Authors: Majumder Sacchidanand , Biswas Soma Chowdhury
Published: November 2018

The objective of this study was to explore the influences of the health and socio-economic factors associated with the poverty level of households in Bangladesh, through an analysis of data from the Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) 2010 conducted by Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS). A total of all 12,240 households was considered in this study. CBN method was applied for estimating poverty of the household. A logistic regression analysis was used to identify the main factors that influence the household’s poverty. The results showed that the probability of the household being poor was higher when the household’s head suffered from various chronic diseases like chronic fever, injuries/disability, eczema, leprosy, and asthma/breathing trouble as compared to the household whose head didn’t suffer from any chronic diseases. From the analysis, it was also found that when a large number within household suffered from any chronic disease, the probability of the household being poor was increased. The household that had no access to health care was poorer than the household that had access to health care. The results also showed that with increased investment in health, the probability of the household being poor was decreased. The results showed that rural households were poorer than urban households. Monthly income, land ownership, construction materials of walls and roofs, types of the latrine, source of drinking water, household size; age, sex, and employment status of the household’s head all had a significant impact on the poverty level of the household.

Published: November 2018

Latex harvesting is the most costly activity in natural rubber production and the shortage of available skill and unstable latex harvester are the main factor affecting in Rubber cultivation and its lead to increase cost of production. Low frequency system (LFT) with the hormonal stimulation is a solution to solve this problem that minimize the cost of latex harvesting. Therefore, a study was conducted for nine years on production systems that minimize the cost of latex harvesting in southwestern Côte d'Ivoire with clones IRCA 130, GT 1 and PB 217 of Hevea brasiliensis. These production systems differ from each other by an increase in tapping frequency, in comparison with the standard tapping (d3) on the above clones in southwestern Côte d'Ivoire. The results indicated that production systems that minimize the cost of latex harvesting admittedly resulted in losses of rubber yield per hectare per year from 1 to 37%, but improved the yield per tree per tapping as well as the productivity of the tapper from 20 to 46%, in year. Moreover, these systems contributed to the improvement of the vegetative growth of trees and kept the rate of dry trees in low level (less than 7%). Furthermore, these systems also helped to reduce the cost of tapping labor from 1 to 50%, as well as operating costs from 2 to 47%, in comparison with European Scientific Journal October 2018 edition Vol.14, No.30 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 191 the standard tapping (d3). Finally, in the context of a shortage of tapping labor, these systems help increase the farmer’s profit margin from 26% to 113%, as well as the tapper’s income from 26% to 89%. Therefore, it appears that the use of low frequency harvesting system with the appropriate stimulants appears as a solution to minimize latex harvesting cost and unavailability of harvesters in rubber cultivation.

Published: November 2018

This paper focuses on the current situation of the availability and use of forestry waste generated in sawmills of the Ecuadorian interandina zone 3. It specifically highlights information about different types of waste, its volume, sales price, and final location. Through the stratification of the sample, 38, 25 and 19 surveys were carried out with loggers from the cantons of Riobamba, Ambato, and Latacunga with a level of reliability of 95%. It was stated that the most common waste are sawdust, shavings, and wood scrap. The monthly production average is 2.92, 1.64, and 2.74 tons of waste in the first village. 31.6%, 40%, and 31.6% of sawmills in Riobamba, Ambato and Latacunga sells from 6.1-8, 4.1-6, and 8.1-10 dollars per ton respectively. There was highly significant differences in the sale prices (p<0, 0001) of the by product in the sawmills of the three villages. The evidence in Ambato is different and in contrast with sawmills in Riobamba and Latacunga which shows a similar behavior in selling forestry waste periodically in the stages of primary and secondary transformation. This, therefore, is in a bid to take advantage of the opportunities for the development of new enterprises.

Published: November 2018

An ethnobotanical survey was carried out in the District of Yamoussoukro (Central Côte d’Ivoire) in order to evaluate the biocontrol potential against fungal plant pathogens, of Euphorbiaceous plants used as medicines by the native population. Twelve (12) species were collected. The antifungal activity was assessed using the two-fold dilution method on PDA medium with ethanolic and aqueous extract derived from leaves of six plants. Results pointed out that only 70% ethanolic extracts from Alchornea cordifolia (EE13) possess fungicidal properties on both Fusarium sp. and Phytophthora sp. The antifungal activities are more effective with ethanolic extracts than aqueous extracts. With a minimal inhibitory concentration MIC = 25±0.0 mg/ml, a minimal concentration for 50% of inhibition IC50 = 10±0.05 mg/ml and a minimal fungicide concentration MFC = 200±0.0 mg/ml Fusarium sp. appears to be the most sensitive. Phytophthora sp. is less sensitive with a MIC = 50±0.0 mg/ml, an IC50 = 12±0.05 mg/ml and a MFC = 200±0.0 mg/ml. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of seven major groups of compounds among which saponins and catechin are the most abundant in aqueous extracts. Polyphenols, flavonoids, polyterpenes and sterols as well as tannins are present in both alcoholic and aqueous extracts of Alchornea cordifolia. These compounds could justify its antifungal activity and traditional use.

Published: November 2018

Most of existing power grids are designed neither by latest technologies nor to comply with quickly climate changes, the new intelligent power grids are urgently needed and will soon be applied to the power markets. In the smart grid, the large-scale renewable energy contribution tends to expand vastly. This paper is focusing on the wind energy. Wind’s inherent intermittency and unpredictability make its increased penetration into the power system grids an area requiring significant analysis and research. Notwithstanding, because of the changeable nature of the wind energy, this may lead to a high oscillation on the power system frequency. From another aspect, A lot of scientific research is searching for smart solutions and tools to support and enhance the integration of the renewable energy resources into the electrical grids without additional costs for the power system, so the world scientific research is directed to exploit the plugin hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) which are considered as the sustainable and environmental friendly transportation system in the next period around the world. PHEVs are considered as the scattered batteries, which will enhance the integrating of the renewable energy resources into the electrical power system. In this paper, the performance of two-area interconnected power system with high wind energy penetration is analyzed in the presence of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicles when using Ziegler and Nicholas method (Nguyen & Mitra, 2018).

The knowledge of the structural and floristic variability of forest is the principal tool which makes it possible to know the floristic composition of forest in an area. This paper focuses on analyzing the structural and floristic variability between compounds of forest on firm earth in chieftainship Bahema-boga in Ituri Province in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The study provides knowledge and education to those responsible for environmental protection and those who are concerned with the forest based on the floristic potential for the conservation and the sustainable management of the forests. The structure and the floristic composition vary from one forest to another. The quantity of carbon stoke also vary due to the function of structures and floristic composition of forests. The forests play an important role in the reduction of CO2. The inventories of trees whose diameter is ≥ 10 cm have allowed us to collect the data to analyze this structural and floristic variability in a sample of 3 ha (plots) of forests in firm earth. The results obtained indicate that 812 inventoried individuals (trees) are extended in 16 species, 11 kinds, and 8 famillies. The total earth surface of inventoried individuals is 32,06 m2 /ha. The species of Cynometra sessiliflora dominated those forests with 408 individuals (50,25%). The diametric class of the most  elevated inventoried plants are located between 10-20cm (63,17%). The family of the Fabaceae is better represented in those forests (73,65%).

Published: November 2018

In this study, the mechanical properties of the composites made of areca fibers as reinforcing agent with polyester matrix were evaluated. Both untreated and treated (mercerized) fibers were used to fabricate composites and the mechanical properties such as tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus (TM), flexural strength (FS), flexural modulus (FM) and impact strength (IS) of the composites were examined. Composites were manufactured by means of hand lay-up technique with varying fiber content (5 and 10%). Mechanical properties of plywood were also tested and compared with the composites. It was found that areca fiber composites showed significant improved mechanical properties than plywood. Among the composite materials 10% fiber loading presented higher mechanical properties than 5% fiber content and the treated fiber composites exhibited enhanced mechanical properties than the untreated fiber composites due to strong interfacial bonding between fiber and matrix. In addition, water uptake test was performed and specifies that areca composites absorbed very much lower amount of water than that of plywood. The morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Deporte y guerra en la democracia ateniense = Sport and War in Athenian Democracy
Authors: Pritchard David M.
Published: November 2018

Resumen: Este artículo analiza la cuestión descuidada del deporte de la élite en la Atenas clásica. La democracia puede haber abierto la política a todos los ciudadanos, pero no tuvo impacto en la participación deportiva. Los atletas atenienses siguieron siendo extraídos de la élite. De este modo, resulta sorprendente que ciudadanos no pertenecientes a la élite juzgaran que el deporte era algo muy positivo y creasen un programa de festivales deportivos locales sin rival en los que gastaron una suma asombrosa. También escudaron a los atletas de la crítica pública que de otra manera era normalmente dirigida hacia la élite y sus exclusivos pasatiempos. El trabajo desde las ciencias sociales sugiere que la explicación a este problema puede ser hallada en la cercana relación que los atenienses que no pertenecían a la élite percibían entre las competiciones deportivas y su propia forma de librar la guerra. La sorprendente conclusión del artículo es que fue la apertura de la guerra a los ciudadanos no pertenecientes a la élite con la democracia lo que legitimó el deporte de élite.Abstract: This article addresses the neglected problem of elite sport in classical Athens. Democracy may have opened up politics to every citizen but it had no impact on sporting participation. Athenian sportsmen continued to be drawn from the elite. Thus it comes as a surprise that non-elite citizens judged sport to be a very good thing and created an unrivalled program of local sporting festivals on which they spent a staggering sum. They also shielded sportsmen from the public criticism that was otherwise normally directed towards the elite and its exclusive pastimes. The work of social scientists suggests that the explanation of this problem can be found in the close relationship that non-elite Athenians perceived between sporting contests and their own waging of war. The article’s striking conclusion is that it was the democracy’s opening up of war to non-elite citizens that legitimised elite sport.Palabras clave: deporte, guerra, democracia, Atenas, élite.Key words: sport, war, democracy, Athens, elite.
La reorganización de las Panateneas en el s.VI a.C.: el agon gymnicus y los hoplitas = The reorganization of the Panathenaic games in the 6th century BC: the agon gymnicus and the Hoplites
Authors: Valdés Guía Miriam
Published: November 2018

Resumen: En este artículo nos adentramos en la reorganización de las Panateneas desde el 566 hasta finales del s.VI, centrándonos especialmente en algunas pruebas atléticas de carácter “militar”, así como en el imaginario de la fiesta en relación con los gigantes y Atenea Promachos de las ánforas panatenaicas. La impronta “guerrera” de la fiesta puede ponerse en relación, desde nuestra perspectiva, con un contexto social de desarrollo de un grupo de ciudadanos con capacidad para costearse el armamento (los zeugitai solonianos) que participan de la fiesta y se sienten representados ideológicamente y posiblemente también en la práctica de las competiciones; en este sentido analizaremos la base social de la transferencia de unos determinados valores aristocráticos a una parte del demos y la construcción cultural de este colectivo a través de las Panateneas en el contexto histórico de la Atenas del s.VI.Abstract: In this article we study the reorganization of the Panathenaia from 566 until the end of the Sixth century BC, focusing especially on some athletic contests with military character, as well as exploring the imaginary of the festival in relation to the giants and the Athena Promachos of Panatenaic amphoras. The "warrior" stamp of the festival can be related, from our perspective, with a social context of development of a group of citizens who could afford the armament (the solonian zeugitai); they participate in the feast and feel represented ideologically in it and possibly also in the practice of the games. In this sense we will analyze the social basis of the transfer of certain aristocratic values to a part of the demos and the cultural construction of this collective through the panathenaic celebration in the historical context of Sixth Century Athens.Palabras clave: hoplitodromos, danza pírrica, carrera de antorchas, apobates, gigantomaquia, hoplitas.Key words: hoplitodromos, pyrrhic danza, torch race, apobates, gigantomachy, hoplites.

Why were adult women excluded from the Olympic Games? = ¿Por qué las mujeres adultas estaban excluidas de los Juegos Olímpicos?
Authors: Patay-Horváth András
Published: November 2018

Abstract: It is a well-known fact that adult women were banned from attending the Olympic Games and that those who violated this rule were supposed to be executed. It is generally assumed and indeed very likely that the exclusion can be seen as a remnant of an age-old religious taboo with a terrifying and deterring effect. In ancient Greece, it is only the cult of Ephesian Artemis in which a similar restriction is applied to women, but similar rules are found all over the world and concern hunters and their wives. In addition, written sources attest that the vicinity of the sanctuary was regarded as a superb hunting ground and Early Iron Age finds also suggest that initially, hunting was the main attraction of the sanctuary. It is therefore argued that the exclusion of married women at Olympia derived from hunting ceremonies and from the related cult of Artemis.Resumen: Es un hecho bien conocido que las mujeres adultas estaban excluidas de poder asistir a los Juegos Olímpicos y que aquéllas que violasen esta regla supuestamente serían ejecutadas. Se asume generalmente y es sin duda muy probable que la exclusión pueda ser vista como un remanente de un tabú religioso secular con un efecto de aterrorizar y disuadir. En la antigua Grecia, solamente en el culto de Artemisa Efesia se aplicaba una restricción similar a las mujeres, pero se encuentran reglas similares por todo el mundo y conciernen a los cazadores a sus mujeres. Además, las fuentes escritas dan fe de que la cercanía del santuario se veía como un campo de caza soberbio, y los hallazgos de la Edad de Hierro temprana también sugieren que inicialmente, la caza era la principal atracción del santuario. Se argumenta, así pues, que la exclusión de las mujeres casadas en Olimpia derivaba de las ceremonias de caza y del culto relacionado de Artemisa.Key words: Women, banning, Olympic Games, religion, rules.Palabras clave: Mujeres, prohibición, Juegos Olímpicos, religión, reglas.
Some Aspects of Sport in Ritual and Religion in Ancient Egypt = Algunos aspectos del deporte en el ritual y en la religión en el antiguo Egipto
Authors: Decker Wolfgang
Published: November 2018

Resumen: El ritual y la religión están conectados al deporte del Faraón. Durante el festival del jubileo, el rey que iba envejeciendo debía demostrar su aptitud en un ritual de carreta que también le daba nuevos poderes. En el Reino Nuevo, el Faraón es comparado con Montu, el dios de la guerra, cuando practica deporte, una calificación para asumir el título de gobernante. Inscrito en la estela de Amenofis II en la Esfinge, el texto egipcio más largo que describe el deporte, se menciona a los dioses Montu (en seis ocasiones), Amón (en cinco) y Atón (en tres), mientras que Astarté, Geb, Horus, Maat, Ra, Reshef y Seth sólo son mencionados una vez cada uno. Más aún, puede resultar sorprendente descubrir que el derecho a gobernar entre los dioses era disputado dos veces por medio de la competición deportiva, como es el caso en el relato mitológico titulado “El conflicto de Horus y Seth”.Abstract: Ritual and religion are connected to the sport of Pharaoh. During the jubilee festival, the ageing king had to demonstrate his fitness in a running ritual which also gave him new powers. In the New Kingdom, Pharaoh is compared with Month, the god of war, when practicing sport, a qualification for assuming the mantle of ruler. Enscribed on the Sphinx-stela of Amenophis II, the longest Egyptian text depicting sport, the gods Month (six times), Amun (five times) and Atum (three times) are mentioned, whereas Astarte, Geb, Horus, Maat, Ra, Reshef and Seth are only mentioned once each. Further, it may be surprising to discover that the right to rule among the gods was disputed twice by means of sporting competition, as is the case in the mythological story entitled “The Conflict of Horus and Seth”.Palabras clave: ritual, religión, deporte, Reino Nuevo, faraón, Egipto, dioses.Key words: ritual, religion, sport, New Kingdom, Pharaoh, Egypt, gods.
