Determining the optimal size of procurement or production is the key word in determining optimal inventory. An integrated procurement and production size optimization model becomes a model that provides optimal results for all parties involved in the supply chain. This study proposes the development of a single producer and multi retailer supply chain model with the aim of minimizing the total inventory cost (TIC). The company distributes products to each retailer for further sale to consumers by the retailer. The annual demand from retailers is assumed to be different. Model development is carried out to obtain optimal production quantities for producers, optimal delivery quantities and determine the optimal number of retailers. The determination is based on the manufacturer's production cycle time is the same as the inventory cycle time at each retailer is the same. A simple algorithm is used to determine the optimal cycle time which can be followed by determining the optimal production size, optimal number of shipments and optimal number of retailers. At the end of this study, a numerical example of the use of a model that has been built based on case study data of a fertilizer industry is presented as a producer and its partners as retailers. The results of the numerical examples that have been carried out show that the optimal number of retailers is 3 retailers with an optimal production of 742 units, the determination of the optimal number of retailers is obtained from experiments with the lowest TIC value.

Authors: Harrouche Kathia , Venkatachalam Srisaran , Grandpierron François , Okada Etienne , Medjdoub Farid
Published: October 2022

We report on a vertically scaled AlN/GaN high electron mobility transistor technology design optimization for millimeter-wave applications. The undoped GaN channel thickness and carbon concentration into the buffer are extensively varied and systematically characterized. It is found that a thin GaN channel, typically below 150 nm improves the electron confinement, but increases the trapping effects, especially when using shorter gate lengths. Moreover, high carbon concentration into the buffer enables not only high electron confinement but also low leakage current under a high electric field at the expense of trapping effects. As a result, the optimum epi-design enabled state-of-the-art RF performances at 40 GHz.

NO ME ABRACES PORQUE NO SOY NIÑA:
Authors: Olarte Ramos Carlos Arturo , Montejo Álvarez Florentino
Published: October 2022

Este documento versa sobre la construcción de la masculinidad desde la niñez, a partir de la idea de que el rol de género para los varones se aprehende en el seno familiar, donde hombres y mujeres desempeñan tareas específicas asignadas tradicionalmente a su sexo. Para ello se realizó una investigación cualitativa con diseño de teoría fundamentada, con el objetivo de identificar las implicaciones sociales que para un grupo de infantes de una escuela primaria pública ubicada en el sureste de México, conlleva la masculinidad. A partir de la aplicación de dinámicas relacionadas con el rol de género, se confirmó que los niños aprenden y aprehenden pautas de comportamiento hegemónico, lo que indica la reproducción del rol tradicional de género para los varones. Se concluye la importancia de socializar modelos no hegemónicos de masculinidad desde la infancia para promover relaciones democráticas entre pares.

Chinese Exceptionalism in Architecture and Urban Design: A Book Review
Authors: Wong Kachun Alex
Published: October 2022

This essay reviews three books on contemporary Chinese urbanism. The first book, Designing Reform, understands the exceptionalism of Chinese reform through architectural evidence. The second book, The Shenzhen Experiment, further argues for the exceptionalism and non-replicability of Shenzhen reform. The third book, The City After Chinese New Towns, similarly highlights the unprecedentedness of Chinese new towns. These three recent publications collectively aim to demystify contemporary Chinese urbanism, and have done so with a sensibility towards space, geography, materiality, and infrastructure. These authors and editors are mainly architectural researchers leveraging disciplinary contributions to the discussion of post-socialist China. In turn, they have also contributed to the field of architecture and urban design with rich case studies in China. This review essay aims to understand (i) their geographical and spatial perspectives, (ii) their architectural design perspectives, and (iii) how they address social justice issues. It seeks to formulate contemporary Chinese urbanization as an object of inquiry, to “exceptionalize” Chinese phenomena, and to argue for the pedagogical contribution of Chinese case studies to architecture and urban design.

Art education as a form to shape the attitude and personality of children who have mental functions which include fantasy, sensitivity, creativity and expression. A child can fantasize about his work, through the feeling of the child pouring his ideas into the work, making the child sensitive, making the child have good creativity, and expressing the work of art. From an early age children have enormous potential. At this time children experience very rapid intellectual brain development. Children are able to absorb quickly every incoming stimulus. Children will be able to memorize a lot of information such as vocabulary, tones, sounds and so on. Therefore, if parents squander a golden opportunity in childhood, it means they are missing a very good moment to provide a foundation for the next child's education. One of the efforts that can be made to express intellectual power combined with the power of imagination is through visual arts.

DP 0259 - Agribusiness Trade Between Brazil and China: Pillars end Opportunities
Authors: Nonnenberg Marcelo José Braga , Lima Uallace Moreira , Araujo Mateus Azevedo , Pedrosa Fernanda , Bispo Scarlett Queen Almeida
Published: October 2022

In this paper, we discuss the agricultural trade between Brazil and China. We select a set of key commodities and debate whether there are obstacles or opportunities to increase trade between the two economies. Following an institutional and historical analysis, we provide a statistical description of the recent history of Brazilian exports to China. We contrast the trade statistics with a set of indicators on the use of tariff and non-tariff measures and highlight which institutions are responsible to regulate the agricultural sector in Brazil. Our main findings support the relevance of the bilateral trade of agricultural products between Brazil and China. Still, a set of products can be classified as missed trade opportunities. We argue about the negative effects of preferential tariffs applied to other groups of countries. We can link the case of a subset of commodities to the incidence of non-tariff measures.

Published: October 2022

OBJETIVO: Verificar os níveis da pressão arterial sistólica e diastólica de mulheres idosas praticantes regulares do método Pilates, associado com palestras sobre educação em saúde.MÉTODOS: Estudo quase-experimental com 81 mulheres idosas (68,21±7,05 anos). As participantes foram divididas em Tercis, de acordo com o número de presenças nas atividades: T1: 1 a 12 visitas; T2: 13 a 24 visitas; e, T3: 25 a 36 visitas. Os valores da pressão arterial (PA) foram classificados em: pressão controlada – pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) inferior a 140 mmHg e pressão diastólica (PAD) até o limite 90 mmHg –; pressão arterial não controlada (PANC) (valores da PAS>140 mmHg e PAD>90 mmHg). Por meio de um questionário foram coletados dados sociodemográficos, comorbidades, hábitos de vida e número de medicamentos. Adicionalmente, foram mensurados o índice de massa corporal (IMC) e a circunferência abdominal (CA). O teste qui-quadrado foi utilizado para comparar as variáveis nominais. Diferenças estatísticas entre os grupos foram estabelecidas pela ANOVA. A análise de regressão logística verificou o efeito da assiduidade sobre os valores da PAS e da PAD controlada e não-controlada. O nível de significância adotado foi de α=0,05.RESULTADOS: Alcoolismo, tabaco e morar só apresentaram níveis estatísticos de significância (p≤0,5). Verificou-se que a assiduidade nas atividades mostrou razão de chance (OR) de 17% para obtenção de níveis de PAD controlada e que o não comparecimento nas atividades determinou 58% de chance para níveis de PAS não-controlada.CONCLUSÕES: O controle dos níveis pressóricos se apresentou diretamente proporcional à assiduidade das idosas na prática do Pilates e nas palestras sobre educação em saúde

O objetivo deste texto é apresentar os resultados de uma análise do material jornalístico publicado na Gazeta do Povo sobre a união civil de pessoas do mesmo sexo durante os meses de março, abril e maio de 2013, época em que a medida foi regulamentada por várias instâncias da justiça. Utilizando-se da metodologia da análise de conteúdo e de teorias sociais, este trabalho faz também uma discussão sobre o papel do jornalismo na formação do consenso social. Conclui-se que o veículo apresentou uma contribuição muito pequena para a visibilidade do tema e reforçou conceitos de heteronormatividade nos textos.

Authors: De Carvalho Ana Flávia Lorena , Correia Jhenyffer Nareski , Almeida Rogério Caetano de
Published: October 2022

Este trabalho propõe um diálogo entre duas obras de escritoras mulheres, são elas: Julie Maroh, com a história em quadrinhos “Azul é a Cor Mais Quente”, e Judith Teixeira, com o poema “Ilusão”. Esse diálogo é fomentado pelos conceitos de intertextualidade e homoerotismo, ambos sob o viés temático. O artigo conta também com a análise simbólica e formal do poema e a discussão a partir das cores presentes nas duas obras utilizando a psicologia das cores. O objetivo desse trabalho é identificar as aproximações que ambas as autoras possuem acerca da temática, mas objetiva também evidenciar e, de certa forma, apresentar essas grandiosas autoras da literatura, mesmo que elas sejam de épocas distintas. O artigo é, sobretudo, uma forma materializada de darmos voz à literatura feminina e reivindicar, cada vez mais, o nosso espaço.

Human–elephant conflict (HEC) contributes to the increasing death of Asian elephants due to road accidents, retaliatory killings and fatal infections from being trapped in snares. Understanding the diet of elephants throughout Peninsular Malaysia remains crucial to improve their habitat quality and reduce scenarios of HEC. DNA metabarcoding allows investigating the diet of animals without direct observation, especially in risky conflict areas. The aim of this study was to determine: i) the diet of wild Asian elephants from HEC areas in Peninsular Malaysia using DNA metabarcoding and ii) the influence of distinct environmental parameters at HEC locations on their feeding patterns. DNA was extracted from 39 faecal samples and pooled into 12 groups representing the different sample locations: Kuala Koh, Kenyir, Ulu Muda, Sira Batu, Kupang-Grik, Bumbun Tahan, Belum-Temengor, Grik, Kampung Pagi, Kampung Kuala Balah, Aring 10 and the National Elephant Conservation Centre, which served as a positive control for this study. DNA amplification and sequencing targeted the ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase gene using the next-generation sequencing Illumina iSeq100 platform. Overall, we identified 35 orders, 88 families, 196 genera and 237 species of plants in the diet of the Asian elephants at HEC hotspots.Ficus(Moraceae),Curcuma(Zingiberaceae),Phoenix(Arecaceae),Maackia(Fabaceae),Garcinia(Clusiaceae) andDichapetalum(Dichapetalaceae) were the highly abundant dietary plants. The plants successfully identified in this study could be used by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (PERHILITAN) to create buffer zones by planting the recommended dietary plants around HEC locations and trails of elephants within Central Forest Spine (CFS) landscape.
Dogs, not wolves, most likely to have caused the death of a British tourist in northern Greece

Published: October 2022

Wolf (Canis lupus) populations have recovered and expanded across many parts of the world thanks to conservation efforts, including improved legal status and restoration of their prey. Concurrently, public concerns regarding the risk of wolf attacks on humans and livestock are increasing as wolves occupy human-dominated landscapes. We examined a unique case in Europe allegedly involving wolves in the death of a female British tourist, aged 64, in northern Greece in September 2017. This incident received extensive international media attention and yet many fundamental details of the case area are lacking, including whether local livestock guarding dogs played a role. To assist in resolving the case, we conducted an extensive literature review which documented 13 criteria linked to the risk of either a wolf and/or a dog attacking a human. We also conducted a camera trap survey (October to December 2017) soon after the fatal attack to calculate the activity overlap among humans, dogs and wolves. Sufficient data were available for assessing 11 of the 13 criteria. For the remaining two, the required data were either not analysed (i.e. canid DNA collected from the attack site), not appropriately collected (i.e. DNA from the mouths of suspected dogs) or were collected, but misinterpreted (i.e. the post-consumption patterns of the victim’s corpse). Via this combination of evidence, we conclude that this case involved a fatal dog attack. This assertion is supported by evidence such as the: a) high dog-human activity overlap at the attack site which peaked during the attack time as opposed to near zero wolf-human activity overlap at the same time, b) presence of a large pack of unsupervised dogs, c) high ratio of male dogs in the dog pack, d) close vicinity of the attack site to dog owner’s property and e) previous documented aggression of these dogs towards humans. The consumption patterns, time scale and location of the victim’s remains indicate a posthumous consumption of the corpse possibly by the same dogs and/or by wild scavengers including wolves. A multidisciplinary approach, such as this one, in the assessment of putative wildlife attacks on humans can reduce misidentifications of the responsible species by forensic authorities and, therefore, prevent unfounded decrease in public tolerance for large carnivores.

Published: October 2022

A new mysmenid genus, Chimenagen. nov., is reported from China. Two new species: C. qiongsp. nov. (Hainan, ♂♀, the type species) and C. nantousp. nov. (Taiwan, ♀) are illustrated and described in detail. A new combination is suggested: Chimena taiwanica (Ono, 2007) comb. nov. (Taiwan, ♂♀, transferred from Mysmena Simon, 1894). The molecular phylogeny and morphological characters were used to discuss the taxonomy and circumscription of the newly erected genus.

Purpose:

To characterize common errors in the diagnosis of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) among ophthalmologistsin-training in middle-income countries.

Methods:

In this prospective cohort study, 200 ophthalmologists-in-training from programs in Brazil, Mexico, and the Philippines participated. A secure web-based educational system was developed using a repository of more than 2,500 unique image sets of ROP, and a reference standard diagnosis was established by combining the clinical diagnosis and the image-based diagnosis by multiple experts. Twenty web-based cases of wide-field retinal images were presented, and ophthalmologists-in-training were asked to diagnose plus disease, zone, stage, and category for each eye. Trainees' responses were compared to the consensus reference standard diagnosis. Main outcome measures were frequency and types of diagnostic errors were analyzed.

Results:

The error rate in the diagnosis of any category of ROP was between 48% and 59% for all countries. The error rate in identifying type 2 or pre-plus disease was 77%, with a tendency for overdiagnosis (27% underdiagnosis vs 50% overdiagnosis; mean difference: 23.4; 95% CI: 12.1 to 34.7;
P
= .005). Misdiagnosis of treatment-requiring ROP as type 2 ROP was most commonly associated with incorrectly identifying plus disease (plus disease error rate = 18% with correct category diagnosis vs 69% when misdiagnosed; mean difference: 51.0; 95% CI: 49.3 to 52.7;
P
= .003).

Conclusions:

Ophthalmologists-in-training from middle-income countries misdiagnosed ROP more than half of the time. Identification of plus disease was the salient factor leading to incorrect diagnosis. These findings emphasize the need for improved access to ROP education to improve competency in diagnosis among ophthalmologists-in-training in middle-income countries.

Published: October 2022

Healthy lifestyle, directly and indirectly enhances the socio economic status of people. In this manner, dietary practices in young age will impact adult health, decades from now. Therefore this study attempted to identify the acceptance towards a balanced diet among youth using a choice based Conjoint Analysis. For this, primary data were collected by a pretested questionnaire from a stratified random sample of 200 youth from Kurunegala district representing all 30 Divisional Secretariats. All respondents were presented with a choice set comprised of variations of the “shaped plate” introduced by Ministry of Health in Sri Lanka and considered as the general balanced diet plate suitable for Sri Lankans. Nine choice cards were generated for three “shaped plate” attributes including carbohydrate, protein, vegetables and an additional monetary attribute, price. A Rank Ordered Logistic Regression was used to analyse the results which revealed that all four attributes have shown a significant effect on selecting a diet by youth. In addition to this, the research failed to identify a significant relationship between choice and socio economic variables such as gender and educational level. According to the results, it is obvious that majority of youth considers the price and nutritional value of the diet. This study reveals that Marginal Willingness to Pay values imply an increase in willingness towards protein, vegetables and indicates a less consideration on carbohydrate contain food. Based on the current research, it is reasonable to say Sri Lankan young generation considers price, nutritional value of diet and shows similar behaviour with global trend.
