Solvothermal synthesis of nanoflakes-assembled hierarchical ZnWO4 microspheres as highly-efficient adsorbents for Pb2+ removal

The simple synthesis of adsorbents with excellent efficiency is highly desirable, especially in removing heavy metal ions in wastewater. Herein, via an ethylene glycol (EG)-assisted solvothermal route, well-dispersed nanoflakes-assembled 3D hierarchical ZnWO4 microspheres have been prepared and evaluated as the adsorbents for the removal of Pb2+. The reaction time played vital roles in the morphological evolution process from nanoflakes to hierarchical microspheres. By taking advantage of the unique hierarchical structures, the electrostatic adsorption and larger specific surface areas (101.26 m2/g), a high adsorption efficiency for Pb2+ is achieved (up to 100% within 5 min at 100 mg/L) and the maximum adsorption capacity is 403.23 mg/g. The present work will open a new avenue to design adsorbents with high capacity and greatly expand the applications of ZnWO4 micro/nanomaterials for heavy metal ions removal.

Study on dynamic characteristics of transient high-speed water jet impacting into and out water

This research investigates the physical mechanism and dynamic characteristics of morphological evolution of transient high-speed water jet impacting target plates above and below the water layer. Two experimental systems were used to measure the jet velocity and wall pressure, capture the jet morphology under different conditions, and obtain the influence relationship between the water layer and the transient high speed water jet. A numerical method based on VOF was used to observe the morphological change process of the jet tip at the central section. When the jet does not pass through the water layer and impinges upward on the target plate in the air, the mushroom-shaped annular ligament and obvious tip are formed at the front of the jet. When the jet impinges on the target plate in the air through the water layer, a transient pulsed high-speed water jet is formed. When the jet impinges on the target plate under the water layer through the still air, the front end of the jet forms a tip with elevated curvature and short length. With the shift of the thickness of the water layer and the quality of the explosion, single-layer or multilayer tower tips, different forms of cavitation bubble groups and bullet impact ligament and other physical phenomena can be observed in the tip formation region. It is concluded that the water layer plays a crucial role in the dynamic characteristics of transient high-speed water jet.

THE SYNTACTIC BEHAVIOR OF –LYADVERBS AND –LY ADJECTIVES

This paper is an attempt to demonstrate the syntactic behavior of -ly adverbs and -ly adjectives. It mainly deals with -ly as an inflectional suffix that forms adverbs and adjectives It is hypothesized that there are differences between adjective-forming –ly and adverb-forming –ly.The researcher first made general and specific observations about the morphological processes of -ly adverbs and -ly adjectives. Since the study focuses on a linguistic phenomenon, its data is a set of -ly adverbs and -ly adjectives used as examples to support the hypothesis. The importance of studying the syntactic behavior of -ly stems from the fact that thousands of English adjectives and adverbs are created by adding the suffix "-ly" to their roots. Despite the fact that both adjective-forming –ly and adverb-forming –ly bring about new words and they occur at the end of the word’s root, there are still striking differences related to the occurrence and morphological derivation.
 In conclusion, adjectives and adverbs that are made by adding adjective- and adverb-forming –ly to bases called "nouns or adjectives" are plentiful in English. Words known as de-nominal adjectives, de-adjectival adverbs, and de-adjectival adjectives are the products of this morphological process.

Galaxy evolution in compact groups – I. Revealing a transitional galaxy population through a multiwavelength approach

ABSTRACT Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies show members with morphological disturbances, mainly products of galaxy–galaxy interactions, thus making them ideal systems to study galaxy evolution, in high-density environment. To understand how this environment affects the properties of galaxies, we select a sample of 340 CGs in the Stripe 82 region, for a total of 1083 galaxies, and a sample of 2281 field galaxies as a control sample. By performing a multiwavelength morphological fitting process using Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey data, we divide our sample into early-type galaxies (ETGs), late-type galaxies (LTGs), and transition galaxies using the r-band Sérsic index and the colour (u − r). We find a bimodal distribution in the plane of the effective radius – Sérsic index, where a secondary ‘peculiar’ galaxy population of smaller and more compact galaxies is found in CGs, which is not observed in the control sample. This indicates that galaxies are undergoing a morphological transformation in CGs. In addition, we find significant statistical differences in the distribution of specific star-formation rate (sSFR) when we compare both environments for LTGs and ETGs. We also find a higher fraction of quenched galaxies and a lower median sSFR in CGs than in the control sample, suggesting the existence of environmental effects favouring the cessation of star formation, regardless of galaxy type. Our results support the notion that CGs promote morphological and physical transformations, highlighting their potential as ideal systems for galaxy pre-processing.

The Interaction Between Interface Morphology of Particles with Anisotropic Effect of Interface Kinetics in an Alloy Melt

AbstractThe conventional theory of crystal growth presents an irreversible outward increase of the crystal size through solute deposition on the nuclei; however, the asymptotic solution of the dynamics model of the particle reveals that the crystal growth undergoes a locally reversible inward growth process in the early stage of crystal growth. Immediately after nucleation, some parts of the interface first grow inward through solute rejection along certain crystal orientations from the interface of nucleation, while the other parts of the interface grow outward through solute deposition along other crystal orientations. Until the inward growth attains a certain distance, the interface grows outward along each crystal orientation. This growth behavior is attributed to the interaction between interface morphology of particles with the anisotropic effect of interface kinetics. Through a systematic variation of the anisotropy parameters, the particle exhibits a continuous transition from one growth morphology to other growth morphologies. During the morphological transition process, as initial concentration increases, the growth of the particle is inhibited in the preferred growth directions, whereas it is facilitated in other growth directions. As a result, the interface morphologies of the particle with different petal‐shaped morphologies in the early stage of crystal growth are formed.

Brazilian Venetan is going leísta

This paper discusses language variation in heritage languages, focussing on a peculiar use of the dative clitic ghe in Brazilian Venetan, a heritage northern Italo-Romance variety. Corpus data and grammaticality judgments by native speakers showed that, unlike homeland varieties of Venetan, the clitic is used in doubling constructions with both indirect and direct objects. Conversely, accusative clitics do not appear in doubling constructions in Brazilian Venetan, but are limited to cases of resumption of dislocated constituents. This phenomenon is compared to a parallel use of dative clitics with direct objects in some previously described leísta varieties of Spanish. I will show that the type of variation attested in Brazilian Venetan accusative and dative clitics depends on different conditions on cliticisation of the two elements. Specifically, while accusative clitics are pronouns that undergo a morphological process of incorporation, dative clitics are merged as agreement markers on the finite verb. The analysis also captures a diachronic change in the distribution of dative clitics in the diachrony of Venetan.

PROSES PEMBENTUKAN DERIVASI DAN INFLEKSI PADA RUBRIK EDUKASI KOMPAS.COM

The word formation process is inseparable from the morphological process of affixation. The formation of verb word classes can be derived from verb, noun, adjective, and adverb word classes. This phenomenon causes morphological symptoms of derivation and inflection. Derivation is the process of forming new words that cause changes in lexical identity, while inflection does not change lexical identity. This study aims to obtain a description of the process of forming derivation words and forming inflected words on Kompas.com. Research using qualitative methods. The data and data sources used are online news Kompas.com, the January 2022 edition of the education rubric. The analysis technique used in analyzing the data uses the distribution method with the direct element division technique. The results of this study found words that experienced derivation and inflection with various kinds of forming affixes. Derivative and inflected affixes in Kompas.com consist of prefixes, suffixes, confixes and combinations of affixes. Initial prefixes or affixes are in the form of meN-, di-, ke-, ber-, ter, se-, and peN-; suffixes or final affixes consist of -an, -i, and -kan; confix affixes have forms of ke-an, penN-an, per-an, and beran; as well as combinations of affixes consisting of the forms of memper-/-kan, meN- -i, di-/-i, meN-/-kan, di-/-kan, diper-/-kan, and diper-/-i. The phenomenon of the affix meN- is an affix that forms an active verb, while the affix di- forms a passive verb. Also found ter- and ke-an affixes which are affixes forming anti-passive ergative verbs. Based on the productivity aspect, inflection is more productive than derivation.

Visualizing the multi-level assembly structures of conjugated molecular systems with chain-length dependent behavior

It remains challenging to understand the structural evolution of conjugated polymers from single chains to solvated aggregates and film microstructures, although it underpins the performance of optoelectrical devices fabricated via the mainstream solution processing method. With several ensemble visual measurements, here we unravel the morphological evolution process of a model system of isoindigo-based conjugated molecules, including the hidden molecular assembly pathways, the mesoscale network formation, and their unorthodox chain dependence. Short chains show rigid chain conformations forming discrete aggregates in solution, which further grow to form a highly ordered film that exhibits poor electrical performance. In contrast, long chains exhibit flexible chain conformations, creating interlinked aggregates networks in solution, which are directly imprinted into films, forming interconnective solid-state microstructure with excellent electrical performance. Visualizing multi-level assembly structures of conjugated molecules provides a deep understanding of the inheritance of assemblies from solution to solid-state, accelerating the optimization of device fabrication.

Experimental study on visualization of TBAB hydrate formation in confined small channels

Hydrate crystals' microscopic characteristics and agglomerating morphologies play an important role in the hydrate reaction equipment's flow assurance and heat transfer. In order to study the formation process of hydrate, experimental quartz tubes with small diameters were selected, and a fully visualized flow loop system was established. The study investigated the effects of supercooling, solution concentration, tube diameter, and flow rate on hydrate blockage time and agglomeration morphology. The results show that under the same supercooling conditions, the density of single crystal hydrate formed in 10 wt%-20 wt% TBAB (Tetra-n-butylammonium bromide) hydrate solution is low, and the crystal front appears needle-like or sword-like, which is conducive to mass and heat transfer. High concentration TBAB solution(30 wt%-40 wt%) can form dense hydrate crystals, and the tip effect was significantly weakened. For low concentration TBAB solution, the increased flow rate can accelerate the formation of new nuclei and inhibit the growth of large crystals. Grout solutions with different particle sizes can be obtained by adjusting the flow rate. It was found that the initial morphology of TBAB hydrate crystals included spherical and cylindrical shapes, and the morphological evolution process of a single hydrate crystal was similar. Finally, a microscopic physical model of the TBAB hydrate growth and aggregation process was established.

Zero-derived forms in the mental lexicon: Experimental evidence from Italian

Abstract Our paper investigates how zero-affixed verbal forms (specifically, denominal and deadjectival verbs) are processed by native speakers of Italian during visual word recognition. More specifically, we verify whether, and possibly to what extent, the processing of such forms differs from or resembles the processing of verbs resulting from two other productive word formation schemas in Italian, i. e., suffixation and parasynthesis. The interest of such a comparison lies in the fact that the three considered schemas behave similarly from a functional point of view, i. e.: i) they all change the category of the base, ii) they select the same base category (nouns and adjectives), and iii) they show similar semantic characteristics. However, this shared function is realized by means of different formal exponents (both overt and covert) which might imply different degrees of complexity. Crucially, suffixation and parasynthesis display an overt derivational marking, while zero-affixation obviously does not. On such premises, to verify whether the strength of connections between morphologically complex words and their bases is affected by the nature of the transcategorization marking (overt v s vs covert) or whether other factors play a more determining role, we conducted a psycholinguistic experiment involving a lexical decision task combined with the masked priming paradigm, which allows focusing on such relations in the mental lexicon. Results indicate that the processing of zero-affixed verbs resembles that of suffixed but differs from that of parasynthetic forms. We interpret such results discussing the possibility that the perception of a morphological relationship might depend less on the overtness of the marking, and more on the overall derivational complexity of the morphological process.

Word Formation of Indonesian and English Used by Indonesian Children in Playing Online Games

Online games become more popular among the children since the spread of Covid virus over the world in 2019. Childs became aware of playing online games though most of the plays use English as their communication. English language, as their second language must be comprehended as well. Word formation process of Indonesian and English language color the conversation. The study aims at analyzing word formation process of Indonesian and English language used by some Indonesian children when they are playing online games. The method used in this study is a qualitative method. According to Cresswell, a qualitative method is an approach or a research to explore and understand a central phenomenon. To understand this central phenomenon, the study was done by using qualitative observation and qualitative documents. The speaking of the participants was recorded during their playing on online games and transcribed phonemically. The transcription is classified into three parts. They are morphological process in English, morphological process in Indonesian, and morphological process in English and Indonesian. After classifying the data, then it’s analyzed by using Alwi and O’Grady theories. The results show that there is morphological process constructed on their conversation during their playing such as derivational and inflectional affixes, reduplication in word class of noun, mixing code Indonesian and English. The children spontaneously and fluently combine both Indonesian and English in constructing the word. However, Indonesian language is still dominantly used and influence to the use of English one.

Japanese Dative Causative Construction: Synthactical and Semantic Study

This research is focused on Japanese causative constructions related to verbs that act datively, both syntactically and semantically. The purpose of this study is to explain the process of forming Japanese causative constructions both syntactically and semantically. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive method. This study uses the syntactic theory of Iori’s regarding the formation of causative constructions, Song's theory of the meaning of causative constructions. The data source is taken from the Japanese language corpus, namely http://www.kotonoha.gr.jp/shonagon/. The results of this study indicate that dative verbs can be formed through the process of forming causative constructions in Japanese. The formation process is in the form of a verb that goes through a morphological process [~seru/ ~saseru]. The verb can be either transitive or intransitive. Transitive verbs that act datively, namely, verbs / yomaseta 読ませた '(cause) to read' and intransitive verbs that act datif/ wataraseta 渉らせた '(cause) to cross', and verbs /arukaseta 歩かせた '(cause) to walk '. The intransitive verb is a moving verb '移動/ idoudoushi'.

Image segmentation for animals in the wild using scilab software

Image segmentation is an effective computer vision method that expands on the concept of object. Recognition and brings in a whole new era of image data manipulation. This method offers up so many options and may be performed in several ways. However, in this paper, threshold and channel image separation were employed to perform two types of segmentation. Thresholding is a regional segmentation in and of itself. However, thresholding alone is insufficient to properly segment the image, necessitating the employment of additional image processing techniques, such as the morphological process, to provide sharper segmentation. Depending on the color diversity of the image's pixels, different segmentation parameters, such as the thresholding value and structuring element for the morphological process, are required for image segmentation. Overall, the two images have been successfully segmented via two distinct methods

Detection and diagnosis of melanoma skin cancers in dermoscopic images using pipelined internal module architecture (PIMA) method.

Detection and diagnosis of melanoma skin cancer is important to save the life of humans. The main objective of this article is to perform both detection and diagnosis of the skin cancers in dermoscopy images. Both skin cancer detection and diagnosis system uses deep learning architectures for the effective performance improvement as the main objective. The detection process involves by identifying the cancer affected skin dermoscopy images and the diagnosis process involves by estimating the severity levels of the segmented cancer regions in skin images. This article proposes parallel CNN architecture for the classification of skin images into either melanoma or healthy. Initially, color map histogram equalization (CMHE) method is proposed in this article to enhance the source skin images and then thick and thin edges are detected from the enhanced skin image using the Fuzzy system. The gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) and Law's texture features are extracted from the edge detected images and these features are optimized using genetic algorithm (GA) approach. Further, the optimized features are classified by the developed pipelined internal module architecture (PIMA) of deep learning structure. The cancer regions in the classified melanoma skin images are segmented using mathematical morphological process and these segmented cancer regions are diagnosed into either mild or severe using the proposed PIMA structure. The proposed PIMA-based skin cancer classification system is applied and tested on ISIC and HAM 10000 skin image datasets. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: The melanoma skin cancer is detected and classified using dermoscopy images. The skin dermoscopy images are enhanced using color map histogram equalization. GLCM and Law's texture features are extracted from the enhanced skin images. To propose pipelined internal module architecture (PIMA) for the classification of skin images.
