The uncertainty of the supply chain in the process of procuring building materials can be a risk that results in delays in the implementation of construction projects. This study aims to analyze the material supply chain risks that affect delays in the implementation of construction projects. Supply chain risks are classified from Supply, Control, Demand, and Process. Data collection by survey method and respondents selected by purposive sampling method. The analysis used is the AHP method. The risk response is confirmed to the expert by the interview method. The results of the risk assessment found that the late delivery of material due to non-current financial problems with FR = 0.703 was the most risky factor resulting in project development delays.
Effects of Mucuna pruriens (L.) supplementation on experimental models of Parkinson's disease: A systematic review

Introduction: Mucuna pruriens (L.)DC. (Mp) has been used in the treatment of numerous diseases in Indian Ayurvedic medicine, mainly for delaying the symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), and has as its main component levodopa (L-DOPA). The aim of this work is to systematically review the effects of Mp supplementation on experimental models of PD due to its neuroprotective and antioxidant properties. MATERIALS AND Methods: The search was conducted through PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, and Scientific Electronic Library Online databases, where a number of relevant articles were found. Results: Mp demonstrated significant positive responses in the experimental models of PD by improving motor deficits and by enhancing the activity of the antioxidant systems, reducing oxidative stress. In addition, it presented some advantages when compared to a conventional antiparkinsonian drug as it minimized the occurrence and severity of dyskinesias. Conclusion: Thus, considering that the use of herbal medicines decreases the likelihood of side effects associated with the pharmaceutical drugs, this work aims to summarize and evaluate the data available regarding the mechanism of action of Mp and the reported benefits of this plant as an alternative to improve the quality of life of individuals with PD.
Strength of Glue Joints of Metallic Materials in Connection with Design of Joints

Estimation of the load carrying capacity of the adhesively bonded structures is the main challenge in the bonded constructions and structures prior to manufacture stage. Particularly, the adhesive joints in the railway and automotive industry increasingly becoming the most popular joining method recently. In order to make an accurate prediction of the load carrying capacity of an adhesive joint, modern fracture mechanic approaches are employed using the finite element package program ? ABAQUS? , in this dissertation study. In this regard, metallic substrates were considered to simulate structural mild steels having different tensile strengths. Then the adhesive joints were manufactured with two different epoxy adhesives which are Veropal HE20 and Carboresin. FE models of the adhesive joints were created for a variety of the different joint configurations. A validation procedure was followed between experimental and numerical failure loads, which corresponds to the maximum error of 18%. Besides, a parametric study was accomplished to establish a simple expression of the failure load in terms of the geometrical and material parameters of the adhesive joint. Moreover, the effect of each parameter on the joint load carrying capacity was examined and presented in the study. Finally, three design parameters; L/t, oa/oy and F/oyt were decided to be the most substantial for an optimum adhesive joint design.

The article presents the results of the case study of the process of providing educational services in the field of professional education in institutions of higher and vocational education of Donetsk region, eastern part of Ukraine, with the reference to the process of internationalization as one of the realia of higher / professional education of today. The process of internationalization is outlined as a process of cooperation with public authorities, heads of educational institutions, teaching staff and students to support the international component of the process of providing educational services. It is pointed out that the reform of the system of professional education in higher and vocational education institutions today influences not only the further prospects of development of educational sphere, but also the application of new strategies by institutions in the context of their positioning. The study provides a number of practical recommendations that can be considered as an initial mechanism for monitoring the needs of the regional labor market, providing professional training based on information on the approximate number of workers of different professions needed by regional employers to provide a basis to confirm the allocation of funds from the state (regional) budget, etc. The recommendations provided create the ground for successful functioning and development of the professional training system in the region, and the process of internationalization is defined as a factor that influences the transformation of professional education system towards modernization of its basic structural elements in order to improve quality in the face of increasing labor market needs, and therefore to improve the image of educational institution.
When paths cross: maintaining utility of trajectory data in geomasking

With an increase in mobile data collection through GPS and other location-based services, there have been a number of attempts to apply geomasking techniques to published route data in order to protect trajectory privacy. Yet, the utility of masked trajectory data and its value to transportation research remain in question. This study examines how the inferred route changes when origin and destination data are masked to protect privacy, as well as calculates the anonymity of each route traveled by a sample of New York City taxi cabs. It is determined that the routes between locations masked by random perturbation are significantly different from the original routes and that a network-based data product suppressing unique routes is a viable solution to release both accurate route statistics and protect confidentiality.
Fabrication of Aluminum Matrix Nanocomposites by Hot Compaction

In this investigation, five aluminum matrix nanocomposites were obtained by the hot pressing at 800 MPa and 600 oC. The electrolysis coating technique was utilized to prepare the nano-nickel powder. The fabricated nanocomposites were characterized by studying their chemical composition, microstructure, hardness, and thermal expansion coefficient. The scanning electron microscope of the microstructure of the electroless nickel powder shows that the Ni particles have nano-size where it was less than 100 nm. The EDAX analysis of the fabricated composite that contains 25 wt. % (Al2O3) in different regions was established. No elements rather than Al, Cu, Ni, and O were observed. The hardness of the aluminum matrix increases as the content of the Al2O3 increases. In addition, the thermal expansion coefficient was reduced by increasing the Al2O3 content for reasons related to the low thermal expansion of the alumina reinforcement 7.2 x10-6 mm/oC compared with aluminum that has 23.1x10-6 mm/oC.
A Novel Malware Classification Method Based on Crucial Behavior

Recently, some graph-based methods have been proposed for malware detection. However, current malware is generally characterized by sophisticated behaviors, which makes graph-based malware detection extremely challenging. To address this issue, we propose a graph repartition algorithm by transforming API call graphs into fragment behaviors based on programs’ dynamic execution traces. The proposed algorithm relies on the N-order subgraph (NSG) for constructing the appropriate fragment behavior. Moreover, we improve the term frequency-inverse document frequency- (TF-IDF-) like measure and information gain (IG) to extract the crucial N-order subgraph (CNSG). This novel behavioral representation and improved extraction method can accurately represent crucial behaviors of malware. Experiments on 4,400 samples demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a high accuracy of 99.75% in malware detection and promising performance of 95.27% in malware classification.
Evolution of a field: Swiss media and communication studies

In this paper, we present the evolution of Swiss Media and Communication Studies over the last decade by summarizing the main results from a project funded by the Swiss University Conference (2008–2017). We give an overall picture of the growth in the field (in terms of student numbers, resources and activities), look at diversity in terms of topics (two clusters are identified and presented with respect to various indicators), present changes at the level of individual research units (where we find variance in terms of evolution), give insights into publication patterns (two different publication cultures are found) and describe mobility and career pathways in the field. We observe limited mobility within Switzerland, internal pathways at the level of doctoral students and post-docs, and international mobility, mainly within the same linguistic region, at the professorial level. We conclude that the field has reached a consolidation phase and achieved a rather stable situation, but faces new challenges, with digitalization and the pressure towards homogenization in publication output among the most important.
The Prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease and Albuminuria in Patients With Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Attending a Single Centre

Background Diabetes is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease worldwide. Diabetic kidney disease is one of the microvascular complications of diabetes and it involves changes in glomerular hemodynamics, interstitial fibrosis, and tubular atrophy. Early detection and management of Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) help to reduce morbidity and mortality. This study aims to assess the prevalence of nephropathy and albuminuria in the diabetic population attending an Irish tertiary care center. Methods Retrospective data collection and analysis of patients diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through the Development and Integration of Accurate Mathematical Operations in Numerical Data-Processing (DIAMOND) database in a single Irish tertiary care center. An audit tool was used to collect patients’ information including gender, age, type of diabetes, serum creatinine, urinary albumin excretion, albumin creatinine ratio (ACR), body mass index, and last available glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Results Out of 7394 subjects with T2DM, 3139 (42%) were identified with chronic kidney disease (CKD). There were 1866 subjects with positive ACR out of 3139 subjects with CKD in the T2DM cohort. This shows that 25% of subjects have diabetic kidney disease and 17% have CKD of undetermined etiology. In the T1DM cohort with 1166 subjects, 209 (18%) were identified with CKD. Out of these 209 subjects with CKD, 164 (14%) were ACR-positive. The prevalence of CKD and albuminuria were related to age in both T1DM and T2DM populations. Albuminuria showed a linear relationship with age in subjects with no known CKD, which shows that age causally relates to albuminuria independent of type and duration of diabetes. Conclusion CKD is more prevalent in patients with T2DM as compared to T1DM, whereas the prevalence of albuminuria is higher in the T1DM population.
The role of wave–wave interactions in sudden stratospheric warming formation

Abstract. The effects of wave–wave interactions on sudden stratospheric warming formation are investigated using an idealized atmospheric general circulation model, in which tropospheric heating perturbations of zonal wave numbers 1 and 2 are used to produce planetary-scale wave activity. Zonal wave–wave interactions are removed at different vertical extents of the atmosphere in order to examine the sensitivity of stratospheric circulation to local changes in wave–wave interactions. We show that the effects of wave–wave interactions on sudden warming formation, including sudden warming frequencies, are strongly dependent on the wave number of the tropospheric forcing and the vertical levels where wave–wave interactions are removed. Significant changes in sudden warming frequencies are evident when wave–wave interactions are removed even when the lower-stratospheric wave forcing does not change, highlighting the fact that the upper stratosphere is not a passive recipient of wave forcing from below. We find that while wave–wave interactions are required in the troposphere and lower stratosphere to produce displacements when wave number 2 heating is used, both splits and displacements can be produced without wave–wave interactions in the troposphere and lower stratosphere when the model is forced by wave number 1 heating. We suggest that the relative strengths of wave number 1 and 2 vertical wave flux entering the stratosphere largely determine the split and displacement ratios when wave number 2 forcing is used but not wave number 1.
Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome during the First Six Months of Receiving Antiretroviral in HIV-Infected Individuals: A Retrospective Study

Introduction: Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is referred to as the flare up of an underlying, previously undiagnosed infection or the worsening of a previously treated infection soon after antiretroviral therapy (ART) is started. Information about the prevalence and associated risk factors for IRIS in resource-constrained countries like Tanzania where access to ART is increasing is scarce. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with IRIS among patients attending care and treatment clinic at Muhimbili National Hospital (CTC-MNH). Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted in patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) who attended CTCMNH between July 2016 and June 2018. Mann Whitney test was used to compare median CD4+ cells count and viral load at baseline and after 6 months of treatment. Associated factors were analysed using multi-logistic regression. Statistics were done using GraphPad Prism 7 software and a p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Of 318 patients, 8.5% encountered IRIS. Compared to baseline readings, there were significant increases in CD4+ cells (P  0.0001) and decrease in viral load count (P  0.0001). Patients who did not adhere to HAART were more likely to develop IRIS [Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) = 4.2, 95% CI; 1.14-15.60, P = 0.03]. Conclusion: This study found relatively low prevalence of IRIS as compared to those reported elsewhere. Moreover, poor adherence to HAART was found to be a risk factor for IRIS.
Lithium batteries and ultracapacitors alone and in combination in hybrid vehicles: Fuel economy and battery stress reduction advantages

Most vehicles presently use batteries for energy storage, but there are vehicle designs in which ultracapacitors alone or in combination with batteries can increase the efficiency of the vehicle and in addition lead to significantly longer battery cycle life. Ultracapacitors can be used alone in charge sustaining hybrid vehicles (HEVs) if the energy storage requirement is less than 150Wh. Simulations show that when ultracapacitors are used alone in HEVs, the roundtrip efficiency of the energy storage is 95-98% and the engine efficiency in on/off operation can be maintained near the peak efficiency value. Vehicle simulations were also run for plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) using advanced batteries with high energy density (>300 Wh/kg). The simulations were run with the batteries alone and in combination with ultracapacitors. Simulation results for the electric useage (Wh/mi) and all-electric range and fuel economy (mpg) for the PHEVs using batteries in combination with ultracapacitors and batteries alone are presented. In all cases, the vehicles operate in a more ideal manner using batteries in combination with ultracapacitors than with the batteries alone. In addition, the dynamic stress on the batteries due to high current pulses are greatly reduced using the ultracapacitors. Copyright Form of EVS25.

Influence of seedbed, light environment, and elevated night temperature on growth and carbon allocation in pitch pine (Pinus rigida) and jack pine (Pinus banksiana) seedlings

Jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) and pitch pine (Pinus rigida Mill.) are two autecologically similar species that occupy generally disjunct ranges in eastern North America. Jack pine is boreal in distribution, while pitch pine occurs at temperate latitudes. The two species co-occur in a small number of stands along a ‘tension-zone’ that traverses central Maine. These populations provide an opportunity for studying differences between boreal and temperate species in their adaptation to climatic factors. As seedling establishment and early growth are key life-stages governing tree distribution, we experimentally evaluated the influence of seedbed light environment and substrate on the success and early growth of these species. Under similar environments, first-year jack pine seedlings allocated relatively more biomass to roots and pitch pine more to foliage. This might provide pitch pine with an adaptive advantage when soil moisture was not limiting and an advantage to jack pine if substantial moisture stress occurred. Complex ontogenetic shifts in these allocation patterns occurred over second and third years of growth, which resulted in an equalization of interspecific differences in shoot–root ratios by the end of the third growing season. Night temperatures of 4–5 8C above ambient reduced growth of jack pine seedlings, while that of pitch pine was unaffected. However, foliar respiration and respiratory response to temperature were not significantly different between species and did not explain observed differences in temperature response. # 2004 Elsevier B.V.

Sports Marketing and Perceived Value: an application of the conjoint analysis in the Fan Membership Programs of Football

Football is ever present in Brazilians’ lives, and, more than a game, it also involves social and economic relations. Fan Membership Programs (FMPs), based on relationship marketing strategies, are ways to bring the clubs closer to their fans. This paper aims to analyze the perceived value structure of FMPs, based on sociodemographic profiles, starting with FMP attributes of the 2016 Brazilian Football Championship series A classified clubs. The data was collected online, and the population consisted of fans of the selected teams. The data was analyzed using the multivariate technique of Conjoint Analysis. It was verified that the general sample for different sociodemographic profiles, the ticket discounts, and prices of the FMP are the most valued attributes. This paper contributes to academy and practice by presenting a capable instrument to describe FMPs’ value perception. In academic terms, it contributes as a sports marketing management study. In addition, the paper could also apply as a tool for the Football clubs’ managers.
