Sacred Romanesque Architecture of Knights Hospitaller in the Polish Lands
Authors:   University of Rzeszów, Gorazd-Dziuban Paulina
Published: February 2019

The Romanesque Knights Hospitaller’s churches on the Polish Lands are only a fracture of the catalogue of the medieval architecture. Despite their small contribution to the history of the Church, they are extraordinary elements of the rich history of the Piast State. The paper will be based on historical studies on the history of the Order of Hospitallers; both in the Holy Land and, above all, in the Polish lands. The supplement will be research in the field of archeology concerning the main architecture, particular elements of which became the basis of developing the topic of Romanesque churches belonging to the Knights of St. John. The results of the research allow, to a large extent, to supplement and verify information about specific churches based on historical context. As a result, the presentation of the chosen churches mainly in Silesia and Pomerania will be based on the development of their original shape. These are used to present the development of endowment, their worship, ideological links and the functioning of the church as a temple in secular space. The presentation of the expansion of medieval culture of the Maltese Order allows a better understanding of their modest contribution to the development of Romanesque sacred constructions.
Erich Fried’s Prose in Changes of our Times (in Honour of his 30th Jubilee of Death 1988–2018)
Authors: Tellinger Dušan
Published: February 2019

The overall purpose of the researched study is to describe the confrontation between two basic translational principles in E. Fried’s prose and translational activities – naturalizing versus foreignizing (according to L. Venuti’s concept of the translation strategy named domestication in which a ST style is adopted in a TT, elaborated in contemporary Translation Studies). The further objective of the paper is to describe not only the issues for possible future translations of E. Fried’s prose (above all his crucial novel A Soldier and a Girl) into Slovak and Czech language, but also problems with the sense and the style of this author’s works in translations. The goal of this paper is to research not only the topics of antifascist and modernistic literature but also the topic of time and space (the historical setting in which the prose was produced – the addresses, circumstances, etc.) in E. Fried’s literary heritage and above all the history and the way of development of his crucial novel. Without that sense E. Fried’s famous novel and numerous tales cannot be translated into Slovak and Czech adequately and faithfully. The basic design of the study was built as follows: E. Fried’s prose in a broader context of the WWII exile literature; the modernistic novel of E. Fried as backlash on the concentration camp Bergen-Belsen trial 1945; background knowledge by the analysis of E. Fried’s prose and the role of authorial comments; naturalizing versus foreignizing as translational issues. Major findings in the field of literary research of E. Fried’s prose links to F. Kafka and his influence on the novel A Soldier and a Girl were shown in the part of the modernistic novel of E. Fried as backlash on the Belsen trial – i.e. the author’s turn from war-time antifascist literary production to a new modernistic stage during the writing of the novel (1945–46). Contemporary translational trends (the approach to translational principles of modernizing versus historicizing) are described in the two last parts of this paper. The conclusion stresses the impact of social and political circumstances on a controversial author as times change.

Evaluation of Actual Creep Length Under Heading up Structures Aprons
Authors: El-Molla Mohamed , Saad Naveen Y , Ezizah Gada S
Published: February 2019

In this paper a 2D finite element model (SEEP2D) is implemented to study the actual head loss along the sheet piles fixed at the ends of an apron of a heading up structure. Different scenarios for the thickness of the pervious layer under the apron, the length of the apron and the depths of the upstream and downstream sheet piles are studied.  Results show that assuming the outer and inner faces of the sheet piles have the same weight for estimating the creep length while designing aprons of hydraulic structures is weak. Design equations for the actual head loss along the outer and inner faces for both the upstream and downstream sheet piles are driven. These equations can be used as a tool in the practical design for aprons of heading up structures formed on pervious soil and provided with upstream and downstream sheet piles at its ends.
Virtual Casting: State of the Art in Metal Casting Simulation Tools
Authors: Khan Muhammad A.A. , Sheikh Anwar K
Published: February 2019

The demands on the productivity and robustness of metal casting processes for high quality components are continuously increasing. Moreover, the financial considerations necessitate    meticulous and reliable planning of the entire casting process before it is actually put into practice. A holistic approach to perform cradle to grave analysis of cast products is simulation-based metal casting.  This method allows engineers to model, verify, and validate the process followed by its optimization and performance prediction in virtual reality. This paper provides insights on state of the art in simulation-based metal casting with reference to some case studies. Casting simulations software, mathematical models and solution methods, and casting process simulation together with the results obtained are clearly explained. The current practices revealed extensive utilization of simulation packages for defect minimization, yield maximization, and improved quality. The ongoing research on integration of casting simulations with mechanical performance simulations makes it possible to analyze the serviceability of cast parts. The reliability of cast part in service with dynamic loading of varying thermal and mechanical load cycles can be predicted through this integration. However, more rigorous work is needed in this area, particularly by developing the reliability prediction modules embedded in advanced simulation tools.
Numerical Assessment of Electromagnetic Radiated Emissions from an UWB Radiators Located Inside Metallic Enclosures with Small Air-Flow Openings
Authors: Bait-Suwailm Mohammed M , Boudelliou Boudelliou A , Al-Tarhuni Naser
Published: February 2019

Shielding effectiveness of electronic devices and computing devices is  essential at design stages. Devices should pass electromagnetic interference/compatibility tests for certification purposes. In this paper, we investigate the electromagnetic radiation leakage from modern personal computers and mobile electronic devices due to an ultra-wide band source of noise. Openings and slots are always unavoidable in electronic devices, for instance openings in computers for air-flow and heat dissipation. Three different designs of enclosure’s covers with apertures are modeled for this purpose. The three covers cases comprise the use of rectangular arranged circular holes, hexagonal arranged circular holes, and square openings. For comparison purposes, a shielded enclosure with no openings is considered. The shielding effectiveness is numerically assessed here by capturing electric field strength that is modeled using probes located at two different distances, near- and far-away from the metallic enclosure.

As mudanças atmosféricas ocasionadas pelo processo de desenvolvimento e industrialização afetam diretamente o ciclo hidrológico. A detecção de tendências em séries temporais de dados hidrológicos é de grande importância científica e prática para a gestão dos recursos hídricos. O objetivo deste estudo é averiguar as tendências e as flutuações ao longo do tempo das variáveis climatológicas (precipitação diária máxima anual; precipitação total anual; dias sem chuva; e precipitação das estações do ano) no município de Toritama-PE. Foi utilizado o teste Mann-Kendall e o estimador Sen’s Slope (?) para determinar a existência de tendência e sua magnitude. Para identificar flutuações nas tendências ao longo do tempo e para detectar os possíveis pontos de mudança na série de chuvas se utilizou o teste sequencial de Mann-Kendall. O teste não paramétrico de Mann-Kendall demonstrou não haver mudança significativa ao nível de 5% nas chuvas em estudo, havendo apenas uma tendência negativa no número de dias sem chuva (decrescimento de 0,75 dia/ano) causada, possivelmente, por influência da La Niña. Segundo o teste sequencial Mann-Kendall, o início do decaimento da atividade pluviométrica coincidiu com o ano do aumento das atividades antrópicas na região.
Model-Based Parallelizer for Embedded Control Systems on Single-ISA Heterogeneous Multicore
Authors: ZHONG ZHAOQIAN
Published: February 2019

This paper presents a model-based parallelization approach to parallelize embedded systems on single-ISA heterogeneous multicore processors, especially processors with the ARM big.LITTLE architecture, wherein the core assignment of the Simulink blocks is determined based on the control design constraints and characteristics of the big.LITTLE architecture. The proposed approach uses a hierarchical clustering method on Simulink blocks to reduce the problem scale, and an integer linear programming (ILP) formulation to determine the core assignment solution, considering load balancing and minimization of inter-core communication across cores with different performances. Finally, we generate the parallel code of the model based on the core assignment solution for execution on the processors. We evaluate the proposed approach by comparing it with existing methods and generating the parallel code on a single-board computer with the big.LITTLE architecture to determine its effectiveness.

It was hypothesized that the key to reducing the number of children who are at risk of entering, re-entering and remaining in various systems of care are the social service programs and systems created to meet the needs of children. One element to improve the outcomes for children is to establish that engaging fathers of foster children can be important not only for the potential benefit of a child-father relationship but also for making placement decisions and gaining access to resources for the child. A diverse group of n=22 service providers voluntarily became involved in a multi-year participatory action research to explore the value of building capacity to integrate Responsible Fatherhood practices, programs, and/or initiatives within foster care service delivery and other children and youth servicing systems. The results from the study highlight a substantial distinction between baseline and post-evaluation of the agency’s father readiness. The findings suggest that there were significantly higher scores on the father friendly checklist in the areas of leadership, polices & procedures, staff development, parent programming, and fatherhood. The article summarizes key recommendation for social service agencies to develop initiatives that outreach to fathers not only to connect with their children, but to build a broader support network that enhances child safety, permanency and well-being.
Political Dimensions of Weaker Sections Welfare in Local Self Government in India: A Study

Published: February 2019

Soon after independence, the main thrust of Indian Government centered on meeting the basic needs of India’s population which include food, clothing and shelter.    With this perspective, the national policy makers looked at various measures to alleviate the rural poor.  The process of self governance and planning by empowering the people through Panchayati Raj system although started nearly five decades earlier, but 73rd and 74th amendments in the Constitution of India brought an historic change in the process of decentralisation towards the grass root level and participation of people both in the formulation as well as implementation of the plans.   The paper explores how the Constitution 73rd Amendment Act (1992), provided certainty, continuity and strength to the PRI’s for the welfare of the weaker sections through Decentralization.  Uniform three-tier level of the village, block and district levels, direct elections to all seats and at all levels, indirect elections to chairpersons at intermediate and apex levels.  Reservation on rotational basis for SC’s ST’s in proportion to their population, both for membership as well as Chairpersonships of the PRI’s.  Not less than one third of the seats and offices reserved for women.  The present paper intends to discuss the political participation of weaker sections in panchayat raj institutions in Karnataka in general and in Afjalpur taluk of Gulbarga District in particular as a case study.  Finally the paper discusses about the political participation of weaker sections and sought their opinion of their involvement in the process of political, economic development and social justice, with the transfer of the list of Eleventh and the Twelfth Schedule of the Constitution to the rural and urban elected local bodies, and the process of welfare activities for weaker sections through the Panchayat Raj Institutions has been discussed.
Perioperative Lung Protective Ventilatory Management During Major Abdominal Surgery: A Hungarian Nationwide Survey

Lung protective mechanical ventilation (LPV) even in patients with healthy lungs is associated with a lower incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC). The pathophysiology of ventilator-induced lung injury and the risk factors of PPCs have been widely identified, and a perioperative lung protective concept has been elaborated. Despite the well-known advantages, results of recent studies indicated that intraoperative LPV is still not widely implemented in current anaesthesia practice.

No nationwide surveys regarding perioperative pulmonary protective management have been carried out previously in Hungary. This study aimed to evaluate the routine anaesthetic care and adherence to the LPV concept of Hungarian anaesthesiologists during major abdominal surgery.

A questionnaire of 36 questions was prepared, and anaesthesiologists were invited by an e-mail and a newsletter to participate in an online survey between January 1st to March 31st, 2018.

A total of one hundred and eleven anaesthesiologists participated in the survey; 61 (54.9%), applied low tidal volumes, 30 (27%) applied the entire LPV concept, and only 6 (5.4%) regularly applied alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARM). Application of low plateau and driving pressures were 40.5%. Authoritatively written protocols were not available resulting in markedly different perioperative pulmonary management. According to respondents, the most critical risk factors of PPCs are chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (103; 92.8%); in contrast malnutrition, anaemia or prolonged use of nasogastric tube were considered negligible risk factors. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and regular ARM are usually ignored. Based on the survey, more attention should be given to the use of LPV.

The relationship between the size of the particle fractions of the soil substrate and the diversity of the spontaneously developing vegetation was investigated on coal mine spoil heaps in Upper Silesia (Southern Poland). The analyses were based on 2567 research plots of developed spontaneous vegetation and their associated soil substrate samples collected from 112 coal mine spoil heaps. For each research plot the prevailing particle size fraction was determined (stones, gravel, sand, silt), the species composition and abundance was recorded and the species richness (S), Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H′), Simpson (C) and Evenness (E) indices were used to determine species diversity. From a total of 119 research plots (in all particle size fraction categories), the values of 15 physicochemical properties (pH, electrical conductivity, water holding capacity, moisture, carbon content, total N, available P, Mg and exchange cations Ca, Mg, K, Na, fine particles (%), gravel (%), stone (%)) were obtained to asses their impact on the floristic composition of vegetation patches using Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA). Additionally, functional traits of the dominant species of each vegetation patch (life forms, life strategies and socio-ecological groups), were selected to analyse their relation to substrate texture. It was shown that the highest species richness and the highest values for Shannon-Wiener diversity index, as well as Simpson and Evenness indices, were obtained in plots formed on stones. Moreover, the greatest variation in the participation of species representing different habitats, life forms, and life strategies was found on gravelly substrates. Contrary to our expectations, the vegetation diversity (in terms of both species and their functional traits) was not highest in habitats with a high composition of fine size particles.
