Published: December 2022

Neste artigo apresentamos o atual estado da arte da produção de dissertações e teses acerca das mudanças climáticas junto ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação Ambiental (PPGEA) da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande (FURG). Primeira formação stricto senso do Brasil na área da Educação Ambiental, os dados revelaram que três pesquisas abordaram o tema: duas teses e uma dissertação. Esses são dados apreendidos após uma busca junto ao sítio eletrônico do PPGEA, bem como ao repositório científico da universidade, entre os anos de 1994 e 2021. Tabulados a partir de uma metodologia qualitativa, esses dados permitem a construção de uma série de nexos interpretativos que evidenciam uma síntese entre o perfil do referido programa, e o seu universo de produção em relação ao tema das mudanças ambientais globais. Por fim, a intuito é contribuir para a identificação do acúmulo já existente, bem como as possibilidades de inserção do clima nesse que é um programa de pós-graduação histórico para a Educação Ambiental (EA) do país. Proposta que colabora, da mesma forma, a uma discussão de caráter amplo quanto ao posicionamento da EA no contexto dos debates climáticos na contemporaneidade.

Published: December 2022

Introduction: Alexithymia and impulsivity are related and predict aggressiveness in younger adults, especially in forensic contexts. However, little is known about this relationship in older adults,especially in geriatric institutionalized settings, where aggressiveness presents a high prevalence. Thus, we aimed to analyze the impact of impulsivity and alexithymia in institutionalized older adults’ aggressiveness after examining the relationships between these variables. Relevant variables were controlled for in these relations.Methods: Ninety-seven institutionalized participants (60–94 years, 70.1% women, 59.8% nursing homes’ residents) were assessed with the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire-SF, TorontoAlexithymia Scale-20, and Barratt’s Impulsiveness Scale-15.Results: The self-reported level of aggressiveness was low in our sample. Aggressiveness correlated with and was predicted by alexithymia (R2=17.6%; β=0.24, p<.05) and impulsiveness (R2=17.6%; β=0.34, p<.01).Conclusion: Despite the low levels of aggressiveness (potentially explained by levels of medication, more supervision, and more frailty), our findings with institutionalized older adults demonstrate the relevance of alexithymia and impulsiveness for understanding aggressiveness in older adults, adding to previous studies with other types of populations. We provide directions for psychotherapeuticstrategies.
Stéphane de Byzance. Les Ethniques comme source historique: l’exemple de l’Europe occidentale - Annexes
Authors: Bouiron Marc 
Published: December 2022

<p>Le lexique géographique du grammairien byzantin Stéphane de Byzance, les <em>Ethniques, </em>est une oeuvre à l’origine monumentale. Ce lexique contenait de nombreuses mentions d’auteurs disparus, se rapportant à des toponymes du monde antique connu des Grecs et des Romains. À l’intérieur de ce lexique, nous avons choisi d’étudier plus spécialement ceux situés en Europe occidentale (péninsule ibérique, Gaule, Germanie et Bretagne antiques), en lien avec les sites archéologiques connus s’y rapportant. L’ouvrage ayant été abrégé à plusieurs reprises au cours du Moyen Âge, la confrontation de l’ensemble des notices a permis de proposer de nouvelles attributions d’auteurs antiques, leur nom et leur citation ayant très souvent disparu des manuscrits conservés. Par ailleurs l’analyse précise de la transmission de l’oeuvre apporte un éclairage nouveau sur les moments où ce grammairien a été lu et utilisé, du VIe s. jusqu’à sa redécouverte à la fin du XVe s. La structure même du lexique permet de revenir sur la lexicographie antique et médiévale, et d’envisager les apports à la fois des grammairiens et des auteurs antiques (pour la plupart géographes et historiens) qui étaient cités. Enfin, le cadre géographique choisi permet d’explorer les autres textes antiques ainsi que les données archéologiques depuis l’époque grecque archaïque jusqu’à la fin de l’Empire romain. Nous avons inclus dans ce travail une analyse et une traduction de l’<em>Ora maritima </em>d’Aviénus, afin de compléter l’étude de la péninsule ibérique et du Midi de la Gaule.</p>

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Chemicals are essential components of our daily lives, for the well-being, high living standards and comfort of modern society. They are used in many sectors, including health. However, some chemicals have hazardous properties which can harm the environment and human health. Chemical pollution is significantly contributing to the current global problem of climate change and loss of biodiversity There is an increase in health problems that can be partially explained by the use of chemicals. Some man-made chemicals are found in the most remote places in the environment, but also in our bodies. Chemicals are everywhere. Chemicals strategy for sustainability towards a toxic-free environment will ensure better protection of human health and the environment from hazardous chemicals, boost innovation for safe and sustainable chemicals and enable the transition to chemicals that are safe and sustainable by design. It is a first step towards the Zero pollution ambition for a toxic-free environment announced in the European Green Deal. The strategy proposes comprehensive chemical legislations for the transformation of industry with the aim of attracting investment into safe and sustainable products and production methods. Clinical laboratories must choose safer, more sustainable alternatives to hazardous chemicals, address sustainability issues, and implement official guidelines on how to reduce their carbon footprint.

Tocqueville’s America
Authors: Birzer Bradley J. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
On the evening of November 5, 1831, a young Frenchman by the name of Alexis de Tocqueville met the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence, Charles Carroll of Carrollton. Just a little over a year after their meeting, Carroll, age 95, would pass away to much acclaim from the young republic. He would be memorialized as a great man in Israel and as the last of the Romans. That he would be remembered as both a Hebrew prophet and a Republican demigod would not shock the young Frenchman. Indeed, Carroll impressed Tocqueville so much that he lamented that “this race of men is disappearing now after having provided America with her greatest spirits.” With the passing of the revolutionary generation, Tocqueville continued, “the tradition of cultivated manners is lost; the people is becoming enlightened, attainments spread, and a middling ability becomes common. The striking talents, the great characters, are rare. Society,” he thought, “is less brilliant and more prosperous.” Whereas Europe had theorized about such great men in the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, America had actually produced a genius generation. Carroll was the last remnant. Carroll reminisced proudly about his days in the American Revolution, his own thoughts on independence, and his respect for the English. Tocqueville, it seems, listened with rapt attention.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Lives are threatened whenever there is an act of theft or destruction against a nuclear and radiological facility thus, physical protection systems are effectively employed to prevent or mitigate loss of valuable assets. Health facilities that provide radiotherapy services have in their facility a temporary storage unit where disused radioactive sources 60Co, 137Cs and 192Ir are kept and this raises concerns for effective physical protection. An integrated physical protection System was considered to consolidate of all sub systems, sensors and elements related to protection system for an effectively secured environment at a radiological facility. Sequence adversary diagram (ASD) was developed to depict the paths that enemies can take to achieve sabotage or stealing objectives and analyze flews in the paths. The approach to this security system effectiveness focuses on using probabilistic statistical methods for risk evaluation considering detection, delays and response. This paper considers the basic and effective elements required for physical protection system for a radiological center and makes risk evaluation as an approach of security system effectiveness which can serve as fundamental guiding principle for decision makers in the establishment of an effective physical protection for a radiological center.
Approximity of asymmetric metric spaces
Authors: Ghosal Sanjoy , Mandal Sourav , Banerjee Mandobi 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
In this present work, we perceive the ideas of rough weighted statistical limit set as well as rough weighted statistical cluster points set and originate these conceptions into asymmetric metric spaces. On this context we frame out several results which substantially intensify these perceptions. While explicating such notions in terms of their asymmetric concepts, this generalization despite unfollows some previous results rather generates new characteristics. Also, we will adorn a sufficient condition using rough weighted statistical convergence which converts asymmetric metric spaces to approximate metric spaces.

Authors: Eghwerido Joseph Thomas , Nzei Lawrence Chukwudumebi , Omotoye Adebola Evelyn , Agu Friday Ikechukwu 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This study introduces a parsimonious and tractable generator for continuous distribution called the Teissier-G family of distributions for continuous random variables and examines the distributions belonging to this family as the sub-models. Some general statistical characteristics and sub-models of the new generator were examined and studied. Similarly, we examined the shapes of the sub-models probability density function (pdf) and hazard rate function were investigated. The parameter of the proposed model was obtained in a closed form by maximum likelihood. In addition to the numerical real life applications, Monte Carlo simulation was performed to examine the flexibility of the introduced models. The models provide good fits in all the cases. The results show great improvement compared to existing models.

An algebraic study of the logic S5’(BL)
Authors: Wang Juntao , He Xiaoli , Wang Mei 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
P. Hájek introduced an S5-like modal fuzzy logic S5(BL) and showed that is equivalent to the monadic basic predicate logic mBL∀
. Inspired by the above important results, D. Castaño et al. introduced monadic BL-algebras and their corresponding propositional logic S5’(BL), which is a simplified set of axioms of S5(BL). In this paper, we review the algebraic semantics of S5’(BL) and obtain some new results regarding to monadic BL-algebras. First we recall that S5’(BL) is completeness with respect to the variety 𝕄𝔹𝕃 of monadic BL-algebras and obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the logic S5’(BL) to be semilinear. Then we study some further algebraic properties of monadic BL-algebras and discuss the relationship between monadic MV-algebras and monadic BL-algebras. Finally we give some characterizations of representable, simple, semisimple and directly indecomposable monadic BL-algebras, which are important members of the variety 𝕄𝔹𝕃. These results also constitute a crucial first step for providing an equivalent algebraic foundation for mBL∀

A general matrix series inversion pair and associated polynomials
Authors: Sanjhira Reshma R. , Dave B. I. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
In the present work, a pair of general inverse matrix series relations is established, and thereby a general class of matrix polynomials is introduced. This class generalizes the extended Jacobi polynomials and their particular cases such as the polynomials of Brafman, Jacobi, Chebyshev, and Legendre. It is further shown that this pair also gives rise to the matrix forms of the Wilson polynomials and the Racah polynomials. For these polynomials, the generating matrix function relations as well as the matrix summation formulas are deduced from their respective inverse pairs. Certain inverse pairs belonging to the Gould classes and the Legendre-Chebyshev classes due to John Riordan [An Introduction to Combinatorial Identities, Wiley, 1968] are also extended to matrix forms.
On a generalized Lamé-Navier system in ℝ3
Authors: Santiesteban Daniel Alfonso , Blaya Ricardo Abreu , Alejandre Martín Patricio Árciga 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This paper is devoted to a fundamental system of equations in Linear Elasticity Theory: the famous Lamé-Navier system. The Clifford algebra language allows us to rewrite this system in terms of the Euclidean Dirac operator, which at the same time suggests a very natural generalization involving the so-called structural sets. We are interested in finding some structures in the solutions of these generalized Lamé-Navier systems. Using MATLAB we also implement algorithms to compute with such partial differential operators as well as to verify some theoretical results obtained in the paper.

A bivariate extension of the Omega distribution for two-dimensional proportional data
Authors: Özbilen Ömer , Genç Alі İ. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
When data generating mechanism generates two correlated data sets both defined on the unit interval, a bivariate probabilistic distribution defined on the unit square is needed for modelling the data. For this purpose, we give a Marshall-Olkin type bivariate extension of an omega distribution in this paper. This is in fact a bivariate unit-exponentiated-half-logistic distribution. We study its mathematical properties in detail. The distribution contains neither an exponential term nor any special function which complicates the computations. Maximum likelihood estimation method and its large sample inference are considered for model parameters. Alternatively, we also propose an expectation- maximization algorithm to compute the estimates. To see the performances of the proposed estimators and validate the theoretical results obtained for estimation, we present the results of a simulation study. Data fitting demonstrations show its applicability in modelling random proportions.
Microwave heating rate and dielectric properties of some agricultural wastes
Authors: Alias Norulaina , Ahmad Zaini Muhammad Abbas , Kamaruddin Mohd Johari 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Interaction between the microwave heating rate and dielectric properties of agricultural wastes is important in identifying suitable microwave operating conditions. This work focuses on the interaction between microwave heating rate (power intensity) and dielectric properties of selected agricultural wastes, namely castor shell, empty fruit bunch and palm kernel shell. Heating rate was recorded every 30 s for 10 min in a 2.45 GHz microwave at power intensities of 100, 300, 450, 600, 700 and 800 W. All materials tested display an increase in heating rate with increasing power intensity. Castor shell and empty fruit bunch at 800 W, and palm kernel shell at 600 W exhibit high heating rates of 0.134, 0.165, 0.247 °C/s, respectively. For dielectric properties, palm kernel shell series shows a high value of loss tangent compared to the other counterparts, indicating its effectiveness to be heated via microwave.

Published: December 2022

Hepatoses of laying hens are quite common in poultry farms as a result of improper practices of poultry maintenance consisting in excessive number of protein feeds for provision of high productivity. The objective of the study was preventive efficacy of Gep-A-Stress hepatoprotectors (carnitine hydrochloride, D L methionine, sorbitol, choline chloride, magnesium sulfate heptahydrate) and Hepasan VS (L-carnitine hydrochloride, sorbitol, choline chloride, magnesium sulfate hepahydrate, betaine hydrochloride, L-arginin) against hepatosis of laying hens. To determine the efficacy of Hep-A-Stres and Hepasan-VS hepatoprotectors during production tests (n = 4,500), we monitored the parameters of survival rate (the final number of individuals as percentage of the initial number) and egg productivity of laying hens. We determined that after 30 days of using the hepatoprotectors, the content of overall protein in blood serum of laying hens of the first and the second experimental groups decreased by 21.4% and 18.9% compared with the parameters prior to providing the hepatoprotectors and by 26.3% and 23.3% compared with the control group after receiving the drug. The urea contents in blood serum increased by 19.0% and 10.5%. Compared with the control, the activity of alanine aminotransferase decreased by 43.7% and 24.1% in the first experimental group and by 23.4% and 14.9% in the second. The activity of aspartate aminotransferase in blood serum of the experimental groups decreased by 10.7%. The cholesterol concentration decreased by 50% and 58.3%. The content of triaglycerols decreased by 24.1% and 8.9% respectively. The concentrations of high-density lipoproteins after 30 days of the experiment decreased by 33.3% and 77.8% respectively, the content of low-density lipoproteins decreased by 61.3% and 40.4% and 42.3%. Population maintenance equaled respectively 97.1%, 98.3% and 98.1%. At the end of the experiment, the egg productivity of laying hens of the first and second groups increased by 4% and 3.6% compared with the control. Therefore, intake of the hepaprotectors by laying hens stimulated their metabolism, positively influenced the blood parameters, survival and egg productivity. The conducted studies confirm the benefits of using hepatoprotectors for the prohylaxis of hepatosis of hens.
Цифровизация волонтерства пожилых людей в период пандемии: возможности и барьеры в контексте искусственного интеллекта
Authors: Галкин Константин 
Published: December 2022

С наступлением пандемии COVID‑19 развитие волонтерства стало сопряжено с использованием цифровых технологий. Для отдельных групп населения, таких как пожилые, цифровизация волонтерства стала не только возможностью для участия в добровольческой деятельности, но и важным фактором включенности в социальную жизнь на основании преодоления социального исключения, связанного с изоляцией, созданной пандемией COVID‑19. В статье на результатах эмпирического исследования, проведенного среди пожилых волонтеров в Санкт-­Петербурге и Республике Карелия, рассматривается потенциал и ограничения цифровых технологий в реализации волонтерских функций пожилых, в том числе в период пандемии. Я прибегаю к рассмотрению роли устройств и платформ, основанных на использовании искусственного интеллекта, и анализирую коммуникации пожилых людей в этом контексте. Основной вывод заключается в том, что такие платформы создают новые типы искусственной социальности и волонтерских солидарностей для пожилых, где сами устройства становятся акторами-­посредниками, структурирующими и изменяющими привычные практики волонтерской деятельности, задающими особенные контексты коммуникации в рамках волонтерских практик. В статье анализируется роль самих устройств-­акторов, трансформирующих повседневность пожилых людей и задающих особенности в развитии подобной повседневности. На основании взаимодействий пожилых людей с подобными устройствами происходит создание и развитие практик онлайн-­волонтерства и расширение подобных практик в период пандемии COVID‑19. Цифровизация волонтерской деятельности пожилых в период коронавируса демонстрирует положительное влияние на преодоление социальной исключенности как для самих волонтеров, так и для подопечных, тех кому адресована помощь. Однако в статье также рассматриваются барьеры и ограничения подобных практик для пожилых людей. К сложностям цифровизации волонтерской деятельности относятся проблемы знания и использования информационных технологий, вопросы инфраструктурного дефицита, связанные с перебоями электроэнергии и проблемами «цифровой усталости».
