Published: March 2023

Nowadays we witness numerous partnerships and projects of national and international scope around active training, using digital tools and based on co-creation processes between different partners, to obtain more creative and appropriate processes to respond to current and future scientific, academic and professional challenges. This article presents the participation of a group of professors from Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal (IPS) in the DEMOLA® approach to be trained as facilitators. We present the objectives, the formation of the teams and the established work methodology, and the application of this methodology adapted to the curricular unit of Process Optimization of the Master of Biological and Chemical Engineering.
We briefly describe the main phases that constitute the development of the project within the scope of IPS and the obtained results from the analysis of all components (student training, professors, challenges with companies/organizations and perceptions of the whole team).
We emphasize the development of instrumental skills (Canva, Miro, PESTLE, Portfolio); scientific/ pedagogical skills (Teamwork, Multiprofessional Approach, Co-creation Processes, Design Thinking, Research, Facilitation, Disruptive Thinking and Co-construction, among others); and “win-win” situations, or rather “learn-learn” between facilitators and students, innovation, intergenerational, sustainability and freedom of thought.
A Comparison of Femoropopliteal Block versus Spinal Anesthesia for Malleolar Surgeries
Authors: Sugathan Reshma , Mathews Reeba Mariya , PG Venugopalan 
Published: March 2023

Objectives
Surgery for malleolar fractures is associated with severe pain. Ultrasonography-guided nerve blocks have quality, precision, and drug dose reduction but are not preferred over spinal anesthesia. We have conducted a study to compare the effectiveness of femoropopliteal block with spinal anesthesia.
The aim of this study was to compare onset, duration, and hemodynamic variability and total analgesic requirement of femoropopliteal block with spinal anesthesia.

Material and Methods
Preoperatively patients were divided into two groups (30 in each): Group 1—patients receiving spinal anesthesia with 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine; Group 2—patients receiving 15 mL in popliteal block and 5 mL in femoral block of 20 mL 0.5% bupivacaine with 8 mg dexamethasone. Onset, duration, hemodynamic changes, and postoperative analgesia requirements were monitored.

Results
Mean onset of sensory blockade in group 1 and 2 was 3.83 ± 0.92 and 12.68 ± 3.03 minutes (p-value <0.001.) and motor blockade in group 1 and 2 was 5.36 ± 1.7 and 12.68 ± 3.03 minutes (p-value <0.01), respectively. Mean duration of analgesia in group 1 and 2 was 3 ± 1.31 and 20.2 ± 4.7 hours, respectively. None of the patients in group 2 and 3% in group 1 had hypotension and bradycardia (p-value > 0.05). The mean dose of morphine required in group 1 and 2 was 20.3 ± 2.1 and 3.56 ± 0.02 mg in 24 hours (p-value < 0.001), respectively.

Conclusion
Femoropopliteal block was slower in onset but produced longer postoperative analgesia with markedly reduced opioid consumption.

Published: March 2023

Context Cumin is a common spice used for enhancement of flavour. Its preservative potential as a natural antioxidant and antimicrobial agent in meat model system might extend its use as an alternative to synthetic/chemical preservatives, which are widely used in meat products. Aims The present study aims at exploring cumin essential oil as a natural preservative in meat model system. Methods Four groups consisting of a control (C) and treatments (T0.5, T0.75 and T1.0) with added cumin essential oil were prepared as C, control without cumin oil, T0.5 with 0.50% cumin oil w/w; T0.75 with 0.75% cumin oil w/w and T1.0 with 1.0% cumin oil w/w and were stored at refrigeration for 12 days in aerobic packaging. The effect of cumin oil on physicochemical, antioxidant, lipid oxidation, microbial and sensory quality of meat emulsions were analysed on every third day. Key results The results showed that pH, titratable acidity, emulsion stability and extract release volume values were higher (P < 0.05) in oil-treated groups. Total phenolic content (TPC), 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS+) radical scavenging activity (ABTS) % inhibition value were also higher in meat emulsion with added cumin oil treated groups than in control, and free-radical scavenging efficacy increased in dose–dependent manner. The meat emulsions added with cumin oil evinced a lower peroxide value, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) and free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations than in control. The T1.0 of all showed (P < 0.05) a lower rate of microbial proliferation standard plate count (SPC), psychrophilic count, coliform count and yeast and mould (Y and M) than did other groups. Sensory panelists rated T0.75 comparatively higher for colour and appearance and flavour than they did T1.0, T0.5 and control. Conclusions It could be concluded that with inclusion of cumin oil at 0.75% level in meat emulsion, the physicochemical quality and antioxidant capacity improved significantly, while lipid oxidation and microbial proliferation decreased together with acceptable sensory attributes. Implications Increasing harmful effects of chemical preservatives and growing consumer-health concerns have boosted the demand for clean label or natural preservatives. With growing market of ‘ready to cook’ meat products, good preservation with cumin essential oil would enhance its consumer appeal and marketability.
As if, as though, and like in Canadian English
Authors: Brook Marisa 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
This article traces the history of the minor complementisers as if, as though,
and like (when they follow evidential verbs such as seem and look) in Canadian
English. By the 21st century, both as if and as though were rare in Canada, while
like appeared to have become popular (López-Couso and Méndez-Naya
2012b). The Victoria English Archive (D’Arcy 2011–2014,
2015; Roeder, Onosson, and D’Arcy 2018)
is used to map out the change in a combination of synchronic and diachronic spoken data. Results show that as if
and as though are unusual even in the earliest speakers, which puts spoken Canadian English at odds with
contemporaneous writing (Brook 2014). However, this unexpected register difference may
explain why the complementiser like caught on in North American dialects of English sooner and more readily than
in the United Kingdom – where a robust as if and as though in speech would have remained
barriers.
The pragmatics of alternative futures in political discourses
Authors: Basarati Ali , Rezaei Hadaegh , Amouzadeh Mohammad 
Published: March 2023

AbstractWe shall concentrate on how the construction and modality system of alternative futures in political discourses are influenced by the construal of past-to-present threats and preemptive politics. UsingDunmire’s (2005)proposed framework and further explorations byCap (2020)on the subject, we approach twenty of Trump’s speeches on Iran, from 2017–2020. Our analyses indicated that the construction of alternative futures is modified by the evaluations of Iran’s past-to-present status and the politics of preemption. This relationship modifies the speaker’s epistemic judgment on the certainty of the privileged future, the cause-effect relation, and the sceptic views on the successful implementation of preemptive measures, resulting in the articulation of the privileged future through probabilistic and dynamic modalities. Moreover, the privileged future is conceptualised as necessary through deontic modality. By contrast, the realisation of the oppositional future is articulated through unmediated modality pinpointing the status that will materialise in light of inaction and negligence.
Approximately stealth black hole in higher-order scalar-tensor theories
Authors: De Felice Antonio , Mukohyama Shinji , Takahashi Kazufumi 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
We investigate a generic quadratic higher-order scalar-tensor theory with a scordatura
term, which is expected to provide a consistent perturbative description of stealth solutions with
a timelike scalar field profile. In the DHOST subclass, exactly stealth solutions are known to
yield perturbations infinitely strongly coupled and thus cannot be trusted. Beyond DHOST theories
with the scordatura term, such as in ghost condensation and U-DHOST, we show that stealth
configurations cannot be realized as exact solutions but those theories instead admit
approximately stealth solutions where the deviation from the exactly stealth configuration is
controlled by the mass scale M of derivative expansion. The approximately stealth solution is
time-dependent, which can be interpreted as the black hole mass growth due to the accretion of the
scalar field. From observed astrophysical black holes, we put an upper bound on M as
ĉ
D1
1/2
M ≲ 2 × 1011 GeV, where ĉ
D1 is a
dimensionless parameter of order unity that characterizes the scordatura term. As far as M is
sufficiently below the upper bound, the accretion is slow and the approximately stealth solutions
can be considered as stealth at astrophysical scales for all practical purposes while
perturbations are weakly coupled all the way up to the cutoff M and the apparent ghost is as
heavy as or heavier than M.
Fluctuation-response relation of time-symmetric quantities around general nonequilibrium stationary state
Authors: Shiraishi Naoto 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
A connection between the response and fluctuation in general nonequilibrium stationary states is investigated. We focus on time-symmetric quantities and find that the fluctuation of a kind of empirical measure can be expressed with the response of the empirical measure, current, and the time-symmetric current. This relation is proven by using the fictitious stalling decomposition: we decompose a single observed transition (edge in the state space) between two microscopic states into two transitions such that one of the transitions stalls in this stationary state. Through this trick, relations for stalling stationary states apply to general nonequilibrium stationary states, which leads to the desired relation.
Thermalization in many-fermion quantum systems with one-plus random k-body interactions
Authors: Rao Priyanka , Chavda N D 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
We study the mechanism of thermalization in finite many-fermion systems with random k-body interactions in the presence of a mean-field. The system Hamiltonian H, for m fermions in N single particle states with k-body interactions, is modeled by mean field one-body h(1) and a random k-body interaction V(k) with strength λ. Following the recent application of q-Hermite polynomials to these ensembles, a complete analytical description of parameter q, which describes the change in the shape of state density from Gaussian for q = 1 to semi-circle for q = 0 and intermediate for

, the smooth part of the strength functions is very well represented by conditional q-normal distribution (f

CN
), which describes the transition in strength functions from Gaussian to semi-circle as the k-body interaction changes from k = 2 to m in H. In the thermodynamic region, ensemble averaged results for the first four moments of the strength functions and inverse participation ratio are found to be in good agreement with the corresponding smooth forms. For higher body rank of interaction k, the system thermalizes faster.
One-step synthesis of non-equilibrium Pd-Ru alloys from Al-Pd-Ru quasicrystals and approximants
Authors: Fukushima Takeru , Tsukuda Ryota , Ohhashi Satoshi , Fujita Nobuhisa , Kameoka Satoshi 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Non-equilibrium Pd–Ru alloys were synthesized by leaching quasicrystal (icosahedral quasicrystal, IQC: Al71Pd19Ru10) and approximants (3/2 approximant, P40: Al72Pd16.4Ru11.6, 1/1 approximant, C1: Al70.4Pd14.7Ru14.9) of Al–Pd–Ru alloys with 20 wt% NaOH aqueous solution. The Pd-Ru alloys were investigated using XRD and HAADF-STEM, which showed that Pd and Ru were mixed and formed a non-equilibrium state (atomic ratio: 0.9 < Pd/Ru < 2). The Pd–Ru alloy obtained by leaching of P40 phase was found to exhibit high catalytic performance toward CO oxidation than Pd and Ru catalysts obtained by leaching of Al3Pd (decagonal quasicrystal) and Al13Ru4 (decagonal approximant), respectively (i.e., the alloying effect). Consequently, Al-Pd-Ru quasicrystals and approximant alloys are found to be useful precursors to obtain the non-equilibrium Pd-Ru alloys.
Confined states in the tight-binding model on the hexagonal golden-mean tiling

Published: March 2023

Abstract
We study the tight-binding model with two distinct hoppings (tL, tS
) on the two-dimensional hexagonal golden-mean tiling and examine the confined states with E = 0, where E is the eigenenergy. Some confined states found in the case tL
= tS
are exact eigenstates even for the system with tL
≠ t
S, where their amplitudes are smoothly changed. By contrast, the other states are no longer eigenstates of the system with tL
≠ t
S. This may imply the existence of macroscopically degenerate states which are characteristic of the system with tL
= t
S, and that a discontinuity appears in the number of the confined states in the thermodynamic limit.
Evaluating the phonon-phason coupling strength of an Al-Ni-Co decagonal quasicrystal
Authors: Zhang Jinjia , Bo Ning , Kamimura Yasushi , Tokumoto Yuki , Edagawa Keiichi 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Recently, a novel method was proposed to probe the phonon-phason coupling effect in quasicrystals, and it was applied to an Al-Pd-Mn icosahedral quasicrystal. In this study, the method was applied to an Al-Ni-Co decagonal quasicrystal with a periodic layered structure of a two-dimensional quasicrystal. We applied elastic phonon strain along a 2-fold (aperiodic) axis in the quasicrystal plane at high temperatures with active phasons. Then, the phason strain was induced to the quasicrystal, which was demonstrated by the phason momentum (G
⊥) dependences of the powder X-ray diffraction peak widths. In contrast, when we applied phonon strain along the 10-fold periodic axis, no appreciable phason strain was observed to be induced. These results present clear evidence on the presence of phonon-phason coupling in a decagonal quasicrystal. The shape and width of the powder X-ray diffraction peaks were calculated based on the generalized elasticity of quasicrystals. The absolute value of the phonon-phason coupling constant was evaluated by quantitatively comparing the calculated results with the measured diffraction peaks.
Effects of Pt substitution on the formation and magnetic behavior of a Ga–Pd–Tb 2/1 approximant
Authors: So Y G , Takagi K , Sato T J 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
A systematic study on the formation and magnetic properties of Tsai-type 2/1 approximants in Ga–(Pd, Pt)–Tb alloys was conducted by replacing Pd with Pt in a previously reported antiferromagnetic Ga–Pd–Tb 2/1 approximant. Tsai-type 2/1 approximants were found to form quaternary Ga–(Pd, Pt)–Tb alloys as well as ternary Ga–Pt–Tb alloys. Magnetic susceptibility measurements indicated that the substitution of Pt for Pd in the 2/1 approximants resulted in a change in the magnetism from antiferromagnetic to spin-glass-like behavior.

Abstract
The structure of ζ´-Al80Mn16Co4 was analyzed using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The diffraction pattern indicated that the ζ´-AlMnCo phase has a hexagonal unit cell with a space group P63/m, a = 30.5173(5) Å, c = 12.4742(2) Å, and the a-axis is

-times as large as that of the ζ-phases in the Al-Cr-Cu and Al-Cr-Ni systems. Mn atoms prefer icosahedral coordination similar to that of Cr in the ζ-phase, and the Co atoms are located in the interstitial area formed by the connection of the icosahedra. The icosahedral connection of the ζ´-phase is well characterized by the I3 cluster, a fragment of vertices sharing 3 icosahedra. The structural features of the superstructure are associated with the distribution of Co in the interstitial area.
Equivalence between pure point diffractive sets and cut-and-project sets on substitution tilings
Authors: Lee Jeong-Yup 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Quasicrystals are characterized by the property of pure point diffractive spectrum mathematically. We look at substitution tilings and characterize the pure point diffractive spectrum by regular model sets defined from a cut-and-project scheme. The cut-and-project scheme is built with a physical space ℝ
d
and an internal space which is a product of a Euclidean space and a profinite group. The assumptions we make here are that the expansion map of the substitution is diagonalizable and its eigenvalues are all algebraically conjugate with same multiplicity. We give a precise argument for the proof on a specific example.
Short- and medium-range ordering in Al3Mn amorphous alloy prepared by magnetron sputtering
Authors: Kawamata T , Sugiyama K 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The structure of the Al3Mn amorphous alloy synthesized by magnetron sputtering was investigated using a combination of anomalous X-ray scattering and reverse Monte Carlo simulations. The geometrical features in the short- and medium-range regions around Mn were significantly different from those inferred by the dense random packing of the hard-sphere model, suggesting that the environmental structure around Mn is influenced by chemical interactions similar to those realized in the crystalline Al3Mn structure. The present advanced analysis also indicated that the medium-range ordering structure corresponding to a pre-peak signal in the X-ray diffraction profiles was because of the Al-Mn and Mn-Mn correlations accompanied by the modulation of number density and non-Bernal-type coordination geometry.
Profit as a main factor in forecasting agricultural business development
Authors: Bal-Prylypko L , Cherednichenko O , Stepasyuk L , Titenko Z 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The essence and role of profit in forecasting the development of agricultural production are investigated in the article. The value of profit in modern conditions as an important driving force of the economy is determined and proved. It is revealed that forecasting the development of agricultural business is a set of studies of economic activities of the enterprise using appropriate sources of information, determining available reserves, analysing the results of activities and developing the necessary measures for efficient production. The DuPont model was used to analyse the impact of indicators on return on equity. It was found that the factor analysis of the profitability of own capital makes it possible to determine the impact of key factors on performance. Research has shown that return on equity depends on three factors: return on sales, asset turnover and the structure of advance capital. These factors summarize all aspects of financial and economic activities of the enterprise, their statics and dynamics. Based on the factor model, the possibilities of quantitative and qualitative growth of the basic economic indicators of activity of the agricultural enterprise, which are expressed in underused reserves of production resources, are defined. Possible directions of increasing the company’s profit in modern conditions have been studied, among which the main ones may be: growth of production and sales volumes, optimization of production and sales costs and improvement of its quality.

Abstract
The article defines that to create an effective system of financial and economic regulation of the system-vector development of economic quiddity in the conditions of the circular economy it is necessary to define reserves, which contain a system of measures and methods of determining the potential capacity to develop in accordance with the real opportunities of economic entities of the energy sector in conditions of uncertainty, that allows to make well-grounded and well-balanced management decisions. It is determined that the methodical approach to determining the impact of target parameters of financial and economic condition on the level of the system-vector development of economic entities of the energy sector in the conditions of the circular economy, based on the use of financial-economics identification of the system-vector development of economic quiddity, considering the diversity, nonlinearity of target parameters of financial and economic activities and the convergence of their institutional dominants. This allows to determine the weighting of statistical indicators of financial condition, which reflects the parametric data of ranges of factors-indicators of impact on the level of financial-economics support of the system-vector development of economic quiddity in the conditions of the circular economy.

Abstract
In this paper the factors influencing sustainable development were identified. The influence of emergent qualities of education management on stable development is highlighted. The analysis of the rating of countries by the level of education, the human development index was carried out. A cognitive map-review of systematized factors of influence on the development of education in the modern socio-economic environment has been constructed. Economic-mathematical models that describe trends in indicators of the impact of emergent qualities of education management on sustainable development and testify to a fairly stable relationship between the factors influencing the stable development of education management have been constructed. It is proved that the emergent qualities of education management have a direct impact on the creation of a scientific and technological platform in Ukraine as an effective mechanism for partnership and interaction between education, science and business.
