Petroficción, fotografía y memoria en \u3cem\u3eRecuerdos del río volador \u3c/em\u3ede Daniel Ferreira
Abstract in spanish
Analizo cómo Recuerdos del río volador (2022) de Daniel Ferreira tematiza la petromodernidad en Colombia. Exploro sus lazos con diferentes duelos inconclusos en el marco de la memoria del conflicto colombiano y diferentes tipos de violencia, en diálogo con la CEV, ya que conecta la violencia política de la primera mitad del siglo XX con la violencia sistémica causada por diversos tipos de extractivismo. Explico cómo la novela, entendida como petroficción, es una contranarrativa al extractivismo petrolero. Para ello, la interpreto como una contramemoria a partir de las perspectivas de la memoria multidireccional (Rothberg, 2009; Kennedy, 2017) y elduelo ecológico (Cunsolo & Ellis, 2018; Barnett, 2022). Propongo que la fotografía opera por igual en ella como un instrumento testimonial dentro de procesos de recuperación de memorias no oficiales y la representación de las confluencias de cultura material y arte. De esta forma, muestro cómo la novela ayuda a reconsiderar la necropolítica que interviene en la explotación petrolera y sus estrategias de despojo, control de territorios y cuerpos, sumadas al deterioro ambiental del río Magdalena. Abstract in English
I analyze how Daniel Ferreira\u27s novel Recuerdos del río volador (2022) thematizes petromodernity in Colombia. I explore its connections to various unfinished duels within the context of the memory of the Colombian conflict and different forms of violence, engaging in dialogue with the Colombian Truth Commission (CEV), since the novel links the political violence of the early 20th century to the systemic violence caused by various types of extractivism. I argue that the novel, understood as petrofiction, serves as a counternarrative to oil extractivism. To support this, I interpret it through the lens of countermemory, drawing on concepts of multidirectional memory (Rothberg, 2009; Kennedy, 2017) and ecological grief (Cunsolo & Ellis, 2018; Barnett, 2022). Additionally, I propose that photography acts as a testimonial tool in the processes of recovering non-official memories and depicting the intersections of material culture and art. Ultimately, I explain how the novel prompts a reevaluation of the necropolitics involved in oil exploitation, its strategies for dispossession and control over territories and bodies, as well as the environmental degradation of the Magdalena River

A High-Temperature Lithium-Aluminum Alloy/Oxygen or Air Fuel Cell
This paper is in support of our current effort in the development of an experimental hybrid (lithium- aluminum alloy/electrolyte/oxygen or air) fuel cell for the acquisition of the experimental data required to characterize its performance behavior. The literature-based assembled formulation provided in this paper can be used to predict the cell open-circuit electric potential, lithium amount in the cell anode alloy, and g-atom ratio of lithium to aluminum in the cell anode as a function of time at any cell discharge current level. The ohmic voltage losses can also be computed in the cell cathode, anode, and two electrolytes at a cell current level. The computed ohmic-voltage loss data in the various components of the cell (Figure 1 in Section 1), during its discharge; for example, at the geometric current density of 0.10 amp∙cmgeom−2 at the cell temperature of 405 °C is presented in the paper. The computed data are summarized as given below: 1. The predicted open-circuit cell voltage at 405 °C is 2.3241 volt. 2. At the geometric current density of 0.10 amp∙cmgeom−2, the ohmic voltage loss in the cell anode is relatively negligible. The ohmic voltage loss in the electrolyte-1, electrolyte-2, and cathode is 1.3620, 0.0048, and 0.0002 volt, respectively. The ohmic cell voltage loss in the electrolyte-1 of thickness 10μm is dominant. It is, therefore, suggested that the electrolyte-1 membrane thickness be less than 5μm to reduce the overall cell operational voltage loss at any discharge current level. 3. The predicted operational cell voltage, at the cell discharge current of 0.10 amp∙cmgeom−2 is about 0.9571 volt at the cell temperature of 405 °C
Embracing Professional Bravery and Inclusion: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome and Advancing Oncology Physical Therapy
Oncology physical therapists (PTs) and physical therapist assistants (PTAs) play a crucial role in cancer care but often struggle with imposter syndrome, which can hinder professional confidence and interdisciplinary collaboration. Addressing these feelings is essential to ensuring optimal patient outcomes and advancing the field of oncology rehabilitation. This article explores the importance of mentorship, inclusivity, and professional bravery in overcoming self-doubt and advocating for the recognition of oncology rehabilitation within healthcare systems. By fostering a welcoming professional community and proactively seeking leadership opportunities, PTs and PTAs can enhance patient care and establish their essential role in oncology treatment. The future of the profession depends on a collective commitment to inclusivity, self-advocacy, and resilience
