Authors: OZBAY Harun
Published: May 2020

Bu çalışmada, batarya şarj sistemleri için yüksek frekanslı, yüksek
verimli, maksimum güç noktası takibi (MPPT) ve rezonans frekans takibi
yapabilen sistemin benzetimi yapılmıştır. Yarım köprü seri rezonans devresi ile
yüksek frekanslı anahtarlama yapılarak sistemin güç yoğunluğu artırılmış ve aynı
zamanda anahtarlama kayıpları ortadan kaldırılmıştır. Rezonans dönüştürücülü Fotovoltaik
(PV) sistemlerde etkili bir maksimum güç noktası takibi yapılabilmesi için
değişken frekans ve görev oranı kontrollü bir MPPT algoritması
geliştirilmiştir. Önerilen sistemde geliştirilen algoritma ile faz kilitlemeli
döngü (PLL) kullanılarak anahtarlama frekansı 50 kHz ile 100 kHz arasında
değiştirilmektedir. Böylece rezonans frekansının takibi her koşulda başarılı
bir şekilde sağlanmıştır. Ayrıca PV sistemdeki panellerden maksimum güç elde
edilebilmesi için görev döngüsü değiştirilen frekansa uygun olarak %20 ile %50
arasında değiştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen algoritma ile 400-1000 W/m² farklı güneş
radyasyonu seviyesi arasındaki PV panellerden elde edilebilecek maksimum güç
sisteme yüksek verimlilikle aktarılmıştır. Önerilen sistemin performansını değerlendirmek
için 600W’lık batarya şarj sisteminin benzetimi yapılarak sonuçları karşılaştırmalı
olarak sunulmuştur.

Published: May 2020

Günümüzde gelişen teknolojiye paralel olarak aydınlatma alanında yeni nesil ürünler ortaya çıkmakta ve mevcut sistemlerde iyileştirmeler yapılmaktadır. Bu iyileştirmeler genellikle konvansiyonel aydınlatma ürünlerinin ışık yayan diyotlarla (Light Emitting Diode - LED) değiştirilmesiyle gerçekleştirilmektedir. Bu değişimlerin en önemli amacı şüphesiz enerji verimliliğini artırmaktır. LED’ler uzun ömür, yüksek ışıksal etkinlik, renk kontrolü ve çevre dostu gibi önemli özelliklere sahip olmasına rağmen çalışma karakteristikleri gereği bir sürücü devresine ihtiyaç duymaktadırlar. Bu sürücü devrelerinin içerdiği güç elektroniği elemanları LED’lerin sistemden harmonikli akım çekmelerine neden olmaktadır. Bu nedenle LED sürücülerin güç kalitesi üzerine etkilerini analiz etmek ve yorumlamak çok önemlidir. Bu çalışmada, ticari olarak kullanımda olan farklı üreticilere ait LED sürücülerin harmonik içeriği, toplam harmonik bozulumu ve güç faktörü değerleri incelenmiştir. Ayrıca aynı sürücü üzerinden farklı sürme akımlarında ölçümler yapılarak sürme akımlarının güç kalitesine etkisi ortaya konulmuştur. Çalışma sonucunda, farklı üreticilere ait LED sürücülerin güç kalitesi üzerine önemli etkilerinin olduğu ve bu etkilerin sürme akımına bağlı olarak değiştiği görülmüştür.

Günlük hayatta metallerden alaşım elde etmek veya kaynak yapabilmek için metallerin eritilmesi, hızlı bir şekilde ısıtılıp soğutulması veya kısmi ısıtmanın gerçekleştirilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu tip ihtiyaçlar için kullanılan etkin yöntemlerden biri de indüksiyon ısıtma sistemidir. Elektromanyetik indüksiyon yöntemi ile ısıtma metal parçası üzerindeki nüve kayıplarının oluşturduğu ısı enerjinin kullanılmasıdır. Bu nüve kayıpları, elektromanyetik alan içerisinde bulunan iş parçasında nüve içinde değişen manyetik alanlar tarafından üretilen eddy akım kayıpları ve demir içinde domainlerin yönünü değiştirmek için oluşan histerisis kayıplarından meydana gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada, aynı ölçülerde farklı malzeme yapısında metal iş parçalarının 5 sarımlı bakır indüksiyon bobini ile farklı çalışma frekansları için bir manyetik model çıkarılarak analiz edilmiştir. Manyetik akı yoğunluğu (B) dağılımları ve iş parçalarındaki deri etkisi incelenerek eddy kayıpları sunulmuştur.
A gift programme for sustainable forest management? A Swiss perspective on public policies and property rights
Authors: Creutzburg Leonard , Ohmura Tamaki , Lieberherr Eva
Published: May 2020

Abstract. For multifunctional forests that seek to fulfil societal,
environmental and economic demands, active forest management is key.
However, like in many other western European countries, Switzerland's
small-scale private forest owners increasingly do not manage their forests.
By applying and adapting the Institutional Resource Regime (IRR), a
framework for environmental policy analysis that considers use rights both
from public policies and property rights, we analyse the situation in
Switzerland. Subsequently, we propose a Swiss forest gift programme –
based on the Canadian Ecological Gifts Program (EGP) – consisting of
different policy instruments that would ultimately lead to a transfer of
property rights from the current to new owners. In sum, we argue that our
proposal would lead to more “coherence”, with regard to the IRR's
sustainability dimension, and consequently to clearer responsibilities for
the sustainable management of forests in Switzerland.
Flip Side of the Coin: Negative Socio-Economic Implications of ICT
Authors: Samoilenko Sergey
Published: May 2020

While positive impacts of ICT have been noted and subjected to numerous academic inquiries, the negative implications are often swept under the proverbial rug and not given much attention. The subject of the negative impacts of ICT, however, is worth considering, for such impacts are observable in a variety of economies of the world and must be dealt with. An intuitive taxonomy of problems could be created based on four dimensions: social vs. economic implications and intra-economy vs. inter-economy impacts. A set of research suggestions could offer assistance in investigating negative impacts of ICT in a rigorous and relevant to the local context manner.
Creative Pedagogy: 30 Years and Counting (In Foreign Language Education and Beyond)
Authors: Aleinikov Andrei G.
Published: May 2020

This paper provides a brief overview of Creative Pedagogy as an educational trend, which was introduced over 30 years ago, in 1989, and has spread extensively around the world since that time. It also demonstrates Creative Pedagogy’s application to Foreign Language Education (FLED) and other subjects. Originally, just as creative thinking is opposed to critical thinking, Creative Pedagogy was opposed to Critical Pedagogy, but it was defined as a formula of invention—absolutely obligatory in patent description in technology and the first time in the history of education—and this made it opposed to all other types of pedagogies.. With the advent of Sozidonics, the science of creativity, where creativity was given a scientific definition, Creative Pedagogy became the only trend in education that is technologically-defined and scientifically-based. When united with Creative Andragogy, it became Creagogy—a generic science of creative education.
The Liturgy that Dare Not Speak Its Name: Religious Engagement and Affective Memory as a Site of Queer Activism in Musical Theatre
Authors: Cuskey Lusie
Published: May 2020

Cultural understandings around the spaces in which LGBTQ people belong in the contemporary United States make two clear assumptions: queer people belong in and around musical theatre, but there is no space for them in the church. This understanding of queerness and faith as antithetical carries both emotional and material costs for people who live at the intersections of those identities, and there is little research into the theatrical depictions of either those people or those costs. This article argues that musicals that include queer characters of faith who engage in liturgical acts onstage create opportunities for religious audience members to affectively engage with those characters, encouraging empathetic connection that may foster coalition-building behaviors outside the theatre. This engagement is the result of demonstrating a shared cultural memory informed by Paul Ricouer's “memory of close relations,” which builds on the affective modes of spectatorship all musical theatre invites.

Published: May 2020

Education of people of the “third age” is based on the fact that the ability to self-development and understanding of the surrounding world is reduced to the application of previously acquired knowledge in a certain period of time. At the same time, it is believed that a decrease in cognitive abilities and an increase in inaccuracies in motor skills leads to the fact that it is almost impossible to master new knowledge. Determining the extent to which this statement corresponds to psychological and educational attitudes shapes the relevance of the study. The novelty of the research is determined by the fact that, for the first time, it is proposed to approach the topic of education for people of “third age” not only as a problem, which is determined solely for increasing the employment of the population and raising the retirement age. The authors offer to consider the topic of the research as a factor in improving the standard of living and social adaptability of "third age" citizens. Models of university and distance education are considered in the article. The practical significance of the research is determined by the need to develop the issue outlined in the face of crisis and the desire of public administration to identify priorities for the formation of a qualitatively new social model. A model of comparative analysis with foreign models is used in the research as well as and the experience of implementation is offered to be implemented.
Goethe und das Judentum
Authors: Schutjer Karin
Published: May 2020

Lektüren über das Spannungsverhältnis der jüdischen Wurzeln im Werk und Denken Goethes.

Karin Schutjer untersucht Goethes ambivalente Auseinandersetzung mit dem Judentum von der Beobachtung aus, dass sie seinen ebenfalls zwiespältigen Modernebegriff zutiefst beeinflusste. Ihre Studie kontextualisiert Goethes Rezeption der jüdischen Schrifttradition und hinterfragt die Spuren, die sowohl der Pentateuch, die Kabbala und Spinoza als auch antijüdische Denkfiguren wie der Ewige oder der wandernde Jude in seinem Werk hinterlassen haben.
Schutjers Lektüren von »Dichtung und Wahrheit«, »Hermann und Dorothea«, »Wilhelm Meisters Wanderjahren«, »Faust« und Goethes Volksbuch-Projekt bringen aufschlussreiche Erkenntnisse zutage, die Goethes Kritik an der jüdischen Emanzipationsbewegung überraschend in ein neues Licht rücken, wenn beispielsweise Faust als Moses-Figur gelesen wird, sich Goethes Semiotik aus dem jüdischen Verbot des Götzendienstes speist oder das Alte Testament vor dem Hintergrund der jüdischen Exilgeschichte als säkulare Nationalliteratur gedeutet wird, die Goethe als Vorbild für eine diasporische schriftbezogene deutsche Kulturnation verstand.
Die Zufallshaftung im Bürgerlichen Recht
Authors: Seitz Alexander
Published: May 2020

Why should a person be liable for circumstances that are beyond his control? The work by Alexander Seitz focuses on this question.

Starting from an introduction to the concept of chance and the dogmatic foundations of the principle of fault, he analyses the provisions of this form of liability in the German Civil Code. This analysis reveals the diversity of this form of liability. The author examines the dogmatic differences between the liability for Acts of God and the liability for random damages in the context of the principles of causality and fault. Furthermore, the author assesses the effectiveness of the establishment of a liability for Acts of God as an instrument of the legislator to control behaviour.
Effect of Laminar Flow on the Corrosion Activity of AA6061-T6 in Seawater
Authors: Acosta Gloria , Veleva Lucien , Chávez Luis , L. López Juan
Published: May 2020

The electrochemical behaviour and surface changes on AA6061-T6 alloy exposed to Caribbean seawater from the Cozumel Channel for 30 days under laminar flow (0.1 ms−1) were studied, these contrasting then with stationary conditions. Open circuit potential monitoring and electrochemical current fluctuations, considered as electrochemical noise (EN), were employed as two nondestructive methods. The calculated corrosion current, based on Rn, was one order higher in laminar flow. The fluctuations of current were transformed in the frequency domain. Their power spectral density (PSD) plots were obtained in order to gain information concerning the dynamic of the spontaneous release of energy during the corrosion process. The value of the exponent β in PSD graphs suggested that the localised corrosion on AA6061-T6 surface occurs as a persistent stationary process, which dynamic is controlled by oxygen diffusion. The changes in the morphology and elemental composition of the formed layers revealed that the localised attacks occurred in the vicinity of intermetallic particles rich in Fe and Cu, which act as cathodes.
Health Security and the Refugee Crisis in Greece: The Refugee Perspective
Authors: Papadimos Thomas , Pappada Scott , Lyaker Michael , Papadimos James , Casabianca Andrew
Published: May 2020

The flight of refugees has been part of the human condition since the beginning of time. Recent events in the Middle East have caused a mass migration of refugees from Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Their primary destination has been Europe, more specifically, the affluent, better industrialized countries of central and northern Europe. However, the European law currently requires that refugees must be processed at the first port of entry to Europe. In most cases, this involves the eastern Aegean Sea islands of Greece. Here the refugee camps have become overcrowded and underfunded, and have little medical care and security. The Greek government has limited resources and the response for support from the more affluent European countries has been underwhelming. Here we summarize the lack of health security from the refugee perspective of those that are awaiting entry to Europe and are encamped in Greece.
Polygonal Approximation of Digital Planar Curve Using Novel Significant Measure
Authors: Ramaiah Mangayarkarasi , Kumar Prasad Dilip
Published: May 2020

This chapter presents an iterative smoothing technique for polygonal approximation of digital image boundary. The technique starts with finest initial segmentation points of a curve. The contribution of initially segmented points toward preserving the original shape of the image boundary is determined by computing the significant measure of every initial segmentation point that is sensitive to sharp turns, which may be missed easily when conventional significant measures are used for detecting dominant points. The proposed method differentiates between the situations when a point on the curve between two points on a curve projects directly upon the line segment or beyond this line segment. It not only identifies these situations but also computes its significant contribution for these situations differently. This situation-specific treatment allows preservation of points with high curvature even as revised set of dominant points are derived. Moreover, the technique may find its application in parallel manipulators in detecting target boundary of an image with varying scale. The experimental results show that the proposed technique competes well with the state-of-the-art techniques.
G. W. F. Hegel’in Estetik Üzerine Dersleri ve Sanatın Sonuna İlişkin Tezler
Authors: Şiray Mehmet ,   Kilikya Felsefe Dergisi
Published: May 2020

G. W. F. Hegel’in 1820’de gerçekleştirdiği Estetik, Güzel Sanatlar Üzerine Dersler’i bugün hâlâ estetik üzerine en çok tartışılan tezlerden biri olan sanatın sonu iddiası ile sıklıkla gündeme gelmektedir. Kuşkusuz Hegel’in notlarının böylesi bir iddiaya ev sahipliği yapıp yapmadığı çok tartışılan felsefi bir meseledir. Kimilerine göre Hegel, romantik sanatın estetiğin sonunu getirdiğini ima etmiştir, kimilerine göreyse son fikri modern dönemde sanatın sonuna dair bir işaret olarak okunmalıdır. Kuşkusuz Hegel’in estetik üzerine düşüncelerinin güncel sanat üzerine yapılan tartışmalarla ilişkilendirilmesi birçok bakımdan ufuk açıcıdır; ancak bağlamından kopmadan, yani bir bakıma son fikrinin Hegel estetiğinde nasıl tecelli ettiği tartışılmadan bu ilişkiyi kurmak bizi Hegel felsefesinden uzağa doğru sürükleyecektir. Bu yanlış anlamayı gidermek adına aşağıdaki incelemede öncelikle Hegel’in ilgili görüşlerine açıklık getirmeyi amaçlamaktayım. Ardından Hegel’e atfedilen kimi görüşlerin izini sürerek bunların geçerliliklerini ortaya koymaya çalışacağım. Son olarak da Hegel estetiğinin ana hatlarına tekrar dönerek sanatın sonu tezinin nasıl yorumlanabileceği üzerine kendi düşüncelerimi dile getireceğim.
Tıp Etiğinden Bio-Etiğe: Fritz Jahr
Authors: Aşar Haluk ,   Kilikya Felsefe Dergisi
Published: May 2020

Genel olarak biyoetik teriminin ilk kez 1970 yılında Van Rensselaer Potter ve Andre Hellegers tarafından kullanıldığı düşünülür. Fakat bir terim ve kavram olarak biyoetik ilk kez bir papaz ve etikçi olan Fritz Jahr’ın 1927 yılında Alman bilim dergisi Kosmos’da yayımlanan “Biyo-Etik: İnsanların Hayvanlar ve Bitkilerle Etik İlişkisine Yeniden Bir Bakış” (Bio-Ethics: A Review of the Ethical Relationship of Humans to Animals and Plants) adlı makalesinde ortaya konulmuştur. İlk kez Jahr biyoetik terimini ortaya atmasına rağmen, bugün biyoetik terimi tanımından farklı olarak tıp etiği ile benzer anlamda kullanılmaktadır. Örneğin Warren Reich, biyoetiği yaşam bilimleri ve sağlık bakımı alanındaki insan davranışlarının, incelenebildiği ölçüde, sistematik bir şekilde incelenmesi olarak tanımlamaktadır. Ancak Jahr yaşam bilimlerinin ortaya çıkardığı bilimsel verilerden hareketle yeniden değerlendirdiği etiğin sadece insan yaşamını değil, tüm yaşamı kutsal sayması gerektiği sonucuna ulaşır. Bu bakımdan Jahr eskiden doğa bilimlerine yön veren felsefenin, şimdi kendi sistemini doğa bilimlerinin bilgisi üzerine inşa etmek zorunda olduğunu belirtir. Bu aslında onun için bir devrimdir ve kendisi de etik alanında bir Kopernik devrimi gerçekleştirmiştir.
Açık Sınırlar mı Kapalı Sınırlar mı: İşte Bütün Mesele Bu Mu?
Authors: Kibar Sibel ,   Kilikya Felsefe Dergisi
Published: May 2020

Bu çalışma, son yıllarda muazzam düzeyde artan göç dalgalarıyla ve göçmenlik talepleriyle yaşanan insanlık krizine yönelik üretilen felsefi argümanları değerlendirmekte ve eksiklerini sergilemektedir. Felsefecilerden Carens, Kukathas, Wilcox ve Blake gibi bazıları sınırların zor durumdaki göçmenlerin tamamına açılması gerektiğini savunurken; Miller, Wellman, Rawls, Kymlicka ve Walzer gibi diğer düşünürler, devletlerin de hakları olduğunu ve dilediğinde sınırlarını dilediği göçmenlere veya mültecilere kapatabileceğini savunurlar. Pogge ve Wellman, yoksul, siyasi baskı altında ve/veya savaş koşullarında yaşayan insanlara sınırların dışında yardım etme ödevini gerekçelendirirler. Esasen liberal eşitlikçi adalet kuramcılarının çoğu, göç konusunda koşulsuz şartsız sınırların açılması tezini savunamamaktadırlar zira göç olgusu ulusal düzeyde adaletin nasıl dağıtılacağından çok daha çetrefilli bir konudur. Bu çalışmada, sınırların göçmenlere açılması, sınır kontrolünün devletin hakkı olduğu ve sınırların dışındaki tahakkümün engellenmesi olarak adlandırılabilecek yaklaşımların argümanları değerlendirilerek; sınırların açılması talebinin hem göçmenler hem de mevcut vatandaşlar açısından pek çok olası tehlikeyi (aracı mafyatik sektörlerin doğması ve beslenmesi, güvenlik tehdidi, açlık, yoksulluk, işsizlik, kamusal yaşama aktif katılamama vb.) göz ardı ettiğini vurgulanmaktadır. Öte yandan, sınırların göçmenlere kapatılması yaklaşımı ise, göç edilmek istenilen ülkelerin savaşlardaki ve küresel yoksulluktaki payını görmezden gelerek, mültecilerin ve göçmenlerin yaşam hakkını hiçe sayar. Sınırların açılmaması gerektiğini savunanlardan Wellman ve Pogge tahakküm olgusuna dikkat çekerek, sınırların dışındakilere maddi ve teknik yardım sağlayarak ve askeri müdahaleyle tahakkümün önlenmesi gerektiğini savunurlar. Bu çalışmada, tahakküm altındaki ve özellikle ölüm kalım savaşı veren insanlara karşı ahlaki olarak yükümlü olduğumuz ama bu ahlaki yükümlülüğün içeriğinin ve kapsamının sınırların iki tarafındaki tahakküm ilişkilerini göz önünde bulundurarak belirlenmesi gerektiği ortaya konulmaktadır. Göç olgusu ve göçmenlerin maruz kaldıkları tahakküm ve temel insan hakları ihlalleri, bir tarafta egemen devletlerin hakları diğer tarafta mültecilerin veya göçmenlerin yaşama hakkı ikileminden farklı bir düzlemde tartışılmalıdır. Tahakkümü önleyecek kalıcı mekanizmalar yaratılmadan, göçmenleri içeride de dışarıda da ölümden daha ciddi tehlikeler beklemektedir.
Merleau-Ponty’nin Bedenlenme Fenomenolojisi
Authors: Aydin Aysun ,   Kilikya Felsefe Dergisi
Published: May 2020

Bu çalışmanın amacı Fransız düşünür Maurice Merleau-Ponty’nin fenomenolojik yaklaşımını bir bedenlenme teorisi olarak ele almak ve düşünürün kavramsal çerçevesini bedenlenmiş özne ya da bedenlenmiş bilinç kavramı bağlamında sunmaktır. Merleau-Ponty’nin felsefesi öznenin dünya ile ilişkisini algı fenomenolojisi temelinde sunan ve bu noktada algının öznenin bedenselliğinden bağımsız değerlendirilemeyeceğini, algının öznenin bu dünyada bedenli bulunuşuna ait olduğunu söyler. Bu bağlamda düşünür algı zemininde bir beden fenomenolojisi sunar. Merleau-Ponty’nin kendisinin de sıklıkla dile getirdiği gibi, düşünürün bu yaklaşımı geleneksel felsefenin epistemolojik ve ontolojik ayrımlarına, özne ve düşünme süreçlerine dair tanımlamalarına bir karşı çıkıştır. Bununla birlikte, çağdaş ontolojik tartışmalarda, düşünürün felsefesi ve sözü edilen bağlamda sunduğu bedenlenme kavramsallaştırması felsefenin farklı alanlarında ilgi görmekte ve bu tartışmalardaki bedenlenme teorileri arasında yer almaktadır. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışmanın amacı, Merleau-Ponty’nin bedenlenme fenomenolojisini bilinç-beden bütünlüğü kavramı çerçevesinde ele almak ve düşünürün felsefesini geleneksel düalizmlere ve bu düalizmlerin çağdaş felsefedeki yansımalarına bir karşı çıkış olarak değerlendirmektir.

Published: May 2020

Bu yazıda Rus filozof Mikhail Bakhtin’in, özellikle karnaval, diyaloji ve grotesk realizm kavramları çerçevesinde, toplumsal ve politik tahayyülüne dair bir tartışma yürütülmeye çalışılmış ve bu kavramların politik içerimlerinin esasen zamansal olarak yüklü olduğu iddia edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda, antik Yunan’daki iki farklı kronolojik (khronos) ve kairolojik (kairos) zaman anlayışı üzerinden, Bakhtin’in zaman ve tarihi politik bir zeminde, karnaval, diyaloji ve grotesk realizm kavramsallaştırması çerçevesinde nasıl ele aldığı gösterilmiştir. Bakhtin’in kronolojik, lineer ve ereksel bir tarih anlayışı karşısında kairolojik bir zamansallık, lineer ve ereksel olmayan bir tarih anlayışı ortaya koyduğu gösterilmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu açıdan Bakhtin’in ütopik bir materyalizmi savunduğu, karnaval, diyaloji ve grotesk realizm kavramlarının da esasen ütopik bir materyalizme ve bir eşik-zamana işaret ettiği ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır.
A Direção de Fotografia no Cinema: uma abordagem sistêmica sobre seu processo de criação
Authors: Santos Marcelo Moreira
Published: May 2020

O presente artigo tem como objetivo entender o papel do Diretor de Fotografia dentro de uma produção cinematográfica de caráter ficcional. Tendo como fundamento analítico os teóricos dos sistemas Edgar Morin e Jorge Vieira, o texto nos conduz a uma reflexão sobre o processo de co-autoria, fugindo das simplificações e trazendo a complexidade à poética do cinema. O artigo ainda aborda os aspectos antogônicos e contraditórios de duas metodologias de produção: a) de um lado o burocratizado modelo hollywoodiano fordista-taylorista adotado como parâmetro organizacional em produções cinematográficas no começo do século XX pelo cinema de indústria; b) de outro o modelo elitizado e romântico do “cinema de autor” cuja matriz relega apenas ao cineasta a assinatura de um filme; para depois complexificá-los por meio de parâmetros sistêmicos de análise. O artigo termina expondo o caminho evolutivo encontrado no processo de criação vinculado ao Diretor de Fotografia e qual seu papel na consolidação da poética cinemática de um diretor de cinema, e ainda aborda o caráter poli-funcional das produções atuais em que este profissional também assume ou acumula outras funções na confecção de um filme em plataforma digital.

Salah satu tindakan perlakuan karantina yang diakui oleh lembaga internasional dan aman bagi konsumen adalah penggunaan iradiasi sinar gamma pada dosis yang direkomendasikan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menguji keefektifan dosis generik iradiasi sinar gamma [60Co] untuk mensterilisasi kumbang Sternochetus frigidus (Fabricius) pada buah mangga kuini (Mangifera odorata Griff). Sebanyak 300 kg buah kuini yang dipastikan terinfestasi S. frigidus diambil dari Sumatera Barat dan Lampung. Perlakuan iradiasi sinar gamma pada dosis 50, 100, 150, 200, 300, dan 400 Gy masing-masing dilakukan terhadap 6–8 buah kuini per kotak dan diulang tiga kali. Perlakuan iradiasi dilakukan dalam dua percobaan. Percobaan pertama pada bulan April untuk buah kuini asal Sumatera Barat dan yang kedua pada bulan Mei untuk buah yang berasal dari Lampung. Perlakuan iradiasi sinar gamma menurunkan kemampuan makan, hidup normal, produksi telur, dan meningkatkan kematian imago. Iradiasi sinar gamma memengaruhi perkembangan pupa dan imago. Pengaruh iradiasi sinar gamma terhadap hidup normal imago lebih tinggi ditunjukkan pada percobaan pertama dengan waktu pengamatan pada minggu ke delapan dibandingkan dengan pengamatan percobaan kedua dengan waktu pengamatan pada minggu ke empat. Pupa yang diiradiasi pada dosis 100 Gy masih mampu menjadi imago, namun tidak mampu menghasilkan telur. Imago yang diiradiasi pada 150 Gy masih mampu bertelur dengan rataan 6 butir (percobaan pertama) dan 2,3 butir (percobaan kedua), namun telur yang dihasilkan tidak mampu berkembang menjadi larva. Imago yang diradiasi pada dosis 200 Gy tidak mampu menghasilkan telur untuk kedua percobaan.
Læring på og i Blended Learning
Authors: Dau Susanne
Published: May 2020

Forskningen peger på, at der mangler viden om, hvad der karakteriserer læringen i Blended Learning, og hvordan læreprocesser præges af disse fleksibelt tilrettelagte uddannelser. Mange forskningsartikler har blot rammesat, hvilken epistemologisk læringsopfattelse de læner sig op ad frem for at undersøge, hvad der er det særegne ved netop læringen i fleksibelt tilrettelagte uddannelsesforløb. Denne artikel analyserer forskelle og ligheder i 2 måder at tilgå og beskrive læringen. På baggrund af analyserne diskuteres, hvilken betydning de forskellige udgangspunkter for læring får for forståelse af læreprocesserne i de fleksible undervisningsmiljøer, og hvilke muligheder og begrænsninger de 2 perspektiver giver for måden at tilrettelægge Blended Learning på. Det konkluderes, at der på trods af sammenfald i de forskellige tilgange til at beskrive og definere læringen også er væsensforskelle. Hvor læring som tilkobling primært relaterer sig til konstruktivistiske og socialkonstruktivistiske perspektiver, så inkluderer læring udledt af empirisk forskning i Blended Learning andre centrale begreber.
Effective Judicial Protection in EU Law: an Evolving Principle of a Constitutional Nature
Authors: Bonelli Matteo
Published: May 2020

Effective judicial protection emerged as a EU law principle in the 1980s, operating alongside the Rewe principles of equivalence and effectiveness as a standard to assess national procedures for the enforcement of EU law. This article argues that the codification of effective judicial
protection in Article 19 TEU and 47 of the Charter, operated by the Lisbon Treaty, has stimulated an evolution of the principle, which is evident in the recent case law of the Court of Justice. Today, effective judicial protection operates not only as a procedural principle, but also as a
more substantive and structural one, and has generally acquired broader constitutional relevance. This evolution has crucial effects on the EU legal order: most importantly, it affects the division of competences between Member States and the EU, and between the Court of Justice and national
courts.

Introduction and Objective

Dentists experience high amounts of professional stress beginning with their student years in dental school. This stress, given its early onset, may negatively impact the personal and professional lives of these individuals, as well as the quality of their clinical work. We sought to create an objective scale to evaluate the levels of stress in students at different stages of their education, as well as in practicing physicians.

Materials and Methods

Thirty dental students participated in this study, with 10 students each selected from junior, mid-senior, and senior classes. They were randomly divided into two groups in which one group was subjected to stressors while the other group was not. JINS MEME ES_R (JINS) smart glasses and Garmin Vivoactive 3 smartwatches were used to obtain data, including electrooculography (EOG), heart rate (HR), and accelerometer (ACC) and gyroscope (GYRO) feedback, while the subjects performed a dental exercise on a phantom tooth.

Results

The heart rates of more experienced students were lower than those of the junior students. The EOG, ACC, and GYRO signals showed multiple differences in the measurement of amplitudes and frequency of episodes.

Conclusion

Our pilot results show that electronic tools, like smart glasses with software and sensors, are useful for monitoring the stress levels of dental students in preclinical operating conditions. We would like to further assess the stress levels in students performing dental procedures on phantom teeth and in later clinical interactions with patients.

Published: May 2020

Geochemical analyses applied to lake sedimentary records can reveal the history of pollution by metals and the effects of remedial efforts. Lakes provide ideal environments for geochemical studies because they have steady deposition of fine grained material suitable for fixation of pollutants. The Laurentian Great Lakes are the most studied system in this field, and they have well-preserved chronological profiles. To date, this important system has been considered in parts for inorganic geochemistry, hampering basin-wide conclusions regarding metal contamination. We filled spatial and temporal gaps in a comprehensive geochemical analysis of 11 sediment cores collected from all five Great Lakes. Hierarchical cluster analysis of all Great Lakes samples divided the metal analytes into five functional groups: (1) carbonate elements; (2) metals and oxides with diverse natural sources, including a subgroup of analytes known to be anthropogenically enriched (Cd, Pb, Sn, Zn, and Sb); (3) common crustal elements; (4) metals related to coal and nuclear power generation; and (5) all of the co-occurring rare earth elements. Two contamination indices (Igeo and EF) applied to sedimentary metals indicated that Na, Co, Mn, Cd, Pb, Ta, and Cu were each, at some point during the Anthropocene, the most enriched metal pollutants in Great Lakes sediments. Land uses correlated with the metal analytes, such as increases in contaminant metals with the rise in catchment population and increases in carbonate elements (e.g. Ca) with agriculture. Certain contamination trends were observed basin-wide, such as for the atmospheric pollutant Pb, which followed a rise associated with fossil fuel combustion and a decline following the ban of leaded gasoline. Other trends were lake-specific, such as recent high concentrations of Na in Lake Superior, likely due to road salt applications, and a late-20th-century peak in Ca associated with algal whiting events in Lake Ontario. Some metals exceeded guidelines for sediment quality, in some cases prior to European settlement of the basin, indicating that a paleolimnological context is important for appropriate management of sediment contamination. The Great Lakes are sensitive to environmental changes such as pollution by metals, and it is clear that while there has been remedial success, results from the uppermost intervals of cores indicate ongoing problems.

Published: May 2020

Aims: This study was aimed at evaluating the in-vitro anti-inflammatory potential of crude extracts of Euphorbia lateriflora. 

Place of Study: Department of Biochemistry, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Nigeria.

Methodology: The in-vitro anti-inflammatory activity of aqueous and ethanol extracts of E. lateriflora were evaluated via anti-lipoxygenase and red cell membrane stabilization assays using spectrophotometric technique.

Results: The aqueous and ethanol extracts demonstrated significant anti-lipoxygenase activity with the aqueous extracts (IC50: 0.34 mg/ml) and the ethanol extracts (IC50: 0.25 mg/ml), showing comparable activity with standard indomethacin (0.27 mg/ml). Contrary to what was observed in the anti-lipoxygenase study, the aqueous extract demonstrated a better membrane stabilization activity with IC50 (1.13 mg/ml) than the ethanol extracts (5.44 mg/ml). The standard diclofenac drug had an IC50 of 1.02 mg/kg. Both the aqueous and the ethanol extracts demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory activity.

Conclusion: Observation from this study established the considerable anti-inflammatory potential of this plant by inhibiting lipoxygenase activity and stabilization the membrane of the red blood cells.

Authors: Yokogawa Naoto , Shimada Kota , Sugii Shoji , Komiya Akiko , Matsui Toshihiro , Nishino Jinju , Tohma Shigeto
Published: May 2020

Objective

We aimed to standardize the definition of low disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) group's proposed definition of minimal disease activity.

Method

Based on a nationwide RA database, we proposed new Boolean low disease activity criteria using OMERACT's core set definition of minimal disease activity that requires the fulfillment of at least five of the following seven core set measures: a pain score of 2 or less, a swollen joint count (SJC28) of 1 or fewer, a tender joint count of 1 or fewer, a Health Assessment Questionnaire score of 0.5 or less, a Physician's Global Assessment score of 1.5 or less, a Patient's Global Assessment score of 2 or less, and an erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) of 20 mm/h or less. Using receiver operating characteristic analysis, we determined the cutoffs for the Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI), Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3 (RAPID3), and the Disease Activity Score in 28 joints (DAS28)–ESR.

Results

Of 8298 patients, 56.2% met the proposed Boolean low disease activity criteria. We determined an SDAI score of 5.5 or less and a CDAI score of 5 or less to be the new cutoffs, and we chose a DAS28 of 2.85 or less (the original cutoff for DAS‐based minimal disease activity) and a RAPID3 score of 6 or less (the original cutoff for RAPID3‐based low disease activity) with or without a swollen joint count (SJC) (SJC of 2 or fewer) as the cutoffs for DAS28 and RAPID3. The agreement between the new cutoffs for DAS28 of 2.85 or less vs. CDAI score of 5 or less, CDAI score of 5 or less vs. RAPID3 score of 6 or less (with SJC of 2 or fewer), and DAS28 of 2.85 or less vs. RAPID3 score of 6 or less (with SJC of 2 or fewer), was 0.619, 0.612 (0.702), and 0.474 (0.531), respectively.

Conclusion

OMERACT's minimal disease activity definition may be used to standardize the criteria for low disease activity.

Authors: Wang Xiaoliang , Liu Xiaoman , Huang Xin
Published: May 2020

The ability of living organisms to perform structure, energy, and information‐related processes for molecular self‐assembly through compartmentalization and chemical transformation can possibly be mimicked via artificial cell models. Recent progress in the development of various types of functional microcompartmentalized ensembles that can imitate rudimentary aspects of living cells has refocused attention on the important question of how inanimate systems can transition into living matter. Hence, herein, the most recent advances in the construction of protein‐bounded microcompartments (proteinosomes), which have been exploited as a versatile synthetic chassis for integrating a wide range of functional components and biochemical machineries, are critically summarized. The techniques developed for fabricating various types of proteinosomes are discussed, focusing on the significance of how chemical information, substance transportation, enzymatic‐reaction‐based metabolism, and self‐organization can be integrated and recursively exploited in constructed ensembles. Therefore, proteinosomes capable of exhibiting gene‐directed protein synthesis, modulated membrane permeability, spatially confined membrane‐gated catalytic reaction, internalized cytoskeletal‐like matrix assembly, on‐demand compartmentalization, and predatory‐like chemical communication in artificial cell communities are specially highlighted. These developments are expected to bridge the gap between materials science and life science, and offer a theoretical foundation for developing life‐inspired assembled materials toward various applications.

Published: May 2020

Background

External approaches to the frontal sinus such as osteoplastic flaps are challenging because they require blind entry into the sinus, posing risks of injury to the brain or orbit. Intraoperative computed tomography (CT)‐based navigation is the current standard for planning the approach, but still necessitates blind entry into the sinus. The aim of this work was to describe a novel technique for external approaches to the frontal sinus using a holographic augmented reality (AR) application.

Methods

Our team developed an AR system to create a 3‐dimensional (3D) hologram of key anatomical structures, based on CT scans images. Using Magic Leap AR goggles for visualization, the frontal sinus hologram was aligned to the surface anatomy in 6 fresh cadaveric heads’ anatomic boundaries, and the boundaries of the frontal sinus were demarcated based on the margins of the fused image. Trephinations and osteoplastic flap approaches were performed. The specimens were re‐scanned to assess the accuracy of the osteotomy with respect to the actual frontal sinus perimeter.

Results

Registration and surgery were completed successfully in all specimens. Registration required an average of 2 minutes. The postprocedure CT showed a mean difference of 1.4 ± 4.1 mm between the contour of the osteotomy and the contour of the frontal sinus. One surgical complication (posterior table perforation) occurred (16%).

Conclusion

We describe proof of concept of a novel technique utilizing AR to enhance external approaches to the frontal sinus. Holographic AR‐enhanced surgical navigation holds promise for enhanced visualization of target structures during surgical approaches to the sinuses.
Blockade of Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 as a Strategy for Reducing Inflammation and Joint Destruction in Rheumatoid Arthritis Via Altered Interleukin‐15 and Dkk‐1 Signaling in Fibroblast‐Like Synoviocytes

Published: May 2020

Objective

This study was undertaken to uncover the pathophysiologic role of discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR‐2), a putative fibrillar collagen receptor, in inflammation promotion and joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods

In synovial tissue from patients with RA and from mice with collagen antibody–induced arthritis (CAIA) (using Ddr2−/− and DBA/1 mice), gene and protein expression levels of DDR‐2, interleukin‐15 (IL‐15), and Dkk‐1 were measured by quantitative reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. Gene knockdown of DDR2 in human RA fibroblast‐like synoviocytes (FLS) was conducted via small interfering RNA. Interaction between the long noncoding RNA H19 and microRNA 103a (miR‐103a) was assessed in RA FLS using RNA pulldown assays. Cellular localization of H19 was examined using fluorescence in situ hybridization assays. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual luciferase reporter assays were applied to verify H19 transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation by miR‐103a.

Results

DDR2 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression was significantly associated with the levels of IL‐15 and Dkk‐1 mRNA in the synovial tissue of RA patients (r2 = 0.2022–0.3293, all P < 0.05; n = 33) and with the serum levels of IL‐15 and Dkk‐1 in mice with CAIA (P < 0.05). In human RA FLS, activated DDR‐2 induced the expression of H19 through c‐Myc. Moreover, H19 directly interacted with and promoted the degradation of miR‐103a.

Conclusion

These results indicate a novel role for activated DDR‐2 in RA FLS, showing that DDR‐2 is responsible for regulating the expression of IL‐15 and Dkk‐1 in RA FLS and is involved in the promotion of inflammation and joint destruction during pathophysiologic development of RA. Moreover, DDR‐2 inhibition, acting through the H19–miR‐103a axis, leads to reductions in the inflammatory reaction and severity of joint destruction in mice with CAIA, suggesting that inhibition of DDR‐2 may be a potential therapeutic strategy for RA.

COVID‐19 threatens millions of lives, especially elderly population and people with chronic diseases including diabetes, hypertension, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases. Rapid and effective diagnoses are vital for the isolation of infected people and starting treatment immediately to stop the spread of COVID‐19 virus. Bioinformatics techniques such as artificial intelligence should be used for collecting the hemogram and serum biochemistry data of all COVID‐19‐ infected people worldwide, even they do not show severe symptoms. These data may help find a biomarker that can be used in combination with the CT results for rapid and accurate diagnosis of COVID‐19.
