Strain rate effect on the tensile properties of plain weave aramid, carbon, and glass fabric reinforced monolithic and hybrid composites
Authors: Balıkoğlu Fatih , Demircioğlu Tayfur K. , Diler Ege A. , Ataş Akın 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
The tensile responses of three monolithic composites (aramid, carbon, and glass) and three different interply hybrid composite laminates (aramid/carbon, glass/aramid, and glass/carbon) were studied at quasi-static and intermediate strain rates. Monolithic composites were found to be more sensitive to strain rate than hybrid counterparts. The hybrids with glass layers had the highest sensitivity among the hybrid laminates. Tensile strengths of aramid, carbon, and glass monolithic composites improved by 15.2 %, 10.1 %, and 22.2 %, respectively, as the strain rate was increased from 0.001 s−1 to 10 s−1, while increases in tensile strengths of aramid/carbon, glass/aramid and glass/carbon hybrid laminates were 8.8 %, 17.7 %, and 5.2 %, respectively. Hybridization of glass with aramid gave the highest failure strain gain. Carbon layers located at the centre of the hybrid laminates resulted in increased tensile strength.

Kinship and Community in Climate-Change Theatre: Ecodramaturgy in Practice
Authors: May Theresa J. 
Published: May 2022

AbstractEcodramaturgy, a critical framework that interrogates the implicit ecological values in any play or production, is explained here and then used to demonstrate the central tenets of climate theatre, including theatre’s potential for decolonisation, interspecies understanding, and community engagement.Burning Vision(2002) by Marie Clements employs a ceremonial performance form to unearth the hidden history of uranium mining on Dene lands as it argues for environmental justice and the authority of Indigenous oral traditions.Sila(2014) by Chantal Bilodeau foregrounds the interdependence of culture and community across species. Finally,Salmon Is Everything(2006) by Theresa J. May amplifies the voices of Indigenous communities most affected by ecological loss. Taken together, these plays and their productions underscore the potential for theatre-making to function as a democratising force in the Anthropocene.
Eco-Drama, Multinational Corporations, and Climate Change in Nigeria
Authors: Amaefula Rowland Chukwuemeka 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
Oil explorations by multinational corporations in Nigeria have grave consequences on the ecosystem. Gas flaring, oil spillage, and other forms of land and water pollution seriously degrade the natural environment as well as displace Nigerians from their homes and traditional occupations. Pollution has caused increased flooding, erosion, and dearth of both food and fishes, leading to poverty and hidden hunger, among other problems. More destructive is the reactionary disposition of the Nigerian state to climate change and ecological disasters. Beside the provision of make-shift structures and relief materials to flood victims, there are hardly any proactive efforts on the ground to check the activities of multinational corporations operating in the country. Greg Mbajiorgu’s eco-drama Wake Up Everyone (2011) depicts the challenges of the climate crisis in contemporary Nigeria. A close reading and critical analysis of the play, which is a microcosm of the country, illuminates the ways these challenges affect Nigerians and the need for action. Apart from displacing individuals from their homes, flooding takes a heavy toll on the agricultural sector, as most crops and livestock production systems in Nigeria are not yet fully technology-based and are, therefore, susceptible to environmental degradation. As a result, the flooding of farms and plantations, damaging crops and seedlings, leads to a corresponding degree of food scarcity/insecurity and indeed inflation in the cost of farm produce. This paper concludes that conscious efforts suggested in the play should be made to forestall multinational corporations from further pillaging the environment, and that government functionaries saddled with the task of forging active measures to stem the effects of climate change in the country should rise to their responsibilities.
Alienation, Abjection, and Disgust: Encountering the Capitalocene in Contemporary Eco-Drama
Authors: Vaziri Leila Michelle 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
“We are shaped, to a greater extent than almost any other species, by contact with others. [. . .] Yet what counts now is to win. [. . .] And for this, we have ripped the natural world apart” (Monbiot). This quote stems from a Guardian article that is also printed as an epigraph in Tanya Ronder’s 2015 play Fuck the Polar Bears, and it reveals the connection between the Capitalocene, as described by Jason W. Moore, and contemporary eco-drama: both thematise the “Age of Loneliness” (Monbiot) in which everyone fights against each other. In contemporary drama, this behaviour is frequently reflected in the depiction of isolation and alienation from nature that is expressed in the form of disgust, for instance, by making objects that are associated with nature literally or metaphorically disgusting.To various degrees, the depiction of the Capitalocene in combination with disgust and abjection can be found in Fuck the Polar Bears as well as in Dawn King’s 2011 play Foxfinder. In both plays, disgust is depicted as degrading the relationship between humans and nonhuman nature. The dichotomy of nature and culture then lines up to “a seemingly endless series of human exclusions” (Moore, Introduction 2) and alienates humans from nature. In these plays, a random disgusting object functions as substitute for the border between humans and nature. By making toy polar bears or foxes disgusting, the border between humans and nature, and to some extent between humans and other humans, is redrawn, which leads to an increased sense of isolation and alienation. Therefore, both plays use disgust as a technique to extrapolate the lack of interconnection between humans and nature, which comments on the competitive, isolating, and destructive nature of the Capitalocene.
Production of neutron deficient rare earth radionuclides by heavy ion activation
Authors: Naskar Nabanita , Lahiri Susanta 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
The attempts to produce neutron deficient radioisotopes of rare Earth elements by heavy ion activation are discussed in this review. The heavy ion induced reaction products have large atomic number difference with that of the target; therefore, radiochemical separation of no-carrier-added radio-lanthanides from the target matrix becomes easier. Heavy ion induced reactions also allow the production of rare Earth radionuclides from non-rare Earth target by tailor-made target-projectile combinations, and in those cases, radiochemical separations become even more easier. In general, the cross sections of heavy ion induced reactions are less than those of light charged particle induced reactions. However, some of the heavy ion induced reactions have comparable cross sections with those of light ion induced reactions. The range of heavy ions is also much smaller in the target matrix than that of lighter charged particles. These points hinder application of heavy ion induced reactions to produce radionuclides for nuclear medicine.
New Iterative Methods for Finding Common Fixed Points of Two Non-self Mappings in a Real Hilbert Space
Authors: Tufa Abebe Regassa 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
In this paper, we introduce new iterative methods for approximating common fixed points of two non-self mappings in the framework of real Hilbert spaces. We establish weak and strong convergence results for approximating common fixed points of two nonexpansive non-self mappings. In addition, we establish strong convergence results for approximating common fixed points of two quasi-nonexpansive non-self mappings under appropriate conditions. Our results improve and generalize many of the results in the literature. Moreover, our findings will open the way forward for the study of iterative methods for finding common fixed points of two non-self mappings in Banach spaces more general than Hilbert spaces.
Piloting a semi-structured interview schedule: The influence of MOOC descriptions on potential students
Authors: Hajeer Ahmad , Toptsi Jamil 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) provide digital learning opportunities for students around the world. To reach students, MOOCs must advertise themselves to encourage enrollment. While previous studies have explored the content of MOOC descriptions, an investigation into the rhetorical functions of these descriptions has yet to be carried out. In order to discover more about the features of MOOC descriptions which influence their potential students, this paper details the design and piloting of an interview protocol which can be used to collect data regarding the persuasive impact that MOOC descriptions have on those who read them. Samples of data collected using the instrument are presented to examine the validity of the results, and a reflection is provided which discusses the application of the instrument in future research.

En el presente estudio cualitativo participaron 7 profesionales de selección de docentes, en dos universidades colombianas, para conocer las representaciones sobre competencias emocionales buscadas en los aspirantes a profesores universitarios. Se contrastó el contenido de entrevistas realizadas al equipo de selección en las universidades participantes utilizando la herramienta Atlas Ti v7, 0; se usó wordcloud para analizar frecuencia de términos y la herramienta meaning cloud para análisis de sentimientos. Se encontró que el grupo profesional encargado de la selección busca enrolar docentes emocionalmente estables, que exhiban energía durante el proceso de selección; buscan docentes hábiles en solucionar conflictos en el aula y con adecuado relacionamiento hacia los estudiantes. Estos profesionales del reclutamiento confían en la entrevista como principal herramienta para evaluación de competencias emocionales y recurren a la interpretación del lenguaje no verbal para identificar indicadores de ánimo y de capacidad comunicativa en los candidatos; emergió la representación del docente como “transmisor de conocimientos”. La representación del éxito en selección de nuevos docentes implica candidatos ajustados al statu-quo organizacional de la facultad. Coincidieron los profesionales de selección de personal en tener bajo acceso a información posterior al enganche del candidato docente que les permita evaluar en el mediano plazo las competencias emocionales en los docentes elegidos.
Dynamically Triggered Events in a Low Seismically Active Region of Gujarat, Northwest India, during the 2012 Mw 8.6 Indian Ocean Earthquake
Authors: Dixit Mayank , Ram Bansal Abhey , Mangalalampally Ravi Kumar , Singha Roy Ketan , Teotia Satybir Singh 
Published: May 2022

ABSTRACT
The mainland region of Gujarat, northwest India, is a less investigated region than other parts of India with a low seismicity rate. An Mw &gt;4.7 earthquake has not occurred in this region for 15 yr, and no Mw &gt;5.5 events since 1971. We analyze the local earthquake catalog and waveforms to examine dynamic triggering in the region by the 2012 Mw 8.6 Indian Ocean earthquake, which triggered widespread seismicity globally. Further detection of possibly missing microearthquakes is conducted by applying the matched filter technique to the waveforms. We identify six microearthquakes (∼ML 1.0–2.1) triggered during the surface and coda wave of the 2012 mainshock. Also, an earthquake of Mw 2.6 was likely triggered five hours after the mainshock near Bhavnagar city, because the record since 2006 would indicate such a magnitude event to have only a 0.8% chance of occurring independently any given day. Indeed, only 35 earthquakes with Mw≥2.5 were recorded since 2006 within a 100 km radius of this city. The β-statistics indicate an increase in seismicity and further confirm the triggering. The seismicity rate increased immediately after the 2012 mainshock and continued for three days, indicating a possible delayed triggering. The delayed triggering may be due to the crustal fluid, and/or subcritical crack growth model may be responsible for triggering. Our study suggests that dynamic triggering tends to occur near active faults that have ruptured in ancient times. Other recent earthquakes, for example, 2011 Tohoku-Oki, did not trigger seismicity despite significant peak dynamic stresses values. Investigation of dynamic triggering in regions experiencing infrequent earthquakes can be crucial in understanding the origin of such earthquakes, which can be achieved by grasping the ambient stresses and geodynamic mechanisms in a particular region. Thus, we evaluate character and behavior of high-amplitude surface waves to grasp better the undergoing processes and stress transfer in the intraplate mainland region.

Published: May 2022

The aim of the study is the identification and evaluation of a new antioxidant activity in a potentially new medicinal raw material of Actinidia arguta folia.Materials and methods. The total content of antioxidants was measured on a Tsvet Yauza-01-AA liquid chromatograph using the amperometric method. In parallel, the antioxidant activity of Actinidia arguta extracts was studied in vitro in the following dilution range: 62.5 µg/ml, 125 µg/ml, 250 µg/ml, 500 µg/ml and 1000 µg/ml. Herewith, DPPH, superoxide, and hydroxyl radical inhibitory properties of the analyzed samples were evaluated.The studies of the antioxidant activity with the determination of the activity of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, the concentration of malondialdehyde and diene conjugates, have been conducted in vivo.Results. When studying the antiradical activity (in vitro tests), it was found out that the highest radical-inhibiting activity comparable to the individual compound - quercetin, has the extraction from Actinidia arguta folia, obtained by the extraction with 40% ethyl alcohol. The IC50 value for the given extract in relation to DPPH; superoxide and hydroxyl radical, amounted to 537.6±23.924 µg/ml; 26.6±2.627 µg/ml and 72.6±3.264 µg/ml, respectively, which may indicate that this extract has reducing and radical scavenging properties. In parallel, the study of the total content of antioxidants in terms of quercetin and gallic acid has been carried out. It has also been found out that in the Actinidia arguta folia extract, obtained by the extraction with 40% ethyl alcohol, the content of the antioxidants is maximum.Conclusion. The data obtained using the in vitro test were confirmed in the in vivo study, in which the course application of the Actinidia arguta folia extract, obtained by the extraction with 40% ethyl alcohol to the degree comparable to quercetin, contributed to an increase in the superoxide dismutase activity, a decrease in the lipid peroxidation products. The maximum content of antioxidants for Actinidia arguta folia was 0.73±0.007 and 0.47±0.005 mg/g in terms of quercetin and gallic acid, respectively. The extractant was 40% ethyl alcohol.
