Fragment of an Oral History of Opposition to the 1986 Paramilitary Overthrow of Chief Leabua Jonathan's Government
Authors: Thabane Motlatsi
Published: March 2019

In January 1986, the Lesotho Paramilitary Force (LPF) overthrew the Basotho National Party (BNP) government of Chief Leabua Jonathan. In the aftermath of the coup d’état, Major General Justin Metsing Lekhanya led a military government with a civilian cabinet made up of individuals, some of whom, like Major General Lekhanya himself, were members of the BNP. The coup followed years of (a) general fear in the country as a result of acts of political violence and brutality perpetrated by the BNP Youth League against individuals and groups considered as anti - BNP government; and (b) the BNP government’s vociferous support of the struggle against apartheid in regional and international forums. Against that background, the overthrow of Chief Jonathan’s government was welcomed on the one hand by the people of Lesotho — happy to be rid of the BNP Youth League terror — and on the other hand by the South African government — happy to be rid of a fierce critic, Chief Jonathan, whose small country greatly depended on the South African economy. Indeed, the South African government was known to have encouraged the overthrow of Chief Jonathan’s government. This article presents oral testimonies about the events around, and opposition to, the coup. In this way, it seeks to draw attention to the experiences of those who could be said to have failed, as opposed to the stories of the victors, which tended to dominate writings on the 1986 coup.
A produção canavieira e o mito do progresso
Authors: Ferreira Lara Cristine Gomes , Araújo Sobrinho Fernando Luiz
Published: March 2019

O Brasil é um grande agroexportador de produtos vinculados ao agronegócio. Dentre as principais produções, destaca-se a cana-de-açúcar que apresentou nas últimas décadas expansão em área plantada e produção de etanol e açúcar, voltados para o mercado interno e também internacional. Alguns estados brasileiros destacam-se nesse processo, como São Paulo, Goiás e Mato Grosso, e estão entre os maiores produtores. Objetiva-se portanto, compreender o processo de expansão canaviera para o estado de Goiás, dando ênfase à microrregião Ceres, uma das principais regiões canavieiras desse estado. Pôde-se concluir com essa pesquisa, que na região estudada há sérios efeitos socioespaciais fruto da atividade canavieira, bem como conflitos latentes, entre o agronegócio e a agricultura familiar, muitas vezes legitimados pelo discurso do desenvolvimento, que em verdade é incompleto, e pelo mito do progresso atrelado ao discurso do agronegócio brasileiro.
Patrimônio-territorial e saber local
Authors: Rúbio-Schrage Rúbia
Published: March 2019

A história de luta pela criação do Projeto de Assentamento (PA) de Reforma Agrária Cafundão está vinculada à historicidade da concentração fundiária brasileira, que dá sentido de existência aos movimentos sociais pelo acesso à terra. Como também, descreve particularmente uma luta pela efetivação de uma política brasileira específica, de forma a reconhecer a posse desta mesma terra – que já era lugar de vida há gerações -, no âmbito de pressões imobiliárias e minerárias que a circundam. Singularmente, a luta do Cafundão retrata o reconhecimento político do saber local (torneamento do esteatito em produção artesanal) como principal vínculo (re)produtivo (n)às terras do Cafundão, o que garante a sobrevivência destas famílias e nutre a validação de suas narrativas de pertencimento. Neste artigo, se dialoga sobre a ativação do patrimônio-territorial por meio do saber local.
Territorio, memoria e imaginario del trabajo
Authors: Alvarado-Sizzo Ilia
Published: March 2019

La memoria y el imaginario referidos al territorio y al trabajo muestran dimensiones paradójicas de la vida ubicada de los sujetos. Así, este artículo tiene el objetivo de realizar un acercamiento a dos momentos en la región de Tierra Caliente de Michoacán (México): la Hacienda Nueva Italia –parte de un sistema latifundista– y el Ejido –forma colectiva de propiedad agraria– para comprender la relación del trabajador con esta área definidora de un territorio singular, a principios del del siglo XX. Metodológicamente, se trabaja con testimonios de habitantes de la actual Nueva Italia, para una reconstrucción de estas etapas con el análisis de los imaginarios y percepción pretérita del territorio, develados por los ex trabajadores informantes. Para ello, se articula la discusión sobre i) el espacio y el imaginario de la hacienda en la memoria local; ii) la cotidianeidad del trabajo en la hacienda y la vida privada de los trabajadores; iii) la lucha por la tierra, iv) la abundancia y la violencia en el ejido, y v) los Cusi y el General Cárdenas como alegoría de la hacienda y el ejido

É com muito entusiasmo que apresentamos o terceiro número da PatryTer – Revista Latinoamericana e Caribenha de Geografia e Humanidades. No mês de março de 2019, completamos o primeiro ano de existência. Os três primeiros números publicados revelam o grande desafio assumido pela equipe de edição e esboçam os enfrentamentos que temos pela frente, por diferentes motivos. Certamente, o maior desafio, nesses doze primeiros meses, foi o de iniciar e manter a revista sem apoio financeiro de qualquer agência nacional ou estrangeira. Todo o trabalho do periódico é realizado por integrantes do Grupo de Pesquisa CNPqCidades e Patrimonializacao na América Latina e Caribe, sediado no Departamento de Geografia da Universidade de Brasília e também coordenado pelo editor chefe da PatryTer. Lembro da colaboração incondicional de colegas de diferentes partes de nossa América, especialmente de Costa Rica, México, Cuba, Panamá, Argentina, Peru e Colômbia. Prova disso é que o presente número será apresentado no III Seminário Latinoamericano sobre Representacoes do Espaço, no Instituto de Geografía da UNAM, México, no mês de abril de 2019.
Patrimonio, territorio y memoria
Authors: Adames de Newbill Maria De Los Angeles
Published: March 2019

El Distrito Histórico de Panamá, como oficialmente fue designado por la UNESCO en 1997, ha tenido un proceso de transformaciones desde el punto de vista demográfico, espacial, social y económico. Estas transformaciones han dado como resultado en algunas ocasiones la salvaguarda del patrimonio material pero en otras, ha traído como consecuencia la desaparición del patrimonio inmaterial poniendo en peligro el tejido social del barrio y la pérdida de la memoria colectiva. Procesos como la revitalización, gentrificación y la globalización han contribuido en las transformaciones del barrio.Un aspecto que generalmente pasa desapercibido en la literatura es que el territorio y el patrimonio conllevan con si un simbolismo representado por el sentido de pertenencia y arraigo a estos dos elementos. Es ese sentido de pertenencia y apego al lugar lo que comparten los residentes de un barrio o una comunidad, y que es parte de la construcción de esa memoria colectiva y que pareciera traspasar los límites de tiempo y espacio. Este artículo, basado en mi trabajo de tesis doctoral que cubre el período de 1997 al 2008 con reflexiones de lo que ocurre hoy en el Casco Antiguo tiene como principal objetivo el análisis de estas transformaciones vistas desde el punto de vista de los residentes del área. En el mismo describo brevemente el contexto en el que tuvo origen el Casco Antiguo como parte del tejido urbano que conocemos como ciudad de Panamá. Hoy en día, el Distrito Histórico de Panamá, conocido fundamentalmente como el Casco Antiguo o San Felipe (refiriéndose al vecindario), continúa enfrentando desafíos similares a los estudiados y nuevos desafíos. Esto conlleva  a una necesidad de replantear políticas públicas referentes al patrimonio humano y cultural en un área tan importante para la memoria histórica de la nacionalidad panameña y para el turismo patrimonial.
A Literacy of Armed Love: Confrontation and Desire in Aesthetic and Critical Projects
Authors: Crampton Anne E.
Published: March 2019

The article argues that creative confrontations with damaging discourses as part of a critical literacy curriculum can be viewed as acts of love, for self and community. Using data from a multi-sited critical ethnography, the study considers the literacy productions of two focal students in diverse schools, a charter middle school and a large urban high school. Mediated discourse analysis of their work explores their aesthetic and critical literacy productions as refusals of oppressive discourses pressing against marginalized identities, and as expressions of desire for imagined, better realities. This research views such performances of multimodal creative resistance as an audacious literacy of desire, valuable as standards-meeting persuasive compositions, but also immeasurably valuable because of the emotional experience of the student producers, who were powerfully affected through the twin pleasures of resisting and imagining. This study illustrates how literacy projects might both inhabit and move forward Freire’s concept of armed love.
Re-Imagining Research Partnerships: Thinking through "Co-research" and Ethical Practice with Children and Youth
Authors: Collier Diane R.
Published: March 2019

Intentions to co-research and engage in participatory research pervade education and social science research with children and particularly research on engagement in digital spaces, with digital tools. Starting in the 1900s, there were many attempts to explicitly describe co-research methods and intentions in education but recently co-research has been used in a more taken-for granted way. Using snapshots from three research projects, I trouble my own attempts at co-research. Firstly, in a two-year ethnographic study, research positions were shifted by following the children’s lead and multimodal textmaking interests. Secondly, in an arts-informed classroom study of family photography and family stories, the ways in which the children understood the research process, and gave or withheld assent, influenced how they engaged as co-researchers. Finally, a larger comparative arts-informed study of youths’ digital practices in Hamilton is explored with an eye to how co-research evolved for the youth throughout the project. None of these projects were designed to engage with co-research in a comprehensive way. Yet, across these snapshots, a more nuanced understanding of co-research is envisioned; one that involves reflexive ethical practice and an emergent and attentive focus on consent.
Recognizing Young People’s Civic Engagement Practices: Rethinking Literacy Ontologies through Co-Production
Authors: Pahl Kate Heron
Published: March 2019

In this article I argue that it is important to find a language to describe youth engagement practices in informal settings. I argue that many young people do not have the resources to be heard on visible platforms, but their work, and meaning making practices might provide important information about their ideas and relay key concepts about how communicational practices are constructed. Drawing on embedded, ethnographic and artistically informed projects with young people in communities, I argue for a deeper kind of listening. Artistic forms such as poetry, visual art, dance and music are important modes of engagement. I draw on cultural practice theory together with theory from new literacy studies and media studies to explore four questions:

How do you craft what you know?

How do you speak/make what you feel?

How do you transform practice?

How do you articulate action?

I see these as components of the process of producing relationally oriented modes of address that others can also engage with. Taken together, they suggest a language of description for the mode that is civic engagement communicational practice, that is, oriented beyond individual experience but drawing from experience to make change happen in relational ways.
The Professional Competencies of Physical Education Teachers from North-Eastern Italy
Authors: Tul Miloš , Leskošek Bojan , Kovač Marjeta
Published: March 2019

This cross-sectional study was designed to evaluate the self-perceived professional competences of Italian physical education (PE) teachers. For this purpose, a self-administered questionnaire has been designed toexamine a broad scope of general and subject-specific competences. The participants, 484 Italian PE teachers from the north-eastern part of Italy, evaluated their professional competences on a four-level Likert scale. Factor analysis is used for the examination of the internal structure of the competence field. The results show that the self-perception of their competence profile was quite complex, consisting of 13 factors, which togetherexplain 51.1% of the total variance. Didactic approaches, which represent the first factor and explain 31.3% of the total variance, seem to be the most informative for their estimations of how effectively they can teach theirspecific subject. The teachers feel insufficiently competent in some general areas, such as the use of information and communications technology, communication in foreign language, scientific research work, initiative, and entrepreneurial spirit. They do not have sufficient abilities to bring to PE the recent sports activities in which teenagers currently participate in their free time. The outcomes of the present study may aid in the future updating of PE teacher education study programmes and the designing of a creative system of lifelong training programmes.
Estimating the function of oscillatory components in SSA-based forecasting model
Authors: Sulandari Winita , Subanar Subanar , Suhartono Suhartono , Utami Herni , Lee Muhammad Hisyam
Published: March 2019

The study of SSA-based forecasting model is always interesting due to its capability in modeling trend and multiple seasonal time series. The aim of this study is to propose an iterative ordinary least square (OLS) for estimating the oscillatory with time-varying amplitude model that usually found in SSA decomposition. We compare the results with those obtained by nonlinear least square based on Levenberg Marquardt (NLM) method. A simulation study based on the time series data which has a linear amplitude modulated sinusoid component is conducted to investigate the error of estimated parameters of the model obtained by the proposed method. A real data series was also considered for the application example. The results show that in terms of forecasting accuracy, the SSA-based model where the oscillatory components are obtained by iterative OLS is nearly the same with that is obtained by the NLM method.
Polyurethane urea membranes for membrane blood oxygenators: synthesis and gas permeation properties
Authors: Eusébio Tiago
Published: March 2019

A custom-made set-up was constructed and optimized for the measurement of the gas permeation properties of membranes at constant temperature. Integral asymmetric membranes and dense symmetric membranes of poly(ester urethane urea) were synthetized and characterized in terms of: i) structure by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and ii) gas permeation properties for N2, CO2 and O2 in the custom-made set-up. The membranes were synthesized by a modified version of the phase inversion technique where polyurethane and polycaprolactone-diol prepolymers react in a solvent mixture of dimethyl formamide and diethyl ether. The total polymer to solvent weight ratio, the solvent evaporation time and the polycaprolactone quantity were varied.
Narrowing the attainment gap between domestic and international students: use of a simulation and experiential learning in mixed-cohort strategic management teaching.
Authors: Kerridge Clive , Simpson Colin
Published: March 2019

In this article we present an Action Research project which attempted to address the significant performance gap between domestic and international students on an undergraduate Business Management course at a UK university business school. In designing a final year strategy module around a business simulation, we provided international students with opportunities for active engagement through collaborative tasks, which we hoped would lead to enhanced performance and deeper engagement with teamwork, leadership and negotiation skills when studying in mixed-nationality cohorts. Recent figures from Universities UK International (2017) indicate that the UK receives almost half a million international students each year, with about 30% of these doing some form of Business and Administrative Studies. China is by far the largest country of origin, followed by Malaysia, USA, India and Nigeria. Within the Business Management subjects, international students make up about 27% of the total at undergraduate level and 63% on postgraduate taught courses. As many of the international students are on ‘top-up’ courses, the proportion of international students in a final year BM programme can be considerably higher.
Hemangioma Infantil e Recomendações Terapêuticas Atuais
Authors: Silva Maria João , Palácios Jorge , Rebelo Mónica , Torres Erica
Published: March 2019

O hemangioma infantil é o tumor vascular benigno mais frequente na idade pediátrica, com uma incidência de 2% a 12% em recém-nascidos caucasianos, com predominância no sexo feminino. A International Society for The Study of Vascular Anomalies dividiu as anomalias vasculares em duas categorias: tumores vasculares e malformações vasculares, integrando-se o hemangioma infantil nos tumores vasculares benignos. A evolução clínica é característica, compreendendo uma fase proliferativa e uma fase de involução. O diagnóstico é habitualmente clínico, mas pode haver necessidade de recorrer a métodos auxiliares de diagnóstico. A maioria dos hemangiomas infantis tem evolução favorável no sentido da resolução espontânea, mas nalguns casos pode haver complicações locais ou sistémicas, com necessidade de intervenção terapêutica por situações de risco vital, funcional ou estético. Atualmente, o propranolol oral é o tratamento de escolha para o hemangioma infantil e o único aprovado para esta indicação, devendo ser administrado o mais precocemente possível para uma maior eficácia e um menor número de complicações. Outras opções terapêuticas podem ser equacionadas em segunda linha: corticoides orais, tópicos ou intralesionais, betabloqueantes tópicos, laser ou cirurgia.
Ictioses Congénitas: Série de 11 Casos da Consulta Multidisciplinar de Dermatologia Pediátrica, Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de Lisboa Central
Authors: Borges Ana Sofia , Cordeiro A. , Brasileiro Ana , Paiva Lopes Maria João
Published: March 2019

Introdução: As ictioses são um grupo heterogéneo de distúrbios genéticos hereditários que ocorrem devido a um defeito da queratinização e consequente disrupção da função de barreira cutânea. Embora raras, elas apresentam-se como um desafio clínico, em particular face ao correto diagnóstico e opções terapêuticas. Este estudo teve como objectivo principal caracterizar clinica e genotipicamente os casos de ictioses congénitas não sindrómicas e avaliar possível relação genótipo-fenótipo face aos dados mais recentes na literatura.Métodos: Realizámos um estudo retrospetivo onde foram incluídos todos os casos com diagnóstico clinico e confirmação genética de ictioses congénitas não sindrómicas da Consulta Multidisciplinar de Dermatologia Pediátrica do Hospital D. Estefânia do Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de Lisboa Central.Resultados: Foi analisado um total de 11 doentes com idades compreendidas entre os 20 meses e os 16 anos de idade. Quatro tinham a forma recessiva ligada ao X com mutação no gene da esteróide-sulfatase sendo que três deles manifestaram-se tipicamente pelo aparecimento ao nascimento de descamação poligonal cinza-acastanhada de distribuição generalizada e um com manifestações mais ligeiras compatíveis de xerose e eczema. Os restantes sete doentes tinham uma forma autossómica recessiva, quatro deles com mutação no gene TGM1, dois no ALOX12B e um no CYP4F22. Relativamente à evolução e prognóstico, verificou-se que o mesmo gene mutado foi responsável por um amplo espectro de manifestações clínicas, confirmando a dificuldade em estabelecer uma relação genótipo-fenótipo para estes doentes.Conclusão: Os avanços na área da genética têm sido fundamentais para a melhor compressão da fisiopatologia e evolução clínica das ictioses congénitas. No entanto, dado o amplo espectro fenotípico associado a uma mutação no mesmo gene, o estabelecimento de uma relação genótipo-fenótipo que possibilitaria um correto prognóstico, nem sempre é possível. Embora raras, os autores salientam a importância de mais estudos de modo a melhorar a qualidade de vida dos doentes com estas genodermatoses.

Published: March 2019

As lesões auto-infligidas compreendem modificações cutâneas induzidas por um desvio do comportamento e demandam o envolvimento de diferentes profissionais da saúde. São mais comuns entre as mulheres de meia idade. Relata-se o caso clínico de um homem de 42 anos com diagnóstico de lesão ulcerada nos lábios superior e inferior, secundária a comportamento obsessivo-compulsivo. Os achados histopatológicos foram inespecíficos e os resultados de exames laboratoriais realizados não apresentaram alterações. Optou-se pelo acompanhamento conjunto entre a Psiquiatria e a Dermatologia, com seguimento de sessões de psicoterapia, mas o paciente acabou por abandonar o tratamento. Ressalta-se a importância do conhecimento das psicodermatoses pelo dermatologista, visando o diagnóstico e a terapêutica precoces, o que permitirá a prevenção de lesões destrutivas e mutiladoras.

Correcting the infrared images of soft biological tissues
Authors: Ivanov A. P.
Published: March 2019

Non-invasive (remote) thermographic methods based on IR images are being actively implemented. Using the calculation results of the temperature increment that occurs when a pathological source exists in the person’s skin, a number of ways of solving “inverse problems” are proposed. These include the determination of the depth of the thermal source by measuring the mono or polychrome increment of the normalized brightness of the tissue surface at one point; the source depth and heat transfer parameter by measuring the poly or monochrome one of the normalized brightness (or temperature) at two points; the thermal power of the source by measuring the increment of absolute brightness or temperature at one point; the depth of the thermal source and its size in the near-surface layer by measuring the increment of the normalized brightness at two points. In order to solve these problems, the thermophysical and optical properties of the soft tissues of the biological organism are indicated. Analytical solutions are given for describing the temperature and the glow that arises under its influence from the sources of cylindrical and spherical shape.
Solvability and construction of solution to the de la Vallee – Poussin problem for the second-order matrix Lyapunov equation with a parameter
Authors: Kashpar A. I. , Laptinskiy V. N.
Published: March 2019

The paper considers the issues of constructive analysis of the de la Vallee – Poussin boundary-value problem for the second-order linear matrix differential Lyapunov equation with a parameter and variable coefficients. The initial problem is reduced to an equivalent integral problem, and to study its solvability a modification of the generalized contraction mapping principle is used. A connection between the approach used and the Green’s function method is established. The coefficient sufficient conditions for the unique solvability of this problem are obtained. Using the Lyapunov – Poincaré small parameter method, an algorithm for constructing a solution has been developed. The convergence and the rate of convergence of this algorithm have been investigated, and a constructive estimation of the region of solution localization is given. To illustrate the application of the results obtained, the linear problem of steady heat conduction for a cylindrical wall, as well as a two-dimensional matrix model problem is considered. With the help of the developed general algorithm, analytical approximate solutions of these problems have been constructed and on the basis of their exact solutions a comparative numerical analysis has been carried out.
HARMONIZATION OF ECONOMIC AND LEGAL MECHANISMS FOR DEEPENING EU-UKRAINIAN RELATIONS
Authors: Predmestnikov Oleh , Gumenyuk Vitaliy
Published: March 2019

The policy of Ukraine for the establishment and development of relations with the European Union began in 1993, was carried out all the years of Ukraine’s existence, and received intensive deepening with the beginning of the formation of an international treaty – the Association Agreement, which includes a list of legal, social, economic, and technical regulations, and Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA), in 2014 and its final signing in 2017. Political and economic objectives of the Agreement are of fundamental importance to the future of both Ukraine and the whole European region. The political goal is to implement European standards on the territory of Ukraine. This implies the introduction of fundamental European values, namely democracy, rule of law, respect for human rights and the standards of the European security system. The Agreement does not foresee membership in the European Union, however, does not exclude such an opportunity in the future. The economic goal is to help to modernize the Ukrainian economy by expanding trade volumes with the EU and other countries, as well as reforming economic regulation mechanisms in line with the best European practices. Subject to the improvement of the business climate, Ukraine will become attractive for foreign and domestic investment for further production for export to the EU and other markets of the world. Harmonization of standards and European regulations has become a much more important process than the fulfilment of strictly technical requirements and underlies the introduction of effective governance without corruption. In the process of harmonization of interaction, an adaptive institutional mechanism was formed (the highest level – annual Summits; the key coordinator is the Association Council, consisting of members of the Council of the European Union and members of the European Commission, and members of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine; the level of operational coordination – the Association Parliamentary Committee, which includes members of the European Parliament, representatives of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, and the Civil Society Platform; in order to coordinate processes on the territory of Ukraine, the Ukrainian government has introduced a few supervisory committees and commissions). The harmonization of the economic aspect of the mechanism has been determined in solving issues of openness of markets for duty-free import from Ukraine in April 2014, obtaining a visa-free regime with the EU, abolishing export-import tariffs, implementing European technical standards for food safety, phytosanitary norms, competition policy, service provision, and public procurement policy. The issues of further deepening of relations include a review of the terms for the introduction of regulations and legislative provisions before their actual implementation, stabilization of financial and economic processes in the country, and further development of democratic values and social institutions.

Authors: Saadah Wachidatus
Published: March 2019

Dewasa ini arah pembangunan perikanan telah berubah dari perikanan tangkap ke perikanan budidaya. Perubahan trend tersebut disebabkan karena manusia semakin memahami bahwa sumber daya ikan yang menjadi target penangkapan semakin berkurang (Djoni Irianto dan Wiwik Heny Winarsih, 2001). Perkembangan tehnologi bandeng sangat lambat jika dibanding udang, hasilnya sering rugi. Sesuai dengan perkembangan zaman, budidaya udang vannamei diharapkan bisa menaikkan produksi,, menaikkan pendapatan bahkan meningkatkan kelayakan hidup masyarakat. Penulis melakukan penelitian di Desa Sidokumpul Kecamatan Lamongan Kabupaten Lamongan. Penelitian ditujukan untuk mengetahui kelayakan usaha budidaya udang vannamei dan ikan bandeng dan menguntungkan untuk diusahakan. Penelitian ini menggunakan studi kasus. Data yang langsung dari sumbernya dengan cara observasi 1 partisipasi aktif dan wawancara dan data sekunder ialah data yang diperoleh tak langsung misalnya buku literatur, monografi desa dan lain-lain. Analisa yang digunakan adalah Imbang Penerimaan atau R/C Ratio, Analisa Titik Impas dan Rentabilitas. Sampel yang diambil 15 orang petani tambak. Ternyata disimpulkan bahwa usaha budidaya udang vannamei dan ikan bandeng layak dan menguntungkan untuk diusahakan dengan hasil sebagai berikut : R/C Ratio = 1,7, Rentabilitas rata-rata 69,96%, dan BEP (Analisa Titik Impas) = 2,868427

In no-television and permanent-vacation, we explore two programs that would fit into a wider User-Defined Web : a term chosen and adopted here in opposition to the however well-meant, but ultimately false, established concepts of a "user-centered" or "user-centric" Web - in so far as they are dependent on the good will of those who have control over the Web and Internet, their natures, developments and directions, in particular those who have an above-average influence on them. We discuss Systems modification generally : programs that change the way we think of technology and society, by often modifying both.

A Stochastic Homogenized Peridynamic Model for Intraply Fracture in Fiber-Reinforced Composites
Authors: Mehrmashhadi Javad , Chen Ziguang , Zhao Jiangming , Bobaru Florin
Published: March 2019

The quasi-static transverse fracture behavior in unidirectional fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) is investigated using a new intermediately-homogenized peridynamic (IH-PD) model and a fully homogenized peridynamic (FH-PD) model. The novelty in the IH-PD model here is accounting for the topology of the fiber-phase in the transverse sample loading via a calibration to the Halpin-Tsai model. Both models can capture well the measured load-displacement behavior observed experimentally for intraply fracture, without the need for an explicit representation of microstructure geometry of the FRC. The IH-PD model, however, is more accurate and produces crack path tortuosity as well as a non-monotonic load-crack-opening softening curve, similar to what is observed experimentally. These benefits come from the preservation of some micro-scale heterogeneity, stochastically generated in the IH-PD model to match the composite’s fiber volume fraction, while its computational cost is equivalent to that of an FH-PD model. We also present a three-point bending transverse loading case in which the two models lead to dramatically different failure modes: the FH-PD model shows that failure always starts from the off-center pre-notch, while the IH-PD model, when the pre-notch is sufficiently off-center, finds that the composite fails from the center of the sample, not from the pre-notch. Experiments that can confirm these findings are sought.

Oleh itu, kajian ini akan meninjau perspektif dan sikap individu terhadap dialek mereka. Di samping itu, kajian ini turut melihat sebab pemilihan dialek mengikut situasi dibantu dengan Teori Pemilihan Bahasa (1970) dan Teori Akomodasi Pertuturan (1973). Titik penelitian kajian ini adalah di Kota Samarahan, Sarawak (Desa Ilmu, Taman Samarindah dan Universiti Malaysia Sarawak). Satu pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif telah dijalankan terhadap 30 orang responden yang telah dibahagikan kepada tiga kumpulan umur iaitu lingkungan 20 tahun ke bawah (kumpulan A), kumpulan umur dalam lingkungan 21-25 tahun (kumpulan B) dan kumpulan umur lingkungan 26 tahun ke atas (kumpulan C). Pembahagian peringkat umur mengikut kumpulan ini bertujuan untuk melihat variasi pemilihan dialek individu terbabit. Dapat dirumuskan bahawa, hubungan individu dan pemilihan dialek mereka disebabkan oleh sikap dan perasaan individu dalam mengadaptasikan perbualan harian mereka mengikut situasi.Kata kunci—individu; dialek; sikap; perasaan; adaptasiAbstract. Dialects can be referred to as diversity of language formats that can be distinguished through their pronunciation and grammar. Therefore, this study will examine individual perspectives and attitudes towards their dialect. In addition, this study also looked at why dialect selection was based on the situation assisted with the Language Choice Theory (1970) and Speech Accommodation Theory (1973). The research point of this study was in Samarahan, Sarawak (Desa Ilmu, Taman Samarindah and Universiti Malaysia Sarawak). A qualitative and quantitative approach was carried out on 30 respondents who were divided into three age groups ie 20 years and below (group A), age group within 21-25 years (group B) and age group 26 years and above (group C). The aggregation of ages according to this group aims to see the variation of individual dialect selection. It can be concluded that, individual relationships and their dialect selection are caused by individual attitudes and feelings in adapting their daily conversation to the situation.Keywords— individual; dialect; attitude; feeling; adaptation

A Negative Effect of a Contractive Pose is not Evidence for the Positive Effect of an Expansive Pose: Comment on Cuddy, Schultz, and Fosse (2018)
Authors: Crede Marcus
Published: March 2019

Cuddy, Schultz and Fosse (2018) present the results of p-curve analyses that are interpreted as providing "clear evidential value for power posing effects”. This commentary highlights that the vast majority of the studies included in the p-curve analyses were not designed in a way that could speak to the efficacy of power poses relative to a normal or neutral pose. Further, I discuss how the few studies that were designed to shed light on this issue indicate that any overall effect of physical pose on feelings of power, emotions, affect, and self-evaluations is almost entirely due to the negative effect of a contractive pose and not any positive effect of expansive power poses.

Introduction: Facial expressions of pain serve an essential social function by communicating suffering and soliciting aid. Accurate visual perception of painful expressions is critical, since the misperception of pain signals can have serious clinical and social consequences. Therefore, it is essential that researchers have access to high-quality, diverse databases of painful expressions to better understand accuracy and bias in pain perception. Objectives: This paper describes the development of a large-scale face stimulus database focusing on expressions of pain.Methods: We collected and normed a database of images of models posing painful facial expressions. We also characterized these stimuli in terms of the presence of a series of pain-relevant facial action units. In addition to our primary database of posed expressions, we provide a separate database of computer-rendered expressions of pain that may be applied to any neutral face photograph. Results: The resulting database comprises 229 unique (and now publicly available) painful expressions. To our knowledge, there are no existing databases of this size, quality, or diversity in terms of race, gender, and expression intensity. We provide evidence for the reliability of expressions and evaluations of pain within these stimuli, as well as a full characterization of this set along dimensions relevant to pain like perceived status, strength, and dominance. Moreover, our second database complements the primary set in terms of experimental control and precision. Conclusion: These stimuli will facilitate reproducible research in both experimental and clinical domains into the mechanisms supporting accuracy and bias in pain perception and care.
