Authors: Bouznada Khaoula , Boubetra Dalila , Tata Samira , Bouras Noureddine , Bakli Mahfoud , Meklat Atika 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
A newly characterized actinobacterial strain, designated B20, displayed remarkable tolerance to extreme pH and NaCl conditions, while showcasing a diversity in carbon source utilization. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed its taxonomic assignment within the genus Nocardiopsis. However, several physiological features were found to differentiate B20 from its most closely related Nocardiopsis species. Notably, Nocardiopsis sp. B20 demonstrated potent and selective antifungal activity against various micro-fungi, suggesting its potential as a valuable source for targeted antifungal compounds. Ethyl acetate extract contains a bioactive compound, B20-1, displaying antifungal properties. Chemical revelations indicated the presence of sugars and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in B20-1 compound. The discovery of antifungal PAHs derived from natural sources presents promising opportunity for addressing fungal infections while mitigating environmental concerns and resistance risks associated with synthetic fungicides. However, further research is warranted to evaluate efficacy, assess ecological impacts, and explore potential applications across diverse industries.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
Lubricanting greases from waste frying vegetables oils with natural fibers additives could be the answer to the sustainable production of greases. Also, their biodegradability makes them more acceptable for the environment, having in view increasingly strict regulations in domain. In this experimental work, twenty lubricant formulae were created from waste sunflower oil and waste palm oil with calcium or lithium stearate as thickener and cellulose or lignin additives. All were rheologically tested and characterized as Bingham fluid with good consistency and plasticity. The penetration tests confirmed the good consistency, categorizing these products from normal to firm, very firm and hard lubricant greases comparable to those conventionally obtained from mineral oils.
Variables to consider upon having decided to include pragmatics in the teaching of languages
Authors: Ypsilandis George S. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The relationship between the systems of language and of culture has been put forward and abundantly discussed since the late 60s, given that the second influences greatly the pragmatic level of the first. This issue has been explored in various empirical and experimental studies, particularly within the area of intercultural discourse, and thereon has been well documented in various analyses investigating pragmalinguistic (PML) failure. These linguistic pitfalls have been mostly justified and explained through applying the approach of the language transfer hypothesis to show that L1 conventions are inappropriately and unsuitably transferred from the L1 to the L2. However, there is reason to feel that approaching this failure from another standpoint is due, and that doing so will contribute to increased success in the teaching and learning of languages. This text initially presents the topic by drawing on examples from various studies, and it discusses this PML aspect in the teaching of a L2: a) to disclose its role in the communication tools used between native and non-native speakers by looking at an array of different types of L1s and language teaching setups, and b) through fingering distinctions between international and minority languages under the framework of intercultural communication. Various questions are raised and discussed, across a range/variety of opposing poles (e.g. the world’s largest and most influential to less commonly taught languages, teach/not teach, explicit/implicit), in order to produce answers that would help each language teacher find their own answers to tackle and overcome problems of what to include in their teaching and how to go about it. To draw the text to an eloquent end, teaching proposals that integrate digital technologies are presented.
Comparative Study Of Five Mppt Controls In Two-Stage Three-Phase Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Systems Under Partial Shading Conditions

Published: September 2023

Abstract
One of the maximum popular renewable electricity assets is photovoltaics. Grid-connected photovoltaic structures are designed to generate as a lot strength as possible. Photovoltaic systems have nonlinear traits imposed with the aid of environmental factors consisting of radiation and temperature, making it hard to operate at the most power factor. It may additionally be tough to extract the maximum amount of electricity due to the formation of nearby maxima because of other factors which include shading or degradation. There are several MPPT algorithms and approaches that may be used for this. Publications with comparative analyses have also been released. However, in most of these works, comparisons are based on simulations or literature review. From the simplest to the most complex MPPT methods, empirical validation remains important. The two simplest and most widely used MPPT techniques are the perturbation, open-loop, and incremental conductance algorithms. The three most challenging ones are sliding mode control, backstepping controller, and particle swarm optimization. Therefore, five MPPT algorithms are empirically studied in this paper. Under test settings, Matlab/Simulink was used to conduct experimental experiments. The findings demonstrate that under ordinary operating circumstances, the backstepping algorithm is the only one capable of finding the global MPP under the influence of local shadowing.

Published: September 2023

Two boreholes of an experimental site located in the Cher region (France) were investigated via Full Waveform Acoustic Logging (FWAL). The acoustic tool used for the FWAL experiments is a flexible monopole tool holding two pairs of piezoelectric receivers and a magnetostrictive transducer. The tool was modified to perform both active and passive FWAL. To our knowledge, this change is a novelty. For passive acoustic logging, several runs were recorded to obtain a set of acoustic noise sections from which noise Root Mean Squared (RMS) amplitude logs and spectral amplitude logs in different frequency bandwidths were computed. The acoustic logs resulting from passive acoustic monitoring were compared with P-wave acoustic velocity, core data, and a flowmeter log. It is shown that: (1) the distribution of noise frequencies in the 0–5 kHz is strongly correlated with the variations of the flowmeter, (2) the distribution of noise frequencies and noise RMS amplitude is correlated with the lithology (core description), and the P-wave velocity log. As the noise is simultaneously recorded by two receivers of the tool, an interference noise section was elaborated by correlating and summing pairs of acoustic traces at each depth. This procedure, which can be interpreted as an interferometry analysis, points out the presence of low-frequency waves identified as Stoneley waves. It is shown that the Stoneley wave velocity obtained in passive mode can be used to estimate the shear velocity of the formation.

The Palestinian coin currency as a medium of exchange no longer exists; including stamps and seals; except as the object of research. So research is carried out with the formulation of the problem, how change both coin currency, stamps, and seals as an administrative instrument in Palestine on 19-20 century transition era? The research purpose was to determine the change in coin currency, stamps, and seals in that era. Through research methods qualitative, exploratory, and literature study; then both coin currency, stamps, and seals were collected as evidence of its existence and change. Data were collected, processed, presented, and discussed through qualitative descriptive analysis, comparison and synthesis, during the 2021. The results showed, the coin currency of kurush equivalent to piaster (1876-1908), para (1909-1917), millieme (1909-1917) it was later replaced by mil (1927-1947); in line the change of stamps and seals of piaster (1906, 1918); para (1910, 1919); millieme (1920, 1926); which was later replaced by mil (1927, 1937) of Palestine. The Palestinian coin currency experienced a dysfunction and disappeared from circulation instead of the Israel coin currency appearing to shift its existence. The reason is not only the helplessness of Palestine but the departure of Britain (1948) after obtaining a mandate (1922) so that it has influence and interest but is used more for the purposes of its country, including Israel. The existence of coin currency, stamps and seals becomes an urgency to be realized again towards a sovereign Palestinian state now. Further research on Palestinian currency was needed.

Истощение ископаемых ресурсов приводит к тому, что мир постепенно переходит к использованию возобновляемых материалов для производства топлива и химикатов. Такими материалами может считаться биомасса растений, а также твердые бытовые отходы. На сегодняшний день большой интерес вызывает совместная переработка нефтяного сырья и компонентов биомассы, которая дает возможность уменьшить потребление нефти и решить проблему накопления органических отходов (например, отходов деревообрабатывающей промышленности). В данной работе было проведено исследование оптимальных условий температуры, газовой фазы, в которой проходит процесс, и начального давления совместной переработки модельных соединений нефти и компонентов биомассы (тиофена и анизола).
The depletion of fossil resources leads to the fact that the world is gradually moving to the use of renewable materials for the production of fuels and chemicals. Such materials can be considered plant biomass, as well as solid household waste. Today, the joint processing of petroleum raw materials and biomass components is of great interest, which makes it possible to reduce oil consumption and solve the problem of accumulation of organic waste (for example, waste from the woodworking industry). In this work, the optimal conditions of temperature, the gas phase in which the process takes place, and the initial pressure of the joint processing of model oil compounds and biomass components (thiophene and anisole) were investigated.

Blockchain as a Promising Technology for International Settlements (on the Example of the Russian Economy)
Authors: Safiullin Marat , Elshin Leonid , Burganov Rafis 
Published: September 2023

Purpose: Development and testing of methodological approaches to the empirical assessment of a possible increase in GDP in the case of simulating the transition of cross-border payments to the blockchain environment using the example of the national economy of the Russian Federation.

Theoretical framework: In modern scientific literature, much attention is paid to questions about the prospects for the transition of financial transactions to the blockchain (Adrian T. et al., 2018; Allen D. et al., 2019; Boar C. et al., 2020; Kochergin D., 2021; Nazarenko Y., 2018 and others.). However, it should be argued that the methodological base justifying the macroeconomic efficiency of such decisions has not been formed in a holistic way. In this regard, this study is an attempt to develop theoretical and methodological tools that substantiate the feasibility of creating blockchain platforms for transnational payments.

Design/Methodology/Approach: Using the national economy of Russia as an example, we conducted an empirical assessment of the potential increase in gross domestic product (GDP) by simulating transitioning cross-border payments into a blockchain ecosystem.

Findings: It was determined that the potential cumulative macroeconomic effect (i.e., GDP growth) may reach 4.0% per year, corresponding to 6.05 trillion rubles ($75.6 billion US dollars).

Research, Practical & Social implications: We propose a future research agenda and highlight the contribution of blockchain to FinTech development.

Originality/Value: Estimates demonstrate the prospects of blockchain application in transnational payments and highlight their potential use for mitigating risks associated with increasing sanction pressure, including restrictions on access to international clearing services and payment systems (SWIFT, etc.).
