Clausal and phrasal coordination in recent American English
Authors: Kytö Merja , Smitterberg Erik 
Published: November 2022

AbstractSeveral studies have shown that there is considerable cross-genre variation as regards what linguistic units tend to be coordinated byand. While literate, expository writing favors coordination of phrasal units such as noun phrases, coordinated units are more often clausal (e.g., main or subordinate clauses) in speech-related texts. This difference has been attested in studies that focus exclusively on coordination as well as in macro-level studies of co-variation among a large number of linguistic features. However, this register differentiation has increased over time: studies of Early and Late Modern English point to less pronounced differences among registers than those attested in the present-day language. This study fills a gap in research by considering data on coordination byandfrom the middle of the 20th century, a period that does not belong fully to either Late Modern or Present-Day English, and the late 20th and early 21st century, and thus ties diachronic and synchronic research on register variation in coordination together. We also examine language from films and television in order to complement historical findings for speech-related language with data on registers that arose in the 20th century.

Abstract
The GluN2C subunit exists predominantly, but not exclusively in NMDA receptors within the cerebellum. Antagonists such as UBP1700 and positive allosteric modulators including PYD-106 and 3-acylamino-2-aminopropionic acid derivatives such as UA3-10 ((R)-2-amino-3-{[5-(2-bromophenyl)thiophen-2-yl]carboxamido}propionic acid) represent promising tool compounds to investigate the role of GluN2C-containing NMDA receptors in the signal transduction in the brain. However, due to its high polarity the bioavailability and CNS penetration of the amino acid UA3-10 are expected to be rather low. Herein, three ester prodrugs 12a–c of the NMDA receptor glycine site agonist UA3-10 were prepared and pharmacokinetically characterized. The esters 12a–c showed higher lipophilicity (higher logD
7.4 values) than the acid UA3-10 but almost the same binding at human serum albumin. The acid UA3-10 was rather stable upon incubation with mouse liver microsomes and NADPH, but the esters 12a–c were fast hydrolyzed to afford the acid UA3-10. Incubation with pig liver esterase and mouse serum led to rapid hydrolysis of the esters 12a–c. The isopropyl ester 12c showed a promising logD
7.4 value of 3.57 and the highest stability in the presence of pig liver esterase and mouse serum. These results demonstrate that ester prodrugs of UA3-10 can potentially afford improved bioavailability and CNS penetration.

Published: November 2022

AbstractIn the present work, a modified numerical model was developed to simulate the water flow during a dam break with the mud layer transfer of different heights, consisting of three phases (water, air, and a phase for deposition). To carry out a numerical simulation of this process, a mathematical model based on the VOF (volume of fluid) method was modified, taking into account the movement of the water-free surface, which is carried out by the movement of water flow based on the Newtonian fluid model, and the movement of mud impurities is based on the non-Newtonian fluid model. Validation of the constructed model for the influence of three-dimensional features of the flow on morphological changes is carried out by a modified mathematical model and compared with the results of calculation for two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) models. The proposed method for modeling is applied on a real complex terrain, which was based on the Kargalinka – a river in Almaty and the Almaty region of Kazakhstan, the right tributary of the Kaskelen River. Simulation analysis is carried out for cases with different deposit heights. All results of the numerical simulation can be visually viewed using graphs and illustrations.
Indian Servitude(s) in Imperial London: Tanika Gupta’s The Empress
Authors: Schlote Christiane 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Dramatic acts of retrieving marginalised stories and of rewriting imperial history from a transnational perspective have been essential for efforts at decolonising knowledge. In The Empress (2013), Tanika Gupta explores the neglected history of Indian communities and the nexus of imperial labour and mobility in late-Victorian London through interlacing the fictional story of the Bengali ayah Rani and the Indian lascar Hari; the true story of the relationship between Queen Victoria and her Indian munshi Hafiz Mohammed Abdul Karim; and the stories of Westminster’s first Indian MP, Dadabhai Naoroji, and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. By foregrounding the urban experiences of diverging Indian servant characters in the sense of a critical cosmopolitanism and by privileging a heterogeneous “history from below,” this article explores how The Empress presents a counterstory to notions of a Dickensian London “full of bonnets and white people” (Royal Shakespeare Company, “Emma Rice”) and a critical intervention in discourses relating to the ethical challenges inherent in the commemoration and teaching of the British Empire.
The Politics of Experimental Drama: Unexpected Conformity and Weird Resistance in Alistair McDowall’s Pomona
Authors: Barnett David 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
This article explores the relationship between form, content, and politics. It challenges some significant positions by no lesser figures than Bertolt Brecht and Heiner Müller on the need for radical forms to function as a prerequisite for imagining alternatives to the prevailing sociopolitical order. The main focus for analysis is Alistair McDowall’s Pomona (2014), a much-produced and much-lauded play that certainly has an experimental dramaturgy, but one which serves more conservative political ends. The article goes on, however, to identify an instance of “the weird” in the play and argues that an element of content rather than an experimental form can call the world of the play into question.
FL-NoiseMap: A Federated Learning-based privacy-preserving Urban Noise-Pollution Measurement System
Authors: Kumar Dheeraj 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIncreasing levels of noise pollution in urban environments are a primary cause of various physical and psychological health issues. There is an urgent requirement to manage environmental noise by assessing the current levels of noise pollution by gathering real-world data and building a fine-granularity real-time noise map. Traditionally, simulation-based, small-scale sensor-network-based, and participatory sensing-based approaches have been used to estimate noise levels in urban areas. These techniques are inadequate to gauge the prevalence of noise pollution in urban areas and have been shown to leak private user data. This paper proposes a novel federated learning-based urban noise mapping system, FL-NoiseMap, that significantly enhances the privacy of participating users without adversely affecting the application performance. We list several state-of-the-art urban noise monitoring systems that can be seamlessly ported to the federated learning-based paradigm and show that the existing privacy-preserving approaches can be used as an add-on to enhance participants’ privacy. Moreover, we design an “m-hop” application model modification approach for privacy preservation, unique to FL-NoiseMap. We also describe techniques to maintain data reliability for the proposed application. Numerical experiments on simulated datasets showcase the superiority of the proposed scheme in terms of users’ privacy preservation and noise map reliability. The proposed scheme achieves the lowest average normalized root mean square error in the range of 4% to 7% as the number of participants varies between 500 and 5000 while providing maximum coverage of over 95% among various competing algorithms. The proposed malicious contribution removal framework can decrease the average normalizedroot mean square error by more than 50% for simulations having up to 20% malicious users.
Modifier-numeral word order in the English NP: An FDG analysis
Authors: Keizer Evelien 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
It is generally accepted that the order of elements within the English noun phrase is relatively fixed, and that, in the prefield, determiners (primary and secondary) precede modifiers. This article is concerned with a group of noun phrases exhibiting non-canonical word order, namely those cases in which a modifier precedes a numeral, such as a fabulous two years, a staggering 30 singles, that short fourteen months, and the largest two markets. Using corpus data from the British National Corpus, it is shown that such noun phrases are far more heterogeneous (in terms of the kind of noun, the scope and type of the modifier, the form and number of the determiner, and subject-verb agreement) than assumed in previous studies. It is argued that the variation observed in the data can only be accounted for if different subtypes of such NPs are distinguished, each characterized by its own combination of functional and formal properties. Finally, it is demonstrated how Functional Discourse Grammar, with its function-to-form approach and its different levels and layers of representation, is particularly well-suited to capture the main features of the construction as a whole, as well as the more specific semantic and syntactic properties of each of the subtypes.
Variation in the prosody of illocutionary adverbs
Authors: Kojadinović Zlatan 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIllocutionary adverbs such asfrankly,honestly, andseriouslyhave been commonly analysed as interpersonal (non-truth-conditional) modifiers that are characterised by syntactic and prosodic detachment from the ‘host’ they are associated with. However, recent accounts (e.g.Keizer 2018a) have shown that the formal (syntactic and prosodic) properties of such adverbs do not necessarily follow directly from the semantic non-truth-conditionality towards the main proposition. With respect to the prosodic realisation, such interpersonal adverbs can either be integrated into the respective utterance or detached from it (i.e.form a separate Intonational Phrase [IP]). The prosodic realisation is determined by the specific discourse-pragmatic features of such interpersonal adverbs, namely whether they are intended as separate (Subsidiary) Discourse Acts or whether they are part of a single Discourse Act at the Interpersonal Level (Keizer 2018a, 2018b, 2019, 2020). The aim of this article is to investigate these predictions by looking into the prosodic features of illocutionary adverb on the one hand and their discourse-pragmatic features on the other. It will be argued, based on the prosodic analysis of a set of spoken corpus data, that (i) the formation of separate IP is indeed triggered by the formation of Subsidiary Discourse Act, (ii) the formal properties (position and intonational pattern) are determined by the specific rhetorical function assigned to the respective Discourse Act, and (iii) the prosodic integration correlates with the adverbs being integral part of a single Discourse Act at the Interpersonal Level.
СМЕЖНЫЕ ПРАВА: СРАВНИТЕЛЬНЫЙ АНАЛИЗ НЕОДНОРОДНЫХ ПРАВ
Authors: ШИРКОВА Ирина Владимировна 
Published: November 2022

Реализация прав и свобод человека, в том числе свободы творчества, участия в научно-техническом прогрессе, и использование его благ обеспечивают формирование определенных ресурсов для развития как самого человека, так и человечества в целом. Поэтому реализация смежных прав в современных условиях особенно актуальна, поскольку именно правообладатели этих прав раскрывают новые горизонты распространения и использования творческой и иной информации, направленной на преобразование и совершенствование условий жизни человека и общества. Учитывая расплывчатость и разнородность смежных прав, целесообразно исследовать объекты и субъекты данной категории прав в целях недопущения ограничения их правовой охраны.
В исследовании сущности смежных прав использовался диалектический метод, позволивший комплексно изучить содержание предмета. Обобщение существующих дефиниций и законодательная база дали возможность выделить характерные черты исследуемой категории: для объектов смежных прав характерным признаком является результат, облеченный в определенную форму с помощью, как правило, технических средств. Смежные права являются только совокупностью правовых норм, регламентирующих охрану разнородных прав; основания возникновения смежных прав подразделяется на категории: для одной (исполнитель) — достаточно деятельности, основанной на творческом потенциале, не связанной с материальными затратами, а для других — действий, связанных с определенными затратами. Смежные права возникают и могут реализовываться без соблюдения каких бы то ни было формальностей. Обоснована необходимость расширения субъектного состава в целях обеспечения охраны смежных прав на законодательном уровне.
A new Itinerary planning approach among multiple mobile agents in wireless sensor networks (WSN) to reduce energy consumption

Published: November 2022

one of the important challenges in wireless sensors networks (WSN) resides in energy consumption. In order to resolve this limitation, several solutions were proposed. Recently, the exploitation of mobile agent technologies in wireless sensor networks to optimize energy consumption attracts researchers. Despite their advantage as an ambitious solution, the itineraries followed by migrating mobile agents can surcharge the network and so have an impact on energy consumption. Many researches have dealt with itinerary planning in WSNs through the use of a single agent (SIP: Single agent Itinerary Planning) or multiple mobile agents (MIP: Multiple agents Itinerary Planning). However, the use of multi-agents causes the emergence of the data load unbalancing problem among mobile agents, where the geographical distance is the unique factor motivating to plan the itinerary of the agents. The data balancing factor has an important role especially in Wireless sensor networks multimedia that owns a considerable volume of data size. It helps to optimize the tasks duration and thus optimizes the overall answer time of the network. In this paper, we provide a new MIP solution (GIGM-MIP) which is based not only on geographic information but also on the amount of data provided by each node to reduce the energy consumption of the network. The simulation experiments show that our approach is more efficient than other approaches in terms of task duration and the amount of energy consumption.
Acoustic Field of an Ultrasound Device for Differential Diagnosis of Human Hearing

Published: November 2022

In this paper analyzes the relevance and novelty of using a multielement array in an electroacoustic transducer for differential diagnosis of human inner ear coagulation by changing the pulse duration and direction of radiation. Today the clinical applications of ultrasound are numerous and diverse, and ultrasound diagnostics is one of the most rapidly developing methods in medicine. In recent years the effect of focused ultrasound on the human auditory system has been actively studied. The structure of the human inner ear is in the middle of a system of spaces and channels of bony labyrinths. It is known that the most successful way to the auricular labyrinth is the one with the shortest distance and with the least tissue loss.
In order for the width of the scanning ultrasound beam to remain constant throughout the entire length of probing, the mode of dynamic focusing of the ultrasound beam was considered. The ultrasonic beam in the scanners is formed using a linear multielement array with individual element dimensions of several wavelengths by introducing between the electrical signals sent or received from the elements such delays that ensure that the fields are focused at a given point on the beam axis, and additionally by using acoustic lenses. In practice, the problem is solved by successive focusing of the beam at several fixed distances from the working surface.
Calculations of the geometric dimensions and the study of the acoustic field for the cylindrical wave front created by a linear multielement array of piezoelements are performed. Calculations of the acoustic field distribution in depth at varying pulse duration and at changing the angle of deflection from the axis, with the focal distance unchanged. It is concluded that it is reasonable to use this type of electroacoustic transducer for differential diagnosis of human hearing. From the obtained graphs it was found that an increase in the pulse attenuation coefficient leads to a decrease in the values of the diffraction maximum. It is also shown that the relative amplitude of the diffraction maximum can be reduced by reducing the pulse duration and increasing the number of piezoelectric elements in the working group.
This type of piezoelectric transducer will allow, by changing the angle, to affect all parts of the cochlea of a person, as it is known that each part of the cochlea is responsible for a certain frequency of perception, pick up a certain duration for safe exposure. And it will also be possible to perform acoustic influence on the cochlea to confirm the functioning of the auditory nerves before cochlear implantation.
AI DE VÓS, AI DE NÓS. O caminho de purificação proposto por Jesus em Lucas 11.37-44
Authors: Solano Rossi Luiz Alexandre , Schietti Mariana 
Published: November 2022

Na perícope de Lc 11,37-44 Jesus é convidado por um fariseu para uma refeição e, ao sentar-se à mesa, ele ignora os ritos legais que deveriam ser praticados antes das refeições. Ao percebendo que o fariseu estava espantado, Jesus responde à indignação do mesmo com uma análise sobre a limpeza interior e exterior e logo em seguida profere três ais contra os mesmos. O presente artigo busca demonstrar que a purificação das pessoas não se dá por meio da prática dos ritos religiosos, como era proposto pelo grupo dos fariseus nos tempos de Jesus. Antes, a purificação passa pela prática da justiça, que está ligada a uma disposição interna de cada pessoa.
Integrated Optimization of Hybrid Steam-Solvent Injection in Post-CHOPS Reservoirs with Consideration of Wormhole Networks and Foamy Oil Flow
Authors: Hou Senhan , Gu Daihong , Yang Shikai , Yang Daoyong , Zhao Min 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In this paper, integrated techniques have been developed to optimize performance of the hybrid steam-solvent injection processes in a depleted post-CHOPS reservoir with consideration of wormhole networks and foamy oil flow. With the experimentally determined properties of injected gases and reservoir fluids by performing PVT tests, history matching of the reservoir geological model is completed through the relationship between fluid and sand production profiles and reservoir pressure. Meanwhile, the wormhole network has been inversely determined with the newly developed pressure-gradient-based (PGB) sand failure criterion. Once the history matching is completed, the calibrated reservoir geological model is used to optimize the solvent(s) and CO2 concentrations, provided that thermal energy, injection rates, and flowing bottomhole pressures are chosen as the controlling variables. The genetic algorithm has been modified and used to maximize the objective function of net present value (NPV) while delaying the displacement front as well as extending the reservoir life with optimal oil recovery under various strategies. Depending on the formation pressure and temperature, soaking time is optimized as a function of solvent concentration and fluid properties. Subsequently, considering the wormhole network and foamy oil flow, such a modified algorithm can be used to allocate and optimize the production-injection strategies with the NPV as the objective function.
Field Trial of Nitrogen-Assisted Cyclic Steam Stimulation in Post-CHOPS Wells, Case Study in Sudan

Published: November 2022

Abstract:
This paper presents the key aspects of nitrogen-assisted cyclic steam stimulation field trial at Post-CHOPS wells in FNE field, Sudan. FNE field is a heavy-oil asset with compositional gradient (13.87 to 18.1°API, in-situ viscosity of 226 to 255 cp) in massive unconsolidated sandstones at depths of 1,500 to 1,900 ft, with a permeability of 2 to 9 Darcies and strong bottom-water drive. Initially, cold heavy oil production with sand (CHOPS) was applied to exploit easy oil at upper zones of entire play. When flow rates of CHOPS wells declined to economic limits, or producers were too cool (reservoir temperature 111°F) to pump efficiently, nitrogen-assisted cyclic steam stimulation was to increase reservoir pressure, decrease heavy-oil viscosity, and boost well production. The specific technical points are highlighted below:
In-house studies, including viscosity reduction test and numerical simulations, recommended that steam volume (cold-water equivalent) of 11,442 bbl per cycle based on 268 bbl/ft, with 70 to 75% quality, will be injected into the reservoir at rate of 1,260 bbl/d, nitrogen injection volume per cycle is 4.75 MMscf, soak time is for 5 to 7 days to allow the heat and pressure to distribute more uniform through the reservoir, then go to puff process. Pump is set 30-60 ft below the lowermost perforations to maximize fluids production through keeping fluid-level well below bottom perforations. By the end of pumping, bottomhole flowing pressure can declined to 70 psi. Steam and nitrogen injection sequence at updip wells is to inject steam first, followed by nitrogen injection. For downdip wells, nitrogen injection is the first and steam injection comes later to mitigate water influx. Re-completion strategy: squeeze cement into CHOPS producing zones because they contain wormholes, some communicating with aquifer, and perforate the lower pay interval to extract more viscous heavy oil. Failure risk assessment of production casings: pre-tensioning and full cementing of the casing with thermal cement is adopted in CHOPS wells for post-CHOPS thermal operation. Initial flowback flow rate is limited to less than the level of 500 bbl/d to reduce sanding risk and does not unduly de-pressure the formation at initial production. During pumping process, all fluids are exploited up the tubing string and the annulus is vented the flow-line. Pump works at optimal rate to ensure pressure drawdown less than critical drawdown threshold for sanding and water coning.
Field data confirmed that this trial is successful, with 2 to 3-fold production gain, relatively low water cut and no sanding issue. This technology is a useful option for post-CHOPS wells in the similar heavy-oil assets.
