Numerical Characterization of Cohesive and Non-Cohesive ‘Sediments’ under Different Consolidation States Using 3D DEM Triaxial Experiments
Authors: Elyashiv Hadar , Bookman Revital , Siemann Lennart , ten Brink Uri , Huhn Katrin
Published: October 2020

The Discrete Element Method has been widely used to simulate geo-materials due to time and scale limitations met in the field and laboratories. While cohesionless geo-materials were the focus of many previous studies, the deformation of cohesive geo-materials in 3D remained poorly characterized. Here, we aimed to generate a range of numerical ‘sediments’, assess their mechanical response to stress and compare their response with laboratory tests, focusing on differences between the micro- and macro-material properties. We simulated two endmembers—clay (cohesive) and sand (cohesionless). The materials were tested in a 3D triaxial numerical setup, under different simulated burial stresses and consolidation states. Variations in particle contact or individual bond strengths generate first order influence on the stress–strain response, i.e., a different deformation style of the numerical sand or clay. Increased burial depth generates a second order influence, elevating peak shear strength. Loose and dense consolidation states generate a third order influence of the endmember level. The results replicate a range of sediment compositions, empirical behaviors and conditions. We propose a procedure to characterize sediments numerically. The numerical ‘sediments’ can be applied to simulate processes in sediments exhibiting variations in strength due to post-seismic consolidation, bioturbation or variations in sedimentation rates.
Artificial Intelligence and Robotics in Smart City Strategies and Planned Smart Development
Authors: Golubchikov Oleg , Thornbush Mary
Published: October 2020

Smart city strategies developed by cities around the world provide a useful resource for insights into the future of smart development. This study examines such strategies to identify plans for the explicit deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. A total of 12 case studies emerged from an online keyword search representing cities of various sizes globally. The search was based on the keywords of “artificial intelligence” (or “AI”), and “robot,” representing robotics and associated terminology. Based on the findings, it is evident that the more concentrated deployment of AI and robotics in smart city development is currently in the Global North, although countries in the Global South are also increasingly represented. Multiple cities in Australia and Canada actively seek to develop AI and robotics, and Moscow has one of the most in-depth elaborations for this deployment. The ramifications of these plans are discussed as part of cyber–physical systems alongside consideration given to the social and ethical implications.
Creating Successful Student Learning Outcomes: The Case of Trinity University’s Quality Enhancement Plan Entitled “Starting Strong”
Authors: Hermann John R.
Published: October 2020

Using Starting Strong as a case study, this article examines how four successful Student Learning Outcomes (SLO’s) emerged and one was eliminated during the Quality Enhancement Plan’s (QEP’s) development process. In comparison to the one that was purged, the four successful SLO’s had five commonalities: 1. Virtually unanimous support from the administration; 2. Wide acceptance of the SLO from the faculty and staff members working on the QEP; 3. A shared conception between the administration and faculty/staff of what is an appropriate SLO; 4. The SLO’s could be clearly conceptualized and measured; And, 5., the SLO’s are financially feasible for the university to implement. The study hopes that this article may provide guidance for other universities undertaking and developing SLO’s and QEP’s.
An Overview of the Development of New Vaccines for Tuberculosis
Authors: Whitlow E. , Mustafa A. S. , Hanif S. N. M.
Published: October 2020

Currently, there is only one licensed vaccine against tuberculosis (TB), the Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG). Despite its protective efficacy against TB in children, BCG has failed to protect adults against pulmonary TB, lacks therapeutic value, and causes complications in immunocompromised individuals. Furthermore, it compromises the use of antigens present in the purified protein derivate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the diagnosis of TB. Many approaches, e.g., whole-cell organisms, subunit, and recombinant vaccines are currently being explored for safer and more efficacious TB vaccines than BCG. These approaches have been successful in developing a large number of vaccine candidates included in the TB vaccine pipeline and are at different stages of clinical trials in humans. This paper discusses current vaccination strategies, provides directions for the possible routes towards the development of new TB vaccines and highlights recent findings. The efforts for improved TB vaccines may lead to new licensed vaccines capable of replacing/supplementing BCG and conferring therapeutic value in patients with active/latent TB.

Published: October 2020

Identification of an active center of catalysts under realistic working conditions of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) still remains a great challenge and unclear. Herein, we synthesize the Cu single atom embedded on nitrogen-doped graphene-like matrix electrocatalyst (abbreviated as SA-Cu/NG). The results show that SA-Cu/NG possesses a higher ORR capability than 20% Pt/C at alkaline solution while the inferior activity to 20% Pt/C at acidic medium. Based on the experiment and simulation calculation, we identify the atomic structure of Cu-N

Grameen Microcredit as an Archetype of Islamic and Ethical Micro Financing Experiences: Respondents’ Perceptions on its Viability in Nigeria
Authors: Bello Hashim Sabo , Hassan Yunus Jibril , Ahmad Nura
Published: October 2020

Making microcredit facilities accessible to the poorest members of society have attracted well support from neoliberals partly due to its prominence on individual responsibility and those on the left of the political spectrum to a certain extent for the reason of its potential to empower women. Following this premise, the paper focused on the justification of ethical micro financing in Nigeria with consideration of experiences worldwide that Islamic micro financing is one of the fastest-growing segments in both the domestic and international financial system. This study also intends to inspire the espousal of alternative ethical finance to tie together its benefits in Nigeria. A structured questionnaire was distributed to the Bauchi metropolis; thereby, a convenience sampling technique was used. The data collected were analyzed using frequency tables, percentages, and simple tabulation. This study believed that poverty is not created by poor people. It is created by the institutions and policies which surround them. Loans offer people the chance to take initiatives in business and agriculture to make earnings that enable them to pay off debt. This paper largely recommended that the acceptance of Islamic and ethical microfinancing experiences are the foremost component of the struggle against poverty and can be used to ease the discouraging impact of the high unemployment rate among the youth in Nigeria and other Muslim countries.

The problems of industrial workers is a matter of concern for the partners of industry, Research scholars, academicians, policy makers, planners, labor leaders, and social workers. Recently there has been a growing awareness of the existence, importance, and needs of the unprotected workers. The unprotected workers are, by definition, disadvantaged workers, the degree varies from section to section. There is a lot of research in the field of unprotected workers. But very few research has been carried out about the unprotected industrial workers belonging to engineering and foundry units, who form a sizeable proportion of the total labor force. There is an immediate need to focus on occupational safety for the formal/organized industrial workers. In India, occupational health safety has so far benefited, only for workers of the formal sector. Against this background, the current study attempted to know the Determinants of Occupational Health Problems of industrial workers in Coimbatore – Tamilnadu. The study found that the sample industrial workers appear to be suffering from occupational-related health problems has increased with an increase in their current age, and such likelihood is also noted as moderately higher among those who are in debt, but unexpectedly such suffering from health problems is also found to be higher among those who own assets.

Transcending Natural Resource Management towards Clinch of Internal Security: Some Evidences from India
Authors: Vishwakarma Amit , Naz Quazi Afshan
Published: October 2020

India is indisputably on the advancing front of progress where its hefty natural resources serve the greatest assets to reckon with. The progress of any country is directly dependent upon the quality and quantum of available natural resources with it. For a country like India having vast continentality, these natural resources are catalysts in programs associated with human development and sustainability. However, with the enormous rise of population and dwindling resource pools, the society suffers from critical disturbances in internal security across the country’s length and breadth. There exists a proven causal relationship of a significant association between shocks to natural resources and the intensity of civil conflicts in a region. The episodes resulting from a disrupted state of internal security pose a massive challenge to government functionaries inkeeping pace with worldwide socio-economic development. The obvious choice of Natural Resource Management (NRM) provides one of the promising keys to handle this menace effectively. Thepresent work explores this meticulous strategy of assuring internal security through an improved pragmatism and judicious use of natural resources in states marred with recurring incidences of chaos and human violence. The planning and monitoring of internal security with peoples’ stake depend evidently upon the technical capability of government in handling resources with a vision for Possibilism. NRM, thus, conceptualize a framework of governance where exploitation of resources and sustenance of internal security in India go hand-in-hand prudently. The paper attempts to resolve a deteriorating internal security situation by strategizing a development-cumsustainability approach to keep a large nation safe and secure.
Geopolitical Dynamics of the Persian Gulf and Central Asia in the US Global Policy
Authors: Yazdani Enayatollah
Published: October 2020

The demise of the Soviet Union and the end of the bipolar system affected the geopolitics of the glob. One of the main features of the new world system is the importance of the world economy; accordingly, any power that dominates the Persian Gulf, with its enormous energy resources, would dominate the world. Yet, Central Asia, with its energy resources and strategic location, has attracted the powers attention. Under the new circumstances, the United States has tried to play an influential role in both regions. Here the main question is: which region is more important in US foreign policy, the Persian Gulf, or Central Asia? The paper concludes although Central Asia has a special role in US global policy, particularly after the 9/11 events, the Persian Gulf, for its greater amount of energy and crucial geopolitical position, as a new “heartland” or “center of the center” contains long-identified vital US national interests and security more than any other region.

THE ROLE OF MONEY IN SELF-IDENTIFICATION SOCIAL AND TERRITORIAL COMMUNITIES
Authors: FATIKHOV Almir I.
Published: October 2020

The image of each territorial community is formed on the basis of many components, including the state of socio-economic relations and the structure of monetary circulation. Money, as we know, is part of the financial system of society, contributes to the development of exchange operations and carries a part of the external attributes of the territories within which they operate. In the article, the role of money as an important structural element of self-identification of communities is described on the example of two levels of socio-territorial planning: state, when the country acts as an independent community and local. At the first level, the self-identification of countries occurs, firstly, by issuing national currencies that have a certain value on world markets, and secondly, by identifying money with the cultural and historical features and national symbols of the state, portraying portraits of great historical figures on them , maps, settlements, architectural objects, memorable dates, etc. At the level of local communities (urban and rural settlements), community self-identification can be carried out in two main ways. Firstly, by a built-in system of monetary circulation within the community, and secondly, by the possible release of their own local money, which function in the exchange process along with the official currency of the country.
SOCIOLOGICAL EDUCATION OF THE POPULATION OF THE USSR IN LATE 1950 - EARLY 1980
Authors: ZAKIEVA Rafina R. , KOZIN Sergei V.
Published: October 2020

In this article, the authors analyzed relevant publications devoted to the formation of "revival" of domestic sociology, as well as the role of what place sociology occupied in science, society, education, History, Economics, etc. In addition, the time period of Soviet sociology of the late 1950s-early 1980s was covered. Within the framework of this article, a brief description of how the implementation of sociological education of the population of the USSR took place in that period is given. Going through the pages of Soviet sociology, the authors substantiate the fact that the sociology of the historical period was tightly used not only in research areas of specific universities, laboratories, but also in many industries, as well as the power structures of the USSR. Further in the work the merit of eminent Soviet scientists in creation of "Institute of concrete social researches" (which since 1972 became called "Institute of sociological researches" and since 1988 Institute of sociology of Academy of Sciences of the USSR, in a consequence of RAS) is noted. The paper substantiates the position that sociological knowledge encouraged citizens of the multinational people of the USSR to act consciously and proactively in accordance with the objective laws of social development. The next major step, on which the authors of the work purposefully sharpened their keen vision, is the role of consolidation and mutual exchange of sociological research (this was especially "vividly" reflected in the late 1960s and early 1980s) in a number of different sociological services.
SOCIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF SOCIAL AND COMMUNICATIVE NATURE OF LAW IN THE SYSTEM OF DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNICATIVE LEGAL CULTURE OF YOUTH
Authors: AYVAZYAN Oksana O.
Published: October 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of the socio-communicative nature of law as a factor in the development of the communicative-legal culture of youth. An analysis of the theories of scientists considering law and communication as social institutions is presented, which directly affects the formation of a communicative-legal culture of both the individual and society as a whole. The paper notes a common understanding of the social and communicative conditionality of law. This is confirmed by the fact that social norms arise in society in the process of people’s communicative interaction, and are treated by many scientists as truly legal, which regulate the external manifestations of the human will. Such norms derive from the needs of each person and society as a whole, and this indicates that they are prioritized by legislatively established norms that serve only for their implementation. At the same time, taking such a definition of law as a basis, in the context of this study, the importance of the fact that the effectiveness of the formation of legal norms in society through communicative interaction depends on the accuracy and correctness of the application of the principles of legal communication, indicating the level of communication and legal culture of each individual and society in whole. The article also describes the author’s sociological survey and its results, which note the presence of socio-communicative conditionality of law, an insufficient level of knowledge and skills of the basics of law and communication, which indicates that the communicative and legal competence of young people is not fully formed. The conclusion resumes are drawn on the importance of the communicative and legal culture of both the individual and society as a whole.
SOME ISSUES OF THE CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERNATIONAL JOINT EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMES
Authors: GORYLEV Alexander I.
Published: October 2020

The article analyzes the issues of creating and implementing international joint educational programmes as a mandatory element for internationalization of all aspects of university activities. The participation of Russian universities in the Bologna process and in the formation of the European Higher Education Area allowed them not only to expand the scale of cooperation with leading foreign universities, but also to gain valuable practical experience in organizing joint educational activities in the framework of international educational programmes leading students to obtain degrees from several universities. The article examines in detail the readiness of Russian universities to implement such programmes, as well as the attitude of employers in Russia towards them. Speaking of the need to increase the competitiveness of Russian universities, the development of international joint programmes is revealed through the prism of exporting educational services to other countries. It is concluded that, studying in international joint programmes, students generate unique skills that are in demand in the international labor market, owing to their development by innovative approaches in the field of higher education through international inter-university cooperation in the field of education. The article also demonstrates the experience of Lobachevsky University in implementing international cooperation with foreign universities, which can be used by other Russian universities in the creation and implementation of international joint programmes.

La tensión tonal: controversias y debates sobre su realidad perceptual
Authors:   , Rizzardi Claudia Josefina
Published: October 2020

Esta tesis problematiza la realidad perceptual del concepto de tensión tonal, y su contrapartida el reposo, y se propone analizar la complejidad que este concepto tiene especialmente en etapas iniciales de la formación musical. El objetivo principal reside en la posibilidad de conocer los factores que los sujetos sin conocimientos musicales específicos estiman y asocian con la idea de tensión. Para ello se realiza una revisión de los enfoques de la Psicología de la Música en referencia al modo en que los oyentes perciben las relaciones tonales y cómo el concepto de movimiento, junto con las relaciones de tensión y reposo, aparece relacionado en las distintas modelizaciones como construcciones metafóricas. Asimismo, se analizan distintos enfoques en el ámbito de la Educación Musical institucionalizada y la influencia del modelo objetivista, a partir del cual la notación musical, fue tomada como modelo de referencia para el desarrollo del oído musical. Se presenta evidencia empírica obtenida a partir de diferentes estudios los cuales indicarían que la idea de la tensión tonal no constituye una entidad de acceso espontáneo para los sujetos que no desarrollaron experiencias musicales basadas en la notación musical.
THE CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF AN APPLICATION TO INCREASE PUBLIC AWARENESS ON ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE
Authors: Mohamad Ummul Hanan , Nordin Aliimran , Ahmad Azlina
Published: October 2020

The emergence of antibiotics resistance has been one of the global health concerns. Hence, this paper analyzed the users' requirements to design a conceptual model of an application that can increase public awareness of the antibiotic resistance issue. The study involves 123 participants, in which they completed an online-based questionnaire to address the study's objectives. Two contributing factors associated with antibiotic resistance via common public malpractices are identified, including taking antibiotics for common viral diseases and not finishing antibiotics treatment. Hence, the conceptual model's design considers the need to educate users with correct information, engage users, and integrate elements that allow for voluntary behavior changes. For that reason, the gamification technique is incorporated into the design of the conceptual awareness model.

A case study of Neolithic pottery typology
and radiocarbon chronology
Authors: Trampota František , Květina Petr
Published: October 2020

The object of the paper is to update the current concept of the chronology of the Neolithic (c. 5400–3300 BC) of the Czech Republic and northern Lower Austria by comparing the typo-chronological development of pottery and modelling the corresponding radiocarbon dates. Up until now, pottery and its style have often
been perceived in Central Europe as “basic indicators” of archaeological cultures or pottery traditions, which are then further divided into chronological stages and phases. And yet, an analysis of the relationships of all three levels of these entities in the context of four types of models of radiocarbon dates indicates that changes in the original material culture do not necessarily occur on a time axis. While it is true that
archaeological cultures have proven to be the robust materialisation of primarily chronological trends valid in larger geographic areas, at the level of general and more detailed pottery groups, development can be manifested in other ways (regionally, socially or in a way that is difficult to interpret).

On the basis of selected types of supra-regional brooches (A.65, Nauheim, Schüsselfibeln, A.18), an attempt was made to check whether they appeared in the eastern part of Germania in the same chronological rhythm as in their home zones. The service life of A.65 brooch and post-oppidial forms A.18 north of the Carpathians corresponds to the chronology in the primary distribution zone, no significant differences can be seen. Another picture – obtained, however, from a small number of finds – is drawn for Nauheim type brooches, which seem to remain in use a little longer in the zone between the Carpathian Mountains and the Baltic coast, until the younger stage of the LT D2 phase. Similarly, bowl-shaped brooches (Schüsselfibeln), probably made mostly in local workshops, were worn in the north for several decades longer than
in the zone south of the Carpathian Mountains. In Pomerania they came into use probably slightly earlier than in the area of Przeworsk culture and probably went out of fashion a little faster. This indicates a slightly different rhythm of stylistic and fashion changes between southern and central Poland (Przeworsk culture) and the north – the region of the lower Vistula and the Gulf of Gdańsk.

Introdução: A exposição solar desprotegida seguida de queimadura solar pode ser reconhecida como fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de câncer de pele no futuro. Este artigo abordará a importância da fotoproteção na prevenção de queimaduras solares e câncer de pele, estimando a prevalência de queimaduras solares entre acadêmicos de medicina na região Oeste do Paraná. Objetivos: estimar a prevalência de queimaduras no último ano e identificar fatores relacionados à fotoproteção na amostra. Metodologia: Foi realizada amostragem com 330 acadêmicos de medicina residentes na região Oeste do Estado do Paraná e os dados foram coletados por meio de questionários autoaplicáveis. Resultados e discussão: Seguindo tendência de outros estudos no país, a prevalência, na presente amostra, de ao menos um episódio de queimadura solar no último ano pode ser considerada alta. Foi relatada por aproximadamente 1/3 dos entrevistados, ocorrendo na faixa etária entre 18 e 29 anos, fototipos mais baixos, com prevalência semelhante entre os sexos, e que faziam uso irregular de fotoprotetor ou que possuíam hábitos inadequados de fotoproteção. Conclusão: a exposição solar em horários seguros, com métodos de proteção adequados e uso correto deve ser estimulada, fazendo-se necessário intensificar campanhas de prevenção do câncer de pele e fotodano.
ANÁLISE EPIDEMIOLÓGICA DE ÓBITOS EM PACIENTES COM DENGUE EM CASCAVEL-PR NO PERÍODO DE 2015 A 2019

Published: October 2020

Introdução: A dengue é a mais relevante arbovirose que afeta o homem e tem se tornado um grande problema de saúde pública, especialmente nos países tropicais, como o Brasil. Uma possível consequência dessa doença é a dengue grave, que representa o pior desfecho se não diagnosticada e tratada precocemente. Objetivos: Analisar dados acerca do perfil epidemiológico de mortes por dengue no município de Cascavel-PR, no período de 2015 a 2019, além de fazer um contraponto com a incidência brasileira de casos de dengue. Metodologia: Neste trabalho foram analisados casos confirmados de dengue através das fichas de notificação compulsória fornecidas pela Secretaria de Saúde de Cascavel-PR. Resultados e discussão: Foram notificados 3.492 casos de dengue no período de 2015 a 2019 e identificados 4 óbitos, dos quais 3 ocorreram em 2019, que refletiu o ano com maior taxa de letalidade (0,17%) apresentando índices maiores que a média nacional. Conclusão: Observou-se que Cascavel-PR seguiu um mesmo padrão de incidência de casos de dengue quando comparada com a incidência nacional. Apesar disso, constatou-se maior taxa de letalidade em Cascavel-PR quando se comparada com os níveis nacionais.

Febre de origem indeterminada é definida como temperatura corporal maior ou igual a 38,3 °C com duração mínima de três semanas sem um diagnóstico estabelecido, apesar de investigação apropriada. A febre de origem indeterminada permanece um dos mais desafiadores diagnósticos em medicina. A epidemiologia é ampla e dependente da etiologia, idade, geografia, exposição ambiental e status imune. As doenças infecciosas são as causas mais prevalentes em países em desenvolvimento, enquanto que em países desenvolvidos, as causas mais prováveis são devido às doenças inflamatórias não infecciosas. Descreve-se o caso clínico de uma paciente de 31 anos de idade, com quadro febril inexplicado instalado após uma semana da realização de cesárea de emergência. Nos exames laboratoriais apresentava leucocitose com desvio à esquerda, com hemocultura e urocultura negativas. Ao ultrassom pélvico transvaginal: Útero aumentado de volume com fundo ao nível da cicatriz umbilical. Cavidade endometrial com pequena quantidade de líquido e coágulos, sem conteúdo expansivo no interior, endométrio fino e ausência de coleções. A paciente foi submetida à extensa avaliação clínica e cirúrgica em busca do esclarecimento da origem do quadro febril, porém este permaneceu inexplicado.
SUPLEMENTAÇÃO GESTACIONAL DE PUÉRPERAS INTERNADAS EM UM HOSPITAL PARTICULAR NA CIDADE DE CASCAVEL – PR

Published: October 2020

O uso de suplementos como ferro, ácido fólico, vitamina D, ômega 3 e polivitamínicos durante o período gestacional, muitas vezes, faz-se necessário, devido a um aumento na demanda de micronutrientes, pois ocorrem transformações anabólicas de forma desigual durante todo o período. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo verificar o uso da suplementação durante o período gestacional de puérperas internadas pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), em um hospital particular na cidade de Cascavel – PR. O estudo foi realizado nos leitos da maternidade, durante o mês de agosto de 2019, após aprovação pelo Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa, com 60 puérperas. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um questionário, também consultando os prontuários médicos e as informações presentes na carteira da gestante, e posteriormente tabulados no Excel. Observou-se que, da população amostral, 90% eram adultas e 51,7% trabalhavam, mas apenas 35% apresentavam carteira assinada. Em relação ao grau de escolaridade, foi observado que dez mulheres apresentavam ensino superior; quarenta e três, ensino médio; sete, ensino fundamental, porém, algumas não concluíram os estudos. Além disso, verificou-se quanto ao uso de suplementos que 58,3% usaram ferro; 46,7%, ácido fólico; 18,3%, multivitamínicos; 6,7%, ômega 3; e 5%, vitamina D, sendo que 25% não suplementaram. Com isso, observou-se baixa suplementação entre o número de puérperas, necessitando de acompanhamento nutricional e novas políticas de saúde pública a fim de evitar carências nutricionais.

Pesquisa Somático-Performativa: Sintonia, Sensibilidade, Integração
Authors: Fernandes Ciane
Published: October 2020

A partir de procedimentos da dança-teatro, da performance, da Análise Laban/Bartenieff de/em Movimento, e do Movimento Autêntico, busca-se configurar caminhos abertos de investigação criativa, contaminada pela natureza pulsante da cena. No contexto somático-performativo, pesquisa é processo, experiência, integração, e transgressão. Assim, aproximamo-nos de forma fluida, flexível e inclusiva de uma metodologia autônoma, imprevisível e, por isso mesmo, coerente. Palavras-chave: Educação somática; performance; pulsão espacial.
