferencia. El acercamiento diferencial de tipo “término a término” y el acercamiento de tipo “grado a grado” dan cuenta, entonces, de dos puntos de vista complementarios.
Greimas se preguntaba, en Semántica estructural, cómo percibimos las discontinuidades en los universos de sentido. En una “percepción síncrona”, la captación sensible de las discontinuidades da lugar a una presentación, de forma gradual, de las dependencias y de las disimetrías, percibidas como tensiones y profundidades, captadas mediante un afecto. Finalmente, la captación tensiva, al asociar varias dimensiones alótopas a la vez, elige la complejidad.
The Role of Identity in the Constructivist School: A Theoretical Study with Application to the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict
Authors: Al Tarawneh Tarek 
Published: February 2024

Objectives: This study aims to scrutinize the role of identity in the constructivist school and the reason for its connection with the constructivist perspective in international relations. It also deals with the impact of the components of the cultural dimension in general and the concept of identity in particular on contemporary international conflicts with application to the Russian- Ukrainian conflict
Methods:. The study relies on the functional constructivist approach because it helps in the comparative study of political systems and it analyzes international relations from the perspective of the social construction of events.
Results:. This study concluded that the Ukrainian crisis confirmed Russia's restoration of its natural position as a major, effective and influential power regionally and internationally. This crisis also reflected the desire of the Russian leadership to correct the imbalance of power with the United States to become a more equal relationship between two partners within the framework of a multi-power system that ends American uniqueness in managing international affairs.
Conclusions: Ukraine is an arena in which strategic accounts are intertwined with historical roots, as well as political and economic factors are intertwined with cultural ones.
An Image of the Village from the Local to the Global in the Novel (Season of Migration to the North) by Al-Tayeb Salih: A Literary Critical Study
Authors: Albalolazzaina Mohamed Musa 
Published: February 2024

Objectives:This highlights on the symbolism of the image of the village in the novel (Season of Migration to the North) by Tayeb Salih, and the reasons that transferred it from the local to the global.
Methods: The study plan depend on the descriptive-critical-analytical approach based on observation and induction, and it came in an introduction, three chapters and a conclusion.
Results: of the study concluded that Al-Tayeb Salih’s connection to his country, and his experience of emigration and his vast culture, enriched and deepened his experience; He produced a mature and purposeful narrative work that excited readers and specialists locally and glob. And the image of the village in the novel is composed of a local image of its social, political, cultural and religious nature, and a Western image on the lips of its children. And that the reasons that brought the image of the village in the novel (Season of Migration to the North) to globalism are: the intellectual and artistic side, place and time, migrations, translation and translators, literary and critical studies, the Internet. And this confirms that globalism stems from locality.
Improvement of contrast ratio between cavitation bubbles and tissue by frequency filtering in triplet pulse ultrasound imaging
Authors: Kuji Shota , Umemura Shin-ichiro , Yoshizawa Shin 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
Bubble-enhanced high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment requires selective imaging of cavitation bubbles to ensure their localization to the target tissue. Previous studies have proposed the ultrasound imaging of cavitation bubbles with a filtering method, which makes bubble extraction by a triplet pulse sequence more selective. The envelope component as well as harmonic components are generated during the nonlinear propagation of an ultrasonic imaging pulse, but the triplet pulse sequence can significantly reduce only the harmonic components, and its selectivity is degraded by the residual envelope component. In this study, the effects of nonlinear propagation at various intensities of imaging pulse and the frequency filtering to obtain better selectivity are investigated for the triplet pulse sequence with a filtering method. The result shows that the imaging pulse intensity is an important parameter that determines the strength of the effect of nonlinear propagation and that the optimal frequency filtering changes according to it.

Published: February 2024

Abstract
Ge-on-Insulator (GOI) is considered to be a necessary structure for novel Ge-based devices. This paper proposes an alternative approach for fabricating GOI based on the Ge-on-Nothing (GeON) template. In this approach, a regular macropore array is formed by lithography and dry etching. These pores close and merge upon annealing, forming a suspended monocrystalline Ge membrane on one buried void. GOI is fabricated by direct bonding of GeON on Si carrier substrates, using an oxide bonding interface, and subsequent detachment. The fabricated GOI shows uniform physical properties as demonstrated using micro-photoluminescence measurements. Its electrical characteristics and cross-sectional structure are superior to those of Smart-CutTM GOI. To demonstrate its application potential, back-gate GOI capacitors and MOSFETs are fabricated. Their characteristics nicely agree with the theoretically calculated one and show typical MOSFET operations, respectively, which indicates promising Ge crystallinity. This method, therefore, shows the potential to provide high-quality GOI for advanced Ge application devices.
Dependence of reaction on vessel position, diameter, and liquid height in the sonochemical reactor with indirect irradiation
Authors: Yasuda Keiji , Yamazaki Takashi , Asakura Yoshiyuki 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
To investigate the sonochemical reaction performance caused by the indirect irradiation at 500 kHz, the glass vessel and a KI aqueous solution were used. Both the ultrasonic power and reaction rate had maximum values at every half wavelength of ultrasound. When the vessel position was adjusted to a larger absolute value of transducer impedance, the reaction rate became higher. The reaction rate and ultrasonic power increased as the vessel position moved closer to the transducer. The reaction rate first increased as the electric power applied to the transducer increased, reached a maximum value, and then decreased. This decrease phenomenon is called quenching of the sonochemical reaction. Before the quenching occurrs, the reaction rate per unit volume almost linearly increased with ultrasonic power density. The effects of the vessel diameter and liquid height on the relationship between the reaction rate per unit volume and the ultrasonic power density were small.

Published: February 2024

Abstract
Nanodiamonds that contain germanium-vacancy centers (GeV-NDs) exhibit significant potential for biomedical and quantum science applications. GeV-NDs with an average particle size of 9 nm were recently fabricated through a detonation process that enables the practical-scale production of detonation NDs (DNDs). However, the optical properties of the GeV centers in the DNDs have not been studied thoroughly. In particular, the luminescence spectrum of these GeV-DNDs had an unassigned peak at 1.98 eV. Here, we investigate the optical properties of GeV-DNDs under various conditions. Although the GeV-DNDs exhibit a zero-phonon line (ZPL) with similar excitation energy dependence and photostability to their bulk counterparts, the ZPL linewidth is broader. The 1.98 eV-peak is attributed to a composite phonon sideband peak. The unique properties of the GeV centers in these small DNDs are explained by enhanced electron–phonon coupling.

Authors: Foube Foube 
Published: February 2024

Power semiconductor devices with adjacent interconnection structures are recognized as the most fragile components of power electronic systems. Condition monitoring addresses this fragility by developing methods and technologies for assessing the component’s state of the health. This paper aims to provide entry points to comprehensive, state of the art references on this complex subject, which has been the subject of an extensive research over the last two decades.
An overview of the current state of the art in condition monitoring of power devices (IGBT, MOSFETs) is given with focus on current induced degradation (active thermal cycling). Degradation indicators and temperature sensitive parameters are discussed, as well as their sensibilities to different parameters. Important practical aspects for the use of these indicators in monitoring system are pointed out. The conclusion provides discussion on industrial application perspective of the presented methods.

Published: February 2024

The analysis of the behaviour of complex mechanical components in order to identify relevant patterns for health monitoring and diagnostics is a complex task. One example of this complexity is the data workflow that can be generated for analysis purposes when a new prototype of an electro-mechanical actuator (EMA) is being designed and experimented. The most accurate way of getting valuable insights during this analysis is by running tests in a controlled environment. In this regard, a test bench can be used to simulate the operating conditions experienced by the actuator during its operational lifetime in an accelerated manner.
Depending on the number and nature of the parameters to be obtained, the prototype’s functionality under study, and the test frequencies and experiment duration, big data challenges may appear (volume, variety, and velocity). The analysis of such data and the development of adequate data-driven algorithms usually involves computations on massive amounts of data, a flexible and automated data pipeline, repeatable and reliable operations, and a collaborative approach. The use of DataOps techniques on a cloud infrastructure can provide the ideal environment for creating an end-to-end integrated architecture which meets these requirements.
This work describes a data-driven information system developed for an electro mechanical actuator on a test bench. It uses a multivariate statistical process control (SPC) and a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) algorithm for detecting and evaluating the evolution of the actuator’s health. The information system runs an automated data pipeline on a cloud platform with signals obtained on the test bench, leveraging DataOps and machine learning techniques for a flexible and scalable data management.

Published: February 2024

Prognostics applications in the automotive industry are growing rapidly and customers have begun to expect this capability. Remaining useful life (RUL) models are an important aspect of a prognostic as they affect both how far in advance and with what confidence failures can be predicted. Model selection and design must include technical considerations such as mathematical complexity and training data availability, as well as business considerations such as implementation plans, constraints, and risks of inaccurate predictions.
This paper compares different RUL models that have been developed for turbo actuators on diesel engines, with the business objective of advising bus fleet customers on preventive maintenance intervals. The design, development, validation, and resulting prediction accuracy of each RUL model is detailed. A selection process is then applied to choose the model best suited to the intended purpose. In doing so, the paper sheds light on strengths and weaknesses of deep learning RUL models over statistical RUL models. The paper also focuses on the state-of-the-art deep learning network “Tabnet” and its results for useful life predictions. Among the different methods, Accelerated Weibull Failure Time model provides better predictions with a concordance of 0.94 and ~15% less error than any other model.

МІКРОБІОМ ШКІРИ ХВОРИХ НА ХРОНІЧНІ АЛЕРГОДЕРМАТОЗИ ПІД ВПЛИВОМ ЛІКУВАННЯ
Authors: Aleksandruk Oleksandr , Aleksandruk Nataliia , Honcharuk Valentyna 
Published: February 2024

Мета роботи. Вивчити вплив типового лікування на стан мікробіому шкіри у дорослих хворих на хронічну істинну екзему (ХІЕ) та атопічний дерматит (АД) із раннім та пізнім дебютом захворювання.
Матеріали та методи. Мікробіом шкіри вивчено у 67 хворих на атопічний дерматит із дебютом хвороби в ранньому дитинстві, 56 хворих з його дебютом в дорослому віці та 62 хворих на хронічну істинну екзему протягом активного лікування та подальшого спостереження.
Результати та обговорення. У 75% хворих на атопічний дерматит раннього початку, 59% хворих із пізнім дебютом АД та 70% хворих на хронічну істинну екзему визначається звичайна за якісним складом, проте підвищена за густиною колонізація шкіри неуражених ділянок. Активна терапія дерматозу і подальша фаза догляду за неї суттєво не впливає. В ділянках, наближених до висипань, посилена колонізація шкіри із високим вмістом стафілококів та нетипової для цих зон грам-негативної паличкової та стрептококової флори визначається в більщості обстежених хворих. Стандартне лікування вирівнює показники густини МШна різних ділянок шкіри у хворих на хронічну екзему та атопічний дерматитом із пізнім дебютом по завершенні активної терапії, у хворих на атопічний дерматит із раннім дебютом - протягом подальшого терміну спостереження.
Висновки. Стандартне системне лікування хворих з даною патологією істотно не впливає на стан мікробіому шкіри. Динаміка мікрофлори в зонах висипу спричинена як місцевими засобами, так і погіршенням умов для бактеріальної колонізації шкіри.
ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ СТАНУ ПРООКСИДАНТНО-АНТИОКСИДАНТНОГО ГОМЕОСТАЗУ У ХВОРИХ НА АЛЕРГОДЕРМАТОЗИ
Authors: Denysenko Olha 
Published: February 2024

Мета роботи. Визначити показники прооксидантної та антиоксидантної систем крові у хворих на алергодерматози та оцінити характер їх змін залежно від нозологічної форми та клінічного перебігу дерматозу.
Матеріал і методи. Обстежено 146 хворих на алергодерматози (екзема, атопічний та алергічний дерматити). Показники прооксидантної системи крові (вміст малонового альдегіду, фракцій продуктів окисної модифікації білків, середньомолекулярних пептидів) та антиоксидантної системи крові (вміст відновленого глутатіону та церулоплазміну, активності глутатіонпероксидази та каталази) визначали за допомогою відомих методик; характер їх взаємо- зв'язку визначали методами варіаційної статистики.
Результати. Встановлено, що у порівнянні з контрольною групою, у хворих на алергодерматози відзначаються достовірні зміни показників як прооксидантної системи крові (збільшення вмісту малонового альдегіду, фракцій окисної модифікації білків та середньомолекулярних пептидів), так і показників антиоксидантної системи крові (зниження вмісту церулоплазміну та відновленого глутатіону). Аналіз значень показників прооксидантно-антиоксидантного гомеостазу у хворих на алергодерматози не виявив їх достовірних змін залежно від гендерних особливостей пацієнтів чи місця їх проживання (в умовах міста чи сільській місцевості). При цьому більш істотні зміни показників прооксидантно-антиоксидантного гомеостазу встановлено у хворих на атопічний дерматит та екзему порівняно з пацієнтами з алергічним дерматитом, а також у хворих із поширеним ураженням шкіри та тривалим (більше 5 років) перебігом захворювання.
Висновок. У хворих на алергодерматози спостерігаються зміни показників прооксидантно-антиоксидантного гомеостазу, що є свідченням зростання активності процесів вільнорадикального окиснення ліпідів і білків на тлі зниження активності чинників антиоксидантного захисту, що призводить до наростання явищ ендогенної інтоксикації та формування оксидативного стресу. При цьому встановлено, що зміни прооксидантно-антиоксидантного гомеостазу у певній мірі залежать від клінічної форми алергодерматозу, його тривалості та поширеності на шкірі, що обґрунтовує диференційований підхід до призначення таким хворим засобів антиоксидантної дії.
Quality of life after pancreatic surgery

Published: February 2024

BACKGROUND
Pancreatic surgery is challenging owing to the anatomical characteristics of the pancreas. Increasing attention has been paid to changes in quality of life (QOL) after pancreatic surgery.
AIM
To summarize and analyze current research results on QOL after pancreatic surgery.
METHODS
A systematic search of the literature available on PubMed and EMBASE was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Relevant studies were identified by screening the references of retrieved articles. Studies on patients’ QOL after pancreatic surgery published after January 1, 2012, were included. These included prospective and retrospective studies on patients' QOL after several types of pancreatic surgeries. The results of these primary studies were summarized inductively.
RESULTS
A total of 45 articles were included in the study, of which 13 were related to pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), seven to duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHR), nine to distal pancreatectomy (DP), two to central pancreatectomy (CP), and 14 to total pancreatectomy (TP). Some studies showed that 3-6 months were needed for QOL recovery after PD, whereas others showed that 6-12 months was more accurate. Although TP and PD had similar influences on QOL, patients needed longer to recover to preoperative or baseline levels after TP. The QOL was better after DPPHR than PD. However, the superiority of the QOL between patients who underwent CP and PD remains controversial. The decrease in exocrine and endocrine functions postoperatively was the main factor affecting the QOL. Minimally invasive surgery could improve patients’ QOL in the early stages after PD and DP; however, the long-term effect remains unclear.
CONCLUSION
The procedure among PD, DP, CP, and TP with a superior postoperative QOL is controversial. The long-term benefits of minimally invasive versus open surgeries remain unclear. Further prospective trials are warranted.
