De hóspedes a sujeitos políticos:
Authors: Velasco Suzana
Published: December 2019

This article analises how the field of protests of applicants for refuge at the Oranienplatz, in Berlim, from 2012 to 2014, challenged the logic of domopolitic, the “govern of the house” which, in excluding the foreigner, regulate and contain them in a space and present time of waiting, sustains the political belonging of the nation-State. By abandoning the dorms in which they were regulated by the State, traversing the country and occupying a square in the center of the german capital, they rejected the idea of hospitality in favor of a demand for justice. This movement supported itself through the visibility of the political bodies, even if not as a demand for spatial fixation, but of mobility, the possibility of not-being always watched. For that, it was fundamental the relation with the city of Berlin, in a neighborhood with a history of immigration and political agitation.

Published: December 2019

Understanding the favelas as alternative forms of resistance to the capitalist process of dwelling, our goal with this article is to comprehend and analise in which way this spaces can be seen as context and agent of a collective construction of another city, coexisting and at the same time resisting the hegemonic model of a city. Our analisis is made through the lenses of the insurgent architect and urbanist and that seeks to approach in a deeply critic form how this professional could participate in the struggle for the production and transformation of urban spaces un-hegemonic. In our debate, we work with the favela Indiana, which found itself threatened with removal by the City of Rio de Janeiro. Using this study as an conductive axis of the discussion and following the methodology of B.S. Santos (2007), Latour (2011 [1991]) and Morin (1990), we understand the field as in place where knowledge is produced and put to practice, and in which the distortions of general thinking are reduced.

Authors: Velitzelos Dimitrios , Iamandei Stănilă , Iamandei Eugenia , Velitzelos Evangelos
Published: December 2019

The paper reports a palaeoxylotomical study of petrified palm remains (stem, root, rachis) collected from some fossil sites of Greece (Evros, Lemnos, Lesbos and Kastoria) aged to the late Oligocene to early Miocene. Five species of Palmoxylon were identified: P. daemonoropsoides (Unger) Kirchheimer, corr., P. chamaeropsoides Iamandei et Iamandei, sp. nov., P. coryphoides Ambwani et Mehrotra, P. sabaloides Greguss, P. trachycarpoides Iamandei et Iamandei, sp. nov. and P. phoenicoides Hofmann. Also found were two species of Rhizopalmoxylon (R. daemonoropsoides Iamandei et Iamandei, sp. nov., R. phoenicoides Iamandei et Iamandei, sp. nov.) and Palmocaulon sp. aff. Phoenix L. These new identifications add new elements to the forest assemblages of the Oligocene–Miocene Greek flora, useful for understanding the evolution of the Cenozoic palaeoclimate in the Aegean area.

Authors: Manchester Steven R. , Kapgate Dashrath K. , Ramteke Deepak D. , Patil Sharadkumar P. , Smith Selena Y.
Published: December 2019

Distinctive permineralized fruits of Baccatocarpon mohgaoense (Paradkar & Dixit) comb. nov. have been collected from several sites in the late Maastrichtian of the Deccan Intertrappean beds of Central India. We describe the peculiar fruits in detail, based on combined investigations by reflected light and X-ray CT scanning. Three-dimensional renderings and virtual slices confirm that the fruits have two lateral single-seeded locules and a central sterile chamber filled with parenchyma. The endocarp is thin-walled and opens apically longitudinal valves. Here we validate the generic name Baccatocarpon Bhowal & Sheikh ex Manchester, Ramteke, Kapgate & S.Y. Smith and recognize a single species, for which the name Baccatocarpon mohgaoense (Paradkar & Dixit) comb. nov. has priority. We document the occurrence of this species in cherts from the paleobotanical sites known as Bhutera, Keria, Mahurzari, Mohgoankalan, Paladaun, Marai Patan and Shibla. The systematic affinity of these fruits remains mysterious.

Published: December 2019

The composition and structure of rhizosphere bacteriobiome of the husk tomato (Physalis philadelphica Lam.) plants grown on Phaeozem in the open field in West Siberia, Russia (55°15’ NL, 83°31’ EL) were studied using Illumina MiSeq sequencing of the V3-V4 hypervariable region of 16S rRNA genes. In total 5898 OTUs (Operational Taxonomic Units) were found in the study, representing 20 phyla and 53 identified and 15 non-identified (below the phylum level) classes. The most OTU-rich phyla were Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria and Actinobacteria, their relative abundance in the total number of sequence reads being 26, 22 and 19%, respectively. Bacteroidetes, Gemmatimonadetes and Verrucomicrobia phyla each accounted for 2 ‒ 4%. The rest 14 of the identified phyla were quite negligible, contributing less than 0.5% each. At the OTUs level, the structure was very even and equitable, as only 7 OTUs had relative abundance ranging from 0.5 to 1.1%. The main dominant OTU represented Bradyrhizobiaceae family, implying the importance of nitrogen-fixing bacteria for plant growth and development without any mineral fertilisation. The dominance biodiversity index was very low (0.001), while Shannon index was rather high (7.5). We believe the presented husk tomato rhizosphere bacteriobiome, as the first study using new generation sequencing platform for this species, will help get a better picture of Solanaceae microbiomes in different environments, thus contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of shaping microbial communities by plant roots.
Analysis of the Influence of Magnetic Induction Ramp Profile on Axial Force and Friction Torque Generated by MR Fluid
Authors: Horak Wojciech , Szczęch Marcin
Published: December 2019

The unique properties of magnetic fluids result from their ability to undergo reversible, almost immediate, changes in their rheological properties under the influence of magnetic fields as well as the possibility to position them by magnetic field forces. It is also possible to control the direction and flow rate of such fluids. These properties provide an efficient way to develop new types of controllable machines and devices, such as brakes, clutches and bearings. The objective of the study was to examine the axial force and torque friction of a magnetorheological (MR) fluid working in the shear flow mode (parallel plate system) subjected to different magnetic induction ramp profiles. The rotation speed and working gap height were also taken into account. Determining the response of the tested system to magnetic induction change in different working conditions was of particular interest.
Non-Linear Analysis of Air Pressure Fluctuations During Bubble Departure Synchronisation
Authors: Dzienis Paweł , Mosdorf Romuald , Wyszkowski Tomasz , Rafałko Gabriela
Published: December 2019

In the recent paper, non-linear methods of data analysis were used to study bubble departure synchronisation. In the experiment, bubbles were generated in engine oils from two neighbouring brass nozzles (with an inner diameter of 1 mm). During the experiment, the time series of air pressure oscillations in the air supply system and voltage changes on phototransistor were recorded. The analysis of bubble departure synchronisation was performed using a correlation coefficient. The following methods of non-linear data analysis are considered. Fast Fourier Transformation, autocorrelation, attractor reconstruction, correlation dimension, largest Lyapunov exponent and recurrence plot analysis were used to examine the correlation between bubbles behaviour and character of pressure fluctuations. Non-linear analysis of bubble departure synchronisation revealed that the way of bubble departures from two neighbouring nozzles does not depend simply on the character of pressure fluctuations in the nozzle air supply systems. The chaotic changes of the air pressure oscillations do not always determine the chaotic bubble departures.
Common Methods in Analysing the Tribological Properties of Brake Pads and Discs – A Review
Authors: Borawski Andrzej
Published: December 2019

Disc brakes in passenger cars are extremely important due to safety concerns. Their operational quality largely rests on the conditions of contact between the working elements, which mainly consists offlat and dry sliding. The tribological phenomena thatoccur during braking are, unfortunately, extremely complex and difficult to recreate in laboratory settings. Many scientific institutes conduct research to improve our understanding of these phenomena. The results they present make it possible to continuously simplify the procedures for selecting friction materials and reducing the costs of identifying the properties of new products. This article analyses the methods commonly used by researchers. It also presents different set-ups of research stations, as well as the advantages and drawbacks of each method.

Published: December 2019

Regularity, length of the cycle and duration of menstrual flow are a reflection of women health. The purpose of the research was to assess the relationships between socioeconomic status, cycle length, duration of menses, regularity and dysmenorrhea. A survey was conducted among 896 healthy women from Łódź and Warsaw (Poland), aged 15.71–26.98. Women who were menarche at least 3 years ago were asked to complete the survey. Women were asked about cycle length (number of days), duration of menstrual flow, regularity of the cycle, dysmenorrhea, birth place, parental education level, attendance at physical education classes, participation in additional sports activities, self-assessment of stress levels at home and at school/university, and smoking. For data analysis, t-test, analysis of variance, and chi-square were used, and p<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. There were no significant relationships between the mean cycle length, regularity and the environmental factors, except for differences in the average length of the menstrual cycle in women from Łódź who attend additional sports activities. Women who are more physically active are characterized by a shorter menstrual cycle. In terms of the length of the menstrual flow, daughters of better educated fathers were characterized by longer menses. In contrast, dysmenorrhea was associated with longer menstrual periods and longer menstrual bleeding, as well as with higher levels of stress, both at home and at school. Environmental factors affected the features of menstruation cycles in women from Central Poland.
Comparison of some correlation measures for continuous and categorical data
Authors: Skotarczak Ewa , Dobek Anita , Moliński Krzysztof
Published: December 2019

In the literature there can be found a wide collection of correlation and association coefficients used for different structures of data. Generally, some of the correlation coefficients are conventionally used for continuous data and others for categorical or ordinal observations. The aim of this paper is to verify the performance of various approaches to correlation coefficient estimation for several types of observations. Both simulated and real data were analysed. For continuous variables, Pearson’s r
2 and MIC were determined, whereas for categorized data three approaches were compared: Cramér’s V, Joe’s estimator, and the regression-based estimator. Two method of discretization for continuous data were used. The following conclusions were drawn: the regression-based approach yielded the best results for data with the highest assumed r
2 coefficient, whereas Joe’s estimator was the better approximation of true correlation when the assumed r
2 was small; and the MIC estimator detected the maximal level of dependency for data having a quadratic relation. Moreover, the discretization method applied to data with a non-linear dependency can cause loss of dependency information. The calculations were supported by the R packages arules and minerva.
The effect of soil and weather conditions on yields of winter wheat in multi-environmental trials
Authors: Iwańska Marzena , Stępień Michał
Published: December 2019

Drought reduces crop yields not only in areas of arid climate. The impact of droughts depends on the crop growth stage and soil properties. The frequency of droughts will increase due to climate change. It is important to determine the environmental variables that have the strongest effect on wheat yields in dry years. The effect of soil and weather on wheat yield was evaluated in 2018, which was considered a very dry year in Europe. The winter wheat yield data from 19 trial locations of the Research Center of Cultivar Testing (COBORU), Poland, were used. Soil data from the trial locations, mean air temperature (T) and precipitation (P) were considered as environmental factors, as well as the climatic water balance (CWB). The hydrothermal coefficient (HTC), which is based on P and T, was also used. The effect of these factors on winter wheat yield was related to the weather conditions at particular growth stages. The soil had a greater effect than the weather conditions. CWB, P, T and HTC showed a clear relationship with winter wheat yield. Soil data and HTC are the factors most recommended for models predicting crop yields. In the selection of drought-tolerant genotypes, the plants should be subjected to stress especially during the heading and grain filling growth stages.
Talent identification in soccer using a one-class support vector machine

Published: December 2019

Identifying potential future elite athletes is important in many sporting events. The successful identification of potential future elite athletes at an early age would help to provide high-quality coaching and training environments in which to optimize their development. However, a large variety of different skills and qualities are needed to succeed in elite sports, making talent identification generally a complex and multifaceted problem. Due to the rarity of elite athletes, datasets are inherently imbalanced, making classical statistical inference difficult. Therefore, we approach talent identification as an anomaly detection problem. We trained a nonlinear one-class support vector machine (one-class SVM) on a dataset (N=951) collected from 14-year-old junior soccer players to detect potential future elite players. The mean area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC) over the tested hyperparameter combinations was 0.763 (std 0.007). The most accurate model was obtained when physical tests, measuring, for example, technical skills, speed, and agility, were used. According to our results, the proposed approach could be useful to support decision-makers in the process of talent identification.
Structural optical and electrical characterization of nanoparticle B doped ZnS films
Authors: Hurma Tulay
Published: December 2019

Structural, morphological, optical and electrical characteristics of zinc sulfide (ZnS) and boron doped zinc sulfide (ZnS:B) films deposited on glass substrates by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) method and heated up to 350±5 °C were studied. B doping at various concentrations did not change the crystal structure of the ZnS film and it also did not cause any significant change in the size of crystallites. Maximum transmittance values of the B doped ZnS films increased parallel to doping rate. Transmittance edges showed shifting towards smaller wavelengths due to the effect of B doping. B doping increased optical band gap values. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the film surfaces showed that B doping did not cause any significant change in grain sizes of the films. Presence of all expected elements in the films including Zn, S and B was confirmed through Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS) analysis. Significant peaks of foreign phases on the film surfaces were observed through Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The electrical resistivity values of the films were calculated by means of current-voltage characteristics.

Published: December 2019

The bioacoustic analyses of animal sounds result in an enormous amount of digitized acoustic data, and we need effective automatic processing to extract the information content of the recordings. Our research focuses on the song of Collared Flycatcher (Ficedula albicollis) and we are interested in the evolution of acoustic signals. During the last 20 years, we obtained hundreds of hours of recordings of bird songs collected in natural environment, and there is a permanent need for the automatic process of recordings. In this study, we chose an open-source, deep-learning image detection system to (1) find the species-specific songs of the Collared Flycatcher on the recordings and (2) to detect the small, discrete elements so-called syllables within the song. For these tasks, we first transformed the acoustic data into spectrogram images, then we trained two deep-learning models separately on our manually segmented database. The resulted models detect the songs with an intersection of union higher than 0.8 and the syllables higher than 0.7. This technique anticipates an order of magnitude less human effort in the acoustic processing than the manual method used before. Thanks to the new technique, we are able to address new biological questions that need large amount of acoustic data.
Biometric data of North African Blackbird Turdus merula: are there many subspecies?
Authors: Djemadi Imed , Bakhouche Badis , Draidi Khalil , Bouslama Zihad
Published: December 2019

During the past two centuries, few studies have been conducted on biometrics of North African Blackbirds. Several of these studies were carried out during the latter part of the 19th and in the early 20th centuries. As a result, two subspecies were recognized namely Turdus merula algira inhabiting northern regions of North Africa and some localities in southwestern continental Europe and T. m. mauritanicus inhabiting central western Morocco and southern Algeria and Tunisia (to the end of arid climatic regions). In this study we provide morphological data from the northeastern Algerian population of Blackbird. Results reveal no differences between sexes in any of the measurements (small sample size). Comparison of morphological data of specimens collected in the northern region of North Africa and from the southern region of Maghreb countries (Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco) show morphometric differences only in wing length. These results are consistent with the existence of multiple subspecies in North African populations of Blackbird. Our findings support the assumptions of previous researchers in considering T. m. algira as typical of northern areas of Maghreb countries and T. m. mauritanicus typical of southern areas of the region.
Cases of occasional interspecific brood parasitism and egg dumping in Hungary
Authors: Haraszthy László
Published: December 2019

There are numerous publications in the ornithological literature on mixed-species broods, i.e. on cases when a species lays some or all of its eggs into the nests of other species. This phenomenon, known as brood parasitism, has not yet been studied in Hungary. Here, I use the term brood parasitism, but I could not separate cases of egg dumping, a reproductive error by females. Based on literature and my own observations, I found evidence for interspecific brood parasitism in 28 species breeding in Hungary, not including the cases of the obligate interspecific brood parasite, the Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus). Only one of these belongs to passerines, while in the rest of the cases, this phenomenon occurred in representatives of non-passerine families. However, cases of brood parasitism and nest parasitism have to be treated separately. The latter refers to cases when a species occupies a nest, usually a nesthole or nestbox, already containing eggs of another species, and lays its own eggs next to the foreign eggs. The present study provides data on European Roller (Coracias garrulus), Northern Goshawk (Accipiter gentilis), Common Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), Red-footed Falcon (Falco vespertinus), Eurasian Hobby (Falco subbuteo), tit species (Parus, Cyanistes, Poecile spp.), Eurasian Nuthatch (Sitta europaea) and Eurasian Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus), but in all likelihood the number of species involved is much higher.
Evolution of Galliformes and their presence in the Carpathian Basin
Authors: Kessler Jenő Eugen
Published: December 2019

Due to the number of specimen, their size and weaker flight capabilities they are one of the favorite preys of furred and feathered carnivores. Due to this factor quite a number of skeletal fragments remained and fossilized over millions of years, especially in caves. Their presence in Europe can be traced back to the Eocene, but the majority of finds come from the Neogene and the Quaternary. In the Carpathian Basin they are known since the beginning of the Neogene. The text is complemented with the bibliography concerning the fossilized material, one figure and six table.
Lichen species as element bioindicators for air pollution in the eastern United States of America
Authors: Will-Wolf Susan , Jovan Sarah
Published: December 2019

Lichen element (N, S, metals) indicators of local air pollution load (a widely used technique) are recommended for five predefined regions covering central and southern parts of the eastern United States. The final recommendations integrate the advice of regional lichenologists, information from regional floras, and species abundance data from a United States Forest Service Forest Inventory and Analysis Program (FIA) lichen database for 11 of the 21 covered eastern states. Recommended species were frequent in their region, easy for nonspecialists to distinguish in the field after training, and easy to handle using clean protocols. Regression models of species abundance in FIA plots from five southeastern states vs. climate, air pollution (both from a regional lichen response model) and type of nearby landcover (from the National Land Cover Database) identified species’ environmental limitations. Punctelia rudecta is recommended for cooler forested uplands of all regions, with three Physcia species combined and Punctelia missouriensis for isolated woodlands or urban areas of three regions. Parmotrema hypotropum and P. hypoleucinum combined (weak environmental limitation) or P. perforatum. and P. subrigidum combined (limited in more polluted areas) are recommended for warmer Coastal Plains in two regions each. Additional species are recommended for single regions. Each species must be quantitatively evaluated in each region, to demonstrate indication reliability in practice and to calculate element data conversions between species for region-wide bioindication.
Differential responses to salt concentrations of lichen photobiont strains isolated from lichens occurring in different littoral zones
Authors: Gasulla Francisco , Guéra Alfredo , de los Ríos Asunción , Pérez-Ortega Sergio
Published: December 2019

An interesting biota of lichen-forming fungi occurs along rocky seashores of cold and warm-temperate regions in both hemispheres. Most of the species belong to the family Verrucariaceae and form symbioses with an extraordinarily diverse group of photobionts. We isolated the photobionts of three species: Hydropunctaria maura and H. amphibia from the supralittoral zone, and Wahlenbergiella striatula from the upper intertidal zone. We characterized the isolated strains structurally by means of transmission electron microscopy, and molecularly using the nrSSU and nrITS and chloroplast RPL10A regions. Additionally, we studied the response of the strains to different salt concentrations, analyzed the concentration of osmoregulatory solutes, and measured photosynthesis performance by chlorophyll fluorescence and CO2 assimilation techniques. All strains belong to the recently described species Halofilum ramosum, although we found differences in the ITS and RPL10A regions among the strains shared by H. maura and H. amphibia and the strain isolated from W. striatula. Differences were also found in the main osmoregulatory response of the strains growing under high salt concentrations: W. striatula accumulated glycerol, while H. maura and H. amphibia synthetized sucrose. Analyses of photosynthesis performance also indicated differences in physiological behavior between supralittoral-dwelling and intertidal-dwelling species, W. striatula showing lower photosynthetic activity under high irradiance. Our results highlight the role of photobionts in determining lichen zonation on rocky seashores.
Muellerella, a lichenicolous fungal genus recovered as polyphyletic within Chaetothyriomycetidae (Eurotiomycetes, Ascomycota)
Authors: Muggia Lucia , Pérez-Ortega Sergio , Ertz Damien
Published: December 2019

Molecular data and culture-dependent methods have helped to uncover the phylogenetic relationships of numerous species of lichenicolous fungi, a specialized group of taxa that inhabit lichens and have developed diverse degrees of specificity and parasitic behaviors. The majority of lichenicolous fungal taxa are known in either their anamorphic or teleomorphic states, although their anamorph-teleomorph relationships have been resolved in only a few cases. The pycnidium-formingLichenodiplis lecanoraeand the perithecioid taxaMuellerella atricolaandM. lichenicolawere recently recovered as monophyletic inChaetothyriales(Eurotiomycetes). Both genera are lichenicolous on multiple lichen hosts, upon which they show a subtle morphological diversity reflected in the description of 14 species inMuellerella(of which 12 are lichenicolous) and 12 inLichenodiplis. Here we focus on the teleomorphic genusMuellerellaand investigate its monophyly by expanding the taxon sampling to other species occurring on diverse lichen hosts. We generated molecular data for two nuclear and one mitochondrial loci (28S, 18S and 16S) from environmental samples. The present multilocus phylogeny confirms the monophyletic lineage of the teleomorphicM. atricolaandM. lichenicolawith theirL. lecanorae-like anamorphs, but places the rest of theMuellerellaspecies studied in two different monophyletic lineages with strong support. The first,Muellerellaspp. 1, is nested within some new lineages of black fungi isolated from different epilithic lichen thalli, while the second,Muellerellaspp. 2, is closely related to theVerrucariales. Based on these results, we reappraise the phylogenetic placement ofMuellerellaand suggest its polyphyly withinChaetothyriomycetidae.
Expansion of the Transport System as a Factor Affecting the Real Estate Market, with the Construction of the Olsztyn Ring-Road as an Example
Authors: Szczepańska Agnieszka
Published: December 2019

Improvement of spatial accessibility, associated with changes in the transport system, can affect the local real estate market. This is because better transport accessibility and reducing the time of a journey home affects the location-related attractiveness of real estate.

A ring-road in a town is an example of changes in the transport system of an urban functional area. Such an investment project is being carried out in the Olsztyn suburban zone. The aim of the study was to verify whether the execution of this road construction project affects the local real estate market in the suburban area in the plot segment. The scope of the study included the change of activity and price level. The study period included the years 2007-2018. The analyses were based on descriptive statistics.

This paper presents the effect of transport accessibility on real estate prices, the importance of the ring-road under construction arising from the strategic document analysis, the methodology applied, and the conclusions of the study.

The results indicate a systematic increase in the number of transactions and average unit prices of building plots from the moment a permit for carrying out a road construction project was issued.
The Effect of Location on the Value of Ornamental Trees Using the Example of a Green Space in Lublin
Authors: Czernyszewicz Eugenia , Szymańska Małgorzata , Żuraw Beata , Leziak Katarzyna
Published: December 2019

This paper examines and identifies, using a specific example, how the location of trees influences their value. For the valuation of trees outside a forest area, appraisers often employ methods recommended for estimating forest stands, which significantly reduces the value of trees and valued properties. The tree-valuation method developed by SZCZEPANOWSKA et al. (2010) was used in our study. First, we compiled an inventory of trees located on plots intended for expropriation. The study covered all specimens with trunk circumferences of over 25 centimetres, which amounted to a total of 76 trees. We considered the value of the trees in the conditions of the actual location, which means that our calculations included house gardens in the city and the values of the same trees in hypothetical growth conditions: tree stands in rural and urban areas, green spaces in urban and rural areas, housing estates, roads and streets (both urban and rural), and historic areas, health resorts and health-resort protection zones.

Our study has shown that the tree valuation method based on differentiating coefficients is a very useful tool for establishing the value of trees in outlying areas.
Genotype by environment interaction and teak (Tectona grandis L.) selection in Costa Rica
Authors: Murillo O. , de Resende M.D.V. , Badilla Y. , Gamboa J.P.
Published: December 2019

A teak progeny trial was established with four replicates at different sites along the northern Pacific region of Costa Rica. The trials followed a randomized block design, with 28 open pollinated families and 36 seedlings per family per site. Data from 7 years-old trees was analyzed both for each test location separately and for all locations combined. High individual heritability was found for diameter, which translates to higher breeding potential. The all locations combined analysis showed high genetic variation, with individual heritabilities reaching up to 22 %. Genotype by Environment (GxE) interactions explained only 2.5 % of total phenotypic variation. The genetic correlation (rg) among all four sites was 0.69. Hence, it is concluded that GxE interactions are not problematic for breeding purposes since they are not complex in nature. This teak breeding population showed strong genetic stability and performed well in most environments in the study area. The Hojancha location showed high genetic correlation with all other sites; therefore, it should be chosen for future testing and selection of elite genotypes. Selection of the 20 best individuals, allowing for up to two individuals per family, would result in a 1.78 cm (11 %) gain in diameter. Furthermore, based on this selection the inbreeding coefficient (F) in the offspring would only reach 2.9 %, while the expected effective population size (Ne) would be16.97 individuals. This selection scheme could reduce rotation age by almost two years, since the diameter goal of 40 cm would be reached earlier than the usual 20 years cycle. The results suggest that the progeny trial can be maintained as a single breeding population, suitable for planting in any site along the Northern Pacific region of Costa Rica.
Dividend Smoothing and Investor Protection
Authors: Džidić Ante , Orsag Silvije
Published: December 2019

This paper examines the agency model of dividends where the importance of dividends depends on the level of investor protection. The importance of dividends is presented by the dividend smoothing concept, while the level of investor protection is determined by the legal origin. Within this, the sensitivity of dividends to earnings changes was analyzed to examine the universality of the dividend smoothing phenomenon. Subsequently, the difference in proportions of dividend smoothing firms within the common law and civil law countries was tested to determine which of these two systems attributes more importance to dividends. Finally, the application of Lintner’s model was examined in transition countries as well as in United States. Research results show that dividend smoothing is a globally widespread phenomenon, but the likelihood to reduce or cut dividends is greater in civil law countries. Also, the largest percentage of dividend smoothing firms was recorded in common law countries.
Mobile phone penetration and its impact on inequality in the Western Balkan countries
Authors: Vokshi Mjellma Carabregu , Dedaj But , Ben Youssef Adel , Toçi Valentin
Published: December 2019

The aim of this paper is to analyse the effect of the mobile phone penetration rate on inequality in Western Balkan countries and to provide empirical evidence. We explore the question of whether cell phone diffusion helps to decrease inequality and whether it has a positive income equality effect. In the developed conceptual framework, we consider that people with access to mobile telephony also have access to Wi-Fi and GPS and that individuals can perform different activities, such as engaging in e-commerce, e-governance, health, and education; paying bills; saving money; and transferring money to other persons. This represents a good foundation for poor persons exit the cycle of deprivation and leads to the development of equal opportunities. We analyse the impact of mobile phone penetration on inequality in Western Balkan countries by using ordinary least squares and two-stage least squares models (Asongu, 2015). Our results confirm the income-redistributive effect of mobile phone penetration.
V.V. Nabokov and F.I. Tyutchev: Double Being
Authors: Arutyunov G. G. , Latyeva E. V. , Nazarova N. E.
Published: December 2019

The article attempts to find common ground between the artistic systems divided by a century – the lyrics of the Russian poet and philosopher F. I. Tyutchev and prose of the outstanding Russian-American writer V. V. Nabokov. The first part of the article deals with the ideas of domestic and foreign researchers of the peculiarity of the Nabokov’s aesthetic system. Nabokov did not write a special article and did not publish a single lecture on Tyutchev’s lyrics, although he repeatedly turned to the work of the poet, in particular, while teaching in America, left excellent translations of his poems into English. The authors of the article show the common perception of life of nature and man for both authors. The inner closeness of Nabokov and Tyutchev is manifested not so much in direct statements as indirectly. This is an acknowledgement of the narrator in the General Ledger, Nabokov’s Other shores (“Pushkin and Tolstoy, Tyutchev, Gogol stood at the four corners of my world”); and accented by the intertextuality in the prose of the author with specific Tyutchen’s reminiscences, sometimes shocking-pun (short story “Cloud, lake, tower”); and focusing on the motifs of memory, gift, abyss (in Schellingian understanding); and Nabokov’s use of the key opposition “dream – chaos”, which runs through the entire lyrics of Tyutchev. The second part of the article is devoted to the analysis of Tyutchev’s poetry in the light of researches conducted by Russian philosophers and literary critics. The article notes the little-known fact that Nabokov and Tyutchev were related in kinship. You can find out at what point the kinship of the two great masters of the word crossed by reading the article.

Development Of Landsat Cloud Free Image Data For Classification Of Land Cover-Case Study In Dak Lak Province
Authors: Anh Tuan Tran , Duong Nguyen Dinh
Published: December 2019

Land cover mapping by optical remote sensing has many obstacles including clouds. Clouds block solar radiation coming to earth surface and reflective radiance from the earth surface to remote optical sensors resulting. Therefore, clouds result no-signal areas in images that cannot be used for study of ground objects. In many cases, thin clouds degrade quality of reflective radiance and some times alter, unexpectedly, spectral reflectance characteristics of ground objects leading to false classification. In this paper, the authors present an algorithm on application of multidate for development of cloud free image. The used image data were received in rainy and dry seasons and by stacking, cloud free images representing rainy and dry seasons were created. These cloud free images can be used further for classification of land cover in rainy and dry seasons. Experiments were conducted with Landsat 8 OLI images with path/row number 124/51 covering Dak Lak province of Vietnam. The results of case study were development of cloud free image data representing rainy and dry seasons allowing separation of evegreen and deciduous forests in the study site.

Published: December 2019

Determination of particles size is important in pharmaceutical research and manufacturing of drug delivery system in nano scale. This study was carried out to evaluate particles size of nano polymer particles, composed of Eudragit RL 100, and nano liposomes, composed of hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol. Dynamic light scaterring was used to determine nano particles size. The results showed that, dilution ratio influenced differently on the determined nanoparticles.  Liposomal suspension, which was diluted to count rate less than 170 kcps, had statistically significant larger particle than that, which had greater count rate. Polymer particles, which were diluted to count rate less than 126 had statistically significant larger particles than that, which had greater count rate.

Keywords

Particle size, nano polymer particle, nano liposomes, dynamic light scattering (DLS).

CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA PSICOPEDAGOGIA: REFLEXÕES ACERCA DA INTERVENÇÃO DOCENTE NO PROCESSO DE ENSINO
Authors: Bochenek Sandro , Souza Elizete Simonelli de
Published: December 2019

A psicopedagogia é uma ciência que estuda a aprendizagem humana, tanto nos aspectos psicológicos como cognitivos. A intenção deste texto é refletir sobre a importância do trabalho do psicopedagogo na instituição escolar, como mais um profissional que atua por meio de um processo investigativo, a fim de entender e intervir nas causas do fracasso escolar. Sua atuação se processa em vários setores, tais como assessoria aos professores no planejamento das intervenções pedagógicas em sala de aula; orientação às famílias, aos alunos; auxílio à equipe pedagógica; entre outros. O presente trabalho empreende uma pesquisa bibliográfica como pressuposto metodológico, por meio da qual se buscou entender os desafios atualmente enfrentados na luta por uma educação pública de qualidade, para que os estudantes tenham acesso, permanência e sucesso em suas trajetórias escolares; se apropriem do saber científico historicamente acumulado; sejam capazes de situar-se e entender o contexto social em que estão inseridos; compreendam-se como sujeitos aprendentes, com autonomia para fazer uso dos conhecimentos científicos como instrumento de intervenção na realidade.
INTERDISCIPLINARIDADE NA PERCEPÇÃO DE DOCENTES DE ENSINO SUPERIOR

O objetivo foi conhecer a percepção de docentes acerca da interdisciplinaridade no ensino da fisioterapia. Participaram do estudo 10 docentes, que responderam a um questionário sobre “Interdisciplinaridade no ensino da fisioterapia”. O contato ocorreu em março de 2018, na reunião semanal do curso. Os dados foram interpretados por meio de análise de discurso. Os docentes percebem a interdisciplinaridade como uma integração, interação de diferentes saberes. Atualmente busca-se trabalhar a interdisciplinaridade de forma mais efetiva quando comparado ao passado. As estratégias utilizadas são o trabalho em equipe com diversos profissionais da área da saúde, estágio, as rodas de conversa, entre outros. O exercício da interdisciplinaridade pelos discentes ainda é difícil, mas não se pode pensar em outro modelo de formação onde a interdisciplinaridade não seja o ponto norteador, pois assim surgirão profissionais preparados e motivados para uma atuação diferenciada, competente e contemporânea.

Published: December 2019

This paper describes a clinical case of scalp metastases in the setting of breast cancer. The data on the prevalence of the disease in Russia and the necessity of its early diagnostics is provided. The clinical picture and trichoscopic signs of neoplastic processes in the scalp are presented: alopecia foci of 1–3 cm in diameter; foci older than 6 months featuring erythematous and atrophic skin; nodes of the colour of healthy skin or with a yellowish tint sized 1 cm in diameter; trichoscopy — in the foci older than 6 months, the vascular structures are represented by point, thick and thin tree-like vessels. In connection with a poor prognosis for survival when skin metastases are detected, the onco-alertness of practitioners in relation to scalp metastases should be increased.

A RESSOCIALIZAÇÃO DO DETENTO A PARTIR DO PRAZO PARA O CUMPRIMENTO DA FUNÇÃO SOCIAL DA EMPRESA NA SOCIEDADE CONTEMPORÂNEA.
Authors: Costa Fabrício Veiga , Pinto Alisson Alves
Published: December 2019

O objetivo do presente artigo cientifico é investigar a relação existente entre o princípio da função social da empresa e a ressocialização do detento mediante a oportunidade de trabalho no âmbito organizacional. A escolha do tema se justifica em razão de sua relevância social, jurídica, política e econômica, haja vista que contemporaneamente o compromisso assumido pelas organizações está atrelado a sua responsabilidade social e sustentabilidade, ultrapassando-se a premissa clássica de que empresa visa apenas lucro e acumulo de capital. Por meio de pesquisas bibliográfica e documental, análises temáticas, teóricas, interpretativas e críticas, demonstrou-se que a ressocialização de detentos integra um dos espectros da função social da empresa, tornando o cumprimento da pena mais humano, assegurando maior dignidade ao apenado, retroalimentando o sistema produtivo, além de viabilizar a possibilidade de remição da pena.
LIBERDADE DE EXPRESSÃO FRENTE À LIBERDADE RELIGIOSA: DIREITOS FUNDAMENTAIS EM CONFLITO E PROTEÇÃO DE DIREITOS DA PERSONALIDADE FRENTE A DISCURSOS DE ÓDIO
Authors: De Castro Alexander , Nascimento Gabriel Bassaga
Published: December 2019

: Os direitos fundamentais são essenciais para a promoção do princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana e tem uma relação de complementariedade com os direitos da personalidade em sua acepção mais ampla. Muito se especula sobre supostas situações de conflito entre a liberdade de expressão e a liberdade religiosa e os modos de solucioná-las. Procurou-se aqui examinar as hipotéticas possibilidades de conflito entre tais direitos. Concluiu-se que a simples ofensa a símbolos ou ideias religiosas, sob a proteção da liberdade de expressão, não necessariamente prejudica a liberdade de religião, mas antes pode até ser – em um certo sentido – um instância de complementariedade entre ambos. Entretanto, no que diz respeito especificamente ao discurso de ódio, a dignidade humana e os direitos da personalidade podem ser ofendidos gravemente através do abuso da liberdade de expressão, levando à estigmatização de grupos através do ataque a símbolos constituintes da sua identidade
