Characterization of Portland Cement Incorporated with FNS by Won Jung Cho, Min Jae Kim, David Su Vin Lee

“…To properly use FNS as a cement replacement, this paper summarizes the following. (1) Changes expected on the oxide composition of FNS powder are due to the forming ores, fluxing stone, and cooling method. (2) The decreasing of the hydration heat evolution rate was detected by hydration heat evolution test and this is due to the low content of CaO and Al2O3 component in FNS. (3) It was found that the incorporation of FNS forms a dense pore structure more than cement mix and this is due to the secondary hydration reactions. (4) Hydration characteristics of FNS were assessed by pozzolanic reactions unexpectedly detected and incorporation of FNS creates C-S-H gel and hydrotalcite. (5) The development of strength was tested by compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and flexural strength. …”

RESEARCH ON THE SMALL PEASANT INDIVIDUAL HOUSEHOLDS IN ROMANIA WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE by Ion MĂRUNȚELU

“…Small peasant households generally meet these requirements of sustainable agriculture, given that they generally have small areas of agricultural land near the house used mainly as family gardens that are worked more with hand tools or small machining which do not destroy soil structure by compaction, and chemicals for fighting diseases, pests and weeds are used little or no use. …”

Les groupes binominaux de type N2’s N1, N1 of N2 et N2N1 by Evelyne Chabert

“…It rejects the existence of a semantic invariant, and proposes that it is the function of N2 – either determinative or modifying – that triggers the speaker’s preference for one structure over the other two. It also ventures the hypothesis that compounds are gaining ground over genitive NPs, a process in line with the diachronic evolution that has gradually turned English into an analytic language.…”

Associative conditioning in gene regulatory network models increases integrative causal emergence by Federico Pigozzi, Adam Goldstein, Michael Levin

“…We analyzed gene regulatory networks, which learn to associate distinct stimuli, using causal emergence, which captures the degree to which an integrated system is more than the sum of its parts. Analyzing 29 biological (experimentally derived) networks before, during, after training, we discovered that biological networks increase their causal emergence due to training. …”

THE IMPACT OF THE EXCHANGE RATE ON TRADE IN AGRIFOOD PRODUCTS AS A COMPONENT PART OF THE BALANCE OF FOREIGN PAYMENTS IN THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA by Elena NIREAN

“…Instead, the competitiveness of domestic products will reduce because they will become more expensive. In the research process there was used the method of induction, initially by general information about the exchange rate and balance of foreign payments, about its structure, and subsequently there was used the analysis of concrete data on trade in agri food products and the balance of payments as well as the dynamics of the national currency depreciation. …”

Plume‐Driven Subduction Termination in 3‐D Mantle Convection Models by Erin Heilman, Thorsten W. Becker

“…Some versions of such plume‐slab interplay may be relevant for geologic events, for example, for the inferred ∼183 Ma Karoo large igneous province formation and associated slab disruption. More recent examples may include the impingement of the Afar plume underneath Africa leading to disruption of the Hellenic slab, and the current complex structure imaged for the subduction of the Nazca plate under South America. …”

THE "LARGE BARYON PUMP OF THE EARTH" AS A NATURAL IMAGE OF THE "TREE OF LIFE" AND AN OBJECT OF ENVIRONMENTAL LAW, WHICH IS INTEGRATED WITH THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT OF MAN by Mykhaylo O. Baymuratov, Volodymyr P. Ozhereliev

“…Extrapolating its dynamics to 4.0 billion years ago - in the early eons of our planet, taking into account objective scientific data on the transformation of substances in the system of geospheres, it can be assumed that the GBP of the Earth was able to transform inanimate matter into living matter. This became a more significant and revolutionary factor, which was directed to the formation of an actor (acting subject) for the beginning of biological evolution and created the conditions for the emergence of man on Earth. …”
