Authors: Gómez Isaías De la Rosa , Barrera Jesús Alfredo Liévanos 
Published: December 2022

Solid Urban Waste (SUW) and Special Handling (EHW) generated in the Institution are handled in 200-liter plastic containers with the appropriate identification according to the type of waste and the race, placed in the buildings of each of the races; the waste is separated by the students following the criterion of the 4 Rs (Reduce, reduce, reuse and recycle). Reusable waste is used for students to make different products in the reuse workshop of the Institutional Environmental Program (IEP) such as paper pads, acetate pencil holders, pens, paper holder and paper board, among others for use by the Institution's population. With the organic waste (OR) compost is prepared in the composting center, which is used to fertilize the green areas. The recyclable waste is sold obtaining an economic benefit that allows the operation of the activities carried out by the (IEP). The (EHW) are concentrated in the “green point” to be sent to the “recyclers”. The alkaline batteries, the Institution collects them temporarily, giving the service to the population of the Toluca valley to be sent to confinement by the municipality of Toluca. The use of Solid Urban Waste allows to form a sustainable environmental culture in the population of the Institution, such as savings in the consumption of paper, financing in the operation of the (IEP) and supporting the economy of the students.Keyword: Solid waste, paper, composting, reuse, recyclable

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Urban expansion caused numerous geological hazards, particularly in the mountainous areas. In this article, the unsaturated soil mechanics combined with a numerical method is applied to build the rainfall thresholds for the Xiangmi Lake slope in early warning. The drainage mechanism in soil slope under different rainfall conditions has been studied. Then, the actual rainfall data collected in the rainy season are taken as the rainfall condition to simulate the actual rainfall situation. The corresponding safety factor of the slope under the rainfall has been calculated and compared with the improved deformation tangential angle criterion for the slope safety prediction. The tangent angle can be used as the judgment basis to classify the early warning levels of a rainstorm, which helps to establish the early warning model of slope rainfall and guide the landslide early warning.
Identifying driving factors of the runoff coefficient based on the geographic detector model in the upper reaches of Huaihe River Basin
Authors: Li Xinchuan , Niu Yun , He Qiaoning , Wang Huaijun 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Various climate and watershed characteristics determine the runoff coefficient (RC), and their interactions are complicated. Understanding the driving factors of the RC is important for understanding the long-term water balance and how it might change. Using the upper reaches of the Huaihe River Basin as the study area, remote sensing data were used to produce a RC map. The geographical detector was selected to quantify the individual and interactive influences of 13 driving factors on the RC. The results revealed that moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer evapotranspiration (ET) data can be used to produce a mean average RC map based on the water balance equation. The dominant factors influencing the RC were found to vary at different scales. Precipitation had the largest correlation coefficient with the RC at the watershed scale. For the pixel scale, results from the geographical detector indicated that actual evapotranspiration (AET) and precipitation had the highest explanatory rate for the RC in the small watershed region and the whole study area (0.785 and 0.248, respectively). Climate factors, elevation, and normalized difference vegetation index had a substantial influence on the RC. Any two factors exhibited bilinear or nonlinear enhanced relationships in their interactions. The largest interactions between the factors were AET and precipitation, which exceeded 0.900. This study serves to better understand and explain runoff’s complex interrelationships.
Are all chemical reactions in principle reversible? Thermodynamic distinction between “conceptually complete” and “practically complete” reactions
Authors: Ciccioli Andrea 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Among the chemical reactions having a pronounced thermodynamic driving force to the formation of products, a distinction has to be made between processes which attain a chemical equilibrium state very much shifted towards the products and those where the final equilibrium state corresponds to the truly complete consumption of reactant(s), i.e. where a true chemical equilibrium is actually not attained under the given conditions. Based on a few selected examples, two thermodynamic arguments are led which rationalise the above distinction from different points of view: a phase-rule point of view and a Gibbs energy minimization approach. “Conceptually complete” reactions involve pure phases and, as a consequence, establishing chemical equilibrium would imply a negative variance, what is avoided by the complete consumption of one or more phases. In the Gibbs energy approach, “conceptually complete” reactions and “practically complete” ones can be distinguished (at fixed temperature and pressure) by the different way to attain the minimum Gibbs energy condition, respectively with sharp (not differentiable) and flat (zero derivative) minimum points as a function of the extent of reaction ξ.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
In this paper, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrated photothermal nonlinearities of both forward and backward scattering intensities from quasi-perfect absorbing silicon-based metasurface with only λ/7 thickness. The metasurface is efficiently heated up by photothermal effect under laser irradiation, which in turn modulates the scattering spectra via thermo-optical effect. Under a few milliwatt continuous-wave excitation at the resonance wavelength of the metasurface, backward scattering cross-section doubles, and forward scattering cross-section reduces to half. Our study opens up the all-optical dynamical control of the scattering directionality, which would be applicable to silicon photonic devices.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
In this article, the correlation between components and molecular structures of base bitumen and properties of high-dosage styrene-butadiene-styrene–modified bitumen (HSMB) for waterproof membrane was investigated. Saturates, aromatics, resins, and asphaltenes (SARA components) of eight base bitumens from different crude oils used to prepare HSMB were analyzed by column chromatography, and the molecular structures of these base bitumens were obtained by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, gel permeation chromatography, elemental analysis, and an improved Brown-Ladner calculation method. Softening point and low-temperature flexibility tests were used to estimate the high- and low-temperature performance of HSMBs. The results showed that the highest softening point of the HSMBs was 119.2°C, whereas the lowest was 102.5°C. The best flexibility of HSMB was −24°C, and the worst was −10°C. The softening point of HSMB raised with the increase of the content of saturates and aromatics, aromatic carbon ratio (fA), and condensation index (CI) while decreasing with the increase of H/C. The flexibility of HSMBs was most significantly influenced by the content of saturates, and when the saturate content was 17 %, the flexibility was optimal. However, the flexibility of HSMB was poor when the number average molecular weight (Mn) of bitumen was large. To prepare HSMB with excellent performance, it is recommended that the content of saturates should be between 12 and 17 %, aromatics content should be between 45 and 55 %, resins and asphaltenes content should not be excessive, and fA &gt; 0.25, CI &gt; 0.17, H/C ≤ 1.55.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Mechanical behavior of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) was investigated in this study with experimental and numerical studies. Specimens were fabricated by using a three-dimensional (3D) printer with horizontal and vertical deposition directions. Quasistatic tension tests at strain rates of 0.01/s and 0.1/s and dynamic compression tests at strain rates of 3,500/s, 6,000/s, and 7,500/s were performed at room temperature. Dynamic deformation behavior of test specimen was investigated via 3D Lagrangian method in LS-Dyna software with Johnson-Cook and Piecewise Linear Plasticity material models. Simulations were conducted with an adequate element size determined by a mesh dependency study. Johnson-Cook strength model parameters of ABS were determined and validated by simulation studies. Experimental results showed that increase of strain rate at tension and compression conditions led to increase of strengths for both vertically and horizontally deposited specimens. Under low strain rates, specimens were exposed to strain softening followed by strain hardening. However, under high strain rates, strain softening was observed after maximum stress was achieved. Strain softening behavior observed in dynamic compression tests was attributed to adiabatic heating in the specimen during testing. Furthermore, it has been observed that deposition direction of specimen with regard to applied load direction is significant for the mechanical strength of the material in quasistatic and dynamic tests. Simulation results for dynamic compression tests under high strain rates showed good agreement with test results in terms of final dimensions of test specimens. Results showed that Johnson-Cook material model is more accurate for modelling dynamic behavior of ABS than Piecewise Linear Plasticity model. Additionally, higher error values were observed with increasing strain rates in simulations.
The Organic and the Eclectic in César Daly’s “De l’architecture de l’avenir”
Authors: He Gary Huafan 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
In The Organic and the Eclectic in César Daly’s “De l’architecture de l’avenir,” Gary Huafan He explores Daly’s concept of eclecticism as a critical discourse in the context of nineteenth-century ideas about naturalism and architectural style. In the 1869 essay that is the focus of this article, Daly narrated the “social evolution” of architecture as a process oscillating between organic and eclectic phases and mapped the history of style onto a parallel movement of French political regimes from antiquity to the Second Empire. Written after the fierce academic debates that took place in Paris in the 1860s and immediately prior to the tumultuous events of 1870–71, “De l’architecture de l’avenir” demonstrates the critical intersection between the romantic theory of architecture and nineteenth-century French politics. This key text in Daly’s oeuvre challenges contemporary understandings by demonstrating the vital role of eclecticism in the development of a modern architectural style.

AbstractAdenosine N6‐methylation (m6A) and N6,2′‐O‐dimethylation (m6Am) are regulatory modifications of eukaryotic mRNAs. m6Am formation is catalyzed by the methyl transferase phosphorylated CTD‐interacting factor 1 (PCIF1); however, the pathophysiological functions of this RNA modification and PCIF1 in cancers are unclear. Here, we show that PCIF1 expression is upregulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) and negatively correlates with patient survival. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated depletion of PCIF1 in human CRC cells leads to loss of cell migration, invasion, and colony formation in vitro and loss of tumor growth in athymic mice. Pcif1 knockout in murine CRC cells inhibits tumor growth in immunocompetent mice and enhances the effects of anti‐PD‐1 antibody treatment by decreasing intratumoral TGF‐β levels and increasing intratumoral IFN‐γ, TNF‐α levels, and tumor‐infiltrating natural killer cells. We further show that PCIF1 modulates CRC growth and response to anti‐PD‐1 in a context‐dependent mechanism with PCIF1 directly targeting FOS, IFITM3, and STAT1 via m6Am modifications. PCIF1 stabilizes FOS mRNA, which in turn leads to FOS‐dependent TGF‐β regulation and tumor growth. While during immunotherapy, Pcif1‐Fos‐TGF‐β, as well as Pcif1‐Stat1/Ifitm3‐IFN‐γ axes, contributes to the resistance of anti‐PD‐1 therapy. Collectively, our findings reveal a role of PCIF1 in promoting CRC tumorigenesis and resistance to anti‐PD‐1 therapy, supporting that the combination of PCIF1 inhibition with anti‐PD‐1 treatment is a potential therapeutic strategy to enhance CRC response to immunotherapy. Finally, we developed a lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and chemically modified small interfering RNAs (CMsiRNAs)‐based strategy to silence PCIF1 in vivo and found that this treatment significantly reduced tumor growth in mice. Our results therefore provide a proof‐of‐concept for tumor growth suppression using LNP‐CMsiRNA to silence target genes in cancer.

After the West: Conrad and Nabokov in Long-Wave Literary History
Authors: Esty Jed 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe Secret Agent and Lolita are among the most influential novels of the last century. Both describe European lodgers who insinuate themselves into nuclear families that serve as symbolic cocoons inside the most powerful nation-states on earth in 1907 and 1955, respectively. These two upmarket infiltration novels track an uneasy movement into the heart of Anglo-American darkness. Taken together, they also describe the arc of cultural capital traveling across the Atlantic. They orbit a myth of the stable West that can be neither disavowed nor dismantled. What can we learn now from the historical relation between these novels, set within the dilapidated metanarratives of Pax Britannica and the American Century? Is there a post-Western future for anglophone literary studies? To address those questions, this essay combines close formal analysis of Joseph Conrad and Vladimir Nabokov with a test run of current world systems and longue durée reading methods.
