Propensity to Sexual Response among Adults with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Authors: Pozza Andrea , Marazziti Donatella , Mucci Federico , Dèttore Davide
Published: October 2019

Background:

Propensity to sexual excitation and inhibition is one of the key dimensions of sexuality. Clinicians working with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) patients rarely assess this and other aspects of sexuality, since treatment targets generally symptom reduction. Literature on sexual functioning in OCD patients is scarce and no study has focused on symptom subtypes, nor investigated the psychological processes related to sexual response.

Objective:

In the present short report, we describe an exploratory study investigating the association between symptom subtypes and propensity towards sexual excitation/inhibition in OCD patients, controlling for gender, age and antidepressant treatment.

Methods:

Seventy-two OCD patients (mean age = 34.50 years, 37.50% women) completed the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Revised and the Sexual Inhibition/Sexual Excitation Scales.

Results:

Patients with more severe compulsive washing habit had a lower propensity towards excitation and a higher one towards inhibition due to threat of performance consequences (i.e., contamination with sexually transmitted diseases/having an unwanted pregnancy). Patients with more severe symptoms of checking showed a higher propensity towards inhibition due to the threat of performance consequences. Gender, age and antidepressant treatment were not related to sexual functioning.

Conclusion:

Specific OCD symptom subtypes may be associated with some psychological processes involved in sexual response. Sexual well-being should be carefully evaluated by practitioners and should be regarded as a treatment target. Future studies should investigate more comprehensively the processes involved in sexuality.
Limitation Factors of Building Information Modeling (BIM) Implementation
Authors: Enshassi Mohammed A. , Al Hallaq Khalid A. , Tayeh Bassam A.
Published: October 2019

Background:

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been recommended as the best tool to improve construction processes by many researchers. However, most construction companies do not adopt BIM because there are many limitations slowing BIM adoption.

Objective:

The aim of this paper is to investigate the factors that limit BIM implementation in the construction industry.

Methods:

To investigate the research objectives, a quantitative approach was adopted and a structured questionnaire was designed. A total of sixty-eight copies of the questionnaire were distributed and sixty-five of them were satisfactorily completed, making the total response rate = 95.58%. Snowball sampling method helped to obtain a high rate of response and thus increase accuracy.

Results and Conclusion:

BIM limitation factors were divided into five categories. The results illustrated that the personnel category was ranked as the most important, while the legal category was ranked as the least important. Findings showed that requirement of large culture change within the organization, lack of senior management support, lack of knowledge on how to implement BIM, lack of staff experience and skills, and need to change in workflows to comply with the new requirements were ranked as the most important factors that obstacle BIM implementation.
A Call for a Public Health Agenda for Social Media Research (Preprint)
Authors: Pagoto Sherry , Waring Molly E , Xu Ran
Published: October 2019

UNSTRUCTURED

Research has revealed both the benefits and harms of social media use, but the public has very little guidance on how best to use social media to maximize the benefits to their health and well-being while minimizing the potential harms. Given that social media is intricately embedded in our lives, and we now have an entire generation of social media natives, the time has come for a public health research agenda to guide not only the public’s use of social media but also the design of social media platforms in ways that improve health and well-being. In this viewpoint we propose such a public health agenda for social media research that is framed around three broad questions: (1) How much social media use is unhealthy and what individual and contextual factors shape that relationship; (2) What are ways social media can be used to improve physical and mental well-being; and (3) How does health (mis)information spread, how does it shape attitudes, beliefs and behavior, and what policies or public health strategies are effective in disseminating legitimate health information while curbing the spread of health misinformation? We also discuss four key challenges that impede progress on this research agenda: negative sentiment about social media among the public and scientific community, a poorly regulated research landscape, poor access to social media data, and the lack of a cohesive academic field. Social media has revolutionized modern communication in ways that bring us closer to a global society, but we currently stand at an inflection point. A public health agenda for social media research will serve as a compass to guide us toward social media becoming a powerful tool for the public good.

Published: October 2019

Zea mays variety 704 (single cross) was studied to investigate effect of chemical fertilizers and growth-promoting bacteria on yield and yield components of corn ( Zea mays ). A factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized block design with three replications at Tehran-Varamin Research Farm (Iran) in 2017. The treatments were as follows: inoculation of the seeds with growth promoters in four levels: Rhizobium , Azospirillum , Azotobacter and Pseudomonas ; Rhizobium , Azospirillum and Pseudomonas ; Rhizobium , Azotobacter and Pseudomonas ; Azospirillum , Azotobacter and Pseudomonas and use of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilizers at four levels: no use, 1/3, 2/3, and 100 % recommended were applied. The results showed that the use of fertilizer was significant on the traits such as several leaves per plant, number of seeds per row, number of seeds per ear, plant height and forage yield at 1 % level. The results indicated that the highest forage yield of 33.78 t ha-1 was obtained from the interaction between the use of fertilizers and biological fertilizers, Rhizobium , Azospirillum , Azotobacter and Pseudomonas , which was 42 % higher than control.

Published: October 2019

The use of amperometric express method made it possible to measure quickly and evaluate content of waterand alcohol-soluble antioxidants in extracts from Amaranthus tricolor L. plants. Accumulation of low molecular weight antioxidants: ascorbic acid, beta-cyanine (amaranthine) and the total content of antioxidants in various organs of Valentina amaranth seedlings were studied. The maximum amount of low molecular weight antioxidants accumulates in leaves, compared with roots and stems of seedlings grown in open and protected ground. In open ground conditions, amaranth leaves and stems have 1.5-fold and 2-fold increased level of ascorbic acid than seedlings grown in protected ground. But the total content of water-soluble antioxidants in leaves and roots of seedlings is lower compared to seedlings of protected ground. Minimum amount of antioxidants was found in alcohol extracts of stems and roots in open ground, while the total content of antioxidants in stems and roots was 1.6 fold higher in seedlings grown in protected soil. The content of amaranthine is comparable in the studied organs of amaranth seedlings of both cultivation variants. The data obtained allow to recommend use of leaves and stems of amaranth seedlings grown in open and protected ground (early spring and autumn), as a preventive antioxidant dietary product.

Published: October 2019

The aim of this study was to compare gill, kidney, liver and gut histopathology, and plasma antioxidant markers of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss reared in saltwater earthen ponds in Gomishan, Iran. To this, 10000 fish were distributed in a three-ha earthen pond and 150 fish in three fiberglass tanks (2000L). Blood samples were taken after 3 months rearing with same commercial feed. The source of fish and feed was similar between the saltwater pond and fiberglass tanks. After the 3-month rearing, gill, kidney, liver and gut samples were taken from the pond fish; whereas, blood samples were taken from both the pond and tank fish. There was no significant difference in water temperature, dissolved oxygen and pH between the pond and tanks; however, water salinity and ammonia was higher in the pond compared to the tanks. Plasma superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity of the fish in earthen ponds were significantly higher than those fish reared in fiberglass tanks; however, there was no significant in thiobarbituric acid reactive substances between the pond and tanks. The fish had various histopathological symptoms including primary and lamella hyperplasia, lamellar fusion and epithelial lifting. In the kidney section, the fish showed glomerulus shrinkage and/or disappearance, melanomacrophage aggregates and hematopoietic tissue necrosis. These fish showed necrosis and melanomacrophage aggregates in liver and goblet cell hypertrophy in gut. The results suggest that the fish in the earthen pond faced stressful conditions, which might be due to water salinity and ammonia; however, other possible factors, such as pollutants and different feeding regimen must be considered.

Published: October 2019

Manipulation of the gut microbiota toward potentially beneficial bacteria (probiotics) has beneficial effects on fish physiology and health. The effects of prebiotics on gut microbiota are species specific. The present study aimed at investigation of the effects of galactooligosaccharide (GOS) as prebiotic on intestinal microbiota of Caspian roach and Caspian white fish fingerlings. which are among the most economically valuable species in the Caspian Sea. The study was conducted in a completely randomized design with two set of experiment each of them include three treatments in triplicates in which 0 (control), 1 and 2% GOS were used in diet for 6 weeks. At the end of the period, changes in the intestinal microbiota, including total bacterial count, lactic acid count and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) levels and dominance of LAB in the intestinal microbiota, were measured by culture-based method. Dietary GOS had no significant effect on total bacterial count in both species (P < 0.05). The LAB levels in the intestinal microbiota in the treatments fed with prebiotics was significantly higher than the control group (P < 0.05). LAB bacteria showed the highest increase and dominance in treatments fed with 2% GOS. Also, the highest ratio of lactic acid bacteria to the total number of viable bacteria was observed in the treatment with 2% GOS treatment (P < 0.05). The results of this study indicated the possibility of alterations in the bacterial communities of Caspian roach and Caspian white fish fingerlings gut toward beneficial bacterial communities using GOS as prebiotic.

CROSS]BORDER SECURITY OF THE MEDITERRANEAN: AFRICAN AND ASIAN MIGRATION VECTORS
Authors: Bistrina Maria G
Published: October 2019

The current European migration crisis outlined the problems of cooperation between the EU countries in the search for solutions in emerging multilateral conflicts. Therefore, the purpose of this analysis is to identify the role of the regional information exchange network and cooperation in the field of illegal migration and to reduce cross-border crime between the countries of North Africa, Asia and the EU. Cooperation can include assistance with the authorities to implement national strategies to address the causes of illegal migration by encouraging local economic development and providing access to jobs for migrants and host communities, and to strengthen protection for the most vulnerable. It is extremely important to increase the capacity of the authorities in North Africa and Asia to combat illegal migration and human trafficking by strengthening their border surveillance systems. Other areas of support with EU countries include an inter-agency visit to the European Border Guard and the Coast Guard Agency in Warsaw, the designation of a contact point for Operation Sophia and the study of information exchange opportunities within the Seahorse Mediterraneo project. Key issues include changes in the legal and institutional framework, knowledge base, channels for legal migration, border control, prevention of illegal migration.

Authors: Temer Ana Carolina Rocha Pessoa , Tuzzo Simone Antoniaci
Published: October 2019

Este artigo é resultado de pesquisas continuadas desenvolvidas no Laboratório de Leitura Crítica da Mídia do PPGCOM - UFG. A partir dos conceitos de grotesco, modernidade; e questões sobre a cidade e a mobilidade urbana, apresenta uma análise sobre a cobertura midiática dos episódios de violência direcionada ao transporte, em especial aos incêndios intencionais de ônibus urbanos. A análise inclui um debate sobre as estratégias do telejornalismo na cobertura destas ações, os gêneros e formatos adotados e como eles refletem esta estratégia, mas também aspectos sobre o enquadramento (ou fremes) e o uso de uma estética do grotesco para consolidar a cobertura da violência urbana. Observou-se que as abordagens pontuais do espaço urbano a partir da violência conduzem a um questionamento sobre o Estado, a Cidadania e a Democracia e, de forma indireta, induz a noção da impossibilidade da convivência entre classes e grupos sociais nos espaços urbanos contemporâneos.

Published: October 2019

La presente investigación tuvo como finalidad investigar acerca de los factores principales que son tomados en cuenta por los consumidores de restaurantes, para seleccionar los mismos. Se estudió específicamente a los consumidores del Centro Histórico de la Ciudad de Puebla, así pues, se identificaron que los elementos como “sabor de los alimentos, calidad en la atención, recomendaciones de familiares y amigos y publicidad en redes sociales” son determinantes para generar un comportamiento positivo de compra por parte del cliente de la empresa gastronómica. Así también se indagó acerca del grado de utilización de las herramientas administrativas por parte de los dueños de los restaurantes, se encontró que solo 13 por ciento de los dueños tienen un plan escrito de negocios que guíe las actividades del restaurante. Por tanto, en la sección de conclusiones, se sugiere una estrategia de capacitación, para mejorar los conocimientos administrativos e impulsar una especial atención a los factores determinantes para los clientes y así generar una mejor “imagen” que redunde en empresas exitosas.

Diagnóstico sobre el nivel de generación de negocios inclusivos en la localidad de Kennedy en Bogotá y su impacto en el desarrollo local
Authors: Cabrera Jiménez Manuel Fernando
Published: October 2019

A partir del reconocimiento de un nuevo paradigma generado en el periodo de posguerra, en el contexto del Nuevo Orden Mundial se desarrolló un enfoque denominado economía heterodoxa, donde el enfoque del bienestar social y el desarrollo humano cobra relevancia. De esta manera surgen nuevas corrientes de pensamiento en relación con el desarrollo, donde el hombre se asume como el  centro de las relaciones económicas, en la búsqueda  de un  mejor  nivel de prosperidad y crecimiento social incluyente, bajo este escenario surge el desarrollo local, basado en el fomento de capacidades individuales y colectivas, el cual se fortalece desde el reconocimiento de las particularidades culturales, capacidades económicas, experiencias productivas y recursos disponibles al servicio de un conglomerado social, el cual promueve la implementación de estrategias entre diferentes actores públicos y privados, manifestadas por acciones tales como los negocios inclusivos, los cuales en su cadena productiva involucran población de bajos ingresos o conocida como BdP. Frente a este panorama, este artículo asumió la Localidad de Kennedy en Bogotá, como contexto para conocer la percepción de los empresarios sobre negocios inclusivos, su capacidad para generarlos y el aporte que pueden tener frente al desarrollo local, identificándose que las empresas en términos generales aún,  no comprenden las particularidades de esta estrategia y tienden a confundirla con acciones de responsabilidad social empresarial, de igual forma se evidencian alto nivel de desarticulación entre actores públicos, privados y ciudadanos; lo que complejiza aún más la posibilidad de generar negocios inclusivos en función del desarrollo local.
Existing policy framework to support the active mobility in Bulgaria. Strategies and regulations in Varna
Authors: Nozharova Boryana , Nikolov Peter
Published: October 2019

Active mobility, active travel, active transport, and active transportation
are synonyms of transport of people that only use their physical activity
for the need to travel. The most known forms of active mobility are walking
and cycling, though the skateboard, kick scooter or roller skates are also a
form of active mobility. The city of Varna is the third largest city in
Bulgaria and the largest seaside city in the country. In the high tourist
season, the city shows much more street problems than usual. The congestion
seems to be greater each and every year and this affects active
transportation. As a result of the dominant character of the private car in
our everyday life, it seems that the active forms of transport are being
neglected. To change this trend an integrated transport policy is required
where the pedestrians will be placed in the center of the daily agenda. One
of the very important components to support active mobility is the policy
framework. It should guarantee that all forms of active mobility have also
rights as users of the streets and are not neglected in the planning
process. The current study aims to analyze the existing relevant national
and local (for the city of Varna) regulations regarding walking and cycling
and to evaluate the degree of policy support in order to respect their
rights and needs. The existences of the relevant policies and how they are
implemented is a matter of the study. The collected data about the
regulatory framework is evaluated using the content analysis method.

Authors: Zivojinovic Milena , Dobrosavljevic Ivan , Kulisic Zoran , Radojicic Sonja , Boskovic Tamara , Plavsic Budimir
Published: October 2019

Background. Trichinellosis is zoonotic disease caused by parasites of the genus Trichinella, which have a cosmopolitan distribution. In the Balkan region, including Serbia, trichinellosis is endemic. Although trichinellosis shows a decreasing incidence in Serbia, this disease remains a serious problem for human health and animal husbandry. Scope and Approach. To prevent and control Trichinella spp. infections in domestic and sylvatic animals, risk analysis for these zoonotic parasites should be conducted. In Serbia, a limited number of Trichinella have been identified to the species level so far. An institutional, multi-sectoral surveillance system, supported by an adequate legal framework for the detection, surveillance, prevention, control and reporting of this infection in animals and humans, harmonised with the EU legislation, is a priority. Key Findings and Conclusions. One of the main goals of the Serbian veterinary and public health services should be progressive improvement of animal rearing practices, food safety, and hunters? and consumers? education through the ?One-health? approach.
Does Using Accounting Data in Performance Evaluations Spoil Team Creativity? The Role of Leadership Behavior
Authors: Klein Aleksandra , Speckbacher Gerhard
Published: October 2019

Organizations frequently use teams for creative problem-solving. Evaluating the performance of creative teams based on customer-related accounting data, such as client satisfaction measures, revenues, or profits, clarifies which kind of creativity is expected from the team and potentially makes the creative process more effective. However, the use of such accounting data in performance evaluations may amplify the tensions between the artistic merit and the commercial success of creative ideas and, thus, create conflicts that undermine team creativity. We argue that it depends on the team leader's leadership style whether the negative or positive effects of using customer-related data in performance evaluations on team creativity will prevail. If the team leader shows a leadership style that helps team members internalize the values and standards underlying the employed performance measures, then negative conflict inside the team is avoided and the positive effects of using customer-related data in performance evaluations can be realized.

Published: October 2019

OBJECTIVE

The 2019 Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes suggested that patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) should be evaluated for liver fibrosis. However, the performance of noninvasive clinical models/scores and plasma biomarkers for the diagnosis of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and advanced fibrosis has not been carefully assessed in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

In this cross-sectional study, patients (n = 213) had a liver MRS, and those with a diagnosis of NAFLD underwent a percutaneous liver biopsy. Several noninvasive clinical models/scores and plasma biomarkers were measured to identify NASH and advanced fibrosis (NASH: ALT, cytokeratin-18, NashTest 2, HAIR, BARD, and OWLiver; advanced fibrosis: AST, fragments of propeptide of type III procollagen [PRO-C3], FIB-4, APRI, NAFLD fibrosis score, and FibroTest).

RESULTS

None of the noninvasive tools assessed for the diagnosis of NASH in patients with T2DM had an optimum performance (all areas under the curve [AUCs] <0.80). Of note, none of the panels or biomarkers was able to outperform plasma ALT (AUC 0.78 [95% CI 0.71–0.84]). Performance was better to diagnose advanced fibrosis, in which plasma PRO-C3, AST, and APRI showed better results than the other approaches (AUC 0.90 [0.85–0.95], 0.85 [0.80–0.91], and 0.86 [0.80–0.91], respectively). Again, none of the approaches did significantly better than plasma AST. Sequential use of plasma AST and other noninvasive tests may help in limiting the number of liver biopsies required to identify patients with advanced fibrosis.

CONCLUSIONS

Performance of noninvasive clinical models/scores and plasma biomarkers for the diagnosis of NASH or advanced fibrosis was suboptimal in patients with T2DM. Combination of multiple tests may provide an alternative to minimize the need for liver biopsies to detect fibrosis in these patients.

Very high-resolution, single channel (IKB-Seistec™) reflection profiles acquired offshore the Napoli Bay, complemented with geological and geophysical data from the literature, provide unprecedented, superb seismic imaging of the Latest Pleistocene-Holocene stratigraphic architecture of the submerged sectors Campi Flegrei and Somma-Vesuvius volcanic districts. Seismic profiles were calibrated by gravity core data and document a range of depositional systems, volcanic structures and hydrothermal features that evolved after the onset of the Last Glacial Maximum (ca. 18 ka BP) over the continental shelf on the Campania coastal zone.Seistec profiles from the Pozzuoli Bay yield high-resolution images of the shallow structure of the collapse caldera-ring fault - resurgent dome system associated with the eruption of the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff (NYT) (ca 15 ka BP) and support a working hypothesis to assess the timing and the styles of deformation of the NYT resurgent structure throughout the Latest Quaternary. Seismic images also revealed the nature of the fragile deformation of strata along the NYT ring fault system and the occurrence of hydrothermal fluids and volcanic/sub-volcanic intrusions ascending along the ring fault zone. Seismic data acquired over the continental shelf off the Somma-Vesuvius stratovolcano, display evidence of gravitational instability of sand wave deposits originated by the underwater modification of pyroclastic flows that entered the seawater after destroying the Roman city of Herculaneum during the 79 CE eruption of Vesuvius.At the Banco della Montagna, a hummocky seafloor knoll located between the Somma-Vesuvius and the Pozzuoli Bay, seismic profiles and gravity core data revealed the occurrence of a field of volcaniclastic diapirs formed by the dragging and rising up of unconsolidated pumice, as a consequence of fluid overpressure at depth associated with active degassing and fluid venting at the seafloor.

Authors: Vaca Diego , Lima Gabriela
Published: October 2019

Los defectos del tubo neural (DTN) son defectos producidos por un cierre anormal de una porción del tubo neural entre la tercera y cuarta semana pos-concepcional. Pueden ser abiertos o cerrados. Los más comunes son mielomeningocele, anencefalia y encefalocele. La prevalencia en América es de 11,5 /100.000 nacimientos. El encefalocele definido como una protrusión del cerebro con o sin las meninges se presenta con una incidencia de 0,8-5/10.000 nacimientos. Sus causas principales son déficit de folatos, factores genéticos, síndromes y enfermedades metabólicas.

Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 22 años quien cursó un embarazo con controles preconcepcionales y prenatales deficientes; producto del cual a las 34 semanas de gestación mediante ecografía se detectó intra útero un feto de sexo femenino con un encefalocele occipital primario junto a otra malformación fetal (polidactilia).

Se decide el ingreso al servicio de alto riesgo obstétrico para diagnostico ecográfico definitivo en la unidad materno fetal y para observación, seguimiento y realización de una cesárea programada junto a la intervención multidisciplinar de los servicios de ginecología, neurocirugía, cardiología, psicología y genética. Se planifica cirugía de  corrección del defecto luego de 15 horas de terminada la cesárea para estabilización de la recién nacida, el procedimiento termino sin complicaciones, la recién nacida pasa a unidad cuidados intensivos neonatales para cuidado post quirúrgico, donde a las 72 horas realiza hidrocefalia como complicación quirúrgica;  la misma que se resuelve con la colocación de drenaje ventrículo peritoneal y a actualmente permanece en observación en neonatología sin complicaciones adicionales y en espera del alta.

Conclusiones.  La importancia de la consulta preconcepcional en el embarazo es primordial para la determinación antes de la gestación de factores de riesgo que ocasionarían defectos o alteraciones prevenibles en el embarazo, los controles prenatales y las ecografías óptimas para la detección oportuna de malformaciones fetales toma una importancia real en la actualidad, la detección oportuna de los defectos fetales y el manejo multidisciplinario es de suma importancia en el pronóstico fetal de la malformación y la expectativa de vida de los recién nacidos.

Published: October 2019

O final do século 19 e o início do 20, no Brasil, apresentaram intensas mudanças artísticas, filosóficas e políticas que influenciaram o campo literário da época. Tais modificações também chegaram à produção de escritos destinados a crianças, com aumento da demanda por livros escolares, nos quais as ilustrações ocuparam um lugar importante na sua composição material, articulando-se ao projeto de formação de uma infância brasileira por meio da leitura. Nesse sentido, realizamos um recorte do texto imagético nos livros de leitura de autores brasileiros, destacando de que maneira contribuía para a educação voltada à difusão de valores do período, analisando e ressaltando suas principais funções e simbologias; ademais, apresentamos os processos editoriais que envolviam sua escolha para publicação. Metodologicamente, empregamos a pesquisa descritivo-interpretativa de cunho qualitativo para a revisão bibliográfica e para a compreensão dos elementos não verbais como construção ideológica e literária. Verificamos que as gravuras que ilustram as obras infantis nacionais, além de contribuírem para a construção de representações sociais, morais e cívicas vinculadas à Primeira República, favoreciam o processo de formação leitora.

Published: October 2019

A produção editorial contemporânea de livros considerados informativos vem apresentando alterações significativas, tanto no formato quanto na abordagem dos seus temas. Textos mesclam estrutura expositiva com estrutura narrativa, o que facilita a entrada do leitor mirim nos processos de organização do conhecimento. Neste artigo são analisados três livros informativos para crianças, discutindo-se a construção literária presente nos textos verbais e visuais e suas possibilidades para informar e ampliar determinado tema. Tomam-se, como base teórica, concepções sobre os mecanismos de documentação para crianças, a partir de elementos ficcionais e não ficcionais; e concepções que propõem novas formas de analisar a relação entre palavra e imagem em textos não ficcionais. A análise fundamenta-se em estudos sobre literatura infantil que apontam as novas perspectivas das obras infantis na contemporaneidade.

Published: October 2019

The regional exponential reduced observability concept in the presence for linear dynamical systems is addressed for a class of distributed parameter systems governed by strongly continuous semi group in Hilbert space. Thus, the existence of necessary and sufficient conditions is established for regional exponential reduced estimator in parabolic infinite dimensional systems. More precisely, the introduced approach is developed by using the decomposed system and reduced system in connection with various new concepts of (stability, detectability, estimator, observability and strategic sensors). Finally, we also show that there exists a dynamical system for two-phase exchange system described by the coupled parabolic equations is not exponentially reduced observable in usual sense, but it may be regionally exponentially reduced observable.
Dufour and radiation effect on MHD boundary layer flow past a wedge through porous medium with heat source and chemical reaction
Authors: Pattnayak Hadibandhu , Mohapatra Rojali
Published: October 2019

Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) boundary layer flow past a wedge with the influence of thermal radiation, heat generation and chemical reaction has been analyzed in the present study. This model used for the momentum, temperature and concentration fields. The principal governing equations is based on the velocity  in a nanofluid and with a parallel free stream velocity and surface temperature and concentration. The governing nonlinear boundary layer equations for momentum, thermal energy and concentration are transformed to a system of nonlinear ordinary coupled differential equations by using suitable similarity transformation with fitting boundary conditions. The transmuted model is shown to be controlled by a number of thermo-physical parameters, viz. the magnetic parameter, buoyancy parameter, radiation conduction parameter, heat generation parameter, Porosity parameter, Dufour number, Prandtl number, Lewis number, Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, chemical reaction parameter and pressure gradient parameter. Numerical elucidations are obtained with the legendary Nactsheim-Swigert shooting technique together with RungeKutta six order iteration schemes.

Dynamics features movement and stable means. Continuous Stable dynamics thus means continuous movement or motion. That is a moving object which enjoys continuous movement. For example, the electron continuous revolution round the nucleus, the revolution of the moon round the earth and that of the earth round the sun. In this formula, the continuous movement of the moving object round the origin of coordinates in space is studied. Regarding the importance of the angular speed calculation in most of applied sciences such as dynamic mechanics , aerospace , dynamic systems and lock of a relation  established in this connection , the need is felt that in order to design and optimize dynamic systems , a reasonable relation should be presented . This paper tries to prove such a relation in the easiest possible way.

Kepemilikan media, khususnya surat kabar di Indonesia saat ini menunjukkan pemusatan kepemilikan, terpusat pada beberapa nama pemilik modal seperti Kompas Group, Jawa Pos Grup, Globe Media Grop, Media Indonesia grup, dan Tempo Inti Media. Situasi ini menjadikan keberagaman isi media (diversity content) tidak terjadi karena tidak ada keberagaman pemilik (diversity ownership). Akibatnya terjadi proses industri budaya bersifat massal. Dari kondisi tersebut kepentingan dan pemilik media harusnya diabaikan, namun dalam prakteknya di Indonesia sulit dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana media, khususnya Koran Tempo bisa bersikap berimbang menyiarkan pemberitaan yang berkaitan dengan kepentingan para pemiliknya. Masalah penelitian ini adalah bagaimana kepemilikan dan isi pemberitaan Koran Tempo dilihat dari perspektif strukturasi Giddens. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan, isi Koran Tempo tidak semata-mata mempublikasi apa-apa yang diharapkan oleh pemilik modal. Namun tetap berkiblat dari rapat redaksi, ide dan gagasan dari para anggota redaksi. Kesimpulan penelitian ini adalah isi pemberitaan Koran Tempo  yang disajikan tidak semata-mata mengikuti kebutuhan pemilik modal yang dianggap menjadi penentu isi dari surat kabar sebagai bagian dari industri budaya.

Travel 2.0 merupakan konsep pariwisata yang menggunakan media sosial dan internet sebagai gerbang pembuka promosi pariwisata. Sayangnya, masih banyak yang belum memahami konsep ini secara utuh. Tidak liniernya pemahaman konsep travel 2.0 dengan aplikasinya terjadi pada usaha Lembaga Masyarakat Desa Hutan (LMDH) Sepraga di Desa Tegaren, Kecamatan Tugu, Kabupaten Trenggalek untuk membangkitkan pariwisata embung Banyu Lumut. Dengan menggunakan metode observasi, wawancara, dan studi kepustakaan, studi ini berusaha untuk memberi sorotan pada ketidaksesuaian lapangan dengan kesiapan konsep keilmuan yang sudah ada. Media sosial dan internet memberikan perubahan yang besar terhadap pemasaran pariwisata. Jika dulu pariwisata tidak beda dengan pemasaran langsung dari produsen kepada konsumen, maka dengan travel 2.0, pemasaran berpusat pada sesama konsumen (peer-to-peer marketing). LMDH bisa mengembangkan pariwisata secara maksimal dengan adanya kelompok sadar wisata (pokdarwis). Namun, pokdarwis Desa Tegaren tidak bisa terbentuk karena adanya ganjalan administrasi dan struktural negara. Studi ini, tidak hanya memberi sorotan, namun  juga memberikan saran untuk mengembangkan konsep peer-to-peer dalam pengembangan pariwisata.
