Ultrasonic Study of Novel Polymer Dextran in Aqueous Media at 12 MHz
Authors: Panda Subhraraj 
Published: August 2023

Background:
The characteristics of matter and the dynamics of molecular processes are examined by acoustic approaches. The primary techniques in molecular acoustics are the measure-ment of sound speed and sound absorption, as well as the relationship between these quantities and different physical variables including pressure, temperature, and wave frequency. Molecular acoustics emerged as a separate field in the 1930s. When it was discovered that many substances disperse the speed of sound during the transmission of sound waves through them and that the classical law, which states that the coefficient of absorption is proportional to the square of the frequency, however, it does not adequately describe how sound is absorbed.

Objective:
The ultrasonic technique is employed because it is one of the most popular techniques, which is very easy to use, and provides precise velocity results. With careful analysis of the results, the correlation between solute and solvent was discovered. In the pharmaceutical, agricultural, and cosmetics industries, dextran and its derivatives from a few select strains have found a wide range of uses. This is why we have chosen it for our study. For assessing the impact of temperature and con-centration on the aqueous medium containing the polymer dextran, ultrasonic properties are crucial. Pycnometer, Ostwald viscometer, and ultrasonic interferometer were used respectively to measure density (ρ), viscosity (η), and ultrasonic speed (u) at "303 K, 308 K, 313 K, 318 K, and 323 K." The experimental parameters are used to determine the acoustic parameters "adiabatic compressibility, Intermolecular free length, relaxation time, acoustic impedance, and Gibb's free energy".

Method:
To measure the density, viscosity, and ultrasonic velocity of the solution using a pycnome-ter, an Ostwald's viscometer, and an ultrasonic interferometer, and to calculate the thermo acoustical parameters based on the measured parameters.

Result:
Applications for examining the physico-chemical behaviour of aqueous dextran using ultra-sound include understanding the nature of molecular interactions.

Conclusion:
It was investigated how concentration and temperature affected the thermoacoustic char-acteristics of aqueous dextran. Hydrogen bonds, charge transfer complexes, and the dissolution of hy-drogen bonds and complexes are only a few examples of the forces that exist between molecules and how the analysis has interpreted their nature. Weak intermolecular forces exist.

Other:
Recent developments in ultrasonic techniques have made them an effective tool for evaluating information regarding the physical and chemical behaviour of liquid molecules.

هذا البحث المتواضع يتكلم عن إحدى الظواهر الأسلوبية المستخدمة في القرآن الكريم، ألا وهو التكرار على مستوى المعنى في قصة سينا نوح - عليه السلام-، حيث إن التكرار جاء على مستوى اللفظ والمعنى، ومستوى اللفظ دون المعنى، ومستوى المعنى دون اللفظ. واما مشكلة هذا البحث فهو كيف التكرار على مستوى المعنى في قصة سينا نوح - عليه السلام-؟ ويهدف هذا البحث إلى الكشف عن معرفة كيفية التكرار على مستوى المعنى في قصة سينا نوح - عليه السلام-. وأما المنهج الذي سيعتمد عليه الباحث، فهو المنهج الوصفي التحليلي الذي يقوم بوصف ظاهرة التكرار في هذه القصة، ومحاولة تفسيرها. وفي الخاتمة يعرض الباحث ما انتهى إليه من نتائج.
من نتائج هذا البحث ما يلي:

التكرار ينقسم إلى ثلاثة أنواع :تكرار اللفظ والمعنى، وتكرار المعنى دون اللفظ، وتكرار اللفظ دون المعنى.
اتفقت هذه القصص جميعا في سورة الأعراف وهود ونوح والمؤمنون على المبدأ الأول، وهو أن الله - تعالى - أرسل نوحا - عليه السلام- إلى قومه، غير أن هناك شيئا من الاختلاف في طريق العرض.
اختلف قوم نوح –عليه السلام- في الإعراض عليه من: نسبة نبيهم نوح –عليه السلام- إلى الضلال في المسائل التي دعا إليها، وعدم الاعتراف برسالته، واتهامهم بأنه مساو لسائر الناس وحب الرئاسة وسؤالهم إنزال الملائكة واتهموه بأنه مجنون.
في نهاية القصة أخبرنا سبحانه وتعالى بإهلاكهم بالغرق، ونجاة نوح - عليه السلام - ومن معه من المؤمنين.

Background:
The efficacy of perioperative prophylactic antiepileptic drug therapy in “seizure-naïve” patients with brain tumor, including glioblastoma (GBM), remains controversial. This study investigated whether perampanel (PER) is effective and safe for preventing perioperative onset of epileptic seizures, so-called early seizure, in patients with brain tumors.

Methods:
Forty-five patients underwent tumor resection through craniotomy for a primary supratentorial brain tumor at Ehime University Hospital between April 2021 and July 2022. PER was administered from the 1st to the 6th day after surgery for seizure prophylaxis. Occurrence of early seizure, hematological toxicities, and various side effects were recorded on postoperative days 7 and 14. In addition, the clinical course of these patients was compared with 42 brain tumor patients under the same treatment protocol who received levetiracetam (LEV) for seizure prophylaxis between April 2017 and October 2018.

Results:
In 45 patients with brain tumor, including GBM, who received PER administration, no early seizures were identified within 7 days postoperatively. No adverse drug reactions such as hematological toxicity, liver or kidney dysfunction, or exanthematous drug eruption were observed in any cases. As side effects, somnolence was reported in 14 patients (31.1%), vertigo in 3 patients (6.7%), and headache in 3 patients (6.7%). Although somnolence and vertigo were difficult to assess in the case of intraparenchymal tumors, particularly GBM, these side effects were not identified in patients with extraparenchymal tumors such as meningiomas, epidermoid cysts, and pituitary adenomas. In addition, no significant differences were identified compared to patients who received LEV.

Conclusion:
The efficacy and safety of PER in preventing early seizures among patients with brain tumors were retrospectively evaluated. Perioperative administration of PER to patients with brain tumors may reduce the risk of early seizures without incurring serious side effects, showing no significant differences compared to patients who received LEV.

Published: August 2023

Работа энергетических компаний во многом зависит от прогнозирования краткосрочной нагрузки. Это повышает способность энергосистемы работать эффективно и стабильно. Спрос на электроэнергию в значительной степени зависит от нескольких независимых факторов, включая время года, температуру, дни недели и погоду. Точность прогноза важна для обеспечения надежного электроснабжения потребителей при сохранении финансового потенциала энергосистемы. В данной статье представлен обзор различных методов прогнозирования нагрузки и конкретный пример трехчасового прогнозирования краткосрочного спроса на основе нечеткой логики в регионе Индор. Для реализации краткосрочного прогнозирования нагрузки был использован набор инструментов нечеткой логики среды MATLAB. Для анализа используется метод дефаззификации типа Мамдани. Предложенная модель, основанная на системе нечеткого вывода, показывает, что максимальная процентная ошибка составила менее 2,5%. Эффективность предложенного подхода подтверждена на реальных данных компании Пасчима Кшетры Видьют Витаран Ко. Лтд. (MPPKVVCL) в городе Индор за март 2012 года. Эффективность модели обусловлена выбором входных переменных, основанных на реальных данных, о которых не сообщалось в предыдущих статьях. Предлагаемая модель обладает способностью точно прогнозировать однодневную почасовую нагрузку.
The operation of power companies largely depends on forecasting short-term load. It improves the power system's ability to operate efficiently and consistently. The demand for electrical energy is much influenced by several independent factors, including the season, temperature, days of the week, and the weather. Forecast accuracy is important to ensure that customers receive reliable electrical power while sustaining the power system's financial potential. This paper presents a review of various load forecasting techniques and a case study of fuzzy logic-based tri-hourly forecasting of short-term demand in the Indore region. The fuzzy logic toolbox of the MATLAB environment has been used for the implementation of short-term load forecasting. Mamdani type defuzzification method is used for the analysis. The proposed fuzzy inference system-based model shows the maximum percentage error has been less than 2.5\%. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated on the real data of the MP Paschim Kshetra Vidyut Vitaran Co. Ltd. (MPPKVVCL) Indore city for March 2012. The strength of the model lies in the selection of real data-based input variables which has not been reported in the earlier papers. The proposed model has the capability of forecasting a one-day hourly load accurately.
