Bezgrebelna O. Healthy lifestyle in the realities of the educational process of physical education of students during the quarantine

The question of a healthy way of life of students in the conditions of quarantine restrictions is considered. The urgency of scientific research is caused by the sharp deterioration of the physical and mental condition of students due to the introduction of quarantine in the country caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and in higher education institutions of distance learning. A necessary main prerequisite for maintaining health in quarantine is a healthy lifestyle, as a system of conditions that contribute to the strengthening and preservation of health. The purpose of the work is to identify areas for ensuring a healthy lifestyle of students during quarantine in the educational process of physical education. Research methods: theoretical analysis, systematization, comparison, generalization of literature data. According to the results of scientific research, the important and unique importance of physical education in the process of ensuring a healthy lifestyle of students has been proved. The directions of ensuring a healthy lifestyle of students during quarantine in the educational process of physical education are systematized: formation of students 'stable motivations for a healthy lifestyle application of all possible technologies in classroom and extracurricular physical education classes to educate students' needs and ability to maintain and improve their health. I; to provide students with a wide range of knowledge, on the basis of which the worldview of a healthy lifestyle should be formed; acquaintance of students with alternative methods of usual physical activity, for counteraction to negative consequences of quarantine and social isolation; development of programs and technological models of forming a healthy lifestyle by means of physical culture; development of methodical recommendations on physical education on the basis of innovative methods adapted for use at home during quarantine, in the situation of impossibility to use sports halls of educational institutions, sports clubs and playgrounds. The practical implementation of the findings is aimed at radical changes that will affect the development of physical education to ensure the health of students.

Theoretical study of pressure dependence of transition temperature of In and Pb

Recently proposed structured local pseudopotential (PP) by Fiolhais et al. has been successfully used to compute superconducting state parameters (SSP): electron-phonon coupling strength (λ), Coulomb pseudopotential (μ*), critical temperature (Tc), effective interaction strength (N0V), isotopic effect parameter (α) and their pressure dependence of non-transition metals In and Pb as a test case. Pressure dependence of the Debye temperature has been computed by Gruneisen model. Present results are in good agreement with experimental and other theoretical results. Present study has been further extended to estimate volume (critical volume) at which λ=μ*, where Tc and N0V becomes zero. The presently used model is found to be transferable at the extreme environment without any adjustment of parameters further alongwith its simplicity and predictivity.

Multilingual Universal Sentence Encoder for Semantic Retrieval

We introduce two pre-trained retrieval focused multilingual sentence encoding models, respectively based on the Transformer and CNN model architectures. The models embed text from 16 languages into a single semantic space using a multi-task trained dual-encoder that learns tied representations using translation based bridge tasks (Chidambaram al., 2018). The models provide performance that is competitive with the state-of-the-art on: semantic retrieval (SR), translation pair bitext retrieval (BR) and retrieval question answering (ReQA). On English transfer learning tasks, our sentence-level embeddings approach, and in some cases exceed, the performance of monolingual, English only, sentence embedding models. Our models are made available for download on TensorFlow Hub.

From the Other Side of the Gun to the Other Side of the Camera: Adapting Despentes' Baise-moi for Cinema

"C'est moins spectacle qu'au cinéma" (72) says Manu in Baise-moi (1993), after her first murder. While this comparison between reality and cinema underlines the lack of effect reality has, compared to the power of images, such a desire for cinematographic effects also represents the protagonists' will to not merely be the agents of their lives but the directors of their cinematography. However, despite the attempt to achieve afilmic aesthetic, the unusual violent and sexual acts performed lack the desired spectacularity. In this article, I argue that the characters' will to direct images and the frustration deriving from the lack of cinematography runs parallel with Virginie Despentes'decision to adapt her novel into a film. Despentes' style, albeit aggressive, does not match the violence of the actions committed by her characters. In mobilizing Robert Stam's concept of adaptation, I show how, in focusing on the performance of the violent and pornographic reality imagined by the protagonists, the adaptation represents the cinematic actualization of the protagonists' actions in the novel. Theirposition on the right side of the gun to shoot at all opponents corresponds to Despentes and Trinh Thi's decision to place themselves on the right side of the camera to challenge a bourgeois voyeuristic audience.

DAMTP-2005-9 Graded Majorana spinors

In many mathematical and physical contexts spinors are treated as Grassmann odd valued fields. We show that it is possible to extend the classification of reality conditions on such spinors by a new type of Majorana condition. In order to define this graded Majorana condition we make use of pseudo-conjugation, a rather unfamiliar extension of complex conjugation to supernumbers. Like the symplectic Majorana condition, the graded Majorana condition may be imposed, for example, in spacetimes in which the standard Majorana condition is inconsistent. However, in contrast to the symplectic condition, which requires duplicating the number of spinor fields, the graded condition can be imposed on a single Dirac spinor. We illustrate how graded Majorana spinors can be applied to supersymmetry by constructing a globally supersymmetric field theory in three-dimensional Euclidean space, an example of a spacetime where standard Majorana spinors do not exist. 1

A new strategy for using banana as an ingredient in the brewing process

Beer is a traditionally fermented beverage made from malted grains of barley, hops, yeast, and water, while banana is an important food crop cultivated widely in tropical and subtropical areas and is one of the major fruits in Brazil. Besides, the banana is also very favorable to food industry (e.g. fermented beverages) due to its rich content on soluble solids, presence of minerals, and providing low acidity. In this context, the objective of this work was to evaluate a new strategy for using banana as adjunct to increase the fermentable sugars and to supply a specific aroma in pilot-plant brewing experiments. For this, static fermentations were conducted in a 180 L cylindrical-conical reactor using 140 L as working volume. Addition of banana was evaluated when changing the concentration of the wort from 10 to 12 ºP and from 10 to 13.5 ºP (ºP is the weight of the extract or the sugar equivalent in 100 g solution, at 20 ºC) and fermented under a constant temperature of 10 and 12.5 ºC, respectively. The results showed that the increment in the initial sugar concentration (12 to 13.5 ºP, due to the use of banana juice as adjunct), and in the temperature (10 to 12.5 ºC), increased approximately 17% the ethanol productivity. Thus, it was concluded that by using of simple preparation techniques of banana juice, banana can be used as adjunct in brewing processes, helping in the development of new products as well as in the elaboration of more concentrated worts when compared the traditional brewing worts.

The Decomposition of <i>cis</i>‐Fused Cyclopenteno‐1,2,4‐Trioxanes induced by Ferrous Salts and some oxophilic reagents

Abstract Two cis ‐fused cyclopenteno‐1,2,4‐trioxanes, 1a and 1b , were subjected to Zn in AcOH or FeCl 2 · 4H 2 O in MeCN. In the first case, the main course was deoxygenation to give cyclopentanone ( 18 ) and the 1,4‐diphenyl‐ or 1,4‐bis(4‐fluorophenyl)cyclopent‐3‐ene‐1,2‐diol 10 ( Scheme 5 ). In the second case, isomerization chiefly occurred resulting in the formation of a dimer 9 of the respective 3,5‐diaryl‐5‐hydroxycyclopent‐2‐enyl 5‐hydroxypentanoates 8 ( Scheme 3 ).

Inverse design of polymer-based polarization-insensitive wavelength demultiplexers

The unpredictable polarization of light in network fibers necessitates polarization-independent wavelength demultiplexing transceivers for reliable optical communications. This work pioneers the integration of polymer refractive index tunability with topology optimization-based inverse design to develop high-performance two- and four-channel polarization-insensitive wavelength demultiplexers (PIWDMs) that operate across both O-band and C-band, addressing polarization challenges with an ultra-compact, easily fabricable design for photonic integrated circuits. Optimization studies show that a polymer refractive index of 1.7 enables effective optical mode confinement and reduces scattering loss, making it an ideal material for polymer-based PIWDMs. Optimal waveguide dimensions were determined by examining two-channel PIWDMs of different sizes, with mode profiles and transmission spectra used to guide the design. Simulations indicate that the best-performing two-channel PIWDM achieves an insertion loss (IL) below 1 dB, crosstalk (CT) under -17 dB, and polarization-dependent loss (PDL) below 0.32 dB. This study also evaluated the fabricability of the designs across various minimum feature sizes and their tolerance to fabrication errors. Utilizing optimized structures across varied footprint sizes and initial design points, we developed a high-performance four-channel PIWDM achieving IL between 0.87 and 1.48 dB for both TE and TM polarizations, CT from -17.28 to -23.66 dB, and PDL below 0.61 dB. Our proposed PIWDMs present a promising solution for creating easily fabricable, high-performance integrated communication devices with efficient signal transmission.

Evaluation of grain refining performance of aluminum cast using TP-1 test mold

AA-TP1 (Standard Test Procedure for Aluminum Alloy Grain Refiners; TP-1 test) is one of the evaluation tests of aluminum grain refiner. Although it is the most well-maintained test at present, it is not easy to perform the test by academic institutions because it requires a large amount of molten metal. In this study, we propose new evaluation method of grain refining performance of aluminum cast using TP-1 test mold. Effects of temperature of molten metal, holding time after addition of refiner (Al-5%Ti-1%B) and preheating temperature of the mold for microstructure of as-cast pure Al were examined. Obtained results were compared with the microstructure obtained by conventional TP-1 test.

1916. Evaluation of nasal swab collection methods on a university campus during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

Abstract Background Characterizing SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks on university campuses is critical for informed public health measures and understanding transmission dynamics. Figure 1.Dropbox and Kiosk Samples Collected September 10, 2021 to April 23, 2022. Methods Faculty, staff, and students at a major public university in Seattle, WA, USA were enrolled in a COVID-19 testing study. Individuals could test using observed self-swabs at on-campus kiosks or unobserved self-swabs using a kit and returning it to a dropbox on campus. Sample collection volume for observed self-swabs was limited by staffing and space. All samples were returned to the laboratory and tested for SARS-CoV-2 by qRT-PCR. Results From September 10, 2021 to April 23, 2022, 38,400 individuals were enrolled in the study. Of these individuals, 5,089 used dropboxes only, 14,421 used kiosks only, and 5,820 used both. A total of 21,653 dropbox swabs and 75,493 observed self-swabs were collected. Median age was similar between individuals using dropboxes and observed self-swabs (20 vs. 22 years). A greater proportion of dropbox users were students compared to faculty and staff (students made up 83% of dropbox only population, 75% of kiosk only, and 86% of both, χ² p-value&amp;lt; 0.0001). Symptom data was reported for 65,349 swabs. Dropbox users were less likely to have symptoms compared to observed self-swab users (24% of swabs vs. 54%, χ² p-value&amp;lt; 0.0001). SARS-CoV-2 positivity was slightly lower for dropboxes compared to kiosks (4% vs. 5%; p=0.001). Dropboxes were highly utilized during periods of increased testing demand, including after academic breaks and variant emergence (Figure 1). Of the total tests distributed for use, a greater proportion of dropbox kits were unable to be resulted (6%) compared to observed self-swab kits (0.02%). Conclusion Dropboxes provided a flexible, high-volume collection method at times of increased testing demand. Individuals who used dropboxes were less likely to report symptoms and slightly less likely to test positive, suggesting a role for dropbox utilization in high-risk asymptomatic individuals during periods of high community transmission on a university campus.

Step consistency active control method for inertial piezoelectric actuator using embedded strain gauges

Inertial piezoelectric actuators (IPAs) are widely used in micro–nano manipulation, biomedicine, and other fields as the simple structure and excitation signal. However, the step consistency is difficult to guarantee in a large stroke range due to the limited machining accuracy of the mover and inherent roll back, which limits the practical application in these precision fields. Therefore, a step consistency active control method for IPAs is proposed based on bending hybrid motions, which uses embedded strain gauges as the force sensors to acquire the pressure between the mover and the actuator. The IPA is driven by horizontal bending motion, and the pressure can be dynamically adjusted by vertical bending motion to ensure the constant pressure and achieve a constant step. Experiments results show that the maximum standard deviation of the step is 0.41 µm under the active control of 350 Vp–p and 1 Hz driving voltage within 2 mm stroke range in 500 driving cycles, and the maximum standard deviation of the step is 1.14 µm under the non-active control with the same conditions, which show that the proposed method evidently improves the step consistency of IPA in a large stroke range.

Continuous Existence, Universe: the dynamics resulting from its maximum states of contraction and expansion (Cosmology from Vanishing Dimensions)

The evolution of the Universe is observable when the expansive motion already exists; thus, the definition of universal states (before the beginning and after the end of the expansion) with zero kinetic energy can be a challenge to be solved by parallel analysis. Considering that a complete description of the Universe can provide important insights, the logic of conceptual connections is used as an alternative; in this sense, an exclusive presence of linear Space (1D) in momentary states of maximum contraction and expansion is analyzed, with our Universe (3D Space) considered as created and existing between these extremes. The concept of rest mass energy became applicable, revealing that the complete evolution of the Universe is spatially dynamic in a permanent time dimension, allowing for the relative maintenance of any existence.

Decorated Walls, Description, and Cultural Memory. Between Byzantium, Persia, and Early Islam

While very few wall mosaics or paintings from the early Byzantine buildings of the eastern Mediterranean survive, texts describing them help supplement the material corpus. Two ninth-century texts that have been omitted from discussions of decorated walls, al-Buh.turī’s Arabic poem “Īwān Kisrā” and the Greek Letter of the Three Patriarchs, can expand our idea of what kinds of images Byzantine, Persian, and later Umayyad and Abbasid viewers might have seen in their spaces of worship and rule. These descriptions of what were likely mosaics in the Sasanian palace at Ctesiphon and the Church of the Nativity at Bethlehem showcase the potency of wall mosaics, enabling viewers from different societies to communicate and even shape their cultural and religious identities when encountering images from other traditions. The presence of mosaics in these two texts encourages us to widen our view of the audiences of Byzantine, Sasanian, and early Islamic works of monumental art.

A New 6-Degree-of-Freedom 3-Leg Parallel Manipulator

From their inception in the first half of the last century, parallel robots have advanced and diversified with several key goals. Among these, increased workspace size and kinematic performance take precedence. Many parallel architectures have been proposed to maximize such metrics; these often take the form of novel joint combinations or linkage configurations. Such studies on a new parallel robot are the focus of this thesis.\nThis thesis summarizes the work in prototyping, validation, and theory development of a new 6 degree-of-freedom, 3-leg parallel manipulator whose legs are in RRRS configuration. This arrangement of legs, with two powered revolute joints at its base, a passive revolute joint between its two links, and a spherical joint connecting to the end effector, warrants study. An initial prototype was constructed; the resultant testing and the manipulability analysis it provides are discussed. An improved derivation of the inverse kinematics for the manipulator is presented, along with a derivation for the manipulator’s Jacobian. This Jacobian allowed for the study of performance metrics such as torque requirements, manipulability, singularities, and stiffness. An optimization scheme was executed to maximize the workspace of the manipulator as well; the results were both reported and used to plan a second, larger-scale prototype. This prototype was designed, constructed, evaluated, and re-designed to mitigate failure modes.\nThe presented development forms a collection of critical strides forward for the system. Such a collection will be the foundation of future work in more precise optimization, finer control, and theoretical development.\nAdvisor: Carl A. Nelson

Combined Computational and Experimental Studies of Trans- and Cis-Isomers of Potassium Diaquabis(Oxalato)Chromate (III)

The trans- and cis- isomers of potassium diaquabis(oxalato)chromate (III) were studied computationally and experimentally. The structures of trans- and cis- configurations of [Cr(H 2 O) 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 2 ] - were optimized by DFT methodology with various functionals namely: B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, TPSS, PBE, M06-L and ωB97X-D along with the more sophisticated MP2 method. The calculations show that the most stable forms for both isomers are in quartet states. The results from all DFT methods reveal that the cis- isomer is literally more stable than the trans- isomer with the lower average relative energy of 2.1 kcal/mol. These are consistent with the results from MP2 calculation and experimental observation. The absorption wavelengths for the excited states of trans- and cis -structures were calculated by the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) method. For the experiments, the trans- and cis- isomers of potassium diaquabis(oxalato)chromate (III) were synthesized and characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Both isomers have two maximum absorption wavelengths at 415 and 560 nm.
