ANALYSIS THE WETTED AREA FOR SUBSURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION IN DIFFERENT SOILS TEXTURE
Authors: Rasheed Z. K.
Published: June 2020

Subsurface drip irrigation is one of the most efficient systems for management of water.  This study is aimed to analysis the wetted area for subsurface drip irrigation system.  Several models are developed for predicting the wetted widths and the wetted depths which are very important for designing an optimal irrigation system. HYDRUS/2D is used for predicting the dimensions of wetting patterns numerically by using the two dimensional transient flow of water from a subsurface drip irrigation through sandy loam and loamy sand soils.   The wetting patterns from a subsurface drip source are simulated by using the system of United States Department of Agriculture, USDA, the wetting patterns are simulated at different values of applied heads, different diameters of drip, and different values of initial volumetric soil water contents which selected as initial conditions.  In this work, greater spreading occurs in loamy sand than sandy loam in vertical and horizontal directions. Moreover, the results showed that the empirical formulas which can be used for estimating the wetting dimensions of wetted width and wetted depth in terms of initial volumetric soil water contents, applied heads, diameters of the drip and times of operation, are good with an average relative error not exceed 3%, so it can be used to assist the designers in irrigation field.
Carne viva: a estreia literária de Mario Soldati em Portugal
Authors: Castagna Vanessa
Published: June 2020

O presente artigo aborda a primeira tradução em português do romance Le lettere da Capri (1954) do escritor italiano Mario Soldati, que pode ser considerado um caso de estudo pertinente para a descrição do sistema de normas implícitas que orientavam a produção de literatura traduzida em Portugal nos anos 1950, em pleno Estado Novo. O enquadramento teórico que subjaz à análise é o dos estudos descritivos de tradução inaugurados por Gideon Toury, que leva a observar e a interpretar os elementos fornecidos pelo metatexto (Carne Viva, 1955), no sentido de reconstruir as expectativas perante uma tradução literária de ficção narrativa nessa determinada época e nesse específico espaço cultural. De acordo com a análise proposta, o critério que se revela predominante no processo tradutório, neste caso, é o da maior aceitabilidade, ou seja, de uma forte adesão às normas do sistema cultural de chegada.
Melville reconstituído: fontes textuais e elaboração literária na tradução de Jaqueta-branca, ou o mundo em um navio-de-guerra, de Herman Melville
Authors: Gambarotto Bruno
Published: June 2020

O ensaio expõe questionamentos sobre a autoria na tradução a partir de um estudo de caso: a tradução de Bruno Gambarotto para o português de White-Jacket, or the World in a Man-of-war, de Herman Melville (Jorge Zahar Editor, no prelo). Tendo por fundo a investigação do horizonte tradutório aberto por perspectivas hermenêuticas ou funcionalistas do texto literário traduzido, nossa ideia é a de observar a operação textual inerente à prática do tradutor mediante o confronto das categorias de autoria e texto. O caso de White-Jacket interessa por suas particularidades: a incorporação literária de terminologia técnica – um vasto vocabulário náutico, mormente tratado com parcimônia pela literatura náutica dos séculos XVIII e XIX, produzida sob o signo da aventura; e a construção de um texto que arregimenta diferentes convenções de gênero e posições ideológicas, presentes na produção documentária de marinheiros e oficiais da marinha, consultada pelo autor. Para trabalhar com tal texto, o tradutor voltou-se a uma pesquisa sobre a própria tradição literária luso-brasileira (dicionários, tratados e narrativas em língua portuguesa) para reconstruir retoricamente a auctoritas do narrador em primeira pessoa da obra de Melville.

Merupa Wujud Evangelikalisme di Indonesia: Suatu Usulan Awal
Authors: Yosia Adrianus
Published: June 2020

Shaping the Form of Evangelicalism in Indonesia: A Preliminary Proposal
This article was written as a preliminary opinion to explore the "public face" of evangelicalism as a movement in Indonesia. Furthermore, this article will discuss who are the evangelicals in Indonesia, the theological characteristics of the evangelicals, and the form of evangelical's participation in Indonesia. The writer will argue that the modification from Bebbington's Quadrilateral, Larsen's Pentagram, can be theological characteristics from the evangelicals in Indonesia. As a consequence, this article will propose two ways of movements from evangelicalism in Indonesia, which are the inward and outward movements. The inward movement is the spirit of the evangelical church to reform itself, while the outward flow is the eagerness of the evangelical church to reform the social condition. Thus, these are initial observations for shaping evangelicalism in Indonesia.
Artikel ini merupakan suatu usulan awal untuk mengejawantahkan bagaimana rupa “muka publik” dari gerakan injili di Indonesia. Artikel ini akan membahas siapakah kaum injili di Indonesia, karakteristik teologis dari kaum injili, dan wujud usulan partisipasi gerakan injili di Indonesia. Karakteristik teologis dari kaum injili yang penulis usulkan adalah modifikasi dari Quadrilateral Bebbington, yaitu Pentagram Larsen. Sebagai dampaknya, artikel ini ingin mengusulkan dua gerakan dari merupa wujud gerakan injili di Indonesia, yaitu gerakan ke dalam dan gerakan keluar. Gerakan ke dalam ini merupakan semangat gereja untuk terus mereformasi diri, sedangkan gerakan ke luar ini merupakan semangat gereja untuk mereformasi kondisi sosial. Inilah suatu usulan awal dari merupa wujud gerakan injili di Indonesia.

Evidence of God's Righteous Judgment in 2 Thessalonians 1:3-10 According to Discourse Analysis Approach The theme of the righteous judgment of God is an important theme in 2 Thessalonians 1. This theme has a connection with the situation of the Thessalonians, who were currently undergoing persecution. This paper will explain how Paul developed the theme of God's righteous judgment in 2 Thessalonians 1:3-10 by using the discourse analysis approach. This paper will demonstrate that a righteous God will judge everyone by punishing the oppressors and rewarding the believers. Discourse analysis is used in this paper because it is an approach that can provide a stronger foundation when analyzing a text and provides objective criteria when investigating the problem of a text. The purpose of this paper is to encourage believers to have comfort and strength when experiencing persecution because a righteous God will judge every human being. Penghakiman Allah yang adil merupakan tema yang penting di dalam 2 Tesalonika. Tema ini memiliki keterkaitan dengan keadaan jemaat Tesalonika yang saat itu sedang terus-menerus mengalami penganiayaan. Makalah ini akan memaparkan bagaimana Paulus mengembangkan tema penghakiman Allah yang adil di 2 Tesalonika 1:3-10 menurut pendekatan Analisis Wacana. Makalah ini juga akan memaparkan bahwa Allah adalah adil dan Allah akan menghakimi setiap orang dengan memberi pembalasan kepada para penindas dan upah kepada setiap orang yang tetap setia kepada Kristus. Untuk itu orang percaya saat ini memiliki penghiburan dan kekuatan ketika mengalami penganiayaan karena iman kepada Yesus Kristus.
The New Testament in Its World: An Introduction to the History, Literature, and Theology of the First Christians
Authors: Hauw Andreas
Published: June 2020

Buku ini adalah karya yang terbaru dalam genrenya. Namun, buku ini bukan yang terbaru dalam pendekatannya—sejarah, sastra dan teologi, sebab Mark Allan Powell telah menulis pengantar Perjanjian Baru (PB) dengan metode yang sama. Kendati demikian, buku ini unik. Pertama, sebagai buku sederhana atau contoh agar mudah dipahami (reader atau sampler) mengenai pemikiran N.T. Wright. Hal ini tidak terlepas dari usulan Michael F. Bird supaya Wright menulis buku pengantar PB, setelah Wright menulis banyak buku mengenai PB. Kedua, buku ini bertujuan menjadi buku yang handal dan ramah. Handal karena ditulis untuk memahami kekristenan mula-mula dan ramah karena dilengkapi buku kerja, pembelajaran online, bahan video dan audio, serta kurikulum berbasis jemaat. Ketiga, buku ini berusaha menghindar dari beberapa problem umum yang biasa disajikan dalam buku pengantar PB. Bila dipandang perlu, hal mengenai itu telah ditulis dengan teliti, singkat dan mudah dicerna. Ketika menjelaskan masing-masing kitab dalam PB, buku ini memberikan pengantar singkat, diskusi persoalan penting dan kontekstual, garis besar kitab, komentar singkat, dan tips untuk aplikasi dan penyelidikan lebih lanjut.

Why the Content of Animal Thought Cannot Be Propositional
Authors: Aguilera Mariela
Published: June 2020

In “Steps toward Origins of Propositional Thought”, Burge claims that animals of different species are capable of making deductive inferences. According to Burge, that is why propositional thought is extended beyond the human mind to the minds of other kinds of creatures. But, as I argue here, the inferential capacities of animals do not guarantee a propositional structure. According to my argument, propositional content has predicates that might involve a quantificational structure. And the absence of this structure in animal thought might explain some of the differences with the propositional content of human thought.
Representaciones mentales, representaciones neuronales y el enigma de la intencionalidad
Authors: Barberis Sergio Daniel
Published: June 2020

En Representaciones mentales, Liza Skidelsky se propone poner de manifiesto la completa escisión que existe entre los fenómenos de la intencionalidad de los estados mentales y el contenido de las representaciones mentales. Por un lado, la autora defiende una elucidación internista del contenido de las representaciones mentales postuladas por la ciencia cognitiva. Por otro lado, nos propone concebir la intencionalidad como un fenómeno vinculado al lenguaje y a las prácticas comunicativas. Esta reformulación permitiría establecer los cimientos para un proyecto naturalista ampliado, según el cual las ciencias humanas y sociales ofrecerían el marco interdisciplinario adecuado para la explicación de la intencionalidad. En esta nota crítica, sostengo que el proyecto naturalista cientificista todavía cuenta con algunos recursos conceptuales, provenientes de la neurociencia cognitiva y de la neurociencia computacional, que pueden eventualmente saldar la brecha entre la representación y la intencionalidad.

ELECTROMAGNETIC INFLUENCE OF TRACTION NETWORKS 94 kV ON PIPELINES
Authors: Kryukov Aleksandr , Cherepanov Aleksandr
Published: June 2020

Steel pipelines for transporting oil and gas can run along the routes of AC main railways. As a result of the electromagnetic influence of traction networks on pipes having insulating coatings, voltages can be induced that are hazardous to personnel who operate the pipeline. The report addressed the issues of modeling the electromagnetic effects of a promising traction network of 94 kV on a steel pipeline with a diameter of 250 mm laid on the surface of the earth. Computer simulation showed that at a distance of 100 meters from the railway line to the pipeline, the maximum induced voltage reaches 100 V, which is more than one and a half times the permissible value. This factor must be taken into account when designing prospective traction power supply systems in the areas of their convergence with main pipelines

Published: June 2020

The article describes the results of growing essential-oil crops in photoculture using the hydroponic method, and the stages and the agrotechnical methods of conveyor production for spice-flavoring plants such as dill (Goldkrone cultivar), parsley (Fidelio cultivar) and basil (Lemona cultivar). Due to underdevelopment of agriculture in cold climate, the northern territories of Tyumen region receive plant products from the South of Russia. Therefore, effective technologies for plants growing are required in order to provide the northerners with fresh products all year round. Regarding growing plants in a closed system, we discovered that the best conditions in the light culture for ethereal crops are created by white LED lighting with 8000 lm luminous flux. Plants watering with the Ferticare fertiliser in combination with calcinitis and watering regime (15 minutes every 24 hours) allow to achieve high productivity and yield of the cultivated plants. For the conveyor cultivation of fennel, parsley and basil, it is necessary to maintain the optimal microclimate parameters: day-time ambient air temperature +23℃, the solution temperature +20℃, humidity - no less than 60%. The developed method gives 8-9 turnovers of spice-flavoring plants per year.

Published: June 2020

BACKGROUND: Burn wounds are inescapable life events especially in low income areas. Contamination of the burn wound site results in localized wound infection, hence the need for potent phytochemicals readily available for wound healing. The use of stem bark of Anthocleista djalonensis efficacy for burn wound has not been evaluated to the best of our knowledge.

AIM: The study is aimed at evaluating and comparing the wound healing potential of ointment base of leaves and Stem bark of Anthocleista djalonensis on burn wounds created on wistar albino rats.

METHODS: The leaves and Stem bark of Anthocleista djalonensis collected were extracted using 95%v/v methanol and phytochemical analysis conducted. Simple ointments of varying concentrations were formulated to screen for wound healing activity using the burn wound model on experimental rats grouped into six (n=4). Group 1 was treated with silver sulfadiazine cream (positive control), group 2 with ointment base (negative control), group 3 with 1% stem bark extract ointment, group 4 with 2% stem bark ointment, group 5 with 1% leave extract ointment, and group 6 with 2% leave extract ointment.  All animals were anesthetized before the creation of burn wounds. Measurement was taken on day zero and the wound was left untreated for 48 hours in order to allow bacterial colonization before daily treatment of the wound for 16 days.

RESULTS: The result of the phytochemical screening revealed that both extract of Anthocleista djalonensis contains flavonoids, tannins and saponins. On day 2, 1% stem bark, 2% stem bark and 1% leaf extract had 16%, 15%, and 10% wound contraction respectively which was higher than the 8.5% wound contraction of silver sulfadiazine. Also as the concentration of the extract increased, the wound healing effect also increased as seen by the percentage wound contraction on day 16 for all treatment.

 CONCLUSION: The findings of the study have shown that methanolic extracts of stem bark and leaf of Anthocleista djalonensis contained bioactive constituents which have burn wound healing activity. The stem bark extract showed better activity when compared with the leaf extract and also the positive control (silver sulfadiazine).

The Effects of Applying Betts’ Autonomous Learner Model on Iranian Students
Authors: Yarahmadzehi Nahid , Bazleh Elham
Published: June 2020

Classroom-based, teacher-directed language learning has been dominant in language teaching and learning for decades; however, the notion of autonomy is not novel to language teachers. Since the publication of Holec’s book, Autonomy and Foreign Language Learning (1981), autonomy in language learning has been a significant issue for discussion in relation to language learning practices and language teaching principles. Many ESL researchers have turned their attention to learner autonomy in classroom settings; however, learner autonomy in the Iranian context within self-access settings, classroom settings, and school curriculum has not been adequately addressed in the literature. To fill the research gap mentioned above, the present study aims to determine: 1. if Betts’s Autonomous Learner Model (Betts & Kercher, 1999) has any significant effect in terms of students’ self-directed learning readiness, and 2. if Betts’s Autonomous Learner Model has any significant effect on students’ English language proficiency. Adopting a quasi-experimental design, the study involved a comparison between the experimental and the control group. Two instruments were used: Gugliemino’s (1977) Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale (SDLRS); and standardized TOEFL test. 30 students (group A) were taught English based on a pedagogical model, which blended Betts’s ALM with classroom instruction and 30 students (group B) were taught through a traditional teacher-directed method. Finally, after six months of treatment, TOEFL test and SDLRS test were administered as the post-test and the results were analyzed by means of SPSS software. The results showed that ALM can work with Iranian students as evidenced by generally average performance on SDLRS and TOEFL post-tests.
Re-placing the Jewel in the Crown of Autonomy: A Revisiting of the ‘Self’ or ‘Selves’ in Self-access
Authors: Everhard Carol J.
Published: June 2020

While self-access resources enjoyed a wave of popularity in the 1980s and early 1990s and like the language labs of previous decades saw considerable financial investment in terms of space, materials, equipment and teacher commitment, with the coming of the Internet and other technologies, there seems to have been less rather than more concern for Self-access Language Learning (SALL).

This seeming decline of interest in SALL has, somewhat paradoxically, been accompanied by what seems to be a surge of interest in autonomy and examination of the many ways that autonomy can be promoted in language learning. Rather than clarifying the relationship between self-access and autonomy, it may have become more blurred and indistinct.

The author outlines four elements, involving strategic learning, which she believes to be essential in the promotion of autonomy and then briefly discusses the ‘self’ or ‘selves’, or internal resources which learners must ‘access’ if they are to succeed in an autonomous or self-access mode and improve their learning.

Viewed in these wider terms of strategically accessing both internal and external resources, self-access takes on a whole new significance and, indeed, can be returned to its rightful place as the ‘jewel’ in the ‘crown’ that is autonomy.

Four semesters of data were examined for the purpose of identifying trends in writing center usage and assessing how these have fulfilled the stated objectives of the center at the time it was founded. It was discovered that more than half of all users were either graduate students or members of faculty, suggesting a vital role for the center in assisting emerging and established scholars in bringing their work to publication. The data also revealed that the vast majority of writing center users came in search of assistance with editing, indicating that users regard the service as product-oriented.
The Learner as Researcher: Student Concordancing and Error Correction
Authors: Mull Jaqueline
Published: June 2020

The idea of language learners using a concordancer, to autonomously investigate vocabulary and structure in a target language was suggested over 30 years ago. Since then, some research has explored this idea further, but the potential benefit of concordancers in the hands of learners is still largely unexplored – especially with regards to structure. This study investigates what learners are able to accomplish when asked to investigate an English corpus with a concordancer in order to correct grammar errors in an essay. The study was conducted after only 30 minutes of training on a concordancer. Participants reactions to the software and to analyzing the target language autonomously are also shared. While participants’ reactions were mixed with regards to using a concordacer for error correction, all participants expressed an interest in using a concordancer during their writing process – something which was beyond the scope of this study – but which suggests a potential value for learner exposure to concordancers for autonomous language investigation.

Beyond the Classroom: The Role of Self-Guided Learning in Second-Language Listening and Speaking Practice
Authors: Davis Marion
Published: June 2020

There is a significant difference in most language instruction pro­­grams concerning the number of hours students spend practicing reading/writing skills versus listening/speaking skills. The primary cause for this is most likely due to the lack of class time that can be feasibly spent on meaningful conversation exchanges. Thus, the most logical answer is to have students practice outside the classroom. However, the transition from in-class learning to out-of-class practice is often not a very successful one. To address this deficiency and present possible options for creating successful learning environments beyond the classroom, this literature review offers an in-depth analysis of the role that guided learning plays in providing learning experiences for students beyond the classroom.
A Move Towards Autonomy: Individualized Education Plans for Effective Materials Use
Authors: Cranker Kenneth , Servais Nicole
Published: June 2020

Over the past twenty years, self-access learning centers have faced challenges related to accessibility of materials and the fostering of autonomy. There has also been progress towards meeting those challenges, such as Brigham Young University’s web-based database for searching SAC materials and linking curriculum to SAC materials (McMurry, Tanner, & Anderson, 2010). Following that example and developing it further, the University of Delaware developed a system called the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) that includes but goes beyond a Course Objectives Database (COD) similar to that of Brigham Young University. The COD alone was rather ineffective, but when the COD was combined with website resources and learner surveys modeled on Gardner and Miller (1999), the IEP emerged. A step-by-step guide to creating IEPs for use in other self-access environments is provided along with model forms. Finally, the results of informal surveys suggest that autonomous and goal-oriented learning might have been fostered by the use of IEPs.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and portal hypertension
Authors: Ryou Marvin , Stylopoulos Nicholas , Baffy Gyorgy
Published: June 2020

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a substantial and growing problem worldwide and has become the second most common indication for liver transplantation as it may progress to cirrhosis and develop complications from portal hypertension primarily caused by advanced fibrosis and erratic tissue remodeling. However, elevated portal venous pressure has also been detected in experimental models of fatty liver and in human NAFLD when fibrosis is far less advanced and cirrhosis is absent. Early increases in intrahepatic vascular resistance may contribute to the progression of liver disease. Specific pathophenotypes linked to the development of portal hypertension in NAFLD include hepatocellular lipid accumulation and ballooning injury, capillarization of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, enhanced contractility of hepatic stellate cells, activation of Kupffer cells and pro-inflammatory pathways, adhesion and entrapment of recruited leukocytes, microthrombosis, angiogenesis and perisinusoidal fibrosis. These pathological events are amplified in NAFLD by concomitant visceral obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and dysbiosis, promoting aberrant interactions with adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and gut microbiota. Measurement of the hepatic venous pressure gradient by retrograde insertion of a balloon-tipped central vein catheter is the current reference method for predicting outcomes of cirrhosis associated with clinically significant portal hypertension and guiding interventions. This invasive technique is rarely considered in the absence of cirrhosis where currently available clinical, imaging and laboratory correlates of portal hypertension may not reflect early changes in liver hemodynamics. Availability of less invasive but sufficiently sensitive methods for the assessment of portal venous pressure in NAFLD remains therefore an unmet need. Recent efforts to develop new biomarkers and endoscopy-based approaches such as endoscopic ultrasound-guided measurement of portal pressure gradient may help achieve this goal. In addition, cellular and molecular targets are being identified to guide emerging therapies in the prevention and management of portal hypertension.

In Russia a significant number of tanks are equipped with sub-layer fire extinguishing systems. Foam lines are used to feed the foam into the tank, and various foam generators are used to produce it. The article presents information on the problems of extinguishing fires in tanks using the classical technology of sub-layer fire extinguishing. The relevance of research on the use of a pulsed fire extinguishing method with a sub-layer feed of self-foaming gas-aerosol-filled foam is shown. For practical confirmation of the effectiveness of SGP “subsurface” way at the site of the Orenburg branch of FGBU VNIIPO EMERCOM of Russia there was carried out in-situ prior (without fuel load) and fire tests on the tank RVS-5000. In the preliminary test, the SGP feed was carried out from the «Uragan-7,5-200-300» and it was experimentally confirmed that it is possible to obtain a SGP when it is fed through a layer of water. The results of preliminary tests to study the ascent of the SGP through the liquid layer are presented: the time of ascent, the time of covering the mirror area, the multiplicity, and the loss of the SGP in the dry tube. Fire tests were carried out to determine the possibility of extinguishing AI-95 gasoline on the RVS-5000 mirror by sub-layer feeding of the SGP and the possibility of feeding the SGP through an extended dry pipe. When conducting fire tests, two UPAT-7500-M units were used to feed the SGP. Tests have shown high efficiency of extinguishing oil products with pulsed fire extinguishing method with the SGP supply, including long dry pipes. A set of factors that ensure high efficiency of the investigated method of fire extinguishing is presented. At present, an important issue is the adaptation of the SGP feed technology to the existing infrastructure of sub-layer fire extinguishing. This will make it possible to use this highly effective technology on existing tanks equipped with sub-layer fire extinguishing systems and increase the level of fire protection of tank farms.
