Authors: R Nivedha , E Deepika
Published: April 2024

Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is the common complications of radiation therapy in the head and neck cancer patients. In the history, REGAUD was the first to report about osteoradionecrosis. Later, several criterion are meant for osteoradionecrosis. Several staging or scorings/classifications are given based on clinical findings, radiographic findings, extent of the involvement, response to treatment, etc. Clinically it manifest as ulceration or exposing the necrosed bone or necrosed mucosa. Radiographic features are evident in later stages. We the clinician should be aware and diagnosed early without leading it to further sufferings to the patient.
Quelques clés de lecture pour comprendre et analyser l’accaparement des terres
Authors: Feodoroff Timothé
Published: April 2024

Cet article présente quelques clés de lectures afin de naviguer à travers le tableau complexe du phénomène de l’accaparement des terres. Il s’ouvre sur la question de la définition. Cette dernière n’est pas futile mais au contraire un point de départ fondamental : de la compréhension du problème dépend la forme de la réponse. L’accaparement est appréhendé ici comme celui de la saisie du contrôle des ressources foncières ainsi que des bénéfices liés à leur utilisation. Les différentes réponses qui ont émergées sont explorées, offrant entres autres une catégorisation tripartite afin d’aider à analyser les enjeux derrière les divers discours.

Cet article tente de soulever les différentes problématiques qui lient la question féminine dans les études sur le foncier et plus particulièrement des acquisitions de terres. Il mène une réflexion sur le processus de construction des politiques foncières et agraires et sur la construction des mythes du développement. Cet essai se veut aussi un appel à la précaution et à la « contextualisation » systématique dans nos études du genre.
Insights into Social Networking Dynamics of Students – An Explorative Study
Authors: Srilatha Goli
Published: April 2024

Digital technology has brewed revolution in the world as never before. Social networking websites like Face book, Google+, Twitter and You tube have become very dear and popular and became part of daily life of many. Education field has owned the technology for application and solving many problems confronted by it. The technology may replace the teacher in the educational setting in near future due to autonomous learning of the students. In this paper, the investigators tried to understand the social networking dynamics of students of higher education. In the light of the responses of the study, the researcher concluded that social networking websites have both positive as well as negative impact on the education of students and around 66% of the students of 225sample, are possessing own computers, which reflects the urban scenario and as against this only 44% of the students have internet facility.77% of the students are using social network services for educational purpose, which is positive development. The experiences of the respondents on social networking have proved to be of great influence on their day-to-day transactions. Face book and the Google are the two sites mostly visited by majority of the students. Rural and semi urban students are lagging behind to benefit from the social Network services as they are not accessible to the networks easily.
In Vitro Antimicrobial Activity of Alangium salviifoliium L. Roots.
Authors: Krishna Rao M
Published: April 2024

The antimicrobial activity of the roots of Alangium salviifoliium L. studied against bacteria, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus vulgaris, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptomyces pneumoniae and fungi Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae by the agar well diffusion method. Antimicrobial activity was recorded in the order of hexane, chloroform, methanol, ethanol and water extracts. Three concentrations (50, 75 and 100 mg/ml) of each extracts were studied in the antimicrobial activity which involved the determination of inhibition zone values. As the extract dosage level increases the inhibitory effect also increased. All the extracts have showed antimicrobial activity against all tested bacteria and fungi. Ethanol extract has exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity against Proteus vulgaris followed by Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, while methanol extract exhibited the highest activity against Streptomycis pneumoniae. The antimicrobial activity of the extracts was compared to the standard antibiotics, Tetracycline and Clotrimazole. The minimum inhibitory concentration of the chloroform, methanol, ethanol and water extracts were determined by the agar dilution method ranged between 10- 1000 μg/ml and 10 μg/ml with that of Proteus vulgaris being the least phytochemical screening of the plant revealed the presence of tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids and saponins. The results of this study support the traditional use of Alangium salviifoliium L. root as an antimicrobial agent.
Strategies and Issues for Dynamic Software Updates Exactitude

Programs are allowed by dynamic software updating (DSU) systems a line to be fixed on-the-fly to adjoin features or fix bugs. Approaches for launching their correctness have normal little interest, while dynamic upgrades may be difficult to create. In this document, we here the first strategy for instantly confirming the truth's of energetic improvements. Developers express the preferred qualities of an up-to-date execution via client-oriented specifications (CO-specs), which may exemplify a broad variety of client-visible actions. We authenticate CO-specs mechanically by utilizing off - the - shelf tools to assess a combined program that is a group of the new and old variants of the plan. We check it right and formalize the addition change. We've implemented a program blend for D, and employed it to improvements for the Redis key-value collect and a few artificial programs. Using Thor, a certification device, we could check lots of the programs; using Otter, a representational executor, every program could be evaluated by us, frequently in less than one minute. Both resources managed to detect defective areas and sustained just a factor-of-four slow down, on regular, compared to single conversion applications.

Authors: Carchi Arias Kenia Lizzeth , Juca Maldonado Fernando , Delgado Olaya Ruth Maryury , García Saltos María Beatriz
Published: April 2024

Banana production is an economic activity with greater dynamism in the Ecuadorian economy, achieving its consolidation in international markets. However, the limit of adaptation that microentrepreneurs have to competitive environments affects the growth possibilities of MSMEs. Consequently, this sector requires the adaptation and adoption of strategies for the integration of innovation, research and technological development in the production chain. Starting from this problem, the objective of this research is to describe elements that generate competitive advantage based on a strategic cost model, which guarantees the productivity and sustainable development of MSMEs in the banana sector of the province of El Oro; that provides reasonable costs to achieve optimal production yields. To do this, a previous study of the costs was carried out on the Miguel Ponce farm, located in the El Guabo canton. At the same time, 100 surveys were applied to medium and small banana producers, to identify the needs they have in relation to the implementation of strategic tools that ensure competent quality production compared to the rest of the markets, promoting an increase in productive capacity. that promotes long-term sustainable local development.

Published: April 2024

Cardiovascular biomaterials (also known as CB) are the most common type of biomaterials, both in terms of investments and demand. This review article compiles information on the CB and categorizes it into three primary categories: metals, polymers, and biological materials. Blood compatibility is one of the primary parameters that restricts the use of biomaterials for cardiovascular applications. Within the scope of this study, a number of significant figures concerning blood compatibility are investigated. There were a variety of surface modification techniques that were being utilized at the moment in order to enhance the compatibility of the CB. For the purpose of gaining a deeper comprehension, a number of contemporary applications of surface modification techniques on materials for cardiovascular devices were also discussed. Last but not least, the utilization of induced human pluripotent stem cells, the endothelization of cardiac implants, and the current trend of CB. As a result of the rapid expansion of the field of CB, a significant number of new researchers and academics are developing an interest in it. This overview will serve as a one-stop shop for quickly gaining an understanding of the fundamental studies that have been conducted in the field of CB.
Merleau-Ponty: Relação Entre Ontologia Interrogativa E Ciências Biológicas
Authors: Pagni Elena
Published: April 2024

Neste artigo nos perguntaremos sobre o significado da reflexão de Merleau-Ponty sobre as ciências biológicas desenvolvida nos cursos ministrados no Collège de France nos anos 1956-1957; 1957-1958; 1959-1960 e sua conexão com o projeto de uma nova ontologia e o questionamento sobre a condição atual da filosofia, que acompanham as reflexões do filósofo francês coletadas no curso do Collège de France “Possibilité de la philosophie” (1958- 1959) e em Parcours deux (1951-1961). Tentaremos, portanto, entender como esses estudos e investigações com efeito abrem-se para o projeto ontológico do Ser bruto vislumbrado em O visível e o invisível (1964).
Eugen Fink: Elementos Para Uma Crítica A Heidegger (1927-1945)
Authors: Giubilato Giovanni Jan
Published: April 2024

O artigo apresenta um estudo dedicado à elucidação de alguns pontos de convergência e sobretudo divergência entre a posição do jovem Fink e a filosofia de Heidegger, com o intuito não só de oferecer as bases para colocar adequadamente a questão da relação entre o pensamento de Heidegger e de Fink, mas também de ressaltar a precoce independência e autonomia filosófica deste último. Após uma introdução geral, serão tratados os seguintes temas: 1. O destaque filosófico da Weltfrage; 2. Ontologia e fenomenologia; e (mais resumidamente) 3. Teoria e práxis; 4. Ser e verdade; 5. Ética da autenticidade em Ser e Tempo.
Categorias Da Physis. Heidegger E Fink
Authors: Nielsen Cathrin
Published: April 2024

Nesse artigo amplo e detalhado, que representa ao mesmo tempo uma via privilegiada de acesso à compreensão do pensamento finkiano em geral, Cathrin Nielsen apresenta uma leitura pontual e ao mesmo tempo abrangente das concepções da physis em Fink e Heidegger, sobre o pano de fundo da tradição metafísica ocidental. As diferentes interpretações dos conceitos ontológicos fundamentais, tais como substância, matéria e forma, conduzirão a noções diferentes e até contrapostas de physis. Se Heidegger, por um lado, frisa continuamente a inclusão da natureza no “acontecer da clareira”, Fink, por outro lado, tematiza, como poucos antes dele, o lado “obscuro, noturno e fechado” da natureza através de uma abordagem experimental da terra e dos fenômenos que testemunham a “proximidade ôntica” da existência humana com o solo materno originário.
Disposição Para A Edição Dos Manuscritos De Bernau De Husserl
Authors: Fink Eugen
Published: April 2024

Quando Roman Ingarden visitou Husserl em Friburgo em 1927, a discussão entre os doisinevitavelmente recaiu sobre o problema da fenomenologia do tempo, e especialmente sobre as lições que Husserl tinha minis-trado em 1905 em Göttingen, e que na época (fim de 1927, começo de 1928) estavam sendo editadas por Heidegger sob o título Lições para uma fenomenologia da consciência interna do tempo. Durante a conversa, de repente, Husserl convidou Ingarden a voltar no dia seguinte, pois ele queria lhe mostrar algo “muito mais importante” (Husserl, 1968, p. 155). Na verdade, no dia seguinte Husserl mostrou a Ingarden uma grande pasta que continha vários textos – cerca de 600 páginas de estenografia – que ele tinha escrito durante duas estadias em Bernau, uma pequena cidade no Schwarzwald, em 1917 e 1918; e pediu a Ingarden que os preparasse para uma publicação. Apesar do sentimento de gratidão, Ingarden teve que recusar, sabendo que não poderia completar o que ele considerava um empreendimento quase impossível, que somente o próprio Husserl poderia completar. Como resultado, em 1928, Husserl confiou os manuscritos a seu novo assistente Eugen Fink. O fato de Fink ter começado a trabalhar neles já durante os primeiros meses da sua colaboração, como aluno e assistente de Husserl é demonstrado por numerosas anotações pessoais (cf. Fink 2006; 2008). Mas a familiaridade com este material é documentada ainda mais significativamente pelas observações e inclusive críticas esboçadas durante a elaboração de um índice sumário (datado de dezembro de 1928, cf. Fink 2006, p. 251) e também por uma tentativa de organizar os manuscritos, compilados juntamente com o esboço de um prefácio (cf. Fink 2006, 378). Os rascunhos e as disposições para publicação (planejada junto com Husserl por volta de 1930) dos Bernauer Zeitmanuskripte foram coletados pelo próprio Fink junto com alguns outros materiais da época – especificamente aqueles relacionados ao projeto concomitante de elaborar e escrever um Sistema da filosofia fenomenológica – e entregues em 1969 ao Arquivo Husserl em Lovaina, onde estão agora catalogados como L I e L II. O seguinte texto, tradução do rascunho original de disposição de Fink para a publicação dos manuscritos, foi publicado em Fink, 2008, p. 347-356.
Elementos Para Uma Crítica A Husserl
Authors: Fink Eugen
Published: April 2024

O manuscrito original deste texto ainda inédito se encontra no acervo do Arquivo-Fink, o qual faz parte do Arquivo Central da Universidade de Freiburg im Breisgau, e consiste em 20 páginas escritas a máquin (com algumas correções a mão, com caneta preta), coletadas em um envelope com a inscrição: “Elementos para uma crítica a Husserl (primavera de 1940)”. A numeração das teses (sendo ao todo cinquenta e cinco) foi feita pelo próprio Fink. Como consta já nas primeiras linhas do manuscrito, elas foram formuladas originalmente nos primeiros meses do ano de 1940, a partir de várias anotações preparatórias para um trabalho mais amplo, o qual seria intitulado Tratado sobre a pesquisa fenomenológica. O manuscrito referente a esse trabalho, no entanto, foi perdido em função da eclosão da Segunda Grande Guerra, e somente algumas anotações e esboços, reproduzidos nas primeiras cinco páginas do texto que ora se apresenta ao leitor brasileiro, puderam ser conservados. O Tratado – como Fink se referia ao trabalho dedicado à pesquisa fenomenológica – traria, por um lado, o resultado mais abrangente do profundo e ao mesmo tempo atribulado confronto crítico com a herança da fenomenologia husserliana após a morte do Husserl (em 1938) e, por outro, a realização concreta daquela exigência filosófica fundamental, expressa com clareza na tese Nr. 3: “a recondução da pesquisa fenomenológica à filosofia”. O Tratado representaria, portanto, um dos primeiros projetos filosóficos autônomos de Fink, então desobrigado do vínculo de colaboração com Husserl e, nesse sentido, de um inevitável comprometimento com os planos deste para a fenomenologia. Embora o trabalho de colaboração com Husserl tenha sempre permitido a Fink certo espaço para sua própria contribuição, é inegável que o peso e a influência de Husserl exerceram, ao mesmo tempo, um efeito limitante e restritivo sobre o jovem Fink.
A práxis da arte revolucionária: Ghosting uma história sem sombras
Authors: Davis Duane H.
Published: April 2024

Merleau-Ponty, em Humanismo e Terror (1947), aborda o espectro de problemas relacionados à ação revolucionária. Seu ensaio, O olho e o espírito (1960), é mais conhecido como uma contribuição à estética. Há uma estrutura comum nesses trabalhos aparentemente díspares. Devemos rejeitar a ilusão da clarividência subjetiva como um padrão de práxis revolucionária, mas devemos também rejeitar qualquer luz idealizada da razão que ilumine tudo – que prometa uma história sem sombras. A natureza revolucionária de um ato deve ser estabelecida como tal através da práxis. As pr&aa cute;xis criativas do revolucionário político ou do artista revolucionário são reconhecidas ex post facto. Contudo, cada uma envolve a criação de sua própria estética nova, na qual o valor daquela práxis deve ser compreendido espontaneamente e em bloco.
A questão da mulher em Buytendijk e Simone de Beauvoir
Authors: Andrade Eloísa Benvenutti de
Published: April 2024

Neste artigo discutiremos a questão da mulher no pensamento de Buytendijk e Si-mone de Beauvoir. Para tanto, partiremos da exposição da tese apresentada por Buytendijk (1887-1974) em seu livro “A mulher, seus modos de ser, de aparecer, de existir: ensaio de psico-logia existencial” cuja 1°edição francesa é de 1954, contexto em que reverbera o monumental “O segundo sexo” (1949) de Simone de Beauvoir. Por meio de uma análise fenomenológica des-critiva, Buytendijk critica o reducionismo biológico articulando conceitos como ser humano, corpo e liberdade à luz da defesa de um modo de ser existente e histórico da mulher revelado a partir do corpo. Partindo disso, articularemos a perspectiva proposta por Buytendijk com o pensamento de Simone de Beauvoir cuja questão acerca da existência feminina, para o pensa-dor holandês, seria ainda tributária da consciência e da concepção existencialista de liberdade oriunda dela.
Teoria Gestalt e método fenomenológico em Gurwitsch e Merleau-Ponty
Authors: Lind Erik
Published: April 2024

Neste ensaio, examino as diferentes visões que Gurwitsch e Merleau-Ponty susten-tam sobre a relevância fenomenológica da psicologia da Gestalt. Contra a recusa husserliana desta última em razão de seu suposto “naturalismo,” ambos defendem que a crítica da Gestalt ao atomismo psicológico libera uma perspectiva transcendental no estudo da percepção. En-tretanto, os dois discordam entre si no que diz respeito a qual estatuto fenomenológico deve ser concedido à natureza transcendental da Gestalt. Defendo que o ponto central da diver-gência gira em torno da aplicação do método eidético de Husserl. Enquanto para Gurwitsch as investigações realizadas em linha com a teoria da Gestalt se revelam análises noemáticas, confrontando o sujeito com unidades ideais expressas em asserções eidéticas, Merleau-Ponty é crítico dessa investigação, que lhe parece implicar uma forma de dualismo. Concluo com uma confrontação crítica da leitura que Gurwitsch faz da teoria da Gestalt com aquela feita por Merleau-Ponty, enfatizando a originalidade da caracterização da Gestalt pelo filósofo francês como figura originária do ser pré-objetivo.

SER-E-ESTAR-ENTRE: A CONDIÇÃO INTERSUBJETIVA DA RELAÇÃO TERAPÊUTICA
Authors: Marques Stenzel Lucia
Published: April 2024

O objetivo deste estudo teórico é propor um modelo de compreensão da relação terapêutica por meio da análise da esfera ontológica do ser-entre (condição ontologicamente intersubjetiva da subjetividade) e a esfera do estar-entre (condição ôntica do estar em relação). Oito elementos são considerados constitutivos dessa relação: intersubjetividade, empatia, comunicação, técnica, queixa, historicidade, temporalidade e sentido. Por meio da análise crítica desses construtos teóricos, propõe-se romper com a concepção de que a psicoterapia parte de uma visão subjetivista, monológica e atemporal. Demonstra-se que a relação terapêutica é um encontro dialógico e intersubjetivo, inserido na historicidade e na temporalidade, em que terapeuta e cliente, mediados pela comunicação e orientados por um modelo psicoterápico específico, constroem sentidos sobre o sofrimento e a queixa terapêutica. O modelo de compreensão proposto evidencia o potencial epistemológico e metodológico de investigação que poderá integrar diferentes tradições na pesquisa qualitativa como a fenomenologia, o construcionismo e a linguística. Por fim, são apontadas propostas empíricas e metodológicas de geração e análise de dados, evidenciando que uma prática psicoterápica pautada no “entre” é o caminho necessário para uma a clínica que pretende-se de base fenomenológica.

CREENCIA Y AFECTIVIDAD. UN CAPÍTULO DE ANTROPOLOGÍA FILOSÓFICA
Authors: San Martin Javier
Published: April 2024

A virada emocional é um signo da filosofia contemporânea, também da fenomenologia, neste caso favorecida pela publicação de vários volumes de Husserliana relacionados a esse campo. A posição de Scheler pela primazia dos sentimentos sobre o conhecimento levou a vê-lo em oposição a Husserl, que colocou o cognitivo antes do afetivo. Nesse contexto, meu objetivo é estudar a posição dos sentimentos em Husserl através dos traços da atitude natural, um dos conceitos básicos da fenomenologia. Em pri-meiro lugar estudaremos o que é a crença em Husserl como traço fundamental da atitude natural, cujo cerne é a crença originária no mundo. Nesse sentido, será visto por que a experiência é uma crença. Na segunda seção, será visto por que essa crença não é apenas algo teórico, mas também inclui um elemento afetivo, que está implícito no próprio conceito de atitude. Isso se refere à ação, e isso inclui conhecer e valorizar, portanto, não é meramente cognitivo, mas também afetivo, porque se o mundo vacila, a pessoa fica chocada, como quando perde a saúde. Crença é confiança no futuro e isso é afetividade. Na terceira seção mostrarei a virada que podemos mostrar em Husserl a esse respeito, para a qual recorro ao texto de Hua XV, 385, que mostraria o resultado final de uma fenomenologia genética, na qual uma estrutura original animada por postula-se a cinestesia original e os instintos originais. Estas últimas nada mais são do que as urgências que nos assaltam e determinam uma afetividade primária que promove um investi-mento valorativo do mundo.
Flow and Distribution of Non aqueous Phase Liquids
Authors:   Queens University, Mumford Kevin , Kueper Bernard , Lenhard Robert
Published: April 2024

In many situations, fluids other than groundwater such as non‑aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) are present in the subsurface, many of which are hazardous industrial chemicals. NAPLs include liquids lighter than water (LNAPLs)—for example, gasoline and diesel fuel—and liquids denser than water (DNAPLs)—including chlorinated solvents and coal tar. This book is an introduction to the fundamentals of NAPL flow in porous media, and presents properties and concepts that dictate how NAPLs are distributed in porous media, including the importance of interfacial tension, wettability, and capillary pressure. Further, the authors describe the relationships among capillary pressure, relative permeability, and fluid saturation, and include more detailed discussions of LNAPL and DNAPL distribution. This book provides the reader with a foundation for understanding conceptual and numerical models of groundwater contamination as well as strategies for the investigation and remediation of NAPL‑affected sites.
Mise en récit médiatique du dynamisme local. Le cas d’une Ardèche verte et gourmande
Authors: Michon David
Published: April 2024

Cette contribution analyse la communication institutionnelle d’une marque territoriale pour comprendre le cheminement de sa mise en récit. À partir d’un corpus d’articles produits par les collectivités territoriales ardéchoises et de plusieurs entretiens semi-directifs, la promotion du territoire s’organise depuis une fédération d’acteurs en direction de différents publics. L’objectif est de comprendre comment cette stratégie de communication, plus encore une stratégie de marketing territorial, parvient à attirer durablement en mettant en avant un vivre-ensemble fondé sur une catégorisation restreinte dans sa mise en récit : pratiques gourmandes, naturelles et culturelles du territoire. Cette stratégie donne une image dynamique de l’Ardèche et contribue à la construction d’une marque territoriale officieuse déclinée en sous-marques officielles et complémentaires.
Scotland is Now… really? La réception de la campagne de nation branding par les Écossais en France
Authors: Tourrette Jérémy
Published: April 2024

Cette contribution décrit certains des phénomènes de négociation prenant place lors de la réception de la campagne de nation branding écossaise Scotland is Now. Une recherche originale autant du côté de la production que de la réception permet de montrer l’importance de la prise en compte des trajectoires, qu’elles soient individuelles ou collectives, dans la réception. Sur le plan collectif, il faut comprendre que l’Écosse néolibérale que promeut cette campagne entre en conflit avec la mémoire ouvriériste de la pré-désindustrialisation de la nation. Sur le plan individuel, on perçoit que le caractère publicitaire du nation branding est négocié via une poche de compétences en communication particulière. En cela, dans son ambition normative, le nation branding n’atteint pas entièrement son objectif secondaire de construction nationale en ce que ce processus de promotion se heurte aux mécanismes de réception qui réduisent ses effets potentiels.

Published: April 2024

This study examined US consumers' willingness to fly in an electric aircraft and an aircraft with an internal combustion engine for either one hour or 30-minute flight durations. The participants were provided with four different scenarios: electric engine 30-minute flight, electric aircraft one hour, combustion engine 30 minute, and combustion engine one hour. The scenarios were delivered in a random order to avoid order effects, and each flight scenario explained that the weather was clear and calm and had a knowledgeable pilot. The U.S. Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) consumers' willingness to fly showed no significant differences between type of engine or duration of flight. On average, the participants were willing to fly in electric aircraft, which is promising for the aviation industry.
Mismanagement of Technology
Authors: Arbogast Gordon W. , Jadav Arpita
Published: April 2024

This is a paper that investigates how major problems in corporations can occur if the Management of Technology is not properly administered. The purpose of this paper is to review large firms and people that relied on technology and who had serious failures caused by mismanagement. Such mismanagement had a variety of causes such as incompetence, poor ethics, abuse, and outright corruption. Over the years there have been individuals and firms who have been seriously sanctioned based on crimes such as fraud. This paper focuses on some of the most egregious cases that have occurred during the past four decades. This manuscript documents a considerable number of major corporations that experienced such problems and suffered subsequent profound consequences. Two that are examined in detail are Volkswagen and Theranos. These two firms provide significant illustrations of how mismanagement of technology was a prime factor that caused catastrophic failure in their operations. Enough other big firms that are cited lead to the inference that mismanagement of technology was involved on a major scale.
Carbonized PAN - Fiber Composites with Nanoscale Inclusions for Improved Thermo-Mechanical Properties
Authors: Ravi Nivedhan , Murad Md. Shafinur , Gurung Dinesh , Bakir M. , Asmatulu Ramazan
Published: April 2024

Polymeric nanocomposites are generally lighter and stronger that hold key features for many industrial applications, such as aerospace, automotive, defense, packing, electrical and electronics, biomaterials, sensors, energy, and consumer products. Their exceptional mechanical, electrical, chemical, and thermal properties help bring these materials as one of the prime focus areas in the world. Extensive research studies involving thermoplastics with nanofillers (TiO2, graphene, carbon black, and carbon nanotubes) have been conducted to produce various nanocomposites. The prime objective of this study is to develop polymeric nanocomposites by incorporating nanoparticles of graphene into polyacrylonitrile (PAN) thermoplastic where fiber reinforcement bonding is used to enhance the mechanical properties leading to very high strength-to-weight ratio polymeric nanocomposites. A mixing ratio of 20:80 for PAN and dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent was used to dissolve the PAN power using magnetic stirring. Graphene nanoparticles were then added to the solution at 0-4 wt.% ratio after which the nanocomposite coupons were prepared by casting the PANbased resin in aluminum grooves where carbon fibers and SiC fibers were placed as reinforcement materials to make them robust. After curing at room temperature, the coupons were oxidized at 200°C for 2 hours in air and then carbonized at 650°C for additional 2 hours in Ar gas. The subsequent testing and characterization studies, such as tensile, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and water contact angle have been conducted on the prepared nanocomposites. The obtained test results indicated that the mechanical and thermal properties have been significantly enhanced after the addition of a small percentage of nanoparticles into the PAN solution. This enhancement can be attributed to the fact that the surface-to-volume ratio is high for nanoparticles, thereby making them more resilient compared to traditional composites.

The purpose of LCA is to quantify resources, energy consumption and environmental loads for environmental improvement and to pursuit finally the sustainable development and balance of ecosystem. Because strategies for envrionmental protection are different from each country depending on the environmental situation, these must be considered in LCA standardization of each country.
Theories of impact quantification criteria were examined and the degree of environmetal impact was calculated on the basis of level of each impact category.
Impact quantification criteria calculated on the basis of Korea environmental level were different from each criterium calculated by each method and environmental level of each country. High criteria could be obtained in the case of highly polluted region. Therefore, if impact quantification criteria is standardized uniformly regardless of environmental level of each country, it could be underestimated for improving properly the regional environment.
Children diaper was analyzed as a case study for LCA and environmental loads were unified to make enviroment load index using impact quantification criteria on the basis of environmental level of Korea.

Authors: Kim Soung-Jin , Hur Tak
Published: April 2024

A multi-component system like an automobile is composed of several thousands of components and considerable parts of them are fabricated and manufactured outside of the product manufacturers. The manufacturing and assembly of these products represents a complex chain of processes controlled by a network of original equipment manufacturers(OEMs) and suppliers. This makes it difficult to get precise information of a great number of components which are required in order to carry out an LCA study of a multi-component product system.
In this paper, a practical and systematic LCA methodology for a multi-component system, with which a time and cost effective study can be carried out for a highly complex system is developed. The life cycle inventory for a multi-component system is established based on the ecological data of modules and sub-modules by using a combination of top-down and bottom-up approaches.

The life cycle assessment on a computer is performed in order to identify the environmental impacts during the life cycle of a computer and to establish the database to develop environmentally friendly computers. This article contains simplified results from the life cycle assessment on a computer.
A desktop PC set that consists of a PC mainframe (including Pentium II processor) and a monitor (having 17-inch screen) is chosen as the functional unit for this study. Site-specific data are collected for the component production processes and the assembly processes. Material production and energy related data are derived from literature since it is too difficult to collect site-specific data for those. The impact categories considered in this study are abiotic resource depletion, global warming, stratospheric ozone depletion, photochemical oxidant creation, acidification, eutrophication, human toxicity and eco-toxicity. The characterization results are integrated into single value through normalization and weighting.
The use phase in the life cycle of a desktop PC is the most major contribution as 54.8% of total impact assessment value. And other major contributing components in production are monitor, mother board, SMPS, modem, HDD and so on.
The results from the life cycle assessment on a computer are used to establish the strategy for improving environmental performance of computer and to provide environmental information of the product to customers.
Determination of Weighting Factor for Eco-indicator using the Relative Significance Factor(fi)
Authors: Lee Kun-Mo , Suh Sangwon
Published: April 2024

Limitations and problems associated with weighting factors based on 'Distance-to-target' or 'Delphi-like' method have been analyzed and a new weighting factor is proposed. The weighting factor proposed is a product of a reduction factor (Ni/Ti) and a relative significance factor (fi). A politically determined critical impact(Ti/fi)is assumed to cause a critical damage defined as a level of damage acceptable to a society. A graph showing the relationship between relative damage and normalized impact indicates that the weighting factor ((Ni/Ti)fi) is the slope of this graph. It further shows that the relative damage is the same as the weighted impact.

Published: April 2024

LCA has been recognized as a useful quantitative assessment tool to construct environmental management system for industry. The quality of LCIA methodology has been improved considerably as a result of continuous discussions internationally. In Japan, the researches including the weighting across impact categories have been attracted and performed comparatively to meet the requirements for easier decision making. Subjective judgment will be involved in weighting. All of the weighting methodologies proposed in Japan compare the priorities between impact categories such as greenhouse effects and acidification. They have to compare several environmental problems based on the results of midpoint level such as radiative forcing and proton release. However, a lot of category endpoints are involved in one impact category and then, the information for the receptor might be hidden in previous methods. From these backgrounds, endpoint approaches that assess total single index based on physical damages of category endpoints have been paid attention. Several methodologies have already been considered in Europe. Impact passways are dependent on substances, emission route and receptors. Consequently to develop this type of methodology, considerable researches are required. Impact assessment committee in LCA National Project of Japan started to develop the impact assessment system based on endpoint t approach. We have already developed several damage functions related with human health such as the marginal increase of thermal stress and malaria due to the emission of carbon dioxide. We can integrate damages of category endpoints reasonably with the application of years of life lost or DALY (Disability Adjusted Life Years). This paper provides the case study for electric appliance to demonstrate the effectiveness of the application of damage functions. According to the comparison between several endpoint methodologies, they showed many similar points. Those similarities cannot be obtained from the comparison between midpoint approaches. The results proved the validity of the application of endpoint approach.

A conventional life cycle assessment (LCA) framework mainly evaluates the environmental impacts associated with inputs and outputs from/to external environment of a product system. However the inputs and outputs generated from a facility influence not only the external environment but also the working environment. Therefore, this study developed the methodology that could integrates the working environment into a conventional LCA framework. It established the general requirements for adjusting the levels of the system boundary and category indicators in order to integrate appropriately the impacts of both the working environment and the external environment which have the different characteristics. Thus, this study introduced Input Output Analysis (IOA) technique in order to extend the system boundary to the life cycle of a product system, and applied the category indicator such as the number of Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY), the Potentially Affected Fraction (PAF) and Lost Work Days (LWD) in order to assess the impacts of end point level. A case study of a petrochemical company in Korea was provided as an example for illustrating the feasibility of the methodology developed in this study.
